There were tens of thousands of victims including the accompanying victims, but they were all silent.

Being watched by the crown prince like this, Meng Fang and the others felt uneasy, and cold sweat broke out on their foreheads.

They knew what they had done, so they were naturally prepared to cover it up.

But he didn't think that Zhao Huan was so disregarding the dignity of the scholar-bureaucrats that he let them worship him like this.

Under normal circumstances, civil servants do not need to kneel down when they see the prince, they only need to bow down.

Bow salute requires straight legs and upper body nearly [-] degrees parallel to the ground.

You can just get up as soon as you see the ceremony, and it won't be uncomfortable.

At this time, Zhao Huan didn't say no to courtesy for a long time, and many people began to struggle.

In a short while, someone's legs were shaking.

In fact, it is better to kneel down.

It's really uncomfortable to kneel on the ground for a long time, but it saves effort. It's easy to kneel for three or two hours, at most the legs and feet are numb.

It's just that the prince didn't say anything, even if he moved a little to relax his muscles and bones, he didn't dare.

The prince on the horse had no expression on his face, he just stared at the officials, obviously wanting to catch the early bird.

Plop, a fat official fell to the ground.

Although his face was on the ground and his nose was bleeding profusely from the fall, the official did not dare to cry out the pain. He quickly gritted his teeth and got up, knelt down on the ground, and said: "Your Highness, forgive me, I have been doing disaster relief for several days, and I am exhausted. .”

"Well, disaster relief is the key now." Zhao Huan nodded slightly, seemingly not paying attention.

Just when the official breathed a sigh of relief, he only heard Zhao Huan's voice change, and said again: "Come on, this man is rude to the emperor and despises the imperial power. Take it down!"

"Here!" Liu Gang led people out with chains and shackles.

Of course, it was prepared long ago, just waiting to get someone.

"His Royal Highness has clearly observed that the minister really settles the disaster victims day and night, so..."

"Noisy!"

Bang~

Liu Gang snorted coldly, smashed the official to the ground with a knife, then took off the official hat, stripped off the official uniform, and took the official seal.

The majestic official of the imperial court suddenly became a white-clothed official.

Of course the official wanted to resist, but he was so dazed that he couldn't move.

When he came back to his senses, he had already been put in shackles.

"Your Highness!" Meng Fang got up and looked directly at Zhao Huan, and said, "We are all court officials, even if the Holy One is here, he can't humiliate us for no reason!

Your Highness did this, but what did the Holy Prince actually do? "

"No reason?" With a sneer, Zhao Huan raised his whip and pointed at Meng Fang, saying: "Changzhou knows that Meng Fang in Zhizhou is not good for disaster relief. He tortured the victims and caused many deaths and injuries. This is an unforgivable crime. Take it down!"

"Here!" Liu Gang looked at him with a sneer.

A trace of panic flashed across Meng Fang's face, and he shouted: "His Royal Highness is part-time Jiangnan Incorruptible Visiting Envoy, and only has the right to supervise and supervise. We are all officials of the imperial court. Even if we have done something, we should pass through the center, and His Highness cannot be caught."

"Heh!" Zhao Huan disdainfully.

Liu Gang was already behind Meng Fang, and he didn't bother to talk to him, so he just kicked the hollow of his knee, knocking Meng Fang to the ground.

Several personal guards swarmed up and pulled Meng Fang into white locks.

Seeing that the prince was so unreasonable and locked up Zhizhou for a disagreement, other officials in Changzhou panicked.

Zhao Huan ignored them, only looked at Liang Hongyu beside him, and said gently, "Go, disarm Changzhou's soldiers and horses."

"Here!" Liang Hongyu responded, leading an army of [-] horses, and surrounded [-] or [-] Changzhou soldiers.

Are you moved?

Donggong's personal guards came, resisting was tantamount to conspiracy, it was an act of ransacking the family and exterminating the clan, who would dare to do it!

Furthermore, the soldiers escorting the food behind have assembled and can rush over at any time, so they dare not move.

Not a moment later, all the soldiers and horses in Changzhou disarmed and squatted obediently on the ground waiting to be dealt with.

Meng Fang was in a hurry.

He is naturally aware of what he did, so he has been busy covering up these few days, so as to fool the prince.

After all, the imperial court gave preferential treatment to scholar-bureaucrats, and it is absolutely impossible to win a prefecture without evidence.

You know, Zhizhou is only a temporary dispatch, and they are essentially Beijing officials.

Just like Meng Fang, his official title is Huixian Pavilion Waiting System, and his job is the Minister of the Ministry of War. In fact, his rank is not low, and the East Palace has absolutely no right to dispose of it.

If you want to dismiss such an official, Zhao Ji must issue an order.

However, Zhao Huan had no intention of reasoning with him.

Zhao Huan took out a booklet from his pocket and read: "Lin Xuan, Zhong Yuan..."

There are more than a hundred names, including high-ranking officials such as Tongpan, Bingcao, Gongcao, county magistrate, and county lieutenant, as well as low-ranking ones such as escorts, cell bosses, and arresters.

More than one-third of the officials present, big and small, were read out, including Wu Jin.

After reading the name, Zhao Huan shouted: "You enjoy the people's fat and people's anointing, but you don't know how to sympathize with the people.

When the natural disasters came, not only did they not provide relief, but they blindly forced and abused the punishments. In ten days, more than a thousand people died, which is a heinous crime.

Today, I will eliminate harms for the people. I will take all the left and right sides with me, so don't leave one of them! "

"Your Highness, this is Meng Fang's instigation, and the minister was also forced to help~"

"Your Highness, spare your life, Your Highness, spare your life..."

"The minister is innocent, Your Highness is clearly aware!"

Those who dumped the blame, those who begged for mercy, and those who pretended to be innocent, many officials shouted endlessly.

Many personal guards didn't care about it, and only under the guidance of Kong Gui, they all took off the locks of their official clothes according to the map.

It was the first time that such a large group of officials had been locked up since the founding of the country, and the others were stunned.
