Domineering Daming

"I'm a court official, you guys, are you going to rebel?"

"Zhou Yingqiu has nothing to do with me. I'm just his subordinate. It really doesn't matter. Let me go..."

"Wrong, wrong..."

Six Doors moved very quickly, arresting more than 20 people in less than an hour.

This caused huge waves in the capital, and some people rushed out overnight, wanting to see clearly and find out what happened.Because none of the people from Zhou Yingqiu were arrested by the Ministry of Justice with great fanfare, and these people are very low-key in the capital and have no "partisanship".

Carrier pigeons flew out of Dongchang and headed south in the dark.

Cao Bianjiao has already returned to the palace and took over the imperial guards again to guard the imperial city.

Sun Chuanting also returned to the Ministry of War to preside over the government affairs of the Ministry of War. One of them was in charge of Miyagi, and the other was in charge of the patrol battalion. The entire capital was impregnable.

The six ministers have not yet returned, and the officials in the capital are running around like headless chickens. They all want to find out the news and know the details of the matter so that they can deal with it.

Supervisor of rituals.

Feng Zhu stood in front of Liu Shimin, and said, "Eunuch, Mr. Wang's actions are very fast, and almost everyone who should be arrested is arrested, and Jiangnan is left."

Liu Shimin nodded, and was writing a small note in his hand, obviously it was for Fei Ge to send a letter to Liaodong.

Feng Zhu waited until Liu Shimin had finished writing and handed over the volume to the inner prison guard to take away, before he said, "Eunuch, the trial will start tomorrow morning. Will the case be closed before King Xin returns?"

Liu Shimin said: "That's right, this is the emperor's established plan, there is no room for mistakes, we can't give Xin Wang a chance to intervene, we must make a quick decision!"

Feng Zhu's heart trembled, and he said, "Yes!"

Wang Yuyang didn't sleep. He tried the case overnight, sorted out the files, fixed the evidence, and also reported Lai Zongdao from time to time.

This is a cabinet minister, currently the largest in the capital, and he is also in charge of this matter.

Although Lai Zongdao was reluctant, he clearly couldn't shirk it. The most important thing was to wash off his label in the emperor's mind.

He was at the six gates, listening to the reports from Wang Yuyang and others. The case was too big and too complicated. In the end, the servants of the Ministry of Punishment and Shaoqing from Dali Temple were all called to join the case.

It wasn't until dawn that the general situation was sorted out. The Ministry of Criminal Justice knew how to file a lawsuit, and the Dali Temple knew how to sentence.

But when they were discussing how to decide the sentence, there was another decree from the palace that the case should be presided over by the king of Baoning County, Zhu Gongfu.

This order made Lai Zongdao covered in cold sweat. Back then, someone came from the Governor's Council to instigate a thorough investigation of the Ministry of Officials, and it was the King of Baoning County!

At the same time, an uninvited guest turned and left at the mansion of Baoning County King Zhu Gongfu, but he was completely cold and sat there motionless.

On the table in front of him, there is a verdict, which is briefly written, roughly meaning: Feng Quan, Zhou Yanru, Zhang Fuzhi, Zhang Pu and others will be executed, and the officials above the fourth rank involved will not be guilty of death All of them will be sent to Qiongzhou, and all below the fourth rank will be sentenced to more than ten years in prison!

This is more than that, regardless of whether these people were sentenced to death or alive, all three clans confiscated their property, reduced their citizenship to the people, and distributed them to Liaodong!

In the case, Zhu Gongdi's name was not mentioned, but Zhu Gongdi was cold all over, trembling with fear, and cold sweat dripped down his head!

This is worse than death!

After sitting in a daze for a while, Zhu Gong opened his eyes suddenly, jumped up, grabbed the verdict and ran towards Xihuamen in a hurry.

He knew that if this matter was not done well, he would die!

Inside the six doors, a case has been gathered from investigation to judgment to the top cabinet officials. It is carefully deduced that no one dares to make the slightest mistake or slack off in the slightest.They are all trying to make the case an iron case in one fell swoop, and no one can turn the sky around!

Zhang Fuzhi's confession was placed in front of Feng Quan, and he couldn't help but keep silent. After some bargaining, he still pleaded guilty.

As time passed and the case was gradually clarified, they began to deduce, from going out of the six gates to entering the Dali Temple, and then to the judgment sent out, they were very thoughtful and did not dare to be careless.

Because in addition to judging these people, there is another point, which is to cleanse Zhou Yingqiu!

Liaodong, Shenyang, the sky is dim.

After Zhu Xu finished washing, he pushed open the palace door, Cao Huachun was already waiting.

While moving his body, Zhu Xu smiled and said, "Is there any news from the capital?"

Holding a small note in his hand, Cao Huachun said, "Yes, there is news from the capital that everything is ready and the case will be closed before King Xin returns to Beijing."

Zhu Xu nodded and said: "After this time, those old and young people who miss the past should be cleaned up. It can be regarded as clearing the obstacles for the emperor and clearing the way forward."

Accompanied by Zhu Xu, Cao Huachun asked calmly, "Your Majesty, recently there have been many memorials impeaching the Prince of Xin, thinking that it is against the ancestral system for the prince to concurrently serve as the chief assistant of the cabinet."

Zhu Xu was still moving, shaking his arms and turning his waist. Hearing this, he smiled and said: "In this world, if you say that you violate the ancestral system, it is definitely not the royal family's turn to ignore it."

Cao Huachun responded and said: "Prince Xin should be able to return to the capital at noon today, Your Majesty, when shall we go back?"

Zhu Xu thought for a while and said, "Yang Lin, is Zhu Mei back?"

Cao Huachun said: "Not yet, they traveled quite a distance this time, I heard that they almost lost their way a few times, but they still walked back by relying on the markers."

It has been two or three days. Zhu Xu looked at the overcast sky and said: "Let them stop, the real enemy has not yet expanded here. When Sun Chuanting arrives in Shenyang, the most important thing is to build roads. Except for Liaodong, the north Also, it has to be built all the way to the mouth of the sea, and then it will be centered there, slowly expanding, the huge unowned land, waiting for others to occupy it... It's too wasteful!"

Cao Huachun said "obey the order".He knew that the emperor had been studying a map recently, which was obtained from the red-haired man. It was said to be a "world map". From it, he discovered the northeast of Liaodong. It is still a large wasteland, even more barren than Liaodong. Reclamation is needed!

Zhu Xu started to lower his waist, pressed his palms on his feet, and said, "By the way, is that Jin Zhongshan still there?"

"Still, I have been begging to see the emperor, but my servants have blocked me." Cao Huachun said.

Zhu Xu moved around for a while, then straightened up again, and said with a smile in his eyes: "Well, let him come in, it's time for me to talk to him."

Cao Huachun glanced at Zhu Xu and said, "Observe the order."

Jin Zhongshan came soon, and when he saw Zhu Xu, he knelt down and said loudly: "Your Majesty, please protect North Korea!"

Zhu Xu sat on the chair, put down the teacup in his hand, and said with a smile, "Master Jin, please, but what happened in North Korea?"

Jin Zhongshan knelt there, straightened up, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Lord Yuan Keli doubts the position of the king of our country, and there are also powerful officials in the country plotting chaos. I ask the emperor of Ming Dynasty to protect North Korea!"

Zhu Xu understood and knew the crux of the problem.

To put it simply, the current king of North Korea is the son of the old king of North Korea, but after the death of the old king, his concubine succeeded to the throne with power and was recognized by the Ming Dynasty. With the support of a group of people, they launched a mutiny, killed the elder brother and seized the throne, calling it "anyway".

This incident caused a violent shock in the Ming Dynasty, because at that time the Ming Dynasty was engaged in a "national struggle", and such things were naturally not allowed by the courtiers.As a result, the Ming government and the public hated the newly-elected king of North Korea. If it hadn't been for the fact that Hou Jin had already become a powerful man at that time, he might have sent troops to attack him.

Yuan Keli, who was in Dengzhou at that time, was in control of North Korea. When he heard about it, he was furious. He wrote to Emperor Tianqi, saying, "It has been 15 years since Li Hun attacked the Juewai vassal, and it is here. Divide, how can the crown and shoes be reversed. Even if the fruit is not Dao, it is also appropriate to listen to the concubine's performance, and wait for China to change it. Xizhi used his ministers to usurp the emperor and his nephew to abolish the uncle. When the crime is condemned, it is to strengthen Wang Gang."

To put it simply, it is the "anyway" king of North Korea, Li Ji, who has no respect for elders and no ethics.

From this point of view, from the perspective of the Ming court and the public, although Li Yu is now considered the king of North Korea, he is "illegal" and has no support. Daming can abolish Li Yu at any time!

Now the key point is - after Jin was wiped out, Daming has this ability, and North Korea is worried.

This Jin Zhongshan had been asking Zhu Xu to ensure the "King of Joseon" before, but in fact he still asked Zhu Xu to recognize Li Zhen's throne as "legal", and at the same time ensure that Li Zhen can pass on the throne safely and will not be usurped again!
