"Don't worry, I will do a thorough investigation and find out one by one. Whoever sucked the blood of the common people, and whoever embezzled the court's money, I will make them spit it out!"

"I'll give you a good life, but then don't live it!"

"Where is Jinyiwei!"

The emperor drinks cold!

"Subordinates are here!"

Li Ruolian stood up and clasped his fists in response.

"This matter is under the full authority of Lord Yasukuni, and Jinyiwei is under the command of Lord Yasukuni, with the assistance of the General Staff. Thoroughly investigate this matter!"

"As long as anyone involved in this matter, no matter what the official position or rank, don't have any scruples, just do what you want!"

The words of the Son of Heaven are like sharp knives, piercing the hearts of civil and military officials one by one.

Everyone knows that the Son of Heaven is going to get serious!

But what is the scene of the emperor's real action...

In this capital city, the head rolling happened again and again, which is already very clear proof.

At this moment, many courtiers already had water stains on the ground where they knelt down, and the pungent fishy smell slowly lingered around the hall.

"The minister leads the order!"

The Duke of Yasukuni and the Commander of Jinyiwei stood up, and the clanging sound could be clearly heard.

The two cabinet elders looked at each other subconsciously. In the end, they both sighed, and then silently lowered their heads.

The ruling system of the pre-Ming Dynasty that they have painstakingly demonstrated, in this Daheng, where they are running desperately forward, are finally out of place, and finally ushered in an inevitable fate...

After the court meeting ended, the officials dispersed, but most of them were ashamed and ashamed.

A court meeting, a storm that shook the sky, suddenly took shape, and it came too unexpectedly. Even now, there are still many courtiers who have not reacted.

This turmoil was formed instantly under the will of the Son of Heaven. Obviously, within a few days, it will completely and thoroughly sweep through the entire Daheng world from the capital.

Heads rolling, mountains of corpses and seas of blood!

The news in the court, after the end of the court meeting, naturally spread rapidly to all parts of the world through various channels.

I don't know how the people of the world will react, but this capital city, which has almost never been peaceful these years, is in turmoil once again under this news!

In this era, this era that has just changed from the pre-Ming to the Daheng, the corruption is still there, and the unspoken rules of inertia are still rampant.

Looking at the whole world, there are many officials who dare to say that they are not greedy, and those who hold high the reputation of being an upright official, but secretly, how many people are really not greedy?

It is nothing more than a question of greed for more and greed for less.

Some are greedy for livelihood, some are greedy for satisfying selfish desires, and some are purely greedy for the sake of greed.

The boundaries among them are obviously difficult to distinguish under this overwhelming trend.

Who can guarantee that I will be able to escape from the emperor's butcher's knife by only greedy for a hundred taels of silver due to my livelihood.

Who can guarantee that I will be able to safely survive this overwhelming trend and save my family's lives after being greedy for tens of thousands of taels of silver?

Under the butcher's knife completely dominated by Wu Xun and Jin Yiwei, these literati have no room for clarification, nor can they win any relationship, and no one can guarantee their wealth and life!

The nine gates of the capital are strictly sealed off and guarded by the emperor's forbidden army. It seems that the entire capital has become a huge urn!

And they are the ones in this urn!

The Son of Heaven held the knife, and was about to lift them out of the urn one by one.

The family was destroyed, the family was ransacked and the family was wiped out!

For many people, it is already a fact that is close at hand and must happen.

People's hearts are turbulent and frightened, but under the emperor's careful sealing and control arrangement, it can only turn into endless despair.

In desperation... waiting for the family to be destroyed!

Chapter 475 Everything is doomed... (3000)

"Master, just sent someone out to inquire about it. Although the Nine Gates of the capital have been sealed off, no one is prohibited from entering and leaving. There are many officials who have left with their families behind. Let's go too!"

"Yes, yes, let's go, let the servants pack up, let's leave the capital first!"

Zhang Guizhang, a member of the criminal department, felt relieved, and gave orders impatiently.

"Can't go!"

At this moment, in the corridor in the courtyard, a handsome young man in green clothes suddenly spoke out.

"Son, it's life and death, so don't get involved!"

Zhang Guizhang exhorted with a helpless face.

"Father, tell your son exactly how much you have been greedy!"

Zhang Huangyan stared at Zhang Guizhang closely.

"Not greedy much..."

Zhang Guizhang was a little ashamed, but he had always taught his son to be polite and upright, but he himself...

"Not greedy much, but how much greedy?"

Zhang Huangyan asked again.

Zhang Guizhang sighed and said helplessly:

"Isn't there a great chaos in the south of the Yangtze River two years ago? My father asked the housekeeper to sell the ancestral property in Ningbo. Unexpectedly, all the money and food were robbed by the bandits on the way..."

"Father's salary is not much in the first place, and the court still defaults on it from time to time..."

"Our family has to live, so we are greedy for some daily necessities. After a year or two, it's only two or three hundred taels..."

"But no matter what, Dad is greedy, he is greedy, and now His Majesty is asking people to investigate, and let Lord Yasukuni be responsible."

"The Duke of Jingguo is as close as a brother to His Majesty, and he obeys His Majesty's orders in everything. We have no place to talk about it..."

"If you don't leave, what else can you do..."

"Can't go!"

Zhang Huangyan still insisted: "Father, although the gates of the city are not sealed, do you think that if His Majesty raises the knife now, people will escape?"

"Those who fled are probably the first batch to be investigated, and then on the way, I'm afraid they will get all the stolen goods!"

"Don't forget, His Majesty also asked the General Staff to assist in this case. With one order, the garrison guards in various places can be easily mobilized."

"In the capital, His Majesty is watching, and Jinyiwei is watching. Even if Jinyiwei is in charge, he doesn't dare to go too far out of line, but outside, that's not necessarily the case. White can make black. Escape from the capital, that is the real place to die without a burial!"

Speaking of this, Zhang Huangyan pondered for a while, and then said: "Father, you are only greedy for a little money because of the needs of life, so it shouldn't be a big problem."

"But under the overwhelming trend, our family is just ants. No one cares. It's normal if we are really taken advantage of."

"Only if His Majesty can notice you..."

"Father is just a small member of the Ministry of Criminal Justice Wailang, how can His Majesty notice it!"

Zhang Guizhang shook his head.

"Father, what do you think His Majesty values ​​most?"

Zhang Huangyan asked suddenly.

"reform!"

Zhang Guizhang's words are conclusive, and he can naturally see this clearly.

"Yes, when His Majesty was still the Marquis of Zhenbei, he was in charge of the Beijing Army, and he was preparing for the reform!"

"Even if Thunder is furious this time, it is necessary to thoroughly investigate the fiscal and taxation, it is also to clean up the corruption left by the previous Ming Dynasty and prepare for reform."

"Father, you can play the reform, check for omissions and fill in the gaps!"

"At present, in the court, and even in all parts of the world, even the first and second ministers of the cabinet have not yet spoken out for the reform policy!"

"Father, you are the first to speak out, and you are still a scholar. The first to speak out will definitely attract His Majesty's attention."

"So, Dad, you should be fine!"

"Can……"

Zhang Guizhang was a little hesitant, even if he had no more land left, even if he was living in poverty, but this reform...

But dig their roots!

"Father, why are you hesitating!"

"If it doesn't happen, even if you try to stop it, can it make His Majesty change his mind and not initiate this reform?"

"Impossible. The summary of taxes this time is very clear. Your Majesty does not rely on gentry and landlords to rule the country, but the martial arts forged by Your Majesty!"

"Even if His Majesty cuts off the literary path and slaughters the gentry and landlords in the world, no one can stop it!"

Speaking of this, Zhang Huangyan's eyes lit up, and he seemed a little more excited: "Besides, dad, don't you think that this reform is an unprecedented change!"

"Prohibit land annexation at the root, then guide commerce, and open the sea ban. This is the most fundamental reason that can prevent the change of dynasties for thousands of years!"

"If this strategy is successful, the Zhaowu dynasty is destined to be a prosperous age that has never been seen in the ages!"

"This kind of great world is a great opportunity for scholars of my generation, so why waste this golden opportunity for my own selfish desires!"

Looking at the impassioned appearance of his only son, Kang, Zhang Guizhang also felt secretly.

He naturally knew how excited his son, who had been ambitious since he was a child, was excited when the news of his admission to become a scholar came out.

Almost every day I burn the lamp to study at night, looking forward to the day when I will be admitted as a scholar.

If he doesn't come forward, then their family will be sinners in the Zhaowu Dynasty. The best result may be to be sent to Liaodong, and they will be sinners for generations. Naturally, their future has nothing to do with them.

If you come out in the first place, I'm afraid it will be a boiling infamy in the world, and it will become the worst loss of all!

"Father is going to write the notebook."

In the end, Zhang Guizhang still said this sentence.

Looking at the back of his father walking away in secret, Zhang Huangyan pursed his lips. He knew that he had let his father bear his whole life's infamy.

But...the things that benefit the country and the people, why not cherish the fame before and after the life!

……

The next day, Qianqing Palace.

The emperor daily commanded the playbooks from various places, and the three stacks of playbooks on the table clearly represented the troika that he now rules the world.

The old ministers of the former Ming Dynasty, the major "vassal towns", and various guards.

What the emperor read and commented on were naturally the memorials of the "fan towns" and the guards. The civil servants and gentry who forged the ruling system of the former Ming Dynasty were already extremely disappointed.

He recognized the ruling system of civil officials ruling the country, but he had no expectations for the former civil gentry who built this system.

It needs to be completely reversed, so that this ruling system can keep up with the pace of the emperor, not just blindly investigate and kill, but also reverse the root cause.

Culture needs innovation!

While his thoughts were flowing, Tianzi suddenly chuckled.

"interesting!"

Looking at the playbook in his hand, although the Son of Heaven smiled brightly, the coldness in his eyes became more and more intense.

In this land, there is no dynasty that can endure for a long time, and there is no family that lasts forever.

But there is one family that has been steadily continuing on this land since ancient times, no matter what era it is.

Looking at the memorial from the Confucian Mansion in Shandong in his hand, the emperor's smile became brighter and brighter.

As soon as the fate of Daheng was settled, the Kong family knelt down.

It has to be said that the Confucian Mansion is second to none for its sensitivity to the world situation.

However, he remembered that when Daheng was first established, under the great internal and external troubles, the fate of the country was in jeopardy, and the overthrow was only in the blink of an eye, the Confucian Mansion also held high the banner of opposing Heng and restoring Ming.

Especially when the border gates of Xuanfu were broken and Xuanhua fell, the slogan was loudly shouted, and they even paid for food and money to supply many so-called rebels.

Moreover, at the beginning, there was a secret connection with Hou Jinmeng, and there were swaying between several parties, just waiting for Daheng to collapse, and then kneel down to welcome the new master!

Of course, these operations of the Confucian Mansion were naturally within his expectations.

After all, the long history has clearly explained the integrity of the Confucian Mansion!
