Chapter 87 Tiqi appears in four places
Zhu Houzhao ignored Li Dongyang and only ordered: "Send Li Dongyang to prison for the time being and keep him under strict supervision. I will issue a special order for execution at that time!"
With that said, Zhu Houzhao looked back at him and looked at the officials present, and immediately ordered: "Draw up the decree to add Xu, the Minister of War, to the cabinet, move Jiao Fang to be a bachelor of Wenhua Palace, Xu Jin to be a bachelor of Wuying Palace, and move Xu Jin to the British Gong Zhang Mao immediately placed a siege on the capital! No soldiers or civilians were allowed to leave the city to prevent the rebels from escaping!”
Zhu Houzhao said and then ordered: "Moreover, the Jinyi Guards Guo Rong, Dongchang Ma Yongcheng, and Xichang Gu Dayong mobilized troops to capture and execute traitors. At the same time, Shao Daxia was strictly investigated. He was wanted by the Ministry of Punishment and offered a reward. Capture this person, and once the identity of this person is found out, his ten clans will also be killed. If the troops are not enough, troops and horses can be temporarily borrowed from the regiment camp
The Taiping Marquis Zhang Jie, the Royal Horse Eunuch Gao Feng, and the Royal Taxation Bureau Director Xu Jing led the soldiers and the taxation corps to search the house. All proceeds from the house raids belong to the Royal Taxation Bureau, and nothing should be left out! All properties, properties and shop population are registered and temporarily belong to the Royal Taxation Bureau! ”
Wang Yangming led the Juesheng Guard commander to escort the Shaanxi patrol censor Lu Zhong and the military attachés on duty in Guyuan to Beijing! Yang Yiqing, the governor of Shaanxi, was ordered to assist. Anyone who dared to protect him would be punished for treason! ”
The order was sent to Fengyang to stay with Zhang Yong, and he immediately took Liu Jian, Xie Qian and others to Beijing for trial! No mistakes! ”
Zhu Houzhao issued a series of decrees, most of which were naturally to prepare for the disposal of Liu Jian, Wang Yue, Li Dongyang, Xie Qian and other rebels, and the last decree was for the people of Guanzhong.
Although Zhu Houzhao now only knows that the people in Guanzhong were murdered by the Tatars, he can guess without thinking that the murder of the people in Guanzhong must be related to Li Dongyang. Otherwise, how could the massacre of the people happen at the same time that Wang Shu and his team were massacred? The fact that the Tatars were able to easily enter the customs and go deep into the interior to massacre the people and then leave calmly only shows that the powerful local officials in Shaanxi not only colluded with Li Dongyang but also colluded with the Tatars.
The only officials with real power in Shaanxi now are Governor Yang Yiqing and Inspector Lu Zhonghe. After all, the guarding eunuch has not yet taken up his post.
Now, Zhu Houzhao learned from Ma Yongcheng that Yang Yiqing helped them escort Zhang Yu to Beijing, which eliminated the suspicion of Yang Yiqing colluding with Li Dongyang and the Tatars.
Therefore, Zhu Houzhao could only suspect that Lu Zhonghe was colluding with Li Dongyang and the Tatars, so naturally he had to arrest Lu Zhonghe and others into the capital first.
"Obey!"
Ma Wensheng, Liu Jin and others hurriedly bowed and responded.
Soon, the entire capital once again became like boiling water boiling to 100 degrees. From the palace to the outer city and even extended to the capital, the officials and soldiers who formed the entire empire's violent machine were busy arresting people. Those who arrest people, those who search their homes, those who kill people kill people!
The emperor was so angry that he laid down millions of corpses. Emperor Zhu Houzhao of the Ming Dynasty officially started his brutal mode!
The twenty officials killed just now were just the beginning.
And now comes the main event!
The first was a group of Qingliu civil servants who were taken to prison.
This group of Qingliu civil servants is the real power network of the three cabinet ministers. Many of them are even Kedao Yanguan and Hanlin Ci ministers. They are the backbone of Qingliu and the main force that the three cabinet ministers have always controlled the court.
Executing them now will naturally help to eliminate the power of the three cabinet ministers and lay a good foundation for the New Deal.
Therefore, Zhu Houzhao first targeted this group of civil servants.
Gu Dayong reported at this time: "Your Majesty, this Hanlin Academy lecturer is Hong Rui, Xie Qian's favorite disciple, and the supervisory censor Liu Yu is Liu Jian's favorite disciple. They are the same as Chen Yuanren who was beaten to death before. The leaders of the civil servants are the most abominable! Xichang has also found out a lot about their crimes, such as indulging slaves to commit crimes, seizing people's land, and killing people, there are countless, I have proof here!"
< br>
As Gu Dayong spoke, he handed Zhu Houzhao a stack of confessions about the two people provided by Xichang.
Zhu Houzhao looked at them and saw that they were all thumbprints. There were still tear marks on the paper. It was obvious that the sufferer was also deeply persecuted by him, so he said: "Then these two people will be divided into five pieces, and the rest will be executed together! That's it." ! ”
Gu Dayong took Zhu Houzhao's order and hurriedly led a group of officers and soldiers to the imperial prison first. At this time, the Qingliu civil servants who were imprisoned in the imperial edict regained their courage. Among them, Hong Rui, the editor of the Hanlin Academy, was the prime minister of the Imperial Academy, and his father was Hong Zhong, the governor of Guizhou. He was even more confident and only comforted the others. The official said:
"Don't be afraid, everyone. Although His Majesty dotes on treacherous ministers and does not hesitate to kill Mr. Chen and others, and now he has taken us to prison, Hong believes that the courtiers outside will not abandon us! They will definitely intercede on our behalf! ”
"What Hong Shitao said is true. Although we are forced to go to jail, the court officials outside will not ignore us. Even if they ignore us, the worst possible outcome is to be dismissed from office. If we join in the same deeds, it would be a good choice to be dismissed from office and returned to our hometown!"< br>
Supervisory censor Liu Yu said.
At this time, Gu Dayong led a group of officers and soldiers into the imperial prison, and directly ordered Hong Rui and others: "Open the door!"
Seeing this, Hong Rui couldn't help but smile at Liu Yu. He thought that the courtiers had finally forced his majesty to release them, so he became a little proud, thinking that the emperor could not do anything to these high-ranking civil servants like him in the end.
However, after the door opened, Gu Dayong said again: "Handcuff them all, put on prison clothes, and take them to the execution ground. Especially Hong Rui and Liu Yu, their hands, feet and necks must be shackled!"
Hong Rui was shocked, thinking that Gu Dayong wanted to lock up people like himself for trial, so he couldn't help shouting: "We are all gentle people, why do you chain them with iron chains? It is really an insult to gentle people, you don't need to lock them up, We will go to trial!”
"A group of rebels and traitors have the nerve to claim to be gentle, they are just people without kings and fathers, take them down!"
Gu Dayong yelled, and the officers and soldiers came over, shackled Hong Rui and others, and dragged them out of the prison.
Hong Rui and others were all literati, so naturally they were not as strong as the officers and soldiers and could not struggle. They were led to the execution ground like pigs and sheep.
"Hateful! Really hateful! I didn't expect that the traitorous eunuchs are so powerful. Now they not only put us in jail, but also humiliate us like this. Now it seems that they are forcing us to admit that we are rebels. This is to force us into prison. Desperate situation! ”
Liu Yu couldn't help shouting as he spoke: "Everyone! We are all a generation of pure people. How can we allow these turbid currents to insult us? Don't resist to the end and don't give in to evil!"
"Yes, we are all loyal people, how can we be insulted by them!"
Hong Rui also agreed, and was even more determined to scold Liu Jin later. Since the emperor was not present anyway, he could still use this opportunity to invite people to his name, and since he was the son of a high-ranking official, he didn't have to worry about being beaten to death. Otherwise, my father’s disciple Gujiu will not agree! Moreover, the emperor only said that Ma Wensheng could not be scolded, but he did not say that Liu Jin could not be scolded.
Not only Hong Rui thought so, but Liu Yu also thought so, and had even thought of how to curse Liu Jin.
But when they arrived at the execution ground, Liu Yu and Hong Rui found that there were no officials from the Sanfasi, Jinyiwei or Dongchang in the entire execution place. There was only one inner court official, Da Yonggu, a number of officers and soldiers, as well as ten horses and cavalry on horseback.
"Prepare for execution!"
Gu Dayong looked at the sundial and gave an order. Then, several executioners came onto the execution ground one after another and stood at the designated position. At the same time, the ten cavalry also appeared on horseback in the center of the execution ground!
No matter how stupid Hong Rui, Liu Yu and others were, they could still figure out what this was going to do. They all panicked immediately, and Hong Rui even shouted: "Wait, what are you doing! Are you trying to kill us?" ! You are committing a lynching. We want to see your Majesty! My father is the governor of Guizhou, and my mentor is Xie Gefu! "
