Chapter 259: Order a coffin for me first!
Bei Town Fusi Gate opened, Mu Bin, Qinglong, Baihu and Xuanwu, each led 500 people, and went out of Fishi from Beizhen.
They rushed towards the capital like a wolf and went to the mansion of every Jiangnan civilian in the capital.
In the capital, the sound of horse hooves that shattered the city walls was heard again. All the officials in the capital were in danger!
"What's wrong! What's wrong with this?!"
"In the court today, His Majesty had killed a group of officials against Kaihai. Now how can he kill the embryo of Jin Yiwei again and let out the disaster?!"
"I can't stand it! I really can't stand it! Your Majesty is so harsh. I wait for officials. Who will be willing to sell his life for the Zhu family in the future!"
"Did you make something wrong with Majesty?! It was the scholar and the Zhu family in the world, not the group of Diaomin and the Zhu family!"
"How long has Majesty's ascension, and I have launched several slaughtering operations on the officials and other officials.
"Your Majesty is so cruel and persecutes the officials of the Ming Dynasty. God wants to destroy Ming Dynasty! God wants to destroy Ming Dynasty!"
"..."
Several consecutive massacres in the capital have made officials in the capital boil with resentment.
The first corruption cases, the poisoning case of the late emperor and the smuggling case of the generals had already made all the officials frightened.
The subsequent Tumubao Incident and this Jiangnan smuggling case made hundreds of officials frightened.
In particular, Zhu Youtang had experienced a Tumu Fortress incident, and after returning to the capital, his methods were even more cruel!
The officials of them are even more disgusted. Looking at their eyes, just like the enemy, they are full of suspicion and jealousy.
This time, they stopped pretending and arrested all officials from Jiangnan on a large scale. They acted in an extremely domineering manner, leaving no room for change.
Originally, the Jiangnan region was rich, rich in educational resources, and high talent quality. Many of them were jinshi in the first two lists.
In addition, the people of Jiangnan are united. Under the trend of interests, they hold the group to warm up and carry each other.
This resulted in Jiangnan people accounting for more than half of the senior officials in the capital.
Zhu Youzheng killed all such a stick, but it would directly cause the Daming court to stop!
Many Jiangnan officials, under the intensification of conflicts, harbored resentment towards Zhu Youtang and became disloyal!
...
Beijing.
He Qiao's new mansion.
He Qiaoxin had no sleep tonight and stayed up all night.
He sat in the unlit room, restless and inexplicably agitated.
Suddenly, irritable noise, messy footsteps and bright torches came from outside the mansion, illuminating the room.
Immediately afterwards, the yard screamed in the yard.
He Qiao sighed, and suddenly remembered the afternoon of more than thirty years ago. When he received the news of his father He Wenyuan's death, he was shocked and doubtful.
Maybe at that time, my father's heart should be the same as he is now, right?
He Qiao's new father, He Wenyuan, was a scholar in Yongle for sixteen years. During the orthodox years, he was the right waiter.
In the 14th year of Zhengtong's reign, he was appointed Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Civil Affairs on the recommendation of the great scholar Chen Xun.
In the early years of Jingtai, soon after Zhu Qiyu ascended the throne, he became a book of the official ministry, plus prince Taibao.
He Wenyuan was able to serve as the crown prince's guardian mainly because he supported Zhu Qiyu's change to the crown prince.
During his three years in Jingtai, Zhu Qiyu used a lot of gold and silver to secretly bribe the ministers at the time, asking them to support him in establishing a crown prince.
Among these bribe takers was He Wenyuan, who was rewarded fifty gold coins by Zhu Qiyu.
After collecting the money, He Wenyuan was also easy to do. He once wrote in a book: Father has the son of the world.
With the support of ministers, Zhu Qiyu finally got what he wanted and succeeded in making Zhu Jianji the crown prince.
Later, after the restoration of the Emperor Yingzong, he first exempted Zhu Qiyu's title to him.
After knowing the incident, He Wenyuan was afraid of it and was afraid of being cleared by the Emperor Yingzong.
So he tidied up his clothes, sat down, wrote a poem on oral Zhan rhymes, and then hanged himself.
Even though He Qiaoxin was dead and buried, Emperor Yingzong ordered the coffin to be opened for an autopsy, fearing that there was fraud.
At this time, He Qiaoxin was probably in the same mood as He Wenyuan at that time.
In the room without a palm, he worn the official uniform quietly, and then took out three -foot white crickets and hung it on the beam.
After sighing, He Qiaoxin hung up his neck and kicked the bench under his feet.
The strong suffocation came, and He Qiao started to struggle subconsciously.
Just when his consciousness was gradually blurring, the door was suddenly kicked open, and a large number of royal guards swarmed in.
Jin Yiwei swung his sword and the white silk broke immediately. He Qiaoxin fell to the ground and coughed violently.
"Cough cough...cough cough cough..."
He Qiaoxin breathed the air greedily, and the next moment, a group of Jinyi guards controlled He Qiaoxin.
"He Shangshu, why should you go so hurriedly?"
"Your Majesty has not convicted you yet? What kind of act did you perform in hanging yourself out of fear of crime?"
During the talk, Mu Bin walked into the room and looked at He Qiaoxin with a sneer.
He Qiaoxin lowered his face, his face was ashen, and did not answer.
Mou Bin looked at him with unabashed disgust.
"He Shangshu, it is too easy to die, but it is not as good as life, which is the good show of our Jin Yiwei."
"Besides, you also know the way His Majesty behaves today. Do you want to die alone?"
"Oh, how is that possible! If you die, your whole family will die too!"
"The family is a neat neat!"
That's all, Mu Bin's expression became cold and cruel. "Take away all!"
"Yes, my lord!"
The Jin Yiwei escorted He Qiaoxin out of the room and walked towards the Jin Yiwei's prison.
When he came to the hospital, He Qiaoxin found that his wife and sons were arrested by Jin Yiwei and escorted him with him to prison!
In addition to He Qiaoxin, a large number of Jiangnan civil servants were arrested by Jin Yiwei.
Tu Tong, the censor of Zuodu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, has always been relied upon by Zhu Youtang, and Zhu Youtang also trusted him very much.
When Zhu Youzheng inspected the ninth side last time, he also brought the slaughter and asked him to be responsible for the work of the generals of the Bianbian Town.
But this time, Zhu Youtang arrested all civil servants in the south of the Yangtze River without distinguishing right from wrong. Tu Tong, a native of Yin County, Ningbo Prefecture, Zhezhou, was not spared.
But compared to He Qiao Xin's despair, the slaughter was more calm. Without any resistance, he followed Qinglong to prison.
At the same time, he was arrested.
Bai Ang is a native of Wujin, Nanzhili, and a jinshi of the first year of Tianshun. Zeng Ping has settled Liu Tong rebellion.
There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book!
But later he was transferred to the Ministry of Household Affairs and served as the left minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs.
Bai Ang was not very fault, and Ping Bai encountered this disaster.
But he was also open-minded, and just like Tu Yu, he followed the Jin Yiwei Bai Hu without making any resistance.
There are these open -minded officials, and naturally there are officials with ghosts in their hearts.
And there are quite a few such officials.
Jin Yiwei came to arrest people, and the most common ones were Jiangnan officials who cried and shouted that they were wronged.
Jin Yiwei has been used to this, and naturally has a method of ancestor.
Throughout the night, the wailing and crying in the capital did not stop.
Suddenly, it seemed as if he had returned to the heyday of Emperor Taizu's killing of officials.
A large number of Jiangnan civil servants were imprisoned in the prison of Fusi in Beizhen.
Countless officials in the capital were in fear all night and dared not fall asleep.
Because they were listening, Jin Yiwei arrested all Jiangnan officials in Beijing while receiving a remarkable notice.
Tomorrow, Zhu Youzheng will continue to hold a meeting in the palace.
Over this period of time, the officials in the capital have become quite familiar with Zhu Youtang's habits.
Every court meeting held after chaos in the capital is bound to be bad.
Maybe it was a scene of a crowded, blood flowing into a river.
No one knows whether they can survive tomorrow's court meeting.
Cheng Minzheng, minister of Taichang Temple, was originally from Xiuning County, Huizhou Prefecture, South Zhili, but his birthplace was Hejian Prefecture, North Zhili.
According to Zhu Youzheng's regulations, Cheng Minzheng was not a native of Jiangnan, so he escaped in this arrest.
But when he heard that outside the mansion, Cheng Minzheng was still trembling in fear.
Since his dream was awakened, he kept his mind, and he dared not fall asleep.
At this moment, I heard that the court meeting would continue tomorrow, and my vision suddenly went dark. I staggered two steps and fell to the ground.
It didn't matter if he fell, he scared his wife and son, which was half -dead.
Cheng Minzheng's wife, Mrs. Li, looked anxious and kept shaking Cheng Minzheng, her voice already filled with tears.
"Master! Master, you wake up, don't scare me, Master!"
"Master, have you done something, and the discipline of the law and discipline?! Did you find it by your Majesty?!"
"You talk, master!"
Cheng Minzheng's eldest son, Cheng Si, was even more frightened and cried bitterly, with tears and snot falling from his nose.
"Dad! Wake up dad!"
"Dad! You're not really going to do something stupid, are you?!"
"Dad, if you are stupid, don't bring trouble to me, dad!"
"..."
Obviously, Cheng Minzheng woke up.
He froze in place, recalling the current situation for half a quarter of an hour, his face suddenly filled with sadness.
"Honor, help me to the study quickly."
"Ah? What are you doing, dad?"
Cheng Yan was unknown, but he still obediently followed.
Suddenly, a large group of people followed Cheng Minzheng to the study.
In addition to Cheng Si and Li, there are also some maids and servants of the Cheng family.
Cheng Minzheng came to the desk and wrote a suicide note in a few strokes.
Then he handed it to Cheng Si and said to the servant next to him: "Xiao Liuzi, go to the coffin shop in the alley and order a coffin for me first..."
As soon as these words came out, the room suddenly burst into tears.
The saddest thing for crying is Cheng Yan and Li's.
Xiao Liuzi finally held the cry and wiped his tears. When he was going to the alley to determine the coffin, he was stopped by Li.
Mrs. Li cried so hard that she couldn't help herself and spoke out of breath: "Xiao Liuzi, order... order a coffin for me..."
Immediately afterwards, Cheng Si, who was in tears, also said: "There is also me, order me a bite too..."
