But now, this worry is gone.

He listened to Yang Guanguang's words and helped Li Zicheng suppress the man named Zhu Changwu. This must be a credit.

With this opportunity to please his new master, Li Guozhen naturally would not give up. He had now begun to imagine that once the new Dashun Dynasty was established, he could get an official position in it.

Just when Zi Zi was still daydreaming about the beautiful life in the future, thinking that the wealth would remain the same, suddenly the door of the uncle's mansion was knocked open from the outside, followed by dozens of royal guards and a large number of Ming troops wearing mandarin duck battle uniforms. Then he entered and rushed into the house.

When several guards in the mansion saw someone rushing in, they wanted to step forward to stop them, but the next moment the Xiuchun knife was pulled out and slashed on them, causing blood to flow out.

As a result of the incident, the other nurses and servants immediately became more honest. They all lowered their heads and squatted on the ground as required. They were as obedient as they were asked.

This is the face of some people who rely on their power. When their so-called backers and backgrounds don't work, they are far more afraid of death and more timid than ordinary people.

There was such a big commotion in the front yard, and Li Guozhen quickly learned about it.

Li Guozhen angrily led several nursing staff to the front yard. As soon as he showed up, he yelled, "Who are you? You are so bold that you dare to come to my uncle's mansion and cause mischief. Who is the leader?" Yes, arrest him."

The first step was to raise troops to investigate and arrest those who came. Li Guozhen's arrogance was clearly revealed at this moment.

Relying on the emperor's favor for him, when would Li Guozhen put other people in his eyes?

Even the Jin Yiwei is the same. This is just a dog beside the emperor. He can enter the palace to see his master at any time. All you need to do is cry and complain when the time comes, pretend to be pitiful, and show loyalty, and the big thing will be reduced to a trivial matter.

"Are you Li Guozhen?" A voice interrupted his shouting, and Zhu Changwu, wearing a python robe representing the commander, came out.

I had long heard that this person was very favored by Chongzhen. Zhu Changwu came with him this time just to see how arrogant this person could be.

As expected, it is better to meet someone than to be famous. It is really arrogant for people to arrest one of their own.

"Who are you?" Li Guozhen squinted his eyes, as if he didn't take Zhu Changwu into consideration at all.

The other party was wearing a python robe, so Li Guozhen would not have known what it meant. He just said this because he wanted to tell others that his status was higher, and what he wanted to show was that he looked down on Zhu Changwu.

"What's your mother!"

Bang!

A big foot suddenly struck and landed on Li Guozhen's chest without any warning.

The powerful force directly kicked him seven or eight meters away, and then he fell to the ground with a plop.

When he fell to the ground, Li Guozhen was already vomiting blood, his eyes turned white, and he was about to die.

This scene scared everyone in the yard.

Even the Jin Yiwei who thought they knew the commander, their faces were full of shock at this moment.

They knew that their commander was very powerful, but they didn't expect it to be so powerful.

He actually kicked the emperor's most favored minister to death with one kick. This... this was something that I didn't even dare to think about before.

"Uh... I'm sorry, I was so angry that I couldn't hold it back." Zhu Changwu, on the other hand, didn't have the slightest change in his face after the kick, as if he had just done something inconspicuous.

While talking, he patted the cloth boots on his feet. This way he was telling everyone that he thought Li Guozhen was dirty.

"Okay, arrest everyone and interrogate them one by one. Anyone who acts as an accomplice will be killed. Other accomplices will be severely punished in accordance with the law." Zhu Changwu, who withdrew his right foot, waved his right hand and ordered his men to do things.

Li Guozhen was kicked to death. How could the others dare to resist? They all honestly allowed the Ming soldiers to tie them up one by one. As the warehouse of the Li Mansion was opened, a large amount of silver appeared in everyone's eyes. .

At a glance, one can't tell how much silver there is here, but just looking at the quantity, I'm afraid it won't even be worth two million. This result makes Zhu Changwu very satisfied. "The people were taken away, and the valuables were also taken away. The house was sealed and sold."

After saying these words, Zhu Changwu turned around and left, without any awareness of whether he had committed a crime by killing someone just now.

The same scene was playing out in Ge Lao Chenyan's mansion.

Li Ruolian brought people here and also encountered resistance. It's just that the current Jinyiwei is no longer what it used to be. With such a strong leader as Zhu Changwu, they certainly won't take Chen Yan, an old guy, seriously.

After Li Ruolian injured three people with Xiuchun Dao, the others were scared when they saw that Jin Yiwei was serious. Then a large number of Jin Yiwei and Ming troops entered, arresting people and ransacking their homes.

At the same time, the homes of more than sixty officials, including the scholar Qiu Yu and the military officer Jiang Dezhen, were also besieged, arrested, and ransacked.

Such a big movement attracted countless people from the capital to watch. When they saw that the Jinyiwei had arrested these corrupt officials, there were bursts of cheers.

From this point of view alone, it is enough to prove that the people's eyes are sharp.

Those whom the people want to protect may not necessarily be good officials, but those whom the people despise must have problems.

More than sixty officials were arrested at the same time. This news was so huge that it was impossible not to know about it. Like rats crossing the street, Wang Zhixin, Yang Guanguang and others who were hiding in the dark also received the news and couldn't help but look at each other.

They thought about various possibilities, such as that Chongzhen would listen to the suggestions of his ministers and deal with Zhu Changwu.

Or it could be said that Chongzhen would consider the reality and punish Zhu Changwu lightly.

But he never thought that the result would be that Zhu Changwu ordered the arrests, and more than sixty ministers were arrested without missing a single one.

Throughout Chongzhen's reign as emperor, although he had ordered the killing of some officials and even some important ministers, he had never arrested so many court officials at once like this time. At this time, Wang Zhi felt like he didn't recognize Chongzhen.

Yang Guanguang, on the other hand, was obviously more rational. After he received the news, he was speechless for a long time, and then he sighed and said, "Chongzhen really trusts this person named Zhu Changwu too much."

"Yeah, I'm so trusting that I sent out so many ministers but couldn't move him. It seems that I can't use the hands of ministers to kill Zhu Changwu like I did before." Wang Zhixin also quickly understood. Come to your senses.

It's just that people who are not good at literature come to martial arts. Such a result today made Wang Zhixin sigh, this Zhu Changwu must be eliminated, otherwise, they will become very dangerous.

In the Fusi Courtyard of Beizhen, silver coins and various rare treasures were piled up, and Zhang Yi was leading people to make statistics.

In the Jinyiwei dungeon, Sun Chuang, who had just been promoted to Qianhu, was interrogating one by one. Because so many people were arrested that the dungeon could no longer accommodate them, some unimportant people had to be sent to the dungeon in the East Factory.

Zhu Changwu didn't pay too much attention to everything that happened here. As a leader, he only needs to give orders, and someone will naturally do it well. If someone can't complete the task, it's very simple, just replace him.

What does that sentence say? It's hard to find a three-legged toad, but there are not many people with two legs.

After leaving Xiangcheng Bofu, the first place Zhu Changwu went to was the female soldiers camp and found Lou Heyang.

At this moment, Lou Heyang felt as if she was in a dream. Even though more than an hour had passed, she still couldn't believe what was happening in front of her. She couldn't help but be in a daze holding the golden edict in her hand.

"General, the general is here." Chen Yuanyuan led Zhu Changwu who rushed here to the tent and called softly.

"Ah! General." Lou Heyang woke up after being reminded by this, and when he saw Zhu Changwu, he wanted to salute.

"No need." Zhu Changwu waved his hand, and then said: "What's the matter, looking at you so distracted, is Lao Ji looking for a concubine?"

"Pooh!"

Lou Heyang, who was still touched at first, immediately changed his expression when he heard this statement and said: "He dares, I will castrate him."

As soon as he said this, Zhu Changwu's forward steps stopped involuntarily, and he felt awe-inspiring in his heart. This mother-in-law is really a tiger. Hey, Lao Ji, Lao Ji, you have had a lot to endure in this life.

Chen Yuanyuan's face paled at this moment, and she felt very embarrassed, and couldn't understand why the female general, who always seemed to be very elegant in speaking and doing things, could say this.

"Well, you are busy first. I just remembered that I have something else to do." Zhu Changwu saw that Lou Heyang wanted to make a fuss, so he turned around and left, leaving this place of right and wrong first. But as soon as he turned around, Lou Heyang's voice immediately sounded, "Master, please wait a moment?"

"Is there something important? If not, let's talk about it later." Zhu Changwu didn't want to stay any longer because he really didn't want to provoke a woman who was always ready to be cruel to his man.

Phew!

Seeing that Zhu Changwu looked a little scared at this moment, Lou Heyang finally couldn't help laughing. "Sir, my Lao Ji is a good man and will never do anything to make me sorry. I was just joking just now. Don't take it seriously."

Smiling sweetly, Lou Heyang looked like a jade woman from a small family in the south. There was no trace of the tigress' style just now. This made Zhu Changwu have to sigh, women are indeed born to act.

"Oh, of course I know you are joking. I am actually joking with you too." Zhu Changwu stopped leaving. He knew that if he really left now, he would be laughed at by this woman for who knows how long.
