The emperor personally took action and killed Enhai, the leader of the Eunuch Party, and imprisoned all the officials of the Eunuch Party, Dongzhu Party and Houdang!
The entire court was completely new and changed completely.
It has been three years since the emperor ascended the throne, and today he has finally returned his great power!
The people in the capital and the people in the local area have different news channels.
After all, they are common people in the capital. Generally speaking, they can have a distant relative or neighbor friend serving in the palace.
Even if they are not in the palace, some internal information can still leak out in the Wucheng Military and Horse Department and other yamen.
As for whether the relationship between these relatives and friends is strong or not, it all depends on one word anyway.
Especially those cart masters in the carriage shops in the capital, when they talk about the secrets of the court and the palace, they have noses and eyes. They talk as if they stand in the Jinluan Palace every day, or live in the Yangxin Palace. It's the same inside the ritual supervisor.
No matter where the news comes from, millions of people in the capital have plenty of news, and everything is clear!
Therefore, these common people in the capital are also very aware of the fact that the emperor is controlled by the Eunuch Party as a puppet, as well as the fact that the three parties of the Central Eunuch Party, the Dongzhu Party, and the Hou Party are fiercely fighting.
Even though the emperor visited incognito a few days ago, beheaded the evil boy Tong Deliang in the street, and skinned several corrupt officials and stuffed them with grass at the soup kitchen outside the city, which made the people in the capital cheer and cheer, many people knew in their hearts that this was all. It's false.
Maybe it was a move to suppress officials from aristocratic families in the Dongzhu Party under the control of Eun Hai, the eunuch party.
Many people, when chatting after dinner, sympathized with the officials who were killed by the Dongzhu Party. After all, they probably died at the hands of the eunuchs.
Even if they are corrupt officials, they are corrupt officials from the Dongzhu Party. The Dongzhu Party has a somewhat clean reputation and is much stronger than the Eunuch Party.
Besides, if you are greedy for the victims' money and food, you won't skin them on the spot and sell them as grass, right?
It must be a conspiracy by the eunuchs.
For this reason, apart from the thousands of people in Beijing who were present during the first private visit in private, and the hundreds of thousands of victims who were later personally served by the emperor, there were not many people who were truly loyal to the emperor in their hearts.
At most, he had a good impression or sympathy for the emperor.
But now, seeing the emperor leaving the palace, he first displayed Enhai's head and body, and even raised the banner of "Destroy the eunuchs and punish Enhai", as well as the groups of majestic-looking imperial guards. Together with the Yulin Guards and the martial arts guards who looked like martial arts masters around the emperor's dragon chariot, the common people in the capital finally understood that this day had completely changed!
The Holy Son of Heaven, kill Enhai, destroy the eunuchs, and return the great power!
Thinking back to the emperor's benevolent and benevolent nature shown during his two private visits incognito, the common people in the capital were finally completely shocked. Their hearts were shaken, and their loyalty to the emperor began to take root!
What kind of monarch is worthy of allegiance? Mere kindness without strength is absolutely not enough. In this troubled world, everyone has a strong mentality and is looking forward to the emergence of a strong man to lead them out of the sea of suffering.
This sea of suffering is composed of eunuchs who bring disaster to the country and the people, aristocratic families who oppress the people, and vassal towns filled with smoke.
But now, this strong man is right in front of them.
emperor!
"Holy Son of Heaven, Holy Son of Tomorrow!" An old vendor on the roadside kowtowed and cried. He was originally a wealthy businessman selling silk. Just because the eunuch eunuchs took a fancy to his property, they sent people to collude with him. In the name of the rebellious party, his shop was raided, leaving his family broken up and his wife separated, and he changed from a wealthy businessman to a street vendor.
"Long live our emperor!" A young man kowtowed excitedly and shouted. His father was a small official guarding the city gate in the city. Once, the eunuch in charge of the ceremonial department rode through the city gate and failed to dodge in time. , was seriously injured by the galloping horse, and died in depression.
"Good! Good! Good! Well done! Enhai deserves to be killed, and Eunuch deserves to be killed! Long live our emperor!" The cart master of the chariot and horse shop cried with joy, and kowtowed to the dragon chariot on the street. In a few years, that eunuch He tripled the city gate tax and said he wanted to collect money to support his birthday at the age of 9,000. I don’t know whether he did this or not, but he could no longer support his family.
"What a damned eunuch! Thank you Lord for your kindness, and the common people thank you for your kindness! Woo hoo hoo..." A crazy woman was crying and laughing on the street. She was originally a wealthy family in the capital, but someone suddenly broke into her at night a few years ago. He broke into her home and snatched her three-month-old child away, and her whereabouts are unknown since then. Later, I received advice from an expert, saying that there was news from Dongchang. I went to inquire but was beaten out, and I have been crazy since then.
"Long live my emperor, long live long live..."
"Your Majesty!"
"Making decisions for the people..."
"..."
On both sides of the main road in the capital, dense crowds of people were kneeling there, shouting long live the streets. At the same time, people came from all over to see the head of the eunuch leader En Hai.
Under the rule of the eunuchs, the common people in the capital had become numb and lost hope for the future. At this time, the emperor suddenly killed Enhai and wiped out the eunuchs. It was a huge surprise to them!
There are also many people who often listen to the script of "Shunlong's Private Interview" in teahouses and restaurants. Now they are even more shocked to hear the news of Enhai's execution.
At this time, the news was like a gust of wind, spreading throughout the entire capital. People kept getting the news, leaving their work and coming from all over the capital, wanting to see the emperor's majesty and grace with their own eyes. 's destruction.
This is something you can brag about for a lifetime!
Only in the capital can we see such a grand event. When we go back to brag about it to our poor relatives in the countryside, our faces will naturally be very bright.
Most of the millions of people in the entire capital were here at this time.
After the emperor's dragon chariot passed by, many people still felt that it was not enough, so they followed closely behind.
By the time the team carrying En Hai's head arrived outside the south gate of the capital, hundreds of thousands of people had gathered, almost half of the people in the capital!
What surprised everyone even more was that the emperor's car did not go directly back to the palace, but headed towards the area in the south of the city where the disaster victims were gathered at the soup kitchen bureau.
At this time, a total of 200,000 people had gathered next to the soup kitchen bureau outside the south gate. It was just when the soup kitchen was finished to fill their stomachs.
Ever since the emperor suddenly appeared incognito at this soup kitchen a few days ago and skinned a few corrupt officials and stuffed them with grass, the rice porridge these days has been full and even has some oil and water.
The new officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs are obviously much more responsible.
After all, the lessons learned by Xu Jiyuan and others are still there, and the human skins of the three people are still hanging on the flagpole of the soup kitchen.
At this time, what happened in the imperial city had not yet reached the soup kitchen outside the city. The victims and the officials of the soup kitchen were all at peace when they suddenly heard a message coming from the city gate. There was a commotion.
Everyone looked around and immediately saw the emperor's chariot escorted by the majestic Jinyi Guards and Yulin Guards, En Hai's head and body hanging high, and the bloody banner "The eunuchs will destroy En Hai and punish him"!
At the same time, they also heard the story of the emperor's execution of Enhai from the mouths of the Jin Yiwei.
Amid everyone's shocked and surprised gazes, a group of uniformed guards serving as guides immediately surrounded the porridge shed of the soup kitchen.
Several household officials were trembling at this moment, and quickly got down from the high platform and knelt on the roadside.
The emperor's dragon chariot slowly came to the porridge shed.
Immediately afterwards, the curtain of the dragon chariot was lifted, and a man wearing a bright yellow dragon robe walked down from the dragon chariot and climbed onto the high platform of the soup kitchen.
This person was known to all the victims of the disaster and the officials at the soup kitchen. He was Emperor Shunlong!
At the same time, crowds of people from the capital were pouring out of the five huge doorways at the south gate of the capital, wanting to catch a glimpse of the emperor.
The victims present were all looking at the emperor in front of them with surprise and warmth in their hearts.
"Your Majesty, you are worth a fortune. Although the victims outside the city are pitiful, they are complicated. The Zhenbei Army is moving south, and the forces of the Dongzhu Party and the Hou Party are also secretly preparing to move. It is really dangerous to show up so rashly." Pei Zhong At this time, he was standing next to Li Yun, feeling relieved and worried at the same time, and whispered to the emperor in a low voice.
Li Yun smiled slightly and said:
"My dear, you are worrying too much. These are my people. Why should I be afraid of my vast river?"
Then he looked at the nearly 200,000 victims present, as well as the people who were still pouring out of the capital in a steady stream. His inner strength surged, and the sound was like a loud bell, and he said loudly:
"Three days ago, I made a grand wish to all of you. I wish that everyone has a place to live, everyone has food to eat, live in peace and contentment, and be happy and healthy!"
The two hundred thousand victims present were immediately excited, remembering what the emperor said to them that day.
To be honest, no matter whether the emperor's ambition can be realized or not, as long as the emperor tells them personally and has such a sincere attitude, they will be extremely satisfied.
Immediately afterwards, the emperor continued to say:
"Today, I am here to fulfill your wishes! Today, I will kill Enhai, wipe out the Eunuch Party, and imprison officials from the Dongzhu Party and the Hou Party. The disaster of the three parties will be put to rest from now on!"
"These three party officials are all greedy and enrich themselves. They own thousands of fertile fields and countless gold and silver! They are all the people of our Wu Dynasty, and they are the people's blood and sweat!"
"From today on, I will allocate land and houses from the corruption of these three parties to provide relief to the victims of the world! From today on, our Wu Dynasty will be exempted from exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes for three years to rest and recuperate! From today on, I will recruit talents through meritocracy, regardless of high or low. !”
Li Yun's stirring voice, driven by deep inner strength, spread to the ears of the 200,000 victims and hundreds of thousands of people in the capital present.
For a moment, there was silence all around. Both the victims and the people in the capital had expressions of disbelief on their faces.
I couldn't believe what I was hearing.
Even Pei Zhong and Yuan Chengtao did not expect that the emperor would choose to announce such news directly in front of all the people! They all looked shocked.
When the emperor makes a critical promise, once he opens his mouth, he can never go back!
After more than ten breaths of time, I don't know who reacted first and shouted "long live". Immediately, there was thunderous cheers. Hundreds of thousands of people present knelt down like waves and kowtowed!
Waves of pure imperial energy rolled towards Li Yun's Dantian Qi sea. These imperial energy were much purer than before.
Even the Jinyi guards and Yulin guards present completely surrendered to the emperor and were full of imperial energy.
Li Yun only felt warm currents surging in the sea of Qi in his Dantian, driving the spiritual energy in his body to surge.
This is an unprecedentedly powerful spiritual energy!
In an instant, his Haotian technique broke through again and reached the fifth level of Qi refining. He immediately continued to improve. In the blink of an eye, he had touched the sixth level of Qi refining and could break through at any time!
At this moment, a horse rushed out of the city. The knight on the horse had an anxious look on his face. After looking around, he found the emperor's location and rushed over immediately.
When he came to the porridge shed, he quickly whispered a few words into Ji Yunpeng's ear.
Ji Yunpeng immediately went up to the high platform, knelt down on one knee in front of Li Yun, cupped his fists and said:
"Your Majesty, the commander-in-chief of the right army, Han Renlong, led 60,000 elite troops across Xijin Ferry and headed for the capital!"
