"The rain transforms the fields and I see you, Your Majesty!"
"Old slave Cao Zhengchun, meet the emperor!"
In the hall, Yu Huatian and Cao Zhengchun bowed to Zhu Youxiao on the dragon throne.
Cao Zhengchun was slightly half a step behind Yuhuatian, and the difference in status between the two at this moment could also be seen from their names.
Zhu Youxiao didn't pay attention to this detail. He waved his hand and looked at Yu Huatian who was covered in blood. A trace of relief flashed in his eyes and he said:
"Thank you for your hard work, my dear."
Seeing the dried blood scabs on Yuhuatian's body, he didn't need Yuhuatian to explain how fierce the battle tonight was.
This made him more determined to reuse Yuhuatian.
There are countless officials in this court, but only the young man in front of him is worthy of his trust, Zhu Youxiao.
"Serving the emperor, I will die even if I don't dare to mention the hard work." Yuhuatian's expression was calm, but coupled with the blood-stained face, coupled with the pungent smell of blood on his body, he looked like an evil ghost crawling out of hell. , can definitely scare away countless people.
In fact, if it was not necessary, Yuhuatian would not want to see Zhu Youxiao just like this.
But the person killed tonight was, after all, the Prince of Ming Dynasty, the famous Tiedan Shenhou, and Zhu Youxiao's uncle.
Yuhuatian wanted to let Zhu Youxiao see what price he had paid to secure his throne.
Moreover, now that Zhu Wuwu is dead, Hulong Villa is finished.
His next plan is to replace Zhu Wuwu and become the true leader of the Ming Dynasty!
If he didn't meet Zhu Youxiao like this, how could he understand his contribution?
Now it seems that the effect is still good.
Seeing Yu Huatian's blood-soaked appearance, Zhu Youxiao was very emotional and waved his hands: "I see Aiqing's loyalty and dedication to me. I am not a person who does not know rewards and punishments."
"The Chief of Ceremonies does not have a person who can hold the seal for the time being. From now on, Ai Qing will take over as the eunuch of the Chief of Ceremonies."
Supervisor of Ceremonies!
Among the twelve eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty, the Si Li Jian was the head of the twelve eunuchs. It was basically equivalent to the position of the harem manager and was in charge of all eunuch institutions.
The most important thing is that the ceremonial supervisor can not only answer memorials and propagate edicts for the emperor, but also control real power, have access to court affairs, and hold some important official positions in the court. It is already the highest position among eunuchs.
Their power and status are not weaker than those of the top ministers in the court, or even worse!
Because the Si Li Jian is also directly under the jurisdiction of the emperor and is a close official of the emperor.
This alone cannot be compared with other officials.
"My lord, Yuhuatian, thank you so much, Your Majesty!"
Yuhuatian suppressed the excitement in his heart and bowed to Zhu Youxiao.
His goal was finally achieved!
The ceremonial supervisor is in charge of the eunuch, the second-grade top eunuch, the head of the eunuchs, and can hold other positions concurrently, which does not affect his continued command of the West Factory.
Therefore, from beginning to end, this position has been the goal he has been pursuing!
Now, it has finally been achieved!
Next to him, Cao Zhengchun had an envious look in his eyes, and was filled with emotion in his heart.
Once upon a time, he was also the eunuch in charge of the ceremonial department, but after all, that was the past.
As the saying goes, one emperor and one courtier. He had served the late emperor before, and now he could still gain Zhu Youxiao's trust and take charge of Dongchang, which was already a sign of great favor from the emperor.
People must learn to be content.
Moreover, he was really scared tonight.
He just wanted to live well and take care of himself, and no longer wanted to fight for power with Yuhuatian.
"Get up, you deserve this. I just hope you don't betray my trust."
Zhu Youxiao waved his hand.
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty. Your Majesty has shown your favor and trust to me, and I will never forget it until my death!"
Yuhuatian said in a deep voice.
Zhu Youxiao nodded slightly and then said:
"How is the situation handled at Hulong Villa?"
Yuhuatian replied:
"The leader of the thieves, Zhu Rugli, has been executed, and all the people related to him have been killed. There are still some Ouchi spies and Shenhou Army generals who were not deeply involved in the case. I have imprisoned these people in the Zhenfu Division Prison and interrogated them strictly. , we will definitely investigate Zhu Rongli’s plans over the years and completely eliminate the hidden dangers of this matter!”
Hearing that Zhu Wuli had died, a trace of loss and sadness appeared in Zhu Youxiao's eyes. Then he shook his head, suppressed his emotions, and said:
"You can figure it out yourself. He is my imperial uncle after all. Try to minimize the impact of this matter."
"Yes, I understand." Yu Huatian nodded.
"As well as the Jianghu forces who helped Zhu Rongli to rebel and the martial arts sects that sneaked into the capital to cause trouble tonight, they will all be found out by me. I will wipe out all nine of their tribes!"
Zhu Youxiao gritted his teeth and said.
Rebellion is a serious crime against the Nine Tribes.
But Zhu Wuwu is a member of the royal family, so it is naturally impossible to kill him.
But if the matter is settled like this, Zhu Youxiao will be unhappy. He plans to attack those Jianghu forces and let the world see what the consequences will be if he dares to go against the imperial court and dare to rebel!
"I accept the decree!"
Yuhuatian continued to hand over the offer without raising any objection.
He also knew Zhu Youxiao's mood at this moment. Since he wanted to kill, then just follow his wishes and let him kill.
Zhu Youxiao looked at Cao Zhengchun again and saw that Cao Zhengchun also had blood stains on his body. He nodded slightly and said, "I have worked hard tonight, my dear."
Finally thought of our home!
Cao Zhengchun was shocked and quickly stepped forward and said: "It is the duty of this slave to serve the emperor."
As he said this, Cao Zhengchun looked at Zhu Youxiao expectantly.
He didn't dare to think about the chief eunuch, but there should be some other rewards, right?
Unexpectedly, Zhu Youxiao just nodded happily and said: "Then, my dear, keep working hard and cooperate with Yuhuatian in the future."
"Is it...ah?" Cao Zhengchun was dumbfounded.
Yu Huatian glanced at him, suppressed the smile in his heart, and said to Zhu Youxiao:
"It's getting late, so I won't disturb the emperor's rest. I'll take my leave now."
Zhu Youxiao nodded slightly:
"Go ahead, my dear, take a rest early and take good care of yourself so that you can better serve me."
"Yes, thank you for your concern, Your Majesty."
After Yu Huatian finished speaking, he bowed again and turned to leave.
Cao Zhengchun was depressed, but he didn't dare to say anything more. After saluting, he also left together.
In the hall, Zhu Youxiao was sitting on the dragon chair, looking tired, looking at the starry sky outside the hall, not knowing what he was thinking.
…
Hulong Villa was razed to the ground, and the iron-courage god Hou Zhu ignored him and executed him. Thousands of people died as a result, and the entire capital was shaken.
But things are far from over.
Taking this opportunity, Yuhuatian plans to cleanse the capital again and eradicate all unstable factors in the capital.
Because he is going to retreat to break through to the Grand Master next, and he does not want anything to happen to the capital during this period.
So he directly issued a death order to blockade the capital. The East and West No. 2 Factory, Jin Yiwei and the Forbidden Army jointly operated to eradicate all the unruly forces in the capital, and at the same time, all the forces and people involved with Hulong Villa were eliminated.
Because Zhu Wuwu had been in the capital for so many years, his network of relationships was complicated. Many ministers in the court had irreconcilable relationships with him. Even some of the three religions and schools in the capital had spies placed by Zhu Wuwu.
If these people are not eliminated, they will always be a destabilizing factor.
Yuhuatian aims to eradicate all these hidden dangers.
If you don't get rid of it completely, you won't seal it!
With the words "Don't seal the knife", the capital once again started a bloody storm.
Before the blood stains on the swords in the hands of the East-West Second Factory and Jinyiwei were dry, they showed their sharpness again and began to wander through the streets and alleys of the capital.
…
In the north of the city, the buildings are full of spring.
This is the largest brothel in the capital, and it is also the largest gold-selling cave in the capital. All kinds of dignitaries and ordinary people will come here to enjoy and spend money.
In a place like a brothel, where fish and dragons are mixed, there will naturally be many spies from powerful forces.
Yuhuatian wants to clear out the remaining forces of Hulong Villa, and the brothel is the place that must be investigated.
But such a trivial matter naturally does not require him to take action personally.
"Bang——"
With a loud noise, the brothel door exploded, and a dense crowd of Xichang Fanzi and Jinyiwei rushed into the brothel.
"The imperial court is doing business. Everyone should stand still. Whoever touches you will die!"
"What's going on? It's so noisy? It's disturbing the uncle's rest." A guest who stayed at the brothel last night heard the commotion outside, opened the door and cursed.
Before the sound could be heard, a scabbard hit his neck hard.
"When you are doing business in the West Factory, kneel down!"
Upon hearing the word "Xichang", the guest shivered with fright, but he held his neck and said:
"What about the West Factory? You can't just hit people in the West Factory..."
choke--
The light of the knife flashed, and the cold blade passed directly through his neck. Dou Da's head fell to the ground, and blood spread all over the ground.
The entire brothel fell silent for an instant, and countless people remained silent.
Ma Jinliang, wearing a python robe with a cold expression, strode forward and said coldly:
"check!"
"yes!"
Numerous fans and Jin Yiwei immediately rushed forward and started searching.
At this time, the brothel’s madam came out and said anxiously:
"Sir, you guys can't do this. This is the property of Shuntian Prefecture Yin and the King of Punishment..."
Ma Jinliang glanced at her and nodded slightly:
"Shuntian Prefecture and the Punishment Department King, right? I heard that imperial prisoners are harbored here. Now it seems that Shuntian Prefecture and the Punishment Department are also involved, which is great!"
One sentence made the old bustard's face change drastically.
But before she could say anything, a member of the Jinyi Guard Baihu had already taken her away with a knife.
The madam's eyes widened and she fell to the ground in disbelief.
Ma Jinliang said coldly: "There is no need to investigate. Everyone here will be arrested and taken to prison for trial. Those who resist will be killed without mercy!"
In an instant, all the Jinyi guards moved and started arresting people.
The brothel that was originally clad in red and green suddenly turned into a hell filled with wailing sounds.
Whether they were guests who came for entertainment or brothel singers, without exception, they were all shackled by the royal guards.
Anyone who resisted was hacked to death.
"I don't want to go to prison, I don't want to go to prison, that place is purgatory on earth." A man who knew the horror of prison yelled crazily, and then punched two guards in front of him who wanted to catch him, and rushed outside. go.
laugh--
A ray of sword light was like lightning, instantly piercing his body.
"You still want to run away, check this guy's background, Yi clan!" Ma Jinliang's face was cold, and his words were even colder.
"There is no proof. Even Xichang and Jinyiwei have no rights over the Yi tribe. I have a reputation and I want to sue you."
When a man dressed as a scholar heard Ma Jinliang's words, his expression changed dramatically, and he shouted righteously.
"Without proof or proof? My words are proof! No rights? Who dares to stop me from doing things in the West Factory? Kill first and then report. With the imperial power, this is the West Factory!"
Ma Jinliang said coldly.
Soon, hundreds of people in the brothel were taken to the Zhenfu Si Chao Prison.
At the same time, Ding Xiu, Tan Luzi, Ji Xueyong and Jinyiwei each led a team of people to thoroughly investigate the possibility of hiding spies from Hulong Villa and some places that were not subject to the imperial control.
Even the homes of many officials were visited.
The whole of Kyoto was restless, and countless people woke up from their sleep, and then they were too scared to sleep.
It wasn't until early in the morning, when the morning light fell on the earth, that the cleaning gradually came to an end.
At this moment, the entire Dongxichang Private Prison and Jinyiwei Beisi Prison were overcrowded. There were too many people arrested, and even these prisons could not hold them. In the end, they borrowed the prison of the Ministry of Punishment to bring the situation under control.
The next step is to start the interrogation, and then follow the clues to catch all the forces involved in Zhu Wuli's rebellion and those who still disobey the court's control and have evil intentions!
