These twenty-three people are not all little shrimps.

Yushi Zhongcheng, the second-in-command of the Yushitai, is on the same level as the Vice Minister.

A doctor from the Ministry of Justice or a doctor from the Ministry of War, who can enter Beijing and work in the center of power, which one does not have a strong backing?

In addition, there are also many directors of key yamen.

Twenty-three people were killed, but there were still many who were punished for neglecting their duties.

In the eighth year of Jingkang, there has been relative peace for many years, and the total population has exceeded 100 million.

The number of officials is approximately 500,000.

500,000 people are selected out of 100 million, and these 500,000 people are the top class of society.

Countless people study hard day and night in order to squeeze into this class.

Even so, it takes a lot of effort to get in.

And once you step in, you still have to go through countless ups and downs before you can go up.

To ordinary people, a county magistrate is a high official.

Therefore, to them, the people killed outside the city today were all high officials!

"I don't want to die!" Zhuang Zaiqing, a doctor in the Ministry of Industry, shouted desperately. He cried bitterly, and tears fell down his face in the heavy rain.

"I don't want to! Your Majesty! I was wronged! There was a traitor who framed me!"

"Your Majesty! I just made a mistake that all officials in the world make! Your Majesty, please forgive me!"

"..."

At the execution ground in front, the knife fell and the gate broke Zhan Dafang's waist.

Zhan Dafang did not die immediately, but lay there in pain, with the expression on his face distorted.

This scene made more people go crazy with fear.

Just as Zhuang Zaiqing was wailing crazily, the head of Liu Yuan, the right-cao chief of the household department next to him, was chopped off with a knife.

The head rolled into the puddle and floated in the puddle, facing upward, with its eyes wide open and pale as reflected by the lightning, as if staring at Zhuang Zaiqing.

Zhuang Zaiqing's face was spattered with blood, which was immediately washed away by the heavy rain.

The ground was stained red.

Zhuang Zaiqing was so frightened that he cried bitterly: "I don't dare anymore! I don't dare anymore..."

No one paid attention to him, and the executioners around him all watched this scene indifferently.

After killing Liu Yuan, the executioner walked up to Zhuang Zaiqing.

This doctor from the Ministry of Industry was living a life that was beyond the reach of countless people yesterday.

"Your Majesty! I support the New Deal..."

These were Zhuang Zaiqing's last words, and his head rolled into the puddle, falling together with Liu Yuan.

It can be said that since the founding of the Song Dynasty, there has never been a Zhao official who killed so decisively.

The scholar-bureaucrats of the Song Dynasty prided themselves on being the most noble group of people in the world besides the royal family.

But it was a certain group of people who were trampled and crushed under Zhao Ning's feet.

Noble?

Speculation?

As long as you are caught by me, it doesn't matter whether you supported the New Deal before.

Amid desperate screams, heads were chopped off one by one.

The other three people were all cut in half.

When it was getting dark, Cai Mao waited for Zhao Guan's family in front of Wende Hall.

The rain slowly stopped, and a full moon hung in the sky, shining silvery white down, making the water drops on the trees crystal clear.

"Ms. Cai." Zhao Ning walked over from the front.

"Official family."

"What do you want from me?"

"It's about Zhan's big plan."

"Didn't Zhan Dafang already ask for help?" Zhao Ning asked deliberately.

"The implications of this matter may be relatively large, and I still have something to say to the officials."

"Let's go in and talk."

Zhao Ning intentionally interrupted Cai Mao's words before.

In fact, the monarch and his ministers knew it well.

How could Zhao Ning not know what Cai Mao wanted to say?

"Old and cunning" is used to describe Cai Mao.

Zhao Ning sat down and said, "Just say whatever Mr. Cai has to say."

"Your Majesty, if this matter continues to be investigated, I am afraid that the current new policy will be shaken."

"how do I say this?"

"Isn't Zhan Dafang an official of the New Deal?" Cai Mao said, "There is also Zhuang Zaiqing, they are highly recommended by Qin Xianggong!"

The core of Cai Mao's words is the last sentence: They were recommended by Qin Xianggong!

While Qin Hui was away from the capital, it was obvious that Cai Mao planned to stab Qin Hui in the back several times.

Zhao Ning already fucking knew that Cai Mao was going to say this.

"What Mr. Cai means is that Qin Hui was behind all this?"

"Xiangong Qin is loyal to the country, how could he do such a despicable and shameless thing? I am just worried that if the investigation continues like this, more people recommended by Qin Xianggong will be found." Cai Mao's tone was sincere, and those who didn't know thought he and Qin Hui were the same.

Forget the friendship.

While he was talking about Qin Hui's loyalty, he also said that more of the people involved in the case were Qin Hui's people.

"Then who does Cai Xianggong think he will find next?"

"How do I know this? I'm just worried that I won't be able to control it."

You might as well just say that you will find out about Qin Hui's son!

"It doesn't matter, I have always been impartial and impartial. If the law is not strict, the orders will not work!" Zhao Ning said calmly.

Cai Mao couldn't tell what the Zhao Guan family's attitude was.

"Your Majesty is wise, I feel ashamed every time I think about not being able to share your Majesty's worries."

"It's getting late. Mr. Cai should go back and rest."

"Old minister, please retire."

After Cai Mao left, Zhao Ning fell into deep thought.

The Qingzhou case involves Han Shizhong. Is it as simple as dealing with Han Shizhong?

In fact, Zhao Ning knew many things in his heart.

He even thought about killing Qin Hui immediately, but then he thought about it, Qin Hui is dead, is Cai Mao better than Qin Hui?

He won't do anything behind his back?

And He Li, who sat in the political hall and dozed off all day long, didn't he secretly take sides in private?

The current structure of the power center needs to be shaken up!

Zhao Ning already had plans in mind.

On May 18th, just as the political turmoil in Tokyo continued.

Li Cui's army in Qingyuan Prefecture entered a state of strict defense.

Noon on May 18th, Fucheng.

Yue Fei had just received an order from the Military and Political Council, and he summoned Yang Zaixing.

"Yang Zaixing, I reported to the imperial court before, and the Military and Political Council issued a document, and the officials personally pardoned your crimes. I hope you can join the army and serve the imperial court." Yue Fei said earnestly.

"Thank you very much, Yue Shuai. Of all my virtues and abilities, I let Yue Shuai take the risk to intercede for me."

"I cherish my talents. The world is not peaceful nowadays. The gold thieves are causing chaos and the Xixia thieves are determined to die. If there are more talents like you, the people will suffer less. Why should I care about taking some risks?"

"Shuai Yue is a righteous man, I am willing to sacrifice my life for him!"

"No! You should shed your blood for the imperial court! For the people of the world!"

"yes!"
