In the eyes of civil and military officials in the court, Chongzhen dared to expel Qian Qianyi and Hou Xun, a total of 117 officials who had deep ties to the Donglin Party, from the palace.

Even the officials were driven out with great humiliation and disgrace, which made all the officials lose their civility and reputation ruined, which was tantamount to declaring war on the Southeast officials and gentry headed by the Donglin Party.

It should be noted that these 117 people are not only leaning against the Donglin Party, but also against the entire Southeast gentry. It can be said that the entire Southeast gentry class is completely in line with the leader of these 117 officials.

And the importance of the southeast of the Ming Dynasty is naturally self-evident. It can be said that 70% of the entire Ming Dynasty taxes are paid by the southeast. Without the southeast taxes, the court's finances will definitely collapse and the Ming Dynasty will be in danger!

Now Zhu Youjian dismissed these 117 officials in one breath, which not only declared war on the Donglin Party members, but also declared war on the huge gentry forces behind them.

However, Zhu Youjian still didn't care at all.

Zhu Youjian had only ascended the throne for less than half a year and declared war on the largest gentry forces of the Ming Dynasty in one breath. Moreover, he was so calm and so calm, which was really impressive.

For a moment, the remaining people in the court were stunned and could not come to their senses for a long time. Huang Liji, Shi Fenglai and other old ministers who had been looking forward to the court and were all bitter, and were deeply worried about the future of the Ming Dynasty.

They did not understand where Chongzhen's confidence came from to declare war on the southeast, and they felt extremely pessimistic about the future.

However, not everyone in the court looked bitter, and some young ministers were quite excited.

"Domineering!" At this time, some young officials who wanted to do something big could not help but murmur: "Your Majesty is really domineering, with Taizu and Chengzu!"

At this time, many people saw hope in Zhu Youjian to revive the Ming Dynasty.

In the past, Zhu Youjian looked like a ruler, and seemed to have done many things, but overall, it did not change much to the overall pattern of the Ming Dynasty. The people were still suffering, the people still had no choice but to live, and more and more people could not survive.

They knew very well that the biggest culprit of the Ming Dynasty fell into such a situation was the greed of the carnivorous class.

If this situation does not reverse, then the Ming Dynasty will gradually die like a frog boiled to death by warm water.

Today, Chongzhen's domineering behavior has undoubtedly been admired by a group of young ministers who want to make a difference, believing that Chongzhen has the resources of a wise ruler and that those who save and revive the Ming Dynasty in the future will definitely be Chongzhen!

Of course, a group of ministers also saw the opportunity to be promoted from the situation where one-third of the vacant situation in the court. For example, Wen Tiren, who was the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites at the time, saw the excellent opportunity to replace Qian Qianyi and enter the cabinet.

Therefore, after more than a dozen breaths in the court, Wen Tiren took the lead in breaking the silence and bowed to Chongzhen and said, "The wise and wise men are not inferior to Your Majesty. Qian Qianyi, Hou Xun and other ministers bear the high expectations of Your Majesty, but they disrespect Your Majesty. They lead all officials to knock in front of the palace and threaten Your Majesty. This is indeed a crime of disrespect.

Your Majesty is magnanimous and only gives them a penalty of half a year or three years of promotion. This is already an opportunity to open their minds and give them a chance to change their minds.

But they were still ungrateful and ignored His Majesty's high hopes. They even threatened His Majesty by resigning from office. They were simply disregarding their king and father. Even if His Majesty beheaded them, it was natural.

However, Your Majesty's heart is higher than the sky and deeper than the sea, and it is just to dismiss their official positions. Your Majesty's tolerance, even the king of Yao and Shun, is that so, I am convinced!"

Damn it!

Wen Tiren is too shameless!

When the ministers heard Wen Tiren's rainbow fart, they all showed contempt on their faces.

Of course they have seen ministers who flatter the emperor in public in front of everyone, but they are as straightforward as Wen Tiren, who is as straightforward as a bare-hearted person, are truly unprecedented. This is really an eye-opener.

Zhu Youjian heard Wen Tiren's flattery and kept his expressionless expression, and couldn't help but blush, but he was indeed very helpful in his heart.

At this moment, he finally understood why Wen Tiren had an average ability in his previous life, but he could always stand firm in the Chongzhen Dynasty, where the cabinet ministers were like a lantern, and remained firmly in the cabinet chief for eight years.

However, it is not entirely true that historical books evaluate Wen Tiren's ability. It should be noted that after Wen Tiren stepped down, the government immediately fell into a state of disorder. The Ming army, which could have beaten the thieves, was beaten by the thieves.

Less than six years after Wen Tiren's death, Li Zicheng captured the city of Beijing and the Ming Dynasty was destroyed. This indirectly shows that Wen Tiren's ability is still good.

Originally, Zhu Youjian was still considering who should be promoted to replace Qian Qianyi, but after seeing Wen Tiren, he already knew it.

So Zhu Youjian nodded slightly to Wen Tiren to show his approval.

Zhu Youjian's praise undoubtedly made many ministers who were changing their minds begin to imitate Wen Tiren and blew up the rainbow farts to Chongzhen.

"Your Majesty, Qian Qianyi and other officials have no respect for Your Majesty. They are all rebels without a king or a father. It's really too cheap for Your Majesty to drive them out of the court!"

"Your Majesty is so magnanimous that it is rare in ancient and modern times. The Qin Emperor, Han, Wu, Tang, Song ancestors are far inferior to Your Majesty. Only Taizu can Chengzu be comparable to Your Majesty."

"I am really lucky to be loyal to Your Majesty in my life. Even if I devote my whole life to Your Majesty and die, I will have no regrets!"

...

Hearing this rainbow fart, although Zhu Youjian felt a little secretly happy, he was not complacent, and waved his hand to stop the ministers' unfinished behavior. Then he looked dark and asked calmly: "So, who else should oppose the twelve imperial edicts I issued?"

Zhu Youjian's words were so gentle that everyone in the court could not help but look at each other. For a moment, everyone looked at me and I looked at you, speechless for a long time.

Judging from Zhu Youjian's expression, it seems that it is no big deal to drive one-third of the ministers away. It seems that driving away a few flies is simply a trivial matter and I don't care at all.

Seeing Chongzhen's tough attitude, how could anyone dare to object?

Even if someone really feels dissatisfied with Zhu Youjian, he doesn't dare to speak out in the court.

Let's take a look, even Ni Yuanlu, who claimed to be upright and upright, was always like a dead person in his actions to dismiss the court and force Chongzhen to resign.

Li Daozheng, who was beheaded and the expelled officials have become a lesson for the past. If they are so unaware of advancing and retreating, then the fate of Li Daozheng and the expelled officials will be their fate.

They finally stood out from the imperial examinations where thousands of troops crossed the single-plank bridge. They worked hard in the court for more than ten or twenty years before they had the opportunity to stand tall. How could they not cherish it?

"Very good. Since everyone has no objection, that's fine. Go to the next issue immediately and expand sea trade." Zhu Youjian nodded with a smile and said.
Chapter completed!
