Chapter Three Hundred and Twenty-Five Everyone, go and see the governor of Chu to seize the house! [
As a result, many officials had no room to display their ambitions and abilities. Under a system like the Ming Dynasty, the emperor was under too many constraints. Even if he wanted to promote officials, he would have to be restricted by the officials.
Constrained by ministries, cabinets, etc.
However, this time, more than one-third of the important ministers in the court were captured, which can be said to have left many important positions vacant.
Although most of these officials have a neutral attitude and are not attached to Chu Yi, nor do they collude with Jiang Mian and others. However, these people are somewhat loyal to the imperial court.
Moreover, these officials appointed by the emperor had actually been reviewed by Chu Yi through Dongchang and Jinyiwei in advance.
Maybe some of these officials have some stains, but compared to the talents of these officials, those stains are nothing.
Therefore, the officials appointed by the emperor this time were all people with outstanding talents, and many of them even jumped several steps to become important ministers in the court.
Although hundreds of officials were removed at once, Zhu Houzhao immediately selected talented people to replace them. Originally, many important department officials were missing, but they were immediately replaced.
Although some positions are still vacant, these vacant positions can be filled slowly, and they will not have much impact on the operation of the court.
The most indispensable thing in the world today is scholars who want to get ahead and enter the officialdom. As long as most of the officials in the court are not emptied out at once and the court cannot operate, then there is no need to worry about having no available officials.
Following Zhu Houzhao's promotion and appointment, these high-ranking officials not only felt relieved, but also felt full of gratitude to Zhu Houzhao.
Especially those officials who originally had low official positions were extremely grateful to Zhu Houzhao. They dare not say that their loyalty points are full, at least they have skyrocketed.
After appeasing all the officials and properly handling the problems left by the arrest of so many officials, Zhu Houzhao took a long breath and looked at Chu Yi.
Chu Yi smiled at Zhu Houzhao. It can be said that all this was arranged by Chu Yi in advance, and Zhu Houzhao was just going through a formality and executing it.
Zhu Houzhao was heard saying to Chu Yi: "Chu Yi listens to the order!"
Chu Yi took a step forward and said respectfully: "I'm here!"
Zhu Houzhao said in a deep voice: "I order you to personally try the case of the Qianqing Palace Fire. No matter who is involved, I grant you the right to kill first and report later!"
Many people's hearts trembled when they heard that Zhu Houzhao beheaded Xu Chuyi first and then played.
With Chu Yi's vicious reputation, even if they didn't have the right to kill first and then report later, they could all imagine that the capital would be devastated this time. Now that Zhu Houzhao has given Chu Yi the right to kill first and then report, they really don't know who will be killed by Chu Yi.
Yi is keeping an eye on him.
Chu Yi took the order and strode out of Fengtian Palace, then left the palace to join Dongchang and the Jinyi Guards.
Previously, in order to avoid alerting others, even if Chu Yi returned to Beijing quietly, he did not even return to Dongchang. Except for a few people in Dongchang, no one knew that Chu Yi had returned to Beijing.
But now that Jiang Mian and other officials have been arrested, Chu Yi naturally has no need to hide anymore.
Taking advantage of the opportunity of the Great Court Meeting, it can be said that many officials involved in the Qianqing Palace fire case have been arrested, but some of them have not yet been brought to justice.
For example, Duke Muzhai Xie Qian, Dingbian Bo Xu Shang and several others, and even some bribed lieutenants and guerrilla generals in the Beijing camp.
In Jiang Mian's mansion, Duke Muzhai was enjoying tea leisurely, and several disciples who came from Jiangnan were accompanying him.
One of the disciples said with a look of expectation on his face: "Teacher, do you think Sir Jiang and the others can force the Queen Mother to speak and choose a crown prince this time?"
Xie Qian, the Duke of Muzhai, smiled slightly, put down the tea cup in his hand, and said with confidence in his eyes: "The Queen Mother has no choice, unless the emperor is resurrected, but if the emperor is still alive, why would he let the Queen Mother come forward, so
This time, the Queen Mother has to agree even if she doesn’t agree.”
A disciple thought deeply and said: "The teacher is right. Mr. Jiang and his family have hundreds of officials and many important ministers jointly submitted the memorial. With such momentum and great righteousness at hand, the Queen Mother has no choice but to agree."
Xie Qian nodded slightly and said: "That's right, so we just wait here for the good news!"
After glancing at a few disciples, Xie Qian said slowly: "This time you will follow my master to the north. I will consider you as my master. I am already old. This kind of support is of little use to me.
, but when the time comes, the teacher will ask the new king for a reward for you, and it will not be in vain for you to wait and become my teacher."
After all, they came with Xie Qian, hoping to use Xie Qian's prestige and connections to one day enter the officialdom, rise to prominence, and protect their family.
Now Xie Qian opened his mouth and promised to help them seek an official position. Naturally, the faces of several disciples showed surprise. Then they all thanked Xie Qian and said, "Thank you, teacher. I will never forget your great kindness!"
Xie Qian sat there, stroking his beard, and accepted the gifts from several disciples with a smile.
As the saying goes, the king of heaven and earth is the master, master, master. Once a teacher, he will always be a father. In this era of strict etiquette, Xie Qian, as their teacher, has the obligation to teach them.
Having received the favor of Xie Qian, as a disciple, you must act accordingly, otherwise you will be disobeying your master and will be shamed by the literati.
Just like Jiang Mian, as Xie Qian's disciple, the two of them are naturally grasshoppers on the same rope. In this case of the Qianqing Palace fire, even if Jiang Mian did not intervene, once the incident happened, Jiang Mian would definitely be punished.
Xie Qian’s involvement.
Just when Xie Qianxu Yi's disciples were prospering in the future, when they left the palace gate, they saw Cao Shaoqin commanding the Dongchang troops and the Jinyi guards waiting outside the palace gate.
Seeing Chu Yi, everyone saluted Chu Yi.
Chu Yi waved his hand, got on his horse, and said solemnly: "Follow me and go get the man!"
As Chu Yi distributed the list of people to be captured, the Dongchang and Jin Yiwei teams left, and finally Chu Yi, Cao Shaoqin and other teams were left.
Then I heard Chu Yi say: "Follow me and go meet the Duke of Muzhai for a while!"
In the morning, all the officials entered the palace together, and rumors were flying in the market. One moment, the emperor died, and the other moment, the new king was about to appear. Anyway, it was a mess.
It is precisely because of this that countless people have their eyes fixed on the Forbidden City, just waiting for the results of this court meeting to come out.
Then the officials who entered the palace did not come out, but the people in the capital were shocked to find that the Dongchang Tiqi and the Jinyiwei came out in all directions, their horses hooves flying, and they ran down the street, extremely fierce.
Every mansion was broken open by these wolf-like and fierce-looking Jin Yiwei and Dongchang Fanzi, and then they were taken away with shackles and shackles.
Don't worry about it. Scenes like this were really rare for people in Beijing in the early years. But in recent years, thanks to Chu Yi, everyone has seen it many times, and they are all used to it.
Even if a period of time passes, if Chu Yi does not confiscate his family and exterminate his clan, the people in the capital will really be a little uncomfortable with it.
In the past, when everyone saw Jinyiwei and Dongchang appearing on the long street, everyone's first reaction must be to run away for fear of being targeted by these evil spirits.
However, Chu Yi's rule was extremely strict, especially for violent organizations such as Dongchang and Jinyiwei. Anyone who dared to disturb the people would be severely punished by Chu Yi and would never be tolerated.
After Chu Yi killed more than a dozen Dongchang fans and Jinyiwei warriors who were disturbing the people, no one from the Jinyiwei or Dongchang dared to disturb the people anymore.
In this way, the people in the capital naturally don't have much fear of Dongchang and Jinyiwei. As long as they don't seek death themselves, they really don't worry about being targeted by Dongchang and Jinyiwei.
"Look, there's another team of Dongchang fans. Three teams have passed by in just a moment. I really don't know what happened!"
"Oh my God, isn't that Zhao Yushi's house? Jin Yiwei rushed in... It's over, it seems that Zhao Yushi is a pill!"
Many people were even interested in counting how many pairs of Jin Yiwei and Dongchang Fanzi passed by.
Suddenly, there was a sound of horse hoofbeats, and some people followed the sound. At first glance, someone couldn't help but look excited, and exclaimed: "Chu...Chu Yi..."
"It's really the General Manager Chu Yi!"
"Ah, Governor Chu personally took action, who is going to be in trouble!"
Seeing Chu Yi riding past them, these people recognized Chu Yi and almost trembled with excitement. Many people even chased after Chu Yi and others.
It has been a long time since Chu Yi personally went out to recruit people. Various legends about Chu Yi have been circulating in the capital.
Although in these rumors, Chu Yi is basically a demon-like existence, these people are not fools. Whether Chu Yi is a demon or not, for such a long time, everyone has not said it with their mouths, but it is very clear in their hearts.
If I really want to talk about it, I really want to thank those who tried their best to throw dirty water on Chu Yi. They poured too much dirty water on him, and the result was that the people in the capital regarded him as a joke.
Because many of the so-called rumors about Chu Yi sound extremely ridiculous. For example, Chu Yi likes beauty, and he can conquer ten women at night and is invincible with a golden gun. Even such ridiculous rumors can be related to Chu Yi, and no fool would know it.
Believe it.
In addition, Chu Yi restrained his men, so that there were no more Jin Yiwei in the capital, and the incident of Dongchang harming the people did not happen again.
No matter how many people Chu Yi killed, he never killed anyone who was law-abiding. Therefore, although Chu Yi had a bad reputation in the capital, few people were extremely afraid of him.
Now seeing Chu Yi personally taking action, many people shouted excitedly: "Everyone, come and see Governor Chu confiscate his house!"
"Oh my God, Governor Chu is going to ransack his house again. Everyone, hurry up and go see it!"
