Daming: Let you do your best to manage, do you go to health?

Chapter 96 Shock the government and the opposition!

Chapter 96 Shock the government and the opposition!

How could Huang Yan not be clear about this truth.

But now the facts are in front of us, the lake is right in front of us
Could it be that it was done by humans?
However, when Huang Yan looked up at the area of ​​the lake again, he shook his head involuntarily.

how is this possible
How can such a large lake be done by manpower.

At this point, although Huang Yan was still puzzled by the formation of the lake, he was not as surprised as he was at the beginning.

After all, there are many strange things in this world, and not all of them can be ascertained.

However, when they continued to ride along the so-called mining area, a long river gradually appeared in front of their eyes.

As it got closer, Huang Yan suddenly understood why the lake appeared.

This is a river from north to south, and the connection is the lake they just saw!

And the material used for this river course is exactly the same as the hard road we stepped on when we came here!
For a moment, Huang Yan was beyond shocked.

That lake was really made by human beings!
Although this place is located in the outskirts of Beijing, it is also an inland area. Without the tributaries of the Yangtze River flowing through it, water intake is the same as other inland cities that have no water source at all.

And such a large amount of water
Could it be... A terrible thought came to his mind.

Although this place is located along the Yangtze River, it is still far away from the river. How far will this river be built?
If it was really done by human beings, I don't know how much it will cost.

But in the imperial court, he had never heard of building such a river.

Thinking of this, if it wasn't for the fact that he still had some important business to do at this time, Huang Yan could not wait to go to the source of the river to have a look right now.

But now, I can only temporarily suppress these thoughts in my heart.

As the group of them continued to move forward on the hard road, the things that divided the land that they saw on the hillside before also appeared in front of them.

These are also made of the same material as the hard road, and these things that divide the area are not fairy paintings, but small canals.

These small canals divide the wasteland into large areas, and there is an obvious gap where each small canal passes, but now these gaps are blocked by a large piece of iron, and there is no Let the water from these little channels flow into them.

If it's just such a small piece, that's all.

However, when he looked on the hillside before, what he saw was endless.

As the factory supervisor of the East Factory, Huang Yan tried his best not to appear so shocked.

"Go, keep going."

As the crowd set off again, it didn't take long this time before they met another group of people head-on.

After getting close to each other, Huang Yan on the horseback hurriedly got off the horse and shouted respectfully to the oncoming people: "I have seen His Highness the Third Emperor!"

Accompanied by the next group of people on the opposite side, Zhu Zhanyong looked at Huang Yan solemnly between his brows, and asked, "Eunuch Huang, what are you doing here?"

Huang Yan hurriedly replied: "Return to Your Highness, the emperor has ordered you to come and ask His Highness Third to come over."

Hearing that the old man was looking for him, Zhu Zhanyong's eyebrows became more serious.

But after thinking about it, he still nodded, whispered some words to those around him, and headed back to the imperial palace together with Huang Yan.

It's just that this time and again, when the group of them rushed back to the capital, the sky was already dark.

When they arrived at Qianqing Palace, candles were already lit in the palace.

Wearing a loose cotton and linen robe, Zhu Di walked slowly in the hall.

In this inner hall, he has been waiting for a day.

I thought I wouldn't be back today, but I never thought that I just received a letter from Huang Yan, saying that he would arrive in a quarter of an hour.

While Zhu Di was waiting anxiously.

Zhu Zhanyong and Huang Yan have returned to the city tower.

After revealing their identities and showing Dongchang's badge, the general guarding the city let them in.

Walking on the avenue of the capital, because the palace is not far away, everyone is not in such a hurry at this time.

As the speed slowed down, Zhu Zhanyong had the opportunity to test his tone, and asked: "Eunuch Huang, you said that you are so eager to find me, is there something important for the old man? I don’t remember if there is anything I need the old man to ask.”

Faced with Zhu Zhanyong's temptation, Huang Yan did not pretend to be confused, but directly apologized: "His Royal Highness, this matter is related to the emperor, please forgive me for not being able to tell the truth directly. If your highness has any questions, or When I get to the palace, I will greet the emperor face to face."

Seeing that Huang Yan didn't reveal anything, Zhu Zhanyong could only shrug helplessly.

There's no way, who made him an ordinary little emperor's grandson without an official or job.

This is the one in front of me, but he is also a powerful figure in the imperial court. Don't look at his highness in front of you, and his ministers in front of you.
With the ability of the other party, if he hadn't tabooed the existence of the old man and his father Zhu Gaochi, he might be able to kill him with a finger.

Under such circumstances, how could he expect the other party to reveal something to him without authorization.

But Zhu Zhanyong has long been used to this, and he never asked anything until he reached the gate of the Qianqing Palace in the palace.

Inside the Qianqing Palace.

Zhao Quan hurried to the door of the inner hall and reported to Zhu Di who was inside: "Your Highness, the third emperor's grandson is here."

Hearing this, Zhu Di froze and said immediately, "Call in."

"Yes!"

Outside the hall, Zhu Zhanyong observed the scene around the hall with some trepidation.

To be honest, he really doesn't come here very often.

In this family, his father Zhu Gaochi, second uncle Zhu Gaoxu and third uncle Zhu Gaosui came here as if they were visiting. As for their grandson's generation, only his eldest brother could come here to see the old man from time to time.

As for their grandsons, they don't have official positions, let alone any official duties, so how can they come here every day.

So this time is really a bit tense.

Even if he knew that the person inside was his grandfather, it was the emperor after all.
In addition, the impression of the old man among their royal grandchildren has always been extremely strict, no matter which family the child is, no one is afraid.

"Your Highness, the Emperor wants you to go in."

Zhao Quan came to Zhu Zhanyong and said.

Hearing this, Zhu Zhanyong could only nod his head, and walked into the palace with Zhao Quan and Eunuch Zhao.

At this time, the huge Qianqing Palace was dark, but some lanterns and candles along the road illuminated the place where they walked.

However, this is the outer hall.

At this time, the inner hall is brighter.

Through the curtain hanging at the door of the old man's inner palace bedroom, one can still see the old man sitting on the chair where he normally handles government affairs.

Seeing this, Zhu Zhanyong bowed his head and said: "Grandson Zhu Zhanyong, send greetings to the saint!"

Hearing the voice outside, the old man Zhu Di said casually, "Zhen An, come in."

As Zhu Zhanyong walked in, only he, the old man, and Huang Yan were the only ones in the Qianqing Palace bedroom.

When Zhu Zhanyong came to the old man and knelt down to wait for the old man's questioning, Huang Yan, who came back with him, whispered in the old man Zhu Di's ear.

Because of the relatively long distance, although Zhu Zhanyong heard some whispers, he couldn't make out what was said.

As for Zhu Di on the dragon chair, his originally calm face immediately frowned after hearing what Huang Yan said.

Especially when Huang Yan talked more and more, the old man frowned more and more.

It wasn't until Huang Yan finished talking about everything he knew that the old man frowned and waved him away.

With Huang Yan's departure, only Zhu Di and Zhu Zhanyong were left in the entire hall.

In addition, the temple is not as bright as daylight at this time, which always makes people feel a little nervous and unable to relax.

That's especially true for Zhu Zhanyong at this moment, and Huang Yan whispered in the old man's ear for a long time, but he didn't even know what he said.

That Huang Yan saw the divided land and small canals, Zhu Zhanyong knew this in his heart, but if it was just these, he would not be afraid.

I just don't know what else Huang Yan knows, such as whether he saw the reservoir and found out that the reservoir is man-made.

And his own mansion.
In short, Zhu Zhanyong's heart is full of thoughts at this moment, and he can't figure out a way to think about it, and he doesn't know how to answer when the old man asks a question.

And Zhu Di, who was sitting on the dragon chair, looked at his grandson kneeling below, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

He, Zhu Di, knows this grandson quite well. This child is afraid of himself.
After knowing this, Zhu Di was not in a hurry to ask any more questions, just sat on the dragon chair and looked at Zhezi, left the kid aside, without speaking, let the kid kneel down, and Thinking about it in secret.

Just as the old man Zhu Di guessed, Zhu Zhanyong was really afraid of his old man. He was fine during the day, but this night was the first time he saw the old man under such circumstances.

I didn't know what the old man was going to ask me, and my heart was really pounding.

Thinking about why the old man didn't speak.

A minute of the old man's silence is a minute of suffering for Zhu Zhanyong.

Just when the old man in the Qianqing palace was deliberately letting his grandson dry out, letting him break his own psychological defense.

Little did he know that a guard in Jinyi sneaked out from the back door of the Prince's Mansion.

At the same time, with the departure of this Jinyiwei, all the Jinyiwei in the capital began to quickly gather.

More than a dozen different notebooks contained different names of people, and these were all people they wanted to arrest overnight.

After planning for a long time, everything is finally ready tonight. Under Zhu Zhanji's order, led by Ji Gang, the commanders of the Nanbei Town Fusi led their own teams and began to move towards the entire capital according to Zhu Zhanji's instructions. , and even the entire Yingtian Mansion began to arrest those corrupt officials with proven evidence.

There are more than a dozen copies, each of which records dozens or hundreds of officials, ranging from a courtier standing in the court to a county magistrate in Yingtianfu. If there is any evidence, they will all be arrested and brought to justice.

According to Zhu Zhanji's order, the tigers and flies were swat together to thoroughly purify the air in Yingtianfu.

It also thoroughly cleaned up the silt that had accumulated in the imperial court since the death of my great-grandfather in the past few decades.

Just like the silt in the river, it will indeed continue to appear after it is cleared, but this does not mean that it can not be cleared.

However, this time the action happened so suddenly that even Qi Cheng of Beizhen Fusi did not expect that even he was woken up from the bed.

But after he understood the plan this time, he immediately ordered people to go to the palace and report the actions in Jinyiwei to Zhu Di.

This is also what the emperor personally explained when he left the palace.

In the Qing palace.

After torturing his grandson there for about a quarter of an hour, Zhu Di finished disposing of the memorial in his hand, only then remembered that there was a person kneeling in front of him.

Looking at his grandson, beads of sweat gradually appeared on his forehead, and while the corners of Zhu Di's mouth were slightly raised, he also deliberately asked in a calm voice: "Please explain."

Hearing the old man's voice suddenly, Zhu Zhanyong, who was kneeling down with pain in his legs, was taken aback for a moment, but he couldn't say anything.

explain
What are you talking about, you're the one to start.

But he could only murmur these words in his heart, and he would never dare to say them in front of the old man.

But after thinking about it, he really didn't know what to say, so he couldn't help but bite the bullet and asked, "Grandpa, what do you want your grandson to explain?"

Following Zhu Zhanyong's words, the old man suddenly slapped the table and said, "What do you want me to tell you?"

At this time, Zhu Zhanyong wanted to cry but had no tears.

He's so good, he won't even stay in the capital soon, what can he explain?
Just when Zhu Zhanyong was at a loss, the old man Zhu Di in front of him suddenly said: "Do you need me to tell you all the things you and your elder brother did in private?"

As soon as the old man said this, Zhu Zhanyong's heart tightened suddenly.

Old man. Do you really know?
But now even though he knew what the old man wanted him to explain, he still didn't know what to say.

I and my eldest brother have planned a lot of things in private, which one did the old man ask to explain?
Is it the canal that Huang Yan saw today, or the reservoir, or something else?
For a while, the sweat on Zhu Zhanyong's forehead poured out as if he didn't want money.

It's not that he didn't dare to say these things, but that he promised his elder brother before that these things must never be known by the old man or even his father and mother.

For the attitude of this matter, the eldest brother has unprecedented respect.

Although Zhu Zhanyong is used to laughing and joking on weekdays, he has not lost the chain in business matters.

In addition, this is also related to an issue of trust between him and his elder brother.

After thinking about it carefully, Zhu Zhanyong still poked his neck and said: "Grandpa, grandson really doesn't know what to explain, brother and I? There is nothing between me and brother?"

Listening to Zhu Zhanyong's reply, a look of surprise flashed in Zhu Di's eyes.

Unexpectedly, this grandson who usually looks submissive, only knows how to laugh and laugh, and has no bones in his body, actually bit his mouth in this situation.

After hanging him for a quarter of an hour, he really didn't say anything abruptly.

Under such circumstances, not to mention his inconspicuous grandson, even many ministers who have experienced many things in the court do not have such courage in front of themselves, and will not behave better than this kid better.

Thinking of this, Zhu Di no longer lied to him, but asked directly: "Grandpa asked you, the 10 taels of silver that your second and third uncles gave to your elder brother before, I heard that you transported them away. Where have you been using it?"

Hearing the old man ask such words, Zhu Zhanyong gradually understood something.

The old man should be playing with the rules
Thinking of this, when Zhu Zhanyong answered again, he was calmer: "Grandpa, the money that my elder brother gave to my grandson, my grandson used it to help some hungry refugees."

Hearing that the kid lied in front of his face, Zhu Di suddenly became angry, and said: "Fart! The hungry and refugees will naturally be resolved by the court. The elder brother is now the supervisor of the country, so he just allocates some money. Why do you need to specialize?" Kidnapped your second uncle and third uncle's money?"

"Boy, grandpa will give you another chance. Don't think that grandpa won't punish you. This matter is related to state affairs. Even if your father comes, grandpa will be punished as well!"

The old man's words made Zhu Zhanyong extremely helpless.

he thought.
He never thought that the old man would not punish him.

But elder brother explained his things, can these be said?
No.

What can I do?

In this short period of time, Zhu Zhanyong went through everything that happened today in his mind.

After much deliberation, there are only two things that can be known by the old man. The first is the use of the money that the old man just said, and the second is what Huang Yan went through when he went to find him today. those canals.

The only thing that is uncertain now is what exactly did Huang Yan, the factory supervisor of the East Factory, see wherever he went?
Anyway, I can't hide today. With the attitude of the old man, if he doesn't say something today, he will never get out of the Qianqing Palace.

Think here.Zhu Zhanyong had no choice but to pretend to be frightened, bowed to the old man, and said: "Grandpa and grandson really didn't do anything in private with elder brother, that is, we spent some money to transfer the Yangtze River The source of water was diverted to the outskirts of Beijing. However, Grandpa, we didn’t do this for ourselves, we haven’t reclaimed any of that land, and it’s still all wasteland.”

"The purpose of doing this is nothing more than trying to see if it is possible to convert these abandoned lands into fertile fields for planting rice. If it is possible, it can be promoted in the imperial court and increase the income for the entire Yingtianfu and even the entire Nanzhili. Countless fertile fields."

Listening to Zhu Zhanyong's account of these things, the anger in Zhu Di's heart gradually subsided.

Because what he said is still right with what Huang Yan just explained.

"anything else?"

Regarding what Zhu Zhanyong just explained, Zhu Di didn't study it carefully, but continued to ask.

And when he heard the old man's words, Zhu Zhanyong's heart sank.

The old man didn't ask about the canal in detail, he must have heard some information from Huang Yan, and he continued to ask, and his attitude was so resolute.

Obviously, he knew in his heart that there were other things left unsaid besides the canal.

Thinking of this, Zhu Zhanyong didn't dare to hesitate any longer, and directly told what happened in the reservoir.

The old man had heard about the reservoir from Zhu Zhanji before, but he used it for water control.

While thinking about the reservoir in his heart, the old man was obviously not satisfied with what he just heard. He wanted to hear more things from Zhu Zhanyong, so he asked again: "What else, don't tell me Ask little by little, and if you dare to hide something, grandpa will lock you up for a month first, and then we will see if you still dare to hide it."

Hearing that the old man was going to lock him up, Zhu Zhanyong suddenly wept and said to the old man: "Grandpa, there is no more. The grandson has said everything that should be said. There is nothing else. My elder brother went back and forth. How many things do you want your grandson to do after just giving such a little money?"

Seeing that kid Zhu Zhanyong's face full of tears, Zhu Di was really fooled by him for a while.

But if you think about it carefully, what the kid said is correct. There is only such a small amount of money in all, and there is no transfer of money from the court. The Prince's Mansion is even poorer. Zhu Di still knows how much money his son has. .

That being the case, how much money can these two boys get?
Even if the two of them have the ability to get another Yangtze River out, they must have money, right?

Thinking of this, Zhu Di didn't delve into it any further, but turned his head and asked, "The Yangtze River is far away from the suburbs of Beijing. How did you bring the river water here?"

Seeing that the old man didn't ask any more questions, Zhu Zhanyong was deeply relieved.

As for the matter of drinking water, I no longer conceal it, since the old man knows it, it is useless to conceal it.

"Grandpa, it's actually very simple. My elder brother accidentally discovered some special materials that can be used to lay river channels, and these materials will not break apart like ordinary soil after laying river channels. So So I thought about trying it out in the suburbs of Beijing. If it doesn’t work, forget it, it’s just a waste of money, but if it works, it can turn the area in the suburbs of Beijing that was not suitable for growing rice into one mu. Acres of fertile land."

"Brother said, grandpa, you are usually worried about the government affairs of the court. As a grandson, you always have to think about it for grandpa."

Zhu Zhanyong said flatteringly with a smiling face.

As for this, Zhu Zhanji really didn't say it.

It was completely made up by this kid on the spot. As for whether the flattery is right or not, it has nothing to do with Zhu Zhanyong.

If the photo is right, it is like saying something nice to my elder brother, and I can feel better at this time. If the photo is wrong, it is also what my elder brother said, and it has nothing to do with Zhu Zhanyong.

After the old man heard Zhu Zhanyong's words, a smile appeared on his tense face.

"That kid said these words? Can your elder brother have such thoughts?"

Zhu Di is still very clear about his grandson.

As long as that kid can think a little bit about his grandfather, he won't say it when I force him to come every day to personally teach and handle government affairs.

As long as you leave a little space in front of that kid, he will absolutely sneak in at that little space.

Don't even bring your head back.

But Zhu Zhanyong is also his grandson after all, and Zhu Di is quite happy that his grandson flatters his grandfather.

"Okay, okay, don't talk any more nonsense, although you didn't do any shameful things behind your grandfather's back with your big brother. But if this kind of thing happens again in the future, you have to tell grandpa first. You are not allowed to hide the slightest thing from Grandpa, otherwise if Grandpa finds out, you will have to weigh the consequences yourself."

Hearing this, Zhu Zhanyong hurriedly nodded desperately to his grandfather.

He said solemnly: "Yes, yes, grandpa, don't worry, in the future, grandson will know everything and say everything to grandpa!"

Seeing this kid's flattering appearance, Zhu Di shook his head involuntarily.

Judging from the situation of contact today, this kid's temperament is not bad, although he is not as good as his elder brother, but judging from the relationship between the two brothers, some things can still be entrusted to him in the future.

In the future, when his eldest brother ascends the throne, this kid will also be able to help.

And now let him, the grandfather, cultivate and cultivate first.

Thinking of this, Zhu Di had an idea in his mind.

But when he saw the kid looking forward, as if he was waiting for him to let him go, Zhu Di suddenly smiled at the kid.

"It's getting so late, why don't you go back first?"

Hearing this, Zhu Zhanyong nodded his head desperately.

But Zhu Di smiled and said, "Now let you go back and let you collude with your elder brother?"

Zhu Zhanyong, who heard this, was stunned: "Grandpa and grandson will never say anything to elder brother!"

I thought the old man had already believed in his 'loyalty', but never thought about it, the old man never thought about it that way at all.

"Okay, you should sleep in this palace tonight. Tomorrow morning, take grandpa to see the canals you have created. I want to see that your elder brother can make such careful preparations and deliberately hide them from others. know what's going on."

Hearing that the old man wanted to see it in person, Zhu Zhanyong's expression changed instantly.

The reason why Huang Yan only saw those canals and reservoirs today was because he was bumped into by himself before he went deep into the mining area and beyond.

But if the old man went to see it in person tomorrow, he wouldn't be so foolish as today.

At that time, all the things his elder brother asked to prepare will be exposed.

At that time, his elder brother still didn't come to chop him with a knife?
Not only that, but what I swore in front of the old man just now, I will know everything and say nothing to the old man in the future.

It would be embarrassing if the turning head was pierced.

The old man might not know how to deal with him.

However, when Zhu Zhanyong wanted to say something, Zhu Di didn't give him any chance to refute.

"This matter is settled like this. You will lead the way for grandpa tomorrow morning!"

But when Zhu Zhanyong was still desperately trying to say something, but Zhu Di was just waving his hand to chase away people, Zhao Quan from the outer hall suddenly broke in.

Zhao Quan hurriedly came to the old man's side, and whispered in the old man's ear: "Your Majesty, Qi Cheng, the commander of Jinyiwei North Town Fusi, has sent news that the entire Jinyiwei has been dispatched by His Royal Highness Changsun tonight, and has temporarily begun to deal with the entire response. All the big and small officials in the Tianfu will arrest, and anyone who has found evidence in Jinyiwei will be arrested, there is no cap on the top, and there is no limit on the bottom!"

The old man Zhu Di's expression also changed when he heard this, but since he is a corrupt official who has already found criminal evidence, he didn't resist too much, but he still couldn't help asking: "Did you say how many officials were involved in total?"

Zhao Quan replied, "There are more than six hundred people."

At this moment, even Zhu Di, who has been on the battlefield for a long time, couldn't help but change his expression in the face of this number.

More than six hundred people
With all the calculations, there are only 88 officials in the capital. (According to the calculation of Yanzhong, the supervisory censor during the Ming Taizu period)
Although the arrest operation involved the entire Yingtian Mansion, there were no more than 91 officials in the entire Ming Dynasty, from ministers down to miscellaneous staff.

If these more than 600 people were placed in the entire Yingtian Mansion, that would be a huge number.

Once these more than 600 people are arrested, will the Yingtian Mansion of the Ming Dynasty still be in operation tomorrow?
Even if it was him, Zhu Di, he had to be fully prepared to arrest more than 600 people at once to rectify the administration of officials, but this kid
Grab it as soon as you say it, and don't even say a word to his grandfather!

The entire imperial court knew nothing about this incident, so one can imagine what chaos will be in the court tomorrow once this incident happens!
Thinking of this, Zhu Di immediately asked: "Where are the Jinyiwei people?"

Zhao Quan replied: "All set off half an hour ago."

Hearing this, Zhu Di suddenly said angrily: "Since they all set off half an hour ago, why did the news come only now?"

Zhao Quan was so yelled at by Zhu Di that he broke out in a cold sweat: "Your Majesty, this operation happened suddenly, and all the Jinyiwei didn't know what to do until they arrived at the place, so it was impossible to report in advance. At the same time, the Jinyiwei all commanded Messenger Ji Gang said that according to His Royal Highness Changsun's order, everyone supervises each other, and if there is anyone in the Jinyi Guard who sends messages privately, they will all be killed on the spot, causing disaster to the nine clans."

"That's why even the commander of Beizhen Fusi didn't dare to spread the news in an open manner. He could only find the right time after departure and order a trusted aide to come to the palace to spread the word."

Hearing that all of this was the idea of ​​his little bastard, Zhu Di suddenly became angry.

But there was nothing he could do, Jin Yiwei's people had been out for half an hour now, even if they sent someone to chase them now, they couldn't catch up.

Besides, there were so many Jinyiwei, how many people would he need to send to notify all of them.

If during the arrest of these Jinyiwei, the people sent to notify arrive, and then release these people according to his Zhu Di's order.

Shouldn't you tell them in front of all the corrupt officials that the Emperor Zhu Di dare not arrest them?
In this way, not only Zhu Di's face will be disgraced, but the face of the entire Ming court will be wiped out.

The court's laws and regulations will also be established in vain.

No prestige at all.

Knowing these things clearly, but being unable to do anything, Zhu Di suddenly kicked the desk in front of him to the ground angrily.

"What about the little bastard?"

Zhao Quan said timidly: "His Royal Highness is still sleeping in the Prince's Mansion."

Zhu Di laughed angrily when he heard this.

A hole was pierced by this kid all day, but he himself was still sleeping in the prince's mansion.

"Go, get that little bastard."

Zhu Di, who was about to order someone to arrest Zhu Zhanji and teach him a lesson, stopped as soon as he said this.

Even if he caught that little bastard here, what could he say and do?

It is nothing more than to teach him a lesson, but what is the use to that kid?

What's more, the matter has come to this point, and there is no room for any remedy.

Zhu Di anxiously rubbed his forehead.

But now we can only take one step at a time.

Instead of calling that kid over tonight to teach him a lesson, it would be painless.It's better to call that kid to the court tomorrow and let him bear the pressure of those ministers by himself, at least he can teach him a long lesson.

Let him face the disaster he caused and see how to deal with it.

After thinking up to this point, Zhu Di didn't think much about it anymore.

When he turned his head to look at Zhu Zhanyong who was kneeling on the ground, his previous good mood disappeared, and he cursed at Zhu Zhanyong: "Look at the good things you and your elder brother did!"

Hearing the old man's scolding, Zhu Zhanyong was really wronged.

Full of resentment: "What does this have to do with me?"

However, the old man ignored the grievance on the face of his grandson Zhu Zhanyong, pointed at him, and said to Zhao Quan beside him: "Order this kid to be locked up for me and strictly guarded, and he must not be allowed to take a step." !"

"Yes!"

As the two guards outside the door took Zhu Zhanyong away, the outer hall was filled with the voice of that boy Zhu Zhanyong: "Grandpa! This matter has nothing to do with me! That's what my elder brother did. I do not know!"

After disposing of his grandson Zhu Zhanyong, Zhu Di's mood gradually calmed down. Thinking about the situation he will face tomorrow, he began to think about how to remedy it, and at the same time, he was also thinking about why that kid Zhu Zhanji would do it.

And why are you in such a hurry?
Even if those corrupt officials need to be dealt with, it is completely possible to discuss with him, the grandfather, and then deal with these officials by order of the court.

It didn't make sense that he insisted on ordering Jin Yiwei's people to investigate the case privately and secretly overnight.

No matter how you look at this matter, there is a feeling that the kid wants to cut this matter quickly, cut it first and then play it.

What is this kid afraid of?

Afraid that as a grandfather, he is unwilling to deal with those corrupt officials?
He Zhu Di asked himself, although he was inferior to his father Zhu Yuanzhang in dealing with corrupt officials and rectifying the administration of officials.

However, it is by no means innocent, right?
That being the case, it is absolutely impossible for that kid Zhu Zhanji to dare to tell himself because he wants to deal with these corrupt officials.

It is the handling of corrupt officials that cannot be known to him, a grandfather.

But why?

Zhu Di still couldn't figure out this question.

As a battle-tested king who has been born and died many times on the battlefield, Zhu Di has a vague feeling as he probes deeper and deeper into this issue.

That kid seemed to be brewing some conspiracy that he didn't know about.

Zhu Di didn't fall asleep all night. He urgently transferred a list of officials arrested this time from Jin Yiwei, and began to dispatch them from other state capitals outside Yingtianfu based on the information of their official positions. official.

At the same time, a group of officials were urgently promoted.

In order to make up for the official gap in Yingtianfu as much as possible.

Including the members of the Hanlin Academy that Zhu Zhanji used before, Zhu Di also followed suit, and promoted a large number of Hanlin scholars urgently and assigned them to corresponding official positions.

Although there are still great doubts about whether these people are qualified for the current official position, but for now, it can only be done for the time being.

Of course, while promoting and promoting these officials, Zhu Di also stated that the officials promoted and promoted this time are all temporary positions, and will then decide whether to formally appoint them based on their performance in their positions.

But even if this is the case, it is still difficult to fill the gap of more than 600 people through emergency promotion and dispatch.

It can only be to assign these officials who can be transferred and promoted to key and urgent official positions.

At the same time, some idle and less important officials in the imperial court were dispatched to those positions that were in short supply.

After working all night long, Zhu Di breathed a sigh of relief until dawn, put down the pen in his hand, and looked at the list of completed tasks and appointments in front of him, cursing involuntarily: "Little bastard, if you If you don’t give your grandfather an explanation, you will never be spared this time!”

After Zhu Di identified Zhu Zhanji as the successor of the Ming Dynasty in his heart, the demands on him naturally increased.

There is no need to say more about the talent and talent this kid showed before, even he, Zhu Di, thinks he is not as good.

But this kid was too impatient in his work, and more than 600 officials arrested him as soon as he said he wanted to. This can't be described as impatient at all, but has no brains at all.

It is understandable for him to arrest corrupt officials and rectify the mood of officials.

But his behavior has affected the foundation of the Ming Dynasty.
Thinking of this, Zhu Di muttered slowly again: "Stinky boy, grandpa will just see this time, what kind of tricks do you want to play!"

And with the dawn, everything that happened last night also began to spread to the entire Yingtian Mansion.

Especially in this capital city, how many corrupt officials were forced into by Jin Yiwei's people last night and took them away.

There are also some clan relatives with deep backgrounds and high officials in the imperial court.

On weekdays, even if even one of them was arrested, it would cause an uproar in the capital, but now countless such people have been arrested and brought to justice.

The turmoil and shock caused can be described as shocking the government and the public and the world.

Even the prince who was in the prince's mansion was woken up from the bed early in the morning.

In a daze, he was surrounded by a group of people.

"Prince, Mr. Chen from the Ministry of Industry was arrested by Jin Yiwei last night, but what's the big deal?"

"Prince, in our Jingzhao Mansion, more than ten people were also arrested last night."

"Have any of you been arrested? Four or five officials from our household department have also been arrested."

"Prince, even if you want to arrest people, you should let us know in secret. Now that these officials are missing, our ministries are too busy."

"."

Faced with these people's questioning, the crown prince Zhu Gaochi looked confused.

Because he didn't know what happened last night at all, he just felt that the sky had changed after sleeping.

The people who came here this morning were all the ministries of the imperial court, and the people in charge of the yamen of each imperial court. With so many people here, one can imagine how many people were arrested in the capital last night.

Under the questioning of these people, Zhu Gaochi's drowsiness gradually disappeared.

He frowned and asked the people in front of him: "You mean, those who arrested people last night were all from Jinyiwei?"

"yes."

Hearing everyone's reply, Zhu Gaochi faintly felt that this matter was not simple.
