Nanjing Jinyiwei Official Residence.

When Cao Huachun entered the house, Yang Wencong, Li Jizhou, Xiang Zujiang, Shi Minghui, Liu Ning and Sun Chuan were already waiting. This time, the Donglin Party members were liquidated, Cao Huachun was directly responsible, and Yang Wencong and others helped.

Cao Huachun knew very well that these people were the people the emperor trusted the most. This action was nominally the liquidation of the Donglin Party members, but in fact it was the most critical step for the emperor to stabilize the foundation. The Donglin Party members who were liquidated were the ten merchants, especially three of them. By liquidating them, the court could obtain a lot of money.

No matter what the emperor wants to do, he needs a lot of money to support him.

The Ministry of Revenue in Nanjing has been crying for poverty. The deposit of the Yankuan house is less than one million taels of gold. This amount of silver cannot do anything well. Before the emperor ascended the throne, he did not directly interfere in any matters of the Sixth Ministry of Nanjing. Everything he did was bypassing the Sixth Ministry of Nanjing and the Supervision Bureau. Such actions made Cao Huachun feel so clear. The emperor would not completely give up on the Sixth Ministry of Nanjing and the Supervision Bureau, but would never rely entirely on the Sixth Ministry of Nanjing and the Supervision Bureau.

The emperor's big and small things he did churned in Cao Huachun's mind from the moment he left the capital.

The general of Shandong, Liu Zeqing, gathered the grain scattered from all over the country, sent Lu Yuanda, Shi Minghui, Long Zushan and others to the capital to liquidate the Donglin Party members. Isn’t all this to lay a strong foundation?

Cao Huachun sincerely admired the emperor's wisdom. In fact, the emperor had long known that the capital was difficult to preserve, and had laid the foundation step by step, and made many decisions in a very short time. This was not something that ordinary people could do.

Cao Huachun made up his mind to follow the emperor and do his best to do things.

Seeing everyone standing up, Cao Huachun spoke with a smile on his face.

"You all want to sit down. Our family will follow the emperor's imperial edict and work with you to stabilize the situation in Nanjing and the south."

When everyone sat down, Cao Huachun's expression became serious.

"The mission is so important, our family will not talk much. What should we do, sirs also know. Our family has just come from the emperor. The emperor ordered that the case of the Donglin Party will be settled within ten days. It is necessary to create momentum and suppress the Donglin Party members. There is no need to kill too much, and it cannot be overcorrected. It is reasonable and well-founded. The key is that there cannot be fluctuations in the south."

"Our family understands that there cannot be fluctuations in the south, so everyone must recognize the punishment for the Donglin Party."

Speaking of this, Cao Huachun looked at Xiang Zujiang and Shi Minghui.

Xiang Zujiang and Shi Minghui only had the fame of students, but they were trusted by the emperor. It has to be said that they were very lucky. There are many such wise people in the world in Daming. If the two were discovered by the emperor, their ancestors had accumulated so much merit.

Cao Huachun did not pay special attention to Xiang Zujiang and Shi Minghui, but what they did was impressive, especially Shi Minghui who went to the capital, assisted Lu Yuanda, not only obtained the emperor's imperial edict and the imperial seal, but also rescued His Highness Yong, Zhu Cixu and others, directly attacking the arrogance of the treacherous Li Zicheng.

Lu Yuanda and others have entered Nanzhili. According to time, they can arrive in Nanjing tomorrow. This incident will definitely cause a certain degree of sensation in Nanjing.

"Mr. Xiang, Mr. Shi, the emperor has an oral order. Do you think how can you do the best?"

Xiang Zujiang looked at Shi Minghui, stood up, clasped his fists at Cao Huachun and spoke.

"Mr. Cao, I feel that Qian Qianyi has already given everything. We will rely on Qian Qianyi's confession. When necessary, we can also let Qian Qianyi stand up and speak. Since this person has admitted everything, his bones have become soft and he dare not have any opposition..."

Cao Huachun nodded vigorously, and this core is certain.

"Mr. Xiang said it very well. Our family also sees it this way. Lord Yang and Lord Li, the soldiers under your command are responsible for this operation. I wonder if these soldiers understand the emperor's painstaking efforts."

Generally speaking, there are always some tricks during the search. For example, officials responsible for the search can obtain a lot of money from it, and soldiers responsible for the operation will also hide some money secretly. These are open secrets and will not pursue them. But now it is different. The emperor will never tolerate such behaviors. The emperor has long proposed that the army must have iron military discipline and military rules. Anyone who dares to violate military discipline and military rules, no matter what his identity, will be severely punished.

As soon as Cao Huachun finished speaking, Yang Wencong stood up and clasped his fists and spoke.

"Mr. Cao, together with Lord Li, the lower officials, strictly restrain the military discipline and rules of the soldiers in accordance with the emperor's requirements, have achieved obvious results. In this operation, the lower officials and Lord Li decided to recruit two thousand soldiers to participate. The lower officials led 500 soldiers to Suzhou, General Deng Shiqiu led 500 soldiers to Yangzhou, and Lord Li led 1,000 soldiers to Nanjing. All the arrested people and seized money were transported to Nanjing."

"The subordinates here promise not to arrest the wrong person and not to miss a penny. During the inspection, if a soldier dares to extend his hand and punish him heavily, he will never tolerate him."

Cao Huachun gave a thumbs up to Yang Wencong and Li Jizhou.

"Okay, okay, Lord Yang said this, our family will be relieved. It is not the first time the court has arrested and confiscated. However, all the strange behaviors in the past are clear. This time, it must not happen. The emperor's reasonable and well-founded requirements are clear."

Cao Huachun finally looked at Liu Ning and Sun Chuan.

"General Liu Qi, General Sun Qi, the information you provide is extremely critical. We didn't expect that the Donglin Party is so rampant in Nanjing and the south. If the emperor had not been wise and wise, he would not know what dirty things the Donglin Party members would do. This action would be to completely shake the foundation of the Donglin Party members."

"Our family thinks that although Qian Qianyi confessed many despicable behaviors of the Donglin Party, he may not have said them all. There are still many Donglin Party members hidden in the dark. They are crazy and will not be willing to fail, and may even take risks. Therefore, it is still necessary to continue to explore the behaviors of the Donglin Party members."

"Of course, we are not asking you to focus all your attention on the Donglin Party members. You have more important tasks. Within ten days from today, the two will follow and act together..."

Liu Ning and Sun Chuan were already standing up and preparing to clasp their fists and speak, footsteps sounded outside.

The one who came in was Shen Chang, the chief banner of the Jinyiwei.

Seeing Chen Chang, Cao Huachun was stunned for a moment, and his face became solemn. After Lu Yuanda went to the capital, Chen Chang was already the emperor's personal guard and stayed in the palace at all times. According to Cao Huachun's prediction, Chen Chang was likely to serve as the deputy commander or even commander of the Jinyiwei.

The liquidation of the Donglin Party members was the most concerned thing that the emperor paid the most and was also an important guarantee for the court to gain a stable foothold in the south. However, so far, this matter has been carried out in secret and did not disturb the outside world. Qian Qianyi and Wu Weiye were detained in prison. Although some people questioned and even found the whereabouts of the two, the explanation given by the government was to find out some of the situation. After Qian Qianyi sent the letter to his family, it basically dispelled the outside world's suspicion.

While Cao Huachun was fully arranging and deploying the liquidation of the Donglin Party members, the emperor suddenly sent Chen Chang to come, indicating that the matter was not fully disclosed and the government just now did not discuss the matter directly.

"Mr. Cao, the emperor ordered the emperor to say that the court did not discuss the evil deeds of Qian Qianyi and others. This created a momentum and had a reasonable and well-founded task. Please be sure to grasp it."

Cao Huachun hurried forward and when he was about to kneel down, Chen Chang waved his hand.

"Mr. Cao, the emperor specifically instructed that this matter must be completed within ten days. The court has other more important things to deal with. The critical situation in the north is still developing. The court must find ways to control the critical situation in the north."

Cao Huachun nodded and bowed to Chen Chang with his fists.

"I understand. Please rest assured that I will complete the task within ten days."

Chen Chang was also very happy, and bowed to Cao Huachun with fists, looked at everyone, nodded and turned around and left.

When Cao Huachun turned around, he looked at Xiang Zujiang and Shi Minghui.

"Mr. Xiang, Mr. Shi, we are the people most trusted by the emperor. We must not let down the emperor's trust. The emperor's oral order just now must have a profound meaning. Please help me."

This time, the answer was Shi Minghui.

"Mr. Cao, I think that the treacherous Li Zicheng captured the capital and the death of the emperor. In this case, the court must be angry and all of them want to kill Li Zicheng. However, in the current situation, the emperor cannot take into account the situation in the north. It must be to stabilize the situation in the south and then consider the situation in the north. In this way, the task of liquidating the Donglin Party members is the top priority. The emperor lets us show the bad behavior of the Donglin Party members and calm the emotions in the court..."

Cao Huachun couldn't help but walk to Shi Minghui and patted him on the shoulder.

"Okay, okay, thank you Mr. Shi for your analysis. I was enlightened. If our family does not understand the emperor's profound meaning, it will definitely make a mistake."

Speaking of this, Cao Huachun looked at Yang Wencong, Li Jizhou, Liu Ning and Sun Chuan again.

"General Liu Qi, General Sun Qi, you will have to work hard. Our family thinks that Qian Qianyi's confession is far from enough. The evil deeds of merchants you have discovered in collusion with the Donglin Party members must also be shown, so some people in the court have nothing to say."

"Mr. Yang, Lord Li, this action must be quick and not delayed at all. The situation in Southern Zhili and the South must be stabilized and there must be no mistakes. If a scholar dares to come forward and make trouble, he will be severely punished."

Everyone looked at Cao Huachun, bowed their fists and bowed their heads.
