Since the orthodox dynasty of the Ming Dynasty, whether it is a civil servant or a military general, whether it is a eunuch or a palace maid, his courage has become more and more powerful.

As for the reason, it is actually very simple, because Emperor Yingzong of Ming Dynasty almost completely lost the imperial guards who relied on to shock the world.

If the emperor had more than 100,000 elite imperial guards in his hands, who would dare to seize power at any time, and who would dare to kill the monarch at any time?

At the beginning, these people didn't dare to be too arrogant. Even if they wanted to kill the regicide, they would come secretly, for fear of being known.

However, after the Wanli Dynasty, these people were so brave that they were bullying the world. Because Wanli had never fought against the civil service group in the dispute over the foundation of the country, they simply gave up on themselves and stopped attending court!

The Emperor of Ming Dynasty is so cowardly, and all kinds of cruel people are not unscrupulous!

As soon as Wanli died, Concubine Zheng simply joined forces with the civil servant group to make Taichang!

As a result, there is nothing wrong with it.

Xi Li was also brave and even held Tianqi in his hand to prevent others from seeing the court officials.

Li Xuanshi, to put it bluntly, even if she is a palace maid, she dares to be so bold, which further encourages the arrogance of others.

Therefore, Tianqi became the emperor who was in name only for seven years, making a joke that "the world only knows that there is nine thousand years but no emperor", and then was killed in a confused manner.

Chongzhen actually wanted to revive the royal family's prestige, but his ability was limited. In addition, internal and external troubles and natural disasters continued, so he was unable to make up for the truth.

As for the later Emperor Hongguang, Emperor Longwu, and Emperor Yongli, they are basically puppets held in the hands of civil officials and military generals, without any power.

History flashed through Taichang's mind, his eyes became colder and more ruthless, and they were a little scary.

You guys don't take me seriously, right?

Come on, let me see how many brave ones are today!

After Shao Fuzhong was dragged down, he turned his head and looked coldly at Duke Xu Hongji of Wei.

If the small court in Nanjing wants to mobilize the garrison to do something, then it must be the eunuchs, the garrisons, the nobles of the garrison and the Minister of War in Nanjing signed and sealed together. This is the rule.

Now, the eunuch Chen Zeng, the governor of the Nanjing Ministry of War, has been found out, leaving only the Nanjing garrison noble Xu Hongji.

It is impossible for this person to kill the nine clans.

Because Emperor Yongle's empress Xu is the eldest daughter of King Xu Da of Zhongshan and the biological mother of Renzong Zhu Gaochi.

In other words, the emperors after Emperor Yongle actually all had the blood of the Xu family.

Moreover, even if the royal relatives rebelled, they would not be able to kill the nine clans, because the nine clans included the emperor himself.

Therefore, even if the prince rebelled, he would only be demoted to the common people and went to Fengyang to guard the tombs and would not be beheaded.

This has been the case since the Hongwu Dynasty.

As for other royal relatives, they usually do not behead themselves if they plot rebellion and rebellion, and at most they are placed under house arrest until death.

The relatives do not recognize each other, which has been a taboo since ancient times. Although the emperors of the Ming Dynasty were cruel, not many people killed their own people.

The most fierce one in the Zhu family was the Jingshen of King Yan. The reason why Emperor Chengzu of Ming Dynasty was cruel to Emperor Yunwen was because of the vassalization. His uncles and nephews became enemies, and neither side regarded each other as their own.

In fact, the Ming Chengzu was not so inhumane to his own people. For example, Xu Huizu, the ancestor of Duke of Wei, defeated the Yan army several times, causing Chengzu Zhu Di to almost fail in the crisis. In this way, Chengzu finally just cut him off his title and put him under house arrest.

This Duke of Wei, Xu Hongji, Taichang, was not ready to kill, because it was impossible to kill all the officials in Jinling. Then, he kept killing, killing all the people in Jinling, killing all the people in Jinling, killing all the people in the capital, that would be a pure brain disease.

He has to give people some hope, otherwise, how dare they plead guilty? What if they plead guilty, would it be a killing?

Just so, according to the rules of the ancestors, Xu Hongji can spare him once.

Therefore, Taichang is preparing to give him a chance to be a role model for being lighter.

Of course, if Xu Hongji is not tactful, there is nothing he can do. It’s still the same word, kill!

Since you are so brave, then kill your courage!

Xu Hongji looked at Taichang's cold and infatuating eyes and suddenly felt cold.

He hesitated for a moment, but still staggered out of the train, lay on the imperial road and said tremblingly: "I deserve to die, intending to murder the emperor. I plead guilty and ask the emperor to give him a lighter sentence."

You know what you know.

Taichang nodded slightly, then said coldly: "I cannot break my promise. Since you have voluntarily confessed, I will give up the blame. You will go back and think about your mistakes. You must not step out of the mansion in this life, pass the imperial edict, remove the Duke of Wei, and all Xu Hongji's lineage will be demoted to common people."

Upon hearing this, Xu Hongji couldn't help but lie on the ground and cried: "I deserve to die. My conscience is really eaten by a dog. He actually made such a rebellious act. I am sorry to the emperor, I am sorry to my ancestors and ancestors..."

Why are you crying here? Haven’t you seen me doing serious business?

Taichang waved helplessly: "Drag it down."

The two Jinyiwei immediately stepped forward and left with Xu Hongji.

Next, will these people be honest about it?

This killing chickens has killed two nests, and it has been a demonstration since it was a lighter attack. Should these people be tactful?

Taichang deliberately stopped for about a cup of tea without saying a word, but no one stood up to plead guilty!

Did I make a mistake?

OK, I will continue to set the correct demonstration and continue to kill!

He couldn't help but snorted coldly, "I've given you a chance. Since you don't know how to cherish it, then let's continue, next one, Li Hongji."

With a "Baji", a man in the queue of Duke and Qualifications suddenly collapsed on the ground. Needless to ask, it was naturally Li Hongji, the Marquis of Linhuai.

Taichang winked, and immediately two Jinyiwei came forward to drag Li Hongji to the imperial road in the middle.

Immediately afterwards, he said coldly: "Li Hongji, did you expose my whereabouts?"

Li Hongji trembled and said, "Your Majesty, it's unfair!"

Taichang mocked: "I am wronged? Then why do you look like this?"

Li Hongji was speechless, how do you explain this?

Taichang snorted coldly, then shouted: "Drag it down and chop it!"

ah!

Can this work?

Without any evidence, I directly cut off a marquis!

Isn't the emperor crazy?

This is not enough.

Taichang then said coldly again: "Issuing an order to remove the title of Marquis of Linhuai, and all Li Hongji's lineage was demoted to common people. Li Zushu was beheaded and displayed in public. The rest were sent to Xubian three thousand miles away!"

ah?

At this time, someone had already started to tremble. The emperor ignored the evidence and killed him if he caught him. Who could bear it?

Question, they have no choice but to guard tens of thousands of imperial guards outside, who dares to resist?

However, everyone was still lucky and no one came forward to confess his guilt, because the emperor dealt with people who were planning to rebel against the regicide, and the mastermind could not find too many people to participate in the plan, because there were too many people and it was easy to leak information.

Therefore, except for Chen Zeng, Shao Fuzhong and Xu Hongji, others basically didn't know it, and even Li Hongji, the Marquis of Linhuai, didn't know it, so he only provided information.

As for the others, they naturally didn't participate if they didn't know, so everyone was still lucky.

These people are so brave. Look at me, I won’t kill you today!

Taichang snorted coldly, then called out: "Next, Fan Jishi."

With a "bangji", another person collapsed in front of the six trains. It was Fan Jishi, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue in Nanjing.

This time, Taichang didn't wink, and the two Jinyiwei went up and dragged him to the middle of the imperial road.

Taichang stared at him and said coldly: "You are not bad. You take the lead in corruption and give half of the salt department tax!"

Fan Jishi was so scared that he cried: "Your Majesty, you're wronged!"

Unjust?

Taichang directly ordered: "Drag it down and chop it!"

He didn't stop and then continued: "Next, Zhang Pu."

With a "bangji", another one fell in front of the six trains. It was Zhang Pu, the Minister of Justice of Nanjing.

Soon, he was dragged to the middle of the imperial road.

Taichang stared at him and said coldly: "I ask you, what does the Ministry of Justice do?"

Zhang Pu trembled and said: "The Ministry of Justice is in charge of criminal laws and regulations and review of criminal names, and at the same time, he is in charge of inspection with the Censorate, and Dali Temple is in charge of the trial and review of major cases."

Taichang couldn't help but mocked: "You know what the Ministry of Justice does. I thought you didn't know. You are amazing. You don't care about your business and use your power to frame good people and blackmail them!"

Zhang Pu was embarrassed to even call him wronged because he made money like this.

Seeing this, Taichang said without hesitation: "Drag it down and chop it!"

Now, some people finally couldn't hold on anymore. All the six ministers of the ministers cut down three of them. Will the emperor still be lenient?

If you don’t plead guilty quickly, it may be your turn next!

Their courage was really destroyed!

So, as soon as Taichang looked up, someone walked out of the train and knelt down in the middle of the imperial road and said in panic: "Your Majesty, please forgive me, I plead guilty!"

This person took the lead and the next thing was amazing. I don’t know how many people rushed out of the train and knelt in the middle of the imperial road to confess their guilt.

Seeing this, Taichang couldn't help but snorted coldly.

Humph, I really can't cure you!
Chapter completed!
