Taichang looked at the civil servants and military generals lying on the imperial road and frowned slightly.

It is a good thing for these people to come out and confess their guilt. It is a problem. It is impossible for them to listen to them one by one to state their evidence like reading memorials, and then deal with it one by one.

There were more than 200 people lying in the middle of the imperial road. If they came one by one, they would probably not be able to finish all night today.

He thought for a while and then asked, "You all read books, have you?"

Of course, even if the civil servants present are not Jinshi, they are at least a scholar or a scholar. Otherwise, they should be very officials, and as for military generals, they should at least be able to understand military orders. They can’t even understand military orders. How can they lead troops to fight?

Everyone doesn’t know what the emperor is going to do, but it’s just right to nod.

Taichang also nodded slightly, and then said lightly: "Then I will give you a title, the title is "On My Dirty Officialdom Life". You go back and write it carefully, and discuss the good things you have done. If you have a good discussion, I will spare you and be lenient. If you talk nonsense and try to escape the blame, I don't care about killing a few more corrupt officials or using power for personal gain!"

What question is this?

Logically speaking, the emperor has to find the titles in the "Four Books and Five Classics"?

When a group of civil and military officials heard this, they were stunned.

Seeing this, Taichang couldn't help but sternly: "What? You don't want to answer the questions I have asked, right?"

How dare we?

You are crazy. If someone dares to say something wrong, you will just kill you if you don’t even click!

A group of corrupt officials shook their heads and said, "I dare not, I dare not."

Taichang waved his hand impatiently: "Then go back and write it well. I will present my articles tomorrow morning. I will give it a slight statement as I please."

When everyone heard this, they kowtowed and left.

By the way, just let them go back, wouldn’t Taichang worry about them running away?

Taichang is really not worried. These days, there are checkpoints everywhere and patrols everywhere. It is not that easy to run away, especially those who are officials who take their families and follow their families. Even if they run away by themselves, their families will not be able to run away.

Nowadays, I’m not guilty of being as guilty as my family. If you dare to run away, your family will be finished!

Just like morning court, many people know that they have committed a death sentence, so they still have to go to court and run, which basically does not exist.

There is naturally a reason why Taichang is so anxious to drive people away, because he has to deal with the remaining people next.

Since these people still dare to stand and not plead guilty, they are probably not doing anything bad.

They should know that if they dare to stand here after doing bad things, they are seeking death!

Of course, it is not ruled out that there are still people who are lucky.

Taichang slowly glanced around, roughly nodded, and then said seriously: "I will give you another last chance. Is there anyone who stands up and confesses to his own guilt?"

Obviously, no, no one moved.

It seems that what remains are either without problems, or the kind of scheming.

Taichang nodded slightly, then said, "Shi Gao, you guys retreat first."

What you mean is naturally the confidants he brought to you. These people are not officials in Jinling City, so it doesn’t make any sense to stay.

When Bi Maoliang and others heard this, they hurriedly bowed their hands and said.

Immediately afterwards, Taichang said, "Luo Yangxing, go ahead."

Get along?

What guy is on?

It's not a torture instrument!

Several of the civil officials and military generals left behind were in a slight change in their faces.

They must have problems.

However, what comes up is not torture instruments, but small tables and four treasures of the study, which are the things used in the palace trial.

He had actually had the idea of ​​setting questions for a long time, otherwise he would not have thought of it at once. However, he originally wanted to give questions for the remaining people, so he only prepared 100 sets of things for trials. There were more than 200 corrupt officials, so naturally he could not answer the questions on the spot.

The Jinyiwei brought things up like a long dragon. Soon, a hundred sets of things for trial were neatly arranged on both sides of the imperial road.

Taichang then pointed to the tables and said, "You sit down first according to the grade."

There are less than a hundred people left, and they are on the ranks, so it will naturally not take much time to sit down in this row.

Soon, everyone sat down.

Taichang said directly: "I also gave you a question, the title is "Good will be rewarded with good and evil will be rewarded with evil". You should know all those present. You will comment on the people present, who are good people and who are bad people. Except for you, everyone else must evaluate them. List the names of other people first. OK, just write them well after the name. Don't know, just write them behind the name. If you think they are bad people, write them behind the name, and write them where they are bad. It's limited to one hour. OK, and start answering the questions now."

Now, some people's faces changed drastically.

As the saying goes, "If you want others to know, don't do it yourself." There are a few people who are more scheming and think that the emperor doesn't know what they have done, so they dare not stand there and not plead guilty.

The problem, the emperor doesn’t know that there will always be someone who knows it. If someone here knows it and shakes them out, it will be over!

Taichang observed it secretly and realized it. Those faces changed drastically, and there must be problems. Even if no one offered them, they would not be able to use them.

The reason why he asked this question was to make the final screening.

After all, there are so many officials in Nanzhili. Now, the six ministers and even the six ministers have basically confessed their guilt. There must be someone to take over these positions. He doesn’t have so many confidants. Therefore, among these people, everyone has agreed that they will basically promote and reuse them. No one has said that they are bad, and no one has said that they are bad. They stay in their original position. As for those who have problems, no matter what the problems are, they are dead.

If you don’t talk about anything else, just talking about deceiving the king, you should be killed!

This question is not difficult. After an hour, everyone had finished answering the question, put down their brushes, and sat there honestly waiting.

Seeing this, Taichang waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's go back."

When everyone heard this, they hurriedly bowed and said goodbye.

Seeing that everyone had walked out of Fengtian Gate, Taichang got up and slowly walked to a table, picked up a brush, and drew a big fork at the answer sheet on the table.

This man's face just became the most powerful. Then, he walked to several other tables and drew a few forks. Then he said to Luo Yangxing, who was beside him: "Okay, put away all these test papers, put them in a stack of forks, and send them to the Imperial Study Room."

After this morning court, all the civil and military officials in Jinling City were silent, and none of them dared to jump around again.

They really didn't expect that the emperor was so cruel. He didn't care about it and killed all the high-ranking officials in Jinling City, and even killed nine clans!

Those who made a mistake but were not killed were very lucky after returning to touch their necks. Fortunately, they saw the opportunity quickly. Otherwise, who would know if the next one would be me!

They were really afraid because the emperor was too decisive to kill people. As long as they thought they should be cut, they would drag them out and would not give anyone any chance!

No one can stand it if he kills like this.

The Ming Dynasty has not seen an emperor who kills and decisively like the current emperor for a long time. Taichang's performance directly reminds people of the two ancestors of Hongwu and Yongle. Only those two ancestors were so decisive when they killed civil officials and military officials.

Such an emperor is really scary, so these people dare not neglect after returning. It seems a bit ridiculous to say that they are guilty of themselves, but none of them dare not do anything.

Of course, it is unknown how much they will discuss and whether they will avoid the most important things.
