Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, if the emperor had any news to spread to the world, he would generally use "edicts".↖In the past, such edicts that had been reported to the world were rarely seen throughout the year. However, recently, edicts like this were very common, and one could be seen almost every three days.

"The former commander of the Jinyiwei, Zhong Bin, abused his power and harmed loyal and kind, and greedy for 800,000 taels of silver. He was extremely evil and could not be forgiven. After being tried by the Three Divisions, the emperor's cinnabar pen was criticized for red, and he was scheduled to behead him outside the Meridian Gate on xx, xx, and was beheaded outside the Meridian Gate."

"The former Minister of War Wang Shouren colluded with rebels and planned to usurp the throne in the court. This rioters and traitors were guilty of their crimes. Their mistakes were too numerous to be written. According to the Ming Dynasty, they were determined to be executed on the sequel outside the Meridian Gate on the xx month of xx year, and to punish the nine tribes of the Yi."

"Former Minister of Rites Yan Luo..."

The contents of several consecutive edicts were all about killing the important ministers in the court whom Jiang Xia relied on when he was in power. It is obvious that everyone can see that the emperor has firmly held the throne and is ready to settle the accounts of Jiang Xia usurping the throne.

For a time, all the Jiang-type people were in danger. Some wrote the "Letter of Crime" in capital and admitted their mistakes to Zhu Zaijiang, and some fled their families while the night was dark. Of course, there were also some proud Jiang-type people who wrote letters together, asking Zhu Zaijiang to exempt Wang Shouren and Yan Luo from death.

Zhu Zaijiang naturally would not be polite to these people. The re-established Dongchang and the Jinyiwei who replaced Zhu Zaijiang's confidant ministers took the people according to their names. All the ministers who wrote the letter together were thrown into the Heavenly Prison.

Whether it is the old fox in the officialdom who has been living in the officialdom for many years or the knowledgeable people among the people, they all think this is a great purge to break bridges across the river, and it is a wave of political turmoil that was considered in the past.

But in fact, only a few people who know the inside story will understand that Zhu Zaijiang's real purpose is to do this. That is... forcing Jiang Xia to appear in the capital by himself.

In the Qianqing Palace, after reading the news from the East Factory, the Jinyiwei, and the Dragon Guardian clan, Zhu Zaijiang was so angry that he swept all the memorials on the Dragon Case to the ground.

"Waste! All are waste! So many people have surrounded one Fujian but can't find a mere Jiang Xia. What do I want you to do? What do you do!" Zhu Zaijiang's eyes came from Li Bayi, Hua Zanghun, and the current head of Kongkongmen Sikong Yuning.

Faced with Zhu Zaijiang's anger, the three of them all lowered their heads and did not respond. The angry Zhu Zaijiang slapped the dragon's desk with a "bang" and stared at Sikong Yuning and said, "Yu Ning, you go to Fujian in person, be sure to find Jiang Xia."

"Yes!" Sikong Yuning responded and immediately took a step back and retreated from Qianqing Palace.

After watching Sikong Yuning withdraw from the palace gate, Zhu Zaijiang sighed and waved his hand and said, "Okay, you guys should retreat too, I want to be alone and quiet."

"I'm leaving." Li Bayi and Hua Zanghun bowed together.

With the two of them withdrawing, Zhu Zaijiang was the only one left in the Qianqing Palace. He leaned his head on the dragon chaise and closed his eyes and slept for a while. Suddenly, he jumped up and got up and walked out of the Qianqing Palace.

After leaving the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Zaijiang walked directly to the harem. Originally, Zhu Zaijiang should have a group of ceremonial guards accompanying him wherever he went, but Zhu Zaijiang stopped them from following him. When he arrived at the door of Kunning Palace, the eunuch guarding outside the palace gate immediately shouted loudly: "The emperor is here..."

The Kunning Palace immediately became busy. All the eunuchs and palace maids who were not serving the queen in close proximity ran out of Kunning Palace and hurriedly saluted Zhu Zaijiang. Zhu Zaijiang waved his hand and then walked into Kunning Palace.

In the palace, the nurse responsible for taking care of the prince was coaxing the prince to sleep. After Zhu Zaijiang walked into the palace, a group of palace maids who served Cui Ziwei bowed to Zhu Zaijiang. Just as he was about to shout long live, Zhu Zaijiang immediately waved his hand, stretched his right index finger on his lips, and made a move to silence.

Zhu Zaijiang walked in front of the nurse and looked at the little prince in the nurse's arms with a loving look on his face. The little prince was sleeping peacefully. Zhu Zaijiang looked at it for a while and then signaled the nurse to carry the little prince out of Kunning Palace. After the nurse retreated, Zhu Zaijiang retreated from the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace.

At this moment, Cui Ziwei, who was sitting at the round table, looked at Zhu Zaijiang with trembling lips, and said incoherently: "What do you... do you want to do?"

"What do I want to do? You don't know?" Zhu Zaijiang said this coldly, then walked directly to the inner hall of Kunning Palace to get a horse whip. When Cui Ziwei saw Zhu Zaijiang like this, she quickly stood up and wanted to run away. But Zhu Zaijiang waved his right hand and whipped it down with a fierce whip.

Pa! Ah... Pa! Ah... Accompanied by the whip, Cui Ziwei cried and howled. This nightmare sound lasted for a stick of incense.

After the fight, Zhu Zaijiang, who was sweating profusely, threw down his whip and walked out of Kunning Palace. When the palace maids and eunuchs saw him, they seemed to see a devil walking out of the abyss. When their legs were weak, they knelt on the ground and shouted, "Give me a respectful gift to the emperor."

Zhu Zaijiang took a few steps and said to everyone with his back: "Please ask the imperial doctor to apply medicine to the queen, so I can watch the queen. If she has a few shortcomings, all of you will have to pay your life together!"

After saying that, Zhu Zaijiang walked away.

After leaving Kunning Palace, Zhu Zaijiang ordered Hua Zanghun to accompany him and left the palace directly. Hua Zanghun drove a carriage and took him to the entrance of Xiaoyao Villa according to Zhu Zaijiang's wishes.

Now Xiaoyao Villa has long been surrounded by Zhu Zaijiang's people. Anyone inside will be followed by more than a dozen people when they go out, and it is impossible for people outside to enter. Simply put, the people in Xiaoyao Villa have been under house arrest.

The carriage stopped at the door of Xiaoyao Villa. Zhu Zaijiang stared at the four words "Xiaoyao Villa", not knowing what he was thinking. Hua Zhanhun, who was beside him, couldn't help but whisper: "Master, we have all released our intention to kill Wang Shouren and Zhong Bin, but Jiang Xia still had no movement at all. Could it be that he didn't pay attention to them at all? Otherwise... let's pull Jiang Xia's wife and son to kill a few more."

Zhu Zaijiang's eyes turned slightly, and after thinking for a long time, he said, "I will issue another edict to the world. Jiang Xia does not think about the kindness of the holy people, and the crime of usurping the throne is extremely evil. I think he has died outside the pass, so I will no longer implicate his family. But the death penalty can be avoided, and the crime of living cannot be spared. Ten days later, all the female members of the Jiang family will be included in the Jiaofangsi as prostitutes!"

"Yes, I am following the order." Hua Zanghun's eyes lit up suddenly, and his saliva was almost falling out. He rubbed his hands and asked Zhu Zaijiang tentatively: "Your Majesty, can I find a few beauties from Xiaoyao Villa in the past few days to come out and have fun?"

Zhu Zaijiang looked at Hua Zanghun coldly and said lightly: "If you want to die, you can do this."

Hua Zanghun's neck shrank and he quickly silenced. However, he added in his heart: "Jiangxia has not been moving until now, so people must be in Fujian. From Fujian to the capital, I don't believe that he will arrive in ten days. Ten days later, I will definitely play all the beauties in Xiaoyao Villa first, and then send them to the Jiafangsi."
