But the headache is useless. Since Emperor Chongzhen has already said that he wants the Jinyiwei to participate, the Jinyiwei must participate.

Although Emperor Chongzhen also said that the Jinyiwei only allowed him to carry his eyes, it was precisely because these guys only brought his eyes and ears, and when they reported to Emperor Chongzhen after they returned...

It is precisely because of this that Fang Zhuangli and Chen Yuting are extremely messy.

But when the news of the Beijing Chase spread, it was not just Fang Zhuangli and Chen Yuting who were messy.

All the officials in the entire Ming Dynasty capital were in chaos.

In the past, the Beijing Campaign was just a process of just about the same meaning.

In this process, there will definitely be corrupt people being caught, there will definitely be "retirement" and returning home if they are old, and some unlucky guys will be demoted and transferred from outside.

Of course, some talents will also be "discovered" and promoted.

In this process, the big guys in charge of the Beijing inspection will gain a good reputation, at least in the Shilin.

But the emperors in the past were not as shameless as Emperor Chongzhen.

In the past, the emperors secretly sent Jinyiwei to investigate, and even if they knew, whether for the sake of the court or for other reasons, these emperors would choose to endure and not send a message.

But Emperor Chongzhen is different.

This typical shameless emperor in history was not only the early Western Han Dynasty, such as Liu Bang, Liu Qi, and Liu Che.

Needless to say, Liu Bang had done all the things that took off his Confucian scholar's hat and urinated in public.

Liu Qi was also a big bull. He used the title of a crown prince to fool Liang King Liu Wu and the rebellious princes of the seven kingdoms to fight to the death. As a result, after the rebellion of the Seven Kings was quelled, Liu Qi seemed to have amnesia and forgot about the matter of the crown prince.

The last one, Liu Che, was even more awesome. A four-year-old child could actually say something like hiding a sweetheart in the golden house.

But after ascending the throne and becoming emperor, even though he was almost deposed by Empress Dowager Dou during the new policy of Jianyuan, he relied on the protection of his aunt Princess Tao Jiao's mother to save the throne. Liu Che and Liu Yezhu still expressed his despise of Chen Ajiao, and finally came up with the story of "a thousand gold to buy a fortune".

Later, all the emperors in the Central Plains never had such shamelessness.

However, such an emperor appeared in the Ming Dynasty.

He swaggered the factory guards and fooled the vassal kings to replace their fiefdoms, allowing their men to capture slaves.

Anyway, you do whatever you are shameless.

And now we finally started to attack Jingzha.

The Jinyiwei was inserted into the Jinyiwei openly during the Beijing Inspection, and it was impossible to find any reason. The most important thing was that Emperor Chongzhen also tied the cabinet and the bosses of the six ministries together through such a distant pie in overseas fiefdom.

The current situation is that officials of all sizes in the capital are carrying gifts to move around the world, but they can't find a door all over the world.

Whether it is the cabinet or the bosses of the six ministries, one is counted as one, and no gifts are received or no one is seen. Usually the housekeeper in the mansion brings out a sentence: "You should do it yourself."

If you ask further, you can't ask anything.

Except for those who are truly confident or who simply give up, the remaining part of the people who are not confident but are unwilling to lose, they start a series of actions.

However, this is exactly what Emperor Chongzhen expected to muddle the water to make it easier to fish.

Looking at Xu Xianchun and Tian Ergeng who were standing bent, Emperor Chongzhen knocked on the table and said, "Let them go. After returning, notify Wei Liangqing, you and the three of you will prepare the Jinyiwei and do it directly as I told you tomorrow."

After Xu Xianchun and Tian Ergeng bowed, Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand and ordered the two to retreat, and he also turned back to the harem.

When the next day, when the court meeting was held, he looked at the court where there were a large number of people missing. Emperor Chongzhen smiled and said, "Where are you? Where have you all the dear friends?"

The Minister of Personnel's Office had a magnificent and strange expression on his face and said, "I will start the report to Your Majesty, and there are colleagues of different numbers of people in each department to resign."

Emperor Chongzhen smiled and said, "Talk all their resignation documents to me."

After someone received his resignation from the Ministry of Personnel, Emperor Chongzhen looked at him one by one.

After seeing more than a dozen seals, Emperor Chongzhen suddenly smiled and said, "Chief Cao Yubian, the Censor of the Censorate, resigned?"

Governor Shuntian Youdu Censor Wang Yingxiu resigned?

Shen Yongmao, the Minister of War, resigned?"

After sneering, Emperor Chongzhen continued, "Who else has not had time to report it yet? Hum?"

Most of the remaining people in the court are villains called "eunuchs" and "treacherous" people. Who would jump out and find it unhappy at this time?

Emperor Chongzhen thought about it and felt that his temper was unreasonable.

After sneering, Emperor Chongzhen continued, "Since you resign, then let me go. Xu Xianchun, where is Tian Ergeng?"

After Xu Xianchun and Tian Ergeng got out of the shift together, he bowed and said, "I am here."

Emperor Chongzhen swept dozens of memorials from the imperial case underground and said, "Take people according to their name, and all the edicts are issued to be sentenced to be tried. After the inspection of the capital, those who are innocent will be released, and those who are guilty will be handed over to the Yousi Department for their crimes."

Fang Zhuangli, Xu Xianchun and Tian Ergeng should have gone out before, said: "I think it is not possible to report to Your Majesty. Now, there are dozens of officials with nearly a hundred people in the capital. If it is expanded to the Ming Dynasty, how many will there be?

I think it is better to let these officials go back than to arrest these officials at once, otherwise the government and the country will be shaken and the world will be uneasy."

Emperor Chongzhen sneered: "If you catch it, you are all habitual. Who gives them the courage to play this kind of non-resistance struggle with me?"

Seeing Fang Zhuangli and wanted to speak, Emperor Chongzhen interrupted: "The Ministry of Personnel has worked hard for a while and has given up all the scammers, and then select the capable ones from the six ministries to be sent to the county magistrates.

The capable county magistrate was promoted to the provincial magistrate, and the provincial magistrate was promoted to the first level of the Bu Zhengshi Department, and the provincial magistrate was promoted to various departments as officials.

As for these bastards…”

After a pause, Emperor Chongzhen continued to sneer: "Wang Cheng'en, I'll draw an order."

After Wang Chengen bowed, Emperor Chongzhen pointed to the memorial on the ground and said, "He issued an edict to be sentenced to the prison. All officials in the nine clans were dismissed. The imperial examinations were not allowed to be held within three generations, and those who were disciples and students were demoted to one level. The teacher was fined for half a year."

After Wang Chengen sorted out all the memorials on the ground and wrote down all the names, he ordered the eunuch to give all the memorials to Xu Xianchun and Tian Ergeng.

After Xu Xianchun and Tian Ergeng went out to get people, Emperor Chongzhen continued to sneer: "Official positions are public instruments. They regard public instruments as children's plays. If they want to be officials, they will do it. Once they are dissatisfied, they will think of retiring and returning home. Who taught them the bastard?"

In less than a day, the entire capital was filled with Jinyiwei's cavalry, causing a big mess.

Cao Yubian was chatting with Wang Yingxi in the study at this time.

Wang Yingxi smiled and said to Cao Yubian: "Your Majesty acts in thunder and wind, and he is also a righteous plot, but he still underestimates the scholars in the world."

Cao Yubian sneered and said, "Mencius said, "If a king treats his ministers as his hands and feet, then his ministers will regard him as his heart; if a king treats his ministers as dogs and horses, then his ministers will regard him as his countrymen; if a king treats his ministers as earth, then his ministers will regard him as enemies."

Now that Your Majesty values ​​factory guards and regards us as righteous gentlemen as eunuchs and villains, isn’t that right? What does the Assassin say that the king treats his ministers as earthly mustard?

In the Song Dynasty, Su Xueshu's "Fan Zeng Lun" also said that if it is combined, it will stay; if it is not combined, it will leave.

If I don’t do anything wrong today, I should retreat to the world and worry about it.”

However, as soon as Cao Yubian finished speaking, a voice came from outside the door, saying, "There is no need to worry about Your Majesty when you are far away from the world. You should go to the imperial prison to worry about yourself!"

Cao Yubian and Wang Yingxi's faces changed drastically.

As soon as the words outside the door fell, the door of the study was pushed open with a creaking sound. Xu Xianchun walked in with a folding fan.

Cao Yubian said angrily: "Haog! We have already retired. Are you going to be imprisoned? What do you think of national laws?"

Xu Xianchun felt that there was no need to argue with a dying person, and sneered: "Since both of you are together, it has saved Xu a lot of effort. Please give up, please?"

Cao Yubian and Wang Yingxiu snorted coldly, but did not take it seriously. They followed the Jinyiwei brought by Xu Xianchun.

Only when he arrived in the yard did he see that his relatives and servants were driven to the same place and seals were started in each room, Cao Yubian and Wang Yingxi truly realized that Emperor Chongzhen must have taken ruthless action.

But thinking about the resignation submitted by nearly a hundred colleagues this time, the two of them felt a little more confident.

Xu Xianchun felt funny when he saw the two of them being calm and calm, but he didn't say anything. He just waved his hand and ordered people to take them to the imperial prison, and then took the other Jinyiwei to the next family.

Before noon, the cells in the imperial prison were basically filled with these ministers and family members.

After all the people who handed over the resignation together gathered in the cell, Cao Yubian's face changed and whispered: "You are all taken to the imperial prison? What do you think today?"

Before anyone else could answer, the prison guard outside the prison gate suddenly shouted: "Shut up! If you dare to make noise, each person will whip ten times!"

Cao Yubian said angrily: "Even if we are issued a prison, we are still the imperial court official. How dare you a small prisoner abuse lynching?"

When the prison guard heard this, he sneered, pulled out his whip and dipped it in salt water, and opened the prison door and sucked it towards Cao Yubian.

The whip used by the Jinyiwei to execute the punishment was the same as the whip used in the former Sui Dynasty, with barbs on it.

With a whip, in addition to the tearing of the clothes, even the flesh on his body was brought out with small eyes.

What's even more tricky is that the prison guard also got salt water and entered his skin, which was so painful.

That hot feeling is so beautiful that it cannot be described in words.

Cao Yubian rolled all over the ground and kept wailing, but none of the people next to him dared to come over.

After whipping ten whips, the prison guard laughed and said, "I'm not going to resign, so why are you talking about the imperial court officials? Besides, there are so many imperial court officials who died in the imperial prison, and you are not bad."

But after saying that, the prison guard sneered again: "Mr. Cao and his colleagues are really loyal, but no one can help you. Haha, good colleagues, loyalty..."

After saying that, the jailer laughed wildly and left the cell.

At this time, the officials next to him rushed forward and helped Cao Yubian up. They gathered around him and whispered to him and condemn the jailer's brutal behavior.

Although Cao Yubian had a very painful body, his heart was already cold.

There were ten whips, and none of the people next to them helped, or reached out to help, but they only came to show their attention after they were beaten.

No wonder Cao Xueqi, who said something profound in his own family, said, "Everyone is always a dog slaughter, but most of his unfaithfulness is a scholar" when he was deciding the case in the second year of Tianqi.

Cao Yubian tidied up his clothes that were almost turned into strips of cloth and said lightly: "It's nothing, just bear with this little injury."

Although he was tough, the corners of his mouth that kept twitching still betrayed the extent of the pain Cao Yubian suffered at this time.
