"Now the prince has lost his morality and has indulged his subordinates in doing things indiscriminately and disregarded the national laws. Therefore, he removed the position of Prince Mingyu and expelled him from the Prince's Eastern Palace to serve as a warning to others."

"The prince's companion to read Sun Bin is despicable and greedy. The prince's kindness is not thought of, and the prince's kindness is not reflected in the hearts of the people. He is corrupt and abused the law. He ordered all his positions to be eliminated and his family property is confiscated. He will not be allowed to be an official for life."

"The prince washed his horse and Shen Mingqin..."

"The prince accompanied Lin Yao..."

"Zhu Zhe belongs to the Prince's East Palace..."

“…”

The sudden posting of these imperial edicts made the people in the capital stunned.

They wanted to eat melons.

But unexpectedly, the emperor actually gave such a big melon, which was a bit unbearable.

The prince... the prince was beaten?

Is it so exaggerated?

He is the crown prince of the country! He is the future emperor!

Now that I suddenly lose this identity, doesn’t that mean that the crown prince has another suspense?

The emperor is not only him, he is also a longevity king in the palace!

But King Shou was only eight years old, so how could he bear the burden of the prince?

If the emperor had any 30-year-old emperors, who were less than ten years old, or even a teenager ascended the throne... Isn't this a joke?

The people were very reluctant to believe it, but the imperial edict had been issued, so naturally they could not be faked.

What's more, there has been news from the imperial city that the prince...the former prince Mingyu has indeed moved out of the Eastern Palace and moved to a prince's mansion next to it.

After all, although the former crown prince is no longer the crown prince, he still has the title of "King of Ninth" and is still the prince of the empire.

However, His Highness Niang, who entered the Prince's Mansion, closed the door directly and refused to wait for visits.

Not to mention the members of the Eastern Palace who were confiscated after the house was confiscated, even Li Fan, who was not involved, could not meet King Ren.

Everyone is saying that this is King Ren thinking about his mistakes behind closed doors and does not want to stimulate the emperor again at this time.

There are many rumors in the capital. In fact, King Ren didn't have much to do with his own secrets, and most of them were done by his subordinates.

However, in order to save their lives, King Ren lost his position as the prince.

Therefore, the people's evaluation of Niang was very high, thinking that he was willing to take care of his subordinates and was a good master.

But Liu Mingqi sneered at this.

yes!

Not only did King Ren save his subordinates, but he also made people feel that he was affectionate and righteous, but this was just his personal reputation.

When his identity is the prince, all his actions should be subject to the interests of the empire.

The most appropriate thing is to kill these subordinates who rely on his corruption and abuse of power.

Because when you were the crown prince, they dared to act so recklessly, so what if you ascend the throne and become the emperor?

Although these people are unlikely to enter the court as officials, they are still the most trusted people of the prince who ascended the throne. At that time, they will go to various places to do business and rely on the emperor's favor and robbing them. Will it make the country a mess?

Besides, you don’t even have the most basic concept of “the country and the country are the most important”. If you encounter such a thing in the future, even if you threaten the whole world, will you still only talk about your personal feelings, hold it up high and let it go easily?

Well……

It seems that we should not only talk about the future prince, but the current Emperor Jinghe is also like this.

Lin Zhenyuan, the governor of the grain transport, Zhang Xiang, the Minister of Interior, Wang Feiteng, the Minister of Revenue, and Zhu Kun, the General of the Leopard Cavalry Guard, Lin Zhenyuan entered the palace as soon as he entered the capital. He stayed in the palace with the other three people and never came out.

However, the Imperial Court Office, the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple, which handled the case, kept coming from news that was unfavorable to them.

Needless to say, the Minister of Internal Affairs Zhang Xiang, the Office of Internal Affairs disappeared. He was the main person in charge and the biggest corrupt official, and he could not shirk responsibility at all.

Wang Feiteng, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, is better than him. Wang Feiteng is not much greedy, and basically it is given by others, or he uses his power to make some transactions. He is not the main responsible person for the eight million taels of silver that the Ministry of Revenue has lost.

Moreover, this money has not been greedy recently. I don’t know when it started, and it lasted at least 10 or 20 years, or even 30 or 40 years.

From this perspective, the former Minister of Revenue and the current Deputy Prime Minister Nangong Ji will definitely not be able to escape.

In addition to these few, Lin Zhenyuan, the governor of the canal transportation, was impeached by dozens of secret documents, and it is said that he listed hundreds of charges, involving countless amounts of corruption. In addition, he was shocking in various violations of laws and regulations.

This is why everyone saw Lin Zhenyuan’s big tree falling and jumped out to take advantage of the situation.

We cannot say that these guilts have not been used to be, but that everyone is holding the evidence and dare not take it out.

Now that Lin Zhenyuan is destined to be unlucky, everyone is not polite and piles up everything.

It is said that the emperor, who saw these evidences of doing evil, was furious and almost fainted again.

Originally, the Lin Mansion in the capital had copied it because it was Lin Yao, the eldest son of Lin Zhenyuan, who lived there.

Now that the house is being confiscated, it will become the governor's office of Huai'an.

Lin Zhenyuan was very miserable, and Zhu Kun, the general of the Leopard Cavalry Guard, was almost the same.

The Hu Ben Guard, Jinwu Guard and Leopard Cavalry Guard surrounded the entire Leopard Cavalry Guard camp, as well as the area where their families live, and captured all the generals above the garrison left in the Gyeonggi area.

Dozens of people were thrown into the Embroidered Uniform Guard prison and severely tortured.

As a result, these elites who were striking the northwestern border more than ten years ago were soon defeated and cried and explained their crimes.

Zhu Kun was appointed as the general of the Leopard Cavalry Guard eight years ago. At that time, Zhu Pingchuan, the eldest son of his former leopard Cavalry Guard, had already disappeared regretfully because of chasing grassland thieves.

After taking office, he quickly became corrupt, not only embezzling military pay, but also buying and selling official positions.

During the period of guarding the border, he also falsely accused good people, suppressed the herdsmen around the border, and sought personal gain for himself.

He even directly wiped out a small nomadic tribe for his interests, and sold their cattle, sheep, children, women and children to merchants, making a fortune.

Once these crimes are investigated and dealt with clearly, it is difficult for Zhu Kun to not peel off the skin.

Even if Emperor Jing and Emperor were a little stricter, it would be natural that Zhu Kun was directly imprisoned and was sentenced to death.

In fact, this also represents the meaning of the imperial court.

Otherwise, why do you think there are so many details that will be revealed?

Was it really a secret message from some small officials?

Then you are too naive!

Liu Mingqi could tell at a glance that this was something a group of bigwigs deliberately threw it out, arousing public anger.

Once the public anger reaches a certain level, it is impossible for Emperor Jing and Emperor to favor and be careless.

However, there was another second-rank senior member of the Northern Navy Governor Zhang Gongli on his way to Beijing. After multiple verifications, he confirmed that there was no major problem.

His crime was mainly because his three naval fleets were not strictly regulated, which allowed some people to hide the truth and use the navy to engage in various smuggling and smuggling transactions.

In fact, from the bottom of the matter, this is not very outrageous.

Why?

The Northern Navy was divided into three branches, namely Dengzhou, Lianyungang and Zhoushan.

Zhang Gongli can only stay in one place on weekdays, that is, a fixed Dengzhou, so it is impossible for him to fully manage Lianyungang and Zhoushan.

But this time it also sounded the alarm for the imperial court.

If they are all doing their own things and the governor of the Navy cannot take care of their subordinates, how can they gather forces to develop the navy in the future to ensure the normal progress of various maritime trade commerce?

There was a problem this time. In addition to normal cleaning, how to strengthen the power of the Navy Governor is also a must-be considered.

...

The above are just the biggest tigers.

With them as the center point, each network is woven, including dozens of officials, and hundreds of officials.

This is a result of extreme simplification. If you follow and report it vigorously, and those with a little problem are involved, one-third of the officials in the court will be ruined.

No matter from any perspective, Dakang is a traumatic injury, and this heavy loss cannot be recovered in one or two years.

Just talking about the reconstruction of the Ministry of Revenue, how much effort does it take and how much manpower does it take?

Not to mention that the rampant Yangtze River and the Yellow River are not over now.

In addition to causing huge damage to the provinces along the way, they have crossed the two lakes and the central region and are rapidly advancing to the two last sea estuaries of Shandong and Jiangsu.

Because they had accumulated too much energy before, they were almost rushing forward and could not stop them at all.

The first few county towns have all fallen, flooded everywhere, presenting a vast ocean.

Thanks to something like Fei Ge delivering a letter, the message is conveyed very quickly.

This made the provinces on the east seize the time to harvest rice and wheat.

Especially in Shandong and Jiangsu, the two provinces that fell in the last place, have long since snatched the grain.

But even so, the scene of the dam being washed away and flooded everywhere still makes people feel trembling.

Liu Renhuai, the governor of Jiangnan, who temporarily served as the imperial commissioner for disaster relief, did not make any move at this time.
