Jin Palace.

Officers and soldiers were escorting the rebels to various military camps in the city in an orderly manner.

The servants in the Jin Palace used brooms and dustpans to clean and remove the broken limbs in front of the main hall of the palace.

Buckets of clean water washed on the ground, splashing countless blood foam, as well as tiny pieces of flesh and bones. The water was washed away into the surrounding ditches, and finally flowed into the underground ditch with flowing water.

, until it finally merges into the Fen River outside Taiyuan City.

Zhu Jiye, the second son of the royal family, was standing in the square with his hands in his hands and a knife hanging on his waist, looking at the busy crowd around him, with a sad expression on his face.

The Jin Prince's palace was in good condition, but half of it was invaded by rebels, and countless palaces were destroyed.

But these are nothing, they just cost more money and food to rebuild.

This time, many houses in Taiyuan City had to be confiscated, but these holes could always be filled.

What made Zhu Jiye feel a little uneasy was what he saw when he turned around, the palace hall guarded by many royal guards.

At this time, on the steps in front of the palace, the previous military formation was no longer there, and the emperor's grandson, his father, and the officials who were patrolling the north had also left.

Officials still have more things to do. Under the protection of officers and soldiers, they must temporarily take over the yamen of Shanxi Road in Taiyuan City to ensure that Shanxi Road can still operate normally after dawn tomorrow.

As for the cousin of the emperor's grandson, he had already entered the palace with his father and the king, along with Mr. Gao Ge and others.

After tonight, the situation on Shanxi Road will undergo earth-shaking changes. And everything will be decided in this hall in front of you.

A different Shanxi Road.

A smile appeared on the corner of Zhu Jiye's mouth.

Inside the palace.

Zhu Yunxi had already put the long sword he had fought with all night into the scabbard, hung it on his waist, and pressed the palm of his left hand against the handle.

Beside him were King Zhu Fan of Jin, cabinet minister Gao Yangzhi, Wang Xinling, Tian Mai, Sun Cheng, Ma Hongqing and others.

The Shanxi Dao officials who were detained in the palace were already kneeling in front of Zhu Yunxi.

Under a pillar as thick as an arm in a corner not far away, Liu Liang, the commander of Shanxi Daodu, was tied up with five flowers and leaned against the pillar in a faint state.

Although the people in the palace could not see what was going on outside before, the sounds of fighting that had been caused from the time when the rebels arrived in front of the palace to when the rebels from all over the city entered Prince Jin's Mansion, had long since disappeared.

However, Zhu Yunxi, Zhu Fan and others appeared in front of people intact.

What happened outside the palace?

Everyone knows it.

The uprising of the rebels has been suppressed.

"Your Highness! I was wronged. I didn't know anything and I didn't do anything."

"It's Changsun Gong and the others! It's them! Your Highness, they are the ones who forced me to do what I did. I dare not disobey."

"I have accounts. They are all the things these elders Sun Gong and others forced me to do, as well as the benefits I got from them."

"I have it too! I dare not spend a penny of the money I have received over the years! All that money is hidden in my home, in the cellar. I have no use for any of it, so I will take it out now."

"..."

Before Zhu Yunxi could speak, the Shanxi Provincial officials in the palace began to save themselves.

Without exception, except for those officials who had not been involved in what Changsun Gong and others were involved in, they claimed that they knew nothing. Almost all officials present put the blame on Changsun Gong and others.

Pushed onto a dead man.

Zhu Fan and Gao Yangzhi tilted their heads and looked sideways, quietly watching Zhu Yunxi who had not yet spoken, waiting for the emperor's grandson who was in charge of the empire to make a decision.

Zhu Yunxi squinted his eyes and looked at the Shanxi Provincial officials in front of him.

What happened in Shanxi Road this time was very different from the previous rebellion in Henan Road.

The original rebellion in Henan Province was caused by the local gentry class. They were dissatisfied with the imperial court's reform policy and harmed their inherent interests, which led to the chaos in Henan Province.

But Shanxi Road is different. Due to the special reasons of Shanxi Road, almost all the wealthy households here have never benefited from land. It is precisely because of the terrain of Shanxi Road that three mountains and two rivers have led to the prevalence of these merchants.

People all get rich by doing business.

Although the imperial court now attaches great importance to commercial taxes, in many places, commercial taxes even exceed the amount of summer and autumn taxes.

But the merchants are not unprofitable.

The rebellion in Shanxi Province was all caused by the selfish motives of these people.

Because of the undying thief heart of the White Lotus Sect, because of the greed of Shanxi merchants who tried to control the government, and because of the ambition of Shanxi Tao officials to build a country in China.

"Check, if there are any lawbreakers, punish them! The three tribes will be assigned to Yingzhou!"

Zhu Yunxi did not hesitate too much and quickly decided the fate and future of Shanxi Road officials.

With the practice of Kaogong Law in Yingtian City, what the court is least afraid of now is that no one will become an official.

Once the public examination is open, all the talented people in the world will be admitted into the Great Ming Urn.

When spring comes after the New Year, the imperial court will start the exams again. Right now, it is clearing out the officialdom of Shanxi Province. When spring comes next year, the imperial court will be able to fill these official vacancies one by one.

Sun Cheng has already received the order.

As the Fusi Town Governor of Jinyiwei North Town, Sun Cheng no longer needs to do things by himself most of the time.

It's just a look.

Zhang Hui, the official of the Hundred Households of Jinyiwei, who had arrived here quietly a long time ago, had already led people to the Shanxi Road officials present with a cold face.

"Take it!"

Zhang Hui said coldly.

In the days after leaving Beijing, Zhang Hui had long been frustrated by dealing with that idiot Zhu Yunwen every day.

Now that he can return to his old profession, Zhang Hui can't help but feel a little more hopeful.

I just hope that the officials of Shanxi Province in front of me can be like the people of Shanxi, with stronger backbones and stronger bones.

Jinyiwei held up a famous Shanxi Road official.

Wearing a flying fish suit, he shuttled around the hall.

Not long after, people could already smell a fishy smell in their noses.

Zhu Yunxi frowned slightly and walked lightly to Shanxi Daodu Commander Liu Liang, who was still leaning under the red paint pillar.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! He lowered his head and looked at Liu Liang, who was still unconscious.

Not far from him, the dagger that had stabbed Zhou Yunkun, Guo Yuchuang, and Chang Sun Gong to death was lying on the side covered with blood.

"wake."

Zhu Yunxi spoke in a low voice.

Tian Mai, who had been following him, immediately stepped forward.

Tian Mai slowly rolled up his sleeves, raised his hands and slowly turned his wrists.

Snapped.

There was a crisp sound.

It came from Liu Liang's face.

Tian Mai had already put down his sleeves and straightened up.

As for Liu Liang, who was slapped, half of his face immediately became red and swollen.

Liu Liang, who was still in a coma, also slowly opened his eyes.

Liu Liang blinked his eyes, his eyes a little distracted.

The pain in his body also made him twist uncontrollably.

When he raised his head.

Liu Liang's pupils shrank suddenly and he hurriedly knelt on the ground.

He first raised his head and glanced at Zhu Yunxi, who was standing quietly in front of him, and then immediately lowered his head.

"Your Highness, I have killed the treacherous traitors Changsun Gong, Zhou Yunkun and Guo Yuchuang for you! I also have evidence of three other people's past crimes, as well as accounts of their secret collusion with Shanxi merchants in the past few years to transfer profits!"

Zhu Yunxi sneered: "You are in urgent need of what I need."

Liu Liang opened his mouth, but his forehead was already on the ground: "I don't dare, this is my duty."

Zhu Yunxi snorted coldly.

"Liu Junmen, do you think that this can offset the merits and demerits? Or do you think that by killing Changsun Gong and the others today, you have made a contribution to the court?"

Liu Liang reacted, looking blank and raising his head with fearful eyes.

"Your Highness..."

"cut!"

Zhu Yunxi didn't give Liu Liang any more chance, he said coldly and turned around.
