Chapter 124 The end of Donglin

"well"

Lian Guoshi sighed softly and slowly closed his eyes, already prepared to die.

I once joined the Donglin Party with great expectations, hoping to show off my talents, but the Donglin Party is a trap at all. Everything it does is to serve interests, and serving the country and the people is all nonsense, whether it is good for the emperor or the Donglin Party.

No matter what, he was completely disappointed, and death might not be a relief for him.

"Who is this person?"

Lian Guoshi's sigh caught Zhu Houzhao's attention, and he immediately asked Zhu Youjian.

"Practice state affairs!"

Zhu Youjian glanced at it casually and replied, feeling a little unbearable in his heart.

Lian Guoshi was one of the few capable ministers in the court. He had suppressed the rebellions of Shen Yiyuan, Red Army Friends, etc. He was very capable. There was no doubt that it would be a pity to kill him like this.

It's just that the verdict has been announced that all the Donglin Party will be skinned and weeded, but they want to practice state affairs in the middle of the battle. It seems that they are not keeping their word.

"If you want to keep your empire, you can't kill this person."

Although Lian Guoshi and others were surprised by Zhu Youjian's changes, they were still sincerely happy. At least now it seems that Zhu Youjian's changes are developing in a good direction.

"Bi Maokang"

After this operation, everyone in the old Zhu family who had always looked down on him couldn't help but admire him with admiration. He was able to bend and stretch, take things up and let them go. At this time, Zhu Youjian finally had a bit of the magnanimity that an emperor should have.

Although Zhu Youjian hates the Donglin Party to the core, he is not stupid. What he lacks now is talents who can do things. If he kills all the talents such as practicing state affairs, it will be tantamount to destroying the Great Wall.

Zhu Youjian turned around and looked at the Donglin Party members who were lying on the ground like mud. His expression instantly became extremely cold and he ordered people to drag them away without saving any face.

They are happy that they don't have to die anymore. Although they are not afraid of death, they don't want to die either. It's better to live than to die.

The ministers shuddered violently and did not dare to look directly at Zhu Youjian. Before, they secretly laughed at Zhu Youjian for being a big fool. As a superior emperor, he was played like a fool by the Donglin Party.

among.

"My dear friends, do you have anything to say?"

After the scandal of the Donglin Party was exposed, he had deeply realized that he was indeed not the emperor, and gradually made plans to pass the throne to Zhu Cixang.

Although Zhu Houzhao hated the Donglin Party, he had to admit that the Donglin Party still had some capable people. These capable people were different from ordinary Donglin Party members. They were capable and loyal enough to the Ming Dynasty, so they could be of great use.

Talent.

Bi Maokang and others also widened their eyes, surprised and happy, as they prepared to die bravely for Lian Guo Shi.

"Your Majesty."

"All my dear friends, please rise."

"I know what to do!"

The Jin Yiwei dragged all the Donglin Party members away in a very rude and rude manner, and they were indeed dragged away. They completely treated the Donglin Party members like animals.

Lian Guoshi was on the verge of death, and Bi Maokang and others rushed to express their gratitude.

Who will be skinned and raped, and who will be acquitted, all depends on his mouth!

All the Donglin Party members stared at Zhu Cixiang eagerly, their eyes full of desire for life, silently praying that Zhu Cixiang would be merciful and let them live.

Zhu Youjian put aside his poor dignity and made a few changes to Lao Zhu's sentencing, giving Lian Guoshi, Bi Maokang and others a glimmer of hope.

They are all truly clean people, and naturally they will not be as unscrupulously greedy as the majority of Donglin Party members. As long as they are not involved in large-scale involvement, they can live well.

Zhu Youjian looked at Zhu Cihong, who immediately understood, walked to the big box, and began to announce the final results.

"Your Majesty has eliminated traitors for the country. It's too late for me to be happy, so how can I dare to blame Your Majesty?"

Don't let a moment of pleasure ruin the overall situation.

"Practice in state affairs, and during my tenure as an official, I was honest and upright. I suppressed rebellions many times for the Ming Dynasty. I have made outstanding achievements. I have no faults and merits. I am acquitted immediately."

Every time he pronounced a name, someone fell to the ground helplessly, unable to bear such a huge blow. Many people felt as if they were still in a dream.

People like Lian Guoshi, Bi Maokang, He Fengsheng, Wang Qiaonian, Jiang Yunyi, and Huang Gongfu are either extraordinary in ability or strong-willed, and many of them have fought and died for the Ming Dynasty. These people are the ones who truly care about the Ming Dynasty. Let them follow Dong

It is such a pity that Lin Dang's moths are buried with him.

Zhu Youjian raised his hands in vain and said: "In order to eradicate the traitors in the court, I misunderstood the beloved ministers. I hope that the beloved ministers will not be surprised."

They are the Donglin Party, with power over the government and the opposition, and influence all over the world. How come it is over all of a sudden, and they are sentenced to the death penalty of skinning and tearing off the grass? This is not the result they want.

Zhu Youjian glanced at the remaining ministers lightly, and the meaningful light in his eyes made the ministers shudder.

Those who deserved to die and those who deserved to be released were declared by the prince himself with the evidence of all the prisoners' crimes. It was fair and just and no one could refute it.

"Wang Qiongnian"

However, Zhu Cixi already hated them so much, how could he let them go? It would be a pity not to kill them with his own hands!

"My lord, thank you for your kindness."

The Donglin Party is not a good thing, and the remaining civil servants are also bastards, and everyone deserves to die.

Zhu Cihong picked up an account book and glanced at it casually, and said: "Li Rixuan embezzled 80,000 taels of disaster relief funds from the court. During his time as an official, he embezzled and accepted bribes totaling 480,000 taels. He is a capital offender."

They were shocked that the stubborn and self-willed Zhu Youjian would spare their lives.

Keep Lian Guoshi and others until Zhu Cihong takes office.

"You don't have many capable men, so just keep one if you can!"

"I will not wrongly accuse any good person, nor will I let any corrupt official off the hook."

"All the evidence of your crimes of corruption and bending the law are here. The evidence of the crime is conclusive. I will never forgive you for peeling off the skin and picking up the grass. I will only apologize to every innocent lover who was just implicated by the criminal officials!"

Zhu Youjian, whose character has become twisted, now sees everyone as a traitor and wants to kill them quickly.

"Drag it out."

And if he doesn't think about himself, he has to think more about his son Zhu Cixiang.

If he could let Lian Guoshi and others go, it was because he had to consider the overall situation and Zhu Cixiang. There was no need to be too polite when treating these prisoners who were waiting to be skinned and stripped of their hay!

But when faced with Zhu Youjian's drastic change of heart, they missed the past extremely. After all, the way Zhu Youjian looked at them was so terrifying and terrifying.

Zhu Youjian was now like a hungry tiger, and they were all tempting pieces of fat, opening his bloody mouth, ready to devour them all at any time.

"snort"

Zhu Youjian enjoyed the fear of his ministers. In the past, when he said one thing, the ministers would rebuke him ten or eight times, which made him lose face and his imperial authority was completely gone.

Unlike now, the ministers were like quails, not daring to challenge him at all. The feeling of being on top of an independent cloud, overlooking everything, was so wonderful, so wonderful that he was intoxicated!

He began to understand a little bit why Lao Zhu, Zhu Di, and Zhu Houzhao all liked the imperial power. The feeling of having power and being the only one, was really refreshing!
