When the emperor comes to modern times, history collapses!
Chapter 331: All the ministers were arrested, only the emperor was present at the morning court
Zhu Yuanzhang did not refute what Heshen said.
After all, corrupt officials like Heshen are very few and extremely rare throughout the five thousand years of history!
He Shen's face was full of flattering smiles, and he continued, "Your Majesty, since we can't catch those so-called 'big fish' for the time being, we might as well catch more 'small fish'. You know, although these 'small fish' are small in size, there are many of them and they are relatively easy to catch. In my humble opinion, it is not a bad idea to arrest all those who come to the court today, because no one among them will be wrongly accused! Moreover, there are even a few particularly 'fat' 'fish' among them."
Hearing this, Old Zhu couldn't help but chuckle and responded, "Well, we can't mess around with a deal worth five million taels of silver. I'll go find Xiao Zhu later and ask him to send over the Jinyiwei team that I've carefully trained. Then we'll give the Han Dynasty a thorough overhaul!"
Zhu Ming, who was sleeping soundly, slowly opened his sleepy eyes.
However, as soon as Zhu Ming opened his eyes, he suddenly saw two faces staring at him motionlessly. He was so frightened that his whole body trembled and he almost lost his soul.
Especially Uncle Chen, he almost became Uncle Ruan.
Zhu Ming hurriedly grabbed the blanket beside him and covered himself tightly. He couldn't help but yelled, "What the hell, what are you two doing? Don't you know that scaring people to death is scary? It's so early in the morning, and you two are standing here like the Black and White Impermanence. What do you want to do? I'm a decent person with normal sexual orientation."
Facing Zhu Ming's extreme reaction, Old Zhu snorted coldly and said unhappily: "Humph! How dare you say it's so early in the morning? We just came here after lunch. Look at your lazy appearance, it's simply inappropriate!"
"A day's plan begins in the morning. An hour of square dancing will make you feel refreshed the whole day. Potato King might as well give it a try. I also know a little about medicine. Going to bed early and getting up early and ensuring adequate sleep are very good for your health." Heshen was a little chubby and his smile was very festive.
Zhu Ming couldn't help but say, "Actually, I get enough sleep. I fall asleep at four or five in the morning, and then sleep comfortably until one or two in the afternoon, eight hours or no more. By the way, why did you two suddenly come here? Didn't you say you were going to arrest those corrupt officials?"
Hearing this, Lao Zhu took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and slowly replied: "It's not easy to catch corrupt officials. We need enough manpower to do it."
Zhu Ming blinked and immediately suggested, "Then we can go to Xiao Liu or Cao Cao to ask for some help."
Old Zhu shook his head in denial. "Well, you know, the last years of every dynasty are actually the same. The entire court is corrupt to the core. Even if they can send some people to us, they are probably just small fry, and they may not even have professional qualities. Don't you always say 'professional matters should be left to professionals'? So wait a minute, I'll have to trouble you to bring all the Jinyiwei team that I personally trained to support us."
Speaking of the Jinyiwei, they have a great background.
A few years ago, when the Jinyiwei made its first public appearance, it won high praise and strong support from several emperors for its outstanding performance.
From then on, Zhu Yuanzhang seized the opportunity to promote his Jinyiwei to Emperor Qin Shi Huang and others.
Today, the Jinyiwei has become famous and is no longer unique to the Ming Dynasty!
The Qin Dynasty, the Han Dynasty and many other dynasties found that the Jinyiwei were indeed professional and useful, so they asked Zhuge Liang to help train a group of them.
However, the number of personnel trained was not large and could only barely meet the needs of their respective courts.
Later, Zhu went to various dynasties to arrest corrupt officials.
Found it a bit awkward to use.
After careful consideration, he decided to follow the example of the Allied Forces of Ten Thousand Dynasties.
From each dynasty, a number of elite men and outstanding talents suitable for working in the Embroidered Uniform Guard were carefully selected.
Eventually, they successfully formed a feared Jinyiwei team!
The reputation of this team quickly spread throughout the dynasties and became the most feared existence in the hearts of officials of each dynasty.
"Are you planning to bring all the troops with you? According to estimates, there are about 100,000 of them, and they are equipped with guns. This size is probably more than enough to dominate the Three Kingdoms!"
After thinking for a while, Lao Zhu replied, "If we want to bring all of them here, there are too many people. How about this? Just send 10,000 people for me first."
He Shen, who was standing by, quickly added: "In addition, it would be best to bring a few sets of powerful torture instruments with you to ensure that those who committed the crime can be reminded of the crimes they have committed."
"no problem."
Zhu Ming knew clearly that with the arrival of a large number of Jinyiwei, the officials of the late Eastern Han Dynasty would be in great danger.
By then, tortures such as skinning and stuffing with straw will surely make many people tremble in fear. As for how many horrible dolls made of human skin each city will get, that is unknown.
Time passed quietly, and an hour later, there were suddenly 10,000 Jinyiwei of various appearances in the imperial city.
Some were dressed in coarse linen clothes with a towel draped over their shoulders, looking like waiters;
Some of them were dressed in gorgeous clothes, waving folding fans in their hands, with cynical smiles on their faces, and were obviously dandies;
Some people wore long gowns and jackets, and square scarves on their heads. In front of them was a table with a fortune stick and a compass on it. They looked like fortune tellers who walked the streets.
What's more, she is heavily made-up, has a graceful figure, and is full of charm in her every move. Who else could she be but the top prostitute in the brothel?
It can be said that people from all walks of life gather here.
Following Zhu's order, these people left the palace quickly like a tide and soon disappeared in the streets and alleys of the capital.
After the court session, Fu De returned to his residence.
As Liu Xie's brother-in-law, he was extremely excited these days.
Back then, Liu Xie was just a puppet emperor in name only. He had no real power and his words carried little weight.
As a result, the care that Fude, as his elder brother-in-law, received was naturally very limited.
However, times have changed. With the sudden arrival of Emperor Jing of Han and Emperor Wu of Han, the usually arrogant Cao Cao suddenly became obedient.
Liu Xie's voice in the court has been greatly enhanced compared to before.
Fude was keenly aware that his good days were probably about to come.
Sure enough, in recent times, people have been visiting every day, bringing various gifts and invitations to banquets.
At this moment, Fude was lying leisurely in a comfortable recliner, taking a nap with his eyes slightly closed.
After a while, he slowly opened his eyes and muttered, "This is really strange. Why didn't anyone come to deliver the invitation today?"
"I'm afraid no one will come today!"
Suddenly, a strange and deep voice came from behind Fude. It was like a thunderbolt breaking the silent night sky, which made Fude's heart tighten suddenly. He was frightened and stood up quickly in a hurry, turning around and looking back.
In the middle of the yard, there were more than a dozen figures standing quietly, as silent as ghosts.
Fu De's eyes widened with anger, and he shouted sternly, "Who are you guys from? Don't you know where this place is?"
The voice echoed in the empty courtyard, carrying a hint of fear and anger.
However, the other party responded calmly: "We naturally know where this place is."
Upon hearing this, Fu De became even more furious and continued to ask, "If that's the case, how dare you trespass here? Who ordered you to do so?"
At this time, one of them slowly stepped forward and handed a token to Fude.
Fu De took a closer look and his face suddenly changed, because he recognized at a glance that the token belonged to Emperor Jing of Han.
In the court, Emperor Jing of Han once said personally that anyone who saw this token would feel as if they had seen Emperor Jing of Han himself.
Fu De was secretly happy, thinking that good days were coming.
So, he immediately put on a flattering smile, nodded and asked, "So it was the emperor who sent you here. I really didn't recognize you! I wonder what you are here for?"
The man looked at Fude coldly and said expressionlessly: "You'll know when you get there." Fude didn't dare to be negligent at all. He hurriedly followed him and left the mansion with the group.
Along the way, Fude secretly speculated on the purpose of this trip, but he could never figure it out.
I don't know how much time had passed, but when Fude looked around again, his face instantly turned as pale as paper and his body began to tremble uncontrollably.
Because he suddenly discovered that he was outside the Heavenly Prison.
"Heavenly Prison!"
Fude screamed in shock, his face full of disbelief.
He turned around in fear and looked at the person beside him, and asked stutteringly, "Wait... weren't you going to take me to see the emperor? Why did you end up in this prison?"
At this time, Fude no longer had the flattering attitude he had before, and was replaced by a heart full of fear and doubt.
The leader took out a small notebook and said, "I never said that I would bring Master Fu to see His Majesty. You will know after you take a look."
The notebook is neatly and densely packed with records of all that Fude has done over the years.
As the elder brother-in-law of the current emperor, although he has been suppressed by Cao Cao's forces, he still enjoys some special powers to a certain extent.
It is also because of this that Fude behaves extremely arrogantly and domineeringly in his daily life. He often seizes fertile land, and he also does countless evil things such as bullying men and occupying women.
Not only that, he also often took advantage of his position to embezzle and accept bribes to enrich himself.
At this time, Fude was flipping through the booklet with trembling hands. When he had only read half of it, his legs became weak with fright and he collapsed on the cold and wet ground like mud.
The content recorded here was so detailed that even some details that he himself had almost forgotten were clearly marked out.
"It's over...everything is over!"
Fude's face was ashen, and he muttered to himself.
At this moment, a sound of footsteps came from far away, followed by a sarcastic sneer: "Hey, Master Fu, you'd better get up and follow us, otherwise, it will be difficult for us."
In the prison, Fude raised his head with difficulty and found that there were several colleagues there.
They were also imprisoned here like Fude.
After everyone gathered together and chatted for a while, Fu De learned that a mysterious organization called "Jinyiwei" had emerged in the court since some time ago.
This agency seems to be specifically responsible for monitoring the every move of all officials in the court, and no movement can escape their eyes.
a few days later.
Emperor Jing of Han and Emperor Wu of Han came to the court with enthusiasm.
The court was very empty.
Except for Liu Xie.
Not a single minister.
"Are you taking a break today?"
"No, today is Wednesday, not Sunday."
"Could it be that they remembered it wrong?"
"Maybe. Let's wait a little longer. Maybe they have encountered some problems. Let's ask someone to take a look."
Wait left and wait right.
It’s almost noon.
Emperor Jing of Han and Emperor Wu of Han looked as pale as the bottom of a pot.
The two of them have been emperors for so many years.
This is the first time I see ministers skipping work collectively.
It would be fine if Liu Xie was still sitting on the dragon throne.
Now it is Emperor Jing of Han sitting on the dragon throne, yet he dares not give himself face.
"How brave! It seems like they want me to invite them to a dinner party at the Heavenly Prison!"
"Even if they are all like Xiao Zhu, with so many ministers, there should be one or two abnormal ones."
Just when they were about to send troops to capture him.
The eunuch who was sent to look for the minister ran in hurriedly from outside.
"Your Majesty, the investigation has been completed!"
Emperor Jing of Han suppressed his anger and shouted, "Speak!"
The eunuch was so frightened that he trembled slightly and almost fell to the ground. He was completely different from Liu Xie's momentum: "Your Majesty, the ministers have been taken away by Emperor Zhu."
Emperor Jing of Han and Emperor Wu of Han were stunned for a moment, with a little confusion in their eyes: "What's going on? Why did Old Zhu take them all away?"
"Your Majesty, I heard from Emperor Zhu that all the ministers were involved in corruption, so they were taken away and are now in prison."
Emperor Jing of Han and Emperor Wu of Han were shocked: "They took them all away, leaving no one behind?"
"Your Majesty, all those who are qualified to stand here have been taken away. In addition, many officials have been arrested and thrown into prison."
Emperor Jing of Han and Emperor Wu of Han were both very upset.
"Fuck, you dead pig, at least leave me one person to hold the court meeting. There is no one here now, how can we hold the court meeting!"
"I think Lao Zhu did it on purpose."
Liu Xie was surprised and said, "Although I also know that the ministers are corrupt, it is unlikely that there is not a single one left. It is impossible that all the important officials in the court of our Han Dynasty are corrupt officials, right?"
"Humph, it's all your fault. If you were in control of the court, you wouldn't have ended up like this!"
"Father, please calm down. It is normal for such a situation to occur at the end of a dynasty."
"How about calling Xiao Zhu over so we can hold a private meeting for him?"
Emperor Wu of Han hurriedly shook his head: "Whoever wants to go can go, I won't go anyway, Father, I think if you call him now, he will pull you off the throne." (End of this chapter)
