Daming: I really don’t want to be an emperor!

"Let's report other matters first. What do you have to report, my dear ministers?"

While waiting for someone, Zhu Yunhuan thought about dealing with other things first.

"Your Highness, the new cabinet ministers have yet to be decided, and state affairs cannot be delayed." Feng Sheng bowed.

Everyone nodded in agreement.

After all, it is a position that nominally rules the world, and we must not let the Huaixi Group take it over again.

"I recommend Zuodu Yushi Yuan Tai to be a cabinet minister!"

The boss of Jiangnan Group took direct action, and this time there is no way to give in to Huaixi Group no matter what.

"I recommend Shen Xi, the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Works, to be a cabinet minister."

People from other factions also spoke up.

The civil officials of the Huaixi Group did not speak, mainly because Feng Sheng did not take the lead.

Feng Sheng knew very well that if there were two people from the Huaixi Group in the cabinet, the Huaixi Group would definitely be suspected, and the consequence would be that the bow would be put away after the bird is dead and the dog would be cooked after the rabbit is dead.

We need to know when to advance and when to retreat. The Huaixi Group is now all-powerful and can no longer grow any bigger.

Otherwise, it is very likely that Zhu Yunhuan would be forced to become like Zhu Yuanzhang, which would definitely not be a blessing for the civil and military officials. We cannot have another military remonstrance.

All the civil and military officials in the court began to argue about who should be the assistant minister. Some people from the Huaixi Group also spoke up, unable to hold back.

They don't know that if the minister is strong and the emperor is weak, the emperor will deal with them.

At this time, at the palace gate.

The Royal Guards shouted, "In compliance with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's order, summon the witnesses to the palace!"

"Once you enter Fengtian Palace, you will know everything. If you say something wrong or change your testimony, I will use the blood of your nine clans to add some color to the maple leaves this year!"

The Jinyiwei who was in charge of the guard gave these people a warning.

"Yes, yes." No one dared to resist.

They don't want to go to the Imperial Prison a second time. Don't underestimate the blood ties between themselves and the nine clans.

Several Jinyiwei brought people into the palace, and two witnesses were dragged into the Fengtian Hall because they had been beaten to a bloody mess and were seriously injured.

Only after they signed their names did they use ginseng slices to keep them alive.

He led a large group of people to the Fengtian Temple.

There was chaos in the Fengtian Hall and the civil officials also started fighting.

It's not enough to argue until you're red in the face.

We still have to take action.

Zhu Yunhuan just watched their performance from above and did not stop them.

It doesn't matter who comes up anyway.

It’s fine as long as Feng Sheng’s position is not shaken. Once I have control of the situation, I can change him whenever I want.

"Witnesses come to the palace!"

Following a loud shout from the Embroidered Uniform Guards, all the officials stopped and returned to their original positions. Some had their hats knocked off, and some had their beards pulled off. They didn't look like they had read the books of sages at all.

As the Jinyiwei led people to the palace, many officials gasped. The Jinyiwei beat them so hard.

"Your Highness, the Jinyiwei's confession was definitely extracted under torture. Their confession cannot be trusted." Someone from the Jiangnan Group immediately stood up and said.

"No... I didn't confess under torture. I didn't confess under torture. I confessed voluntarily."

"Yes, yes, yes. We confessed voluntarily. We did not confess under torture."

"My injuries look serious, but they are just superficial injuries. I will be fine after a few days of rest. There is no such thing as a confession under torture."

"Sir, please don't say anything nonsense. We were not tortured into confessing. We were moved and decided to turn over a new leaf."

"There is no such thing as a confession under torture."

These criminals immediately refuted the allegations. As the parties involved, their words were naturally highly credible.

This made the officials of Jiangnan Group look as dark as the bottom of a pot.

Are you fucking idiots?

You are changing your statement now!

Sue them for forcing them to confess!

"Your Highness, you have heard it too. We, the Jinyiwei, only used torture, but we definitely did not force a confession under torture, so the testimony is extremely credible." Jiang Li bowed.

Do you really think that the Jinyiwei are there to eat for free?

Zhu Yunxun hummed, "Everyone be quiet!"

"Yes." Everyone fell silent.

"Your Highness, this is Lian'er, Lu's personal maid." Jiang Li pointed at a woman and said.
