Smiles appeared on everyone's lips. Having been in the officialdom for a long time, how could they not hear the hidden meaning?

This is tantamount to Zhu Yunhuan covering up Chang Sheng's mistakes.

This decree directly prevented Chang Sheng from being criticized, otherwise Chang Sheng would have been charged with the crime of usurpation if he had taken people to Zhongshan.

"I accept your instructions."

Chang Sheng bowed.

The eunuch nodded and said, "My Lord, the order has been delivered. I will return to the palace now."

Chang Sheng took out a silver note from his sleeve and put it into his hand.

"Thank you for your hard work. Take this and have some tea."

"Thank you for your reward, Duke. I will take my leave now." The eunuch bowed, then mounted his horse and returned to the palace to report.

Chang Sheng stood at the door and greeted, "My uncles, aunts, and colleagues, my sister's death was redressed because of the reign of the Holy Grandson. I am here to pay tribute today. I would like to thank everyone for coming..."

Chang Sheng was talking nonsense.

"My eldest niece's innocence has been vindicated, and my elder brother Chang can finally rest in peace in peace in the nine springs, woooo." As Lan Yu said this, he wiped away his tears.

When people get old, they tend to feel sad.

"set off!"

Following Chang Sheng's order, everyone headed towards Zhongshan in a mighty manner.

Along the way, there were loud gongs and drums, blasting firecrackers, and fireworks being set off into the sky as if they were free. Paper money was scattered all the way, and suona was played all the way.

This movement shocked the entire capital.

Countless people were stunned. Those who knew understood that they were going to pay tribute to the late Crown Princess, while those who didn't thought that the emperor had passed away.

This commotion is such a big deal.

"The world...has changed. After decades of ups and downs in the officialdom, I can no longer see through the current situation."

"Sir Wang, do we need to explain the current situation? The Huaixi Party has great power in the government and will definitely control the government in the future. This founding duke may even be crowned a king and given the Nine Gifts. Duke Xin will come back to command the mobilization of troops across the country. The Huaixi Party is now in control of everything."

"A king... probably not. After all, even his father Chang Yuchun was conferred the title posthumously. Even when Xu Da, the King of Zhongshan, was established, wasn't he also conferred the title posthumously?"

"The Huaixi Party has great power over the world. Our living space is getting smaller and smaller. Who can check and balance them? Duke Xin is in charge of troop movements, Duke Kai is in charge of personnel promotions, and Duke Song is in charge of the world. Let's see who is in control of the world today."

"Be careful with your words, Master Cui, or you'll get into trouble."

This commotion caused a sensation in the whole city, and it was natural that officials from other factions could not be unaware of it.

Some expressed helplessness at this scene, while others expressed grief and anger.

But the Huaixi Group is indeed too powerful now.

I don’t know what that good saint grandson is thinking.

……

The Jinyiwei also began to verify the identities of all those involved in this incident. Tomorrow morning, the Jinyiwei will escort groups of people to Caishikou. The executioner's knife has been eager for a long time.

The Jinyiwei were still searching homes. All the homes and properties of the Lu clan in Beijing had been searched. For those who were outside Beijing, the Jinyiwei had already notified the Jinyiwei in other places to arrest people, search their homes, and execute them on the spot.

Batch after batch of gold, silver and jewelry were sent to the national treasury.

Wang Chunsan also secretly came to Cao Ming's house with the account book.

However, looking at this house which is almost the same as those lived by ordinary people, Wang Chunsan's mouth twitched. After all, Cao Ming is now an assistant minister of the cabinet and the person in charge of the Anti-Corruption Bureau. Why is he still living such a hard life?

Wang Chunsan sat in the hall for a while before Cao Ming finally arrived.

Cao Ming went to the street and bought some meat.

"Lord Wang? What are you doing?"

When Cao Ming came in, he heard his wife say that someone was waiting for him. He didn't expect that it was the new Minister of Revenue.

Wang Chunsan smiled slightly and said, "Master Cao, you live a very poor life. You don't even have a servant at home."

Cao Ming replied, "I don't have that much salary to pay such wages! Unlike you all, you can afford to live in a big house. If Lord Wang has nothing else to do, I will not stay any longer. After all, my poor place is nothing worthy of Lord Wang's stay."
