The two of them have shared hardships, so there is naturally no need to delay.

Zhan Hui picked up the teacup that Fu Youwen had pushed in front of him, took a sip slowly and meaningfully, and said in a very low voice, "Too many have been killed, too harshly! If they continue like this, something bad will happen to the Ming Dynasty!"

Hearing what the other party said.

Fu Youwen glanced around guiltily, first making sure that the doors and windows were closed and no one was in the room. He even walked around very cautiously, searching through any boxes, cabinets, curtains, etc. that might be hiding people. Only then did he feel relieved and sat back in his original seat.

They are not completely unaware of the intelligence channels in the hands of His Majesty.

There's the Imperial Guards, but he's also probably using the secret contacts the previous emperor had! Recently, there's also the Internal Audit Bureau... Sometimes they can even know things without any reason or trace, like this audit, which makes it even more mysterious.

It’s no wonder that Fu Youwen is timid and cautious.

Zhan Hui was no longer surprised by this, and didn't even think it was unnecessary. He just waited for Fu Youwen to conduct various investigations.

After finishing this, Fu Youwen said as if he was facing a formidable enemy: "Old Zhan, this is not something you can say carelessly. Your Majesty killed a corrupt official, could he have killed the wrong person?"

At least he didn't understand what Zhan Hui wanted to say for a moment.

Zhan Hui continued in a low voice, "Killing the corrupt and having the courage to follow the late emperor's powerful methods isn't a problem in itself. The problem is that they're too similar! In this respect, Your Majesty is a carbon copy of the late emperor!"

"The Ming Dynasty has only been established for a total of twenty-five years. In a few days, it will only be twenty-six years. The current team of officials in the court is formed by the old ministers recruited from the previous dynasty, the great scholars invited from the countryside, and the frequent special examinations."

"You are not in charge of the Ministry of Personnel, so you don't know."

"Since the late emperor came to power, he has fabricated numerous major cases, executing countless officials and their families. Now, many positions in the weaving system are vacant. It will take some time for things to recover."

"But fortunately, the late emperor's killing spree has caused some people to cower in fear. Even those who are ready to act are extremely cautious and don't reveal their true intentions. Major crimes and mass killings always have to wait for an opportunity or for the truth to be revealed."

"But now... on this basis, what kind of ability has Your Majesty demonstrated? His perspective on officialdom and corruption... perhaps even more transparent and thorough than the late emperor's! This means that he will kill anyone the late emperor could kill, and perhaps even the filth the late emperor couldn't see will not escape his gaze."

"What do you think the Ming Dynasty officialdom will look like in the future?"

After hearing what Zhan Hui said, Fu Youwen finally reacted. The more he listened, the more stunned he became and his expression froze.

Zhan Hui paused.

Fu Youwen was silent for a long time before he forced himself to come back to his senses. He pursed his chapped lips and muttered, "What will the future hold for the Ming Dynasty officialdom..."

Heads rolled and blood flowed like a river, but also talent was depleted!

Even considering the style and temperament of the young emperor, as well as the mysterious abilities he displayed this time... this scene is even worse than the Hongwu Dynasty meeting!

What Zhan Hui said was "something is going to happen in the Ming Dynasty."

Maybe it’s not just empty talk!!!

The key is that this young emperor is a bit too shameless! His ability to check the accounts is so good that no matter how filthy he is, he will definitely kill more people than before!

Seeing Fu Youwen's expression, Zhan Hui knew that he had figured it out.

He tilted his head back and took a big gulp of tea.

The look he gave Fu Youwen was profound. "Just like what the people in the outer hall are saying, if the former Emperor Hongwu had the ability of the current Emperor, there would definitely be many more bloody scenes... Why does such a scene have to happen in the previous dynasty? It's not impossible in the current dynasty!"
