Sign In a Lu Bu Fengxian at the Beginning

The latest website: The Ministry of Industry Shangshu's mansion was raided and wiped out by Dongchang, and more than 20 other officials of the court were also ransacked and exterminated by Dongchang.

As soon as this news came out, it shocked all the civil and military officials in the court.

Especially Cui Yongyuan, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, this is not an ordinary court official, he is a rare minister in the court, one of the six ministers.

Such an important court official was arrested by Dongchang all at once, and for a while, many people were shocked.

Not only Prime Minister Yuan Bo and Hubu Shangshu were shocked and lost their usual composure after hearing this news.

The same is true for Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice.

After the Minister of the Ministry of Justice heard the news that Dongchang had wiped out the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Industry and arrested Cui Yongyuan, the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, he was shocked and restless.

This news is really too sudden.

The sudden arrival made Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice unprepared.

The Secretary of the Criminal Ministry knew that it would be difficult for Cui Yongyuan to come out safe and sound after being arrested by Dongchang.

It's not that the Minister of the Ministry of Justice is worried about Cui Yongyuan's life and death, but the Minister of the Ministry of Justice is worried that Cui Yongyuan will say something that shouldn't be said.

At that time, even he, the minister of the Ministry of punishment, will be doomed.

...

Clan mansion.

The Eight Sage King Zhou Xian was also shocked when he heard the news.

Eight Sage King Zhou Xian did not expect that Zhou Chen, the emperor, would suddenly let Dongchang take down Cui Yongyuan, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, and clean up all the wings of the Boling Cui family in the court.

Isn't Zhou Chen afraid of causing a backlash from the Boling Cui family?

After the shock of the Eight Sage King Zhou Xian, his face was solemn.

Maybe other people don't know how influential Boling Cui's family is in the Great Zhou, but the Eight Sage King Zhou Xian knows it in his heart.

The seven great families of the Great Zhou, those are not just talking about it, they are really stomping, and they can cause Da Zhou to tremble three times.

The Eighth Sage King Zhou Xian was a little worried,

Zhou Chen's eagerness for quick success and quick profit would cause the aristocratic family to backlash.

At that time, the Great Zhou's thousands of miles of land will not be as simple as a small rebellion like the four northern states.

However, when the Eighth Worthy King Zhou Xian thought of destroying the traitors of the Huang Tianjiao in the Xi'an Mansion, the dignified look on his face eased a lot when he stood proudly on the spot and killed the two half-step celestial beings with a single halberd.

With the flying general who overwhelmed the audience, he should be able to frighten the Boling Cui family.

As everyone knows, in the eyes of the Eight Sage King Zhou Xian, the Cui family of Boling, who could make Da Zhou tremble three times by stomping his feet, has disappeared in the long history of Da Zhou.

If the Eighth Sage King Zhou Xian knew that Lu Bu led an army and wiped out the Cui family, which he regarded as a colossus, he didn't know how he would feel.

...

Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Sitting on the dragon chair, Zhou Chen carefully looked at a list of officials in his hand.

Standing below is Du Ruhui.

Now that Du Ruhui invited the outstanding civil servants who had already gone to Lingyan Pavilion, Zhou Chen naturally wanted to discuss with Du Ruhui about the killing of court officials like Cui Yongyuan and the others.

Du Ruhui did not disappoint Zhou Chen, and the few suggestions he put forward saved Zhou Chen a lot of heart.

After Zhou Chen read the list of officials in his hand, he raised his eyes to Du Ruhui who was standing below; "Keming, these reserve officials should follow your suggestion!"

"However, the number of these reserve officers is still too small."

"This is the urgent memorial that Fang Xuanling just sent from the Northwest today. Take a look."

As Zhou Chen spoke, he picked up a memorial beside him, and asked the internal guard to pass it to Du Ruhui below.

This was sent directly to the Hall of Mental Cultivation by the messenger today, and Zhou Chen had already seen it.

What Fang Xuanling said made Zhou Chen feel a little headache.

The four northern states have been cleaned up in a big way, but there are also a lot of troubles to be faced next.

After Du Ruhui received Fang Xuanling's urgent memorial, he opened it and read it.

After Du Ruhui finished reading Fang Xuanling's urgent memorial, he couldn't help frowning slightly.

"Your Majesty, so many local officials in the four northern states have been cleaned up, and there are too many vacancies."

"Although there are many reserve officials in the imperial court, most of them are from wealthy families, and there are not many children from poor families."

"Also, the land of the four northern states has just experienced disasters, and there is a severe drought year. If you want to restore the stability of the four northern states, you must have a good official reputation."

"However, with such a large vacancy, there are not many reserve officials who still need to meet these needs."

Du Ruhui frowned and said to Zhou Chen on the dragon chair.

Zhou Chen nodded, Du Ruhui was right.

The four northern states have just experienced turmoil and natural disasters. If the local officials who fill the vacancies are average, it will be very difficult to restore the people's livelihood in the four northern states as soon as possible.

Maybe, even the situation in the four northern states could not be stabilized.

Therefore, we must be cautious in filling the vacancies of local officials in the four northern states.

There are many reserve officials in the imperial court, but unfortunately most of them are either born in a wealthy family or are students of a wealthy family.

Let's not talk about these people's abilities, whether they are idiots, or because they are involved with aristocratic families, Zhou Chen does not dare to hire them easily at present.

Zhou Chen didn't want to, just cleared the rights of a group of wealthy families, and handed over the rights to a new group of wealthy families.

Isn't that just looking for trouble?

Zhou Chen glanced at Du Ruhui and said, "I know all this, but the vacancies in the four northern states must be filled as soon as possible, otherwise the situation in the four northern states will not stabilize."

"Keming, I will leave this matter to you."

"The reserve officials you have selected now, except for those who will fill the vacancies in the court, let them go to the northwest to find Fang Xuanling immediately."

"First solve Fang Xuanling's urgent need."

"Keming, you need to select the number of local officials that Fang Xuanling needs to fill as soon as possible. This matter cannot be delayed."

Zhou Chen looked at Fang Xuanling and said seriously.

The chaos in the four northern states has been settled, and the local officials and wealthy families in the four northern states have also been cleaned up.

But the governance of the people's livelihood behind the four northern states is the most important.

Zhou Chen didn't want to see that the goals of the previous planning in the four northern states were all achieved, but there were problems in the governance of the people's livelihood later on.

After Du Ruhui heard Zhou Chen's words, he immediately bowed and said, "I obey the order."

This matter is not difficult to say, easy is not easy to say.

However, there are many reserve officials in the Great Zhou court, and it is still possible to select some available people from among them.

From Du Ruhui's point of view, after what happened to the Boling Cui family this time, some of the wealthy families will see the situation clearly.

After Zhou Chen returned the list of officials to Fang Xuanling, he waved his hand; "Go!"

"Now Cui Yongyuan and the others should have been captured by Cao Zheng and Cao Zhengchun, and the rest will be left to you."

Don't look at Cui Yongyuan, they were all taken down by Cao Zhengchun, and the family was ransacked and exterminated.

But no matter how many officials are taken down, it is not just people who are taken down. If they ransack their homes, they will be fine.

Many things need finishing touches.

"The minister will leave."

Du Ruhui bowed and exited the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Not a few minutes after Du Ruhui left, Cao Zhengchun returned to the palace and returned to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

"My Majesty, Cui Yongyuan, Li Hui and the other 22 officials have all been captured by Dongchang and thrown into prison."

"No one slipped through the net."

"Their property of the mansion is being inspected by the factory guard."

After Cao Zhengchun walked into the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he bowed and reported.

"No surprises!"

Zhou Chen asked.

When Cao Zhengchun heard this, he immediately shook his head; "No, everything went well."

"It's just that eight officials resisted fiercely, and the factory guard lost his hand, leaving no one alive."

Cao Zhengchun hesitated for a moment and said.

Although Zhou Chen didn't say that he wanted to live, Cao Zhengchun knew that the captured court ministers were obviously more useful than corpses.

Zhou Chen didn't care much about the failure to keep the eight officials alive.

It is enough to have other living things.

Zhou Chen nodded; "As long as it goes well."

"Since everyone has been taken down, let's have a good trial, especially Cui Yongyuan, to pry his mouth open."

"I want to know how much the Cui family participated in the change of the four prefectures in the Northwest, and those people were involved."

"I don't believe it, the Cui family of Boling is the only one who dares to plan for the Grand Master."

Zhou Chen glanced at Cao Zhengchun and said.

As the emperor, Zhou Chen can exercise the power of the overlord even though sometimes he doesn't need evidence at all.

But Zhou Chen still didn't want to be a foolish emperor.

He wanted to see how much the Cui family of Boling participated in the previous change of the four prefectures in the Northwest, and how many people or wealthy families could be involved.

"Old servant obeys the order." Cao Zhengchun bowed immediately.

"Is there no news from Lu Bu?"

Zhou Chen asked again.

"Not yet." Cao Zhengchun shook his head.

not yet?

Zhou Chen's eyes drifted a little, and he fell silent.

Zhou Chen didn't know if Lv Bu wiped out the Cui family in Boling or not.

Although he has absolute confidence in Lu Bu, Zhou Chen also knows that a wealthy family like the Boling Cui family, one of the seven great families, is not so easy to deal with.

No one knows what kind of background a wealthy family like this has been handed down for so many years.

After a moment of silence, Zhou Chen waved his hand.

Then, Cao Zhengchun quietly retreated.

...

the next day.

early in the morning.

Outside the Jinluan Hall, civil and military officials were waiting here early, waiting for the morning court.

Compared with the previous few days, the atmosphere of today's civil and military officials is a bit dull. No one gathers to chat in two or three anymore, and they all stand there quietly.

Apparently, yesterday's news that Cui Yongyuan, Secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and more than 20 other officials were ransacked and exterminated in Dongchang, had a great impact on these civil and military ministers.

The Eight Sage King Zhou Xian, Marquis Wei Wu and Minister of the Ministry of War took a look at Du Ruhui, and walked towards Du Ruhui at the same time.

"Duchamp Book."

After the Eight Sage King Zhou Xian and the others came over, they greeted Du Ruhui.

Du Ruhui also greeted the Eight Sage King Zhou Xian, Marquis Wei Wu, and Minister of the Ministry of War respectively.

Eight Sage King Zhou Xian looked at Du Ruhui and said, "Du Shangshu, Cui Yongyuan, minister of the Ministry of Industry, and more than 20 officials were ransacked by Dongchang yesterday. Does Du Shangshu know what happened?"

Du Ruhui shook his head; "Dongchang directly obeys the emperor, how could I know the inside story."

Du Ruhui said.

How could a wise person like Du Ruhui fail to guess what the Eight Wise King Zhou Xian and the others wanted to ask.

However, Du Ruhui didn't intend to say more.

Because Du Ruhui deeply understands a truth, that is, you can do anything, but you can't speak with your mouth, you must be strict.

The Eight Sage King Zhou Xian, Marquis Wei Wu and Shangshu of the Ministry of War all took a deep look at Du Ruhui. They didn't believe that Du Ruhui didn't know the inside story.

You know, Du Ruhui had been in the palace for a long time yesterday.

However, since Du Ruhui didn't want to say more, they couldn't ask any more questions.

"squeak……"

The door of the Golden Luang Hall was wide open.

Morning start.

Civil and military officials walked into the Golden Luan Hall one by one.

"Long live the emperor, long live, long live."

After Zhou Chen sat on the dragon chair, all the officials knelt down and shouted.

Zhou Chen looked down at the officials below; "Everyone is flat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Baiguan stood up.

"Start playing if there is something to do, and leave the court if there is nothing to do."

Cao Zhengchun's sharp voice sounded.

All the officials stood silently in the Golden Luan Hall, as if they had discussed it, and no one had any intention of standing up and playing the right role today.

"Your Majesty, the old minister has something to play."

When the civil and military officials were silent, Prime Minister Yuan Bo stood up and said.

"What does the prime minister want to play?"

Zhou Chen glanced at Prime Minister Yuan Bo indifferently and asked.

"Your Majesty, the Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry and more than 20 court officials were ransacked by Dongchang yesterday."

"As the prime minister, the old minister is in charge of all officials, but he knows nothing about this matter."

"I also ask the emperor to allow the old minister to ask Eunuch Cao why so many court officials were arrested at once and their homes were raided."

Prime Minister Yuan Bo cupped his hands and said.

As the prime minister, Yuan Bo is in charge of all the officials, and he is also one of the auxiliary ministers of the imperial court, so he is indeed qualified to ask Cao Zhengchun why.

This is also very legitimate.

After Zhou Chen heard what the Prime Minister Yuan Bo said, he didn't answer, but turned to all civil and military officials; "All the lovers should have the same heart as the Prime Minister, and they all want to know why Cui Yongyuan and the others were convicted!"

"Since all the lovers want to know, Cao Zhengchun, then you can tell me."

Zhou Chen glanced at Cao Zhengchun and said.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Cao Zhengchun stepped forward in response, and glanced at Baiguandao softly; "According to Dongchang's investigation, the Cui family of Boling colluded with the traitors of the Huangtian Sect, murdered the grand master Wen Zhong, and bewitched Xiaoyao Wang Zhou Qian to raise the flag to rebel. Cui Yongyuan, as the Ministry of Industry, Shang Shu, taking money and breaking the law..."

A lot of crimes were read out from Cao Zhengchun's mouth.

All the officials heard a drastic change in expression.

What?

The Cui family of Boling colluded with Huang Tianjiao and murdered the Grand Master Wen Zhong?

Taishi Wenzhong was murdered by the Boling Cui family?

And the Xiaoyao King Zhouqian raised the flag to rebel and was also bewitched by the Cui family of Boling?

How is this possible?

The civil and military officials were shocked when they heard these shocking crimes.

None of them thought that the grand master Wen Zhong died in the four prefectures in the northwest, and the entire army of 30,000 Shenwuwei was annihilated, and it would be the Cui family of Boling who murdered him.

This is simply a bit earth-shattering, which makes people unbelievable.

As for bewitching Xiaoyao Wang Zhou Qian to raise the flag to rebel, this shocked all civil and military officials even more.

However, no matter what the crime is, if this order is confirmed, it will definitely end in ransacking the family.
