The Donglin Party was suddenly arrested by six radicals. The next day, a group of Donglin Party suddenly became uproar. At this moment, Zhu Youxiao's imperial edict to the world also came out.&1t;/p>

The imperial edict clarified that Li Xuanshi abused the crown prince and even killed the emperor's biological mother Wang Cairen, and denounced Yang Lian and others to deceive the emperor's young age, interfered in the family affairs of the emperor without authorization, and attempted to manipulate the emperor. At the same time, it issued an edict to confer Li Xuanshi as Concubine Kang and officially took charge of Ciqing Palace. After all, I was the most beloved woman of my best. Before my death, I clearly told the ministers that they wanted to give her the imperial concubine. Even if they were granted the imperial concubine, they could not threaten Zhu Youxiao's status.&1t;/p>

When the ministers saw this imperial edict, they were in a stir again.&1t;/p>

Although Zhu Youxiao was promoted to the throne by the Donglin Party, Zhu Youxiao himself was the crown prince, so his identity was legal. He could naturally jump out to liquidate the Donglin Party at this time. In history, Emperor Tianqi reckoned the Donglin Party and lived in simplicity. Obviously, it was not because he could not openly liquidate the Donglin Party, but probably because he was poisoned.&1t;/p>

The Qi Chuzhe Party looked excited. The emperor was naturally the most beneficial to them. However, the Qi Chuzhe Party was much looser than the Donglin Party. This is also the reason why the Qi Chuzhe Party could not compete for the Donglin Party without the support of the emperor in the court.&1t;/p>

Yang Lian and others were arrested, and the first shot to start a war against the Donglin Party had already been fired. The Jinyiwei and the Dongchang rushed to various provinces and quickly arrested all the families of Yang Lian and others and seized the assets.&1t;/p>

After a while, the assets were searched for nearly 100,000 taels of silver, and all kinds of assets of unknown origin. Yang Lian and other guys were not clean, otherwise how could they live with that little salary?&1t;/p>

Zhu Youxiao immediately asked someone to build a new prison next to the Royal Military Factory, and then sent Yang Lian and other criminals to the prison for "labor reform", including their families, all of whom were tattooed, put on prison uniforms, and under supervision every day, they went to the Royal Military Factory to do hard work.&1t;/p>

The prison is still relatively simple for the time being, but it has been under construction. It will take not long for a new prison with complete facilities to be built.&1t;/p>

Zhu Youxiao went to the prison for inspection in person. When the Saint Seiyao Yang Lian saw Zhu Youxiao, he immediately pointed at his nose and cursed: "The foolish lord, the foolish lord!"&1t;/p>

"Haha!" Zhu Youxiao laughed happily and asked Yang Lian: "My dear, are you very angry?"&1t;/p>

Hearing Zhu Youxiao's words, Yang Lian almost vomited blood. Since they were arrested, they were first detained in the East Factory Prison, but the East Factory spies did not even have any chance to argue, so they did not even have a chance to argue. Soon a group of young people also came in to accompany her, which surprised Yang Lian and others.&1t;/p>

Not only did their own family come in, but even their brother's little family are arrested.&1t;/p>

When these relatives saw Yang Lian and others, they either cried so hard that they were dark, or they scolded them for offending the emperor, and even implicated their relatives.&1t;/p>

The worst one is Zuo Guangdou. After one of his uncles and nephews was caught, he fought with Zuo Guangdou on the spot, pressed Zuo Guangdou to the ground and beat him up. Zuo Guangdou, whose nose was beaten to the bruised and swollen, was in good health. When Zhu Youxiao saw Zuo Guangdou's bruised and swollen nose, he immediately ordered: "Come on, go and ask an imperial doctor to see him, and then arrange an independent cell for him, so don't be beaten to death."&1t;/p>

"Your Majesty is so kind-hearted!" Li Jinzhong flattered.&1t;/p>

Zhu Youxiao inspected and revised the prison custody system. The criminals had young families and raised them well when they were old without having to participate in labor. Others were demoted to official slaves and arranged to work as hard laborers to squeeze out demographic dividends from them. The system referenced to a certain extent the model of the Song Dynasty.&1t;/p>

Yang Lian and others' families were repeatedly arrested, which also caused huge discussions in the court. Soon the memorial was sent to the Sili Supervisory Bureau like raindrops.&1t;/p>

Since Wang An was investigated and questioned by Zhu Youxiao, Zhu Youxiao promoted two eunuchs with good literary talent from Nei Shutang, one was the chief seal of the Sili Supervisor and the other was the pen of the Sili Supervisor. Li Jinzhong was focused on the affairs of the Dongchang.&1t;/p>

At this time, the Silijian basically had no power, and it was limited to helping the emperor handle memorials, drafting imperial edicts, etc. It had lost its management rights in the palace, and it no longer managed the imperial villages and imperial shops. Although it seemed that it was very powerful to process memorials and draft imperial edicts, it actually had no power.&1t;/p>

After all, two eunuchs with no other powers have no authority to manage personnel, and no military power. Their power is completely dependent on the imperial power. Zhu Youxiao can fire them at any time, which is basically equivalent to two secretaries.&1t;/p>

"Emperor, these hundreds of memorials are all against the joint seat." The eunuch in charge of the seal of the Sili Supervisor was named Li Chaoqing. He was a eunuch in his forties and had a very stable personality. After serving as the Sili Supervisor, he would sort the memorials in the Sili Supervisor every day and then send them to the emperor.&1t;/p>

"Give it all!" Zhu Youxiao waved his hand. Zhu Youxiao was too lazy to read such memorials. It was naturally very normal for the ministers to oppose the system of the central government. How many officials in the Ming Dynasty have clean foundations?&1t;/p>

Yang Lian and others were arrested and imprisoned, and a group of people from the Donglin Party began to plan for the issue of how to rescue them. Seeing that the individual's memorial was not effective, the Donglin Party began to jump up and down, and gave the emperor a joint memorial.&1t;/p>

Facing the Donglin Party who was still dancing non-stop, Zhu Youxiao was really annoyed.&1t;/p>

Is it easy to be an emperor?&1t;/p>

Dealing with a few ministers is like stabbing a hornet's nest.&1t;/p>

"Li Jinzhong, Tian Ergeng, you two will investigate these Donglin Party immediately. Anyone who embezzles and accepts bribes will be arrested and imprisoned." Zhu Youxiao called Li Jinzhong and Tian Ergeng into the palace and gave instructions to the two of them.&1t;/p>

"Yes, the emperor." The two promised, and Zhu Youxiao looked at them. The relationship between them seemed to be good recently. Jinyiwei and Dongchang seem to be in their honeymoon period recently!&1t;/p>

Then why separate? Let's just merge.&1t;/p>

"Whoever found more, I have a reward." Zhu Youxiao glanced at the two of them, and then said something inadvertently. Tian Ergeng's eyes lit up. Tian Ergeng, who had just been promoted to commander of the Jinyiwei, did not dare to compete with Li Jinzhong. After all, Li Jinzhong was the emperor's closest confidant. However, this time the emperor's words were obviously going to provoke competition.&1t;/p>

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The two of them thanked him, and Li Jinzhong naturally knew what was going on. Since the emperor ascended the throne, he has shown extremely clever balance skills.&1t;/p>

The power of the In-Ci Lijian was weakened. He was the Admiral of the East Factory and Zhang Yan was the Admiral of the Imperial Horse Supervision. No eunuch in the Palace could manage the overall situation.&1t;/p>

However, Li Jinzhong was not very worried, just do things with care.&1t;/p>

After the two left the palace, Jinyiwei and Dongchang immediately played the anti-corruption card. This card was like a king's bombing, which had a huge lethality to the Donglin Party.&1t;/p>

Just by just a random investigation, the Jinyiwei and the Dongchang caught many corruption pigtails of the Donglin Party. Every day, the Donglin Party officials were taken away by the Jinyiwei and the Dongchang for interrogation. The evidence was found that they were in jail.&1t;/p>

The Donglin Party was in chaos and complained about grievances, as if it was saying, "Emperor, you don't play according to the rules, you have already "defensively". How many foundations are there in these days? Is the court's salary enough for them to survive?&1t;/p>

However, this was the first time that the emperor's attitude scared many Donglin Party officials. For a time, except for the relatively honest officials of the Donglin Party, everyone was in danger, fearing that they would be broken into the door by Jinyiwei and Dongchang's men in the middle of the night. At the same time, they hoped to find some achievements to win back the emperor's trust in them.&1t;/p>

Unfortunately, the achievements were not found, and Zhu Youxiao found another major case. The reason why this major case was found by Zhu Youxiao was mainly caused by the quarterly statements of the Royal Bank of the Ming Dynasty.&1t;/p>

The quarterly profit of the Royal Bank of Ming Dynasty was very bad. A large amount of deposit funds were used to invest in agricultural land reclamation, and profits would not be generated for a while.&1t;/p>

In order to reverse the poor profit problem of the Royal Bank of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Youxiao thought of minting coins. Although the Ming Dynasty's banknotes depreciated to withdraw from the market, aren't there any copper coins minting?&1t;/p>

After a long time, Zhu Youxiao didn't know how much money the official coins could earn every year. So Zhu Youxiao asked the chief supervisor of the Sili to go to the cabinet to ask Ye Xianggao's income from coining.&1t;/p>

Ye Xianggao didn't know, so he went to ask for it specifically, and then he reported that the "Taichang Tongbao" that was cast in half a year, he only earned 15,000 taels.&1t;/p>
