At the Yue Palace, Zhao Yuanhua's face turned pale. Even though he was one of the founders of Qianxiang Camp who was killing people, he was furious about this incident.

He made great contributions and planned for half a year to successfully rescue Emperor Longwu from Fuzhou, and since then he has reached the top. Who knew that later encountered a case of a salt merchant in Yangzhou that caused Hou Xuanyan to demote him to three levels in a row.

This time in the Battle of Hejian, Zhao Yuanhua led troops to support him with the position of Shandong Governor. When the Fire Camp was defeated and retreated, the sea was flowing, and Zhao Yuanhua decisively decided to order a counterattack. Li Haoxian was not a person who took credit for the blame, but told Hou Xuanyan the whole story. Zhao Yuanhua became the Minister of Justice, one of the heads of the six ministries.

It took only three days for Lord Shangshu to sit on the throne, and such a big thing happened, which was a miserable fate.

Hou Xuanyan had heard from the door, and knew that Zhao Yuanhua had been waiting in the living room for a long time, and took Xu Yuanbao and Hong Yizhuo through the living room. Zhao Yuanhua immediately met him.

"Prince."

Seeing him with a shame, Hou Xuanyan chuckled and said, "Come to the study to talk."

After entering the study, Hou Xuanyan lit a candle, sat on the chair of the Grand Master, pressed his hands and said, "Sit down, don't even put on this face. This is not your fault. But I am ugly in my head. If it cannot calm down in time, it is our fault."

"Now the people in the court are in panic. Those dismissed are jumping up and down, promoting some sensational words, trying not to maintain their official position, but also want to change the order of the court."

Hou Xuanyan sneered and said, "I have fought from south to north, from Guangdong and Guangxi to Liaodong for so long, and they just won and are about to jump out to pick peaches? When the Qing soldiers headed south, they were very honest. I think our methods are so kind."

Zhao Yuanhua's pupils tightened, and he clenched his fists and said, "Don't worry, I will find out the murderer behind the scenes within three days, so I will give you an explanation."

Hou Xuanyan shook his eyes, looked up and glanced at him, cursing, "You don't believe it, you don't believe it, why do you check it? This group of dog thieves will kill one for a while, and another one will pop up in a few days. Now the southwest corner has not yet been stubborn, the strong enemy in Liaodong is still there, the Zheng family in the southeast is lurking, and the wolves are around the northwest. The blood feud of the massacre of the city in Korea has not been avenged, and the great hatred of Mongolia sending troops to assist the Qing Dynasty has not disappeared. We have no energy to flee with them. The regicide case has only been a few days since the Qianxiang Camp has become a constable and the yamen runner-up? Is it necessary to investigate the case first when killing people!"

Zhao Yuanhua was scolded, but when he went out, he changed his anger and depressedness when he was about to be polished, his eyes were as if they were polished and his steps were light and his walking was windy.

After getting what Hou Xuanyan said, it was like a lie on his side sword. In the past, it was not that his sword was unhappy, but that Hou Xuanyan was heartbroken. Over time, they were used to being restrained.

Hou Xuanyan, who was delayed several major events, fully understood the saying that all literati can be killed.

At the third update of the night, the gate of Jinling slowly opened, and strange teams with black armor in black clothes, red tassels and short blades hanging on their waists, and holding muskets entered the city.

Zhao Yuanhua was extremely happy. Looking at his men who had been trained, he could finally get a glimpse of the whole picture.

There were a thousand people in this column, and they bowed together and said, "Commander."

"The prince said at the beginning that the hidden elephant is like a dragon entering the clouds when he is hidden, and like a tiger returning to the mountain. When he appears, he will have the power to run to the elephant. You have been hiding in the dark for so long, it is time for the world to know what we exist."

Zhan Shifu was an official position created by Emperor Hongwu. Zhu Yuanzhang summoned famous scholars from all over the world and gathered them in Zhan Shifu, and awarded them a rare high-ranking official position in the Ming Dynasty, in order to promote Confucianism and educate the prince.

These people are familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, well-versed in Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism, and are authentic Confucian celebrities. Later, Zhan Shifu became the former station of the Hanlin Academy, and the Jinshi masters who were proficient in eight-legged essays went further. Hou Xuanyan eliminated the Yansheng Gong Mansion, and the Zhan Shifu was full of curses. This time, he was promoted to the title of king and even stabbed the hornet's nest. These people did not dare to scold him openly, and secretly wrote many satirical poems and novels, holding guns and sticks to ridicule and implicitly.

Zhan Shi Zhao Shichao of Zhan Shi's House also has another identity. He is Huang Daozhou's disciple, so he has always hated Hou Xuanyan very deeply.

It was late at night and the lights in the Zhao Mansion were brightly lit. Zhao Shichao, who had stepped down from his post, is now drinking with several of his former colleagues.

There are even beauties singing and dancing in the guest room, all of which are his newly bought singers and dancers. These cute babies are graceful and pretty, and you can tell at a glance that they are very valuable. Zhao Shichao naturally doesn't rely on his own salary.

Zhao Shichao drank a glass of wine and sighed, "It's a pity that Lord Lu. If it weren't for Lord Lu and Lord Liu's support, Hou Xuan would be the son of the Northern Expedition. How could he succeed? It's a pity that he killed the enemy just now. He was really a mean and heartless person."

"Hou Xuanyan is mean and polite, not only that. I heard that Mr. Lu and Mr. Hou Dongzeng are old friends. He was not loyal or filial to him when he killed Mr. Lu."

"This person dares to kill even Yan Shenggong, but he still cares about these?"

Several people were talking loudly, and suddenly there was a loud noise. After someone dismantled the front door of Zhao's mansion, they fell to the ground. They were dozing at the door, and when they woke up, they were held on their necks with a knife, and they didn't dare to say a word.

The adults in the living room were drunk and their red faces were about to get angry when they saw a group of people in strange military uniforms breaking into the reception hall. The dancer screamed and dispersed, but these uninvited guests did not stop them.

Liu Ting was the commander of the Jinyiwei on his face, and secretly he was the deputy commander of the Qianxiang Camp. Zhao Shichao met him in the same palace every day, so he naturally knew him. Moreover, the head of his mentor Huang Daozhou was sent by Liu Ting to the Fuzhou court. After seeing him, Zhao Shichao said angrily: "Liu Ting, you broke into my official's residence late at night. If you can't come up with the reason for your conviction, I will never finish it with you."

Liu Ting was born as a personal soldier in Hou Xuanyan. He destroyed the whole family for the first time four years ago. He was so scared that he didn't dare to take action. He went to Qinhuai River to pull Hou Xuanyan out to boost his courage and killed Qian Qianyi's family. Four years have passed, and he is no longer the Wuxia Among of the past. He sneered: "What official do you think? Didn't you remove you from the list yesterday? Are you shameless?"

Zhao Shichao's face turned red and he shouted, "Even if we resign, why should you break into a private house?"

"First, you were expelled, not resigned, don't gild yourself. Second, you unruly people have committed the crime of insulting the imperial officials and slandering the regent."

Zhao Shichao and his accomplices looked at each other and asked with courage: "What evidence do you have?"

Liu Ting pinched his waist and smiled, "You're not here..." After saying that, he waved his hand and said, "Kill them all, hold your head and ask for help."

At the same time, the same play was performed in various streets of Jinling, the residences of the formerly glorious court ministers. In this night alone, forty officials of the fifth rank and above were cleaned.

Qianxiang Camp started neatly and the lives of the people were not affected at all. It was not until early the next morning that the family members of the Ministry of Justice Brigade rushed to various houses. There were also some fence-riding officials with ambiguous attitudes, and were invited to the Qianxiang Camp's old nest office at the foot of Qinglong Mountain for tea.

Some people came back, kept silent and never mentioned what happened. Some people didn't come back as soon as they left, but instead the raiding brigade arrived as promised.

The people in Jinling were surprised to find that there was too much fun today and they didn’t know which one to eat.

It has been a century-old practice for officials in Jiangnan to collude with merchants, and merchants contribute to officials being promoted, and then senior officials feed back their businessmen.

Even Hou Xuanyan's rise did not break away from this cliché. The Gu family in Suzhou and the Wu family in Jinling were his early vaults.

After dealing with the officials on the first day, the next day was the wealthy merchants and gentry who had close contact with them. In just a few days, more than a thousand people had been killed, and the terrified merchants and officials began to walk around.

Chen Mingyu's threshold was broken. He was the chief minister of the cabinet and an honest person. The kind-hearted old Chen felt that Hou Xuanyan had done too much. He remembered that Hou Xuanyan was not such a person. He came to Hou's mansion with a basket of plums in his yard.

Hou Xuanyan was still angry and looked at the stacks of dense scrolls in the study, all of which were interrogated.

These crimes were for Hou Xuanyan to watch, so naturally there was no falsehood. They were all based on real evidence. I thought I was taking the opportunity to eliminate dissidents, but I didn’t expect to dig out a group of borers. It really responded to the saying that I beheaded first and then investigated the case, and there was no wrong case.

One by one, the profiteering merchants took advantage of the loopholes in the court's rules to bribe officials and opened the door to convenience for them. Tax evasion, embezzlement of funds, and enriched their personal pockets. All of this made Hou Xuanyan, who was a man of two lives, feel familiar, and became even more surprisingly angry!

What the people in Jinling were seeing may have been various published announcements, but Hou Xuanyan was all the truth, so he became even more angry.

Hou Xuanyan slapped the table, his face full of righteousness, and King Kong was angry: "Everyone is hypocritical, I didn't expect it to be so unbearable!"

His second brother and he are in the same heart and virtue, and he is also angry. However, Hou Xuanyan stood up and cheated his brother.

With a slap, Xiao Xuanyan broke away from her two rosy and plump lips, and Hou Xuanyan suddenly felt a chill in her lower body.

Two famous flowers on the Qinhuai River, Chen Yuanyuan and Bian Yujing, who are beautiful and beautiful, are slightly open-minded and their white skin is half hidden and half exposed, and the female is lying under the table. Fortunately, in Hou Xuanyan's study, there is a carpet from the Western Regions, which is light, soft, soft and thick, so that it does not hurt their delicate knees.

Both of them were holding hands behind their backs, with their chests and heads raised. A strand of black hair on their heads was tied to one place by Hou Xuanyan, which made the two of them stick to their pretty cheeks, and could not leave the distance of one punch.

Hou Xuanyan got up and sat on the small bed in the study room, stretched out his hand, Chen Yuanyuan and Bian Yujing turned red, and they used their knees as their legs, slowly slid over, continuing their unfinished career. They didn't even touch the pain in their hair, which showed that they had a very tacit understanding.

At this time, a maid pushed the door and said, "Master, Chen Ming came to the living room in front of him to meet Lord Chen. This little maid was untied by Huang Yinger and the other two last time. She was considered a person she had eaten and met, so she was not surprised.

Hou Xuanyan stood up, covered her plain white robe, touched her pretty face and said, "I'll come when I go."

When the door closed sounded, the two of them put their hands back and sat on the carpet to rest. It turned out that the Hao wrist was not tied, but Hou Xuanyan ordered them to carry their hands behind their backs.
