Hearing Li Xiaohua's heart-wrenching words, the ministers had their own thoughts.

I scolded Master Zuo in my heart with a little conscience. I usually see others five or six, but I always do it. Who is the first kind of person? I didn’t expect that this kind of person behind my back will cause people so badly.

Those who have no conscience are lamenting that Lord Zuo is really not clean in doing things. If it were him, this girl named Li would have been killed by them long ago.

"Everyone has seen that now people have proved evidence and the late emperor issued an order that anyone who oppressed the people as officials would be imprisoned at the least, and the family would be confiscated and executed at the worst. Lord Zuo, is what I said right?"

Lord Zuo is now scared to death: "The emperor calms down, this matter... this matter is wronged..."

"Hmph, I'm still stubborn. Here comes Lord Zuo bullies the people and harms innocent people. He is extremely guilty. He takes his official hat and clothes and is sent to the East Factory Prison!"

The Dongchang Prison is not an ordinary prison. Strictly speaking, that place belongs to people who are specifically responsible for the crime of rebellion.

The punishment inside is not only more cruel and painful than ordinary prisons, but you can't find any connection to look at people inside.

After all, Dongchang is directly responsible to the emperor, and no one will give you face.

Lord Zuo's expression changed wildly: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

Wang Chong shook his hand, and two big guards stepped forward and dragged Lord Zuo who was crying.

The adults next to him were leaping in disguise.

If Wang Chong had arrested people for no reason, these people would have jumped up and pointed at Wang Chongda and cursed, but it would definitely not work now.

"Mr. Huang."

When Wang Chong called out Lord Huang, Lord Huang, who was still kneeling on the ground, was obviously stunned: "I am... I am..."

"Didn't you scold me for being unstable in the people's hearts before? But what I heard you did made people's hearts even more unstable."

"Your Majesty, I know my mistake..."

Lord Huang obviously knew that Wang Chong must have secretly investigated some of their crimes in the past few days to punish them.

This is because they are treated as the first to be successful. They are extremely regretful for a moment, so they simply admit their mistakes and hope that Wang Chong will make a fuss.

It’s a pity that Wang Chong would let them go at this time?

Wang Chong ignored him and said directly: "Take the person out."

"Soon, dozens of civilians were brought out."

Wang Chong pointed at them and said, "Mr. Huang, I heard that you have tens of millions of fertile land in your hometown, three luxury houses, and dozens of wives and concubines. I am very curious. Before you became an official, you were just a poor scholar. How could you earn so much money and so much fertile land in just a few decades? Lord. Why don't you teach me!"

Lord Huang was so scared that he burst into tears, "Emperor, I am not guilty, please forgive me."

At this moment, he looked humble and humble, and he was no different from a villain before.

This is the character of a scholar.

"These people originally had a happy family and a happy life. The family lived a peaceful life and lived a peaceful life by farming. But because of you, they occupied their fertile land and caused them to lose their source of life. Do you think you deserve to die?"

"I am willing to return the fertile land and silver, and I ask the emperor to give me kindness."

"It's too late, I'm here. Lord Huang bullies the people and occupies fertile land, causing people to be resentful and live in poverty. He is really a serious crime. He strips him of his official clothes and hats and gets him into the East Factory Prison!"

"yes!"

Then, Wang Chong shouted again: "Bring the next person up."

The one who came up was a middle-aged woman. Seeing this person, Lord Duan, who was kneeling, collapsed to the ground in fear.

Because he knows it.

That day, he got drunk and met a private house on the way. When he saw the woman very beautiful and went over to tease her in a confused manner.

After he succeeded, her husband came to make trouble. Finally, he used methods to get the woman's husband into prison. The woman was tired of playing for some time and was kicked out. She didn't expect to appear here...

"Your Majesty, please spare me. Your Majesty, I am aware of the crime!"

The woman also knelt down: "Please be the emperor to make the decision for the people, and please save my husband."

Wang Chong said: "Don't worry, I will definitely make the decision for you. Lord Duan, since you have pleaded guilty, I won't say much. Come and take someone down and get sent to the East Factory Prison!"

"Lu Xiang helps, Lu Xiang helps..."

This Lord Duan and Lu Xiang were close to each other recently, so in desperation, he quickly asked for help.

Wang Chong turned his head and looked at Lu Zhongbo, sneering in his heart, I will pull out your minions one by one, and it depends on what you do.

Wang Chong is now probing that Lu Zhongbo dares not to tear off his face. After all, he loses too much now.

So what if there is more money, it’s useless to have no soldiers in your hands. In other words, the emperor used to be a soft man and dared not really use his troops to suppress him.

Lu Zhongbo knew that it would be impossible not to stand up at this time, otherwise other ministers would be scared by Wang Chong's actions.

"Your Majesty, although these adults have committed serious crimes, the case is full of doubts. I think there is no need to be sent to the East Factory Prison."

As long as he is not transferred to the East Factory Prison, he will have a way to get them out.

No matter how bad it is, it’s okay to give them some money to run away.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Zhongbo continued: "In addition, these adults have worked hard without credit. The relatives of the adults who were sent to the East Factory Prison cannot visit them. Please think twice."

Wang Chong stared at Lu Zhongbo and said, "There are all evidences here, what are the doubts? But Lu Xiang, you reminded me that it is very bad that the families of several adults cannot see them."

"Fortunately, I suddenly realized that their crimes were so serious. It was not enough to just get into prison, so people came!"

"I'm here." He Taigao walked over.

"I asked Lingdong Factory to search the house and all the families were brought to the prison to see the future."

"Plop..."

The remaining group of ministers collapsed to the ground.

Lu Zhongbo's expression changed. The emperor did it on purpose. It would be fine if he didn't say it, but he actually wanted to search the house after he said it.

Wang Zhong sneered in his heart, and he knew that Lu Zhongbo would plead with mercy, so he deliberately kept it without saying anything. In fact, no matter whether Lu Zhongbo would say it or not, he would raid the house.

After all, the ministers are very rich in their families, so they won’t copy them and keep them for the New Year?

"Okay, who else is dissatisfied?" Wang Chong glanced at all the ministers and said with a smile: "Who else is dissatisfied? I'm not unreasonable. If you really have an objection, I will definitely understand. Of course, the premise is that what you said should be the same as what you did."

The faces of a group of ministers were all bad.

To be honest, the ministers present, who had clean butts, even the so-called loyal minister Li Mingcai, dare not say that he was very clean.

Therefore, I was afraid that I would be implicated, so no one dared to speak for a while.

But if they don’t say it doesn’t mean that Wang Chong will stop talking.

Looking at the several ministers kneeling, Wang Chong continued to name one by one, and anyone whose names were pointed were pale.

Without exception, all of these people were sent to prison.

Those who are guilty of serious crimes will be searched.

In fact, Wang Chong didn't say anything, that is, after the trial, it would be more than just a house search. In the future, he would open many clothing factories and mining, which required a lot of manpower. The men in these people's families are a good source of labor.

The girl sent her to the brothel and made money for him.

He had already thought of the imperial edict, and the males were demoted to slaves, and all female relatives were prostitutes, and they could be released after working for a certain number of years.

This is his punishment.

What? If you don’t want to do it? Then die!

Soon, the dozen or so ministers who were originally kneeling were taken away. Some of the remaining people secretly wiped their sweat, thinking that they were fortunately not like these people. They were encouraged by Lu Xiang for a few words, and they foolishly forced the emperor. Otherwise, they would be the one who searched the house.

While secretly being grateful, these people are actually very worried.

The emperor's methods are so fierce that they are completely different from before. They are all not clean. If this continues, who can guarantee that they can rest assured?

"My dear friends, who has something to say?" Wang Chong said lightly.

There was really no one talking, even Lu Zhongbo didn't say anything because he knew that nothing he said now was useless, and the emperor had already regarded him as a thorn in his side.

Murderous intent emerged in Lu Zhongbo's eyes.

A vicious plan emerged in Lu Zhongbo's heart.

The killer can't kill you, and the military power is not in my hands. I really can't do it, but I can still make the world a mess.

In fact, Lu Zhongbo's approach was the worst strategy, because he used to just want to make money, but only when his wealth reached a certain level, he began to recruit soldiers and horses.

Therefore, he is actually a vested interest in peace in the world and does not want chaos in the world.

The chaos in the world is very inconvenient for him to make money. If he is not good at making a true emperor, then as a minister of the previous dynasty, he will be executed.

But now he is unavailable. If the emperor doesn’t die, he will die!

………………………………

Today, the incident of Wang Chong arresting more than a dozen ministers in the imperial capital quickly spread throughout the imperial capital, and even the news spread around the imperial capital.

Originally, Wang Chong arrested all corrupt officials, which was a great thing.

But who knew that the news became more and more outrageous, saying that the emperor was damaging loyal and kind-hearted, and those ministers just proposed to reduce taxes, so the emperor arrested them into the boss and even had to search the house.

In order to be greedy for enjoyment.

Not only that, the emperor also violated his filial piety and put the empress dowager under house arrest.
