Luo Yangxing was frightened and hurriedly ran over: "Wan, Master, what are your instructions?"

"Kill them all!" Chongzhen said coldly,

For Emperor Chongzhen, no one dared to be so arrogant in front of them. He even thought that this was just an example.

Several well-dressed yamen runners were so brave that they dared to rob the people at their homes. This was awesome. These yamen runners deserved to die. Not only do they deserve to die, but the county magistrate of Xiongxian should be executed.

Luo Yangxing, the commander of the Jinyiwei, after receiving the oral order from Emperor Chongzhen, did not say a word, and the Jinyiwei who was disguised as a Jinyiwei was about to rush forward without saying a word.

At this moment, Zhu Cilang flashed out and stopped them.

Zhu Cilang shook his head gently at Luo Yangxing. Luo Yangxing was stunned. While hesitating, Zhu Cilang walked to Emperor Chongzhen: "Dad, if you kill these people, there will be no evidence. Let's keep them first, and then make a fool of yourself."

Emperor Chongzhen was furious: "Who else do you need to testify? All the officials in the court deserve to die!"

Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, civil officials of the Ming Dynasty have been common in all kinds of hard bones. When encountering principles related to national economy and people's livelihood, even small officials of low-ranking often argue against the emperor, and they are not afraid of being beaten in prison. They are in danger like the Beijing Defense War, and they are even more united in order to resist foreign humiliation.

There are many capable ministers in governing the country. Although there are many struggles in the court, most of the ministers can distinguish between the severity and responsibility. For example, Xia Yan pinched Zhang Cong, Zhang Juzheng teared Gao Gong, and no matter how much hatred they had, they would never destroy the country's major affairs. The glorious revival of the Ming Dynasty was carried by these responsible politicians.

However, by the Chongzhen period, these noble ministers all became corrupt.

The elite scholars and officials in the court, apart from busy plotting against each other, were hurriedly hiding and seeking when encountering problems. Chongzhen, who was so angry that he shouted the last words of "My ministers misled me" on the eve of the fall of the country, committed suicide. However, the scholars and officials were not stressed and went to Li Zicheng's peasant army to sell themselves. Such a collective and despicable performance was just like the great writer Feng Menglong scolded at that time: "How could he still live in the world secretly?"

He Liangjun, a writer during the Jiajing period, recalled that officials in the early Ming Dynasty were deeply educated and influenced by education. From the perspective of being indifferent to wealth and land, they valued integrity and reputation. Even in a wealthy area like Songjiang, the famous family of Zhou, Cao and Jiang, who had been a member of the Zhou family, had a medium-level living standard. Who would dare to enjoy the business of the industry when he was an official? He would inevitably be despised by the collective. At that time, the literati and officials were supported by this honest and self-confident belief.

But with the development of the economy, these noble officials have been completely corrupted. It is better to have a lot of good fortune than to spend money. It is a big deal. No matter how rich you have no money in your pocket, no matter how honest you pay, others will only sneer.

Originally, Yan Song fell, and after the iron-fisted rectification of reformers such as Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng, and strict laws and regulations such as the examination and law, they strictly supervised the officials of the Ming Dynasty, and successfully wiped out the dirty atmosphere during the Jiajing period and achieved the glory of "Longwan Zhongxing".

But after Zhang Juzheng passed away, Emperor Wanli, who had not been to court for thousands of years, popped up. The administrative efficiency of the Ming Dynasty was severely slowed down, and the so-called strict supervision was of course also become a cloud. Since the national affairs have stopped, the officials who pursued integrity and serve the country back then, of course, they have gained benefits by widening their eyes.

Emperor Wanli "don't go to the suburbs, no temples, no courts, no meetings, no criticisms, no talks." So much so that the ministers in the court had nothing to do in the court every day, and could only take a few days to get away with them. The Grand Secretary of the Cabinet who was promoted later did not know what Emperor Wanli looked like for many years.

The court's party struggles were unprecedentedly fierce. The Donglin Party, the eunuch Party, the Xuan Party, the Kun Party, the Qi Party, the Zhejiang Party, etc., a small court splitting out so many parties, which had never been in any dynasty. Second, the emperors after Wanli, except for the later Emperor Chongzhen was diligent in government affairs, Zhu Changluo and Zhu Youxiao were indulging in pleasure. Zhu Changluo was the emperor for only 28 days and died because of taking the medicine "red pill". Zhu Youxiao became a carpenter emperor. It can be said that these were the "good examples" set by Emperor Wanli for them.

Some people say that the demise of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty is actually not unreasonable. Although Wanli did not attend court for 30 years, the entire court was not in chaos. However, there was a serious phenomenon of lazy and lazy politics. Most officials were doing nothing, and some people started to make a lot of money.

This phenomenon continued until Chongzhen, and Emperor Chongzhen naturally hated these corrupt officials. When he saw these yamen runners rampantly, he could still bear it.

Emperor Chongzhen was originally an impatient person. With his temper, what else would he need to interrogate him? He caught him and all of them were caught. Anyway, you are all a group of dog officials, and I have seen it with my own eyes. No matter what crime you committed, it would be right to kill him.

Only by chopping these dog officials into pieces can we relieve the hatred in our hearts.

That's right, this can indeed relieve the hatred in my heart. But the problem still exists.

The problem cannot be managed from the root. What’s the use of killing these yamen runners? So what if you kill the county magistrate of Xiong County? If you replace the next term, it will remain the same.

Only by cutting off the root and cutting off this behavior, the Ming Dynasty will there be a real hope of revival.

Zhu Cilang could not explain so much to his father, and the angry Emperor Chongzhen could not listen so much.

"Dad, have you forgotten what the purpose of our departure from the palace? Let's leave this matter to the child." Zhu Cixuan said.

Although Emperor Chongzhen was still a little unwilling to do so, for his son's sake, he had to wave his hand angrily, indicating that Luo Yangxing would give up.

Zhu Cilang nodded at the secret guard Meng Fanchao beside him. Meng Fanchao was willing to understand the gods and immediately flew up and rushed towards the group of yamen runners who were doing evil.

The secret guard Meng Fanchao was a master among the masters. As soon as he took action, several yamen runners immediately became pissed.

The yamen runners were naturally furious. In broad daylight, someone dared to attack the officials. So they threw away the things they stolen from the people, pulled out their knives and surrounded Meng Fanchao.

He is worthy of being the world's number one secret guard. In the eyes of Meng Fanchao, these sword-holding yamen runners were almost like a group of ants. He said lightly, kicking their weapons away from each other and knocking them to the ground one by one.

A headmaster, covering his kicked chest, shouted from afar: "Who are you, you dare to hurt the people in our government."
