The three cabinet members immediately knelt down.
They were certain that if they hesitated even for a moment, their heads would roll immediately.
“Draft the abdication edict and preside over the abdication ceremony.”
Ying Zheng gave the order.
"Yes~"
The three of them quickly responded.
"General Wang Jian shall immediately take over the defense of the capital and order all people to return home. Anyone who wanders outside shall be killed without mercy!"
"Li Si, you are in full charge of all matters related to the abdication. All princes, nobles, civil and military officials and their families in the capital shall gather in front of the abdication platform."
"Meng Yi, Zhang Han, you are to monitor the capital city in full. Any civil or military official, wealthy gentry, scholar, or candidate who criticizes Her Majesty the Empress shall have their property confiscated and their entire family exterminated."
?炷?炷
Orders were issued one after another.
Not to mention the civil and military officials in the Fengtian Hall, even Emperor Chongzhen, Zhu Youjian, was sweating profusely.
"Who are you?"
"What exactly do you want to do?"
"Do you know that the Minister Liu you just killed was a rare and incorruptible official who wore patched official robes to court every day?"
“Censor Wang, Censor Chen, and Censor Fang 4.0 are also loyal and outspoken officials. How could you wantonly slaughter them?”
Emperor Chongzhen, Zhu Youjian, glared at Ying Zheng and roared hysterically.
Ying Zheng had just almost wiped out all the loyal ministers of the Ming Dynasty.
"injustice!"
"My loyal ministers and generals!"
Emperor Chongzhen, Zhu Youjian, burst into tears as he spoke.
The person in front of me has no idea how to govern the world, and he doesn't understand the way of the emperor at all.
The Ming Dynasty is doomed to perish if it is controlled by such people.
"Your Majesty, we have seized three million taels of silver and five hundred thousand taels of gold from Minister Liu's home."
“One million taels of silver and ninety thousand taels of gold were confiscated from the home of Imperial Censor Wang.”
"Nine hundred thousand taels of silver and one hundred and twenty thousand taels of gold were confiscated from the home of Imperial Censor Liu."
?炷?炷
Just then, one after another, the Shadow Guard experts reported.
These are the assets of officials who have just been executed.
Emperor Chongzhen, Zhu Youjian: "?炷?炷".
Chapter 71 Absolutely impossible, why does the camp seem a bit cramped?
"impossible!"
"Absolutely impossible!"
"How could they possibly have so much money?"
Emperor Chongzhen, Zhu Youjian, looked as if struck by lightning, his expression contorted with rage, and said...
Previously, in order to raise 100,000 taels of silver for military pay, he repeatedly asked officials to donate. Among them, Minister Liu, who was known for his integrity, donated 100 taels of silver, which he praised highly and rewarded with ten pieces of brocade.
Now tell him that Minister Liu's family has three million taels of silver and five hundred thousand taels of gold.
fake!
It must be fake!
If these loyal ministers and generals in his eyes have such large fortunes, then how much money must the corrupt officials in his eyes have?
"Help Father Emperor to the side hall to rest."
Ah Jiu looked helpless and said.
If Emperor Chongzhen (Zhu Youjian) were allowed to stay any longer, he would likely die upon realizing who was in front of him.
"I'm not leaving. I want to see how you manage to control the capital!"
"There are still tens of thousands of elite troops in the capital. Once they hear the commotion inside the palace, they will definitely come to the rescue."
How could Emperor Chongzhen, Zhu Youjian, possibly give up his throne?
Moreover, he never considered himself a tyrant.
He was diligent in his duties, loved the people, was frugal, and set an example for others. How many emperors in history could do what he did?
"Since the Emperor Emeritus wants to see it so much, let him see it."
"Order the Golden Fire Cavalry and the Hundred-Battle Armored Soldiers to conduct a comprehensive inventory of the assets of officials, princes, nobles, and wealthy merchants inside and outside the capital."
"Any family with assets exceeding 100,000 taels of silver shall have their property confiscated and their entire clan exterminated."
Ying Zheng said coldly.
He had already gained a general understanding of the political situation of Emperor Chongzhen through the historical records uploaded by Ip Man.
The nation is facing a life-or-death crisis, yet these officials, wealthy merchants, and nobles, despite possessing vast fortunes, do not think of serving their country and deserve to die.
Of course, the most important thing was that Ying Zheng also wanted to carry out a comprehensive cleanup of the Ming Dynasty.
The Ming Dynasty was already rotten to the core.
Keeping these officials and wealthy merchants who lived during the Chongzhen era would only allow them to carry the corrupt practices of that era into the next dynasty.
"Even if we kill all the officials, it won't matter."
Ying Zheng remained remarkably calm.
Behind every member of the chat group lies a world. While it may be difficult to find a three-legged toad, there are countless two-legged officials.
"It's time for us to take action."
Looking at the valiant and decisive Ying Zheng, Xiong Ba couldn't help but turn his gaze to Li Xunhuan.
The Ming Dynasty is now beset by internal and external troubles.
The problems in the imperial court were resolved by Ying Zheng.
As for the problem of external enemies, he has to intervene, otherwise he will have a hard time getting many points in this group mission.
"When the master goes online, I also want to trade with him for a mount, otherwise it's too inconvenient to travel."
The secret passage to the overlord.
"It just so happens that the Ming army and the Qing army are engaged in the Battle of Songjin. The main force of the Qing army is in the Songjin area. As long as the main force of the Qing army is dealt with, the Qing army will not be a problem."
Li Xunhuan nodded.
So Li Xunhuan once again acted as a transporter.
They transported the chat group members, along with top experts such as Gai Nie, Donghuang Taiyi, Beimingzi, Xunzi, and Wei Zhuang, to the area of the Songjin Battle.
So Ying Zheng was busy preparing for the abdication ceremony in the capital, as well as the executions and confiscation of property.
The others in the chat group, as well as the top experts from the Qin world, were transported to Songshan City.
Songshan City and Jinzhou City were two major military strongholds in the Battle of Songjin.
The Qing army's objective was to capture Jinzhou, destroy the Ningjin defense line, and clear the way for their entry into the Central Plains.
The Ming army was there to rescue Jinzhou and lift the siege of the city.
The Ming army was originally capable of fighting the Qing army, but unfortunately, under the urging of Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youjian and the court, the Ming army was besieged by the Qing army, cutting off all its communication with the rear and its food and supplies.
Meanwhile, in the Qing army camp...
Huang Taiji sat upright in the camp, full of vigor, his eyes bright and piercing, and he could not hide the smile on his face.
In the early stages of the Battle of Songjin, the Ming army held the advantage and inflicted considerable losses on the Qing army.
However, he had a good teammate, Emperor Chongzhen, Zhu Youjian.
With the cooperation of Emperor Chongzhen (Zhu Youjian), the Ming army had no choice but to hastily engage in battle with the Qing army.
Although the Ming army had a numerical advantage, the Qing army consisted mainly of cavalry.
Under such circumstances, it would be utterly unjust if the Qing army failed to win, as Emperor Chongzhen (Zhu Youjian) repeatedly urged Hong Chengchou to launch an offensive.
"Your Majesty, we have now completely surrounded the Ming army, and their supplies are almost exhausted. Shouldn't we launch an attack?"
Prince Zheng, Jirhalang, the head of the Bordered Blue Banner, was somewhat excited and said.
Emperor Chongzhen, Zhu Youjian, never imagined that the Ming army would suffer such a crushing defeat.
The Qing army was also surprised to achieve such a great victory.
The Qing army's original strategic objective was to destroy the Ningjin defense line.
