Sky Curtain: The opening scene explains the four major cases of the Ming Dynasty plus the early Ming

Xu Youzhen's tearful accusations were like the fuse that ignited a powder keg.

The oppressive atmosphere in front of the Fengtian Hall suddenly exploded!

But the direction of the explosion was beyond everyone's expectations.

"Traitor Yu Qian! Give me back the land of the Ming Dynasty!"

An official was the first to rush out, roaring.

However, his target was not Yu Qian at the top, but Chen Xun, the Grand Secretary beside Yu Qian, who was already pale as a ghost!

"Chen Xun! Wang Wen! Your Jiangxi clique has dominated the court for fifty years! You've practiced nepotism and formed factions for personal gain! Do you still intend to murder the emperor and usurp the throne?!"

Jiangxi Gang!

These three words were like a spell, instantly igniting the eyes of more than half of the officials present!

Their eyes have changed!

It was no longer fear and suspicion, but resentment and greed that had been suppressed for decades!

Yes!

Looking for the emperor?

What's the use of finding those two puppets, one sickly and the other imprisoned?!

Even if they escape, without military power or court officials, they're still lambs to the slaughter.

But the political enemy in front of us is a real power!

Yu Qian was their powerful backer, while Chen Xun and Wang Wencai were their foundation! The Jiangxi clique of officials, centered in Jiangxi, Zhejiang, and Fujian, was like a towering tree with intertwined roots, occupying the most prestigious positions in the court and blocking the path to advancement for countless people!

Today is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity bestowed by heaven!

If we don't kill them now, when will we?!

"Kill them!"

Someone shouted that from the crowd.

The next second, the string of reason snapped completely!

An imperial censor suddenly slammed his ivory tablet down hard on Wang Wen's head!

A muffled "bang"!

Wang Wen screamed in agony as blood gushed from his forehead!

That scream was like the clarion call to war!

"Kill these traitors from Jiangxi!"

"Purge the court of corrupt officials! Execute the traitors!"

At this moment, hundreds of civil officials dressed in brocade robes transformed into the most primal beasts!

They roared and howled, like a flood bursting its banks, sweeping towards Yu Qian, Chen Xun, and Wang Wen!

Fengtian Hall Square, the most solemn and majestic place in the Ming Dynasty, has been completely reduced to a bloody gladiatorial arena!

What's with all this talk of being refined and respectable?

What kind of colleague relationship?

They were all torn to shreds!

They tore at each other's official robes, scratched each other's faces, and trampled the official hats that symbolized status and honor under their feet!

The official tablet became a weapon, and fists and feet became the only language!

The first Ming Dynasty Civil Officials Unrestricted Fighting Tournament has begun in a way that no one expected!

Yu Qian stood in the center of the crowd, completely dumbfounded.

He looked at his former colleagues, who used to bow and exchange poems with him, now fighting like mad dogs.

An official was straddled by another man, who was gripping his neck tightly, his face turning as red as a pig's liver.

Another official's robe was torn open, revealing his undergarments underneath, leaving him in a disheveled state.

This is not the imperial court!

This is hell!

He tried to stop them, but an official rushed up and punched him hard in the face!

"Yu Qian! You hypocrite! If it weren't for you, my son wouldn't have been exiled for ten years and unable to return to the capital!"

Yu Qian staggered backward, blood seeping from the corner of his mouth.

He looked at those faces twisted with jealousy and greed, and felt utterly hopeless.

He got it.

These people don't care who the emperor is or who the traitor is.

They only care about who's in their way!

Yu Qian, and the order he represents, are the biggest stumbling block!

Just then, the sound of an imperial carriage approached urgently from afar.

"The Empress Dowager has arrived!"

The sharp, shrill voice of the eunuchs ripped through the chaotic air.

Empress Dowager Sun, surrounded by a group of palace maids and eunuchs, hurried over. When she saw the scene before her, which resembled a street brawl, she was completely stunned!

"stop!"

"Stop it, all of you!! Stop fighting!"

Empress Dowager Sun's voice became sharp and shrill due to extreme anger!

"Do you have no regard for the law? No regard for me?!"

For a moment, the frenzied officials paused slightly.

They instinctively looked at the elegant woman with a face full of anger.

However, this pause lasted for less than a breath.

In the crowd, an official, his face bruised and swollen, suddenly scrambled to his feet and, with all his might, let out a roar:

"Kill the traitor first, then pay your respects to the Empress Dowager!"

boom!

This sound was like pouring a ladle of hot oil into a boiling pot!

Yes!

So what if she's the Empress Dowager?

Her most relied-upon son and grandson are both "dead"!

Her most trusted family is about to be uprooted!

She's just an empty shell now!

"beat!"

"Kill that old dog Wang Wen!"

"Chen Xun, don't run!"

The brawl, which had just stopped, erupted again in an even more ferocious manner!

Some officials, blinded by rage, even kicked the eunuchs who tried to stop them to the ground!

"..."

Empress Dowager Sun stood there, as if struck by lightning.

She looked at the group of crazed civil officials who completely ignored her presence.

Looking at the Grand Secretary Chen Xun, who was being overwhelmed by the crowd, punched and kicked, and screaming in agony.

Looking at Wang Wen, who was being held down on the ground by several people, his official hat crushed to pieces.

Looking at Yu Qian, isolated in the eye of the storm, his face covered in blood and filled with despair.

She felt as if all the strength in her body had been drained away in an instant.

Everything she relied on, the world she knew, was collapsing before her eyes in the most absurd and cruel way.

But she was powerless to do anything about it.
