Chapter 456: The Great Purge 2 Li Mi and the others gasped.
This time, the emperor dealt with it too ruthlessly, and he wanted to kill so many people, leaving no one behind.
In this way, at least the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace in the Daming Palace will be purged, involving thousands of palace maids and eunuchs, causing strong turmoil in the palace.
What is the meaning of exile for 3,000 miles to the southwest barbarians, that is a bitter cold land that will not pull out a hair, once exiled to this kind of place, it is actually more painful to live than to die.
There are very few Han people in the southwest, most of them are barbarians, and when they reach that kind of place, most of their lives are gone.
Some people don't even make it and die halfway through.
However, the emperor was vindictive, and at this time, if anyone dared to raise objections, it would inevitably trigger a backlash from the emperor.
Li Yu didn't care.
On the other hand, if Li Yu is allowed to deal with it, I am afraid that he can only be more ruthless than the emperor.
In terms of Li Yu's strong personality, he will even update and clean all the eunuchs and palace maids in the entire Daming Palace, and will not leave any suspicious hidden dangers around him.
In fact, this is also very easy to do.
Expelled all the eunuchs and maids from the palace, and then replaced them with a new batch of people.
In these days, three-legged dogs are hard to find, but two-legged people are everywhere.
There are many poor men and women who want to enter the palace to serve the emperor and try to ascend to the sky in one step.
Kong Sheng promised in a low voice: "The minister obeys the order" Kong Sheng turned around and was about to walk out of the main hall, but he heard the emperor's gloomy voice behind him: "Kong Sheng, after killing the traitor, hang his head on the Chengtian Gate for me, in order to set an example for You Zhu Huiguang, pass on my message, all the eunuchs and palace maids and miscellaneous servants in the Inner Servant Province, all find out their origins, and those who are not innocent will be expelled from the palace, if there are half more suspicious people in the palace, I will not spare you."
Zhu Huiguang was overjoyed, and said respectfully: "The slave obeys the order" At this time, the emperor handed over the important task of purging the palace to him, which can only mean that the throne of the head of the eunuchs in the inner province cannot run.
In fact, the emperor has no one to use now, no one can be trusted, relatively speaking, Zhu Huiguang was born in Empress Zhang's Anning Palace, and the emperor will choose to trust Zhu Huiguang when he has no choice.
Kong Sheng sighed lightly in his heart.
He knew that the emperor hated Yu Chaoen to the bone, otherwise, the emperor would not want to hang Yu Chaoen's head on the Chengtian Gate to show the public.
You must know that the eunuch leaders in the palace gathered to rebel, which was detrimental to the face of the royal family and the emperor, but Li Heng no longer shied away from this, which can only show that the hatred in his heart has risen to the peak.
Li Yu hesitated for a moment, and suddenly stepped forward and said: "Father, the sons and daughters think that Yu Chaoen and others rebelled and caused trouble in the inner palace, after all, it is a matter of the palace and the face of the father.
Although Yu Chaoen's crime is unforgivable, if the head of this thief is publicly displayed, I am afraid that it will shake the entire Chang'an City and cause turmoil in the government and the opposition, which seems to be a little inappropriate. ” Li Heng snorted coldly: "There is nothing wrong with it, and I am not afraid of being embarrassed."
I'm not afraid of being embarrassed, what are you afraid of, the prince?"
Li Heng replied so angrily that Li Yu frowned when he heard it, but he could only say yes again and again.
"These traitors dare to kill the king and force the palace, it is really a heinous crime, if you don't kill a hundred people, the eunuchs in the palace will follow suit, and I will not be able to sleep in the palace in the future.
The prince doesn't have to worry too much, the matter of the Xuanzheng Palace involves the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, I am afraid that the rumors have already spread throughout the city, and there is nothing to hide."
"Kong Sheng, the forbidden army is ordered to blockade the whole city, and no one is allowed to leave the city without my will.
Including the ministers of civil and military affairs and the relatives of the clan, whoever dares to resist my will will will be killed."
Emperor Huo Ran got up, murderous.
Kong Sheng continued to sigh in his heart: The emperor actually wanted to block the whole city, it seems that he is unwilling to clean the inner palace, and he will take this opportunity to clean up and rectify the civil and military forces and clan magnates of the Manchu Dynasty.
But Kong Sheng did not hesitate, and still agreed.
Li Heng was silent for a moment, and then said resolutely: "Kong Sheng, I have given you the right to cut first and then play, hold the sword of Shang Fang, and thoroughly investigate this case."
No matter who is involved, whether it is a minister or a clan, as long as they are involved, they will be punished according to the law, and they will not be tolerated. ” Kong Sheng nodded with a fixed expression: "The minister obeys the order" The emperor's judgment was not wrong.
Although the rebels were Yu Chaoen and a group of eunuchs, behind the scenes, who said that there were no courtiers in it Li Yu, Li Mi and the others looked at each other and quietly glanced at each other.
Li Yu knew that he could no longer speak, and Fang Cai's remarks had already aroused the emperor's strong dissatisfaction.
However, the blockade of the whole city is a matter of great importance, which is easy to cause turmoil in the government and the opposition and shake the foundation of the Li Tang Dynasty.
Li Mi hesitated for a moment, but still stepped forward and bowed: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks" Before Li Mi's words could be spoken, he was stopped by the emperor impatiently waving his hand: "Li Mi, you don't have to say it, I know what you have to say."
I also know what I'm going to do now.
Do you think that just because Yu Chaoen is an eunuch in the inner palace, he dares to plot to usurp the throne, even if he has the courage, he has no means to say that there is no one behind this thief to give advice, I will never believe it. ” "Moreover, Yu Chaoen, a thief, has a lot of dealings with some people in the court, thinking that I am really mediocre and old, and I can't do it this time, I must take out these people who are ready to move behind the scenes, eat the king's money but ignore the king's grace in vain, and kill them one by one, and never tolerate and raise adultery."
The emperor got up and walked down the Danqi, raised his hand and pointed at Li Mi, the indifference in his eyes overflowing.
Li Mi took a deep breath, knowing that the emperor had already made up his mind under his anger, and any opposition would face a stormy blow from the emperor, he secretly shook his head and went silently: "The minister obeys the order" Du Hongjian and Li Yu didn't dare to talk anymore.
A cadre of people was about to withdraw, but they heard the emperor say gloomily: "There is another matter, you need to solve problems for me." ” "Yu Chaoen conspired against En, and wanted to help the emperor to restore the throne and force me to abdicate.
It can be seen that this time the Emperor Taishang and Yu Chaoen and his gang at least have a tacit understanding.
In the Xuanzheng Palace, Emperor Taishang and Yu Chaoen joined forces to force me to abdicate, which I saw with my own eyes, heard with my own ears, and witnessed by all my ministers in person.
Li Heng slowly sat back again: "All this, please wait and talk about how I should get along with the Emperor Taishang in the future."

Li Heng closed his eyes and forcibly concealed a trace of murderous aura.
The old emperor sang and harmonized with Yu Chaoen and his gang in the Xuanzheng Palace, forcing Li Heng to abdicate step by step, where to care about the slightest father-son affection Since the old emperor has left family affection behind, the resentment in Li Heng's heart gradually turned into hatred.
Therefore, Li Heng decided that he could not continue to sit idly by and watch the old emperor become a threat to his throne.
In the matter of the Xuanzheng Palace, if there is a next time, it is difficult for anyone to guarantee that Li Heng's luck will continue to guarantee that Ji Tailai will be killed.
This time I got out of trouble, in fact, it was very lucky.
If it weren't for Kong Sheng's decisive move, if it weren't for the existence of such and such accidental factors, if it weren't for the chaos of command within the Yu Chaoen group, if it wasn't for the emperor's death, it would be a matter of every minute and every second.
Li Mi and Du Hong glanced at each other quickly, and they both saw a touch of shock in each other's eyes.
The emperor actually wanted to attack the emperor, and this time, it really provoked the emperor.
Thinking about the old emperor too, how can he pin his hopes for restoration on a group of unreliable eunuchs This is enough to show that the old emperor's mind to restore the throne has not been reduced for a day.
Everyone rubbed their hands in embarrassment, but no one dared to speak, and the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became very oppressive and dull.
The grievances and grievances of the two generations of emperors of father and son are not something that these courtiers can say and make various evaluations.
What is certain is that the old emperor is of course immortal in the heart of reinstatement, I am afraid that this time Yu Chaoen's rebellion is inseparable from the old emperor's later cooperation, but after all, he is the previous emperor, the emperor's father, even if the old emperor openly clamored to be reinstated as the emperor, Li Heng categorically could not kill the old emperor with a holy decree.
Killing one's father with a son is against human ethics, and it will make Li Heng become a senseless and faint king, leaving behind infamy through the ages.
Moreover, Li Heng has always shown the outside world the image of a filial son.
Li Heng has a grudge against the emperor, but at least on the surface, he has always maintained the filial piety that a son of man should have.
Otherwise, if it was simply to ensure that his throne was safe, Li Heng should not have let the old emperor return to Chang'an.
If it was according to Li Yu's private suggestion, the emperor should let the old emperor die in Shuzhong.
There are no two heavens and no two people, and the return of the old emperor to the dynasty itself is an invisible potential threat.
But Li Heng still couldn't be ruthless after all.
Therefore, at the instigation of a group of old ministers who were loyal to the old emperor, Li Heng finally agreed to let the old emperor return to the court.
From the first day the old emperor stepped into Chang'an City, the emperor regretted it.
But in this world, there is no regret medicine sold at all.
The emperor and the old emperor themselves are natural contradictions and irreconcilable, because the imperial throne and imperial power are unique.
Even if there is no eunuch and eunuch like Yu Chaoen who take risks, there will be some right and wrong between the emperor and the old emperor sooner or later.
It's almost unavoidable.
Therefore, in the hearts of the ministers, these things between Li Heng and Li Longji's father and son are themselves a confused account, and it is difficult for anyone to sort them out.
The emperor looked at Li Yu.
Li Yu immediately lowered his head, pretending not to see the emperor's eyes.
The emperor wants to move the old emperor, which is in Li Yu's arms, but he is a junior after all, no matter what, he can't say the words "deal with the old emperor" from the mouth of him, the emperor's eldest grandson, because this will damage Li Yu's virtue.
He has not yet become an emperor, and once his virtue is lost, sooner or later it will induce trouble.
The emperor looked at Li Mi and Du Hongjian again.
The two of them also subconsciously turned their heads away, not daring to meet the emperor's eyes.
This kind of thing is about the old emperor, how dare they, as subordinates, speak up oshow7 t1706231537:
