Daming: After self-explosive time travel, Lao Zhu's mentality collapsed

Zhu Di sneered, his tone gloomy: "Don't act pitiful in front of me! Do you think you can get away with it like this?"

"Come here, torture me! Force this traitor to confess!"

Liu Jin was horrified when he heard this, and he rolled over and cried, "Your Majesty! I am truly wronged! Please spare my life!"

However, a eunuch had already stepped forward and dragged him away without saying a word. No matter how he struggled and cried, it was of no use.

Chu Ze watched coldly from the side, but his heart was surging.

I didn't expect that the remnants of Zhu Biao were so rampant that they dared to spy on me blatantly. They deserve to be killed!
It seems that the enemies in the court are far more difficult to deal with than imagined.

Zhu Di seemed to see through his thoughts and sighed, "My dear, it seems that this matter is not that simple. Although Zhu Biao is dead, the remnants of his followers are still stirring up trouble in the court. It is really worrying."

Chu Ze bowed and said, "Your Majesty is right. I, your humble servant, also feel that the court is sinister. This evil trend must be eradicated before we can be happy."

Zhu Di nodded, and suddenly changed the subject: "Speaking of which, do you have any good ideas? How can we get rid of these treacherous villains?"

Chu Ze heard this, his eyes sparkled: "I do have a plan, but I don't know if I should tell you or not."

"My dear, if you have any opinions, please feel free to speak up."

Chu Ze pulled out a stack of memorials from his bosom and presented them respectfully: "Your Majesty, I spent a long time thinking about it last night and drafted a strategy for rectifying the government. I hope you will make your decision."

Zhu Di took the memorial and read it carefully. The more he read, the more his brows relaxed and his face showed joy.

"Good! Good! This is a brilliant plan! My dear minister, you have foresight and thought so thoroughly! If you can implement it, you will be able to eliminate corrupt officials and uphold justice!"

Chu Ze said modestly: "Your Majesty, thank you for your praise. This is just my humble opinion. It will require the collective wisdom of all the ministers to make it perfect."

Zhu Di waved his hands and laughed heartily: "Why are you being so modest? This memorial is full of pearls and hits the nail on the head. I have already made the final decision!"

He immediately wrote a review of Chu Ze's memorial with great fanfare, and said in high spirits: "As you said, I will issue an order to have the six ministries hold a joint trial and implement it immediately! We must catch all the corrupt officials in the court in one fell swoop!"

"Your humble servant will obey the imperial order!"

Chu Ze was overjoyed and immediately knelt down to express his gratitude.

With the emperor's approval, this purge drama is about to begin!

The next morning, when the first ray of sunlight fell on the capital, the entire palace was in a frenzy.

The six ministers of state gathered in the court, all of them looked solemn, as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

They first reviewed the memorials from the emperor and Chu Ze together, and then started a heated argument.

"This is a great plan! But I'm afraid it's difficult to implement." "That is, the scope of the purge is so wide, who will be in charge of the overall situation?" "Also, how to identify the treacherous and treacherous? How to ensure that good people are not wrongly accused?"

Voices of doubt arise one after another, and opinions are varied.

Chu Ze listened quietly, and when he saw that the time was right, he stepped forward and looked around at the ministers.

"You are right, my dear ministers. Eliminating corrupt officials is a tough battle. How can it be won easily?"

"However, this is a matter concerning the reputation of the imperial court and the well-being of the people. We cannot afford to retreat! If we hesitate to move forward because we are afraid of offending the powerful, wouldn't that be a shame to our mission as an official?"

His voice was loud and clear, and every word was sonorous: "I, your humble servant, would like to take the lead in volunteering to preside over the purge! Any corrupt officials who dare to abuse their power and abuse the law and exploit the people must be eradicated and will not be tolerated!"

"As for how to identify them, please ask the six ministries and the Censorate to work together, be vigilant, and enforce the law impartially. All those found to be corrupt will be severely punished and will not be tolerated!"

Chu Ze's words were so powerful that all the ministers were moved when they heard them.

"General, you are right! Eradicating corruption and promoting integrity is the most important thing for the country!" "That's right! With the general in charge of this matter, we feel much more at ease." "The general is loyal to the country and has devoted himself to the country. He is truly a pillar of the Ming Dynasty! We are willing to serve you and help you with all our strength!"

At once, words of praise came flooding in. Chu Ze was relieved and was about to order his ministers to take action, when he saw a group of people suddenly rushing in from outside the door, all of them filled with indignation and tears.

"It's unfair! My son was beaten to death by a corrupt official!" "My family property was confiscated by corrupt officials, and my whole family is starving!" "Who will stand up for us? Where is justice?"

Their accusations were so mournful and tragic that the ministers looked at each other in bewilderment, not knowing what to do.

Seeing this, Chu Ze frowned and walked down the stairs with big strides.

"My fellow countrymen, please don't panic! The court knows all the suffering and crimes you have endured."

He said in a deep voice, "The Emperor has issued an order to rectify the administration and eliminate corrupt officials. From now on, there will be no more tyrants and bullies who will harm the people!"

When the people heard this, they were stunned at first, then their eyes filled with tears and they cheered in unison.

"Thank you, Your Highness! You are truly our savior!" "With Your Highness on our side, we have nothing to fear!" "Your Highness, may you live forever! The Ming Dynasty will be forever secure!"

For a moment, cheers like thunder and waves resounded through the sky.

Chu Ze was moved by this enthusiasm and trust, and secretly vowed to live up to everyone's expectations and bring peace and prosperity to the people!
At this moment, a cold voice sounded in his ears.

"Just you? Do you think you can clean up the filth in the court?"

Following the sound, it turned out to be Liu Jin with a gloomy face! He had escaped from the prison at some point!

"I am so embarrassed that I am almost waking up from my dreams! Just because you are a mere time traveler, do you really think you are omnipotent? Little do you know that this is just a gamble that you will never win!"

Liu Jin laughed strangely, with a vicious look in his eyes, and moved straight towards Chu Ze.

The ministers and common people around him were frightened by his aura and tried to avoid him, fearing that they could not escape him.

The atmosphere was tense and everyone held their breath, not knowing what would happen next.

However, Chu Ze smiled calmly and remained calm.

He stood with his hands behind his back, looking at Liu Jin calmly, as if he was looking at a clown.

"Liu Jin, you think too highly of yourself. How dare you act so presumptuous in front of me?"

"If it weren't for the emperor's sake, I would have killed you with my sword long ago to prevent future troubles!"

Although Chu Ze's words were calm, they carried a terrifying majesty.

He walked forward slowly, his eyes intimidating and his voice sonorous.

"Do you think I'm really just an unarmed time traveler? You're too naive!"

"Let me tell you, I've experienced many ups and downs and hardships in my life. From an unknown commoner, I grew up step by step to become a great general and a great commander of the army. How can a pampered dandy like you imagine the hard work and effort involved?"

"Now I swear to eliminate corrupt officials and uphold justice, and I will definitely do what I say! Even if I die, I will not hesitate!"

Chu Ze's words were powerful and touched people's hearts.

The people and ministers were all moved, they burst into tears and cheered in unison.

"Your Majesty is mighty! The people of Ming are lucky to have you!"

"Your Majesty is so righteous that he will surely uphold justice and create another prosperous and peaceful era!"

However, Liu Jin sneered and looked disdainful. (End of this chapter)
