Time Travel: After Seizing the Throne, I Lead the Ming Dynasty to Take Off

Chapter 704

"I'll keep this memorial for now. Keep all the evidence you've found safe. Tell your men to shut up and not leak any information to anyone irrelevant to the matter."

Zhu Yunhuan said as he spoke.

He stood up, took the memorial in his hand and walked to the bookshelf behind him and put it away.

This is ready-made evidence of guilt and also a ready-made handle.

Although many of the things he did this year seemed willful, naughty and absurd to the court and the public, these things, whether it was the Media Department, the Alchemy Department, the Industrial Department, or the uprooting of Zhu's vegetable garden, even if there were no many plans of Zhu Yunhuan behind them, ultimately hurt either the court, the people, or the Zhu Dynasty.

None of this was blamed on the ministers.

As the saying goes, you don’t know the pain until the slap lands on your face.

As long as their core interests were not touched, they would certainly write letters, make suggestions, and make noises, but as long as Zhu Yunhuan used his power as an emperor to suppress them, they would just stop cursing.

But what needs to be done next.

Many of them will involve aristocratic families, nobles, high-ranking officials, gentry... and countless other people who have a certain influence in the court and local areas. If you slap them in the face, they will fight you to the death.

But now Zhu Yunhuan has dug such a hole.

When the time comes, I'll throw the evidence in front of these people. Will you do the dirty work of betraying your class? No? I'll deal with you fairly and impartially, and even the chain of evidence will be complete. No one will be able to redress your injustice.

It really comes to the point where the nine clans are bound together and life is at stake.

How can I care about anything else?

It will naturally be much easier to implement things step by step in the future.

While Zhu Yunhuan was speaking, Zhao Feng's eyes were stern, and murderous intent was revealed on his face. He was murderous and cruel, and it seemed that he was just waiting to go out and kill someone.

As soon as Zhu Yunhuan finished speaking, Zhao Feng immediately clasped his hands together and said, "Yes! I will definitely... Hmm?"

He was halfway through his words when he realized that there were so many officials in Yingtian Prefecture, many of whom were implicated in the scandal, yet they had only singled out the most egregious offenders for punishment? Those who had accepted generous gifts... amounting to over sixty taels, who knew how many times over, were still safe and sound?

Everything is fine now. Zhao Feng has no idea what is going on in Zhu Yunhuan's mind, so of course he can't understand what he means.

When you react.

Zhao Feng's brain suddenly froze...

Is this still my Majesty who has a lot of bad things going on in his stomach???

"Is there any problem?" Zhu Yunheng had already put the memorial away, turned around again, and slowly returned to sit on the chair behind the dragon desk.

Zhao Feng licked his lips, his mouth dry. He said, bewildered, "No... no problem. I am a sword. Wherever your majesty points, I will strike. Your majesty commands, and I shall obey."

He couldn't be more clear about his own positioning.

Just chop off the brain and hit wherever you point!

"Go ahead." Zhu Yunhuan picked up the teacup beside him and took a sip slowly.

"I'll take my leave." Zhao Feng retreated towards the vermilion lacquered gate and then turned to leave.

Zhao Feng had just left the Qianqing Palace and was about to close the door when he heard the eunuch guarding the door say softly, "Master Zhao, wait a minute. I'm just about to go in and tell His Majesty."

"Please." Zhao Feng replied indifferently, then raised his head and saw a bright crimson official robe.

The person who came was Qin Kui, the Minister of Works who was now very popular in the court.

A while ago, he took the lead in the production of cheap fabrics, which not only earned him praise from His Majesty himself, but was also written about in newspaper articles, and gained him a good reputation among the people. Crucially, he also knew how to read people's expressions, which earned him the Majesty's favor and trust.
