The Holy Emperor of Ming

Chapter 264: Fighting All Over Ming Dynasty
Guo Bujing and others naturally had no objections and even breathed a sigh of relief. This was already a very good result.

If Lang Fanyun and Dugu Jiansheng were not stubborn and not completely hostile to the Ming court, they would not refuse.

Of course, not necessarily.

If someone in the Nujiao Gang or Wushuang City that they care about commits a capital crime, then that would be a troublesome problem.

Perhaps it is possible that they will become irreconcilable with the imperial court.

They wanted to negotiate in order to reduce the possibility of conflict and avoid forcing these two powerful men, whose crimes did not constitute capital crimes, to completely oppose the imperial court.

After talking about this matter, Guo Bujing continued to speak, talking about the strong people who needed to be mobilized so far.

Zhu Houzhao thought about it and agreed to all of them.

This agreement means that the plan has been approved and will officially begin to be implemented.

Afterwards, Zhu Ye, Cao Youxiang and others came over, and Guo Bujing and others discussed with them.

Zhu Houzhao had already left.

Other matters can be left to the factory guards, but there are some things that he needs to do personally.

For example, he wrote letters to invite Zhang Sanfeng and Wuji, told the girls to wait a few days and write back to their parents' homes, and also informed Wang Shouren and others.

Without wasting any time, this huge plan started directly.

After returning to the palace, Zhu Houzhao told the girls to wait a few days to write the letter.

Zhu Houzhao immediately started writing letters, and with rare patience, he wrote three letters by hand.

The next morning, the three letters quickly flew to three places.

Unbeknownst to most people in the Ming Dynasty, the biggest storm involving the martial arts world in a hundred years began.

Early in the morning of September 11, Wuji was the first to receive the letter. After reading it, his eyes flickered with a hint of interest.

He smiled, and there was a little more anticipation in the depths of his eyes.

“Please report to your majesty that I can help you at any time.

Shaolin and the entire Buddhist community will support it."

September 11th afternoon.

When Wang Shouren received the letter, his face immediately darkened.

After pondering and deducing silently for a while, he looked at the map in front of him with serious eyes, his gaze slightly sharp.

"Pass the order. This commander-in-chief will lead a guard and enter Shu immediately."

On September 12, Zhang Sanfeng received the letter.

His face was solemn, and after a moment of hesitation he said, "Please report to your majesty, I am ready to take action at any time.

Wudang fully supports it.”

On September 14, Zhu Houzhao received the responses from the three people one after another.

He immediately gave orders to the factory guards to push the plan forward at full speed.

Guo Bujing and others were greatly shocked and no longer hesitated, and implemented the plan with all their strength.

A large number of Jinyiwei began to leave the capital, especially those masters in the innate realm. Except for a few, all of them left the capital for various places.

Orders were issued one after another, and the Jinyiwei throughout the Ming Dynasty began to move like a giant net covering every corner of the Ming Dynasty.

Countless information converges upward, and countless plans begin to take shape.

On September 16, Zhu Houzhao told the girls that they could write letters back to their parents' home.

The letters that Qin Mengyao and other girls had written long ago were sent to various places through the Jinyiwei channels.

The Jinyiwei also deliberately controlled the speed, trying to ensure that the letters arrived at their destination at about the same time.

On September 18th, such a big commotion by the factory guards, as well as the movements by the martial arts departments in various places, naturally alerted the sensitive minds of many people, and they began to investigate.

They have even guessed whether the target is brothels, casinos, and pimping houses.

After all, the news that all three places in the capital had been sealed off had spread.

On September 21, Zhu Houzhao officially issued an edict, ordering the imperial guards to seal off and investigate all brothels, gambling houses, and pawnshops in the Ming Dynasty, and to thoroughly investigate all illegal and criminal activities and oppression of the people. Local government offices and stationed troops all cooperated.

The decree shocked the capital.

"I knew that His Majesty would not stop here and only investigate these three places in the capital."

"Thoroughly investigate these three places in all places of Daming! Haha, you are worthy of being His Majesty. Who else would dare to do this?"

"Yes, no one knows that these three places are full of filth, but who dares to interfere? Only Your Majesty dares to do so."

"This matter will not be simple. There are too many things involved in these three places."

"Oh, so what if it's not simple? Who can disobey His Majesty?"

·····
What the people in the capital did not know was that this decree seemed to be able to jump through space and arrived at the capital and thirteen provinces of the Ming Dynasty.

Even the factory guards in the farthest Guangdong Province took out this decree on September 21st and took action together with other places.

In every city of the Ming Dynasty, there were Jinyiwei leading the way, leading detectives and soldiers to seal off local brothels, gambling houses, and pawnshops.

North Zhili.

"All brothels, gambling houses, and pimping houses must be arrested, not a single one can be spared."

"No matter who is behind you, you have been banned today. Anyone who resists is considered a rebel."

····
Jinling.

"Quick, quick, quick, seal off all the brothels and all the boats on the Qinhuai River. Don't let any of them go. Seal them all."

"Nobles? No matter who you are behind, take them all down. Anyone who dares to stop us will be killed."

····
Zhejiang.

"Shangguan family? I don't care what Shangguan family you are. According to the emperor's decree, do you want to rebel?"

"You dare to resist? Beat them. If you are stubborn, kill them." "Humph, a casino owner dares to be so arrogant? Kill him."

····
Yu land.

"Money Gang? I don't care about the Money Gang. This is an imperial decree. Charge in and capture them all."

"How dare you! What do you want to do? This is Uncle Zhang's place, and Uncle Zhang's master is a Shaolin monk."

····
On that day, tens of thousands of Jinyiwei, with more than 200,000 soldiers and constables, launched a blockade of thousands of places.

The scale of the action was so great that it instantly shook the entire Ming Dynasty.

Officials, martial artists, gentry, common people, all classes, were attracted to the show.

"What's going on? Why are you closing down Qunfangyuan?"

"Big news, not only the Qunfangyuan, but all the brothels, casinos, and pawnshops in the entire *** have been closed down."

"Who is so powerful? How dare they seal everything off! Even the prefect can't stand the pressure."

"Great news! I heard it was an imperial decree that all brothels in the Ming Dynasty... were closed down!"

"Everywhere is closed! As expected of His Majesty, only His Majesty dares to do this?"

"I heard that it was His Majesty who discovered that these three places in the capital were full of filth and corruption, so he ordered the Imperial Household Department to thoroughly investigate all three places in the country."

····
Countless people in the Ming Dynasty were talking about these three places. These three places involved people from all walks of life in the Ming Dynasty, and few people would not be interested.

Some people are excited and expectant, some are watching the fun, some are disappointed, some are calm and composed, and some are angry and panicked.

The last ones are naturally the people who violated the law in the three places and those behind the scenes.

"What should we do? I heard that it was an imperial decree that all brothels in Ming Dynasty... were closed down. We will not be implicated, will we?"

"What are you worried about? You also said that all places in Daming have been closed down. Do you know how many people are implicated?

Out of ten brothels... nine and a half have problems. With so many people around, even the Emperor Shengwu would not dare to act rashly.

The factory guards can only arrest some people who are on stage at most. Just arrest them and replace them with someone else after a while."

"That's right. Even if there is a problem, it was done by the people in front of us. What does it have to do with us?"

"I hope so. Hey, some damn family has offended the emperor and made him target us."

···
"Brother, what should we do? Once what we did is discovered, I'm afraid the Royal Guards will not let us go."

"Don't worry, pack up first and see what's going on. If something goes wrong, we'll run away immediately."

"it is good."

···
"What? My Zunxinmen's casino has also been closed! The factory guards are too rampant!"

"Master, what should we do?"

"Hmph, let's take a look first. I want to see what the factory guards are going to do."

···
On September 21st, a unified blockade was implemented in three places across the country. On that day, except for some people from small forces who felt something was wrong and wanted to escape, the factory guards did not arrest more people, as if they were still under investigation.

The factory guards were indeed conducting an investigation, trying to dig out more information that they did not have.

On the same day, Yu Jian Villa, Ci Hang Jing Zhai, Huashan Sect, and Tianshan Sect received letters from several women.

Its senior management engaged in quite intense discussions and debates, some of which produced results while others did not.

On September 22, more people felt something was wrong. They used many methods to investigate the situation, but without much success.

Instinctively, some people felt that a storm was about to come.

Some of the people behind the scenes started to escape.

As expected, they were all caught by the factory guards who had been keeping an eye on them.

These people are still from small forces. After all, people from medium and large forces will not escape easily.

On September 23rd, just when those medium and large forces were beginning to feel uneasy.

The factory guards moved again.

This time, it was like thunder sweeping the cave.

There are more than 2,000 small town gangs, more than 1,000 gentry and landlords, and some officials.

Twenty-six medium-sized town gangs and medium-sized family forces with innate realm.

They were attacked by more than 30,000 Jinyiwei, more than 3,000 people from the East Factory, led by masters of the Martial Arts Hall, troops, and constables.

"Changle Gang, how dare you! How dare you resist? Kill them!"

"Giant Whale Gang, do you want to resist?"

"The Lin family, what a Lin family, they are so dirty."

"Jin Shen Temple, huh, a Buddhist temple actually controls six brothels, they all deserve to die."

"You are Tianshui Jian. You actually became a lackey of the imperial court!"

"Tie Zhongtang! Did the Daqimen also surrender to the imperial court?"

····
On the court side, there were ninety-four innate masters from the factory guards, the martial arts hall, and some who came out of the palace, leading hundreds of thousands of people to fight with the rebels.

In some places, traces of great masters have also appeared.

But this fighting, which took place in almost every part of the Ming Dynasty, is not the point.

The real focus is the eight large town gangs that were targeted from the beginning.

It's still this day.

The ebb and flow of the Dongting Lake.

An ugly, yellow-faced man looked in shock at the Taoist who appeared before him.
