A carriage painted in black painted red carriage drove across the long street, heading north along Bianliang Cross Street, passing through numerous access controls, and coming to a dark black gate.

Thirty or fifty spies of Jinyu Guard were waiting outside the door early in the morning. Seeing the carriage and horses coming, they quickly pushed open the door.

The closed door made a long "squeak" sound, slowly opening, revealing a narrow and deep alley inside.

The alleys are dark and wet, with low and simple houses on both sides, even as low as half buried in the soil.

The houses and alleys are made of bluestone. Over time, the surface is covered with moss. The semi-decaying eaves lean against each other, almost covering the sky.

Once the gate was closed, the entire narrow alley was shrouded in the shadows, and even at noon, there was no sun.

This is the Zhaozhu of Jinyuwei, which made countless people feel disgusted. Many of the former powerful people of the Great Qi died here.

There is a large open space outside Zhaozhu. At this time, the bed was arranged in advance and brocade mats were laid. Two incense furnaces were placed next to it to keep warm and remove filth.

The carriage drove directly to the open space. Chen Shou, who got out of the carriage, walked to the seat, lifted up his robe, and sat down with his clothes.

Four guards stood behind him by catching their swords and nodded to the spies of the Jinyu Guard. After one of them stood still, he sang: "Take a prisoner."

The dark and low house sounded "hurrying" iron chains, and then a prisoner was dragged in.

Most of these prisoners wore heavy shackles and disheveled hair, and it was difficult to take every step.

In the past, there were no officials in prison, but they would not have been tortured so badly, because the arrest of officials involved in the struggles of the upper class and they would not know when they would be restored.

The conditions in the official prisons of Bianliang, the capital of Daqi, are much better than those of ordinary prisons, and the prison guards in the official prison are polite to the criminals. This is an experience passed down since ancient times. Who knows which court officials said they wanted to beheaded today but were restored to their posts tomorrow? You offended them very much. After they were released from prison, they could strangle you to death like an ant with just one word.

Therefore, the prison guards in the official prison are not only very polite to the prisoners, but they still respectfully call them masters in prison. As long as you have money and enjoy what you want, the prison guards will run errands for you when they get the money.

Some of the prisoners present also had been in the official prison, and they were like fairylands compared to now.

In this dark and wet prison, there was no trace of sunshine. After these prisoners were driven out, they did not dare to open their eyes.

When Chen Shou looked at them, it was difficult to identify which colleague he had been. He had not passed by in the hall much. Instead, these former officials quickly recognized Chen Shou.

For a moment, all kinds of dirty words emerged one after another. Some people tried their best to scold Chen Shou for being so bloody.

More people were full of expectations, hoping that Chen Shou would take them out and give them a chance to re-take the team.

This is a team that has been taking sides every time, and it is perfectly avoiding Chen Shou's group of officials. Even after Chen Shou seized power, the deadly hard-core who still conspired to plot against him, stayed in Zhao Prison for several months, but most of them lost their former integrity.

A spy saw that Chen Shou looked strange and lowered his head and whispered: "These officials, in the comfortable study, imagined their strong integrity at the beauty who was attending the Hongxiu. After entering our Zhao Prison, they will be corrected in one day."

Chen Shou waved his hand and signaled him not to humiliate these people anymore. He shouted: "Everyone, when the country is employed, I will give you another chance. If anyone is willing to abandon the darkness and turn to the light, stand on the left."

With a huh, pulling the chains and heavy shackles, a group of officials walked and crawled to the left.

There were only seven or eight people on the spot. They stared at the copper bell-like eyes, held the wooden shackles with both hands, pulled the iron shackles with a clanging sound, and were still shouting loudly.

Chen Shou waved his hand and several guards took them down. At this time, he could not tolerate any slight slutiness. His position was not very solid. If he was not careful, he might be turned over.

Chen Shou smiled and said, "Since you all have regretted it, please remove the shackles."

These officials suddenly got rid of the shackles, feeling like they were coming back to life, and flattered Chen Shou.

Chen Shou laughed and said, "I'll give you another half an hour to consider. Now when hiring people, as long as you are willing to draw a clear line with the treacherous Wei Yunse and completely eliminate his cancer, you will go and talk to the spies here, and I'll be waiting for you in the Ministry of Personnel."

After saying that, Chen Shou got up and left. It was a bit depressing and uncomfortable.

After leaving Zhao Prison and coming to the Ministry of Personnel, the officials here are also busy.

When Chen Shou returned from the summer palace, Li Lingfeng gave him another trick, asking Chen Shou to transfer the arrested officials to various vassal states as officials.

When they left, they took the appointment of the court, which was justified. They were qualified and prestigious senior officials, and going out to be a prefecture was a decentralized person who was demoted to four or five levels in a row.

Can they calm down then? They will definitely fight for power and profit, and there are complex forces behind each person. After they take office, they will definitely seek welfare for the forces behind them, and this will lead to conflicts.

In this way, even if the recession in the area that is not disturbed, at least it will cause rifts and even hatred among various forces.

Chen Shou was in charge of the two prefectures of Daming in Kaifeng, just like in the heart of the Daqi clan, for fear that the strong men from all over the country would unite. Like the eighteen princes, he rushed into Kaifeng prefecture in a mighty way.

These officials in the capital are all good officials, and there is no fuel-efficient lamp. It is a waste of food in Bianliang. It is better to let them continue to stir up the wind and rain, shine and heat, and harm the ambitious princes.

Let them have internal strife first, consume their energy, and develop by themselves is the king.

To achieve this goal, the most important thing is to check their background and then send them to the right places to be officials. If the arranged place is appropriate, they can borrow the power of the clan or disciples, that would be really good.

For this matter, the people from the Ministry of Personnel have been busy for several days. Chen Shou sat in the lobby for a while, and soon the criminals couldn't wait to come to the Ministry of Personnel.

The Jinyu Guard's carriage brought them here. The officials who were tortured to the point of being unpopular stepped onto the blue bricks in the yamen and immediately regained their vitality.

Power is a good medicine to cure all diseases.

"I have met the Zhongyong Hou." An old official stepped forward and said with a flattering smile.

Zhang He lay in Chen Shou's ear and whispered: "This is Zhao Xiangcheng, the former Minister of Rites."

Chen Shou was startled and could not see Zhao Xiangcheng's appearance at all. He smiled and said, "Sir Zhao, please come and bring a chair for Lord Zhao."

"Don't dare, don't dare..." Zhao Xiangcheng said while waved his hand.

Chen Shou asked with a smile: "Old Zhao is old. If I remember correctly, you are from Yangzhou, aren't you?"

"Oh, Zhongyong Hou actually knew that it was a slaughter."

"Haha, the fallen leaves return to their roots, and the fox dies, and the hometown is hard to leave. Since Mr. Zhao is from Yangzhou, it is better to go to Gaoyou and become a prefect. What do you think?"

Gaoyou is next to Yangzhou City. Zhao Xiangcheng didn't expect that there would be a chance to go back, and she was so moved that she burst into tears.

"I will never forget the great kindness of the loyal and brave Marquis until my death."

I'm afraid I will never forget this revenge until my death. Chen Shou did not point it out, and the chuckle on his face was a bit fake.
