  Chapter 393 Liquidation

  When Liu Guan saw Zhu Di, he bowed his head and howled, "If His Majesty hadn't come in person, I would almost die."

   After finishing speaking, weeping loudly.

  He cried so sincerely that Zhang Anshi almost thought he was about to twitch.

  Seeing Zhu Di's indifferent face.

Liu Guan didn't feel embarrassed: "I was in Jiangxi, and I noticed the strangeness of these traitors, so I hurried to report. Who knows, I was noticed by them, and I was detained. I... I am really incompetent, I can't be a king. Dividing the worries will make the thieves take advantage of them instead. If His Majesty did not bring troops here, I would surely be torn to pieces by these rebellious officials and thieves."

  Zhu Di only said calmly: "Why didn't you notice it beforehand?"

   "These rebellious officials and thieves are acting treacherously. Although the minister...though they feel strange, they have no evidence, and they dare not impeach indiscriminately. It's just that when they realize it, it is too late."

  Zhu Di looked at him coldly: "I still remember that you praised Xu Qi and others a lot back then."

Liu Guan was so frightened that he wanted to take his breath away, and wailed: "Your Majesty, I have been wronged through the ages! I praised you at the beginning, but they were deceived by them. If your majesty doesn't believe it, you can investigate thoroughly. Your Majesty knows about my minister. This man...loves...loves..."

Liu Guan was a little squirming, but he still said: "I love to take advantage of some small things. This is something that everyone knows. But since I came here, I don't have the advantage of taking a penny from this place. On this point, I ask your majesty to order The factory guards will thoroughly investigate the minister, and if the minister gets half of the benefits, he will be sentenced to death."

Seeing that Zhu Di's face softened slightly, Liu Guan continued to make persistent efforts and said: "Your Majesty, the reason why I dare not take over is because the railway is related to the country, and I know the importance of it. The atmosphere here in Jiangxi is treacherous, and it seems to be shrouded in dark clouds."

"So I paid attention, and I was vigilant in my heart. I didn't dare to get too close to them, and I was wary of them. Sure enough, these damned rebellious officials and thieves dared to do such a thing. After I found out, I cursed Xu Qi, Unexpectedly, this Xu Qi is so mad that he dares to subdue his superiors and arrest the minister under house arrest."

As he said that, Liu Guan cried again: "The servants of the minister were injured by them for this reason, and one of them lost an arm. At that time, all thoughts were lost, so I decided to stick to my chastity and planned to set fire to myself at Xingyuan. He died, but he was unexpectedly rescued by the guards. I only hate that I have no strength to restrain a chicken, I have no way to survive, I can't ask for death, and I can't share the worries of Your Majesty. It is a crime of death."

   After finishing speaking, he kowtowed.

  Zhu Di glanced at him sideways, without showing any signs of expression, and only said: "Since you know the situation in Jiangxi, according to Qing, how should we deal with it?"

Only then did Liu Guan listen to the movement of kowtow, raised his head slightly and said: "This up and down is already rotten, I think, we must not tolerate it anymore! I don't know how many such rebellious officials and thieves are there. What we are arresting right now is just It's just a hundred and one. I think that in troubled times, heavy codes should be used. After your majesty ascends to the throne, although the world is peaceful, but this is also the time to severely punish, and you must not be lenient."

  Liu Guan looked very resentful, gnashing his teeth.

  Zhu Di narrowed his eyes: "Really? Besides, you have already heard about the Jiangyou Wu family, right?"

Liu Guandao: "The Wu family is the remnant Tartars. The Taizu and His Majesty Kuanren have not settled accounts with them, but have given them favors everywhere. Not only do they not want to repay their kindness, but they dare to do this. The world is full of anger! I think...the Wu family should be eradicated together, especially their disciples and old officials, and they need to be severely punished, so...the world can be peaceful."

  Zhu Di put his hands behind his back, and said in his mouth: "Since that's the case..."

As he said that, Zhu Di looked at Zhang Anshi and said, "Let Liu Guan, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, preside over the matter of eradicating the remnants of the Wu family. control."

  Zhang Anshi had no objection, he only said: "I obey the order."

  Liu Guan was very moved, crying tears, and said: "Your Majesty is so trustworthy... Your... Your body is broken, and it's hard to report what happened."

  Zhu Di waved his hand: "Back off."

  Liu Guan cried again, stood up slightly trembling, turned and left with tears in his eyes.

  At this time, Zhang Anshi slightly frowned and said: "Your Majesty, I see this Liu Guan..."

   Before Zhang Anshi finished speaking, Zhu Di said: "When the water is clear, there will be no fish. I have seen a lot of people like Xu Qi. Don't you think that even Liu Guan has a pretty face?"

   "Ah... this..." Zhang Anshi opened his mouth for a long time, but was speechless for a while.

Zhu Di said: "Liu Guan has a lot of experience and is a veteran of the three dynasties. It would be best to let him be responsible for ransacking the house and killing people here. Jin Yiwei is called to assist, but he doesn't have to ask him for everything. Whoever's head to kill is enough. If you don’t count, just report to him and ask him to sign and sign to issue the token. He will bear the name of the murder, and my money, as well as the matter of beheading, the factory guard will do it.”

  Zhang Anshi slightly opened his eyes and said: "Your Majesty is wise, I understand."

  Zhu Di said: "People like Liu Guan should be used in this way, this old thing..."

  Zhu Di snorted coldly, showing displeasure, and then said: "If not, I would have killed this person a hundred times already based on his behavior. But although this person has a lot of bad deeds, he has the same advantage."

  Zhang Anshi became curious, and said, "I don't know what the benefits are?"

  Zhu Di said lightly: "He can see the direction of the wind, but he is not the kind of stubborn and restless person."

  Zhang Anshi couldn't help sighing with emotion: "In this world, how many people can see the general situation clearly? This person can do this, but it is enough to be admired."

  Zhu Di said: "Tonight, you have to work harder and hand over the matter here immediately."

  Zhang Anshi is a little strange.

  Zhu Di continued to look at Zhang Anshi and said: "Tomorrow morning, you will drive with me and return to Beijing immediately."

  Zhang Anshi was surprised: "Your Majesty, are you in such a hurry?"

Zhu Di said: "A day in the sky is a year in the world. What happened to me in Jiangxi has been leaked. In this capital, I don't know how many people live like years, and I don't know how many things will happen! You have to know that what happens in any place in the world will happen at any time. Cause changes in the capital. Just like a slight change in the capital will also trigger changes in the state capitals."

Speaking of this, Zhu Di narrowed his eyes slightly, and said with a gloomy face: "Jiangyou Wu family has too much influence. I don't believe that this Wu family has no layout in the capital. The enemies here are terrible, but in the capital, lurking in the The enemies around me are even more terrifying."

  Zhang Anshi hurriedly said: "I understand, I will carry out the delivery now."

   Zhu Di said again: "Leave some reliable people for me to recover the stolen goods, but... here, I was cheated of five million taels of silver."

  Zhang Anshi said: "Your Majesty, it's not two and a half million..."

   Having said that, Zhu Di looked upset.

  Zhang Anshi suddenly understood something, so he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I told my subordinates to dig three feet into the ground and get back your Majesty's five million taels of silver."

  Zhu Di was quite satisfied with Zhang Anshi's answer, so he said: "You are busy, this place is originally the fief of King Ning, and I am still here for the first time, so I want to see it."

  The Shengjing Pagoda in the city of Nanchang Prefecture is known as the city of Jiangcheng, which is rich in water and fire.

  When Chen Youliang and Zhu Yuanzhang fought in Nanchang, the Shengjin Pagoda was destroyed in the fire. Since the first year of Hongwu, the local government began to rebuild.

  Therefore, at this time, the Shengjing Pagoda, whose rubble is as new as new, is the most prosperous and lively place in Nanchang City.

   At this time, the city has returned to calm, but here, many people have already gathered.

  But the government really set up a shed, and started to distribute eggs here.

  No matter who can memorize the notice written by Zhang Anshi, he can take the eggs and distribute them for one day until the distribution is exhausted.

   There were as many as a dozen egg sheds set up in the city. Suddenly, the alleys in the city were empty, and long queues formed in many places.

  This place is noisy and full of people.

  Zhu Di was walking with his hands behind his back. At this time, he was wearing an ordinary brocade suit. Behind him, Qiu Song led dozens of guards, who stayed at every step, and had hidden stakes, quietly setting up defenses in the nearby streets and alleys.

  Zhu Di stood on the rope sutra tower, looking at the long dragon swaying under the tower, his eyes were dim, and after a long time, he suddenly said sadly: "My egg!"

  Qiu Song touched his nose, still like a wooden stake.

  Zhu Di turned his head, glanced at Qiu Song, and said, "What do you seem to want to say?"

  Qiu Song said: "Brother told me, tell me to talk less."

  Zhu Di looked at the young master of Duke Qi with a pleasant face, and said with a slight smile, "It's okay to say what you want, don't always belong to the big brother, the big brother."

  Qiu Song thought for a while and said, "I'm thinking, if a three-thousand-jin bomb is dropped from here, tens of thousands of people will be smashed to pieces."

  Zhu Di: "..."

  When Zhu Di was speechless, Qiu Song continued: "But throwing bombs is another problem. Three thousand catties is too heavy. I don't know if flying **** can solve this problem."

  Zhu Di couldn't hold back anymore and said angrily: "Listen to your elder brother and shut up."

  Qiu Song glared at Zhu Di, seemed to recall something, calmed down again, and lowered his haughty head.

  ...

  Dawn of the next day, Zhu Di and Zhang Anshi had already set off as soon as the morning sun fell on the ground.

  Liu Guante, Minister of Rites, came to see him off.

  He knelt at the gate of the city and shouted long live.

  Zhu Di hit the horse and went straight.

   But when Zhang Anshi walked through the doorway behind, seeing Liu Guan still kneeling here, he couldn't help stopping his horse and said: "Grand Liu, Your Majesty has gone far."

  Liu Guan raised his head, smiled and said: "The courtesy of a monarch and his ministers cannot be discarded. Although it is far away, it is in the hearts of the ministers."

  Zhang Anshi was amazed. He really wanted to get off his horse and get some advice. To be honest, Liu Guan, Nanzhen Fusi's various case files about him are at least three feet high. This guy has a lot of bad records, and he has no pattern. Jin Jue, after going through the cruel Hongwu Year, and in the so-called "gentlemen's prosperity" atmosphere of the Jianwen Dynasty, he did not suffer too much exclusion and blows. When Zhu Di ascended the throne, he was not involved in several major cases.

  This guy... can be considered a talent.

  Zhang Anshi said: "I'll leave it to Mr. Liu for the matter here."

   Liu Guan said solemnly: "Don't worry, Your Majesty and Dudu Zhang, I, Liu Guan, who eats the king's salary and is loyal to the king, will definitely eradicate these traitors and leave no one behind."

  Zhang Anshi said with a dry smile: "Haha, when Liu Gong returns to Beijing, I will ask Liu Gong for advice."

  Liu Guandao: "I don't dare to teach you."

   Zhang Anshi immediately rode his horse and chased Zhu Di.

   Liu Guanfang didn't stand up until everyone had gone away.

There were people accompanying him to support him, Liu Guan had a murderous look on his face: "I, Liu Guan, do not share the sky with the rebellious officials and thieves, today I will teach them how to know the old man's methods, go back to the Xingyuan, and put Wu and Xu Qiren under custody for the old man to interrogate. "

   "Here."

  ...

  The capital.

  In Wenyuan Pavilion.

  When news began to spread in the capital that His Majesty had actually visited Jiangxi privately, the several academicians in Wenyuan Pavilion were all dumbfounded.

  Hu Yan and Jin Youzi are from Jiangxi, and they were even more shocked because there was no news beforehand.

  Hu Yan immediately found Yang Rong.

   "Duke Yang, what's going on, why doesn't His Majesty even say hello... this... this..."

  Yang Rong looked up at Hu Yan, and said, "I warned you before, did you ever follow my advice?"

   "do...do what?"

   "Tell your relatives not to interfere."

  Hu Yan stammered and said: "I have studied books, why, Yang Gong thought..."

  Yang Rong frowned and said, "Something might happen."

  Hu Yan said: "No way, maybe His Majesty just... cares about the railway... so..."

  Yang Rong interrupted him and said: "My heart is on the railway, and there is a railway in Zhili, so why bother to look far away? Unless there is a serious problem with the railway in Jiangxi, so that His Majesty insists on a private visit."

  Hu Yan said movedly: "What big problems can there be when building a railway?"

  Yang Rong said: "Yes, what big problems can be caused by building a railway?"

  He smiled slightly, with sarcasm in his eyes: "Whether there will be problems, let's not say for now, but right now, it may not be peaceful."

  Hu Yan asked suspiciously, "Not peaceful?"

  Yang Rong pondered, but stopped talking.

   It took two days.

  In a mansion in central Beijing, someone sent a letter by flying horse.

   "Mr. Zeng." The visitor took the letterhead and said, "There is a letter, and it was sent urgently."

   This person called Mr. Zeng obviously just came off duty, and his expression is solemn.

   Such a letter should be sent urgently, not to mention it is rumored that His Majesty is not in the capital, after much deliberation, he must have gone to Jiangxi.

   Mr. Zeng received the letter and couldn't wait to open it, his face suddenly changed.

   "Grandpa Zeng...you are..."

  This person known as Mr. Zeng, with a shaky body, couldn't help but said: "How did things get to this point, how did they get to this point! They are too bold, too bold. This is a great crime to punish the three clans..."

   "Mr. Zeng..."

Soon, the man known as Mr. Zeng slowly regained his composure. After taking a deep breath, he said, "The water thieves from Jiujiang have besieged the city of Jiujiang. Your Majesty...the life and death of that city is uncertain. That city should be captured by the water thieves." gone."

   "Ah... Mr. Zeng means..."

   "His Majesty is very likely to die."

   "This... this..." The visitor tried hard to show his grief.

  The person surnamed Zeng couldn't help showing a look of extreme pain, and wept: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty... ah..."

   "Mr. Zeng... Is the news credible?"

  The person surnamed Zeng took a deep look at him: "It couldn't be more believable."

"So…"

   "Those who write letters, let them respond quickly."

   "Quick response?"

   "Hurry up, ask someone to prepare the sedan chair. This matter needs to be discussed with the lords. Now is definitely not the time to sit here and wait for death. His Majesty died in Jiujiang Mansion. When the time comes... a thorough investigation is necessary."

   "Didn't you say that this was done by water thieves?"

  The person surnamed Zeng took another deep look at the visitor, and then said: "Everything... will be discussed after the new king ascends the throne. Oh, yes, Zhang Anshi is probably dead."

  As soon as this remark came out, the person who came showed a look of shock, and couldn't help it: "Dead? If so... it's a happy event."

  The human surname Zeng said: "Right now, who can succeed Zhang An to take charge of the Right Governor's Mansion and Nanzhen Fusi... is the most important thing."

  The visitor bowed his head in silence, and after a while, he raised his head slightly and said, "His Royal Highness... who is the one you trust the most..."

  The man surnamed Zeng paced back and forth, his face uncertain.

  He knew very well that the reason why someone rushed to get Baili to send this news was because the news was so critical.

  Many times, whoever grabs important information first will mean... a big fortune.

  The new king is about to ascend the throne, the world has changed hands, one emperor and one courtier. At this time, it is the most suitable time to take this opportunity to cut off the opponent and make yourself soar.

Therefore, the person surnamed Zeng took a deep breath, and said: "This matter needs to be discussed with the gentlemen, and this matter must be straightforward, if not... Once the Nanzhen Fusi and Yoududu's mansions fall In the hands of Zhang Anshi's former subordinates, such as Gao Xiang and Chen Li... in the future, it will definitely be bad for us."

  The visitor couldn't help asking: "What qualifications do these two have?"

  The person surnamed Zeng shook his head and said: "It depends on the attitude of His Royal Highness. So at this time... whoever can help His Royal Highness ascend the throne quickly and stabilize the ruling and opposition parties will gain trust."

  The person surnamed Zeng immediately said decisively: "Let's go, discuss this matter immediately, and come up with a plan."

  The man surnamed Zeng, with dark eyes, continued: "The meeting of wind and clouds, it's time...it's time to use those people."

  The visitor couldn't help raising his thick eyebrows suddenly, and tremblingly said: "Mr. Zeng means..."

  The person surnamed Zeng pursed his lips and smiled: "Raise soldiers for a thousand days, and use them for a while!"

  He said these words firmly.

   It made the visitor shudder.

  ...

  Eastern Palace.

  Zhu Gaochi reviewed the memorials, and it was late at night.

  The emperor's private visits, he has long been used to it.

  He knew that his father was a restless person, not like an emperor, but more like a general.

  However, since he has started various businesses recently, he is now more like a big merchant.

   All in all, in Zhu Gaochi's mind, his father didn't look like an emperor at all.

  At least in Zhu Gaochi's view, the emperor cannot be idle.

  After reviewing the memorials, Zhu Gaochi couldn't help shaking his head and said: "An Shi, this guy, also stays with Father Emperor all day long, this guy... is also a hyperactive person..."

  At this moment, an **** came in small steps and said respectfully: "His Royal Highness, someone is here to see you."

  Zhu Di couldn't help frowning and said, "Who is it in the middle of the night?"

  ...

   Ask for a monthly pass.
