Zhu Youjian: Taizu has an order! kill!

"Prince Zhou, I dare not give you any guarantee for this kind of thing."

"You are a member of the royal family. The specific punishment can only be decided by His Majesty."

"What I can say is that if you work hard and cooperate, it will definitely be better than if you don't cooperate or even make trouble."

"It shouldn't be a big problem to save your life."

He has no ability to guarantee that King Zhou's family will be safe.

Being able to show the way is his limit.

"Okay, I understand."

"No matter what your Majesty wants to do, I will definitely support you!"

"The money and land will be handed over immediately."

"As for whether you can escape the disaster...it depends on God's will."

"I don't think His Majesty will force us into a dead end."

Zhu Gongzhen still felt a little uncomfortable because he couldn't get Wen Tiren's guarantee.

But he also knew that this matter could not be delayed any longer.

Wen Tiren belongs to Confucianism and is relatively mellow in his approach.

If we really wait until the Legalists are killed before we free our hands, then something big will really happen!

That's all...

Since it is the people's fat and the people's anointing, then it should be returned to the people.

I just hope that your majesty will not embarrass him for the sake of his clan.

"Prince Zhou, when you return, you must inform all the princes in the south immediately."

"Let them hand over the occupied lands and the bribes they collected as soon as possible."

"I will give you three days."

"After three days, I won't care so much anymore."

"At that time, the Jin Yiwei and the army will blockade the major towns in the south and clean them up one by one."

"Kill first and then promote His Majesty's land reform policy."

"Believe me, this will be an earth-shaking reform. I hope all the princes can understand it."

Wen Tiren saw that King Zhou did not ask him for a guarantee again.

After thinking for a while, he whispered a few more reminders.

Three days later, he will take the lead in Nanjing to clean up the entire landlords, gentry, and officials of the six ministries.

After all, the Legalists were keeping an eye on him, so he didn't dare to delay it for too long.

"Thank you, sir."

Silently write down what Wen Tiren said.

Only then did Zhu Gongzhen hand over his hand and say goodbye.

When he left the house, he happened to see Zhu Huakui waiting for him at the door.

"King Zhou, do you really want to hand over the money?"

"We are all members of His Majesty's clan. As long as we can unite, he will not be able to kill us."

Zhu Huakui has been waiting at the door for a long time.

Seeing Zhu Gongzhen finally come out, he hurriedly stepped forward and said.

He is getting more and more angry now.

I always feel that what Zhu Youjian did is a bit excessive.

So what if they were greedy for some of the people's wealth?

They are a royal family, shouldn't they have some privileges?

"King Chu..."

"Didn't you also go to the capital to worship your ancestors some time ago?"

"It's not like you haven't seen how many people were hanged from the tree around the foreigner's neck."

"Furthermore, even Queen Zhou's father dared to be exiled and exiled to the army. How much better can we be than the head of the state?"

"He is a descendant of King Yan. How ruthless is he? Do you dare to bet?"

Zhu Gongzhen felt a little pain in his head when he heard these words.

In the lineage of King Yan, the rebels rebelled, the uncles killed the uncles, there was nothing else they dared not do.

Not to mention that if princes like them are really plundering people's wealth and anointing, then there will be enough reasons for the murderers.

"I don't believe it!"

"King Yan had no choice but to rebel. Zhu Zhanji still can't clear himself of the murder of his uncle."

"Zhu Youjian wants to be the emperor for eternity, can he still lose this reputation?"

"King Zhou, I think we have to unite and we can't let this kid get so rampant."

"Using our money to build his career is bullshit!"

However, Zhu Huakui couldn't listen to this at all.

He stubbornly believed that Zhu Youjian was right and they did not dare to object, so they dared to act like this.

As long as these princes join forces, they can definitely make Zhu Youjian give in.

"Do you think this is the Taizu period and we all have military power in our hands?"

"If Zhu Youjian really wants to implement his so-called reforms at all costs, can we really use our heads to stop him?"

"If King Chu wants it, you can do it yourself."

"I don't dare to play with the lives of the nine clans in my family like this."

"Farewell."

Not enough words to speculate.

Zhu Gongzhen looked at Zhu Huakui who was losing his money and could only shake his head and said this.

If you are awesome, go ahead.

Anyway, he would not break up with Zhu Youjian for these two taels of silver.

With that said, he was too lazy to talk to Zhu Huakui and left alone.

He had to go back quickly to prepare.

"you..."

Seeing Zhu Gongzhen being so cowardly, Zhu Huakui's face turned ugly.

But in the end, he could only hold back his anger and shook his head.

Okay, I'll wait for you!

-----------------------------

Two days later.

In Suzhou City.

Although the temperature has been rising recently, there is an inexplicable coldness in Suzhou at this time.

Even the streets were quite depressed.

After all, the common people were not stupid. They hid at home and never went out when they sensed something was wrong.

At this time, in the government office, Feng Ying looked at the files that had been sorted out in his hand, his expression gloomy to the extreme.

As the investigation continues to deepen, one murder case after another crazily emerges as if there is no money.

"What a Confucian."

"What a landowner and squire."

“It’s really not a pity to bring disaster to the country and the people’s lives!”

Gritting his teeth, Feng Ying took a deep breath and snorted coldly.

Officials protect each other, and public resentment abounds.

These people are simply digging at the foundation of Ming Dynasty!

He only knew that Suzhou was corrupt before, but he never wanted to become this corrupt.

"Corrupt scholars who harm the country deserve to die."

"Otherwise, why would our family treat these pillars of the imperial court like this before?"

"They are all bastards who are worse than pigs and dogs."

Next to him, Wei Zhongxian, who was drinking tea silently, couldn't help but smile when he saw Feng Ying being so angry.

He knows very well what a furu is.

However, he is just an eunuch, and even with great power, he cannot really eliminate these cancers.

"Hmph, rotten scholars and eunuchs should both die."

"Say it as if your hands are clean."

"Then Sun Zhixian is yours, even Ling Chi is not enough."

Feng Ying rolled his eyes and said.

You, Wei Zhongxian, sound like a good person.

They're all the same.

Sun Zhixian...

Wei Zhongxian's face suddenly turned ugly when he heard these three words.

He held the tea for a while before shaking his head.

"Our family is just a eunuch. He is trusted by Master Tianqi and takes control of the court."

"If our family hadn't been shady at the time, we probably wouldn't have been able to support Lord Chongzhen from taking over."

"You can say that our family is greedy or that our family is dirty, but we accept these."

"But one thing is, our family only has the emperor in our hearts and nothing else."

"For our family, as long as what we do is beneficial to the emperor, it is right."

Wei Zhongxian did not deny the things he had done before.

There is no need to deny it.

He was originally a mad dog released by Master Tianqi to target the court.

He will bite whomever Master Tianqi tells him to bite.

"You are loyal..."

"That's all, we won't discuss this today."

"Now that the investigation in Suzhou City is almost complete, I am ready to take action immediately."

"Is there a problem on your side?"

After hearing this, Feng Ying curled her lips slightly but did not refute.

He sighed and dropped the topic.

Let’s talk about the matter at hand first.
