Zhu Youjian: Taizu has an order! kill!

Recently, there has been no peace in the capital.

First, a group of corrupt officials were killed, and then they were imprisoned by the Tatars.

After finally repelling it, another major case was discovered at the border guard.

It was said that the eight major Shanxi merchants were colluding with the Tatars, and Jin Yiwei and Dongchang jointly investigated it.

A total of more than 3 people are being escorted into Beijing!

As soon as the news spread, the sales of melon and fruit refreshments in the entire capital instantly tripled.

People everywhere are chatting about this matter.

Originally, many people were skeptical at first, but today an imperial list was posted at the city gate.

This suspicion soon dissipated.

This imperial list lists in detail the crimes of the eight major Shanxi merchants.

At the same time, it was also stated that in seven days, all these people would be beheaded in front of Zhongyi Temple!

More than 3 people!

Kill all!

Even though the sun has been good these days, the coldness in the imperial list still made the people watching shrink their heads.

"tyrant..."

"Tyrant!"

"Many of the more than 3 people are young and old. What are their crimes?"

"This is simply an act of tyranny!"

In front of the imperial list, a young man dressed as a scholar suddenly pointed at the imperial list, blushed and said angrily!

It looked like His Majesty had killed his entire family!

He was seen waving his arms and kept shouting to stir up the thoughts of the people watching.

However, despite letting him talk for a long time, he didn't even hear a response.

The young man dressed as a scholar was a little confused by the indifference of the people around him.

what's the situation?

Why don't these fools cater to him?

Is what he said wrong?

No matter how you look at it, this act of killing more than 3 people, old and young, is a complete tyrant!

But before he could figure it out.

A rotten egg flew from nowhere and hit him directly on the head!

And this time it seemed as if something had been triggered.

Stinky leaves and rotten eggs came all over the place, with a lot of stones in the middle.

"Get out of here, uncle! You dare to say that you are not your Majesty? I will beat you to death!"

"These bastards have themselves to blame. Well done, Your Majesty!"

"I have long disliked you. Are you anxious because you received money from these eight companies?"

"Although we are poor people, we still know how to be patriotic! These people have nothing to do with having sons, so what are they doing if they don't kill them and keep them?"

"Hit him! How dare you scold the current emperor!"

Along with the angry curses around him, the young man was directly beaten to death.

I had no choice but to run out in embarrassment, holding my head.

He wanted to say a few more words, but some of the words in the crowd scared him!

Yes, he did receive money from these eight families and it was quite a lot.

Those Shanxi merchants gave considerable preferential treatment to scholars like them who might become officials in the court.

A lot of money is waiting for you every year!

But now, with one strike from His Majesty, everything is gone!

How can this not make them, the scholars, angry!

What he didn't expect was that he originally thought he could incite the people to label the current emperor a tyrant.

The result was unexpected. These people were not fools and were not deceived at all.

Instead, he was a little panicked now.

Because just now, the two guards in charge of guarding the imperial list had turned their heads and looked at him several times.

He seemed to be wondering whether he had taken bribes.

This frightened him terribly, and he could only cover his face and run away for fear of being targeted by the Jin Yiwei.

And this scene was also seen by many spies around.

As Wei Zhongxian caused such a big thing at the border.

All the officials in the imperial court naturally received the news.

For a moment, most of the officials broke out in a cold sweat and felt bad!

Especially the people from the Donglin Party were so frightened that they couldn't sleep well.

They received an unknown amount of money from Shanxi merchants.

As long as Jin Yiwei wants to check it, he will definitely be able to find it.

With Zhu Youjian's character, if he is held accountable, his whole family will be beheaded!

No, I originally thought about asking the scholar to go to the imperial list to make some noise to see if he could put some pressure on His Majesty.

However, the reaction of these people made them feel even heavier.

Does Zhu Youjian already have such a high reputation among the people?

Trouble!

Many officials saw that the pressure was useless, and some pessimistic ones had people prepare coffins and wait for the Jin Yiwei to come and arrest them.

However, until Wei Zhongxian entered the city, they did not wait for the Jin Yiwei people to come.

Instead, they waited until Zhu Youjian invited them to watch outside the Zhongyi Temple!

This...

Are you going to personally chop off our heads outside Zhongyi Temple?

These officials were trembling with fear after receiving the invitation, but they did not dare not go, so they could only go to the appointment with a grimace.

"Taizu, this is the first time I have seen them so honest."

"Oh, it turns out they are afraid too."

"I thought they were all tough-headed and not afraid of beheading."

Outside the imperial city, Zhu Youjian stood on the city wall and looked at the trembling officials below, with a hint of ridicule on his face.

According to the past, if he dared to give such an order, these censors would have made a huge noise.

However, so far, he has not waited for anyone to come out and accuse him.

These bastards can be scared too!

This time, Zhu Youjian was even more disappointed.

No one in the government or the public is innocent.

No wonder Taizu said that the Ming Dynasty was about to end!

Li Chen, who was floating by the side, shrugged calmly, not too surprised.

People are lucky.

I thought nothing would happen, but if something did happen, I would regret it.

This is human nature!

However, although we are not going to kill them today, we still need to make some use of these wastes.

The site of Zhongyi Temple is on the left side of the Imperial City.

At present, tens of thousands of people have gathered outside Zhongyi Temple.

They all heard that the current emperor was coming to supervise the beheading and were ready to see his face.

After all, Zhu Youjian currently has a very high reputation among the people.

Looking at these people, Li Chen chuckled twice.

These are the best microphones!

"Let's get started, don't waste time."

"Finish it as soon as possible so that we can start the next step."

Li Chen glanced at the sun above his head, narrowed his eyes slightly and said.

Zhu Youjian, who had been impatient for a long time, nodded immediately.

He waved his hand towards Wang Chengen who was on the side.

"Give me the order to begin."

"Tell Wei Zhongxian that this matter must be done!"

"I don't want to embarrass myself in front of the people."

Wang Cheng'en took the order and soon took Zhu Youjian's oral instructions to the entrance of Zhongyi Temple.

Wei Zhongxian, who was standing in the open space, raised the corners of his mouth slightly after receiving the order.

"Go and invite some of the heads of the eight Shanxi merchants to come up."

"Then have the officials kneel at the door."

"Prepare them with paper, ink, pens and inkstones!"

Wei Zhongxian had just come back and before he had time to enter the palace, he was pulled by Wang Chengen to arrange a lot of things.

After hearing the emperor's thoughts, Wei Zhongxian was suddenly frightened.

Then there was deep admiration and a hint of fear.

The emperor's thoughts are too mature, and the mature judgment is not what he should make at his age.

Is there really such a thing as a born emperor?

Zhu Youjian's performance after he ascended the throne was completely different from that of King Xin.

Although Wei Zhongxian was from Emperor Tianqi, he was also very familiar with Zhu Youjian.

And even he had never seen that Zhu Youjian had such a personality before!

He lied to everyone!

However, this is also a good thing.

If Zhu Youjian is really pedantic, then Wei Zhongxian will have no chance of surviving.

Only this born emperor can tolerate the existence of a eunuch like him!

Zhu Youjian didn't know at this time that his opinion in Wei Zhongxian's heart was already so high.

Otherwise, I'm afraid my face will turn red...

However, Wei Zhongxian was not wrong in his assessment.

After all, Taizu was indeed a born emperor!

And now Taizu is helping him step by step.

Then just wait until Zhu Youjian is also a born emperor.

Well, no problem!
