Zhu Youjian: Taizu has an order! kill!

Not long after, the heads of the eight major Shanxi merchants were escorted up.

The big men who usually showed off their power now all looked defeated.

Some of them were even shaking so much that they couldn't even walk steadily and were almost dragged up.

Outside the door, the real owner was escorted to the scene.

Wei Zhongxian walked slowly to the kneeling officials at the door.

Looking at the group of quails in front of him, Wei Zhongxian couldn't help but snorted in contempt.

Are you usually not very good at dancing?

What, why didn’t you call me today?

Sure enough, these rotten scholars are all a bunch of bastards who are afraid of death.

"Pass the Emperor's order to give you an opportunity to report and expose."

"The collusion between these eight Shanxi merchants is a serious treasonous crime."

"As long as you report it and provide evidence, it will be considered a credit."

"Of course, if you can't report it, our family won't force it."

After Wei Zhongxian said this, all the officials below who had shrunk their heads were stunned for two seconds.

Then there was a burst of ecstasy!

They are not fools and can naturally understand the meaning of these words.

Your Majesty doesn't plan to serve them all at once this time!

Instead, it gave them a chance to spend money to atone for their sins.

The focus of these sentences lies in the word "evidence".

If the "evidence" is insufficient, the emperor's knife will probably be chopped off!

"Emperor Shengming!"

"The old minister was originally preparing to expose the eight major Shanxi merchants' collusion with the Tatars."

"I just didn't expect the emperor to move so quickly."

"In the minister's room, there is a secret message that they want to bribe the old minister. There is also 50 taels of stolen silver sealed in the treasury."

"Old Chen Qian hasn't touched a single penny of these. They have been sealed up long ago."

"My veteran's favor from the emperor is incompatible with his sin!"

"Please ask your Majesty to take a closer look. I am very grateful!"

I saw an old man in the Ministry of Rites suddenly raised his pen and said loudly.

Looking at this look, if you didn't know better, you would think that this guy is a person with a sense of justice.

Even Wei Zhongxian couldn't help but applaud at this time.

"He is indeed the pillar of the country, and money cannot change his ambition."

"I admire you."

"Hurry up and send someone to his house to search him carefully."

"Anything that does not suit this loyal minister will be brought back to our family."

"We can't let the vulgar things sent by these eight Shanxi merchants tarnish our loyal ministers of the Ming Dynasty!"

Since you asked me to get it, it would be disrespectful for our family to refuse.

do not worry!

Dongchang's service is absolutely perfect!

There will definitely be no stolen money left behind!

Wei Zhongxian's words were like a knife thrust into the old man's face.

It hurts!

It hurts!

This is not a search for dirty money. This is a disguised search of a house!

But even if he knew that Wei Zhongxian was going to ransack his home, he could only grit his teeth and endure it.

Otherwise, if Wei Zhongxian really pursues the case, he may not be able to bear it with ten heads!

"Yes, yes, please make sure Eunuch Wei is aware of this."

"You must give me a reputation of being honest!"

"I don't want to lose my integrity in my old age."

Losing integrity?

It sounds like you have...

Wei Zhongxian chuckled twice with a smile on his face.

He nodded and then looked at the other officials next to him.

What the hell are you doing standing there in a daze?

You don’t want your head anymore, do you?

The other officials shuddered when they looked at Wei Zhongxian's sinister smile.

In the end, I could only pick up a pen and paper and start writing quickly.

No need to make excuses, there is a good example right in front of you.

Before long, piles of criticisms about the eight major Shanxi merchants fell into Wei Zhongxian's hands.

Looking at the evidence that had just been written down, Wei Zhongxian shook his shoulders with satisfaction.

"Go and post these crimes on the wall outside."

"We must let the people in the whole city know that our officials in the Ming Dynasty are loyal, honest and shameless beings."

"I will never do that kind of thing where I give birth to a son without sex, have pus on the soles of my feet, and be infamy for thousands of years!"

"Tell them that it was our good Ming officials who reported these Shanxi merchants that allowed the emperor to successfully kill these moths who are worse than dogs!"

What does it mean to criticize Sang and Kui?

This is called pointing fingers and scolding Kui!

Wei Zhongxian's words made all the officials below extremely angry.

But he didn't dare to say anything, he could only lower his head in confusion.

On the other hand, the eight gentlemen on the stage became anxious when they saw all the senior officials starting to kill their donkeys!

"Master Zhou, save me!"

"Master Cao, please help me. I give you 30 taels every year. You can't do this to me!"

"You bastards, each one is greedier than the other when it comes to taking money, but you can't do anything to help if something goes wrong!"

"Master Sun, save me! I don't want to die! I'll give you 100 million, and you go and beg the emperor for mercy!"

These eight leaders scolded and begged.

It can be seen that the emotions are very exciting!

However, the officials remained unmoved and closed their eyes as if they did not hear.

It's a great blessing that the emperor didn't cause trouble for them today.

If they still don't know what's going on, I'm afraid they'll have to go down there to keep company.

Just let them scold you and get on your way!

Not long after, Wei Zhongxian announced the evidence of the crime written by the officials to all the people watching.

Listening to the shocking transactions, the eyes of countless people turned red at this moment!

"Kill them!"

"Kill these dog thieves!"

"Grandma, they are a bunch of bastards!"

"As a scholar, I am afraid that I have read this book incorrectly!"

"kill!"

"Avenge our compatriots who were robbed at the border!"

Deafening shouts of death suddenly resounded throughout the square.

Zhu Youjian, who was standing on the city wall, looked at this scene and nodded with satisfaction.

This is what I want!

I believe that after today, merchants throughout the Ming Dynasty will know that it was the officials of the Ming Dynasty who jointly testified against the eight Shanxi merchants.

A bunch of rats were eliminated for the entire Ming Dynasty!

As long as this news spreads, Zhu Youjian doesn't believe that the traders dare to bribe these officials.

"Pass the word on, let's get started!"

"Hang these bastards on that old crooked neck tree!"

"Then peel it, fill it with grass, and hang it on the city gate!"

Seeing that the time was almost up, Zhu Youjian took a deep breath, waved his hand and shouted!

Li Chen, who had been silent next to him, couldn't help but smile a little when he heard these words.

He also didn't expect that Zhu Youjian would transplant the old crooked neck tree on Meishan Mountain to the front of Zhongyi Temple.

It seems that Zhu Youjian has a lot of resentment about hanging himself.

To be honest, it's a little bit...

But Li Chen can understand.

If it were him, he would probably do the same thing.

Whoever dares to let me hang myself to die for my country, I will hang you bastards first!

Below, after receiving the order, Wei Zhongxian simply sent these eight people on their way!

No matter how hard they struggled for mercy, within a few minutes all eight of them became pendants on this old crooked tree.

Swaying slightly with the breeze, it looks very harmonious.

The eight major Shanxi merchants who had caused harm to the Ming Dynasty for many years finally ended their bastard life today.

And then their nine tribes will go with them!
