Chapter 152 Mr. Yue Wants to Kill

Just when Yue Buqun was about to knock on the door, he saw the closed door suddenly opened, this sudden change shocked even Yue Buqun.

Qian Li's figure appeared in Yue Buqun's line of sight, and Qian Li showed surprise on his face, as if he had just seen Yue Buqun. Master Yue, I don't know what happened to Young Hero Linghu's injuries."

While speaking, Qian Li showed a bit of guilt on his face and said, "It's all Qian's fault. If it's not because of Qian, Young Man Linghu won't be injured."

Yue Buqun didn't speak, just looked at Qian Li, listening to Qian Li's words, a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Seeing that Yue Buqun didn't speak, Qian Li's eyes flashed with surprise, and he pretended to go out and said, "I wonder if I can go and see the injury of Young Hero Linghu, after all...after all It's because I'm injured!"

At this moment, Yue Buqun shook his head and said: "Mr. Qian is bothering you, but my scoundrel is dealing with the wound right now, so it's inconvenient. Mr. Qian doesn't have to worry too much, it's just a flesh wound. You just need to rest for a few days."

Qian Li heaved a sigh of relief, nodded repeatedly and said, "That's good, that's good, luckily it's a flesh injury, otherwise, Qian will die forever!"

Paying respects to Yue Buqun again, Qian Li said again: "Leader Yue, please don't blame Young Hero Linghu, everything is my fault, it's not that Young Hero Linghu wants to bring me here..."

Yue Buqun coughed lightly, interrupting Qian Li's words: "Mr. Qian, let's not mention these things, Yue is just curious, where is Mr. Qian going next?"

Qian Li was slightly taken aback, with a look of misery on his face, and said in grief and indignation: "Now Qian is homeless, his brother and son were killed by Li Huan, and even his relatives were implicated and their homes were ransacked. It's so big, where can Qian go, sometimes Qian feels that it's better to just die..."

The corner of Yue Buqun's mouth twitched, and suddenly he felt an urge to expose the other party.

But after taking a deep breath, Yue Buqun said with a smile: "I never thought that Mr. Qian's experience would be so miserable. Yue really sympathizes."

Qian Li raised his head to look at Yue Buqun, and he heard Yue Buqun say with a embarrassed look: "If possible, Yue would like to stay here for a while to avoid the limelight."

Qian Li's complexion changed, and he said with a miserable look: "I understand the meaning of Master Yue. After all, I am the most important criminal that Jin Yiwei wants to arrest. It is indeed not good to stay here for Master Yue and Young Hero Linghu Trouble, let's go now..."

Said that Qian Li was about to leave, but Yue Buqun stretched out his hand to hold Qian Li's shoulder, shook his head slightly under Qian Li's astonished gaze, and said, "Mr. Sir, leave, otherwise, what's the point of my disciple bringing you back?"

Now Qian Li looked at Yue Buqun rather puzzled, his face full of puzzlement.

Yue Buqun stroked his beard and looked at Qian Li with a smile: "At first, Yue was planning to leave Fuzhou City, but now that Fuzhou City is in such a mess, we, master and apprentice, should leave after staying for a few days. I will leave it to Mr. Qian to accommodate you."

Qian Li's eyes widened, obviously he did not expect that Yue Buqun planned to leave this place for him to settle down, almost subconsciously, Qian Li said: "Now that the gates of the city are closed, how will Sect Master Yue leave the city?"

A look of anticipation flashed in Qian Li's eyes. If there is a way to leave the city, he naturally wants to leave the city and stay in the city. Who knows if he will be caught by Jin Yiwei.

Yue Buqun said with a smile: "For the matter of going out of the city, Yue has his own way. Mr. Qian can recover from his injuries as much as possible. This place is remote, so if you think about it, you just need to be careful, and you don't have to worry about being discovered."

As he spoke, Yue Buqun patted Qian Li on the shoulder, then took out a porcelain bottle from his bosom and handed it to Qian Li, saying, "This is a secret medicine for wounds. I see that Mr. Qian has injuries. Although they are not serious, they are still Just have to deal with it."

Under Qian Li's astonished gaze, Yue Buqun left slowly with his hands behind his back.

A stern look flashed in his eyes, Qian Li opened his mouth, recalling all of Yue Buqun's expressions, words, and reactions after seeing Yue Buqun, and whispered softly: "This is the modest gentleman that Linghu Chong said. How do I feel that this is a slippery old fox!"

Fuzhou City

There was such a big commotion yesterday that the shouts of killing could be heard in half of Fuzhou City. I don’t know how many people hid at home and trembled while listening to the shouts of killing outside with their doors closed.

It has been so peaceful for so many years, and it suddenly happened like this. Who has experienced such a thing among ordinary people? I am afraid that it will not be slowed down in a few days.

Of course, there are also people who are a little more courageous. After hearing that there is no movement outside and the sound of shouting for killing disappears, they can't help their inner curiosity. They secretly look out through the crack of the door, only to see a group of people exuding evil spirits all over their bodies. The soldiers of the guards were cleaning up the corpses on the long street, and the miserable-looking corpses were thrown onto the carts, filled to the brim, and then pushed away.

As the night recedes, a red sun rises from the sky, and it is a new day.

prefect yamen
The long street in front of the prefect's yamen today was cleaned up all night, and finally returned to its original appearance before the sun came out.

Of course, it is obviously unrealistic to completely restore the original state. At most, the corpses and blood left over from yesterday's fierce battle have been cleaned up. What might recover.

Under normal circumstances, people should already be coming and going on the long street at this time, but now it is deserted, and only sparse figures can be seen.

Obviously, those who dare to come out at this time must be extremely courageous. These people looked at the remaining traces of fighting on both sides of the long street, and it seemed that there was still a bloody smell left in the air after the fight last night.

On the high wall in front of the magistrate's yamen, a notice was pasted on it, and some people had already surrounded it before the notice.

It is human nature to be curious and join in the fun, even though many people died here yesterday, but when the first person appeared in front of the notice, it didn't take long for a group of people to surround him.

A brocade guard was standing under the notice, reading the contents of the notice aloud.

"There are left Buzheng Gu Huang and right Buzheng Qian Zhong...Assassinated imperial envoys, conspired to rebel...Confiscated the family and exterminated the family...The male was sentenced to death, and the female was sent to the Jiaofang Secretary..."

The content of the announcement is naturally literary, some people listened to it at a loss, while others did not know a single word, so they were confused.

Someone couldn't help but boldly asked the Captain of Jinyiwei who was reading the notice: "My lord, what does this notice mean? Can you explain it to us?"

Although he said he was afraid of Jin Yiwei, but he really couldn't restrain his curiosity.

After hearing the words, Jin Yiwei immediately explained to the crowd: "Everyone, the meaning of the notice is that Gu Huang, Qian Zhong and other officials colluded with Cai Wen to murder the imperial envoy. According to the court law, this is a serious crime of rebellion. Now the Imperial Envoy has asked for the banner of Wang Ming, and plans to behead Gu Huang, Qian Zhong and other criminals and their relatives at noon tomorrow to show the public, so as to make an example of others."

"Ah, I want to behead!"

Someone exclaimed.

"It's the first time I've seen the heads of so many officials and lords beheaded at once. I'm going to come and see the excitement tomorrow anyway."

While talking, several guards took a few white papers with black characters and pasted them on the wall.

Someone who could read came up to take a look, and suddenly his eyes lit up and he shouted loudly: "Everyone, take a look, this seems to be about the crimes committed by the Qian family, the Gu family, and the He family, which were raided and wiped out." numerous crimes."

Immediately, a group of people gathered around again, only calling for the man to read it aloud to them.

"Now there are brothers of the Qian family, the elder brother Qian Zhong sells officials and nobles, corrupts the law...Qian Yong kills people like hemp, and once colluded with Japanese pirates to slaughter Xishui Village and Chenjiawu..."

"He Wencao, a son of the He family, took human lives and robbed the women of the people, so that sister Jing Xiao'e in Baima Town could not bear the humiliation and committed suicide by throwing herself into the water..."

……

As the person read out the crimes committed by the various families written on the white paper, many people watched the excitement at first, but after a while, they saw a wave of hatred on each face.

"Oh my god, Xishui Village and Chenjiawu were massacred by the Qian family in collusion with Japanese pirates. That's hundreds of lives. When the murder case came out, I don't know how sensational it was, but it turned out to be nothing. I thought it was the Qian family who did it..."

Someone yelled: "Have you seen that the four brothers of the Qian family have nothing good? The eldest Qian Zhong is corrupt and violates the law, sells officials and nobles, the second kills people like hemp, slaughters villages and wipes out households, the third raises thugs to bully the market, and hoards things for strange things. The fourth child is not bad either, bullying males and females, forcing girls into prostitution..."

"It's time to kill, God is really eye-opening, none of these people has a good thing, the imperial envoy ordered the extermination of the three clans, it's really satisfying!"

Among the crowd, Yue Buqun, who was wearing a blue shirt, also looked at the notice on the high wall.

Compared to those ordinary people who were mostly illiterate and could only know what kind of crimes these officials and their relatives who were about to be executed had committed through the mouths of others, Yue Buqun could see clearly in black and white.

It can be seen that the people who sorted out the crimes committed by these officials and their relatives put their heart into it, and recorded all the crimes committed by these people in detail.

Although there are only a few words for crimes such as destroying people and massacring villages, at least not a fool knows what kind of bloody sin those few words represent.

When Yue Buqun's eyes fell on the crimes committed by the Qian family brothers, he especially noticed Qian Li among the four brothers of the Qian family. There were no less than a dozen people, and two or three families were directly wiped out by Qian Li.

Breathing out a foul breath, Yue Buqun stood among the crowd, looked at the notice, and turned his eyes to those Jinyiwei and the solemn magistrate's yamen, with a thoughtful look on his face.

Suddenly a shrill howl sounded from around him, which only startled Yue Buqun.

This wailing sound was both grief and indignation, but also a kind of joy of revenge.

"My miserable daughter, have you seen it in the spirit of the sky? God has eyes. The damned Qian family has finally been punished."

Yue Buqun glanced at the white-haired old woman in surprise, at this moment someone seemed to recognize the old woman and said in a low voice: "It turned out to be the Liu Qin family from Liu's Hutong. People with a miserable life, a family that was originally good, just because of a pair of twin daughters that Qian Li admired and could not ask for, Qian Li actually sent someone to beat Liu Qin's two sons to death, in front of Liu Qin raped her face and killed her pair of daughters, at that time Liu Qin couldn't stand the stimulation and went crazy..."

"Ah, so it turns out that the crazy woman in Liu's Alley is her."

The old woman cried out like a ghost: "Have you ever experienced the pain of your parents and children being beaten to death in front of you, and your daughter being humiliated to death in front of you? Old lady, I am indeed crazy, if I am not crazy If it happened, I'm afraid Qian Li was also killed by that beast at that time."

"Hahaha, open your eyes, the Qian family has finally been punished..."

Liu Qinshi just stumbled towards the direction of the Liujia Hutong, laughing wantonly while walking, and shouting that the Qian family finally suffered retribution.

Yue Buqun stared at Liu Qinshi's figure disappearing into the distance.

Or that remote courtyard
Linghu Chong was sitting in the yard right now, drinking a wine gourd with one hand, his swollen shoulder had subsided, obviously the injury had healed a lot.

Yue Lingshan said to Linghu angrily, "Brother, father said that you are not allowed to drink alcohol, your injury is still not healed..."

Linghu Chong smiled at Yue Lingshan and said, "Junior Sister, it's rare for the old master to go out to inquire about the news. The wine bug in my stomach is about to die of hunger. Just let me have a few sips."

Yue Lingshan reached out to snatch the wine gourd, but Linghu Chong dodged it, and when the two brothers and sisters were fighting, they heard a light cough.

The movements of the two stopped immediately, it turned out that it was Qian Li who came out from the room.

It seemed that after a night of rest, Qian Li's spirits improved a lot, he was not as embarrassed as before, but he was a bit more refined.

"Young Hero Linghu, Miss Yue! Qian is being polite."

Taking a light look at Qian Li, Yue Lingshan naturally didn't have a good impression of Qian Li. After all, it was the other party who caused her senior brother to be slapped by her father, and even more so to cause her senior brother to be injured. What a good face.

Although they are the sons and daughters of the Jianghu, but Yue Lingshan doesn't like each other, and she doesn't want to make things difficult for her senior brother. Seeing Linghu Chong winking at her, Yue Lingshan turned around and went back to the room with a coquettish snort.

After Qian Li waited for Yue Lingshan to return to his room, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he walked up to Linghu Chong, with a concerned expression on his face, and said, "Young Hero Linghu, I don't know how your injury is. What you said is that Mr. Master Yue said that your injury is fine, so I don't want to bother you."

Linghu Chong smiled casually, patted the shoulder that had subsided the swelling, and said, "Brother Qian is worried about you. It's just a small injury. It's nothing to worry about, but how is your injury, Brother Qian?"

Qian Li smiled and said, "Thanks to Master for giving me the healing medicine, I'm much better now."

Linghu Chong said with a smile: "Master is a person with a cold face and a warm heart. Sir is a scholar, and my tutor loves to read on weekdays. People in the Jianghu are called Junzijian, which not only means that the tutor is like a gentleman, but also refers to the knowledge of the tutor. Comparable to a gentleman."

Qian Li's eyes blinked, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he said with a smile: "I see, that's why I think that my teacher is as elegant and gentle as jade. I never thought that I'm also a scholar of my generation."

Linghu Chong said with a smile: "That's natural. There are many schools and sects with knowledge of family teachers, but few can compare with it. If the master is willing to take the examination for fame, he dare not say that he is a high school Jinshi, at least he can win a Juren .”

Qian Li said: "That's really a pity. The respected teacher is so knowledgeable that he has no intention of gaining fame in the examination. I, a scholar, have lost a great talent."

Linghu Chong laughed and said: "Sir, you don't have to worry, you just need to stay here. With us, even if people from Jin Yiwei come to the door, it is enough to guarantee your safety."

Qian Li was about to speak, when suddenly a majestic voice rang in Linghu Chong's ears: "Sinister, what did I tell you before I went out as a teacher, that you were injured, and you were still alive?" Dare to drink here."

Linghu Chong was taken aback, got up quickly and said: "Master, disciple..."

Yue Buqun snorted coldly, glared at Linghu Chong fiercely and said, "I'll settle the score with you bastard later."

As he said that, Yue Buqun's eyes fell on Qian Li, his eyes were full of indifference and even murderous intent.

Qian Li felt that Yue Buqun was looking at him with unfriendly eyes, and was startled. He didn't know why the other party went out for a trip, but after returning, he seemed to be a different person. Looking at the eyes that wished to kill him, Qian Li Li hurriedly saluted Yue Buqun respectfully, "Qian Li has met Mr. Yue."

As he spoke, Qian Li laughed and said, "Just now, Qian was listening to Linghu Shaoxia mention that Mr. Yue is proficient in the Four Books and Five Classics, and he is a man of great learning and great Confucianism. Qian..."

Yue Buqun frowned, and said with a sneer, "Qian Li, before Yuemou doesn't want to kill you, get the hell out of here immediately, like you are such a careless beast with bloody hands, don't say that Li Huan wants to kill you!" You, even Yue, wants to kill you with a single sword."

Linghu Chong on the side never thought that his master would be so angry, especially when he said that Qian Li should be killed, how could this not make Linghu Chong puzzled.

Qian Li's complexion changed, his face was full of puzzlement and grievance, and said: "Master Yue, what are you talking about, why can't I understand..."

With a bang, Yue Buqun slapped out his palm, and Qian Li was sent flying by Yue Buqun's slap. When he fell to the ground, a mouthful of blood spurted out.

Qian Li, who was full of horror, looked at Yue Buqun with murderous intent and couldn't help but scrambled and said: "Master Yue, I misunderstood, you must have misunderstood, young hero Linghu, please persuade Master what……"

Even Linghu Chong was confused by Yue Buqun's sudden actions, especially when Qian Li was slapped and flew away, Linghu Chong was stunned when he was awakened by Qian Li's shout. Seeing Yue Buqun walking towards Qian Li full of murderous intent again, he dodged in front of Yue Buqun and said, "Master, master, please stop, you were fine just now, why did you suddenly..."

Seeing Linghu Chong stand in front of him, Yue Buqun couldn't help saying angrily: "Scumbag, do you know who Qian Li is? His hands are covered with blood, he is not as good as a beast, and if he is not killed, it will not be enough for the common people to be angry..."

After hearing Yue Buqun's words, Qian Li's eyes flashed with panic, but his face was full of grievances and astonishment. He stepped back and said, "Slander, it's all slander. I'm a disciple of a sage in Qian's auditorium. I read sage books. After being taught by saints, how could you do such things that are inferior to pigs and dogs, and people and gods are indignant? This must be someone who has been slandered by Qian, Master Yue, don't be deceived and kill a good person unjustly."

Linghu Chong, who was standing in front of Yue Buqun, also rushed to Yue Buqun after hearing the words: "Master, Mr. Qian said, this must be slander, don't be impulsive, be deceived, and kill a good person by mistake. .”

Linghu Chong really felt Yue Buqun's murderous intent, he can guarantee that if he really steps aside, his master will definitely go up and slap Qian Li to death.

Yue Buqun looked at Linghu Chong, snorted coldly and said, "You scoundrel, you mean that your master and I don't know right from wrong, and others say what others say, are you so easy to deceive, master?"

Linghu Chong said anxiously: "Master, this disciple doesn't mean that. The disciple is just worried that Master will be cheated. Besides, Mr. Qian is handsome, he comes from an official family, he is a scholar, and he was hunted down by Jin Yiwei. How could he Is it the kind of villain who disregards human life and destroys people everywhere?"

Linghu Chong said again: "Master, where did you get the news that you will kill Mr. Qian as soon as you come back?"

Glancing at Qian Li who was hiding in the distance with a pale face, Yue Buqun felt a little regretful at the moment, why didn't he use all his strength in the palm just now, just kill him directly.

Why do you still want to let Linghu Chong understand his true face, so that he can teach Linghu Chong a lesson and let him remember that not everyone can be rescued randomly.

Yue Buqun said coldly: "The government has just issued a notice that at noon tomorrow they will assassinate imperial envoys such as the Qian family and the Gu family, and all those who intend to plot rebellion will be beheaded for public display."

"Ah, God damn Li Huan wants to destroy my Qian family, how vicious he is!"

Qian Li is not a fool. Since Li Huan wants to kill people, it is obviously impossible to kill only Qian Zhong and others, otherwise he would not order someone to copy Qian's family. Although Yue Buqun didn't say anything, Qian Li can also guess, Yi It may not be possible to destroy the nine clans, but it is certain for the three clans.

With some trepidation and fear, Qian Li looked at Yue Buqun and said, "Master Yue, is that traitor going to destroy my Qian clan?"

Yue Buqun sneered and said: "The crimes committed by your Qian family, in Yue's opinion, destroying your three clans is considered light."

Linghu Chong couldn't help but said anxiously: "Master, if a traitor like Li Huan slaughters hundreds of scholars at every turn, can he be believed? Not to mention whether the government's notice can be trusted, anyway, I believe that Mr. Qian must have been wronged."

Hearing this, Yue Buqun almost couldn't help but wanted to slap Linghu Chong again. Thinking of the white-haired and crazy Liu Qinshi, Yue Buqun looked at Linghu Chong's firm belief and insisted on stopping in front of him. , immediately sneered and said: "Okay, since that's the case, I will spare his life for the time being as a teacher, and tomorrow I will take you, a bastard, to the execution ground to have a look, and you also open your eyes wide, and give me a good look." Look, also listen to whether the people applaud or curse the government, if you still believe that the teacher has wronged him with money and gifts, the teacher will have nothing to say."

Linghu Chong breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words: "Master calm down, and tomorrow the disciple will go with you to see what the government has to say."

Yue Buqun snorted coldly and said, "Evil barrier, don't let me get out of the way."

Linghu Chong glanced at Qian Li worriedly, and quickly followed Yue Buqun. It seemed that he was really worried that Yue Buqun would suddenly kill Qian Li.

Yue Buqun sealed Qian Li's acupuncture points with one finger, swept his long sleeves away, and Qian Li flew into the firewood room beside him, and then said to Qian Li: "Tomorrow, my stupid apprentice sees your true face clearly. , Yue is here to take your life."

With a flick of his long sleeve, Yue Buqun glared at Linghu Chong and said, "You bastard, why don't you go back to recuperate."

Linghu Chong glanced worriedly in the direction of the firewood room, and then reluctantly went back to the room.

Yue Buqun walked into the room and said to Yue Lingshan, "Shan'er, show me your senior brother!"

Yue Lingshan looked at the angry Yue Buqun and couldn't help shrinking her neck and said: "Daughter knows."

Seeing Yue Buqun leave, Yue Lingshan couldn't help but looked at Linghu Chong worriedly and said, "Brother, why are you making father angry again? I don't think that person looks like a good person."

Hearing this, Linghu Chong couldn't help frowning and said, "Little Junior Sister, do you also believe what the government said? You know that Brother Qian was hunted down by Jin Yiwei's people, and Brother Qian is gentle and refined, how could he do such a thing?" Waiting for evil things, senior brother believes him!"

Yue Lingshan frowned and said: "Okay, big brother said yes, don't make father angry, go to the execution ground tomorrow to have a look, and then listen to what the people have to say, who is Qian Li? understand?"

Linghu Chong nodded and said: "Little Junior Sister is right, let's go to the execution ground tomorrow to see how many innocent people Li Huan will kill unjustly."

Yue Lingshan couldn't help pouting: "Brother, you..."

Linghu Chong smiled and said: "Okay, okay, let's not talk about this, you said what the old master brought us to Fuzhou, it has been a long time, the master leaves early and returns late, and is mysterious, ask him the old man , he didn't say anything."

Seeing Linghu Chong mentioning this matter, Yue Lingshan was also full of curiosity and said: "I also asked my father, but my father just refused to tell me."

in a courtyard

Li Huan was boxing in the spacious yard at the moment, a set of boxing techniques in Li Huan's hands did not contain the slightest smoke and fire, and looked light and ethereal, like a flower shelf.

The next moment, Li Huan's eyes flashed brightly, and when he punched out, he heard a thunderous explosion, which exploded the air.

A figure came over and saluted Li Huan respectfully: "My lord, all the confiscated property has been counted, please have a look at it, my lord."

Li Huan put away his fists, took a towel from a Jin Yiwei, wiped his hands, and then took the thick stack of account books handed over by Chen Yao

Sitting on the edge of the stone table, Li Huan flipped through the account book, and at a glance, it was as easy as a cup of tea. When he flipped through it to the end, Li Huan's eyes fell on the line of numbers.

590 eighty-nine thousand and forty-eight taels.

This is the total amount of gold, silver, jewelry and other items confiscated from more than [-] families. It does not include the confiscated antique calligraphy and paintings, land, shops, houses and other fixed assets.

I have to say that in this era, more than 500 million taels of gold and silver is definitely a shocking number. In fact, if you think about it, it is not surprising that so much wealth can be confiscated.

The Ming Dynasty implemented the policy of banning the sea, but the people banned by the imperial court were only ordinary merchants and common people. For these families with strength, background and ability, the policy of banning the sea became the umbrella for them to earn huge wealth .

In the coastal area of ​​Fujian, smuggling is rampant, maritime trade is prosperous, and interests are almost monopolized, and gold and silver wealth are rolling in like mountains and seas.

Li Huan even felt that he had confiscated more than 20 families that accounted for almost half of the maritime trade in Fujian Province, and only confiscated more than 500 million taels of wealth, which is a bit low.

Tapping lightly on the table, Li Huan glanced at Chen Yao and said, "Bring the pen and ink!"

Chen Yao handed the pen and ink that he had prepared long ago to Li Huan and said, "My lord, here are the pens and inks!"

Li Huan pondered for a while, looked at the account book, glanced at the figure of more than 500 million taels of gold and silver, then wrote down the words 500 million taels, and at the same time opened another booklet, looking at the densely packed Shops, land, and ships were sketched on them with pen and ink. After a while, tens of thousands of acres of fertile land, dozens of shops, and dozens of merchant ships were drawn.

Throwing the brush aside casually, he closed the account book and handed it to Chen Yao, "Transfer everything I sketched to Mrs. Li's name."

The corner of his mouth couldn't help showing a bit of a smile and said: "If your majesty knows, you won't think that I'm greedy, and then order someone to chop off my head!"

However, Chen Yao said with a smile: "Your Excellency, you are joking. It's not that your subordinates are talking too much. What is it that you intercepted privately? As far as I know, people like Mr. Xie Ge and Mr. Liu Ge are really corrupt." I don’t know how much wealth, such as Xie Ge’s old Xie’s family, his family is in Yuyao County, Shaoxing Prefecture, Zhejiang Province, and the fertile land alone occupies as much as 10,000+ mu. As for the shops opened throughout Jiangsu and Zhejiang, as for Liu Ge’s hometown It’s no worse than Xie Ge’s old age. I heard that there are hundreds of merchant ships smuggled at sea alone, and many of them are lucky ships that were lost by the navy..."

Li Huan sighed softly, it's not that he is noble, it's like this in this era, there is the Li family behind him, even if he didn't do anything in this big case of copying, no one would believe it.

To put it bluntly, even the Son of Heaven would not believe that he is really not greedy for a penny. It can even be said that he wants to make the Son of Heaven trust him, maintain the relationship between the monarch and his ministers, and be a man who is not greedy and does not take anything. The sage and gentleman, that is a big mistake.

Sometimes being greedy for money and being lustful is not necessarily bad. If someone sees that he is not greedy for money, not lustful, or loves power, and suspects that he has ulterior motives, the emperor can rest assured that he has a stain on himself, right?

Li Huan felt that he might as well defile himself a bit, and leaving the world with a greedy and lustful impression is not a kind of protective color, isn't it?
Based on the relationship between him and Zhu Houzhao, being greedy for money and lust is really nothing. Li Huan never worried that Zhu Houzhao would harm him. After all, with Zhu Houzhao's temperament, as long as he didn't take the initiative to rebel, Zhu Houzhao would live for a day I will rely on and trust him for a day.

Just when Li Huan's thoughts were wandering, Chen Yao smiled and put away the account book and said, "Don't worry, my lord, my subordinates will finish these things as soon as possible."

Li Huan nodded slightly and said: "Later, you go and send someone to invite me all the rich businessmen and powerful men in the city, and just say that Mr. Li has something to see them!"

Chen Yao was taken aback for a moment, naturally he didn't understand why Li Huan had to meet a group of wealthy businessmen and powerful people in his current status, but Chen Yao never discounted Li Huan's orders, he immediately nodded and said: "This subordinate will send someone to Please."

The Jiang family in Fuzhou City is a well-known family of wealthy merchants in Fuzhou. It has taken root in Fuzhou City for nearly a hundred years. Its ancestors gradually developed from a small shopkeeper to a wealthy merchant.

The Jiang family has almost monopolized the cloth business in Fuzhou City. It can be said that in the huge Fuzhou City, the Jiang family's cloth production accounts for more than half of the entire Fuzhou cloth.

Therefore, although the Jiang family said that it was not obvious in Fuzhou City, the family background was not bad at all.

The ups and downs in Fuzhou City in the past few days have suppressed Jiang Hong, the head of the Jiang family. Although no members of their Jiang family have entered the officialdom, they have weaved a big net in the form of in-laws.

Gu Huang's No.18 concubine is Jiang's daughter, and Qian Zhong's second wife is also Jiang's daughter, and even Dong Huan's wife is Jiang's daughter. It can be said that the Jiang family has no influence in Fuzhou City. No worse than those rich and powerful families.

Li Huan's operation of raiding his home caused a sensation in Fuzhou City. He thought that his family did not have any major crimes, and no one from his clan was imprisoned by Li Huan. Even when the various families called on scholars to besiege the government office, the Jiang family did not participate in it. But when Li Huan ordered the house to be ransacked, Jiang Hong, the head of the Jiang family, was still sick in bed in fright.

Both the Qian family and the Gu family were charged with treason. If Li Huan wanted to implicate the Jiang family in a big way, he might not be able to find a reason to implicate the Jiang family as well. So Jiang Hong hadn't thought about eating or drinking for the past two days. , the whole person's energy and energy almost collapsed.

"Master, master is not well, Jin Yiwei is here!"

In the middle of the room, a slender girl is wearing a moon-white double-breasted skirt with a waist, and the water-colored jasmine lightly opens the sleeves, and three thousand black silk is tied up in a loose cloud bun, like suet white jade. Holding a small white porcelain bowl with meat porridge in his hand, Su said to Jiang Hong, "Father, you haven't had water or rice for two days. If you don't eat something, your body will not be able to carry it!"

Jiang Hong looked at his favorite little daughter and couldn't help but shook his head and said, "There's no need to persuade Mo'er, I can't eat it for my father..."

Suddenly, the servant's terrified shout came from outside the room, Jiang Hong's complexion changed drastically, he stood up suddenly, and almost fell down in a flash.

Jiang Yuemo exclaimed, and quickly reached out to help, but the small white porcelain bowl containing the meat porridge fell to the ground and shattered into pieces with a thud.

At this moment, Jiang Hong stood firm with Jiang Yuemo's support, looked outside eagerly and said: "What's going on, what are the people from Jinyiwei here for? It's not because they want to confiscate..."

The housekeeper ran over out of breath, bowed to Jiang Hong and said, "Master, the people from Jinyiwei are here, they are in the front hall."

Jiang Hong's head slammed, and he almost fainted. He looked at the butler and said, "Quickly, what are the Jinyiwei people doing here?"

The butler shook his head and said, "The man didn't say anything, he just said he wanted to see you, Master."

Jiang Yue Mo Liu raised her eyebrows slightly, and said in a clear and sweet voice, "Jiang Bo, you said there was only one guard in Jinyi?"

Jiang Bo nodded again and again, "Returning to Miss, there is indeed only one person."

Hearing this, Jiang Yuemo smiled slightly at Jiang Hong and said, "Daddy, you can rest assured, if the imperial envoy really wants to implicate our Jiang family, then the team that came here at this moment will not be just one person."

Jiang Hong is obviously not a fool, needless to Jiang Yuemo, Jiang Hong had already reacted when Jiang Bo said that there was only one guard in Jinyi, took a deep breath, and said with a dignified expression. : "Take me there quickly."

Not to mention here that Li Huan sent people to notify the troubles caused by the rich businessmen and tyrants in Fuzhou City who were like frightened birds, but said that after a day of fermentation, the news that the imperial envoy Li Huan ordered the execution of Gu Huang and other officials and their relatives had already spread. whole city.

I don't know how many people were horrified, but they were also looking forward to the arrival of the next day, preparing to go to the execution ground to see the excitement.

Time passed in a flash, and the sky gradually dimmed.

Linghu Chong sat cross-legged in the middle of the room, meditating bored, and couldn't sit still for a while. He got up and took out a wine gourd from a corner, took a few sips secretly, and then put it away again.

There was a sound of footsteps. Hearing the sound of footsteps, Linghu Chong quickly sat down cross-legged, as if practicing meditation.

Yue Buqun, who was walking to the door, saw Linghu Chong meditating and practicing, his eyes flashed a hint of relief, and said: "Chong'er, master has something to go out, the Jinyi Guards outside are hunting the remnants of rebels, you and Shan'er stay here well , don’t cause any more trouble.”

Hearing this, Linghu Chong said hastily: "Master, this disciple will never step out of the courtyard, and will definitely accompany my junior sister to wait for you to come back."

Yue Buqun nodded when he heard the words, glanced at Linghu Chong, and immediately turned and left.

Soon Linghu Chong heard the sound of the courtyard door being closed. When Linghu Chong was sitting there, he heard the movement, and his face showed a bit of joy.

Immediately Linghu Chong turned over and got up to the door to look into the courtyard, and saw that the courtyard door had been closed, obviously Yue Buqun had already left.

[The first update is presented, a 2-word chapter, Chapter [-] will be a little later.According to my outline, I actually wanted Linghu to practice sunflower drops.
