Daming heir

Chapter 570 When the liquidation is in progress

Jin Wangfu.

Officers and soldiers are escorting the rebels to military camps in the city in an orderly manner.

The servants in Prince Jin's Mansion, wiping their brooms and dustpans, began to laboriously clean up and remove the stumped limbs and arms in front of the main hall of the palace.

Buckets of clean water were washed on the ground, splashing countless blood scum, as well as tiny pieces of meat and bones, which were carried into the surrounding ditches under the washing of the water, and finally flowed into the underground ditch with flowing water , until it finally flows into Fenshui outside Taiyuan City.

Zhu Jiye, the second son of the palace, was standing on the square with his hands in his hands and a knife hanging from his waist, looking at the busy crowd around him, with a worried expression on his face.

A small part of the well-endowed Prince Jin Mansion was invaded by rebels, and countless palaces were destroyed.

It's just that these are nothing, they just cost more money and food to rebuild.

This time in Taiyuan City, many houses had to be confiscated, and the holes could always be filled.

It's just that Zhu Jiye was a little uneasy, but when he turned his head, he saw the palace hall in front of him, which was guarded by many Jinyi guards.

At this time, on the steps in front of the hall, the previous army formation was no longer there, and the emperor's grandson, father and king, as well as those officials who were patrolling north, had also left.

The officials still have more things to do, and under the guard of the officers and soldiers, they will temporarily take over the yamen of Shanxi Road in Taiyuan City, and ensure that Shanxi Road can still operate normally after dawn tomorrow.

As for the cousin of the emperor's grandson, he had already entered the palace with his father and the king, along with Mr. Gao Ge and others.

After tonight, the situation in Shanxi Road will undergo earth-shaking changes.And everything will be decided in the hall in front of him.

A different Shanxi Road.

A smile appeared on the corner of Zhu Jiye's mouth.

Inside the hall.

Zhu Yunxie had put the long sword that had been fought all night into the scabbard, hung it on his waist, and put the palm of his left hand against the handle.

Beside him are Jin Wang Zhu Bian, cabinet minister Gao Yangzhi, Wang Xinling, Tian Mai, Sun Cheng, Ma Hongqing and others.

The Shanxi Taoist officials who were detained in the hall already knelt in front of Zhu Yunxi.

Under a thick pillar in a corner not far away, Liu Liang, commander of Shanxi Road, was tied up and leaned faintly on the pillar.

Although the people inside the palace couldn't see what was going on outside, from the beginning when the rebels came to the front of the palace, until the rebels from all over the city entered Jinwang's mansion, the sound of fighting has long since disappeared.

However, Zhu Yunxi, Zhu Wei and others appeared in front of people intact.

Outside the hall, what happened.

Everyone knows it.

The uprising of the rebels has been suppressed.

"Your Highness! I was wronged. I don't know anything. I didn't do anything."

"It's Changsun Gong and the others! It's them! Your Highness, they are the ones who forced me to do what they did. I dare not disobey."

"The minister has accounts, which are all the things that these elders, Sun Gong and the others forced the minister to do, and the benefits that the minister received from them."

"I have it too! I dare not spend a cent of the money I have received over the years! All the money is hidden in my house, in the cellar. It is useless for me, so I will take it out now."

"..."

Before Zhu Yunxi could open his mouth, the officials of Shanxi Road in the hall started to save themselves.

Without exception, except those officials who were not involved in the matters involving Changsun Gong and others, they claimed to know nothing.Almost all the officials present blamed Changsun Gong and others.

onto a dead man.

Zhu Wei and Gao Yangzhi tilted their heads and looked sideways, quietly watching Zhu Yunxi who hadn't spoken yet, waiting for the grandson of the emperor who held the power of the empire to make a decision.

Zhu Yunxi squinted his eyes, looking at the officials of Shanxi Province in front of him.

What happened in Shanxi Province this time is very different from the previous rebellion in Henan Province.

The rebellion that occurred in Henan Province at the beginning was caused by the local gentry class. Because they were dissatisfied with the reform policy of the imperial court and hurt their inherent interests, it led to chaos in Henan Province.

However, Shanxi Road is different. Because of the special reasons of Shanxi Road, almost none of the wealthy households here have benefited from the land.

People get rich by doing business.

Although the imperial court values ​​commercial tax now, in many places, commercial tax even exceeds the amount of the two taxes in summer and autumn.

But merchants are not unprofitable.

The rebellion in Shanxi Province this time was all due to the selfishness of these people.

Because of the undead evil spirit of the White Lotus Sect, because of the greed of Jin merchants trying to control the government, and because of the ambition of Shanxi officials to build China.

"Check, whoever commits crimes will be punished! The three clans will be dispatched to Yingzhou!"

Without too much hesitation, Zhu Yunxi quickly decided the fate and way forward of the officials of Shanxi Province.

With the implementation of public law examinations in Yingtian City, the last thing the imperial court fears is that no one will be an official.

As soon as the public examination was opened, it was truly the world's most talented people who entered the urn of Ming Dynasty.

After the spring of the new year, the imperial court will start the exam again. Right now, the officialdom of Shanxi Dao will be emptied, and when the spring of the next year begins, the imperial court will be able to fill these official vacancies one by one.

Sun Cheng has already got the order.

As the governor of Jinyiwei Beizhen Fusi, Sun Cheng now doesn't need to do things by himself most of the time.

He is just a look.

Zhang Hui, the Hundred Household Officer of the Jinyiwei who had quietly arrived here a long time ago, led the people to the Shanxi Taoist officials present with a cold expression on his face.

"Take it!"

Zhang Hui spoke coldly.

In the days after leaving Beijing, dealing with that idiot Zhu Yunqi every day has already made Zhang Hui overwhelmed.

Now that he can return to his old job, Zhang Hui can't help but look forward to it.

I just hope that the officials of Shanxi Province in front of me can be as tough as the people of Shanxi, and their bones can be tougher.

Jin Yiwei held up a famous Shanxi Road official.

A pair of flying fish suits shuttled through the hall.

Not long after, people could already smell a fishy smell in their noses.

Zhu Yunxi frowned slightly, and walked lightly to Liu Liang, the Commander of Shanxi Road who was still leaning against the red lacquered pillar.

He looked down at Liu Liang who was still fainting.

Not far from him, the dagger that stabbed Zhou Yunkun, Guo Yuchuang, and Changsun Gong to death successively lay beside him covered with blood.

"wake."

Zhu Yunxi spoke in a low voice.

Tian Mai, who had been following him all the time, stepped forward immediately.

Tian Mai slowly rolled up his sleeves, raised his hands and slowly turned his wrists.

Snapped.

A crisp sound.

Issued from Liu Liang's face.

Tian Mai had already put down her sleeves and stood up straight.

As for Liu Liang who was slapped, that half of his face immediately turned red and swollen.

Liu Liang, who was still in a coma, also slowly opened his eyes.

Liu Liang blinked his eyes, his eyes were a little distracted.

The pain in his body also made him writhe involuntarily.

when he raised his head.

Liu Liang's pupils shrank sharply, and he quickly prostrated himself on the ground.

He first raised his head and glanced at Zhu Yunxi standing quietly in front of him, then immediately lowered his head.

"Your Highness, I have already punished and killed the treacherous traitors Changsun Gong, Zhou Yunkun, and Guo Yuchuang for you! I also have evidence of crimes committed by the other three people in the past, and the account of their collusion with Shanxi Daojin merchants in private over the years to transfer benefits!"

Zhu Yunxi sneered: "You are in urgent need."

Liu Liang opened his mouth, his forehead was already on the ground: "I dare not, this is my duty."

Zhu Yunxi snorted coldly.

"Liu Junmen, do you think that you can offset your merits and demerits? Or do you think that by killing Changsun Gong and the others today, you have made credit for the court?"

Liu Liang reacted, his face was blank, and he raised his head in fear.

"Your Highness..."

"cut!"

Zhu Yunxi didn't give Liu Liang any more chances, he left a word coldly and turned around.

Beside Liu Liang, the two brocade guards had long been ready to attack, and as soon as Zhu Yunxie's words fell, the two of them were already like tigers pounced on Liu Liang.

"Your Highness! Your Highness!"

"The guilty minister begs His Highness to forgive you..."

"Your Highness!"

Liu Liang kept wailing.

With a single beheading, Li Liuliang's head can still be hung on his neck, so it doesn't take much time.

"Guo Yuchuang, the chief official of the third division of Shanxi Province and the chief envoy, who participated in politics, among the three clans, be punished!"

Zhu Yunxi, who had already walked to the gate of the hall, once again entered Liu Liang's ears with a cold voice.

Liu Liang, who was drooping his head, raised his head abruptly, his eyes widened, but his pupils were constantly slackening.

"what……"

Inside the hall, Liu Liang wailed.

It's just that no one will pay attention to the commander of the capital who was in charge of Shanxi's troops in the past.

outside the temple.

Zhu Yunxi rolled his hands together, hid them in his sleeves, and shrunk his neck.

"It's so cold."

He muttered something in a low voice, and once again small snowflakes floated in the night sky in his sight.

Zhu Bing folded his hands and walked to his side with a smile on his face: "After this snowfall, Shanxi Road and even the Nine Sides of Daming will truly be as solid as gold."

Zhu Yunxi opened his arms at this time, letting the wind and snow outside blow towards him.

"Then take advantage of the big snow, and clean up all the people and things that should be liquidated!"

Zhu Yan looked sideways at this nephew who was destined to inherit the Zhu family's great Ming, and said with a smile on his face, "You have to pay me a new Jin Palace first."

"How about my nephew building a city on the grassland for my third uncle?"

"...You have to pay for the travel expenses of your third uncle going home from now on!"

"Okay."

"That's good."

……

"This is the Li Mansion's compound. It's really rich and incomparable."

"Looking at the gate, looking at the carved beams and painted buildings, even the merchants in Suzhou and Hangzhou would not dare to make such a style."

When the rebellion inside and outside Jinwang's mansion was put down, the liquidation in Taiyuan City had already begun.

The Jinyiwei Baihu who led the team stared quietly at the Li Mansion compound with the closed gate in front of them, and their tone was teasing.

Behind him was a group of Jinyiwei officers and soldiers, as well as a large number of soldiers and horses of the Beijing Army.

"Baihu, let's start, or we won't be in time for dinner tomorrow morning."

The Chief Banner Officer reminded in a low voice.

The Baihu official nodded, his eyes sank, he nodded slightly, and pressed his right hand forward.

"Break the door!"

Following his order, the officers and soldiers who had been prepared for a long time immediately started trotting on the streets outside the Li Mansion compound, holding the wooden pillars that had been removed from nowhere.

The speed of the officers and soldiers continued to increase, stepped on the steps, and rushed to the gate of the Li Mansion compound.

The wooden stake hit the door heavily, making a heavy roar.

The whole gatehouse was shaking.

The officers and soldiers continued to exert their strength and began to hit the gate one after another.

at last.

Accompanied by a whimpering sound, the door of the Li Mansion compound collapsed backwards.

"kill!"

"Any traitors here will be killed!"

"Army Sima records military achievements, and no one is allowed to hide stolen goods without authorization."

Hundreds of Jinyiwei officials continued to issue military orders.

On both sides of him, groups of soldiers and horses drew their swords and rushed into the courtyard of the Li Mansion.

With a sneer on his face, the Baihu officer looked back at the chief banner officer.

The two smiled at each other.

We are all warriors, and we only know how to faithfully carry out the military orders of Shangfeng.

But because everyone is a warrior, the military order received is naturally to do the most important thing.

Naturally, I didn't see anything that could be shot to kill in case of resistance.

But the rebels cannot stay, but it is the consensus of everyone.

In order to prevent the imperial court from detaining too many criminals and increasing the consumption of money and food.

The officers and soldiers are naturally so happy.

A human head is a first-class military achievement.

The more heads you cut off, the more military achievements you have, and the closer you are to the king.

Even if you can't be a prince, at least you can be promoted to a few levels of official positions.

The officers and soldiers rushed into the Li Mansion compound like wolves and tigers.

As early as the beginning of the incident, the Li family had deployed a large number of guards in the mansion.

As the officers and soldiers rushed in, the two sides immediately fought.

On the tall building in the backyard of the Li Mansion.

Li Wenxiang's face was gloomy, and Li Bengan beside him was also ashamed.

The big housekeeper and the leader of the guards stood behind the two anxiously.

"Master, let's go! Go through the back door and hide first. We can escape from Taiyuan City when the limelight passes."

The butler reminded in an impatient tone.

Li Wenxiang kept sighing.

The movements of Prince Jin's Mansion in the distance are always in his sight.

Where did the soldiers and horses of the imperial court come from? It is still lingering in his mind.

The Li family has spent nearly 30 years in operation and layout, and everything is empty tonight.

The Li family has survived the chaotic times of the Yuan Dynasty and the turmoil of the early Republic of China. The foundation of the entire Li family's hard work is disappearing bit by bit before Li Wenxiang's eyes.

The steward looked at Li Wenxiang, who was calm and unresponsive, and became more and more anxious.

He looked at Li Bengan, and said in a low voice: "My lord! Let's go quickly, the soldiers and horses of the imperial court have already rushed into the mansion, if we don't leave, it will be too late."

Li Bengan was in a daze at the moment.

Before nightfall, he was still fantasizing that he might also be able to wear Zhu Yunxi's attire.

In order to protect himself, he and his father left hastily even after the feast at Jinwang Mansion, and went home early.

In order to avoid military disasters.

But now, it still hasn't been saved.

The steward looked at the father and son in front of him, gritted his teeth and looked back at the leader of the guards in the house.

"Take the master and the eldest son away!"

The steward let out a low growl, and immediately stepped forward, dragging Li Wenxiang from behind, and walked downstairs.

The guard leader also set up Li Bengan and followed behind.

Downstairs, there has long been a team of loyal Li family guards waiting for a long time.

Seeing the steward and the leader coming down with the master and the eldest son, everyone immediately surrounded and guarded them and rushed to the back door of Li's mansion.

The sounds of the officers and soldiers from the former mansion rushing into the mansion were heard continuously, making everyone feel terrified and panic-stricken.

Li Wenxiang and Li Bengan, father and son, were taken to the back door by the steward and guards.

At this moment, the father and son of the Li family have also regained their senses.

Looking at the quiet back door, a gleam of joy finally appeared on his face.

The back door was opened.

The Li family stewards and guard leaders who were walking in front trembled all over and kept retreating.

Outside.

A group of Jinyiwei officers and soldiers stared coldly at these people who wanted to escape from Li's residence.

A Jinyiwei Chief Banner Officer who led the team had cold eyes, waved his hand casually, and said in a cold tone.

"Our department encountered resistance from rebels."

"Follow the order, shoot to kill!"

On both sides of it, many Jinyiwei officers and soldiers who had been waiting for a long time rushed in with Xiuchun swords in hand.

"kill!"

It was just a charge, and the Li family's house at the back door once again regained its calm.

However, Taiyuan City is doomed to be impossible to calm down tonight.

The liquidation is still going on.
