Daming: After self-explosive time travel, Lao Zhu's mentality collapsed

"Damn, those aristocratic families and dignitaries? Do they really take the court seriously?" Chu Ze clenched his fists angrily, wishing he could find out the masterminds behind the scenes right now and fix them severely.

"My lord, please calm down. We have to discuss this matter in the long term." Li Xing advised.

"That's right, those aristocratic families are not vegetarians. If we act rashly, there will be nothing we can do without evidence." Yang Cai also agreed.

At this time, Zhao Si, who had just thrown those Taoist priests into prison, heard everyone talking, took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and said slowly: "Are we just watching the workers being bullied and the construction progress of the primary school being slowed down?"

Chu Ze looked around at everyone with firm eyes.

"Come here, go to the warehouse immediately to pick up some new equipment, tools, tools, etc., and transport them to the construction site. Also, each worker will be given a new set of tools so that they can work with peace of mind!"

"No!" The subordinate followed the order and left.

Yang Cai was a little worried and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, something like this just happened on the construction site. If someone happens again..."

"Don't worry, I'm here." A sneer appeared at the corner of Chu Ze's mouth.

"Li Xing, pick some highly skilled government officials, and from tonight onwards, they will ambush near the construction site every night. If there are any more gangsters who come to cause trouble, don't spare any of them, capture them all for me!"

"Yes!" Li Xing bowed and promised.

Early the next morning, there was a busy scene on the primary school construction site.

Chu Ze and others came to the construction site again to inspect.

New machinery and equipment are being shipped in continuously, and the workers are all very motivated.

Nearby, Li Xing arranged for elite government officers to be in place, checking suspicious persons near the construction site.

"Your Majesty, with the adults patrolling the area, I wonder if those people dare to cause trouble!" The foreman beamed with joy and saluted Chu Ze repeatedly to thank him.

Chu Ze waved his hand and told everyone: "If you encounter other people in the future, don't conflict with them. Report it to the government in time. The prince will support you."

"No! Thank you, Your Majesty! Your Majesty is our reborn parent!" The workers expressed their gratitude in unison.

Seeing everyone's high morale, Chu Ze felt a lot more relaxed.

"Li Xing, do you think those people will come again?" He asked in a low voice.

Li Xing shook his head and said hesitantly: "My subordinates are not sure. However, seeing that we are on guard, they should stop for a few days."

Chu Ze nodded in agreement, and then changed the subject.

"By the way, how are the injuries of the workers who were beaten? Are they serious?"

Li Xing hurriedly reported back: "Go back to the prince, they are all skin injuries, and they will recover after a few days of rest. My subordinates have ordered people to send each of them money, plus a new set of clothes. If they are upgraded to one level of salary, they will be guaranteed to do so in the future." Once your injury is healed, continue working for us!”

"Very good." Chu Ze nodded with satisfaction.

Chu Ze turned around and asked Zhao Si, how was the interrogation by the Taoist priests?

Zhao Si saluted and said in a low voice: "Prince Qi, those Taoist priests are very tight-lipped. My subordinates tried all their methods, but they just refused to confess. They just insisted that they didn't know anything, and they still said something plausibly, 'Qing Zhe'" "Zi Qing". The subordinates feel that the person behind them is probably a person with a very strong background. "

Chu Ze frowned and snorted coldly: "Hmph, a person who is innocent is clearly exonerating himself! Don't they think that by pretending to be deaf and dumb, the prince can do nothing to them?"

"Go to the government prison," Chu Ze said angrily.

After that, Chu Ze and his party went straight towards the government office. "Unlock!" Chu Ze shouted, and the jailer in the cell quickly opened the lock, fearing that the prince would be angry.

I saw Chu Ze striding up to a Taoist priest, his eyes so cold that it made people shudder.

"Who are you? Why are you obstructing the construction of the school? Who ordered you to cause trouble?" Chu Ze asked three times in a row, his tone was cold and biting.

The Taoist priest forced himself to calm down and gritted his teeth and said: "I don't know what the prince is talking about. The poor Taoist and others just came to ask for an explanation, and there is no harm. If the prince does not believe it, he can find out the details of the poor Taoist. How dare he deceive the government?"

"Ha, no malice? Do you think this king is a three-year-old?" Chu Ze sneered, narrowed his eyes, and looked him up and down.

"Come here, torture me! I want to see how long you can keep your words!" Chu Ze gave the order, and the jailer immediately pushed the Taoist priest to the ground and put on the shackles.

"Ah! My lord, please spare my life! This subordinate really doesn't know anything!" The Taoist priest shouted in horror, with large beads of sweat oozing from his forehead.

Chu Ze watched with cold eyes, unmoved.

Half an hour later, the Taoist priest was covered with wounds and was half dead.

Chu Ze asked someone to drag him forward again, and asked coldly: "Do you want to recruit now?"

The Taoist priest was weak and said calmly: "My lord, what do you mean? This villain is just following the order of the temple master. How have I offended you?"

"Acting on orders?" Chu Ze sneered and said, "Do you know who you offended?"

"Go to the primary school construction site to cause trouble, beat the workers, destroy equipment... You are openly defying the majesty of the imperial court! Are you trying to resist the decree?"

When the Taoist priests heard this, their faces changed drastically, and some even opened their eyes in horror.

"What...what do you mean by disobeying the order? I am just following the orders..."

"Shut up!" Chu Ze shouted, causing everyone's eardrums to buzz.

"That temple master is just a puppet! Who is really behind the scenes? You'd better recruit me from the truth, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!"

The other Taoist priests nearby were trembling with fear.

As he spoke, Chu Ze leisurely took out a dagger from his sleeve, the blade glowing coldly in the dark cell.

A younger Taoist priest was so frightened that his legs softened and he knelt on the ground with a thud, kowtowed repeatedly and begged:

"Your Highness, please spare me! I really didn't know anything. I just went to cause trouble because I listened to the temple master's words! I won't dare to do it again next time!"

Chu Ze looked at him coldly, kicked him away, and said coldly:

"You are a bunch of low-life birds, and you want to show off in front of me? Let me tell you, opening a primary school is a major event appointed by the Holy One! If you dare to come and make trouble, you are openly provoking Long Yan, and you are committing the following crime A heinous crime of death!”

"As for the people behind the scenes...heh, I'm afraid they haven't told you this, right?"

Chu Ze stood with his hands behind his hands and said in a solemn tone: "I have been ordered by the Holy One to supervise the construction of the primary school. If anyone dares to interfere with it, I will be the first to fight against him! Even if he is a relative of the emperor or a powerful family, as long as he If you are found to be involved in this matter, you can’t expect a good ending!”

The faces of all the Taoist priests turned pale when they heard this, and some were trembling with fear and begging for mercy again and again.

"Your Majesty...you guys don't mean to offend...it's just...just..." (End of Chapter)
