Chapter 101 Beauty pageant in the palace!Check food action!Food, a lot of food, but it pierced the sky!
"Weichen saw that Xiao Weizhen's servant violated the imperial edict and saved the Wu family teahouse!" Lu Zhong said anxiously.

It's kind of political.

But Xiao Weizhen was so obedient and helped Zhu Qiyu restrain Chen Dang, there was no need to take him into action.

"Your Majesty, this Wu family is from Shanxi merchants. They operate teahouses on the surface, but they are actually pawnshops!"

Lu Zhong gritted his teeth and said: "Your Majesty, this pawn shop is second to none in the black market. It is a gold-lettered signboard. It has released countless loan sharks to the outside world. I don't know how many people have been forced to sell their children and daughters."

Zhu Qiyu frowned, Jinshang and Xuanzhen.

This is what he always suspected.

"Your Majesty, I found out that this Wu family started out as a grain business, but now the main family no longer manages grain, but the branch is still doing grain business, um... do some cross-border grain business."

After Lu Zhong finished speaking, he knocked his head hard on the ground.

"smuggling?"

Zhu Qiyu became interested: "Speak carefully!"

"The head of the Wu family has five brothers, and there are fourteen branches in the branch. The branch is mainly engaged in the trade of grain, salt and iron. It makes money from the border, and then invests in the rich lands of North Zhili and South Zhili, earning a lot of money. "

"There are so many industries involved and abundant assets that it is difficult to estimate with numbers."

"My minister heard that the Wu family's backer in the court is Chen Xun. Chen Xun was able to develop the Chen party without hesitation, relying on the financial resources of Shanxi merchants, of which the Wu family contributed a lot."

"This Wu family has sponsored thousands of Jin scholars in Jin. There are no less than a hundred people who have passed the Jinshi exam. There are also people surnamed Wu who have changed their names, entered the officialdom, used money to make their way, and rose step by step."

"The Wu family and the Wang family are relatives by marriage. That night, Xiao Weizhen, the minister of the Honglu Temple, was sitting in the Wu family, and even the sons of Dongchang did not dare to enter the house."

"But Wang Shichen, the Patriarch of the Wang family, died at home. The fire in the house destroyed everything. According to Tiqi's report, there were also high-ranking officials in the Wang family that night."

"It is Zhao Rong, the left servant of the Ministry of Industry who disappeared in the court!"

Lu Zhong reported the truth.

Zhu Qiyu narrowed his eyes: "You know everything?"

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I want to find out the facts and report it to Your Majesty. I have no intention of hiding it!" Lu Zhong was terrified.

"Humph!"

Zhu Qiyu snorted coldly: "Why did I set up Tiqi?"

"Correct the world and set up goals for me!"

"It's good for you, you don't report what you know, and you deliberately conceal it, what's your intention?"

"Lu Zhong, I wanted to give you an ultimatum and let you go. From this point of view, I should just give you death!"

"Your Majesty, spare your life!"

Lu Zhong kowtowed like pounding garlic, and kept explaining.

"Come on, drag it out! Give me death!" Zhu Qiyu was too lazy to talk nonsense: "Pass the decree to..."

He wanted Dongchang to investigate, but Dongchang was the one who stole the money that night, so it would be better not to ask them to investigate themselves.

Jin Yiwei is sealing down Qinglou again. Tiqi, who had placed high hopes on it, died as soon as it was formed.

One general is incompetent and exhausts the three armies to death.

"Drag back!"

Zhu Qiyu's voice sounded like a fairy to Lu Zhong. He was already incontinent, and when he was dragged back, his whole body was limp, like mud.

Feng Xiao fanned the stench with a fan.

"Lu Zhong, because of your past loyalty, I will give you one last chance!"

Zhu Qiyu's eyes were as sharp as a knife: "Before tomorrow morning, I want to see the evidence of this Wu family's crime, as well as anyone implicated! Anything!"

"Which official went to the merchant's mansion to sit in charge that night!"

"Why go to town?"

"What is their relationship?"

"Why didn't Dongchang investigate? Why didn't Jinyiwei report?"

"Everything, everything I should know, you have to find out for me!"

"Tomorrow morning, if I can't see what I want to see, there is no need for you to live. I will give you Ling Chi, and there is no need for Tiqi to exist. They will all be killed!"

Zhu Qiyu was worried that Lu Zhong would not understand, so he spoke clearly.

He wants, the person he wants to catch!
I hope Lu Zhong understands and don't foolishly catch those obedient dogs.

And catch those disobedient guys, let them taste my power!

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for not killing me! I must have done a good job!" Lu Zhong wept bitterly.

"get out."

Zhu Qiyu was very dissatisfied.

Lu Zhong definitely can't be the chief officer of Tiqi, he has to find a new candidate, Tiqi should have the backbone of Tiqi!
Don't be infiltrated into a sieve like the previous factory guards!
However, Zhu Qiyu was also very dissatisfied with this factory guard operation, but this cannot be blamed on Shu Liang and Jin Zhong. After all, the number of people they control is small, and it will take some time.

"My lord, the servants and servants of the Wu family have also heard of it." Feng Xiao said in a timely manner.

"Ok?"

Zhu Qiyu tilted his head and looked over: "When did you hear about it?"

"I heard from Eunuch Jin that many of the objects in the palace were sold to a pawnshop called Shanlintang. The owner behind Shanlintang is the Wu family in Yizhou."

Zhu Qiyu nodded, but changed the topic: "Didn't Shu Liang say that all the pawnshops were robbed? All the merchants in Beijing and China are dead? Why is there such a fish that slipped through the net of the Wu family?"

Feng Xiao's face changed, and he knelt on the ground in fright, not daring to answer.

"And that Zhao Rong, from Lu Zhong's words, seems to be killed by Dongchang, but why didn't Shu Liang report it?"

Zhu Qiyu's tone turned cold: "Your godfather, after all, mud can't support the wall, and he doesn't even know what shit his subordinates have done?"

"Decree, reprimand him, let him examine himself, tell him, what's the use of keeping a disobedient dog?"

"Slave obeys the order!" Feng Xiao heaved a sigh of relief.

The only thing that comforts him is that the emperor still trusts Shu Liang.

"Give him the two copper talismans with no names engraved on them, and I will give him the right to clean the East Factory. Make it more beautiful, don't be timid!"

The corners of Feng Xiao's mouth curled up, the emperor was hard-spoken and soft-hearted, and he was swearing fiercely, but he was reminding Shu Liang how to rectify the East Factory, showing both kindness and majesty.

Looking at Feng Xiao's back, Zhu Qiyu murmured to himself: "It turns out that the Shanxi merchants supported Chen Xun. No wonder the Oirats came at the beck and call! But how can we make the Oirats retreat?"

"Who are Shanxi merchants supporting now?"

"Xuanzhen suffers successive defeats, is it because Shanxi merchants are the only ones behind it?"

"Who else was involved?"

"What exactly do the Oirats want?"

"Without a goal, you will not fight. Just like the defeat of Tumubao eight years ago, isn't it because the Oirats want to reopen the border trade? They won, and the border trade opened. What about this time?"

"Equivalent to Qian's victory in a battle, it's time to talk, let's make some concessions, Daming is too weak."

"If the fight continues, it will become a joke of the Celestial Dynasty."

"What's the difference between me and the Supreme Emperor, ha ha."

"It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge in ten years."

"Next time, I will personally go out and wash Mobei with blood!"

Zhu Qiyu tapped his arm with his fingertips, and sneered suddenly: "Maybe I'm just talking big words. If I fight again next time, maybe I will sign a treaty to mourn. Power. Humiliate. The country! To be the emperor of the Central Plains, even Song Gaozong Why not!"

"The cleansing is not enough, I will clean the capital again, clear out all the things that shouldn't exist, and then train soldiers!"

"We must keep the Oirats at Juyongguan, and we must train soldiers of the fortress!"

Zhu Qiyu's eyes were firm: "I will kill whoever blocks me!"

After a long time, he came out from the shadows and opened the door: "Show Chengqian Palace."

Look at the ladies who entered the palace today, how good are they?

……

In Qunfang Pavilion.

The most majestic building was filled with screams one after another.

In the magnificent hall on the first floor, men and women lined up on both sides.

Those rich and powerful sons and brothers are trembling at the moment.

In the middle of the hall, there was a chair, and Jin Zhong sat on it: "Chop it up, chop it up if you don't say anything!"

"I really don't know anything!" The old bustard's palms were bald, and all ten fingers had been chopped off.

"Playing rogue with our family?"

Jin Zhong sneered: "Waiting for your backstage to rescue you?"

"Don't dream, our family is the eunuch Jin Zhong, the admiral of Jinyiwei, who belongs to the emperor!"

"My lord, do you know that the person sitting in the sky of Daming is my lord!"

"What kind of background do you dare to come to our house to catch people?"

"Our family wants to see it! Does he dare to come?"

He stood up slowly, and randomly pointed to a wealthy young man: "Is it his family?"

puff!
When that young master was stunned, his head was chopped off!

Together with all the young masters screaming, all of them were terrified, they lost their lives after listening to a tune, they were really terrified.

Even if he was really killed, his family would not dare to fart.

Because, the one who killed them was Jin Zhong, the famous man beside the emperor!

"Eunuch Jin, Eunuch Jin, I don't know anything, don't kill me!" A young man was so frightened that he couldn't see his shit.

Jin Zhong smiled at him: "Tell the bustard, whose son was the one who was killed just now?"

"Yes, he is the son of the Minister of Criminal Justice!"

"Our family will read his father's book. When the princess passed away, he didn't want to serve the country and share the worries for His Majesty. He actually indulged his son indulging in doggy and sound. What is His Majesty doing? It should be killed!"

Jin Zhong's gaze was like lightning, scanning all the young masters.

The sons and brothers are weak all over, if the official position and title of the father are lost, the father will definitely beat them to death, and the mother will not be able to protect them.

Most of them are concubines in the family, they have no intention of official career, and they cannot inherit the family business, so they indulge in Goulan tile houses and become happy playboys.

But I don't want to, when I am happy, my life is gone!

A boy got up from the ground, slapped a girl on the face, and shouted, "Say! Where are you hiding her! Tell me!"

"I don't know...uh!"

That young master choked her tightly, forcing her to speak out!
The girl seemed to be out of breath.

Song Tang wanted to take care of it, but Jin Zhong waved his hand and told him to choke. Anyway, there are many girls, so if they choke, they will be choked.

Soon, the sister was strangled to death, and the young master looked at the other girl with a vicious expression on his face!
"No, don't kill me!" The sister trembled in fright: "I say!"

"Say!" The young master wanted to pinch her.

But Song Tang kicked her into the air, brought the woman up in front of Jin Zhong, and knelt down on her knees.

"Speak." Jin Zhong's eyes flickered.

"In the bright caravan!" The girl was terrified, as if she had mentioned a great person.

Jin Zhong felt very strange, and looked at Lu Qian. Lu Qian was a fast hand in Shuntian Mansion and knew the capital very well.

"Back to Admiral, the Liangma Gang is active on both sides of the Liangma River. It is a small gang." Lu Qian replied.

"Gang?"

Jin Zhong frowned: "Lu Qian, take Jin Yiwei to arrest, those who dare to obstruct him will be punished as treason and killed directly!"

But how dare such a small gang accept so many women?

It seems that there is a big fish behind.

"Tell our family, who opened this Goulan Courtyard?" Jin Zhong asked the sister.

"The servants don't know!"

Jin Zhong pointed at the son-in-law: "Come here, strangle her to death!"

"The slave family really doesn't know!"

The boy crawled over like a dog and grabbed the girl by the neck.

When she was about to lose her breath, she roared: "My family only knows that I am called Lu Erye!"

As soon as this remark came out, the face of the old bustard in Qunfang Pavilion changed drastically.

"Second Master Lu? What kind of stuff deserves to be called a master?"

Jin Zhong smiled and looked at the bustard: "Tell me, who is Lu Er?"

Seeing that she couldn't hide it anymore, the old bustard cried, "Second Master Lu is the steward of Anyuanhou's Mansion!"

"Marquis Anyuan? Liu Pu?"

Jin Zhong smiled: "What kind of person do we think we are? Guan Yao, go and seal up the mansion of Marquis Anyuan, and let Marquis Anyuan come over to see our family!"

As soon as these words came out, Qunfang Pavilion trembled.

Jin Zhonggan is the one who regards Xungui as a pig and dog.

"Report to Admiral, Marquis Anyuan is not in Beijing, but still in Guangxi." Guan Yao replied.

"Let the masters come, and you lead people to blockade the Anyuanhou's mansion, no one is allowed to go out, no one is allowed to enter, and anyone who disobeys the order will be beheaded!" Jin Zhong sneered.

Liu Pu, Liu Pu, the emperor wanted to find a chance to deal with you, but he jumped out by himself.

This Liu Pu is from Zhu Qizhen!
However, a mere Marquis of Anyuan can't cover this Qunfang Pavilion.

The Marquis of Anyuan didn't have the guts to hide grain privately.

During the waiting process, Jin Zhong showed a smile on his face: "Where have all the oirans gone? Come out to dance, they all say that Qunfang Pavilion is the number one villa in Beijing, and it is home to the top ten oirans in the world, which also opened our family's eyes."

"Reply, reply to the admiral's words, the old birthday star of Cheng Guogong's mansion celebrated his birthday and recruited all the oirans away!" The old bustard replied.

"Is Zhu Yi's mother celebrating her birthday? Why doesn't our family know about it? Mrs. Pingyin's birthday, why didn't you report to our family?"

Jin Zhong suddenly drew his knife, and killed the old bustard with one blow.

"Full of lies!"

"The princess passed away, who dares to celebrate her birthday? Is Mrs. Pingyin impatient? Or Zhu Yi is tired of living!"

"Besides, the dignified Mrs. Pingyin, the wife of King Wumin of Pingyin, how could she invite a group of sent sons for her birthday? Isn't it embarrassing enough?"

Jin Zhong was splashed with blood all over his face: "Come here, go and invite Mrs. Pingyin!"

Cheng Guogong cannot fall, apart from the need for British Duke and Cheng Guogong to stabilize people's hearts, Zhu Yi's wife is Hu Wei's daughter!
But what the old bustard said was brilliant, and he handed over Hu's handle to Jin Zhong.

What is the emperor going to do?
Turning a disobedient person into an obedient dog, this is just a trick!

As for who bought the refugee girl, whether she was dead or alive, the emperor didn't care at all.

He only cares about two things, taming the court and finding more food.

Everything else doesn't matter.

Sitting down again, Jin Zhong knew in his mind that behind this blue building, it should be Cheng Guogong's mansion, and Marquis Anyuan should have taken the shares.

From this point of view, Marquis An Yuan is from the lineage of Duke Cheng.

Continue to pull carrots and see how many people can be brought out.

"What's your name?" Jin Zhong asked the young master.

"Returning to the admiral, the late student's name is Yu Qinyu!"

"Who is Yu Shiyue to you?"

"It is the late father!"

Jin Zhong looked at him with interest, "Did you pass the Juren exam?"

"Replying to the admiral, the late student has passed the exam and is preparing for this year's examination." Yu Qinyu replied respectfully.

"That's right, let's follow our family for the time being, and experience a little bit. Our family will introduce you to the palace to meet the emperor, and you will be honored by the emperor's favor, which will be more honorable than your admission to the imperial examination." Jin Zhong found that Yu Qinyu is a malleable talent, especially the son of a civil servant. .

Civil officials want to control the emperor, why don't eunuchs not want to control civil officials?
Jin Zhong also wanted to tame civil servants into dogs.

"This..." Yu Qinyu regretted showing his indebtedness.

He is Yu Shiyue's legitimate son, he should have a serious career, how could he join Jinyiwei?

If his father finds out, he must not be beaten to death.

"Forget it if you don't want to, just go and kneel." Jin Zhong didn't care about such a small role at all, and he didn't even pay attention to his father Yu Shiyue.

Seeing Jin Zhong's wink, Yu Qinyu immediately kowtowed: "Thank you, late student, for the promotion!"

"It's a good seedling." The corners of Jin Zhong's mouth curled up.

Indeed, Yu Qinyu is more fawning than his father Yu Shiyue.

Yu Shiyue can also flatter, but she often flatters the horse's legs, and her luck is not good.

Those group of princes and buddies, some people envy, some people disdain, the son of a dignified civil servant, but he is a dog for the eunuch, it is despicable.

After half an hour, Lu Qian escorted some wounded men in.

The girl exclaimed, and it was Chen Si, the leader of the Liangma gang, who was escorted in by Lu Qian.

"Report to the admiral, and found 120 women in the Liangma Gang!" Lu Qian reported.

"What about the rest?"

Jin Zhong didn't ask, what will happen to these women, it will definitely not be very good.

"Undermark not found!"

Jin Zhong pointed to Chen Si: "Eunuch first, then ask questions!"

The eunuch's method is very clumsy, one person pulls another person and uses a knife.

Everyone sees it clearly.

The super boss in the eyes of the sisters in the Goulan courtyard was eunuched like a dead dog, and then dragged before Jin Zhong.

"Help me, save me..." Chen Si begged for mercy vaguely.

"This kind of pickled goods, what kind of gang do you have?"

Jin Zhong sneered: "Tell me, who is behind it? Our family is not interested in your sesame mung bean gang."

"No, dare not say it!" Chen Si's tricks were very bright, he recognized Jin Zhong's official uniform at a glance, and knew that he had fallen this time.

"Eunuch everyone else, if you want to die, just say so, otherwise you will all be eunuched and fed to the dogs."

Jin Zhong pointed to the thing that was cut off: "Throw it out and feed it to the dog."

Qunfang Pavilion was filled with awe.

No one thought that the famous Liangma gang in the Jianghu would not even be as good as a fart in front of Jin Zhong.

This is power!
True power!
"It's the Marquis of Anyuan, it's the Marquis of Anyuan!" Some gang members were afraid of being eunuched, so they spoke out.

"Is it Liu Pu again?"

Jin Zhong suddenly yelled: "Has the Anyuanhou's family not come yet? Where did they die? Send an order, let our family wait for a cup of tea, and our family will kill one of the Anyuanhou's family! Don't play tricks with our family, Jin Yiwei is doing business, how dare he ask Jin Yiwei to wait?"

Chen Si looked at Jin Zhong stupidly.

In his eyes, the man who stands above the sky is Marquis Anyuan. Even, he has worked for Marquis Anyuan's mansion for many years, and he has never met Liu Pu at all. He has always dealt with his sons.Usually, when he saw An Yuanhou's son, he had to kneel to answer, and he never stood up.

But in Jin Zhong's eyes, Marquis An Yuan is not as good as a dog!

This is power!

In the eyes of the rich and powerful, the heroes in the world are probably just a bunch of hooligans.

Chen Si laughed foolishly, laughing at how idiotic he was.

Squeak!

At this time, the door of the Qunfang Pavilion was pushed open, and a young and handsome young man walked in: "Junior Liu Chengkuan, see Eunuch Jin!"

Liu Chengkuan is the fifth son of Liu Pu, a concubine, and respectful to Jin Zhong.

"Do you know him?" Jin Zhong was too lazy to talk nonsense.

"I know, this is Chen Si of the Liang Caravan."

Seeing that Jin Zhong didn't speak, Liu Chengkuan quickly explained: "This junior relied on the power of his father and brother to set up a small gang for fun. He didn't want to offend Jin Yiwei. Please forgive me, father-in-law!"

Jin Zhong glanced at Liu Chengkuan, this kid is not easy to deal with.

He asked again: "Is this brothel also your family's property?"

"If you go back to your father-in-law, it's not the family's property, but the younger generation and Zhu Zhen agitated it in their spare time. It can't be on the stage, so it hasn't been made public."

Zhu Zhen is the second son of Zhu Yi.

Jin Zhong immediately opened his eyes, what a wonderful person!

Liu Pu gave birth to a good son!
This Liu Chengkuan, knowing that our family is collecting handles into the Duke's Mansion, actually took the initiative to send it up!

What a wonderful person.

Jin Zhong deliberately asked again: "Is it your order that the Liangma Gang buy women from refugees?"

"It was instructed by the younger generation and Zhu Zhen. Since it is a green building, it naturally needs some beautiful colors. It is not common for the refugees to have good looks. This is a serious business. Please don't blame your father-in-law."

Liu Chengkuan answered impeccably, but secretly brought Zhu Zhen in.

"Then what did you buy the woman with?"

"food!"

Liu Chengkuan knelt on the ground, with endless regret on his face: "The younger generation stole the food stored at home, and took the opportunity to buy some women to come in."

smart people!
Jin Zhong admired this kid a little bit.

"How much food do more than two thousand women need? Will Mr. Liu do the math?"

Jin Zhong stood up and brushed off the dust on his body: "Take it back to the Imperial Prison and interrogate it!"

"The juniors are willing to cooperate."

Liu Chengkuan actually kowtowed, very cooperative.

It is comfortable to deal with smart people.

Jin Zhong spent a lot of trouble, didn't he just want to collect handles for the Duke's mansion.

Why?

Hu Yi chant.

The wife of Cheng Guogong Zhu Yi is the daughter of Hu Mu, and Zhu Zhen is Hu Mu's grandson.

If the emperor wanted Hu Min to be obedient, he had to hold him accountable.

Then, in the court, tame everyone into dogs.

Liu Chengkuan is smarter, he can see Jin Zhong's purpose at a glance, and actively cooperates, it may not be Liu Pu's intention to take refuge in the emperor.

"The Qunfang Pavilion was sealed up, and the woman was taken to jail!"

Jin Zhong asked Guan Yao and the other three to lead a team to seal up all the brothels in Beijing, and bring all the women to prison.

……

Chengqian Palace.

Zhu Qiyu received Jin Zhong's report, and the corners of his mouth turned up: "Zhu Yi, Liu Pu, I have caught your pigtails."

"It also involved Hu Min, wonderful, haha!"

"Jin Zhong did a good job. If you urge Jin Zhong again, there must be clues for so much food. Continue to investigate and dig deeper!"

According to Tang Guifei's report, more than fifty officials' daughters entered the palace today.

She arranged for these women to come over one by one and let the emperor see the color.

Zhu Qiyu leaned on his head and lay on the bed, letting the daughters of the officials' families walk by one by one.

After each one, Feng Xiao said the name and family status beside him.

"That Hu family is good!"

Zhu Qiyu looked at a young but generous girl in green clothes, who was Hu Changning's prostitute.

"What's your name?" Zhu Qiyu tilted his head and asked Feng Xiao.

"Reporting to the emperor, his name is Hu Guiju." Feng Xiao replied.

This name made Zhu Qiyu laugh, Ju...

He tilted his head and took a look: "Stay in Qianqing Palace to serve."

Hu Wei is sensible, and he reciprocates, so he can't let the granddaughter of the old master Fu pour the bucket of respect.

When Hu Yan is disobedient, I will torment your granddaughter.

Zhu Qiyu is full of evil tastes, admiring the daughter of all officials.

Take their appearance and compare it with their father to see if they are their own.

The family is high and the court is deep, who doesn't have any bullshit, those courtiers are so old, and they have married so many wives, it's strange that there is no color in the family.

As a result, the more I watched, the more disappointed I was, and there was nothing amazing about it.

He left the daughters of important officials in the court to serve in the Qianqing Palace, and filled the others in the palaces.

There is a girl who is quite scheming.

She was dressed a little more revealingly, and dressed up coquettishly, but compared to the coquettish sluts in her previous life, she was far behind.

Moreover, she was a bit poor-looking, her skin was a little dark, and the hair on her arms was a little heavy, so Zhu Qiyu didn't like it.

She is Lin Cong and her granddaughter, named Lin Yu.

Also stay in Qianqing Palace to serve.

"Your Majesty, do you want to stay in bed?" Tang Guifei asked quietly, referring to Lin Yu.

"You're only a teenager, and your hair is so heavy, won't it be more hairy than mine when you grow up? Forget it, let's put it in the palace and be a rough envoy."

Zhu Qiyu's mood is waning, shouldn't all the ladies of the official family be beauties?

Why this color?
I thought it was an amazing beauty pageant, but in the end, I might as well not watch it.

Disappointed.

"Clean up the Yonghe Palace and let Mrs. Tan move in."

Zhu Qiyu made up his mind and accepted Tan Yunxian.

I was not in a hurry at first, but after seeing so many unappetizing ladies from Beijing and officials, I found that Tan Yunxian was still beautiful, which made people's index fingers twitch.

"Your Majesty, if everyone is stunning, wouldn't it exhaust you?"

Concubine Tang made fun of the emperor.

"Isn't it enough for me to raise my eyes?"

Concubine Tang Gui laughed: "The palace also needs to do rough work, not to mention that after a few years of hard work, you have to be released from the palace."

"Right."

Zhu Qiyu smiled and said: "It's just that the eunuchs have suffered a lot. In the future, they won't be able to find court maids to match. These ladies from the official family may not be liked by the champion, so how can they like eunuchs?"

Concubine Tang covered her mouth and smiled: "Why don't Your Majesty give the eunuchs a marriage."

"Stop it, I don't want to bear the eternal infamy, they should solve it by themselves." Zhu Qiyu was overjoyed, who knows how the eunuch can solve it by himself.

Sleep with clothes on.

……

Lu Zhong who left the palace had red eyes.

"Stare your fucking eyes, if I don't see the sun tomorrow, you all have to die with me!"

Lu Zhong led Tiqi and kicked down the gate of Wu's house first.

"My lord, this is from the Patriarch!" The housekeeper of the Wu family took out a handful of silver.

But he was kicked over by Lu Zhong, pointing to the scar on his forehead: "Did you see that, His Majesty beat you!"

"Next time, Your Majesty will take my head!"

"Money is for nothing! Take me to find your master!"

Lu Zhong asked people to guard the gates, block the news, and kill those who dared to go out.

Wu Zheng is in his fifties this year. He is the head of the main sect. The smartest part of the Wu family is the five branches of the main sect and the fourteen branches of the branch, scattered all over the country.

The main one in Beijing is Wu Zheng's branch, along with Wu Sidao and Wu Siming.

"Boss Wu, do you know me?" Lu Zhong entered the hall with a knife in his hand.

"Naturally, Lord Tiqilu."

Wu Zheng had a friendly attitude: "My lord, please take your seat..."

Lu Zhong directly put the knife on his neck: "Your fart, don't talk too much, what did I ask you? Don't talk nonsense! I don't have time!"

"Who was a guest at home the night before yesterday?"

Wu Zheng's complexion changed, and he wanted to get close, but Lu Zhong pressed the blade into his neck, and blood protruded, which frightened him.

"Don't, don't be like this, it's Xiao Weizhen, Master Xiao! I'm good friends with Master Xiao..."

Lu Zhong continued to press the blade, and more blood flowed.

Wu Zheng didn't dare to speak anymore.

"What does the officer ask, what do you say, if you don't ask, don't say it!"

Lu Zhong hated himself, he wouldn't do anything to kill someone with an imperial decree, what else would he do?
No wonder His Majesty is furious, he deserves it!

"Yes, yes!" Wu Zheng was terrified.

"The night before yesterday, was there any disaster in your home?" Lu Zhong asked again.

"Yes, there were rebels attacking the mansion, and they were repelled by the servants! Ah!"

Wu Zheng screamed again: "I'm not lying!"

His throat was cold, and more blood flowed.

"Why didn't I see any traces of attack?"

"That night, someone knocked on the door and then backed out. Are you blind?"

"Open your dog eyes and see, who is this officer?"

"It's Lu Zhong!"

Lu Zhong was furious!
I am even more stupid, why should I help this kind of thing cover up?
That night, he was outside the door and took benefits from his family, otherwise how would he know such details!

"Come on, kill Wu Zhengyi!" Lu Zhong roared.

When Wu Zheng was still dumbfounded, he saw You Tiqi throwing his head on the ground. That was his seventh son, his favorite son!

Wu Zheng didn't dare to cry, for fear that his throat would be cut and he would die too.

"Say!"

"Yes yes yes, Zhang Yongnian, the school captain of Dongchang, came to the mansion that night. Because Mr. Xiao was there, he retreated, and I gave him the title deed of a thousand acres of fertile land!" Wu Zheng cried.

"Write it down!" Lu Zhong said to his subordinates.

Then he asked again: "What's the relationship between Xiao Weizhen and you? Why do you want to protect you?"

Wu Zheng didn't dare to hide it, saying that his backer was Chen Xun, and Xiao Weizhen was Xiao Weizhen after Chen Xun died, so Xiao Weizhen protected him.

"what!"

Before he finished speaking, Wu Zheng screamed, and blood burst from his neck.

It's almost down to the throat, any more, and he's dead!
"I'm telling the truth!" Wu Zheng roared.

"fart!"

Lu Zhong sneered: "What kind of thing is Xiao Weizhen? It's just the minister of the Honghe Temple. What can he help you? Can you help you transport the grain to Wala?"

"No, absolutely not!" Wu Zheng was terrified.

"I will give you one last chance, let's talk after you think about it!" Lu Zhong was too lazy to talk nonsense.

"It's Li Xian, it's Li Xian!"

Wu Zheng couldn't hide it anymore, and he didn't dare to hide it.

Lu Zhong pondered for a while, Li Xian is possible, let people remember it.

"Where is Wang Shichen?"

"We are also Li Xian's people! We are all Li Xian's people!" Wu Zheng was too scared to hide it.

"Who else?"

"The Yu family and the Huang family are all from Li Xian!" Wu Zheng sold everything.

"All Jin merchants belong to Li Xian?"

Wu Zheng nodded, but because of too much force, more blood flowed out.

Seeing him is fairly honest.

Lu Zhong put down the knife, looked around, and asked casually, "Has your pawnshop been robbed?"

"It's been robbed, and there's nothing left." Wu Zheng didn't dare to lie.

"Why didn't you go to Shuntian Mansion to appeal for grievances?" Lu Zhong sat on the main seat, and asked the servants to serve tea, and also drank the high-quality tea.

"Don't dare to go down."

"With Li Xian's backing, why not dare?"

Lu Zhong seemed to be talking homely, and asked his subordinates to taste tea, and the atmosphere became inexplicably relaxed.

"I dare not trouble Mr. Li Ge."

Lu Zhong nodded: "There are refugees everywhere in Gyeonggi, have you made a lot of money?"

"No, no, I believe in Buddhism and dare not earn money without conscience for fear of retribution."

Wu Zheng put himself out of the way: "But the business of the Wu family branch, I, the head of the family, can't control it."

"Wu Sidao and Wu Siming brothers did it all?" Lu Zhong smiled.

Good deeds are your own, let the branch bear the blame.

Wu Zhengzheng showed embarrassment, covering his neck with his hands, and the blood continued to flow out, but he could only bear it and dared not seek a doctor.

"Didn't you buy any women at home recently?"

"no no……"

Before Wu Zheng finished speaking, he suddenly noticed that Lu Zhong's face was gloomy, and suddenly screamed, he was kicked far away by Lu Zhong, and fell to the ground hard.

"You're fucking fooling me!"

Lu Zhong put the knife on his neck: "Isn't your family a serious businessman? The pawn shop was robbed? Why don't you go to Shuntian Mansion to complain?"

"Also, brothers Wu Sidao and Wu Siming are obviously grain merchants, why are they not dead?"

"You fucking believe in Buddha! I advise you to believe in Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva!"

As he spoke, he slashed fiercely on Wu Zheng's stomach.

One stab can't kill you, it just hurts.

"I'll give you one last chance, to tell the truth!"

Lu Zhong put the knife on his neck: "Kill another son, go!"

Wu Zheng gritted his teeth.

Once it is said, it will not be the death of a son, but... the entire Shanxi merchant group will die!

"If he doesn't speak, he will continue to kill!"

Lu Zhong is crazy, because if he can't find out, the emperor will kill him, it's not a joke!
But at this moment, Xiao Weizhen came to the door.

Looking at the mess in the hall, my heart sank.

"Lord Xiao came just in time!"

Lu Zhong's canthus cracked: "He has a secret. I killed several of his sons, but he didn't tell them! Mr. Xiao, you sat in his house that night, and he admitted that he has a lot to do with you." , it’s up to you to kill! Bet on them all!”

"Admiral Lu, since we are all friends, why not sit down and discuss it."

Xiao Weizhen smiled: "Just like that night..."

Snapped!
Lu Zhong slapped Xiao Weizhen's face fiercely, then took out several land deeds from his arms, and threw them on Xiao Weizhen's face.

"Your Majesty wants my life. Do you think life is more important than money? Lord Xiao!"

Lu Zhong slapped Xiao Weizhen again with his backhand!

Xiao Weizhen's face turned blue, it wasn't his face that hurt, but his dignity, but he had to force a smile.

"Can Admiral Lu vent his anger?" Xiao Weizhen smiled cheaply.

Lu Zhong bared his teeth at him: "No!"

Just kick Xiao Weizhen to the ground!

"Damn it, I said that you colluded with officials and businessmen. Now it seems that it's not just collusion between officials and businessmen, but conspiracy to rebel!"

Lu Zhong directly put the knife on Xiao Weizhen's neck: "You still want to drag me into the water? Do you know? I am His Majesty's man! It will never change!"

Xiao Weizhen was stunned: "Rebellion, rebellion? Absolutely not, absolutely not!"

He shook his head, his face full of horror.

Had it not been for the Supreme Emperor to seize the door, would he have fallen to this point?
When he heard the rebellion, he felt uncomfortable all over.

Besides, he has just won the favor of His Majesty, how could he rebel so stupidly?
Can……

He slowly looked at Wu Zheng, and when he saw Wu Zheng shut up tightly, he knew something was wrong!
"You, you participated in the rebellion?" Xiao Weizhen really wanted to beat himself to death, why did he come here after receiving a secret report from the Wu family.

That night, he received 1 taels of silver.

He took the land deed of the Wu family and sent Zhang Yongnian and Lu Zhong away.

Afterwards, Wu Zheng presented a painting by Wu Daozi with both hands.

Today he received a secret report from the Wu family, thinking that money is so easy to make, and if he earns a little more, who would think that this is a sinkhole, a sinkhole he put himself into.

"I didn't rebel!" Wu Zheng cried out.

"Then the pawnshop was robbed, why didn't you go to Shuntian Mansion to complain?" Lu Zhong asked.

After being reminded by Lu Zhong, Xiao Weizhen was also stunned.

That's right, the pawn shop is a serious business, if someone steals it, you should get it back, even if the emperor is under too much pressure, he will return part of it.

For two days, Shuntian Mansion has been extremely quiet, it's so weird!

Looking at Lu Zhong again, he knew that the emperor was suspicious, so he sent Tiqi to investigate!

"What secret are you hiding? It's fine if you kill yourself, don't kill me!"

Xiao Weizhen got scared, got up and kicked Wu Zheng hard, snatched the knife from Tiqi, put it on Wu Zheng's neck: "Don't force me to kill someone!"

Wu Zheng was dumbfounded, how did Xiao Weizhen, who was always like a good old man, turned into a wild beast?
It seems that the officials in the court are all evolving in the direction of beasts?
So weird!

"The Wu family is extinct, as well as the Wang family, Yu family, and Huang family. By the way, the Wang family is all dead, and even the corpses can't be found!"

Lu Zhong's eyes flickered, and he asked people to pull all the Wu family over and kill him in front of Wu Zheng!

Then put the head of Wu Zheng's son in front of Wu Zheng, let him stare and watch!

"Don't kill, don't kill..."

Wu Zheng wailed loudly: "Food, it's food!"

"what?"

Lu Zhong grabbed Wu Zheng suddenly, his eyes lit up: "What did you say?"

"food!"

Wu Zheng couldn't hide it anymore.

"Where did the food come from? Where is the food? Take me there! Hurry up!" Lu Zhong was excited, this is an opportunity to make great contributions.

"Not here, in, in the ancestral hall, in the cellar!" Wu Zheng said.

Lu Zhong summoned Tiqi and asked Wu Zheng to lead the way to the Wu Family Ancestral Hall.

A few more people were left behind, and the news was not allowed to spread.

On the way, Lu Zhong and Xiao Weizhen rode together: "Master Xiao, why are you hoarding food? Are you planning to rebel?"

"It has nothing to do with me!"

Xiao Weizhen peed in fright: "I don't know anything!"

He didn't even dare to call himself the official, so he called me directly.

"Tell me, where did Zhao Rong go that night?" Lu Zhong asked.

"I went to Wang Shichen's house." Xiao Weizhen didn't dare to hide anything, and told everything he knew.

After Chen Xun's death, Shanxi merchants were in panic all day long, and finally defected to Li Xian.

In fact, the lack of food in the capital was not caused by a wave of raids by the rich and powerful in the capital, which led to the great famine!

Before that, Shanxi merchants searched for several waves.

When Chen Xun was planning the wala-knocking off, Shanxi merchants discovered business opportunities and took the opportunity to purchase a batch of grain, which they planned to sell at a high price when there was a shortage of grain in Xuanzhen Town.

When the war broke out, Shanxi merchants took the opportunity to search for a wave of grain.

After the news of the severe flood in Shandong, Shanxi merchants bought another wave of grain.

After going back and forth three times, Gyeonggi has already started to run out of food.

At this time, in order to earn money from the emperor, the dignitaries in Beijing collected grain at a high price, which directly caused a great famine in Gyeonggi.

In fact, Gyeonggi has long been a thin layer of ice, but it was pierced by the rich and powerful.

Arrived at the Wu Family Ancestral Hall.

Lu Zhong ordered the people who guarded the ancestral hall to be killed, and then asked Wu Zheng to point and open the cellar.

Wu Zheng didn't dare to resist and opened the cellar.

Lu Zhong went in first with a torch, making people be careful not to ignite the grain.

As a result, after walking in, Lu Zhong widened his eyes, then rushed out and kicked Wu Zheng: "You said this is a little grain?"

Wu Zheng screamed, his neck and chest were bleeding, and he was about to die.

"How much?" Xiao Weizhen was surprised.

"I took a light with a torch, but it didn't reach the head!"

Pfft!
Xiao Weizhen sat on the ground with his ass on the ground. When it was over, the emperor was already suspicious. If he knew that the Wu family had hidden so much grain, he would definitely suspect that the Wu family had rebelled. Li Xian, Xiao Weizhen and others who had a lot of connections with Shanxi merchants would definitely die!

"Who else has food! Tell me!" Lu Zhong knew that he had been hit on the head by a pie, what a great feat!
"The Wang family, the Yu family, and the Huang family all have..."

Gollum!

Lu Zhong swallowed his saliva. According to this calculation, there is no shortage of food in Gyeonggi!
In the cellar of the Wu family, there may be tens of thousands of grains!
"Did you burn fake food that night?" Lu Zhong thought that this was the only explanation, otherwise where did the food come from?
Even if you collect repeatedly, you can't receive so much!
Wu Zheng didn't dare to say.

"It's this time, are you still covering up for others?" Lu Zhong immediately sent someone into the palace to report that relying on Tiqi alone would definitely not be able to control all the food.

He has to share the credit with Jinyiwei and Dongchang.

This is also Lu Zhong's way of self-protection. Compared with Shu Liang and Jin Zhong, he is just the emperor's helpless choice. Shu Liang and Jin Zhong are the people the emperor really trusts.

Therefore, if he shared the credit with Shu Liang and Jin Zhong, he could also buy a good one.

"There is not only this year's grain here, but a lot of it is old grain!"

Wu Zheng said in horror: "These are all saved up by my family..."

Click!

Lu Zhong gave him a sharp knife: "Damn it, are you fooling a fool?"

"I still don't recognize Xin Liang and Chen Liang?"

"I was born in hard times, and I grew up with old food, so I can't tell what is new food and what is old food?"

Wu Zheng was about to be hacked to death. His face was pale and he lost a lot of blood. He opened his mouth and said, "Help, save me!"

"You speak first, and I will save you later!"

"Yes, it's military rations!"

boom!
Lu Zhong's eyes widened, and he looked at Xiao Weizhen suddenly.

The two of them looked at each other, realizing that it was broken, and pierced the sky!

blah blah blah!

The knife in Lu Zhong's hand fell to the ground.

After Wu Zheng finished speaking, he started giggling, and the laughter became more and more joyful, just watching Lu Zhong's joke!
"Laugh at your mother's head! Go to hell!"

Lu Zhong picked up the knife, slashed hard, and chopped off his head!

Seeing that Wu Zheng was killed, Xiao Weizhen breathed a sigh of relief: "Brother Lu, this matter is too important. Now Xuan Town is just a hornet's nest. Let's pretend that we don't know, and donate the food to His Majesty, and ask His Majesty to investigate. Let's not deal with it, shall we?"

Lu Zhong twitched his lips, and he was also terrified.

He is best at protecting himself wisely, and Xiao Weizhen's proposal moved his heart.

"Brother, brother is doing it for your own good."

"Really, this matter is too big, and our shoulders are too thin to bear it."

"Believe it or not, just check, the two of us will die first!"

Xiao Weizhen was terrified, and grabbed Lu Zhong's hand: "Go over, just pretend you don't know anything, and tonight, pretend like your old brother hasn't been here before! Is that okay?"
