Fast Travel: A Record of Unusual Creatures

Chapter 481 The rebellion is only for the sake of the nine clans (11)

In the capital city, inside Zhao Prison.

After the eunuch who delivered the decree finished reading the decree, the princes who still had a glimmer of hope for the future, as well as the Marquis of Yongan, Guo Pingping, were stunned for an instant, followed by a rather crazy roar, unwilling to accept the decree.

"Impossible, how could this be?"

"We are his uncles, how could he treat us like this, I want to cry Taimiao, please follow the instructions from our ancestors!!"

"Tyrant! Faint Lord!"

Compared with the collapse of those princes, Hou Guoping of Yong'an was the calmest one at this time, because when he was captured, he didn't expect to leave alive. The chances of being pardoned for a capital crime are very low.

In addition, his daughter-in-law, who is very strange to him now, has stolen all the emperor's money and all the assets of the officials. I also know that no one is willing to intercede for him. He poured his anger on him, so the end of being exterminated now, in his opinion, was completely expected.

At this time, there is more of a sense of dust settled in my heart.

And suddenly realized what her daughter-in-law said in the past:

"No wonder, no wonder she kept saying that she would make me regret it. I thought she wanted to attack my other children, and even sent more people to protect me. I didn't expect, I didn't expect, I didn't expect that she would be so crazy , actually want to rebel and drag my nine clans to die together!

I knew it earlier, I knew it earlier...

Ugh……"

Although Yong'an Hou Guoping regretted not being able to protect his and Princess Jiahe's only son back then, and later allowed his concubines and concubines to do something to his grandson, making Princess Jiahe go crazy, but the matter is a foregone conclusion, no regrets It was useless, and because he didn't want to be beheaded to show the public, Guo Ping finished feeling, thinking that he finally figured out the cause of his death, and even if he died at this time, he would not be a fool, so he completely relented, and by running up, He hit a wall and died on the spot.

Then in addition to scaring the prince next to him.

And nothing else came out.

The jailer was used to calling Wu Zuo in, and after checking it, he registered and reported it.

Immediately afterwards, the corpse was dragged out and temporarily stored.

Two days later, after the whole clan beheaded together, they will be dealt with in a unified manner. Emperor Xuanwu was merciful and specially allowed them to be cremated and buried together without being thrown into random graves and eaten by wild dogs after death, and a monument or something should be erected.

Both left a place for them to bury.

It can also alert the world along the way.

At the same time, most of the yamen and officials in the capital are still busy, and the palace is also busy, busy checking all the underground passages, busy checking some of them, and making sure that there is no gold, silver or jewelry Fill and compact the channel in the missing area.

And busy going to the north and south districts to search.

The basic layout of the capital is rich in the east and noble in the west, poor in the south and cheap in the north. Most of the DC area are rich merchants and families, most of the XC area are nobles or official residences, most of the southern districts are ordinary people and small officials, and the northern districts are mainly wealthy families. It's a bit unlucky that prisons, even Jinyiwei and the like are there, and they are looked down upon by civil and military officials.

The underground passages are mainly concentrated underground in the DC area and the XC area. After all, the other two urban areas may be much richer than other cities.

But in comparison.

It is indeed much worse than the other two urban areas.

Because of this, many officials suspect that there may be many followers of the White Lotus Sect demon hidden in these two urban areas, and there are some who are helping Princess Jia and the like.

Even suspect some gold and silver jewelry.

It may be hidden in these two urban areas.

So of course we have to conduct a thorough investigation of these two places, and hope that we can find some missing things, so at least there are some clues, right?
But, after a busy day and night.

Although some officials and nobles found some things that were suspected to be lost by their own families, after a torture and thorough investigation, they found that although the things were lost by their family, they were not lost recently at all, they were lost a long time ago He was stolen and sold by servants of the family, even housekeepers and the like.

Then, some of the officials, Xungui, who were desperate to get something to reassure themselves because they lost too much money, and even became poor and crazy, started to take their housekeepers and other cronies.

Some nobles whose whole families are not educated and not very knowledgeable, who were sold and counted the money for others, even copied more things from the houses of the housekeeper and other servants or servants than the gold and silver lost in their house .

It can barely be regarded as a pleasant surprise.

In addition to the relatively injured servants of these housekeepers, the White Lotus Sect, which has not been very active in recent years, is the real person sitting at home. Rebel propaganda and nothing else.

Then some strongholds were suddenly destroyed.

Some were also suddenly caught.

As things got worse, some senior officials of the White Lotus Sect couldn't sit still. While they were angry, they decided in private after deliberation. Then they decided to go against it. That was to send people to rescue the arrested believers, and at the same time, they began to fight in some famine areas. , or areas where corrupt officials are more serious, incite local believers, and people who have been ruined by corrupt officials and have nothing but life and hatred to rebel.

Of course, the imperial court could only rush to suppress the disaster relief.

And the effect is very poor, worse than in the past.

The reason is actually very simple. It is still Qu Jie's fault. Under normal circumstances, the silver taels distributed to the disaster-stricken areas for disaster relief are usually exploited layer by layer, with half or [-]% deducted. But this time, not one of the ministers who handled it Is the loss heavy? The loss is too heavy, and I can't get it back for the time being. Naturally, I can only make up for it from other places.

The top scrapes too hard, and the bottom doesn't know.

Also follow the usual practice.

In the end, when the 100 million silver came to the disaster area, there was not even [-] left, and the food price skyrocketed again. The result can be imagined!

The same goes for the military salaries used to suppress the refugees. Some military generals who suffered too much losses earned a lot of oil and water. The end result is that the army mutinied and joined the refugees, and they really attacked the city and conquered the village all the way.

When Emperor Xuanwu figured out the specific situation.

One-tenth of the world has fallen into chaos.

……

Let's talk about Qu Jie.

As soon as she left the capital, she immediately led her private soldiers and headed to the south at full speed, and half a month later, she met with her two personal nuns and her own granddaughter on Nanwan Island. At the same time, Nanwan Island, which is not small in size, settled down and used it as a basis for transit.

Make the transfer between Daqian Dynasty and overseas.

Constantly looking for people from the Dagan Dynasty, transporting them to Nanwan Island for training, and then transporting them to other large overseas islands, temporarily climbing the technology tree and waiting for the future.
