Jingtai Fengyun: The First Absurd Emperor of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 162 Xungui beheaded in exchange for marriage with the new king who sold his son and daughter

Facing the enthusiasm of the nobles present and the eyes of the new king asking for help, Qianxue thought for a while and then gave the answer: "As the saying goes, it's better to come early than to come by coincidence. Duke Ding proposed the marriage first, and His Majesty has already agreed unconditionally.

You are not joking, if you agree, you agree.Your Majesty can also agree to the marriage requests of other people.

But after all, there are so many people who agreed without setting any conditions. Even if His Majesty is willing, he will not be able to explain it to the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty. "

As soon as the nobles heard this, they knew there was something going on, and they hurriedly asked the princess what conditions she had.

Qianxue smiled and said: "There is a ready-made Oirat army outside the city, let's talk about the heads of the Tartars. 3000 heads are exchanged for a prince or concubine, and the price is clear, and there is no deception. What do you think?"

As soon as Zhu Qiyu heard this, she was delighted. This girl felt that the fighting outside the city was not lively enough. At first, the generals and nobles thought it was not enough. Now you are still running to add fuel to the fire. According to this game, tomorrow 20 More than half of the army would have to be pulled out to attack and kill.

But no matter how much Zhu Qiyu slandered, he couldn't hold back the nobles saying yes.Chengshan Hou Wangtong had already cut off half of the princes and concubines, and another thousand or eight hundred tartars would be enough heads. Of course, he strongly supported Qianxue's idea.

Shi Heng felt that a mere 3000 people was nothing to worry about, so he agreed immediately.

It doesn't matter to the Marquis of Xining and the Marquis of Zhenyuan, even if they can't kill 3000 people, they can still talk about their relationship with Xinjun in private.Especially Hou Songjie of Xining, his heart is as stable as Mount Tai: he is the grandson of Emperor Taizong and the cousin of the current emperor, so there is no problem at all in discussing feelings with the emperor in private.

So the two parties settled their minds and drank happily.

Not long after, it was completely dark, and other rich and powerful people in the capital began to rush to Jietianlou for the banquet one after another.

Wu Jin, the Marquis of Gongshun, came especially early. It is said that his father and uncle died in Tumubao, so he should stay at home and keep his filial piety.But the Wu family is a Mongolian who surrendered to Ming Dynasty, so they don't pay much attention to these things.

As soon as Wu Jin's carriage entered the Xicheng area, there were no people on the street at all, only teams of soldiers patrolling.

Wu Jin asked the housekeeper curiously: "What's the matter? Why is there no one in the always bustling West City except the soldiers?"

The housekeeper replied: "Master Hou, it looks like martial law is in effect."

When Wu Jin heard this, she became anxious: "How can it be done? After all, I have to catch up with such a grand event like fundraising. I will buy a few famous prostitutes to take care of them."

The housekeeper replied with a smile: "Didn't you read what the invitation said? You can't buy it with money alone. You also need the willingness of the beautiful woman, and the two sides are in love with each other."

"Then I'm going to buy it by force? A merchant in the Tianlou, how dare you offend me, a dignified lord? My father and uncle died in battle for Ming Dynasty. Even if they go to the emperor, they still have to give me three points of face. "

The housekeeper smiled and said, "Master Hou, I would like to advise you that nothing major has happened recently, but if you look at this quiet street, is it possible that the master of Jietianlou arranged this martial law?"

"Isn't it? A business has such a lot of energy?"

"Master Hou doesn't believe it, you'll find out after a while with an official in charge."

When Wu Jin heard the words, she kept her mouth shut and waited for a while to slap the butler in the face.

Not long after, the carriage arrived outside Mingyufang.There are more soldiers here, the whole street is full, and checkpoints are set up to check the people who come, and only the invited people are allowed to enter according to the invitation.

Wu Jin was quite surprised, so she got out of the carriage and came over to investigate in person.

Arriving at the checkpoint, Wu Jin was about to put on a stance when he saw Zhou Shou standing there with a smile.

Wu Jin couldn't get up immediately. Why was it so cold that Empress Zhou's younger brother and the prince's uncle were standing guard here in person.

When Zhou Shou saw Wu Jin, he walked over unhurriedly.Wu Jin hurried forward to pay respects: "Uncle Guo, why are you standing here in person? Is this something serious in the capital?"

Zhou Shou shook his head helplessly, he was only 16 years old, how could he become an old man.Fortunately, in terms of status, his status is enough, Zhou Shou is not polite, he just smiled and said:

"I can't help it, Marquis Gongshun, as the commander of the Xicheng Army and Horse Division, it is my duty to maintain the law and order of the Xicheng.

In addition, my sister personally ordered me to martial law in the west city, supervise and inspect Mingyufang, and ensure that today's fundraising dinner goes smoothly without interruption. "

Seeing that her housekeeper was right, Wu Jin couldn't help being very curious: "Uncle Guo, who is the owner behind the Jietianlou? How can he be so skillful that he can really martial law the entire West City, and even the country Uncle ordered it all."

Zhou Shou shook his head and smiled and said, "Master Hou, don't ask, anyway, the two of us together won't be able to break a finger. So don't think about it so much, Master Hou just spend money to enjoy it.

No matter how good their hands and eyes are, they are now opening their doors to do business. As long as you have money, you are the uncle in Jietianlou.

Today, there are not only beauties of various colors in the building, but also hundreds of treasures to be auctioned. You go in first, have a few glasses of wine, and let the girls sing you a little song.In another hour, everyone came, and the dinner officially began. "

Wu Jin made sense when she heard this, she came to be an uncle tonight, so why bother herself.Don't care about his background, as long as he opens the door to do business, he has to treat himself as a master.

So Wu Jin chatted with Zhou Shou again, and then came to Jietian Tower.At this time, hundreds of famous names and hundreds of treasures have gathered on the upper floor, which are just placed everywhere for everyone to watch.It is really dazzling and dizzying.

As soon as Wu Jin came in, there were two stunning beauties who waited on her left and right, drinking and entertaining her all the time.

An hour later, all the invited dignitaries of the capital arrived, and the dinner officially began.

As soon as the beauty who presided over the dinner entered the venue, it immediately aroused cheers from the audience.

The beauty in front of me was known by quite a few people present. She was from the south of the Yangtze River, the famous prostitute Li Xi'er who was in the limelight for a while.

Li Xi'er didn't say much, and smiled faintly to everyone in the audience: "I kept you nobles waiting for a long time, and now the fundraising dinner officially begins.

The slave family will tell you the rules: those who are willing to donate directly can raise a placard to shout out.However, we still recommend using the auction method.

In order to respond to the imperial court's call and do their part to redeem the Supreme Emperor, the owner of Jietianlou decided to destroy the family and auction off all the treasures.

And take out [-]% of the auction proceeds, donate to the empress dowager free of charge, and use it to pay the ransom to Wala.

Please use silver uniformly when bidding, and you can also use equivalent gold when the actual delivery is made.

And for every 1 taels sold, the owner allowed one of the sisters present to be free again.In these three nights, if 100 million taels can be auctioned, not only will the ransom be enough, even the sisters present will all be free. "
