Ming Dynasty: At the beginning of the game, Lao Zhu resigned and retired.

Chapter 813: Saving Land and Losing People and Saving People and Losing Land
As for Zhu Yuanzhang, Mr. Hu believed in his murderous nature and his suspicion, but he did not dare to believe in his sense of propriety and means of doing things.

In other words, because Zhu Yuanzhang was an emperor, and a bold and ambitious one at that, Mr. Hu did not dare to gamble.

If ordinary people were in Mr. Hu's shoes and knew that Zhu Yuanzhang was already aware of the other party's conspiracy, then they would naturally not have to worry and could just wait for Zhu to deal with it.

But Mr. Hu has another guess!
He was worried that Zhu Yuanzhang would play the long game and allow the enemy's soldiers to enter the city and even start fighting.

This not only eliminates the people who are already under surveillance, but also lures out enemies hiding in the dark.

If it were anyone else, they would definitely not dare to do such a thing as letting soldiers enter the city and then sending the Jinyiwei and the Imperial Guards to fight with people.

After all, this is Yingtian City, and inside is the imperial palace.

This is not just a matter of face, it also affects the safety of the palace.

But Zhu Yuanzhang has always been conceited and proud.

So, it is possible that he could really do that.

As for why he, who always cared about the people, would allow the rebel soldiers to fight in the city.

That’s easy too!
Because in his opinion, if all the guilty people were executed and then given more compensation, it would be considered taking care of the people.

It's cruel, but it's a good enough approach in this era.

Thinking of this, Master Hu narrowed his eyes slightly.

You have to be careful about this matter.

If there is chaos in Yingtian City, there will definitely be chaos outside the city for a while.

It's not about anything else, but any fierce man who would do such a thing as confiscating property and exterminating a clan would most likely ambush some people outside the city.

On the one hand, it is to have a backup plan, and on the other hand, it is to leave yourself a way out.

These people are definitely the other party's most trusted and craziest personnel, otherwise they would not be entrusted with such an important task.

So, what will happen to Hujiazhuang if these people start making trouble?
Thinking of this, Master Hu looked at Hu Renbin and said in a deep voice, "Keep this to yourself."

"I will send a message to your Majesty."

"But you can't tell anyone what you heard today!"

"Do you understand?"

Hu Renbin was stunned at first, then nodded heavily.

He understood what Master Hu meant, and Master Hu took over the matter.

Although this result made him feel a little disappointed, he also breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

Damn, this kind of thing is really scary.

The biggest things he had ever encountered were nothing more than some trivial intrigues in the government.

But what about this matter now?
Once the commotion starts, it’s conservatively estimated that tens of thousands of people won’t stop until it’s over.

He really didn't know how to deal with it.

Let’s rely on his father!

I'll wait until later to ask my dad in detail how he handled it, so he can gain some experience.

After Hu Renbin left, Master Hu pondered over the matter for a long time in his mind before he slowly stood up and walked towards the outer room.

Soon, Master Hu walked to the gate of Hu Xinyue's courtyard.

Looking at the eunuch at the door who was looking at him with a flattering smile, Master Hu gave the order expressionlessly.

"Go, tell the prince to come out and see me. I have something important to tell you!"

Mr. Hu's words were very impolite, and even offensive to the prince. But the eunuch standing at the door ran inside without saying a word to pass on the message.

Master Hu just asked the prince to come out to see him, so it really wasn't an offense.

Besides, the eunuchs are not stupid.

If something is considered as a major matter by Mr. Hu, it must not be a trivial matter.

If there is any delay, he might lose his life.

It would be better to just pass on the message honestly.

Not long after, Zhu Biao came over in a hurry. When he saw Master Hu with a serious face, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Master Hu didn't care about anything else. He pulled Zhu Biao over and motioned for everyone else to stay away. Then he whispered a few words in Zhu Biao's ear and patted Zhu Biao's shoulder heavily.

Zhu Biao, who was already feeling a little nervous, now looked as if tears were dripping from his face.

After listening to Master Hu's mutterings, he looked at Master Hu deeply, then nodded heavily, turned around and walked into the yard to start making arrangements.

Upon seeing this, Mr. Hu did not suspect anything and went back to his study to arrange the next matters of Hujiazhuang.

But he never expected that just as he returned to the study and sat down, Hu Xinyue hurried over.

"Dad, won't you come back to the city with us?"

Master Hu frowned when he heard this: "If I leave, what will happen to the people in the village?"

Hu Xinyue raised her brows when she heard this: "Dad, you taught me that."

“If you save the land but lose the people, both the land and the people will be lost; if you lose the land but save the people, both the land and the people will be saved.”

"Even if all the scraps of copper and iron in the village were thrown away, how much would they be worth?"

"I know you will definitely not let me continue to live in the manor with my imperial guards, so why do you continue to live here with them?"

"Well, let's go together!"

"Please ask Butler Hu to notify everyone. All the people in our village will move to our Hu Mansion to live together."

"Once we've dealt with this, we'll come back!"

When Master Hu heard this, he looked at Hu Xinyue in a daze, and then smiled with relief.

"Yue'er, you've made Daddy very proud just to think of this!"

"Okay, I'll listen to you. Let's have Hu Yi tell everyone to pack up and leave!"

When Hu Xinyue saw that her suggestion was adopted by Master Hu, the sadness on her face immediately disappeared. Instead, she became proud because of the praise from Master Hu just now.

Mr. Hu was not a hesitant person. He immediately went out with a smile to find Hu Yi to make arrangements.

Before leaving, he smiled and pinched Hu Xinyue's face, and then sighed secretly in his heart.

Damn it, I'm getting further and further back in history. I'd rather take risks than make any compromises just to order some bottles and jars.

What a shame!
Fortunately, my daughter, who was educated by myself, is sensible and smart, and she reminded me at the critical moment.

Otherwise, if I really paid a heavy price to save Hujiazhuang, but ended up losing a large number of people, when I finally figured it out, wouldn't I be regretting it?
Thinking of this, Mr. Hu's pace quickened.

Hu Yi suddenly heard the order from Master Hu asking everyone in the farm to count the valuables in their homes and then temporarily live in the Hu Mansion. He was a little slow to react for a moment.

What's this picture?

But Master Hu didn't care about that at all. He just asked him to do it quickly and even said directly that it wouldn't be a pity to throw away some bottles and jars.

If you stay any longer, you might even die! (End of this chapter)
