I was the emperor in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 684

As soon as these words came out, the three of them were even more confused, thinking to themselves,

"Your Majesty's appointment was confused. If the fires hadn't been rescued in time, it is estimated that all the achievements of the past six months could be burned to nothing.

It's not bad if His Majesty doesn't get angry, but praises the burning well. This is really abnormal. Your Majesty's designation is ironic! "

Zheng He couldn't help but whispered to Li Tian,

"Your Majesty, please take care of the dragon body. It doesn't matter if it's gone. As long as you're still here, the sky of Daming won't collapse!"

Zhu Yong and Zhang Fu also said with pale faces,

"Your Majesty, take care, a mere fire will not destroy Daming's hope!"

Seeing that the three of them obviously made a mistake, Li Tian laughed again and said,

"You guys, do you think that you are really confused by anger, that's why you say that.

On the contrary, I only woke up after seeing such a magnificent scene. "

"Indeed, I was the same as you at the beginning. I felt that everything was over. After investing so much money and energy, I burned it clean. I am really resentful!"

"However, have you ever thought that this is actually a warning from God to me, so that I can understand at this time that not everyone in this world wants new things and new things to appear!"

"Da Ming wanted to break free from the barriers of the Taizu and the late emperor, a bone-wrenching change was unavoidable.

I was too careless before, and this gave those who opposed me an opportunity! "

"You're right. As long as people are safe, a big fire won't destroy them. Daming is determined to reform."

"It was this fire that made me understand that there is no change without bloodshed. The emergence of new things and new classes must go through the baptism of blood and fire before they can be truly accepted by the world."

"My baptism will end tonight, and it's time to make those restless people pay the price!"

As soon as the last sentence was finished, the hearts of the three of them were shocked.
"It's over, His Majesty is really angry, and I don't know how many people will be involved this time, and how many innocent people will follow in vain!"

But they didn't say anything to comfort Li Tian, ​​because they knew that the current Li Tian might be like a powder keg that was about to detonate, and it would explode at any moment.

If you persuade him, it may have the opposite effect. The best thing to do at this time is to keep silent and wait until he calms down.

"Report, there is news from Tiangongyuan that the fire has been basically extinguished. Except for a few people who were burned by the fire, there were not many casualties. No suspicious person was found outside Tiangongyuan!"

"Report, the fire at the exchange has been extinguished, and three arsonists were arrested at the scene, and the others were killed on the spot when they were already resisting!"

"Report, several other fire points have been extinguished, and no suspicious persons have been found!"

Li Tian didn't seem very happy when he heard the news that the fires were extinguished one by one.

It just felt like something was wrong.

"It's impossible, I have already arranged manpower to block the intersections at the first time, and it stands to reason that in a few important places, no matter how many people there are, one or two arsonists can always be caught.

But why, only a few arsonists were found near an unimportant exchange! "

He suddenly spread out the map of the capital.

According to the time when the fire broke out everywhere, use a line to connect the trajectories of the fire places.

In the end, several lines were unexpectedly all gathered in one place.

And this place, not anywhere else, is the headquarters of the Royal Bank.

At this moment, Li Tian seemed to understand many things suddenly.

Throwing the brush in his hand, he laughed loudly,
"So, so that's the way it is. After a long time, you've made such a big noise, it's actually a cover-up. You've lit so many places, and it's actually just to empty out my pocketbook."

"This trick is really useful in seconds, it's absolutely perfect!"

Being so impressed by Li Tian, ​​the three of Zheng He lowered their heads and took a look, and they immediately understood the road map that Li Tian had just drawn.

All of them turned pale.

"He...their real purpose is actually the Royal Bank. Your Majesty, send someone to help. If you hesitate for a while, it may be too late!"

What is the Royal Bank? It is the place where more than half of the common people's businesses in the capital of the Ming Dynasty are stored, with nearly 3000 million taels of silver.

Once this place is destroyed, the money will be robbed.

Not only will the imperial court lose the biggest reliance on reform, but it will also arouse the anger of the people who have lost all their wealth.

And the angry people, as long as they provoke a little, they may provoke a civil uprising. As long as the civil uprising is together, those conspirators hiding behind the scenes will have too much to do.

Whether it is taking the opportunity to seize military power, enhance their own strength, or taking advantage of the chaos to fuel the flames for greater benefits, or overthrowing Li Tian's rule in one fell swoop, it is a godsend opportunity for them to change to a more obedient person.

After understanding the true intentions of these guys, Li Tian couldn't help admiring,

"I really underestimated you, it turns out that you have already seen through the essence of the Royal Bank.

Using economic imbalances to create greater chaos, and you profit from it, this trick has been used by the old Americans with great proficiency in later generations.

Unexpectedly, unexpectedly, hundreds of years ago, you have already understood this point, it is really amazing. "

Hearing Li Tian's muttering and seeing that he still didn't move, the hearts of the three became more and more anxious.

"Your Majesty, give an order quickly, if you hesitate any longer, it may be too late!"

Li Tian smiled lightly and shook his head,
"Don't worry, isn't there already a pair of new troops over there? I haven't encountered any enemies in the other places. This time I just let them show off and test their combat effectiveness."

"But Your Majesty, although the new army is well-equipped and well-trained, they have never been on the battlefield. I am afraid that they will not be able to handle such an important task rashly!"

Li Tian shook his head and said,
"Don't worry, I know exactly how the new army's combat effectiveness is. I believe they will be able to deal with all situations!"

"Your Majesty..."

Zhu Yong still wanted to fight, but Zhang Fu and Zheng He on the side stopped him and whispered to him,
"Cheng Guogong, the new army was brought out by us alone. We should be happy that His Majesty's new army has such confidence. Don't say too much. Is it possible that you don't even have confidence in your own soldiers!"

Zhu Yong shut up when he was choked by the words of the two.

"Our soldiers are all good-looking, and it's no problem for one to fight ten."

"That's it, then you have nothing to worry about."
