Chapter 72: Prince, put away your mercy!!!
On the east-west avenue of Qingzhou City, the stalls and vendors are densely packed, selling everything, and the shouting and selling are one after another, and it is very lively.
Merchants from all over the world bring all kinds of strange things.
Although the victims cannot afford to buy expensive things, they will also buy a sugar gourd, gadgets and the like for their children.
Chinese New Year’s Eve night, Zhu Rong prepared a large number of fireworks and set them off directly outside the city, so that the aborigines in Qingzhou City and the victims of the disaster outside the city ~ could enjoy it together.
This is destined to be an unforgettable Chinese New Year’s Eve night for countless people!
In the year of the catastrophe, being in Qingzhou, how fortunate!
Countless fireworks burst into the night sky.
The people cheered, and the children ran around excitedly.
Of course, Qingzhou at this time has not yet developed thoroughly, and the degree of liveliness is naturally incomparable with Ying Tianfu, the most prosperous capital of the Ming Dynasty.
Approaching the end of the year, there is more fun.
Merchants from all over the world bring all kinds of strange things.
There are also all kinds of jugglers and so on, filling the streets and alleys, so lively.
Many big girls who don’t go out of the door will also sneak out to join in the fun accompanied by their families.
“Wow! Look, these two monkeys are married in the chapel! ”
“Miss, you slow down!”
Wu Yan giggled and ran down the street.
After watching the monkey visit the church and get married, Wu Yan was fresh and bored.
The monkeys are all married, but I haven’t even done it yet.
Ride the boom and return with defeat.
“Go home!”
The maid hurried to catch up.
At this time, there are many pedestrians on the streets, not to mention rubbing shoulders.
“Flash! Move! All to Xiao Ye flash! ”
One person, freshly dressed and angry, shuttled through the busy city.
Pedestrians took refuge.
“Miss, slow down! Miss, where are you? ”
The maid chased behind, and suddenly found that the crowded crowd in front of her spread out like a tide.
Then, a black horse suddenly appeared in front of him!
The maid’s eyes widened in fright, and the whole person was blinded.
The black horse didn’t stop and slammed into the maid.
The maid died on the spot!
Wu Yan next to him looked at this scene, like a lightning strike, and sat weakly on the ground.
“Hurting people on horseback, who is so bold?”
“Dare to be so presumptuous in the capital, arrest him to meet the official!”
“Oh, this little girl is dead!”
“Don’t let him run, arrest him and go to the official!”
The black horse boy flicked the horsewhip, the black horse’s front hooves jumped high, and the people shouted and avoided.
“I see who dares?! Know who I am? My father, but when you are the minister of the dynasty, you dare to arrest me?! ”
Zuo Cheng Minister Wang Guangyang was killed by Zhu Yuanzhang just two days ago.
This person claims to be the son of the minister, then
“Is it Hu Xiang’s son?!”
“Shhh——! It turned out to be him! ”
Wu Yan was at a loss as she lay beside the maid, shouting the maid’s name while crying out in fright.
Wu Yan has always been carefully protected, she has never experienced any setbacks since she was a child, where has she encountered such a thing?
“Brother, big brother!”
Wu Yan subconsciously called out to Wu Gao, but Wu Gao was still on duty.
“Your maid!” The black horse boy felt out a money bag and threw it on the ground: “This is five hundred taels, accompany you, let’s clear the two, drive!” ”
The black horse boy walked away.
Wu Yan looked at the departing back of the black horse boy, and her blood-stained hands clenched fiercely.
Hu Weiyong went down to the court, and when he learned of this, he was greatly angered.
Now, the emperor is dealing with him, and the battle between the emperor and the powerful subjects is the fiercest time, and if you are not careful, you will worry about your life.
This bastard son actually dares to make trouble for himself!
Hu Weiyong immediately asked people to take 50,000 silver taels and the black horse boy to the Wu family’s mansion to plead guilty, hoping that the big thing would turn into a small matter.
If this matter is disturbed in the court, it will definitely become the handle of the emperor, and his son is afraid that he will not be able to keep it.
However, the Wu family mansion, all doorways, were closed.
Wu Gao couldn’t see the emperor, and it had nothing to do with the prince’s party or Zhu Di’s party, so he had to send someone and inform the palace concubine Darling!
If it was usual, Concubine Darling might not be able to help, but in the past two days, Zhu Yuanzhang took Empress Ma to eat hot pot at Concubine Darling’s side when he was fine.
After hearing the news from the palace maid, Concubine Darling at the dinner table turned pale.
Zhu Yuanzhang asked the reason, and he was furious!
“Almost hurt the future princess of our family’s seventh elder, and still want to live?!”
Zhu Rong’s performance this year is really eye-catching, and it is also one of the few things that makes Zhu Yuanzhang more happy.
Zhu Yuanzhang already felt that he owed Zhu Rong a little, but now, he actually heard that Hu Weiyong’s son rushed into the street and killed Wu Yan’s maid, and almost injured Wu Yan, and his murderous intention reappeared!
“Pass on our will! Let it die! It is not allowed to pay his family’s request with gold! ”
On the same day, Hu Weiyong’s son, a black horse boy, was beheaded at the mouth of the vegetable market for public display!
Long live the people!
Above the hall, it was even more stormy.
Hu Weiyong completely showed a trend of decline.
He can’t even keep his own son, which minister can he protect?!
Everyone is at risk and draws a line with them.
Above the court, Hu Weiyong’s scene of echoing will never be seen again!
Zhu Yuanzhang sat on the dragon chair, scanned the group of ministers, his face was like frost, not angry and arrogant!
At the end of the Yuan, the dictatorship of the prime minister reached its extreme. Zhu Yuanzhang was the world that he took from the hands of the Yuan Dynasty, how could he sit idly by and watch Hu Weiyong’s monstrous power and ignore?!
Finally, when it came to the Chinese New Year’s Eve, the officials breathed a sigh of relief.
It’s good to be able to live at home for the New Year.
And the Daming Dynasty also entered the thirteenth year of Hongwu.
The bloody wind begins!
Before Chinese New Year’s Eve, Zhu Yuanzhang killed a total of 50 officials, including Zuo Cheng Minister Wang Guangyang.
Many people think that Chinese New Year’s Eve is a hurdle, and after Chinese New Year’s Eve next year, it may be safe, but this is only the beginning.
The Ming Dynasty went to work very early after the New Year, because there were relatively few holidays, and Zhu Yuanzhang stipulated that officials had five days of vacation every month. During the New Year, there are 5 days off from the beginning of the year, and at the winter solstice, there are also three days of vacation, which is called rest.
The Tang Dynasty and the Song Dynasty had the most holidays, while the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty were more miserable, Zhu Yuanzhang himself was a workaholic, with unlimited energy, and he had to grasp big and small things, just like an iron man!
When the emperor is so diligent, the officials below can imagine that the vacation will naturally shrink significantly.
After the Ming Dynasty overthrew the Yuan Dynasty, the officials thought that the days of suffering were over, but they did not expect to meet a workaholic like Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang believes that when a scholar becomes an official, he serves the people, and there is nothing to take any vacation; Zhu Yuanzhang himself is from a peasant background, and he saw the brutality of officials when he was a child, so the restraint on officials is extremely strong.
For this reason, officials have not complained less in private. However, now it seems that a few days off is nothing at all, and it is good to be alive.
I just didn’t expect that this year, there was no holiday at all!
Continue to work on the first day of the first lunar month!
On the first day of the new year, another head landed on the ground, and everyone was at risk for themselves.
Hu Weiyong controls the imperial court, and the entire court is basically involved with him, and no one can clear it.
According to such a killing method, the entire court needs a major blood change.
Wu Gao, the eldest son of Jiangyin Hou, was dressed properly and was ready to go out.
Today he was going to take up his post and instructed the second son of Jiangyin Hou: “Our family’s land deeds are all placed in the cabinet on the left side of my study, you can take this key, if I can return safely, you will return it to me.” If I can’t go back, after the Wu family, you will be in charge. Oh, by the way, Old Man Liu from Xitou borrowed 3 taels of silver from our family last year, and said that it would be better to pay it back after the New Year!
I can’t come back, you remember to get the account back. ”
The Wu family, large and small, including Wu Yan, surrounded Wu Gao and saw him off.
Hearing him say this, Wu Yan was a little scared, grabbed his armor, and asked: “Big brother, you are just watching the door in the palace, the emperor can’t kill you, not to mention, we are not close to the Hu family, his son, there was a conflict with our family a few days ago, and he killed my maid”
Wu Gao sighed: “I’m just in case, our father, I talked to Hu Xiang before, forget it, don’t say it, I’m going to the palace to be on duty!” ”
The rest of the civil and military attachés were also doing similar actions to Wu Gao, making a will before going to the court, instructing the family to do the relevant matters, and then dressing properly, sitting in a sedan chair or carriage, and going to the Fengtian Hall with anxiety.
Zhu Yuanzhang’s indiscriminate killing really frightened all the ministers.
Even Prince Zhu Biao couldn’t sit still.
Now, the popularity of the crown prince Zhu Biao has simply reached the extreme, regardless of his position as crown prince, regardless of whether he will become the second emperor of the Ming Dynasty in the future, just because he is willing to speak for the officials, all the ministers are full of favor for him.
The first thing Prince Zhu Biao did every day when he went down to the dynasty was to first ask Zhu Yuanzhang to reduce the punishment of the ministers.
Sometimes he can save one or two, and sometimes he just goes out on the front foot, and Zhu Yuanzhang wants to kill someone on the back foot.
Prince Zhu Biao has not been able to eat or sleep in the past two days.
On the evening of the fifth day of the first month, Li Wenzhong of the Metropolitan Governor’s Mansion finally obtained substantial evidence that Hu Weiyong manipulated the Qingzhou incident.
Because during this period, there was a lot of indiscriminate killings in the court, and Zhu Yuanzhang killed more than 50 officials in a row, all of which were related to Hu Weiyong, and everyone was at their own risk.
And for self-preservation, one of them jumped out.
This is a speech official, and it was he who was instructed by Hu Weiyong to try to link the Qingzhou incident with potato poisoning in the court.
Now, Hu Weiyong’s big tree is about to fall, and if he continues to kill like this, he is afraid that he will also be unable to protect his head, so in order to find a way to live, he took the initiative to surrender himself.
Li Wenzhong was overjoyed and immediately took the confession of the official to see Zhu Yuanzhang.
It was already the early hours of the morning, Zhu Yuanzhang had already laid down and fell asleep, and the emperor like an iron man had just climbed up.
Seeing the confession that Li Wenzhong received, Zhu Yuanzhang trembled with anger, the Qingzhou incident was just the tip of the iceberg, this salt official revealed more information to Li Wenzhong, many of which were related to rebellion and rebellion!
On the sixth day of the first lunar month, before dawn, Li Wenzhong took the people of the Metropolitan Governor’s Mansion and the emperor’s forbidden army to directly copy Hu Weiyong’s mansion.
Hu Weiyong was ordered to be executed on the charge of plotting rebellion!
The imperial court began to thoroughly clean up Hu Weiyong’s party, and every day the heads of people landed on the ground.
Li Wenzhong led people to raid the house and also received Hu Weiyong’s secret room, but Hu Weiyong had also noticed that the wind was not in the right direction and had already burned the relevant evidence.
Li Wenzhong didn’t find much, so he asked people to make a dragon robe overnight and give it to Zhu Yuanzhang together with other evidence.
The emperor is furious: kill!
