The Most Powerful Man in the World
Page 258
Chu Yi decided Hulimu's life and death in one word. Even though Hulimu was a tribal leader of the Tatars, he was also a commander-in-chief. He was considered a high-ranking among the Tatars, but in Chu Yi's eyes, Hu Limu is nothing at all.
Hearing Chu Yi's words suddenly, Hu Limu was stunned almost instinctively, then reacted with a look of horror on his face and shouted: "You...you are going to kill me!"
Chu Yi waved his hand lightly and said, "Why, can't the Governor still kill you?"
Hu Limu saw that the two soldiers behind him actually carried himself out of the hall, and suddenly screamed: "You can't kill me, I can tell you about Bals and them, I can..."
Hu Limu panicked all of a sudden. It was because Chu Yi's attitude was too calm, especially when he saw that Chu Yi looked at him without the slightest fluctuation in his eyes, as if he was looking at an irrelevant person. It made Hu Limu panic.
Chu Yi really did not have him in his eyes, and completely ignored him, which meant that Chu Yi was not trying to intimidate him by killing him, but that he was really going to behead him.
You must know that he chose to surrender before, just to survive, but now he is going to have his head cut off, how can he be reconciled?
"Don't kill me, don't kill me, I surrender, I am willing to submit to Daming, and always be loyal to Daming..."
Chu Yi just said lightly: "Those who are not my race will have different hearts!"
Historically, the Central Plains dynasties mostly treated foreign races in a royal way. As long as the foreign races were willing to surrender, the Central Plains Dynasty would often let go of the past, not only ignoring the past, but also rewarding them, but they didn’t know that once the Central Plains declined, these old days would restrain their minions and lick their wounds silently. , the alien race recovering its vitality will show its fangs again and take a bite.
Daming claimed that all states came to the dynasty, and Zhu Yuanzhang, the emperor, appointed fifteen countries that were not to be conquered, which shows that most of the time the Central Plains dynasty treated foreigners.
Of course, if the Central Plains is strong and prosperous, then it would be nothing to educate the alien race with the monarchy. It is the advantage of the Central Plains to be inclusive and powerful.
The key point is that the national strength of Ming Dynasty is declining, but it is not a time to pay attention to kindness. Even in Chu Yi's view, when dealing with aliens, if you can solve the problem by killing, you don't need to consider other strategies.
Regarding Chu Yi's order to kill Hu Limu, all the generals present looked calm and did not show any surprise.
In their opinion, it was normal for Chu Yi to kill Hu Limu. Anyway, Chu Yi killed so many people, and one more Hu Limu is not much.
But in the blink of an eye, he saw a soldier holding a tray. On the tray, there was a ferocious and bloody head, who was not Hu Limu.
Chu Yi waved his hand and said, "Send someone to send it to Ballsborough!"
While speaking, Chu Yi looked at Xu Tianzuo and Sun Qiu and said, "Taiyuan City has returned to the imperial court, so it needs to be governed by officials. The officials in the city are carefully screened, but anyone who takes the initiative to join the Tartars will be beheaded. ."
After speaking for a while, a stern expression flashed in Chu Yi's eyes: "According to the news from Jinyiwei, the reason why Taiyuan City was so easily destroyed by the Tartars was that several major families in the city colluded with the Tartars and privately opened the city gate. Fang caused Taiyuan City to fall, have you investigated this matter?"
Jinyiwei is the most well-informed, why Taiyuan City fell so quickly, as long as it is not a fool, he will definitely find out.
After all, if Taiyuan City is prepared, with the ability of the Tatars to attack the city, even if there are a large number of people, under the defense of tens of thousands of soldiers, they will not be broken in a day.
Xu Tianzuo took a deep breath and said, "Returning to the general manager, the last general has personally investigated the reason why Taiyuan City fell, but it originated from the fact that the Miao and Lu families in the city colluded with the Tatars and secretly opened the city gate, especially When Hu Limu was sitting in Taiyuan City, the Miao and Lu families helped Zhou to abuse, helped the Tatars to raise food and grass, and made bloody killings in Taiyuan City..."
When Xu Tianzuo explained how the Miao family, Lu family and other families in Taiyuan City helped the Tatars to help Zhou and abused the people in the city, the generals in the hall were full of anger, and their faces Full of anger.
A general couldn't help but slapped the table and roared: "It should be killed, so many people who forget their ancestors, they really deserve to be killed!"
"Forgetting the ancestors by counting the scriptures, it is really forgetting the ancestors by counting the scriptures, even if they slaughtered their nine clans, it would be difficult to atone for their sins!"
Chu Yi's expression was calm, but one hand was rubbing a jade wrench on the tip of his finger, which showed that Chu Yi's heart was boiling with murderous intent.
It was known earlier that the Miao family and the Lu family colluded with the Tatars, and I never thought that the Miao family would dedicate Taiyuan City to the Tatars, and they even helped Zhou in Taiyuan City.
I just heard Chu Yi slowly say: "Where are the Miao and Lu families now?"
Sun Qiu cupped his hands and said: "Returning to the Governor, several families knew that Taiyuan City could not escape the punishment of the imperial court. They had tried to leave the city with the Tartars before, but they were shot back by a rain of arrows from the last general, and they have not been seen since then. But at the end of the day, it can be guaranteed that a few of them will definitely hide in the city."
A general said: "If you dig three feet into the ground, you will find them out, and then execute them in a hurry, as an example!"
Chu Yi looked at Sun Qiu, only to hear Sun Qiu say: "The last general has sent several teams to search for the traces of the Miao and Lu families in the city."
Chu Yi nodded slightly and said: "Add more people, even if it is the three caves of the cunning rabbits, go to the sky and enter the earth, we must find them one by one to the governor!"
Sun Qiu immediately said solemnly: "The commander will obey!"
However, they said that the Miao and Lu families were frightened by a rain of arrows from Sun Qiubu at the city gate and fled back to the city.
They naturally gave up the idea of leaving the city with the Tatars. There was obviously an ambush by the imperial army outside the city. The Tatars were afraid that they would not be able to protect themselves. They followed the Tatars, fearing that they would die very badly.
Earlier, the Tatars ordered them to go out of the city to explore the road first, which showed that the Tatars did not take their life and death at all. From that time, Miao Yuan and others knew that they had no hope of relying on the Tatars.
So Miao Yuan and others hid directly in Taiyuan City.
Taiyuan City is so big, and even the few of them have been rooted in Taiyuan City for decades.
As the so-called Three Caves of Crafty Rabbit, as a big family, they naturally have more than one hiding place in Taiyuan City.
The reason why they wanted to escape with the Tartars before was because they saw the city collapse and were afraid that they would be liquidated at that time.
After all, they colluded with the Tatars, and once such a serious crime was caught, there would be no good end to it.
But now they can't get out of the city at all, so they have to choose to hide.
Miao Yuan personally scattered several rooms of the Miao family's direct line, and then let them pretend to be ordinary people in order to escape the disaster.
His Miao family has a total of four direct lineages, as long as one survives, then their Miao family is not extinct.
Not only the Miao family, but even the Lu family and other families have made the same arrangement. After all, at this time, the only thing they can do is to preserve the family inheritance as much as possible.
Otherwise, once they are all caught, the family will be wiped out.
Of course, although Miao Yuan and others made such an arrangement, they themselves did not want to be caught by the imperial court. After all, once they were caught, they knew exactly what would happen to them.
As long as he doesn't want to die, he will definitely try his best to hide.
Miao Yuan and several of his trusted servants were hiding in an inconspicuous house, which was usually taken care of.
Although it was impossible for Miao Yuan to have predicted the catastrophe of the Miao family in the early days, but due to his prudence, Miao Yuan chose several places in Taiyuan City as a hiding place in times of crisis for the family in the early years. Refuge.
On the bright side, this house belongs to a commoner's family, and even that commoner's family has lived here for decades.
It's just that this private house only has the right to reside in the commoner's home, and has no ownership. Everything here belongs to the Miao family.
The Chen family residence itself was a hiding place chosen by Miao Yuan. Back then, he entrusted it to his loyal servant Chen Zhong, and even offered money to help Chen Zhong marry a daughter-in-law.
In a flash, more than [-] years have passed, and Chen Zhong is a little old. He thought that the owner of the family would never come to their house in this lifetime.
Chen Zhong probably knew that the Miao family was in trouble because of colluding with the Tatars, especially the news of the family members such as Miao Yuan, who were beating gongs and drums in the city at the moment.
I dare not say that everyone in the city knows about it, at least most people know that the court is offering a reward to capture Miao Yuan and others.
Chen Zhong took the food from the kitchen, carefully avoided his family and ran to the cellar, but did not notice that his son Chen Kan was quietly following behind him.
Chen Zhong entered the cellar, put the food away, and said respectfully to Miao Yuan: "Master, this old servant just went out to inquire. At this moment, the official army is all over the city offering a reward to capture the master and others..."
Miao Yuan couldn't help frowning, and said to Chen Zhong: "Don't go to inquire about any news in the future, otherwise, once you reveal anything, it is very likely that my whereabouts, Master, will be exposed!"
Chen Zhong hurriedly said: "Old slave knows, he will not reveal the trace of the master."
Miao Yuan nodded slightly and said: "It's very good, you can be so loyal, it's not worth the old man's trust in you back then, if you can escape this disaster, then this house, the old man will make it truly belong to you. Chen family."
Chen Zhong heard the words and bowed down to the tunnel: "Thank you sir, thank you sir!"
Chen Kan, who had followed Chen Zhong to the outside of the cellar, clearly heard the conversation in the cellar.
Chen Kan listened to the conversation between his father and Miao Yuan with an unbelievable look on his face. He never dreamed that his father was actually a servant of the Miao family, and even their house belonged to the Miao family. instead of belonging to their Chen family.
Especially their Chen family harbouring Miao Yuan, this is a heinous crime.
In a panic, Chen Kan accidentally stepped on a branch with a click.
In the cellar, Miao Yuan's expression changed greatly when he heard the words, and he whispered, "Who!"
I saw two vigorous and loyal servants jumping out, leaving the cellar in the blink of an eye, knocking Chen Kan, who was about to turn around and fleeing, unconscious on the spot, then dragged it into the cellar and threw it on the ground.
[The second one is sent, [-] words, ask for a ticket, and give it a reward. 】
Chapter 1 The eldest son and eldest grandson [[-] more]
In the cellar, Chen Zhong also heard the movement outside, and his face suddenly showed panic.
Chen Zhong is just an honest and honest ordinary person. He can have the present day, and everything is thanks to Miao Yuan, so when he heard the movement, he almost instinctively thought that the court found out that he was hiding Miao Yuan, and the whole person almost To faint with fright.
But when he saw Chen Kan being dragged into the cellar, he couldn't help but exclaimed, "Kan'er!"
Miao Yuan looked at Chen Kan on the ground, and then at Chen Zhong. He chose Chen Zhong because he saw that Chen Zhong was honest and had no other thoughts, so he gave such a secret hiding place to him. Chen Zhong will take care of it.
A few of them quietly entered Chen's house. It can be said that apart from Chen Zhong, Chen Zhong's family members did not know about it. Even the daily food was delivered by Chen Zhong quietly.
Of the Chen family, only Chen Zhong knew that they were hiding in this cellar.
What I didn't expect was that Chen Zhong's actions were still noticed by his son. After all, Chen Zhong himself was honest, and he was completely a person who couldn't hide anything in his heart.
It would be really difficult for him to carefully deliver meals to Miao Yuan and others every day, and it would be a strange thing if he was not noticed.
Chen Zhong reacted, knelt down in front of Miao Yuan and said to Miao Yuan: "Master, this is the son of the old slave, Chen Kan, the old slave was negligent for a while, but the old slave can guarantee that he will not reveal the master. the whereabouts of the lord, please forgive Kan'er."
Although Chen Zhong is honest, it does not mean that he is a fool. He is very clear about Miao Yuan's person. If Miao Yuan really thinks that Chen Kan will threaten his safety, Miao Yuan will never Let go of Chen Kan.
With his master on one side and his son on the other, Chen Zhong instinctively pleaded for Chen Kan.
Miao Yuan glanced at Chen Zhong lightly, walked in front of Chen Kan who was lying on the ground, raised his foot and kicked Chen Kan, and suddenly saw Chen Kan's body move slightly, and slowly woke up and turned around.
Chen Kan opened his eyes in a daze, and the first thing he saw was Chen Zhong kneeling beside him, and instinctively exclaimed, "Father!"
Seeing Chen Kan wake up, Chen Zhong said to Chen Kan with a worried look on his face: "Kan'er, why are you following!"
At this moment, Chen Kan also saw Miao Yuan and the others. Although Miao Yuan and others said they were a little embarrassed, Chen Kan knew in his heart that Miao Yuan and others were felons wanted by the court.
Glancing at Chen Kan, Miao Yuan opened his mouth and said, "Chen Kan, you heard it when you wanted to come here, your father is the servant of my Miao family, and the house where your Chen family lives also belongs to us. From the Miao family, it can be said that everything from your Chen family is given by the old man..."
Chen Kan stood up, knelt down in front of Miao Yuan and said, "Chen Kan has seen Master!"
Seeing this, Chen Zhong on the side couldn't help sighing with relief, and said to Miao Yuan: "Master, Kan'er is a good boy, he will definitely keep the secret for the master!"
Glancing at Chen Kan lightly, Miao Yuan said: "Our Miao family is wanted by the imperial court. Once we are caught, we will inevitably die, but your Chen family also belongs to our Miao family. As long as the old man is arrested, so will your Chen family. We are doomed, so we are all grasshoppers on a rope, do you understand?"
Chen Kan nodded again and again: "Understood, understand, Xiao understands, even for our Chen family, Xiao will definitely keep the secret, and will not let anyone find the trace of the master!"
Nodding with satisfaction, Miao Yuan stepped forward to help Chen's father and son up and said: "The son can be taught, the old man can guarantee that as long as our Miao family can survive this disaster smoothly, then the old man will definitely have serious problems. Thanks!"
After comforting Chen Zhong and his son, Miao Yuan watched Chen Zhong and his son leave the cellar with a strange look in his eyes.
The housekeeper on the side was Miao Yuan's confidant. Even when he was running for his life, he followed Miao Yuan closely and never left. Those loyal servants were also trainees. Ordinary soldiers are still stronger.
Being able to be taken by Miao Yuan's side when he was fleeing for his life, it can be seen that no matter which of these people is Miao Yuan's trusted confidant.
The housekeeper, Miao Yu, said, "Master, are you just letting that kid go? Isn't the master afraid that he will reveal our whereabouts?"
Miao Yuan stroked his beard, glanced at the housekeeper and said, "Then according to your opinion, the housekeeper, how should this old man deal with them?"
Miao Yu narrowed her eyes and said, "Chen Zhong is honest, but he doesn't have that much thought. The reason why the master chose him back then was because he valued him, so Chen Zhong can still be trusted, but this Chen Kan, at first glance He is not a peaceful person, the old slave is afraid that Chen Kan will move his mind in a way that he shouldn't!"
A cold light flashed in the eyes of a loyal servant standing beside him: "Master, why don't I go out and kill that Chen Kan, so as not to..."
Waving his hand, Miao Yuan shook his head and said, "Killing Chen Kan is indeed easy, but have you considered the consequences of killing Chen Kan? Once you kill Chen Kan, what will happen to Chen Zhong? Kill Chen Zhong as well, otherwise, if Chen Zhong's son is killed by us, there is no guarantee that he will not hold grudges in his heart and report us to the court!"
A bitter smile appeared on Miao Yu's face.
