The Most Powerful Man in the World

With a slight smile, Duan Ping said to Mu Zhai: "Sir, what you said is very true, how can you compare your vision and courage with your gentleman, and let him be arrogant for a while, this Jiangnan is destined to be the place where his bones are buried. !"

Duke Mu Zhai sighed slightly: "It's a pity Master Feng, it's just that Master Feng didn't grasp the opportunity, otherwise why would there be today's disaster."

It can be said that everyone knew the situation at that time. It just depends on who will attack first. As a result, Chu Yi attacked first, and Feng Ji, who was one step behind, was naturally a prisoner, and even his life was involved.

Duan Ping's eyes narrowed, and he said slowly, "Brother Feng is also considered to be benevolent.

At the Duke of Wei's mansion, Wei Guozheng was playing chess with Fan Heng with a smile at the moment.

It can be said that Fan Heng has been living in Duke Wei's mansion for the past two days. He saw a chess piece in Xu Chu's hand falling, and the servant next to him took the tea and said to Fan Heng, "Fan Gong, as you see it, the Governor of Chu will be there. Wouldn't you choose to give up at this time?"

Fan Heng paused for a moment and said with a light smile, "Our family really doesn't know the governor's mind. I don't know what the old prince thinks?"

Xu Pengju on the side couldn't help but look at Xu Chu. After all, they received news not long ago that Chu Yi sent someone to take down the Hu clan on the charge of treason, and the Hu clan even kept dead soldiers to defy the imperial army. It can be said that Even the gods can't save the Hu family.

With a single order, a wealthy family that had been entrenched in Jiangnan for nearly a hundred years was destroyed. Xu Peng was amazed by Chu Yi's methods. In his opinion, Chu Yi should stop now.

Hearing Fan Heng discussing with his grandfather whether Chu Yi would quit, Xu Pengju naturally pricked up his ears.

Xu Chu laughed, put down the teacup in his hand, grabbed a chess piece and placed it on the chessboard: "As the saying goes, there is no regret in making a move, and it is the right way to pursue a victory. If this master is not mistaken, the destruction of the Hu clan is just the beginning. That's it!"

"What? The destruction of the Hu family is just the beginning!"

Xu Pengju couldn't help but be surprised. If it's true what his grandfather said, doesn't that mean that there will be a bloody storm that will swept the entire Nanjing city and even Jiangnan?

Seeing Xu Pengju's reaction in his eyes, Xu Chu lightly glanced at Xu Pengju and smiled at Fan Heng: "Haha, Duke Fan, your dragon is about to be slaughtered by this gentleman!"

The long street where the Dongchang stronghold was located was full of blood, and the bodies of the mob had been cleaned up, but the bloodstains on the long street were so dazzling.

Walking on this long street, I couldn't help but feel hairy in my heart, and there seemed to be the mourning sounds of the mob in my ears.

A carriage came slowly, and it was Chu Fang who had been ordered by Chu Yi to capture Hu Ding.

Hu Ding was pushed down, his body swayed, and he staggered and followed Chu Fang into the large courtyard.

As soon as he walked into the yard, Hu Ding noticed the figure in the yard.

Chu Yi turned his back to Chu Fang and Hu Ding, but he was looking at a statue. Hu Ding just glanced at it and recognized that the statue was Yue Wumu's.

The East Factory enshrines the portraits and statues of Yue Fei. As a stronghold of the East Factory, it is not unusual to have such a statue of Yue Fei.

Chu Fang stepped forward and whispered: "Professor, Hu Ding has already brought it."

Chu Yi turned around slowly, looked at Hu Ding with calm eyes, and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Chu has been famous for a long time in the name of the Hu family head, but he never thought that he would be in such a situation today. See you."

Hu Ding is indeed a tycoon who can swallow [-]% of the salt industry in the south of the Yangtze River. He has his own spirit. He glanced at Chu Yi and said with a sneer: "It's just that Hu has underestimated the governor of Chu. Lord. If you want to kill or slash, please listen and respect."

Chu Yi sat on the Taishi chair, took the tea, and smiled coldly at Hu Ding: "Chu is not big-hearted. Has the Hu family ever thought that the Hu family will be wiped out because of your single thought?"

Hu Ding's body froze when he heard the words, and then he struggled violently, but the two fans behind him held him tightly, unable to break free at all.

With red eyes, Hu Ding stared at Chu Yi and roared: "The robber, you slaughter the innocent, you will not die..."

Chu Fang stepped forward and waved his hand and slapped Hu Ding a few times. Suddenly Hu Ding's cheeks were red and swollen, and blood flowed down the corners of his mouth, but Hu Ding didn't seem to notice, and still stared at Chu Yi with a look that could not wait to tear Chu Yi apart. endlessly.

Seeing this, Chu Yi waved his hand and said, "Let's escort down. When the members of the Hu clan are escorted, the official punishment will be chosen on the next day, and the decision will be executed!"

At this moment, the sullen Shi Kui strode forward, bowed down in front of Chu Yi and said solemnly, "Report to the governor, the Hu clan raised dead soldiers to fight against the imperial army, and the last general has already broken through the Hu clan's mansion and beheaded him. Hu Guowei, the young master of the Hu clan, has been arrested and brought to justice today!"

Hu Ding, who was being escorted down, heard Shi Kui's words clearly, and suddenly it was like a thunderclap. Even if he was already mentally prepared, when he learned from Shi Kui's mouth that the Hu clan had been taken down by the coefficient, Hu Ding's whole person was shocked. The son lost his energy and spirit, like walking with corpses.

Chu Yi nodded with satisfaction and said to Chu Fang: "Detain the people of the Hu family."

Shi Kui, who bowed down in front of Chu Yi, raised his head and looked at Chu Yi and said, "Professor, do you want to continue..."

Chu Yi said with a bit of coldness on his face: "Jiangnan has been in peace for a long time, so let the governor of Jiangnan come to smear the blood of Jiangnan and cut down these worms of the country! I am afraid that many people think that the governor will give up at this moment. , it's a pity that they misunderstood the Lord!"

The terrifying murderous intention was revealed from Chu Yi, even Shi Kui, who was kneeling in front of Chu Yi, couldn't help trembling, and a sea of ​​corpses and blood appeared in front of him.

"The last commander will definitely live up to the expectations of the Governor, and the blood will stain the south of the Yangtze River!"

Chu Yi stood up suddenly, stepped forward to help Shi Kui up, patted his shoulder and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty has been suffering from Jiangnan for a long time. If this big net covering the entire Jiangnan can be torn apart this time, Your Majesty will definitely not. Be stingy with rewards."

Hearing what Chu Yi said, the last worry in Shi Kui's heart vanished. The wealthy family, Shilin, and Xungui weaved a great net to cover the sky in the south of the Yangtze River. This invisible net shrouded the sky, and even the emperor's will was difficult to deliver. , even the release will be misinterpreted.

If the emperor didn't want to clean up Jiangnan, why would Liu Jin send tax collectors to collect taxes, and Chu Yi didn't dare to kill in Jiangnan.

Thinking of the long list of families in his arms, there were as many as a dozen or so, Shi Kui couldn't help but feel a chill, but at the same time, there was a hint of excitement in his heart.

Chu Yi strode towards the door, and said to Shi Kui at the same time: "General Shi, order the troops, the next one is afraid that only the Governor will stand up in person, and you will be able to attack!"

[Second update, new week, ask for tickets and reward. 】

Chapter 82 This is not the Forbidden City!

Shi Kui was shocked when he heard the words, and a name could not help but emerge in his mind. The family involved on the list was already firmly in his heart, so when Chu Yi said that he would go to the battle in person , Shi Kui knew who Chu Yi was going to attack this time.

Uncle Wu Jing, Zhao Hongze, whose ancestor was Zhao Fu, the Marquis of Wu Jing who was appointed by the emperor during the Chenghua period. Among the nobles in Nanjing city, Uncle Wu Jing is just an uncle, and his title seems to be incomparable to those of the families of princes and princes, but do not Forget it, it was only a few decades ago that Uncle Wu Jing was there.

If he was able to be named a marquis back then, it is conceivable that his ancestor must have been a prosperous figure. In just a few decades, the influence of Wu Jingbo's family in this Nanjing city is even stronger than that of many outdated princes.

The reason why Wu Jingbo was targeted by Chu Yi was precisely because this Wu Jingbo was in charge of the inspection of the salt industry in the south of the Ming Dynasty. To be precise, the institution responsible for the salt industry set up by the imperial court in Jiangnan was secretly controlled by Wu Jingbo's family.

In this case, Wu Jingbo's influence in the south of the Yangtze River can be imagined. Besides, Wu Jingbo has the jurisdiction of a guardhouse and has the right to command the troops and horses.

Such a powerful, rich and powerful person, even though he is just an uncle, is far from being comparable to those powerless princes.

I don't know how many pairs of eyes have been staring around this stronghold in the East Factory. After all, the movement from Chu Yi is too great.

They slaughtered hundreds of mobs, stained the streets with blood, and then took down the Hu clan on the charge of treason. I don't know how many dignitaries in Nanjing City were frightened and looked sideways.

Shi Kui escorted the people of the Hu clan back, and those people finally breathed a sigh of relief. Since the purpose of killing chickens and warning monkeys has been achieved, it is time for Chu Yi to live in peace.

However, not long after Shi Kui entered the courtyard that was like a devil's cave in the eyes of many, Chu Yi actually walked out of that courtyard.

Shi Kui shouted: "Everyone, get ready to line up and set off with this general!"

Immediately, the well-trained elites lined up neatly and looked at Chu Yi and Shi Kui in unison.

Chu Yi turned over and got on a horse, only to hear a long neigh, and the rumbling team started.

"No, what is Butcher Chu doing?"

"Go and report to your lord, Chu Yi leads the army to set off, the purpose is unknown!"

"My God, isn't this Killing Star still willing to give up?"

But everyone who saw this scene changed their expressions and left quickly.

In a courtyard, the head of the Wu family and the family head of the family who died because of Chu Yi's stinging were all gathered here.

Not long ago, the Hu clan was wiped out cleanly by Chu Yi, and the news came that the family was confiscated and exterminated, and all these people, headed by the Wu clan head, were stunned.

Although they can also be called a party of tyrants, their influence will at most spread to the surrounding areas. Compared with the Hu clan, which controls [-]% of the salt industry in the south of the Yangtze River, it is far worse.

In front of Chu Yi, such a family that could be called a behemoth turned out to be so vulnerable. In just half a day, the dust fell and disappeared.

Thinking of some of their small actions against Chu Yi in private, the Wu family's head and others were really restless like ants on a hot pot, and their backs were soaked wet during the beginning of autumn.

Fortunately, after taking the Hu clan, Cao Shaoqin stayed behind to raid the house, and Shi Kui escorted the Hu clan back to the Dongchang stronghold. Seeing this, the Wu clan master and others were relieved.

At this time, the head of the Wu family was raising his glass and said to several people: "Everyone, it seems that the butcher won't dare to act recklessly after taking over the Hu family!"

A patriarch said with a relaxed expression: "In the end, Chu Yi is nothing more than an imperial envoy, even if the emperor does not dare to mess around, his ability to take down the Hu clan is already his limit, if he messes up again, I'm afraid that in the city of Beijing, those big men may not sit idly by!"

A fat man stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Yes, if Chu Yi is smart, he should know the principle of accepting it when he sees it, otherwise he offends too many people, I'm afraid he won't be able to get out of this Jiangnan water town!"

A ruthless look flashed in the eyes of the Wu family's patriarch: "Hmph, do you think he can still leave Jiangnan alive? I'm afraid I don't know how many people want to take his head."

"Hahaha, come, Chu Yi will die soon, everyone drink this cup!"

The atmosphere was lively, and suddenly there was the sound of hurried footsteps, seeing two Wu family servants hurriedly approaching from a distance: "Patriarch, the big thing is bad, Chu Yi, he led the army..."

"Clap!"

"Pfft!"

Just now, all of them were flushed with red light, and the excited discussants, Chu Yi, and all the patriarchs, who were dying soon, all turned pale, their wine glasses fell to the ground, and some people sat up and trembled all of a sudden. .

"It's over, my Wu family is over..."

The head of the Wu family, including everyone present, saw that the servant looked flustered. After listening to the servant's words, the first thought was that Dongchang must have discovered their small movements, and Chu Yi personally led the army to arrest them.

"Wu Ziming, it's all you, everything is your fault..."

The previous fat member suddenly stretched out his chubby finger and roared at the distraught Wu family head.

Another Patriarch also pointed at the Wu Patriarch and said, "Wu Ziming, if you didn't insist on taking revenge on Chu Yi, why would we be here..."

"We're done, I'm going to kill you, Wu Ziming, it's all your fault!"

The two servants who ran over looked at the several patriarchs who were scrambling together with puzzled expressions on their faces, but as loyal servants of the Wu family, they naturally couldn't sit and watch their patriarch be beaten, and hurriedly stepped forward to protect Wu The owner of the family.

The embarrassed Wu family owner said with a look of horror: "Did Chu Yi lead the army to surround the manor?"

A domestic servant said stunned: "Master, Chu Yi led the army away, I don't know where to go, not to our Wufu!"

"What? What did you say!"

Wu Ziming grabbed the servant as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw, and his face was full of infinite surprise.

The servant was taken aback by Wu Ziming's madness, but he also reacted at this moment, maybe his master had misunderstood.

Gulu swallowed, and the servant said in a trembling voice, "Master, it means that Chu Yi did not lead the army to our Wu family!"

After confirming this, Wu Ziming let out a long sigh of relief and laughed.

The patriarchs who had beaten Wu Ziming at the beginning also understood at this moment. Thinking of the unbearable scene of everyone just now, they looked at each other, glanced at the Wu family patriarch, and left.

Wu Jingbo Mansion

In a hall, Zhao Hongze, the uncle of Wu Jing, was sitting on the chair of the Grand Master at the moment, and a few Yan Xiao and a few military men with military aura were standing there respectfully at the bottom.

Zhao Hongze glanced at the few Yan Xiao, drank a cup of tea, and then said, "Everyone, the Hu family is over, and the vacant market, Bengbo decides to divide it up among your families."

Those Yan Xiao were overjoyed when they heard the words, and they restrained their excitement and said, "Don't worry, Uncle, I will definitely not lose Uncle's money!"

He waved his hand and said, "You guys go down!"

Several Yan Xiao were so excited that they left, leaving Zhao Hongze and his confidants in the army in the hall.

One of the hundreds of households flashed a fierce light in his eyes and said: "Sir, the tax collectors sent by the eunuch Liu Jin have already begun to check the land in the guardhouse. Clearly..."

Another one hundred households frowned and said, "Sir, the emperor is trying to force me to death, but I can't wait, but Liu Jin will take away the fertile land that we have accumulated so much!"

Looking at a few indignant subordinates, Zhao Hongze put down the teacup, coughed lightly, and immediately several hundred households calmed down and looked at Zhao Hongze.

Zhao Hongze chuckled and said, "It's just a few tax supervisors, why are you panicking! Obediently let them cooperate, whoever dares to trouble us, we will send him back to the west!"
