Chapter 191 Wealth and Confusion
Although everyone knows that when the tacit understanding has been broken and the rules have collapsed, this matter will not be good and will be destined to flow into a river of blood.
However, when the storm really swept, everyone realized that the storm was as surging as it had exceeded the imagination of all the people in the game.
The Jinyiwei of the East Factory beheaded thousands of people overnight, which truly interprets what it means to kill the wrong person and not let go, and what it means to flow into a river of blood!
The bloody smell of soaring into the sky in the various places in the city could even be smelled several miles away. The corpse transporters from all over the city gathered together day and night, and did not transport the corpses for several days or nights!
And this is just the beginning.
House search and family extermination! In this storm, it is constantly taking turns!
Dukes who live with the country, countless counts and marquises...
These wealthy families of generations...
Not many people are spared!
However, the strangest thing is that there is a tragic situation on the noble side, while there is silence on the court officials and civil servants.
The butcher knife raised high never fell.
This strange scene made the civil servants panic. After all, no one would foolishly think that Li Xiu, the Marquis of Zhenbei, who had always been inconsistent with them, would be ruthless to them!
You know, the storm has been going on for many days, and the soldiers and generals in the city have not moved at all.
If it was said that when Taizu founded the country, he was working in a shackle, but now, the big-headed soldiers have directly settled in various departments and acted nakedly in the name of guards!
Such treatment also made these scholars and officials who have always claimed to be noble and secretly hate them. Even if the soldiers threaten them, it could not stop the enthusiasm of the scholars and officials.
Dong Zhuo and Wang Mang, Li Xiu seemed to wear this hat more firmly.
But now, even if the emperor impeaches the impeachment, it will have no effect.
In the past, memorials could at least be before the emperor. No matter how the emperor handled it, it could at least satisfy the literati and doctors' mentality of smearing eye drops.
But now that the army entered the city, the emperor gave the will, the Marquis of Zhenbei was once again granted supreme power.
In the name of Qin Cha's plan to rebel, Li Xiu could even easily interfere in various departments of the court.
Even if there is a memorial that should have been sent to the Lijian Supervisor, Li Xiu can ask for instructions and read it if necessary.
Now that I impeached Zhenbei Hou, who is really suing me...
After understanding this, the court officials decisively gave up their impeachment intentions.
Outside Chengtian Gate, soldiers stood tall, but since the massacre began, the square was inevitably filled with officials and students who held high memorials and knelt on the ground to petition.
Li Xiu did not interfere in this at all.
In fact, he always admired and even tolerated the integrity of the scholars and officials of this era.
Even if this integrity is now standing opposite him, it is impossible to retain such a precious quality with a slight concession.
As for this indifference beyond the integrity...
Scraping the bones to heal the wound, long pain is worse than short pain!
However, how to treat this special group of civil servants and officials, how to scrape bones and grasp the standards, is exactly the problem that Li Xiu has been thinking about now.
After all, if you kill a noble person, you will kill him. Although there is an impact, it will not be too great compared to the whole world.
The most important thing is that the army and the Jinyiwei have a foundation. He swept away all the dirt and killed more, he can quickly replenish people, which will not cause any turmoil, nor will the situation be corrupted.
But civil officials are different. He is in charge of the army and Zhu Youjian is in charge of the government. All of this should have been what Zhu Youjian did and is also the foundation of Zhu Youjian!
If Zhu Youjian was fine, Li Xiu would naturally not care so much. All the messes were something Zhu Youjian should worry about.
But now, it is not that easy to do whatever you want by him!
Killing is simple, and there is a big excuse for conspiracy. If you take a knife and kill, you will kill whoever you catch.
But after the killing, who will add it, who is this person, and why is the faction behind it...
These problems are not clear, and no matter how many killings are, they will be useless, and will only cause turmoil in the world and the situation will be even more corrupt.
Of course, compared to this issue, Li Xiu was more worried about Zhu Youjian's injuries.
Although it seems that the worries of life are gone now, in fact, the internal organs have damaged Zhu Youjian's body.
Even though this disaster is difficult to survive and the injury is healed, there is no solution to the sequelae of the injuries and the damage to the body even though Li Xiu’s current medical skills are now.
In this way, Zhu Youjian's body seemed to have a time bomb installed, and no one knew when this bomb would explode.
Moreover, this bomb is still damaging Zhu Youjian's body at all times, not to mention that once this bomb cannot control its explosion, then...
"There is no end to manpower, but there is no way to make things happen!"
Put down the traditional Chinese medicine book in his hand, Li Xiu gently stroked his forehead, and between his eyebrows, a touch of worry was difficult to dissipate.
The assassin was ruthless, and the wound was in the internal organs, which could save his life. It was already considered snatching people from the King of Hell.
As for the others, even though Li Xiu had systematic help, it was difficult to use the medical skills of this era!
Li Xiu pursed his lips, was silent for a long time, sighed again, and then turned his gaze to the booklets on the desktop.
Most of these are statistics on the recent harvest of family confiscations and tribes.
Although the three major Dukes involved in the case have not yet been determined and the civil servants have not moved at all, the harvest of just some Jinyiwei and nobles has become an astronomical figure, which is much more terrifying than any previous harvest.
The amount of nearly eight million taels of silver alone is as good as the total tax in the past two years.
But this money is far from the focus of this harvest.
The amount of fields that are difficult to count, the mountains of food and grass, the various assets all over the Ming Dynasty, and the huge hidden population accounts!
Each item is a terrifying wealth.
These gains alone are enough to easily supply hundreds of thousands of troops to the Beijing Jixuan Mansion for decades!
Not to mention, this cleaning has not ended yet!
The harvest of wealth and materials will be greatly supplemented, although this harvest is only temporarily and cannot be sustained.
However, with this terrifying wealth, it is enough to support the transformation of this ancient empire.
As long as the transformation is completed, money will be just a number for a country.
Li Xiu was once full of confidence in this regard.
But now...
The originally bright future has been cast a shadow and an unknown layer due to this drastic change.
If...once the sky collapses...
Where should he... go?
