Chapter 279
Even though we are far apart!
But when the executioner displayed the piece of meat like a butcher, Zhu Guoqiang could still feel the change in the atmosphere on the execution ground.
You can even hear the nervous screams from the officials.
For a moment, he could even feel the fear in their hearts, and all the officials' faces turned pale.
But this was exactly the effect he wanted. The officials who beheaded them before were just reminding them of the price of surrender.
But now, Hou Fangyu is used to remind them of the fate of being traitors.
The indignant people were also shocked. Although they were filled with indignation and hated the scum who proposed to dig up the Yellow River, they were still shocked by such a severe punishment.
This is Lingchi!
This is the punishment of being cut into pieces by a thousand cuts!
Not to mention ordinary people, even Zhu Guoqiang's own heartbeat accelerated several times.
Even though he had killed people with his own hands, he was very ruthless. But seeing this kind of death, his heart still felt numb.
This is so exciting!
Although his hands trembled involuntarily, he still pretended to be calm and stood up, looking at Liu Rushi and saying.
"Let's go. If so, I'll take you to the dock."
Then, he took Liu Rushi and left.
Before leaving, he gave instructions to his subordinates.
"Go down here and don't throw away the meat. After the execution is over, salt the meat and bring it to the breach. The bones will be crushed and the ashes will be thrown away to sacrifice the people's souls in heaven!"
After that, he got up and left!
Traitor!
It deserves to end like this!
If this was not the end, we may not know how many people will become traitors in the future. An iron fist may not solve the problem, but it is definitely the simplest and most effective way.
This day was undoubtedly a big day for the people of Nanjing. They witnessed a scene that they had not seen since the beating of Emperor Gao. Dozens of high-ranking officials were beheaded in a "click-click" manner.
, blood spurted out several feet away, and then a large living person was cut to pieces with a thousand cuts right there.
Ouch, this is really a rare sight! This scene is enough to talk about for generations!
But no matter how lively the scene is, it will eventually come to an end.
Just like no matter how good a place is, there is always a time when you have to leave.
But parting always carries a bit of sadness. At least for Li Xiangjun who was sitting in the carriage, she never thought that one day she would leave Nanjing in this way.
Yesterday, Master Ding, who taught her how to play music, found her adoptive mother and told her that an old friend asked him to find some stunning singing prostitutes and courtesans to give to the powerful to save their lives, and that powerful was the famous assassin De Shizi.
After learning the news, her adoptive mother agreed without hesitation. From both her and Master Ding's point of view, this was the best opportunity. After all, for her who was born in a brothel, it would be very difficult to enter the feudal prince's palace.
Even a maid is far better than a brothel.
In fact, in Li Xiangjun's mind, she had also imagined that her future would be to meet a certain talented man by chance, and then the two of them fell in love with each other, and he redeemed himself, and then they stayed together and flew together...
But now, a sudden change has changed her original idea.
"Prince De..."
With this name in his mind, Li Xiangjun couldn't help but picture a handsome young man in his mind. He was wearing golden armor and flying towards him on horseback, and then he pulled himself onto the horse...
Just thinking about it for a moment, she felt her face turn red, and even her heartbeat was trembling one after another. What on earth did that person look like?
Although she had been sent to the mansion, she did not see the prince. Maybe he was too busy.
Li Zhenli, who was sitting in the carriage together, looked at the appearance of her adopted daughter and chuckled.
"You girl, what are you thinking about?"
"No, I didn't think about anything? I was just thinking...Mom, tell me, after we leave Nanjing, can we come back again?"
Li Xiangjun hurriedly changed the topic.
Seeing her daughter's eyes looking out of the car, Li Zhenli sighed inwardly, hugged her shoulders and said softly.
"Silly girl, why are you coming back? No matter how carefree your life is on the Qinhuai River, you are just showing off and serving others. Do you know why my mother wants to redeem herself and go with you?"
They are called mother and daughter, but they are actually just sisters. Li Xiangjun's family fell into poverty and she was 9 years old when she was adopted by Li Zhenli. Li Zhenli herself was only seventeen years old. The so-called mother and daughter were actually just the rules in the brothel. The two supported each other.
It would be nice to have someone to rely on in the future. But despite this, Li Zhenli, who is also a sister and mother, still hopes to find a good way out for the two of them. Through the fluttering curtains, looking at the weeping willows of Qinhuai in the distance, Li Zhenli sighed.
"At least when you come out of the palace in the future, you will come from a good family. You, you will be from a good family when you enter the palace, you know? Even if you... leave the palace, you will be from a good family."
Of course, Li Zhenli still has a mentality of trying to climb up to the throne. This is even the reason why she left the brothel, just to help her daughter gain a foothold.
"Well, my daughter knows..."
Li Xiangjun felt extraordinarily safe as she leaned against her adoptive mother. Just at this moment, the noise outside the carriage reached the car, and the words of people outside the car could be vaguely heard.
"Hurry up, hurry up, if you don't go, you won't be in a hurry!"
"what are you looking!"
"The great traitor Hou Fangyu was cut into pieces with a thousand cuts!"
"Who is Hou Fangyu?"
"That's the one who came up with the idea to dig up the Yellow River!"
…
The words of passers-by outside the car made Li Xiangjun take a look outside the car, and then whispered in his heart.
"Others say that the prince is easy to kill, but he only kills scum like Hou Fangyu! Such a person should really be cut into pieces..."
…
There is no more peach blossom fan in this world!
After Liu Rushi and the others left Nanjing together with the four Qinhuai singers sent by Qian Qianyi, Zhu Guoqiang spoke silently in his heart.
Among those four people, there was actually Li Xiangjun!
Liu Chengyin accidentally planted Liu Chengyin. Although he was fascinated by the "Eight Beauties of Qinhuai", he did not deliberately look for it, but now he has Liu Rushi, and she helped him "rob" Chen Yuanyuan, and now there is another Li Xiangjun, hey
, if there is another one, the eight beauties of Qinhuai will enter my bed more than halfway.
It's not enough for a table of mahjong.
Otherwise, go look for it on the Qinhuai River?
Despite his thoughts, Zhu Guoqiang had no free time to go to Qinhuai River in the next few days. After all, he knew very well that not only would he have to leave Nanjing in a short time, he would even have to "return" Nanjing.
For the imperial court, things in Nanjing still need to be arranged.
After all, the lieutenants of the army have a lot of properties in Nanjing. Especially after the lieutenants of the army killed those honorable ministers, Zhu Guoqiang was able to reward them with many mansions and property belonging to the honorable ministers. Now that he leaves Nanjing, he still has to give them
They explained it one by one.
"Things are dead, but people are alive. It's just a few houses and a few acres of farmland. These things are not a big deal. However, the prince must tell them these things. After arriving in Liaodong, he will help them build new houses and new residences. , there is no need to worry about this.”
In the Yamen of Yingtian Mansion, Wan Shouqi continued to speak when he saw that the prince just nodded his head and showed no other expression.
"The key is the slaves of each family. The house can be built new, but whether or not the slaves who serve others can be taken away, and how to take them away, is a problem."
In fact, these slaves were borrowed together with the house, and they were all generous to others, but I have to admit that the effect of using stolen things to attract people's hearts is indeed very good. Ming Qing's robbery and then sitting on the ground to divide the internal system, the effect It is indeed remarkable, not only boosting morale, but also uniting people's hearts.
In fact, to put it bluntly, grabbing money, grabbing food, and grabbing women can fully stimulate people's fighting spirit in any era. Even if Zhu Guoqiang did not do it so nakedly, sharing rewards for slaves is still indispensable.
"Since we have rewarded them, let's take them away!"
Zhu Guoqiang said without question. Since it is a gift given to others, it will naturally be taken away. Shouldn't it be left here to benefit others?
"Don't ask about this matter. I will arrange for other people to take charge of this matter."
The people from the Peacock Flag would leave by boat first, and just let the slaves leave with them. However, after a pause, Zhu Guoqiang said.
Chapter completed!
