Zhu Tianjiang brutally killed Zheng Shan, the guard chief of the camp on the outskirts of Beijing, in the street, and the news spread throughout all the palaces in the capital that night. These officials had been waiting for the news since nightfall. They all knew that something big was going to happen tonight, so who had the time to sleep with their wives?
In particular, Shen Baigong, the Inspector of the Department of Punishment, who witnessed it with his own eyes, seemed to have lost his soul. Every time he closed his eyes, he had nightmares. Zhu Tian descended in his mind, like a demon with fangs, and Shen Baigong spent the entire night
They didn't even dare to close their eyes.
Zhu Tianjiang returned to the mansion and immediately ordered people to diagnose and treat the wounded. Four of the people sent by the third prince Xuan Le were injured, but the injuries were not serious. These people did not stop and directly left and returned to the south of the third prince.
garden.
Zhu Tianjiang sat next to Chang Wu and said softly, "Brother Chang Wu, Xuanming is the prince, so we can't kill him yet. When our wings become strong one day, brothers will definitely kill him with our own hands to avenge you."
Chang Wu shook his head, "My lord can do this, Chang Wu is satisfied. As a gangster, I thought I would die in prison for the rest of my life, but I didn't expect that I could become an official. This can be regarded as honoring my ancestors. Sir, don't do it for me."
It affects the overall situation. After the injury is healed, Chang Wu will find a place to retire in peace, so that he will not be a drag on the adults."
Zhu Tianjiang felt guilty for a while, and patted him twice, "Don't worry, I will find the best famous doctor in the world to diagnose and treat you, and the broken tendons will definitely be reconnected. It's not my fault, even in my hometown.
It's your broken hand. If it's timely, it can be reattached. Now you can rest in peace and recuperate and don't think too much. The chief guard of our house will always be your brother Chang Wu."
Chang Wu only thought that Zhu Tianjiang was comforting him and did not take Zhu Tianjiang's words seriously. Zhu Tianjiang asked Xia Qing to stay and talk to Chang Wu while the others came to the front hall.
Zhu Yi asked worriedly, "Sir, how do you think the emperor will deal with it?"
Zhu Tianjiang looked at Zhu Yi and said calmly, "When the emperor left, he already acquiesced to me doing this. As long as Xuan Ming is not killed, the emperor will not blame him. Now the poor in Dafeng Dynasty are almost begging for food, so for Cheng
For Emperor Wu, money is more important than sons. By the way, how much money did Wang Shangqing and Sun Binglu receive in total?" He was busy arranging things for tonight, but Zhu Tianjiang didn't ask how much money he received.
"The two governments confiscated a total of 1.4 million taels, not counting jewelry and other items."
Zhu Tianjiang nodded, "Yes, there are standards now. Let's increase the heat at dawn. I don't believe they dare not turn it over."
Zhu Yi's heart tightened when he heard this, "Sir, the official rank and position are different. If you have to pay according to this figure, I'm afraid some officials may not be able to raise the money even if they sell their houses."
"We can't generalize. If there is a lot of money in the yamen, just give it a try. As long as you have money, the emperor will not do anything to me. If you don't have money, then I will be miserable." Zhu Tianjiang said silently.
Tonight's action was not reckless for Zhu Tianjiang. He did not dare to order the killing of generals in the army without Emperor Chengwu's permission. Emperor Chengwu had already predicted that Xuanming would attack at Longhu outside the capital.
, that’s why Zhu Tianjiang was given this right. Emperor Cheng Wu said that Zhu Tianjiang would not be able to tell Prince Jing and Mrs. Guo, which would cause them to worry. But what Zhu Tianjiang didn’t expect was that the eldest prince would actually treat Chang Wu
Zhu Tianjiang was so angry that he killed Xuan Ming and went out to seize the mountain and become king.
Early the next morning, King Jing was surprised to find that no officials came to surround his clan mansion. Except for the six ministers and Chu Yun, no one else showed up. No one came just in time, so King Jing was relieved.
The clan residence was quiet, but the residences of the four princes were overcrowded. Especially the residence of the eldest prince Xuanming, who was crying like a dead emperor. Zhu Daguan's ferocious behavior scared the courage of these officials. Now they can only
Huddle together and ask your master for help to see what to do.
Xuan Ming's face turned blue, and what happened last night still left him with lingering fears. Having grown so old, Xuan Ming truly felt the threat of death last night. When he thought of that stupid big iron rod, which was like smashing a wooden stake, Xuan Ming
My scalp feels numb.
There were also constant quarrels in the second prince's palace. Xuan Can was summoned into the palace by the queen early in the morning. When he came back, he finally suppressed the situation.
The harem has news channels from the harem. Concubine E was furious about what happened last night and asked the queen to issue a decree to arrest the evil thief Zhu Tianjiang. However, the queen was very calm and comforted Concubine E. The reason why Feng was able to become the
This queen has been dealing with the relationship between the old queen mother and the emperor for so many years, and it is only because of her extraordinary agility and endurance that she can stay safe.
From the last conflict with Zhu Tianjiang, the queen could see that Emperor Chengwu valued Zhu Tianjiang very much. After several days of investigation, the queen found out that Emperor Chengwu was forced by money to have no choice but to re-employ Zhu Tianjiang.
Tianjiang. In this case, if you want Zhu Tianjiang to lose the emperor's favor, you have to start with money.
The Queen and Concubine E asked the two princes to tell the ministers that they must insist on not paying any silver for these three days. When the emperor came, the ministers knelt down and admonished the palace. The two princes controlled 60% of the officials in the capital, plus
Zhu Tianjiang's decree was unpopular, and other officials would definitely respond. The queen believed that she would be able to force Emperor Chengwu to bear the pain and dismiss Zhu Tianjiang for investigation. Otherwise, the dismissal of so many officials would be enough to shake Dafeng's century-old foundation.
Compared with the boss###, the third prince Xuan Le's mansion is relatively quiet. But these officials are also panicked. Zhu Tianjiang, the evil god, does not recognize his relatives, and even the chief of the eldest prince's bodyguard dares to kill him in front of Prince Jing, and
There was something that the Third Prince didn't dare to do. He didn't want to say it openly. He didn't say much, which made everyone feel at ease.
The only place where laughter came from was the fourth prince's mansion, which was a perfect embodiment of a harmonious society. The stronger Zhu Tianjiang became, the happier they felt, and they were all proud that the fourth prince could find such a helper.
Outside the Security Procuratorate, Zhu Tianjiang ordered Wang Shangqing and Gu Zhitong to be escorted to the door, and each of them was beaten with fifty pieces of wood. These three guys were really unlucky. Their entire family fortune was confiscated and they had to be beaten every day.
After the beating, Zhu Daguan ordered Da Niu to parade the three of them through the streets. Zhu Tianjiang did this to sprinkle some more iodized salt on the injured hearts of the officials. The three guys Gu Zhitong felt so regretful, if
If God gives them another chance, they won't join the eldest prince even if they die.
Zhu Tianjiang gave three blows and sat in the lobby waiting for the officials to come and pay the money. As a result, even when his head was sweating, no one took the initiative to pay the money. Zhu Tianjiang felt anxious now, and he would not blame everyone.
, we can't arrest everyone one by one. If that happens, I'm afraid the first one to jump out and look for trouble will be Emperor Chengwu.
Zhu Tianjiang was very anxious and couldn't understand why these officials were so tough. Could it be that they were all party members in their previous lives? What happened last night didn't scare them out of their wits?
If the confrontation continues, Zhu Tianjiang will really be in trouble. Gu Zhitong and the other three are not Zheng Shan. They are court officials. If they want to be killed, they must have an imperial order.
If no one takes the initiative to pay the silver, it will form a one-sided situation. In that case, in the eyes of Emperor Chengwu, Zhu Tianjiang's decree was a failure. In order to calm the public anger, Emperor Chengwu could only take him down.
Official Zhu frowned, thinking about what countermeasures to take. At this time, an official ran in.
"Your Excellency, the Chief of the Yashen Baigong Inspection Department of the Ministry of Punishments would like to see you!"
Zhu Tianjiang was startled. What was this old guy doing here? Could it be that he wanted to record a confession about what happened last night? Zhu Tianjiang thought about it right. Such a big thing must be filed with the government office.
"Let him come in." Zhu Tianjiang ordered.
Shen Baigong is the head of the Ministry of Punishment. He killed someone in front of someone's house last night. Zhu Tianlai understood this. After a while, he saw Shen Baigong walking away with his waist bent.
Come in.
As soon as he saw Zhu Tianjiang, Shen Baigong trembled with fright, "Zhu~ Master Zhu, you are polite when you lower your rank."
"Don't mention it, we are both third-grade, and I don't dare to be an official. Come, let's have tea!" Zhu Tianjiang said politely.
Shen Baigong carefully sat down, and Zhu Tianjiang said with a smile, "Master Shen, your yamen is very busy. If you have anything to do, you can just send a messenger to tell me. I'd like you to go there in person."
This is so bad."
"Well, I have something to do. I would like to ask Mr. Zhu to lend me a moment to speak." Shen Baigong looked at Zhu Tianjiang cautiously.
"Hey! Isn't it just that? Just say no." Zhu Tianjiang was depressed, and his tone of voice was a little impatient.
"Master Zhu~can you~!"
Shen Baigong's lips were trembling, and it was difficult to speak. At this moment, Zhu Tianlai appeared in his mind, it was simply the reincarnation of Shura and the rebirth of the devil.
Zhu Tianjiang's face sank, "Master Shen, I, Zhu Tianjiang, do things one by one, two by two, and I will never put you in trouble. Don't worry, if the pressure comes from above, I will bear the burden for you."
Shen Baigong fell to his knees with a plop, "Master Zhu, your great kindness and virtue will never be forgotten~!"
"What are you doing?" Zhu Tianjiang was shocked. Is this something worth remembering forever?
"Lord Zhu, the silver has been packed in the lower official's house. I will send someone to deliver it right away! The official will never dare to conceal it. Three hundred thousand taels of silver is the entire property of the official. I hope you will be kind to me.
I just ask you, sir, not to tell anyone!"
Shen Baigong burst into tears and looked at Zhu Tianjiang tremblingly. He was really afraid that Zhu Tianjiang would kill him in a rage like he killed Zheng Shan. In Shen Baigong's eyes, this devil didn't care about the emperor at all.
With the law, anything can be done.
"What did you say?" Zhu Tianjiang was stunned.
"Ah~Xiaguan~Xiaguan remembered, it's not 300,000~ but 400,000 taels~!" Shen Baigong was so frightened that he almost peed.
Zhu Tianjiang was ecstatic, someone finally came to the door. Zhu Daguan grabbed Shen Baigong's collar with excited hands and lifted it up, "Say it again!"
"Uh~!"
Shen Baigong rolled his eyes, foamed at the mouth and fainted from fright!
