These sensational things were enough to make the emperor furious. What's more, the personal experience of his son made Zhu Yuanzhang's forehead veins twitching, and he made no secret of his murderous look.
"Why has no one ever reported these things? Zhongshu Sheng, what does Yushitai do? Will Fengyang Mansion just let them do whatever they want? Does Zhu Xiang, the governor, eat shit?!" Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were fierce.
He looked at Shen Liu Niang and said:
"You just let them slaughter you and no one sues you?"
"Is it useful to sue the officials? Fengyang Mansion is completely their accomplice!" Shen Liuniang looked at Zhu Yuanzhang without fear and said loudly: "Anyone who dares to sue the officials will definitely suffer brutal revenge within a month! Even
They would also post the plaintiff’s complaint on their door as a provocation, so that the neighbors would know that the government and them are wearing the same pants!”
"It's useless to sue the officials, but Beijing can control it! The Dengwen Drum we set up outside Fengtian Gate is not just for decoration!" Zhu Yuanzhang blushed and had a thick neck. He had never been so embarrassed before, and he was already furious.
"Then we have to be able to reach Nanjing!" Shen Liuniang said angrily: "My eldest brother and several others wanted to go to Beijing to file a complaint, but as soon as the ship left Fengyang, they were intercepted and killed by the so-called Japanese pirates.
The Japanese pirates were really powerful. They were able to penetrate hundreds of miles inland and come to the Imperial Township to kill people!
"And not only did they kill people, they also tortured people's hearts. The government sent my brother's and his head back to each family, saying that they would help us collect the remains, but every family only saw the heads but not the bodies." Shen Liuniang said sadly: "It's pitiful.
My brother is still missing his head and body.
"Everyone who was alive was also convicted of being a bandit, and all their family property was confiscated. The men were sent to Xiu Zhongdu, and the women were divided among the noble families. This is how civilian girls were sent to Li You as slaves."
If it had been anyone else, it would have been enough to get to this point. But Zhu Yuanzhang would not. As an extremely detail-oriented person, he must break the casserole and get to the bottom of it.
"Then how did you escape?"
Shen Liu Niang told him that she escaped two years later, while all the female relatives went to the streets to watch the lanterns during the Lantern Festival. However, before she could escape far, the Li family servants caught up with her, and when she had no way out, she closed her eyes and jumped into the river.
Unfortunately, she was rescued by Han Zhixian, who was patrolling the embankment. After asking about the situation, Han Zhixian hid her in a prison and escaped the Li family's search.
"Then one day, he told me that the opportunity had come, and then he tried to send me to them." After Shen Liuniang finished speaking, she looked at the five brothers who had changed into dragon robes and transformed into the princes of the Ming Dynasty. She was a little dazed.
He said: "Looking at their desolate state at that time, I would never have imagined that the five of them were actually princes, otherwise I wouldn't have filed a complaint..."
"Nonsense, our life had already improved by then." Zhu Fan objected.
"Just, just, you can eat meat every meal."
"Everywhere I go, people know me. I am so popular!" Zhu Di also disagrees: "There are also a group of brothers from the Hong family class who drink from big bowls and eat large pieces of meat. They are very happy."
"Shut up, you guys." Zhu Yuanzhang rolled his eyes at them. This prince of Ming Dynasty must be too satisfied.
Boss Zhu asked Shen Liu Niang again what happened on the day she filed the imperial complaint and what happened to her later.
When he heard that Shen Liu Niang was hung upside down by Li You, first whipped, and then set on fire, his lips that had been tightly pursed finally curled up slightly.
"Okay. We have always felt that simply beheading and cutting in half would be too cheap for those extremely vicious people." Zhu Yuanzhang said with a ferocious smile:
"We have to prepare the most special way to die for them, to be worthy of the crimes they committed! So we always have to rack our brains to give them a way to die that they will never forget. This time, it saves us the trouble of thinking. "
As he spoke, he ordered Liu Ying:
"Move the swing frame in Li You's garden to the Daming Gate. Then use the money taken from his house to buy 10,000 chickens, saying that we will treat the whole city to roast chicken, and then we can also take a look at the Ming Dynasty. Roast people alive!"
"Yes." Liu Ying responded in a deep voice.
Zhu Zhen's face turned pale when he heard this. I wonder, is your father so fierce? You don't need to be judged by a judge, and you don't even see Li You, so you just want to roast him?
Isn’t this Ming Dynasty not classified? Is it appropriate for children under the age of twelve to hear this?
"Father, it is better to try first and then judge." Fortunately, there was a prince who reminded Lao Zhu: "There should always be a chance for the offender to speak up and defend himself."
"What argument is there? Isn't it enough for my brothers to see what they saw with their own eyes? His confession is no longer needed!" Zhu Yuanzhang said with a dark face: "Boss, which article in the "Da Ming Law" allows one person to kill another person alive? Roasted to death without punishment?"
"Even if the crime is indefensible, according to the "Great Ming Law", if someone commits a murder but is injured but does not die, the person who created the intention will be hanged." The prince said softly: "Hanging is acceptable, but roasting on a fire..."
"They're all dead anyway. Let's roast them to let everyone relieve their hatred and wake up some people. It's considered waste." Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hands and said: "This matter is settled. The next person to be interrogated is There is no need to waste time on him."
"But the ministers will say that the nephew of the Duke of Korea was roasted because he offended the prince." The prince persisted and said in a deep voice: "This will affect the prestige of the father and may also damage the reputation of the younger brothers. damage."
"..." When it came time to get down to business, none of the brothers dared to interrupt, so they could only listen obediently.
"Okay, if you want to go through the motions, just go." Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at the prince helplessly and said: "And that Ding Bin, who dares to arrest my son, the prince of the Ming Dynasty, what crime should he deserve?"
"Father, he who does not know is not guilty." The prince still said helplessly: "He can only be held accountable for killing people without permission and intercepting complaints."
"You said this crime is not a light one." Zhu Yuanzhang gave the boss a look.
"One is one, two is two, it has nothing to do with the severity, it has to be decided like this." Zhu Biao insisted: "And Ding Bin must be tried before he can be convicted."
"Okay, okay." Zhu Yuanzhang smiled bitterly and said to the other five sons: "Look, your eldest brother is so majestic, even the father has to obey him."
"If you are right, you must listen!" Zhu Zhen immediately agreed with his elder brother. He would not spoil Lao Zhu.
"Adults speak, children should not interrupt." Zhu Yuanzhang glared at the King of Chu, "We can't do anything to the boss, but we can't deal with you, the sixth child?"
"That's right, eldest brother is also doing it for the good of our father and the Ming Dynasty." Unexpectedly, as soon as Lao Liu opened his mouth, several brothers quickly joined in and they all formed a conditioned reflex.
"Think twice, father, if you don't listen to big brother, you will suffer a lot in front of you!"
"Okay, okay, let's try first and then decide. Is that okay now?" Zhu Yuanzhang stopped chanting and finally gave in. He stood up in dismay, and when he walked to the door, he dropped a question from his soul:
"Fuck, who is the father?"
