"What the hell, don't say that your Zhou family can't come up with one hundred thousand taels of silver. Even a three-year-old child knows that it's only a drop in the bucket." Chang Yu stood up, "Otherwise, Mr. Zhou, you can do whatever you want. It depends on your old man's physical condition."
Hard, Jin Yiwei's methods are still hard, farewell!"
"Don't, don't, don't! Father-in-law, please stay." Zhou Yi quickly stopped Chang Yu: "It's not that I, the Zhou Mansion, can't get it out, it's that all this money has been hidden by my father. I really don't know where it is?"
Chang Yu believes this. You must know that Liu Zongmin killed Zhou Kui's wife, Zhou Yi and his wife, and Zhou Kui didn't do anything. If Zhou Yi had known about it at the time, he wouldn't have died.
"So this matter depends on how you talk to your father, otherwise he will be imprisoned in the imperial edict and your home will be sealed. No one knows how long it will be. It may be three to five years, or it may be for as long as
When your father dies, everyone in the Zhou family..." Chang Yu sighed softly.
"My father-in-law, can you let me talk to my father?" Zhou Yi was anxious.
"Please, you shouldn't have gone far yet." Chang Yu smiled slightly.
Zhou Kui, who was being escorted by the Jinyi Guards, did not go far, he did not even leave the Zhou Mansion, but was in a side room in a side courtyard.
Zhou Yi went in!
There was a quarrel inside.
Half an hour later, Zhou Yi walked out with tears on his face: "My father said he only had 50,000 taels!"
Chang Yu sighed slightly: "I can only help so much." Then he turned to Dong Shizhong and said: "Take him away and send him to prison directly."
When Zhou Kui was escorted out of the room, his face was livid, but a little proud, but when he walked past Chang Yu, his expression suddenly changed.
"After living for such a long time, have your brains been eaten by pigs? Who wants the money? How can you get it out if you don't give it? Do you think you don't have a clear idea? Although people die for money and birds die for food, it makes your family and people die.
Are you going to leave so much money rotting in the ground, or do you really think that person doesn’t dare to play with it? Now, when is it that you need the money so much, will you be soft-hearted?"
After Chang Yu said this, he kept looking coldly at Zhou Kui who stopped. The old dog's face was hard to describe with words.
After a while, he turned to look at Chang Yu: "Can you guarantee that everything will be safe if I take this money?"
"Our family only knows that if you don't take this money, your family will be ruined." Chang Yu snorted coldly.
Phew, Zhou Kui took a long breath, narrowed his eyes and opened them again, then waved Zhou Yi over, leaned against his ear and muttered for a while.
"Can I come out in three days?" Zhou Kui looked at Chang Yu after speaking.
"Isn't this right? If you lose money, you will avoid disaster. As long as people come out, you can make more money. Maybe you just took the money away and you went to the palace to talk to the queen and said a few soft words and got it back!" Chang Yu smiled slightly.
.
"I asked you if you can come out in three days?"
"It depends on how long it will take to receive the money." Chang Yu's face straightened.
Zhou Kui snorted coldly and walked away, and the Jin Yiwei men followed immediately.
"Master Zhou" Chang Yu looked at Zhou Yi: "If you receive the money tonight, your father will be able to come out tomorrow morning. If you receive the money tomorrow morning, your father will be able to come out tomorrow night. You can do whatever you want, but the environment in the prison is not very good.
"He said and laughed and left.
Zhou Kui thought that with his status as the head of the country, he would be treated politely even if he was sent to prison, but he thought wrong. As soon as he left the gate of the mansion, a black hood was put on his head, and then he was put into a carriage and taken to Jinyiwei.
Beizhen Fusi was imprisoned.
The reason why you treat him like this is actually a kind of psychological warfare by Chang Yu. For such a person who is used to being domineering, the more you humiliate him, the more it will stimulate his desire for survival, because this will give him a chance to retaliate in the future, so he will be more
It is easy to accept the survival conditions in front of you.
Outside the door of Zhou's mansion, Chang Yu took a long breath. It seemed that it was so easy to defeat Zhou Kui. In fact, he had already racked his brains and resorted to psychological warfare. Otherwise, it would be impossible to make this old man relent by relying on intimidation and the like.
One hundred thousand taels of silver!
Chang Yu turned back and looked at the gatehouse of Zhouzhou Mansion at night. This was just the beginning. According to records, the intruders took out 700,000 taels from him. However, the secret money forced out by this incident actually included five taels that were directly stolen from him.
One hundred and thirty thousand taels, which means this is a real fortune worth millions.
If the situation turns around, it's all your fault. If you can't turn it around, hey, instead of letting the intruders take it, why not keep it for yourself. As for what method to take to take it away, emergency measures are naturally necessary. As for the merits and demerits, I will tell you later.
People commented that he just wanted to do his best to prepare and work hard to protect the Minglong Banner from falling.
"Eunuch Chang" At this moment, several Jin Yi guards ran over: "Tian Mansion did not find any sergeants from the Beijing Camp"
"Sure?"
"I'm very sure. I've checked all the servants in the Tian family, and there's really no one!"
Chang Yu raised his eyebrows, which surprised him very much. Could it be that since Tian Guifei's death, Tian Hong fell out of favor and knew he had to keep his tail between his legs?
Tian Mansion is the residence of Tian Hongyu, another father-in-law of Chongzhen.
Tian Hongyu is the father of Tian Xiuying, Chongzhen’s most beloved concubine.
Tian Xiuying was a famous beauty and talented woman in the Ming Dynasty. She was proficient in all kinds of music, chess, calligraphy and painting. She was versatile and low-key, but she suffered from depression.
Beauty usually only has two endings in stories. One is like Chen Yuanyuan, a beauty who is a disaster, and the other is a beauty like Concubine Tian, who is miserable.
Concubine Tian was the most favored by Chongzhen for her beauty and talents. As for how much she was favored, it is said that it aroused the jealousy of the virtuous Empress Zhou, who repeatedly made things difficult for her. There are even legends that the concubines and others who originally followed the previous dynasty claimed to be concubines to the emperor.
The tradition was also changed by Empress Zhou. Only the empress herself could concubine herself. For example, Concubine Tian of the East Palace and Concubine Yuan of the West Palace could only descend to one generation and call themselves daughters.
However, according to textual research, most of these are compiled by unofficial historians about Empress Zhou, but in fact the imperial concubine addressed the emperor as her father, which was indeed a strange sight in the harem in the late Ming Dynasty. As for the real reason, there is no way to verify it. Maybe it was the emperor's personal preference in the late Ming Dynasty, who liked to play with names.
Dad's game.
Emperors have always been beauties, but Emperor Chongzhen didn't have much of a taste for women. He only favored Concubine Tian in the harem. Even Chen Yuanyuan, another stunning beauty at that time, could not even take a look at her. This shows how much Tian Xiuying was favored.
.
As the saying goes, Concubine Tian is favored, and the old Tian family is deeply favored by the emperor. This is one of Chang Yu's main goals. He originally planned to hit him hard, but unexpectedly he was told that he is a law-abiding family.
, not a single Beijing camp sergeant was found at all.
Some people will say that these distinguished nobles are stupid for using soldiers from the Beijing camp as servants of the Ding family and not even changing their clothes?
It can only be said that poverty limits your imagination, and rich people are more vain.
You really don’t want to change it, why? You’re already taking advantage of it, so why spend money on him to buy equipment for nothing? Secondly, using soldiers as servants is a very shameful thing. In order to satisfy your vanity, you can’t wait to let him have it.
The servants all wear military uniforms. This is similar to the idea of opening a deck of military vehicles for future generations, mainly to show off.
Now that the hardest bone has been chewed off, Chang Yu doesn't need to be too concerned and returns to the palace immediately.
The capital is destined to be restless tonight.
In the car, Chang Yu squinted as the car swayed, feeling unusually calm in his heart. He knew that the eighth generation of Chongzhen ancestors would be greeted many times tonight, but his heart was as calm as water and there was no more waves. As the saying goes, extraordinary times call for tactics, even if
When this matter reached the ears of the mediocre people in the cabinet who were waiting to die, they had nothing to say. After all, it was reasonable. These had already been planned by him, just as he expected that Chongzhen would approve this operation.
What is Chongzhen most anxious about now? He is dispatching troops and generals and paying them. He is a bastard who doesn’t have money to earn. In addition, he already roughly knows the consequences of the future. His mood is very different from the past. To put it bluntly, it is called losing his normal state. To put it bluntly, he has lost his temper.
The white spots are abnormal.
As soon as Chang Yu's carriage arrived not far from Di'anmen, he saw more than a hundred people and more than ten carriages waiting at the gate of the imperial city. Needless to say, it was Wu Mengming and Tang Potian who had returned from a mission.
