Because he saw murderous intent on Lin Fan's face. Could it be that Lin Fan was really a devil?
An executioner?
Are you addicted to killing?
"Of course I am settling a score with you for collaborating with the enemy and treason. Li Zicheng's sudden attack on Xi'an City. Doesn't this matter have anything to do with you?"
Lin Fan asked coldly.
Gudu!
All the officials present swallowed their saliva. They were the ones who did this. However, how did Lin Fan know about this?
"Mr. Lin, please don't be slanderous. We are all clean-bloods, and we don't even have much property in our families. Why do we collaborate with the enemy and treason?"
"Master Lin, there is no His Majesty in Nanjing City. Have we ever done the opposite?
I am dedicated to guarding this second capital for Your Majesty, but you actually accuse us of collaborating with the enemy and treason?"
"Master Lin, you can't be too shameless!"
Officials criticized him one after another.
Lin Fan looked at them indifferently and said: "Haha! You actually said that I am too shameless?
Well! I will settle the accounts with you properly!"
"Then Zhu Cunlan is the Sin Sect, do you know that?
What is a sin sect? He is a person who intends to rebel. How did such a person control the hundreds of thousands of troops in Nanjing City?"
"Don't tell me that you accidentally put this person in this position!"
Ding!
When Lin Fan said this, all the officials present felt cold in their hearts. This! Lin Fan must have been too ruthless, and he actually caught this matter.
"Ahem! Mr. Lin, our sect is indeed incompetent in this matter. This Zhu Cunlan has some means in this city, and when he got here, he got the support of the army!"
"Don't worry, Mr. Lin, if you leave us 50,000 people, we will definitely take good care of these 50,000 people and we will never let anything happen to Nanjing!"
"Master Lin, I apologize to you. Thank you very much for helping us get rid of this big scourge in Nanjing City!"
…
All the officials said, Lin Fan looked at them indifferently and said: "Haha! You are so shameless, you just betrayed Zhu Cunlan!"
"My lord is not someone who is easy to fool. You can't explain this matter. Moreover, my lord knows what you are thinking!"
"First fool me away, and then you can take the land back from the hands of the people. Then you can control an army of 50,000 without anyone noticing!"
"I will never let you get what you want! Come here! Kill them directly! Then confiscate all their property!"
After Lin Fan said this, all the soldiers shouted: "Yes! Sir!"
The officials were all shocked.
"Lin Fan! You! How dare you!"
"Lin Fan, you don't have His Majesty's will. If you dare to kill us, Your Majesty will definitely kill you!"
"Lin Fan, you still have a great future, don't make a mistake, we will never seize people's land, you believe in us!"
The officials shouted one after another.
However, no matter how they shouted, Lin Fan would not let them live. At this time, he would rather kill ten thousand by mistake than let one go!
As the swords fell from the hands of the soldiers, all the heads of the officials fell to the ground. Then, the army went straight to the homes of these officials and confiscated all their property.
On this day, Lin Fan harvested more than 30 million taels of silver, which shocked Lin Fan. He didn't expect that the officials in Nanjing City were so rich!
"This! How is it possible! That Lin Fan actually killed Master Wang and the others, and also directly confiscated the family property!"
"This is too courageous. Isn't he afraid of being punished by His Majesty?"
"What kind of crime are you punishing! Then Lin Fan found tens of millions of taels of silver from the hands of those adults. Your Majesty has not had time to reward him. It is impossible to kill him!"
"No, from now on we have to keep a low profile in Nanjing City. If we offend Lin Fan, we won't know how we will die!"
"Woo! My land! All those adults were killed. My land will never come back!"
"Stop crying, we are still alive without the land, but those adults are all dead!"
The homes of landlords and gentry were also wailing.
Lin Fan killed all the officials, and then placed the bodies at the market entrance for the common people to see. When the common people saw that these officials were killed, they were all frightened and inexplicable, but most of them felt relieved.
"Haha! These people deserve to die! They seized my family's ancestral property, causing my father to die of illness without money for medical treatment! My family's land is gone too!"
"What a good death! If Master Lin hadn't come and returned the land to my family, my wife and children would have starved to death!"
"If Mr. Lin hadn't come, these rubbish would still be alive and well. Our Ming Dynasty needs more officials like Mr. Lin!"
"Master Lin is really the mainstay of our Ming Dynasty and the savior of our Ming Dynasty!"
The people were all praising Lin Fan for his kindness!
However, at this time, Lin Fan was already preparing to leave for Xi'an City. In order to ensure that there would be no accidents in Nanjing City, Lin Fan left behind all 50,000 tiger and leopard riders!
Because of the system, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry would only be loyal to themselves, and since Nanjing was the second capital, there could never be any problems. Lin Fan could only do this.
Lin Fan left with 90,000 soldiers and royal guards, which frightened the landlords and gentry in Nanjing even more.
"This! This Lin Fan is so cruel! He actually took away the previous defenders in this city and left his tiger and leopard cavalry here."
"Now, we have no chance to get the land back, alas!"
"Not only that, I always feel that these tiger and leopard cavalry are more of a threat to us if they stay in the city!"
The landowners and gentry all felt great pressure, and even the merchants in the city did not dare to make any big moves.
In the capital city!
"Your Majesty! Woohoo! That Lin Fan, that Lin Fan killed all the officials in Nanjing City! There is no one left, what a bloody mess!"
"Your Majesty, Lin Fan is ambitious and ruthless. If we don't get rid of him, our Ming Dynasty will always be a big disaster!"
…
The officials knelt in the Hall of Supreme Harmony and cried loudly. When Chongzhen saw these officials, he had a look of disgust on his face.
,
Lin Fan had already sent a letter to him last night. More than 30 million taels of silver were found in the homes of officials in Nanjing City. If such a large amount of silver had been taken out earlier, the Ming Dynasty would not be in chaos at all!
They accumulated so much money in these troubled times, and then handed over the city of Nanjing to Zhu Cunlan, which shows that these people do not take him as the emperor seriously at all, and killing him ten thousand times is not enough!
