Chapter 110 It's good to ask Butcher Chu to leave Jiangnan!
Sure enough, when he saw from the description of Wei Guogong Xu Er that Chu Yi came directly to kill him and massacred the Zhou family and Wang family who planned to assassinate Chu Yi in the street, as well as several Jiangnan gentry families and Zhaowu general Wu Peng, Zhu Houzhao felt a deep pain in his heart.
After much of his anger dissipated, he felt that Chu Yi's bloody slaughter of these people was really satisfying and made him happy.
Zhang Yong and Gu Da, who were standing aside, naturally cast their peripheral vision on Zhu Houzhao. They only saw Zhu Houzhao's expression changing as he stared at the memorial. Suddenly, they saw a joyful expression on Zhu Houzhao's face and said: "Hahaha,
He killed well and is worthy of being my Governor Chu!"
The two of them couldn't help but be startled after hearing this, and glanced at each other subconsciously. Something seemed not quite right. Among the memorials they had seen before, although it was just a glimpse, they could be sure that almost all of those memorials were blaming Chu.
Yi was so murderous, but Zhu Houzhao's reaction didn't seem to mean blaming Chu Yidao.
Who did Chu Yi kill to deserve such praise from Zhu Houzhao?
But even if you kill the person who deserves to be killed, if you can get so many people to write a memorial for impeachment, I'm afraid it will cause too much noise.
Zhu Houzhao continued to look down and saw that Xu Ren was really not increasing or decreasing, telling exactly what Chu Yi had done in Jiangnan.
It wasn't until Chu Yi personally oversaw the execution of Wu Jingbo, the Hu family and others that the memorial came to an abrupt end, and Zhu Houzhao put down the memorial without finishing it.
After reading Xu Ren's memorial, Zhu Houzhao's mood was ups and downs. The changes in his mood were very energy-consuming, so when Zhu Houzhao recovered, he was a little tired.
Upon seeing this, Gu Dayong quickly brought a cup of hot tea to Zhu Houzhao and said, "Your Majesty, please drink a cup of hot tea first."
Zhu Houzhao took the tea and drank it slowly, while Zhang Yong also squeezed Zhu Houzhao's shoulders and said: "I just saw that your majesty was angry and happy at the same time. This really frightened the slaves. I don't know why your majesty is doing this!"
Zhu Houzhao, Zhang Yong, and Gu Dayong never acted like emperors when they were together, so Zhang Yong dared to say this.
If it had been Taizu or Chengzu, they would not have dared to talk nonsense, let alone inquire about the content of the memorial, even if they had lent Zhang Yong some courage.
Zhu Houzhao was in a much better mood now because of Xu Yan's memorial. To be more precise, it was because Chu Yi's killing spree allowed him to vent most of his anger and suddenly he felt much more relaxed.
In a good mood, Zhu Houzhao pointed to the memorial he had put down on the table and said: "This is the memorial that Wei Guogong Xu Ren eight hundred miles hastily submitted. You might as well take a look!"
When the two heard the words, they couldn't help but look at each other. Gu Dayong took the memorial, and Zhang Yong also leaned to the side and looked at it. Gradually, when they looked at the contents of the memorial, their expressions changed greatly, and their breathing became tense.
It was much more urgent. The two of them didn't look at Chu Yi's killing spree in Jiangnan like Zhu Houzhao did.
Both Zhang Yong and Gu Dayong regard Chu Yi as a potential competitive target, especially Chu Yi who poses a great threat to them. If Chu Yi can die in Jiangnan, both of them will laugh in their dreams.
The sound comes.
But look at the memorial. Xu Chu's description couldn't be clearer. As soon as Chu Yi arrived in Jiangnan, he really transformed into a madman and killed waves after waves. If the content in Xu Chu's memorial is not exaggerated,
If you think about it, Chu Yi killed at least nearly a thousand people in Jiangnan alone.
What shocked and frightened them the most was that the people Chu Yi killed were not ordinary people at all, but literati, gentry and even powerful men who had great influence in Jiangnan and even the world.
Zhang Yong and Gu Dayong looked at the memorial and felt a faint chill on their backs. Chu Yi was simply a murderer. Usually when Chu Yi was in the capital, why didn't they realize that Chu Yi was such a murderous maniac?
.
If they had offended Chu Yi, would Chu Yi kill them both like he did in Jiangnan?
Zhang Yongyong couldn't help but think of Pang Wenbin whom he saw in Yang Tinghe's house when he went to meet Yang Tinghe, Mao Ji and others not long ago. According to what Pang Wenbin said at the time, Chu Yi could never leave Jiangnan alive after entering Jiangnan.
It seemed that Jiangnan was the place of death for Chu Yi. In the end, Pang Wenbin was right. There were people in Jiangnan who really wanted to kill Chu Yi, and they took action. The key is, these people failed.
Chu Yi even massacred people in the south of the Yangtze River, suppressing everyone alive.
Zhang Yong really wants to know if Pang Wenbin, who had promised not to worry about Chu Yi's problems at the beginning and bluntly said that Chu Yi would definitely die in Jiangnan, said that he knew Chu Yifei but was not killed in Jiangnan, but those who intended to kill Chu
Yi's people were massacred by Chu Yi in turn, what kind of expression would he have?
There was a bit of a sneer on Zhang Yong's lips, and Pang Wenbin really dared to say that this was what he said that Chu Yi would definitely die in the south of the Yangtze River.
However, from Xu Yan's memorial, Zhang Yong felt that if Chu Yi had not slaughtered all the dignitaries, gentry and even literati in the south of the Yangtze River, it was because those people were blessed with great fortune.
Zhu Houzhao put down the tea cup in his hand, looked at Zhang Yong and Gu Dayong and said: "Gu Daban, Zhang Daban, you two have also read the memorial, what do you think?"
No matter what they thought in their hearts, they were not fools. Just seeing that Zhu Houzhao was in a very good mood at this moment, we knew Zhu Houzhao's attitude towards the contents of the memorial.
If Zhu Houzhao had disapproved or even mentally supported Chu Yi's murder in Jiangnan, I'm afraid Zhu Houzhao would have been furious by now, and he wouldn't be as happy as he is now.
Gu Da looked at Zhu Houzhao with a happy face and said: "Your Majesty, I think what Chu Yi did is absolutely right. Some people in Jiangnan are simply lawless. Only Chu Yi can be ruthless enough to kill them."
Last wave.”
Zhang Yong also said: "His Majesty has chosen Chu Yi as the governor of the East Factory. If this were not the case, we would really not know that Brother Chu, who is usually gentle and looks like a scholar, actually has such a side.
"
Zhu Houzhao glanced at the two of them indifferently, and seemed to hit them and said: "Everyone Chu Yi killed had a reason to kill. It was not an unprovoked killing, nor was it a killing spree!"
After finishing speaking, Zhu Houzhao didn't care about the reactions of Zhang Yong and Gu Dayong. He reached out and took out the other memorials, and then opened one of them.
This memorial was written by a minister of the Ministry of Rites, one of the Six Ministries in the South of the Yangtze River. The memorial described Chu Yi as a murderous maniac who was causing harm to the country and the people, and begged him to recall Chu Yi to the capital for severe punishment.
Zhu Houzhao calmly read the memorial and threw it aside. Then he took another memorial and glanced at it. The content was almost exactly the same as the previous one. They were all exaggerated remarks about Chu Yi's presence.
How lawless is the land of Jiangnan, causing murders?
He flipped through an envelope and threw it aside. When the contents of the memorial by Wang Hua, the Minister of Civil Affairs in Nanjing, caught Zhu Houzhao's eyes, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but feel a little warm.
Wang Hua was also selected by Emperor Hongzhi as the prince's teacher in the past, so Wang Hua can be regarded as Zhu Houzhao's teacher. Zhu Houzhao naturally had some impressions of this teacher.
The content of Wang Hua's memorial was not very different from that presented by Xu Di. Although he finally advised the emperor to recall Chu Yi to the capital, he did not propose punishing Chu Yi. He only said that if no one restrained Chu
If Chu Yi continues to kill like this, there will be big chaos in Jiangnan.
Wang Hua's memorial was very fair and did not contain any selfish thoughts. It made Zhu Houzhao's eyes wide open after reading more than a dozen memorials to Nanjing officials who were all targeting Chu Yi and wished he could cut Chu Yi into pieces.
One light.
Zhu Houzhao looked at those memorials and had some doubts in his heart, whether all the officials in Jiangnan were deceiving him. He did not expect that there were loyal officials like Wang Hua among them.
Zhu Houzhao read through dozens of memorials calmly and calmly. Even if some of the memorials slandered and accused Chu Yi, Zhu Houzhao's expression remained unchanged and he did not show any anger.
Among these memorials, only a few did not criticize Chu Yi crazily, but just discussed the matter like Wang Hua and Xu Yan. These people were silently noted down by Zhu Houzhao.
It was getting late. After reading the memorial, Chu Yi stretched his body and felt much more relaxed. He said, "Boss, I'm a little hungry. Please ask someone to prepare a meal for me!"
Jiangnan is thousands of miles away from the capital. In this era, the spread of news is very slow. Some people may not be able to leave the radius of a hundred miles from the place of their birth.
The news was spread by word of mouth. The officials and nobles in Nanjing City wished that the emperor would immediately issue an order to recall Chu Yi to the capital. They were really frightened by Chu Yi's madness.
Before they were confident enough to kill Chu Yi, no one dared to jump out and be the first to do so.
So these people rushed eight hundred miles to send the memorial to the capital, begging the emperor to recall Chu Yi.
If Butcher Chu doesn't leave Jiangnan, how can they feel at ease?
The wealthy and powerful families in Jiangnan are naturally related to the civil and military officials of the capital. It can be said that many important civil and military officials in the court were born in Jiangnan.
For example, Pang Wenbin was an important minister who was born in the south of the Yangtze River. He had the closest contact with the land of the south of the Yangtze River on weekdays. Those people wrote to the emperor while contacting their close friends in the capital. Needless to say, Pang Wenbin was the first thing they thought of.
On this day, Pang Wenbin hosted a banquet for Mao Ji in his mansion. Hu Ming, Yang Tinghe and others gathered to celebrate that they finally captured Liu Jin.
These few people help each other in the court and form a vague party. They account for the majority of the cabinet ministers. It can be said that most of the court officials are headed by them.
