Not far away, Chu Yi and his group gradually slowed down. After all, a sedan and a dozen people in front of them almost blocked the official road.
Just at this time, Han Tong's roar came, and Chu Yi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. Butcher Chu, could it be that he was the one who failed?
Listening to Han Tong's confident roar, especially his clamoring to avenge his dead son, Chu Yi couldn't help but feel a little curious in his confident tone.
What on earth made this man so confident that he could kill himself?
After finally getting up, the housekeeper secretly glanced at Chu Yi who was not far away. At this moment, Chu Yi looked towards them with interest. With just one glance, the housekeeper fell to the ground again and cried: "
Master, stop scolding, Butcher Chu...Butcher Chu is already here!"
"What? Where is Butcher Chu? I want to cut him into pieces. I, Han Tong, only have one son, Hui'er. Once Hui'er dies, my Han family will be extinct. Under the Nine Springs, how can I have the face to meet him?
O ancestors!"
While talking, Han Tong turned around and looked around, and immediately saw Chu Yi and his party not far away. When he saw Chu Yi and others, Han Tong froze.
The soldiers who were full of murderous spirit were looking at him with strange eyes. The strange eyes made Han Tong feel a little panicked.
If Han Tong still couldn't recognize Chu Yi now, then he would really be blind. Especially when he saw those dozen or twenty literati who were chained in shackles, Han Tong couldn't help but
With a sway of his body, he suddenly understood.
It turns out that the Butcher Chu that the book boy mentioned was not just a butcher selling meat as he imagined, but the ruthless and murderous governor of Dongchang, Chu Yi, Butcher Chu!
"Damn Han Xiaowu!"
Han Tong roared in his heart, Han Xiaowu did not think highly of Han Hui, and in the end, he made his words unclear, causing him to come to Chu Yi to fight for his life.
Especially when Chu Yi was staring at him, Han Tong felt that his legs were weak, and he couldn't help but fell to his knees, wailing: "Old Han Tong doesn't know how powerful the governor is, so please give him a lot of help in the collision."
Don't be like an old man."
Chu Yi drove forward, looked down at Han Tong who was lying on the ground, and said with a slight curl of the corner of his mouth: "Except Mr. Han, if Mr. Chu heard it right, you seem to be seeking revenge from Mr. Chu!"
Han Tong almost cried when he heard this. He shook his head repeatedly and said: "No, no, the governor must have heard wrong. Even if I borrow 10,000 courage from the old man, I don't dare to seek revenge from the governor!"
Chu Yi glanced at Han Tong indifferently, then his eyes fell on the housekeeper beside him and said, "Tell me, does your master want to seek revenge on Chu?"
The butler trembled and glanced at Han Tong secretly. Although Han Tong's face was full of pleading, how could the butler dare to play tricks in front of Chu Yi? He nodded repeatedly and said: "Back to the governor, sir, he is exactly
I came here to avenge my young master Han Hui."
Chu Yi raised his eyebrows, and Shi Kui stepped forward and said: "Master Governor, among the dozen or so scholars who were killed earlier, there was indeed one named Han Hui. I think it was this old man Han.
My son!"
Although it was confirmed that his only son was killed by Chu Yi, listening to Shi Kui's words still made Han Tong heartbroken and couldn't help but murmur: "My son..."
Looking at Han Tong, Chu Yi sighed: "It seems that Mr. Ling really died because of Chu. Your bloodline was cut off by you. I think you wish you could tear Chu into pieces!"
Han Tong lay on the ground with his fists clenched, and his nails dug into the palms of his hands. He was heartbroken and kept telling himself not to get angry. He wanted to stay useful and take revenge in the future.
Taking a deep breath, Han Tong said in a trembling voice: "Han Tong doesn't dare. It's all because I don't know how to teach my son. The governor took action to kill this evil son. It can be regarded as cleaning up the family for me. I am very grateful."
Saying these words, Han Tong's heart was bleeding. Faced with the murderer who killed his only son and ruined his family, he was in front of him, but he couldn't take revenge at all, especially when he had to flatter the other person.
Submission is definitely not something that ordinary people can bear.
Looking at Han Tong, Chu Yi clapped his horse and passed by Han Tong. Han Tong's heart suddenly relaxed, thinking that he had survived this disaster, but Chu Yi's cold voice came: "General Shi, since Mr. Han is outside
The love between father and son is deep, so let’s send the old man on his way, don’t keep Mr. Han waiting for a long time!”
It would be fine if the opponent rushed up and shouted to kill him, but if Chu Yi was as forbearing as Han Tong, who knew what trouble would happen in the future if Chu Yi didn't eradicate the situation.
Chu Yi knew without even thinking about the hatred of killing his son and the hatred of his successor, but Han Tong would never let it go.
Han Tong froze and suddenly got up. The strength that came out of nowhere was like a ghost. He stretched out his withered claws and grabbed Chu Yi, shouting: "Eunuch, I'm going to kill you.
You must die well..."
"Be bold!"
Shi Kui strode forward, grabbed Han Tong who was rushing towards Chu Yi, and then threw him to the ground. Han Tong was just an ordinary person. How could he withstand Shi Kui's attack? He vomited blood on the spot.
And died.
Seeing the soldiers full of evil spirits escorting the embarrassed soldiers away, the servants of the Han family seemed to have walked away before the gate of hell. Everyone looked at each other, not even caring about the violent death of Han.
Passed by and dispersed immediately.
Chu Yi led a group of soldiers to escort the literati back to the Dongchang stronghold, while Shi Kui led his men to roar away, and according to the list listed by Chu Yi, the houses were confiscated and exterminated one by one.
Fortunately, except for the two special places of Wu Jingbo Mansion and Zhulin Book Club, the other dignitaries selected by Chu Yi were not enough for Chu Yi to take action personally.
The city of Nanjing suddenly fell into a blood-red terror. It can be said that Chu Yi's name changed his face when he heard it. I don't know how many powerful people and wealthy gentry families hid in their homes on this day and trembled, fearing that the next moment the door would be knocked open and then closed.
Everyone in the family was arrested one by one, and their property was confiscated.
In the evening, because there were too many people arrested, the Dongchang stronghold could no longer detain so many people. Chu Yi directly sent people out of his wallet to detain nearly a thousand people in more than a dozen large courtyards around them.
Carloads of confiscated property, including gold, silver, jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, etc., were piled up in several large rooms. Not to mention other things, the Hu family alone confiscated tens of thousands of taels of gold and hundreds of thousands of silver.
, other jade jewelry, totaling millions.
In addition, there are dozens of various shops and tens of thousands of acres of fertile land, which is of astonishing value.
You must know that this is just the property of the Hu family in Nanjing City. As a family that has monopolized the salt industry for many years in the Ming Dynasty, I am afraid that the wealth accumulated in the family's ancestral land will be even more amazing.
Chu Yi would not find it strange if he had thousands of gold and silver.
Who doesn't know about the huge profits from the salt industry? It would be really strange if the Hu family didn't have millions in property.
In addition to the property of the Hu family, what is truly astonishing is the property confiscated from Wu Jingbo's mansion.
Starting from Wu Jinghou, the Zhao family has been entrenched in the city of Nanjing for decades, and the operation and sales of the salt industry in Jiangnan are all controlled by the Wu Jinghou Mansion. It is conceivable how much money the Wu Jinghou Mansion can save.
Net worth.
Carloads of gold and silver were dug out from the secret warehouse, totaling two million taels of gold and silver. Similarly, the Wujinghou Mansion also accumulated a huge property in Nanjing, including restaurants and tea shops, and various other properties.
The shop and the thick stack of land deeds were worth at least three million taels of silver.
The Wujinghou Mansion has been rising for almost thirty years. If you calculate it this way, in addition to expenses, you can save almost 100,000 taels of silver every year. This may seem scary, but the Wujinghou Mansion controls the Jiangnan Salt Industry. So
If you look at it, you only save one hundred thousand taels of silver every year. I'm afraid more of it is used to manage relationships, otherwise it wouldn't be unusual to accumulate a family fortune of five million.
As night fell, they rampaged, arrested and confiscated dozens of dignitaries without restraint. Shi Kui and his men from the wealthy gentry's family finally stopped, and the dignitaries who had been in panic all day breathed a sigh of relief.
In a study room in the Dongchang stronghold, Cao Shaoqin watched Chu Yi put down the thick statistical account book that confiscated the properties of various families, and said with a bit of joy on his face: "Lord Governor, this time even the people from the capital will not
Why are you making such a fuss? With these tens of millions of taels of property, the governor will be able to remain in honor and favor, and Jane will be in the emperor's heart!"
