The person on the side couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "Haha, Brother Mao, you envy no one, but you envy an eunuch. Look at Miss Zhou, who is such a beautiful person, but this eunuch has no sympathy for her at all.
, if you ask me, it would be great if we could have one or two of the power of Wei Guogong in the future!"
Someone seemed to glance at Zhou Zhipeng, who was kneeling there with disheveled hair, and couldn't help but sympathize: "Look, everyone, that seems to be Brother Zhou!"
Several people looked at Zhou Zhipeng and saw Zhou Zhipeng's hands were tied behind his back, and he was kneeling there in despair.
"Have you heard? It is said that Brother Zhou was personally responsible for this ambush on Chu Yi. It's a pity that God is blind, but in the end, Chu Yi, the eunuch, escaped!"
This news was indeed shocking. When they heard it, several other people immediately came over and whispered: "Is the news true? I didn't expect Brother Zhou to be such a hero!"
"Yes, although Brother Zhou failed this time and ended up dead at the hands of an eunuch, Brother Zhou's name will spread throughout the south of the Yangtze River and he will be respected by our generation!"
If Zhou Zhipeng knew that his daily friends thought this way, I'm afraid he would shout loudly that he doesn't want to be a hero, he just wants to live well.
If he was given another chance to choose, even if he was beaten to death, he would not support his father's attack on Chu Yi. He thought it was an opportunity to show off, but who knew the consequences would be so serious that he might even lose his life!
Zhou Zhipeng regretted it, but there is no regret medicine in this world.
Chu Yi, who was accompanying Wei Guogong to speak, raised his eyebrows and glanced at the people who came to join in the fun. Fortunately, there were groups of soldiers surrounding the area in front of the Zhou Mansion. Otherwise, he was really afraid that these people would be escorted away.
The family members of the Zhou family who came over took the opportunity to escape into the crowd. By then, there were nearly a thousand people in the densely packed area. Even if some people could be captured afterwards, some of them would eventually escape.
Then the effect of his killing and establishing power will be greatly reduced, and it may even become a joke.
Wei Guogong seemed to have seen Chu Yi's thoughts, stroking his beard and smiling: "The governor can rest assured, these soldiers are the elite recruited by me, and they can definitely guarantee the safety of the execution ground."
As the last wave of people arrived, the wealthy gentry of the Zhou and Wang families, as well as the family members of General Zhaowu Wu Peng, were kneeling there in darkness, nearly three hundred people in total.
Looking at the scene of hundreds of people waiting to be executed, it was really shocking, and even the people around who were originally noisy and talking couldn't help but become quiet.
All eyes fell on Chu Yi. This was the first time for many people to see this ruthless, murderous lunatic and butcher at the center of the legend.
Chu Yi is dressed in a python suit, wearing a large chariot, and has a handsome appearance. He is only seventeen or eighteen years old, and looks more like a handsome young man. If they had not known about the murder Chu Yi had committed, how many people would have believed that the other party was that person?
Where is the notorious governor of Dongchang!
Shi Kui, wearing armor, suddenly fell to the ground and faced Chu Yi. Wei Guogong and Fan Heng greeted him and said: "The general has captured all the family members of the rebels, and I have come here to give orders!"
Chu Yi nodded slightly and said: "Thank you for your hard work, General Shi. Please get up quickly!"
Shi Kui stood up and stood next to Chu Yi. He saw Chu Yi sweeping across the audience and stood up slowly. His voice was not loud, but the whole audience could hear Chu Yi's voice: "I, the Governor Chu Yi, am inspecting in the name of the Emperor."
Everyone who was lucky enough to come to Nanjing originally wanted to see the prosperity of the south of the Yangtze River and taste the charm of the Qinhuai River. However, there were rebels with ulterior motives who ambushed the governor and even colluded with Japanese foreigners to fight against the imperial army. This is an unforgivable crime.
"
As Chu Fang and other Dongchang officials threw the bodies of a dozen Japanese people including Takeda Nobuyuki, these Japanese people were very different from the Ming people in terms of hairstyle and clothing, so they could tell each other's identities at a glance.
Some people in the crowd even exclaimed: "These are really people from Japan. I have seen it before. The people in the small country of Japan don't know how their body, hair, and skin are affected by their parents. They are just like those violent yuan. They shave their heads. It's really...
ugly!"
Everyone has seen those Japanese Rondos with only the hair on the sides tied into braids on their bald heads. Their hairstyles are as ugly as they come.
Chu Yi's voice suddenly rose and he said: "Tell me, everyone, how should we deal with these rebels who collude with foreign tribes and dare to assassinate imperial envoys and fight against the imperial army!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
Suddenly, hundreds of soldiers under Shi Kui's command shouted loudly, the sound was so powerful and evil that it even shocked the surrounding people and subconsciously took a few steps back.
Chu Yi shook his subordinates behind him and said solemnly: "Yes, the only way to deal with such rebels is to kill them!"
The spectators around were shocked. Is this really going to kill? There were hundreds of people.
Then Chu Yi shouted coldly: "Swordsman, come forward!"
Suddenly, dozens of axemen holding ghost-headed swords came forward one by one and stood behind the dozens of criminals in the first row. These people were Zhou Anmin, Zhou Zhipeng, Zhaowu General Wu Peng and others. When things came to a head, these people
Everyone panicked and tried to struggle, but they were tied up one by one and had no way to escape.
Turning around and sitting down, Chu Yi bowed his hands to the Duke of Wei and said, "Old Duke, why don't you supervise the execution, so as not to accidentally kill innocent people!"
Xu Ren paused slightly with his skinny hands in his sleeves. The smile on his face stopped for a moment and then he smiled: "It's not convenient for me to intervene in this matter. I can just watch. I believe that Governor Chu will be able to judge impartially!"
Chu Yi stared at Xu Yan and suddenly smiled and said: "In that case, I will obey the Lord!"
"cut!"
"cut!"
"cut!"
After giving the order, Shi Kui roared, and suddenly dozens of axe-hands holding Ghost-headed knives sprayed wine on the Ghost-headed knife. The broadsword was swung up, and the bright sunlight shone on the cold and shining blade, and the light of the knife was seen.
Flashed by, blood splattered.
The scene was in chaos, with onlookers screaming in fear, while those in the scene who were about to be executed were terrified, struggling, and wailing.
However, under the suppression of the army, all the chaos was easily suppressed, and groups of people to be executed were brought in.
A full hour passed, and all the criminals on the execution ground were beheaded. The ground was dyed red with blood, and there was silence all around.
When Chu Yi stood up, those people opposite Chu Yi subconsciously took a few steps back, obviously frightened.
Getting on his horse, Chu Yi rode away surrounded by Dongchang Fanzi and a group of soldiers.
Wei Guogong Xu Er stood there watching Chu Yi's retreating figure, his eyes swept over the corpses of Zhou Anmin and others, a strange color flashed in his eyes, and he snorted coldly: "Drag the corpses of these rebels to the graves to feed the dogs!
"
After a killing, the huge city of Nanjing seemed to fall into silence. I have to say that Chu Yi's bloody massacre really suppressed too many people, but it also made some people clearly realize that if they want to deal with Chu Yi
When it comes to Yi, it's best to be completely sure, otherwise, be prepared for backlash.
Time flies and three days have passed. Jing'an Villa is a famous villa outside Nanjing City. It is the property of Duke Wei.
This villa is surrounded by mountains and rivers, with beautiful scenery. Many times, the Wei Guogong Mansion held banquets. But on this day, when the sky was just getting brighter, the gate of Nanjing City opened and many carriages were seen rushing towards Jing'an Villa.
A few days ago, when Chu Yi paid a visit to Duke Wei, he begged Duke Wei to help invite a group of gentry and dignitaries from Nanjing City to deal with the shops and fields that he had confiscated.
Obviously, these people came here for the confiscated shops and fields. We all live in Nanjing City. No one knows who is who. Naturally, they know the ins and outs. It can be said that as soon as they received the post from the Duke of Wei, many people were gearing up to prepare.
Divide up those shops and acres of land.
The price is nearly half the market price. Only a fool would not be tempted.
At noon, amid the expectant gazes of many gentry and dignitaries, Chu Yi and Wei Guogong arrived together. Along with them were the files and land deeds that could pull a carriage. It can be seen how extensive Chu Yi ordered people to ransack his homes in the past few days.
of harvest.
Jiangnan is prosperous, and the city of Nanjing is the first place to be admired by the wealthy. It can be said that in this core place in the south of the Ming Dynasty, at least about 30% of the gentry in the south of the Yangtze River are gathered, and more than half of the powerful people. Which of the famous families does not have a mansion in Nanjing City?
, industrial.
To put it bluntly, if Chu Yi was more ruthless and slaughtered most of the gentry and powerful people in Nanjing City, he would be able to earn tens of millions of taels in cash alone.
When Chu Yi and Wei Guogong walked out, everyone's eyes turned to Chu Yi. Although the bloody massacre three days ago was still vivid in their minds, there were even many gentry and dignitaries present who were with General Zhaowu, the Zhou family, and the Hu family.
, Wu Jingbo’s family is related by marriage.
But even so, when such a huge benefit was placed in front of them, it didn't matter who Chu Yi killed. What mattered was how many shops and acres of land they could get from Chu Yi today.
Wei Guogong laughed and said: "It seems that everyone is impatient. In this case, I will not say anything more and just ask Governor Chu to bring out the gifts prepared for everyone!"
Everyone's eyes were fixed on Chu Yi with intense heat.
Chu Yi nodded towards Cao Shaoqin, Chu Fang and several other Dongchang fans. Boxes were soon carried down one by one, and then the land deeds for each shop and farmland were laid out.
Chu Yi glanced at everyone and said: "Here are the land deeds for the shop and the land. Chu even invited officials from the Chief Secretary to personally handle the title transfer procedures for everyone on the spot. You can make your choice, and then register and pledge it with Chu."
You can go through the transfer procedures, as long as everyone delivers the money to Chu at half the market price within three days!"
Although they had already received this news from the Wei Guogong Mansion, after hearing Chu Yi's words, everyone's eyes couldn't help but turn to the boxes of land deed information.
