Chapter 317: The city of sin where demons dance wildly(1/2)
Princess Hanshan...
This is the new title of the little princess.
Not only her, but other princesses have also been promoted to the eldest princess. After all, the queen is now considered their grandson, so the little princess who is still twenty years old at the age of 20 is already the eldest princess of Hanshan.
And her imperial staff ended up with all the criminal subjects, left and right subjects, plus one death, and the four living subjects were dragged back to the criminal section by Jin Yiwei, and then the other five were killed.
Dozens of people in the department signed and sealed the imperial edict with trembling hands under the look of grief and indignation...
came back.
This damn feeling is back.
All the civil and military officials in the dynasty felt the familiar feeling with sadness and anger.
They struggled with this feeling for thirty years, and finally survived until the mountain fell. They thought they could breathe freely, but in less than a year, the suffocating sense of oppression appeared again.
On top of their heads.
I thought she was just a little girl...
Old girl.
She also looks crazy on weekdays and obviously has a low IQ. As for her ability to make money, of course the courtiers will not really care about her. After all, in the eyes of Confucian scholars, this is very self-destructive.
The courtiers reacted calmly to the Queen's succession. Apart from secretly shouting a few times about the country's generals, the important reason why they took no real action was that they saw a group of women being easy to deal with. Even Zhu Yunxi and even Zhu Yunwen were actually better off.
The queen and ministers all like the emperor to be weaker and more pliable, especially after being oppressed by Zhu Yuanzhang for so many years, it is really not a bad thing for them to have a group of women come to power. Although there is Yang Feng, this guy is indeed scary
, but if you really want to calculate it, he is still much stronger than Zhu Yuanzhang. After all, he will not kill indiscriminately. Moreover, Yang Feng tied his own hands and insisted on being an envoy of friendly countries and talked about not interfering in the internal affairs of the Ming Dynasty every day.
This is easier to deal with.
It is really not a difficult task for old foxes like them to coax a few young women and a man who behaves with restraint.
A woman!
What can they do?
But now I am dumbfounded.
Why does this look so Taizu style?
This is not as good as Zhu Yunxi. At least half a year after Zhu Yunxi took the throne, he was not beaten with a royal cane. She had only been in power for a few days, and she directly beat more than half of the people in the death penalty department with a royal cane.
She is also erratic. She originally promised not to go to jail, but now she is almost as good as her father in arresting her at one time.
This tastes wrong!
This is obviously developing towards her father. Is it possible that the bloodline of Lao Zhu's family is so terrifying that even the women have violent blood?
However this is just the beginning.
Anluhou Mansion.
"I have an iron bond. I have an iron bond. My father is a hero who founded the country, and his descendants will be spared from death!"
Anluhou Wu Jie, who had just returned from Zhejiang, struggled hard and shouted.
The Jin Yiwei who was dragging him simply hit him with a stick until he screamed in agony. His wife behind her held the iron certificate above her head with a look of grief and indignation, but this did not stop her man from being taken away...
"Being able to protect the lives of your descendants means that my Zhu family is worthy of Duke Qian Weiyi. Do you think that such a big thing as the assassination of the emperor is really allowed to be fooled by you like this? Only a few people died in the regicide case.
Do you think it is possible? As the commander-in-chief of the area, when he learned that the emperor had been killed, he did not immediately seek revenge on the thief, but knelt down without hesitation to welcome the one most suspected of regicide. Now he still wants to rely on iron bonds to avoid death? "
The little princess riding the horse sneered.
Wearing an exquisite plate armor and holding her small pistol in her hand, she looked very murderous.
And behind her are elite guards.
In fact, they were selected from the workers in Wutai Mountain, a total of 300 people, who followed the princess for protection every day. These were all flintlock guns, but at least in the capital, the little princess would not be in danger. Because almost all civilians in this city were
They are her supporters. The last defense of the city has proven her appeal in this city. Anyone who wants to cause trouble in this city will have to defeat her first, which can be said to be millions of supporters.
"Princess, my master was just deceived by those traitors!"
Mrs. Anlu Hou knelt on the ground, holding up the iron coupon in her hand and shouted.
"Liu Rong!"
the little princess shouted.
Liu Rong, who had become the royal vicious dog, immediately moved forward.
"Marquis Anlu, before the late emperor was killed, who took Zhu Ni's 10,000 taels of silver and deliberately delayed his advance in Wujiang? Do you want me to call all the brothers who gave you the silver?"
Liu Rong said.
"You want to accuse me of crimes, why bother! Even so, I am just accepting a bribe. Our Wu family has an iron certificate given by Emperor Taizu Gao, and we can avoid death except for treason. The princess is the love of Emperor Taizu Gao.
Girl, not even a year has passed since the death of Emperor Taizu Gao, and the princess wants to destroy Emperor Taizu Gao’s iron bonds?"
Wu Jie said angrily.
The little princess suddenly laughed, and the next moment she raised her hand and fired a gun. With the sound of the gunshot, the iron coupon on Mrs. Anluhou's head fell out of her hands. The latter screamed and quickly turned around to pick it up again.
"If you accept a bribe, you will die."
said the little princess.
Liu Rong immediately woke up.
"Princess, Marquis Anlu also sent people to Suzhou and exchanged treasure notes for three thousand taels of gold from Zhu Ni. He just knew that Zhu Ni was afraid of his attack. After getting ten thousand taels of silver, he was still not satisfied. Zhu Ni happened to steal it.
The bank in Suzhou obtained a large sum of silver and gold deposited in the bank, and used this to force Zhu Ni to exchange it for him. Zhu Ni was actually furious with him, but at that time he was in Wujiang with tens of thousands of troops from Zhejiang and could attack at any time.
Suzhou, in the end had to change it for him, and several rebellious people in Suzhou knew about this."
he said.
"Fornication against the Party will lead to death."
The little princess nodded and said.
Then she raised her hand and fired again, and the iron coupon she had just picked up in Mrs. Anluhou's hand fell again.
"If you are rebellious, you will die three times."
said the little princess.
Then another shot followed.
"Your family's iron certificate is useless, keep it as a souvenir! Take Anluhou to prison and torture him to see how many of his comrades there are. Anluhou's iron certificate has been spared three deaths. It is invalid. The Wu family will commit crimes again in the future.
Just deal with it according to the law."
she said.
Poor Mrs. Anlu Hou, holding the iron coupon with three bullet holes in it, started to cry loudly. Then suddenly she seemed to be stunned by anger, rushed to Anlu Hou's side, picked up the iron coupon and hit him.
The Jin Yiwei next to him did not stop him, so Anlu Hou had to quickly raise his arms to stop him, and then he screamed in agony when the iron coupon in his wife's hand was hit.
Because of his stupidity, their family lost the protection of the iron bond.
The little princess looked at it casually, then rode straight away.
This was the highest-status local arrest in the capital, so she led it personally. After all, the Wu family had iron bonds. At the same time, Jin Yiwei and pro-army guards also quickly arrested Wu Gao, the Marquis of Jiangyin, in the capital.
Others are on the list. However, Wu Gao is implicated because of his younger brother Wu Shou'an. Although the latter was killed by the Shenji Camp anyway, this kind of counter-case is implicated. Grandfather, father, brother, and son are all involved.
Killing. However, women and minors are not killed, and meritorious officials are made slaves. Married daughters have nothing to do with it. They have nothing to do with it at all. Even those who are engaged but have not married, they are also sent directly to their husband's family to be considered as married.
Wu Gao is Wu Shouan's brother. Even if he is not involved, he is still implicated.
At most, he may not necessarily be killed.
After all, he was in Shanxi at the time and had no idea what was happening in the south, and he also had ironclad evidence.
And Wu Jie must be killed.
Before Zhu Yunxi's personal expedition, he was bribed like Wu Shou'an. He always refused to attack in the south of Suzhou for various reasons. Although the main reason was that Wu Shou'an's attack failed and they knew that they might not be able to open Suzhou. In this case, it was better to stay outside.
Enjoying the steady flow of bribes from the gentry, and since the situation was unclear, it was good to wait and see. Later, when Zhu Yunxi died, he immediately joined Zhu Yunqi's men, and then Zhu Yunqi failed, and he switched sides without hesitation.
If this kind of person is not killed, Zhu Yunxi will not die in peace!
Isn't it because Wu Shou'an and Wu Jie were engaged in a sit-in war outside Suzhou against all odds?
"what is this?
We have endured for thirty years and finally sent away a tyrant, but now we have ushered in a new tyrant?
When will the world be governed by saints and worthy ministers?”
Looking at the little princess riding a horse and carrying a pistol, walking through the street, in a carriage on the side of the road, the former Minister of Civil Affairs, Ru Yu, who was leaving the city, smiled bitterly. He has already aged, and the current court is too dangerous.
Well, he still doesn't want to lose his life in the capital even at his old age.
He is a senior official.
If the courtiers want to fight, they must push him to take the lead.
Did he take the lead at that time or not?
To be continued...
