In addition to the merchants who were arrested, these people standing on the city wall at this moment can be regarded as big businessmen in Yangzhou City, and they can be regarded as having some heels, and their hands and feet are not so clean.

Although Zhu Youxiao also checked them, and those who should be punished were also punished, but it was not enough.

At this time, let these people know that the times are different, and if they are like before, then their fate is no different from the people in front of them. Let them realize that under the rule of their own emperor, they should change their way of life.

The faces of the merchants present were very ugly.

Some people began to shiver and their bodies went limp.

Some people were pale, and they almost knelt on the ground, and the whole person was trembling like chaff, and they could barely stand only with the support of the people next to them. Looking at this, as long as a person lets go, he will fall directly to the ground.

Zhu Youxiao looked at these people and slowly turned his head.

He looked at Qi Yuanfu, who was standing guard with a spear on the side, and suddenly had an idea in his heart.

Shouldn't I bring this spear and recite a poem for them in front of these merchants?

As for what poems to use, it is, of course, Cao Cao's poem "Zhou Gong spits and feeds, and the world returns to the heart".

After reciting this sentence, a person is stabbed to death with a single shot, which is used to deter these merchants, and I believe that the effect will definitely be very good.

But think about it, forget it, it doesn't fit your own image.

When Zhu Youxiao was pondering, the following began.

The beheading in this era is not like the one played in later film and television works. In that case, it is actually difficult to cut the neck, and it is very difficult to go down with a single knife.

In fact, there are actually two kinds of beheading, one is based on equipment, and the other is based on technology.

Relying on equipment, to put it bluntly, it is to use a guillotine. Only a guillotine can go down with a single knife and hit the head to the ground. It is impossible to cut off the head with a single knife of a chop, and the knives of this era are not so hard and not so sharp. Only with a guillotine can you go down with a knife, and the head is divided into two parts.

The other is to rely on technology, using a very thin and fast knife to grope for the position of the gap in the neck bone on the person's neck, and then cut it with a knife; Sometimes it is not good to cut, and it will be cut continuously, and the death row prisoner is very painful.

As a benevolent emperor, Zhu Youxiao would certainly not choose such a method, and naturally chose to serve with a guillotine.

At this time, a row of guillotines had already been placed underneath, and the blades were cold in the sunlight, forming a sharp contrast.

Someone took the booklet and began to name names, this is called verifying the body, to see if the person who cut off the head is himself, don't be mistaken.

After the identity is verified, the person is carried to the guillotine, and the honest person's head will be put directly into it; Dishonest people who still want to be dying will be kicked in the knee socket from behind and fall to their knees.

As for the bridge of eating on the execution ground, it is even more impossible, there is no such rule at all, don't even think about it.

The severed head meal had already been eaten in the cell, and the meal in the morning was naturally gone at this time.

After the man was stuffed into the guillotine, the executioner directly picked up the guillotine and waited for an order.

Everyone watched this scene with bated breath, and the scene was silent.

After this period of propaganda, these people have been hated by the people. But even at this time when it was time to kill, no one shouted.

Above the city, the merchants were even more afraid, afraid that they would be next, or that they would be pulled out and cut down.

It's just deadly.

As the people below shouted, "It's three o'clock in the afternoon!" ”

"Slash!"

A sonorous and powerful "slash" was shouted, the guillotine fell, blood splashed, human heads rolled, and in an instant, a smell of blood dispersed, drifting with the wind.

Although Zhu Youxiao stood on top of the city, he still smelled a smell of blood.

He turned his head to look at the merchants next to him, some of whom had fainted, and some of whom had begun to vomit.

Apparently this scene had frightened them, and the killing was so terrifying.

Zhu Youxiao glanced at them, turned around and walked downstairs.

There is no need to stay here any longer, now that the goal has been achieved, I am not here to kill people, but to scare and scare these people, so that they can understand what it means to kill people.

Yangzhou City became quiet all of a sudden, although there were many people agitating and publicizing, but the atmosphere just couldn't get up.

The reason is also very simple, the blood outside Yangzhou has not dried up yet, and those headless corpses that no one collects are really chilling.

It's really scary to kill people on such a large scale.

For a long time, whether it is officials, ordinary people, or businessmen, how long has it been since they have seen such a battle?

It's just scared to death!

Everyone was in no mood to make any more noise, and they settled down in an instant.

In Lichun Courtyard, Tianzi No. 1 room.

Cao Bang walked in from outside, his face a little ugly.

He glanced at Huang Changzong, who was sitting in the room drinking tea, and it was not a taste in his heart.

Cao Bang didn't know what to say, why did Huang Changzong make an appointment to meet here?

That day, the emperor eavesdropped next door, and he was almost scared to death when he found out. At that time, it was decided that he would not come to this Lichun Courtyard again, let alone Tianzi No. 1 room.

Even if there is a beautiful woman in this Lichun Courtyard, she will not come here to take a look!

But who would have thought that after only a few days, his oath was broken, and Huang Changzong made an appointment to meet in this Tianzi No. 1 room.

Although Cao Bang didn't want to come very, very much, he didn't dare not come.

When Huang Changzong saw him, could he still say that he wanted to change the place?

About this place in Lichun Courtyard, Cao Bang was not sure if the emperor wanted to see him, or if they wanted the emperor to know what they said, Cao Bang didn't dare to think about it.

Anyway, I've already made an appointment, so let's come and meet, it's not okay to see it.

He ran here, although he didn't dare to say anything in his heart, but his expression inevitably had some resentment.

Huang Changzong turned a blind eye to Cao Bang's grudge and thought he was blind. It's a place where you can't talk or move.

Huang Changzong sat there and poured a cup for Cao Bang while drinking tea.

And at the back of the room not far away, someone remembered that Huang Changzong poured tea for Cao Bang.

Sitting opposite Huang Changzong, Cao Bang showed a bright smile on his face and said, "Brother Huang Xian is looking for Brother Yu today, what's the matter?" ”

After hearing this, Huang Changzong said with a smile: "Brother Cao, I called you over today because I have something to tell you. But before that, I still have to ask how things are going in your house. Aren't you all done resting? ”

Cao Bang said with a grateful face: "This is thanks to Gonggong Chen and the imperial court." If I had to do it myself, I'd be going to die of exhaustion. ”

"Fortunately, Your Majesty is kind and helpful, and we are able to get things done in such a short time. It's really a great grace! ”

Huang Changzong glanced at Cao Bang and knew that this was a sycophant. The meaning of this topic just now is to let Cao Bang make a few sycophants.

If it's too much, that's fine. So Huang Changzong said: "Now that it's done, it's time to tell you something new." ”

"Did you see the scene in the city yesterday?" Huang Changzong looked at Cao Bang and asked.

Glancing at Huang Changzong quite resentfully, Cao Bang couldn't wait to pull him over and scold him.

What are you asking this question for? Can I not see it?

I was in front yesterday and almost scared me to death, I vomited all the night and I haven't eaten anything this morning!

That's what you call me, otherwise I won't come!

Now ask me this question?

No, it's disgusting again!

Cao Bang subconsciously covered his mouth, quickly let go again, and said with nausea: "Go, what's wrong?" ”

"Do you have any insights?" Huang Changzong looked at Cao Bang and asked with a smile.

At this time, Huang Changzong's attitude was sincere, his tone was gentle, and his eyes were full of expectation.

This feeling is like waiting for Cao Bang to say something, and it is almost unbearable.

Cao Bang was a little confused.

Feelings, how can this feel?

How can I feel when my head is rolling, my blood is flowing like a river, and I almost vomit to death?

Is it trying to make me feel a sense of self-esteem? It works well to scare yourself.

Cao Bang settled down and said, "I feel quite deeply! and if they do many acts of injustice, they will be killed. You can't do bad things, you can't break the law, otherwise there will be no good end! ”

Huang Changzong glanced at Cao Bang, so helpless.

It's too bad at this time, and I haven't figured this thing out, do you still need to continue to dial it yourself?

Sometimes it's too much, and it's important to realize it yourself.

But there is no way at this time, Huang Changzong said: "Don't you have any feelings? Nothing you feel like you should be doing? ”

"What should I do?" Cao Bang thought for a while and said: "I will definitely do my best to live up to His Majesty's kindness to me!" ”

Huang Changzong was helpless, and almost stood up angrily, and directly grabbed Cao Bang's neck and questioned him.

But no, there are a lot of people here, and the news may be leaked.

I don't know what His Majesty wants to do for the time being, so I can't mess around.

Huang Changzong could only say directly: "In addition to their own greed, a large part of the reason why the merchants of Yangzhou have been able to get to this point today is because they have no rules and cannot be controlled. In such a situation, their ambitions grow, and all kinds of ideas come out. They are no longer satisfied with simply making money, how can such a person not have an accident? You say, don't you? ”

After speaking, Huang Changzong looked at Cao Bang with expectant eyes, hoping that he could understand something

But Cao Bang was still confused, turned his head to look at Huang Changzong, a little incomprehensible, and very aggrieved.

Shaking his head helplessly, Huang Changzong said directly: "Don't you think that the lack of supervision by businessmen will lead to the current situation?" In order not to repeat the mistakes of the past, what should you do as a leader of the Yangzhou business community? What do you think? It's not appropriate not to do something, right? ”
