In the Suzhou Mansion, there is a mess at the moment.

Outside the city, the five armies of Zhu were pressing, and these old men sitting in the hall, whether they were officials or these wealthy businessmen, had earthy colors on all sides.

"Zhu Wu's letter of persuasion has been delivered!"

The prefect Wang Ruopu's face was full of bitterness, "If you say that Kaecheng surrenders, the officials and the people will be safe, and the Dingyuan army will not commit any crimes." ”

Saying that, he looked at the side with his eyes, and sat like a Buddha, with walnuts in his hand.

Then he said, "Whether to die or surrender, you guys have an idea!" ”

"You are the prefect, you have an idea!" A rich merchant man said.

"Master Zhang, don't lift yourself up!" Wang Ruopu didn't care about any official body, and said with a wry smile, "If you don't like it, don't look at the black gauze hat of the prefect below, but in this city, what is the final say?"

You are all wealthy families in Suzhou City for several generations, and your family needs money and money, and you want people, even in the capital, you have children who are officials.

In this lower prefect, haven't you been looking at your eyes? ”

These old men have a bit of a sneering expression.

If it was in the Great Song Dynasty in the previous dynasty, it was nothing to have money, and the farmers and businessmen were the lowest.

Don't say it's the prefect of Suzhou, even if it's the prefect's master, even if you have Jinshan at home, you can't afford to mess with it.

But the Great Yuan Dynasty doesn't pay attention to this, as long as there is money, the official position can be bought with money, and a few reading seeds are being produced in his own family and embarking on a career in office.

These rich people are the soil emperors of Suzhou.

Wang Ruopu, the prefect, has been really aggrieved all these years.

There are Daru Huachi above, and these rich and wealthy families below.

At this moment, looking at these old men, they all sighed and trembled, and there was a bit of pleasure in their hearts.

"Suzhou City is not from Wang, to put it mildly, it's just this black gauze hat under it, but the foundation of your family wealth is in the city!"

Wang Ruopu continued, "You also saw yesterday how powerful Zhu Wu's firearms are. One shot, directly lifted the city gate building! ”

"Shhh

Thinking of such a scene, the hall master gasped.

Yesterday, in order to motivate the soldiers to defend the city, each family took gold and silver and went up to the city wall under the protection of the courtyard.

Before the money was paid, Zhu Wu's battleship as high as the city wall on the canal slammed into a cannon.

The city gate tower collapsed directly, and there were a few people who peed their pants on the spot.

It's scary, who's ever seen that thing?

Splitting mountains and cracking rocks!

No wonder 600,000 people were killed.

"But!" Another famous gentry in the hall spoke, "Zhu Wu is a thief after all, what he said is good, in case he enters the city, let's..."

"It's not that he can't fight, but he doesn't want to fight, he really wants to enter the city, and he has already entered!"

Everyone followed their eyes, the richest person in Suzhou, the eldest young master of the Shen family, Shen Wansan.

Shen Wansan was holding a group fan, with a smile on his chubby face, "I heard that Jiaxing is about to break, and there are no reinforcements from the imperial court, so we will do it in Suzhou sooner or later." ”

Wang Ruopu looked at him, "What is Shen Gongzi's opinion?" ”

"I don't dare to be high, but I've seen Zhu Wuzhi people, and I've dealt with them, and we have a little friendship!"

"Hmm!" Suddenly, Shen Wansan became the focus of everyone.

More than friendship! Lao Tzu is also going to help him open a money bank!

Shen Wansan shook his fan and said quietly, "Zhu Wu has fallen in love with the young lady of the Xie family in Jinling, and the Xie family and my Shen family are blood in-laws!" ”

The Xie family withdrew from the marriage, and the marriage contract was invalidated, and Shen Wansan knew the reason for it, and he was also relieved.

However, there is also some fear, Xie Lian'er holds a grudge. When I was a child, I was afraid that it would become a disaster.

The old masters of the hall were buzzing, and with this relationship, it was no wonder that the Shen family was not afraid.

Zhu Wu outside the city is called the king, and the Shen family is also a relative of the king.

"Shen Gongzi, there is such a relationship, why didn't you say it earlier!"

"Mr. Zhu....... Please have a lot of kind words in front of King Han! ”

"Nephew, the friendship of our two families for generations!"

Shen Wansan waved his hand, and the buzzing in his ears stopped.

"Zhu Wu said that he would not kill the innocent people, I believe it. He is still true to his word, and he Zhu Wu is in charge of the Huaixi Jiangnan, although he has great achievements, but he is not a person who kills indiscriminately.

Have you ever heard of the Dingyuan army slaughtering the city? Robbing big guys? He didn't kill the demoted officials, and he didn't kill the Mongolian soldiers stationed in various places, Daru Huachi! But..."

"But how?" The one who was in a hurry to speak was the Daru flower who was timid, and in his chubby hand, the walnuts were unstable, and he looked concerned, "Shen Gongzi, don't sell it!" ”

Shen Wansan swallowed his saliva, "This person loves money, silver and gold." He has hundreds of thousands of troops under his command, eating, drinking, and Lazar..."

"Hey, it's easy to talk about asking for money!"

"Isn't it money? He said the number! ”

"Money can solve it, is it?"

And the crowd began to talk in a round of gossip.

Shen Wansan sneered, "He loves money, but he doesn't take all the money!" ”

Everyone's eyes were attracted to him again, "You are all famous tasks in Suzhou, a famous wealthy family in the south of the Yangtze River." I estimate at least, two million! Pay the money and report safety. ”

"Shhh

The old men were shocked, there are many rich people in Suzhou, but in addition to those few, who has so much cash.

It's not that everyone hurts, but they can't get together for a while, what should I do?

"Can the nephew borrow it?" A rich old man said.

Shen Wansan smiled, "It's okay, but it's profitable, you know.... The way of this world.... Hehe! ”

It's really dark, and at this time I was still thinking about the mortgage, and I put it on us.

However, this is not the time to ask for money and die.

"Well said, well said!"

Everyone hurriedly agreed.

But Wang Ruopu's eyes looked at Daruhua timidly.

In Suzhou City, people are the emperor of the soil. There are more than 5,000 Mongolian soldiers on the city wall, and if people don't agree, no matter how many people they say, it will be in vain.

Timidly held the walnut with his big hand and smiled bitterly.

"The prefect looked at me, just to ask me if I would agree to open the city!"

Timidly opened his mouth, and spoke in a soft Wu language, "Although I am a Mongolian, but after a hundred and ten years, you see, is there any difference between me and you?" Eat the same meal, say the same thing, watch the same play. Take off this robe, just like you.

Since I was a child, I have also been reading and learning the poetry and articles of the Han family.

I also know that the destiny of heaven is irresistible, in fact, I have long wanted to open the city, and I don't want to be that loyal and filial son.

However, there is one thing, Zhu Wu must give me a letter of approval.

As long as he doesn't kill indiscriminately, I'll let those soldiers on the city wall put down their weapons! ”

I see!

Are you afraid, Zhu Wu entered the city and slaughtered you all.

"This can be guaranteed below!" Shen Wansan said with a smile, "Manager Zhu is by no means a person who kills indiscriminately, he once said to his subordinates that no matter Hu Han under his rule, as long as they abide by the law, they are all people!" ”

Timidly Buhua was just about to nod, and a servant crawled in outside.

"Master, it's not good!" The officials panicked, and their words were not good.

"Zhu Wu's people are under the city, kill ..... Kill...."

Under the city of Suzhou, often meet spring and ride on a war horse.

In the clearing, thousands of captives who were tied up into rice dumplings cried and cried for their mothers.

"The king of Han is too merciful, and the officials of Dayuan are all cheap bones, and they don't cry when they don't see the coffin, expecting them to surrender? Difficult! ”

Chang Yuchun said to the soldiers behind him, "Begin!" ”

"This.... This is? ”

Wang Ruopu, who climbed the city wall, was dumbfounded, and the city was full of heart-rending cries begging for mercy.

The defenders at the head of the city were frightened and frightened, and the two forces trembled.

I saw that under the city, a few Dingyu troops like wolves and tigers grabbed a few prisoners like chickens and dragged them to the open space.

Then, the Devil's Head Knife was raised high.

"Mom!" Wang Ruopu closed his eyes.

When he opened it, he saw several bloody human heads under the city, rolling slowly. Unwilling eyes, looking at the city.

"Listen to the people inside, Lao Tzu often meets spring!" Chang Yuchun's voice exploded like thunder, "Give you two hours to open the door, otherwise these people will be your end." Surrender, everyone is safe. If you don't descend, after Lao Tzu enters the city, the chickens and dogs will not stay, and I will kill you! Kill the city of Suzhou into a white ground! ”

After speaking, he waved his hand again.

Hula!

Before the people on the city wall could react, the trebuchet of the Dingyuan army launched to the head of the city with the sound of breaking the air.

"Oh, Mom!"

"Buddha bless!"

The defenders at the head of the city suddenly stirred, and saw that the trebuchet had launched it and it was none other than that.

It was those bloody human heads.

Wang Ruopu's face was as earth-colored, "Kaecheng, surrender!" ”
