The scene of the whipping corpse in front of the governor's yamen made the scalp of the rich man Wu numb, and he hurriedly returned home after calling two hellos, and vomited twice on the way.

As soon as he returned to the luxurious Wu Mansion, the rich man of Wu immediately asked the family to boil water to prepare for the rain, wash away the bad luck on his body, and by the way, he also called Xinna's concubine.

The story-filled mandarin duck bath was finally finished, and the rich man Wu was exhausted, tasteless for a while, and just wanted to rest for a while, but listened to the commotion in the courtyard outside the house.

"Smack!" With a bang, the door was kicked open, and a team of intruders rushed in, taking a quick glance at the furnishings in the house, and without waiting for the rich man Wu to ask, the person at the head waved his hand, and immediately there were intruders who came to move the previous things.

Rich Master Wu was stunned for a moment, and when he saw the big golden Buddha and jade cabbage in the house being moved, he suddenly became anxious: "Oh, what are you doing, military masters?" ”

The leader of the soldiers said righteously: "The righteous army is doing the right thing for the sky, preparing to attack the Jingshi to overthrow the corrupt imperial court, and urgently needs grain, grass and silver salaries, these are all confiscated, and how much food you still have in your family will be handed over!" ”

Wu Cai's face was clouded, and he said, "Ah! Master Jun, didn't you say that King Chuang came and didn't pay for food? How do you ...... now?"

One of the intruders slapped a page of paper on his body and said, "Borrowed!" Here's an IOU, take it! ”

When the rich man Wu took the so-called IOU, he suddenly turned pale, you are fucking teasing me! Can this also be called an IOU? What are these dogs crawling on?

As a veteran of lending for many years, Rich Wu can see at a glance that this thing is not useful at all, even if these bastards in front of him really give him an IOU, who will he ask for in the future? The signature on the IOU is Dogdan, but who is Dogdan?

The rich man Wu was angry at that time and said, "I won't borrow it!" None of you are allowed to take it! ”

"Bang!"

There was a muffled sound, and the intruder was a punch, which made the rich man of Wu bleed from his mouth and nose, and stumbled to the ground.

Then a few intruders went up and beat them hard, punching and kicking, until the rich man Wu rolled all over the ground, screaming again and again.

The leading soldier glanced at him contemptuously and said, "Lao Tzu gave you face?" ”

Several of the rich man of Wu rushed over majestically with sticks, trying to save the owner, but they were blocked by a few intruders wrapped in turbans, and they threw down their sticks and ran away on the spot, and one of them did not run away and was drenched in blood.

The leading soldier shook the scars on his face, and shouted: "Dare to disrupt the people, dare to resist the rebels, come, confiscate the family property and house, and expel them all!" ”

After tossing for a long time, none of the things of the rich man Wu's house were moved out, and a small leader of the army directly occupied this Wu mansion, only the rich man Wu and his stupid son were driven out, and even a few concubines were left by the little boss to enjoy it, just like leaving the house.

Looking at the stupid son beside him, the rich man Wu who was only left with only one pants was left crying, hiding in the corner of his yard and crying.

The streets and alleys of the whole Zhending City were full of chaotic footsteps, rumbling horses' hooves, they also broke down the door from door to door, taking away all the grain, rice and noodles, and the gold, silver and jade of the landlord's house were used to honor the bosses.

"The government has no way, the small people are screaming, the princes and nobles are vicious and depriving the poor people, and they are unwilling to help the people with a single grain, and now there is a king who advocates righteousness in heaven, seeks tyranny, acts in heaven, does not pay for food, cares for exile, and trades with Jia ......"

A soldier beating gongs and drums to and fro in the streets, and every time he spoke, he sounded a gong and drum, and behind him there was a group of soldiers singing a ballad: "Kill cattle and sheep, prepare wine and oars, open the city gate to welcome the king, and when the king comes, he will not pay for ......food."

The rich man Wu listened blankly, feeling a little incredible, is this still a face?

The stupid son beside him laughed at him and said, "Dad, King Chuang is here and won't pay for food!" ”

The rich man Wu was about to go crazy, and said angrily: "I believe in fucking ghosts! Only you fool believe this nonsense! ”

This is a rebel, it's a robber! Those bastard officers and soldiers didn't dare to rob so blatantly!

The rich man Wu is now repentant, and the government at least takes money to do things, these turtle grandsons are like hungry wolves that can't be fed, shameless!

A cavalryman rode past with a banner on his back, shouting: "The discipline of the righteous division is strict, the army has passed, the autumn has not committed any crimes, and the king commanded: Whoever kills one person is like killing my father, and whoever fornicates a woman is like adultering my mother......"

Thinking that his wife and concubine had now become other people's property, the rich man Wu spit out a mouthful of old blood and stumbled to the ground.

......

Two days later, the rich man Wu, who was so hungry that his chest was close to his back, squatted in front of a restaurant where the army was eating, trying to beg for some leftovers to eat.

However, there were too many victims and begging people in the city, how could a half-way monk like the rich man Wu win over the few bags of disciples of the beggar gang, and he had to be beaten severely.

In the past two days, Wu Cai took the initiative to use all his connections to get back his house and property, but it turned out that those so-called relationships were similar to his own situation, and some people had already taken broken bowls to beg for food and joined the beggar gang.

The rich man of Wu felt a chill in his heart, and he longed to return to the life under the rule of the Ming Dynasty in the past, even if he paid some taxes? It's better than having your entire property taken away!

After careful consideration, the rich man Wu finally planned to sell his stupid son, but after looking for a circle of human traffickers, no one wanted it, and someone suggested that he sell it to the Chuang army, maybe he could exchange it for a few steamed buns, after all, it is best for the army to charge fools.

The rich man Wu felt justified, and tried to send his stupid son to the army, asking for three steamed buns, none of which could be missing!

Fortunately, the army was open-minded and didn't have many rules, so he accepted his stupid son on the spot, but only gave him two steamed buns.

The rich man Wu happily carried two cold steamed buns as hard as stones, found an alley with few people and gnawed them, crying while gnawing......

He was reluctant to eat it all at once, chewing slowly as if he was enjoying it, and while eating, he thought, if these two steamed buns are finished, what will he do later?

At this time, the streets of the city were in a commotion, and some cavalry of the Chuang army ran wildly and shouted: "King Chuang will ascend the throne tomorrow, establish a new dynasty Dashun, and give porridge in the city for three days, and the whole world will celebrate!" ”

"Soup kitchen?" The rich man Wu carefully put the steamed bun into his arms and hurriedly ran to the street.

"King Chuang will ascend the throne tomorrow, establish a new dynasty Dashun, give porridge in the city for three days, and celebrate the whole world!"

"Where? Where to give porridge? ”

"City God Temple!" Chuang Jun replied.

Hearing this, everyone was in an uproar, and rushed to the City God Temple, and the rich man Wu, who was covered with dirt, snatched the broken bowl of a little beggar next to him, and hurriedly followed.

Next to the City God Temple, Chairman Wu Cai sat on the ground, holding a bowl of hot and somewhat hot rice porridge, tasted it, smacked his lips and said, "It's so fragrant!" ”
