Chapter 55: Killing the Nine Clans

Zhu Youlang's face suddenly became gloomy.

It's not that he can't accept that the people are judging the situation, it's not that he can't accept that they are making some painful decisions in order to survive.

But there has to be a bottom line.

For example, you can't be a traitor, you can't betray the country to seek glory.

violated this article, which Zhu Youlang could not accept under any circumstances.

What He did was even more excessive.

He is the patriarch of the Wanxian Hao family, and he should have a responsibility. But he has one thing in front and one behind him, two sides and three knives, and he does everything.

It is not an exaggeration to describe him as rude, righteous and shameless.

Maybe in his eyes, Zhu Youlang is not a monarch's father at all, but a walking bag of gold and silver, a rich future at his fingertips, right?

In fact, Zhu Youlang sometimes thinks that the situation in the Southern Ming Dynasty is not bad, at least it should end up with the same river as the Southern Song Dynasty, right? Why was he driven to the southwest corner by the Manchu Qing Dynasty to fight the trapped beasts?

Is it really just the reason for the imperial court?

Now it seems that this is not necessarily the case, there are too many traitors like He Alcohol!

These people have no concept of family and country in their hearts, and they are only full of their own one-third of an acre of land. The interests of others can be harmed, but he cannot lose the slightest bit of his own.

There are such people vying to be the leading party, how can Nanming not die?

"Where is this now?"

Zhu Youlang asked with a gloomy face.

"Your Majesty, this fang has been taken down by the ministers and imprisoned with his people."

Li Dingguo hurriedly replied.

"Bring him to me."

Li Dingguo was stunned.

"Your Majesty?"

"Bring him to me."

Zhu Youlang repeated.

"Yes!"

Although he didn't know why Bai Zi wanted to see He Alcohol, Li Dingguo still chose to follow the order

Soon, He Yu was brought to the Imperial Front.

When Zhu Youlang looked at He Yu, who was tied up into a dumpling by the five flowers, he was angry and kicked him hard.

"I've never seen such a brazen person, has your conscience been eaten by dogs?"

He Yu was kicked three times, and then he struggled to get up and kowtowed to Zhu Youlang again and again.

"The grass people were blinded by lard and confused for a while, so they did such a wrong thing, and I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."

Zhu Youlang was amused.

This guy has committed such a heinous crime, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is treason, and he even thinks that he can get away with the crime and live.

"Forgiveness? If I forgive you, where will I put the law of the Ming Dynasty? If I forgive you, will I be worthy of the soldiers who fought bloodily? If I forgive you, I am afraid that future generations will follow suit, after all, even if you commit a serious crime, I will forgive. Yes and no? ”

He Yu was frightened by Zhu Youlang's questioning, and he couldn't say a word for a while.

After a long time, he reacted and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the grass people are also forced to be helpless." The Qing army, ah, didn't they take the son of the grass people as hostages and force the grass people to do this. ”

Zhu Youlang only felt funny, shook his head and said, "What you said is not a reason at all. Regardless of whether what you say is true or not, is it true, is the private relationship above the family and the country? Did you know that one of your decisions could derail the court's plans? ”

The Son of Heaven was furious and ambushed millions of corpses.

Zhu Youlang's current appearance is really scary.

Even Li Dingguo on the side felt that today's Son of Heaven was a little unfamiliar.

"Your Majesty, the grass people know that they are wrong, the grass people know that they are wrong, and I hope that Your Majesty will spare the lives of the grass people when they make a first offense."

He Alcohol kowtowed like pounding garlic, and even his forehead was broken.

Zhu Youlang was completely speechless, he was really shameless and invincible in the world.

This guy still wants to be able to live? Who gave him courage?

"Originally, I just wanted to kill you, but in order to warn future generations, I decided to punish you of the Nine Clans."

What Zhu Youlang said was categorical, and there was no room for negotiation at all.

He Yu thought that he had heard it wrong, and after being stunned for a long time, he howled and cried: "Your Majesty, the grass people are just confused for a while, and their crimes are not to death." As for the family, the clan is even more innocent, and I ask Your Majesty for mercy. If Your Majesty wants to be a benevolent monarch, you can't kill the grass people. Otherwise, wouldn't Your Majesty have tarnished your reputation, and how should it be written in the history books a hundred years later? ”

Be a benevolent?

It may be feasible to rule the prosperous world, but in this chaotic era at the end of the Ming Dynasty, being a benevolent monarch is simply an idea that only a fool would have.

Taking a step back, even being a benevolent monarch is also benevolent to those people who have a great mind in mind, not to a leading party like He Alcohol.

To be kind to He is to be unkind to oneself and to the people of the world.

As for how to write the history books a hundred years later, Zhu Youlang is even less worried.

Because history is written by the victors.

As long as Zhu Youlang wins, he will be the master of Zhongxing like Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty.

If he loses, he will definitely be blackened into charcoal by the Manchus like the Yongli in history.

Therefore, he should not be a benevolent man, but a ruthless man.

Being a benevolent monarch can't save Daming, being ruthless is a good thing!

"You don't have to worry about this. I'm going to kill you! ”

Zhu Youlang sneered and said: "Spread my will, He Yu's crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason is unforgivable. All the relatives of his nine clans were beheaded, and He Yu himself was executed to police his descendants. ”

Hearing that he was going to be Ling Chi, He Yu was so frightened that he fainted.

Zhu Youlang waved his hand in disgust, signaling to drag He Yu down.

After the attendants dragged He Alcohol away like a dead dog, Li Dingguo stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, is it too harsh to kill He Alcohol's Nine Clans?" ”

"Does King Jin think I'm a murderer?"

Zhu Youlang's face was very unkind, and Li Dingguo hurriedly bowed his hand and said, "The minister doesn't dare." ”

"I just don't think I can have the benevolence of Song Xianggong."

Zhu Youlang sighed and said: "I also want to be a benevolent monarch, but the king of Jin has also seen it, how this He alcohol treats the court and treats me." In the whole world, how many people are like He Alcohol? If I treat He Yuren, the people of the world will definitely think that betrayal and treason are nothing, and it is a big deal to admit your mistake in the end. In this case, how can this battle be fought? I'm afraid that this battle hasn't been fought yet, and the hearts of the soldiers are chilling first, right? King Jin has been fighting for so long with his troops, don't you understand such a simple truth? What are the soldiers most worried about? It's not a fierce and terrible enemy, it's someone stabbing a knife in the back. They worked the front line, but someone stabbed them in the back, who still has the heart to fight? ”

Li Dingguo was ashamed by Zhu Youlang's words, and said again and again: "It's the kindness of the courtier's wife." Your Majesty wants to make an example and warn future generations. ”

Zhu Youlang nodded and said: "Treason is a felony among felonies, I am not doing this to kill He Yu's family, but to show those who ride the wall, what is the fate of betraying Daming and betraying me!" ”

As for Zhu Youlang, who is infamous or something, he doesn't care at all, he comes from the black pot!
