Chapter 525: The Wu Family's Right and Wrong

The head of the Wu family, in a handwritten letter, told the Wu family that a penny was not allowed to be handed over, and then the Wu family, for the tax officials who went to collect the payment, was not as polite as before, and the words became ambiguous.

The tax officer who went to collect the payment reported the situation to Zhang Liang, and after Zhang Liang heard this change, he did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly reported the matter to Zhu Hao.

When Zhu Hao heard about this situation, he thought that when he was in prison that day and saw the head of the Wu family, the head of the Wu family, with that tough attitude, immediately understood that this was the head of the Wu family, and let people send a message to the Wu family.

Zhu Hao, who understood this, was furious, but now the major clans in Jiangnan are watching how he treats the Wu family, and Zhu Hao doesn't want to kill the Jiangnan clan until he is forced to do so.

Compared with the bloodshed, Zhu Hao is more inclined to use the property tax to let the major clans in Jiangnan collapse by themselves, such a situation can allow Daming to eliminate hidden dangers smoothly.

Therefore, Zhu Hao, with the mentality of giving the Wu family another chance, came to the prison again, this time he saw the head of the Wu family, did not hide his identity, and said to the head of the Wu family as soon as they met:

"Master of the Wu family, this king is Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, we have met last time, this king wants to talk to you!"

Listening to Zhu Hao's introduction, the head of the Wu family did not look surprised, but said indifferently:

"At this age, you can come and go here at will, your identity, the old man has already guessed it!"

"The prince deigned to come to this cell twice, Wu was really flattered!"

"I don't know if the prince came this time, what advice do you have?"

Zhu Hao listened to the strange words of the head of the Wu family, held back the anger in his heart, and said:

"Master Wu, we don't talk darkly, this king is here, what is the so-called matter, you must know very well!"

"This king, I came to see you this time, just to emphasize to you that the tax and silver you owe must be made up in full, this is the bottom line of this king, and the rest of the things are easy to say!"

After Zhu Hao's words were finished, he looked at the head of the Wu family, and after a while, the head of the Wu family spoke:

"Your Royal Highness, have you finished your words?"

"That's all said and done, there's nothing else to do, you can go!"

"This is a prison cell, you are the prince, it is not suitable here!"

Zhu Hao listened to the words of the head of the Wu family, and immediately became angry, and Wei Xiaobao, who was following behind him, was immediately unhappy, pointed at the head of the Wu family, and scolded:

"You old thing, how can you talk to Your Highness?"

"Didn't you hear what Your Highness said just now?"

"What do you mean, give me a good word!"

The head of the Wu family didn't put Wei Xiaobao in his eyes at all, glanced at Wei Xiaobao with disdain, and then said:

"The old man talks to the prince, where is you, a eunuch, to speak!"

Wei Xiaobao listened to the head of the Wu family, this extremely insulting sentence, if it wasn't for Zhu Hao's eyes and stopped him, I am afraid that he would be ready to give this stubborn old man three knives and six holes on the spot.

After the head of the Wu family scolded Wei Xiaobao, he arched his hand at Zhu Hao, and then said:

"Your Highness, you don't have to ask the old man's attitude, the old man has already made his attitude clear last time!"

"Your Highness, why bother, why do you have to ask more?"

Zhu Hao listened to the words of the head of the Wu family, sighed slightly, and then said helplessly:

"Master Wu, maybe you think that this king is begging you, but if you think so, then you are wrong, in fact, this king is giving you a chance!"

"It's a pity that you didn't grasp it, so if that's the case, the head of the Wu family, you should take care of your health!"

"I hope you can see how the Wu family fell!"

Zhu Hao said and turned to leave, the head of the Wu family, looking at Zhu Hao's departing back and firm steps, he had a faint bad premonition in his heart.

However, he still doesn't think that Zhu Hao dares to touch his Wu family, after all, the Wu family is in Jiangnan, and it is also a big family, if Zhu Hao wants to do something to the Wu family, he will inevitably suffer a lot of losses.

The head of the Wu family, thinking like this, secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and at the same time, he also decided that what Zhu Hao said just now was just a bluff.

However, what happened next made the head of the Wu family understand that Zhu Hao's words just now were not a bluff with him, but really giving him an ultimatum.

On the day that Zhu Hao was immediately imprisoned, he ordered the Wu family to be blocked, and at the same time arrested the relevant people, and all the Wu family's property was confiscated.

Zhu Hao's charge for the Wu family was that he was in a foreign country with bad intentions.

Of course, a discerning person will know at a glance that Zhu Hao is completely cleverly setting up a name to sanction the Wu family for defaulting on the imperial court's taxes.

When Zhu Hao really raised the butcher's knife, these Jiangnan clans realized that Zhu Hao came to Jiangnan not to bluff, let alone to be anticlimactic, but to really attack them, the big family.

With Zhu Hao's order issued, the entire Wu family was suddenly in chaos, from arrest to raiding the house, Zhu Hao only took half a day, and the Wu family became a thing of the past.

Although it only took Zhu Hao half a day to deal with the Wu family, this incident was difficult to forget for a long time among the major families in Jiangnan.

When the head of the Wu family, watching them the key people of the Wu family, all of them were sent to prison by Zhu Hao, the head of the Wu family felt regret at this time, he wanted to compromise now, but Zhu Hao refused to see him again.

There was no way, he made the last killer move, and asked people to inform Wu Xiang, the general soldier of Jinzhou, hoping that Wu Xiang could save the Wu family for the sake of the same sect.

After Wu Xiang received the letter of help from the head of the Wu family, he attached great importance to it, but when he saw that the head of the Wu family said in the letter that he had a conflict with Zhu Hao, he immediately sneered:

"A lot of old dogs are alive!"

"He also dared to offend the king of faith, and he also expected the general to save him, offended the king of faith, this big day, I'm afraid no one can save him!"

Wu Xiang was mocking the head of the Wu family, and when he had no eyes, Wu Xiang's father walked out of the room, sighed and said:

"I can't write two Wu Lai in this pen, although they were very bad to us back then, but after all, there is still a love of the same race, if you can help, you should help!"

"Even if you write a letter and ask for a favor from the king of letters, if you can't do it, we can be regarded as benevolent!"

Wu Xiang listened to his father's words, sighed and said:

"When King Xin was in Liaodong, although the child did not have much contact with him, he also knew that King Xin had always said the same, since King Xin had decided, let alone a child, even if it was a saint, it would be difficult to change his mind!"

"However, since my father said so, the child has to give it a try, but in this case, it is not appropriate for the child to beg, Sangui is on an errand by the side of King Xin, and he is the person in front of King Xin, so it is more appropriate for him to do this matter!"

"Child, let's fix a book and let Sangui handle this matter!"

Wu Sangui, who was in the capital, after receiving a letter from his father Wu Xiang, immediately did not dare to slack off, and set off overnight to go to Jiangnan to plead with Zhu Hao.

However, when Wu Sangui arrived in Jiangnan, he inquired about it, and after the festival between the Wu family and King Xin, he was not ready to intercede for the Wu family, because this was completely the head of the Wu family, and he died by himself.

As the saying goes, it is still possible to live if you do evil in heaven, but you can't live if you do it yourself, the Wu family is looking for death by itself, why should he save it, besides, if others speak lightly, Zhu Hao may not listen to his words.

With such thoughts, Wu Sangui was ready to quietly return to the capital, as if he had never been to Jiangnan, but how powerful Jinyiwei was, at the beginning of Wu Sangui's entry into Jiangnan, Wei Xiaobao received the news.

Wei Xiaobao immediately asked Zhu Hao for instructions on what to do, and Zhu Hao told Wei Xiaobao to let it be, see what Wu Sangui had done, and tell him.

When Wu Sangui was about to return to Beijing, Wei Xiaobao naturally received the news as soon as possible, and after Wei Xiaobao received the news, he came to see Zhu Hao again to explain the situation.

After listening to Wei Xiaobao's words, Zhu Hao groaned slightly and said:

"This Wu Sangui is a subordinate official of this king, since he came to Jiangnan, how can he not visit this king and save him?"

"Go, bring him, this king is going to ask him, do you know how to count etiquette!"

As Zhu Hao's words came out, Wei Xiaobao immediately received the order and asked Wu Sangui, the general of the Jinyi guard, to bring Zhu Hao's line.

When Jinyiwei appeared in front of Wu Sangui, Wu Sangui knew that King Xin knew everything about his every move.

Wu Sangui arrived at Zhu Hao's line, and after seeing Zhu Hao, he couldn't open his mouth, so he knelt on the ground first and asked for sin:

"Weichen Wu Sangui, come to Jiangnan, but meet the prince in the future, it is really rude, please punish the prince!"

Zhu Hao listened to Wu Sangui's words, and said with a slightly dissatisfied look on his face:

"Since you know that there are faux pases, how dare you do this?"

Wu Sangui listened to Zhu Hao's questioning, and hurriedly said:

"Weichen didn't mean to be rude, but he really didn't have the shame to see His Highness, so he was ready to return to Beijing quietly!"

Zhu Hao listened to Wu Sangui's words, and immediately said, "Oh? Then he asked:

"What's wrong with you, you have no face to see this king, is this king so terrible?"

Listening to Zhu Hao's inquiry, Wu Sangui didn't dare to slack off, and immediately said:

"Back to His Royal Highness, Weichen didn't dare to hide it, Weichen was entrusted by his father to come to Jiangnan to intercede for the Wu family!"

"However, when Weichen knew what the Wu family had done in Jiangnan, he had no shame to plead with His Highness again, so he was ready to leave Jiangnan and return to the capital."

Zhu Hao listened to Wu Sangui's words, and then he reacted, and said with a slight bow:

"Don't you say that this king almost forgot, your ancestral home is also in Jiangnan, it seems that this Jiangnan Wu family still has some relationship with you!"

Wu Sangui listened to Zhu Hao's words, and hurriedly nodded and said:

"Don't hide it from Your Highness, it's true, this Jiangnan Wu clan is the same clan and clan as me, but my father was driven out of the Wu family by them back then, so he went to Liaodong, accumulated military exploits in Liaodong, and had a family business!"

Zhu Hao listened to Wu Sangui's words, and said with a slight bow:

"It seems that there are still some long-cherished wishes between you!"
