Chapter 28: Shocking Changes (20)
Exiting the Heavenly King's Bedroom, Hong Tiangui asked Wu Ruxiao to loosen his bonds, and said to him in a deep voice: "Wu Ruxiao, your capital crime can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped, but this king will give you a chance to make meritorious contributions, and you will now lead people to capture King Xin, who participated in the rebellion!" ”
Wu Ruxiao's expression was complicated, and finally he gritted his teeth and knelt on one knee to respond loudly.
Under Hong Tiangui's order, the new 1st Brigade was all dispatched, and all the main streets of Tianjing City were placed under martial law.
King Xin's Mansion was in a panic, and Wu Ruxiao, in order to make meritorious service to the crime, first falsely claimed that the rescue of the King of Heaven was successful, and then entered the King of Xin's Mansion with a new brigade, and then suddenly made a move, and captured King Xin and his servants without much effort.
"Wu Ruxiao, you capricious villain!" Hong Renfa, the king of letters, who was tied up by five flowers, roared angrily at Wu Ruxiao.
Wu Ruxiao's face was expressionless, and he said in a cold voice: "King Xin, I have already seen His Majesty the Heavenly King, His Majesty the Heavenly King is fine, and he has not been imprisoned by the Young Heavenly King, and your blood edict is fake." ”
"It can't be! You must have been deceived, Wu Ruxiao, the King of Heaven was threatened by Hong Tiangui, you fool, you were fooled! King Shin yelled unwillingly.
"Hmph, Hong Renfa, are you still quibbling so far? The young king has an order, King Xin Hong Renfa organized a rebellion and murdered the new king, the crime is unforgivable, deprive King Xin of his title, expel the Hong clan, and all the people in the original Xin Wangfu are not allowed to be officials in the Heavenly Empire! Wu Ruxiao said coldly.
"Impossible, I am a relative of the Hong family, I am Hong Tiangui's uncle, he dares to do this to me, I want to see the king, I want to meet the king!" Hong Renfa said with a frightened face.
"The Heavenly King will not see you, the Heavenly King has written an abdication edict, and from today onwards, the Young Heavenly King will officially become the new Heavenly King of the Heavenly Kingdom!" Wu Ruxiao's face was expressionless, but his heart was full of fear, fortunately Hong Tiangui gave him the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, otherwise his fate would definitely be even more miserable by Hong Renfa.
"I don't accept it, I don't accept it, Heavenly King, Heavenly King......" Hong Ren roared bitterly.
"Kick Hong Renfa's family out of King Xin's mansion, His Royal Highness has an order, King Xin is corrupt and bribe-taking, and plots to rebel, everything in the family is confiscated, Hong Renfa and his family are not allowed to take away the slightest property of the Heavenly King's Mansion, and it will be executed immediately!"
Following Wu Ruxiao's words, the soldiers of the new 1st Brigade blocked the entire Xinwang Mansion, and then drove everyone in the Xinwang Mansion out of the Xinwang Mansion after searching their bodies.
After that, the god king Hong Renxuan came in a hurry.
"Save me, save me!" Hong Renfa, who was extremely embarrassed, saw that the king seemed to grasp the last straw.
The god's face was ugly, and what happened tonight caught him off guard. King Shin's organization of a man-made rebellion made him unbelievable, and the Young Heavenly King's suppression by thunder was completely beyond his expectations. This made him, who had just arrived at the Heavenly King's Mansion to meet Hong Tiangui, have to hurry over. Unfortunately, when he arrived, King Shin had already been driven out of the palace, and looking at the black blue on his face, it proved that the soldiers of the new brigade were not so gentle.
"Big brother, why did you come to this point?" Hong Renxuan's expression was extremely complicated. Although he and Hong Renfa are not brothers, they are also cousins, and the relationship should be very close. It's a pity that when the two brothers Hong Renfa and Hong Renda served as King Xin and King Fu, they had been working against Hong Renxuan, and the relationship between the two sides was extremely tense. Now that King Fu is under house arrest and King Xin has been cut off, it is unimaginable for Hong Renxuan to end up with the two princes who were originally high up and blessed.
"Renxuan, I know it's wrong, I don't dare anymore, please help me beg the Young Heavenly King!" Hong Renfa pleaded loudly.
Hong Renxuan sighed and said, "The Young Heavenly King is angry, I have no choice at this time, eldest brother, you first take your family to find a place to settle down, and after a while, I will go to the Young Heavenly King to intercede." ”
"Thank you, thank you......" Hong Renfa was very grateful. He didn't expect that Hong Renxuan didn't sneer at him at such a time, but was willing to help.
Watching Hong Renfa's family leave in embarrassment, Hong Renxuan sighed.
Hong Tiangui was indeed angry, and Hong Renxuan also received a reprimand for his intercession. Hong Renxuan didn't know where King Xin's courage came from, he had more or less heard the news of King Tian's house arrest, but he didn't take it seriously, and the reason why King Xin didn't find King Hong Renxuan to participate was because he thought that Hong Tiangui used Hong Renxuan heavily, and the two of them were in a group, so it was too late to hide from him, so naturally he wouldn't let him get involved.
And Hong Renxuan rushed to the palace to write to the palace, naturally not to appease Hong Renfa, this is just incidental. His real task was that Hong Tiangui ordered him to come and raid the palace of the king of Xin. Think about the two brothers of King Xin in the kingdom of heaven for several years, King Xin's Mansion and King Fu's Mansion are also the most luxurious palaces in addition to the Heavenly King's Mansion, but they have been confiscated in just two months, King Fu's wealth has shocked Hong Renxuan, King Xin, as the eldest brother of King Fu, I am afraid that his wealth will be even more terrifying.
The fact is not much different from what is imagined, the relatively low-key Xinwang Mansion has found an astonishing amount of wealth, silver alone has two million taels, more than 100,000 taels of gold, countless antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and the grain is relatively small, but it is only slightly less than the Fuwang Mansion, and the granary of 100,000 stones is also five and a half, which is enough for 100,000 troops to chew more than a year. Moreover, the grain of the Xinwang Mansion is the polished rice in the south of the Yangtze River, which was skillfully taken by the king of Qi Fu from the homes of the private landlords.
Looking at the huge list, Hong Renxuan could no longer find sympathy for Hong Renfa in his heart. This wealth is enough to cover a year's income in Heaven. Especially as the territory of the Kingdom of Heaven is getting smaller and smaller, the taxes sent by the various armies in front are also decreasing every year, making the taxes of the Kingdom of Heaven less and less.
Hong Renxuan sighed, no wonder the Young Heavenly King was so concerned about such wealth, and let himself come to check it in person.
The scale of his Ganwang Mansion is not small, but it is a house built in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and he lived in it and only simply renovated it, and did not make changes, although there are many people in the mansion, but basically they are all people who are matched by the Kingdom of Heaven according to the standards of the Heavenly King and the Marquis, except for the land rewarded by the Heavenly King, there is almost no industry in the Ganwang Mansion, compared with the King of Faith and the King of Fu, Hong Renxuan is far inferior in terms of making money and enjoying it.
"Come on, seal these up, and kill those who dare to do it!" King Gan understood that Hong Tiangui did not want to make the wealth of the Xinwang Mansion public. From Hong Tiangui's training of the new army, Hong Renxuan saw Hong Tiangui's ambitions, although the king of heaven is the lord of the kingdom of heaven, but with the successive battles, the descendants of the army have been lost, and the young king of heaven has only a fancy royal army on top, which can be described as shrinking, Hong Tiangui wants to use the wealth of the Fu Wangfu to support the western front of the British king to fight against Zeng Guofan, and use the wealth of the Xinwang Mansion to train the new army, Hong Renxuan naturally does not dare to slacken.
