Wei Zhongxian's face showed a look of sorrow, and then a wry smile on his face.

"Your Majesty, are you still going to kill me after all?"

"No way, Grandpa Wei, you are too flamboyant, which stimulates His Majesty's sensitive heart and makes him think of some bad past!"

As for the bad past, although Lu Fan did not say it explicitly, Wei Zhongxian naturally understood.

Before he ascended the throne, King Xin, in front of him at the age of 9,000, was a soft egg who was sincerely afraid of having no city, groveling and extremely weak!

The most embarrassing scene of himself was revealed in front of a eunuch, how could Zhu Youzhen, who is now in power, tolerate the other party to continue to live.

Although Zhu Youzhen's intention to Lu Fan was not to care about Wei Zhongxian's life and death, but in fact, the real meaning was to let the other party die!

Not only does he care about Wei Zhongxian's wealth, but as for Wei Zhongxian's life, Chongzhen doesn't want to keep it at all!

"Well, since it is inevitable to die, I wonder if Lu Qianhu can wait for a while, let me repair a little, and die a more dignified!"

Maybe he knew that he would die, Wei Zhongxian also saw it, smiled indifferently, looked at Lu Fan with deep meaning, and said, "If Lu Qianhu feels uneasy, you can send someone in to watch." ”

"Yes!"

Lu Fan nodded, turned over and dismounted, and then instructed Shen Lian: "You take someone to wait again, no one is allowed to approach without my order!"

"My lord!" Shen Lian frowned, wanting to go in with him, and Qianhu went in alone, he was a little uneasy.

"It's okay, I have my own measure!"

"Yes!"

Lu Fan made a decision, Shen Lian didn't dare to disobey at the moment, and after receiving the order, he led people to surround the entire hostel, prohibiting anyone from coming forward.

The owner of the hostel was already trembling and kneeling on the ground, he was just a businessman in a small county town, where had he seen the big scene of Jinyiwei killing, facing the legendary Jinyiwei, except for kowtowing, he didn't know what to do.

Without Lu Fan's orders, Yin Cheng stepped forward with a few Tiqi and blasted out the innkeeper and several guests in the store.

He knew what the Lord of Qianhu was going to do, and when he asked about Wei Zhongxian's property, the less people knew, the better.

The room where Wei Zhongxian lived was not as shabby as Lu Fan imagined, although it was not spacious, it was also elegant and quiet, and the various furnishings in the room were antique and fragrant, which was quite charming.

I have to say that this is a delicate person, even if he was defeated and degraded in the power struggle, he is still delicate in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation, and he is unwilling to wronged himself.

"Our family's shabby appearance made Lu Qianhu laugh!"

Perhaps because he saw life and death, Wei Zhongxian did not have the previous panic, sat on the wooden chair casually, and sighed with embarrassment: "Your Majesty is so desperate for me to die, it seems that the court should be stabilized and there is a suitable person to replace my place, right?"

"Actually, no!" Lu Fan's cheeks moved slightly, and he was silent for a moment before he spit out these words.

"Huh?" Wei Zhongxian was stunned for a moment, and then said in disbelief: "You mean, Your Majesty wants to kill me purely to vent his anger, not because he has already made follow-up arrangements, and there is no need for our family?"

“emm...... Your Majesty wants to kill you, in addition to venting his anger, he also takes a fancy to the forty carts of property outside you!"

The corners of Wei Zhongxian's mouth twitched when he heard this, and he said indignantly: "Those things are only worth a few dollars, and when they add up, they are just one million taels of silver, and this amount of money is not enough to stuff the teeth of the Liaodong defense line!"

"The annual cost of a single Liaodong defense line can range from millions to nearly 10 million taels of silver, and the treasury simply cannot support such a huge amount of money. But in the past three years that our family has been in power, not only can we distribute Liao Xiang on time, but we also have spare money to provide disaster relief to various places, and I don't believe that anyone in the court can do a better job than me!"

"Because of this, our family has always been very confident, thinking that as long as Your Majesty does not lack heart, he will not rashly pull out the cash cow of our family!"

"In terms of making money, Gonggong Wei, you are indeed an expert, I have advised Your Majesty to keep you before you find a suitable person, but unfortunately, your Majesty the Donglin Party has too much trust, and those people will not be able to spare your life!"

Lu Fan shook his head with some regret and sighed: "It's a pity, Gonggong Wei, you misjudged, Your Majesty is the one who lacks heart!"

"Uh......"

Wei Zhongxian was stunned for a while, and at this time, he carefully looked at Lu Fan's appearance.

"You should be a confidant of Your Majesty, right, so ridiculous about the Holy Lord, without the slightest awe?"

"It's just a king of a dead country, what kind of awe can you talk about!" Lu Fan smiled, facing Wei Zhongxian, a man who was going to die, he didn't hide the thoughts in his heart.

"The King of the Dead?"

Wei Zhongxian chewed on these four words, and after a while, he looked up to the sky and sighed, "The Ming Dynasty that our family has worked hard to maintain, I'm afraid, is really going to die!"

After sighing, he seemed to be looking back on his life, and he didn't care whether Lu Fan liked to listen to it or not, and said it all at once.

"Our family is not a good person, we were originally scoundrels in the market, and then we were forced to enter the palace and become a eunuch because of gambling debts. In the palace, our family tried their best to make friends with Wang An, the eunuch of the imperial palace, and was blessed by him.

Later, he got acquainted with the emperor's eldest grandson, that is, the wet nurse of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, and ate with him.

For the emperor's eldest grandson, our family did everything possible to flatter him and lure him to feast, which was very pleasing to him.

Later, the emperor's eldest grandson, Zhu Youxiao, ascended the throne for Xizong, and our family was on the rise, and gradually promoted to the eunuch of the ceremonial supervisor Bingbi.

Our family has done a lot of bad things in our life...... Murder of love enemies, murder of benefactor Wang An, framing of the queen's concubines, those who follow me prosper, those who oppose me die, a bad species like me, it is not an exaggeration to die ten thousand times!"

"But although our family is bad, our eyes are not blind, if I am a bad person, then nine out of ten of those pickled goods in the Donglin Party are bad pus-shedding bad embryos!"

"I'm a eunuch, and I still know that the Ming Dynasty is dead, and we eunuchs have to follow the calves. But those so-called Qingliu Donglin Party members, on the one hand, want to leave a name in history in the court, on the other hand, their family is trying to exploit the people as much as possible, annex land, and loot wealth, and they don't care whether the entire Ming Dynasty will be hollowed out by them!"

Speaking of this, Wei Zhongxian sneered, "Lu Fan, do you know how much wealth these people have? Our family just forcibly collected business taxes and mining taxes from them, at least more than 10 million taels of silver every year. ”

"With this money, our family can not only stabilize the defense line of Liaodong and keep the Manchurian Jiannu out of the pass, but also take out money and grain to help all places, and even, our family can still have a lot of money left every year to squander and enjoy!"

Lu Fan sighed lightly, "But it's a pity that the court is now occupied by those moths, and I heard that Your Majesty and the Donglin Party have begun to plan to cancel the commercial tax and mining tax." ”

As soon as these words came out, the two looked at each other speechlessly, and were silent for a long time, Wei Zhongxian shook his head helplessly.

"Therefore, it is really unreasonable to have such a heartless emperor in power, and the Ming Dynasty will not die!"
