Chapter 358: The Unconscious Monarch
The Emperor of the Apocalypse gave Ma San a promise with great vigour.
But he couldn't help muttering in his heart, Fengqiu County, why is Fengqiu County, and what is the difference between this Fengqiu County?
Thinking like this in my heart, but suddenly I was more energetic, and Zhang Jingyi gave me a long face.
It's really time to go to Fengqiu and take a good look.
He put his hands behind his back, and when he turned around, he naturally wouldn't give the officials a good face.
Immediately, he drove back to the palace.
Of course, Zhang Jingyi stuffed a silver ingot to Ma San, and a silver ingot was just for Ma San, which was already considered a year's or two years of income, and Ma San was of course grateful: "Who is the official?" ”
Zhang Jingyi smiled and said, "Zhang Jingyi." ”
When Ma San heard this, he actually became serious and bowed deeply to Zhang Jingyi: "It turns out that the official is the new county marquis, and he is disrespectful." ”
In fact, don't look at Ma San's roughness, and he hasn't even read any books, but in fact, he ...... He is also a wise man.
In fact, ordinary people follow traditions and etiquette more, they are real passive importers of culture, and they are most willing to abide by feudal etiquette, whether it is good or bad traditions.
On the contrary, they are scholars, who are obviously exporters of culture, but in fact, they say one thing and act another, and they will not stubbornly follow a fixed custom or rule, and all principles and culture are just for their own interests.
It's as if the missionary people did a good deed, they really gave away what little money they had in their families.
But if scholars or rich families persuade people to do good deeds, but they always make a little fame here, maybe people can still make a lot of money from good deeds.
Therefore, the common people do small kindness, the money is taken out, and the rich do great good, and they are even called such and such great good people, but in fact, they may take away the small good money of the poor people.
Although Ma Sanfang was rude, he was like a quail in front of Zhang Jingyi at this time.
After saluting, he said respectfully: "Thank you for the gift." ”
Zhang Jing looked embarrassed, only smiled casually, and left.
When he returned to King Xin's mansion, he saw the Emperor of the Apocalypse gritting his teeth and looking at him and Zhu Youzhen: "See? See? Imperial brother, Zhang Qing ......"
There are only three people here, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse can speak freely: "We have been deceived, and there is not a word of truth in the mouths of these people." ”
Zhu Youzhen's anger was mobilized again, he clenched his fists with a gurgling sound, and said with a gloomy face: "Brother Huang, with these people, I am afraid that the people of the world will oppose the imperial court, and the ancestors' rivers and mountains will collapse sooner or later." ”
The Emperor of the Apocalypse sighed and said, "Zhang Qing, why don't you speak?" ”
Zhang Jingyi smiled bitterly: "If you want to do big things, the most important thing is to know who is Your Majesty's enemy, who is Your Majesty's friend, who can be wooed, and who must be attacked." Your Majesty and His Royal Highness King Shin are aware of the harm of this gentry, and it is certainly good that they are determined to change. ”
"But how to change, what to change in the end, what to change into, what resistance will be encountered in the process of change, I think Your Majesty still needs to think clearly! Anything, you can't do it with a hot brain, you always have to think about it in the long run, but once you decide to do it, you can't turn back, you can only cut through thorns and thorns all the way, and live to die. ”
The Emperor of the Apocalypse felt that it was reasonable, and he nodded in agreement: "This is reasonable, so let's start with the first step." ”
On the other side, after several days of torture, a large amount of gold and silver was unearthed, and there were more than 6 million taels of gold and silver on the books.
These hundreds of gentry and scholars are really worth a lot of money, you know, at this time, the vast majority of the people don't even have ten taels of silver a year.
And this is just cash, their land and grain, now need to be inventoried by their provinces and counties of origin.
This amount obviously shocked Zhu Youzhen again.
If there was such a silver at the beginning, these people only needed to donate one percent of the gold and silver, which was also hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, enough to recruit troops and buy horses, but at least it was more than enough to keep this return.
But these people not only refused to give a penny, but the terrible thing was ...... They are still so greedy that they clearly have tens of thousands of family fortunes, but they still don't know how to be satisfied, and they actually eat empty wages under the banner of his king of faith in various names, and create all kinds of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes.
This is no longer brazen, it can even be described as stupid.
Such a stupid thing is logically impossible for a normal person to calculate. They are all extremely intelligent individuals, who have read many books, and have a lot of means to accumulate wealth, so it can be said that they are the smartest people in the world......
But it's just such smart people who do the stupidest thing.
So much so that Zhu Youzhen couldn't understand why they refused to take out a little bit of gold and silver.
There seems to be only one word to describe it...... Sharp and dizzy.
Subsequently, a notice was posted here in the Confucian Temple, and hundreds of people were escorted to the Confucian Temple, and a group of people were tied into a string, and under the watchful eyes of hundreds of people, the Jinyi guard prepared knives and axes.
The people of Guide Mansion have come very early today, and this kind of watching the execution is the most exciting.
All of a sudden, the people filled the streets.
Then, the scribes began to roll call, and rows of people were escorted in.
By this time, the wail had already been heard.
Immediately afterwards, the lieutenants brutally escorted the people to the guillotine, tied up, and immobilized.
The big axe in his hand was chopped off fiercely.
The man who had been wailing before was suddenly separated from his head.
Those who were ready to be executed were paralyzed with fright.
"Spare my life, spare my life, I know my guilt, I know my guilt......"
But no matter how much these people pleaded, the executioners had no expression.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse was not far away, he had his hands behind his back, and there was no expression on his face, but he was forced to come here to watch the execution, but his face was already frightened, and even at this time, there was no whispering, and his eyes and face showed fear.
Rows of people can't be cut with knives, only with axes, but even so, for every three people, the axes still need to be replaced.
When the heads hit the ground one by one, blood splattered.
The people who were watching were boiling.
It seems that some people hate these people, or maybe some people just want to see the excitement.
But behind Zhang Jingyi, there seemed to be a Hanlin muttering in a low voice: "Heh...... These fools think that if they kill someone, it will do them good...... What a ......?"
Zhang Jing glanced back at Na Hanlin, who was busy bowing his head, but Zhang Jingyi smiled and said: "Whether it is good to kill is secondary, there are no such people in the world, it is important to the people." ”
The real finale is arranged at the end.
Wen Tiren and Wang Wenzhi were tied up and went to the execution ground.
The two men almost fainted when they saw the heads all over the ground, especially when they saw the head of their son.
But at this time, people began to strip off all their clothes, and after tying them up again, they began to strangle their bodies with fishing nets, and then the executioner took a dagger the length of a thumb, and after this fishing net strangled the flesh, the flesh bulged, and with a stroke of the dagger, a piece of meat was cut off.
The two of them immediately wailed in pain.
The dagger flew in the executioner's hand, cutting off a piece of flesh, followed by a second.
Every wail was accompanied by Wen Tiren's shouting: "Spare your life, spare your life...... Your Majesty...... Your Majesty......"
He first called His Majesty pitifully, and then the pain was extreme, so he scolded again: "Faint king...... You unscrupulous king, you are delaying me today...... Yes...... Yes...... Thou hast cast me to death today...... Future...... There's this newspaper too, haha...... Haha......"
Someone tried to plug Wen Tiren's mouth with a strip of cloth.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse laughed and pointed at the man: "Don't block it, there's nothing to block, let him scold ......"
The appearance of the Emperor of the Apocalypse laughing wantonly makes people look at it, but there is an indescribable calmness.
I'm in a showdown, I'm a faint king, I'm going to be a faint king.
At this time, the Emperor of the Apocalypse said to the executioner: "Cut slowly, don't be in a hurry." ”
The executioner was specially invited, a well-known person in the industry, who not only killed pigs, but also was responsible for killing.
However, Ling Chi and other things, after all, the business is very rusty, because there is no such opportunity to try on weekdays, he thought that he was ruthless enough, but after listening to His Majesty's orders, his hands couldn't help but tremble.
There are even more ruthless people than him.
Wen Tiren was in extreme pain.
He was about to faint several times.
But soon, he was awakened by the stinging pain of cutting the flesh, and so repeatedly, his spirit seemed to be on the verge of collapse. So, he began to realize that he begged for mercy again: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty...... Give the sinner a ...... Yes...... Let's have a good time, give a good time. ”
The Emperor of the Apocalypse just curled the corners of his mouth with a sarcastic smile on his face.
The ministers behind him were already silent, but someone secretly observed the Emperor of the Apocalypse.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse was unmoved, his eyes stared directly at Wen Tiren, who was constantly cutting flesh, and he still looked calm.
Such a look is already frightening.
Your Majesty...... It's too ruthless.
So vicious...... The future is uncertain...... The Ming Dynasty came with another Emperor Taizu Gao.
At this time, the Emperor of the Apocalypse is like a sculpture, but his heart is like water.
Later, Wen Tiren had become a bloody man, and there was no good piece of meat on his skin.
The executioner finished cutting the flesh from his arm, and then began to cut the flesh from the two inner strands, and the knife was very shallow, trying not to cut off the blood vessels, or touch the vital points of the body, and the pieces of flesh flew out.
Wen Tiren had the last bit of consciousness left, and he suddenly laughed wildly: "Hahahaha...... Unexpectedly, old man...... Yes...... Yes...... The old man has been shrewd and calculating all his life, and now he ...... Nothing, what ......"
He cried and struggled to say the second half of the sentence: "There is nothing left......
