Chapter 226
The so-called post-gold spies are just a superficial statement. If you really dare to fool the emperor with this thing, then Dongchang and Jinyiwei should not be mixed.
After the two major secret agencies of the Ming Dynasty jointly handled the case, the truth of the matter was quickly ascertained. The beggars privately set up a firecracker workshop on the overpass, and because of poor management, the firecracker workshop exploded, which caused a chain reaction.
Zhu Youxiao was so angry that his head was smoking, and cold sweat broke out on his back.
The overpass is so close to the Temple of Heaven, no wonder when I returned to the palace, there was a mess outside the Temple of Heaven. There were human corpses everywhere, as well as various building debris. Many people were lying on the ground with hideous faces, apparently shocked to death.
His mother killed his son because of a group of people who asked for food. The empire has no future heir, and Zhu Youxiao angrily pointed at Wei Zhongxian's nose in the palace and scolded. The ground in the capital is not very peaceful, what will those countryside be like?
Wei Zhongxian, who was scolded, was furious, and his mother dared to do such a thing in the capital. not only almost killed the emperor, but also almost killed Lao Tzu.
As a result, many turtle grandchildren poured out of their nests and began a month-long crackdown in the capital. Led by Jin Yiwei and co-organized by Dongchang, it focuses on cracking down on crimes related to crime and vice. Even the Shenji Battalion was affected, and several lieutenants lost their heads. The main general, Pang Wanchun, was put in prison by Jinyiwei, and it is estimated that it is not easy to come up with it in this life.
Naturally, the beggar gang is the focus of the crackdown, and when the state apparatus wants to slaughter a gang, you will find that those lively guys are worse than dogs.
Tian Ergeng was scolded by Wei Zhongxian, and after he went back, he scolded Xu Xianchun for being bloody. Xu Xianchun, who was angry, gathered thousands of brocade guards. With lightning speed, he raided the helm of the beggar gang in the capital.
The helmsman of the beggar gang who had just been arranged in the mourning hall not long ago, where was the wolf-like Jinyi guard's opponent. On this night, the beggars were killed, and a river of blood flowed. The Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies also encircled and suppressed the various rudders of the beggar gang.
Overnight, the beggar gang became a rat that everyone shouted at in the capital. In just two days, the beggar gang that rampaged the capital became history.
There are also some beggar disciples who can't see the situation clearly, so they set fire to it at night, or attack me on a single errand service. Or maybe it's to harm the families of Jinyiwei and the officials!
This time it was even worse, the original knife was only aimed at the upper echelons of the beggar gang. This time it was good, the butcher knife was indiscriminately extended to all the beggars in the capital.
As long as he heard the voice of the Houjin Tartar, he was frightened by the forbidden army whose legs were weak. In front of these beggar gang disciples, they were all more fierce than the big-tailed wolf. Hordes of beggars were taken to the depths of Yanshan, stabbed in the neck and thrown off the cliff. As for whether it was eaten by a wolf or a fox, no one cares. Anyway, the bigwigs have been hating beggars very much lately, so you deserve to be unlucky.
Xie Youcai looked at Li Xiao with great awe, there are almost no beggars on the street these days. And even if there were, it was just a few children, and old men with gray hair and beards. Usually a group of guys seem to evaporate from the world. I heard that they were all taken away by officials, but no one knows where they were taken. The gossip in the official office was sent into the mountains and "clicked".
Don't look at this master, he is not yet twenty years old this year, but his wrist is really ruthless. There are tens of thousands of beggars in the capital, plus ordinary beggars who are connected, I don't dare to think about how many people Xie Youcai has.
It's only been a few days, and it's gone.
The generals of the Shenji Battalion were all killed by dozens of people. The once vigorous Shenji Battalion is now like a frightened cat, hiding at home and reluctant to go to the barracks. For fear of being bitten out by some guy, and then the head was hung on the flagpole waiting to dry.
It is said that the dog that bites people does not bark, Xie Youcai looked at Li Xiao who was eating braised pork. This guy eats people, and he definitely won't spit out bones.
Li Xiao was eating braised pork leisurely, and things were going too well. The conscience of heaven and earth, at the beginning, he just wanted to kill Hong Qi. Who the hell knew that Hong Qi actually got so much gunpowder from the Shenji Camp. Listening to the news heard by the fifth master, there are tens of thousands of catties of gunpowder.
Oh my God! Tens of thousands of pounds of gunpowder to make firecrackers? This gunpowder is enough for you to eat for a while. If you get gunpowder, you can't keep it well, and you don't know any common sense of safety and fire prevention.
As for the death of the prince, this is even more damn unexpected. Li Xiao didn't care who was the crown prince at all, God knows how those learned guys in the Ministry of Rites chose that day. In fact, according to the trend of history, Zhu Youxiao should also be hung up this year. It's August now, and the fucking dragon can trample his son to death. It doesn't look like it's sick.
Surely history has quietly changed. Zhu Youzhen, who worked hard and bankrupted the Ming Dynasty, is still the first heir to the throne. But at this time, he was still just believing in the king, and he had to hide in the palace of the king and pretend to be his grandson.
"The land on the overpass, what do you mean by being nine thousand years old?" Li Xiao asked Xie Youcai. If he could avoid it now, he tried not to meet Wei Zhongxian. On the one hand, he rejected this superb scum in his heart, and on the other hand, he always felt that Wei Zhongxian was not far from bad luck. Avoid meeting now and there will be a lot less trouble in the future.
When other general soldiers come to the capital, the father and mother can not visit them first. But he had to report to Wei Zhongxian's mansion, but Li Xiao was the only one who tried not to face Wei Zhongxian as much as possible. However, Wei Zhongxian also boasted when he met people, saying that he knew the rules of the imperial court in general!
Li Xiao understands most damn in his heart that when Xie Youcai went to give a gift, it was not a car. It's all hard currency in demand in the capital, such as the big front door. Others just want to give it away, but this thing is so easy to get. Not to mention that it is like Li Xiao, there are several boxes in one delivery. Wei Zhongxian actually didn't care if anyone came to see him, he cared more about an attitude.
Sometimes, the weight of the gift also represents an attitude. Wei Zhongxian admires Li Xiao's practical attitude.
"Nine thousand years old promised to give that piece of land to the adults for you to rebuild, but he asked for twenty percent of the dry shares." Xie Youcai looked at Li Xiao with some embarrassment.
"You promised?"
"Uh......! Promised! Xie Youcai was very afraid that because he made his own decisions, he would cause Li Xiao's displeasure. looked at Li Xiao with a weak heart, for fear that this young man who eats people and doesn't spit out bones will run wild.
"Since I agreed, I will do what the nine thousand years old said." Li Xiao didn't really care whether Wei Zhongxian had one percent of the shares or two percent of the shares, in his opinion, Wei Zhongxian could guarantee it. The construction site in the capital does not have anyone looking for trouble, and this is the most important thing.
In order to save one percent of the shares, he not only offended Wei Zhongxian. Those officials in the court will come over and bite like hungry wolves, and at that time will be the real loss. Now that the big hooligans have been bribed, the little hooligans at the bottom are all obedient, and they still earn it themselves.
A lot of the time, it's the bottom imps who are the toughest. Li Xiao didn't want to cause that trouble, so he simply threw the trouble to Wei Zhongxian. borrowed the courage of those little officials, and they didn't dare to trouble Wei Zhongxian. There is really such a thing, as long as the steward of Wei Zhongxian's family comes forward, it will scare those fierce officials like tigers.
"No!" Hearing Li Xiao's promise, Xie Youcai's hanging heart could be put down.
"I will go back to Shanhaiguan in a few days, and you can ask Chen Lao about the affairs of the capital. The expenses of 20,000 soldiers are borne by you, but don't make me run out of rice by then. ”
"The villain will definitely do his best, if it weren't for your appreciation. The villain is now just a big teapot in the Qinglou, doing cheap errands that make people look down on. Now the villain's mother and son are living a good life, and some time ago, Ai was in charge of the house. The villain is content! ”
"It's good to be content! Those who follow me, as long as there is nothing wrong, I will still give it to you. Li Xiao replied lightly.
"No! The villain made a note of it! Xie Youcai hurriedly bowed his head and nodded.
"Oh! By the way, this roast duck Yang is a good man. Find a lively place and open a roast duck restaurant for him. Tell him that the duck rack is boiled into soup with some tofu ......! ”
"No! This roast duck restaurant also asks adults to give it a name! ”
"Oh, it's called Quanjude!"
"No!"
After telling Xie Youcai, Li Xiao changed his clothes and left the Tongzhou Cheap Fang headquarters with only the roast chicken brothers.
The crown prince is dead, and I am afraid that the happiest person in the capital is Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters. The second and third happiest are Wang Tiqian and Wang Chengen. As for the second happier and the third happiest, who is happier in the end, it can only be said that it is difficult to distinguish.
Wang Tiqian has endured very hard recently, and he is obviously happy in his heart. But his face has to pretend to be a dead father, and his face is wrong for decades, which has almost made Wang Tiqian schizophrenic.
Today's business trip was early, and Wang Tiqian arrived home early. It happened that Wang Chengen also arrived, and the brothers renovated two side dishes in the study and drank a cup to celebrate.
Wang Tiqian rarely drinks alcohol because he is afraid of drinking too much and talking nonsense. Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, and living in the palace can be described as the highest test of human intelligence and emotional intelligence. Only the best guys can laugh and say that in the end, every year there are smart people who lose their official positions and even their lives because of nonsense.
"Huh! Big brother, this Wuliangye is good. If nothing else, just smelling the smell is good wine. We haven't had a drink together for half a year! Wang Chengen picked up the wine glass with a smile and sniffed the Wuliangye in the glass intoxicated.
"Li Xiao's kid gave it, and he was willing to take away two bottles when he drank it. But don't be greedy, if you say the wrong thing, it's a fatal thing. Wang Tiqian and Wang Chengen touched a glass and drained the wine in the glass.
"Be happy, master!" Putting down the wine glass, Wang Tiqian asked.
"Master, don't mention how happy, no one expected such a thing to happen at the crown prince's canonization ceremony. The prince let Banzai Ye trample to death, if it wasn't for what you said, I wouldn't believe it.
The beggars are really dead, and tens of thousands of catties of gunpowder have been hoarded in the overpass. This is a fucking rebellion! I think those guys in the Shenji Battalion killed right. The three major battalions in the capital should also be rectified. Tens of thousands of catties of gunpowder, tens of thousands of catties of stealthily sold out, this is worth it. Wang Chengen took a bite of the dish, but did not delay while eating.
"Huh! They are all crazy people, crazy people who want money, crazy people who make money. Wei Zhongxian had already ordered someone to investigate, and he had already cut dozens of them. It's all the hands of Jinyiwei, and when it comes to Xu Xianchun's hands, it's impossible not to say something. People like Yang Lianzuo Guangdou didn't die at his hands in the end. ”
"But then again, big brother! In these years, where are there officials who are not greedy, and where do officials who are not greedy get the money to pay filial piety to their superiors. If you are not filial, who will promote you? Today's officialdom is like this, who can be an official if you don't run, don't invite, don't send. Where does the money come from, it's not greedy. You can't take that pitiful amount of money out of it and give it to your boss as a gift.
The expenses in this capital are so large, and the family can't live anymore. ”
"It's not just today, our Ming Dynasty except for Taizu Hong Wuye. What generation of officials didn't do this way! More than 200 years have passed in a daze, as long as there are people's lives, they will live like this. If you want to be a clean man, then you have to be fucking poor.
In the previous dynasty, there was a man named Hai Rui, and his family was poor and virtuous. Eating meat has become a talking point in Zhejiang. You expect all the officials in the world to do this, how is that possible? Let's mix it up! ”
"Let's live!" Wang Chengen picked up the wine glass, and the two brothers touched another glass.
"This time, the beggars are out of luck. Big brother, didn't you say that the beggar gang was looking for trouble with Li Xiao? What do you say about this, will it have anything to do with that kid Li Xiao? ”
"It shouldn't matter! It was not the beggars who were making trouble for Li Xiao, but Qian Qianyi from Jiangnan. You know this person, Jiangnan Mingshi. Li Xiao's business overwhelmed many businessmen in the south of the Yangtze River, so they sent this Qian Qianyi to the capital to prepare to bring down Li Xiao. That guy is really fucking rich, and he has the support of the Jiangnan chaebol behind him, and his strength cannot be underestimated. ”
"Qian Qianyi?"
"You recognize?"
"He asked me to meet my master once, and then he summoned him several more times. The conversation was all in the secret room, and I don't know what he talked about with the master. ”
"What can I talk about, the master doesn't want to win the support of the Jiangnan chaebol. After Donglin fell, Wei Zhongxian tried his best to get money from the hands of the Jiangnan chaebol. Presumably, those rich people in Jiangnan are already hurting to the bones.
If the master really lives in the Qianqing Palace, it is estimated that the first thing they will do when they wait for the master is to kill Wei Zhongxian. Those rich men in Jiangnan are now willing to do anything to kill Wei Zhongxian. ”
"Wei Zhongxian was going to be killed!" Wang Chengen said indifferently, in his opinion, he killed a Wei Zhongxian. Winning the support of the Jiangnan chaebol is a very good deal.
The brothers were talking when suddenly there was a knock at the door.
