Chapter 432: Donggong is furious, and the blood is drifting!
For Yunzhou City, the Zhang family, as well as the rest of the big families, are out-and-out local wealthy clans, and they are the kind of huge forces that will tremble by three points if they stomp their feet in Yunzhou City.
However, such a heroic family was actually surrounded by the army today, and even many were even hacked and killed?
This strong contrast made almost everyone in Yunzhou City look sideways and feel very uneasy.
Why did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince suddenly make a move against these major families?
And still act so vigorously and decisively?
After learning about this, the patriarchs of some other families began to inquire about the inside story from the officials they knew well, for fear that a butcher's knife would fall on them next.
However, the officials of all sizes in Yunzhou City were also completely confused at this moment.
Since the assassins had previously infiltrated the barracks under the guise of a reward team, Zhu Gaoxian actually did not trust the officials in Yunzhou City.
Except for Yang Rong of the cabinet and the two people sent by Xia Laoshangshu of the household department to supervise the grain and grass, he was skeptical of the rest of the Yunzhou officials, and even the entire Yunzhou officialdom.
Without him, the reason why the logistics of the previous army was delayed, in addition to the fact that some people in the capital took advantage of the death of the old man to make wind and rain, there seemed to be some problems here in Yunzhou City.
And Zhu Gaoxian is now rushing back to Beijing to deal with a lot of things, but he has no intention of delaying here in Yunzhou first, he originally wanted to let it go first, and then slowly concoct these guys in the future, but he unexpectedly encountered a group of assassins here!
As a result, Zhu Gaoxian felt a little unhappy.
How? You're kicking your nose in the face, you have to kill a few of them to extinguish the anger first, right?
As soon as he was angry, he directly decided the life and death of those families involved in this matter!
"Your Highness, the Zhizhou and Tongzhi of Yunzhou City outside, as well as Yizhixian County, are all waiting outside the barracks, and I want to see you......
As soon as Su Wu entered the tent of the Chinese military camp, he saw Zhu Gaoxian sitting at the desk and busy with his work, so he stood aside and began to report the situation directly.
After listening for a while, Zhu Gaoxian raised his head and asked:
"Shen Qingyu, how are things going?"
Seeing him ask, Su Wu hurriedly replied:
"At present, all the family properties are still confiscated, and all the people have been caught, and some dare to resist, or those who want to escape, they are all caught and killed, and there are no fish that have slipped through the net."
"It's just that these families have a huge family business and a lot of assets, so Shen Qingyu and the soldiers of the five military camps are still carefully checking and copying, so that there will be no mistakes and omissions."
When Zhu Gaoxian heard this, he put the pen in his hand aside and let out a sneer:
"Of course, the assets are quite abundant, these families, in Yunzhou for many years, it is said that from the time of Mengyuan, they have been in this place, after dozens of generations, they are out-and-out snakes."
"In Yunzhou alone, the Zhang family has more than 10,000 acres of fertile land, and the tenants do not know the number, lending and eating interest, and the family has produced two governors of the county and three of the same governors, and the rest of the families in the north have also married many times, which can be called the largest force in Yunzhou City."
"Shen Qingyu, they want to check it out, but I'm afraid that there won't be enough time today!"
Seeing that Zhu Gaoxian was so clear about the Zhang family, Su Wu couldn't help but silently sentence the Zhang family to death in his heart.
Good guy, you are rich and unkind, and you are even rampant in Yunzhou, but you want to participate in the conspiracy of those people and assassinate His Highness......
"As for the rest of the families, although they are not as arrogant as the Zhang family, they are also very strong."
"These people have an intricate and intertwined relationship, and they are inextricably linked to Yunzhou officialdom."
Zhu Gaoxian said with some annoyance:
"Originally, there was a logistical problem, so I wanted to rectify the Yunzhou officialdom, but I was in a hurry to return to Beijing, and the students of the Academy of Literature were all sent to the south for appointment, so I thought about slowing down first, and then slowly cleaning them up in the future."
"I didn't expect them to come to me in a hurry!"
"What is this trying to do? Will I be forced to the palace? ”
Su Wu cautiously spoke:
"Your Highness, I think it's perhaps, maybe these people suddenly saw the army set out to encircle and suppress these families, so they were a little flustered, so they thought about coming to inquire about the news......
"Humph!"
Zhu Gaoxian shook his head disdainfully and snorted coldly:
"Of course they will panic, and they should know to be afraid!"
"I, the dignified prince of the East Palace, actually encountered the assassination of dead soldiers here, and I didn't kill them all, which is already quite polite!"
"I don't want to see them yet, though, so let's just let them wait outside first."
"When Shen Qingyu has searched all those families, I will meet them again."
Su Wu agreed, and then asked:
"Your Highness, what should you do with these people you have caught?"
"Do you want to detain them all in the army first, or do you find another place and send someone to guard them strictly?"
Zhu Gaoxian didn't speak, closed his eyes slightly, and after thinking for a while, he slowly spoke:
"Tell Shen Qingyu that all the people who are in charge of these families, whether they are the head of the family, the clan elders, or other people, as long as they have decision-making ability and status in the family, they will all be beheaded and do not need to be imprisoned."
"The rest of the prisoners, except for the women and children of the side lines, were also beheaded."
"As for the women and children, they shall be punished as slaves and handed over to the government."
Su Wu was slightly stunned for a moment, this punishment can be regarded as quite severe.
According to Zhu Gaoxian's meaning, these families can almost be called annihilated, the main line and side lines were all beheaded, and only the women and children of the remaining branches survived and were punished as slaves......
Combined, there are at least thousands of lives lost in several major families!
And there is no future and no chance of turning over!
It can really be described as the emperor's anger, and the blood is drifting!
Seeing that Su Wu seemed to be a little puzzled why he was so ruthless, Zhu Gaoxian shook his head slightly and said in a deep voice:
"I am the prince of the East Palace, and I am about to ascend the throne, and they dare to participate in this kind of rebellion, and they are already lucky not to be exterminated by the Nine Clans."
"I always cut the grass and eradicate the roots of my work, and I will not keep these tails and jump out to disgust people in the future."
"Since they dare to do it, they must also be prepared to bear the consequences of this matter!"
"Raiding the family and exterminating the clan, this is the end of angering me!" (End of chapter)
