Chapter 433: Leaving for Beijing? Yunzhou with chicken feathers!
Because of Zhu Gaoxian's order, these officials in Yunzhou City can be regarded as having fallen into blood mold.
Not only was he stopped outside the barracks all day long, but he also had to be asked by people from other families from time to time.
After all, after Shen Qingyu received Zhu Gaoxian's order and directly began to act against the arrested families, the blood light in the city suddenly almost made the rest of the people unable to sit still.
God, that's hundreds of lives!
In this way, he was dragged to the execution ground one by one by the Jinyi guards and those big-headed soldiers and cut off their heads alive!
After a few days, not only were the people of Yunzhou who went to watch the beheading out of curiosity startled, but even those officials who were still somewhat relieved gradually began to become flustered.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince seems to have been furious because of the assassination?
Is it that after killing these big families, it will be our turn to start coming?
And the rest of the families also panicked.
What's going on?
I only cut off the heads of a few people before, why are we about to kill all the people of those families in the past few days?
Looking at the actions of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, are we about to start toppling the frieze......
Finally, someone couldn't hold it back, and recommended a few leaders, and quietly came to the mansion of the governor of Yunzhou City in the middle of the night.
There is no way, now Yunzhou City has been ordered by Zhu Gaoxian to be under military management, the streets are full of sergeants and soldiers who maintain order and patrol, and there are large armies stationed outside the city, knights are wandering, they can't run if they want to, they want to gather and discuss for fear of attracting Zhu Gaoxian's attention, so they can only sneak here at night......
"Lord Zeng, you must save us!"
As soon as they met, among these people, either the head of the family or the patriarch, they all spoke in unison, and their expressions were extremely urgent.
"Now that the army is closed down, that His Royal Highness is murderous and heavy, I am really afraid that we will follow in the footsteps of the Zhang family again, and there will be no place to bury ......"
When Zeng Zhizhou heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, and he didn't say anything, but just responded in vain:
"Sit, sit, drink tea first, drink tea and then discuss."
Everyone was already in a hurry, for fear that their family would become the next Zhang family on the second day, where did they have any thoughts to drink tea at the moment, but they kept pleading around him:
"Lord Zeng, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is clearly killing chickens and monkeys, and using the topic to play, now that the Zhang family and those families have been raided and exterminated, almost uprooted, isn't it enough? Does he have to kill this Yunzhou City and shed a river of blood? ”
"Exactly, Lord Zeng, he is about to return to Beijing to ascend the throne and become the emperor, how inappropriate it is to see blood here, why do you have to stare at us in Yunzhou?"
"Alas, now I don't even dare to go to the street, the street is full of those soldiers, all of them are fierce, I am afraid that I will enter my house at any time and make a death and annihilation......"
Seeing that everyone was crying to him, Zeng Zhizhou finally couldn't avoid it, he suddenly put the teacup in his hand on the table, and there was a bang, and the tea splashed!
"You know he's making an example of the monkeys!"
"You also know that he is about to ascend the throne as emperor!"
He looked around at everyone, his tone was not sad or happy, and his face was heavy:
"From ancient times to the present, how many dynasties, which one dares to assassinate the prince of the East Palace, can have a good end?"
"Not to mention our one, we are out-and-out wise and heroic, experienced in a hundred battles!"
"The Zhang family died by themselves and participated in the planning of the Jingshi, but they didn't know that with their strength of the soil buns, it was reluctant to be a local snake here in Yunzhou, once they participated in this kind of royal event, they would immediately die and be wiped out, and everything would be stopped! Thousands of family fortunes and the foundation of dozens of generations have disappeared in a blink of an eye! ”
"What about you? You ask yourself, have you ever received a summons from the Zhang family? Ever wanted to get involved? ”
Seeing that everyone shook their heads, he also soothed his emotions, and then continued to speak:
"I know you're all in a hurry, but don't be too anxious just yet."
"Because right now, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is just making an attitude of only punishing the first evil and not correcting the rest, and he is just pursuing people and things related to the assassination case."
"If you keep jumping up and down, which arouses his dissatisfaction, when the time comes, an order will come down, you just wait to go down and be with the Zhang family!"
Seeing Zeng Zhizhou speak like this, everyone suddenly fell silent and remained silent for a long time.
One person thought about it, and finally couldn't help but speak:
"Lord Zeng, my family must have never participated in it, and it can withstand investigation, but we have all participated in the previous grain and grass materials......
Previously, the teachers and students in Beijing were in turmoil, and they specially sent messengers to urgently deliver the news, demanding that the forces on the Yunzhou side, no matter how big or small, must delay the logistics of grain and grass.
At the beginning, here in Yunzhou, no one was optimistic about Zhu Gaoxian's lone expedition to Mobei, although there was a great victory in the face of Tatars, but with the arrival of the old emperor's "unexpected death" and other news, many people suddenly had strange thoughts.
You must know that the army's food, grass and supplies are an astronomical amount, even if it is only delayed for one day, you can rely on the share of the day to obtain countless additional benefits and benefits.
Therefore, the officials and families of all sizes in Yunzhou City have more or less participated in this matter, and they have tacitly played sloppy, wanting to get a piece of the pie.
As for whether Zhu Gaoxian will be defeated because of this, what does it matter to them?
When the sky falls, there are tall people on top of it, and besides, the law does not blame the public......
Even the severe punishment of the two grain overseers could not shake the actions of this group of people to delay the supply of grain and grass and steal profits, so that there was a delay in logistics grain and grass.
It wasn't until Shen Qingyu took five hundred brocade guards to suppress it strongly, and took out Zhu Gaoxian's royal gold medal, that this momentum was stopped and the logistics supply of the army was restored.
And all this, although it is done secretly, and there are obvious reasons to support it, but in the final analysis, it is always a serious crime that cannot be bypassed.
Now the Zhang family, who have eaten the lion's share, and the rest of the family have been raided and destroyed, although it is because they participated in the assassination of Zhu Gaoxian, but it also makes the rest of the forces in Yunzhou feel terrified.
If the grain and grass are poked out again, won't they all be finished?
Seeing that everyone was uneasy, Zeng Zhizhou sighed and said helplessly:
"I waited outside the barracks for three days before His Royal Highness the Crown Prince let people spread a word."
"The army is about to leave for Beijing, and here in Yunzhou, he is not going to do any major disposition."
"However, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants us to honestly explain to him all the causes and consequences!"
"Otherwise, the Zhang family will be our only fate in the future!" (End of chapter)
