Chapter 472: The Family: We have to cut through the mess quickly!
Since learning that the imperial army had set up cards on the transportation arteries of the four provinces of Beizhili, claiming to be arresting suspicious people on the surface, but in fact they were staring at the messengers of the clans, Jiang, Qi, Yu and other family heads gathered together again.
In the Daimyo's Mansion, it was still the same deep mansion compound, and everyone gathered together, and the words were fierce.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is the most critical and urgent time!"
The head of the Cui family was full of pain on his face, and he couldn't wait to speak out:
"That dog emperor is obviously coveting my family wealth, red-eyed and murderous!"
"Don't look at what he hasn't done to us yet, when he finishes dispatching all the troops and pulling out all those brocade-clad eagle dogs, I'll be done!"
"They will all die without a place to be buried! These thousands of family fortunes and acres of mansions are all going to be robbed by the dog emperor! ”
Not long ago, the Cui family was one of the best families in the North, with a long history and strong strength, but with the greatest help of their Cui family in the imperial court, after Cui Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites was executed by Zhu Gaoxian, he immediately suffered an unprecedented heavy blow.
In the court, the officials who were related to their Cui family on the surface were either imprisoned or busily dissociated from the Cui family, directly cutting off their help and sources of information in the court.
What followed was the malice of the government towards the Cui family at the local level!
Although the Cui family itself has a strong strength, entrenched in Taiyuan for many years, and deeply cultivated Shanxi, the local government can't help but be jealous and have a lot of concerns, and dare not press too hard, and directly and blatantly attack them.
But with the passage of time, as well as the various measures made by Zhu Gaoxian in order to suppress these northern clans, the Cui family will inevitably suffer heavy blows again in the future!
It is even very likely that he will be reduced from a wealthy family in the north to a small landlord in a land!
After all, a few days ago, the governor of Shanxi issued a document to Taiyuan, asking for a new clarification of the local fields......
The head of the Cui family saw this very thoroughly, so he jumped up and down at this time, sparing no effort to advocate Zhu Gaoxian's malice towards them, hoping to inspire the same hatred and hatred of the other families, so that they could join forces to deal with Zhu Gaoxian together.
After all, not everyone has the courage and ability to deal with an emperor!
After listening to the words of the head of the Cui family, although everyone said that their faces were pale, no one spoke for a while.
Now that the strength of the Cui family has been greatly reduced, it is already the back of these major families, only ranking higher than the Zhang family, which was destroyed by Zhu Gaoxian in Yunzhou, and the lack of strength is the biggest problem and hard injury!
"Emperor Hong Xi wants to eat us, and now it is Sima Zhao's heart, and everyone knows it."
In the end, it was the head of the Yu family who opened his mouth:
"He really has a big appetite, he just came back from the Mobei grassland, and he doesn't think about how to stabilize the situation after he ascends the throne, but he always thinks about using us people!"
"I'm not afraid to burst his full mouth!"
The head of the Qi family squinted his eyes, and his face was gloomy:
"Those Tartars in the Mobei grassland are really some waste snacks!"
"On weekdays, I always claim to have millions of people who control the strings, and I am skilled in bowing and horses, but I was brought by this dog emperor to rush over with tens of thousands of horses, and both of them were wiped out?"
"Even if it's hundreds of thousands of pigs, it's not so easy to catch!"
His heart is simply dripping blood, and the secret trade with these alien races on the grassland has enabled their Qi family to make a fortune and accumulate strength in a crazy way, but now it has all come to naught and is completely shattered!
Harming people's wealth is like killing parents!
The current head of the Qi family has long been unaware of how many times he has cursed Zhu Gaoxian in his heart, and he can't wait to let this Ming Emperor die as soon as possible......
Seeing the head of the Qi family say this, the head of the Jiang family, who was sitting in the middle, finally couldn't help but speak:
"All of you here have more or less trade with the grasslands, and over the years, we have also saved a lot of land and household assets."
"I got the news from within the imperial court, although Emperor Hongxi said that the expedition to Mobei was victorious, but the household treasury of the imperial court was squandered, and the harvest he got from the grassland was not enough to be equal to the grain and grass spent, which can be described as a real reckless army."
"Now in the Beizhili area, although the price of grain has temporarily stabilized, it is mainly because we did not make a move some time ago, which allowed the imperial court to stabilize the situation."
"But now the emperor not only does not reward us for our meritorious servants, but instead has the idea of our family wealth, and wants to use it to fill the gap in the imperial treasury, which is simply a big joke in the world!"
"How can there be such a tyrant in such absurd behavior throughout the ages?"
When the head of the Jiang family said this, he slapped the table angrily, and his face was very ugly:
"Back then, he Zhu Yuanzhang killed Shen Wansan, who was dedicated to serving the court, and seized the wealth of the sky, but now it's good, this Zhu Gaoxian is also the same goods, and he actually started the idea of our good families!"
"It's really not a family, not a family, he Zhu Yuanzhang was a monk who asked for food, and he reached out everywhere to grab money, and now his grandson has also begun to grab it!"
More than 30 years after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, after three generations of emperors, in the north, these families are still unruly, and they do not have much awe for the emperor and the court.
Not to mention anything else, in the past 30 years, although the Ming Dynasty has almost unified the world on the surface, claiming to rebuild China and Dingding the Central Plains, but in fact, the rebellions in various places have never stopped, one after another.
Whether in the north, south, or west, it is not uncommon for rebels to be seen everywhere, and it is really common.
And the words of the head of the Jiang family are almost equivalent to the final word!
"Ladies and gentlemen, you are all the heads of your respective families, and in this situation, we must make a decision."
"In the face of such a critical situation, we must cut through the chaos quickly!"
The head of the Yu family also spoke out to help:
"I've heard that the troops near the Jingshi have been drawn one after another and are heading to the four provinces of the Northland, so I can't say that they are here for us."
"In addition, those brocade-clothed dogs chase and bite every day, if we really wait for the day when the soldiers are added, we will all die without a place to bury!"
Many family owners were shocked, since they were able to become a powerful clan in the north, in addition to the remnants of the ancestors, there were also a lot of various private means in secret, and the smuggling trade with those foreign races on the grassland violated the laws of the imperial court.
"Fight!"
Several people gritted their teeth and made the final decision in this mansion!
"Fight with that dog emperor!" (End of chapter)
