"Put all of them in prison and investigate them carefully."

Zhu Yunxi ordered: "All goods will be seized. ”

"Yes!"

Jin Yiwei stepped forward in response.

"His Royal Highness Taisun wants to punish us for our crimes, and we have nothing to say, but we are not convinced."

Liu Zhixiang raised his head, looked at Zhu Yunxi and said: "In all dynasties, the emperor's relatives and relatives, and court officials do not need to pay taxes. ”

"But the commercial tax levied by His Royal Highness Taisun is not only extremely heavy, but even the royal family and clan cannot have half a reduction or exemption.

"Yes, I can't wait!"

"Yes, the Son of Heaven and the scholars rule the world together, how can there be any reason to tax the scholars?"

"Even the royal family has to pay taxes, it's unreasonable!"

One official after another was filled with righteous indignation.

In their eyes, it is natural that they do not pay taxes.

It's just that the imperial court has increased the business tax, so it should also be collected from the ordinary people, why should they pay it?

"The country has a system, the court has a law, and you can't just wait for clever words to cover up the past."

Zhu Yunxi snorted coldly and said: "As an official of the imperial court, you know the law and break the law, everyone has been captured, and you dare to quibble, and the crime will be added to the first degree." ”

"All of them should be dismissed from their official positions, and they will be immediately imprisoned, and then investigated and punished."

"According to the law of the Ming Dynasty, anyone who hides taxes from a businessman will be punished with fifty lashes!"

"Come on, execute them!"

Zhu Yunxi didn't want to debate with these people.

In their eyes, it is natural for them to enjoy privileges.

Any loss of privilege is a "mean and unkind" imperial court.

In their cognition, this kind of thinking is deeply rooted in the bone marrow.

What's more, it also involves its own vital interests.

It is impossible to be "said" convinced.

The only way is to subdue them and kill them!

Hearing the order, Jinyi Wei immediately stepped forward.

The officials who were present were caught one by one and executed on the spot.

Soon, there was a scream like killing a pig.

At this moment, on the boat next to him, there was a sudden sound of "plopping" and "plopping" diving.

Zhu Yunxi raised his eyes and saw a figure on the side of the ship, holding a crossbow arrow, aiming at him.

Zhu Yunxi's pupils shrank slightly, and in his eyes, he saw a sharp arrow breaking through the air and quickly enlarged.

Change came as fast as lightning.

When the light was up, Fang Xiao Tianwei.

"Be careful!"

It's too late, it's too soon.

Xu Miaojin snorted and pushed Zhu Yunxi's body away violently.

"Smack!"

There was a soft thud.

The little girl's shot was like lightning, and she shot the arrow away.

The man who shot the arrow, seeing that he had missed, rattled a few times in his mouth, as if cursing, and then jumped into the water and fled.

"It's a wolf." Jiang Xuan's face was as dark as ink.

Ouyang Lun's cargo ship, not only has goods, but also hides widows?

Are they trying to bring the pirates into Jinling City?

If he hadn't just come to investigate Ouyang Lun's tax evasion, he would have been mixed in by them.

"Not only do you evade taxes, but you also dare to collude with the Japanese invaders?"

Zhu Yunxi looked at the officials who were kneeling on the ground and had just been tortured, and his eyes were cold.

The accident just now came too quickly, if it weren't for Xu Miaojin by his side, his eyes and hands were fast, and he was almost stabbed by a sharp arrow.

In total, this is the third time he has been assassinated.

Everything can be one or two, but not three.

It seems that precautions will have to be strengthened in the future.

Otherwise, there is really no guarantee that one day the boat will capsize in the gutter.

"His Royal Highness Taisun Mingjian, I don't dare to wait!"

The people who knelt on the ground were so frightened that their faces were like earth, and they kowtowed like drums.

After being flogged and dismissed from official positions, they were still very tough.

After all, many of them come from prominent families.

After the dismissal, life can also be very comfortable.

Moreover, after being an official in the DPRK for so many years, the relationship network is complicated.

Maybe when, under the care of "friends", it will be reused again?

But if you are involved in the case of secretly hiding the widow and assassinating the grandson, it will really be over.

Thousands of knives, raiding the family and exterminating the clan.

Even if one day, the grandson is deposed as the prince, there will be no day to turn over.

How can they not be afraid?

The thoughts in Zhu Yunxi's mind were racing.

According to common sense, colluding with the Japanese is no worse than tax evasion, it is a serious crime that will harm the whole family, and even if someone dares, he will definitely act in secret, and will not let too many people know.

Although these officials dare to collude with tax evasion, they should not dare to collude collectively with the Japanese invaders.

It's no different from gathering together to rebel.

With these people, if their brains were not kicked by a donkey, it would be impossible for them to get together and rebel.

It should have been done secretly by Ouyang Lun.

But Ouyang Lun, as a lieutenant of the horses, it is not difficult to understand that he evades taxes and evades taxes to make money, and it is really a bit unbelievable to risk killing his head and exterminating the clan to hide the Japanese pirates.

It seems that his case is not so simple.

"Arrest all the relevant people on the ship and investigate."

Zhu Yunxi said to Jiang Xuan: "This case will be handled by you, and you must find out as soon as possible." ”

"Yes!" Jiang Zhen hurriedly responded.

His forehead was covered with dense beads of sweat.

Ouyang Lun smuggled goods and evaded taxes, so that's it.

Daming is not the only official who has done this.

This kind of thing is not under the control of Jinyiwei, and Jinyiwei can't control it.

But the Japanese almost got into the Beijing Division, that is the serious dereliction of duty of the Jinyi Guard.

Not to mention, His Royal Highness Taisun was assassinated again just now.

If something happens, even if he has 10,000 heads, he will have to move them all.

……

……

……

On the return trip, Zhu Yunxi got into the carriage.

Although his identity was revealed on the dock, the Jinyi Guard was tightly sealed at that time, and the people outside did not know about it.

By the time the news spread, he had already left in a carriage.

Originally, it was just to investigate Ouyang Lun's tax evasion, but unexpectedly, he found out that he colluded with the Japanese Bandits.

It's a pity that Ouyang Lun is dead and can't be asked anymore.

can only hope that Jiang Zhen can come out of other people's mouths.

The carriage clattered along.

Zhu Yunxi sat inside, thinking silently.

Zhu Yunwen met with Princess Anqing and Ouyang Lun.

Then Ouyang Lun secretly went to see Chang Mao, and Chang Mao sneakily met Qi Tai.

Now, it has been found that Ouyang Lun is secretly hiding a widow on a cargo ship.

reminds me of Xu Miaojin saying that he saw Zhu Yunxi meeting with the Japanese Kou.

Could it be that this is also his arrangement?

Zhu Yunwen really colluded with the Japanese and wanted to do something wrong?

Between Zhu Yunxi's eyebrows and eyes, the killing intent was condensed little by little.

If it was not necessary, he did not want to kill Zhu Yunwen.

Anyway, he is the second brother of the original body.

As long as Zhu Yunwen is honest, he doesn't mind offering him delicious food and drink at all, so that he can enjoy a lifetime of glory and wealth.

But if Zhu Yunwen is looking for death by himself, then it is no wonder that he is no wonder.

However, what does Zhu Yunwen want to do?

What's the use of stealing a few pirates?

Jinling City, a few widows, can't set off much of a storm.

If it was to assassinate him, then just now on the dock was the best opportunity.

But the other party obviously did not have any preparations, and the stabbing with crossbow arrows was more like a temporary idea.

If it was carefully arranged, he didn't get out of danger so easily.

If you enter the palace to assassinate, it will be even more difficult.

After all, the Japanese don't understand the language, and they are not from the Ming Dynasty after all.

Many behaviors are quite different from those of the people of the Ming Dynasty.

It's easy to get flawed.

If you really want to assassinate, concealment is the first thing, and it is impossible to use the widows.

What else can you do with them?

Is it worth taking a big risk to hide the other party in the cargo and secretly bring it to Jinling?

Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed in Zhu Yunxi's mind.

Yang Shiqi's words before suddenly sounded.

Could it be that they want to use the Japanese to assassinate Lao Zhu?
