Chapter 166 Killing people on behalf of the emperor for the sake of starving the world!

But soon, Zhu Yousong calmed down again, and said: "As long as those thieves don't get their way! Now I can only let you deal with it, but I still want to ask again, Marquis of Suizhou, you really don't worry about it. The consequences of killing the clan?!"

   "This Marquis is not killing without authorization, this Marquis is killing people on behalf of the emperor."

  Zhang Gui replied while playing with the flintlock pistol in his hand.

  Zhu Yousong smiled bitterly, and said again: "But the things that usurped the imperial power were all done by the conspiracy of the father and the long history. I am just a son, and I don't know about these things. I also ask the Marquis of Suizhou and Xia Zhongcheng to learn from them!"

"no!"

Shen Xianyou hurriedly denied a sentence at this time, and said: "Marquis of Suizhou, Xia Zhongcheng, although I am the chief official appointed by the court, I can't decide the affairs of the palace! Fu Wang and his son set up customs and taxes without authorization, and it was all done by Fu Wang and his son. , I just have to obey orders!"

   After hearing this, Zhang Gui asked Shen Xianyou: "So, do you know what crimes the Fu Palace has committed?"

   Shen Xianyou nodded and said, "I know!"

Immediately, Shen Xianyou said: "In addition to setting up customs to collect taxes, the people of Luoyang are also forced to eat the Huai salt they monopolize! And the merchants are forced to hand over the goods to the official stores controlled by the palace for sale, and they are not allowed to sell them in private stores. Passengers! In addition, **** and murder of civilian daughters, and **** and killing of scholars and civilians, etc., these are all things that a vassal king cannot do. But they did. Although I have persuaded them, they really did not listen!"

"Shen! You are talking nonsense. You clearly instigated your father to do this. You said that we are the royal family. It is okay to go too far! It is you who said that the lives of ordinary people are lower than those of the clan. Killing a hundred It is no different from killing a thousand people, we dare to do this, now you are blaming us again, and you said you persuaded, when did you persuade?!"

  Zhu Yousong was furious and scolded Shen Xianyou.

Shen Xianyou ignored Zhu Yousong, and just continued: "In these matters, especially about setting up customs to collect taxes, and relying on the presence of guards and horses in Luoyang City, replacing imperial decrees with royal decrees has nothing to do with conspiracy. Different! It stands to reason that, as a long historian, I should indeed report this matter, but I have been controlled by them, and I am not allowed to have contact with the outside world! Fortunately, Marquis of Suizhou has found out the plot of Fu Wangfu's treason. I also have the opportunity to come out and plead guilty to the court!"

As he said that, Shen Xianyou said: "I am willing to write all the sins of Prince Fu's mansion as a confession, and hand them over to the Marquis of Suizhou and Xia Zhongcheng to submit to the court, and I am willing to punish King Fu and his son for failing to prevent them from committing crimes! "

   "Then you will die!"

   Zhu Yousong suddenly gritted his teeth because of this, took out a short knife and stabbed Shen Xianyou directly in the chest.

  In an instant.

   Just when Zhang Gui raised his hand gun, he saw that the officer who was holding Zhu Yousong stabbed a bayonet into Zhu Yousong's back first.

  Zhu Yousong leaned forward suddenly, and blood began to flow from his mouth, but he still tried his best to say to Shen Xianyou: "Don't say it! Otherwise, when you arrive in the underworld, you will not be spared alone!"

  Then, Zhu Yousong fell to the ground, convulsed for a short time and didn't move again.

Shen Xianyou did not write such a confession because of Zhu Yousong's threat. In order to prevent himself from committing the crime of conspiring with King Fu and causing his Shen family to be ransacked and exterminated, he finally wrote this confession and sent his After the confession written by himself was handed over to Zhang Gui, he chose to commit suicide to show his integrity. Of course, in essence, he also wanted to preserve his own family.

   Next, Prince Fu's Mansion was naturally confiscated by troops led by Zhang Gui and Xia Yunyi.

  The rest of Prince Fu's Mansion were also escorted to Beijing to be dealt with.

  The Zhuangtian of Fuwang Mansion also began to be cleared.

  And these fields have to pay grain for Qingzhang, and the grain is paid according to the method of sharing per mu.

  As for the tax customs illegally established by King Fu and the royal decrees issued, all of them were naturally abolished.

  Ordinary merchants and common people in Henan were overjoyed, and they all rushed to tell each other.

  Although ordinary merchants and common people were very happy that the power of King Fu's Mansion was eradicated, for other vassals, this was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue.

  Kaifeng Mansion.

Zhu Suqin, King of Zhou, was shocked when he learned that King Fu and his son had been killed and the entire Zhuangtian of King Fu’s mansion was forcibly cleared, and he was also furious: "He Zhang Gui was born in a small family, but he acted recklessly and killed the clan! I hate it." Eat its flesh, sleep its skin!"

   "It's because of King Fu's refusal to accept the new policy. Since the Henan government has been confiscated because of the confiscation of King Fu's mansion, the new policy is still being implemented. Then, Kaifeng government may not be able to stand alone. Your Highness still needs to make plans early."

  After listening to Zhou Wang’s obvious dissatisfaction with Zhang Gui, Shi Wangji, the chief minister of the King of Zhou, also mentioned the New Deal that will be fully implemented in Henan at the moment.

  The king of Zhou heard the implication of Wang Ji's words, and was already aware of Wang Ji's intention to make him rebel.

  The King of Zhou also pretended to be curious and asked: "What do you think Gu Dang is going to do?"

  Wang Ji saw the king of Zhou asking this question, and said: "Nowadays, the dignitaries and gentry in the world have already suffered from it for a long time! As long as your highness dares to be the first in the world, you must follow like a cloud!"

   "Which powerful officials and gentry?"

   King Zhou immediately asked a question, and he was already aware of Wang Ji's desire to make him rebel.

  Wang Ji replied: "Almost all the dignitaries and gentry!"

  Wang Ji said this, Zhou Wang's suspicion of Wang Ji wanting him to rebel has increased to three points.

  So, the king of Zhou smiled and said, "You might as well make your words clearer."

   "Your Highness, don't you understand?"

   "Now this new policy is to make up for what's not enough, and to cut off my meat-eater's profit to make up for the starvation of the world!"

   "But who is willing to let the imperial court take away the inheritance accumulated by generations and distribute it to the poor!"

   "Could it be that Your Highness is willing to let the profits accumulated by the royal family in the past dynasties be distributed to feed the world's hungry?"

  Wang Ji saw that King Zhou was interested, so he continued to question him.

Because of this, King Zhou was aware of Wang Ji's thoughts, so he deliberately whispered: "So what if you don't want to? Why is your arm twisted over your thigh? Don't you all dare to curse the current emperor as a single husband behind your back?" Thieves!"

"Your Highness is right. Neither this lone husband thief nor his favored traitors are easy to deal with. Therefore, all the schemes against this lone traitor have been thwarted by the treacherous Zhang Gui! But no matter what, there is only this way now. Fang will not let it be slaughtered! Your Highness!"

  Wang Ji continued to speak in a low voice.

   King Zhou had five points of confidence in Wang Ji's mind, so he asked, "What path are you talking about?"

  Wang Ji looked around, and then said in a low voice: "Your Highness, you should know where it is."

   King Zhou suddenly had six points of confidence in the king's desire to rebel against him, and said: "Gu really doesn't know! Besides, if you don't explain this kind of thing, Gu will not dare to do it."

  Wang Ji also understood King Zhou's meaning after hearing this, and said, "Your Highness can go a step further because of this."

   King Zhou was 70% sure, but he still pretended to be puzzled and asked: "What is going further, I don't understand!"

   "Does Your Highness really have to wait for the people below to add clothes to you while you are asleep before you understand?"

  Wang Ji asked eagerly.

   King Zhou was 80% sure after hearing this, so he asked, "Add a robe?"

   "Yeah, yellow!"

  Wang Ji returned.

After King Zhou heard this, he was 90% sure of what Wang Ji wanted him to do, so he resolutely ordered: "You might as well write it down on paper, and write it clearly, so that the orphan dares to wear the imposed clothes, otherwise, there will be no one else. This guts!"

  Wang Ji was eager for success, and without thinking too much, he took a pen and dipped it in ink and wrote on the paper, and wrote the content of "Please Your Highness, please pray to Tian Jing".

   King Zhou picked up the piece of paper, looked at it carefully for a while, and was very sure about it in his heart: "Gu has decided!"

  At this time, Zhou Wang Shizi Zhu Gongyun walked in quickly: "Father! Marquis of Suizhou and Xia Zhongcheng have arrived in Kaifeng Mansion!"

  Wang Ji said after hearing this: "Your Highness, we can't wait any longer, we must immediately control Kaifeng City!"

  At this time, King Zhou suddenly said: "Come here, take the long history Wang Ji to Gu, drag him out and behead him immediately! In addition, immediately take out all the field books and account books of the palace, and go out of the city with Gu to set up an incense table ten miles away to meet the mission!"
