Alliance of the Heavens and Ming Dynasty

Chapter 126 Human desire is like a rolling stone on a mountain

"What did you say?"

Zhou Kui thought he heard it wrong, his grandson didn't help him out, and let Jin Yiwei and these hateful stinky people arrest him?

After all, who is with whom is a family!

Jin Yiwei didn't care so much, with the order of the prince, they no longer had any fear, rushed up like a wolf, and tied Zhou Kui up.

"His Royal Highness, I am your grandfather, you can't treat me like this."

Zhou Kui was still yelling, but he didn't notice that Zhu Cihong was looking at him more and more dangerously.

锵

The precious sword was out of its sheath, and the cold light was shining, and I saw Zhu Cihong holding the long knife and putting the blade on Zhou Kui's neck, with an extremely indifferent expression: "You are ashamed to mention that you are the head of the country, this is what you should do as the head of the country ?”

Pointing at the pile of white money, Zhu Cihong had the urge to chop Zhou Kui alive.

It's nothing more than being greedy for other nobles. After all, it has long been a tradition for nobles to make money, but Zhou Kui is different. He is Zhu Youjian's father-in-law, and he is the closest to their family.

It stands to reason that Zhou Kui should not be a hindrance if he does not help Zhu Youjian, but the fact is on the contrary, Zhou Kui is not only creating obstacles for Zhu Youjian, but also digging the foundation of Daming.

With such a father-in-law (father), Zhu Cihong felt worthless for his parents.

It is also more convinced that Zhu Houzhao is right. No matter who is on the opposite side of the imperial power and can endanger the Ming Dynasty, they should all be damned, regardless of their closeness.

"take away."

Zhu Cihong was too lazy to talk nonsense with Zhou Kuiduo, so he directly ordered Jin Yiwei to take Zhou Kui away, and took away with him all the wealth that Zhou Kuina had accumulated for a long time.

Afterwards, completely ignoring the cries of Zhou's family, he took Jin Yiwei to the next house, and the road to ransacking the house had just begun.

In the study room of the imperial palace, Zhu Youjian, Zhu Biao, Zhu Gaochi and others worked hard to analyze, understand, and think about solutions to various hidden dangers of the Chongzhen Dynasty.

Only Lao Zhu and Zhu Houzhao didn't do anything serious, just sat and chatted while drinking tea.

"Zhu Houzhao, you are such a bastard, Zhu Cihong was originally a good young man, but you turned into such a murderous look."

Jin Yiwei kept carrying the money from the confiscated house to the palace, and the sound of gold and silver colliding came out from time to time. After hearing this, Lao Zhu couldn't help complaining.

"I just taught him how to behave as a prince of a country."

"Indecisiveness, kindness and loyalty will not make you a great weapon."

"If he can't change, then he won't be able to support Daming in the future."

Zhu Houzhao smiled lightly and said: "Besides, it's not that I changed him, but that he himself is changing himself. If he doesn't make progress himself, even if I have the power to reach the sky, it is impossible for a person to change his temperament in a short period of time." .”

"What I can do is to induce his desire and arouse his enthusiasm for Daming Jiangshan. With this enthusiasm, he will have such a huge change."

"desire?"

Old Zhu was puzzled, he had perfected his emperor's mental skills and reached the pinnacle, but he didn't have much research on psychology.

"Life is full of different situations. Some people are greedy for money, some are lustful, some are lustful for power, and some are chasing profit. But all people's likes and dislikes can be regarded as a kind of desire."

"Zhu Cihong has infinite enthusiasm for Daming Jiangshan, this is his desire, because of this desire, he can cut off all obstacles, fear, fear, fear, in front of his desire, everything will be crushed!"

"Desire is like a rolling stone on a high mountain. Once it starts, it can never stop!"

Zhu Houzhao sighed and said: "He is even better than I expected. Ever since he wanted to protect Daming Jiangshan, he has been fearless. The Donglin Party, the nobles, these moths will only be the nourishment that catalyzes his growth."

"Grandfather, you only saw him becoming decisive, but I saw his future. Driven by desire, his growth rate is very fast, and his future is limitless."

In Zhu Cihong's body, Zhu Houzhao seemed to see his former self, it was too similar!
A long time ago, he was not a simple-minded young man, but power is the most poison that can cause desire to expand, he couldn't resist, so he changed, became a slave of power, and lived for power, no matter what he did , will be considered from the perspective of power.

He is very similar to Zhu Cihong, but not at all.

"Let's wait and see!"

To Zhu Houzhao's "desire theory", Lao Zhu just smiled.

"You asked Zhu Cihong to raid Xungui's house, why didn't you clean up the Qi Party, the Chu Party, and the Zhejiang Party?"

Old Zhu asked, with a calm tone, and put Zhu Houzhao on an equal footing with himself.

Although he doesn't like Zhu Houzhao's behavior, he has to admit that Zhu Houzhao's ability is second to none among his many descendants, and he is qualified to pay attention to it.

In terms of benevolence, Zhu Houzhao is inferior to Zhu Biao, Zhu Gaochi, and Zhu Youtang; in terms of military strategy, Zhu Houzhao is inferior to Lao Zhu and Zhu Di; in terms of emperor's mind, Zhu Houzhao is also inferior to the old Taoist Zhu Houcong.

But his vision of the overall situation and his great courage are not comparable to those of the old Zhu family. Zhu Houzhao dared to be an enemy of the world, and carried out reforms against the criticism of the world's vested interests, but the old Zhu family did not dare.

This is also the reason why Zhu Houzhao really recognized Zhu Houzhao. Regardless of Zhu Houzhao's final success or failure, Zhu Houzhao's actions are worthy of admiration.

Those who dare to be the first in the world, regardless of their reputation, are people who should be remembered in history.

"Killing is also an art, take your time, don't rush."

Zhu Houzhao's tone was flat, but what he said made people shudder: "Da Ming needs to work, kill them all, wouldn't the court become an empty shell."

"Leave them alive for a while, and it won't be too late to settle the score with them when the situation stabilizes."

It is necessary to employ people, but also to kill people, and to wait until the use value is exhausted before killing. These methods are too vicious.

Even old Zhu who kills without blinking an eye can't help but be speechless: "You are so cruel."

In fact, he is no better than Zhu Houzhao. Hu Weiyong had no intention of rebellion at all, at most he had too much power, and in order to abolish the prime minister system, he abruptly labeled Hu Weiyong as a rebel, destroyed all his families, and implicated countless people .

To be honest, Zhu Houzhao also inherited from him. After all, Zhu Houzhao is his descendant, and Zhu Yuanzhang's blood flows in his body.

"Is it cruel?"

Zhu Houzhao smiled slightly, the meaning is not clear, it is fine to kill people after using them. Wouldn't those prisoners in Liaodong who "worked day and night" be equivalent to going to hell!

"Destroy the Donglin Party first, then copy the nobles, and then it's Shanxi Shanxi merchants' turn."

The eyes are full of coldness and murderous intent. It is only natural for a businessman to make money, but he should not have no bottom line, smuggle illegally, subsidize enemy countries, Shanxi Shanxi merchants, death is not a pity.

There is no national border for doing business, but businessmen are divided by country.

Qiao, Chang, Cao, Hou, Qu, Kang, Fan, Kong

The eight great families of Shanxi merchants should destroy their ancestral temples, punish their nine clans, and exterminate their descendants!
