Chapter 505
Brother Zhao continued: "My family was also killed by the Hong thief, how can we not report the bloody revenge?!"

Including the three pillars, more than a dozen people around him echoed in a low voice, "Revenge! Kill the national traitor!"

Big brother Zhao saw the momentum of unity, nodded in satisfaction, and waved: "As discussed before, let's do it!"

Afterwards, Sanzhuzi and other seven or eight people spread out and lay down on the treetops and walls to the south of the Chief Envoy's Yamen to watch the wind. Brother Zhao led five people and pointed to the wall, "Come on, let's go in!"

Because the place was bombarded by cannons two days ago, only a temporary wall with a height of one and a half people was built temporarily, and several people could climb into the courtyard without any effort.

As expected, there were no guards in the chief envoy's office. Big brother Zhao and others turned around and got closer and closer to the side hall.

After they turned around a tall building, they suddenly heard the sound of hurried footsteps in front of them, and hurriedly hid behind a stone screen.The other party obviously spotted them too, but they didn't rush over.

After a while, neither side dared to move. The person opposite seemed to lose his composure, and said in a low voice: "If you are the guards of the Yamen, why don't you come and arrest us?"

Brother Zhao hurriedly whispered: "We are not officers and soldiers. What do you do?"

He hesitated for a moment, and said again: "I came here for the country's thieves, what about you?"

Brother Zhao poked his head out, looking a little excited, "I'm also here to rob the Hong thief!"

Then two people walked out from the opposite side, and the leader said with emotion: "Old thief Hong was captured in front of the army. After parading the street the day before yesterday, he might be executed soon. This thief is mainly a traitor to the captives. Everyone hates to live Eat his meat, we will discuss it, we must not let him die so cheaply!"

"Yes!" Brother Zhao seemed to have finally found the organization, went up to meet those people, and cupped his hands, "Then we will work together!"

"it is good!"

The two cooperated in a team and continued to explore the depths of the chief envoy, but encountered two groups of people along the way, both of whom were going to rob Hong Chengchou to vent his anger.

Brother Zhao muttered in his heart, it seems that even if he didn't have his own guidance, someone else would do it himself.

Outside the side hall, more than a dozen soldiers of the Dragon Guards gathered around a stove, warming wine and chatting, not at all the strict military discipline of usual days.

Not long after, one of them stood up to relieve himself, and as soon as he reached the arch, he bumped into several masked men head-on.

When Brother Zhao and the others saw that they were people in military uniforms, they were so frightened that they froze on the spot, almost kneeling on the ground.

The officer and soldier also frowned, but hurriedly supported Brother Zhao, and said in a displeased tone: "You are the ones that Manager Li hired to repair the toilet?"

Brother Zhao and the others were all taken aback, they looked at each other, and covered their faces with a black cloth, which was somewhat similar to that of a toilet repairer.

"Be quicker with your hands and feet." The officer and soldier turned around and pointed, "Here, it's the toilet next to the hall, go quickly."

Brother Zhao reacted very quickly, and immediately bowed and said, "Hey, yes, yes! I'll go fix it now, little one."

The Dragon Guard soldier waited for them to walk away, he couldn't help but shook his head with a wry smile, "Master Li also said that this is an easy job... I was so nervous that I broke out in a sweat."

Not long after, Brother Zhao and others threw a linen bag over the wall on the south side of the chief envoy, and he followed suit.

Several people beside them wiped the cold sweat from their heads, "Today is really dangerous. If the toilet in this yamen is not broken, I'm afraid I won't be able to escape."

The martyr who just cooperated with Brother Zhao cupped his hands and said, "I don't know how this brother plans to deal with Hong Bandit?"

"The [-] kinds of torture must be exhausted to vent the hatred of all people in the world!"

The man said again in a pleading tone: "I don't know, can I go and observe it?"

"What are you looking at?" Big Brother Zhao waved his hands proudly, "It's time to kill the country's thieves together!"

"Really?! I am very grateful!"

After hearing the news, several other people nearby also expressed their intention to come, Big Brother Zhao naturally agreed, and now it is agreed that tomorrow, he will kill the thieves in the Chengnan Mountain Temple!
the next night.

Brother Zhao did not expect that, just as the martial law was being lifted in Nanjing, and the news spread widely, thousands of people would come to the mountain temple!
When everyone saw Hong Chengchou's face, they couldn't help roaring, "It's this thief who killed my family!"

"The national thief offered me the thirteen prefectures of Ming Dynasty, an unforgivable crime!"

"Don't talk nonsense, kill him!"

"No, it's too cheap to kill him, he will be hacked into pieces!"

"Yes! It was cut..."

Yesterday, the man who "robbed the prison" with Brother Zhao stood up and suggested loudly: "How about this, one of the people present counts as one, and each of you cuts off a piece of the traitor's flesh and takes it back. It is not only to vent your anger, but also to keep it as a souvenir." !"

Everyone responded immediately: "Okay!"

"Let this old thief have thousands of identities, even if he wants to reincarnate, he can't get a whole body!"

"It's my life's wish to give this traitor a knife!"

"Stop rambling, let's do it..."

Another tall fat man came forward, cupped his hands and said, "I have worked in the Ministry of Criminal Justice for a while, so I can teach you how to use a knife so that the traitor dies prematurely."

Hong Chengchou was already trembling with fright, he was still able to talk eloquently in front of Ming officials, but these mud legs in front of him didn't talk nonsense to him at all, they just wanted to torture and kill him.

"No, don't..." He hugged Brother Zhao's leg violently, his body was like a sieve, tears and snot all over his body, "I, I have a million wealth, I will give it to you, I will give it to you... Please, please Give me a good knife... please..."

Brother Zhao kicked him away in disgust, then spat on his face, turned around and said coldly, "Everyone do it!"

The crowd was very orderly, each one was gearing up, as excited as if they wanted to be named on the gold list.

When Hong Chengchou's miserable cry was louder than that, more than a dozen Jin Yiwei who had been watching in the crowd turned and left.Farther away, Li Ying led an infantry battalion but waited until dawn before disbanding.According to Zhu Linming's order, if there were any Jian prisoners who wanted to save Hong Chengchou from before, they would immediately shoot Hong to death.

……

evening.

Yingtianfu government office.

Zhu Linming picked up a pen and wrote a line, then frowned and thought again.The title on the piece of paper in front of him was "Referring to the Ministry of Household Affairs to Move the Capital". The decree to the cabinet had just been written, and there were two big heads behind it, the Ministry of Officials and the inner court.

He doesn't know how expensive he is if he is not in charge of the family. Now that he has won Nanjing and is about to start moving the capital, he realizes that there are so many troublesome things in all aspects, and any lack of thoughtfulness will cause big problems.

Let’s just say that the Ministry of Households needs to raise at least one million taels of silver for the cost of moving the capital and repairing the Forbidden City in the early stage, and I’m afraid that at least that much will have to be added in the later stage.

In addition, how the people of Tianxing Mansion originally arranged, how the grain and rice transported along the way were supplied, how the land near Nanjing was allocated, and so on.

To put it bluntly, although there are many things in the household department, most of them are put on the bright side.But the affairs of the bureaucracy are more and more complicated, and it also involves power transfer, redistribution, etc. Zhu Linmi feels overwhelmed just thinking about it.

In addition, the affairs in the palace are also extremely troublesome. The migration of a large number of eunuchs and court ladies requires a large number of troops, and all the imperial utensils in the palace are even more difficult to move than people.

Fortunately, the Ministry of War is 100% under his control at the moment, and the Dragon Guards and Poluying are in the Nanjing area, so there is not much problem in moving his property, otherwise the move of the capital will exhaust his energy.

I think it took nearly 20 years before the Yongle Dynasty moved the capital to Beijing, and it was completely completed!
