Ming Dynasty: Tanks blocked the door and you said to me, "Long live Ming Dynasty"

"Let go!"

The Jinyiwei simply raised his hand and slapped him.

There were a bunch of corpses of the Imperial Guards lying in the prefectural government office. No matter how beautiful this concubine was, she could not shake him at all.

What's more, the person sitting in the yamen is not the prefect, but the current emperor!

Huang Yuanqiu and his group of more than ten people were dragged into the yamen and thrown heavily into the lobby.

"Your Majesty, the heads of the six families in Zhangzhou, Huang, Liu, Kong, Fan, Wu, and Zhou, have all been brought here!"

Hearing Jinyiwei's words, Huang Yuanqiu, Kong Wenxiang and others were all struck by lightning.

He stared blankly at Zhu Youxiao who was hanging high under the mirror.

emperor? !

This is impossible!

Why would the emperor come to Zhangzhou!

But their reactions made Zhen Beiwang unhappy.

He let go of those who were lying on the ground, and ignored those who knelt down wisely.

He picked up the killing stick as thick as his arm, aimed it at the bend of Fan Shiwen's legs and hit him hard.

"Give me a sigh!"

"Snapped!"

The killing stick hit him hard, and Fan Shiwen immediately knelt on the ground, with his knees hitting the bluestone slabs. Instantly, the sound of bones breaking was heard.

"what......."

He subconsciously hugged his legs and rolled wildly on the ground.

Zhen Beiwang did not stop, and swung the stick again, hitting Kong Wenxiang.

Zhu Youxiao, who was in the hall, just watched quietly, without any intention of stopping it.

However, when the stick was about to hit him, Kong Wenxiang knelt down at lightning speed and kowtowed.

The rule that one cannot kneel when having made great achievements was thrown out of his mind at this moment.

Wu Xin was standing side by side with him, and his movements were a little slow, so the killing stick hit him directly on the back.

With a crisp sound, Wu Xin fell to the ground and fainted without even being able to scream.

It was only then that Zhu Youxiao looked at them with cold eyes and spoke.

"The head of the Zhou family is also here?"

"Who is it? Come out and let me see!"

Before the head of the Zhou family could respond, Kong Wenxiang, who was kneeling there, pointed him out.

"Your Majesty, it's him, he is Zhou Shuang, the head of the Zhou family!"

Zhou Shuang was stunned.

Huang Yuanqiu and others were also stunned!

Unexpectedly, the person from the Kong family would be the first to back down!

Seeing that Zhu Youxiao's eyes were fixed on him, Zhou Shuang finally reacted.

"I, Zhou Shuang, kowtow to Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty, I am innocent. I have never done the things you mentioned!"

"fart!"

At this moment, a figure rushed in from outside the hall. It was Li Chaoqin, whose wounds were treated by the female doctors!

As soon as he finished speaking, he kicked Zhou Shuang to the ground, leaned forward, pressed one knee against Zhou Shuang's chest, and pinned him to the ground.

Zhu Youxiao frowned and looked at Youtong.

"Throw him out for me!"

"Yes!"

Youtong bowed, rushed over, grabbed Li Chaoqin by the collar and said.

"Captain Li, don't let us use force!"

Li Chaoqin was stunned: "What's wrong?"

Seeing that this guy was answering irrelevant questions again, Youtong picked him up and walked out of the hall.

Eunuchs, after having their eggs removed, will become effeminate, but since their kidney energy has nowhere to vent, their physique will become stronger than that of ordinary people!

Li Chaoqin was actually picked up by him like a chick!

He didn't dare to resist because he knew that this must be the emperor's order.

After he was thrown out, Zhu Youxiao looked at Zhou Shuang again.

"Since you won't tell me, I won't bother asking anymore!"

"Someone, drag him out and keep him company with Xu Xinsu!"

"Maybe he'll remember something."

There is actually no need to re-examine these people for what they have done. It would not be unfair to just kill them.

But Zhu Youxiao wanted to know how the relief grain got into their hands!

Two Jinyiwei came forward, one on the left and one on the right, and carried Zhou Shuang out.

As soon as he went down the first step in the lobby, Zhou Shuang became scared.

"No! I said! I said!"

"speak!"

Zhu Youxiao's voice came from the hall.

The two Jinyiwei stopped and released their hold on Zhou Shuang.

"Yes, yes, it was Wen Yuanqiu who instructed me to do this!"

"Attacking the Imperial Guards, burning the granary, ambushing the prefect, bribing Xu Xinsu, etc., all these were done by Wen Yuanqiu!"

"I am guilty, and I only ask for a quick death!"

Chapter 132: Slandering the bloodline of the saint, no scholar in the world will let you go!

Zhou Shuang's words made Wen Yuanqiu's face change drastically.

"Your Majesty, he is slandering me!"

"I have always been a law-abiding citizen..."

"Abiding by the law? Then read to me what is written in this letter!"

Wen Yuanqiu tried to argue, but Zhu Youxiao took out a letter from his arms and threw it at him.

That letter was one of the letters found on Xu Xinsu’s ship!

When Wen Yuanqiu saw the ink stain on the corner of the envelope, he felt as if his spine had been pulled out. His whole body collapsed to the ground, and he muttered with lifeless eyes.

"No, no, I was forced!"

"None of this was my intention!"

"It's Kong........."

Kong Wenxiang on the side interrupted him immediately and yelled at him.

"Shut up, Wen Yuanqiu, it's come to this, you still want to cling to my Kong family!"

Zhu Youxiao stared at him and sneered.

"What's the hurry, Master Kong?"

"The real can not be fake, the fake can not be real!"

"Without any evidence, can he really drag you down?"

Upon hearing this, Kong Wenxiang knelt forward, squeezed out two lines of tears, and choked with sorrow.

"Your Majesty, please understand that colluding with pirates and attacking the Royal Guards is an act of rebellion. Once it is carried out, it will be a heinous crime that will execute all nine generations of your clan!"

"He is not trying to drag his students down with him, he is trying to drag down the entire Kong family. He is trying to throw dirty water on the Saint, Your Majesty!"

"I beg Your Majesty to look into this matter!"

Zhu Youxiao shook his head with a look of sarcasm on his face.

"the Kongs?"

"Ah!"

"There are at least dozens of branch family heads like you in the entire Ming Dynasty, if not a hundred! Do you really think you can represent the Kong family?"

After he finished speaking, he turned around and looked at Wen Yuanqiu.

"Keep talking!"

Wen Yuanqiu immediately told everything he knew.

"His Majesty!"

"My ancestors were originally from Changxing, Zhejiang, and moved here during the Wanli period, several decades later than the Kong family moved here."

"Ever since Wen Tiren entered the cabinet, Kong Wenxiang and Wu Xin came to our house together and asked me to pretend to be Wen Tiren's relative in order to gain benefits."

"The Wen family is just an honest grain merchant. How dare they pretend to be the relatives of the elder? But Kong Wenxiang tempted me with fame and fortune, saying that if I do as I say, I can make my son a scholar in the next provincial examination. If I don't, I will destroy the Wen family!"

"I had no choice but to obey them. It was from then on that the Wen family was pushed to the front by them!"

"Everything the Wen family did was what they asked them to do, and everything the Wen family wanted to say was what they said through the Wen family's mouth!"

"Even the fight between the Zhou family and the Jinyiwei, the ambush of the prefect, the strike, and the collusion with pirates were all instigated by Kong Wenxiang!"

"Your Majesty, please understand that I am guilty and deserve death!"

"My wives and concubines have also enjoyed all the wealth and honor with me, so it is only right that they should be brought to justice."

"I only ask Your Majesty to show mercy and spare my underage child, so that the Wen family can have a bloodline!"

After saying this, Wen Yuanqiu laid on the ground with his head down, crying inconsolably.

Kong Wenxiang really wanted to interrupt, but Zhen Beiwang was standing next to him, pointing at him with the Xiuchun Knife, as if he would put the tip of the knife into his mouth if he dared to open his mouth.

The Fujian Governor Zhu Yifeng, the Provincial Surveillance Commissioner Guo Tingxun, the Zhenhai Guard Captain Miao Buwu and others who were standing nearby did not expect things to turn out like this. They all looked at Kong Wenxiang in shock.

Only Wu Guoshi!

His expression became extremely unnatural, and he occasionally glanced at Wu Xin with gritted teeth, but his actions were extremely careful and were not noticed by others.

As soon as Wen Yuanqiu finished speaking, Kong Wenxiang started roaring like a madman.

"No! This isn't true!"

"Wen Yuanqiu, you are dreaming. You have committed a crime that will punish your entire clan. Not to mention your son, even your parents' graves will be turned into ashes!"

"If you slander the bloodline of the saint, all the scholars in the world will not let you go!"

"Wen, you will be cursed for a thousand years!"

"Your Majesty, please understand. I am innocent. I am innocent!"

Zhu Youxiao ignored him and continued to look at Wen Yuanqiu.

"I want to ask you! Is the grain sold by your Wen Kong Liu Zhou family grain store the disaster relief grain allocated by the court?"

Wen Yuanqiu shook his head and said, "I'm not sure!"

"But just two months ago, Kong Wenxiang found me and told me that Tomen Road had obtained a batch of grain, totaling 160,000 shi!"

"This year, Fujian suffered a severe drought, with Yanping Prefecture being the worst hit, followed by Tingzhou and Zhangzhou. The relief grain sent by the imperial court has yet to arrive, and I heard that grain prices in other prefectures are rising day by day."

"At that time, Kong Wenxiang said that the four grain merchants in Zhangzhou should advance and retreat together and take this opportunity to make money together, so they should take out this batch of grain and sell it together."
