Four hundred and ninetieth chapters admit mistake
The eight major Shanxi merchants who had been rampant in Wucheng and Shanxi for hundreds of years were destroyed by the Jinyiwei. Among them, the eight major Shanxi merchants were wiped out by the border troops led by Wang Xun in their hometown in Shanxi. During this period, they did encounter strong resistance, but were eventually defeated by
The border army used thunder to destroy it, and the wealth of the eight Shanxi merchants in their hometowns was filled into the national treasury. In addition, they discovered many secret weapon workshops, which provided a large number of weapons and armor for the Tatars every year.
The Datong soldiers under Wang Xun were also border troops, and they had to fight against the Tatar cavalry that went south almost every few years. As long as a war broke out, they would naturally be exempted from death. In addition, the Ming Dynasty was in a military household system, so these Datong soldiers were
In the middle, almost everyone had uncles and brothers who died at the hands of the Tatars. As a result, they now knew that the weapons in the hands of the Tatars were actually provided by these Shanxi merchants. They all had their eyes red and stopped killing people.
Unable to stop, although Wang Xun finally found a lot of money, most of the tribesmen of the eight major Shanxi merchants died, which could be considered their retribution.
The heads of the eight major Jin merchant families living in Wucheng were also unable to escape. Qian Ning took advantage of their opportunity to discuss matters and blocked all eight people in the back garden of Fan Yongdou's mansion in one fell swoop, but none of them escaped.
At the beginning, Fan Yongdou was very tough. Even when facing the Jinyiwei, who was famous for his arrogant attitude, he still dared to stand up and argue with the other party. After all, this is Wucheng, not the capital. The top and bottom of Wucheng had long been bribed by them.
, So let alone the Jinyiwei, even the biggest strong dragon, they have to keep it on board when they arrive in Wucheng.
But Fan Yongdou miscalculated this time. Those who came to Wucheng were all fake dragons, but those who came to Wucheng this time were Zhengde, the real dragon. And for safety reasons, Zhengde also brought thousands of troops. And a few days ago, Wu
The city garrison Zhang Zhen had already received an order to inspect outside the city. This was a very normal order for the border to be transferred, and it did not arouse others' suspicion, so Zhang Zhen took away most of the troops in the city, and Jiang Bin was already there
The Wucheng was waiting for Zhang Zhen dozens of miles away. As long as the other party fell into the siege, they would be disarmed immediately. As for the remaining troops in the Wucheng, they were not enough to worry about it.
Of course, the guard Zhang Zhen was led away just in case. After all, although the eight major Shanxi merchants bribed the civil officials in Wucheng, those officials did not necessarily have the courage to rebel, but for the sake of the safety of the righteous and the ability to
He captured all the eight major Shanxi merchants in one go, so he transferred Zhang Zhen's troops out of the city.
Without Zhang Zhen as the backing, Fan Yongdou and the others were just a few ordinary businessmen. At most, they had some thugs and guards at home. No matter how powerful the thugs were, they could not be compared with the army, or even
The Jinyiwei was better than them, so when Qian Ning rushed into the Fan Mansion with the Jinyiwei, he did not encounter any decent resistance at all.
Zhengde had already said that he would see the legendary Eight Jin merchants with his own eyes, so after Qian Ning seized Fan Yongdou, he immediately tied them all tightly, and then personally sent them to the not far away.
As for the remaining house search, there are naturally others responsible for the house search. Although the house search is a job, Qian Ning disdained it in order to show his performance in front of Zhengde. He is now trying to stay in Zhengde every moment.
Around me.
"Why do you arrest me? Don't just use your Jinyiwei to arrest people randomly. Let me tell you, our Shanxi merchants are not easy to mess with!" As soon as we entered the private room where Zhengde was, Fan Yongdou immediately shouted loudly, just now
When he was arrested, Qian Ning did not indicate his identity or the reason for arresting them. So until now, Fan Yongdou didn't know where the Jinyiwei came from? He didn't even know that his hometown had been raided by Wang Xun and his army.
.
"Oh, I want to know, where is it hard for you Shanxi merchants to mess with?" Zhengde immediately stopped Qian Ning and others from saluting him to avoid revealing his identity, and then spoke with a smile.
Asked, since he came to Xuanfu, he had granted himself the position of general. He always called himself "the general" in front of outsiders.
"General?" Fan Yongdou was stunned when he heard Zhengde's claim. Although the Jinyiwei was also considered the army of the Ming Dynasty, they were the emperor's personal army, independent of the civil and military factions. However, the young general in front of him could order them to be arrested.
Jinyiwei, this is too strange.
Fan Yongdou was able to sit in the position of the head of the Fan family because he was smart. From a small name of Zhengde, he had already discovered that the young man in front of him had an extraordinary identity, so he was not anxious about Zhengde's question.
Then he answered, but looked at the young man in front of him carefully, hoping to infer the other party's identity from some details. As long as he knew the other party's identity, it would be easier to convince the other party to let him go.
However, Fan Yongdou didn't say anything, and the Wang Dayu next to him couldn't hold back. After all, he was the youngest among the eight people, and he was spoiled since childhood. No one dared to tie him up like this. It can be said that today is after he was born.
On the most miserable day, I had already felt anger in my heart, so when I heard that Zhengde was a military general, I immediately cursed without hesitation: "I'm blind to you, and I don't look at who we are. I'll tell you
Even the General of Xuanfu, he had to be polite when he saw us. You dare to arrest us. Be careful..."
Wang Dayu was also angry and had lost his usual calmness. However, before he could curse the more unpleasant words, Qian Ning next to him rushed forward and slapped Wang Dayu in the face. As a result, he slapped him.
He spitted blood in his mouth, and the two big teeth on his left were also slapped by the slap. He fell to the ground all of a sudden, his face covered in blood.
"Hahaha~, this is the first time that I am so old that someone dares to scold me like you, but whether you scold me or not today, you are already dead, and it is the punishment of Lingchi. From today on,
You will be strictly guarded and you will never have a chance to commit suicide!" Zhengde did not have any annoyed expression when he heard Wang Dayu scolding him, but instead laughed. After all, in his opinion, he didn't need to have a child.
The anger of a dying person.
"Ling... Lingchi! You... Who are you?" Wang Dengku also saw that the young general in front of him had an extraordinary identity. He could not only command the Jinyiwei, but also determine their crimes. Such a person was the entire Ming Dynasty.
Not often.
Before Zhengde could see the person talking clearly, the old man standing at the back suddenly snatched out and shouted loudly to Qian Ning beside him: "Master Qian, the young man has abandoned the darkness and turned to the light in advance, and he also cooperated with the master to fight Fan Yong.
When someone is arrested, I hope the adults will be kind and let the villain's family live!"
This old man is Huang Yongfa, the last among the eight major Shanxi merchants. Although he is ranked last among the eight major Shanxi merchants, he is the smartest person and the most informative. When Qian Ning took the Jinyiwei secretly to deal with them.
Huang Yongfa had already noticed it, and he knew very clearly that if the court wanted to deal with them, they would definitely not have a good ending, so Huang Yongfa decisively surrendered to the court and was willing to make meritorious contributions. In addition, he was also concerned about money.
Ning bribed a large amount of wealth and got the promise of the other party to save their entire family's lives. However, now he heard that Zhengde was going to execute them lingchi, so Huang Yongfa suddenly jumped out and took the initiative to reveal his identity.
"Oh? You are one of the eight major Shanxi merchants who immediately surrendered to the court when they see the situation is not good?" Zhengde looked at the old man who jumped out carefully and asked with great interest. However, Fan Yongdou, who was behind Huang Yongfa, was behind him.
However, everyone stared wide and looked in disbelief. After all, they never expected that Huang Yongfa would betray the entire Shanshang Group.
Huang Yongfa naturally knew that Zhengde's identity was not simple. The entire Ming Dynasty was able to command Qian Ning, the young man who commanded the Jinyiwei, had only three. The first one was naturally His Majesty the Emperor, and the second one was His Majesty the Emperor.
The third brother, King Zhao, is Jiang Bin, who is deeply favored by His Majesty. However, Huang Yongfa speculated from the fact that Zhengde called himself a general, that the person in front of him should be Jiang Bin. After all, Jiang Bin had already accompanied His Majesty the Emperor some time ago.
When I arrived at Xuanfu, the time was just right.
"You reported to General Jiang, the villain is named Huang Yongfa. It is because the villain is unwilling to fight with Fan Yong again and do things that are harmful to the world. Therefore, he abandoned the darkness and turned to the light and helped the court to arrest all these people, just asking the general to let our family go.
"Young young!" Huang Yongfa said in the end, his face was full of pleading. No matter how glorious the Shanxi merchants were in the past, they could only die when facing the huge imperial court, let alone with what they had done before.
What you do is to just secretly invest in an enemy, which is enough to confiscate the family and destroy the clan.
"Huh? What did you call me?" Zhengde was very interesting when he heard Huang Yongfa call him General Jiang, so he immediately asked.
However, before Huang Yongfa could answer, Fan Yongdou next to him finally reacted. He was so angry that his whole body was trembling. He wanted to rush over but was pressed by the Jinyiwei next to him. Finally, he could only curse at Huang Yongfa: "Huang Yongfa, you eat it."
I even invited you to discuss things when I had known this, I would have been the first to destroy your Huang family!”
"Clog his dog's mouth!" Zhengde was mistakenly recognized by Huang Yongfa as Jiang Bin. He felt very interesting. Now he was interrupted by Fan Yongdou, so he was very dissatisfied, so he pointed at him and ordered the Jinyiwei next to him, and as a result, this
The next time, Qian Ning took the initiative, and slapped it twice, and then tore off the rag from the other party's identity to block Fan Yongdou's mouth. Now the others dared not say anything, but just kept using hatred eyes.
