Chapter 98

"Oh, my king, please spare my life, your Majesty, please spare your life..."

Sun Zhixian, who had been stripped of his official robe, was still wearing a middle coat. He knelt on the ground in fear and kept kowtowing to beg for mercy.

Staring at Sun Zhixian with his disheveled head, Zhu Guoqiang thought that in another world, the bastard in front of him would be like this. A few years later, in order to favor the Manchus, Shangshu proposed to expedite the execution of the hair-cutting order issued by the imperial court.

"Your Majesty has pacified China and made everything new. However, the system of clothes, hats, and hair only remains the old Han Dynasty. This is your Majesty's coming from China, not China's coming from your Majesty." Dorgon adopted his suggestion, and in June of the second year of Shunzhi,

, ordered another "hair-shaving order", which stipulated: "All officials and citizens in the country, inside and outside the capital, have a ten-day deadline, and Zhili and all provinces and localities have a ten-day deadline to shave their heads."

"Clothing and binding hair" has become a symbol of the Han people. Shaving their hair seriously hurt the feelings of the Han people, causing them to lose the external symbol of being Han people and the last line of psychological defense against becoming slaves. People started to fight, and there were tragic and fierce anti-shaving campaigns.

The struggle was raging. It is unimaginable to future generations how violent the anti-hair-cutting campaign was and how much blood and tears were shed.

"The people of the Central Plains all want to stand up like a mantis and refuse to fight with frogs. There are swarms everywhere. Millions of living creatures in the south of the Yangtze River are all in the grass and fields. They are all excited by a word. It turns out that their hearts stop at greed for wealth and honor.

Being shameless leads to endless disaster..."

He silently thought about how rich Sun Zhixian had become, but when he thought about the disaster caused by his shamelessness, Zhu Guoqiang's eyes turned cold.

"Come here, since this guy who forgets his ancestors wants to be a traitor, let's help him, shave his hair, leave a money rat tail, and then... kill him!"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please spare my life. This villain will never dare to do it again. He will never dare to do it again..."

Seeing Sun Zhixian kowtow begging for mercy, Zhu Guoqiang said coldly.

"I don't dare anymore... Even though we fell into the trap and became bandits, we still know the justice of heaven and earth. As a former Hanlin, you don't know the etiquette, justice and integrity. You forget your ancestors for the sake of your own selfishness, and you don't hesitate to betray the country for glory. Such a piece of shit will remain.

What's the use of your life!"

Sun Zhixian, whose hair was being cut off with scissors, had completely given up struggling. He kept mumbling with a desperate expression.

"How, how could it be, how could it be like this..."

For Sun Zhixian, I'm afraid he still can't figure out why this happened, why did the Manchurian rebels turn into bandits?

While Sun Zhixian was being shaved like a dead dog, Zhu Guoqiang looked at the kneeling Zhuang Ding on the ground, and then asked.

"Why didn't you want to be traitors just now?"

"Return to the king's words, although we are slaves, we sold ourselves into slavery, but we already have no face to see our ancestors. If we become traitors again and join the Tatars, we are afraid that our ancestors will not recognize us after we die!"

Sun Qiang, who originally thought he would die, replied loudly.

"Okay, I'm afraid I won't recognize you after I die... What's your name?"

"Little, little man Sun Qiang."

"Sun Qiang..."

After pondering and sizing up the man in front of him, Zhu Guoqiang asked.

"Are you willing to go up the mountain with me?"

Going up the mountain together?

Sun Qiang opened his eyes wide and looked at the mountain king in front of him. Is this man going to let him become a mountain bandit?

"Little, little people are good people..."

"Good people..."

Staring at Sun Qiang, Zhu Guoqiang smiled.

"Before we fall into the grass, who is not a good citizen? But what is the crime of my good people, that they have to sell themselves into slaves for food and clothing? What is the crime of my good people, but they have to serve such scum who have changed their manuscripts countless times? What is the crime of my good people, who have no way to make a living?

He has no food and no clothes to keep out the cold, Sun Qiang... tell me, where is the justice in this world? Why can a scum like him be an official and enjoy happiness, while good citizens like us are exploited by corrupt officials in the world?

…”

The successive rhetorical questions made Sun Qiang and all the villagers dumbfounded, but their eyes also became a little fanatical and a little excited. Not to mention them, even the cavalry around Zhu Guoqiang looked at the prince in surprise. The prince

Why do you say such things?

Yes, the Crown Prince is not a corrupt official. The Crown Prince is the Crown Prince. Corrupt officials are corrupt officials. It is they who are ruining the world of the Zhu family. The Crown Prince is doing justice for heaven...

"Sun Qiang, let me ask you whether this heartless traitor should be killed!"

While asking this question, Zhu Guoqiang winked at Ding Pengcheng beside him.

"Deserves to be killed..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Sun Qiang saw a cavalryman rushing over and stabbing the master on the head. He raised the knife and dropped it, blood spurted out like a fountain, and his head rolled to the ground.

The master is dead!

It's because of what I said... It's over, it's over!

Even though he only knew a few simple words, Sun Qiang knew that he was doomed... Although it was just a casual sentence, if the government investigated him, it would be considered colluding with the bandits!

At this moment, Sun Qiang heard the boss say.

"I, Zhu Guoqiang, came down from Mount Tai not for wealth or sex. I just wanted to do justice for heaven and eradicate injustice from the world. How could the people be so unjust as to be such a bad person like Sun Gou? Now that Sun Gou is dead, Sun Gou is dead.

All the land is given to each household. If there is little land, the landless people can take it. From the grain in the warehouse, we will only take ten days of grain, and the rest will be distributed to every household in the village. If you want to follow me

Those who do justice for Heaven will be given to their family members ten taels of silver and two stones of grain, and they themselves will follow so and so."

"Master, what should I do with the Sun family?"

"Kill! Leave no one behind!"

Staring at the villagers kneeling on the ground, Zhu Guoqiang said coldly.

"Before you receive the food, you must submit a certificate of surrender to show that you are at odds with the thieves. Come on, bring the Sun family over..."

Submit your certificate!

You have to go through all the drama, and since you are a bandit, you can't be merciful. Besides, how can there be any good people in the Sun family? Even the blood of the nine clans of the Sun family can make up for the sins committed by the person named Sun.

Zhu Guoqiang didn't know how many people in Zhuangding would turn to him. But looking at the corpses on the ground and listening to the cries, Zhu Guoqiang unexpectedly found that he didn't feel any discomfort at all. It seemed that he had adapted to the rules of this era.

.

While pulling the reins to turn the horse around, Zhu Guoqiang saw that Sun Qiang had picked up a knife from the ground and walked towards the crying Sun family.

When the screams came from behind, Zhu Guoqiang couldn't help but tightened his grip on the horse's reins, but he still didn't say anything after all. He looked at the burning houses in the village. Because it was intentional, the ones that were burned were often unoccupied.

The side house.

Murder and arson...

Isn't this what bandits are supposed to do?

No, now I am also a bandit, a rogue bandit...

Thinking of this, Zhu Guoqiang couldn't help but laugh at himself in his heart.

"You're a good prince, you don't want to be a bandit, but you choose to be a bandit. It's really bad..."
