Chapter 101 The Emperor is still smart!

When the rebel leader said that if anyone attacked the military formation again, he would be punished with treason. The people of Zhaocun Township finally remembered that no matter how polite the polite military masters in front of them were, they were still a treason after all.

army.

After thinking about this, the people of Zhaocun Township couldn't help but feel a little scared.

What kind of mistakes did you make before that made you want to attack the army with sticks and hoes?

The account books subsequently copied from the homes of Mr. Zhao and other squire masters also completely proved that Mr. Zhao was not a good person at all, but a bad wolf in sheep's clothing.

Torture? No need, because there was no need for Meng Lianggu's army to take action. The common people who felt that their feelings had been deceived sent all the families of the gentry and gentry including Yuan Zhao on the road.

How much I trusted Zhao Yuanwai at the beginning, now I feel so deeply cheated.

And with a case like Cunxiang in front of us, the next thing will naturally be much easier to handle.

If those rural sages and gentry rely on rural bravery to fight against Meng Lianggu's rebel army, then Meng Lianggu's army will directly crush them.

If those rural sages and gentry coerce the people to resist Meng Lianggu's army, then Meng Lianggu's army will separate and surround the people and the rural warriors in the hands of the virtuous gentry. First, they will invite the people to watch a big show, and then find a few

People from nearby villages came forward to speak out, and then naturally there would be a public trial of the sages and gentry.

As a result, the speed of Meng Lianggu's army advancing towards Guide Mansion naturally increased greatly.

…

Zhao Ji, the prefect of Guide Prefecture, felt that he must have encountered something unclean or been poisoned by someone. Otherwise, why would he want to spend one hundred thousand taels of silver to buy a prefect?

Now it's better, the official position under my butt is still warm, and the one hundred thousand taels spent have not been recovered yet. This man named Zhu led his troops to fight.

If this was just the case, then Magistrate Zhao could hold his nose and admit it. After all, he chose the Magistrate of Guide Prefecture himself. Who asked him to be cheap and to be far away from the emperor when buying an official position?

But our Emperor Zhu Zhongtao of the Ming Dynasty is really too damn incompetent. As the prefect, he has submitted memorials to the Henan Prefecture asking for help over and over again, but the memorials sent to Henan Prefecture for help have fallen into the sea like mud. Until now, there is not even a trace of reinforcements.

At this time, as a prefect, I can only sit in sleepy city.

It’s not like Magistrate Zhao has never thought about running away with a bucket, but he spent a hundred thousand dollars to buy an official position, and so far he has only gotten back less than thirty thousand. If he ran away like this, he would have to lose seven hundred thousand dollars.

Ten thousand taels of silver?

Seventy thousand taels of silver. Magistrate Zhao's heart began to hurt when he thought of seventy thousand taels of silver.

But don't run away, Magistrate Zhao is afraid.

Especially when he thought that Zhu Ni's army had captured Ningling and Yucheng and was marching towards Shangqiu at this moment, Magistrate Zhao was extremely frightened.

More than 130 squires were exterminated in Ningling, and more than 150 squires were exterminated in Yucheng. The magistrate of Ningling County was killed, and the magistrate of Yucheng County was killed. The reason was just the squires of Ningling and Yucheng.

The gentry occupied a few more acres of land, and the magistrates of Ningling and Yucheng collected more taxes for several years.

His mother-in-law, the magistrates of Ningling and Yucheng were sold by me, the magistrate, and part of the taxes they overcharged in the past few years were given to this magistrate. If Zhu Ni was sent to Shangqiu,

Come on, can this magistrate still have a good son?

After walking back and forth in the prefect's yamen for a long time, Magistrate Zhao simply sent someone to call Zhao Zi, the magistrate of Shangqiu County, to the prefect's yamen.

Zhao Zi, the magistrate of Shangqiu County, was personally recommended by Magistrate Zhao, and a penny of silver was confiscated because Zhao Zi was the biological son of Magistrate Zhao Ji and Zhao Ji.

After arriving at the magistrate's office, Zhao Zi asked directly: "Dad, what should we do now? Zhu Ni's rebels are almost at Shangqiu. If we don't leave, there will be no chance."

Magistrate Zhao was circling back and forth, with a look of pain on his face: "Dad also wants to leave, but our family has spent one hundred thousand taels of silver for the position of prefect, and now we have just got back 30,000 taels, and the 70,000 taels

two……"

Zhao Zi was a little dissatisfied: "Dad, why are you so greedy? Which is more important, life or money? Let me tell you, I have already asked people to pack my luggage. If the court doesn't send reinforcements, I will run away first.

"

When Zhao Zi said this, Magistrate Zhao was immediately dissatisfied: "You just run away first? What will dad do?"

Zhao Zi rolled his eyes and said: "Either you run with me or you don't run, what else can you do? Think about it, Dad, if your only son dies with you, what will happen to us?"

Isn’t it true that the Zhao family will be extinct?”

Zhao Ji, Magistrate Zhao, thought that this was indeed the case. He only had such a son. No matter how much money he made, wouldn't it all be his in the end? If he were to die with him in Shangqiu, then he would still have the face.

Go see your ancestors?

Thinking of this, Magistrate Zhao Ji simply gritted his teeth and stamped his feet, saying: "Well, my father will send someone to inform the sages and gentry who are traveling in Shangqiu City and ask them to use their money to fight against the bandits.

"

"As soon as you get the money, leave as soon as possible and find a place where no one knows you and hide your name. When Zhu Ni is wiped out, or when the world is at peace, you can come out again."

Zhao Wei first agreed, then asked: "Then I leave, what will you do, dad?"

Magistrate Zhao Ji said: "If there are really no reinforcements, my father will leave naturally. We, father and son, will take half of the money and leave separately. Even if one of us is unlucky, we can at least keep the other one. For safety reasons, father will go."

If I don’t tell you where, don’t tell dad where you are going.”

Having said this, Magistrate Zhao Ji looked in the direction of Henan Mansion again and sighed: "I don't know what our Majesty is thinking about? Do we have to wait until Henan is completely returned to Zhu Ni?"

In fact, Governor Zhao Ji really wronged Zhu Zhongtao, the self-appointed seventeenth emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

It was not that Zhu Zhongtao, the self-appointed seventeenth emperor of the Ming Dynasty, had not received the request for help from the prefect Zhao Ji, nor that he did not want to send troops to ask for help in Shangqiu, but Zhu Zhongtao had no troops under Emperor Zhu who dared to go.

There are people who do the business of beheading, but there are absolutely no people who do the business of sending someone to death in vain.

For the "generals" of the Five Army Governor's Mansion under Emperor Zhu Zhongtao, why did they follow Zhu Zhongtao in rebellion? Is it to get promoted and make a fortune?

Now that Zhu Zhongtao has become the emperor, everyone has to be high-ranking officials, ride horses, and have beautiful concubines in his arms. Instead of staying in Henan Mansion and enjoying the glory and wealth he sacrificed his life for, he has to lead troops to Shangqiu.

Fighting with another rebel named Zhu?

Don’t go, even those who can’t be beaten to death will not go. After all, the rebel surnamed Zhu is different from the old brother Zhu Zhongtao. The old brother Zhu Zhongtao just got a big deal, but the one surnamed Zhu is a real sword and a real gun.

It was a fight with the Tatar officers and soldiers, so let the losers under you, who are good at bullying the common people, go and beat the guy named Zhu?

Who is stupid!

Therefore, as long as Zhu Zhongtao brought out the letter asking for help from the prefect Zhao Ji and Zhao, the generals under Zhu Zhongtao would all shake their heads and pretend to be stupid, pretending that they did not understand what Zhu Zhongtao was talking about.

And Zhu Zhongtao had nothing to do with these old brothers. After all, these old brothers were the basis for his ability to secure the throne. If these old brothers did not support him, wouldn't Zhu Zhongtao, the emperor, be in trouble?

Therefore, Zhu Zhongtao could only send people to deliver messages to the officials in various places, hoping that some officials would "help Zhao Ji and the prefect Zhao for the sake of the Ming Dynasty."

Then the letters Zhu Zhongtao sent out were just like the letters asking for help sent by the prefect Zhao Ji to the "Ming Dynasty Court", and the final result was that they were thrown into the sea.

In desperation, Zhu Zhongtao, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, could only think of spreading the word to the world and see if he could call on the people of the world to join forces to attack Zhu Jinsong, a traitor and traitor who disobeyed the imperial court.

Zhu Zhongtao has already thought about it. As long as he can kill Zhu Jinsong, a rebellious minister and traitor, then he, the emperor, will definitely not hesitate to reward him with a title. Even if he breaks the soil and seals the grass, it is not beyond negotiation.

Then, before Zhu Zhongtao could figure out how to write this message, he saw a messenger first.

"What Mr. He means is that you cannot defeat Zhu Ni on your own, but if you can unite with Zhu Zhongji of Jiangsu and send troops together, there is still a little hope."

"That's all, let's take our leave."

Zhu Zhongtao was a little confused.

What does it mean?

He Shen specially sent someone to deliver a message to me, telling me how to deal with the rebel leader Zhu Jinsong?

Damn it, was I too tired last night? Or did I drink too much?

Or, is this world too crazy?

Seeing Heshen and the messenger sent by Zhongtang turning to leave, Zhu Zhongtao didn't have time to think too much. He pointed at the messenger and shouted: "Come here, capture him for me!"

The messenger didn't take it seriously. Even though he was tied tightly, he still sneered at Zhu Zhongtao and said: "Why, I came to give you advice on the order of He Zhongtang, and this is how you repay He Zhongtang? But it doesn't matter.

, anyway, you idiots are always like this, repaying kindness with hatred, killing or beheading, just do as you please."

Zhu Zhongtao was immediately furious, pointed at the messenger and shouted: "Fuck your mother's bitch! When it comes to the four words "repay kindness with hatred," I'm afraid there is no one in the world who knows how to repay kindness with hatred than you slave slaves, right?

"Besides, what does the family matter between me and Zhu Jinsong have to do with you Tatars? Damn it, Baba came here to give me some advice. I think you guys have nothing to hold back!"

After scolding him, Zhu Zhongtao did not give the Jiannu messenger a chance to talk back. He immediately waved his hand and ordered: "Drag him out, chop him up and feed him to the dogs!"

After the slave-building messenger was dragged out, Zhu Zhongtao turned his attention to the old brothers under his command: "Anyway, the current situation is like this. You don't need me to tell you, you all know it in your heart."

"Don't worry about whether the Jiannu messenger should die or not, but there is one thing he said that was wrong, that is, our family alone cannot defeat Zhu Jinsong, the traitor and traitor. Therefore, the best way is to send someone to contact Zhu Jinsong in Jiangsu.

Zhongji, persuade him to send troops together to attack Zhu Ni."

"In addition, I plan to spread the word to the world and call on the people of the world to join forces to attack Zhu Jinsong, a rebellious minister and traitor who does not obey the imperial court. As long as I can kill Zhu Jinsong, a rebellious minister and traitor, I will not hesitate to reward him with a title!"

The old brothers under Zhu Zhongtao nodded.

If Zhu Zhongji can send troops together to attack Zhu Jinsong, then Zhu Jinsong will be attacked by Henan and Jiangsu directions. If that doesn't work, others will be invited to join forces.

No matter how capable Zhu Jinsong's army is, can they still defeat so many people in the world?

Tsk tsk, the emperor is still smart!

However, before Zhu Zhongtao and his old brothers could send someone to contact Zhu Zhongji, a red-feathered messenger hurried into the palace and paid homage: "Your Majesty, Zhao Ji, the prefect of Guide Prefecture,

He and Zhao Zi, the magistrate of Shangqiu County, took the seal and fled!"

Before Zhu Zhongtao could react, he heard an old brother under him chuckle and say: "Look, at the beginning I said that Zhao Ji and Zhao Xi were not good enough, and the emperor had to talk about different people with the same name, but now it's okay

, they all ran away, hahahaha!”
