25, Zhu Ciyan wanted to loot, Emperor Chongzhen hesitated
Looking at Zhou Kui who fainted, Zhu Cixuan shrugged and said to the many Zhou family guards who were taken to the side: "You have also seen that he was fainting and had no money to do with me. Okay, you should hurry up and take the father-in-law back to find a doctor for good treatment, otherwise something will happen if it is too late."
Seeing this scene, the guards of the Zhou family didn't dare to let go, and they carried Zhou Kui in shame and were about to leave.
After walking a few steps, Zhu Cilang suddenly said: "Stop!"
All the guards of the Zhou family stood up straight in an instant and almost left Zhou Kui.
Zhu Cilang smiled and said, "Fang Gongdang, go order a thousand taels of silver and give it to them to take it away so that others will hear it. He also said that our palace is not keeping its word."
Didn’t Zhou Kui’s previous letter of commitment say that more than 1,000 taels of cash or treasures were all handed over to the state treasury, and Zhu Cilang is a very trustworthy person!
Seeing the guards of the Zhou family carrying one thousand taels of silver and carrying Zhou Kui away, and then to see the Dongchang men keep carrying out large boxes filled with treasures, Zhu Cilang is also full of spring breeze.
This feeling of taking other people's money is really great.
To be honest, this approach is actually a bit unethical, but... I'm going to end the Ming Dynasty in my palace. I still care about you so much at this time? Let's survive first.
If you know how to pay money, the palace will naturally have more benefits in the future. If you don’t know what you know about Zhou, you can only use it as a chicken to kill the monkeys who are not alert yet.
At this moment, a noisy sound suddenly came from afar.
Zhu Cilang was stunned for a moment, then woke up: "This is the rebel army siege again."
When he thought of this, Zhu Cilang's good mood just now suddenly dissipated a lot.
Although the British Duke and others were in charge, the British Duke was not the kind of famous general. No matter how loyal he was, he could only support him for a few more days.
If you want to save yourself, you have to mobilize the people in Beijing and recruit more soldiers to form a larger army.
In that case, it is absolutely impossible to have no money.
You still have to make money quickly!
At this moment, the system's voice sounded: "Congratulations to the host for successfully obtaining 470,000 taels of cash from Zhou Kui's family. Now, a total of 710,000 taels of silver have been seized. Please continue to work hard, and there are 35 hours left."
When Zhu Cixuan heard this, he said, "What a guy, this system is only counted as cash?" It seems that this task is a bit difficult.
Zhu Cilang's eyes turned and said to Fang Gonggan: "Watch here, all the property must be brought back to the palace as quickly as possible. Then get me a box of the most decent treasures. I will go back to the palace to meet my father and mother now."
Time is endless.
Half an hour later, Zhu Cixuan returned to the palace and met Chongzhen and Empress Zhou.
Queen Zhou hurriedly asked, "Have you got the money?"
Zhu Cilang nodded with a smile.
Chongzhen said: "Is Zhou Guozhu okay?"
Zhu Cilang looked stern and said seriously to Chongzhen: "Father, my son is not the kind of person who fights and kills."
Chongzhen: "..."
Co-written by Du Xun and Liu Zongmin committed suicide?
Zhu Cilang ignored Chongzhen and waved his hand directly: "Come on, carry the box up!"
Zhu Cixuan opened the box himself, and in an instant, a golden light shone out from it.
Chongzhen was shocked and stood up directly. He didn't see the Emperor of Ming Dynasty doing anything, but he saw him appear next to the treasure chest in an instant.
"This, this is..." Looking at the dazzling array of treasures in the box, Chongzhen's words were a little knotted.
Zhu Cilang looked at Chongzhen's excited appearance and felt a little sympathetic.
Other people's emperors were drunk and dreaming of delicacies. Chongzhen was so good that he was diligent in political affairs every day, and finally lost the country of Ming Dynasty.
The emperor's water is very deep, you can't control it!
Queen Zhou also came over, looked at the treasures in the box, and said in surprise: "Does these all come from my father..."
Zhu Cilang nodded and said slowly: "Mother, there are at least hundreds of boxes like this in the warehouse of the father-in-law."
Chongzhen, Empress Zhou: "!!!"
Chongzhen's tone trembled as he spoke: "So much?"
Zhu Cilang smiled and said, "Is it so much? I'll tell my father that the father-in-law has the opportunity to make money since you ascended the throne. For example, some aristocratic families in the capital, the jewelry in the warehouse is probably several times more than that in the father-in-law!"
Zhu Cilang is not talking nonsense about this, but has a treasure map provided by the system in his mind.
Chongzhen was silent.
At this moment, Chongzhen felt a little cold, his heart was so cold.
I originally thought that the Ming Dynasty treasury was out of money, and the officials should have no money.
But he never expected that many officials at the bottom were indeed very poor, but those real top ministers still had such huge wealth!
Queen Zhou also had a change in her face. After a long time, she sighed: "I didn't expect that Zhou would actually plunder the people's money in secret. Your Majesty, please punish Zhou for his crime!"
It took a lot of courage to say this for Empress Zhou.
After all, that's her mother's home!
Zhu Cilang waved his hand and said, "Mother, it's not the time to talk about this. Zhou's money has now been included in the treasury, even if they have made atonement for their sins."
Zhu Cixuan also has an idea to say this.
You can take money, but it is a bit too much to punish even if you take money. Isn’t this forcing others to rebel?
You know, there are Li Zicheng's army outside the city.
Zhu Cilang said to Chongzhen again: "Father, the most important thing at the moment is to pay all the money first, and whether you pay off the arrears or recruit soldiers and horses, you must start immediately. In addition, we need more money so that we can further recruit more troops to defend Beijing City and repel Li Zicheng!"
Chongzhen looked up at a loss: "Do you want more money?"
Zhu Cilang said: "That's natural, it's just where it goes. The father-in-law and Cao Huachun combined are only a few hundred thousand, which is far from the three million that the Duke of England said yesterday."
Zhu Cixuan mainly wants to complete the task. In this case, the system is undoubtedly the most reliable.
Chongzhen was silent for a while and said, "But, what should I do next?"
Zhu Cilang smiled with a tooth: "Does the father believe in the son? If you believe it, you only need to give a decree and let the son handle the matter with full authority. The son can guarantee that before sunset tomorrow, the father will definitely get enough money and a force enough to defend the capital!"
Chongzhen looked at Zhu Cilang.
In Chongzhen's eyes, what he saw was a young man's face, which was very similar to the former Chongzhen.
But the difference is that in the eyes of this young man, there is a sea of stars that Chongzhen never had!
Chongzhen suddenly felt that he seemed... really old.
