Kong Chengwu was shocked by this sudden news.
Court, no, the new emperor is going to attack our Confucius family?
Otherwise, why would traffic arteries be blocked? Are you specifically arresting people from our Kong family?
"Didn't you ask them to identify themselves as Confucius?"
The man said with a sad face:
"I told you, it's useless. Those officers and soldiers don't care about it at all. As long as they find out that the road guide belongs to our Kong family, they will be captured immediately. It's useless to say anything."
"I didn't dare to go there. Later, I asked Xiao Qi and others to explore the way. In the end, they were all arrested."
"There was a little brother down there who was unconvinced and yelled, wanting to cause a big scene, but the officers and soldiers immediately pulled out their swords and chopped them off..."
Kong Chengwu's vision suddenly turned black, and he had already started to kill people with a knife?
what on earth is it? Did something happen?
But it's clear that it hasn't officially started yet...
"I know," he ordered in a low voice:
"You calm down the people below first, I will go in and discuss with the elders, and then go to the magistrate and the others. We must not let those barbarians ruin the reputation of our Kong family!"
After saying that, he immediately turned around and entered the house, strode to the elders, and told the matter with a heavy face.
"What?"
"How can it be?"
"This is simply unreasonable!"
Many elders of the Confucius family were suddenly in an uproar and became furious.
"What do they want to do? How dare they do this to the people of our Kong family?"
"Could the imperial court have gone crazy?"
"Xiao Wu, is your news true?"
Kong Chengwu is the leader of the younger generation of the Confucius family and the great steward of the Confucius family. He is responsible for many things in daily life, whether light or dark.
Therefore, he nodded, his face looked very solemn:
"Fellow family elders, I think this matter is very urgent. We should report it to the head of the family immediately, who will come forward to communicate with the prefect, put pressure on the government, and find out what is going on."
"We must not let the disciples of the Confucius family fall into the hands of those barbarians, otherwise we will be tortured and tortured. I really don’t know what will happen!"
Many family elders also nodded, feeling shocked and angry in their hearts. No one expected that the officers and soldiers would block the traffic artery outside and even arrest people from the Kong family!
What if the messengers sent by those big families were also caught?
This matter is simply urgent and urgent!
…
Inside Wenyuan Pavilion.
The warm basin heated up the whole hall, without any hint of the cold outside the hall. Several pots of green plants were gently swaying their branches and leaves, and they were growing very gratifyingly.
Zhu Gaojie was discussing political orders with several cabinet bachelors and discussing how to govern Mobei next.
"Everyone should understand Gu's thoughts."
"Although the Mobei grassland has been cleared and swept once by the army, it is still far from enough."
"These alien races are growing very fast. If they cannot immigrate there quickly, let the Han people divide and rule them, and slowly integrate them, there will soon be a second Oara Tatar and the like."
"This kind of thing will never be tolerated by Gu, so it is imperative to immigrate to the grassland!"
"You need to put more thought into it."
Several cabinet bachelors looked at each other, and finally Yang Shiqi spoke:
"Your Majesty, I also agree with the immigration issue, but it will cost a lot of money and food. Although the Ministry of Revenue has made up for it with the war gains on the grassland, it is still far from enough..."
"This year's tax collection hasn't started yet. I'm afraid it's too late, Your Majesty."
When Zhu Gaojie heard this, he couldn't help but smile. Of course he knew that the court had little money now, and Xia Yuanji had complained in his ear several times.
The Tatars and Oaras had been conquered before, and the wealth obtained had to be rewarded to the army on the one hand, and included in the national treasury on the other. It could only be said to be barely enough to keep the Treasury of the Ministry of Revenue from bottoming out.
It is almost impossible to support large-scale immigration operations.
However, Zhu Gaojie knew very well that the opportunity to obtain a large amount of wealth had been delivered to him!
"Yang Qing, come and take a look at this."
He took out a secret document from his hand and handed it to Yang Rong at the side. After all, this was the bachelor of the cabinet and was in charge of the entire cabinet.
Yang Rong was frowning, thinking hard about where to get the money, and how to start immigrating according to the plan after getting the money. When he suddenly saw Zhu Gaojie handing him a memorial, he was stunned.
When he took it over and looked at it carefully, he was even more shocked! The expression on his face also became strange.
As this memorial passed through the hands of several cabinet bachelors, the expressions on their faces became almost as weird as Yang Rong's.
How should I put it, the content of this memorial is very difficult to understand...
There are actually people who really want to rebel in the North!
They are still those very famous aristocratic families!
There is even something about the Yanshengong family!
This has confused all cabinet scholars. What exactly does your Majesty want to do with this move?
As we all know, His Majesty is an out-and-out war god of the Ming Dynasty. Whether facing internal rebellion or attacking external enemy countries, he has always been victorious and never defeated.
The current army of the Ming Dynasty is only three battalions stationed outside the capital city. They can be called the strongest elite division of the Ming Dynasty. Even the most ferocious grassland aliens are no match for them...
Under such a situation, there are still people thinking of starting a rebellion?
And they are all from well-known families with prominent family backgrounds!
It's hard not to think wrongly. Could it be that His Majesty is planning to get some money from these people first?
Seeing everyone's appearance, Zhu Gaojie suddenly became happy:
"Who do you think I am?"
He stood up, walked around for a few steps, and sighed slightly:
"If these people weren't always trying to cause trouble for me, and even wanted to establish a new emperor, I wouldn't bother to pay attention to them."
"To put it bluntly, I am not a murderous person. As long as they keep their status quo, how can there not be room for a few families in this big world?"
"The problem is that these people are obviously rich and wealthy, but they always spend money and money. They are unwilling to abide by the law and obey the court, and they are unwilling to act their duty and treat the people well. They always want to expand their families and seek more wealth. He has great wealth and status, and even has a lot of dissatisfaction with me, the emperor."
"How can I tolerate this?"
"Also," Zhu Gaojie walked to the window, opened it suddenly, and felt the cold chill that penetrated the heart:
"As descendants of saints, the Kong family is known as the leader of the Wen Sect in the world. Why do they want to participate in such nonsense?"
"Do you really think I will give them this face?"
"I'm very unhappy!" (End of chapter)
