Once this thought arises, it can no longer be suppressed.
But escaping is not easy.
It is not safe to travel by water now, and it is impossible to escape by land.
"What will happen to my brother if I leave?" Wu Lang took a deep breath and thought of his biological brother Wu Zhen.
Wu Zhen was granted the title Marquis Jinghai and is currently supervising shipping. This is a position with real power.
If he leaves Daye, Wu Zhen will definitely be implicated, and he cannot do such a thing.
Moreover, the two brothers worked hard and achieved great results, so they should not kill him. He can also send a message to Hu Guoyong, so there must be no problem.
Suppressing the anxiety in his heart, he also gave up the idea of escape. Now the great cause is stable, unlike before.
Xie Zaixing was able to thrive because he stabbed Zhu Yuanzhang in the back and helped Zhang Zhou make great contributions. If he had escaped, he would have been laughed at as a lost dog!
"Damn Madman Zhu!" Wu Lang cursed and slumped on the chair helplessly.
...
At the same time, the Suzaku Army took complete control of Fengyang City Defense, and the city defenders who intercepted the village a few days ago were also tried in public.
Cut in half in front of tens of thousands of people.
The bloody scene not only did not frighten the people, but also pleased them.
Er Niu, in particular, was so excited that his whole body trembled, and he knelt on the ground and called the King of Wu a thousand years old.
Only then did they completely believe that King Wu was thinking about the people.
After beheading the soldiers, the right time, right place, and right people were completely on Zhu Jun's side.
The human heart is available.
There is no conflict with the temporary disaster management measures promulgated by Zhu Jun.
And Zhu Jun also waved his hand and recruited a large number of manpower to strengthen the dam, of course, for a fee.
When the boxes of money were brought out and placed in front of everyone, countless people stood up.
Zhu Jun was very tired after a busy day.
But the situation was finally stabilized.
Next, you just need to follow the plan. Fengyang will usher in a big change in half a month at most!
...
In Zhongdu Mansion, the craftsmen also knew what happened during the day.
The Suzaku Army took over the city defense, Wu Lang was imprisoned, Xue Yang was imprisoned, soldiers were beheaded in the street, and the government was opened to try unjust cases. This series of actions all showed that His Highness the King of Wu was extremely capable.
"Kuai, Boss Kuai, something happened!" A middle-aged man strode up to Kuai Mingsi, out of breath.
Kuai Mingsi is the leader of the carpenters. To be precise, he is the leader of the Xiangshan Gang.
It turns out that the Xiangshan Gang refers to the craftsmen in Suzhou, but as the Xiangshan Gang became famous, they first built the Yingtian Palace and then the Zhongdu Palace, becoming the banner of craftsmen.
This Quin Mingsi is a famous master carpenter.
"Don't worry, what happened?" asked Kuai Mingsi.
"Xue Yang has been arrested. There is news that His Highness the King of Wu has found out who owns the treasure and is ready to take action!" The man's eyes were full of horror, "What should we do, Kuai Tou!"
Kuai Ming's heart was in his throat. Before he could speak, a eunuch came over. This eunuch was called Chen Lun, and he was also the supervising eunuch. "Kuai Ming, call all the craftsmen over. We have something to announce!"
"Dare you ask Eunuch Chen, what's going on!" Kuai Mingsi asked respectfully.
"Good thing!" Chen Lun said with a smile: "You have finally got through your hard life!"
Hearing this, Kuai Mingsi was not happy at all, but became even more nervous!
He stepped forward and quietly put a piece of silver into Chen Lun's hand, "Eunuch Chen, you are stupid, please let me know clearly!"
Chen Lun weighed it up, and the smile on his face became even bigger, "Well, you are lucky to have met His Highness King Wu. As the imperial envoy, His Highness King Wu supervised the construction of the Zhongdu Palace and verified the craftsmen's rations and wages since Shenwu's three years. , missed hair, less hair, plan to make up for it!
Isn't this a good thing? "
Kuai Mingsi was shocked. Nearly 70,000 craftsmen were sent to build Zhongdu. The rations and silver that were owed were at least a million taels of silver. How could King Wu get so much silver?
"Haha, it's a good thing, a great thing!" Kuai Mingsi laughed dryly.
"Now that you know everything, you will pass this matter to other foremen. His Highness King Wu will summon you later. Remember to dress...properly!" Chen Lun explained, and then left.
"Farewell, father-in-law!" Kuai Mingsi said respectfully.
After seeing Chen Lun off, Kuai Mingsi looked at the people behind him, "Have you heard that?"
"What does King Wu mean? Reissue rations and money?"
"Is there a fraud in this?"
"The King of Wu was decisive in his killing. Just now I came in from the outside, and dozens of soldiers were cut in half. Where are their bodies now? It feels like they are infiltrating people just thinking about it!"
Everyone was talking to each other, and Kuai Mingsi couldn't help but beat the drum in his heart. He gritted his teeth and said: "No matter what King Wu means, if he can really reissue the salary and rations, it will be a great thing for us!
Go and call all the other foremen! "
Kuai Mingsi had a high prestige among the craftsmen. He quickly called the craftsmen of various types of work over and explained the matter. Many people showed joy on their faces, "This is a great thing!"
"It's a good thing, but King Wu already knows about Zhenwu, and Doctor Xue has been sent to prison.
Once this matter is investigated, none of us will be able to escape! "Kui Mingsi took a deep breath.
Everyone said: "Zhenwu is just a rumor. In short, my people have not done such a thing!"
"That's right, my people have never done such a thing!"
They would admit this kind of thing and kill it in one fell swoop. This is a rumor.
"You know whether there are rumors, but if this matter reaches His Majesty's ears, you know the consequences!" Kuai Ming thought: "The person who did this was instructed by someone, or was bribed by someone, I in spite of.
But if you want to drag everyone into the water together, no way! "
The crowd was as silent as a chill, with a few people avoiding their eyes and not daring to look into Kuai Mingsi's eyes.
"Boss Kuai, as long as we fight to the death and refuse to admit it, it will be fine. King Wu doesn't understand this!"
"That's right, don't think too much!"
Kuai Mingsi did not answer. At this time, people from the Suzaku Army came over and informed them to go to the Wenhua Palace to meet the King of Wu.
Everyone was shocked, and everyone looked embarrassed.
Kuai Mingsi sighed, it's a blessing, not a curse, it's a curse that can't be avoided!
The project was about to end, but I didn't expect that the thing I was most afraid of would come!
He took a deep breath and walked towards the Wenhua Palace.
Those foremen who originally shouted that everything was fine have all shriveled up.
Soon, the group arrived at the Wenhua Hall.
In the Wenhua Hall, Zhu Jun has prepared a banquet.
Seeing this scene, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
But the uneasiness in Kuai Mingsi's heart was even worse.
What are they?
I'm just a humble craftsman, how could I be able to let the King of Wu entertain me alone?
There is no good feast.
He looked at the young man with a smile on his face at the top, but he was so nervous that he was sweating all over!
