Hearing Guo An's question, Li Mazi shuddered subconsciously.
This group of people has been in Beiping Mansion for a while, and they all know the power of Prince Yan's Mansion in Beiping Mansion.
Originally, I wanted to take advantage of this new year to pick up a few more children, and then run away to the south and never come here again.
However, he never expected that they only abducted a few children from ordinary people's families, but actually provoked Prince Yan's Mansion to take action personally.
As soon as they hid in the safe house, hundreds of thousands of young people in the entire city of Beiping put down their work and worked together to search for them.
It had only been less than two hours and they had already been captured!
If I had known earlier, when they abducted those five children, they would have quickly transported them out of Beiping Mansion and fled away...
"Um?"
Seeing this group of people, his teeth trembled with fright, but he didn't say a word.
A Yanshan guard beside him slapped these people's teeth directly.
A bunch of beasts, how dare they act like human beings and kidnap people's children?
You even dare to abduct the child of a Yanshan Guard soldier?
"You, these evil beasts, are deaf. Can't you hear what Guo Changshi asked you?"
"Ah... don't hit, don't hit..."
The severe pain in his body woke Li Mazi up and screamed repeatedly.
"snort!"
The few Yanshan guards vented their grievances and stopped.
"Back to Guo Changshi, the villain came from the south with the fleet!"
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Li Mazi said quickly.
Guo An asked quietly: "How many children have been abducted from Beiping Mansion?"
"Just these five...six!"
"Only these six?"
Guo An's eyes narrowed.
Several Yanshan guards around were already staring closely at Li Mazi and others.
Li Mazi and others trembled, kowtowed quickly and explained: "Back to Guo Changshi, this is really the first time for Xiaoren and others to come to Beiping Mansion. They just kidnapped six children, and you caught them!"
"In this case, you are lucky!"
Guo An nodded slightly.
Li Mazi and others were stunned. Now that they had been caught, they were about to die, so how could they still be considered lucky?
Guo An, however, had lost interest in these people and turned to Zhu Di for instructions.
"Your Highness, I don't know how to deal with these people?"
Hearing this, Li Mazi and others immediately tensed up and listened carefully.
Zhu Di glanced at the group of people coldly, and then looked at the group of common people outside.
"This man Yazi was captured by you, and it was these thieves who abducted your children. I wonder what you folks are going to do with these people?"
"Your Highness, the villain has realized his mistake. The villain is willing to work as an ox or a horse for Your Highness. Your Highness can ask the villain to do whatever he wants. Never leave the villain to these common people!"
"Yes, Your Highness, the villain did not kidnap their child. I beg Your Highness to have mercy..."
Li Mazi and others suddenly looked panicked and begged again and again.
And the people below were filled with resentment.
"Your Highness, these people are extremely vicious. They often cause harm to the villains and other common people. They want to cut them into pieces with a thousand knives!"
"Your Highness, I think it is appropriate to hang these people outside the city gate, so that outsiders will not dare to do immoral things in Beiping Mansion!"
'Your Highness, I think I can't take advantage of these human teeth, so I can skin them and eat grass, and then hang them outside the city gate...'
"Your Highness..."
Under the influence of Ming Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, these people were very knowledgeable about various tortures.
Soon, these common people spoke out one by one about the tortures that would make people tremble when they heard them.
Below, Li Mazi and the others, Yazi, even looked pale after hearing this.
Even in the middle of winter, their bodies were already wet.
"Your Highness, we are all innocent. We were all deceived by this thief Li Mazi!"
"Your Highness, I was a kind person before, but I was deceived by that Li Mazi..."
"The wicked Li Mazi deserves to be cut into pieces..."
A group of people began to report each other internally.
No one paid any attention to this.
And all the common people were still quarreling.
In the end, it was Zhu Di who had the final say.
“It’s really unlucky to be cut into pieces and skinned and eaten during the Chinese New Year.
Then I will hand over these people to you, and let you stick them to death alive, and then hang them outside the city gate to warn those people not to come to our Beiping Mansion to seek death! "
"Your Highness is wise!"
"Thank you, Your Highness..."
"You guys drag them to the city gate and punish them!"
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Immediately, a group of people came forward together, dragged the fifteen people up by their teeth, and walked out.
Behind them, a group of Yanshan Guards followed closely.
Zhu Di, Guo An and others turned around and walked into the palace without following to watch.
However, this day.
Outside Peiping City, tens of thousands of people were surrounded in darkness.
And in the middle, there were fifteen people, men and women, old and young, who were stripped of their winter clothes by a group of common people, leaving only a layer of underwear.
Then, he was held on the ground by a few strong young men.
On both sides, there were a group of common people holding long sticks and greeting them vigorously.
The fifteen people howled miserably all afternoon, while the surrounding people followed suit and cheered all afternoon.
At night, outside the gate of Beiping City, fifteen beaten corpses were hung neatly.
As for hundreds of thousands of people inside and outside Beiping City, they were raising their children one by one at home.
Those wicked people actually appear again!
I have finally raised a few boys at home, and I must not let those wicked people ruin their teeth!
…
Guo Mansion.
Liu Baiwei and others naturally heard about Bai Ri's incident.
"Sir, for such a big commotion today, your Majesty will not issue an order to punish it, right?"
"should be!"
Guo An said quietly.
"Then you and His Highness Prince Yan are still doing that?" Liu Baiwei asked with worry on her face.
"I can't do it!"
Guo An sighed softly, "In the hands of those people, the children of the Yanshan guards were also abducted.
Those Yanshan Guards went to Korea and Japan because of me.
I can't let them go to Goryeo to fight with Japan, but we let their children be abducted by those people. It's a waste! "
"Those people deserve to die!"
Liu Baiwei said something fiercely, and then said again:
"However, you and His Highness Prince Yan allowed the common people to beat those fifteen people to death at the gate of the city. This was a private punishment. Your Majesty and the high officials in the court..."
"Sister, are you talking about this?"
Hearing this, Guo An looked relaxed.
"Don't worry, sister, if you let the people beat a few people to death at the gate of the city without any interrogation, Your Majesty will only reprimand you a few times, and nothing will happen!"
"That's good……"
Liu Baiwei breathed a sigh of relief.
…
And about this.
All the officials in the Beiping government office seemed to know nothing.
As for the Chief Envoy, the Capital Commander, the Inspector, and the Jin Yiwei, they all wrote a report and quickly sent it to Yingtian City, the capital.
The second day.
The city of Peiping has returned to normal again, and there are still stalls on the streets, selling all kinds of small items.
The streets were bustling with people.
Occasionally, there are some acrobats, those who breathe fire, those who swallow swords, those who change faces...
Very lively.
However, the only difference from yesterday was that when entering and leaving Beiping City, many people would stand outside the city gate and look up at the fifteen corpses on the city gate for a few glances.
Then, he spat out a mouthful of thick phlegm.
Soon, it’s New Year’s Eve.
The entire Beiping Mansion was even more lively and joyful.
However, in Yingtian City, the capital.
Erhu held the memorial in his hand, but his face was filled with embarrassment.
Why are you so crazy during the Chinese New Year? Everyone insists on giving memorials to His Majesty.
It would be fine if it was a happy event.
And if it's a bad thing, wouldn't it be a bad time to spend this New Year?
However, there were only memorials from Sansi and Jinyiwei, but there was no memorial from Prince Yan's Mansion.
According to Erhu's experience, it was definitely a group of officials from the Beiping Mansion who reported some bad things about His Highness King Yan!
What is the big deal that requires you to submit a memorial at this time?
There are also vassal kings in other places, why don't they go to memorial?
well!
Hesitation is hesitation.
In the end, I didn’t dare to delay.
"What's the matter?"
Erhu said cautiously: "Your Majesty, the Chief Envoy Department, the Inspectorate Envoy Department, the Capital Command Department, and the Jinyi Guard Qianhu Office all have memorials here!"
"There is no fourth child?"
Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned for a moment and looked at Erhu.
Erhu shook his head repeatedly, "Reporting to Your Majesty, there is no memorial from His Highness King Yan!"
"Bring them all up!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
At this time, officials from all over the country were very sensible and did not issue memorials.
Therefore, there are not many memorials on Zhu Yuanzhang's desk.
Zhu Yuanzhang started reading after looking through the memorials of the chief officials of Beiping Mansion.
At first, Zhu Yuanzhang's expression was relatively stable, even a little happy.
However, after seeing the memorial from the Inspector General, he frowned.
On the side, Erhu's heart suddenly trembled.
"Bastard thing!"
Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly snorted coldly, causing Erhu to tense up subconsciously. His Majesty had murderous intentions.
"Have someone check with the inspector of Beiping Mansion!"
"According to the order!"
Erhu responded quickly and exited the hall.
Inside the palace.
Zhu Yuanzhang picked up Jin Yiwei's memorial and read it again, his eyes still a little dazed.
"With just one word, you can summon more than 200 district chiefs from Wanping County and Daxing County!"
"One word can make tens of thousands of young people from Wanping County and Daxing County run for it!"
"In less than two hours, the Yanshan Guards and the people worked together to scrape the ground of the entire Beiping City three feet, plowing through it, and pulled out the teeth of those people..."
"How can the fourth child gain so much trust from the people in Beiping Mansion?"
"What if those bastards Second, Third, and Fifth..."
…
And this will.
What happened in Beiping Mansion also began to spread throughout the Ming Dynasty.
After hearing this, some people couldn't help but express their feelings.
In particular, all the officials in the capital looked solemn and furious.
Is King Yan Zhu Di so popular in the Peiping Mansion?
Raise your arms and shout, and hundreds of thousands of people will respond?
He is just a vassal king, how dare he do this?
What if King Yan, who was so trusted by the people of the vassal land, started to rebel?
Wouldn't that be...
Thinking about it, an undercurrent suddenly surged in Yingtian City.
And in the palace.
Zhu Yuanzhang was sitting on the dragon chair, watching everything outside quietly. His whole person was majestic, indifferent, and had a trace of murderous intent, which made the two tigers beside him tremble.
