Chapter 385 What does it mean to be the emperor immediately?
At this time, Zhu Di was already excited.
It's like a wolf that has been hungry for a long time and finally smells blood.
Zhu Di glanced at Zhang Anshi and said, "Get ready to take action."
Zhang Anshi stood up, hugged Zhu Di and said, "Your Majesty... I have gone."
After that, he turned around and left.
But Chen Jinye was a little flustered. He was at a loss as to whether he should follow Zhang Anshi.
Zhu Di became extremely calm and calm, and only glanced at Chen Jinye: "Have you ever killed anyone?"
Chen Jinye was startled, and then said blankly: "No, I have never killed him."
Zhu Di asked: "How do you scholars view murder?"
"This... scholars don't kill, scholars only teach..."
Zhu Di smiled and said, "Do you know why this is so?"
"I...I don't know..."
Zhu Di smiled contemptuously: "Because the scholars' rebellion will not happen in ten years. You people... are nothing in the world of killing people. That's why we advocate that people put down their swords. In this case, if everyone puts down their swords, you will be invincible."
."
"I think... what your Majesty said is too extreme." Chen Jinye tried his best to calm down and said: "There are also loyal and courageous scholars..."
Zhu Di said: "Okay, it seems that Chen Qing's family is a loyal and brave person. Now someone comes into the city and wants to assassinate him. Since you are loyal, come and give him a knife and let him kill the enemy."
Chen Jinye: "..."
Qiu Song, who was responsible for protecting Zhu Di, stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid he doesn't know how to use a knife."
As he said that, he took out a bundle of gunpowder packets from his sleeve and stuffed it into Chen Jinye: "Use this, simply and neatly!"
Chen Jinye stared at the gunpowder bag thrust into his hand with his eyes wide open, his whole body trembling.
Under the night sky.
A huge crowd of people marched straight into the magistrate's office.
Liu Feng, the prefect of Jiujiang, heard the commotion and kept asking the officials around him: "What time is it? Have you entered the city..."
He anxiously paced back and forth with his hands behind his back.
Nanchang Mansion has already issued a message asking him to cooperate with the water thieves entering the city.
Liu Feng was shocked by this incident. If it had been any other time, he would have never dared to do such a thing.
But now...he has no way out.
When Jin Yiwei sealed the treasury, he knew that sooner or later he would be killed. There were too many invisible things in the treasury.
If there were any signs before, he could have destroyed the evidence calmly, but Jin Yiwei made so many moves that he had no time to prepare.
But now, it seems that the only way to go is to take risks.
It is a good idea for water thieves to enter the city. Once the water thieves enter the city, all the evidence will be completely destroyed along with this incident.
At that time, after all the water thieves have been killed, he will lead his guards and make a desperate gesture of resistance. After the thieves retreat, he can still report that he has defeated the thieves.
This can be said to be a win-win situation!
The water thieves robbed them of their things, and he suddenly transformed into a hero who defended the city!
Although it caused huge consequences, and countless soldiers and civilians died at the hands of thieves, the merits and demerits were balanced, and in the worst case, lives would not be lost.
Da da da da…
At this moment, rapid footsteps came from outside.
The anxious prefect Liu Feng remained silent and listened carefully to what was going on outside.
Those were rapid footsteps.
Immediately afterwards, someone shouted: "Who are you?"
"Well……"
A miserable voice came out.
A moment later, blood suddenly rained on the paper window.
The paper window looks like plum blossoms, with bright red blood blooming.
Liu Feng shivered and was shocked.
Immediately afterwards, the door was slammed open.
Then a burly man came in holding a sharp knife.
Liu Feng was surprised and said: "Who are you?"
"Hero Wang Xiong!" the visitor shouted.
"You...you...why are you here...this is not the place to talk..." Liu Feng stamped his feet anxiously and gritted his teeth: "Get out of here..."
He looked down upon these thieves.
In his opinion, he and the people above him were just using these thieves.
But Wang Xiong took a step forward and said, "I have something to do, so I have to come here."
Liu Fengla said with a long face: "What's the matter? What's your message?"
Wang Xiong said: "That gentleman has ordered me to kill you first when I enter the city, and then massacre all the people in the government office, and then kill others."
After hearing this, Liu Feng trembled suddenly. He opened his eyes wide and looked at Wang Xiong: "You... how dare you... how... how is it possible? I treat him as a teacher, why would he kill me? I...
I...this...is impossible."
Wang Xiong didn't hesitate, he directly raised the sharp ax in his hand and slammed it hard on Liu Feng's forehead.
Click...
Liu Feng's body stiffened and became motionless. An ax suddenly appeared on his head. He groaned and fell backwards to the ground.
Wang Xiong stepped on Liu Feng's body and used hard force to pull out the sharp ax stuck in Liu Feng's skull. He breathed heavily: "Another one has been killed. Order, no one here is wanted."
Stay! The prefect surnamed Liu also has a son who is also in the house. The superiors have ordered him to chop them into meat paste for me. They know too many things."
After that, he held the bloody ax and said as he walked: "Let's go!"
With a single order, countless people disappeared into the darkness.
…………
Countless people went straight to the county government office using the familiar route.
And here it is.
There are only about three hundred people.
These ambush soldiers had already quietly entered the city, but they were all hiding in the county government office and several nearby residences.
Just like a sardine, it can neither move nor move in and out at will.
Thanks to daily practice, I was able to get through it.
Otherwise, any battalion of soldiers and horses would not be able to enforce such orders and prohibitions.
But now, they can finally stretch their muscles and bones.
Everyone began to disassemble the ammunition brought by horses and carriages in the rear warehouse.
Roadblocks and temporary sand barriers were erected in several places near the county government office.
Then...many firearms began to be set up.
There was a fire in the government office.
Zhang Anshi walked back and forth and kept saying to Zhu Yong beside him: "Remember to protect me. What the thieves want most is my life."
Zhu Yong said nonchalantly: "Don't worry, brother, you won't die."
Zhang Anshi said worriedly: "It's not that you can't die, it's that you can't lose a single hair."
Zhu Yong was a little embarrassed: "This vellus hair... How can I say this accurately?"
Zhang Anshi glared at him irritably, and then said: "Okay, okay, get ready, the thief is coming, I don't know what happened to that boy Zhang Fu."
"Third brother will be fine." Zhu Yong said carelessly, "He is not the fourth brother."
Zhang Anshi breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the darkness in the distance. At the end of the long street...he couldn't see his fingers.
But it seemed that in the night fog, some spirit would suddenly pop out at any time.
A feeling of tension could not help but flow out of Zhang Anshi's heart.
He has not liked fighting and killing since he was a child. He likes fighting, but it is a pity that God does not fulfill his wish!
…………
The Taoist is here again.
Carrying a gourd on his back, he greeted the old man.
The old man smiled and said: "Let's play chess again?"
"Haha, you've already lost, how dare you humiliate yourself!"
"Sit down and drink tea."
The two sat down. They were old friends for many years. In this late night, the old man did not feel any discomfort with the Taoist's arrival.
"I heard that in the past two days, you went to the mountains to visit the immortals again. How was it? Did you meet the immortals?"
"Hey..." The Taoist shook his head and said, "The master probably doesn't hide in the forest. Maybe... they must be hiding in the busy city. I have been visiting immortals for many years, but I haven't seen them yet."
"Then why do you think you are in a busy city?"
The Taoist said: "Not in the mountains, but in the busy city."
"I really envy you, you can be free and carefree."
"How have I ever been at ease? How can I not be concerned about the things in this mortal world? If it weren't for the darkness of the world, the unrest in the world, and the smoky atmosphere above the temple, why would I want to imitate the Seven Sages in the Bamboo Grove and visit the immortals in the mountains?"
The old man sighed and said nothing.
However, the Taoist changed the topic and said: "How is the matter?"
The old man then raised his head and said calmly: "It should be tonight."
"Water thieves are entering the city tonight?"
"yes."
"Are you sure?"
"Totally confident."
"Why?"
The old man smiled and said: "The biggest obstacle to the water thieves' rebellion is the city wall. As long as they enter the city at night, no one will dare to stop them."
"What's more... Zhu Laosi and Zhang Anshi want to deceive others. Their followers must not be many, maybe only a hundred people. This time the water thieves come out in full force and kill one out of ten, so there is no need to worry about not accomplishing anything."
The Taoist said with some worry: "What I'm worried about is that Zhu Laosi..."
The old man seemed to understand the man's thoughts and said: "He is old. Not to mention that he may not have such luck when he was in his prime, let alone now... Since ancient times, how many heroes have been slaughtered by others when they are old. You
I have experienced all this, don’t you know?”
The Taoist sighed: "If... if... this happens, how should we deal with the aftermath?"
The old man said: "Yi'er, there are no chickens or dogs left in the city. Since then... there have been soldiers and horses ambushing the waterway where the water thieves retreated. Once the water thieves kill them indiscriminately, they will return to Poyang Lake and kill them all."
All, then...everything is over."
The Taoist frowned and said: "The imperial court may not..."
The old man looked at the Taoist with a smile and said: "The imperial court... without Zhu Laosi, what is it? The heroes of Jingnan were brave but not clever. Can they find out the truth? The princes in the court... do have some
Conspiracy, but how many of them... have more or less connections with people from various prefectures and counties in Jiangxi, I'm afraid many people should breathe a sigh of relief."
The Taoist sighed: "If it fails, what will be the result?"
The old man was silent.
After a long time, the old man stood up slightly tremblingly while holding on to the handle of the chair, and said: "God wants to destroy these two thieves, so why should we be defeated!"
…………
There are many people, and the crowd is full of people.
"mob……"
Zhang Anshi finally saw countless people at the end of the long street.
It's strange to say that he was still worried when he didn't see the so-called thieves, but seeing these people made him feel at ease.
They appeared in a swarm, almost without formation, weren't they just a mob?
There wasn't even a call, there was nothing, just shouts of death.
Countless figures, holding various weapons high, rushed towards me like headless flies.
Zhang Anshi actually felt desolate, and just waved his sleeves and said: "I can't see the blood, you are busy."
With that said, he went directly to the county government office.
Soon, the sound of firecrackers came from behind Zhang Anshi.
Then... there was the rattling of machine guns.
The screams, roars, and gunfire all came together and seemed to resound throughout the night sky.
Zhang Anshi entered the mansion in a hurry.
Zhu Di was sitting here. He looked up and saw Zhang Anshi coming in and said, "It's not resolved yet?"
Zhu Di looked a little impatient.
Just a bunch of petty thieves.
Zhu Di never took this seriously.
"Your Majesty, it's almost time. It's not that I didn't work hard, it's that the thieves came too late." Zhang Anshi actually showed a bit of helplessness on his face.
Zhu Di nodded and continued: "How are the other places arranged?"
"Everything is ready."
"Very good." Zhu Di nodded, and then said: "After capturing the thief, interrogate him immediately."
Zhang Anshi hesitated for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, after today, your Majesty's whereabouts will be noticed. Will..."
Zhu Di waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "I'll go to Nanchang Mansion next. It's time to settle accounts."
Zhang Anshi sighed.
Zhu Di looked at him strangely and said, "Why are you sighing?"
Zhang Anshi said: "I...can't imagine that they dare to do such a thing."
Zhu Di didn't seem surprised, and smiled and said: "Do you know why I want to be in trouble?"
"Ah...this..."
Zhu Di rarely mentioned the topic of Jingnan.
In a sense, Zhu Di still wanted to lose face. This matter... was still a bit taboo after all, so if he didn't mention it, others would naturally not dare to mention it in front of him.
Just when Zhang Anshi didn't know how to answer, Zhu Di said: "The imperial court wants to reduce the vassal state. If the vassal king does not comply, he will be punished at worst, and the vassal territory will be lost at the worst. But at that time... what did I have in my hand? Beiping
The city is already full of Jianwen
The ministers sent to monitor me at all times, and all the troops and horses have been monitored by the court. Even if I raise my arms, the number of sergeants in my hand who can gather and be willing to follow me will probably only be a few hundred people.
…”
"No matter what, I never thought that we would be here today. This process of peace and calamity was really too dangerous. To pit a mere Prince Yan's Mansion against the entire world. Even if I succeeded a hundred times, as long as I failed once, I would be dead."
It must be a place where you will die without ever being buried."
"But look..." Zhu Di looked at Zhang Anshi faintly, and then said: "God is lucky to me, didn't I also come here? You are the commander of the Jinyi Guards. When you encounter someone who is plotting rebellion, you must not use your own
Think about why some people dare to rebel, why some people are obviously extremely smart, but dare to do such things, because... it doesn't make any sense, what you want to do is to ride on the world and kill those who don't obey."
After Zhang Anshi heard this, his expression suddenly became solemn, and then he said: "I have learned a lesson."
Zhu Di said calmly: "These words must not be said to anyone."
Zhang Anshi said: "Yes..."
There was loud gunfire outside.
Finally...after half an hour, the gunshots stopped.
Several people were tied up and brought in. One of them was injured and was wailing.
Zhu Yong kicked one of them, and that person fell to the ground. He struggled to stand up, but his hands were tied behind his back, so he curled up and stretched on the ground like a worm.
Zhu Di cheered up, sat upright, and looked at these people.
Zhu Yong said: "Your Majesty, the thieves have been captured, and these are the leaders."
Zhu Di said: "How many were killed?"
"We sent out some of them to pursue them. After that, the troops led by my third brother have set up an ambush in the west of the city. They will wait for the other thieves to retreat and then immediately kill them. None of them can escape."
Zhu Di nodded and then asked: "How many casualties are there?"
Zhu Yong said truthfully: "It hasn't been counted yet, but there should be... no casualties."
Zhu Di seemed very satisfied, but said: "Then go and count them quickly. There is one casualty, which makes people feel sad."
Zhu Yong said: "Here."
After saying that, he turned around and left in a hurry.
Zhang Anshi was on the side, looking at these thieves coldly, and shouted sharply: "Tell me, who is colluding with you?"
These thieves were quite tough. They snorted coldly, looked away, and then ignored them.
Zhu Di laughed and said to Zhang Anshi: "One thing is that you are still inferior to Ji Gang."
Zhang Anshi can't stand it any longer. I, Zhang Anshi, am not as good as Ji Gang?
Zhu Di had already stood up.
He casually took the knife from a captain's waist.
With a clang, he pulled out the sharp blade, and then stepped on one of the thieves. Without asking any questions, he stabbed the knife directly into the calf of the thieves.
"Ah..." the thief leader whined.
Zhu Di turned a deaf ear, but was very serious, as if a big girl was embroidering, gently turning the sharp blade and slowly cutting on the calf.
The thief screamed desperately and struggled twitchingly.
But Zhu Di stepped on him, like a nail nailing him to the ground, and continued to slowly carve patterns on the thief's calf.
Several thieves on the side turned pale with fright and were all trembling.
One of them said in horror: "Say...I said..."
Zhu Di suddenly looked sideways at the man.
The thief who spoke this was suddenly glanced at by Zhu Di's eyes, and a cold light flashed down his back. He had always thought that he was a reckless hero who had killed countless people and was extremely daring.
But Zhu Di's eyes were so fierce that they pierced his soul. He subconsciously shuddered, but with just this look, his body seemed to soften.
The knife in Zhu Di's hand was pulled out from the calf that had been muscled and boned. The bloody blade spread out hot blood and slashed horizontally.
The thief who spoke felt his eyes blurred. Suddenly, he let out a groan, but the blade swept directly from his face. The blade directly cut his eyes. His hands were tied, and he could not cover his eyes, so he could only fight with all his strength.
The ground wailed, and blood dripped from his eyes.
Zhu Di's voice was as cold as ice: "Did I ask you to speak?"
The man just screamed in agony and heartbreak, and after a moment, he fainted.
Zhu Di turned around and continued to raise the knife, intending to cut on the calf that had already been deboned and tendons cut.
Several other thieves were as naked as chaff in a sieve, and they were shaking all over, but they gritted their teeth desperately and did not dare to make any sound. In the depths of their bloodshot eyes, there was only endless fear.

Finally updated, Tiger breathed a sigh of relief again, good night everyone, and please give me your monthly pass!
