If these fields and the like are all sold, the wealth of the entire Kong family might reach six million taels of silver!
You know, the imperial court’s annual salary was only six million!
A trace of emotion flashed in Li Yan's eyes.
This must be how much people's fat and money have been plundered!
The last hint of guilt in Li Yan's mind disappeared immediately with Li Hu's report next to him.
"General, what should we do with this old guy and those people from the Kong family??"
Li Hu, who was standing next to him, asked Li Yan.
"Kill them all!"
Li Yan said calmly to Li Hu in front of him.
Although he is a scholar, he is also a rebel after all. People who can rebel are usually very hard-hearted, otherwise they would not have the guts to rebel!
"okay!"
After hearing Li Yan's words, Li Hu showed a ferocious expression on his face.
"You can't do this!"
At this time, Kong Yanzhi, who was already tortured and inhuman form on the ground next to him, said in panic to Li Yan in front of him: "I have already told everything about our family, you can't kill me! If you kill me
, that is unethical! This kind of behavior of yours, this kind of behavior of yours!"
Kong Yanzhi wanted to say something else, but suddenly, Li Hu's long knife quickly cut his throat.
Kong Yanzhi's pupils suddenly dilated. He covered his throat with both hands. Blood began to pour out of his throat. He desperately tried to cover his throat.
But the blood flowed more and more, and Kong Yanzhi curled up and fell to the ground. His body was twisting like maggots on the ground, and the blood flowed into a stream around him.
Gradually, Kong Yanzhi's breath of life began to slowly disappear. Finally, his body froze on the ground, unable to struggle any longer.
Kong Yanzhi, the sage of the generation, died just like that!
Li Yan next to him looked at Kong Yanzhi in front of him coldly.
"General, what should we do next? Should we just develop our own base here?"
Li Hu on the side walked towards Li Yan excitedly, with a hint of excitement on his face, and asked Li Yan in front of him.
"No!"
Li Yan said calmly.
“Then what to do??”
Li Hu was stunned for a moment, looking at Li Yan in front of him with a hint of confusion in his eyes.
"Pack up your belongings and surrender to the Crown Prince of Ming Dynasty!"
"What??"
There was a hint of disbelief in Li Hu's eyes. He glanced at the body of Yan Shenggong on the ground, and there was a hint of hesitation in his eyes.
"General, we have just killed Duke Yan Sheng, so we surrender to His Highness the Crown Prince. His Highness the Crown Prince will not kill us by then to thank all the scholars in the world, right?"
Although Li Hu seemed a little reckless on the surface, it was obvious that his heart was much more delicate than he appeared on the surface. Killing Yan Shenggong was really no big deal to him.
But if you want to join the imperial court and kill Duke Yansheng, if you are not careful, you may be pulled out by the imperial court and used as a scapegoat!
In that case, it would be troublesome!
Just when Li Hu hesitated, Li Yan calmly said to Li Hu on the side: "Don't worry! Someone will cover up all this!"
Li Hu was stunned for a moment, looking at Li Yan in front of him with a hint of confusion in his eyes.
But at this time, Li Yan was already walking towards the house of Yansheng Gong in front.
Looking at Yan Shenggong's back, Li Hu was slightly startled and quickly followed him.
Naturally, everything that happened in Duke Yansheng's residence reached Zhu Cixi's ears.
"nice!"
A hint of surprise flashed in Zhu Cixi's eyes.
"This Li Yan looks like a scholar on the surface, but he kills decisively and has absolutely no trace of womanly kindness! Not bad, not bad!"
A smile appeared on Zhu Cixiang's face.
"However, it is rare that this Yan Shenggong can hide so much wealth, a huge wealth of almost six million taels of silver, so much money.
If you are really sleepy, someone will give you a pillow!"
Zhu Cixiang said with emotion.
In fact, what Zhu Cixi was really curious about was the trade between the Yanshengong Palace and the Fuso Kingdom. The Fuso Country was rich in silver, and this time should have been the reign of the Tokugawa Shogunate, the last shogunate in Japan.
And it should be the early period of the Tokugawa shogunate's rule. Maybe I can try to make some transactions with the shogunate. After all, Fuso Country is rich in silver, which is a good thing for me.
Now I am so short of money!
Zhu Cixiang was slightly emotional.
After pondering for a moment, he said to the eunuch on the side: "Go and inform General Huang Degong to lead troops to Qufu to accept the submission of the Ghost Face Army."
The eunuch was stunned for a moment and subconsciously glanced at Zhu Cihong in front of him.
"Yes! Your Highness!"
The eunuch hesitated for a moment, then nodded and saluted Zhu Cihong in front of him.
"His Royal Highness, please let me send troops to Qufu to recover the Ghost Faced Army???"
When Huang Degong heard the words of the eunuch next to him, he was slightly stunned, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.
He had also heard of the Ghost Faced Army, which seemed to be a small-scale rebel force, but it was always on the move. It would disappear immediately after plundering a county every time, and it never had a direct conflict with the official army.
Therefore, the officers and soldiers rarely find traces of them. At this time, His Royal Highness actually allowed himself to receive the Ghost Face Army???
And in Qufu?
Huang Degong hesitated slightly and said to the eunuch in front of him.
"Okay, you go back and report to His Highness, I understand!"
After finishing speaking, the eunuch bowed to Huang Degong in front of him.
Turning around and leaving, Huang Degong looked at the figure of the eunuch in front of him.
At this time, one member of the Ghost Face Army was already kneeling in front of Zhu Cixiang.
"Okay, you go tell Li Yan that Huang Degong has gone to receive you!"
"Yes! Your Highness!"
The Ghost Face Army soldiers left respectfully.
Soon, Huang De led thousands of cavalry and arrived in Qufu within a few hours.
Originally, when the people of Qufu City saw the arrival of imperial officers and soldiers, they thought it was another battle, but the result really surprised them.
After seeing General Huang Degong, the originally famous Ghost Faced Army actually opened the city gate and surrendered!!!
All the people in Qufu City looked at this scene in confusion. The scene in front of them was really... strange!
Just surrender like that???
There was no fight??
Huang Degong looked at the ghost-faced army in front of him, and his heart moved slightly, especially when he saw the leader, who felt vaguely familiar, Huang Degong probably knew who the ghost-faced army in front of him was!
