"These people really deserve to die! They are basically full of all five evils! Are they still trying to rebel?"
There was a hint of sneer in Song Xiance's eyes.
"Tell Mr. Zhu Qianhu that after digging out some more evidence from their mouths, don't kill them yet! Send them directly to His Highness the Crown Prince!!"
Song Xiance smiled slightly and said to a soldier of the Ghost Face Army on the side.
"What about the people from the four major families who were captured?"
"I'll report it to His Highness! I'm going to kill them all in public!"
Song Xiance's eyes flashed coldly.
"Yes! Sir!"
Song Xiance began to continue to arrest some wealthy households related to the four major families in Yanzhou City, and even the ghost-faced army began to be stationed in other places in Yanzhou Prefecture.
Some landowners in many counties were all arrested.
The reason is of course rebellion!
This behavior makes people who have some relationship with the four major families feel uneasy, while those who have no relationship with the four major families, or have even been bullied before, feel very happy.
Rebellion, damn it!
The soldiers quickly began to take action to arrest them.
What happened in Yanzhou City soon reached Zhu Cixiang's ears.
"oh?"
Zhu Cixiang was stunned for a moment, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
"That's it! Song Xiance did a good job!"
A smile appeared on Zhu Cixiang's face.
He looked at a guard in front of him and said.
"This is a great job of luring snakes out of their holes!"
Zhu Cixiang looked at the Jin Yiwei in front of him with a smile on his face.
Of course, Zhu Cixiang knew about the mobilization of the Ghost Face Army and approved it, but he did not know what Song Xiance wanted to do.
He didn't ask, because Zhu Liu was right beside him.
If he is really planning to do something detrimental to himself, Zhu Liu will definitely not let him go.
After all, Zhu Liu is the Jin Yiwei he obtained from the system, and he will definitely not betray him.
Therefore, Zhu Cixiang is very relieved about this!
Moreover, he had a vague guess in his mind that Song Xiance must be playing a game of chess. Sure enough, Yanzhou City was now considered to have been slain by Song Xiance.
After this battle, all the gentry and wealthy people in Yanzhou Prefecture will probably be wiped out, leaving nothing behind.
After all, rebellion involves the nine clans.
Even if the four major families do have some influence in the imperial court, who of those people would dare to speak for the rebels? Isn’t that looking for death?
It can even be said that everyone in the court will say that killing is good!
The key is that Song Xiance's moves can be said to have been upright. In addition to provoking, he did not force him in the whole process. He can only say that the four major families are too arrogant.
"Okay! Go tell Song Xiance that there is no need for the heads of the four major families to contribute to me. All those who participated in the rebellion will be implicated in the nine clans! 90% of the money collected this time will be turned over to the national treasury, and the remaining 10% will be given to me.
He used it to run Yanzhou, then took all the land back to the government and leased it to those who lost the land for cultivation, and only collected taxes!"
Zhu Cixiang pondered for a moment and said to the clerk in front of him.
In fact, what Zhu Cixi wanted to do most was to nationalize all the land.
Abolish all title deeds.
But now is not the time, we can only take it slowly step by step, nibbling away bit by bit!
Zhu Cixiong wrote an order beside him and handed it to the clerk beside him.
"Tell Song Xiance to do it well!"
"Yes! Your Highness!"
The clerk took the order from Zhu Cixiang's hand and said to Zhu Cixiang in front of him with a respectful look on his face.
Looking at the back of the clerk, Zhu Cixi felt a little better.
During this period, his income was not low.
First, the five million taels of silver from Zheng Zhilong have already been put into the warehouse, plus the five million taels obtained by Song Xiance from confiscating his house this time.
There are already tens of millions of taels of silver in his warehouse.
Although his consumption is indeed very large, tens of millions of taels of silver can already be used to do a lot of things, and there is finally no shortage of silver!
During this period, whether it was manufacturing ordnance, starting various schools, or repairing roads, there were many things that required money. There was even a scene where Zhu Cihong had only more than 100,000 taels of silver left in the warehouse.
This was the result of his previous crazy house raids, and Li Yan's ghost-faced army had already made a lot of money by raiding the Confucius mansion. Otherwise, he would have even more money.
The official in charge of the warehouse often complained to him, and he kept reassuring him, saying that the situation would soon be alleviated.
Now I can finally feel a lot better!
Thinking of this, the corners of Zhu Cixiang's mouth curled up slightly.
Song Xiance did a good job. This time he should be able to directly uproot the powerful gentry in Yanzhou Prefecture and other prefectures.
For various reasons, some powerful gentry still retain their power.
But Yanzhou Prefecture should be able to be completely emptied this time!
Thinking of this, the corners of Zhu Cixiang's mouth curled up slightly.
He looked at the memorial aside and continued to deal with some matters.
Song Xiance quickly received the order from His Highness the Crown Prince. It was exactly as he thought. His Highness the Crown Prince issued the order directly, implicating the nine clans! Even His Highness the Crown Prince did not even think of meeting the heads of the four major families!
A smile appeared on his face.
"Pass my order! All the members of the four major families will be escorted to the execution ground! They will be executed!"
Song Xiance said to the officer on the side.
"Yes! Sir!"
Yanzhou Prefecture, execution ground.
It was surrounded by people from Yanzhou City.
Everyone's eyes showed a look of expectation. You know, the person who will be beheaded today is very serious!
That is the real king of the entire Yanzhou Prefecture!
The uncrowned king!
There is plenty of money! And most of the entire Yanzhou Prefecture belongs to them!
Are you really going to be beheaded??
All the people in Yanzhou Prefecture have a trace of expectation in their eyes, but they are also afraid that their expectation will eventually turn into helplessness.
The prison van rolled slowly along the road.
The people on both sides of the road had a hint of fear in their eyes. Looking at the heads of the four major families on the prison car, fear flashed deep in their eyes.
There is no way, these four major families have been domineering in the entire Yanzhou Prefecture for many years.
No one knows how powerful they are, and no one dares to say bad things about them!
A long time ago, the prefect of Yanzhou Prefecture wanted to get to the bottom of a case and traced it to the four major families.
As a result, not long after, the prefect died inexplicably.
And soon, the imperial court sent a new magistrate, and the matter ended up being dropped. No one dared to continue the investigation. In Yanzhou, anything involving the four major families is not simple!
