The Jin Yiwei next to him took out a set of small knives from his body and began to cut open a small piece of Liu Yu's flesh.
"ah!"
Liu Yu let out a scream.
The Liu family on the side looked at the scene in front of them, and many of them who were timid were even scared to the point of peeing.
"If the rest of you know the whereabouts of the Liu family's property, you can report it to me. Otherwise, his fate will be your fate!"
Zhu Yi glanced at the people around him with cold eyes.
Soon, several people began to confess to Zhu Yilai.
It was easy for these Jin Yiwei to find the property left by the Liu family.
…………
Zhu Cixiang looked at the account book that Zhu Yi handed him.
Browsed through it a little bit.
Soon, a smile appeared on Zhu Cixiang's face. He looked at Huang Degong and Zhu Yihuai and said with a smile: "Not bad! I didn't expect that you rich people in Shunde Mansion are so rich!"
Zhu Cixi was also a little surprised. In the house of a landlord and bureaucrat in Shunde Prefecture, more than 300,000 taels of silver were confiscated, and nearly 500,000 dan of grain were confiscated. Such a large amount of grain was actually much more than the official warehouse!
Do you want to store so much food because you want to hoard it?
A cold light flashed deep in Zhu Cihong's eyes.
There is really no mistake in killing!
Then some jewelry, and acres of land.
To be honest, the land owned by the richest man in Shunde really surprised Zhu Cixiang.
There are actually hundreds of hectares of farmland. You know, one hectare of land is equivalent to about one hundred acres of fields. In other words, the Liu family actually occupies tens of thousands of acres of fields!
This is already a very exaggerated figure. You must know that the backer of the Liu family is just a mere minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs!
Although the Minister of Civil Service is indeed considered a high official!
But think about it, the family of a minister of official affairs is so powerful, what about the families of those ministers?
What about those noble families with titles?
Not to mention the homes of those princes!
Thinking of this, Zhu Cixiang sighed slightly in his heart.
The shortcomings of the imperial court are so long-lasting that it is difficult to recover!
Huang Degong and Zhu Yihuai next to them had stern expressions on their faces.
Amazing!
Is the house search completed so quickly?
These royal guards around His Royal Highness are really powerful!
At this time, Huang Degong on the side couldn't help but said to Zhu Cixiang in front of him: "Your Highness, the Jinyi guard you just had is a bit high in martial arts! I wonder who he studied under?"
"You mean Zhu Yi?"
Heng Hao smiled slightly, looked at Huang Degong in front of him and asked.
Huang Degong nodded, looking at Zhu Cihong in front of him with a hint of curiosity in his eyes.
"Zhu Yike doesn't have a master!"
Zhu Cixiang smiled slightly, and said calmly: "Every move he made was learned through killing! Walking between life and death, if his martial arts cannot be improved, he would have died long ago!"
After hearing Zhu Cixiang's words, General Huang Degong in front of him nodded thoughtfully.
Zhu Yihuai on the side was still in a daze, shocked by Jin Yiwei's power.
At this time, Zhu Cixiang looked at Zhu Yihuai in front of him calmly and said: "Master Zhu, I have already ransacked the Liu family. You don't need me to teach you about the next thing!"
"No need, no need! I know what to do!"
Of course Zhu Yihuai knew what Zhu Cihong was referring to!
At this time, he quickly said to Zhu Cixiang in front of him.
At this time, Zhu Cixiang in front of him said to Zhu Yihuai in front of him: "Also, regarding the land deeds and shop deeds obtained by copying the Zhu family this time, you can find an opportunity and sell them all! The price is about the same.
, only accept gold and silver.”
Zhu Cixiang said calmly to Zhu Yihuai.
"Understood! Your Highness!"
Zhu Yihuai quickly said to Zhu Cihong in front of him.
"General Huang Degong, do you have any thoughts on this encirclement and suppression of the intruders?"
At this time, Zhu Cixiang looked at General Huang Degong.
Huang Degong pondered for a moment, looked at Zhu Cixiang in front of him and said: "Your Highness, our army is not strong enough, and we currently have no way to confront the intruders head-on!"
Speaking of this, Huang Degong felt very helpless.
Although he didn't want to admit it, in the ten years since Chongzhen, the power of the intruders has become stronger year by year, and now they have an army of 200,000.
Moreover, the elites of the old battalion have experienced hundreds of battles and their combat effectiveness is extraordinary.
Even if Huang Degong's army faced the impact of the old battalion soldiers, there was no way to guarantee that they would win.
The imperial court has lost too many troops over the years!
Zhu Cixiang next to him smiled, looked at Huang Degong in front of him and said, "General, don't be impatient."
Hearing Zhu Cihong's words, Huang Degong was slightly stunned. There was a hint of hesitation in his eyes as he looked at Zhu Cihong in front of him.
"Our mission is not to annihilate the intruders. With the power we have now, it is a fool's errand to annihilate the intruders. It is simply impossible.
Our main task is to harass and tie down the main force of the intruders, so as to buy time for the imperial court to move south."
Zhu Cixiang calmly looked at Huang Degong in front of him and said.
Hearing Zhu Cixiang's words, Huang Degong was stunned for a moment. There was a hint of hesitation in his eyes. He looked at Zhu Cixiang in front of him and said, "This..."
"No need to think too much."
With a trace of helplessness on his face, Zhu Cixiang looked at Huang Degong in front of him and said: "At present, the imperial power has suffered serious losses. Zuo Liangyu has an army of 200,000, but the imperial court cannot mobilize it at all. Those troops in the south are defending the city.
That's okay. Let's send them to suppress the bandits?
It's simply impossible. The imperial court doesn't have much power at hand! There's no way to defend these places. If we want to suppress the thieves, at least now we don't have enough power!
Moreover, the most critical issue is that now the imperial court has financial problems and is unable to suppress thieves and regain lost territory!"
Quite proud of Zhu Cixi's words, a hint of loneliness flashed in Huang Degong's eyes.
But it could not be defended. The imperial court suffered too great a loss in military power and financial resources.
"General Huang Degong, so my mission this time is to involve as much as possible the rhythm of the bandit army's attack on the city, and then conserve my own strength as much as possible!"
"Understood! Your Highness the Crown Prince!"
After finishing speaking, Zhu Cihong looked at Huang Degong and Zhu Yihuai in front of him and said.
"General Huang, Lord Zhu, it's getting late. I'll go back and rest first. You guys can chat slowly!"
"Congratulations to Your Highness the Crown Prince!"
The two of them quickly bowed to Zhu Cihong.
Zhu Cihong turned around and left Zhu Yihuai's mansion.
Zhu Yihuai and Huang Degong looked at Zhu Cihong's back.
"Master Zhu, what do you think of His Highness the Crown Prince?"
At this time, Huang Degong suddenly asked Zhu Yihuai in front of him.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has the style of becoming an ancestor!"
Zhu Yihuai said with emotion to Huang Degong on the side.
Huang Degong was stunned for a moment, turned around, and asked Zhu Yihuai in front of him with a curious look in his eyes: "Why did Mr. Zhu say this?"
