Chapter 80 Parade and fishing plan, kill them all.

After grinding their teeth for a long time, the two finally decided on the distribution of benefits for the sea trip.

Zhu Zhangui paid half of the ship and manpower, and gave Zheng He a batch of goods at the cost price.

After Zheng He came back, after paying the principal of the goods, Zhu Zhangui was divided into four levels of benefits.

After signing the contract in black and white, Zhu Zhangui happily sent Zheng He away.

"Old Zheng, don't leave in a hurry! Wait until I get married and drink the wedding wine before leaving."

Standing at the gate of the East Palace, he waved off Zheng He, and Zhu Zhangui went back to watch the excitement humming a little tune.

Three days passed in a blink of an eye.

As soon as the eastern sun emerged, the door of Jin Yiwei was slowly pushed open.

Afterwards, a large number of Jin Yiwei came out sullenly and stood on both sides of the road, maintaining order.

"Crash, crash, crash!"

Just as the brocade guards on both sides stood up, the sound of iron chains resounded from the dark doorway.

A prisoner wearing a prison uniform with a numb expression was escorted out.

"My lord, the prisoner has already proven himself!"

After thousands of prisoners were escorted out, a Jin Yiwei came to Ji Gang and handed Ji Gang a roster in his hand.

Taking the roster handed over by his subordinates, Ji Gang picked up a cinnabar pen and drew a cross on it every time he turned a page.

As the last page was swiped, Ji Gang dropped the cinnabar pen in his hand and glanced at the officials of the Ministry of Punishment next to him.

The officials of the Ministry of Criminal Justice nodded with apologetic smiles, took a step forward, and said coldly, "All the prisoners have been verified and will parade through the streets for half a day until they arrive at Caishikou in the south of the city, and they will be executed!"

As the verdict was delivered, there were deafening cries among thousands of prisoners.

Some people even shouted injustice.

An old man in the lead pointed at Ji Gang and cursed.

"Ji Gang dog thief, you are so wronged and innocent, you will die badly, the old man is waiting for you below, waiting for the day when you are liquidated, hahaha."

"Noisy!"

Ji Gang snorted coldly, and Jin Yiwei, who was guarding the prisoner, whipped wildly when he lifted the whip.

There were screams in an instant.

"Take away Parade!"

After the chaos was suppressed, Ji Gang waved his hand coldly, and the prisoners walked slowly towards the street under the escort of Jin Yiwei.

At the front of the line, several officials from the Ministry of Punishment beat the gong and read out the crimes of these prisoners.

The people in the city who were alarmed by the movement took to the streets one after another, looking at the tired prisoners with scars all over their bodies, discussing in low voices.

"I heard that they are all rebels. I don't know what they did?"

"You don't know that, do you?"

"A few days ago, His Highness Taisun was ambushed and killed when he returned to the palace. If His Highness Taisun's guards were not capable, I am afraid that he would be in trouble."

"And these prisoners were implicated in it, and some of them were assassins who were assassinated."

"Tsk tsk tsk, what audacity to attack and kill the emperor's grandson around the palace, I really don't know how to write death."

"Who said no?"

"His Royal Highness is such a good person. Many poor people in the city were recruited by him to work on the construction site of the shop and gave them food."

"Those disabled veterans are even more easily arranged by him to work, so that these veterans who have shed blood for the country will not be unable to find a job because of their broken limbs and drag their families down to starvation."

"Indeed, the next door to me is a soldier. His daughter-in-law died due to dystocia, leaving behind two children and his mother. The whole family was counting on him, but unexpectedly, a leg was broken. Selling some cooking cakes, I am afraid that the whole family will starve to death."

"Later, I heard that he was called into the craftsman camp by His Royal Highness, where he sat there and swung his hammer every day. Not only did he take care of three meals a day, but he also got three coins a month. The two children were also sent to the academy to study. Look at it. I was so envious that I wanted to break my own leg and go to the artisan camp."

"It's just you...Come on? You just broke all three legs, and people don't want you. His Royal Highness is asking them to work, but in fact he is looking for a reason to support them and thank them for their dedication to the court. You Those who have never even held a knife, just want to enjoy this treatment, go ahead and dream!"

"Death to the traitor!"

While the crowd was watching the prisoners being paraded and discussing in low voices, a group of children who didn't know where they came from, carrying stones and feces in their hands, hurled wildly at the prisoners.

One of the little guys with thick heads and thick brains even took a ladle of dung and threw it at Xu Bin who was walking in the front.

The little guy yelled and cursed while splashing.

"His Majesty Sun is such a good person. Every day, he asks my father to bring me candy, pays my family back money, and allows me to eat and study. How dare you assassinate him? I'll kill you."

"That is, kill him. If there is no His Royal Highness, my sister will be sold to someone else as a slave. Kill him, kill him."

Most of these children are children of disabled soldiers.

In order to take care of these veterans who cannot survive due to disabilities, Zhu Zhangui's artisan battalion will specially recruit these people, let them do some easy work, and give them a chance to survive and support their families.

For their children, Zhu Zhangui will hire a special teacher to teach them how to read and write.

Zhu Zhangui did this on the one hand to sympathize with these disabled veterans, on the other hand he wanted to use this to improve his reputation, and then let the children of these veterans learn and become his most loyal backbone in the future.

"Why? Why is this so?"

In a carriage in the distance, Zhu Zhanji grabbed Sun Ruowei tightly to prevent her from being impulsive.

Originally, he didn't want to bring Sun Ruowei, but Sun Ruowei forced him to die, so he had no choice but to take Sun Ruowei to watch from a distance.

"Why, we have all given up our hatred? Why do you want to kill them all?"

Sun Ruowei looked at Zhu Zhanji angrily.

Zhu Zhanji didn't speak, he didn't know how to answer Sun Ruowei.

The whole thing happened so strangely.

Sun Ruowei and Xu Bin didn't know about the assassination of Zhu Zhangui at all. It was only after Jin Yiwei surrounded them that they realized that something might have happened.

Then Ji Gang didn't listen to their explanation at all, and the battle broke out suddenly.

People died on both sides, and the conflict suddenly deepened.

The old man was uncharacteristically merciless and directly acquiesced in the execution of these people.

To be honest, if it wasn't for Sun Ruowei's relationship with him, Zhu Zhanji can be sure that Sun Ruowei must be among the prisoners at this time.

"Ruowei, don't take revenge for us, live well."

Xu Bin, who was thrown by the child with stones and dung, looked at the carriage as if feeling something, and yelled.

Hearing this cry, Sun Ruowei couldn't bear it anymore, pushed Zhu Zhanji away, and rushed out of the carriage to the crowd of prisoners.

When Sun Ruowei rushed out, it was as if a signal had been released.

At both ends of the street, a large number of masked people suddenly rushed out of the crowd watching the excitement.

Ji Gang, who was leading the team, looked at the masked man rushing out, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up.

"The fish has finally taken the bait, and this time it can be wiped clean."
