Chapter 32

Li Yunze was really tired.

This time I went to the south of the Yangtze River, from the time I left the Chaoyang Gate to the present, there were all kinds of endless things along the way.

From Chaoguan to Salt Affairs, from Xungui to Donglin Party, from local civil and military to subordinate officials, from rectifying guards to blood alliance cases, from typhoons to Qingtian and so on.

When I came to Jiangnan, there was almost no reasonable good thing.

The whole south of the Yangtze River has rotted into a swamp, and it is a bad thing to go everywhere.

In the dead of night, when he was still in the state of a sage, he also thought about simply pretending that he couldn't see anything, and just like that old Shiquan who just cared about having fun.

To get massive amounts of supplies from the modern world, at least on the surface, it is enough to keep Daming alive.

But he really can't do it.

It looks good on the surface, but it's still rotten at the root.

What's more, because of Li Yunze's large-scale supply of materials, the degree of decay will be even more bottomless.

Those who deserve to suffer are still suffering.

We can't let the new army equipped with AK to chug those poor people who can't survive and join the bandits.

The most irresponsible words in the world are 'I can do it myself. '

The second is 'You can do it if you want. '

The bull that was blown out at the beginning must be brought back no matter what.

Not for anything else, not to achieve the goal, it is purely the bottom line of being a good person.

The thighs of his pommel horse were worn out with calluses. After working so hard for so long, he finally made some achievements, and gave the many people in the south of the Yangtze River who were overwhelmed and gasping for air a little more chance to breathe.

Now, it's time to do the last major event of going to the south of the Yangtze River.

He wants to rectify the clan!

Yingtian Palace, Fengtian Hall.

Seeing a group of princes below shouting loudly, Li Yunze only had one sentence in his mind at this moment.

'Life is impermanent, the large intestine wraps the small intestine. '

A group of princes, chattering like shrews, kept accusing Li Yunze, saying that he was ashamed of his ancestors and attacked his relatives.

The reason is of course not for Fu Wang's intercession, but for themselves.

In fact, at the beginning, the kings were very honest.

There is no lack of etiquette that should be had, and the attitude is very sincere.

But when Li Yunze mentioned the phrase 'rectify the princes' mansions and give them land', the pot was blown up immediately.

When it comes to Fu Wang, the kings are just helping to say a few good words in face.

But when Li Yunze extended his demonic claws to their fields, he turned his face on the spot.

Seeing all the foaming people in front of him, wishing to spray him to death with their mouths, Li Yunze smiled cheerfully.

Reaching out to take the tea bowl from Wang Chengen's hand, he took a sip and smashed the tea bowl on the ground.

The gate of Fengtian Temple was suddenly knocked open, and a large group of Jinyiwei and Dongchang fanzi swarmed in.

They surrounded the kings, all holding knives in their hands with no expression on their faces.

Fengtian Temple, which was originally as noisy as a vegetable market, became quiet in an instant.

The veins on his forehead twitched, Li Yunze took a deep breath and stood up.

Looking around at the kings, "Are you drifting away, or I can't lift the sword?"

"During the recent period, you haven't heard anything about what happened in various places in the south of the Yangtze River?"

Stepping down from the alchemy steps, Li Yunze shook his sleeves, "Do you know how many villains have been killed, and you want to join in?"

Facing Li Yunze's repeated questions, Zhu Huakui, the ninth king of Chu, became angry, "We are the clan, appointed by the Taizu! Could it be that Your Majesty wants to slaughter the clan! Kill us if you have the ability!"

With someone taking the lead, the aura of the kings rose again, and they immediately started making noise.

It is clearly recorded in the "Regulations of Suzerain and Vassal" in the Ming Dynasty that the vassal king is not allowed to leave the city where the fiefdom is located.

The fact that the kings are able to gather here today is entirely because Li Yunze ordered them to come in the name of an imperial decree.

When Li Yunze was still busy in Huating, the kings who arrived in Yingtian Mansion one after another had already had many exchanges in private.

The emperor swept with iron and blood all the way, rectifying and rectifying.But anyone with a discerning eye can see that in the end, they must attack the feudal lords.

They have already agreed that when the time comes, they must advance and retreat together.

So now that Zhu Huakui came out, all the feudal lords began to wave their flags and shout to strengthen their momentum.

Li Yunze, who squinted his eyes, looked at Zhu Huakui, who was spitting all over his eyes.

According to the relevant records, what interests Li Yunze the most is what Zhang Xianzhong said.

'Take all the gold and silver in the palace, each of which is in the millions, and the chariot can carry hundreds of cars.There is so much money that cannot be guarded, Zhu Huzi is really mediocre! '

Zhang Xianzhong attacked Wuchang, and the local civil and military forces asked the king of Chu to donate money and pay to drive back the bandit army.

And Zhu Huakui pointed to his gold-covered chair and said, "This can be an army, he has nothing!" '

As a result, Wuchang Mansion was captured, he himself was thrown into the Yangtze River to feed the fish, and all his wealth of millions became Zhang Xianzhong's spoils of war.

Another thing is that this guy was so bold that he actually beat Huguang Governor Zhao Kehuai to death in public.

That was the governor, a real court official, who was beaten to death by the feudal lord for trivial matters.

Such an idiot, there is no use for keeping it except wasting food.

Li Yunze raised his hand, looked at his own palm with clear lines, and slapped Zhu Huakui hard on the face with all his strength!

'Snapped! ' With a sound, the noise of the kings stopped abruptly again.

It's not over yet, Li Yunze stepped forward and reached out to grab Zhu Huakui's collar, "papapapapa~~~" bowing left and right.

Dozens of big contestants passed by, and Zhu Huakui's chubby face was no different from a pig's head.

Casually leaving it on the ground, Li Yunze turned around and went to get the Xiuchun Knife in Luo Yangxing's hand.

Luo Yangxing stammered to dissuade him, "Long live, long live. Let me come, don't dirty the hands of Long live."

Li Yunze turned his head to look at Cao Bianjiao again, "Where's my whip?"

With the horsewhip in hand, Li Yunze stepped forward and lashed at Zhu Huakui, "Let you scream, make you crazy! Daming is going to be gone for a feudal king like shit, you are nothing! Shout out to me, let you scream, let you scream!"

I kept smoking until I was out of breath before letting go.

As for Zhu Huakui, there is already less air in and more air out.

All the kings were frightened, they really didn't expect that they would be beaten badly even as princes.

Uh, it is reasonable for the emperor to beat up the prince.

After taking a few breaths and recovering, Li Yunze looked at Luo Yangxing, "Where is this letter about colluding with King Fu to plot against him?"

Luo Yangxing quickly saluted, "Write it now, at most a quarter of an hour."

Pointing at Zhu Huakui, he instructed, "Convict the blood alliance case and send them to Guan with Fu Wang. When the time comes, send them on the road together."

Several Dongchang fans immediately stepped forward and dragged Zhu Huakui out of Fengtian Hall like a dead pig.

Looking at the long bloodstains falling on the gold bricks on the ground, the kings who were screaming and screaming before were completely dumbfounded.

'The emperor really dared to kill him.Isn't he afraid that he will have no face to meet his ancestors in the future? '

It was Zhu Youjian's business to see Zhu Yuanzhang, so what did he have to do with Li Yunze.

Li Yunze waved the horsewhip in his hand, and looked around the kings, no one dared to look at him.

"Stop talking nonsense." He straightened his face. "I said, listen. Those who agree can go back to the fief, and those who disagree can stay and accompany King Fu and King Chu on the road. Understand?"

The kings were silent.

It's not that I don't understand, but that I was frightened and didn't know what to say.

"I want to revise the vassal regulations. From now on, all clan lumber will be halved, all granted land will be returned to the inner government, all salt quotations will be abolished, and all shops, business, mansions and manors will be returned to the inner government. The goods are counted and arranged, and only 1 taels can be left at most, and the rest will be returned to the inner government."

"All the titles below General Fengguo will be abolished. The titles will be passed on and will be downgraded by three levels in each generation."

Although they were afraid, the kings couldn't help but loudly objected to such a harsh request.

'Snapped! '

Li Yunze whipped his horsewhip, Fengtian Hall became quiet again.

All the kings were afraid to go on the road with King Fu.

After the whip is finished, there is also some benefit fee.

"Everyone in the clan can make a living by themselves, and they can do whatever they want. Study and take the imperial examination, farm and do business, go to sea and run a merchant ship, even if they want to be the king of the mountain. Except for the vassal kings who are not allowed to leave the fief, the rest of the clan no longer has any actions. limit."

"All clans will be given a one-time living subsidy by the inner government according to the number of generals below Fengguo. Each person has 50 liang of silver, [-] shi of grain, [-] jin of salt, and [-] acres of Huangzhuang. It is considered a buyout title."

The number of registered clans in the Ming Dynasty is as high as more than [-].

The number below General Fengguo is the largest.

According to the standard proposed by Li Yunze, it is estimated that several million taels of buyout money will be spent.

But the advantage is that you can completely get rid of the heavy burden in the future.

General Fengguo and above can maintain a decent life even if the Lumi is halved, but there is no way to be as extravagant as before.

As for the downgrading of Chengjue by three levels every generation, it is even more drastic.

Except for the eldest son who inherited the throne, the other sons of the kings are directly the generals of Fengguo, and if they want to pass it down, they will simply disappear.

If any family breaks the inheritance, it will be directly expelled.

Since Li Yunze had gathered all the kings in Yingtian Mansion, he didn't intend to give them any room for change.

"No favors, no negotiation."

He turned back and sat down on the dragon chair, fiddling with the whip in his hand, "If you want to be obedient, stand to the left. If you don't want to, stand to the right."

The kings remained silent, neither going to the left nor to the right.

"Silence is golden when playing with me here."

Li Yunze laughed angrily, "I don't want to choose, right? Okay, then I will choose for you."

Looking at Wang Cheng'en, the great eunuch walked up to the kings holding a stick with a bamboo stick in it.

"Everyone smokes one, and the short ones are directly sent to accompany the King of Fu. When the time comes, I will send you on the road and get rid of the nobles by the way."

"Long live!"

Xiang Wang Zhu Yiming shouted in grief and indignation, "They are born from the same root, so why rush each other!"

"My roots are the hundreds of millions of people in Ming Dynasty."

Hearing this, Li Yunze shook his head again and again and laughed, "Apart from extravagance and lust, what use are you to use up the people? If I hadn't become the emperor, I would have rebelled a long time ago and turned you all into Iraqis!"

After he finished laughing, he took a new teacup and drank it all in one gulp, "You choose your own path."
