Ming Dynasty: Every day, Zhu Yuanzhang is in trouble

Chapter 95 Corpses everywhere!

The cold wind howled and the sky was gloomy. Zhu Yuanzhang's frosty voice immediately made many people shiver.

Where is the joyful atmosphere that greeted Zhu Yuanzhang?

Many people’s calves are weak!

After Li Shanchang heard Zhu Yuanzhang's words, he knelt down without saying a word, very neatly.

The dignified Korean Duke, in front of Zhu Yuanzhang, lost his previous self-confidence and his superiority in front of others.

Ding Bin, Xue Xiang, Li Cunyi and others did not dare to neglect and knelt down one after another.

For a time, none of the many officials in Zhongdu City dared to stand, and everyone fell to their knees.

Even those Fengyang folks who went to greet Zhu Yuanzhang with flower drums tied around their waists and very festive clothes also knelt on the ground.

"Your superiors, this... this is really a sign of the ignorance of the people under your command.

I don’t know how many highnesses came here and offended several highnesses. They deserve to die!

It is actually a capital crime! "

Even at this time, Li Shanchang still felt that the reason why Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry.

It was the people on his side who were blind, and for some reason they captured Zhu Yuanzhang's own son and sent him to Zhongdu City for labor service.

Still being treated like this.

The rest is not a big deal in his opinion.

"Shit! Shit!"

After listening to Li Shanchang's words, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately cursed angrily.

"Are we talking about our son?

We are talking about Zhongdu City!

Still blind? Let’s see how well you caught them! Great catch!

If you hadn't captured several of our sons and brought them to Zhongdu City, we wouldn't have known that you dared to be so obedient!

Such cruelty to our people, our people!

So far, you guys have been kept in the dark! ! "

Zhu Yuanzhang's voice was terrifyingly cold.

"How did we tell you? How did you promise us?!

And what are you doing now?

Do you deserve our trust in you? ! "

Li Shanchang was stunned when he heard this.

This...why is Zhu Yuanzhang really angry about this?

Immediately, he understood in his heart.

Zhu Yuanzhang was not angry because of this incident. The biggest reason was because he had his son arrested.

It's just that it's not easy for him to say it directly.

So let’s take the experience of these people in Zhongdu City as an example and make use of the topic.

As expected, Zhu Yuanzhang was still so hypocritical, talking about caring for the people all day long.

But in fact, the only thing he cared about most was his son.

Of course, these are just thoughts in my mind, but I won’t say them out loud.

He quickly admitted his mistake and said: "Your Majesty, I am really wrong, I really shouldn't be like this.

Lao Chen did not do exactly what you asked.

It's not that I don't want to do it, it's actually... If everything is implemented, the money and food will be consumed too much, and the construction of Zhongdu City will be too slow.

Ming Dynasty has only been established for a few years, and money is everywhere.

The old minister also wanted to save some money and food, so he used the blade to cut the steel.

Moreover, in all the dynasties and dynasties, how can there be no fatalities in the construction of such large projects?

Even if... even if the veteran has tried his best to make people do a good job, there will inevitably be some omissions.

There are too many people to take care of.

In the upper position, what the veteran said is the truth.

The old minister really tried his best to help His Majesty repair the Zhongdu City.

If there is a lie in what you say, let the old minister be struck by thunder! "

"hehe!"

Facing Li Shanchang's words, Zhu Yuanzhang sneered.

"Too much money was spent? People died in every dynasty?

Did we ask you to compare before? !

What did we tell you before?

We said we would rather spend more money and food to slow down the construction of Zhongdu City, but also take care of all these laborers.

I want you to implement everything we have given you!

But what about you?

You took everything we said as fart!

How about a thunderbolt?

How did you say this? ! "

"I...I deserve death for my crime, and let the people of the world misunderstand Your Majesty.

This is Chen's fault.

From now on, I will definitely let the people of the world understand that these evil things in Zhongdu City are all caused by my own initiative.

I am a minister who has violated the instructions of your superiors.

So much so that he did such a thing.

These things have nothing to do with you, superior, and are all my fault.

I will take full responsibility for these things. "

Li Shanchang knelt on the ground. At this time, he didn't defend anything, he just admitted his mistake.

He knew that there was no need to explain to Zhu Yuanzhang in such an angry state.

The more you explain, the worse it gets.

It would be better to admit everything directly.

As long as you have a good attitude, there will be no major problems in the future and you will be able to pass the test safely.

Of course, what is more important is one's own status, which is displayed here.

Zhu Yuanzhang did not dare to embarrass himself too much.

Even if he makes things difficult for himself, it doesn't matter.

As long as he builds the central capital by himself, Zhu Yuanzhang will move the capital there in the future.

That's okay.

For him, this is a huge victory.

In his opinion, Zhu Yuanzhang was just getting angry and killing a few more people to vent his anger.

As for Zhongdu City, it is still very stable.

I have already put so much effort into this.

The imperial court spent so much manpower and material resources, spent so much money, and killed so many people.

Even if Zhu Yuanzhang was dissatisfied, he still had to move the capital here.

Otherwise, the loss will be even greater.

It was even more difficult for him to accept.

He knew Zhu Yuanzhang's character on these matters very well.

But the only pity is that I originally thought that I could make a big splash with the help of Zhongdu City.

Make Zhu Yuanzhang happy.

He once again returned to Zhongshu Province to become prime minister.

Now it seems that there is absolutely no hope...

"Bear it all? Can you afford it!

So many people have died, so many people have been destroyed, and their families have been destroyed. How many heads do you have, can you afford it?

It has nothing to do with me, it’s all your fault, Li Shanchang?

Do you think that among the people in the world, you are the first person to be scolded when this matter is mentioned?

no! It’s me, Zhu Yuanzhang. !

You bastards will be blamed by many common people for all the nefarious things you have done! ! "

The more Zhu Yuanzhang talked, the angrier he became.

How could he not see that at this moment, Li Shanchang was kneeling down and admitting his mistake?

But in fact, he didn't realize the mistake he made at all!

I still don’t care about these people who died!

Zhu Yuanzhang strode to the piled straw and pulled off the straw.

The corpse, which had long been frozen to death, was exposed.

These corpses are all people who died here recently from last night to now.

If it were in the past, people arranged by Zhongdu City would take the people who died that day and bury them outside Zhongdu City every night.

But now because Zhu Yuanzhang is coming, the corpses of these imprisoned and dead laborers are parked here and are not transported out.

I saw these corpses, each one was too miserable to look at.

The clothes are ragged, the skin is rough, and there are many cracks from the cold.

There are thick calluses on my hands and feet.

Many of them had various injuries on their bodies, which looked shocking.

Most of these injuries were caused by being beaten.

"Come! Come! Look, give us a good look!

Is this something you can afford?

What do you have to bear for us?

Killing your whole family is not enough! ! ! "

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were scarlet as he looked at Li Shanchang and asked angrily.

His expression looked extremely scary.

"Come! Look at them again! Look at them again!!

Look at what they have done to you! ! ! "

Zhu Yuanzhang strode to the side where many people with shabby clothes, sallow faces and thin muscles were crowded together and were working hard.

Pointing at them, he looked at Li Shanchang and roared.

"This is human!

We are the people of Ming Dynasty!

Not an animal!

Not even the remnants of Beiyuan! !

How could I be treated like this by you? !

Are you telling me that you will bear all the responsibility? Can you afford it?

How many lives? ! ! "

Zhu Yuanzhang was so excited that his eyes were about to burst out with fire.

The anger that had been suppressed for so long, at this moment, finally could no longer be suppressed.

It erupted violently like a volcano.

His voice was filled with endless anger, his body was trembling slightly, and his whole body was filled with murderous intent!

The many officials kneeling here did not care about the dirt on the ground.

They all put their heads on the cold ground, like quails!

Li Shanchang also stopped talking. He knew that the more he spoke at this time, the more mistakes he would make.

It's like adding fuel to the fire.

After Zhu Yuanzhang roared, he came to Li Shanchang in a few steps, staring at Li Shanchang with his blood-red eyes.

He raised his foot fiercely and kicked Li Shanchang hard on the shoulder.

Li Shanchang, who was kneeling there, was kicked to the ground!

The man slid back three feet and stopped sliding after bumping into Ding Bin, Li Cunyi and others who were kneeling behind him.

Zhu Yuanzhang's kick was full of anger.

Today, Zhu Yuanzhang is in his prime and has a strong body.

It's the emperor on horseback again.

When he followed Guo Zixing, he personally led the troops into battle and killed those on the front line.

At this time, you can imagine how heavy this kick is!

Li Shanchang, who had always kept his composure, was kicked so hard that he screamed.

I just felt as if my shoulder had been kicked off.

It even hurts my neck.

Li Shanchang was completely stunned by this kick.

After seeing Zhu Yuanzhang furious, he knew that Zhu Yuanzhang would not let him go easily.

There will definitely be some action.

But he didn't expect that Zhu Yuanzhang would still be so unwilling to forgive even though he had already knelt down to admit his mistake in public!

How dare you hit yourself in public!

He is so outrageous!

I have followed Zhu Yuanzhang in front of and behind the horse, and I have worked hard for many years, but I have never been beaten by Zhu Yuanzhang.

At most, it was nothing more than a reprimand.

But today, just because of these humble labors, does Zhu Chongba deserve to make such a fuss and get so angry?

He had already admitted his mistake and knelt down, showing such humility gave him enough face!

But how dare he humiliate himself like this in public!

Where can I put the face of a dignified Korean father? !

Does anyone do anything like this? !

Li Cunyi, Ding Bin, and Li You knelt on the ground and quickly supported Li Shanchang.

I want to help Li Shanchang up and let him continue to kneel.

As a result, before he could be helped up, Zhu Yuanzhang had already stepped over.

He raised his big foot and kicked Li Shanchang shamelessly again!

Ignoring Li Shanchang's screams, he kicked him four or five times in succession.

He kicked one side of Li Shanchang's face until it was swollen and all his teeth were knocked out.

Zhu Yuanzhang bent down and held the collar of the dazed Li Shanchang's neck with one hand.

Drag him forward.

"Come! Come! Show us your Korean father-in-law!"

Take a good look!

How many lives are these!

These are all good sons and daughters of our Ming Dynasty, our people!

It's because of you that they died!

Suffered such a big sin!

It has ruined countless lives!

They did not die at the hands of the Tatars when the Tatars were there!

Our Ming Dynasty was established, and our Han Dynasty was established!

We drove out the Tartars and restored China, but they died at the hands of our own people!

He died building the central capital for us!

Look at the evil you have done!

They are all real people!

They are all the backbone of the family!

He is someone else's son, someone else's husband, and someone else's father!

Originally, they could survive very well!

Not to mention how good life is, at least I can survive!

But now, they are all dead!

It is because of the existence of you people who care so little about human life that they died!

These people were bullied by those Yuan Tatars when they were still there.

Being persecuted by corrupt officials, squires and landlords who expropriated excessive taxes, life was worse than death!

Now that the Ming Dynasty has been established, they are still treated like this and have such a fate!

Then we drove out the Tartars and restored China. What did we restore? !

Knowing that this was the capital city being repaired, those who didn’t know it thought it was Yuan Tatar who was back!

By doing this, what is the difference between us and those Yuan Tartars? !

Are you worthy of our trust in you?

Is it worthy of the high-ranking official and generous salary you enjoy, and worthy of the title of Korean father-in-law?

Is it worthy of so many people?

Who are you worthy of? ! ! ”    Zhu Yuanzhang’s eyes were spitting fire, he pulled Li Shanchang’s collar at the back of his neck and walked forward.

Li Shanchang followed staggeringly, unable to straighten up, as if he was dragging a dead dog!

"Give us a good look!

Look at these people you don't care about!

How long have we just lived a good life, and now we have forgotten our roots?

Have you forgotten why you got up to fight the Tatars in the first place, and why you joined the rebel army?

It’s because the Tatars are cruel and unkind and don’t treat us as human beings!

It’s because too many people have died, they can’t live anymore, and they are desperate!

If you don't rebel, the Tatars will die!

Only then did he start to fight back!

How many years have passed and you have forgotten?

Have you forgotten what life was like back then?

Have you forgotten what you said before?

Doesn’t your conscience hurt? !

Aren't you afraid that one day, these people will not be able to survive and will fight back, chop off your head, Li Shanchang, and overthrow our Ming Dynasty? !

We tell you over and over again, cherish the power of the people and love the people!

Our Ming Dynasty built the capital, which is different from other dynasties!

It is better to be slower, to spend more money and food, to build the capital smaller than to use it to death!

You promised us well. We asked so many people, and they all said that Li Shanchang did a good job.

Hear our words in your heart!

We also thought that you, Li Shanchang, was someone who knew what we were thinking, that you were our old brother and knew how to do things!

But you motherfucker, is this what you do?

You motherfucker, kneel down for us! "

The more Zhu Yuanzhang talked, the angrier he became, and his eyes were so scarlet that they seemed to be bleeding.

He dragged Li Shanchang to the piles of corpses of laborers covered with straw, and kicked Li Shanchang in the crook of his leg.

He kicked Li Shanchang until he knelt here.

“They are the ones you should kneel to!

It is they who should admit your mistake! Not us! "

Li Shanchang, who was in pain all over, still looked a little confused when he looked at the piles of corpses piled up in front of him.

Extremely unbelievable.

He really didn't expect that he would be treated like this by Zhu Yuanzhang today.

And the cause was actually the people who died because of these Xiuzhongdu!

He didn't notice these people at all and thought they were consumables!

These lowly mud-legged people have the least value in life.

Over the past few days, he had seen countless corpses like this, but he had never been touched by them.

I just feel like I’m dead and there’s nothing to say.

They could die to repair the central capital and die for Li Shanchang's plan. They deserved to die and were honored to die!

But how could I have imagined that I would be treated like this by Zhu Yuanzhang today because of these people!

The mud-legged people who had been ignored by him in the past had actually become heavier than a thousand kilograms each at this time.

I want to suppress him until he can't breathe!

Although he was extremely confused, he still didn't believe that Zhu Yuanzhang would be so angry at himself and deal such a heavy blow to him because of these people.

I think this is just Zhu Yuanzhang's excuse.

The real reason was that the people on his side arrested his son.

He was sent to the city of Zhongdu to serve as a laborer.

That's why Zhu Yuanzhang got so angry and mobilized his troops.

What people? What Ming people?

They are all just excuses for Zhu Yuanzhang!

What do you mean by forgetting your roots after so many years?

When did he forget his roots?

When Li Shanchang started, he wasn't such a jerk, right?

But he didn't dare to say any of these words at this time.

After kicking Li Shanchang to the ground, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was wearing a dragon robe, also knelt down directly in front of the corpses.

"We...we, Zhu Yuanzhang, have admitted our mistake to you! I will apologize to you!"

We didn't expect that these people were so brave!

In just a few years, these brothers who conquered the world together have changed so much.

I no longer treat people as human beings.

It's unreasonable to be so obsequious to us.

This is all our fault..."

Zhu Yuanzhang shed tears as he spoke.

In front of these ragged and miserable people, who in the eyes of Li Shanchang, Ding Bin and others were just consumables and could be manipulated at will, they kowtowed three times solemnly.

Li Shanchang was stunned.

After being stunned, he wisely followed Zhu Yuanzhang and kowtowed three times.

But this time, he was very reluctant to kowtow.

I feel it's completely unnecessary.

These people are dead when they die, they are just dead useless losers.

As for such a big fight?

Zhu Yuanzhang kowtowed to the corpses, stood up, and stretched out his hand to pull the collar of Li Shanchang's neck.

Then, like dragging a dog to death, he was dragged to the shack that was extremely dirty, with draft everywhere, and so many people crowded together.

This time Li Shanchang learned to be smarter.

There was no need for Zhu Yuanzhang to lift his foot and kick him again, he quickly followed and knelt on the ground.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who had already raised his foot, kicked him again before taking his foot back.

"We are Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty, the one who wants to build Zhongdu.

He is also the person you have scolded countless times in your heart.

Here we come!

Came a little late!

There have been so many people and so much suffering.

Let’s apologize to you..."

Zhu Yuanzhang stood here, looking at these tortured people, many of whom were almost tortured, and looked unrecognizable.

He bowed deeply.

Admit your mistake out loud.

“We didn’t know about this in the past, we just thought that this central capital was just like we ordered.

I can give you food and clothing, give you some money, and give you medicine to treat your illness..."

Who could have imagined that it would turn out like this!

This is our fault, and I admit it to you.

We must also give you an explanation for the matter in Zhongdu City! "

The scene was extremely quiet. Many people who were captured for labor service were very excited when they saw this scene in front of them. They saw this man in a dragon robe who called himself Zhu Yuanzhang and saluted them and admitted his mistake.

I just feel like this is in a dream, full of unreality.

What did they see?

They actually met the emperor?

A son of the emperor stayed with them for so long and received the same treatment?

The emperor also saluted them and admitted his mistake...

This...is this true?

However, after seeing the many arrogant and powerful people in the past, they simply couldn't afford to offend the many servants and the big shots.

At this time, everyone was kneeling on the ground, not daring to breathe. After the scene, they felt that they were not dreaming.

The emperor of Ming Dynasty is really here!

The emperor of Ming Dynasty is willing to make the decision for them and give them this tone!

It turned out that he and others had scolded the wrong person in their hearts. It was not that the emperor did not take their lives seriously.

It's the people below who are doing so in both positive and negative ways. They do one thing on the surface and another behind the scenes. Don't treat them as human beings.

Think about the suffering that I have suffered these past few days, which is as dark as the sun.

Then look at the officials of Zhongdu City who are kneeling on the ground in front of them.

Listen again to what the man in dragon robe, the Emperor of Heaven, said.

Many people couldn't help but shed tears after being stunned.

God knows how much they have suffered during these days!

How much despair we have experienced!

I thought the days would continue to be dark and dark.

Living like a zombie every day, waiting for death to come.

Like those who died, they would die quietly.

Bodies were discarded haphazardly.

Who would have thought that the emperor is here now!

The emperor was actually willing to make the decision for them and stand on their side!

This is really a big surprise!

Ding Bin, Xue Xiang, Li Cunyi and many other people were kneeling on the ground in the back.

At this time, I just feel like my mind is blank.

Scared to death.

Is this Emperor Hongwu serious? !

Didn’t Mr. Han say that he knew Emperor Hongwu very well?

Are you just saying that coming to power now is just going through the motions?

Doesn’t it mean that no matter what happens, he can handle it as long as he is here?

Why is it that now...now it seems like he can't bear it? ?

Even the Korean prince is treated like this by his superiors, so how can they be better off?

This... now, I am going to be tricked to death by the Korean father! !

At this time, Prince Zhu Biao also came to Zhu Yuanzhang's side.

I bowed deeply to these people and expressed my apology.

Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and Zhu Xi all followed the example of their elder brother and saluted the common people.

A few of them have been here for some time.

It becomes clearer how much suffering these people have suffered...

"Make porridge! Make porridge for us immediately! All the pots are available for us to use!"

Make the porridge thick enough so that everyone can eat it and be full! ! "

Zhu Yuanzhang roared with red eyes.

Here in Zhongdu City, large pots were quickly set up, filled with food and water, and began to cook porridge.

In the process, Zhu Yuanzhang took Li Shanchang and others to some places in Zhongdu City and outside the city.

The weak laborers who had been hidden by Li Shanchang, Li Cunyi, Ding Bin and others in order to welcome his arrival were found one by one.

Everywhere is miserable.

Every time he found one more place, Zhu Yuanzhang's face turned livid.

He also made the officials from Zhongdu City who were following him feel a little softer in their calves.

A total of sixteen places where weak labor was hidden were found!

More than 20,000 weak laborers were gathered in Zhongdu City and watched as they wolfed down the porridge.

Zhu Yuanzhang, such an iron-blooded emperor, couldn't help crying in public.

People in the world have many misunderstandings about him.

I just thought he cared about the people and was just paying lip service to it.

Actually it is not.

The Dengwen drum was set up outside the Meridian Gate, so that every citizen who had unresolved grievances in the local area could come directly to Yingtianfu City to beat the Dengwen drum to complain about their grievances and complain to the emperor.

Different from the formality of other dynasties, he strictly ordered anyone to prevent the people from beating the drum.

No matter how big the matter he is dealing with, as long as the drum sounds, he will immediately stop and deal with this matter first.

They also asked people to promote this policy to all parts of the country.

Only this point, throughout the ages, how many emperors have been able to do it?

When he was young, he saw many subordinate officials in the government and how they went to the countryside to harm the people.

So in order to prevent these people from bullying and disturbing the people, he also asked subordinate officials to go to the countryside...

When building the capital, he specifically told Li Shanchang and others his requests more than once...

But in the end, Li Shanchang and others made things happen like this.

And until now, many people still think that he is making use of the topic.

The reason why he was so angry was not because these laborers were treated like this, but because several of his sons were captured and used as laborers.

Some people are really stubborn and unreasonable!

Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang crying, the relevant officials in Zhongdu City became even more weak in their calves.

From the time they went to greet the emperor early in the morning, until now, these people have not had a drop of water.

At this time, I was frightened and frightened. After all the busy work, I was all hungry.

Looking at the laborers, wolfing down the hot porridge, many of them felt that they were also very hungry.

But Zhu Yuanzhang, who had also not eaten anything since meeting them, had no intention of eating?

He stood here and watched for a while, then turned to look at Li Shanchang and others and said, "Is this scene tragic? Is it tragic?"

No one dared to say a word, they just bowed their heads deeply.

"But let me tell you, it's not bad enough! There are even worse things!

Walk! Let us show you what is worse! "

Zhu Yuanzhang said, striding forward.

There were many elite soldiers from the pro-military Duwei Mansion, wearing armor and holding sharp swords.

Wrapped around these officials, big and small, followed Zhu Yuanzhang out of Zhongdu City...

……

At this time, night has fallen, the cold wind is howling, and the weather is so cold that people shiver.

What was more terrifying than the weather was the furious Zhu Yuanzhang.

The light of the torch shines, dispelling the darkness.

Many soldiers armed with hoes and shovels were digging hard here.

When the soil was dug up, corpses appeared in front of everyone.

These corpses, not to mention coffins, were not even wrapped in tattered straw mats, so they were piled up in such a haphazard manner and buried here.

In the night, facing so many corpses, some of them had begun to rot and emitted a foul smell.

This scene is really terrifying!

Many officials in Zhongdu City were trembling with fear.

But Zhu Yuanzhang looked at it without blinking, his eyes were bloodshot, and his aura was scary!

Just the number of corpses here exceeds a thousand!

And this is not the only place where corpses are buried! !

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were blood red, and there was a huge rage burning in his chest!

"This is what you told me, there are some casualties in Zhongdu City?

This is what you told me, Zhongdu City is prosperous?

Everyone is grateful for our kindness.

Are you grateful to us because of their high treatment?

This is what you call Zhongdu City. After it is built, it will definitely become the greatest capital city? !

great? It's great as shit! !

How many people have died because of cultivating this Zhongdu! Lives that were harmed!

His family was ruined and his family was destroyed!

Are you still human? !

This is our Ming Dynasty, not the end of the Yuan Dynasty!

The emperor has changed!

Do you still want to be lawless and act recklessly like you did in the late Yuan Dynasty? !

Li Shanchang!

You have a high official position, so you are in charge of this matter.

Come! Come! Come and tell us!

Now that this situation occurs, what should we do? ! "

In the night, Zhu Yuanzhang's roar sounded.

Coupled with the large pit behind him where many corpses were buried, it made people shudder!

Facing Zhu Yuanzhang's questioning, Li Shanchang knelt on the ground, his face pale.

It seems... things are really going to go wrong this time...
