Chapter 167: Cutting the grass and eradicating the roots! (First update)
Inside Peiping City.
After a brief panic, the people in Chengtou City noticed something strange and took to the streets again.
Yanwang Mansion.
Qiu Fu has arrived outside the house.
No matter how much he shouted and forced his way in, no one dared to let him in.
Qiu Fu stood outside the door, his expression gradually changing from frightened and uneasy to vicious and determined.
Because I just heard the news that my son was arrested in a brothel.
He knows.
King Yan was really angry.
But so far, King Yan has not found him, which means that things are still turning around.
Qiu Fu had a sinister face and hurried back to his mansion. When he summoned the people in the mansion, he also drove away the crying woman beside him.
At this point, my father-in-law cannot be saved.
But his son must be saved.
Qiu Song is his only son, the only bloodline of his Qiu family.
He could not allow his heirs to be cut off.
Qiu Fu closed his eyes, recalling the stupid things Qiu Song had done in the past, and couldn't help but cursed: "What a beast, how could I give birth to such a beast? It was me who became a father before It’s too easy to let you go. It’s a good thing to let you go to jail now.”
“I am His Highness’s confidant.”
“Your Highness knows the situation of my Qiu family. I, Qiu Fu, am so loyal that I will never have any descendants."
"Then everything will turn around."
Central hall.
All the guards from Qiu Mansion have arrived.
Everyone is standing with a knife. These are his old buddies, veterans who have experienced many battles. However, not everyone wanted to continue to stay in the army back then. Many people were After the world was peaceful, he chose to retire, and he took the opportunity to recruit these people as his bodyguards.
He can rest assured using these old pawns.
Qiu Fu's voice was a little hoarse and he said indifferently: "You have all heard the situation in the mansion."
"My father-in-law has been arrested."
"Something happened to my son too."
"Now people in the city are panicked, and His Highness has become angry. This time the matter will not be settled so easily. I can't care so much anymore. My father-in-law has done a lot of things. If he hadn't relied on my name, he would have died countless times. This is also his own fault."
" I won’t save you this time.”
“I called you here just for one thing.”
"Save Song'er."
"Song'er is my only child, Qiu Fu, and you have watched him grow up. You know better than me what he has done behind his back. His Highness is not looking for it at the moment. I mean, His Highness is still giving me a chance, and this chance is for me to take advantage of the turmoil in the city to eliminate the evidence of Song'er's past evil deeds."
"Here comes one. There is no proof!"
"I don't care what method you use, nor what means you use."
"I want to shut up everyone who might cause trouble to Song'er."
Qiu Fu's words were filled with resentment, and his eyes gradually became vicious.
He was a little anxious in front of him.
But as the general who led the army, he quickly calmed down after a burst of anger, and quickly thought of a countermeasure. He only needed to kill those who might 'slander' Qiu Song. Well, if there is no proof, if he asks for mercy in front of King Yan again, Qiu Song will probably be criticized a few times, and there will be no real bloody disaster.
“Butler.” Qiu Fu looked at the white-bearded old man aside.
“Master.”
"Take them out, be quick and ruthless, and settle these matters before the officials convict you. As for those people Song'er has offended and the troubles he has caused over the years, you should know better than anyone else. I will deal with them all one by one." Qiu Fu's face was very ferocious.
“Yes.”
The housekeeper responded quickly.
Take these seven or eight guards and walk outside.
After the housekeeper walked away, Qiu Fu collapsed on the ground weakly.
He didn't know whether what he did was right or wrong, and he didn't know what King Yan would think of him when he found out, but he had no choice now. As a father, he couldn't just watch his son being killed. ?
When my father-in-law dies, he dies.
But if his son dies, he will really die.
A long time.
Qiu Fu got up from the ground.
His face has regained its composure.
Qiu Fu has been with King Yan for so long, and many officials in Peiping have contact with him. The worst he can do is lose face and beg more people. With so many people begging for mercy, King Yan can't just ignore them all, right?
Street and alley.
Zhu Di rides a tall horse.
One hand is holding the reins and the other is holding a riding crop.
He looked at Yao Guangxiao who was following him and said: "How many people came to me to beg for mercy just now."
Yao Guangxiao said: "Qiu Fu, Li Bin."
Yao Guangxiao will one The names were spoken, but every time he heard a name, Zhu Di's eyes became colder, and then he sneered: "I, Zhu Di, have only been interested in fighting for so many years, and I only think about fighting. Why do my subordinates Are all the soldiers like this?”
“Am I not treating them well?”
“I give most of the rewards from the court to them.” "Why are these people so dissatisfied?"
"I wanted to check the situation and explore the bottom of Peiping by the way, but I didn't expect that this investigation would reveal so many problems. It's like Xia Zhibai said, these people are arrogant and domineering It is hard to even cover up the past, for fear that others will not know that these things were done by them and that they and the government protected them."
"At the beginning, His Majesty said that the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were all arrogant and powerful soldiers. He said without shame, there is nothing wrong with having arrogant soldiers and strong generals. Only with such an army can we win the war."
"As a result, these arrogant soldiers and strong generals are not only arrogant externally, but also inappropriate internally. People.”
“I was too arrogant in the past.”
"Every one of them is used to being arrogant. When something happens, they panic. They can't even keep calm. They dare to use all kinds of stupid tricks. If they didn't know that these people are soldiers under my command, Military attache, I thought these were some gangsters from the village."
Zhu Di said calmly, but his eyes became colder and colder.
At first he did want to hold it high and let it go.
But this investigation also made Zhu Di laugh.
Qiu Fu, Li Bin and others seemed to have been pulled by the tail. They used all kinds of stupid tricks and shook out things that were not found originally.
Zhu Di also knew.
People like Qiu Fu and Li Bin are too confident.
Thinking that Peiping is the fiefdom of his King Yan, and they are his cronies, who dares to find out about them?
Normally, he is lawless and unscrupulous in what he does.
When something really happened, I panicked.
Yao Guangxiao said: "Your Highness, Qiu Fu's son, do you really want to kill him?"
"Kill him!" Zhu Di said it casually, but there was no concealment of his strong murderous intention. .
Cold, indifferent, ruthless, cold-blooded, without any emotion.
Only pure killing intent.
If he hadn’t known that Qiu Song had done so many bad things, he would have turned a blind eye, but now that he knew it, especially when he heard that Qiu Fu was willing to cut the grass and roots to eliminate the evidence, he It can no longer be tolerated.
He dared to do all this under his nose, and even worse behind his back.
He dare not use such a person.
He is afraid too!
But Zhu Di was still very hesitant about Qiu Fu's treatment.
Qiu Fu is an expert in fighting.
Qiu Fu was unequivocal in charging into battle and killing the enemy. He had saved his own life in the past, so he was very good at using people like this, but this time, it was impossible to end things hastily. He would definitely kill Qiu Fu's son, no matter what. The people in the city couldn't be blamed for killing him, and Qiu Fu himself made a mistake and made things happen like this, so he had no choice but to kill him.
Otherwise, everyone under King Yan would do this.
Is he still the King of Yan?
A long time.
Zhu Di pinched the horse's belly and said: "Monk, go to Qiu Mansion for me and bring me something to say to Qiu Fu. I must kill his son and father-in-law. I must kill him." The reason for killing is if he expresses dissatisfaction, resentment, or even direct harsh words"
"He is my old subordinate, he should have a clear mind."
"Oh."
"You should know what to do."
There was a look in Zhu Di's eyes A touch of unbearability and cruelty.
Yao Guangxiao nodded.
He already knew it in his heart.
Zhu Di has sentenced Qiu Fu to death.
If Qiu Fu had tolerated it from the beginning and did nothing, or just came to plead for mercy, Zhu Di would not have been so angry. But the mistake was that Qiu Fu wanted to take matters into his own hands and send people to eradicate the roots. No one can stand this kind of thing.
Because this is deceiving the superiors and concealing the truth from the inferiors.
Even if you want to do these things, you must first ask Zhu Di and follow Zhu Di's suggestions before you can do them, instead of doing it yourself.
Even if Qiu Fu endures this time, Zhu Di will not reuse him again. Qiu Fu is indeed good at fighting, but that's all. If Qiu Fu had not saved Zhu Di's life on the battlefield before, no matter how brave he was, he would not be able to climb to where he is now. Location.
It’s just that Qiu Fu himself didn’t cherish it.
Reveal your true nature too early.
Before leaving, Zhu Di seemed to have thought of something, and said: "Take the account books that Xia Zhibai sent with you, so that he can know that his son died clearly and clearly."
When Yao Guangxiao walked away, Zhu Di reined in his horse and looked at the street.
There are few people on the streets.
Soldiers wearing armor and carrying halberds were running around the streets in a strict manner.
This time he is also taking the opportunity to clean up his Prince Yan's Mansion. In the past, he only looked at Kyoto and the north, but he neglected to restrain his soldiers. After Xia Zhibai's reminder, He suddenly woke up. If he didn't restrain his subordinates, these people would be a hidden danger to his success.
Now it's up to him to clean up.
When the court becomes dissatisfied with him in the future, whatever these people do behind his back will become a knife stabbed at him.
The imperial court will not be lenient to him.
He is also expressing his stance to the court.
He had no bad intentions. It was his subordinates who made their own decisions. He was just implicated and harmed. Now after a thorough investigation and cleanup, these officials with evil intentions have been eliminated. In a short period of time, the strength of Prince Yan's Mansion was seriously damaged. It is impossible for any covetous heart to arise again.
After the confrontation with Xia Zhibai, Zhu Di grew up a lot.
I was also a little wary of the King of Qin and the King of Jin.
He used to think that King Qin and King Jin were really cruel and fatuous, and he was very disdainful of them, but now he didn't dare to look at them any more. King Qin and King Jin were obviously smart, and they relied on various evil deeds to make themselves good. He enjoyed it, and secondly, he took the initiative to hand over the handle, lowering the wariness of his father and eldest brother.
The methods are much better than his.
