Rebirth of the perfect brother-in-law
Chapter 71 Sleepless in Hangzhou The next chapter ends this volume
When the Great Liang was first established, and there were foreign enemies peeking in, the royal family couldn't spare any time to attack the nobles, so they could only win over them first. Even if they caused any trouble, they would just turn a blind eye and get over it.
Today is different from the past. The Daliang royal family has completely eliminated all forces and is becoming more confident. Especially the destruction of the Shen family 20 years ago. Although Daliang suffered some damage, it has finally taken the first step to clear out the family.
, it’s ridiculous that many nobles in Jiangnan are used to being arrogant and domineering, and they seem to be sure that the royal family will still swallow their anger.
Chu Nan acted cruelly because he guessed that Emperor Liang had great resentment towards many families in the south of the Yangtze River, especially the Zhang family. At present, the Zhang family was hurt but not crippled. Many forces that relied on the Zhang family still had hope for the Zhang family.
, so they are uniting to suppress Chu Nan, but as long as the Zhang family is really crippled, Emperor Liang will not humble himself and try to help the Zhang family up again, and many forces will see the situation clearly and join forces again.
Yang Lin listened in a daze, scratched her head and asked in confusion: "Then you are not afraid that the Chu family will be jealous of other clans? Many people will think that you have been instructed by Lord Chu."
Chu Nan smiled and said: "The Chu family has landed ashore a long time ago, so there is no need to worry about this. If you think about it again, I sealed Hebisheng, and someone has to take over the lucrative businesses such as purchasing and transporting military rations and trading with the barbarians in the northwest.
.In the past, the Zhang family was the dominant one. They said they cooperated with all parties, but most of the benefits were still eaten up by the Zhang family. Now that I have taken such a big fat piece of meat from the Zhang family’s mouth and put it on the table, I think many people
Everyone will be greedy."
Yang Lin giggled. Although she didn't know much about these things, watching Chu Nan discuss with her seriously still made her feel very accomplished. She thought for a long time and frowned: "But I heard that His Majesty is going to recruit you back. This matter
Will the case go unsolved again?”
Chu Nan sighed: "Your Majesty has been preparing for so long to complete the Northern Expedition. It is such a good opportunity to leave a name in history. Naturally, I don't want to be upset by the Zhang family."
Yang Lin took Chu Nan's hand and said worriedly: "Then your efforts were all in vain?"
Chu Nan said quietly: "It won't be in vain, I will help Your Majesty make up his mind.
"What, you want a public trial and a public sentence? You want the main culprit to be beheaded in public?"
Wang Defu frowned and looked at Chu Nan, saying in disbelief.
Chu Nan nodded and said calmly: "Yes, your Majesty has softened his heart again at this time, which really shouldn't be the case. I will help your Majesty completely strengthen his intention to suppress the Zhang family."
Wang Defu pursed his lips and murmured: "You are forcing His Majesty to stand on your side, and you are also blackmailing His Majesty in disguise."
Chu Nan didn't care and said slowly: "Master Wang is serious, how can this be considered as threatening His Majesty? I don't have that kind of idea, nor do I have the ability."
Wang Defu smiled bitterly and said: "According to the rules, even if the Metropolitan Procuratorate does not hand over the case to Hangzhou Prefecture, it must still hand it over to the Ministry of Punishment. If all the shopkeepers of Hebisheng are dead, the business will probably exist in name only. Will Your Majesty give the case to the Ministry of Justice again?"
Will He Bisheng be returned to the Zhang family? I think most of them will hold their noses and accept your love."
After saying that, Wang Defu seemed to have thought of something, shook his head and said with a smile: "You really made a good plan, to tear down Hebisheng and let other families in Jiangnan divide it up? You offended the Zhang family to death, but you found a unique way to win the favor of other families.
By the way, let His Majesty say "I know you are reckless, but who could have guessed that you have such far-reaching thoughts."
Chu Nan sighed: "This is the only thing we can do now. I can't let the Chu family really get involved in this whirlpool."
Wang Defu looked at Chu Nan with emotion and reminded: "His Majesty's imperial edict is probably on the way. If you want to take action, you must hurry up. Once the edict arrives, it will be too late."
Chu Nan stood up and said softly: "The time spent in Jiangnan is enough, it's time to go back. Today we will deal with the last bit of the tail, and tomorrow we will take people to the execution ground."
In the afternoon of the same day, Chu Nan personally visited Liu Yue, the head of the Liu family. The two of them screened away everyone for an hour and waited until the sun set in the west before leaving Liu Yue's study.
Liu Yue looked a little weird and said hesitantly: "Master Chu's idea is good. The Liu family is also willing to take part of Hebisheng's business in various places. However, how can Master Chu ensure that the Liu family can get it smoothly?"
Chu Nan looked at the sky, shook his head and said softly: "This is just for the Liu family to move from behind the scenes of Hebisheng to the front. As long as Mr. Liu can raise the urgently needed military rations in Mobei, he will naturally be in the hearts of His Majesty and the generals."
If you leave a good impression, it will be a matter of course for you to successfully take over the role of He Bi Sheng."
After saying that, Chu Nan lowered his voice and said: "Mr. Liu, don't forget that the Chu family and the Grand Scholar Wang are in charge of things in the capital, so don't worry."
Liu Yue's heart jumped, and he naturally understood that this was a God-given opportunity that could not be missed. He gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, even if the Liu family sells iron, they will not let the soldiers of Mobei starve. In addition, the Liu family will provide three thousand, no, five for free."
Thousands of cotton-padded clothes are given to the soldiers in Mobei to keep out the cold."
Chu Nan laughed loudly. After all, he is a businessman. Naturally, he can see the huge benefits more clearly than Chu Nan. No matter how much the loss is this time, as long as he successfully takes over the profit of purchasing and transporting military rations, he will naturally make tenfold and hundredfold profits in the future.
return.
Chu Nan walked to the door and reminded him: "At noon tomorrow, Mr. Liu, don't forget to invite several other family heads to watch the ceremony at the execution ground."
Liu Yue calmed down. After all, this was just a plan. Whether the matter could be successful or not was another question. He nodded slowly and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Chu. I think the other family heads will also be very interested in this matter."
The news of the great victory of the Northern Expedition finally reached Hangzhou. Obviously, this news is also very exciting. Although it is far away and one cannot feel the tragic desolation of the battlefield, the expansion of territory has always been the most exciting news. Count Hangzhou
The people decorated the scene with lanterns and colorful decorations, secretly shouting that His Majesty was wise and the Liang soldiers were mighty. It was a pity that Emperor Liang could not witness the celebration scene in the south of the Yangtze River with his own eyes, otherwise he would have laughed out loud in most of his dreams. A tragic victory could make the people of the south of the Yangtze River return to their hearts.
, this alone can be said to be a success in the Northern Expedition.
Jiang Yue arranged for a courier to be sent eight hundred miles away to deliver the news of the Northern Expedition's victory, and then he slowly breathed a sigh of relief. A case with such bad influence as He Bisheng would be completely wiped out in front of the Northern Expedition's victory. Emperor Liang swept away the
With Daliang's decades of power, no one would be allowed to ruin this grand ceremony. The annoying Chu Nan was about to be recalled to the capital, so he could at least breathe a sigh of relief.
The steward of the prefecture's Yamen ran in a little hastily and said with difficulty: "Sir, Mr. Chu from the Imperial Procuratorate just sent someone to deliver the news.
Jiang Yue was in a good mood. He picked up the tea cup and asked with a smile: "Does it mean that the Inspectorate is returning to the capital and is here to bid farewell to me?"
The steward lowered his head and said tremblingly: "Master Chu said that at noon tomorrow, fifty-seven important criminals including Zhang Pu, Zhang Mingqi, Zheng Qichu, etc. will be beheaded in public. Please go and watch the execution, sir!"
Jiang Yue's face turned pale, and the tea cup fell from his hand, soaking his official uniform, and shattered into pieces on the ground with a crisp sound.
Tonight, Hangzhou is destined to sleep!
