Rule the Ming Dynasty Alone

"I am a relative of the emperor, are you crazy?" Zhou Jing asked in a panic as his pants were wet.

Wang Yue knew that what he did could not be understood by these people. Just like when he first killed Li Guangming in anger for Hu Daniu, many people thought that his starting point was not for ordinary people.

But he knew in his heart that he had seen too much suffering in the world in Bianguan and Anlu, and he was insulated from the blessing of sharing peace.

Now that the emperor is rectifying the financial system to save the common people, he knows that if he wants to quickly quell this rebellion caused by the powerful, he can only quickly quell it by using thunderous means.

Whether it was to get rid of this serious harm to the people, or to smooth the financial rectification for the court, he had every reason to use Shang Fang's sword to kill the consort.

Wang Yue knew that the person in front of him had a special status, but he also understood what he needed to do: "I am not crazy! Since you have no respect for the king's laws and ignore the emperor's order, you are the one I want to kill today!"

Huh?

The people around him felt Wang Yue's arrogance and couldn't help but look at the tall old man seriously, as if they were getting to know the famous Wang Yue again.

"This consort is the emperor's biological uncle. You abused Shangfang's sword to kill me. You...how do you explain to His Majesty?" Zhou Jing seemed even more flustered and threatened again.

this……

When the people around him heard Zhou Jing's threats, they knew they would not dare to kill him.

Although it has been preached that princes who break the law are as guilty as the common people, it has always been the rule of law to govern the people but not the power since ancient times, not to mention that the consort in front of him is indeed the biological uncle of the current emperor.

Wang Yue had actually thought about this, but he quickly said firmly: "Since you are the emperor's uncle, you should support the emperor's decision-making! Now that you are taking the lead in opposing His Majesty's administration, you are an unfaithful and unjust person. Today, I will I want to eliminate harm for Your Majesty!"

With that said, he stopped talking nonsense with Zhou Jing and waved his hand to Lu Song to take Zhou Jing to the execution platform. He was going to use Shang Fang's sword to kill the prince-consort of the dynasty.

It is not my intention to be a prince, but it will bring peace to the world.

If this group of powerful people were unwilling to make this concession, he would not mind killing them all in order to prevent the entire Chinese nation from being shackled by usury again.

"No, no, you can't do this!" Zhou Jing felt the murderous intent in Wang Yue and collapsed on the ground in horror.

At this moment, the news that Zhou Jing had been arrested by Wang Yue had spread back to the Prince Consort's Mansion, and the Princess of Chongqing was rushing here after learning the news.

The spring day was high in the sky, and there seemed to be a sea of ​​people around the execution platform.

Since the Hongzhi Dynasty, the imperial court had beheaded Li Min, the former Minister of Household Affairs, the most corrupt official in the Ming Dynasty, and then beheaded Qingyun Hou Zhou Shou, the first foreign relative of the Ming Dynasty, and now it wants to behead Zhou Jing, the first prince-in-law of the Ming Dynasty.

Judging from these actions alone, although the emperor showed his iron-blooded side, he also showed the world his determination to change the Ming Dynasty.

It has been more than 120 years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. Although it is still the most powerful country in the world, many internal problems have been exposed.

When the ninth emperor ushered in, the new emperor never preached any new policies, but the country was prospering and seeking development for thousands of compatriots.

"Quickly, the king is going to behead his consort!"

"Which king beheaded? And which consort?"

"Ah? Wang Yue wants to kill Zhou Jing, did you hear it wrong?"

…

As the news here spread, a large group of onlookers were quickly attracted, and the execution ground was quickly surrounded again.

Zhou Jing has been put on the execution platform and is kneeling towards the east.

It was as if God had played a big joke on him. Just now he was the high-ranking prince-in-law, but now he has become a prisoner.

Even if I put this kind of thing in my dream, I would never imagine that my majestic prince-in-law would be beheaded, but everything in front of me seemed so real.

"Do you really want to kill the consort?"

"Can it still be fake?"

"The king's reputation for beheading is true!"

…

The onlookers had already surrounded the execution platform three levels inside and three levels outside. Now that they saw Zhou Jing was about to be executed, they couldn't help but start talking.

In fact, until now, many onlookers can't believe that this thing is true, but the consort Zhou Jing was indeed taken to the execution platform.

Xu Hong and a group of new scholars were assisting household officials in checking accounts in a nearby shop. When they heard the news, they rushed over to watch. At this time, they were secretly surprised and swallowed their saliva.

In this spring light, Wang Yue walked onto the execution platform holding Shang Fang's sword.

Wang Yue is actually quite old, already considered an old man, but looking at his figure, there is something just like what he said in his poem: "There are many idle people with gray heads who only want to kill monsters with their broken bodies."

this……

Xu Hong looked at the teacher who had shut out a large group of his people, and immediately felt his blood surge, and this majestic body was firmly engraved in his mind.

Wang Yue's murderous intention was fully realized at this moment. He had seen too much life and death at the border and too much poverty among the people. Now he wanted to create a bright future for this dynasty with his own hands.

Just at this moment, a voice rang out from outside the crowd: "The princess has arrived!"

Princess Chongqing finally arrived and saw Zhou Jing on the execution platform from a distance in the sedan chair.

Although she knew that Zhou Jing didn't really love her, they were still a couple after all, not to mention it was for their own business, so she naturally didn't want anything to happen to Zhou Jing.

When Zhou Jing saw Princess Chongqing appear, his eyes suddenly flashed with joy and he said: "Save me!"

A look of anger appeared on Princess Chongqing's face, and she shouted to Wang Yue on the execution platform: "Bold! Stop it!"

She is truly a proud daughter of heaven. She has been doted on by her father since she was a child, and even her husband has benefited greatly from it.

In the Chenghua Dynasty, as Zhu Jianshen's sister, she naturally became the emperor's guest, even if the Demon Queen had to sell herself a bit.

Although the relationship with the emperor's nephew has become somewhat estranged over the years, I often visited Qingning Palace when I was a child, and Zhu Youtang's name of "aunt" was so sweet.

The princess of Chongqing never expected that a little Yushi Zuodu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate would dare to push her husband to the guillotine, which was simply a scandal to the world.

"Hey, it's a step too late!"

The people who were watching couldn't help but sigh secretly when they saw the majestic imperial princess arriving.

After Wang Yue heard that the princess had arrived, he remained unmoved. He didn't even look at the princess and signaled Lu Song to hold her down.

Princess Chongqing's pupils shrank, as if seeing Wang Yue's persistence, she said angrily: "Bold rebel, are you going to rebel?"

Wang Yue never forgot that he was holding Shang Fang's sword, so he raised Shang Fang's horse-killing sword high in his hand, and then swung it hard at Zhou Jing's neck.

For a moment, the whole place suddenly became silent.

puff!

As Shang Fang's horse-killing sword in Wang Yue's hand drew a beautiful arc in the air, a stream of blood splashed high, and Zhou Jing's head rolled to the ground.

"Ah! Really beheaded?"

"Is this the majestic prince-in-law beheaded?"

"The king beheaded, really... he really deserves his reputation!"

…

The people who were watching saw Zhou Jing's head cleanly chopped off by Wang Yue. They were extremely shocked and couldn't help but secretly marvel at Wang Yue.

Although this dynasty had a precedent of consort princes being sentenced to death as early as the Taizu period, now that the emperor's relatives have grown stronger, the emperor usually makes concessions.

But who could have imagined that the majestic Prince Consort would die at the hands of a minister of this dynasty, a sinner who only came back to power after the new emperor ascended the throne.

this……

Xu Hong and a group of new scholars saw Wang Yue's feats with their own eyes, as if they wanted to get to know the old man again, and silently felt his indomitable spirit in doing things.

"Ah... wait, I want to kill your whole family!"

The Chongqing princess was close to going berserk, but a ball of overwhelming anger surged into her heart, and she fainted after spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Wang Yue saw Zhou Jing's head being chopped off by himself, but he didn't feel much.

Even though he was a high-ranking prince-in-law, in his heart, he was no different from Li Zhiqing who was poisoning the place. He was even more hateful than Li Zhiqing.

That day in the royal study room, he saw with his own eyes Yu Ming, who was forced to look like a ghost by loan sharks, but he knew that there were not a few people who had the same experience as Yu Ming, but no one cared about him.

Now that the emperor has discovered this problem and is determined to solve it, he has given himself so much trust that he is willing to be the sword of such a wise king.

Wang Yue looked around at the crowds of people, and then slowly said: "I am the censor of the Zuodu Procuratorate, and I am hereby ordered to investigate the finances to eliminate the harm of usury! Anyone who dares to obstruct the court's laws will be executed without mercy!"

"The common people pay homage to Wang Qingtian!"

"With monarchs and ministers like this, Ming Dynasty will prosper!"

"Removing the harm of usury is good governance. Long live the Ming Dynasty!"

…

The tens of thousands of people present reacted one after another. After seeing with their own eyes Wang Yue's firm stance on organizing finance, they also knelt down and worshiped.

When Xu Hong and other new scholars saw Wang Yue who was not afraid of the powerful, they were deeply impressed by this master, and they bowed deeply to Wang Yue on the execution platform.

Maybe they don't have the name of teachers and students, but they have received this kind of spiritual inheritance, and they are willing to be like Wang Yue, regardless of the consequences, to create a better tomorrow for this dynasty.

Blood was still pouring out of Zhou Jing's upper body, and bright red blood was dripping from the execution platform, simultaneously kicking off a killing spree in the capital today.

"Why did you bring me here?"

"After this prince's meritorious service, who dares to kill me?"

"Woo... I was wrong, please forgive me!"

…

Although it is true that there are insufficient manpower to guard a hundred stores, when they learned that a certain store was attacked, the Metropolitan Procuratorate also summoned manpower to arrest them.

The debt collectors supported by this group of powerful people are actually a group of hooligans. These people really dare to beat ordinary people to death, but they still lack the confidence to face the people from the investigation office of the Metropolitan Procuratorate with official status.

If ordinary people are killed, the financial backers behind them can easily deal with it. It's just that the Metropolitan Procuratorate is the highest second-level yamen, not to mention there are thousands of dignified households in it, so they don't dare to kill them no matter what.

On the other hand, the Metropolitan Procuratorate was ordered to guard the shops, and with the instructions of the Zuodu Censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, they naturally arrested all these "rebellious thieves" and directly killed the gangsters who resisted.

Wang Yue was unmoved by the begging for mercy from these young masters. Once such people found an opportunity, they would continue to do evil, so it was better to deal with them now.

"Do you still want to kill?"

The people in the capital couldn't help but vomit secretly as they watched the four young men being led to the execution platform.

puff!

puff!

puff!

…

Witnessed by the people in the capital, Wang Yue used Shang Fang's sword to kill the four troublemakers, using his blood to pave the way for the court to sort out its finances.

"I am a member of the Jinyi Guards of Beizhen Fusi, a personal guard of the Emperor. You have no right to kill me!" Qian Chengzong clearly stated his identity when faced with death threats.

After Wang Yue beheaded several troublemakers, he only spared Qian Chengzong, a member of the Imperial Guard with a special status.

Naturally, it was not because of Qian Chengzong's status as a relative of the state, but mainly because of the royal guards as the emperor's personal guards. Wang Yue knew that only through intelligence could he be executed.

In fact, this arrogant Beizhen Fusi Jinyi Wei Qianshi only lived one night longer than the others.

This sudden commotion while the emperor was leaving the capital was undoubtedly an act of provocation to the imperial power. If it weren't for Zhu Youtang's backup, and Wang Yue was indeed a rare capable minister, I don't know which direction things would have developed.

Wang Yue used Shang Fang's sword to kill the troublemakers, and the news soon spread to the streets of Beijing.

In the south of the city, in a secret house.

Ma Wensheng knew that Zhu Youzhang's spring festival would never go back, so he took advantage of this "good opportunity" and planned this "riot".

However, against all calculations, Wang Yue never expected to use Shang Fang's sword.

Not to mention the sons and daughters they encouraged, even the third prince-in-law of the dynasty was killed by Wang Yue with his sword, and everyone else was undoubtedly cannon fodder.

"We all underestimated the emperor!" The red-nosed old man couldn't help but sigh bitterly after learning the whole story.

The eldest man knew that Wang Yue was the biggest accomplice, and he expressed his position bitterly: "Wang Yue is simply more hateful than Wang Zhi. He should not have been given a way out back then!"

"What should we do now?" The old man who had been silent seemed very sober, but he asked the most important question at the moment.

Originally, they thought that while the emperor was going to attend the Spring Festival, they could incite the dignitaries in the capital to fight against the imperial power, thus disrupting the court's financial rectification.

It's just that all of them underestimated the current Saint. Since all the important ministers have restrained their relatives to accept the court's financial consolidation, Wang Yue is now simply the emperor's most powerful general, causing their plan to have actually failed.

Ma Wensheng knew that things could no longer be forced, so he seemed to be wise and said: "The current situation is not necessarily a bad thing!"

"Brother Ma, how do you say this?" The eldest man's eyes lit up slightly.

Ma Wensheng faced everyone's gaze and expressed his opinion: "The emperor is determined to rectify the finance this time. Why should we stop him? Let him offend all the nobles first!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone present immediately understood and silently exchanged a proud look.

Ma Wensheng's pride did not last long. When he returned home from the secret meeting, he received bad news: his precious son was involved and was beheaded by Wang Yue.

puff!

Ma Wensheng knew that his son was lawless, otherwise his son would not have killed people on the street, but he did not expect that he would die at the hands of Wang Yue, and a mouthful of blood suddenly spurted out.
