Protests and demonstrations in the south have developed from Suzhou Prefecture to Zhenjiang, Changzhou, and even Nanjing.

As the flow of people increased, it gradually turned into a riot, and some people started beating, smashing, looting and burning.

In a painting boat on the Qinhuai River, Zhang Ruoqi, Zheng Si, Wang Duo, Zhao Zhilong and others were all happily talking about wine.

They were not worried about the situation getting out of control. For them, the more chaos the Ming Dynasty had, the better. It was best to overthrow Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youjian directly.

Zhang Ruolin raised his wine glass and laughed triumphantly:

"Hahaha, today's dog emperor has no way, and he doesn't pay attention to the gentry and literati. We are also petitioning for heaven. It must be very satisfying!"

Wang Duo also got up and raised his glass:

"During the Wanli period, eunuchs were sent to Jiangnan to collect taxes, what happened?

As a result, he was beaten to death by our Jiangnan literati, and Wanli did not dare to impose any punishment. "

Zheng Si also toasted with a sinister smile on his face:

"Of course, in the future, scholars should coexist with Zhu, Hong Wu is a cowherd, only literati can rule the world with him..."

"Hahaha... Cheers..."

The leaders of the older generation of literati were either killed by Zhu Youjian, or retreated behind the scenes.

They are the current literati leaders in Jiangnan. In their view, if the old Zhu family wants to govern the world, they cannot do without them.

Even if the Korean and Chinese officials are temporarily suppressed by military officials, the court will still be in the hands of their civilian officials in the near future.

And those who support them are huge gentlemen and literati, which are extremely rampant.

However, when they were overjoyed, they forgot that there is an old saying in China that extreme joy begets sorrow.

After clinking glasses, before the wine glass was brought to his mouth, he suddenly heard a cold voice:

"Hahaha, it's just a bunch of rotten scholars who dare to criticize the current sage behind their backs..."

Chapter 374 The Scholar and Zhu Share the World

A few rotten scholars were coaxing coquettishly, when suddenly a high-pitched voice came.

There was a bone-piercing coolness in this voice, which immediately made several people feel a chill down their backs.

Looking back, a big eunuch wearing a python robe was standing in front of the room with his hands behind his back, looking coldly at the few people present.

After looking behind the chief eunuch and seeing no one else, these rotten scholars regained their confidence.

They are surrounded by martial arts masters hired with a lot of money, and they don't care about a eunuch, just throw them into the river and feed them to bastards.

Zhang Ruoqi was calmer and more cunning than the others. He didn't speak, but wanted to see who this person was thinking of.

But Wang Duo jumped up against the case, pointed at the visitor and shouted sharply:

"Who, why boarded our boat privately?"

The visitor smiled coldly, walked up to them, reached out and picked up the wine jug and poured himself a glass, then drank it all in one gulp before saying lightly:

"Cao Zhengchun, the governor of our East Factory, do you have any last words? Say it quickly, or you won't have a chance to say it later."

"hiss……"

As soon as Cao Zhengchun signed up, several rotten scholars immediately gasped.

Some people's legs have already started to feel weak. How many people don't know the name of Cao Zhengchun, the governor of the East Factory, but he is the loyal eagle dog of the current emperor.

"Oh, it turns out that the governor of the East Factory is here, and the next official has a meeting with Mr. Cao."

These people hastily bowed to salute, but Cao Zhengchun smiled coldly:

"You guys are being polite. Our family dare not accept your big gift. You are the people who manage the world together with the current Holy One."

Cao Zhengchun's words immediately made several of them break out in a cold sweat. Obviously, their words must have been heard by Cao Zhengchun.

The literati and Zhu shared the world, if the emperor heard this sentence, he would definitely be wiped out of the nine clans. The few rotten Confucians did not stop doing anything, and at this time they already had the idea of ​​​​killing people to silence them.

At this time Zhang Ruoqi stood up:

"Lord Cao, it's not like I'm just talking nonsense. You may already know something about the situation in the south of the Yangtze River. Thousands of gentry and literati are petitioning for heaven. I don't know what Master Cao thinks?"

"Kill, our family has only one word when dealing with you rotten Confucians. If you dare to openly defy the reform of the current imperial decree, there is only one way to die. Now our family will give you two ways to go.

First, you stick your heads out and let our family slap them into pieces.

Second, jump into the river by yourself to feed the bastard, and give you ten breaths to think about. "

The two roads are both a dead end, do you still have to choose? Several people were almost pissed off by Cao Zhengchun, they pointed at Cao Zhengchun so angry that they couldn't speak.

Zhang Ruoqi rolled his eyes a few times, and suddenly reached out to pat the wall of the wooden cabin and shouted loudly:

"Come here, let this fake eunuch be executed on the spot."

Before the words were finished, five or six burly men with swords came in immediately. Without saying a word, they all raised their swords and went straight to Cao Zhengchun, the governor of the East Factory.

Zhang Ruoqi looked at Cao Zhengchun coldly, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth.

These people are the bodyguards of Zhang Ruoqi and the others, all of them have high martial arts skills and exquisite swordsmanship, and they are all masters selected in a thousand.

Zhang Ruoqi took it for granted that as long as they made a move, the three Cao Zhengchun would have no chance of surviving, let alone Cao Zhengchun was alone.

But Cao Zhengchun didn't care, the wine glass in his hand flew out, and with a strong wind, he shot at the person in front, who snorted coldly:

"Impossible."

He swung his sword and hit the wine glass, but he underestimated the speed of the wine glass. As soon as the sword was raised, the wine glass hit him hard on the forehead.

"Boom..."

"Whoa..."

The wine cup split into pieces on their foreheads, and the man's cap was shattered, he didn't even have a chance to snort, and he died instantly.

After killing one person, Cao Zhengchun moved to the other person's side as soon as he moved, raised his hand and punched out:

"Boom..."
