Reborn as a tyrant in the Ming Dynasty

The capital is like a gathering place for fame and fortune. No matter what kind of people they are, they all want to occupy a place in the capital. They may have different ideas, but the vision is the same. This also means that any disturbance will attract a large number of people. This is the charm of Beijing!

"Let's talk about it, what should we do next?"

The main hall of the Imperial Palace.

Zhang Weixian had a serious expression, leaning on the official hat chair and looking around at the people sitting in front of him, but the atmosphere at the moment seemed very subtle.

"British Lord, when Your Majesty called you into the palace, didn't you talk about the Tongbao Bank?" Zhang Qingzhen hesitated for a moment, looked around, and then asked Zhang Weixian.

"Yes."

Wei Shitai followed closely and said, "It's impossible for your Majesty to not understand the recent situation of the Tongbao Silver. Didn't your Majesty say anything?"

"No."

Aware of everyone's gaze, Zhang Weixian said calmly.

When he was summoned into the palace, Zhang Weixian also thought that the emperor wanted to know about the Tongbao Bank. After all, the situation of the Tongbao Bank recently was really worrying!

Crowds of people crowding in.

Rumors spread everywhere.

Faced with such a situation, Zhang Weixian and Zhang Qingzhen had no choice but to gamble. After all, the emperor had made it so clear before.

If you retreat from the battlefield, it will be difficult to gain the emperor's trust in the future!

What Zhang Weixian didn't expect was that when the emperor summoned him to the palace, he didn't talk about Baoyin. Instead, he talked about the Five Cities Military and Horse Division, the Five Cities Patrol Censorship Office and other matters.

There were even many times that Zhang Weixian wanted to mention the Tongbao Silver Account to attract the emperor's attention, but without exception, the topic was diverted.

This made Zhang Weixian understand something.

The emperor is aware of the current situation of Tongbao Bank.

But the emperor avoided talking about it.

This inevitably makes Zhang Weixian think more.

"What on earth do you mean, Emperor?!"

An honorable nobleman couldn't sit still and frowned: "Obviously the emperor has said before that no matter what difficulties the Tongbao Bank encounters, the money inside will be kept!"

"Yes, we didn't want to disturb the emperor unless we had to. For this reason, we smashed all the money in the bottom of the box. Even some of the people under the sect had their money misappropriated by us. But now it doesn't matter. ah!?"

"Yes!"

Another honorable noble followed closely and said: "I didn't even think about what Hui Anbo said at the beginning. If you say you want to get money, just get money. If you want to open a semicolon, just open a semicolon. Now we are in this situation. , if we don’t find a way to solve it, Tongbao Bank will collapse.”

When talking about this, the nobles sitting in the hall all looked at Hui'an Bo Zhang Qingzhen, and some even changed their eyes.

"Is this Uncle Ben's fault?"

Zhang Qingzhen was no longer willing to do so. He slapped the case and said angrily: "Did I steal all the money that was thrown in behind your back? Didn't it all go to the operation of the Tongbao Bank?"

"Uncle Ben said a lot at the beginning, but there was one sentence that Uncle Ben held a knife to your necks and forced you to do it?"

The atmosphere in the hall became subtle.

Zhang Weixian frowned. The thing that worried him the most had finally happened.

"enough!!"

At this moment, Zhang Weixian snorted: "What time is it now? If we don't try to solve the problems one by one, will there really be internal strife?"

"If this is the case, if anyone has grievances in his heart, he should speak out as soon as possible. If anyone wants to withdraw from Tongbao Bank, he should do so now. Your losses will all be recorded in my name!"

Now all the nobles sitting there lowered their heads.

In this case, Zhang Weixian can say it.

But they can't really do that.

If they choose to retreat at this time, perhaps their losses can be compensated, but from now on, they will not even think about getting involved in this circle, and they will not even think about the trust and reliance of the emperor from now on.

No matter at any time, the fence-sitters are the most disgusting, and they are also the quickest to die!

The current situation was precisely what Zhu Youxiao had intentionally brought about.

Without him.

Zhu Youxiao wanted to use this method to see how the nobles in the Royal Forbidden Army would react when faced with a choice and when their own interests might be harmed.

If anyone really chooses to back down, Zhu Youxiao will never use it again in the future!

Of course.

Since he chose to use this method to test, Zhu Youxiao must solve the crisis and even make Zhang Weixian and the others feel in awe, otherwise all he does will damage his own foundation!

……

Compared to the quarrel in the main hall of the Imperial Guards Palace, the atmosphere in a certain annex in the capital was very lively.

"Haha!! The good days of Tongbao Bank will not last long!"

"That's right, with the current situation, Tongbao Yinhao will definitely collapse before long."

"After all, it's Duke Cheng Guo who is really meticulous in what he does."

"Now I just want to see how Zhang Weixian and the others react, haha!!"

Another group of nobles gathered in this luxurious hall, each of them looked so excited. Although they had lost some money in the previous run, if they could squeeze out the Tongbao Bank, then in the future They can get it back in multiples.

Don't say anything else.

They can still see how much money they can make just by opening a bank account in Beijing.

Not to mention, after this incident, the emperor knew that Zhang Weixian and the others were not available. As long as the emperor chose to reuse them, he would have more power and more ways to make money.

"I propose that we all toast to the Duke Cheng."

Under this situation, Xu Xigao, who was smiling, lifted up the sleeves of his robe, picked up the wine cup at hand, and looked at Zhu Chunchen, who was sitting in the main seat.

"It's so clear!"

"Respect!"

"Become the Duke!"

Zhu Chunchen looked at the people in front of him with a faint smile on his face, and he could not hide the arrogance between his eyebrows.

"This wine, in my opinion, should be given to you all."

Facing everyone's gaze, Zhu Chunchen leisurely picked up the wine cup and said: "If it weren't for your generous help, we wouldn't have achieved what we have today. I see your performance in my eyes and remember it in my heart. We are all nobles of the Ming Dynasty, and we should advance and retreat together!!"

When Zhu Chunchen said this, many of the nobles sitting in the hall thought of Zhang Weixian and the others, and immediately felt disgust in their hearts.

Speaking of which, we are all nobles and should support each other.

Especially when the current situation in the court is so chaotic and it is difficult to guess what the emperor does, under such circumstances, everyone should communicate with each other.

But the performance of Zhang Weixian and Zhang Qingzhen made many people dissatisfied.

Once a crack is formed, it will undoubtedly be extremely difficult to repair it. This is exactly what Zhu Youxiao wants, he wants to divide the nobles in Beijing into two factions!

Even if the nobles who should be eliminated cannot be taken down at once, after they are divided into two factions, they will check and balance each other and fight with each other. At that time, Zhu Youxiao will be able to intervene in an appropriate manner and pass time and time again. The attack, in addition to getting rid of those who deserve to be eliminated, can also gradually demonstrate the power of the imperial power!

"Everyone..."

Just when Zhu Chunchen was about to say something more, he saw a figure walking into the main hall. When he saw who it was, Zhu Chunchen was stunned.

"Who is this?"

"I do not know."

"There are no rules at all!"

Under the gaze of all the nobles in the hall, the man lowered his head and walked towards Zhang Weixian in a hurry. Although he knew that he shouldn't do this at this time, he knew too much about the situation.

If he doesn't report it as soon as possible, he won't get any good results.

"Master, something happened."

This sentence made the sitting Zhu Chunchen's heart skip a beat, and the man looked around, then he leaned into Zhu Chunchen's ear and whispered in a low voice.

Snapped!

The sound of the wine cup in Zhu Chunchen's hand hitting the ground caused all the nobles and nobles who were whispering in the hall to stop and look at Zhu Chunchen in tacit understanding.

Get rid of it!

At this time, Zhu Chunchen was completely shocked. Seeing Zhu Chunchen like this, everyone sitting in the hall, including Xu Xigao, stood up one by one, intuitively telling them that something big had happened! !
