The Head of the Ming Dynasty Spared His Life

Just don’t look at the emperor’s anger like a lion at this moment, but if he blindly promotes a big prison, ransacks his home and arrests people, he will definitely offend people greatly. In the future, these officials will counterattack and count.

Seeing that the two were still a little confused, Yan Song smiled slightly: "If you want to do your job well, the key is to put yourself in the shoes of the emperor and think about it for the emperor."

"Huh?" The two continued to be confused.

"Hey, how did you mess around before?" Yan Song said earnestly: "Have you ever thought about the emperor's mood?"

"How does the emperor feel?" The two looked at each other.

"That's right." Yan Song said with a hatred of iron and steel: "This is the first time the emperor went on a tour, and the result was not smooth, and he held back his anger. You almost lost your life. You go to look up the 21 histories (the Ming Dynasty only had 21 histories, and modern times only have 24 histories), this kind of thing is unprecedented! The resentment and anger in the emperor's heart can be imagined!"

Lu Bing and Huang Jin nodded.

Thinking about it this way, Jiajing is indeed a bit miserable.

In Yangzhou, he was deceived by salt merchants and the magistrate, in Nanjing, he was cheated by officials, in Suzhou, he was colluded with Japanese pirates by a big clan, and was almost assassinated. In Hangzhou, he was deceived by officials again, and they all left Jiangnan. After showing off, he encountered even greater danger and almost died!

Whoever changed, everyone should be angry!

"That's right. Even Xiaomin will be angry when encountering this kind of thing. How can the emperor not hold back his anger?" Lu Bing nodded deeply.

"Zhen~ Prime Minister is all the parties directly involved in the treason. They have already died, or they are far away." Yan Song said lightly: "But the emperor is full of anger, and there is no place to vent...so, What the emperor wants is not a real appearance, but a way to balance his old man's mood. And the bigger the momentum we make here, in fact, it is a kind of protection for these officials and gentry whose homes have been confiscated! They will come back to it in the future Come, you will definitely be grateful to us Dade!"

"Ah?" Lu Bing and Huang Jin were even more confused.

Go to copy their homes by yourself, and they will still be grateful to Dade?

How can this be?

Seeing that neither of them believed it, Yan Song laughed loudly: "Think about it, the so-called emperor bleeds for thousands of miles when he is angry. The emperor gave us a chance to investigate this case. We can just ransack the house and arrest people, but the charges are the same. It's very light, it doesn't kill people indiscriminately, and if we put it down gently, the emperor's grievances will not be released, and he will definitely set up a big prison himself. At that time, the emperor will kill people instead of arresting people!"

Lu Bing and Huang Jin were fascinated by what they heard. It turned out that we three cruel officials have such great sentiments.

"We use thunderbolts to show the heart of a Bodhisattva!" Yan Song said with a look of compassion: "As long as those high-ranking officials, dignitaries from the south of the Yangtze River, and big businessmen who are included in the list know a little bit, and are willing to spend money to avoid disaster, or hand over their properties, we will But he picked it up heavily, put it down lightly, and passed this test for them with very light charges. But if you don’t understand, don’t cooperate, and risk your life and money, then don’t blame us for being ruthless!”

Only then did Lu Bing and Huang Jin understand Yan Song's intentions.

Nima is planning to take advantage of this big treason case to sweep across the southeast and blackmail everything.

Southeast officials, big clans, big merchants, and big merchants are all within the scope of his blackmail.

Those who are sensible can avoid disaster by breaking their wealth and handing over a lot of family property to escape catastrophe.

Not willing to give up money?Then wait and risk your life!At that time, people and money will be empty!

Only then did the two understand why Yan Song was so "kind" and pulled them to do it together.

Because of this, it is absolutely outrageous.

The three giants, blackmailing thousands of families and robbing everything together, are much more powerful and less stressful than Yan Song doing it alone.

Chapter 375 List of Confiscated Homes [2]

Lu Bing and Huang Jin, who had already admired Yan Song, made up their minds that even if Yan Song complained about Jiajing tomorrow, they would follow suit.

The three evil forces, talking and laughing happily, decided on a list.

The nine noble families in the south of the Yangtze River are all honored to be on the list.

One brilliant surname after another, arranged one by one from beginning to end.

"No.1, Pujiang County, Zhejiang Province, Zheng's family, the first one in the south of the Yangtze River with Emperor Hongwu's personal writing."

"No.2, Haining County, Zhejiang Province, Chen family, a family of sea merchants, it is said that they have a deep collusion with General Pingtian Xu Zhi."

"No.3, the Lu family in Nanzhili, Jiangsu Province, a family of high-ranking officials and big landlords. Since the Eastern Han Dynasty, they have been a famous family in the south of the Yangtze River."

"No.4, Suzhou, Jiangsu, Xie's family, a descendant of Xie An, a famous master in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and the former Yan of Wang Xietang, Xie's family who flew into the homes of ordinary people."

"No.5, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, Yu Family..."

Yan Song looked at the long list and smiled. 15

To put it bluntly, these big clans, big businessmen, and big landlords have mastered the politics, economy, and culture of the entire Jiangnan, and their influence radiates to every aspect of society.To put it bluntly, instead of saying that the sky of Ming Dynasty belongs to the emperor, it is better to say that it belongs to these hidden big clans.

They have an arrogant saying that Jiangbei belongs to Emperor Yanjing and listens to Beijing; Jiangnan belongs to the big clan and listens to the Nine Great Clans.

Although the Jiajing Southern Tour has shaken a lot of their power, although the Nine Great Gentlemen also sent patriarchs and some important figures during the disaster relief performance in Hangzhou, which can be regarded as giving Yan Song face, but Yan Song knows that these losses are of great importance to the Nine Greats. The gentry, including the more than 100 big clans below, are nothing but a drop in the bucket, without any injuries!

Just relying on the mere 1000 million taels of disaster relief money, do you want to cover up the crimes of conspiracy and assassination of the emperor twice in the past?

It's impossible!

It is true that Chen Shimei, Yiwang, and Bailianjiao did the treason, but it is absolutely impossible to say that these southeast nobles have nothing to do with it.

For example, how did the Japanese pirates get the flag on the grain ship?What happened to Si Hutouqi, the capital transfer envoy disguised by King Yi's army?

The entire southeast is under the control of these big nobles and officials, and any troubles can't escape their eyes!

At least, these great gentry must have heard about King Yi and the White Lotus Sect's army secretly going to Chengtian Mansion.

But they did not report to the court!

Not reporting this is harboring criminals and hiding them from reporting!
