The people from the Zhou family couldn't figure out why they would come to arrest people?

At this time, at the gate of the Zhou family.

Cui Yingyuan stood there, with the Jinyiwei behind him, who was like a wolf and a tiger.

The entire Zhou family was already in chaos, and many people began to escape, but they were all stopped by the Jinyiwei.

Some people also wanted to come up and say something to Cui Yingyuan and wanted to give some explanation.

After all, in the eyes of the Zhou family, they have already done everything ahead and there will be no big problems. The conditions have been agreed upon, so why did they suddenly turn against each other?

This was something they didn't expect. In their opinion, are there any misunderstandings here? Maybe it's enough to just explain it.

But Cui Yingyuan didn't give them any chance to explain.

You should know that this time the Jinyiwei came to arrest not gentry who violated the law, but thieves from the Yinxiang Sect. Of course, they would make a bigger noise, otherwise they would think you were framed.

So Cui Yingyuan said directly: "Go to the mansion to arrest people. If there is any resistance, kill them without any slightest."

"yes."

Behind him, countless Jinyiwei shouted loudly and rushed into the Zhou family without any politeness.

A housekeeper came over at the door, and the Jinyiwei went up and knocked him down directly. The two Jinyiweisers held the housekeeper and stuffed their mouths and grabbed them.

Want to talk?

You can't let you speak. If you really want to say it, then go to the Jinyiwei prison to talk!

The entire arrest process did not last long. For the Jinyiwei, this kind of arrest is really easy and not difficult at all.

So they quickly captured all the people, and the Zhou family was also sealed off by the guards. The Jinyiwei took the Zhou family members back in a mighty manner.

After the person was taken back, the Jinyiwei did not talk nonsense, and directly separated the person and began to interrogate quickly.

Zhou Fusheng, the head of the Zhou family, was brought up first.

Cui Yingyuan looked at Zhou Fusheng with a hint of curiosity in his eyes.

This is a man in his fifties. His robes are very luxurious, and it can be seen that they have taken care of them with care.

He has fair face and small eyes, but he is more energetic. He can tell that he is a shrewd and capable person.

Cui Yingyuan did not ask Zhou Fusheng to be hung up and tortured, but asked him to sit opposite him and even asked someone to serve him tea.

"You should know me, right?" Cui Yingyuan said slowly as he looked at Zhou Fusheng.

At this time, Zhou Fusheng's face was already ugly. He was a smart person. It can be seen from Cui Yingyuan's official uniform that this person is now the commander of the Jinyiwei, which means that Xu Xianchun is finished.

Xu Xianchun has agreed to what he did before, and the two sides have agreed to discuss it. Now that the leader of the Jinyiwei has changed, he has been arrested, which can only explain one thing: Xu Xianchun is finished. Since Xu Xianchun is finished, his fate may not be very good.

Zhou Fusheng looked at Cui Yingyuan, nodded and said, "Of course I know you."

"I'm very curious about you." Cui Yingyuan said casually: "It's really surprising that such a great man as Mr. Xu was finally broken into your hands. Our Jinyiwei is all the confidants of Mr. Xu, especially me. So let's not waste our time. Your family has been arrested, so it's better to be happy."

"What do you want to ask?" Zhou Fusheng looked at Cui Yingyuan and said slowly.

"You should know what I want to ask." Cui Yingyuan said with a smile: "Before this, I want to tell you that you were arrested this time not because of reselling disaster relief food, but because of participating in the scented rebellion of the Winter Sorrow Cult."

"Do you know? Your Majesty actually likes people who follow the rules the most. Whatever Your Majesty likes, our Jinyiwei will do whatever you want. No matter what you do, it is important to abide by the rules."

While speaking, Cui Yingyuan stood up, walked to Zhou Fusheng, reached out and patted his shoulder and said, "As long as you abide by the rules, our Jinyiwei will naturally abide by the rules. Reselling disaster relief food is your own sin. Wouldn't you admit it safely?"

"You have to make trouble. Now, Lord Xu's official position is gone. Do you know what Lord Xu has in His Majesty? This is the person promoted by His Majesty himself. If you let Lord Xu do such a thing, that is to lose His Majesty's face."

"Your Majesty's face cannot be lost. Our Jinyiwei will make up for this face. You did this, so you will naturally come from you. So now your crime has become a treason for participating in the scented sect."

After saying this, Cui Yingyuan laughed first.

As for Zhou Fusheng, his face was gray and his originally bright eyes became gray.

Obviously, he also knew what Cui Yingyuan said meant, and realized that he had done something stupid.

"So now, please tell me everything you know and wait for Your Majesty's ruling. In this world, only Your Majesty can judge people. If Your Majesty wants to judge you, you should wait. If you dare to resist, you will be in return for this situation."

"If you resist this time, I'm afraid your family will go to Huangquan Road together. Our Jinyiwei is not a person who is not particular. Don't worry, your family will definitely be neat."

Zhou Fusheng raised his head and said in a hoarse voice: "Can I save my family's life if I say it?"

"It's hard to say." Cui Yingyuan said with a smile: "It depends on what Your Majesty thinks. But for you, I have no other way to go. Of course, I can choose to die together. After all, it's good that the whole family is neat and orderly."

"I said," Zhou Fusheng didn't ask anything, and seemed to have not heard Cui Yingyuan's words. He nodded and said.

"I knew you were a smart person, so I wouldn't torture you anymore? Come on, tell me everything you know."

After saying this, Cui Yingyuan winked at the document next to him and ordered: "Come on it."

When the sun rises again, it will be a new day, and Jining City will survive from its deep sleep.

Yesterday, the Zhou family was arrested and there was a lot of noise in Jining's city. Countless people were in panic. They wanted to run away, but they couldn't leave.

It is difficult for the entire Jining City to leave the city now, especially those from wealthy families.

The news has not been heard so far, which has caused more people to panic.

However, some smart people ran to the yamen and knelt down, admitting that they were reselling food and asking the court to punish them.

For a moment, it was complicated and no one could see the situation clearly.

However, there are always people who are well-informed. The reason why the Zhou family was arrested yesterday has been found out. It is said that the Zhou family participated in the rebellion of the Wenxiang Sect.

Some people don’t believe it, some people are surprised, and some people are both ill and ignorant.

For a moment, all eyes were focused on one place.

Zhu Youzhao's residence.

Zhu Youxiao slept very early last night and slept well.

For Zhu Youxiao, this is a rare good sleep since leaving Beijing, so I woke up quite early this morning and was in good spirits.

Under Chen Hong's service, Zhu Youxiao had breakfast.

While eating, Chen Hong told Zhu Youxiao about yesterday, and all the big and small things were reporting to Zhu Youxiao.

At the end, Chen Hong said: "The Emperor and the Jinyiwei have sent the news. The Zhou family has already interrogated them and they confessed to what they have done."

"At the same time, they gave a list of people who were bribed in the capital. This time, they all joined forces to resell the imperial court's food. The Kong family was doing it on the imperial court, and the Zhou family was doing it on the businessman."

"Take it over and take a look." Zhu Youxiao took the last sip of porridge, picked up the silk parfait beside him and wiped his mouth and said.

Chen Hong did not dare to neglect, so he hurriedly walked to Zhu Youxiao with a list and respectfully handed it to Zhu Youxiao.

He reached out to take the list and Zhu Youxiao quickly looked at it.

As he looked at it, Zhu Youxiao smiled and said, "I really didn't expect that there were quite a lot of people on this. Wei Zhongxian's nephew was also on it, and he did it very thoroughly."

"Xu Xianchun's son, even my father-in-law's family, and this, the parents' families of the two imperial concubines. I have to say that these people are really capable. They are all new nobles in the court, and it's really a lot of money to buy them."

"Look, look, this silver is like you don't have money. It's amazing, amazing!"

Although Zhu Youxiao sighed and his tone was also full of surprise, Chen Hong fought a cold war.

He knew that the emperor was really angry, and at the same time he was shocked by the courage of these people. But he probably understood why these people did this.

When the new emperor ascended the throne, his power changed, so naturally there were people who were above and behind.

It is difficult for civil servants to reach out, after all, civil servants have been in chaos before. Although it is no longer in chaos now, those people are the emperor's confidant ministers, and some things are difficult to do, and even if they do, the effect may not be good.

But the nobles and nobles are different. These people are poor and rich at the beginning, with shallow eyes and courage. The most important thing is that they are a little stupid. As long as they coax them a little, they will transfer them all into it. It can be said that they are very thoughtful.

At this time, Zhu Youxiao said again: "Look at the son protected by Xu Xianchun."

"Good guy, I made a fortune in the grain, but the grain merchant who collected the grain had no money to pay for it, so he could only use a house in the capital to pay off the debt. After collecting it at a high price, he had already made a fortune in it."

"As a result, there was no money to collect grain, so I could only use the houses in the capital to pay off the debt. The two large houses with three courtyards were all in good locations. There was also a garden in the west of the city, which paid 72,000 taels of silver."

"Chen Hong, is this money enough to buy a garden?"

"It's not enough to go back to the emperor." Chen Hong said quickly: "Looking at the locations of these yards, one yard should be almost the same."

Zhu Youxiao nodded and said with a smile: "It's really a wise man, and he dares to collect any money."

"But these people don't have any new ideas for gifts. They give antiques, calligraphy and paintings, gardens, and houses. Look at my father-in-law, Mi Fu's calligraphy and paintings of the Song Dynasty, and 120 taels of silver. It's interesting to sell this thing as a fake."

Chen Hong was frightened while listening, and finally said with a thorn intent: "Prince, Taikangbo may not know, he really thought he had found a bargain."

Zhu Youxiao glanced at Chen Hong and said with a smile: "What are you worried about?"

"I don't worry about anything." After hearing this, Chen Hong knelt on the ground with a thud.

"It seems that the queen is still very popular." Zhu Youxiao stood up with a smile, moved his muscles and said, "Tell Cui Yingyuan, just do what you should do."

"Yes, the emperor." Chen Hong quickly agreed, and his heart began to observe silence for the Zhou family.

The so-called "doing what to do" means there is no special example.

You should know that the Jinyiwei arrested people for crimes of treason. In such a situation, he would do whatever he should do, and he would be convicted of treason.

As for those who colluded with the Zhou family, they could not escape. They thought they were smart, so they bribed the people around the emperor, and asked Xu Xianchun to lie to them in front of the emperor. Such a thing has touched the emperor's bottom line, and the fate of these people can be imagined.

Since it is an imperially-defined case, there is nothing to say.

After Chen Hong left, Zhu Youxiao walked to the door, slowly raised his head, and looked at the gloomy sky outside, feeling a little confused.
