The ministers kneeling in the hall even breathed carefully, waiting quietly for King Lu to speak.

Zhu Changzi looked at the empty coarse cloth in his hand, looked at Zhu Dadian without changing his expression, then looked at Ma Shiying, and slowly folded the coarse cloth.

"Ma Shoufu, Zhu Butang?"

"Hey, I'm here, I'm here!"

The two of them were frightened when they heard King Lu calling them. They didn't know what was written on the rag, they just felt as if they were being strangled by the neck and couldn't speak.

"Niu San, you just said that your farmland was enclosed by the Duke of Wei, how did you know?" Zhu Changzi just called Ma Shiying and Zhu Dadian, but ignored them, and turned to Niu San and asked

.

"The spies of the Qing Dynasty wanted to use me, so I also made a request and asked them to help me investigate the matter. Not only the Duke of Wei, but also the nobles of Nanjing used various means to enclose countless lands in Jiangnan and hide themselves.

Under their respective names."

"Oh? You mean it's also available in Zhejiang?"

Niu San nodded, Ma Shiying frowned and looked sideways slightly at the little flag officer who answered fluently, feeling that something was wrong.

Even Lu Ruoteng gradually smelled something unusual at this time. He glanced at the little flag official with some curiosity, and then listened to King Lu's calm tone, and he had some understanding in his heart.

"How can these treasonous and collaborating wimps be allowed to continue sucking the blood of the Ming Dynasty! Is this king right? Zhu Shangshu?" Zhu Changzi stood up, patted the table and asked sharply.

This frightened Zhu Dadian so much that he hurriedly kowtowed and said: "The Holy Ming of Supervising the Country! I thought that we should quickly clear out all the land in Zhejiang and distribute it according to the population!"

But when Zhu Dadian finished speaking, his heart skipped a beat, and he broke into a cold sweat. He was so frightened that he said the wrong thing.

He could already feel the eyes from all around him focused on him, but he couldn't take back the water he threw out, so he could only bite the bullet and look ahead.

Ma Shiying was confused in her heart. King Lu had dug a hole and was waiting for someone to dig in.

It is a well-known fact that local gentry and nobles have invaded and occupied land, and local dependence on these people has become commonplace. The so-called imperial power does not go to the countryside is precisely because of the existence of these people.

They are like maggots under a rotten tree, countless and endless.

At this time, Qingzhang Tiantian does not know how big a storm it will cause.

"What Yan Zhizhen said is absolutely true! Everyone, please get up and sit down. Let's talk about this carefully!" Zhu Changxi raised his hand to let everyone level up.

"Jian Guo, we need to be cautious about this matter. One stone can stir up a thousand waves. What's more, the military war is dangerous now. What if..." Ma Shiying stood up with difficulty and couldn't help but hold up his hands to persuade.

"Ma Shoufu, I am asking you what to do." Zhu Changzi narrowed his eyes. He knew what Ma Shiying was worried about, but he believed that now is the best time. Those local moths would either cooperate with the Qing leader or surrender to the Qing army.

The third way is optional.

Nowadays, King Qin's righteous troops are emerging in various places, and locals are armed. Whoever is short-sighted dares to stand up and disobey orders. There is no need for the court to send troops, there are righteous troops to take action.

The squires in these places are not afraid of the court, but they are afraid of the rebels... Think about who would join the rebel army.

Lu Ruoteng obviously wanted to understand King Lu's thoughts, so he said: "I am reporting to the supervisory state. I think it is just right to redistribute the land and acres mentioned by Zhu Shangshu and implement it at this time!"

"Everyone, I don't need to say anything more about the principle of neither destroying nor establishing. The root of our Ming Dynasty's problems lies in the land. Have you forgotten the lessons of Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong?" Zhu Changzi slapped the table heavily, rather than offending the people.

It is better to offend the squire, after all, he still knows which side has more people.

The six countries are all at peace, can't I still kill a few moths?

"I dare not forget!" Everyone said in unison, cupping their hands.

So, Niu San was like a transparent person, kneeling aside and quietly watching the adults discussing national affairs.

Only Chen Hongfan glanced at him from time to time. He had no idea that Niu San would send such a list. At this moment, he was full of curiosity about the contents.

"Okay, since you all have no objections, I will draft a plan in my spare time and submit it to the cabinet for review and implementation as soon as possible." Zhu Changzi nodded with satisfaction and prepared to return with Li Bao.

When passing in front of Niu San, Zhu Changzi paused, thought for a moment, and ordered to Lu Ruoteng: "I will leave this person to you, and I will take this list first."

"I obey!" Lu Ruoteng stood up and saluted. He specially sent someone to invite King Lu here today in order to prevent these high-ranking officials from putting pressure on him.

"Niu San, you can't escape the death penalty!" Zhu Changzi said as he walked without looking back, his tone was brisk and he seemed to be in a good mood.

The sunlight outside the hall was gentle and the breeze was blowing on his face. As he walked out of the Chief Secretary's Yamen, Zhu Changzi suddenly heard the shocking sound of cannons and couldn't help but turn his head and look north.

At this moment, a knight with an order flag on his back rode his horse and shouted loudly: "Report! The main force of the Qing army has camped five miles north of the city, and Liu Liangzuo's troops have begun to attack the city!"

"Quickly mobilize five thousand direct guards of the Wushan Military Camp to be on standby under the Qingtai Gate!"

After saying that, Zhu Changzi quickly got on his horse without waiting for Li Bao's help, and galloped towards the north of the city with dozens of guards.

Beicheng Tower.

Zhang Guowei is personally in charge, and the cannons are rumbling. Liu Liangzuo's troops have not yet begun to attack the city, and the two armies are firing at each other with artillery.

However, Liu Liangzuo's troops did not have heavy artillery, only various Folan machine guns, which so far have not caused too many casualties to the Ming army.

Fang Guoan was so dizzy that he was so angry that he directly fired the cannon himself.

Artillery Chief Liu constantly corrects the angle based on his years of experience.

"Damn, Huama Liu, I have to blow your eggs to pieces." Fang Guoan cursed and wiped the black gunpowder on his face, glaring at the Qing army formation below the city.

Under the city, Liu Liangzuo was looking north from time to time. The main force had already set up camp, but the Wuzhen Chaoha camp had not arrived yet.

The military order from Prince Duduo of Yu has been sent, ordering him to attack first, but without the support of heavy artillery, if his troops are attacked by ants, how many people will be left at the end of the day?

So he can only pretend to be louder than thunder.

"General, how many rounds have we fired, is it time to charge?" asked a tall and thick-looking lieutenant general.

"Are you stupid?" Liu Liangzuo rolled his eyes and asked.

The cessation of artillery fire is a gap for the barrel to cool down.

A dark head appeared on the top of the city. It was Fang Guoan who was high from the cannon fire. He shouted loudly: "Hua Ma Liu, come here!"

When Liu Liangzuo heard the shouting, he stared at the city head with cold eyes, and then scanned the army behind him. He saw a faint expression of frustration on the soldiers' faces, knowing that if he didn't attack, he might lose his military morale.

So he turned to the deputy general who had just spoken and said: "Go, take three thousand people, and give me the arrogance of killing Fang!"

"General, I obey!" The deputy general handed over his hands, rode out, and fired up the three thousand infantry of the front army.

As soon as the order was given, it was like a dyke collapsed, and the soldiers came out like a tide, carrying the ladder and running towards the city wall.

Fang Guoan at the top of the city took a look and knew that the war had officially begun.

Soon, arrows rained down from the top of the city, gold juice fell like a waterfall, and the shouts of killing were deafening.

Zhu Changzi, who had just arrived at the Genshan Gate, had not yet dismounted from his horse when a huge boulder flew towards him and hit the ground not far away, sending up debris.

The guards reacted quickly and surrounded Zhu Changzi, but he was not hurt at all.

But Zhu Changzi was distracted, and his ears were filled with the sound of gold and iron, the sound of swords clashing, shouts of killing, wailing, and cursing, all in a noisy atmosphere.

He hasn't heard such a sound for a long time.

"How can I say that I have no clothes, but I share the same robe with you..."
