"The order was passed, and the Dongchang immediately sent someone to the Fu Palace to capture Deng Ruochang and strictly examine his motives!"

Zhu Youxiao ordered with a serious expression.

"I obey the order!"

Wei Zhongxian replied very cooperatively.

Next, Wei Zhongxian immediately arranged for Yang Huan to take a large number of people from the East Factory to Henan on the grounds of ordering to investigate the regicide case.

All of this was naturally a conspiracy that Zhu Youxiao asked Wei Zhongxian to make.

Because these profiteers who need to be removed by Zhu Youxiao’s reform are now very timid and know that the emperor is not easy to mess with.

After all, even the Donglin Party and the gentry in Jiangnan, the southwest chieftains, salt merchants, and Nanjing nobles behind them have been dealt with by the emperor enough.

Therefore, few of these people dare to silly hit the emperor's gun, and now they are honest and do not commit any trouble and do not give Zhu Youxiao a chance to suppress them.

For example, the current King of Blessings.

Even though Zhu Youxiao had confiscated many of his industries, forced Concubine Zheng to death, and strictly handled the Zheng clan, and even ordered King Fu to make up for the 1.8 million taels of silver that caused losses to the court's salt profit.

But King Fu was still very obsessed and did not rebel. He only ruthlessly ruthlessly asked Zhu Youxiao to let him go to Beijing to receive his crime on the grounds of being sick.

In short, the vested interests of the Ming Dynasty seem to be becoming very smart now, and they no longer dare to provoke Zhu Youxiao.

So, Zhu Youxiao, the emperor who wanted to reform and eliminate evil, had to take the initiative to find trouble and plot to force these people to commit crimes, or find reasons to deal with these vested interests who have become turtles.

From the perspective of vested interests such as Fuwang who voluntarily admit defeat, the current emperor Zhu Youxiao is really hateful. They are obviously very honest in order to protect their existing vested interests, but the emperor still refuses to let them go, bullying them in different ways and deprive them of their interests.

But for Zhu Youxiao and the ministers who followed him, the emperor had to do what he had to do for the country, for the people of the world, and for the long-term stability of the Ming Dynasty. Right or wrong is no longer important. What is important is whether he can complete the political ambition of reforming and eliminating evil.

Anyway, unlike those who were civil servants, officials, nobles, and vassal kings who took the initiative to trouble Zhu Youxiao, now Zhu Youxiao takes the initiative to trouble these people.

Zhu Youxiao began to take the initiative to attack and create conspiracies.

After all, the emperor Zhu Youxiao already controls a strong enough army and a group of new interest groups with interests tied to them.

Therefore, Zhu Youxiao has the capital to take the initiative to find fault.

The news that Han Du was assassinated and fell into the water naturally spread.

The first person to learn about this news were the salt merchants in Yangzhou not far from Huai'an, where Zhu Youzhai stationed.

Since the last time Zhu Youxiao was cleaned up, the salt merchants in Yangzhou have become very honest now, fearing that they will be blackmailed by Zhu Youxiao again. Therefore, when Zhu Youxiao arrived in Yangzhou on his way back to Beijing, these salt merchants consciously went out of the city to greet each other for a hundred miles, and even took the initiative to offer various rare treasures to please the emperor and avoid making the emperor angry.

And because these salt merchants performed well when he came to Yangzhou on his way back to Beijing, Zhu Youxiao did not make any more difficult for these salt merchants.

But even though Zhu Youxiao did not make things difficult for these salt merchants, when the news of Han Dynasty assassination and falling into the water reached Yangzhou, these Yangzhou salt merchants were still a little worried.

"This time, Mr. Han Ge was assassinated into the water. It is said that King Fu's man wanted to murder the emperor, but the emperor actually did not take the water route, but was still taking the dry road, so the assassin assassin assassinated the wrong person!"

At this time, salt merchant Yao Sunju talked about this to other salt merchants.

"No, I heard that the court will reform and open up China and France this time, and will send salt entries directly to the officials of the border town. In the future, if the salt merchants want to change the salt entries, they have to transport grain to the border town and exchange salt entries from the officials of the border town. The ones who proposed this reform proposal were Ge Lao Han! Do you think this makes the emperor think that our salt merchants are interfering with it and seeking opportunities to blackmail our salt merchants' money?"

Salt merchant Ding Kuicheng waved his hand and said another version.

"If this is true, the court will be a little too greedy. We were blackmailed 30% of our family business last time! Besides, how dare we, the salt merchants, do we dare to do such a thing now? If we are found out, we will be killed by the nine clans! In my opinion, 80% is the intentional conspiracy set by the person (Zhu Youxiao) in the Ninth Heaven to suppress our salt merchants."

Salt merchant Jin Maotai said hurriedly.

"Suppress our salt merchants?"

Yao Sunju couldn't help asking, and hurriedly said, "How else do the imperial court want to suppress it? Is it really going to conquer our home?"

"It should be for the purpose of opening China and France this time. If anyone of us salt merchants is dissatisfied with this new policy and makes trouble, we will say that we are involved in this assassination case, and then we will search our homes and exterminate the clan!"

Jin Maotai said.

Ding Kuicheng smiled helplessly: "How dare you do this!"

Then, Ding Kuicheng said unhappily: "But the reform of China and France is indeed a headache. If we salt merchants want to continue to make salt profits in the future, they will have to move to the border town for farming, otherwise they will have to bear huge grain transportation costs. How could Mr. Han make such a hateful suggestion!"

"This is taking advantage of the merchants and the people! But what else can we do? We can only accept our fate! However, because of this, maybe some of our salt merchants did this because they were angry. Now we can only hope that the court can let us go to the border towns by letting us transport grain like before the Hongzhi Dynasty. We recognize it, but don't really search our house and exterminate the clan!"

Jin Maotai said.

"well!"

Ding Kuichu sighed.

Yao Sunju also sighed: "A man is guilty of being guilty of being a treasure!"

...

"You mean that Mr. Han was assassinated and then found out in the East Factory that it was instructed by someone from this palace?"

After learning that Mr. Han was assassinated and that Zhu Youxiao ordered the arrest of his people, King Fu stood up in horror.

Ye Chuchun nodded and replied: "There is a true news, Your Highness, even if you don't want to rebel, this tyrant will give you a charge of regicide. The student has said it long ago, Your Highness, what are you still hesitating about!"

"A common man is guilty of being guilty of possessing a treasure. Although I am not a common man, I still do not let him go because it hinders Zhu Youxiao's eyes."

King Fu was almost crying, his eyes became wet. He had never suffered such grievances before. For a moment, he even started to curse:

"Zhu Youxiao! You tyrant, because your father died, you united with your treacherous ministers to bully me like this! I wish I could eat your flesh, drink your blood, and sleep with your skin! You bastard! Why are you so bad! Since childhood, no one has bullied me like this! Woo woo!"

And then, King Fu really cried, crying heart-wrenchingly.

After crying, King Fu resolutely said: "I decided to raise an army!"

...

"I am very bad! But I am saving the Ming Dynasty. If I don't treat you like this now, in the future, the Ming Dynasty will be destroyed because of you, the country and family will be destroyed. At least I will not kill you and make you a blessing and fortune banquet. It can also be given the whole body of you as a vassal king!"

After Zhu Youxiao learned about Zhu Changxun's words before he decided to rebel, he couldn't help but complain a few words in his heart.
