Chapter 181 Xu Guixiang panicked
Zhu Youlang admitted his fault. In his opinion, it is too normal. Who can do without mistakes without sages? If you make mistakes, you are wrong. The emperor is also a human being. Who can not make mistakes? Knowing the mistakes and being able to correct them is a good comrade.
But his actions were another touch in the hearts of the ministers.
Few emperors admit their mistakes so openly, for fear of admitting that they lose face and dignity in front of their ministers. Sometimes they have to execute them incorrectly, as if they are not like this, they cannot show their wisdom or their authority.
Little did they know that such an emperor would make his ministers complain endlessly.
Zhu Youlang's courage to admit his mistakes did make Wu Bing and Huang Zongxi feel deeply - such a wise master is really rare in a thousand years.
The three of them stood up, Chen Bowen quietly retreated to the back, slapped the dust on his body a few times, and said nothing.
"Your Majesty, I think this is a good thing. This shows that the new policy is effective, and some people are already impatient. This should be explained in the next step to appease the people." Wu Bing said.
"Well, this is right. The overall situation cannot be chaotic. The more chaotic the more it becomes, the more it falls into the trap of the enemy." Zhu Youlang agreed with his opinion.
"Your Majesty, these days, several Grand Secretary of the Cabinet have been busy and can be forgiven for some negligence. Don't blame them too hard, right? Just ask them to solve the case within a specified time limit and capture the murderer." Huang Zongxi said.
"I must be tired, I must be a little tired. I don't know this yet. I guess those who finally felt relieved when I left the city, so I relaxed my vigilance. I don't understand. What a glory it would be if Chen Zhizhong and Hu Sanwang were met yesterday? There must be villains secretly jealousy and evil. Qu Shisi, Chen Zizhuang and Ma Jixiang have no political agility at all. Don't make any arrangements? Reward if you have any merits and punish if you have any mistakes. This is my principle. Although Qu Shisi, Chen Zizhuang and Ma Jixiang are not without achievements, they do not punish them and cannot appease the resentment of the people. What should I do if others make mistakes in the future? Or not to punish them?" Zhu Youlang disagrees with Huang Zongxi's view of being mixed.
"Bo Wen, drafting an order. First, such a big murder case occurred, which is a shame for me. I ordered Qu Shisi, Chen Zizhuang and Ma Jixiang to solve the case within three days; Second, Guangzhou City should be stable, not chaotic, and not chaotic, and not create momentum to create panic. It should be loose on the outside and tight on the inside, and the purpose is not to affect the lives of the people; Third, please comfort the Chen and Hu families, protect their descendants' personal and property safety; Fourth, Qu Shisi, Chen Zizhuang and Ma Jixiang neglect their duties and drown their holy grace, and they are fined for one year, each demoted to one level, and remained in the original position to make meritorious service with crimes."
After dictating the decree orally, Zhu Youlang stood up and said, "After all these things, set off immediately."
...
The army set off on the road again, but Zhu Youlang did not get on the imperial chariot, but rode on the horse.
It's better to ride on a horse than to hold your breath in the chariot
The weather is sunny, and various green plants sway on both sides of the road, with mountains and undulating in the distance.
In the beautiful scenery, Zhu Youlang was unwilling to watch it and was in a particularly heavy mood.
The affairs of Chen Zhizhong and Hu Sanwang made him deeply feel that the road ahead will not be smooth, and he will encounter many obstacles from light and darkness. He should be more careful and be vigilant at all times. If you don’t expect it, you will fall apart.
"It's really a shameful person. Who's so fucking me? Isn't this a slap in the face? Okay, don't let me catch you. Just let me catch you, I won't let you take my surname!"
Zhu Youlang felt deeply saddened when he thought of Chen and Hu, and his teeth were itchy with hatred.
...
As Huang Zongxi expected, the case was solved very quickly. Only one day later, the next morning, Qu Shixi's second memorial arrived.
Zhu Youlang only learned the truth after reading it.
It turned out that the person who committed the crime was Xu Guixiang, the leader of the pirate.
Xu Guixiang led more than 50 people to sneak into Guangzhou more than ten days ago and hid in a big house that Huang Yue had secretly set up earlier. This house was secretly set up by Huang Yue without his father Huang Rizhang, so when the house was searched, the house was missed.
Xu Guixiang was cut off from the sea wealth route by Lin Cha, and the livelihoods of more than 2,000 brothers under his command immediately became embarrassed.
He had long hated Zhu Youlang for hating him so much that he was itchy. Huang Yue came to him and hit him in his mind. Just as he wanted to start an army and enter Guangzhou, he heard that the Huang family was arrested and beheaded, which immediately gave up Xu Guixiang the idea of sneaking into Guangzhou.
When Huang Yue heard the news, he felt heartbroken and fainted. After waking up, he heard that his father was arrested for colluding with Qing soldiers. He was so angry that he cursed: "Zhu Youlang, my father is treason, but he will never collude with foreign invaders! In order to block the public, you actually came up with such a vicious plan. I, Huang Yue, and you are irreconcilable!"
Since then, he has been tempted by Xu Guixiang every day and asked him to send troops to attack Guangzhou.
Xu Guixiang didn't dare to take risks, so he had to use the excuse of "no time" to delay as much as possible.
After a long time, Xu Guixiang became anxious. Lin Cha's naval army was active on the sea day by day, specifically to eliminate pirates, Shibi, Ma Yunsheng, and Zheng Tingqiu's men were all more or less damaged. I heard that the three families no longer dared to move on the sea surface of Guangdong and went east quietly.
I was very careful, but I just hid in the Wanshan Islands and did not dare to move, so I avoided the damage. However, hiding like this is not a solution. When will it be the end?
At this moment, news came out of Guangzhou that the emperor wanted to lead the imperial army to personally expedition. Huang Yue believed that the opportunity had come, and he should take advantage of the opportunity of the government's busy conducting the imperial army to personally expedition and enter Guangzhou, find opportunities to act, or be able to succeed.
Xu Guixiang was also anxious and agreed to Huang Yue's request. However, for the sake of stability, he did not bring Huang Yue, but only brought his fifty confidants and quietly entered Guangzhou.
After Xu Guixiang entered Guangzhou, he was determined to assassinate Zhu Youlang, but found that the palace guards were very strict and he had no idea how to start. Zhu Youlang's travel was also irregular. He spent most of his time in the palace and occasionally traveled, so Xu Guixiang only found out later.
The assassination road is blocked, so Xu Guixiang looked at the route Zhu Youlang was in his personal expedition. It was like walking on the sea road, and there might be a chance. Although Lin Cha's army was supporting him, the storm was changing above the sea. Who knows if there would be any storm? If there was really a storm, maybe his chance would come.
But unexpectedly, Zhu Youlang cared about his life very much and did not go by sea, but by land.
In desperation, Xu Guixiang came up with the poisonous plan to "kill the chicken to warn the monkey", killed Chen Zhizhong's family, and burned Hu Sanwang's house.
The massacre went smoothly, but he did not expect that the government's reaction was very fast. As soon as he left the Chen Mansion, a large number of officers and soldiers arrived. Then the city gate was closed and the whole city was rushing.
