Chapter 254: Bankruptcy
The mansion of Yingguo was already in a mess. Just when the Wu brothers went to the Ministry of Justice to file a complaint, Cheng Chumo and a group of people rushed into the mansion of Yingguo, shouting to fight and kill to find Wu Yuanqing and Wu Yuanshuang.
Why did Cheng Chumo cause trouble for these two brothers? For nothing else, it was because of Changle House.
When Du Shaoqing discussed with the emperor to pay for the Changle House, the emperor strongly supported it. Du Shaoqing promised not to let Cheng Chumo help, so he asked Cheng Chumo for his contribution in front of his father-in-law Li Er. Li Er appointed Cheng Chumo to lead 500 troops as the deputy of Princess Changle and to make every effort to build the Changle House.
Although these five hundred soldiers were broken, Cheng Chumo Kele was a mess. Like them, the second generation of officials, they all came from military generals, and after any accident, they would all have to lead troops in the army after they became adults. Among these people, except for the older Qin Huaidao, who had already joined the army, the others were still in the training period of military service, and no one was qualified to lead troops alone.
Although these people are under the title of Prince Consort and Duwei every day, they actually have no real power. They are just a name to prove that they are the emperor's son-in-law. If they cannot lead troops in the army, no one can respect them.
Unexpectedly, the emperor was so generous this time and gave him five hundred subordinates directly. Cheng Yaojin knew about it and shouted for his son, and asked him to go to the Right Martial Guard to select excellent soldiers. According to Lao Cheng's intention, his son led five hundred troops to practice for a year and a half, and was about to be transferred to the army for general training. This progress was far beyond that of other children of the same age.
It was precisely because of this relationship that Cheng Chumo heard that Changle House was attacked by two insignificant playboys, and got angry on the spot. He led his five hundred subordinates to directly train in actual combat, and then attacked the Wu brothers. If you dare to attack Changle House, we will dare to tackle your Duke Ying Mansion.
However, when their team came, they did not find these two culprits. Cheng Chumo thought, wouldn’t it be a joke if I send troops to do nothing?
He found the housekeeper of Duke Ying's Mansion and asked where the Mingwu brothers had gone. The housekeeper replied that he had gone to the lobby of the Ministry of Justice to file a complaint.
Cheng Chumo was furious, "How brave, you, a servant, dare to sue the Ministry of Justice for complaints and scare me? He passed our military order and rushed into the Duke Ying's mansion to search for me. He would dig three feet into the ground and catch the two disasters that bullied our Changle House. If someone dares to stop him, he will kill him without hesitation!"
Well, this guy really took the chicken feathers as a command arrow and called himself a general after only five hundred soldiers. He was just looking for revenge. Where did he get such a murderous spirit?
So the Duke of Ying was killed in by five hundred fierce soldiers like wolves and tigers. Although there were some guards in the Duke of Ying, they were basically frightening fools. How could they dare to stop these regular soldiers who killed people and saw blood?
A quarter of an hour later, the deputy came to report: "General, I searched all of you, but no trace of the brothers of Duke Ying Guo."
Cheng Chumo raised his eyebrows and said, "I'm really going to complain." It's really abominable. The two villains have done evil, but they still dare to complain? Is the thief calling for catching the thief? It's outrageous!
"So have any abnormalities found?"
The deputy hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "Yes, we found the Wu family's silver treasury, which contained countless silver, money, silk, and several houses."
"What? Let's go, let's take a look!" Cheng Chumo's heart moved, and he was thinking about something while walking.
Seeing the mountain of money, Cheng Chumo knew that this was the life savings of Duke Ying Guoshi Warrior, who left it to two scums, was really a waste of things.
With a smile, Cheng Chumo made a bold decision and said to his five hundred soldiers: "Move all these things away, and don't leave a single one, and move them to Changle House. These two people have done many evil things. This time, they have hurt the children of Changle House too deeply and must be compensated. These moves away to pay off their debts."
When the butler heard this, he rushed up and cried and begged, "General, you can't. This is the master's savings for the rest of his life. If you take them away, how can the people of the Wu family survive?"
"Get out of here, we don't want food, we won't starve you to death!
Why don't you ask the Wu Yuanqing brothers, when they took people and dogs to bully a group of unarmed children, they thought about how the children survived?" Cheng Chumo kicked him away.
At this time, his deputy was also hesitant, "General, we have a reasonable and reasonable position to lead people to fight. If this soldiers rob property, they will not be able to take action. Maybe they will be sued."
This was right. Cheng Chumo listened to the advice and thought for a moment. He summoned a person and whispered the order. The man quickly left. In less than half an hour, a large number of people came to Ying Guogong's mansion, all of whom were lonely, old and weak, who came from Changle House, and were in groups.
"Hurry, hurry up, these are the losses that the Duke of Yingguo promised to compensate us. Don't be polite, they all moved back to support everyone in Changle House for a winter." The subordinates shouted orders and encouraged them. Everyone rushed forward and moved all the money from the five rooms in less than half an hour.
This is Cheng Chumo's countermeasure. He and his soldiers did not act, but only let the indignant people called from Changle House take action. Even if it spreads out, it would be that the Wu brothers caused public anger and were beaten to the house, which had nothing to do with us soldiers.
Seeing that the money was robbed, the housekeeper could not stop him from fainting three times. Finally, he had to hurry to the lobby of the Ministry of Justice to ask his master Wu Yuanqing to sue another lawsuit!
But when he arrived at the lobby of the Ministry of Justice, what did the housekeeper see? On the street outside the gate of the Ministry of Justice, the people on the three floors inside and three floors were watching something. The housekeeper squeezed in and saw that it was his master who was beaten to pieces and his butt was smashed.
Since their birth, the Wu Yuanqing brothers have never suffered such great humiliation. They are not only physically but also spiritually. They have been punished by sixty rods. The two fainted five times and couldn't even speak after waking up.
The two felt that they wanted to accept all the beats they could get in this life after one day. They were beaten three times. I don’t know how many times they fell into a coma, but they were not their own.
After being beaten in public, the two finally woke up. At the same time, they gave Du Shaoqing's family a symbol of being unable to provoke. This family has been devils from big to small, and they will never dare to provoke them again in this life.
Wei Zheng kept supervising the execution until the end. Seeing the two woke up again, he stepped forward and scolded seriously: "You two are heroes, but you don't want to serve the country and be loyal, but you rely on your power to bully the weak. It's really a shame for your ancestors.
This time, on behalf of your Majesty, I will educate you on the late King Xin Ming (the character "官网"). I hope you will remember the lesson and not commit it again, and cultivate yourself and improve your virtues at home!"
"Yes, we will never dare to do it again, we will not dare!" Wu Yuanqing shouted while holding back the severe pain and leaning on the stool.
Li Daozong stood up and said loudly: "In this way, we will withdraw from the execution ground, let's disperse!"
At this time, the housekeeper rushed up and cried, "The head of the family, it's amazing. The prince-in-law Cheng Chumo led his troops to confiscate our family. There was no money left in the treasury, and they moved it away!"
What? Wu Yuanqing spit out a mouthful of old blood, his eyes turned dark, and he fainted again. He couldn't even wake up.
