Chapter 130 Purging the Warlords 1

"Let her go!"

Zhu Houzhao's words shocked everyone in the old Zhu family. They did not expect that Zhu Houzhao would let Liu Rushi go because of his ruthlessness.

Immediately, their eyes became strange. This Liu Rushi was quite beautiful. Could it be that Zhu Houzhao had Cao Mengde's hobby?

In an instant, everyone's interest in gossiping greatly expanded.

Everyone in Lao Zhu's family has their own preferences. Lao Zhu is bloodthirsty, Zhu Di loves war, Zhu Zhanji loves fighting crickets, Zhu Jianshen only loves his wet nurse, Zhu Houcong is an expert in cultivating immortals, Zhu Changluo is the king in bed, Zhu Youxiao loves carpentry, and Zhu Houzhao has everything.

It seems that it is not too unusual for Cao Mengde to be so good.

"For the sake of Mr. Zhu Shou, I will spare your life and go back!"

Zhu Youjian betrayed Zhu Houzhao to save face and decided not to kill Liu Rushi.

Regardless of whether Zhu Houzhao fell in love with Liu Rushi or had other motives, he had to give him this face.

"A common woman thanks Your Majesty for not killing her."

Under the leadership of Wang Chengen, Liu Rushi left the palace. She complained that she was wronged, but she completely recognized Qian Qianyi's true face. She had no shame in continuing to pester him.

Others are also very interested.

"Like a shadow following someone's body, like a maggot attached to a bone, like a ghost in appearance, killing someone like someone picking something out of a bag, it's really powerful."

The situation was becoming more and more unfavorable for him, but he had no choice but to do anything. He, the famous Governor Yuan, relied on the warlords in Ningyuan to rise to power. If he fell out with the warlords, he would probably die a miserable death.

"Superintendent, how about we keep doing this and give them all away?"

Lao Zhu teased meaningfully, with an expression as if you should continue to pretend.

Rubbing his brows tiredly, Yuan Chonghuan's eyes flashed with a trace of ruthlessness. He had been deeply involved with Wei Zhongxian and the Donglin Party successively. He could still get bigger and bigger as an official, but he was not as simple as he appeared.

The tea that Zhu Houzhao just took into his mouth spurted out immediately. Looking at Lao Zhu and others, he was speechless and said angrily: "I am not Cao Cao, and I am not interested in other people's wives."

But Yuan Chonghuan directly rejected it: "This is absolutely impossible."

Especially among the dead was the extremely powerful Zu Dashou, which was a big deal. Zu Dashou was nominally under his command, but in fact Zu Dashou, including the generals under Zu Dashou, did not take him at all.

Governor Yuan took it seriously.

Some people even targeted him because he was the most suspected of killing Zu Dashou. If he killed Zu Dashou, Ning Yuan would be the one who really had the final say. Man Gui, Zhao Lejiao, He Kegang and others would no longer have the final say.

pose a threat to him.

"Zu Dashou, Xia Guoxian, Li Benzhen, Wang Pingfan, Ma Bao, Gao Dejie, Guo Zhuangtu. There are so many warlords in Ningyuan, big and small, and there are also Zuo Liangyu, Liu Zeqing and others who are not in Ningyuan, huh."

"puff"

Ningyuan, Yuan Chonghuan was overjoyed when he learned that the imperial court had sent people to escort the military pay. As long as he had money, he could stabilize the power of the major warlords and consolidate his position in Ningyuan.

To be able to gain a foothold in Ningyuan, where there are many warlords, and to become the spokesperson of many warlords, Yuan Chonghuan also has some wealth. The combat effectiveness of the Guan Ning cavalry he formed is extremely good, and it can go head-to-head with the Jiannu cavalry to destroy Zu Dashou's men.

It's not that difficult.

"Let's wait and see. When the money from the court arrives, if they still can't be appeased, then you can't blame me for being ruthless!"

Let the Sunflower Sword Guard sneak into Ningyuan and look for opportunities to assassinate the warlord leaders, causing internal chaos in Ningyuan and causing Yuan Chonghuan to be in chaos. It will be much easier for their grandfather and grandson to clean up the mess!

He explained to Zu Dashou's subordinates that he had never attacked Zu Dashou at all, but they did not believe him at all, and instead became more and more suspicious of him.

The ability shown by the Sunflower Sword Guard made him very excited. He was able to assassinate enemies and spy on intelligence. His power was even higher than that of the Jinyi Guard.

"Oh not interested"

In fact, he also knew that Zhu Houzhao could not fall in love with Liu Rushi, but this did not prevent him from wanting to tease Zhu Houzhao.

After passing the news from the Sunflower Sword Guard who had sneaked into Ningyuan City to commit murders to Zhu Zhanji, Zhu Di said with envy.

Zhu Di's face was cold and murderous.

On the official road to Ningyuan, Zhu Di was dressed in a mighty uniform, riding a war horse, with a long sword hanging from his waist. He looked majestic and majestic, like a mighty general.

It is easy to kill Zu Dashou's subordinates, but how to face other warlords next will become a bigger problem. If things get serious, he is likely to be attacked by a group.

Yuan Chonghuan's lieutenant, Wang Chengyin, a notorious runaway general, gave him a bad idea. He wiped his neck to remind Yuan Chonghuan that he might as well do it to all of Zu Dashou's subordinates!

Besides, if he wanted to find a woman, he wouldn't look for a married woman like Liu Rushi.

In his current situation, he doesn't have time to play games with women, so his career comes first. Making his Ming Dynasty strong first is his biggest goal.

Zhu Zhanji couldn't help but admired.

Lao Zhu asked with a gossipy look.

"To support your troops and respect yourself, you must have your life. If you lose your life, how much trouble can you make?"

Anyway, Zu Dashou is dead, and Zu Dashou's men cannot defeat Yuan Chonghuan.

"Zhu Houzhao's sword guard is really useful. He made that Zu Dashou so quickly."

"Zhu Houzhao, have you fallen in love with the prisoner's wife?"

But soon, he couldn't be happy anymore. I don't know since when, people kept dying in Ningyuan City, and those who died were all the leading figures of the major warlords.

"Let you think what you think!"

Zhu Houzhao didn't bother to explain too much. He just admired Liu Rushi's integrity and had no intention of it.

Zhu Zhanji didn't look good either. As long as he was an emperor, he would not like those warlords from Ningyuan.

However, in fact, Yuan Chonghuan did not have the courage to attack Zu Dashou and killed him. If Ning Yuan was in chaos, he would be dead!

"Who killed Zu Dashou?"

As soon as Zu Dashou died, his men would naturally not pretend that nothing had happened, and searched for Zu Dashou's murderer everywhere in Ningyuan City.

Faced with the increasingly heated rumors outside, Yuan Chonghuan was in trouble and could not speak out.

"According to the information provided by Jin Yiwei, in the entire Ningyuan, only a few people such as Man Gui, Zhao Lijiao, and He Kegang are still loyal to the Ming Dynasty. The rest are all out-and-out warlords who support their own troops and use their troops to invade.

I didn’t take the imperial court seriously at all.”

Zhu Di smiled solemnly: "Let the Sunflower Sword Guards continue to cause trouble. Let's go over slowly. I want to see how Yuan Chonghuan will calm down the chaos within Ningyuan."

"Ask Jian Wu to contact Jian Yi, Jian Er and Jian San in Ningyuan City and tell them that not only will the leaders of those warlords be killed, but their relatives will also be wiped out. Ningyuan City will become more chaotic and will incorporate us.

Ningyuan is more advantageous."

"I see!"

Zhu Zhanji nodded slightly, indicating that he knew what to do.
