Chapter 369: It’s fun to confiscate your home
The Luo family is one of the powerful people in the capital. They have thousands of hectares of fertile land, five to six thousand villagers, more than a dozen mansions, and more than a dozen shops. They are indeed rich.
Zhu Youjian had a soft spot for confiscating homes, and the Luo family who secretly carried out small tricks was doomed to suffer terrible misfortune.
In the military camp of the 3rd Royal Division, an officer wearing a wolf head double sword armband with a serious expression and cold and intimidating eyes was taking roll call.
"Wei Guoyong."
"Arrived." Platoon leader Wei Guoyong responded and came out.
"Zheng Hao."
"arrive."
"Luo Youbang."
"..."
More than a dozen officers and soldiers who performed well in training were selected. Under the envious eyes of all the soldiers, they followed several officers wearing wolf-head swords and left.
The two wolf-headed swords were the symbol of the Blood Wolves, the first special force established and trained by Emperor Zhu Youjian of the Ming Dynasty. The treatment was so good that it made people envious and envious, but the hell-like intensive special training made countless soldiers tremble with fear.
Wei Guoyong and others were arrested as soon as they entered the training base of the Blood Wolf Special Forces.
When Wei Guoyong and others were still confused, they saw the division commander Gao Jie, whose face was as black as the bottom of a pot, standing next to Eunuch Rong Mo, who had a smile as bright as a chrysanthemum. They were about to shout that they were wronged, but the two second lieutenants who came in immediately stopped them. His face was ashen.
Knowing that many junior officers under his command had been bribed and betrayed, Gao Jie, as a division commander, was ashamed to death. He felt that he had failed the emperor's high hopes. He was filled with overwhelming anger and wanted to kill these traitors with his own hands.
The two second lieutenants following him were both bribed by Wei Guoyong, but one of them had another identity as a spy of the Jin Yiwei. The other had the courage to surrender after repeated weighings and became the most important witness.
Seeing the two of them, Wei Guoyong and others knew that the matter was exposed, and before Rong Mo was punished, they all confessed with tears in their eyes.
After Gao Jie obtained the evidence, he personally led a security company and a battalion of soldiers to surround Luojiazhuang. However, something unexpected happened during the arrest operation.
The head of the Luo family, Luo Renjie, had his throat sealed with a sword by a personal guard. He could not die anymore. The guard committed suicide by taking poison. The clue was interrupted. Gao Jie was so angry that he jumped on his feet. Several people who dared to resist were wounded by the soldiers on the spot. The captured Luo family guard was shot dead on the spot.
The soldiers found enough weapons and equipment such as swords, bows and arrows to equip three thousand private soldiers from the village, and even more than a hundred old-fashioned muskets.
In fact, these swords, bows and arrows and other weapons are available to all the powerful men in the world. In wartime, they equip the farmers in the village and they become private soldiers. The difference is only in the number.
However, the Luo family was still charged with concealing weapons and intending to commit rebellion. The family was confiscated and all family property was confiscated and put into treasury, awaiting execution after a public trial.
Except for the deacons in charge, all the villagers were innocent. They received the emperor's amnesty, re-registered their households, distributed their fields, and became free civilians.
All the villagers who regained their freedom were so moved that they knelt down to express their gratitude, shouting loudly that the emperor was wise and graceful, and every family set up longevity tablets to worship Emperor Chongzhen, wishing him a long life and a life as long as the sky.
Seeing the big boxes filled with gold, silver, jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings being delivered to the palace, Zhu Youjian smiled so hard that he couldn't close his mouth. It's good to confiscate the house, and the money comes quickly, hehe.
With a wave of his pen, he shot them all.
Not long after the last public trial ended, a new public trial was held again, and people from all over the city came to watch.
This time, the public trial was personally presided over by Gao Jie, the commander of the Royal Third Division. After pronouncing the crimes of Wei Guoyong and other traitors in the army and Luo's powerful men, they were executed on the spot.
The recruits of the Third Royal Division were in charge of the execution. Teams of soldiers took turns to go on stage for execution. For a moment, the sound of gunshots rang out, and corpses fell into a pool of blood.
The people not only had no sympathy for the fate of the Luo family, Wei Guoyong and others, but instead clapped their hands and cheered, shouting that they were killed well. The Luo family not only oppressed the people, but also wanted to rebel, so they deserved to be killed.
All the men of the Luo family, and even the direct female family members, were executed, but those singers, concubines, and maids were innocent. According to the old rules, the beautiful ones were sold, and the ugly ones were sold into the priest's house as official prostitutes.
Now that the Jiaoshifang has been cancelled, people can't be sold for much money, and most of the women who are sold have a tragic fate. Zhu Youjian has other plans.
