52. The monarchs and ministers in the Kunning Palace plan to torture the officials in the Chengtian Mansion


In Kunning Palace, Liu Zongmin knew that what he said was too ugly, which made Li Zicheng unhappy, but he didn't finish what he should have said, and his heart was panicked.He softened his tone and said: "It's difficult for us to be like this, those Ming Dynasty relics still eat and drink spicy food all day long, hugging girls and hugging daughters-in-law, they have money, and some are food."

They donate some to support us, and it can be regarded as treating them leniently to Your Majesty, but why don't they have any idea at all, it's really a bunch of shameless and shameless things for me to see, they should all kill us, they occupied the state and county before, killed corrupt officials, killed landlords, how happy it is, now like this, they are about to suffocate me to death" Li Zicheng's eyes lit up, and he did not answer Liu Zongmin, but moved his gaze to Niu Jinxing, who was sitting on the side.Niu Jinxing hesitated for a moment and said: "The officials of the Jingshi have some reputation, and there are many students who worship under their names.These students are routinely required to make offerings to the master every year, so that these officials have more than tens of thousands of taels of silver in their homes. ”Seeing that Li Zicheng was still looking at him without speaking, he said: "These people are very picky, and Chongzhen is short of money, so they asked them to donate their salaries, but no one responded.The minister thinks that His Majesty can learn from Chongzhen's method.It's just that, like Chongzhen, if you only rely on literature, I'm afraid it won't work. ”Li Zicheng pondered for a while, and said to Liu Zongmin: "Heizi, I'll leave this matter to you."

In the past few days, I have said that I am not in good health and will not go to the court, so you will gather all the old men of the former dynasty to your general's mansion, tell them about our difficulties, and persuade them to contribute some money.What do you think" Liu Zongmin understood what Li Zicheng meant, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, you said it earlier, don't worry, I promise to do this well for you" Niu Jinxing said on the side: "You have to draw up a number in advance, as the minimum donation, of course, the more the merrier." ”Liu Zongmin said: "You are determined by this number, you are knowledgeable."

I'm a big old man, and I don't know anything except that I know how to fight with Your Majesty. ”Li Zicheng made him laugh and said, "I still like Kuroko, you are a rough bastard, and you have a temper" The three of them looked at each other and laughed.On the second day, Li Ziguo did not have an early dynasty.The ministers gathered in the corridor by the Donghua Gate and secretly discussed.Your Majesty probably made Dou Meiyi unable to get out of bed.You think, when the first emperor was in the past, he didn't even look down on a big beauty like Chen Yuanyuan, how could it be her turn Dou Meiyi has survived for so many years, and finally has the opportunity to serve a man, it is not worth a moment of gold, and the night of jubilation is not enough to be addicted, and the pro-army of the brigade broke into the end gate and quickly surrounded the corridor.Liu Zongmin, the commander of the pro-army and the mighty general Liu You, came out of the pro-army and said loudly: "The general of the pro-army and the pro-army of the central authority is ordered, all the officials who call their names, please come with me." ”Then, a flag officer held a roster and read aloud the positions and names of each official.Read one, Liu You will deal with one, and if he didn't come, he immediately sent soldiers to his home to search.The officials looked at each other, shouted their names, but did not dare not stand up, and went to the pro-army to stand up.Who is Liu Zongmin, that is the living king of Hades, except for Li Zicheng, who would dare to offend him and kill people is like crushing ants to death, so he doesn't care if you are an official of the imperial court The officials were gathered together, and they were not taken to the General Quan Mansion, but directly to the courtyard of the Chengtian Mansion prison.In the morning, thousands of officials were concentrated in the prison.The original prisoners in the prison were all released by Liu Zongmin.Wei Zaode, Fang Yuegong, Qiu Yu, Chen Yan, and Li Yuzhi, the so-called famous ministers at that time, were all brought.Zhou Kui, Ran Xingrang, Zhang Guoji, Xu Yunzhen, Zhang Shize, these former imperial relatives did not pull any of them.Seeing that everything was ready, Liu Zongmin came out of the back hall, stood on the steps under the corridor, looked at this group of so-called ministers, laughed a few times, and said: "Oh, it's all good, look at it, all of them have fine skin and tender meat, fat and fat, and it makes people greedy when they look at it." ”Everyone said in their hearts, what is this called, we are not beasts, fattened and eat meat, what do you think about it wrong, I heard that this guy has eaten people in the past.Could it be that he wanted to eat everyone at this time, so he heard Liu Zongmin say sharply: "You fucking eat one by one, but your brains are full of fat, Lao Tzu's army has no food to eat, Lao Tzu is desperate, blood stains the battlefield, is it easy to lay down this country, but in the end, you are blessed to eat meat and play with women, Lao Tzu still has to gnaw on vegetables, is it unfair Today, Lao Tzu wants to borrow some silver money from you to spend money, so that Lao Tzu's brothers can also live a life that people deserve."

You say, 'Should I borrow this money?'

no one answered him.He sneered and said: "You have to borrow it, you have to borrow it, you have to borrow it, don't fool Lao Tzu like fooling Chongzhen, Lao Tzu is not Chongzhen, if you are impatient to fool Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will let him taste the torture tools in the hall of Chengtianfu, don't you use these torture tools to deal with the poor on weekdays, hehe, today Lao Tzu will let you also try the taste of these things, to see if you are hard bones, or Lao Tzu's temper is hard" Someone finally spoke at the bottom of the steps: "General Liu doesn't have to be angry, you say how much you borrow, We'll pool the money for you.It's just that we also rely on our money to eat, and we don't have more. ”Liu Zongmin smiled and said, "Well, I finally have acquaintances."

Don't worry, I won't borrow much, and I promise you can afford it.If you are still rich and want to lend me more, then Lao Liu thanked me here" The officials thought to themselves, you think of the beauty, and wealth, lend you more.If you borrow it, you can still repay the interest and kill us, we don't believe it, if you are rich, you dare to let you know that you don't think about us every day, we are good out of thin air, you are such a ghostly debt collector, you can still live in the future, I just heard Liu Zongmin say again: "Don't worry, everyone, I don't borrow much."

I set a base, you let the family hand it over, let's pay the money with one hand, release the person with the other, and everyone can go home in a while. ”Definitely, this is the general of the Dashun Dynasty to borrow money, it is clearly the set of bandit kidnapping tickets, and then, the flag officer stood under the corridor and sang loudly: "High-ranking officials above the middle hall, 100,000 taels of silver."

Ministry of Jingtang brocade clothes, 50,000 taels.The officials of the Ministry of Daoke and the Lang Officials paid 30,000 taels.Hanlin 10,000 taels.Han Lin took out a thousand taels of silver and immediately released him and went home. ”After the official report of the flag was completed, Liu Zongmin asked everyone with a smile: "How is it, it's not much, my old Liu is still more considerate of you." ”As soon as you hear it, my mother-in-law, you are not too much, you are going to demolish our house, and you want our lives Most of the officials are like ashes, and some openly shouted: "Where are you borrowing money, you are asking for our lives" Liu Zongmin nodded and said: "I don't want your lives."

Jingshi is not allowed to sell human flesh, and besides, you can't sell this bit of meat for a few dollars.Who doesn't want to borrow, let's say, you go into the prison from here, we have figured it out, you are willing to pay, and you come out again. ”:
