Chapter 423

Gu Junli has really done too much during this period. The ordinary ministers are trembling with fear, and the big family is cautious, but they feel very unconvinced.

The late emperor did not dare to do this to them back then. The family was the foundation of this court. How dare he do this? He actually wanted to uproot them!

This is too much! They are a big family after all. Not to mention their strength in Kyoto, their real hegemony is in the local area.

The sky is high and the emperor is far away. This is not a joke. It is indeed the case in some places. The status of the emperor is not as good as that of the elders of these families.

In many places before, they only knew the family but not the emperor. Now they were suddenly slapped in the face. How did they feel?

Those who come to be officials are indeed the heads of the family and the most outstanding ones, but there are still many elders in their hometown, and they have received letters from the elders of the family.

Some of these old people are threatening, and some are pretending to be pitiful. All in all, they are begging for their children to be rescued.

Those who pamper their children are becoming more and more arrogant each one!

What did they do? Anyway, after they were arrested, the local people rejoiced and celebrated with drums and gongs.

The people who watched in the capital in the past did not know these things. They really thought that the family tree had deep roots and was well supported in the local area.

But the emperor slapped them awake, not only because the local people did not support them, but also supported the officials who went to investigate, which is enough to prove the will of the people.

On the other hand, the emperor was also very smart. He turned the evidence he found during this period into a story, and then told the ministers one by one, and finally told it for half a month.

I have done nothing in the past half month except telling 15 stories, and these 15 stories can be said to be shocking.

Who would have thought? What do some people want to do by making weapons privately, mining ores, and raising thousands of servants? Isn't this a rebellion?

Of course, rebellion is an imposed crime. In fact, the only thing people do is to be domineering.

Land is absolutely not allowed to be in the hands of others.

They snatched all the people's land and gave you a mouthful of food. They didn't have any other conditions. If you don't want to, just get out.

If you stay here, you can still live, but if you drag your family away, you are simply asking for death.

The local people felt miserable, but they had no choice but to endure it, living a very miserable and miserable life.

And this kind of thing doesn't just happen in one family, the only difference is how much they went too far.

Of course these are all big mistakes, and there are countless other anecdotes.

"Today we are going to talk about how many women a family can marry?"

When they heard this, the officials of several big families turned green.

During this period, they were on tenterhooks every day and were laughed at every day.

The only difference is, will you be ridiculed today or tomorrow? Sooner or later, you will not be able to escape.

But some people are more ambitious, and they can still be ridiculed continuously! Because for two or three days in a row, it was all a family matter, and the emperor seemed to do it on purpose and did not give any chance to relax.

Everyone was excited, and the censors were also energetic, because after reading the story, it was time for them to show their strength.

I didn't know these things existed before, but now I know them. If I don't tell them all the words they know, I'd be sorry for the emperor's painstaking efforts.

"It's amazing to say that today, there are only 20 men in a family. But, the wife and concubines combined, there are more than 200 people.

Of course, they do not each have ten concubines, but there is an elder who is over forty years old this year. He alone has thirty concubines.

I'm really curious, I am an emperor who doesn't have this ability or status, is he more valuable than the royal family?"

After hearing this, I knelt on the ground and felt very depressed.

Whose business is this? Who is so careless?

They haven't been back for so many years, and they don't know if it was done by their own family members. Anyway, it must be right to kneel down.

So one or two, they knelt down first and waited for the roll call to be called, and then stood up again as long as they were not from their own family.

"Mr. Liu, this is your family's business, do you know?"

When they heard this, everyone else breathed a sigh of relief. Oh, that's great. It's not their family's business anyway.

At this moment, they felt that they had escaped a disaster, and then they looked at Mr. Liu with a mentality of watching the excitement.

Oops, your brother can do it. He is so old and has so many concubines. He is really awesome.

"Your Majesty, Wei Chen really doesn't know. Wei Chen hasn't been back for many years, and he doesn't know that such a thing happened at home.

Wei Chen is guilty. He failed to manage his family well and he has also brought shame on himself. Today I will send a letter back to ask the family to kick this bastard out!"

When the emperor heard this, he nodded and said: "This is really not someone else. I read the brochure and he is your biological brother. Having said that, he is quite generous and treats every concubine very well. It is said that a person

I can spend ten thousand taels of silver a year.

I'm really curious, where did all this money come from? Is your family so rich? So many women finally wanted to be your brother's concubines."

Everyone was frightened. It turned out that the so-called concubine was just a pretext. The real problem was money. Where did they get the confidence to have so much money? This is absolutely impossible.

Anyway, they dare not say that their families have so much money. It would be good to have more than a hundred thousand taels.

But having said that, they are a big family with a lot of family background. If there is still a lot of land, then the merchants will definitely not let it go. If you think about it, getting rich means taking money from other people's pockets.

Mr. Liu kowtowed directly and said loudly: "Wei Chen really doesn't know. Wei Chen will go back now and make sure to find out about this matter!"

"You don't need to go back. Someone has already checked this matter out for you."

When the emperor said this, there was a smile on his lips, and then he asked the chief eunuch to read it quickly.

When everyone heard the ensuing investigation, they couldn't believe it, thinking that the Liu family had gone too far.

They didn't look at the land in order to make money, but they directly bought and sold other people's shops for money. Now half of the city's business is owned by their family, so no wonder they are so rich.

Moreover, because the local officials were members of the Liu family, they would not care at all. The people had no way to redress their grievances and could only endure it.

Therefore, in recent years, local people have not engaged in business at all. The only reason is that even if the business is big and well done, as long as it is an ordinary person with no background, it is finished.

Once the Liu family sets their sights on you, they won't be able to run away. In this case, let alone money, they may not be able to keep you alive.
