The development behind is step-by-step, and everything runs according to the conventions of Ming officialdom. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Feng Shui takes turns, and the glorious Hongtu Qianzhuang has been seized by the governor's yamen from the general number to the semicolon, which is exactly the same as when Gao Hongtu told the whistleblower and the governor ordered the seizure of the cloth shop and winery; Gao Shunqin was dismissed from his position as imperial historian and sent to the capital for trial together with his "minion" Gao Hongtu; Zhou Guoxin got his wish, thoroughly searched Gao Shunqin's private house in the name of investigating the case, and took away a number of "criminal evidence" -- most of which were gold, silver and jade, antiques from the previous dynasty, and famous calligraphy and paintings -- not to raid the house, but to rob the house.

As for the disposition of the Gao family's dependents, it was carried out by the governor Yamen, and the leader was naturally Xia Nan, the initiator of the whole thing. Of course, he came forward as the Governor Battalion, and the soldiers of the Guard also changed into the armor of the Guardian.

In the summer, Nan arrived at Gaofu on the second day of Gao Hongtu's escort to the capital. At the gate of Gaofu, the two stone lions are still towering, as if telling the glory of the master, but there is no former liveliness - in the past, the semicolon shopkeeper who came in and out, and the peers who came to visit were endless.

After entering the gate, the housekeeper of the Gao Mansion was standing on the side and respectfully waiting for Xia Nan's arrival - this was not because he was highly conscious, at the same time that Gao Hongtu was captured by the Jinyi Guard, Xia Nan sent people to guard the Gao Mansion in the name of the governor's yamen, neither allowed to enter nor leave, and everyone stayed in the mansion and waited for the arrival.

When he saw Xia Nan, the housekeeper vaguely remembered that it was he who was ordered by the lord to threaten the person in front of him for the cotton cloth business, and later the lord also told the governor Yamen to seal up the store, and now the revenge of the people came: the money village was sealed, the lord was sent to the capital to be killed, and the lives of the people in the mansion were worried...... This is the rhythm that will kill the Gao family! If you knew today, why bother in the first place?

When the housekeeper was sighing, Xia Nan's voice came into his ears: "If I'm not mistaken, you are Gao Hongtu's housekeeper, right?" ”

The housekeeper hurriedly cleaned up his mood, cheered up, and replied respectfully: "If you go back to the adult, the little one is the housekeeper here, what do you command?" ”

Xia Nan recognized him, but he didn't bother to deal with such a small person about past grievances, and besides, he was just an errand runner.

"How many men, women and children are there in the Gao family? What is the situation in Fuchu? ”

"Lord Hui, there are a total of thirteen people in the Gao family's main room, the lady in the side room, and the young master, and a total of forty-seven maids, old mothers, and miscellaneous servants in the house, all of whom are in the mansion, waiting for the official mansion to fall."

Xia Nan nodded and said, "Lead the way ahead." ”

Under the leadership of the housekeeper, Xia Nan and the others walked through the front yard and came to the flower hall. Behind the flower hall, is the daily living place of the Gao family, which is no different from the average large family, and there is also a garden in the backyard, but it is much more spacious than the garden in the backyard of the governor's yamen, and the surrounding corridors are decorated with golden brilliance.

In the summer, the furniture in the hall was messy, and all kinds of clothes were scattered all over the floor. The rosewood tea tray fell to the ground, and several shattered cups ...... One can imagine the horror, chaos and despair that the family experienced when Gao Hongtu was arrested.

The housekeeper cautiously accompanied Xia Nan to check, and saw that the accompanying "Fubiao" soldiers followed behind Xia Nan, standing straight without squinting, even if the ground in front of him was thrown with all kinds of soft property, he was unmoved, and secretly wondered in his heart: If it was someone else, after entering the Gao Mansion, they would have fought with each other for the robbery of property, and the property was probably robbed so that there was not even a tea cup left, and these soldiers actually looked at it as if they were nothing!

Entering the backyard, Xia Nan looked around at the wings and found that there were eyes peeping at him in the cracks and windows of the doors, and he instructed the housekeeper: "Tell them not to hide, they all come out and wait for the fate!" ”

After a while, the doors of each room opened, and a well-dressed woman came out of the room tremblingly, many of them holding children with snot on their noses, and behind them were women who looked like maids. Some old mothers and handymen also came out of the kitchen and side rooms and walked at the back. After all of them stood in the center of the backyard, they counted roughly about fifty or sixty people, which was consistent with what the housekeeper said.

Xia Nan glanced at these people coldly, and everyone avoided his gaze in fear, looking down at the ground. The family members and subordinates of the Gao Mansion knew that this adult who came with a wolf-like soldier was the one who announced his fate.

After successfully labeling Gao Shunqin and Gao Hongtu as "rebellion", Xia Nan began to think about how to deal with the aftermath. He doesn't care about the life or death of Gao Shunqin and his family, he only cares about Qianzhuang. Now that the money bank has been sealed, the shopkeeper and his men have also been ordered by the government not to leave without authorization, and the assets and manpower of the entire money bank have been temporarily frozen, and the next thing is how to take over. To take over Qianzhuang smoothly, cleaning the Gao Mansion and cutting off all ties between the Gao family and Qianzhuang is the first step.

Theoretically speaking, Gao Hongtu's wife and children are all evaporated in the world is the best choice, because the shops in the feudal society are very dependent, and it is always a trouble to keep the descendants of the Gao family.

However, Gao Hongtu is still on the way to the capital at the moment, even if he is sentenced to a full house, it will take a long time, if in order to take over Qianzhuang as soon as possible, it seems that there is no need to personally concoct a tragedy. First, the Qiongzhou battalion had passed the initial stage of bloody primitive accumulation; Second, Guangzhou is not as good as Qiongzhou, and you can't hide it from everyone when you do these things, and it's not a good thing to have a reputation as a butcher. Therefore, Xia Nan decided to dispose of the Gao family's family in a relatively gentle way.

He said loudly: "I believe you all know what your master has done. After the trial of the Beijing Division, you will not be able to escape from the verdict, and you will not be able to escape death even if you are afraid! ”

Although they were a little prepared, everyone panicked when they heard their own tragic fate in the future. A middle-aged woman dressed in jewels "plopped" and knelt on the ground, wailing: "Please let us live!" We don't know what that guy did! ”

The rest of the people knelt on the ground with Qi Shushu, and the voices of pleading came and went.

"Please let us go!"

"We orphans and widows, adults do well......"

"Adults, the little ones are just miscellaneous people, and they don't know anything!"
