chapter five hundred and seventy two.

This is the wealth that the capital should have!

A few feet tall red coral trees were piled into a forest here, and bronzes covered with copper-green were thrown in a pile like broken copper and iron. There were even more expensive Song and Yuan blue and white porcelain. The peasant army that was ignorant of goods even threw them on the ground and beat them. If the collectors who were wielding hundreds of billions of crazily scrambling to see it, they would not know how much blood should be in pain.

What Li Zicheng cares most was the silver and grain. The empty treasury is now filled with shiny silver, reaching an astonishing 20 million taels. The grain moved out of the eunuchs and nobles near the capital was also hundreds of thousands of stones. The rats that were about to starve to death in Taicang, the Ministry of Revenue, have transformed this time and become almost dying, and are as fat as a kitten.

However, the Jinyiwei prison was almost filled with them. In addition to those eunuchs, there were hundreds of people in the former Ming Dynasty.

In the entire yamen, the whip was waving and the creaking sound of the splints. The shrill screams of full air were no longer heard. Everyone seemed to be dying under torture.

As Bai Juyi said in "The Song of Everlasting Sorrow", the sky streets are all covered with the bones of the nobles, and there are only half of the nobles and nobles! This is realized here. In the huge Ping'anfang, Jixiangfang and other several nobles and military generals and eunuchs, there are many nobles carrying silver everywhere, and nobles with grass signs, crying and shouting, selling family antiques to the outside world, and even selling children and daughters. The once glorious nobles in the capital have completely declined.

However, Dashun Army was convinced here. As long as they gave out all their wealth, silver and food, they would be released. After a few people who could not withstand the torture and paid the money were released, a group of nobles finally spat in groups of three or three, with scars on their bodies and their eyes were dull.

But there are still a few hard bones, or even more stingy than Grandet!

The most typical of this is Zhou Kui, the former father-in-law,! The son-in-law, Emperor Chongzhen, begged him to get silver to help with his salary, and even his daughter, Empress Zhou, brought out his physical money. He swallowed a small half of it, and only donated only 5,000 taels twice. In front of the trespass, his stinginess was fully utilized. He hung his hands on a wooden stake. The two soldiers of Liu Zongmin were waving a big whip stained with pepper water, sweating profusely. The two strong men began to breathe. With their big leather boots, Liu Zongmin walked to the old man again. When the whip raised his chin, he asked helplessly.

"How about it, the old man still refuses to pay the money? If you are killed, no matter how much money you have, you will not have the life to spend it!"

The robe of Shu brocade with longevity on his body was beaten into beggars' outfits, covered in blood and few pieces of good meat. Fortunately, after shaking Wei Zaode, the Grand Secretary, to death, Liu Zongmin realized that this thing could not be played around with. He grabbed the person to death and had nowhere to find money. He replaced it with some torture and light criminal law. Otherwise, this old sting would have gone to look for his daughter.

The weak were almost breathless, and they leaned against the shackles on their heads with both hands, but their heads were raised too much. Zhou Kui still looked sad and shaking his head sadly.

"Mr.! I... I really have no money..."

"fart!"

A loud slap in the face made the old guy's face aside. Liu Zongmin shouted in anger: "You are Chongzhen's father-in-law, and each person's annual reward of Jinhua Yin is 100,000 taels! It's 1.7 million taels in 17 years! Your village is still the largest near the capital! Can you have those thousands of taels of silver?"

"I really have to sacrifice my life and not give up money! But I'm so cruel and ruthless!"

As a negative example, the corpses of two unlucky ghosts of Wei Zaode and Wang Zhixin were hung directly on the wall of the Jinyiwei prison. The protruding eyeballs were staring at their former colleagues in a frightening manner. The brains of the cracked brains attracted a large group of fly flies and insects. Their appearance was very terrifying. Several young masters were frightened when they saw this scene, and donated all their wealth without even being tortured.

But this thing didn't work in front of Zhou Kui. He was so scared that he stood there. He even felt a sad face. The old guy shouted sadly.

"Mr. Jun! Even if you open your head, I should have no money or no money! I have a lot of people in my village and spend a lot of money. Besides, the imperial court was poor in recent years, and the unfilial daughter was deducted from my New Year's reward! I really have no savings!"

After torturing so many eunuchs and nobles, Liu Zongmin encountered this first time. Even if he killed someone without blinking, General Liu was so angry that his fingers were trembling and full of anger. He threw the whip to the ground.

"You old man, you can do it! You can do it! Someone comes!"

Zhou Kui was so scared that he kept trembling like a shrimp. However, Liu Zongmin's personal soldiers did not put the hell on him, but instead went to the door and brought back a few people a moment later.

"Father!"

Listening to the shrill cry, Zhou Kui's eyes suddenly widened and he also screamed in horror.

"Boss, second, Jiang'er!"

"Hmph, old guy, you know him, just know him!"

He suddenly pulled Zhou Kui's eldest daughter-in-law up. With a grim smile, Liu Zongmin pulled her collar open, and her white skin and red bellyband were immediately exposed. As Da Shunjun's laughter and the woman's fearful cry, Liu Zongmin reached into her bellyband and pointed her hand at her subordinates.

"Old man, Wang Jianren is just asking you to spit out the dirty silver from corruption and donate it to the court. You don't want to kill you, but if you are stubborn, don't let me be cruel. Reward your wife and daughter-in-law to work hard and sell it to the alley, you can get some money!"

"Say, where is the silver hidden!"

"I'm really worthless!"

"Hey, I really don't cry until I see the coffin!"

The hand was torn again, and most of the clothes disappeared. Liu Zongmin waved his hand in anger with a woman who was hiding around like Loach.

"Those three reward you!"

"Mr. Xie!"

It was all the poor and the sound of the thief. Looking at the tender flowing water, Zhou Kui's sons screamed in the green light on his head, Zhou Kui's wife and daughter-in-law were snatched into the middle of a group of military men without even having time to exclaim.

That scene was just a romance film. In an instant, the clothes turned into random flying around. In the whimpering voice, a woman surrounded her soldiers. In front of Zhou Kui, there was an extremely perverted Liu Zongmin, a personal soldier who took off Zhou Kui's wife's shoes and hugged the pair of unemployed and kissed her white feet there, screaming shrillly, and then the former father-in-law's face turned green.

"Father! These are all thieves! We will pay the money and save our lives! We will pay the money, and it's important to save our lives!"

Even Zhou Kui's eldest son couldn't help but roar. If Zhou Kui hadn't planned in advance and buried his wealth in a place they didn't know, the sons would have said it long ago.

But if his son, daughter-in-law and wife screamed, Zhou Guogong shook his head this time.

"No money!"

"not yet!"

He angrily pushed his second daughter-in-law into the crowd of personal soldiers, and reached out to greet him. In the fearful struggle of the eldest son who was shouting, the two of the personal soldiers of the class pressed his shoulders and pressed him to the ground, pulled out the big knife, and Liu Zongmin walked behind him with his arms around.

"Old man, keep wealth for future generations! If you don't know the truth again, I will let you lose your future!"

"Dad, help me!"

Listening to the sound of the big blade shaking on the back of his head, his face turned pale. This week, the eldest son's nose and tears flowed down, dragging his shoulders that were pressed, and hissing and praying with all his might.

"Dad, if you don't pay the bank, your child will die!"

"Shut up, unfilial son! Jun Ye, even if you kill them both, you can't get the money out of the house without money!"

"Is that so? Then I'll give it a try!"

"Dad, don't..."

Click...

Several voices intertwined again. After Liu Zongmin's hideous sword slashed, the young man flew out in a circle, and blood spurted a few meters away. His headless body fell to the ground and twitched violently. Zhou Kui was shocked. After a few seconds, he started to cry.

"Fuhai! My son!"

"Don't be busy crying, this one is still there!"

"father!!!"

Amid Liu Zongmin's grim smile, Zhou Kui's second son was carried over by a little chicken, pressed his shoulder and knelt down on the ground. His elder brother's head was gone, and the second son was even more snot and tears, shouting shrillly.

"Dad! The child doesn't want to die! If I die, our Zhou family will be defeated! Dad! Please hand over the money quickly!"

But when the silver was mentioned, Zhou Kui's anger came out again. He pulled the iron ring hanging on the wooden stake and clattered, and he was jumping on his feet and scolding in anger.

"I said everything, there is no money! How can you, an unfilial son, pay your father?"

"father……"

Click...

Another head flew out, and Zhou Kui cried miserably as if struck by lightning.

"Fugui!!!"

Even Liu Zongmin was tortured and was a little terrified! He waved his hand and asked someone to drag the body down, panting and pointing at the mourning Zhou Kui's nose. He hummed helplessly.

"Old man, you can do it! Come on, and I will continue to mess with you!"

After finishing the shift on Zhou Kui's wife, even the personal soldiers were in high spirits and whipped them high again. In the yard, the screams of the old miser were heard again. With his shirts on, Liu Zongmin hummed out of the Jinyiwei's backyard.

However, something strange happened at the entrance of the yard, and others avoided it. Someone took the initiative to come to the door. The carriage pulled a large box and landed in the front yard. At the shocked Liu Zongmin's personal soldiers, an old man kept bowing and bowing.

"Old Chen Yan, when he learned that His Majesty Dashun was going to donate funds and pay, he took out all his family wealth to support His Majesty. There were a total of 30,000 taels of silver and some cloth and food! Jun Ye, please check it!"

When Chongzhen raised funds, the Grand Secretary of the Song Dynasty took out sixteen taels of silver and shouted that he had sold a few books. Good guy, after the dynasty changed, he gave all his wealth in one breath.

But it would be impossible not to worship. Chen Yan is a smart man. He knew the miserable situation of the Wei Mansion not far away from him. His family was shaved three times. Even his wife and daughter were played by the generals of the Shun Army. He was rewarded with his subordinates as prostitutes. His mind was green when he died. This former Grand Secretary was a little far-sighted and took the initiative to come to the door.

"Chen Yan is right?"

"Yes! Yes! I'm Chen Yan!"

He took out a large booklet, and several shoulder poles fell down and didn't know that Liu Zongmin, the personal soldiers of Liu Zongmin, pulled out a tortured nobleman, and then wrote down Chen Yan's name on the booklet. Seeing several soldiers put away the booklet, Chen Yan, the chief minister who used to call the wind and rain in the Ming Dynasty, nodded and bowed like a primary school student.

"Thank you, the military lords! Thank you, the military lords!"

As he spoke, the hurried horse hoof voice passed by himself, and he turned around suddenly, but then Chen Yan quickly retracted his head.

The plague god Liu Zongmin!

He watched several Shunjun put away the booklets, and Chen Yan quickly applied oil to the soles of his feet and slipped out.

This Liu Zongmin was not looking for him. He encountered unprecedented setbacks at Zhou Kui'er and was full of anger. He rushed straight to the palace again.

Chongzhen was probably suspicious because of his ancestors' personality. Zhu Yuanzhang was also suspicious. He set up the Jinyiwei in order to supervise all officials. In order to prevent civil officials, he had six ministries and nine temples in the outer court. He copied the same functions in the inner court and created the twelve supervisors, four departments and eight bureaus with similar functions, and used eunuchs to restrain foreign ministers.

No wonder there were so many powerful eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty.

Since the fall of the Ming Dynasty, almost all the Twelve Prisons have declined and disappeared, but the military battles under the Twelve Prisons have become particularly prosperous these two days.

The exquisite gold and silver ware, carefully carved by the masters of craftsmen, surpassed the artistic and historical precipitation of metal itself, and the gold and silver ware treasured in the palace and the powerful and nobles mixed with those heavy silver were thrown into the pot without any mercy. Under the roasting of hot coal, they finally turned into black gold and silver bricks.

The dirty silver copied from outside was transported into the palace like flowing water, and then it was cast into large pieces of silver bricks, a total of two hundred kilograms.

In order to discredit Chongzhen, the Qing court later recorded in Qing history that it received more than 20 million taels of silver in Chongzhen's cellar. It is estimated that the prototype was Li Zicheng's large silver bricks.

Looking at the fire, gold and silver utensils, hairpins, hairpins, and hairpins rolled down, and finally turned into white silver. Li Zicheng's one-eyed eyes couldn't help but continue to radiate red flames and turned bloody.

"Brother! Are there any masters of the former Ming Jinyiwei here? Damn, I met an old shit boy!"

He didn't really have any rules. He rode a fast horse, and Liu Zongmin ran in directly, turned over and dismounted, and shouted in panting.

But now, Li Zicheng was obviously not right. For a full minute, he pulled out his eyes from the silver ingots that the eunuch kept melting and casting in Liu Zongmin, and then he slapped him on Liu Zongmin's shoulder in a dull slap.
