Zhu Youxiao’s meaning is very obvious, and he cannot forgive Dong Qichang.

Not to mention that Dong Qichang was originally a bad gentry in history who was kind to others but was a clever snatching the common people. Just the latest evidence obtained by the Dongchang and the news that Zhu Youxiao had just heard, the initiator of the plot to ban the Royal Weaver Bureau was this retired senior official who seemed gentle, respectful, frugal.

Zhu Youxiao must get rid of him!

This person is no better than Zhang Pu. Zhang Pu is considered a radical intellectual at most. He took it for granted that the difficulty of people's livelihood in Jiangnan was caused by the royal entrusted business, and he had no scheming. However, Dong Qichang was selfish, thinking about using this to soar and to restore the market share of his Dong family to the past.

Therefore, Zhu Youxiao decided to get rid of Dong Qichang and kill him in the name of Li Mingrui. This would not affect his authority as an emperor in the literati's sons, but also divide the civil servant group and divert the hatred targets of the literati's sons.

Moreover, as a civil servant, if you want to become a close minister that the emperor Zhu Youxiao, you must do a few things that make the literati disgrace.

Li Mingrui is different from Qian Qianyi. Qian Qianyi is shameless and has no limit on his personality. He can do anything to his former friends and disciples.

Li Mingrui, who was a little concerned about feathers, had to rely on Zhu Youxiao, the emperor, to take the initiative to help him with the hatred among the scholars.

How to shock the Jiangnan literary world while also let Li Mingrui offend the literati in the world? The best way is to kill Dong Qichang!

Dong Qichang himself is inappropriate and has many handles. As a tycoon in the court, Li Mingrui has every reason to kill him!

"Wu Dawei, Your Majesty has an order to let you and me take action first and then report, right?" Zhu Youxiao asked Wu Jin with a smile at this time.

Wu Jin hurriedly replied: "That's right, Your Majesty heard that you are in trouble, so he ordered the officials and others to come to rescue him. He also allowed him to take action first and then report. From the princes and subjects to the subjects, you can kill him as long as you are in this Lishui Pavilion!"

When Wu Jin said this, Zhu Youxiao looked at Dong Qichang. Seeing that he was already pale and trembling, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Dong Qichang, how do you want to die?"

Thousands of troops were surrounded outside, and hundreds of imperial guards were aiming at them with guns and ammunition inside, and the Dongchang man stared at him with murderous intent.

Therefore, Dong Qichang didn't think about why Li Mingrui was so favored by His Majesty. He actually made a big boss in the East Factory obey his words. Even the current emperor dispatched the Imperial Guards to vent his anger and allowed him to take action first and then report, including the princes and nobles. The implication was that he, the Minister of Rites of the previous dynasty, could also be killed by Li Mingrui.

Dong Qichang couldn't help but tremble, but he couldn't speak for a while. He didn't know whether to beg for mercy or scold Li Mingrui in a righteous manner and torture the court and kill loyal and kind-hearted!

However, when Zhang Pu saw that Li Mingrui was about to kill Dong Qichang, he shouted loudly at Zhu Youxiao: "Li Mingrui, you cannot be arrogant because of your favor and kill my loyal and good minister of the Ming Dynasty. Dong Gong is the teacher of the late emperor and a generation of literary masters. You have only relied on being a charming emperor to gain trust from Your Majesty, so you can only be the master of this cabinet. If you dare to touch Dong Gong, the scholars of the world will be more scolded than to curse you forever!"

"So what's the matter with eternity? It's not your turn to Zhang Pu." Zhu Youxiao said that, then snatched the Xiuchun sword from Wu Jin, patted Dong Qichang's face with the back of the knife, and continued to ask Dong Qichang: "Dong Qichang, how do you want to die."

The cold and stern knife made Dong Qichang lose the confidence of a scholar in the end. His tone was as weak as a person with a serious illness and said in a weak and weak way: "Li... Li Ge Lao, yes, there is something to say, old, um, no, a small life is not worthy of your grudge. I also asked you to have a lot of it, and spare the small life."

As he said that, Dong Qichang knelt directly in front of Zhu Youxiao and consciously kowtowed his head on the floor.

"Dong Gong!"

Zhang Pu didn't expect Dong Qichang to kneel down suddenly. The feeling was even worse than the sky collapsed. His mood was really like a thousand arrows piercing his heart.

Mr. Dong, who once said boldly to fight against evil in the court and spared no effort to live, Mr. Dong, who was loved by literati in Jiangnan, actually knelt in front of Li Mingrui, who claimed to be Mr. Li!

It was not just Zhang Pu who beat his chest and stamped his feet, his face full of shock.

Even outside the hall, Zhu Youjian fell below his opinion of the literati again. He had heard Dong Qichang's lectures in the capital, and he thought that Dong Qichang was also the best-school person in the world, with a good character and no one was above his.

Other scholars also shed tears silently. Dong Qichang's kneeling undoubtedly collapsed their beliefs!

But Dong Qichang no longer has the heart to pay attention to what these people think of him. He just wants to save his life now. He is afraid that the old Master Li in front of him will really kill him.

"Tell me, how do you want to die?"

Zhu Youxiao did not mean to forgive Dong Qichang. Whether it was economic interests or the interests of emperors' rule, Dong Qichang must die!

"ah!"

But Dong Qichang was very confused. He felt that he had kowtowed, and had given up the face and integrity of a literary doctor. There was no need for Li Mingrui to hate himself to this point.

"Forget it, look at your silly and sweet ignorant look, I probably don't know how to choose. Wu Datou, give him the whole body." After Zhu Youxiao said this, Wu Jin pulled down a curtain and walked towards Dong Qichang.

Now, Zhang Pu did not argue for him, and other scholars could only shed tears, and Wei Min'er also turned her face away, her eyes roaring.

Dong Qichang had no choice but to cry and complain: "No, you can't kill me, you can't kill me, Master Ge, I beg you, don't kill me!"

Before Dong Qichang could finish speaking, Wu Jin wrapped the curtain around his neck. The two Dongchang men began to pull the two ends. As they pulled tighter, Dong Qichang spoke slowly.

In the end, Dong Qichang fell to Lishui Pavilion.

No one would have thought that Dong Qichang, the one who lost his life in Lishui Pavilion, was a senior official who had been the Minister of the Six Ministers.

Maybe Dong Qichang himself didn't expect it.

"Old Ge, if blood can calm your anger, then you will give it a knife. As long as you can spare these scholars, they are still young, and you don't want to bother you on purpose."

Zhang Pu said something at this time, and after that, he looked up at the ceiling, retracting his tears back into his eyes. He had no confidence to continue speaking.

"Teacher", several of his students shouted and all lowered their heads silently. Dong Qichang's backboneless performance has made them lose the confidence that we were not a woman in the past.

"Zhang Xiaolian, don't be anxious to die. You are different from Dong Qichang. Dong Qichang is hypocritical and cunning. Keeping this person for one day will harm the world for a day. Although you are also very good at causing trouble, you can deal with it better and use it better. So it's a pity to kill you directly. You must convince you."

Zhu Youxiao said with a smile and ordered: "Wu Datou, take Zhang Pu and the scholars present back to the prison for future interrogation."
