"Supervisor, I will never forget your kindness.”
Zhu Yi was very touched and bowed to Wei Zhongxian.
He was too young, and was easily fooled by Wei Zhongxian. However, this was not a bad thing for Zhu Yi.
"Little Marquis is too infuriating. This is what I should do.”
Wei Zhongxian helped Zhu Yi up and waved his hand.
Looking at Zhu Yi, who had already been fooled, he thought to himself that the Duke of Cheng's Public House could be roped in.
...
A moment later!
Wei Zhongxian's subordinate, who had been sent to ask Zhu Qiyu for instructions, returned with Zhu Qiyu's reply."Duke of Cheng Zhu Yong and Great Ming have made contributions, so Zhu Yi can inherit the position of Duke.”
"Congratulations, Little Marquis!"
Wei Zhongxian smiled and congratulated Zhu Yi.
He was not surprised by this result.
"Wuwuwu…"
After Zhu Yi heard that he could inherit the position of Duke, he was too excited and immediately burst into tears.
No one knew what he had experienced during this period of time. Now, he had finally walked out.
Wei Zhongxian looked at Zhu Yi and did not say anything. He stood quietly at the side. He understood Zhu Yi's current feelings. After the pressure of many days had dissipated, it was normal for him to lose his composure.
"Hu…"
After crying bitterly for a while, Zhu Yi finally reacted. He took a deep breath and said somewhat embarrassedly,"I've embarrassed myself in front of the superintendent!"
Wei Zhongxian shook his head, bowed his head, and cupped his hands."Little Marquis has been wronged. This one apologizes to Little Marquis on behalf of Wangye and Da Ming.”
If he could successfully rope Zhu Yi in, it would definitely be an outcome that Zhu Qiyu was very happy to see. Therefore, Wei Zhongxian did it without hesitation.
Zhu Yi was silent for a while before he said to the servant beside him,""Go, bring seventy thousand taels of gold over. The Great Ming is in trouble, and the Duke of Cheng Residence has been indebted to the Emperor for generations.”
After his father-in-law Hu Wei pointed out the method to break out of the situation to Zhu Yi, he instructed with a solemn expression. From now on, the Duke of Cheng Residence could only follow Zhu Qiyu's path to the end.
Zhu Yi had always trusted his father-in-law's words. Thus, he added another ten thousand gold without hesitation, in order to deepen the weight in Zhu Qiyu's heart.
The smile on Wei Zhongxian's face grew wider as he gave Zhu Yi a thumbs up."If all the dignitaries were like the young duke, why would they let a little Wala be so arrogant? Today's matter, I will definitely report it to Your Highness. The Duke of Cheng Mansion is the foundation of the Ming Dynasty.”
Before coming to the Duke of Cheng's Public House, he had thought that it would be good enough if he could get 50,000 taels of gold. After all, the Duke of Cheng's Public House was not comparable to the Duke of England's Public House. He did not expect to get 70,000 taels of gold in the end.
In addition, not only was it seventy thousand gold taels, Zhu Yi's attitude was also a pleasant surprise.
The reason why Zhu Qiyu was so hostile towards Xun Guibao was because Xun Guibao was not of the same mind as him. If the Duke of Cheng's estate was willing to submit to Zhu Qiyu, then he could start to disintegrate Xun Guibao from the inside until all of them were recovered.
......
This night was not destined to be peaceful!
Wei Zhongxian brought the children of the East Chamber to visit every noble in the capital. With the British Public House and the Duke of Cheng Public House bowing their heads, even if the noble resisted, they could only obediently pay up in the end.
Boxes of gold were transported to Zhu Qiyu.
Five hundred thousand taels of gold!
Cheng Jing was shocked by the number. He didn't expect the nobles in the capital to be so rich.
Each and every one of them had too much money.
Zhu Qiyu stepped forward and patted Wei Zhongxian's shoulder, his eyes full of praise.""Well done!"
With this five hundred thousand gold taels, there were many things he could do.
"This is what I should do!"
Wei Zhongxian bowed slightly without any arrogance.
He was very self-aware and did not become arrogant just because he had raised five hundred thousand taels of gold.
Zhu Qiyu waved his hand and said,"Alright, you've been busy all night. Go and rest first."”
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Wei Zhongxian nodded and left the Palace of Heavenly Purity.
Just as Zhu Qiyu had said, other than a few nobles, most of them had been threatened and intimidated by him before they reluctantly took out the money.
After a busy night, he was indeed very tired.
"Zhu Yi!"
Zhu Qiyu looked at the night sky outside the window, his eyes revealing a thoughtful look.
If the dignitaries could be used by him, then he would be able to put more energy into the grasslands in the north. Wala, Tartar, Wuliangha, these were all enemies of Ming Dynasty. Since they had come, he had to destroy these people and turn the grasslands into a horse farm for Ming Dynasty.
......
The British Public House!
Under the cover of the night, many distinguished figures arrived at the British Public House.
Just as Cheng Jing had worried, Wei Zhongxian's crazy actions caused a huge uproar among the nobles.
Handing over a large sum of money for no reason, the hearts of the dignitaries were bleeding.
Chen Mao looked at everyone with a gloomy expression.""Everyone, we have gathered here today for only one purpose. Tomorrow, we will go to King Hun and demand an explanation.”
Since he had already taken out the money, it would be impossible for him to get it back. Since that was the case, he would let Wei Zhongxian die.
"That's right. We can't get the money back anyway. Since that's the case, we'll let Wei Zhongxian die.”
"Wei Zhongxian is just a dog of King Hun. If we gather together, King Hun won't oppose us because of Wei Zhongxian.”
"That's right, we have to kill Wei Zhongxian.”
“......”
Everyone responded to Chen Mao's words. They were also filled with anger by Wei Zhongxian.
Since he couldn't get the money back, he would kill Wei Zhongxian to vent his anger. After causing such a huge commotion, he believed that Zhu Qiyu wouldn't dare to protect Wei Zhongxian.
Looking at the angry nobles, Zhang Rong's eyes flashed with a bright light and he said in a deep voice,"Everyone, His Majesty is still suffering in Wala. If His Majesty was here, he would never allow King Hun to do such a thing.”
Now that Zhu Qiyu had provoked public anger, if he did not take the opportunity to stir things up, wouldn't it be a waste of Zhu Qiyu's opportunity to deliver himself to his doorstep?
