Fang Congzhe returned to his mansion and said to Liu:

"You asked someone to go to Jiangnan quickly to bring a letter to Shihong, asking him to warn Feng Quan, Ruan Dacheng and others to complete the imperial decree without fail!

You cannot be bribed by the gentry in Jiangnan, and those who should be killed must be killed!

We should give the people the benefits of the court, and we should not be greedy for a single point!

They must do whatever His Majesty wants them to do, otherwise if I find out that there is something that deceives the emperor, I will not protect them!

Let Shihong remember that our Fang family must be different from other powerful and powerful gentry, and our Fang family must have His Majesty in their eyes! Otherwise, in the future, the Fang family will be the next one to be killed by the whole family.”

Liu was quite surprised after hearing this. She didn't expect her husband to mention this when he came back.

Mrs. Liu asked, "What did your Majesty say to the master today? Why did you suddenly remind Shihong and the others?"

"We must remind that the gentry in Jiangnan is the richest gentry in the Ming Dynasty. Now that the court is too strict with them, they naturally have to use money to bribe Feng Quan, Ruan Dacheng and others. After all, since the confrontation cannot be done, they can only bribe them!

Feng Quan and Ruan Dacheng are not really ethical people, so they may be bought by these gentry in Jiangnan and then do something that is not in line with the purpose of the court.”

Fang Congzhe replied.

Seeing that he did not specifically say what the emperor had said to him today, Liu said why he wanted to do this himself, so he didn't ask too much, and just replied: "Okay! I'll go and have someone write a letter to Shihong!"

...

"Students are waiting to kowtow to the platform!"

Suzhou.

Xu Shaoquan and a group of gentry in the south of the Yangtze River met Feng Quan after spending 30,000 taels of silver. They changed their previous attitude and respectfully bowed to Feng Quan.

Feng Quan naturally knew that Xu Shaoquan and other gentry in Jiangnan came to see him, which meant that the gentry in Jiangnan had completely surrendered to him, and began to recognize his power in Jiangnan, and attempted to deal with the court by bribing and winning over him.

And because of this, Feng Quan was very proud.

After all, it is indeed a difficult thing to make the gentry of Jiangnan give in to themselves.

This kind of thing only happened when Hai Rui was Governor Yingtian.

So, Feng Quan said with his hands behind his back: "All up, what's wrong? Suddenly, he mobilized so many troops to come and see me?"

"The students mainly came to offer apology for Mr. Muzhai and Mr. Xianshi. Before this, the scholars in Jiangnan had offended many things to do with the platform. Now I really regret it. Mr. Muzhai and Mr. Xianshi are also very repentant. Therefore, the scholars in Jiangnan agreed to ask the scholars and people in Jiangnan to let go of the crying temple for the sake of the sincere heart of my scholars and people in Jiangnan! If the scholars in Jiangnan can let go, we are willing to offer you a million taels of silver to you."

Xu Shaoquan started talking.

One million taels?!

Feng Quan had to admit that these gentry in Jiangnan were really big.

"I can't decide this matter, it depends on what the little master said."

But Feng Quan was not the one who lost his mind when he heard a huge bribe of one million taels of silver, so he replied this.

"Students understand, so please tell the director that if the little master is willing to show mercy, we are willing to donate three million taels of money to the little master alone!"

Xu Shaoquan said with a hurried smile.

Feng Quan's heart skipped a beat, and he had to admit that these gentry in Jiangnan were really generous.

"It seems that you gentry in Jiangnan are so rich!"

At this time, Fang Shihong came out in a wheelchair.

Xu Shaoquan and the gentry in Jiangnan hurriedly knelt down again: "I have seen the little master, but the students didn't expect your master to be here. It's really a risky idea that the withdrawals from the students just now would be as you wish. If it is not enough, the students will add another 500,000 taels! Or, do you report a number?"

In order to protect Qian Qianyi, Ye Maocai and others, Xu Shaoquan and other gentry in the south of the Yangtze River really decided to rescue them with a lot of money.

Of course, this is not because Xu Shaoquan and others really care so much about the life and death of Jiangnan gentry such as Qian Qianyi and Ye Maocai, but instead, using this way to rescue Qian Qianyi and Ye Maocai to pull Fang Shihong, Feng Quan and others into the water.

Because they had already pulled Xiao near Gao, Man Gui, Zhao Lujiao and others failed.

Therefore, they can only choose to surrender to Fang Shihong and Feng Quan, and use a lot of money to buy them, and to bring Fang Shihong and Feng Quan and other small Fang Party members into the water.

"My father guessed it right. You guys are really terrified. Until now, you don't have His Majesty in your heart, and you don't really take His Majesty seriously!"

Fang Shihong said only this, then turned his wheelchair and left here, leaving only one sentence: "Send off guests!"

Seeing this, Feng Quan had to ask someone to send Xu Shaoquan and others away.

Xu Shaoquan and others were naturally disappointed. They did not expect that they could not pull Fang Congzhe's son into the water even if they spent so much money.

At this time, Ye Chuchun, who followed Xu Shaoquan, even lost his mind because of this, and shouted excitedly: "Slow down!"

Fang Shihong stopped because of this and looked back at Ye Chuchun.

Ye Chuchun shouted directly: "Five million taels! Add Bingjing and Tanjing 500,000 every year! How about it? Fang, even if Ling Zun can be the chief minister like Yan Song for decades, he will not be able to make so much money? Are you so afraid of being discovered by the Dongchang? At worst, we will pay another three million taels. Will Ling Zun, the dignified Yuanfu, still bribed the people of the Dongchang with these three million taels? Or is it that the emperor in the court really favors your Fang family, and will not spare your Fang family because your Fang family has greedyed millions of dollars and cut off your arm?"

Fang Shihong laughed, then said coldly: "This is not a question of money! In addition, my father is not Yan Song. If you say that my father is Yan Song, do you believe it or not, I will be the first to kill you!"

"Feng Quan, let them get out!"

Fang Shihong said and shouted loudly.

Feng Quan was therefore busy and asked someone to drive Xu Shaoquan, Ye Chuchun and others away.

Ye Chuchun, Xu Shaoquan and other gentry in Jiangnan were naturally puzzled. They didn't understand why Fang Shihong was still not moved.

"Little Ge Lao, this one is five million taels, quite a lot."

As soon as Feng Quan said this, Fang Shihong stared at him and said with a smile: "You can go and collect that money and then let Qian Qianyi and the others go, but if the truth is revealed, don't blame our Fang family for not protecting you then!"

"That's not what the officials mean."

Feng Quan smiled.

Fang Shihong took out a letter: "My father has sent a letter. Ruan Dacheng has read it. You can't take a look again. You can't be bribed by the gentry in Jiangnan. It's my father's intention!"

Feng Quan looked at it.

Ruan Dacheng said at this time: "Little Master, Yuan Fu is too cautious? With Yuan Fu's current status, it's not a big deal to collect some money."

"My father is not cautious. He is the one who knows His Majesty the best, and he is also the one who knows the best about what to do. He is also the old man in the Ming Dynasty. We must listen to the old man's words! It's nothing to make money when you do business in Jiangnan. Our Fang family can protect you, but you must not take the public funds belonging to the court and the people and the bribes of the gentry in Jiangnan! Listen to the old man! Don't be disregarded with His Majesty!"

Fang Shihong replied.

Feng Quan and Ruan Dacheng could only agree, after all, their current power depends entirely on the Fang family.

And so.

Qian Qianyi, Ye Maocai, Zhang Pu and others were successfully taken to the execution ground and prepared to be sentenced.

"Fang Shihong and Feng Quan refused to collect cash?"

Ye Maocai stood up from the prison car in shock when he learned about this from Ye Chuchun who was visiting him.

"Really?! Are we really going to die?!"

Zhang Pu also stood up from the prison car in horror and looked at Ye Chuchun.

Ye Chuchun nodded with a serious expression: "Yes! Fang Zhe is determined to be his lackey of Zhu family. I say I give him five million taels of Fang family! I also respect 500,000 yuan every year! But they still don't agree! They want to kill all the gentry in Jiangnan!"

"Thief Fang! You must die a good death!"

Qian Qianyi, who had been silent all the time, had to suddenly curse.
