But at this moment, Gao Shiqi hurried to Bai Yangcui's place and gasped: "Lord! The Imperial Army, the Imperial Army suddenly came! Let's come to our Duke's Mansion!"

"What!"

Bai Yangcui stood up in horror and said, "It's not time to burn these Han slaves to death."

Bai Yangcui said, and ordered: "Save it quickly and let someone go and save it. It's too late to silence it now! In addition, let Du Fu Yin drag the people of the Imperial Army first!"

Although Bai Yangcui was already the lord of a principality, he really did not dare to confront the Ming court on the surface.

Because throughout the Ming Dynasty, most people wanted to replace the position of Duke Yi and obtain the fiefdom of Prague.

Therefore, if Zhu Youxiao really wanted to destroy Bai Yangcui's vassal state, some people would be willing to work hard for the court.

Today's Ming Dynasty is not short of those who can conquer and fight well.

Because of this, Bai Yangcui was only afraid of the court from the very beginning.

Even though he never took ordinary Han people seriously.

...

"Where is your king?"

Zhu Hezhen, the Imperial Army General, has indeed entered the city of Prague, and now he has begun to ask questions. Because he heard that the Imperial Army of the Imperial Army of the Imperial Court was coming, he hurried out to greet the Prague prefect Du Lide.

Du Lide hurriedly replied: "Because the Duke's Mansion has been in the water, everyone is busy putting out the fire. Now the Duke is there, but now he has already rushed to this side after knowing that the general is coming."

"I don't know why the Imperial Army came to Yiguo? Please help me to solve my doubts."

Du Lide asked with a smile.

Zhu Hezhen did not answer Du Lide's question, but rushed directly to the Duke of Yiguo's Mansion and said, "Go and save the fire first!"

"I don't know if the general arrives, he will be in a position of greeting, and he will be in a position of greeting!"

However, when Zhu Hezhen was waiting for him to come, he also ran into Bai Yangcui.

Bai Yangcui immediately bowed to Zhu Hezhen and laughed.

Zhu Hezhen just nodded and said, "I didn't expect to meet you when I came here and I saw you, Duke Yi's mansion, please forgive me for being arrogant and wait until the fire is saved together!"

As he said that, Zhu Hezhen led the imperial army to continue to break into the mansion.

He could tell from Du Lide's panicky expression just now and the panicky expression Bai Yangcui showed now that there must be something strange about the so-called water flow.

Therefore, he hurried to the place where the smoke was emitting only this reason.

Not long after, his people arrived here.

At this time, the fire here had been rescued by Gao Shiqi and when he saw the imperial army coming, he said, "It has nothing to do with it, it has been rescued."

Zhu Hezhen only looked at the rescued Han people and asked, "Why are there so many Han people? Who are they in the Duke's Mansion? There are still many young women!"

Zhu Hezhen glanced at Bai Yangcui for this.

"Master! Why are you burning me? I don't know what I did wrong, so I'll ask you to spare my life."

At this time, Bai Yangcui's concubine ran towards Bai Yangcui with her hair scattered and she cried, and knelt in front of Bai Yangcui and kowtowed.

Zhu Hezhen was stunned when he heard this.

Bai Yangcui also glanced at Zhu Hezhen with some fear, then pulled the concubine up, and slapped her backhand on the concubine's face, cursing: "You crazy man, you are playing with fire by yourself, cheating all the hired workers in the mansion, and then igniting the house, but saying such a mess, do you still want your master to live!"

"ah!"

The concubine screamed, then covered her face and looked at Bai Yangcui in shock.

But at this time, the other Han people who were forced to be slaves by Bai Yangcui were so scared that they knelt down because they had just escaped from death: "Master, let us go, let the slaves go!"

Zhu Hezhen was even more shocked when he saw this scene.

Bai Yangcui hurriedly looked at Zhu Hezhen and explained: "General! It's not what you imagined, no, there is a misunderstanding here, please listen to my explanation."

"Duke Yi and all officials from all over the country are detained!"

Zhu Hezhen suddenly shouted.

"yes!"

The imperial army brought by Zhu Hezhen replied loudly, and detained Duke Yi and a group of officials.

Bai Yangcui continued for a moment: "Really, general, there is a misunderstanding here. They are voluntarily slaves. If you don't believe it, you can ask them!"

Bai Yangcui said that, and shouted to the Han people in front of him: "Did you volunteer to be slaves? You talk?"

"Not for this."

Zhu Hezhen replied at this time, then looked at Bai Yangcui and said, "Duke Yi, do you know that because of you, Your Majesty, you almost got kicked to his waist. Even the people who work for you must make Your Majesty the inner minister of your Duke Yi according to your wishes!"

After hearing this, Bai Yangcui was suddenly caught by electricity.

Du Lide next to him also glanced at Zhu Hezhen in surprise.

Gao Shiqi was also shocked.

"I just have a few Han slaves, and I didn't expect this to happen. I have always been loyal to Your Majesty, and I dare not have any unfaithful heart! Really, General, wuwu!"

Bai Yangcui pursed and cried, looked at Zhu Hezhen, and said, "Really! General, if I had known this would have been like this, even if there was a ghost who forced me to do this, I wouldn't dare!"

"If you have a little bit of the idea of ​​compatriots in your nationality, you will not be able to reach this point; if you have such a rich place, your descendants can continue to be rich for generations, and there is also a mansion in which Baiyi is ruled by you, and you are not satisfied and insist on turning your compatriots into slaves! It turns out that you have lost your former ideals and beliefs, which is the shame of my prosperity and development society!"

Zhu Hezhen taught a lesson.

Bai Yangcui was speechless for a moment.

He is also a person educated by Xingming Society. He has been trained by instructors every day since he entered the military academy. How could he not know these principles? How could he not have these enlightenment?

It’s just that he really can’t curb his desires, or in other words, he just wants to be a realistic person and doesn’t like having any ideals.

But those who can control him are idealists.

"What's wrong with so many Han people here? In addition, why did it happen if there are so many Han people going to be burned? What's wrong with reporting? The whistleblower can be regarded as a sign of meritorious service! Will be treated lightly."

Zhu Hezhen said.

"I report it!"

Du Lide shouted at this time.

Zhu Hezhen looked at him.

Du Lide said: "These Han people were indeed Han people bought by Duke Yi from Yazi, and forced them to be their own slaves. However, after the news that the court's East Factory, Jinyiwei, and Censorate were about to come to establish branches in various vassal states, Gao Shiqi, the academic officials made suggestions and silenced the Han people. Duke Yi also adopted Gao Shiqi's suggestions and decided to burn them with fire without leaving any trace."

"The surname is Du! You are a bastard! After all, everyone is from the Shilin. How can you expose and report to each other? You despicable villain!"

Gao Shiqi shouted Du Lidelai excitedly.

Du Lide replied: "At that time, everyone was discussing matters together, not private matters, not as a rumor. Besides, if you commit this crime, do you still want me to hide with you?! The surname Gao, you are also a person with a new education. How can you not know that the times have changed and the hiddenness of each other is contrary to the spirit of maintaining the dignity of the rule of law!"

After hearing Du Lide say this, Gao Shiqi's face couldn't help but swell up, his fat hands pinched into a fist like a bun, and he kept staring at Du Lide and gasping for breath.

Du Lide looked at Zhu Hezhen at this time, and smiled: "I wonder if the general, the vassal minister said just now, can it be considered the merit of reporting?"

Zhu Hezhen nodded.

"Count it."

"General, I also revealed that Duke Yi bought the Han people's teeth by the prefect Duke Du Lide. In addition, Du Lide also bought shares in the Yashang. I wonder if the court found out that, anyway, Du Lide's tribe members did have Yashang, and the vassal minister Gao Shiqi had a prospectus as evidence!"

Suddenly, Gao Shiqi also shouted loudly at this time, and revealed more secrets in the black chain of interests that sold Han people as slaves.

After hearing this, Du Lide immediately jumped up and cursed Gao Shiqi first: "I'm the one with Gao, you stupid! Ya Ye, everyone is a joint venture, everyone will share the profits. Don't you want to give your descendants more money to spend?!"

Gao Shiqi sneered and said, "What do you do so much! - Gao only knows that you, Du Lide, are a treacherous servant, and you will betray your friends for your sake. If you are not kind, don't blame me for being unrighteous!"

"Shut up all the time!"

Zhu Hezhen shouted at this time.

Then, Zhu Hezhen pointed at the two men and said, "You are not better than anyone else. They are all not good things! The kings of various vassal states, even the decent people, will become undecent people when they fall into your hands! A group of old bureaucrats have not changed their habits!"

When Zhu Hezhen scolded him, Du Lide and Gao Shiqi both shut up.

Next, Zhu Hezhen arranged for the Han people who were almost burned to death in vain to register at the Political Department of the Imperial Army, and were preparing to be deported back to Zhongtu, leaving the registration information to confiscate the property of the vassal lord Yi Guofan and his ministers in the future, and give certain compensation to the Han people who were oppressed and enslaved by the vassal lord Yi Guofan and his ministers.

Then, Zhu Hezhen brought Bai Yangcui, Du Lide and others to Beijing to report.

"Ziyun! Where are you from?"

"Hey, isn't this Duke Yi? He's also a crime?"

As Zhu Youxiao began to send more and more central court forces to rectify and control the various vassal states enfeoffed outside, the entire Europe and West Asia area, the Jinyiwei, the Imperial Army, the East Factory, the Censorate and other central government offices appeared in these places more and more frequently.

When Zhu Hezhen was escorting Bai Yangcui and others back to Beijing, he met Zhu Youguan, a clan's son who was on duty in the Jinyiwei.

Zhu Youpu also greeted Zhu Hezhen first.

Both of them have studied at the Imperial Army Military Academy under the Jinyiwei's name and are old classmates for many years.

The relationship has always been good.

So, Zhu Hezhen laughed at this and said, "Didn't you see it all?"——From Yi's country, the Duke of Yi has already known that the Han people are slaves, so I will come here to take it with me."

After hearing this, Zhu Youguan only glanced at Zhu Hezhen: "It seems that your imperial army is still busy next. Since His Majesty ordered the Jinyiwei, the East Factory, the Censorate, the Inner Factory, and the Ministry of Rites to set up branches in each vassal state and dispatched backbone forces to the local area to make the court and the Han people in the world understand the situation of each vassal state, the officials in the courts of the vassal states have discovered many problems. Such as forcing Han compatriots to be slaves is not an individual phenomenon. They even intend to tamper with the text and no longer implement the national policy of Chinese education, and began to believe in other things, and even some people actually have the intention to rebel!"
