The next day, Cui'er came in and said, "My son-in-law is here, my wife asks the lady to go out. ※%"

Lu Shufang, who was being teased by Qin Suqiu, talked last night, pretended to be careless: "What are you calling me? Just ask my elder brother to accompany you."

Cui'er explained: "The eldest young master came and had to pack his luggage again, so he asked the lady to accompany him."

"I understand." Lu Shufang agreed, but her body did not move at all, so the three women teased each other: "Go quickly and go quickly, don't ask your brother-in-law to wait for a long time."

Lu Shufang smiled, rubbed for a while before walking out, and entered the next yard, his mother, Jin, was talking to her son-in-law. Xu Kun looked at his wife whom he hadn't seen for a day, and today he was wearing a purple pearl-brown dress. The white satin plate on the cuffs of the collar and cuffs were embroidered with palindrome swastikas. He seemed to have a happy face and a shy look on his eyebrows.

Naturally, he didn't know that most women like to compete. This time, Lu Shufang was both face and inner self-cultivation in front of him, and all his dissatisfaction with him was gone. Although he still had a little regret, no one was perfect.

Lu Shufang first asked his mother for peace, then sat next to her mother with a smile on her face, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised.

The beautiful style of Xu Kun made him feel itchy, and his mind was filled with the wonderful scene of immediately performing the Zhou Gong ceremony with his wife, and he looked anxious.

As a veteran, Jin laughed at it. The more loving the couple was, the more relieved she was. Thinking about her first marriage, her husband was so young that he almost had the idea that he would care about day and night? However, when he got older, he could go to a room once or twice a month, and he was about to burn incense.

Facing her husband's passionate gaze, Lu Shufang subconsciously lowered her head and suddenly found that Jin Ju and the others were hiding behind the screen and peeping. She suddenly blushed and felt a little embarrassed.

Jin asked, "I heard that there is good news from my in-laws, but I wonder if it is accurate?"

"Uh." Xu Kun was conscious when asked. He replied in a serious manner: "My father was ordered to train troops in Henan last year. Due to the delay, the commander has already assigned people. Yesterday, the Ministry of War ordered my father to inspect the major military camps in the capital. Today, he was about to leave Beijing, so the son-in-law dared not sit for a long time."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Shufang's elder brother Lu Xu walked in. The two of them said a few words. Xu Kun looked at his wife reluctantly and said goodbye to Jin.

Lu Xu, who was unknown, said, "What's the hurry? At least have lunch?"

"Let your son-in-law go." Jin explained a few words on his behalf and said, "Don't worry. I'll send Shufang back tomorrow morning."

Seeing that it was a serious matter, Lu Xu sent Xu Kun out immediately, then hurried back to the room to change his clothes, and rushed to the Xu Mansion to see him off, and did not come back until the afternoon.

As soon as he entered the house, Lu Xu said, "Mom! No, do you know that the Zhu family of Chengguo Gong was broken?"

Jin was shocked and asked, "What happened?"

"I don't know the details of what happened." Lu Xu sighed, "At that time, the fourth master was busy leaving Beijing. He didn't explain in detail, but said that he was jointly impeached by the Thirteen Censors. It probably wouldn't be able to get it. Now Duke Cheng has been dismissed from his post and returned to Beijing to listen to the training. I don't know if he can retain his title."

"Ouch!" Jin suddenly became anxious, "Then the money we have to pay him back quickly."

Lu Xu rubbed his hands and said, "I am also worried about this. Fortunately, the Zhu family did not know the good or bad of the case. It seems that they had entrusted all the gold and silver that existed in the Xu family to Mr. Xu San. If there was a good man, Cheng Guogong had no children, his property would be fully handed over to Mr. Third. At this moment, I can't tell this, in short, our family just asks the Xu family for the money."

"How can a good country be overturned?" Jin was puzzled, but he no longer worried that the money would be gone.

When Lu Xu came out, his husband and his wife wanted to go back to their hometown to handle everything according to the plan, but they would not come back for a while.

The couple went to the next yard to say goodbye to their sister, and gave a few words to Qin Suqiu, asking the Qin family to take care of themselves, and wait for him to come back to thank him. Even the trivial matters at home were to be taken care of by Qin Suqiu, and Qin Suqiu agreed.

Lu Xu said to Jin Ju again: "I just arrived at the tent and said goodbye to my uncle. He was busy and asked my sister to take the blame for her when she went back."

"Yes." Jin Ju also agreed.

Lu Xu turned to Shi Suoqin and said a few words to ask for care, and Shi Suoqin also nodded.

Xu Mansion Study Room, Mu Yun and Qin Cheng and other confidants arrived, and Xu Hao frowned and listened to them.

The incident happened without warning, which was caused by Xu Hao's negligence in this regard. It turned out that as the Xu family established a bank bank, all parties inevitably followed suit, and the Zhu family opened a large silver house that was no less than the Xu family.

Therefore, it is the most basic financial thing, and there is no stock market or anything else, so Xu Hao did not take it seriously. In fact, he had no way to and ability to conduct macro-intervention and construction. So many silver dealers began to compete disorderly, and he strictly controlled his own silver dealers. The problem was that he could not control other people's silver dealers.

The Zhu family relied on the title of Duke of the Kingdom, and the business of Yinzhuang expanded rapidly. In just ten years, it almost spread all over the country. However, the Zhu family itself was in chaos and lacked supervision. All the concubines were ulterior motives, which led to the shopkeepers and shopkeepers from various parts of the country, lending usury, embezzling customers' silver, hoarding goods, etc., which gradually had a very bad impact. Therefore, the censors from various places collectively wrote letters to impeach them.

In the end, Xu Hao weighed the matter repeatedly and decided to allow the next situation to develop. After all, there was no manipulation and interference from foreign forces. To put it bluntly, he only had a little understanding of financial knowledge and could only let it go.

At this time, the Zhu family was completely in chaos. When Xiao came to visit, he saw the room full of people, including the aunt and two ladies, and the wife of the Zhu family cried in a mess.

Xiao said, "Don't cry, don't be confused, the sky has not yet collapsed."

The Zhu family's wife cried and said, "What else can I say?"

Xiao frowned and said, "Our family's heroes in Jingnan are on the fire at this time, so it is naturally not good-looking. Moreover, after the ministry's peace meeting, there will be a turning point when the order comes."

"Madam, you don't know." The Zhu family sighed, pointed to a stack of letters on the table, and said tragically: "Yesterday, Peking came to 800 miles and rushed, saying that the Jinzhe over there had been collapsed, and the branch gate of Henan, Hebei and Shandong were fled. I don't know how much money I stole. Then I received the Zhu family silver gate from Songjiang Prefecture, and more than a dozen branch gates from Jiangsu and Guangdong were finished. There were also four major silver gates in Fufeng, Hubei, Yongkang, Fujian, Hongyu, and Deji, Sichuan, were also forced to stagnate. Even the three families in Jinling could not hold on and were flocked to the point of withdrawing silver by the people. Alas! They lost millions of taels of silver, which made public opinion boil. This time my family was really doomed."

Xiao immediately took a breath of air, and then he realized that the Zhu family had not only one silver account, but had so many houses behind their backs? No wonder his son smiled bitterly and looked helpless.

What banks fear most is the bank run, and Xu Hao had no intention of saving it. This is a very vivid financial class, which allows people to see the consequences of arbitrary operations. It seems that the most important thing for banks is good business reputation and sound financial regulations.

Xiao said anxiously: "I don't care about it at this time. I'll send out all the hidden silver in the mansion. I should pay back all the owed silver. If it's not enough, I'll send it out quickly and try to make up for the holes. If there are no troubles in all places, it's really bad."

The wife of Zhu also knew the pros and cons, so she hurriedly ordered the internal and external accounts to hand in the account book and check all the property. She didn't know if she didn't check it. She was shocked when she checked, and the aunts actually had a lot of loan notes to make a lot of profits, which was a serious crime.

Ganqing Palace.

Emperor Xuande Zhu Zhanji was furious, and the censor impeached the twelve charges of Duke Cheng's mansion. What are the greed, the failure to cultivate private morality, exploiting common people, and the slaves who rely on their power to act recklessly. They force their wives, seek money and kill lives, etc.

The Ministry of Justice discussed the charges of circumcising the prison and beheading it, but fortunately there were million taels of silver. The Zhu family made up 500,000 taels. Xiao ignored his son's opposition and forcibly withdrew 200,000 taels from Zhu Qiaoqiao. In addition, the families of the major Dukes and Hou Bo helped them and barely made up for it.

Xu Hao, Zhang Fu and others went to the palace to plead for mercy. The emperor issued an order to search the house, and Zhu Yong immediately sent it to the border to serve. Zhu Yong, who actually managed those silver houses, felt that he had no face to see others and committed suicide at night fearing the crime.

In short, the title of Duke of the Kingdom has disappeared, but it can be inherited by Zhu Yong's eldest son from generation to generation. This is the bottom line of the meritorious nobles such as Xu Hao and will never be destroyed.

Zhu Yong did not involve treason, and the civil officials did not want to be enemies with Xu Hao and other meritorious deeds. Zhu Zhanji took the opportunity to take back the Zhu family's iron scrolls of alchemy books.

As a result, Xu Hao transformed from a person with a family and country to a feudal aristocrat who only cared about his own selfishness. He gradually grew up regardless of the aristocratic families, and in the future he would become a roadblock that hindered the progress of the country and nation.

For Xu Hao, what else can't see when he is old? He is also pursuing the strength of the country. Because the country is prosperous, his descendants will enjoy wealth and honor. As for the welfare of the people? Sorry, he enjoys the service of his servants with peace of mind. Master Xu San, who has long been disdainful of the people.

The Ministry of Justice and the Jinyiwei were ordered to confiscate the Zhu family. Hundreds of people searched out all the property, issued a list, and sealed the boxes and cages. Even if the Zhu family made a fuss, the amount of money copied was still less than 200,000 taels of silver, not to mention the wealth transferred out by everyone in advance.

The Minister of Justice secretly talked about it, but was entrusted by Zhang Fuzhi and did not speak out. Seeing that there was no ban on the list, he ordered people to seal most of the Zhu family's residences and move them away within three days, leaving only the main house and the inner garden.

In the blink of an eye, the wealth and honor came to an end. Mrs. Zhu and her concubines cried very much, and some even fainted. The monks fell down from the tree and scattered, and the people of the Zhu family and their families scattered and found their way to live.

Once the family was in decline, the disheartened Mrs. Zhu sighed: "Now our family can't afford these people. Stay behind those who are willing to stay, and let them go if they are willing to leave."

In such a miserable scene, the two generations of concubines shed sad tears, but who did not have much money to put outside? Except for Zhu Yong's concubines who had no choice, most of them had no intention of staying in the Zhu family and suffering as widows.

If they didn't say it, how could the Zhu family's wife not see it? She didn't care about protecting the decent husband and son, otherwise, if she locked up these old and dissatisfied women, God knew what would happen?

So he called the concubines over and allowed them to marry or make a living by themselves. The old lady was looking forward to a miracle. As a result, more than a dozen women, including Zhu Noyu's biological mother, knelt down without hesitation, and left overnight with their personal maids and their families.

The Lu family, who is determined to pursue happiness, even wants his daughter. Since he has had an affair with his servants, he has long been damnable.

However, Zhu Ruizhu's mother was unwilling to leave, and there was also a concubine named Su. The old lady knew that they had always been kind-hearted. Seeing that Su couldn't help crying, she nodded with tears in her eyes, and asked who would be dismissed. As a result, most of the servants planned to fly away.

In the end, there were only a dozen girls left, and only twenty servants left. Once a while, the huge Duke Chengguo Mansion immediately did not look like a big family. She felt deeply saddened by her husband for a night.

A few days later, the Zhu family's wife who didn't want to stay in Jinling ordered the whole family to handle the few left luggage, hired a large ship, and prepared to return to her hometown.
