Chapter 832: Killing the Rebellious Traitor

It was night, the moon was dark and the wind was high.

Lin Yongzhong, the prime minister of the Great Wu, once again asked to see Wu Sansi.

Facing this emperor who had been decadent for most of the day, Lin Yongzhong took a deep breath.

"Your Majesty, are you still drinking to drown your sorrows?"

"Do you know what's happening outside?"

"Among those aristocratic families who welcomed you into the Nineteen Prefectures of Jiangdong, some have already regretted it!"

"After you entered the Nineteen Prefectures of Jiangdong, not only did you not bring them great benefits, but you actually snatched their food and supplies. How could they possibly be kind to you?"

Wu Sansi looked up dejectedly at Lin Yongzhong, feeling extremely heartbroken.

It would have been fine if Fang Ruhai had just lost, but those aristocratic families actually wanted to rebel against him!

Is he, Wu Sansi, really so incompetent?

Isn't he worthy of these people risking everything and risking their lives for him?

"His Majesty!"

Lin Yongzhong stepped forward and forcefully snatched the wine glass from Wu Sansi's hand.

He looked at the emperor with disappointment, then threw the wine glass to the ground.

Wu Sansi came back to his senses, looked at his empty hands, then looked at the magnificent palace, the wine jar on the ground, and his "golden cup".

The good wine spilled on the ground is worth a lot of money!

"You are presumptuous!"

"I am still the emperor, how dare you treat me like this!"

He looked at Lin Yongzhong angrily, feeling humiliated.

Lin Yongzhong was not afraid of the timid Wu Sansi at all, and said fiercely:

"If you don't listen to good advice, you won't be emperor anytime soon!"

"Those aristocratic families are now preparing to rise up in rebellion and attack you, the Emperor of Great Wu. When their private armies come to attack us, let's see what you will do!"

Wu Sansi's anger gradually subsided.

When his safety was threatened, Wu Sansi regained his sanity. He exhaled and the smell of alcohol gradually dissipated.

"They dare to raise an army?"

"Whether they will actually raise an army, I don't know, but I do know that they are already discussing it."

"Then, Yongzhong, are you willing to accompany me on this journey?"

"Hmph, I'm not afraid of anything, even if it means climbing mountains of swords or descending seas of fire. I'm just accompanying Your Majesty on this journey, so why should I be afraid?"

"Alright, then you and I, the king and our subject, will go and settle accounts with them tonight!" Wu Sansi's expression was ruthless. "I want to see tonight who dares to rebel against me!"

Wu Sansi took Lin Yongzhong's wrist and walked outside.

"Order the Imperial Guards Commander Wu Fuhai to accompany me out of the palace with a thousand Imperial Guards!"

"Here!"

"Shanyin is under martial law tonight. After the martial law order is issued, no one is allowed to leave the mansion. Otherwise, they will be executed!"

"Here!"

"I will completely bury these traitors tonight!"

Wu Sansi was a violent and cruel man. He had only one attitude towards those who worshipped him as emperor but wanted to rebel against him, and that was to kill them.

He asked for some food and fodder, but these people were unwilling to give them. If Li Cunxi's army really arrived in Yuezhou, these people would probably open the city and surrender immediately.

Lin Yongzhong, who left the palace with Wu Sansi, had already revealed a barely perceptible smile in the darkness.

These aristocratic families gave him a good opportunity tonight.

Originally, he didn't know how to deal with the local aristocratic families and was worried about it.

Now that these people are seeking their own death, we have no choice but to get rid of them all.

Once these people died, only a few thousand new recruits of the Imperial Guards would be left, and they would be the lambs that Li Cunxi could kill whenever he wanted.

By then, Li Cunxi could lead the cavalry to invade Shanyin and overthrow Wu Sansi's pseudo-Wu regime.

It's time for Xue Qinglin to reveal his real name.

According to the route given by Lin Yongzhong, Wu Sansi led the Imperial Guards and marched all the way to the west of Shanyin City.

In the Zhu family's mansion in Jiangdong, Wu Sansi indeed saw dozens of patriarchs of Jiangdong families.

Looking at the clan leaders gathered together, Wu Sansi let out a cold laugh, which seemed to be mocking, but also seemed to be... helpless.

"What do you have to say?"

Zhu Can of the Zhu family glanced at the silent crowd, then took a big step and walked out.

He pointed at Wu Sansi, his eyes seemed to be spitting fire.

"Think twice!"

"You still ask us what we have to say. What can we say to you?"

"We have abandoned everything, shouldering the stigma of being traitors, and are willing to welcome you into the Nineteen Provinces of Jiangdong. But what benefits have you given us?"

"When you came, we built the palace for you, and Fang Ruhai is also our Jiangdong general!"

"But how have you treated us? All you've given us are petty, insignificant positions! You've forced us to donate grain for the war, and you've threatened us if we refuse!"

"Mang Sansi, Mang Sansi, we were so blind that we chose you, a scoundrel, and made you emperor. We then became traitors!"

Zhu Can was very angry and couldn't calm down for a while.

Wu Sansi raised an eyebrow at him and asked, "Are you done?"

Zhu Can snorted coldly: "I am extremely disappointed with you, Mang Sansi, and I have nothing to say to you!"

After saying that, Zhu Can looked at Lin Yongzhong.

Before Wu Sansi entered the Nineteen Prefectures of Jiangdong, Lin Yongzhong was the governor of Suzhou.

He went to find Lin Yongzhong.

At that time, most of the aristocratic families in the 19 states of Jiangdong had reached a consensus. They felt that the Great Zhou was rotten, and they wanted to find a new master for Jiangdong. This master was Wu Sansi, who was the right prime minister of Wenchang at the time.

The reason he was looking for Lin Yongzhong was because Lin Yongzhong was quite famous in the Nineteen Prefectures of Jiangdong. Suzhou, where he was, had become prosperous in just two or three years.

After the Nineteen States of Jiangdong split away, a civil servant with outstanding achievements was definitely needed. The civil servant leader he chose for the Nineteen States of Jiangdong was Lin Yongzhong.

He firmly believed that Lin Yongzhong would be the first civil servant to "take the blame".

Lin Yongzhong did not disappoint him. Wu Sansi took a liking to him at first sight and appointed him as prime minister.

However, as Lin Yongzhong's leader, Zhu Can did not drift away from Lin Yongzhong.

Today, Zhu Can wants to use justice to pull Lin Yongzhong back to his side.

Zhu Can: "Yongzhong, you were originally the governor of Suzhou, and you performed your duties diligently. But the thief Mang Sansi is trying to split the Great Zhou..."

Lin Yongzhong looked at Zhu Can coldly and said, "Shut up!"

He knew very well that Zhu Can pushed him to the position of prime minister not only because of his outstanding political achievements, but also because he wanted him to take the blame and suffer the consequences.

These people want to get something for nothing and want him to be grateful to them.

Is he Shark Arm?

Zhu Can was anxious and asked, "Yongzhong, what do you mean?"

Wu Sansi smiled and said, "The Emperor of the Great Zhou changed my name and called me Mang Sansi. You followed suit. However, even if you say it to the sky, Yongzhong is still my man."

As Wu Sansi expected, Lin Yongzhong's face turned cold in the firelight.

"I eat the salary provided by the emperor, and I should repay his kindness!"

"Since I, Lin Yongzhong, have followed Your Majesty, there is absolutely no possibility of retreating!"

"Even if I die, I will accompany Your Majesty and die gloriously!"

"You want to mess with my mind?"

"no way!"
