Daming: At the start of the showdown, Lao Zhu was stunned

Chapter 249 Zhu Yan Steelmaking
"Slaughter my whole city?" Everyone's expressions became solemn.

"What's going on? Did Zhang Ren say this?" Zhu Su also put aside the joy of reuniting with his two brothers for the time being, and asked solemnly.

"This is the nonsense that Zhang Ren's thief let out when he was fleeing." Ru Taisu explained angrily. "It is precisely because of this statement that the old man vowed to capture him alive for questioning."

"At that time, because these soldiers were useless, they were killed by this thief."

"Before leaving, the thief turned his head and uttered harsh words to the old man, saying that when he turned his head and led the attack, he would slaughter the entire city of Suzhou!"

"Leader..." Zhu Su frowned deeply. "It's just a group of bereaved dogs, where did the army come from?"

"Why, are we going to fight?" Yan Wang Zhu Di looked eager to try. "Talk about fifth, what big event did you do tonight? Why don't you tell me and my second brother quickly?"

"Why does His Royal Highness Yan want to fight?" Ru's old sprayer suddenly became angry again, and pointed his nozzle at Zhu Di: "You must know that if there is a war, the people will suffer!"

"Now the enemy is dark and we are clear. If the thief really has an army hidden, we will lose the opportunity if we don't know his whereabouts!"

"As a prince, he left the capital without permission, and for his own convenience, he forced the soldiers to open the door late at night, taking advantage of the power of the Tian family to act so lawlessly, and ruined the great event of peace..."

"This old man will definitely impeach His Majesty the two Highnesses severely!"

"Old Rutou, it's over, it's over..." Seeing that the faces of Zhu Di and Zhu Xi were not looking good, Zhu Su hurriedly stood up to smooth things over. "Second brother and fourth brother, didn't they just meet Zhang Ren and kill Zhang Ren?"

"Beheading the head of the thief is a great achievement! At least he didn't let this guy hide again."

"That's right." Zhu Xi nodded his head.

"This? The leader of the thief is clearly the turtle in the urn..." Ru Taisu hesitated, and laughed angrily. "Not to mention letting go of a few ordinary thieves because of this..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhu Su directly changed the topic: "Okay, old Rutou. You have contributed a lot to this battle, and no one who forgets you will forget you."

"So, do you think that the 'big army' that the remnants of the Zhang family talk about is in the hands of another missing son of Zhang Shicheng, Zhang Li?"

"It must be so!" Ru Taisu's attention was diverted as expected. "That's why the old man wants to capture the thief Zhang Ren alive, and ask him about the whereabouts of the so-called army and his brother Zhang Li."

Zhu Su nodded.Ru Taisu's judgment is not wrong, a living Zhang Ren is indeed much more effective than a dead Zhang Ren.The Zhang family brothers only killed one of them and they still survived after all. The rest of Zhang Shicheng's remnants can also support the other.Only by killing both of them can it be regarded as truly eradicating the grass.

It is time to try every means to capture Zhang Ren alive, hoping to find out Zhang Li's whereabouts from him.

Not to mention, there is another "big army".

"Ru Yushi don't need to be angry." Zhu Di stepped forward and said. "Although I don't know exactly what happened, but I think it must be that my second brother and I unintentionally ruined the big thing that you and the fifth brother planned tonight."

"Isn't there still someone who fled outside the city alive? This king and the second brother shoulder this responsibility, and those thieves who escaped from the city will definitely be arrested and tortured by you."

Seeing that King Yan dared to act, Ru Taisu's complexion improved a little.Zhu Su laughed and said, "Fourth Brother, you don't need to abolish that Zhou Zhang."

"It's not bright in the east and it's bright in the west. He ran away with Zhang Ren, but I caught a thief here."

He beckoned, and someone brought the heavily tied Chen Hui up.At the side, Ru Taisu and others looked at it, and they couldn't believe it.Zhu Xi also said carelessly: "Why is she still a female?"

"A woman can also be a thief?"

"Second brother, don't underestimate her. This girl has a lot of background." Zhu Su laughed straight, like a weasel who stole a chicken: "Her name is Chen Hui, but she is Chen Youliang's own daughter!"

"Yo?"

Everyone's eyes lit up, Zhu Xi's eyes immediately changed, and he looked up and down at Chen Hui: "Then how can Chen Jiusi give birth to such a handsome girl?"

Zhu Su was embarrassed for a while, how do you think the second brother looks like an old prostitute picked up in a prostitute?
"Bah! Zhu Ming's false king dares to insult my father!" Chen Hui, who had turned his face away without saying a word, turned his head and spat directly at Zhu Xi, who was furious and wanted to twitch She slapped her, and Zhu Su hurriedly stopped her: "Second brother, calm down, calm down."

"If you kill this girl again, Lao Rutou will really be with you forever!"

Sensing Ru Taisu's eyes full of "impeachment" warnings behind him, Zhu Xi finally endured it.Zhu Su waved his hand and asked someone to gag Chen Hui's mouth.Zhu Xing stared at her back and said bitterly: "Old Wu, I will leave the matter of torturing this woman to your second brother."

"How dare you insult me ​​like this, I must avenge this spit!"

"Second brother, why are you angry with the prisoner?" Zhu Su comforted him while muttering in his heart.It seems that Chen Hui is not easy to get along with.Zhang Ren was her concubine, seeing Zhang Ren's head thrown on the ground, there was no sadness in her eyes.

Hearing the discussion of her party just now, she must have guessed what kind of torture she would endure next, but her face remained as calm as ever.

His mind must be extremely dark and deep.Can such a woman get useful information out of her mouth...Zhu Su feels a little bad...

After a group of people met, they went to the government office together.One is to send Chen Hui who was captured alive and a group of dead soldiers to the dungeon, and the other is to let Wei Guan and other Suzhou government officials dispatch servants in the government office to post a list to calm the people.The third is that Zhu Su and Zhu Xi and Zhu Di have reunited after a long absence, so naturally they need to find a place to rest and have a good talk.

"Why are the second and fourth brothers here? Where's the third brother?" Zhu Su poured a cup of tea for each of Zhu Xi and Zhu Di in the quiet room of the government office, and asked with a smile.

"Didn't I just say that the fourth child and I thought you were alone in Suzhou, so we came here to be your companion." Zhu Xi smiled a little far-fetched. "As for the third child..."

"He's been dazed in the palace for the past few days. Even if he leaves the palace, he'll probably just slip into the imperial villa at the foot of Bifeng Mountain. How can he come to Suzhou Mansion with us?" Zhu Di curled his lips.

Zhu Su was taken aback for a moment, and asked him carefully what had happened in the past few days since he left Beijing.

It turned out that after he left Beijing, Lao Zhu was worried that a minister who was guilty of crimes would not be able to intercede in the prince's mansion, so he instead coaxed the young prince who was unknown outside the palace to stand for him, and involved his sons in the Jinyiwei for no reason. In the vortex of "Jingcha", Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, and Zhu Di were all summoned into the palace.

The three finally regained their freedom in the Huangzhuang, how could they bear to let them suddenly live a life without white and black in the palace?Within a few days, the three brothers complained a lot, especially the youngest Zhu Yan.

When Zhu Su left, Zhu Fen had mastered some knowledge of physics and chemistry, and showed great interest in it.For his elder brothers, Zhu Su did not hide the knowledge of later generations, and those manuscripts that must not be read by others were completely open to Zhu Yan.He then plunged straight into the pile of manuscripts and drawings he had written.

Even when he was recuperating from illness, Zhu Yan "unreasonably" pulled himself out of bed to ask questions.I also personally went to glass kilns, cement kilns, hydraulic mills and other places to inspect and verify with reference to the drawings on the spot, often sitting for a day.

"After you left, he plunged into the steel-making kiln in the back mountain where there was no progress. He said that he must toss out the so-called steel-making furnace. When he was dragged back to the palace by his father, he still refused to leave What?" Zhu Di said.

The third brother actually wanted to toss the steel furnace!There is one thing to say, the steel furnace failed repeatedly, and the temperature was always not up to standard, Zhu Su himself almost gave up.After all, he only knew so much about steelmaking, and he had already told all the craftsmen in the Ministry of Industry.

After all, steelmaking is no more than glass soap, it is a heavy industry.The degree of urgency is not more than that of cement, which is not something that can be done overnight, and I have no other quick way.

Zhu Su felt a little funny when he thought of the third brother who was always well-dressed, who was only in the steel-making kiln full of shirtless men, and maybe even shirtless himself.

"By the way, fourth brother, you're telling the truth. The two of you must have been crazy in the palace, so you sneaked out, right? How can you miss me?" Zhu Su said with a smile.
