Returning to the Ming Dynasty as a Corrupt Emperor

Transmigrated to the Great Ming Dynasty, I became Emperor Zhu Youxiao, the Carpenter Emperor. Well then, I'll hide behind the scenes; I'll take the blame, and you all go die.

Chapter 342 Anyone can be the Yansheng Duke!

Kong Yinzhi kowtowed profusely, his voice filled with tears as he said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, why do you say that? If Your Majesty wants it, I am willing to offer you all my property. I don't want a penny."

"I compete with the people for profit and seize the property of my ministers. Do you think I am a tyrant?" Zhu Youxiao stood up suddenly and shouted, "Is it that in your eyes, I am the greatest tyrant in the world?"

"I dare not, I dare not!" Kong Yinzhi said quickly: "I am willing to donate all my property!"

After hearing this, Zhu Youxiao's anger not only did not subside, but became even more intense.

He walked down the stairs quickly and kicked Kong Yinzhi to the ground.

This scene scared everyone, even Chen Hong.

The emperor had just made some harsh remarks, and now he actually took action. How angry is he?

In such a long time, Chen Hong has never seen the emperor like this.

After Zhu Youxiao kicked Kong Yinzhi down, he angrily asked, "Do you feel wronged?"

"The Duke of Yansheng's Mansion is a family tradition of poetry and etiquette. Look at what you've done! Seizing land, forcing women into prostitution, trafficking in human beings, and even reselling disaster relief grain—this is also what your family is capable of!"

"Don't deny it and say that the people below you are ignorant, and don't say that those people have no connection with your family. Who can be fooled by such words? Do you really think I am a fool?"

Zhu Youxiao looked at Kong Yinzhi and said directly, "You look so aggrieved, as if I were going to deprive your family of their property. Is that yours?"

"That's mine. The whole world belongs to me!"

"Duke Yansheng, Confucius has so many descendants, anyone can be Duke Yansheng!"

After saying this, Zhu Youxiao turned around and walked back to his chair and said, "Chen Hong, summon several cabinet ministers to the palace, and summon Zhang Weixian to the palace."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Chen Hong quickly agreed.

At this time, Kong Yinzhi was really panicked.

Just now, he still had a hope in his heart. Although His Majesty's words were harsh, they would not shake the foundation of the Kong family. It was nothing more than a little money.

The reason why Kong Yinzhi said he was willing to give up all his property was that he knew that His Majesty would not accept it. If His Majesty really confiscated all the Kong family's property, what would the people of the world think?

However, Kong Yinzhi did not expect that his little thoughts were seen through by the emperor, causing the emperor to be furious.

Kong Yinzhi quickly knelt down and took a few steps forward, wanting to say something.
