Zhou Yanru was ready to be tortured, and couldn't help gritting his teeth for a while, secretly cheering himself up, and said in his heart: "If I can survive, I will definitely get a good reputation in Shilin in the future, and then I will be supported by the officials of the world, and it will undoubtedly be easier to enter the cabinet in the future!"
If you are killed by the people of Dongchang, you can still leave a good name!
But he undoubtedly can't admit that he has planted eyeliner in the inner court, so he will not only die but also get a good reputation!
Even the scholars would not write me down in their notes, lest they tarnish the name of the entire scholars!
After all, Dr.
Wenchen has always been the most loyal and honest person, how could he do such a despicable thing as installing an eyeliner to spy on the Son of Heaven?
”But Zhou Yanru didn't expect that the people in Dongchang did not punish him, and only pressed him a few days ago and forcibly inhaled the smoke produced by the burning of a black powder.And suck it every other day.But I haven't sucked him again after the last ten days.But Zhou Yanru miraculously found that he wanted to take another puff of the smoke produced by the burning of the black powder.The further back he went, the more he thought.Zhou Yanru even found that he was already crazy because he wanted this.When Wei Zhongxian came to Dongchang again, he couldn't help but pounce on Wei Zhongxian, and because of this, he slammed directly into the cell door, making a loud noise.Wei Zhongxian looked over because of the sound.And Zhou Yanru took the initiative to shout: "Factory father, factory father, factory father, please, please be merciful, give me another suck of the black powder you gave me before, I seem to love this thing very much!"
”Wei Zhongxian smiled and asked, "Then you tell our family, who people have you installed in the inner court, and what do you want to do when you install these people?"
”Zhou Yanru subconsciously replied: "No, there is no such thing." ”"No, you have, you have done such a thing, you can only breathe the black incense if you admit it."
As he spoke, Wei Zhongxian took out a white paper bag and shook it in front of Zhou Yanru.Zhou Yanru was about to reach out and take it, but was blocked by the prison door, and then, Zhou Yanru roared angrily: "Give it to me!"
To this officer!
This official is written by Hanlin, this official is the champion of the Ming Dynasty, you give it to me, you don't give it to me, I will kill you!
”Wei Zhongxian didn't get angry, just looked at Zhou Yanru and got angry.And Zhou Yanru became very sad after he got angry, and finally couldn't help but say: "I can't, I can't admit it!"
”"You have to admit it, admit it, our family will reward you for this!"
As Wei Zhongxian spoke, he put the white paper bag in front of Zhou Yanru again and shook it.Zhou Yanru pounced again, but he pounced, so he had to say, "Okay, I admit it, I admit it." ”"Then who did you put in, and why did you install these people?"
Wei Zhongxian continued to ask.Zhou Yanru now only looked at the white paper bag in Wei Zhongxian's hand with burning eyes, lost his mind completely, and only said: "Du Zhizhi, the young eunuch of the internal official prison, and the nurse Mei Mama next to the fifth prince of the first emperor......"
Wei Zhongxian was shocked when he heard this, thinking that he had actually placed someone next to the fifth prince Zhu Youzhen, and said secretly: "These Donglin party people are really bold!"
The chess pieces are also very far-reaching!
”Wei Zhongxian then asked, "Why do you want to install these people?"
”"If you want to know the secret of the inner court, the most important thing is what kind of Son of Heaven is, and if the Son of Heaven is not a good Son of Heaven, let's see if we can find a chance to replace the Son of Heaven!
We don't want the Son of Heaven to be an unkind Son of Heaven!
”Zhou Yanru looked at the white paper bag with his eyes and said.Wei Zhongxian stood up in surprise, subconsciously threw away the white paper bag in his hand, pointed at Zhou Yanru and roared: "Bold!
”Zhou Yanru didn't take it seriously at all, he just snatched the white paper bag that fell on the ground, and found that he couldn't smoke it for a while, so he had to yell again: "Fire, I want fire!"
”......
"Give him fire!"
”Zhu Youxiao looked at Zhou Yanru, who was also frantically trying to smoke black incense in front of him, and dropped a sentence, and then returned to the warm pavilion of Qianqing Palace with a serious expression, and asked Wei Zhongxian to return to the warm pavilion with him.After receiving the results of Wei Zhongxian's report on the interrogation of Zhou Yanru and others in the inner court, Zhu Youxiao personally interrogated Zhou Yanru again by means of black incense.After confirming that it was correct, Zhu Youxiao had to be more sure of all his suspicions, although the vested interests no longer easily have the ambition to usurp the throne and become the emperor, but they have the ambition to replace a favorite emperor or control the Son of Heaven to become their ideal Son of Heaven.If this kind of development continues, it is obvious that it is becoming more and more bourgeois, that is, he wants to make the political leader in front of the stage an image that conforms to his heart.And if it does not meet, it is not excluded to get rid of it by assassination.Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but ask Wei Zhongxian: "Is Fan Yuqing the same statement?"
It was also to see if the Son of Heaven was their ideal Son of Heaven that they bought off the eunuch of the Qianqing Palace?
”"Back to the emperor, it's basically the same."
Wei Zhongxian replied cautiously.He didn't expect that after he took charge of the East Factory and strengthened the factory guard according to His Majesty's request, he would dig out such a terrifying secret.Wei Zhongxian had to admit that he had also gained a lot of knowledge, and he also had a deeper understanding of these Wenchen.Any era, any character, is slowly growing up through what is experienced.Wei Zhongxian is no exception, he only wants to know what his emperor will do now, whether he wants to be a benevolent and virtuous monarch in the hearts of others, or still be an emperor who is the same as the Ming Dynasty.Zhu Youxiao pondered for a long time after hearing this, and said, "Go and bring Zhou Yanru over." ”"Slave obeys!"
Wei Zhongxian immediately retreated as he spoke.Then, Zhu Youxiao instructed Liu Ruoyu: "Send an edict to Ma Xianglin, Chen Xin and others, let them enter the palace immediately, serve as the head of the inner factory to punish thousands of households, assist you in the inner factory, immediately arrest people according to the list provided by Zhou Yanru and Fan Yuqing, and go to the edict prison after being arrested!"
If anyone resists, kill them!
”"Yes!"
Liu Ruoyu retreated.Thereupon.On the same day, countless eunuchs and palace maids in the entire Forbidden City were arrested.And because the executor is Ma Xianglin and other people who have just come to Beijing and have no foundation, the foreign court does not know anything about this matter.At this time.Zhou Yanru, who had smoked black incense in the small room, returned to normal, and suddenly felt that his spiritual platform was very clear, and he was still the talented champion Lang, and he was still the prime minister of Hanlin who would enter the cabinet in the future.But Zhou Yanru suddenly realized that he seemed to have once again said the true thoughts in his heart and the hearts of all Donglin officials.And this time it was said in front of the Son of Heaven."
Oh my God!
Why did I suck this again!
This thing is poisonous!
It's poisonous!
”Zhou Yanru cried out bitterly.When Wei Zhongxian ordered someone to bring him to Zhu Youxiao again, he hurriedly denied it: "Your Majesty!
The minister's previous words were all lies, and Wei Zhongxian used the so-called black incense to confuse the minister's soul. ”
