Back to the Ming Dynasty to be a tyrant

There was also a little daughter-in-law who went to the street to buy vegetables and came home, but when she heard the words, she took out an egg from the vegetable basket she was carrying and threw it at Chen Renzhong, cursing: "You dog thief! If it weren't for Your Majesty, there is another place in this city." Is it good? I’m afraid that Jiannu will be the end of the disaster! You must be afraid that His Majesty will find out that you are corrupt, so you will assassinate His Majesty! I won’t eat this egg today, and I will smash you to death!”

Chen Renzhong was hit straight on the ground by the egg, and Huang Qingqing's expression was quite embarrassed as the eggshell fell from the top of his head.

He couldn't figure out why these people weren't afraid when they saw Jin Yiwei, why they would stand on the side of the faint king and scold him?These people must be crazy.That's right, what experience do these villagers and peasant women have?I don't know the cruelty of Emperor Chongzhen, but blindly stand on the side of the faint emperor, it really makes me feel cold!

However, Tian Ergeng ignored what Chen Renzhong thought. He heard the people scolding Chen Renzhong, but he knew that the effect that Emperor Chongzhen wanted must be like this.Tian Ergeng, who was secretly refreshed, thought that he might be greatly praised by His Majesty after returning home, right?

When they got back to the Imperial Prison, they first ordered people to separate the upper and lower members of the Chen family, and Tian Ergeng and Xu Xianchun interrogated Chen Renzhong first.

Chen Renzhong, who was tied to the wooden frame, watched Xu Xianchun fiddle with the instruments of torture. Although he was terrified that he would die, he didn't dare to confess his guilt. Revenge, let that stupid emperor Chongzhen get what he deserved!

Xu Xianchun looked at Chen Renzhong, knowing that this person would not confess easily, so he said with a smile: "Physician Chen, don't think otherwise. You must have heard of Xu's reputation. Do you want to say it or not?" Yes, it doesn't matter."

Chapter 46 Heart attack

Chen Renzhong obviously didn't want to pay attention to Xu Xianchun.

Xu Xianchun didn't care too much, he forced a smile uglier than crying on his sinister face.

Seeing that Chen Renzhong was still silent, Xu Xianchun picked up something from the table in front of him, and when he shook it off, it turned out to be the painting and calligraphy that Zhou Yanru ordered someone to give to Chen Renzhong.

Xu Xianchun smiled and said: "Physician Chen, this painting was originally owned by Mr. Zhou Yanru and Zhou Ge, right? How did it get into your hands? Do you really think that we Jinyiwei are just for nothing?

Of course, that's fine too.You scholars, you are always very particular about reciprocity, aren't you? "

After mixing the calligraphy and painting in front of Chen Renzhong, Xu Xianchun said again: "Chen Taiyi is still in the same family as Chen Yizhong, Chen Xiangye of the old Song Dynasty? Are you thinking that like Chen Xiangye, you also want to heal people and the country? "

As he said that, Xu Xianchun laughed "poof times" and said: "Master Chen was loyal to the old Song Dynasty in the end, and he was also a famous figure of a generation. Your Imperial Physician Chen has greatly discredited your family, and even murdered you." Son of Heaven."

This sentence hit Chen Renzhong's heart, and Chen Renzhong immediately said angrily: "Shut up! Chongzhen favored the factory guards, and cruelly harmed the people! Even Mr. Huang Liji Huang, who has worked for the country for many years, can peel the skin Grassy, ​​who kills the nine clans at every turn, likes to build the capital, will be the king of Jie and Zhou from now on! Chen's move is to plead for the people! To restore a bright and sunny day to Daming! You, Xu Xianchun, will definitely die in the future!"

Xu Xianchun laughed when he heard the words, and said to Chen Renzhong: "Really? You have worked for the Ming Dynasty for many years? From a scholar to a cabinet assistant, to a family property of more than six million taels?

Do you know how many people in Huang Ge's hometown lost their land because of him?

Let me tell you, there are more than 300 households!Among them, more than [-] families were forced to die!

You don't know, and you certainly don't care.You only want to live in the temple and assist the king, so why do you care about the life and death of those mud legs?

But it doesn't matter, you don't care, Emperor Daxing Tianqi cares, today's day cares!

Of course, I, Xu Xianchun, am not a good person. I am just a dog of the emperor, whoever the emperor asks me to bite, I have to bite.

Now that the emperor attaches great importance to the people, then I, Xu Xianchun, have to bite you people, otherwise, useless dogs will be put into the pot. "

Seeing that Chen Renzhong closed his eyes and remained silent, and returned to the look of wanting to die, Xu Xianchun sighed and said: "Physician Chen, it's okay if you are stupid in reading, but you really don't think about your mother, wife and children." ?”

Chen Renzhong raised his head, looked at Xu Xianchun, and said, "Master Xu, Mr. Chen admits that he has never offended you. I just ask you to give my family a good time. Mrs. Chen seeks benevolence and deserves kindness. I think they can understand Mrs. Chen."

But Xu Xianchun shook his head and said: "I want to disappoint Imperial Physician Chen. If you say it bluntly, Xu can be the master, and if they are happy on the execution ground, they won't suffer in this imperial prison. It's just that you have been Not to mention, what can Xu do?

You have never seen the punishment in this imperial prison. The instruments of torture just now are also for men. Of course you are not afraid, but this woman?Xu will talk to you.

Punishments like riding a wooden donkey are useless to your family, after all, they are not the masterminds and they don't know about it.But this punishment is not good.I hope that Imperial Physician Chen can slowly heal their fingers when he arrives below.

After the punishment, there are still male prisoners in this prison.They are all thieves, and the ordinary prison cells outside can't hold their vicious people.

Nowadays, there are quite a few criminals who have been locked in prison for a long time. Your Gaotang old mother, plus your wife, and that delicate concubine like a flower, they must be very happy, right?

If they can make it through, there will be more behind, but the arm-thin icicles are forced into the birth canal, the taste of it, tsk tsk. "

Chen Renzhong became angrier the more he listened, but he didn't dare to curse, fearing that Xu Xianchun would be really angered, so he immediately begged: "Master Xu, please forgive me! This matter is all done by Chen, and has nothing to do with Chen's family. I beg you Sir, let them go and give them a good time, Chen is willing to give up all his family property, and in his next life he will be a cow and a horse to repay your kindness to Master Xu!"

Xu Xianchun smiled and said: "Look, look, what are you talking about? Are you confused? Why does Xu want your family property? Although Xu is not easy-going, but you are well-versed in this matter, If Xu dared to stretch out his hand, he was afraid that His Majesty would cut his skin.

You, let me just say it happily, you and your family will have a good time, how good? "

Seeing that Chen Renzhong still didn't speak, Xu Xianchun smiled and said: "You don't have to hold on. In fact, it doesn't matter whether you say it or not. The students in the Imperial College will definitely not be able to bear it. Sooner or later they will have to say it. You can also get what His Majesty wants. Besides, there is no evidence, and Xu can also concoct evidence based on this calligraphy and painting alone. In the end, you people will inevitably go to Caishikou."

Chen Renzhong saw that Xu Xianchun even said such shameless things about concocting evidence, and there was no chance in his heart, so he begged: "Master Xu, if Chen confesses, may what Master Xu promised before will count?"

Seeing that Chen Renzhong finally pried open Chen Renzhong's mouth, Xu Xianchun smiled and said, "Physician Chen, don't worry. Xu keeps his word. Your family members must be doomed. No one can save them unless His Majesty grants an extrajudicial favor. But Xu swears to God that before they die, no one will abuse or torture them."

Chen Renzhong laughed miserably, and said, "Thank you so much, Mr. Xu. Even if Mr. Chen died, he would still be grateful for Mr. Xu's kindness. Mr. Chen is willing to recruit. If you want to ask anything, just ask."

Xu Xianchun was overjoyed when he heard the words, but he didn't show it on his face, he just asked indifferently: "Physician Chen, did you poison the emperor's medicine, was it ordered by someone or did you do it yourself?"

Chen Renzhong said: "It's Mr. Zhou Ge. Mr. Zhou ordered someone to send a message to Chen, telling him that today's cruelty is comparable to that of Jie and Zhou. He also gave this calligraphy and painting, and asked Chen if he is willing to eliminate harm for the people. As long as he is like the former emperor, Forgive me, no one will find out."

When Xu Xianchun heard the words, he was secretly startled, the death of the late emperor was really strange.Stabilizing his mind, Xu Xianchun continued to ask: "Is it also Elder Zhou Ge's orders for the matter of the late emperor?"

Chen Renzhong said: "No. The matter of the former emperor has nothing to do with Mr. Zhou Ge. It was Huo Weihua, Minister of the Ministry of War, who told Chen that he temporarily attached himself to the eunuch party, just to get rid of this great harm, and asked Chen to get rid of it. After drinking the spirit dew, it was said that it would be dedicated to Wei Xie. But later, for some reason, it was dedicated to Emperor Daxing Tianqi."

Chapter 47 Torture

The more Xu Xianchun listened, the more frightened he felt in his heart - Huo Weihua's status in the eunuch party was not low, after all, he was named Minister of the Ministry of War.Although Cui Chengxiu also bears the name of Minister of the Ministry of War, but can the Donglin Party and the Eunuch Party be the same?

Moreover, Huo Weihua was the first to attack the Donglin Party every time, and made great contributions to the Eunuch Party, but now he has become a national traitor who killed Emperor Tianqi?

Xu Xianchun really wanted to arrest Huo Weihua and interrogate him right now, and ask him why he wanted to poison the emperor.After all, Emperor Tianqi treated Huo Weihua well.

Fortunately, Xu Xianchun has not lost his mind yet.He clearly knew that the complexity of this matter had exceeded his imagination.Then after asking about the appearance and time of the person who gave Chen Renzhong the gift, he just ordered people to strictly guard Chen Renzhong's family and not allow torture.Afterwards, he took the statement he had recorded on the table and asked Chen Renzhong to sign and draw it later, and hurried to the palace.

When Xu Xianchun arrived at the gate of the palace, he found that the gate of the palace had already been blocked by the staff of the Imperial Horse Supervisor.After finding someone to tell Wang Cheng'en, Xu Xianchun met Emperor Chongzhen after a long toss.

At this time, Emperor Chongzhen was sitting in a daze in the imperial study.He felt that the world was full of deep malice towards him.

But Chongzhen didn't think he was wrong.I just don't want to hang on that old crooked-neck tree, and I don't want to be ashamed of the majestic Yanhuang Miao descendants dragging a pig's tail all over the world. Is this wrong?

Seeing Xu Xianchun come in at this time, he asked, "But did you confess?"

Xu Xianchun knelt down with a "plop", leaned his head on the ground, and said in a trembling voice, "Return to Your Majesty, Wang, the supervisor of the Imperial College, has not confessed yet. But Chen Renzhong has already done so."

As he spoke, he took out the confession he was carrying in his arms, raised his hands above his head, and waited for Wang Chengen to take it to Xuancheng Chongzhen.

Chongzhen took the confession, but saw that Xu Xianchun was still on his knees, not even daring to lift his head, presumably something terrible was revealed in this confession, which made Xu Xianchun so scared.

With curiosity, Chongzhen looked at the confession of imperial physician Chen Renzhong recorded by Xu Xianchun himself.It's just that Chongzhen was already furious before finishing it, and he said angrily: "Okay! Okay! Okay! Sure enough, everyone is so stubborn, they are all fucking good ministers!"

Seeing that Xu Xianchun was still kneeling on the ground, Chongzhen was so angry that he picked up the teacup on the desk and threw it over. Seeing that Xu Xianchun's head was smashed by the teacup but he still didn't dare to move, he said angrily: " Stand up! Kneeling on the ground is fun? I am not the king of Jie and Zhou, what are you afraid of?

Go, take Zhou Yanru, Huo Weihua and the whole family, and give me a good interrogation!Don't let a single one go! "

Xu Xianchun hurriedly took the order and left.After returning to the Imperial Prison, he ordered all the men and horses, and took them separately with Tian Ergeng.It's just that this time, it didn't go as smoothly as when he captured Imperial Physician Chen.

There was no surprise when Tian Ergeng arrested Zhou Yanru's family. Zhou Yanru resigned to his fate as a bachelor, allowing Jin Yiwei to take him away.

It's just that Xu Xianchun, who went to arrest Huo Weihua the other way, was disappointed.Only Huo Weihua was left in Huo Weihua's family, and his family members disappeared.Even the servants at home were condemned by Fangliang documents.
