Daming: The most ruthless tyrant in history

Chapter 92 Capital City Blood
In mid-November of the first year of Taichang, the emperor ordered Jin Yiwei to stay in Beijing and detain the prisoners in the imperial prison to be executed in the Western City. This matter quickly spread among the government and the public after Jin Yiwei.

Beizhen Fusi.

"To execute so many criminals, and it's all Ling Chi, this will definitely cause an uproar in the capital!"

"Yes, with so many officials involved, how can we just let Chi off the hook? Once the censors and officials in the court know about this, they will definitely not let it go."

"You're thinking too slowly. I'm afraid that by now, those officials and censors will know about it."

"If I had known this was the case, I would have left the capital with the commander in the first place. It would have been better than this."

In the main hall, those thousands and hundreds of families who stayed in Beijing gathered together in small groups, often with sad expressions on their faces.

It may not matter if they are interrogated in the imperial prison. After all, they have all been arrested and imprisoned. Even if they do something extraordinary, it will not be brought to them.

But now it is different.

Hundreds of criminals who were detained and imprisoned were all to be executed without delay, even if they were executed in batches. This was a very noisy matter.

The Jin Yiwei has been passed down to this day, especially the middle and high-level groups, who are basically hereditary officials.

In terms of bravery and courage, they are far less ruthless than those in the middle and lower levels, let alone compared to when Jin Yiwei was first established.

"They were all very engaged in the conversation."

Tian Ergen came over with a knife in his shoulder. The flying fish suit was very eye-catching. When he came to the main hall, he saw the people gathered and said with a half-smile but not a smile: "Have you arranged the manpower for the first batch of prisoners to be taken to the West City? "

Xu Xianchun followed beside him, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and his sinister eyes scanned the people in front of him.

"Tian Qianhu, Xu Qianhu."

Seeing Tian Ergeng and Xu Xianchun coming, some people in the crowd hurriedly clasped their fists and saluted. Even though they were airborne to Jinyiwei to serve as Qianhu, both Tian and Xu came to their posts according to the emperor's decree. This also made Liu Jing None of these senior Jin Yiwei officials dared to look down upon these two people.

Even if they are of the same rank, everyone is very polite and even respects them both.

no way.

Who told the two of them to gain the emperor's favor?

"Everyone, no more nonsense."

Xu Xianchun narrowed his eyes slightly, looked around at the people in front of him and said: "Everyone has heard your Majesty's decree clearly. From today on, we are just grasshoppers on the same rope. If the errand goes wrong, whatever the consequences will be. Just think about it yourself.

It is now less than an hour before noon, and the first batch of prisoners who were transferred to the West City for capital punishment are about to leave the imperial prison. How are the arrangements made by the coordinating Military and Horse Department?How is the flag school arranged at Xisi Archway? "

In terms of professionalism, although Jinyiwei has declined in the past, the fact that it involves arrests and executions does not prevent some of them from being proficient in this field.

With so many criminals to be executed, Tian Ergen and Xu Xianchun are under the greatest pressure. After all, so many officials are involved, and some are even members of the Donglin Party. They know better than anyone else that these batch of people who are under the imperial edict will be executed. The criminals detained in the prison were taken to the West City in batches for execution. What kind of infamy would they summon.

But do they have a way out?

No!

After losing the emperor's favor and reliance, it was hard to say whether he could gain a firm foothold in Jinyiwei or whether he could continue to stay in the capital.

The execution of these prisoners detained in the imperial edict was certainly intended to shock the court, but for Zhu Youxiao, it also meant to remove Tian and Xu's escape route.

Zhu Youxiao wanted to kill the two of them personally, as their hands were stained with the blood of civil servants, especially the Donglin Party members. Only in this way would they not commit backstabbing.

"Your Majesty is indeed right."

After all the necessary matters were arranged, Tian Ergen narrowed his eyes and said, looking at the departing figures: "There are many people in the royal guards who have good relations with the ministers in the court. Otherwise, His Majesty's decree will not be issued for long. The news has spread throughout the capital." "Then wait until this execution is over and investigate this matter carefully."

Xu Xianchun nodded and said: "His Majesty has sent someone to tell us before that the Jin Yiwei is a sword and secretly colludes with the outer court. That is a capital crime. We just took this opportunity to clear out Beizhen Fusi."

"Let's handle the case first."

Tian Ergen patted Feiyu's clothes and said meaningfully: "I'm afraid there will be a lot of farce on the way to the West Market after leaving the prison."

"Then grab them all."

Xu Xianchun said with a ferocious smile.

……

"Get out of the way!"

"Jin Yiwei is on an errand, and the rest of the people are waiting to retreat to both sides!"

"According to the imperial edict, Hui Shiyang, Zhang Wenda, Zhang Po and other criminals who committed crimes and deceived the emperor were imprisoned and sent to the Western Market to be executed..."

On the road to the West Fourth Archway, a group of soldiers in uniforms, wearing military uniforms and flying goose feather knives, rode ahead on horseback. Ignoring the soldiers on the left and right who were alert, they kept shouting and shouting as they rode forward. This scene This caused many onlookers to start talking.

"What kind of crime did these commit, that they are all punishable by death?"

"I don't know. I didn't expect these officials to be like this."

"Didn't you hear clearly? Anyone who commits crimes like the one above and those who deceive the emperor will be punished by death."

"It's been years since the Xisi Archway has been punished with Ling Chi's death penalty."

Amid much discussion, Tian Ergeng led the team at the forefront, riding forward on horseback. Behind him, the prison cars moved forward slowly, followed by the Jin Yiwei Banner School on the left and right. They were all on guard as if they were faced with a formidable enemy.

"Haha!! What a fool!!!"

In a prison car, Hui Shiyang, who was covered with bruises, grabbed the shackles and shouted angrily, "Sooner or later, the country of the Ming Dynasty will perish because of you, a fool like you..."

"Go to hell! You're looking for death, right?"

The flag school accompanying the prison car saw that Hui Shiyang dared to say such evil words, so he picked up the Yanling knife and smashed it at Hui Shiyang's face. Hui Shiyang hunched over in pain and said, "If you dare to spit shit again, I will do it first." Cut your tongue!"

"Your Majesty!! I am wronged..."

"Your Majesty!! Spare my life..."

Perhaps feeling the threat of death, the prisoners who were escorted out of the prison remained calm at first, but as they got closer and closer to the Xisi Archway, each one of them started to wail.

"Shout, shout."

Xu Xianchun, who was at the rear, heard the wailing and accusations of the criminals in the many prison cars in front of him, and a smirk appeared on the corner of his mouth. Now he is screaming more, and he will go to Xisi Pailou for execution later, so he won't struggle too hard .

"You bunch of treacherous ministers, bewitched His Majesty to kill Zhongliang, you will not die well!!" At this moment, a black shadow came towards Xu Xianchun, and a stone hit Xu Xianchun's arm. In the crowd, a scholar roared with righteous indignation. , the people gathered on the left and right subconsciously retreated, with a bit of timidity between their brows.

"Grab it!"

Xu Xianchun frowned slightly, glanced at the scholar, and said solemnly: "If you dare to attack the Jin Yiwei, you will be taken to the imperial prison!!"
