little emperor of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 103 Pain
Yang Hu of the Jin Dynasty said: "There are unfavorable things in the world, and there are always seven or eight out of ten, so there must be interruptions. If the sky does not take it, wouldn't it be true that those who make things worse will hate them in the future!"

Zhu Changluo regrets it very much now, the regret of biting the navel!

But only a day later, the news that Ye He brought from the Ministry of Punishment was like a thunderbolt to Zhu Changluo.

When Zhu Changluo and Ye He rushed to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, seeing Wang Zhicai's flickering eyes, Zhu Changluo immediately concluded that there must be something strange about Zhou Heng's death.

"Say, how did he die?"

Wang Zhicai was dripping with cold sweat, and the little prince stared at him without saying a word, making him feel as if he was being forced onto a cliff, and the person on the opposite side just stretched out a finger, and he could dangle and fall down. And once it falls, it will be smashed to pieces, and there will be no redemption!
This person is Prince Rui Zhu Changluo.

There was a trace of coldness in the corner of his mouth, and the coldness in his eyes was like a blade out of its sheath.

Wang Zhicai's face was flushed red, beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, and he knelt down suddenly, "Your Highness, forgive me...you can't say it!"

Originally, Zhou Heng died under the torture of Wang Zhicai, but now it looks like this is not the case.

If you can't say it, you say it, and if you can't say it, it's the answer.

Zhu Changluo remained silent, and there was only one person in the world who could make Wang Zhicai so embarrassed that he dared not speak out.

"Take me to see his dead body."

"Yes, Your Highness, please come with me." Wang Zhicai seemed to be pardoned, at first he didn't think so, but when he stood up, he realized that his chest and back were soaked in sweat.

The cell was not in the slightest mess, Zhou Heng's face seemed to be covered with a sheet of paper, it was pale and pale, his eyes were half-opened and half-closed, he really couldn't see his death.

Ye He stepped forward and stretched out his hands to touch Zhou Heng's corpse, only to feel a slight collapse in his chest. When he opened his clothes, he saw a slight bruise on his chest. If you don't look closely, you won't notice it easily.

Seeing the faint smile at the corner of Zhu Changluo's mouth, Wang Zhicai was unconsciously startled, and even lowered his head, he didn't dare to look any more.

Zhu Changluo sneered and stared at him coldly: "My lord Wang is so interesting, living without fear of death?"

Wang Zhicai was silent, and after a while, he whispered in a tone that was almost crying: "So that the prince can learn that when our criminal department secretly executes prisoners, there is a method, just use a sixty-pound sandbag to press the chest, don't use it." It will suffocate to death in a moment."

Zhu Changluo was silent, "Go down, I'll stay here for a while."

Although I don't understand why this little prince is so crazy, but at this moment, he just wants to be able to escape from this young master's piercing gaze. Even if he is willing to stay in this cell for the rest of his life, Wang Zhicai won't do it. He didn't have any opinion, so he didn't even say a polite word, and ran out in a stumbling manner.

In the cell, you can hear your own heartbeat, only the crackling noise of the torches on the wall from time to time, in this quiet space, the eerie feeling is extremely terrifying

Looking at Zhou Heng who was dead, Zhu Changluo felt extremely depressed.

Thinking back to Zhou Heng hugging his own leg yesterday, based on the extremely bewitching eyes he looked at himself, he can almost 100% conclude that Zhou Heng must know something, and it is definitely not just playing tricks just to delay time.

Zhou Heng's death was not unjust. According to the seriousness of the crimes he was involved in this time, he was either beheaded or hanged, but why did he execute him in such a hurry?What is it for?
Zhu Changluo suddenly remembered a sentence, the living can never keep secrets, only the dead can keep secrets.

Ye He saw from the beginning to the end, although he didn't know why Zhu Changluo valued Zhou Heng's death so much, but based on his understanding of Zhu Changluo, his face was pale and his brows were knit into a ball at this moment, so it can be concluded that he must have encountered an extremely difficult situation. solution problem.

"I don't ask what happened, but I know that things in this world cannot be rushed. When Herzig City rescued my Ama, you gave me a word. I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry! This The sentence was given to me by you, and now I will give it to you again."

Looking back, I saw Ye He looking at him with firm and pure eyes, without any hesitation.

Zhu Changluo suddenly became enlightened, and secretly thought that he was really not making progress!Haste makes waste, some things cannot be rushed, there is no need to die Zhou Heng, there is no permanent secret in the world, the pot that should be uncovered will be uncovered sooner or later, now it is just not the time.

"Big Ye, you're right, I'm really impatient!"

Seeing Zhu Changluo's bright smile, knowing that his knot had been resolved, Ye He let go of his heart.

Now that a person is dead, it is useless to stay any longer.

Zhu Changluo turned his head and glanced at Zhou Heng's body, and had to admit that this man was a very powerful person. If his son Zhou Jingguan hadn't met him by chance, he would have wanted to get rid of this so-called panacea governor. It will take a lot of work.

A dignified governor of the province and a second-rank official ended up in a prison with violent corpses, which is not to say that it is not miserable.Although this is what he deserves, it is because of himself after all.

Seeing him dying, remembering the scene of him begging for his own leg before he died, he couldn't help sighing, reached out to cover his eyes, and whispered, "Go ahead, even though you haven't fulfilled your promise to me. Promise, but death is the most important thing, and I will guarantee that your children will not die. You know it well, so you should rest in peace."

Ye He was amused: "The eyelids are so wide open, you will close them if you say so?"

But things are so weird, when Zhu Changluo raised his hand, his angry eyes really closed tightly.

Ye He's eyes widened in shock, and he couldn't close his mouth. It's too evil, isn't it?

Zhu Changluo smiled triumphantly, and when he was pulling Ye He to leave, he suddenly found that Ye He's footsteps were not moving...

Following his line of sight, Zhou Heng was holding a hand tightly... and slowly opened it!
Write a word with blood on the palm of your hand!

Jade……

In the palace of Qianqing, it is as warm as spring.Wanli sat on the chair, looking at the memorial sent by the cabinet with great interest.

If Shen Shixing and Wang Xijue were here at this time, they would definitely not believe what they saw with their own eyes.

As we all know, since the tenth year of Wanli, Emperor Wanli has not read a memorial in a serious manner. Everything is handed over to the cabinet for approval and instructions. All the emperor has to do is to agree or disagree, just like today In this way, I have seen and approved it in person. If it is spread, the jaws of all the ministers will be shocked.

In the Shandong fraud case, more than 100 officials were implicated in the case, including almost all officials in Shandong province. According to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, all of these 100 people should be dragged out and executed.However, considering that the entanglement is too big and too wide, even the emperor Wanli, who has life and death in his hands, dare not do such a large-scale business.

Thirty bloody heads slipping outside the Meridian Gate are enough to make many people uneasy and thrilling.

Killing chickens to scare monkeys, the resulting effect is significant.The governors and officials of all provinces were all worried and tried their best to make up for the shortfall.Because the eldest brother don't say the second brother, this is the case in Shandong, and it is the same everywhere, no one's buttocks are clean!

The ethos of all the officials in the court is clean, the ministers are all immersed in their work, and the censor officials have all become sawed-off gourds. No one dares to stand out in the limelight. I am afraid that if the emperor is unhappy that day, the ghost knife will be killed. It's about to fall on my own head.

The past few days can be said to be the happiest and most comfortable few days since Wanli took office.

With all the mouths shining gold, a generation of foolish kings instantly became the reincarnation of Yao and Shun, and the rebirth of the holy king.

The emperor is also a human being, and everyone loves to hear good things.

As for the eternal wisdom that good medicine tastes bitter and good advice hurts ears, in Wanli's view, it is all nonsense. There is only one reason for others to scold you for being unpopular, and that is that what you say is not harsh enough, and it does not hit your pain point.

What made him even more happy was the news brought back by the internal supervisor sent to Shandong. The copper mine developed by Prince Rui Zhu Changluo in Hexiang Mountain was extremely productive. Although the silver mine was not as good as the copper mine, no matter how small a fly was, it was still a piece of meat. When life is tight, this money is like a timely rain, coming at just the right time.

Fame and fortune, joy from heaven.

When no one was paying attention, Wanli almost closed his mouth with a smile.

Good things come in pairs, today the Ministry of War came to report that Li Rusong, the Liaodong general, had come to the capital to ask for an audience.

Wanli was overjoyed and ordered to be summoned by Qianqing Palace.

It is said that everything is smooth, Li Rusong is the one who issued an edict to Beijing, needless to say, the purpose is to beat the Mongolian king of Shunyi, Chalik!

And Li Rusong did not come empty-handed, he brought Wanli a good news and a... good news.

The good news is that Li Chengliang won another great victory in the north and subdued the Hada tribe of the Haixi Jurchen. This is another brilliant victory after the Yehe tribe of the Haixi Jurchen surrendered their heads.This is undoubtedly a shot in the arm for Daming who is full of side troubles and depressed, and its significance is self-evident!

Wanli's dragon heart was overjoyed, and he took it for granted that once the news came out, the hat of the Holy Monarch that he had just put on had added a layer of gold powder.

But then there was another... good news, Li Rusong was uncharacteristically forthright, saying a sentence three or four times without being able to express it.Fortunately, Wanli was in a good mood, and after patiently listening to his explanation, Wanli almost became angry!

After Li Rusong awkwardly took out the engagement jade pendant left by Zhu Changluo, Wan Li's eyes straightened immediately!

Jade is really good jade, as delicate as suet, and as smooth as silk, even in the palace with countless rare treasures, it is the top-notch thing, even if you go to Zheng Guifei's palace, you can't find a few pieces of such flawless and beautiful jade .

After coming out of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Zhu Changluo and Ye He wandered the streets casually.

Suddenly remembered something, Ye He glanced at someone who was careless.

"Zhu Xiaojiu, there is one more thing, do you want to hear it?"

Ye He seldom speaks in such a strange tone. Zhu Changluo turned around strangely, and suddenly found a suspicious red color on someone's iceberg-like face. This is a great rarity...

Facing Zhu Changluo's good eyes staring intently, Ye He finally understood Wang Zhicai's pain, and couldn't help but angrily said: "What are you looking at, Li Qingqing is here!"

"Ah..." Zhu Changluo, who was planning to make fun of him with his eloquent teeth, was suddenly overwhelmed by the news. It turned out that the house was cloudy and rainy, and the boat was leaking and the wind was blowing his head, so his voice stuttered, "Why is she coming?"

Ye He held back his smile and turned his head, "How do I know, you won't ask her by yourself?"

This matter did not embarrass Zhu Changluo for long, as soon as he returned to the palace, he saw Huang Jin trotting over, and called from a long distance: "Prince Rui, the emperor is waiting for you at Qianqing Palace, please go there."

"Does father-in-law know what my father called me for?"

"Oh, this old slave can't say well." Huang Jinyuan's chubby face was full of smiles, "But the emperor's face doesn't seem to be angry, don't worry, little prince, you have made great achievements, the emperor is very happy I value you."

The Qianqing Palace was empty and deserted, and Wanli almost stroked the piece of jade left by Li Chengliang with trembling hands.

Without the mask of a tyrant, he is just an extremely ordinary mortal.

No matter how time flies, the cold and heat go on for years, those who can't forget will still never forget. The wound that was thought to be healed turned out to be just a thin layer of scab, which can't stand anyone's light touch. It was bloody again, and the pain penetrated into the bone marrow!
