Ming Dynasty: The Rampant Crown Prince

Zhu Cihong glanced at Li Ruolian, and then ordered people to go back to the city to get the torture weapon, and galloped quickly, and in only two quarters of an hour, he had already rushed back.

In this process, the fifty or so soldiers, kneeling there trembling, barbed whips, just by hearing the name, they already knew how terrifying it was, but if they didn't speak, they would be whipped by the prince at most, but to be honest, they would be killed, even if their families might not be able to live, so most of them chose to be silent.

"Li Ruolian

, you can't kill people with a whip, right?" Zhu Cihong looked at the whip in his hand, there were dense barbs on it, he felt terrible when he looked at it, but this barb was very small, but it was very dense, don't whip people to death with this whip, his purpose is not to kill people directly, but to ask these people to tell the truth, of course, it is best to be in pain and not die.

"Returning to Your Highness, the barbs on this whip are very short and small, and at most they will tear their skin apart when they go down, and they will definitely not die, they are all suffering from flesh and skin.

Li Ruolian said with a smile, they have studied punishment very much, what punishment will kill people, what punishment will not kill people, they have all studied it.

Zhu Cihong waved his hand, and Li Ruoling arranged for it to go down, and the fifty brocade guards walked towards the fifty soldiers with a whip in their hands.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, we have been wronged

!" "Your Highness

!" "Wronged!" When

everyone saw Jinyiwei walking over, they were immediately frightened and shouted, to be honest, they were not afraid that it was fake, but it was also true that they did not dare to offend that group of generals.

This whip is those battalion commanders, and they are all trembling when they see it, not to mention those flat-headed people.

Xu Yunzhen's face turned pale, this prince is so ruthless, if someone can't bear it and says it, even if he confesses to him, he will not be responsible.

......Suddenly

, a ghost crying wolf howl sounded in the room, and I saw that the Jinyi guard had already begun to execute, whipping down one whip after another.

Suddenly, fifty people were lying on the ground and rolling, each whip carrying up a trace of flesh and blood, and blood was already covered the ground.

When Xu Yunzhen saw this tragic situation, he immediately gasped, immediately squinted his eyes, and suddenly didn't dare to look at it.

"I said, I said, stop fighting...... "

After a few whips, someone finally couldn't stand it.

"I am a laborer in the north of the city, and I was hired for 500 yuan. (One tael of silver = one thousand dollars)"

"Me too." A

group of people screamed and told what had happened, it turned out that they had been in service for another ten years, at least tens of thousands of people, who was looking for them, all of them were told 1510.

They even said that when they saw that some soldiers could not receive their salaries, they went to sell armor and good horses, and they all told them together.

Zhu Cihong waved his hand to signal Li Ruolian to stop, and then ordered to go down and arrest the officers and soldiers who were in charge of these people.

Travelogues, generals, garrisons, there are several.

The monthly salary of the Ming soldiers is two taels of silver, five hundred dollars for going out, and one or two five hundred dollars for money, tens of thousands of fake soldiers, ten years down, this is a terrifying number.

No wonder Zhu Chunchen's family copied out so much silver, so much fertile land, so much grain, it seems that most of it has been eaten by him.

After hearing these words, Xu Yunzhen's body suddenly shook, his face was bloodless, and he was frightened in his heart, I'm afraid it's over!"

Guo Ying, Xue Lian, Zhang Haiwen.

Zhu Cihong pointed to the three of them below, and shouted angrily: "You are the commanders of the three major battalions, what do you have to say?"

All three sighed, the facts were in front of them, and it was impossible to quibble.

Zhu Cihong sneered in his heart, pointed to the generals of the Shenji Battalion, and said in a cold voice: "Why are all the firearms in your Shenji Battalion

dumb?" "Hmph, isn't the firearm given by the War Bureau such a thing, dumb fire is a trivial matter, and exploding the chamber is a common thing." The

general snorted coldly, knelt on the ground and looked at Zhu Cihong indignantly.

"Li Ruolian, record his words

," Zhu Cihong was waiting for this sentence, then stood up and said loudly: "You wait for the occupation of the army to eat empty salaries, connive at the private sale of armaments by subordinates, and embezzle military salaries, which is the biggest evil disease. Turning

his head and looking at Xu Yunzhen again: "As the commander of the Beijing camp, turning a blind eye to the corrupt atmosphere of the Beijing camp, together with covering up corruption, is also an unforgivable crime!"

Xu Yunzhen heard this, his face immediately changed, and he hurriedly glanced at the generals below.

"Guo Ying, the general of the 3,000 battalion, Xue Lian, the general of the Shenji battalion, Zhang Haiwen, the general of the 5th military battalion, and Xu Yunzhen, the commander of the 5th military battalion, are senior officials of the Beijing battalion, and they took the lead in corruption

Zhu Cihong directly sentenced four people to death, Liwei wanted to find the biggest Li, he couldn't really kill all those generals, these people are not all waste, but they are in it, and they can't do it themselves.

Only by killing the biggest and taking the lead can we better stifle this trend and better control Jingying.

"Prince, you are framed, you have no evidence, you have no right to dispose of me!" Xu

Yunzhen's heart beat wildly, and he immediately shouted, and then his feet seemed to be windy, and he quickly ran down to the stage, and was with Guo Ying and the other three generals.

"Prince, although you are in charge of the country, I am the Marquis of Yangwu, I want to condemn the Marquis of Ben to death, take the holy decree of the saint, and just rely on the oral evidence of torture, it is not enough to believe it, you can at most treat me for the crime of lax management of the army!" Xue Lian, the Marquis of Yangwu

, changed his face, and immediately stood up and said.

"That's right, the prince, if you deal with it like this, I will not accept it!" Guo Ying and Zhang Haiwen also stood up and said loudly.

"Are you not convinced?" Zhu

Cihong narrowed his eyes and said: "This palace review, your three major battalions have been trained to be like this, occupying service, corruption, and still dissatisfied?" "

Your Highness, the guerrilla Dong Qi of the minister's right battalion testified against them, occupied the service, and was greedy for military salaries, causing my right battalion to be in arrears for five months!"

At this moment, one person stood up and testified against Xu Yunzhen and the four of them.

"The ministers also

testify!" At this time, two or three generals and garrisons stood up one after another to testify.

Zhu Cihong glanced at Dong Qi, he knew this person, in the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, the entire Beijing camp fled without a fight, only he died in the capital, and he can be regarded as a loyal martyr.

"What else do you have to say?"

Zhu Cihong pointed to Xue Lian, Xu Yunzhen and the other four.

"These people have a gap with us and the others, and they deliberately framed Shangguan!" Xue

Lian snorted coldly, the few of them had already discussed, embezzled together, advanced and retreated together, and now the prince obviously wants them to die, of course they can't be arrested.

"Your Highness, the military salaries, food, and military field account books in the Beijing Camp Yamen, as well as the account books of the hired temporary workers in the past ten years, have all been tortured out, and it is enough to kill twenty or thirty principals before someone can take them out.

At this time, Li Ruolian brought hundreds of brocade guards and brought up dozens of baskets, which were full of account books.

"Xu Yunzhen, it's not a pity to wait for death, take down the four of them, and correct the law on the spot!" Zhu

Cihong shouted, during the review, there was no one in the Jingying Yamen, and he had already ordered Jinyiwei to torture him, mainly because he was a bit like opening God's perspective, and he had already known these crimes in Jingying, so he did things with half the effort.

"Brothers, it's all dead anyway, it's the opposite of rushing out with me, wouldn't it be nice to occupy the mountain as the king, anyway, there are more thieves outside, not much of us!" Xue

Lian roared, in the past ten years, he has a lot of loyal people under him, and they have also collected a lot of money.

"Yes, since you want to kill us, it's the opposite!" Xu

Yunzhen, Guo Ying, Zhang Haiwen and others also gathered their loyal people and gathered together.

Suddenly, a group of people, full of thousands of people, were surrounded by three thousand brocade guards, and the swords and soldiers confronted each other!
