At seven or eight o'clock in the evening the next day, the large flat in front of the Yongwang Mansion was covered with sergeants from the Western Army Governor's Mansion.

At the base of the palace carrying hall wall, two rows of soldiers with torches and sabers at their waists stood like nails.

Ma Jixiang, the eunuch guarding Xijing Town, and the three scapegoated eunuchs knelt on the ground, like sculptures, and they had been kneeling since six o'clock in the morning, and they hadn't even drunk saliva.

The scarred Ma Jixiang almost fainted a few times, but he still struggled with his spirits.

Through the open gate of the carrying hall, he could barely see two lines of torch-lit sergeants lining up to the palace gate, and there were faintly standing His Royal Highness King Yongwang and Lu Xiangkun, the Grand Governor of the Western Army's Governor's Mansion.

No one in the palace made a sound, not even the sound of the wind, and the flagpole hung down heavily, revealing a terrifying slaughter!

After a while, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves outside the palace, and then several men in black brocade robes walked into the palace quickly, knelt down on one knee in front of the carrier hall and said loudly: "Chen Qianlongwei Wang Zhen, return by order, meet my emperor!" ”

"Hidden Dragonguard!"

Ma Jixiang, who was originally in a poor mental state, changed his complexion suddenly, and subconsciously looked sideways at the man in black beside him.

Ma Jixiang never expected that the person next to him turned out to be the Hidden Dragon Guard!

As a high-level member of the East Factory, he naturally heard of Qianlong Wei, after all, this was cultivated by Wu Zhong, the governor of the East Factory, and it had a lot to do with the East Factory.

However, according to Ma Jixiang, didn't this mysterious organization be canceled after the pseudo-shun was destroyed? Why is there still now?

At this moment, Ma Jixiang's heart was beating violently and was about to fly out, and he really wanted to chat with this person named Wang Zhen and ask what was going on.

"Your Majesty has a decree, pass on the king's shock!"

Gonggong Shen's voice came from the carrier hall, which made Ma Jixiang anxious.

In the hall, several giant candles were burning, Zhu Cihong sat on the golden throne, and Yongwang Zhu Cizhi and the metropolitan governor Lu Xiangkun were carefully accompanied.

"Wang Zhen, what I told you yesterday, can you find out?"

"Back to Your Majesty, I have found it clear, the eunuch Ma Jixiang has been in Xijing for several years, not only embezzled public funds for road construction, but also all public funds for river governance!"

Wang Zhen held a document in both hands and said, "This is a secret report from Qianlong Wei of Weinan County, please take a look at it!" ”

Shen Mao walked down quickly, took the paperwork, and then handed it to Zhu Cihong.

Zhu Cihong shook open the paperwork, read it with a calm face, without the slightest anger, but said lightly: "Pass Ma Jixiang in!" ”

Ma Jixiang knelt for a day, his hair was scattered, his forehead was blue, and his physical strength was not good, but he trotted all the way and knelt into the carrier hall.

Behind him, there were three scapegoats, and because of nervousness, the three eunuchs stood unsteadily in front of the emperor with trembling legs as soon as they entered the door.

Ma Jixiang cleaned up his mood and started the performance, and said indignantly: "Emperor, these are these three scum who colluded with local officials to covet the road construction funds of the Mo Imperial Court!" The slave and maid ask Your Majesty to kill these three with a rod! ”

Zhu Cihong's eyes were like torches, he looked at the three eunuchs, and said, "Do you three have anything to say?" ”

The mood of the three eunuchs at this time was like a pet dog meeting a tiger, suffering from blood suppression, and almost paralyzing on the ground with their tails between their legs.

"The slave and the maid confessed...... The slave and maid confessed......" the three replied in unison.

"Good!"

Zhu Cihong nodded slightly, picked up the whip next to the golden throne, walked towards Ma Jixiang, threw the secret report of Qianlong Wei in front of him, and asked, "Then what do you say about this?" ”

Ma Jixiang quickly glanced at the paperwork, and the more he looked at it, the more pale his face became, and in the end, he directly shook the pot and said: "Emperor, these corrupt officials and corrupt officials and moths, embezzle and accumulate wealth, do all kinds of evil, corrupt the court discipline, and actually want to drag the slave maid into the water to discredit the royal family, and the slave and maid ask the emperor to see it!" ”

Zhu Cihong silently looked at Ma Jixiang who was kneeling in front of him, and suddenly shouted: "I'll check your mother's head!" ”

He raised the whip in his hand and slammed it at the old horse who was kneeling on the ground.

Zhu Cihong pumped more and more ruthlessly, and he whipped dozens of whips, and the skin on Ma Jixiang's body was opened, the flesh and bones were separated, the white bones were exposed, and the hall was full of blood.

The old horse couldn't hold back, screaming in pain on the spot, and spun around on the ground.

Everyone was shocked, the eunuchs shrunk their necks, and Yongwang Zhu Cizhi subconsciously retreated, obviously afraid of this bloody scene, only Wang Zhen and Lu Xiangkun were okay, looking at this scene with calm faces.

Finally, Zhu Cihong seemed to be tired and stopped moving, he shouted behind him: "Yongwang! Come and smoke him! ”

When Yongwang Zhu Cijiong, who was already scared, heard this, his body shook, and he subconsciously shrank back.

"Come here!" Zhu Cihong shouted.

King Yong didn't dare to resist the decree, so he had to carry the dragon robe, trot over with his head bowed like a girl, and said weakly: "Brother ...... Emperor"

Zhu Cihong stuffed the whip into his hand and said, "The prince of the Zhu family, there is no soft egg, and there is no incompetent person who is afraid of domestic slaves, do it!" ”

"Yes......"

King Yong held the whip and shook it hard, but the strength was touching.

If Ma Jixiang had encountered countless cold ice knives in the cold winter wax moon before, now, it was like a wicker Buddha face in spring, which made him feel a trace of warmth in the world.

Zhu Cihong kicked King Yong and shouted, "Didn't you eat? ”

"I've eaten a lot of ......," King Yong replied humorously.

Zhu Cihong kicked him in the ass again, and said, "I asked you to guard Xijing, but you let a slave sit big, you are a soft egg!" ”

Yongwang Dao is a very bachelor, and said bluntly: "Your Majesty's lesson is that your brother is a soft egg, or a soft egg who eats and waits for death, and is not suitable for the country's political affairs, brother, you will let me go back to Beijing to accompany my father, even if you abolish the title of prince of your brother and demote him to the king of the county, it will be ......."

With such a strong emperor brother, King Yong can't help it, he knows very well that throughout the ages, the stronger the emperor, the stronger the desire to control power.

God knows if Xijing does something famous, will this eldest brother, His Majesty the Emperor, find an opportunity to kill him.

For the sake of insurance, it's better to be less involved in political affairs, and it's good to be a free prince......

Zhu Cihong's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at this honest fourth brother again, this kid has something!

He snatched the whip from King Yong's hand and said, "One soft egg, stand down!" ”

Ma Jixiang, who was twitching on the ground, thought that the punishment was over, and just wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, but when he heard his master say this, he trembled with fright, and hurriedly stepped forward and hugged Zhu Cihong's thigh and begged for mercy.

"The slave and maid are guilty, and the emperor spares his life......"

Zhu Cihong kicked him in disgust, and shouted categorically: "Get out, you disloyal, unfilial, greedy, domineering, and bullying dog, what do I want you to do!" ”

Zhu Cihong used the whip again to violently inflict violence on Ma Jixiang and began a brutal whipping, which was even more ferocious than before.

Blood was flying, Ma Jixiang's painful feeling was cracked all over his body, and he lay on the ground and cried hideously: "Your Majesty, there are so many corrupt officials and villains in the world, can you kill them?" ”

"Smack!"

Another whip went down and slapped directly on Ma Jixiang's face, Zhu Cihong said fiercely: "Do you know that I can't finish killing? ”

This sentence is like a stimulant, which makes Zhu Cihong smoke more happily.

The one hundred and eighth whip fell, and Ma Jixiang, who was curled up in a ball, finally lost his breath and was whipped to death on the spot by Zhu Cihong.

Immediately afterwards, the three scapegoated eunuchs were also whipped to death by the Qianlong Guard in the Yongwang Mansion.
