After the beginning of winter, the temperature of Beijing plummets and becomes colder, but Beijing is very lively at this time.

In recent days, hundreds of anonymous posts have appeared on the streets of the capital, revealing that Qian Qianyi bribed Cao Huachun with 40,000 taels of silver to bring down Wen Tiren, the first assistant of the cabinet, and a person named Wang Fan went to the Criminal Department to surrender and give evidence of the matter.

Wen Tiren relied on the emperor's favor, and gave this secret performance to Chongzhen, and asked to dispose of Cao Huachun.

Seeing the post, Chongzhen will be suspicious, in his eyes, Cao Huachun is cautious and competent, it is impossible to do this kind of thing, he did not think about it, and handed Wen Tiren's secret music to Cao Huachun.

If Wen Tiren knew that His Majesty the Emperor was playing like this, he would not kill him and not do this secret music himself, just find someone to do it.

Cao Huachun was very panicked after seeing it, and immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Chongzhen to plead guilty, denying all the accusations against him, and then Mao recommended himself and asked to personally preside over the trial of Qian Qianyi's case.

Chongzhen actually agreed, it seems that in the heart of this emperor, the weight of Lord Cao is much heavier than that of Wen Ge.

Dongzhi Factory, founded in the Ming Dynasty Chengzu in Yongle 18 years (1420), by the emperor's cronies and eunuchs as the leader, and Jinyiwei together called "factory guard", Dongchang power in Jinyiwei, only responsible to the emperor, without the approval of the judicial organs, can be arbitrarily supervised to arrest the subjects.

In the Dongchang official office north of the imperial city of Dong'anmen, Zhu Cihong was observing this legendary spy agency with great interest.

The environment here is very bright, not as dark as in the later film and television, there is an ancestral hall on the west side of the government hall, and there is a "hundred generations of Liufang" archway in front of the hall, and the tablet of the previous East Factory Governor is enshrined here.

To Zhu Cihong's surprise, in the small hall next to the lobby of the Dongchang Mansion, there was actually a statue of Yue Fei! On the shadow wall in the hall, there is also a story engraved with the pancreatic case.

Zhu Cihong greeted a stall leader of the East Factory and asked, "Why do you want to worship Yue Wumu?" ”

According to the ideas of ordinary people, even if the statue is enshrined in Dongchang, it should be like Second Brother Guan, after all, Dongchang has the nature of the underworld, not only dealing with ministers, but also monitoring the people throughout the country.

The stall head of the East Factory replied respectfully: "Back to Your Highness, this is the previous overseer in order to remind us that there is no need to do anything in vain for the royal case, we should be like Yue Wumu, I would rather sacrifice myself than do my best to be loyal!" ”

Zhu Cihong nodded, this slogan is good, but for so many years, some of the things that Dongchang has done are a little unauthentic, and they have been scolded as dogs outside!

Jinyiwei has also won people, but he has no bad reputation among the people, because most of the people who take Jinyiwei are high-ranking officials, and they are not interested in ordinary people at all.

After Cao Huachun returned to Dongchang, he heard that the crown prince was coming, and hurriedly came to greet him, he smiled and said, "Why did Your Highness remember to come here?" ”

"This palace came to see Yue Wumu." Zhu Cihong said with a smile, and as he spoke, he took out a document from his cuff and handed it to Cao Huachun.

Cao Huachun took the document and took a closer look, his somewhat pale eyebrows couldn't help but shake a few times, and his face gradually turned into a pig's liver.

Zhu Cihong smiled slightly and said: "Cao Banban, we have known each other for many years, if there is a need, just greet Li Tingbiao, this palace really wants to see what kind of scene the joint case handling of the factory and the guard is!" ”

After speaking, Zhu Cihong left under the congratulations of the people in Dongchang.

"Someone!" Cao Huachun said in a low voice.

"Overseer!" Several executives from the East Factory quickly arrived.

Cao Huachun had a gloomy face, handed the Chinese book in his hand to the hand-punishing Qianhu, and said viciously: "Deal with all these things that eat inside and outside!" Our family wants to let them live worse than death, and let everyone know what will happen if they eat inside and outside the East Factory! ”

Dongchang was originally used as a tool for the emperor to supervise foreign ministers, but now it is infiltrated and bought by foreign ministers, what a shame! Cao Huachun was completely furious!

Zhu Cihong knew that Cao Huachun wanted to engage Wen Tiren, and for the sake of safety, Wen Tiren's eyes and ears in the East Factory must be removed, otherwise it will be very unfavorable to Cao Huachun.

Cao Huachun cleaned up the entire Dongchang with extremely bloody means, and then began to send down tasks, asking each stall to take the Dongchang fan to find the people who spread anonymous revelations in Beijing.

With the cooperation of Li Tingbiao's Jinyiwei intelligence network, after a search, a person named Chen Luqian was arrested in Dongchang.

In the early morning of the next day, Cao Huachun personally interrogated him in Dongchang Prison, but Chen Luqian and his son refused to admit their guilt.

The successive executioners of Dongchang were all transferred from Jinyiwei, and this Qianhu was Li Tingbiao's apprentice at the beginning, and he won the true inheritance of Li Tingbiao.

Under his command, Chen Luqian enjoyed a day of hanging and beating, four times with sticks, 20 strokes of punishment, 200 strokes of random sticks, and various punishments such as chili water, tiger chairs, cooking, and red embroidered shoes.

After so many big meals were used up, Chen Luqian was already dying, confessed all the time, asked what to answer, and quickly admitted that he was instructed by others, instigating Zhang Hanru to falsely accuse Qian Qianyi, Wang Fan framed Cao Huachun, and all kinds of affairs were handled by Wu Cheng.

Wen Tiren is a native of Wucheng, Zhejiang (now Huzhou), and Cao Huachun has already understood, and he asked Zhang Hanru to be dragged from the prison of the Criminal Department to the Dongchang prison, and he was directly shackled to death.

Subsequently, Dongchang concocted the same method against Wang Fan, who went to the Criminal Department to surrender, and went through the various punishments again, Wang Fan couldn't bear it that day, and wrote the same confession as Chen Luqian.

Cao Huachun took two confessions and immediately entered the palace to present Chongzhen's imperial view, Chongzhen did not believe the confession of the party Qian Qianyi, but had no doubt about the confession obtained by Cao Huachun.

Chongzhen was furious, he never thought that a dignified cabinet chief assistant would be able to do such a lack of virtue to frame and harm dissidents, and he would personally light a cannon!

When Chongzhen threw the confession on Wen Tiren's face, Wen Tiren fell into an ice cellar, he knew that he had lost, and his strong desire to survive made him make a final struggle.

In front of Chongzhen, Wen Tiren cried loudly, cried bitterly, cried to death, and began a performance full of emotion.

Chongzhen was originally very angry, but when he saw Wen Tiren, who was in his sixties and half of his body was in the ground, crying like this, his heart suddenly began to soften.

No matter what this old thing says, he has followed the cabinet chief assistant who has been working for several years, and he usually runs in quite well, and he is also very obedient, so he really can't bear to kill it like this.

Chongzhen was moved, and began to comfort a few words, seeing that the crying was good, and the effect was obvious, Wen Tiren put away his tears in a timely manner.

Crying, it is a technical job, the timing must be grasped properly, Yan Song and Wei Zhongxian both relied on this technology to turn the situation around and kill the opponent, Wen Tiren is deeply immersed in this technology.

Wang Chengen on the side felt disgusted when he saw this scene, he didn't expect that a person in his sixties would be shameless to such an extent, he was really shameless!

Under Chongzhen's comfort, Wen Tiren went home with a little peace of mind.
