Jin Yiwei, Beizhen Fusi, Imperial Prison.

It was a notorious place that was in charge of cases appointed by the emperor, and could interrogate, execute, and execute criminals on its own without going through the Criminal Department.

In the Ming Dynasty, for more than 200 years, I don't know how many court officials died unjustly.

However, before the Apocalypse Dynasty, Jinyi Weibei Town Fusi Prison was only notorious, but not to the point of infamy, after all, the place dedicated to cleaning up ministers, cleaning up a few famous ministers, this murderous name came out.

Because, the emperor before the Apocalypse Dynasty, no matter what he said, the ministers he wanted to clean up would still take a look, and the executioners of the Beizhen Fusi didn't dare to go too far, and the ministers they cleaned up were basically still a complete human form.

It's different when it comes to the Apocalypse Dynasty, anyway, the Emperor of the Apocalypse doesn't care about anything, everything is handed over to Wei Zhongxian to do, Wei Zhongxian, who has lost his supervision, that's called a madness, whether it is the court or the people, as long as someone offends him with words, he will be arrested and imprisoned immediately, skinning, cutting his tongue, cutting meat, deboning, extremely cruel, at that time, the people in the capital didn't dare to speak when they met on the road, they could only use their eyebrows to convey their meaning!

After Wei Zhongxian brutalized the six gentlemen of Donglin, Jinyi Weibei Town Fusi Edict Prison really became notorious, because when the bones of the six gentlemen were thrown out of Beizhen Fusi Edict Prison, it was just a few pieces of rags wrapped in a few skeleton shelves!

So far, Jinyi Weibei Town Fu Si Edict Prison has become a magic cave for Ming officials and people to hear the color change, the people of the time said: "That is, under the suppression, the soul flies to the soup fire, tragic and unspeakable, and it is the joy of heaven to send it to the law department." ”

This means that as long as you can be transferred from the edict prison to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, it will be the same as heaven, can the prison of the Ministry of Punishment be heaven? You can imagine how terrible it is in this prison!

However, Chongzhen's edict was obscure, because Cao Huachun, the governor of Dongchang, and Luo Yangxing, the commander of Jinyiwei, were not the kind of vicious characters of Wei Zhongxian, although Chongzhen was a little ruthless, but he would not be like Wei Zhongxian who would raise a prison at every turn, and kill the courtiers like killing chickens.

Zhang Bin stood at the door of the edict prison, looked at the gloomy and terrifying cell inside, and then walked in without saying a word.

The cell head of the edict prison in front nodded and led the way, and behind him was a team of guards led by Zhang Bin himself, holding the handle of the knife, majestic and high-spirited, the jailer saw that he had to quickly dodge aside, and the court official who could walk sideways in the edict prison was probably Zhang Bin.

Zhang Bin still didn't say anything when he entered the edict, he seemed to be thinking about a problem, so that the cell boss and the jailer didn't dare to speak, and there was no sound in the entire edict except for footsteps.

Zhang Bin was thinking about Yuan Chonghuan's problem at this time, this legendary figure was finally about to appear in front of him.

He couldn't understand how Yuan Chonghuan, such a great hero, could end up being executed by Ling Chi, and many people in later generations even rumored that he really fornicated with Jiannu!

Now, he finally understands, what kind of fornication and Jiannu, that's all, he really wants to fornicate with Jiannu, Daming doesn't say that he is still not there, and the Guanningjin defense line is afraid that it will have been broken by Jiannu a long time ago.

In the sixth year of the Apocalypse, if it weren't for his disobedience and disobedience, Ningyuan, Jiannu would have arrived at Shanhaiguan long ago, how long can a pass be guarded, Jiannu is famous for liking to use siege vehicles to cover digging the city wall, no matter how high and big the city wall of Shanhaiguan is, it will be just such a section, if people come to dig every day, they can dig thousands of holes in less than a year, and they will keep a fart!

Later, in the seventh year of the Apocalypse, Ning Jin's great victory, even including the defense of the capital at this time, Yuan Chonghuan did not have to fornicate with Jiannu, as long as he let it go, Huang Taiji would have already taken down the Ningjin defense line, Shanhaiguan and even the capital of Daming.

Huang Taiji is estimated to be eager to cut him with a thousand knives, and he dares to fornicate with Jiannu!

Obviously, Chongzhen fell for Huang Taiji's counter-plot.

In fact, Huang Taiji's anti-intrigue is not very clever, Chongzhen can understand if he checks it casually, and he can understand that Yuan Chonghuan did not fornicate with Jiannu.

However, Huang Taiji was lucky, just in time for the eunuch party to want to create a big case, and the Jedi counterattacked and purged the Donglin party to prevent Chongzhen from continuing to dig deep into the eunuch party's reverse case.

Therefore, he didn't need to make a move later, and the remnants of the eunuch party in the court, under the leadership of Wang Yongguang, desperately attacked Yuan Chonghuan and Qian Longxi, and confirmed their crime of fornicating with slaves.

However, at this time, he met Zhang Bin, and this wishful thinking could not be done.

After Zhang Bin knew Wang Yongguang's intentions, he immediately became angry, and even wanted to use Jiannu's attack on the capital to engage in infighting, I can't kill you bastards!

He doesn't have the pedantry of the current scholars, and he will also play shameless tricks against shameless people to frame Yuan Chonghuan for fornicating with slaves, okay, I'll frame you for fornicating with slaves!

Framing this kind of thing is really simple, Zhang Bin doesn't even have to take action in person, as long as he arranges everything behind the scenes, and asks Huang Chenghao to "inform" Chongzhen and expose Wang Yongguang.

At this time, Luo Yangxing had already rushed to the Yangfang Hutong of Faxiangfang with Jinyiwei, which means that Wang Yongguang's fornication with Jiannu Chongzhen has already believed it, and he can't wash it off if he wants to!

In other words, Yuan Chonghuan is already fine, and it is estimated that soon, Chongzhen will release him.

Zhang Bin has been operating behind the scenes, and even interrogating Huang Chenghao was secretly done after changing his disguise, that is to say, no one knows that he did it.

He didn't want others to know, but Yuan Chonghuan had to know.

It's not that he wants to cooperate with the entuary, the main thing is that Yuan Chonghuan has to cooperate well with the affairs of Liaodong in the future, otherwise, it will not be so easy to clean up Jiannu.

The group walked for nearly a quarter of an hour in the dim light, passed through several prison doors, and finally came to the place where Yuan Chonghuan was being held.

Since there are basically no prisoners in the Imperial Prison at this time, Yuan Chonghuan lives in the most high-end room, the death row room!

This is all in the innermost part of the prison, the light is naturally even dimmer, standing outside the cell, there are only two guards on the table of the oil lamp, can not see what is going on inside the cell at all.

The cell boss asked the jailer to find another oil lamp, opened the cell door and was about to enter, but Zhang Bin suddenly said: "Okay, you all go out, I have something to say to Lord Yuan." ”

The cell boss hesitated, and finally beckoned and let the two jailers go out behind his ass, this master can't be provoked, the above has explained, as long as he doesn't take Yuan Chonghuan away, he doesn't care what he does!

Zhang Bin motioned for Zhang Pan to pick up the oil lamp on the table just now placed by the jailer, and then explained to the other guards: "You all go out and guard." ”

This means that these guards should watch the jailers and not let them eavesdrop, and when all the guards have gone out, Zhang Bin beckoned to Zhang Pan and took the lead to walk into the cell.

Zhang Pan took the lamp and shone it in, and Zhang Bin saw the situation inside clearly, good guy, this Yuan Chonghuan is sleeping there.

Because Zhang Bin asked Luo Yangxing to say hello, the people in this edict did not abuse him, and even gave him a big quilt, but this guy's heart is too wide, and he can still sleep!

He stepped forward and took a closer look, this Yuan Chonghuan had a lean and thin face, and a long beard, he looked polite, and he didn't know why he was so fierce when he faced an army of more than 100,000, 10,000 against more than 100,000, it is estimated that even a fierce general would have to tremble with fear.

Zhang Bin looked at it for a while, then stepped forward and said softly: "Lord Yuan, Lord Yuan, wake up." ”

After calling a few times, Yuan Chonghuan finally opened his eyes, he looked at Zhang Bin, wiped his eyes a little incredulously, and then confirmed it again, and then said, "Who are you, who are you?" ”

Zhang Bin smiled and said, "In Xiafuguang, the governor Zhang Bin, I came to visit Lord Yuan today. ”

Governor of Fukuhiro? I haven't heard of it, but it's also a feudal official, and it may be smaller than his official position as the original Jiliao Governor, but it's not that small.

It would be rude for such a feudal official to come to see him, so he hurriedly got up with great difficulty and straightened the quilt, probably wanting to invite Zhang Bin to sit down and talk.

Zhang Bin smiled and said, "If it's convenient for Lord Yuan, why don't we sit outside and talk." ”

Yuan Chonghuan was indeed inconvenient, he was wearing shackles, but it was not very difficult to walk a few steps outside the cell door.

He looked out curiously, and then raised his hand in a gesture of invitation.

This Governor of Fuguang has such a big face, he can actually take away all the jailers outside, this is not an ordinary prison but a Jinyi Guardian Prison!

Of course, Zhang Bin has a big face, and Jin Yiwei commanded Luo Yangxing to think that he relied on him to get to the top at this time.

Not only did he invite Yuan Chonghuan to come out and sit down, but when he came in, he also asked people to bring wine and food, and just now his guards didn't carry more than one food box, which was all under the table at this time.

Zhang Pan put down the oil lamp and took out the wine and food one by one, and Zhang Bin personally poured a glass for Yuan Chonghuan, raised his glass and said: "Yuan Dugong, I have been wronged, I will toast you." ”

Yuan Chonghuan didn't know what Zhang Bin was looking for him at this time, and after a glass of wine, he tried to ask: "Lord Zhang, the emperor asked you to supervise Ji Liao?" ”

In his opinion, at this time, he was afraid that the charge of fornicating with Jiannu was confirmed, and acquaintances did not dare to come to see him, this unknown Master Zhang came to see him, and also prepared wine and food, he should be ready to take over the position of Jiliao Governor, and specially came to him to learn about the situation in Liaodong.

Zhang Bin smiled and nodded: "The emperor has this meaning, but I don't think I can handle that position, so I didn't dare to follow." ”

Yuan Chonghuan thought to himself, the emperor asked you to go, can you not go if you don't want to go, he simply picked up the wine jug, poured a glass of wine for himself and Zhang Bin, and then raised his glass and said: "I borrow flowers to offer Buddha, a glass to Lord Zhang, congratulations to Lord Zhang on his high promotion to Jiliao Governor." ”

Zhang Bin shook his head, toasted with him, and then said with a smile: "I really didn't dare to go next, so the emperor sent me a governor of Fuguang." ”

Yuan Chonghuan was looking up to drink at this time, when he heard the words, he couldn't help shaking his hand, he spilled the wine, he wiped his mouth, and said in surprise: "You really didn't take the position of Jiliao Inspector?" ”

This means, why don't you go to be the Jiliao Governor, why did you come to me, we don't know each other.

Zhang Bin smiled and poured the wine full for the two, then raised his glass and said, "Come, Lord Yuan, I will toast you another glass and congratulate you on your grievances." ”

When Yuan Chonghuan heard this, he was so excited that he almost didn't hold the wine glass, he hurriedly drained the wine, and then asked: "Lord Zhang, what do you mean, the emperor believes that I didn't fornicate with Jiannu?" ”

Zhang Bin said mysteriously: "I don't know if the emperor believes it or not, but I have already found out, it is Huang Chenghao who really fornicated with Jiannu, and at this moment, he is explaining to the emperor." ”

Yuan Chonghuan was dumbfounded and said, "It's Huang Chenghao who fornicated with Jiannu!" No wonder he wanted to impeach me, but why did he run to explain to the emperor again? ”

This is naturally my credit, Zhang Bin proudly caught Huang Chenghao, forced him to confess honestly, and then asked him to go to the story of Wang Yongguang again.

After hearing this, Yuan Chonghuan's eyes immediately changed when he saw Zhang Bin, he poured wine for the two of them, and then raised his glass and said sincerely: "Don't thank you for your kindness, if you will be useful to me Yuan in the future, you just have to speak, Yuan will never give up!" ”

Zhang Bin finished drinking wine with him, and beckoned him to eat some food, then shook his head and said: "There is no need to give up, as long as you can cooperate with Mao Wenlong and clean up Jiannu together." ”

Yuan Chonghuan said with some disdain: "Mao Wenlong? ”

Zhang Bin smiled and continued to shake his head: "You wanted to kill Mao Wenlong at the beginning, right?" ”

Yuan Chonghuan was shocked again: "You, how do you know? ”

Zhang Bin shook his head and sighed: "You have all fallen for the evil of Huang Taiji, you think that Mao Wenlong fornicated with the slave and wasted food, so you want to kill Mao Wenlong, and the emperor thinks that you have fornicated with the slave, so he wants to kill you." You must know that what Huang Taiji wants to kill most is you and Mao Wenlong, as long as both of you are dead, Liaodong will be his world. ”

Yuan Chonghuan is not a stupid person, he just didn't expect Huang Taiji to be so good at playing tricks, he thought about it carefully and nodded slowly: "Yes, when I was in Liaodong, he often asked people to send letters over, saying that he wanted to return to the imperial court, and I even replied to him, but he kept hesitating and procrastinating. Now that he thinks about it, he didn't even think about returning to the imperial court, he was just preparing for a counterplot! ”

Zhang Bin couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, this Huang Taiji was really insidious, he couldn't help but admire: "This Huang Taiji is a good counter-plot, no wonder the emperor will believe that you have fornicated with Jiannu, it turns out that you have already fallen into his trap when you were in Liaodong." Mao Wenlong is the same, he knows that Mao Wenlong is a fraud, but he keeps communicating with Mao Wenlong, just to make you think that Mao Wenlong is really fornicating with slaves! ”

When Yuan Chonghuan heard this, he suddenly said: "So that's the case, it turns out that this is all a ghost made by Huang Taiji, at that time, I really thought that Mao Wenlong was discussing surrender with him!" Mao Wenlong came to explain to me, I still don't believe it, if he hadn't honestly wiped out the falsely reported food and salary himself, I might have killed him! ”

Zhang Bin said proudly: "I knew that your biggest headache was the problem of food, so I asked him to reduce the number of people to 30,000, and I was raising 70,000 people for him." ”

Yuan Chonghuan was shocked again: "You asked him to reduce the number of false reports, and you also helped him raise 70,000 people!" ”

Zhang Bin smiled and nodded: "Yes, if you kill him, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to save you this time, and there is no way to get away with killing the commander general." ”

Yuan Chonghuan solemnly arched his hand and said sincerely: "Master Zhang's life-saving grace Yuan remembers it in his heart." ”

Zhang Bin said in his heart: "It's good to remember my kindness, it seems that I didn't save a white-eyed wolf." ”

On the surface, he pretended to be generous and shook his head: "Let's not talk about this, let's talk about Liaodong." ”

Immediately afterwards, he explained in detail his plan to draw wages from the bottom of the kettle, what he meant, let Yuan Chonghuan not be in a hurry, work steadily, and advance slowly, and cooperate with Mao Wenlong to relocate the civilians in Liaodong first, and then slowly compress the living space of Jiannu, and slowly eliminate them.

In fact, they all know that to deal with the super mobile nomads like Jiannu, they have to rely on the city to take their time, and most of the previous dynasties have used the method of building city walls to deal with the nomads, so there will be so many city walls in the north, and the Great Wall is not so slowly built.

A natural disaster is coming, and the peasant rebel army is about to set the prairie on fire, is it too late to do so?

In fact, Zhang Bin didn't know if it was too late, but at this time, he had no better and faster way, so he could only seek stability first, and it was better to fight steadily than to advance lightly.
