Zhu Yuan was also shocked when he heard that Wu Chaocui was beaten to death, he originally just wanted to use this person to establish his authority, how could he think that he could kill someone?

Zhu Yuan pulled the small flag of execution and asked, "What's the matter?" How did you kill it? ”

That Xiaoqi was also very aggrieved: "Lord Wang, my subordinates don't know either!" ”

"Don't you often play boards in the palace? How can you still control the force badly? ”

"Lord Wang, his subordinates are responsible for guarding the palace in the palace, and the court staff is in charge of Dongchang's colleagues, and the subordinates are really...

Zhu Yuan let out a long sigh when he heard that little flag say this, he originally thought that it was very simple to hit the board, in the past, he saw his father in the palace punish those who made mistakes, and it was okay to beat the board for fifty or sixty boards, how could he kill people now? In fact, Zhu Yuan didn't know that how to play boards is also a kind of technical work. If you want to do the skin and open the meat, you have to practice for several years, and you must wrap the bricks with pig skin at the beginning, and make sure that the pig skin is not broken and the bricks are broken in the first year. In the second year, the pigskin was broken and the bricks were nothing. Next, wrap the tofu with rice paper, and finally practice until the rice paper is broken and the tofu is fine, which is considered to be practiced.

The Jinyi guards in these palaces used to be soldiers, and the beating of boards in the army was a means of punishment, and ten boards could kill people, not to mention that Zhu Yuan ordered to beat twenty boards. In addition, that Wu Chaocui was unlucky, he had been preparing accounts for more than ten days, he had not gone home for more than ten days, and he worked late every night, plus Wu Chaocui was obese, what high blood pressure heart disease was some, and he could stand the board of the brocade guards, so he didn't hold on.

Zhu Yuan stepped forward to look at Wu Chaocui lying on the ground, and saw that this guy was bleeding from his mouth and nose and was out of breath, Zhu Yuan was very remorseful in his heart, he knew that this guy would not look for him if he didn't resist fighting. Zhu Yuan came out this time to follow Zhu Hongsan's holy decree, but there are also many kinds of Qin cha, the highest Qin cha is the one who has the right to make decisions on the spot, that is, the kind of Shangfang sword that later generations said, so that all local officials below the fourth rank can dispose of it casually.

However, this kind of Qincha has great power, and generally only the emperor's most trusted cronies can have this honor, such as Ma Jiyuan, who was stationed in Yangzhou back then. There is also a kind of qin cha that is ordered by the emperor to investigate one or several things, and such a qin cha does not have the right to dispose of officials, only the right to write to the emperor, that is, the right to make small reports. Unfortunately, Zhu Yuan is this kind of poor person who makes small reports.

Although this Wu Chaocui only has eight grades and is a small official who does not enter the stream, he is also an official recognized by the imperial court and a cadre in the system. Now you, Zhu Yuan, have beaten the court officials to death without the emperor's holy decree, which is a big deal.

Xue Tian, the prefect of Kaifeng Prefecture, originally didn't come out in the lobby, but suddenly heard that there was silence outside, and Wu Chaocui, who was originally wailing, didn't move, and Xue Tian hurriedly ran out to watch.

Xue Tian couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw that Wu Chaocui's mouth and nose were bleeding and he was dead. It's not that Xue Tian and Wu Chaocui have a grudge, but now that Wu Chaocui has been killed, this Qincha can't eat and walk around.

Xue Tian pointed to Wu Chaocui's corpse and asked, "King Yan, what's going on?" Why did you beat my Kaifeng Prefecture official to death for no reason? "Now Xue Tian doesn't have much respect for Zhu Yuan, and instead of calling Lord Qincha, he directly calls King Yan.

Zhu Yuan looked at the sky with his eyes and said: "No way, who knows that this guy is quite punishable, and it has nothing to do with this king!" ”

Xue Tian saw that Zhu Yuan was so unreasonable, and sneered: "Okay, King Yan, do you know who this Wu Chaocui is?" Although Wu Chaocui's level is not high, only from the eighth grade, but Wu Chaocui is the foreman of the factory run by His Majesty the Emperor in Wuchang, and he is also a relative of Lord Tie of Anqing, and now King Yan beat Wu Chaocui to death without any charge, does King Yan think about how to explain to the emperor? ”

Zhu Yuan was dumbfounded when he heard that this dead ghost Wu Chaocui still had such a big force, Zhu Hongsan started with a total of three waves of forces, needless to say civil officials, and there were also military generals such as Qian Yong and Zhao Guodong. This third wave is the craftsmen who followed Zhu Hongsan back then.

These craftsmen are headed by Anqing Bo Tie Niu, Hui Ning Bo Duan Hongyi, and Xiongwu Bo Sun Xing, all of whom were foremen in Zhu Hongsan's factory back then, and now they have all become the heroes of the rich and powerful side.

Especially Tie Niu, this guy has followed Zhu Hongsan since he was five or six years old, and has a good relationship with Qian Lide and Zhu Hongyi around Zhu Hongsan, the most important thing is that Tie Niu can enter the palace to meet Zhu Hongsan at any time, but this kind of preferential treatment is not even given to his son Zhu Yuan.

Zhu Yuan heard Xue Tian say this, and cold sweat fell on his head, he originally just wanted to catch a petty official and kill chickens and monkeys, but he didn't think that he could catch such a big fish casually. In fact, this is Zhu Yuan's thoughts, there were five or six thousand people who followed Zhu Hongsan south, except for more than 2,000 troops, the rest were craftsmen and their families, these people all wanted to show merit after the founding of the country, after all, they were all the basic plates of Emperor Zhu Hongsan, so the provinces were full of a large number of such meritorious groups.

Xue Tian saw Zhu Yuan stunned and knew in his heart that this little prince was scared, Xue Tian glanced at Tongzhi, Tongzhi saw the prefect's eyes and quickly knelt down on his knees and cried: "Wu Jingcheng, I didn't expect you to run for the emperor's country for decades, but now you are beaten to death by the emperor's son, brother is really sad!" ”

The other subordinate officials of Kaifeng Mansion were sad and shouted: "Lord Qincha, now that you can kill Wu Jingcheng, it is better to beat us to death!" After speaking, these subordinate officials surrounded them one after another and asked Zhu Yuan to give an explanation.

There were more than 100 subordinate officials in Kaifeng Mansion, and they were shouting and shouting for a while. Zhu Yuan was only a fifteen or sixteen child, and he had seen this kind of situation there, and stammered: "You guys... What do you do? You are so bold that you will not give this king a retreat? ”

Jin Yiwei Zhen Fu Zhang Cheng saw that something was going to happen, if something happened to Qin Mission, none of them, the accompanying Jin Yiwei, would be able to live. Zhang Cheng hurriedly stepped forward with a hundred people to protect Zhu Yuan, and then Zhang Cheng shouted to Xue Tian: "Lord Xue, if you don't impeach and suppress your subordinate officials, do you want to commit the great crime of rebellion?" ”

Xue Tian was reminded by Zhang Cheng before he remembered that now he was the governor of Kaifeng Mansion, and if he really let these guys beat Zhu Yuan, he would have to attach the main responsibility. Xue Tian, who was reminded by Zhang Cheng, reacted at this time, stood in front of the subordinate officials and shouted: "Okay, everyone calm down, there is no way for Wu Chaocui to die, we can only write to His Majesty the Emperor now, and let His Majesty the Emperor call the shots for us!" ”

With Xue Tian's reminder, those subordinate officials shouted: "Yes, what the prefect said is right, let's go to Lord Futai and let Lord Futai call the shots for us!" After saying that, these guys carried Wu Chaocui's body and turned around to find Governor Wu Peichang. The chief officials of the four prefectures and thirty counties under the jurisdiction of Kaifeng Prefecture saw this and followed the crowd out of the yamen.

Zhu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that these guys were gone, it was just those officials who were fighting by themselves in the morning, but they were going to beat themselves just now, Zhu Yuan said that he was not afraid was false.

Zhu Yuan saw them go out of the gate of the mansion, and hurriedly asked people to close the gate, and then hurried back to the second hall to ask his teacher Yu Chenglong what to do.

Yu Chenglong was just a talent at this time, and he was not the governor of Liangjiang who had rich grassroots work experience in later generations, and he was also very troublesome after hearing what happened in the lobby, and he didn't know what to do.

Yu Chenglong thought for a long time and said: "Lord, the political envoy Zhang Jiayu is not on good terms with the governor, he should stand with us, why don't you go and ask him?" ”

After being reminded by Yu Chenglong, Zhu Yuan remembered that there was an old fritter Zhang Jiayu here, and asked him what he should do!

Zhu Yuan came to the Kaifeng Mansion Prison, where all ordinary prisoners were imprisoned, and the felons were all imprisoned in the prison of the Imperial Inspector. But the Ming Dynasty prison cell and the civilized prison of later generations cannot be compared, Zhu Yuan was confused by a smell as soon as he arrived at the door.

Zhu Yuan hurriedly took a handkerchief to cover his mouth and nose, and followed Jin Yiwei into the prison, fortunately, Zhu Yuan still knew Zhang Jiayu's identity, and did not put him and ordinary prisoners together, but held him alone.

When Zhu Yuan came to the door of the cell and saw Zhang Jiayu sitting in the haystack with his eyes closed, Zhu Yuan hurriedly bowed and saluted: "Teacher, the student is polite here!" ”

Of course, Zhang Jiayu is not Zhu Yuan's teacher, but Zhang Jiayu used to be the Zuo Yude of Zhan Shifu and was the teacher of the crown prince Zhu Hai, so Zhu Yuan will be able to go to the teacher if he calls him.

Zhang Jiayu smiled slightly when he saw Zhu Yuan coming, and said: "Xiaguan doesn't dare to claim to be the teacher of Lord Qincha, Xiaguan doesn't have such a great knowledge!" ”

Zhu Yuan heard Zhang Jiayu say this and knew that this old guy was a little unhappy, too, Zhang Jiayu, as a high-ranking official of the third grade and a political envoy of a province, was arrested by Zhu Yuan and put in prison, and everyone had to have some ideas.

Zhu Yuan hurriedly bowed down and apologized: "The teacher said this, but it is a torment for the students, and the students can't help it, the teacher is in danger here in Henan, and the students made this decision to protect the teacher's safety!" ”

What Zhu Yuan said is good, but what kind of person is Zhang Jiayu, after the turmoil of the Shenwu Dynasty, can he not know Zhu Yuan's small means. Zhu Yuan wanted to grasp the first-hand materials, and at the same time was afraid that he would be suspected by Wu Peichang if he had too much contact with himself, so he found a reason to arrest himself in prison.

But Zhang Jiayu didn't say anything, but asked: "Today, Lord Qin sent to see the lower officials, don't you know what's going on?" ”

Zhu Yuan heard Zhang Jiayu ask this and quickly told him what happened in the lobby just now, and after he was done, he asked, "Teacher, what do you think students should do?" ”

Zhang Jiayu smiled and said: "Lord Qincha, if you came earlier to ask the lower official how to do it, the lower official may have some way, but now it's late, that Wu Chaocui's background is very hard, and the lower official has no way!" ”

Zhu Yuan heard that Zhang Jiayu's eyes couldn't grow, and he hurriedly asked, "Teacher, is there really no way?" ”

"Of course, now we can only wait for the emperor's handling opinion, but the lower officials estimate that Lord Qincha may have to eat and hang!"

Zhu Yuan didn't speak when he heard Zhang Jiayu say this, he came out this time to do something to show his father, he was no worse than those adult brothers, but how could he think that he would capsize in the gutter just after arriving in Henan, what should he do?
