Summary of the previous chapter: The Zhang brothers and sisters appeared in person to commit perjury and falsely accused Ma Xiaoquan of fornicating with foreign enemies, and Wei Zhongxian and the Yanguan group also put pressure on the emperor to kill Ma Xiaoquan and his family, and the situation was very unfavorable

+++++++++++++++++++++++ Zhu Youxiao raised his eyebrows, raised his hand in high spirits, and suddenly said loudly: "Come on, bring me the guy who was tortured!" ”

When Lu Zhan heard this, he was ecstatic in his heart, it seems that the emperor is going to punish Ma Xiaoquan in front of everyone, cool, too cool.

"Yes!" Lu Zhan hurriedly beckoned the people from the Criminal Department to get the torture tools, and at the same time, he didn't forget to squat down, patted Ma Xiaoquan's face gently, and gloated: "Ma Xiaoquan, I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, you are going to die in front of everyone at such a young age, tsk, I still want to give you an invitation, this is not Lu Tian is about to get married, oh yes, the object of the marriage is the eldest lady of the Zhang family who abandoned you before - Zhang Jing, oh~~" Lu Zhan nodded at Zhang Jing's side, "People are here now, hey, I don't understand, Ma Xiaoquan, Miss Zhang is such a good girl, how can you make people hate you so much? Strange, really weird? ”

Ma Xiaoquan snorted coldly and said, "Lu Zhan, don't be too complacent, maybe there will be a plot reversal, and you old boy will become a prisoner." ”

"Haha, how is that possible?" Lu Zhan laughed, stood up, and asked, "Why hasn't the torture instrument come yet?" ”

At this moment, Li Qinghan suddenly rushed out, threw himself at Ma Xiaoquan's side, and shouted at Zhu Youxiao: "The emperor thinks twice, Ma Xiaoquan is loyal to the Ming Dynasty, there has never been the slightest opposite sex, the emperor is going to punish Ma Xiaoquan indiscriminately, where is the king's law?" ”

"Bold!" Wei Zhongxian stood up and scolded, "The emperor is the true dragon son of heaven and the ninety-five, you are a people's daughter, how dare you insult the emperor?" Don't you want to die? ”

Li Qing snorted coldly and said, "Folk girl? Wei Zhongxian, you are dizzy, I Li Qinghan is the widow of the first emperor, of course, the emperor has issued a holy decree to allow me to remarry and re-elect, moreover, my grandfather Li Chengliang, my father and my uncle Li Rusong and Li Rubai are all my heroes of the Ming Dynasty, in terms of identity, I Li Qinghan is much better than you, a eunuch! ”

"You!" Wei Zhongxian was so choked by Li Qinghan that he couldn't speak.

"Haha" The officials looked at Wei Zhongxian and laughed, although everyone temporarily stood on the same line about Ma Xiaoquan's matter, but this does not mean that they are a group of people, Wei Zhongxian is deflated, and the officials are still happy to see it.

"Hmph, my father-in-law doesn't care about you!" Wei Zhongxian suppressed his anger and said slowly.

Li Qing snorted coldly, raised his head and said to Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters: "Lord Wang, you know best what kind of person Ma Xiaoquan is, I hope the prince will tell the emperor." ”

Zhu Youzhen's expression looked very complicated, and in Li Qinghan's eyes, his expression seemed to be the kind of aggrievedness that wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh.

"Mmmm~ Okay, don't make trouble, go down!" Zhu Youzhen cleared his throat and said.

"Lord Wang?" Li Qinghan was stunned.

Zhu Youxiao spoke: "Okay, don't make trouble as a woman, well, stand aside, the torture instrument will come up immediately, you give me a good look, remember, you are not allowed to blindfold, otherwise I will not be polite to you!" ”

After Zhu Youxiao finished speaking, the two brocade guards stepped forward and grabbed Li Qinghan's arm left and right, preventing her from moving.

"The emperor, the emperor" Li Qinghan shouted unwillingly, but no matter how she shouted, it was useless, although her martial arts were no worse than the two brocade guards who held her, but the imperial power is the imperial power after all, in front of the emperor, if she resists too much, I am afraid that the Ma family will be implicated.

Li Qinghan gritted his teeth, and finally lowered his head unwillingly

Seeing this, the Zhang brothers and sisters glanced at each other, Zhang Yi stepped forward, knelt in front of Zhu Youxiao, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the grass people and Ma Xiaoquan have a common hatred, and the grass people want to see Ma Xiaoquan die!" ”

Zhang Jing also came up and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the same is true for the people's daughters!" ”

The corners of Zhu Youxiao's mouth suddenly lifted slightly, and he asked, "Do you two really want to?" ”

The two were stunned, glanced at each other, and turned their heads to look at Lu Zhan.

Lu Zhan stepped forward and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the old minister also wants to, absolutely wants!" ”

As soon as Lu Zhan spoke, the Zhang brothers and sisters also quickly expressed their attitude.

"Okay~" Zhu Youxiao suddenly laughed, turned his head to Zhu Youzhen and said, "Brother Huang, it seems that your investigation is right?" ”

Zhu Youzhen bowed and said: "The younger brother doesn't dare, this is the emperor's Mingjian." ”

"Hmm~ Someone, bring me the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone!" Zhu Youxiao suddenly ordered.

"Pen, ink, paper, inkstone?" As soon as the emperor spoke, everyone below discussed, what do you want pen, ink, paper, and inkstone for this good and dignified thing?

Wei Zhongxian pretended to be clever and gathered among the ministers, and whispered: "Why don't you understand, the emperor wants pen, ink, paper and inkstone, so that Ma Xiaoquan can write down the evidence of his crimes." ”

As soon as Wei Zhongxian reminded him, all the ministers nodded one after another.

"Yes, yes, the emperor is wise, the emperor is wise."

When the pen, ink and paper arrived, Zhu Youxiao nodded at Zhu Youzhen, who stepped forward, picked up the brush, and said to the ministers in the field: "Everyone, the emperor sees that everyone is enthusiastic, um, so you need everyone to write down your name, uh, it's not mandatory, but anyone who has a festival with Ma Xiaoquan or can't look down on it can be written." ”

As soon as Zhu Youzhen's voice fell, the ministers discussed again.

Some of the more spicy officials sensed that something was wrong, but they didn't open their mouths to mention it, these people rolled up their sleeves, shrunk their hands, neither signed nor spoke, and those "enthusiastic" guys, such as Wei Zhongxian's Zhang brothers and sisters, lifted the brush and wrote their names in a grand manner.

Since Wei Zhongxian was illiterate and couldn't write, he entrusted the Zhang brothers and sisters to help him write his name.

After the name was written, the torture instrument also came.

Lu Zhan was very happy, if it weren't for the presence of the emperor and King Xin, he would definitely jump up and immediately use the torture instrument on Ma Xiaoquan's body, making Ma Xiaoquan feel painful.

"Your Majesty, the torture instrument has arrived, please send it to the emperor!" Lu Zhan knelt on the ground, his face full of piety.

"Please send the emperor!" The officials who had just signed also knelt down one after another, while those who did not sign stood still and did not speak.

Zhang Yi and Zhang Jing's hands were held together, and immediately, they could see Ma Xiaoquan being tortured, and the brother and sister were very excited in their hearts.

"No, don't~~" Li Qinghan struggled like crazy, "Dog Emperor, if you dare to touch Ma Xiaoquan's hair, I will fight with you!" ”

Li Qinghan's sentence can be described as amazing, insulting the emperor on the spot, if the emperor is serious, it will be a capital crime.

Everyone was stunned, and then turned their eyes to Zhu Youxiao.

Zhu Youxiao didn't seem to be angry, as if Li Qinghan scolded him and he knew it in advance.

"Come on, give me a slap!" Wei Zhongxian commanded on his own.

A eunuch was about to step forward, and Zhu Youxiao suddenly burst out laughing.

Everyone was very surprised that the emperor could still laugh when he was scolded, and he laughed very exaggeratedly.

Indeed, Zhu Youxiao's smile at this moment is very exaggerated.
