The same discussion is happening and brewing in the small circle of these officials, but no one is willing to stand up and intercede for these officials at this time. second, among them, although there are also talents, but more of them are the kind of speculators, and there are those who come to power by slipping their whiskers; Third, when Zhu Qizhen arrived, he said, although the common people did not see the bloody rain, but how could these officials not know the bloody battle that took place in the palace and the imperial city?

When the palace was banned, there were more than 1,000 dead, which also represented a resolute attitude of some of Zhu Qiyu's subordinates. In a word, almost all of them used a kind of gaze to look at the dying people, looking at Wang Wen and other officials who had been detained in the edict prison.

In the Jinyi Guardian Prison, in a relatively secluded corner, there were seven or eight cells, and in each cell, there were more or less two or three prisoners, although they were called prisoners, but there were no scars on their bodies.

And the cells are exceptionally clean and dry, not as dirty or bloody as one might expect from prisons. Even in some cells, desks and pens were prepared for these prisoners, but these prisoners were prisoners after all, and they really couldn't feel good when they were trapped in this famous Jinyi Guard's prison.

And these prisoners are the confidants and ministers of Zhu Qiyu who were arrested and detained by Jinyiwei at the behest of Zhu Qizhen. It was said that Mao Sheng, the governor of the city who opened the city gate for Zhu Qizhen and his entourage, was also in the cell.

"Your Majesty too, how can you be so good to these guys, look, this is like a prison, it's almost time to catch up with the good inn, and it is also stipulated that we must ensure two dishes and one soup for each meal, hmph, if you want me to say, it is better to feed those things to the dogs." Standing in the darkness at the end of this passage, Sun Jizong was squinting at the prisoners in the two rows of prisoners, and beside him, the person who said these words was the Qian Ning who came here today on the holy order of Zhu Qizhen to investigate the situation of these officials.

"Hehe, Lord Qian, the old man is the same as you think, it's a pity, Your Majesty has repeatedly explained, you must not neglect these prisoners, the old man has to be like this." Sun Jizong stroked his long beard under his chin, but he also felt the same way. According to Sun Jizong's meaning, although Zhu Qiyu can stay alive, it is better for these people not to stay.

Even if you don't subdue the world by bloody means like Emperor Taizong, at least, you have to kill chickens and monkeys to serve the world.

"By the way, what does Your Majesty want? Lord Qian was waiting by His Majesty's side, and I thought I should know more about His Majesty's thoughts. The two of them left the passage and walked slowly towards the outside of Jinyiwei's edict, continuing the topic.

-------------------- "Your Majesty can know what His Majesty thinks. Qian Ning replied with some distress. These days, the lower officials and others have also inquired about His Majesty's intentions, but His Majesty has been avoiding answering, only saying that let us do our own thing, Your Majesty has his own opinions. ”

"This ...... It's really unpredictable. Sun Jizong stroked his long beard, but he was also confused, and he couldn't figure out what Zhu Qizhen wanted to do. And there are really few people who really understand Zhu Qizhen's intentions. "In any case, these people will let them stay in prison for the time being, and when His Majesty's will comes, they will naturally be able to see the difference."

"Now that I have seen the edict and prison, these people are safe and sound, then the lower official should also go back to the palace to pay the decree, Lord Sun, the lower official will leave first." Qian Ning shook his head, it is impossible for him to come up with an answer to this kind of difficult nerve-wracking question, look at the sky, he should hurry back to the palace, so as not to wait for His Majesty to be in a hurry.

"This official is on official business, and it is inconvenient to send it far away, please ......" Sun Jizong said goodbye to Qian Ning and his party, tilted his head and thought about it, still couldn't understand what Zhu Qizhen, the nephew emperor, wanted to toss, so he could only smile bitterly and shook his head, and continued to go back to his yamen to deal with affairs.

Then, in the shortest possible time, all his henchmen and those who were arranged by Zhu Qizhen were inserted into the Jinyiwei system, although it cannot be said that they can be used in a short period of time, but Jinyiwei has been controlled by himself. Nowadays, there are still many things to do, Sun Jizong, who is nearly sixty years old, knows very well that he will not stay in this position for too long, no matter what, he will have to sell his life to His Majesty again. In this way, the future of Lao Sun's family will be brighter.

"Your Majesty has sent someone here to investigate us and others, and I don't know what Your Majesty wants to do with us." In the prison, in the cell where the officials were held, an official who looked up at the light outside the window turned his head and glanced at the companion beside him, who was burying his head in front of his desk, writing something one by one, and let out such a jail.

"Life and death are fate, precious in the sky, no matter how much you think about it, what can you do?" The man who was immersed in writing raised his head, but there was no trace of depression and despair on his cheeks, and his eyes were clear, and it was clearly Wang Wen, the secretary of the ministry and the second assistant of the cabinet.

I saw that he used his pen to follow the ink in the inkstone, and continued to practice calligraphy on the paper, while saying in a deep voice: "If Your Majesty kills us, you should say that in the Forbidden City, in the Qianqing Palace, you can kill us all, and then push it on those rebellious soldiers, or preach to the outside that we died for the martyrdom of King Yu, so who in the world can say anything about him?" ”

"Then Lord Wang, what do you mean, we shouldn't be able to die?" The official couldn't help but jump to his feet and asked with a hint of surprise.

Wang Wen's writing hand paused, and finally put the pen on the pen stand, moved his wrist, and said lightly: "Your Majesty detains the king in the palace of the king of Yu, and many guards and soldiers who are fighting with his own army are all detained in their respective military camps, and we are all detained here, and no one knows what Your Majesty wants to do." ”

"However, according to the old man's opinion, even if my surname is not guaranteed, I don't think it will harm my family. After all, today's son is not a fierce son like Emperor Taizong. Wang Wen picked up the tea that had been left cold on the table and drank it all. Hehe, the old man never imagined that the trend of the world would overturn in a blink of an eye. Your Majesty, if you are very speculative, you can speculate......"
