Jinyi Wei edict prison.

Inside a dark, damp cell.

Tang Tingfeng, the prince of Dayan, was tied to an iron pillar, without fear, and his face was full of pride and disdain.

"Hmph, a group of dog minions of Jinyiwei, if you have the ability, you will kill this prince, come, do you dare?" As he spoke, Tang Tingfeng laughed unscrupulously.

Li Yuanfang, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, stood opposite Tang Tingfeng, his face calm.

"The eldest prince, my subordinates don't want to torture you."

"As long as you confess who are the families who secretly support your rebellion? And who are the officials who secretly supported your rebellion, I promise to give you a good time, how about it? ”

Hearing this, Tang Tingfeng smiled disdainfully.

spit directly on Li Yuanfang.

"Li Yuanfang, you are just a royal dog, who gave you the courage to talk to this prince like this? This prince is the prince of Dayan even if he is a prisoner, what do you dare to do to me? ”

Li Yuanfang took out a handkerchief and wiped the saliva off his body, his face was still calm, but his voice was extremely cold.

"Old Twelve, since the eldest prince does not cooperate, then you will teach the eldest prince the rules of our Jinyi Guard!"

As soon as the words fell, Li Hu, the leader of the 12th Jinyi Guard, immediately took a step forward, holding a barbed whip in his hand, and his face was full of sneers: "Commander, rest assured, the subordinates of the sect rules are the best!" ”

As he spoke, the whip in Li Hu's hand slapped Tang Tingfeng's chest.

Smack-

There was a crunch.

Tang Tingfeng's chest was already peeled open.

Tang snorted muffled when he heard the wind, and did not scream.

It hurt to the heart just now.

Li Hu looked at Tang Tingfeng with a smile: "The eldest prince is really a man, I have smeared a pain-increasing potion on this whip, and the pain caused by a whip is ten times that of an ordinary whip, I didn't expect the eldest prince to be able to hold on, it seems that my strength is small." ”

After speaking, Li Hu swung his whip again and slapped it Tang Tingfeng's body.

Smack-

Smack-

Smack-

After more than a dozen whips in a row, Tang Tingfeng had already opened his skin.

And Tang Tingfeng is indeed a man, he gritted his teeth and didn't scream.

Well?

Li Hu frowned, looked at the whip in his hand, and muttered to himself, "Could it be that he is immune to the Pain Enhancement Potion?" I've never been in this situation before, have you? ”

There are more than 200 kinds of punishments in Jinyiwei.

More than a dozen of them relied on drugs to torture prisoners.

Bian Que, the host of the thirteenth department of Jinyiwei, is a master of using poison, and these are all potions that he researched.

Not only are there potions that increase pain tenfold, but there are also potions that can make people feel numb without feeling pain, and they are temporarily invincible.

Li Hu turned his head to look at Li Yuanfang, a little helpless: "Commander, Tang Tingfeng's bones are too hard, do you want to continue?" ”

Li Yuanfang didn't speak, his face was gloomy and uncertain.

Although Tang Tingfeng rebelled and committed a capital crime.

Don't forget, Tang Tingfeng is a member of the royal family after all, and the brother of the current emperor.

Although they have great power, they are only royal slaves after all.

Kill the eldest prince, he didn't dare.

After pondering for a moment, Li Yuanfang sighed: "Go and find the old thirteen, treat Tang Tingfeng's injuries, don't let him die, and don't let him sleep!" ”

Li Hu immediately nodded and turned to leave.

Nothing was said all night, early the next morning.

Kyoto, somewhere newsstand.

A down-and-out showman holds a newspaper that just went out this morning.

Around him, thousands of Dayan people were standing, their faces full of curiosity.

"Zhang Xiucai, don't ink, hurry up and read it, Lao Tzu is waiting to listen."

"That's it, what are you poor and sour talent? If Lao Tzu wasn't illiterate, would he be able to use you? ”

"Hurry up, my shortbread is still waiting to be sold in Nancheng."

“……”

The people were talking, they couldn't read, or they wouldn't have waited here.

And Zhang Xiucai, who was standing on the table and wearing a long shirt with patches, cleared his throat: "It's quiet, this show is about to start." ”

"The emperor has said two things in the early dynasty, the first thing is to build a road for the entire Dayan, during which the ministers opposed it, and the emperor tried his best to raise the food and wages of craftsmen and migrant workers."

The second thing is that the emperor wrote a sentence to the people of the world.

"If you want to get rich, build roads first."

"More children, more trees."

"That's all, nothing else."

Hearing this, the people looked at each other, their faces full of emotion and joy.

"I didn't expect the emperor to have our people in his heart, I haven't lived in vain in my life, I won't sell crackers today, go home and have a baby with my mother-in-law, didn't the emperor say it, if you want to get rich, build roads first, have more children, and more trees!"

"Yes, yes, I will also go home to give birth, haha, the emperor's words make sense."

"I'm going to inquire about where to accept craftsmen, since the emperor said that the treatment of craftsmen will be improved, officials from all over the country will definitely not dare to slack off, after all, the emperor can really kill people."

……

Xuanzheng Palace.

The civil and military officials had already stood in two rows, and today they all tacitly did not speak, but just lowered their heads.

The nose looks at the mouth, and the mouth looks at the heart.

Especially everyone in West Lake raised their hearts to their throats.

After all, Tang Tingfeng was a member of their West Lake, and the Shen family and the Yang family who participated in the rebellion were also members of their West Lake.

With Tang Tingbai's character of retribution, how could he let them go of West Lake?

At this moment, the voice of the eunuch with a sharp voice came.

"The emperor drove to the !!"

Everyone took a deep breath and bowed.

"Ministers see the emperor, long live my emperor, long live!"

Tang Tingbai was dressed in a majestic dragon robe, and sat on the dragon chair with a calm voice: "Everyone, Aiqing, let's be flat." ”

Everyone stood up in unison.

The central general Zhuge Invincible took the lead in taking a step forward: "Your Majesty, the old minister...... Please! ”

Oh?

Tang Tingbai smiled: "The Central General has worked hard for my Dayan for decades, what is the crime?" ”

Zhuge Invincible sighed, his face full of helplessness: "Last night, the eldest prince rebelled with the Shen family and the Yang family, and these three people are all from my West Lake, the old minister is not strictly governed, and the old minister deserves to die!" ”

As he spoke, Zhuge Invincible knelt directly on his knees and kowtowed three times!

Tang Tingbai laughed again: "The Central General is old, and it is understandable that he is not strict in governance, if I remember correctly, you are sixty-five years old this year, right?" ”

Well?

Zhuge was invincible for a moment.

He is only fifty-nine years old this year, how can he become sixty-five in Tang Tingbai's mouth?

Without waiting for Zhuge Invincible to speak, Tang Tingbai had already said to himself: "The central general is old, and there is no need to lead troops to the expedition in the future to stay in the Dayan Imperial Court, give the young generals more opportunities, you don't have to work so hard when you are old, what do you say?" ”

This......

Hearing this, Zhuge Invincible's face changed.

The faces of the officials in West Lake are also not good-looking.

Don Tingbai: What does this mean?

Is it to completely seize Zhuge invincible military power?

A group of West Lake officials looked at each other, they had already thought before the early dynasty that Tang Tingbai would never give up.

It's just that I didn't expect this tyrant to be so ruthless.

"The emperor must not, the central general has worked hard for the country and the people, and it is really undeserved to end up like this after a lifetime of hard work, please take back your life."

"The old minister seconded the proposal, doesn't the emperor feel that he is too cold-blooded and ruthless?"

"Please ask the emperor to take back his fate!"

West Lake officials knelt on the ground.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Tang Tingbai smiled without any surprises.

He twisted his neck, making a crunch.

"Since all the adults don't agree, let the Central General continue to lead the troops."

What?

Everyone in West Lake looked at each other, a little surprised.

Because when did Don listen to the tyrant Bai speak so well?

But then, Tang listened to Bai's words, but they were frightened.

"Canglei Ministry, you are familiar with the laws of Dayan, the prince Tang listened to the wind and rebelled, and the Shen family and the Yang family also participated in the rebellion, what should you do according to the laws of Dayan?"

This......

Cang Lei's face was ugly, he had already guessed what Tang Tingbai wanted to do.

"Return to the emperor, according to the law of Dayan, the rebels will all punish the nine clans!"

Tang Tingbai smiled with satisfaction, he lazily leaned on the dragon chair and looked at Cang Lei of the Criminal Department: "Canglei Department, if I remember correctly, your third daughter married the traitor Tang Tingfeng the year before last, right?" ”

Cang Lei's face became even more ugly, and the cold sweat came down from his back.

"Yes...... Yes. ”

Tang Tingbai's smile became even brighter, and he laughed: "I want to know, according to the law of Dayan, all rebels will be punished by the Nine Clans, including your Canglei Department and the Cang family behind you?" ”

I......

Cang Lei's face was ugly and he didn't speak.

And Tang Tingbai ignored Cang Lei and looked at the other West Lake officials.

"As far as I know, the adults and the traitor Tang Tingfeng, as well as the Shen family and the Yang family, are more or less married, right? According to the law of Dayan, should I have beheaded you all? ”

In the end, Tang Tingbai's voice had completely cooled.

And the officials of West Lake subconsciously shrank their necks and did not dare to speak.

If Tang Tingbai, a tyrant, really wants to act according to the laws of Dayan, I am afraid that no one in the entire Dayan court will be able to leave alive, including him Tang Tingbai.

Zhuge Invincible sighed, he could see it.

Tang Tingbai, a tyrant, was determined to take away his military power.

And if he didn't know the current affairs and didn't hand over the military power, maybe Tang Tingbai would really kill these officials of Dayan.

And this tyrant doesn't seem to need any reason to kill.

And compared to the lives of the people in West Lake, what is the military power?

The military power is gone, and it is necessary to find a way to take it back in the future.

But if human life is gone, it is really gone.

After decades of mixing in officialdom, Zhuge Invincible knows the truth that he can stay in Qingshan without worrying about running out of firewood.

Thinking of this, Zhuge Invincible took a deep breath and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the old minister is willing to hand over his military power, stay in the court in the future, and continue to serve the court!" ”

Oh?

Tang Tingbai smiled with satisfaction, he nodded: "The law of the country is ruthless, although according to the law of Dayan, the rebels are punished by the nine clans, but I also understand that all Aiqing did not participate, and even took the initiative to lead troops to quell the rebellion, I am very pleased, this time I only deal with Tang Tingfeng and the Shen family and the Yang family who participated in the rebellion, what do you Aiqing think?" ”

Hearing this, everyone in West Lake smiled bitterly.

"The emperor is sage, and the ministers are meaningless!"

Although he said this, everyone felt in their hearts that Tang Tingbai, a tyrant, was really shameless.

Tang Tingbai leaned on the dragon chair and looked at Li Yuanfang, the commander of the Jinyi Guard: "Yuanfang, pass on my will, order the 300,000 Dayan troops stationed in Longyou Mansion to prepare, and we will attack Loulan Mansion again within a month, and at the same time tell Lu Bu that I look forward to the performance of his first army by training well." ”

Li Yuanfang nodded: "My subordinates understand!" ”

Li Yuanfang turned to leave.

Tang Tingbai looked at Prime Minister Su Zhen: "Prime Minister, the four people I wanted to see yesterday, are they here?" ”

Su Zhen nodded hurriedly: "Back to the emperor, they are here, just wait outside the palace!" ”

Tang Tingbai's face was calm, but he was a little excited in his heart.

After all, I was about to see Sima Yi and Baili Xuance and the mysterious Qin Hui.

Tang Tingbai cleared his throat: "Let them in!" ”
