Chapter 51: Begging for Death

Zhu Changwu was able to beat the thieves out of the Beijing Division, relying on this so-called new weapon in the future. It is with these that we can win more with less, and defeat the strong with the weak.

If this is not the case, I am afraid that even if Zhu Changwu is brave personally, it will be difficult to defeat the Dashun army.

The new weapon can be said to be Zhu Changwu's exclusive magic weapon, that is, although Chongzhen is curious, he has never thought of taking it for himself.

Without it, the right weapon must also be put in the hands of the right person to use, in order to exert its maximum power.

But this can be regarded as a weapon of Zhenguo, and now someone actually fights his idea, isn't this asking for the life of Da Ming?

Chongzhen's gaze fell on Zhang Jinyan's body, and he wanted to see what this person was up to.

Zhang Jinyan, who was kneeling there, faced Chongzhen's scrutinizing gaze, and pretended to be very calm at first, but slowly a cold sweat appeared on his head. Managing a loss is ultimately a loss, and you can't even look at it directly.

Zhang Jinyan was not his idea to come here.

Even if he learned that the Ming army had won a battle, he was still not optimistic about it. How many people are there in the Ming army, the Dashun army has millions of soldiers, its fierce generals are like clouds, and the brave generals are like rain, and it is not the declining Ming that can be stopped.

As the secretary of the military department, all he needs to do is to treat himself like a turtle, hiding his head in a hard body shell. After the Dashun army entered the city, he would show his head and find time to be loyal to Li Ziyuan, to see if he could regain power and stand at the top of the pyramid again.

That's why, on the square today, after learning that Chongzhen was coming, he hurriedly went home. He is still sick at home, so he can't meet Chongzhen and remind the other party of himself.

But he wanted to be a turtle, but Wang Zhixin took the initiative to find the door, saying that it was Li Zicheng's request to let him hold the new weapons of the Ming army in his hands.

The new weapon is like the teeth on the tiger, once the Ming army does not have this thing in its hands, it will definitely not be the opponent of the large number of people and the powerful Dashun army.

If it was just Wang Zhixin's request, Zhang Jinyan could ignore it, but if it was Li Zicheng's order, he would not dare not carry it out.

has decided to give up Da Ming, so if he offends Da Shun now, the world is big, and it is difficult for him to have a place for him.

Helplessly, Zhang Jinyan had no choice but to come, and made such a request to Chongzhen. It's not that he didn't think about it before he said these words, things are a little difficult, but it's not impossible, how to say that he is also the secretary of the military department, and such a thing was originally under his jurisdiction.

It is only natural to get power back now. The key point now is whether Chongzhen still trusts himself.

If you still trust, there is a door to this matter. If you don't trust it, you won't let yourself get involved in it.

Zhang Jinyan, who was kneeling there, didn't know at all that this so-called new weapon was not made by the Ming Dynasty at all, and had nothing to do with the Ministry of Industry and the Shenji Battalion, and was completely brought over by Zhu Changwu alone.

Even Chongzhen has only seen a weapon that he has never had, but now Zhang Jinyan is licking his face and asking for it, it is strange that there will be a good result.

Even Chongzhen was thinking, what does this person want such a weapon for?

The thieves came, and the secretary of your military department did not think about how to resist the enemy, but instead complained about being sick at home. Now that you've just won a battle, you've come up with the idea of a new weapon, which is clearly ill-intentioned.

Could it be that Zhang Jinyan has already taken refuge in the thieves, and this time he just wants to take away the new weapon

This idea appeared in Chongzhen's mind unconsciously, and it was really the scene of hitting the bell yesterday without a courtier showing up, which deeply stimulated him and made him instinctively begin to doubt all the courtiers.

Chongzhen wanted to ask Zhang Jinyan what he thought, but he knew that if he asked, the other party would not tell the truth. It would be better to give this person to someone who can tell him the truth. Thinking like this, he had an idea, so he opened his mouth and said to Wang Chengen on the side: "Wang Daban, did you hear this person's request?" ”

"Back to the words of the Long Live Lord, the minister heard it."

"Okay, that's it, you can take him to see Young Master Zhu." Chongzhen nodded his head and made a decision.

"Zhu... Young Master Zhu? Zhang Jinyan, who was kneeling on the ground, was stunned when he heard this. As far as he knew, there were no young masters in the court now, let alone a young master surnamed Zhu.

"Well, it's newly sealed by me, you can go, you'll know when you see someone." Chongzhen slowly finished saying these words, then closed his eyes, and looked like he didn't want to speak anymore.

"Zhang Shangshu, please get up, our family will take you to meet people. Now that the new weapon is in the hands of Young Master Zhu, you can ask him for it. Wang Chengen approached with a smile.

As an old minister who has followed Chongzhen for so many years, how can Wang Chengen not see through what his master thinks?

Chongzhen said that he was taking him to see Zhu Changwu, not Zhang Aiqing or Zhang Shangshu, which already showed his attitude, that is, he was completely disappointed in Zhang Jinyan.

The reason why he was sent to Zhu Changwu was also to interrogate him and clarify the matter.

A Shangshu that is about to be finished, of course, will not be put in Wang Chengen's eyes, so when he speaks, it is much more casual.

Zhang Jinyan didn't know these things, he hadn't heard of Zhu Changwu's name, he just heard from his subordinates that it was a general surnamed Zhu who led the Ming army to victory.

Under the big tomorrow, there are more people with the surname Zhu, and there are some talents among them, but there are more mediocre talents, and they will not be valued by Zhang Jinyan at all. Now that he saw that Wang Chengen was going to take him to the main master, he instinctively thought that this was Chongzhen's promise to him.

Thinking in his heart, this emperor was really confused, but his mouth was a claim, "Thank you to the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor." ”

After making a big salute, he got up, then looked at Wang Chengen and said with a smile: "I still want to trouble the prince." ”

"Zhang Shangshu is welcome, please." Wang Chengen was still squinting and smiling, but he had already sentenced this person to death in his heart. Dare to be disloyal to his master, such a person really has no need to live in this world.

It's still Jinyiwei Prison.

Wang Dehua was tied to a wooden stake, and Jinyiwei's executioners were preparing to "print" with a red-hot soldering iron.

The fiery red soldering iron fell under the chest, in exchange for Wang Dehua's screams.

As the factory director of the East Factory and the emperor's most trusted minister, Wang Dehua never thought that he would be tried one day. Especially the one who was tortured was Jinyiwei, who he had always looked down on.

I thought that in the past, the commander of the Jinyi Guard had to be respectful when he saw him, and as for the personnel under the Jinyi Guard, it was not even looked at by him. If he is in a bad mood, it is a casual finger, and he can ask for the head of a brocade guard.

Feng Shui took turns, and now it was his turn to become a prisoner, and all this happened to him as if he was in a dream.

It wasn't until the soldering iron really came to his skin and pressed it hard, bringing up a smell of barbecue-like mush, that Wang Dehua clearly knew that the sky had changed.

He has now become a fish on the chopping board, and he can do whatever he wants.

"Nope! You can't do this, our family is a factory minister, a factory official of the East Factory, unless Your Majesty has the will, no one can punish our family, can't! ”

After feeling the pain, Wang Dehua couldn't help but roar loudly at the moment when the soldering iron was taken away, wanting to put pressure on Jinyiwei.

On the chair a few steps away, Zhu Changwu was sitting here.

It was last night that he interrogated Cao Huachun and the others, and a day later, or at night, the person he is now interrogating has become Wang Dehua.

To say that this Wang Dehua is also yes, there are many things that Zhu Changwu needs to do, if he is not in a hurry to jump out, he really doesn't have time to find trouble with him. Even if the other party was smarter and escaped in time, most of Zhu Changwu would have forgotten the existence of this person.

It's so good to die, he actually jumped out, so I'm sorry, who will clean up if you don't clean up?

"I said you eunuch, I can say whatever I ask you, you cooperate well, so as not to be tortured, isn't it good for you, good for me, good for everyone? But you have to be hard-mouthed, you have to taste the methods here, why bother? Zhu Changwu opened his mouth and said lazily.

"Zhu Changwu, you are abusing lynching, you Jinyiwei do not have the right to torture our family. I advise you to let me go now, and I can think about not reporting this matter to the emperor. Otherwise, once the emperor knows, he won't let you go. ”

"Well, why are you doing this?" Zhu Changwu sighed again when he heard this.

He couldn't figure out why everyone who was tortured was said like this, as if Chongzhen would really come to save them.

But they didn't want to think about who betrayed their master first. I have done so many dirty things behind my back, and now I think that my master can come forward to save myself, but I really haven't woken up one by one, what do you think?

"Alright, continue to torture. But don't use a soldering iron, this thing makes a weird smell, it's too annoying. Such. Use a bamboo skewer to prick his fingers and toes, and after all the ties are finished, if you don't say it, then Ling Chi. By the way, the three tortured brothers yesterday are still there, let them come, it's still the same, people can't be killed before they don't explain, let them beg us to seek death. ”

Zhu Changwu spoke, and in his tone, he didn't take Wang Dehua's words seriously at all, let alone care about his identity at all.

"Yes, sir." The Jinyi guard who used the torture hurriedly agreed, and then began to change the guy, all of which saw Wang Dehua's eyes frightened, and his whole body trembled.

Listening to the meaning of Zhu Changwu's words, this is to kill yourself. How could he be so sure that he had a problem, wasn't he afraid that nothing would come out in the end, and he wouldn't be able to explain to Chongzhen?
