Chapter 52 Corrupt Confucianism Misleads the Country
No, he must grit his teeth and hold on, he wants to see who can't stand it first and who admits it first.
As long as he can get out alive this time, he will use his life to guarantee that he will definitely kill this Zhu Changwu, and use today's punishment on him a hundredfold and a thousandfold.
The torture continued, and the people of Jinyiwei were still very quick to do things, and after a while, Wang Dehua's screaming voice continued to be heard in the interrogation room.
"My lord, Wang Chengen's father-in-law is here." Just when Zhu Changwu was sitting on a chair watching the play, Sun Chuang came to the interrogation room and whispered when he came closer.
"What is he here for? So anxious? Zhu Changwu thought that Wang Chengen was here to ask the result, so he was a little upset.
Obviously, I gave all the power to myself, but I still have to ask about everything, isn't this just that talking doesn't count?
No, if that's the case, he still has to talk to Chongzhen. By the way, I still have to find the queen mother and say, at that time, she promised herself that she would persuade Chongzhen, but she couldn't ignore it. Zhu Changwu stood up, and then began to walk outside. This saw Wang Chengen who had already entered the dungeon.
"Little Enzi, why are you so anxious." As soon as they met, Zhu Changwu couldn't help but start complaining.
Wang Chengen was stunned by this, and then knew that Zhu Changwu had misunderstood him, so he turned his head and said: "Young Master Zhu, this time our family is on the order of His Majesty to give you someone here." ”
"Giving it away?" Zhu Changwu looked suspicious.
"This, Lord Zhang Jinyan, the secretary of the Ministry of War, has just gone to see His Majesty, saying that the new weapons in the Ming army should be placed under the unified management of the Ministry of War. Your Majesty thought about it, I should still ask your opinion on this matter, so our family sent someone here. ”
Wang Chengen quickly explained the cause of the incident, and then said without looking back: "Our family's mission has been completed, let's go first." ”
He really didn't want to stay here, the little Enzi on the left and the little Enzi on the right made him really upset.
But he didn't have the slightest solution, even the Long Live Lord seemed to have acquiesced to this title, what else could he say.
Of course, Wang Chengen is also a person with a sense of the overall situation, he knows very well that the current Ming Dynasty is inseparable from Zhu Changwu, so he can only admit what the other party says. Then all he can do is stay away and see out of sight.
Wang Chengen came quickly and went faster, and directly lit Zhang Jinyan here.
When there was no Wang Chengen, the two looked at each other, and then Zhu Changwu spoke, "Zhang Shangshu, if you want a new weapon, come and take a look first." ”
"Oh, good." Zhang Jinyan did not doubt it, so he followed Zhu Changwu in four directions and walked towards the interrogation room.
Originally, Zhang Jinyan thought that the new weapons were hidden here, but he was still thinking, no wonder he didn't know about these weapons before, it turned out to be in this kind of place, no wonder. But as he walked farther and farther away, it wasn't until he entered the interrogation room that he sensed something was wrong.
Especially when he entered the interior and saw that someone was being tied to a stake and tortured, he was even more confused.
Looking closely, when it was found that the person who was tortured was Wang Dehua, the factory prince of Dongchang, he was almost petrified in place.
This is a swollen situation, a swollen situation.
The factory father, the factory minister in Chongzhen's eyes, is an existence of absolute trust, but now he is being tortured. Hell, he's coming in, what's going to be done?
When Zhang Jinyan was still thinking about what was going on, Zhu Changwu was looking at him with a smile, and then said to Sun Chuang beside him: "Go, wait, isn't there an empty stake there?" Tie it up. ”
At the time of this meeting, Zhu Changwu had already recalled Zhang Jinyan.
In history, this is also a rebel. On March 19 of the year of Jiashen, it was yesterday, and it should have been after he broke into the inner city of Jingshi, he opened the Zhengyang Gate, causing the imperial city to fall.
In history, the evaluation of Zhang Jinyan is that Confucianism misleads the country. Zhu Changwu deeply believes in this point.
That is, the book of the military department, that is to know the military affairs, and even need to have fought on the battlefield and led soldiers. You need to know what the soldiers need. It would have been a mistake to have a scholar in this position now.
Isn't the example of Zhao Kuo on paper enough?
So what if you add a horse?
But even with these histories in the past, later emperors would still make such mistakes in employing people, and it is strange that he did not fail.
Thinking of who Zhang Jinyan was, Zhu Changwu naturally would not be polite, so he began to prepare to torture him.
Where has Zhang Jinyan seen this formation, he just thought that he was going to receive a new weapon, but now it's good, he has to be tortured, this is completely different, and even the result of not being able to hit with eight poles shocked him At the same time, his eyes were about to pop out, "No, what are you doing, I'm Zhang Jinyan, I'm the secretary of the Ministry of War, I'm the minister of the second rank of the dynasty, what do you want to do?" ”
"Lao Tzu is still from a product, less nonsense, tied up." Zhu Changwu said without a good face at the moment.
The prince and young master are indeed from the first grade, but that is just a title, and there is no real power. In real comparison, its influence and power are far inferior to that of a book.
But most of the level is most of the level, and seriously speaking, Zhu Changwu is not wrong to say this.
Zhang Jinyan still wants to struggle, but he has no power to restrain the chicken, how can he be the opponent of a big man like Sun Chuang? Soon, he was tied up, and then there was laughter around him.
"Zhang Shangshu, how do you feel. Hehe, you have to have some backbone, don't let the eunuchs you usually look down on be compared? ”
These words came from Wang Dehua's mouth.
Originally, he was the only one who was tied up here to be tortured, and he was a little lonely.
He even thought that no matter how well he performed, no one could see it, and it was somewhat meaningless.
Now that I have a companion, it is still a book, which immediately made Wang Dehua happy.
Someone is laughing at himself, in normal times, Zhang Jinyan will definitely speak out and fight back, but now, where can he take care of so much, at this moment he is scared and his soul is about to be lost. Especially when he saw Youjin Yiwei walking towards him with a bamboo skewer as long as a small arm and as thick as chopsticks, he shouted in horror, "Don't, don't come here, otherwise this official will report to the emperor and punish your crimes and serious crimes." ”
"Yes, it's another one who can't tell the difference."
For such words, Zhu Changwu found that he was already immune, so he simply closed his eyes slowly, and hummed a small song, which could be regarded as relaxing his tense nerves.
"Ahh
A cry of pain came from Zhang Jinyan's mouth.
It is said that ten fingers are connected to the heart, and when the bamboo skewer is pierced into the skin from under the fingernail, the pain cannot be described in words.
Think about it, usually we prick a small thorn in our hands, and it hurts to sweat, and the bamboo skewer is so long that it gets into the skin, you can imagine how many times the pain is.
"Ahh Don't torture, I say, I say, I say all. ”
Rotten Confucianism is rotten Confucianism after all, this is just the beginning, I can't stand it, and I surrender directly.
Zhang Jinyan was convinced so quickly, which was also beyond Zhu Changwu's expectations, he originally thought that this would be a tough guy, but now it seems that it is really far inferior to castration.
"Okay, since you want to say it, then give you a chance, say it." Zhu Changwu reopened his eyes, looked at Zhang Jinyan and asked intently.
"I said, it's just what you asked me to say." Zhang Jinyan was really scared, but he didn't know what the young man in front of him wanted.
"Tell me all the things you have committed since you were a child, remember, pull one piece, and if you look back, you will know that the word regret is easy to write and not to do." Zhu Changwu's voice carried a serious warning.
"Oh, yes." Zhang Jinyan nodded, very cooperative.
He really didn't expect that he just wanted to hand over the ownership of the new weapon to the Ministry of War, but it caused such a big disaster, and now he hated the king in his heart, and of course, he was afraid of the young man in front of him.
Who the hell is this?
said that he would be punished, but he didn't know that he was the secretary of the military department and the minister of the country.
It's just that when he thinks about it the other way, Wang Dehua's status on the side is not lower than himself, or even higher, but he is also tied up here and tortured, so he knows that it is impossible to get through the trick. He couldn't stand these torture tools, so he simply confessed honestly.
Even if you say you're going to die, at least you don't have to suffer these tortures, do you?
Zhang Jinyan began to explain, as Zhu Changwu asked, from the bad things he did when he was a child. It's like he went to peek at his aunt taking a bath at the age of seven, and it wasn't until the afternoon that the eunuch Wang Zhixin went to the mansion to find his own affairs, and he told everything in detail.
Zhang Jinyan didn't dare to hide it in the slightest, he was really scared, he didn't see that next to him, Wang Dehua, who was tied up, had already begun to suffer from Ling Chi now?
Every time the knife goes down, a piece of meat will be cut, like that, it will make his liver tremble when he sees it, so how dare he not tell the truth?
Zhang Jinyan recruited so quickly, and also confessed Wang Zhixin, which made Wang Dehua, who was being cut off, shocked. He didn't expect that this Zhang Jinyan was so timid and incompetent that he would really tell everything.
"The heart of the king, the richest eunuch?" At this moment, Zhu Changwu also remembered this person.
"Yes, sir." Sun Chuang hurriedly came up and said.
"Very well, go find this person right away and bring it here." Zhu Changwu said with joy on his face.
Since he is called the richest eunuch, needless to say, he must be very rich, and money is exactly what he needs now, of course, Han Xin ordered troops, the more the merrier.
