Yang Ye was lucky, if it weren't for the fact that Zhao Prison was a single room, he would have to be beaten to death if he couldn't wait for the day of the Ming Dynasty's canonical execution.

As soon as these people think that their future is gone, they may still take their lives, and they all leave their cultivation, cultivation, sage books and so on behind.

Yang Ye is a brute!

But they forgot what they were looking at when they received the money.

People are always like this, when faced with catastrophes, they will almost always blame others for the first time, instead of looking for the reason from themselves.

Yang Ye doesn't care, he can't survive, but he won't be razed, although he has harmed more people, but it is nothing more than paying for his life.

It's not a rebellion, the family won't be implicated!

However, he finally wanted to relax.

Wang Zhi, the superintendent of the West Factory, has already copied the Yang family, and the death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime is inescapable!

"It's a little bit safe," the brocade-clothed hundred households waved their leather whips and snorted coldly: "Whoever is noisy again, let's try the master's whip first!" ”

"This official is the head of the Ministry of Rites, and the official position is ......"

"What about the official position?" All the households in brocade clothes are happy, "Please take a look at where this is?" ”

The head of the Ministry of Rites was stunned, and then speechless.

"This Lord of the Hundred Households, this official is a squire of the Criminal Department, and this official has a major case to report."

Jinyi Baihu laughed, and said to the head of the Ministry of Rites just now, "Look, this is the level, or someone can sit in the position of a waiter." ”

He stepped forward and asked, "What are you going to report?" ”

The waiter of the criminal department whispered: "The cabinet university scholar has also collected money. ”

"What you saw with your own eyes?" Hundreds of households are suspicious. gōΠb.ōγg

"If you don't believe me, you can ask Yang Ye."

Jinyi Wei Baihu asked the latter for confirmation, and the latter was also happy, he was going to die anyway, and it was not bad to have a cushion on his back.

The waiter of the criminal department hugged the fence and squeezed his head out, "Lord Baihu, don't forget that it was reported by this official!" ”

"Okay."

The hundred households in brocade smiled and hurriedly went.

Half an hour later, he hurried back, his face as black as the bottom of a pot.

He walked to the door of the prison where the chamberlain was kept, removed the key from his waist, and opened the chains.

The waiter was overjoyed: "Thank you little brother for your righteous action and treat the official ......"

"Who's your brother?" Baihu was furious, and his arm was slapped in the face.

"Smack!"

The waiter of the criminal department sat on the ground with a buttocks, and the palm prints on his white face rose visibly with the naked eye, and everyone else was stunned, but he just looked at the hundred households in brocade.

"You killed Lao Tzu, how can you accept bribes from a business scholar?" Baihu was furious, "When you are dying, you are still climbing and biting indiscriminately, see if Lao Tzu can't kill you!" ”

As he spoke, he shook the long whip in his hand vigorously.

“pia~！”

"Ah......h ”

"Dare to talk back?" Jinyi Baihu smiled coldly.

With another fierce whip, the waiter of the criminal department suddenly howled, and his old face was hideously twisted.

The hundred households in brocade clothes were still angry, whipping one whip after another, waving non-stop.

Soon, blood marks appeared on the body of the squire of the criminal department, and the screams echoed in Zhao Prison, making people's scalps tingle.

The case has been solved!

A traitor is a businessman.

But no one was happy, but they were heartbroken, and even people at the level of the squire were treated like this, so could they still live with low official positions?

"Still climbing and biting?" Baihu asked while fighting.

"Don't bite it, don't bite it...... where did the waiter of the criminal department suffer this crime, and he ...... immediately. Those who know the times are Junjie.

"It's louder, I can't hear it."

The squire of the criminal department roared angrily: "Don't bite anymore!" ”

Only then did Baihu stop the whip in his hand, turned his head to the outside and said, "Remember, the criminal confessed to biting others." ”

"Yes, sir."

Baihu smiled coldly and turned around: "This official asked you, in addition to these people now, are there other people who accept bribes?" ”

The squire of the criminal department snorted and gasped, and said hatefully: "And the top boss of this official......"

“pia、pia……”

The sound of the whip cracking the flesh on the human body sounded again, and the squire of the criminal department screamed again and again, and swallowed the following words.

After a short time, the waiter of the criminal department was already dying, and there was no good place in his body.

Others have cold hands and feet, and their hearts are even colder.

Where do they still not understand what is the meaning of God?

The emperor is in ...... Incise.

- Only traced down to the level of the squire!

But this also shows that their fate will not be much better, and it will be difficult to atone for their sins when they return to their hometowns, and they will have to be exiled at the least, and it is likely to be ...... Behead.

It is at this point that they really feel fear, the fear of death.

Even the tortured squire of the criminal department no longer had the luxury of landing smoothly, and began to self-examine and seek a glimmer of life.

"The steen used his power for personal gain, read the sage book in vain, and had the grace of the saint, and hoped that the hundred households would help the sinner to tell the emperor, and the sinner was willing to make meritorious service for the Ming Dynasty, and do his last effort."

These words are moving.

Stay in the green mountains, don't worry about no firewood!

As long as he saves his life, he can still operate in the future, his crimes are far inferior to Yang Ye, and he can't reach the level of raiding the house, so when the time comes, it's enough to do more.

His posture and psychological expectations have been reduced to a minimum.

However, the hundred households in brocade clothes did not buy it, and hummed: "Remember, the criminal confessed to the crime. ”

"Yes, sir."

The waiter felt a pang in his heart, made a final effort, and said, "Can the Lord of the Hundred Households come forward to ask?" ”

"No need." Baihu turned around and took the confession, "Draw a charge!" ”

"No, no......" The waiter of the criminal department shook his head frantically, terrified to the extreme.

Baihu sneered: "You are a person from the Criminal Department, you don't know the law of Da Ming, right?" Tell me yourself, if the sinner refuses to draw a confession, how should the judge deal with it? ”

"You, you're a trick!" The squire of the criminal department is not stupid, looking at this posture, it is not good to be exiled to the border, the emperor wants the rhythm of his head!

You can't draw a charge, you can't draw a charge!

"Wronged! I was wronged!! ”

He really felt that he was wronged, and he was also accepting bribes, why could those big people be safe and sound, but he had to pay for his life?

It wasn't just him who felt this way, but the other inmates in Zhao Prison as well.

Especially the head of the Ministry of Rites who only received two hundred taels, he felt that he had lost everything to his grandmother's house.

But, does it work?

Under the swing of that whip, it seemed to be of little use.

That's it, it's just the mildest punishment in Zhao's prison, and the hard dishes haven't been served yet.

~

The nave of the Royal Palace.

A table full of wine and delicacies, six ministries and nine secretaries, cabinet scholars, and deputy envoys of the left and right capitals of the Metropolitan Procuratorate...... Top ministers gather here.

Among them, some people accepted bribes, and some confiscated them, but all of them had gloomy faces and solemn expressions.

They are all human spirits, and they know the theme of this banquet very well.

The dishes with good color and flavor, and the wine that is hard to find are placed in front of you, but no one has the appetite.

Zhu Jianshen glanced at everyone playfully, and said with a smile: "You are all good ministers and virtuous ministers, but you have to take good care of yourself!" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone's already not good-looking faces became even more ugly.

Except for Wanan.

This guy is the emperor's hardcore little brother.

Shang Zhen was calm in his heart, but his face was no different from others, he was different from Wan An, he fell to the emperor, but ......

He wanted to earn the money standing up.

The atmosphere of the banquet was very depressing, making people breathless, and even many people felt that if Yongqing Hou was here, they might be a little better.

Li Qing hates it, but he always takes care of the overall situation.

Zhu Jianshen didn't seem to notice the cold scene, and said with a smile: "Pour wine for you Aiqing!" ”

The four small yellow doors waiting on the side immediately stepped forward and poured wine for the emperor first, and then poured wine for the bigwigs one by one.

Zhu Jianshen raised his glass and said: "You are all the ministers of the Ming Dynasty, please drink this cup." ”

Everyone hurriedly raised their glasses and said politely: "The emperor praises falsely, respect the emperor." ”

With a smile on his face, but his heart was uneasy.

They have seen this in the history books.

The history books of the Ming Dynasty.

Looking at the emperor's smiling black face, they seemed to see ...... The Taizu who beckoned to them.

Thinking of the officials who were killed in the Hongwu Dynasty......

No one can take it in stride.

The current emperor's authority is not as strong as that of Taizu, but it is enough to deal with them, and they understand what this glass of wine means.

But, had to drink.

Everyone drank it all.

Zhu Jianshen laughed heartily: "Hurry, pour wine!" ”

……

Side hall.

Li Qingyi tasted tea contentmently, Zhu Youjiao's short and thick brows were tightly locked, while flipping through the small book, writing and drawing, changing a piece of rice paper from time to time, always in self-denial.

Li Qing drank tea quietly, looking very patient.

Li Dongyang also came with a shy face today, Yongqinghou rarely came back, he also wanted to get clean, his original intention was to accompany the prince to listen to the class, but he didn't want today's Yongqinghou to cherish words like gold.

Just said "start the exam", and there was no more follow-up.

Li Dongyang was helpless, but Yongqinghou didn't drive people away, so he was cheeky and stayed.

Zhu Youzhu changed another piece of rice paper, re-undertook the topic and solved the problem, he was already a little irritable, just wrote a line, and began to flip through the small book,

Then, I can't put pen to paper.

In the end, he gave up on himself and said, "Mr. Li, I won't ......." ”

"The prince calmed down......" Li Dongyang wanted to appease him, but suddenly realized that the prince was not talking to him, and his face couldn't help but be hot.

Li Qing put down the teacup and said lightly: "Pick up the answer sheet on the ground and compare it to see which one is better." ”

He didn't even hit me...... Zhu Youzhu was ready to be beaten, and when he heard this, he immediately rejoiced, and hurriedly responded: "Okay, okay." ”

Zhu Youzhu relaxed, picked up the waste manuscripts on the ground, and began to compare them one by one.

After a while, he picked a tall one among the short ones and asked, "Do you want to see it sir?" ”

"Bring it."

Zhu Youzhu sighed secretly: I still can't run.

He stepped forward and handed over the scribbled paper.

"Give."

Li Qing took it, just glanced at it and put it aside, and asked, "Do you know what you did wrong?" ”

"I didn't pay attention to the class." Zhu Youzhu hung his head, looking like he was being beaten.

"No, you're careful, but you're too impatient, and you're too troubled." Li Qing frowned and said, "It's too easy for you to give up and stick to it, do you know that this is a big taboo?" ”

Zhu Youzhu said: "Students are cautious. ”

Li Qing frowned: "You call this cautious?" ”
