"Your Majesty, Your Majesty." Looking at Zhu Cilang who was in deep thought, Qin Maosheng couldn't help but scream.

Zhu Cixuan came to his senses only then, and he stared at Qin Maosheng blankly. Qin Maosheng then continued, "Your Majesty, what should I do with Zhou Kui, the father-in-law Zhou Kui."

Zhu Cilang's eyes flashed with cold light: "According to the law, no matter who is involved, no matter who is involved, he must not abuse the law. Even the father-in-law must arrest what he should do according to the law of the Ming Dynasty."

Qin Maosheng couldn't help but feel nervous. The emperor meant that Zhou Kui, the father-in-law, was going to be finished.

If you handle cases according to the law, if you really handle cases according to the law, Zhou Kui will confiscate your family and destroy your clan. If you destroy your clan, it will be destroyed by the emperor.

But since the emperor's decree said so, Qin Maosheng could only bite the bullet and said, "Promise."

Zhu Cilang seemed to have made a great decision: "Don't treat Zhou Kui as my grandfather, nor do you think of him as my father-in-law. Do you understand what I mean?"

Qin Maosheng understood, but he could only pretend to be confused: "I am confused, please let Your Majesty make it clear."

Zhu Cilang looked at him with a strange look, and Qin Maosheng felt a little nervous. In the end, Zhu Cilang said lightly: "The father-in-law commits a crime, and his crime is higher than the first level. He is imprisoned in the imperial prison. No one can visit without my will. In addition, except for not being punished, he can also be punished."

Qin Maosheng shivered even more: "I understand."

It’s not that Qin Maosheng didn’t understand, he understood what the emperor meant from the beginning. But in order to protect himself, he could only bite the bullet and say that he was confused.

Why? The emperor's meaning is very obvious. This is to kill Zhou Kui, the emperor's biological grandfather and Empress Dowager Zhou's biological father.

If the Jinyiwei really handled the case according to the law and brought Zhou Kui to the imperial prison and served it. Or, in the end, the Zhou Mansion was raided. If the emperor repents in the future, or the Emperor settles the accounts after the autumn, then his commander of the Jinyiwei would really be the scapegoat.

In order to calm the anger of Empress Dowager Zhou and the Supreme Emperor, the emperor would probably take Qin Maosheng out to take the blame. At that time, Qin Maosheng's fate would inevitably be miserable.

Although the commander of the Jinyiwei is extremely powerful and the royal relatives are not taken seriously, if they provoke public anger and offend many people, their fate will not be better.

The "Gongwei Office" established by Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, was later renamed the "Personal Army Duwei Office", which governed the Yiluan Office and the Emperor's Etiquette and Guards. In the 15th year of Hongwu, the Little Army Duwei Office and Yiluan Office were abolished and the Jinyiwei was relocated.

Zhu Yuanzhang was the world obtained from the horse, and with his ability, he could do whatever he wanted. He would not encounter any obstacles if he wanted to establish an Embroidered Uniform Security Organization.

The establishment of the Jinyiwei was to serve the emperor simply. This organization, which was separated from the laws of the Ming Dynasty, only obeyed the emperor's orders.

The Jinyiwei can arrest anyone, including royal relatives, and conduct an unpublic interrogation. Especially the last sentence, it can be unpublic interrogation.

When they arrive at the imperial prison, they are in the territory of the Jinyiwei. They do whatever they want. If you say you are guilty, you are guilty.

Later, the power of the Jinyiwei gradually expanded, and even the matters under the responsibility of the Xianshi in the court were gradually handled by the Jinyiwei. The subordinates of the military guards were independent of the Jinyiwei, and their power was expanded and they could report to the emperor directly.

The Beizhen Fushi Department has its own imperial prison, which can be arrested, tortured, and executed by itself without going through ordinary judicial institutions. The court stick is to drag the ministers who angered the emperor out of the Meridian Gate and beat them. The person responsible for the execution was the Jinyiwei School Captain, and the person supervised the punishment was the eunuch of the Silijian. There were more than 500 court sticks in the Ming Dynasty, and more than 50 ministers killed the rod.

The first person to be the commander of the Jinyiwei was Mao Xiang. Mao Xiang committed a major case of involvement after Hu Weiyong's death, and in the end he was beheaded by Zhu Yuanzhang to calm the public's anger.

The second term was Jiang Yan. In history, the evidence of Lan Yu's rebellion was that he secretly reported to Zhu Yuanzhang. After the Lan Yu case, Zhu Yuanzhang was also sentenced to death.

The third term was Ji Gang during the reign of Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty. In the 13th year of Yongle, he placed Xie Jin, the president of the Yongle Encyclopedia, to death in the snow. In the 14th year of Yongle, he was killed for supporting the Han King to fight for the throne.

During the reign of Emperor Yingzong of the Ming Dynasty, the commanders of the Jinyiwei were Liu Mian and Xu Gong. After Wang Zhen took office, he promoted his confidant Ma Shun to serve as the commander of the Jinyiwei. After Emperor Yingzong of the Ming Dynasty was captured, he was beaten to death in the court as a "remnant" of the royal party.

During the Zhengde Dynasty, Shi Wenyi, the commander of the Jinyiwei, and Zhang Cai, surrounded Liu Jin, and Liu Jin was also executed after he fell.

The one who took over as commander was Qian Ning, who was later defeated by Emperor Wuzong close to Jiang Bin. Jiang Bin succeeded as Commander of the Jinyiwei and Emperor Wuzong also "entered and left the leopard room and lie up together", and was also in charge of the East Factory. After Emperor Wuzong's death, Jiang Bin was also killed.

Look, the commander of the Jinyiwei is a high-risk profession. The emperor killed many people, and they were all shameful cases. If he really saw the Guang, he would hand over the three judicial departments to handle the openly. The reason why he handed over to the Jinyiwei was mostly out of the emperor's selfish intentions.

The commander of the Jinyiwei wiped the emperor's butt and killed too many people, which would inevitably arouse the anger of the court officials. At this time, the emperor stood up and executed the commander of the Jinyiwei in order to calm the public's anger.

Qin Maosheng was very afraid that he would be implicated and ended up like this. If he killed his father-in-law Zhou Kui, the emperor would settle the score one day and cut off his head.

So when Zhu Cixuan asked him if he had understood, Qin Maosheng pretended to be confused. It was not until Zhu Cixuan explained to him that he could issue an edict to imprisonment and torture, that Qin Maosheng felt relieved.

This is what the emperor said, and you ask for punishment on the father-in-law. Even if you settle the accounts in the future, the minister will only follow the order.

However, Qin Maosheng did not dare to impose severe punishment on Zhou Kui after all, the emperor only said that he could use punishment. The difference between this period was huge if he could use punishment and he had to use punishment.

In other words, as long as the father-in-law Zhou Kui honestly explains, it is better not to use punishment if he can avoid punishment.

With the support of the emperor, Qin Maosheng finally got bold. After returning to the Beizhen Fushi, he began to handle the case.

"Go and call Qianhu Xia Dechao and Li Hao over here." After arriving at the Beizhen Fushi, Qin Maosheng immediately became thrilling. He was completely different from his previous appearance in the Qianqing Palace.

The general flag of the Jinyiwei did not dare to neglect and hurriedly took the order. Soon, Qianhu Xia Dechao and Li Hao followed, and the two bowed together: "Sir."

1 Qin Maosheng waved his hand, and the two of them understood the gods, and their subordinates quickly retreated. Xia Dechao and Li Hao walked over and closed the door, and then they stood down below and waited for instructions.
