Chapter 166 Kill the chicken to warn the monkey
It is extremely rare for the Jinyiwei to take people outside the palace gate of the scattered court and go down to the court to face the civil and military officials.
Although they arrested a small household department manager Yang Zhiqi, it still caused a small riot.
When he saw that it was the Jinyiwei, he had also sent an order to arrest him. Yang Zhiqi, who was confused, immediately screamed in horror: "I am not guilty, what have I committed? Why should I arrest me?"
Although the shouting loudly, it was not righteous and unreasonable. The Jinyiwei Baihu sneered: "Mr. Yang, you will know if you have any guilt or not when you have been to the imperial prison. Why? Long lively issued an edict to arrest you, do you still have to ask for a reason? Lord. You are so arrogant. Lock it up for me and take it away!"
Kill the chicken to scare the monkey! This is not the case.
The Jinyiwei's slutty operation really scared the officials to the point of losing their souls. He really caught him as soon as he said he could catch him, without any signs.
Moreover, what also confused the officials was, what did Yang Zhiqi do?
Without saying a word, the Jinyiwei put the iron chains thick in her arms on Yang Zhi's head, took off his official hat, took off his court uniform, put the iron chains around her neck, and locked them with the iron lock, and was taken away by the Jinyiwei.
After this process, it was done in one go. It only scared the group of officials at the gate of the palace to the shock.
It seems that the Jinyiwei does such things on a daily basis. We are serious about arresting people. In fact, this was indeed intentional by Zhu Cixuan. He wanted to let the Jinyiwei arrest Yang Zhiqi in front of all civil and military officials during the scattering court.
In this way, Yang Zhiqi was arrested by these Jinyiwei and went to the imperial prison in front of everyone.
When they thought of the word "Zhi Zhuo", the officials couldn't help but shivered. What made them even more frightened was that they felt the terror of the Jinyiwei.
In the past, when the eunuch party was there, these officials were not even as good as a dog in front of eunuchs. At that time, Wei Zhongxian was really a master of the situation. These officials were either all those who were tempted by the enemy or pretended to be confused and wise and protected themselves.
Any few officials who dare to speak out for justice will either be dismissed from office by Wei Zhongxian or will be killed directly.
After the fall of the eunuch party, these officials completely let themselves go. Chongzhen was an emperor who was more likely to fool. If he wanted to be promoted quickly, he would be very proud.
Look at Yuan Chonghuan, Governor Yuan was stunned by his big mouth. What if he could pacify Liao in five years, and kill Mao Wenlong with a disagreement. Then, he was promoted all the way.
Unfortunately, Governor Yuan's bragging was a little too much, and finally shot himself in the foot. Chongzhen could no longer bear it, so he killed him.
No matter what, the officials still consciously let themselves go. They feel that they are not in charge and can do whatever they want.
Until now, they watched the Jinyiwei come to catch people with their own eyes, and everyone was afraid. Fear spread among the crowd, and they finally discovered what it means to drive away a wolf and invite a tiger.
Seeing Yang Zhiqi screaming endlessly, she disappeared in front of everyone's eyes, everyone was panicked.
Of course, the most panicked one was Zhu Chunchen, Duke Cheng. He finally realized the seriousness of the matter, so Zhu Chunchen walked to the Censor Wang Aoyong nervously and bowed deeply to him: "Mr. Wang, please ask Mr. Wang to go to my humble house to talk about it. I have something to ask Mr. Wang."
At this time, Zhu Chunchen realized that what Wang Aoyong said was probably true. The Emperor Wansui started to investigate the military battle situation, and was afraid that the real purpose of the drunken man was not the wine. The Emperor Wansui wanted to rectify the three camps.
Wang Aoyong was not polite, and immediately bowed and said, "It's easy to say, Duke Cheng, let's leave now."
Zhu Chunchen was overjoyed and said, "Oh" and hurriedly ordered the servants who had been waiting outside the palace gate for a long time: "Hurry, prepare the car quickly, please take the car with me and go back to the house!"
Zhu Chunchen was anxious, he had already felt it. Chongzhen was very likely to attack the three camps.
If that is true, his plan will be ahead. Not to mention anything else, just the matter of the three major camps being empty, once the court investigates it, he will have to be in trouble.
After getting on the carriage, there were no outsiders inside the carriage. Zhu Chunchen kept wiping sweat along the way, and then bowed to Wang Aoyong to the ground: "Sir Wang, help me!"
Wang Aoyong was startled and hurriedly helped him up: "What's the matter between Duke Cheng? You have ruined your subordinates. You must not be a subordinate. Please get up quickly."
Zhu Chunchen continued to wipe his sweat: "Mr. Wang, it's not to be hiding it. The defense of the capital is empty. No one in ten soldiers is left. If the Emperor Long Live is investigated, I will not be able to redeem it if I die!"
"Don't worry, Duke Cheng Guo, the matter is not as serious as you think."
Zhu Chunchen was stunned: "What, what does Lord Wang mean?"
Wang Aoyong was not in a hurry to answer, but smiled slightly, "Let's go to your mansion first, this place is not the place to speak."
Zhu Chunchen suddenly realized and slapped his forehead: "Yes, yes, yes, I'm confused. The coachman, go faster!"
How could Yang Zhiqi have thought that he was suddenly targeted by the Jinyiwei. It was the edict of the emperor himself. It was the edict of the emperor himself. It was the edict of the emperor who went to the edict of the emperor.
To put it bluntly, hell is more suitable. Where, when you enter, what is it that you cannot survive or die.
Along the way, before he could do anything, Yang Zhiqi urinated. His legs were soft and he couldn't walk any longer.
The hundred-hunter looked back at Yang Zhiqi who was limping on the ground like noodles, and sneered: "Why, Lord Yang, you're soft before you arrive yet?"
Yang Zhiqi's teeth trembled. No matter how the Jinyiwei around him pulled him, he couldn't get up. Even if he forced him to lift him up, he let go of his hand, Yang Zhiqi was so soft that he was on the ground.
This kind of thing seems common to the Jinyiwei. The Baihu waved his hand and said, "Put it!"
So, a few Jinyiwei took the corpse and several people went over to lift Yang Zhi. In this way, they carried him to the imperial prison all the way.
As soon as he arrived at the imperial prison, Yang Zhiqi heard a scream like a pig slaughtering inside. They were several eunuchs from the military battle, among which, the eunuch Jia Chuan, was in charge of the seal.
"Stop fighting, I'll do it, I'll do it all, please, kill me, kill me!"
"It's not me, it's not what I did, it's Duke Cheng. Duke Cheng gives me 30,000 taels of money every year, and all of this money is in my cellar in my servant's house."
"Give me your life, spare me your life~ahhhhhhhh!"
There were screams, unlike human voices. Every sound that reached Yang Zhiqiu's ears was shocked and his muscles were trembling all over his body, as if he was tortured.
