A terrifying scream sounded again in the infamous imperial prison. There was a lot of yin energy here, and there seemed to be countless evil spirits. When the torture instruments were placed, Chen Yan was so scared that his eyes turned pale, and Wei Zaode directly peed his pants. As for Wang Zhixin, he was awakened by cold water three times.

The process does not require too much expression. The imperial prison or the "Bronze-in-law" is handled by the Beizhen Fu Office. It can be directly tortured and interrogated and acted. The Ministry of Justice, Dali Temple, and the Censorate Office have no right to interfere. In the prison, "water and fire do not enter, and the qi of the epidemic is flooded with the prison."

The criminal law of the imperial prison is extremely cruel. It has eighteen kinds of punishment, including finger-cutting, stick-cutting, skinning, tongue-breaking, finger-cutting, heart-punching, and pipa. History says: "The criminal law is self-evident, but those who are not keen on ancient rules are court sticks, east-west factories, Jinyiwei, and sanitary prisons. Those who are counted will kill people very miserably, but not as beautiful as the law."

The officials who were governed by Jinyi were punished by imperial edicts, but the judicial department was almost useless.

In the 13th year of Chongzhen, the Ganqing Palace in the Forbidden City.

Zhu Cilang handed over the arrested Chen Yan, Wei Zaode and Wang Zhixin's crimes. When Chongzhen saw it, he was immediately furious.

After reading it, Chongzhen only said one word: "Kill."

Chongzhen's methods were very decisive and never ruthless. As for Chen Yan and Wang Zhixin, it would be fine, these two dogs were killed. As for Wei Zaode, known as the Qingliu, Emperor Chongzhen never dreamed that this dog was going to cheat in the imperial examination.

"Father, the three officials investigated this time totaled 670,000 taels of silver. In addition, there were countless land, shops, etc., but the case of these three people was very involved. If we wanted to investigate thoroughly, there were probably no less than a thousand people. My son thought that the case should end here. After all, the situation in Liaodong was even worse than that in the capital. My son heard that the military pay had not been transferred for a long time, and the soldiers there were already very dissatisfied."

Emperor Chongzhen was shocked. He looked at Zhu Cixuan with great curiosity: "Son, tell me the truth, have anyone taught you these words?"

Zhu Cilang was in a dilemma. On the one hand, the Ming Dynasty was in danger. There was not much time left for them. What Zhu Cilang could do was to solve the current dilemma of the court's shortage of money as soon as possible. On the other hand, he was afraid that he would be too outstanding, which aroused the suspicion of the Emperor Chongzhen.

After all, I am just a twelve-year-old child, and I am also the son of Chongzhen. I know my son's character well. Suddenly one day you find that your son, who was originally obedient and honest, suddenly becomes extremely mature, steady, and even cold. This experience that is incompatible with his age makes Emperor Chongzhen stand up.

Is this his son? Emperor Chongzhen asked himself more than once. Although the case he handled this time was extremely beautiful, it can be said to be perfect. Sixty-seventy-seven thousand taels of silver were found in just three dog officials. According to Zhu Cixuan's opinion, it seems that it is not difficult to make up 10 million taels in three months.

Although Emperor Chongzhen was ecstatic, he could finally breathe a sigh of relief. The treasury finally didn't have to worry about silver for the time being, at least this year the court could take a breath. But looking at the strange and familiar son in front of him, Chongzhen always felt indescribable.

This is not like his own son, but more like a sage in his son's cloak. Or in other words, he is a rebellious son.

That's right, it seems more appropriate to rebel. Because Zhu Cixuan has been doing some rebellious or even disobedient things, and these things that cannot be solved by themselves and even cannot be solved seem to be underestimated when he comes to his son.

Facing Emperor Chongzhen's questioning, how else could Zhu Cixuan answer? He knelt on the ground and raised his head: "Father, do you want to hear the truth?"

Emperor Chongzhen looked at him and nodded: "Of course."

"My son, I dare to tell my father alone, and I hope my father can agree to my son and keep this secret. Even the mother cannot even tell me."

After hearing what his son said seriously, Chongzhen thought about it and said, "Okay, I promise you."

Zhu Cilang began to talk: "Father, son ministers don't actually sleep."

"What, what?" Emperor Chongzhen was a little confused. He was unable to get used to his son's communication methods for a while.

"As long as my son closes his eyes, he can see another world in his dream. There are Emperor Taizu, Emperor Chengzu, Emperor Xuanzong, Emperor Xiaozong and other ancestors. They have taught him a lot of things."

"Nonsense!" Emperor Chongzhen scolded loudly, and his back felt cold, and he couldn't help but look back. He was afraid that one of his ancestors would suddenly sacrifice their lives.

"Really, my son saw Emperor Taizu scolding Emperor Chengzu. Emperor Chengzu was so scared that he didn't dare to say a word. However, later Emperor Chengzu would quarrel with Emperor Taizu again. Emperor Chengzu said that he did not make less contributions to our Ming Dynasty than him."

When Zhu Yuanzhang died, he passed the throne to Emperor Jianwen Zhu Yunwen. King Yan Zhu Di rebelled and broke through Nanjing City and became the emperor himself. The temple name was Chengzu. Zhu Cilang said that he saw Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di quarreling in his dream, and he said it very well.

Chongzhen couldn't help but feel suspicious, and he felt a little confident in his heart: "However, what?"

Since he had already started talking nonsense, then just continue to pull it off: "My sons and ministers will persuade him at this time, but Emperor Taizu became even more angry. He scolded his filial sons and grandchildren, saying that Emperor Shizong only knew how to cultivate immortals, which made the people live in poverty. He scolded Emperor Yingzong for losing all the face of the Ming Dynasty, and even called Emperor Shenzong a lazy person, scolding, and scolding the late emperor as a carpenter."

Zhu Cilang spoke softer and softer because he found that Chongzhen's face became increasingly ugly.

In fact, Chongzhen was so scared that Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang was a person who was trembling when he lifted it. After a while, Chongzhen asked dryly: "Yes, did you say anything about me?"

Looking at Chongzhen's appearance, he seemed to believe it. Zhu Cixuan beat the snake and followed the stick and continued to quarrel: "Okay, it seems like he was scolding a little."

Chongzhen was shocked and cold sweat emerged from his forehead. Emperor Taizu scolded him, proving that he was not doing well enough. As well, the imperial tombs were excavated by bandits, and Emperor Taizu was no longer angry and had any ghosts.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Cilang just said, "Emperor Taizu told Erchen, you, your father is good at everything, and some places are very similar to Taizu's old man. But Father, you are too impatient, don't be suspicious all day long. You have to trust the people around you, especially your relatives. Also, Emperor Taizu said you are very diligent, and he likes this very much. Don't, I won't say anything else. Maybe Emperor Taizu looked at Erchen's face, so I won't say much about you."
