Wanli Xinming

Chapter 412
There was a disconcerting silence in the study.The light emitted by the whale oil lamp is white and blazing—completely different from the warm dim yellow of the kerosene lamp, which Shen always only finds dazzling.

He swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "It seems that the government and the public said that His Majesty's 'early age is full of energy, and the sky is versatile' is true."

Shen Shixing looked at him like a fool, and said coldly, "Yes."

Shen Yiguan swallowed his saliva again: "Then about the case of exposing posts, does Xiangye have any clues?"

Shen Shixing said with a cold face: "I thought it was 'you' who did it before, but now it seems that they are just some people who fish in troubled waters. But after you make such a fuss, Jin Yiwei can be said to have nothing to do with it. If you can't explain what you are doing today Why did you come into my mansion late and stay until midnight? It is not impossible to say that we conspired."

Shen Yiguan got up, and then knelt down in front of Shen Shixing with a plop: "Please help Xiangye."

Shen Shixing sneered and said, "You and Zou Yuanbiao are plotting against me, why should I save you?"

Shen Yiguan's face was pale, and his head hit the ground with a loud bang.He whispered: "Because Xiangye, like us, wants to make things right."

The corner of Shen Shixing's mouth twitched and he snorted coldly.Shen Yiguan continued to say in a deep voice: "Today, from the second year of Wanli, nobles, eunuchs, and eunuchs were killed; gentry were killed when the law was reformed; civilian officials and landlords were killed when the land was measured; Burma and Jurchen were killed during the foreign expedition. , The heads of the Xiqiang people are rolling. This is not the "benevolent" master. Since Zulong, which Taiping emperor has seen so many people killed so many people?!"

After a pause, he said, "Master Xiang, would you rather not be afraid?"

Shen Shixing snorted again.As if raising an argument, he said: "Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty." Then he said: "Any monarch who wants to make a difference will kill many people. As you said, a dignified government and deputy minister has his own dignity. What am I afraid of? "

The study fell into silence again.Shen Shixing didn't look at Shen Yiguan who was kneeling on the ground, he refilled his teacup with some hot water from the thermos bottle, picked it up and took a sip.

As if he suddenly remembered something, he sighed and said: "Back then, Zhang Wenming, the old father of the Duke of En, was assassinated, and countless families in Jiangnan were destroyed for this. After the Prince of the County returned to Beijing, I once asked him about his opinion on this matter. Opinion. You know what he said?"

Shen Yiguan knelt down and asked hoarsely, "What did he say?"

"Zhilan is in power, but she has to hoe."

After Shen Shixing said these eight words, he stood up and walked to the window of the study, looking at the ink-like night in the courtyard, he said in a low voice: "It seems that the emperor is very satisfied with Liang Menglong. Therefore, there are some people who are in the way. Whether it's Ganoderma lucidum or a rotten stone, you have to scan it for him, and settle the previous score by the way."

Turning around again, he sneered and said, "Do you really think that your treacherous minds and selfish activities can hide Jin Yiwei?"

After Shen Yiguan heard this sentence, his almost completely decadent spirit seemed to be relieved from the beating. He got up and smiled wryly: "This is not a benevolent Lord. I have no choice but to go back and wait for the house to be executed."

Shen Shixing's face was still cold: "If you want to exterminate the clan, go out and say benevolent words. This time, I can pretend that I didn't hear it."

Seeing that Shen Shixing had no intention of reaching out to help, Shen Yiguan gritted his teeth and bowed, "Master Xiang cherishes it, and I have resigned." He turned around and walked out.

Shen Shixing glanced at the chiming clock again, nodded and said: "It's almost three o'clock at this time, if you go out and get caught by the night watchman, it will be inconvenient, just stay for one night."

Tears welled up in Shen Yiguan's eyes: "Thank you, Mr. Xiang!"

After the reform of the clan, in order to reflect the "friendship" between the royal clan, the Ministry of Internal Affairs designated an open space to the west of the Jitan in the capital, and built a small square city - this is imitated "Fengyang High Wall" clan prison.

The original intention of building a "clan prison" in Beijing was not to scare the clan, but to truly reflect the emperor's "friendship" with the clan. This is not irony.

Ming Taizu's ancestral precepts of the Ming Dynasty stipulated: "Although the heirs of later generations have serious crimes against the princes and clans of the vassals, they will not be punished. If they are serious, they will be reduced to common people, and if they are light, they will come to the court to tell them what to do." , or send officials to instruct them to regenerate themselves with misfortunes and blessings'".

Because the descendants of dragons and phoenixes are precious and cannot be locked up with ordinary prisoners, the establishment of "high walls" and "leisure houses" in various provinces really reflects the concern of successive emperors for the clan - there were very few clans in the imperial city before the clan reform , After the reform, there will be a lot, so it is necessary to build a prison for the Guan clan.

But judging from the practical effect, the clan heard about this "high wall", and all of them were frightened and frightened.Because since the beginning of the country, as long as those who are imprisoned are all sentenced to life imprisonment, that is, they will be confined until death.The only exception is the obvious unjust case of King Zheng in the Jiajing Dynasty—even so, Zhu Zaiyu, who is now the dean of Gewu, lived outside the high wall for 19 years before his father was rehabilitated.

Because of the obvious intimidation effect, after the capital wall was built, no clan moved in for a period of time.Based on the principle of not wasting, this place became the place to detain illegal high-ranking officials and nobles, and the arrested Xining Hou Song Shien was detained there.

Song Shien's ancestor was Song Sheng, a famous general who was born in the Red Turban Army, and the title had been handed down to him for eleven generations, and the Xining Marquis Mansion could be regarded as the top wealthy family in the capital.Song Shi'en became a nobleman in the third year of Longqing. As an adult, he acted as an agent for military affairs in the former military governor's mansion in Nanjing. Later, he was impeached and returned to Beijing for occupying land and keeping slaves.

Although he has served as a high-ranking military official, Song Shien has no heroic spirit, and he is nothing more than a dude.The so-called indulging in the beauty of silk tubes, sluggish muscles, and slow intelligence are talking about such nobles.

After breaking in from the wolf-like Jinyiwei of Guoan, he was arrested and questioned.Song Shien's soul has been withdrawn from his body, and has been floating in the air, watching his family fall into ruin.

His Hun'er saw his mother put on a first-grade crown dress, and wanted to enter the harem to intercede, but was blocked outside the palace wall.He saw his wife weeping in prison all day and was humiliated by the "accompanying wife" in prison; he saw his body being tortured in the high wall—the body was writhing and begging for mercy, and everything that violated human relations between his husband and wife They all said it.

However, Jin Yiwei does not want these.They repeatedly tortured and asked who else was eating at Taste Juice that day—and who leaked the outrageous writing on the wall.

"I'm just a piece of shit, really." Facing the cold eyes of Sian Li, the official from the Security Bureau, Song Shien burst into tears, "Really, Lord Xun! I really drank too much that day, because of that unlucky man Song Jiu'er, my family is ruined—if I know something, can I not tell you?" After speaking, he burst into tears again.

The coldness on Xing Oak's face did not decrease by half.He looked at Xininghou who was prostrate at his feet, and suddenly kicked him in the stomach, causing him to curl up and scream.

"Master Hou, our commander will bring your two boys to see you in a while. He is not as easy-talking as I am, an old man."

Song Shien opened his mouth wide, looking desperately at the devil-like Xing oak.His head, rusted by sensuality, finally turned, and Song Sheng's inherited blood also awakened a little.

"Master Xi! Tell me, who do you want me to bite?"

"Master Hou, what are you talking about. However, the Xun family, who retired from the country, has fallen into such a situation, Xiao Xi, I can't bear it. Let me help you think about it together, okay?"

　From August last year to now, the unit managed by Laomo has entered a critical stage, and this month has been extremely busy. I sincerely apologize for the bad experience I have brought to everyone.It is expected that the work will enter a new stage before the end of May this year.But at that time, whether there was time for more updates, Lao Mo was not sure.I can only apologize.
