Chapter 242 Strict interrogation, great torture!

  Xie Sheng, Zuo Yuqing and other ministers looked at Ye Chengxue in disbelief.

   Didn’t you, Ye Chengxue, agree to support us and invite the prince to study in the cabinet?

  Why do you want to obey the will of this tyrant to capture us today?

   Tian Qi also took a surprised look at Ye Chengxue.

  Now he doesn't really understand which side Ye Chengxue is from.

  Tian Qi only nodded: "Of course what I said just now is true!"

   "The minister obeys the order!"

  After speaking, Ye Chengxue drew out his sword, pointed at the Minister of Rites Xie Sheng and other ministers, and shouted to the guards outside the palace: "Take them down!"

  Thus, the imperial guards detained Xie Sheng and others.

  Xie Sheng came back to his senses after being detained, and cursed at Ye Chengxue: "Ye Chengxue, how can you suddenly betray the water! You are harming Zhongliang by doing this!"

  Zuo Yuqing also scolded: "Ye Chengxue! How dare you play with us! Why are you so despicable and shameless!"

  Xie Sheng had already shouted at Tianqi at this time: "Your Majesty, it is because of my loyalty to you that I suggested that the prince should leave the cabinet to study! Your Majesty, please learn from me!"

  Zuo Yuqing had no time to scold Ye Chengxue any more, and followed Chao Tianqi and shouted: "Your Majesty, forgive me! The ministers are just for the sake of the ancestral temple and the country, and were confused for a while, not really trying to deceive the king and seek rebellion. I beg your majesty to forgive me!"

Tianqi now understands that these courtiers who suddenly came to force him to let the crown prince study out of the pavilion, and asked Confucianism to teach the prince, and took the opportunity to control the prince's education rights, or directly said to control the prince, suddenly dared to do so. Because Ye Chengxue, who was in charge of the imperial guards, had been brought over before, and Yuan Chonghuan, Guan Ning soldiers behind him, and more than 100,000 Tartars were threatening outside, which made these courtiers dare to force themselves.

  However, Ye Chengxue suddenly didn't intend to stand by these courtiers at this time, and absolutely obeyed the emperor's will.

Therefore, Tian Qi suddenly gained a lot of confidence, and said to Xie Sheng and others: "If you simply invite the prince to study in the pavilion, I may only think that you are thinking about the sake of the ancestral temple and society, and will not blame you. But wait You shouldn't have threatened me after I had already refused, and even said that Ye Aiqing is already one of your people! Do you think I will believe you at this point?"

   As he spoke, Tian Qi ordered loudly: "Drag it on! Severe interrogation and torture! When Yuan Chonghuan's men arrive, cut them all in half in front of him!"

   "Follow the order!"

Xie Sheng was even more desperate after hearing this, and Ye Chengxue couldn't help shouting again: "Ye, I **** your ancestors! Why did you harm us like this? Uncle Zhang Guo has already been killed. Why are you still so loyal? What are you afraid of! "

   Tian Qi replied angrily for Ye Chengxue at this time: "Xie Sheng! Don't talk nonsense! Is there anything wrong with being loyal?!"

  Xie Sheng: "..."

Zuo Yuqing also yelled: "Your Majesty! Loyalty is right, but he, Ye Qianshi, agreed to ask His Majesty to let the prince study in the cabinet together, but now he has backtracked. Don't Your Majesty think that he is a treacherous little boy?" person?!"

At this time, Ye Chengxue argued: "Your Majesty! I agreed to persuade you to let the prince leave the cabinet to study with them, but I didn't say that I agreed to ask your majesty to ask who to teach the prince to study, and I didn't say that if your majesty does not agree to let the prince go out of the cabinet. Reading is what I should do. I know that the emperor's order is as big as the sky, and even if I have different opinions, I must strictly implement the emperor's order!"

  Tianqi nodded after listening and said: "You are right! I won't blame you! You are the one who can tell the difference."

With that said, Tian Qi looked at Xie Sheng and the others: "On the contrary, they, who are not well-versed in poetry and books, and who are not familiar with Confucian classics, have never paid attention to the emperor, and have always wanted to control me! Since they If you want to control me so much, why do you say that a country cannot be without a king, it is better to let the Ming Dynasty have no emperor!"

   "Your Majesty calm down!"

  Ye Chengxue hurriedly said something.

   Naturally, what Tianqi said was just angry words.

   After all, in this era, no one thinks that a country can live without an emperor.

  Xie Sheng was also being dragged down at this time, and continued to shout: "Your Majesty, since ancient times, the emperor should not be too smart. If you rule by bowing down, why should the ministers be like this, why should it be like this!"

  Tianqi ignored Xie Sheng's yelling, and only asked Wei Zhongxian: "Uncle Guo, was he really killed in Qingjiangpu?"

  Wei Zhongxian replied: "Dongchang hasn't received any definite news yet."

  Tian Qi said after hearing this: "There is a mole in your East Factory! Otherwise, it is impossible for you not to get the news."

  Wei Zhongxian was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly knelt down and said, "They are all incompetent slaves!"

  Tian Qi said to Ye Chengxue: "You go and investigate this matter, and leave it to Wei Zhongxian to handle it."

"yes!"

  Ye Chengxue responded.

   Tian Qi couldn't help muttering: "My brother-in-law is gone, what should I do now. There are many things and many people, only he knows how to do it and how to use it."

  Ye Chengxue opened his mouth to speak, but he endured it.

  Wei Zhongxian felt a chill down his back, thinking that if Uncle Guo really had something to do this time, he might not be able to escape being blamed by the emperor.

And Tianqi quickly suppressed his lost emotions, and ordered: "Return Yuan Chonghuan's memorial to the red, and tell him that it is not his business to worry about the prince going out of the pavilion to study. What he should worry about is why he A Liaodong governor just watched so many Tartars enter the customs, and even Jiannu! What does he, the Liaodong governor, do? Even if Jiannu spared Mongolia, doesn’t he have an eyeliner among the Mongols?! In addition, Let him explain why he appeared at the pass shortly after King Qin's edict was issued."

"yes!"

   Not long after, Yuan Chonghuan received an order from Tianqi.

  Boom!

  Yuan Chonghuan slapped down the critically acclaimed playbook on the case, with a sullen face, and remained silent for a while.

  Zu Dashou asked from the side: "Zhong Cheng, what did the court say?"

  Yuan Chonghuan said: "Today's son is really too smart to be underestimated! The answer is like a knife! Now I just don't know if he is being stubborn. Ye Chengxue, Dazong Bo Xie Shangshu and the others should also start admonishing this matter."

  Zu Dashou heard this and said: "Anyway, in the name of King Qin, go to the Walled City in the suburbs of Beijing and threaten Zhu Youxiao. As long as he doesn't hand over the crown prince to the Confucian officials, we will not go out of the Walled City to meet the enemy!"

  Zu Dashou and these Liao generals who had established themselves through the rise of Nurhachi no longer took Da Tianzi seriously in private, so they dared to call Tianqi in private.

  Yuan Chonghuan nodded: "Send someone to inform Yu Jiannu that they and the Mongols should not go too fast! Let us arrive at Zhazhai in the capital first, and then we will sing together for the emperor to watch."

"good!"

  Zu Dashou agreed.

   Not long after, Yuan Chonghuan led tens of thousands of Guanning soldiers to set up camp outside the Desheng Gate in the capital, and also sent people to contact the court, and once again made a memorial requesting Tianqi to let the crown prince come out of the cabinet to study.

  As a Liaodong governor, it seems ridiculous to pay attention to the prince's departure from the cabinet, but it is actually an important purpose of Yuan Chonghuan and others who want to prevent the Ming Dynasty's New Deal.

  But before his second memorial book arrived at the imperial court, the Imperial Guard Battalion 1 of the Imperial Guards in the city, led by Ye Chengxue, left the city on its own initiative.

  Yuan Chonghuan was very happy when he first learned that it was Ye Chengxue who led the guards out, so he walked over and asked Ye Chengxue: "How is it, Mr. Xie and the others, have they succeeded in admonishing them? Do you need Guan Ning's soldiers to admonish them?"

  Ye Chengxue glanced at him, pulled out his knife, and pointed at Yuan Chonghuan: "Yuan Zhongcheng, if you say such things again, I will treat you as a traitor!"

  Yuan Chonghuan was horrified, looked at Ye Chengxue, and thought: "What's going on, aren't you the one who conspired together to force His Majesty the Emperor to allow the Prince to study in the cabinet?"
