Chongzhen Chat Group

It was obvious from these words that the Ming court was definitely going to react and would even send an imperial envoy for this purpose. Ba Dengding felt happy after hearing this. He was glad that he was right to contact the group leader, and he quickly agreed.

After Emperor Chongzhen finished his instructions, he withdrew from the chat group, stood up, and said to Cao Huachun: "I am going to see Tang Shisun and lead the way!"

At this time, he had already made a calculation in his mind, and now it depends on Zhu Yujian's own intentions.

Cao Huachun was a little surprised when he heard Emperor Chongzhen's order, but he would not object and immediately accepted the order.

Zhu Yujian was an imperial prisoner and might be convicted of treason, so after being escorted to the capital, he was imprisoned in the Jinyiwei Prison.

Upon hearing that Cao Huachun and the emperor were heading to the imperial prison, Liu Xingzuo, the commander of the Jinyiwei, immediately dropped everything and hurried to pick them up.

Emperor Chongzhen didn't want to make a big fuss, so he ordered everyone else to wait outside, so he asked Liu Xingzuo to lead the way in person, and went to see Zhu Yujian's situation with his own eyes!

The Jinyiwei Prison generally holds imperial prisoners, so they cannot be ordinary people, but mostly high-ranking officials and the like. The environment in this prison was naturally not as dirty and messy as reflected in later movies and TV shows.

If ordinary officials entered the Jinyiwei Prison and were tortured, then this place would be hell. For people like Tang Shisun, who was allowed to read by the emperor, there was no possibility of interrogation, so he did not suffer much crime, except that he was not free.

Under the guidance of Liu Xingzuo, Emperor Chongzhen walked slowly outside a cell. Either there were no footsteps, or the movement was too small. When Emperor Chongzhen stood outside, the man inside did not react. He just turned his back to the door and was concentrating on reading.

Emperor Chongzhen observed for a while and then raised his head.

When Liu Xingzuo saw it, he immediately stepped forward and unlocked the cell door.

Only then did the man inside hear the noise. He turned around and saw that the commander of the Jinyi Guards had opened the cell door himself. He was startled and stood up quickly.

You know, in this and Jinyiwei Prison, the commander is the sky here. Regardless of whether the person in the prison is a dragon or a tiger outside, they all have to lie down here.

However, he soon discovered that after the commander of the Jin Yiwei opened the lock, he did not do anything to him. Instead, he stood aside with a very respectful expression. This surprised him and he looked outside. Just one look at it frightened him.

Zhu Yujian hurriedly knelt on the ground, his voice trembling slightly, and he didn't know whether it was fear or excitement: "The sinner Zhu Yujian, long live the emperor, long live, long live the emperor!"

Emperor Chongzhen walked into the cell and did not let him straighten out immediately. Instead, he walked up to Zhu Yujian and looked at the table.

I saw a stack of books on the table. They seemed to have been read many times and were obviously a bit old. I picked up a book and read it, and found that many pages contained comments, which were obviously Zhu Yujian's own reading experience.

After Emperor Chongzhen read it, he turned to look at Zhu Yujian who was lying on the ground, thinking that Tang Shisun had finally listened to him and was really reading the book he gave him seriously.

Cao Huachun, who was following behind, moved the stool that Zhu Yujian was sitting on. Regardless of whether it was dirty or not, he wiped it vigorously with his official sleeve, and then put it under Emperor Chongzhen's buttocks so that Emperor Chongzhen had a place to sit.

But Emperor Chongzhen did not sit down, but said to Zhu Yujian: "Get up and talk!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yujian quickly thanked him, and then stood up, with a hint of unnaturalness in his movements, obviously feeling a little scared. It's no wonder that he is a young man, only twenty-four years old, and his life is now in the hands of the emperor in front of him. It would be strange if he is still indifferent!

"These books..." As Emperor Chongzhen spoke, he pointed at the books on the table. When he was about to continue speaking, he saw Zhu Yujian's face turned pale, as if he was frightened, "I am the one who made people You sent it to me, you did not disappoint me, you are reading the book seriously!"

"..." Zhu Yujian was about to break out in sweat, but when he heard something unexpected, he was stunned. He raised his head and looked at Emperor Chongzhen, his mouth wide open for a moment, but he was speechless.

Originally, he was worried about what the emperor was thinking when he saw that he, a man who had committed a crime and was probably guilty of treason, was reading some books on the national economy and people's livelihood. If he traced where this book came from, So what should I say?

There is no way to talk about the chat group. Could it be that an acquaintance knew someone from Jinyiwei, so he sent these books in for me to read, and said that it was a labor of love? If so, would the emperor be so angry that he would start to investigate and start a bloody storm?

Zhu Yujian only stayed for a moment, and then he came back to his senses. With an incredible expression and forgetfulness, he actually pointed his finger at Emperor Chongzhen and stammered: "You... you are... you are..."

"Yes, I am here to save all sentient beings!" Emperor Chongzhen smiled slightly after hearing this. He thought he spoke slowly, so he admitted generously.

He even pointed at Liu Xingzuo with his hand and said: "He is Liu." Then he pointed at Cao Huachun, the eunuch of the Chief of Ceremonies who stood respectfully beside him and said: "He is Zhixunzi!"

Zhu Yujian just glanced at Liu Xingzuo and Cao Huachun. For him, the biggest shock was that the leader of the group was the current emperor. Since the emperor is the leader of the group, what's so strange about the fact that the commander of the Jinyi Guards and the eunuch of the Chief of Ceremonies are in the chat group.

Faced with this result, Zhu Yujian didn't know what to say.

Emperor Chongzhen took out the memorial when he saw him like this. When Cao Huachun saw it, he quickly took it and passed it to Zhu Yujian.

Zhu Yujian was a little puzzled. He took it and took a look. His expression suddenly changed again. He quickly knelt down again, but this time he did not bow his head. Instead, he looked up at Emperor Chongzhen and argued: "Your Majesty clearly knows that there are no other messengers for sinners." , I’m just thinking about Qin Wangqi!”

When he said this, he remembered what the emperor had said to him in the group before, and couldn't help but feel a little more hope in his heart.

"No matter what, you have violated the ancestral system after all!" Emperor Chongzhen said slowly. When he saw Zhu Yujian's expression change, he continued, "This time I come to see you in person, so naturally I want to give you a chance. It’s up to you to choose!”

Hearing this, no matter how young Zhu Yujian was, he understood that this choice was definitely not a good one. Otherwise, why would the emperor personally come to Jinyiwei to imprison him!

Looking at the emperor who was several years younger than himself, Zhu Yujian couldn't help but feel anxious again. He didn't know what choice the emperor would give him.
