My Daming New Empire

He had thought that if Ming Dynasty unified the countries, killing would be inevitable.

He thinks the pain is worth it.

But when he really came to this step, he felt an unbearable pain!

Thank you for seeing people with lights, the thirsty fish zz, bamboo sticks, Bai, I spit you for the reward, thank you everyone

Chapter 22 Killing Chickens and Terrorizing Monkeys

Of course, the others didn't have Zheng He's entanglements and pains. They were all enthusiastic about this conspiracy that hadn't exploded yet.

This is a rebellion. Although it didn't break out, conclusive evidence has been found. Anyone who participates in it will have credit for it.

The Counseling Department, Jin Yiwei, the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and even the civil servants all want to contribute to the trial process. Only in this way can they get more credit.

Therefore, only Zheng He wants to make big things smaller, but the other ministers all want small things to be big!

The residence of the Ministry of Justice is a farm provided by a big family surnamed Huang in Old Port.In the process of making a fortune, they bought thousands of natives to reclaim land, and this farm was specially used to detain those native coolies.

Although the basic conditions here are poor, the farm that looks like a prison is just right for the Ministry of Punishment to serve as a prison.

In one afternoon, hundreds of people were detained here, and the operation has not stopped, and more and more people are being sent here.

Most of them are the upper echelons of the former old port, and many of them are important ministers of the new capital of the old Sanfoqi state.

But at this time, no one cared who they were. The officials from the Ministry of Justice from Daming and the soldiers dispatched by the Habayashi Guard had nothing to do with them.

Everyone was tied with one hand to rows of wooden railings, and it was strictly forbidden to make any noise.

As long as anyone speaks, he will be whipped the most severely by the guarding soldiers.

This is to prevent people from colluding with each other. If it wasn't for the limited space in the farm, it would be most appropriate for everyone to be held alone.

Just tying one hand with a rope doesn't really have any effect, and everyone can untie it with their backhands.

But no one dared to do this, because now they are only restricting their freedom. If they are found to be innocent, they will be released, but if they want to escape now, they will die and their families will be harmed.

Although some people admit that their crimes are unforgivable, everyone can't speak now, and they can't do anything even if they want to connect.

There are not only tribal leaders of various ethnic groups, officials of Sanfoqi, but also many servants and followers.It's not just foreigners, there are even some Chinese, but the number of Chinese is very small.

These people are used to being masters, but now as prisoners, they can only show a wry smile when facing their acquaintances.

It wasn't until evening that a Ming official came with His Royal Highness' imperial edict and read out the prison discipline and management procedures.

Before the interrogation, no one was allowed to see anyone or say a word. Once someone was found to speak, they would be whipped twenty times for the first time, and executed directly for the second time.

If it is convenient, you can raise your hand and get the permission of the guard before you can go to the convenience.

The conditions of these people are still good, at least they have a shack with a roof, so they won't get caught in the rain.

As for their entourage and subordinates, they were all gathered in the rainy open space, and they could only sit on the muddy ground without any protection.

It wasn't that there were no followers who wanted to escape, but the roar of the muskets immediately made everyone dare not move.

Although Daming's two fleets brought over dozens of muskets, most people had never seen them.

Even those nobles have only heard of matchlock guns. When have they seen this kind of musket that does not need to be ignited.

More people thought it was a punishment from heaven, and no one dared to act rashly.

The six corpses were hung on the wooden beams in the yard, which also deterred everyone, who wanted to escape.

In a row of relatively tight large warehouses in the farm, this place was originally a warehouse for storing agricultural tools. In order to prevent expensive iron tools from being stolen, it was built with earth bricks rammed with loess mixed with rice soup, and it has also become the current command of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. department.

At this time, more than a dozen officials of the Ministry of Punishment headed by Xiong Kan, the servant of the Ministry of Punishment, and more than 100 Confucian scholars who were transferred were busy.

The incident happened suddenly, and hundreds of people were arrested at once, and Jin Yiwei and Yubayashi Wei were still arresting, and the people in the farm were almost overwhelmed.

Xiong Kan can only choose those Confucian scholars who are not afraid of seeing blood and are ruthless to serve as documents and conduct trials.

He traveled with Zhu Zhanji this time, and only brought two doctors, four principals, a miller, a school inspector, and a few prison managers.

I thought it would be an easy trip, because most of the fleet is composed of soldiers, and military crimes are basically handled internally.

All the civil servants and Confucian scholars who accompanied him were only a few thousand people, and there were strict restrictions from superiors and subordinates, so there should be no cases.

But when he came to Old Port, Zhu Zhanji gave him such a big "surprise" all at once.

Surprised that so many people were arrested at once, happy that this big case is simply a ready-made credit.

More than 100 people were crowded in this big warehouse, and several doctors and principals were busy grouping the transferred Confucian scholars and then assigning different tasks.

They also drew 2000 people from the young army to be responsible for arresting people, sending them away, and executing them. Just assigning each person's responsibilities cannot be arranged in a short time.

So those people who were arrested now have no time for interrogation at all, so they can only be kept outside in the rain.

The sky had already darkened, and the Ministry of Criminal Justice assigned duties to everyone.Bonfires and torches were lit everywhere in the farm, illuminating all parts of the farm.

Those who just wanted to take advantage of the dark to escape did not have any chance.

"My lord, inform the Jinyiwei that people can no longer be arrested. The farm can't accommodate so many people, and all the prisoners have not been numbered yet, and people are still being sent over."

Although Xiong Kan was dizzy from being busy, he was in high spirits. "Can't fit in the farm?"

"Now that I have installed Qianwu, there is no place to stay."

"As long as you can pretend, do your best to pretend. It's rare to encounter such a big case, do you have to push the credit to the outside? Jinyiwei arrests people are not too hard, what are we afraid of?"

"With so many people, when will the interrogation last?"

"If you don't have enough manpower, ask Jin Shangshu for someone. There are two or three thousand Confucian scholars. Are you afraid that there will be no manpower?"

"Those Confucian scholars have a fart. As soon as they beat people to pieces, they vomited one by one, and they couldn't even hold their pens."

Xiong Kan laughed and said: "You Liao Mazi, you forgot that you also came from this stage. This kind of scene will become numb after seeing too much! If you go through this time, you can pick out dozens of these Confucian scholars. It’s a good thing to use it.”

The Ministry of Justice's side is just cumbersome, but Jin Yiwei and Yubayashiwei's side is really suffering through wind and rain.

During this period, there were even more than a dozen resistance incidents, all of which were suppressed by them, killing more than 100 people.

One of the extreme imams set fire to the mosque with his own hands when he was being arrested, and died in the flames himself.

In the process, Daming's soldiers also injured more than a dozen people and killed one.

This is a careless guy who was stabbed in the internal organs by the other party and was not rescued.

When he got the news, Zhu Zhanji accepted Shi Jinqing's invitation to have dinner with the ministers and tribal leaders of the Three Buddhas and Qi Kingdom, as well as the accompanying envoys from some Western countries in the palace.
