In the dungeon of the East Chamber.
Feng Bao's face was gloomy.
Ye Gucheng was injured by Zhu Yijun, but it was not fatal.
Although there was no fatal injury, Ye Gucheng's strength was greatly reduced. At this moment, he was afraid that even a second-rate master was not his match...
Until now, Ye Gucheng still didn't know how he lost. His ultimate skill, the Transcendent Flying Immortal, couldn't even block two fingers from the young emperor.
When Feng Bao entered the prison, he saw that Ye Gucheng was only tied up with black iron chains, and his face was as cold as ice.
"Punish him!"
Feng Bao didn't interrogate him, but ordered his subordinates to execute him. Two two feet long and thick black iron nails were taken out. Several Brocade Guard grabbed Ye Gucheng's arms, which puzzled Ye Gucheng.
The Brocade Guard locked Ye Gucheng's body firmly to the wall, aimed the black iron nail at Ye Gucheng's palm, and swung the hammer fiercely!
Pounds!
The two-foot-long black iron nail was driven into Ye Gucheng's arm, entering his palm while the other part emerged from his arm...
This was not a restaurant or teahouse!
This was the East Chamber!
This was a purgatory that was even more terrifying than Yan Luo Dian!
There were all kinds of torture tools available. This steel nail piercing through the bone was just one of the common punishments.
"A peerless expert? The White Cloud City Lord? A decisive battle at the top of the Forbidden City! Both legs!" Feng Bao roared hoarsely.
A few Brocade Guard fixed Ye Gucheng's legs to the wall and pierced his knees with a black iron nail. Ye Gucheng could no longer bend his knees.
Feng Bao had pierced the steel nails into Ye Gucheng's hands and feet just to prevent him from escaping…
If Ye Gucheng had been caught by the Ministry of Justice, he would not have been able to bear these crimes. However, the person who had caught him was the East Military Department.
From the moment he fell into the hands of the Brocade Guard of the East Chamber, he was destined to have a bad fate.
"If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for daring to assassinate the emperor!”
Feng Bao stared at Ye Gucheng. He had thought of a hundred ways to torture him.
Originally, there were already a basket of memorials to impeach Feng Bao, and now they were piled up into a mountain. Even if Feng Bao caught all the murderers who tried to assassinate the Emperor and interrogated this case until the truth was out, he would still be unable to absolve himself from the blame.
If he wasn't rewarded with a cup of poisoned wine, it would already be an act of mercy.
Because the assassination of the Emperor was the East Chamber's dereliction of duty…
In the end, when Ximen Chuixue and Ye Gucheng fought at the top of the Forbidden City, the East Chamber, who should have been the first to know the news, was kept in the dark. This was the greatest dereliction of duty!
Feng Bao's hatred for Ye Gucheng had already filled Dong Hai!
He wouldn't let Ye Gucheng die so easily. He would torture Ye Gucheng. He would let Ye Gucheng know the consequences of assassinating the Emperor…
"I could have been the Duke of Peace who was under one person and above all others, but it was you! It was you who destroyed all my dreams!”
Feng Bao roared. Yu Huatian stood behind Feng Bao with a cold expression.
If Feng Bao lost his power, then he, Yu Huatian, would be the most powerful person here…
……
In the Palace of Heavenly Purity, after Zhu Yijun summoned Qi Jiguang and his wife, Qi Jiguang told Zhu Yijun about the various benefits of artillery. He also promised Zhu Yijun that as long as he was given one million taels of silver and allowed Qi Jiguang to develop artillery, he could guarantee that the artillery would be able to form a scale and supervise production in a short period of time, becoming an existence that was not inferior to the Gun Battalion of the Imperial Guards.
Moreover, Qi Jiguang hoped that Zhu Yijun would release the ban on the sea and retrain the navy. The reason why the pirates were so rampant was because they were extremely good at water warfare. The Ming Navy was tired of training due to the lack of silver. Many large ships were placed in the shipping industry and gave birth to rats...
The Ming Empire's navy was very powerful, especially those ships. The level of shipbuilding was very high.
It was a pity that the national treasury did not allocate any money and left those ships in the docks to be infested with insects…
If the Ming Navy still had its dignity, which pirates would dare to enter the Ming Sea defense?
Moreover, the giant ship could be equipped with thousands of pounds of city defense cannons. These cannons were extremely powerful. If they could walk freely on the sea, they would be no less than mobile artillery!
Qi Jiguang strongly suggested. In Qi Jiguang's view, only with a strong ship and sharp cannons could the enemy be completely stopped!
Nowadays, the Japanese pirates mostly used merchant ships, and those merchant ships could be sunk with just one shot!
Zhu Yijun listened to Qi Jiguang's suggestion and nodded secretly. The tentacles of the West had already touched the East. The Falang Jis were Portugal. Now that they had built sharp cannons, it wouldn't be long before they would build steel warships.
If he still pretended to be asleep, he would really be going against the times…
"One million taels of silver is not enough! I will give you two million taels of silver. From now on, train your soldiers at Tanggu Harbor and help me revive the Ming Navy! Carry out the plan you mentioned, especially the sea fortress you mentioned, the mobile cannon!”
"Your Majesty is wise!"
Qi Jiguang knelt on the ground and kowtowed. He actually cried loudly, tears continuously pouring out.
After so many years, there was finally someone who supported him!
Moreover, it was in the current world!
Although Wansui was still young, he was definitely a wise ruler! Sage Monarch!
Zhu Yijun looked at the grateful Qi Jiguang and said,""Get up, I still need you to help me conquer the Wei pirates! You will meet a strong opponent there.”
"Your Majesty, please explain."
"Toyotomi Hideyoshi."
"I understand. I will lead the ships and cannons to the land of the pirates and use the cannons to tell them the anger of the Celestial Empire!”
……
After Li Rusong briefly described how he defeated the Horqin Mongol Cavalry, Zhu Yijun awarded Li Rusong a third rank official title and promoted him to the Left Assistant Minister of the Ministry of War. He was also appointed as the Conquest General to replace Qi Jiguang and guard the border of the capital.
It was already late at night. Zhu Yijun ordered the two to leave the Forbidden City.
After Qi Jiguang left.
Zhu Yijun lay on the dragon bed and felt the unprecedented silence in the Forbidden City.
Although Zhu Yijun's side was very quiet, the world outside the Forbidden City had already set off a monstrous wave.
The Embroidered Uniform Guards arrested many martial arts experts overnight. These Jianghu people were unable to resist and were detained by the Embroidered Uniform Guards…
"I'm really a little tired."
Zhu Yijun lay on the bed and began to fall asleep. After awakening the Divine Sweeping Monk martial soul, even the slightest movement within a hundred steps could not escape Zhu Yijun's ears. Even in his sleep, Zhu Yijun could still be on guard.
The next day, a eunuch called out softly,"Your Majesty, are you going to court early today?"”
"Zhen is even tired. I won't be able to attend the morning court today!”
"Yes!"
Zhu Yijun had not attended court for more than ten days. However, his reason for not attending court was very legitimate. Which emperor would not recuperate for a few months after being assassinated?
However, even if Zhu Yijun did not attend the court, he did not delay the government affairs in the court. If there was an emergency, Gao Gong, Zhang Juzheng, and the others would come to the Palace of Heavenly Purity to report…
……
After Qi Jiguang left, he ordered the soldiers that followed him to head to Tanggu Port. He had two million taels of silver and an imperial edict in his pocket. He finally roared like a tiger and roared like a dragon, and took revenge!
