Wang Chengen and Wang Zhixin were here to visit the Crown Prince.
Although Chongzhen was mean, he treated his children well.
The moment they arrived at Ciqing Palace, the two eunuchs saw three thousand Brocade Guards that were as fierce as wolves and tigers.
Especially the four Embroidered Uniform Guards commanders standing at the front, they were like gods descending to the mortal world.
This kind of aura, this kind of prestige, one look and one could tell that it was a massacre of countless people!
Where did Prince find these tigers and wolves?
What did the crown prince want to do by gathering these ferocious men?
The more the two eunuchs thought about it, the more afraid they became.
Although it was chilly in the spring, they were already drenched in cold sweat when they reached the Crown Prince's bedroom.
……
"This old servant Wang Chengen/Wang Zhixin greets Your Highness the Crown Prince.”
Upon seeing Zhu Ci, the two eunuchs hurriedly bowed.
"Yes!"
Zhu Ci Xin nodded but did not let them get up.
The two of them looked at each other and saw a trace of confusion and surprise in each other's eyes.
One had to know that they were the top two existences in the internal court. In the outer court, they were the first and second assistants of the cabinet.
Usually, when the Crown Prince saw them, he would not only be polite, but he would also address them respectfully as "Wang Daban" and "Wang Banban".
What was going on today?
However, when they thought of the 3,000 Embroidered Uniform Guards standing outside the hall, the two eunuchs could only suppress their suspicions and dissatisfaction.
"Humph!"
Looking at the two chief eunuchs of the ceremonial department, Zhu Ciyao sneered.
Wang Chengen was the internal minister, but his ability was not even comparable to Wei Zhongxian's toe.
However, he was still loyal, and in the end, he accompanied Chongzhen to hang himself in Mei Mountain.
In comparison, Wang Zhixin, the second most powerful eunuch, was much more detestable.
When the raiders approached the city, Chongzhen ordered everyone to donate money to defend the city.
As the richest eunuch, Wang Zhixin did not fork out a single cent.
However, in the subsequent interrogation, he handed over three hundred thousand taels of silver in one go.
Later on, in order to save his life, he handed over five hundred thousand taels of silver one after another.
If this money was handed over to defend the city, it could at least raise hundreds of thousands of able-bodied men!
The capital wouldn't have fallen in a single day!
This kind of traitor deserved to be killed!
"King's Heart, do you know your sins?" Zhu Ci asked in a cold tone.
"Old servant, what crime have you committed?" King's Heart raised his head in a daze.
"In order to raise money for military expenses, the empress and bengong have begun to sell their ancestral property. King's Heart, you didn't donate a single cent? If this Big Ming dies, what good will it do you?”
Zhu Ci Xin's tone revealed boundless killing intent.
So it was because of this!
Wang Zhixin was enlightened.
"Thousand Year Old Master, this old servant is wronged! Ever since Wansui became the emperor, this old servant has been working day and night, so poor that I don't even have a coffin. This old servant's loyalty to the Imperial Court is as bright as the sun and moon! Sob sob…this old servant is wronged!"
Looking at the bawling Wang Zhixin, Zhu Ciyan felt that if he didn't know the truth, he would have been fooled by his wonderful acting skills.
"Azure Dragon."
Zhu Ci Xin couldn't be bothered to talk nonsense with him and directly called the Azure Dragon over.
"Your humble servant is here." Azure Dragon respectfully replied.
"What is the name of the ninth blade of the Great Ming Fourteen Forces?”
"Reporting to Qiansui, the name is 'disobeying the imperial edict.”
What was that?
Fourteen Forces of Great Ming?
Disobeying orders and disobeying orders?
Those who hold the fourteen forces of the Ming Dynasty only listen to the emperor.
Even if there was a mountain of knives and a sea of flames in front of him, the saber-wielding man only had the emperor's orders in his eyes. He would not stop until he achieved his goal!
But weren't the fourteen forces of the Ming Dynasty already destroyed?
Moreover, His Highness the Crown Prince wasn't the Lord of Ten Thousand Years!
Wang Chengen and Wang Zhixin were shocked.
"Wang Zhixin disobeyed orders and lied to the Ruler. BenGong orders you to take his life."
"Understood!"
Whoosh!
With a crisp sound, the Azure Dragon pulled out the Disobeying Decree Saber of the Fourteen Forces of Great Ming.
"Lord Thousand Years! Thousand Years Lord! This old servant is willing to donate all my wealth! Donate all your wealth!"
Seeing the cold light of the disobeying sword, Wang Zhixin panicked and kowtowed repeatedly to beg for mercy.
"No need, bengong will go get it herself.”
Puchi!
Blood splattered everywhere as Wang Zhixin was beheaded by Azure Dragon.
Azure Dragon shook off the blood on his saber and sheathed it. He stood aside as if nothing had happened, as if he had just crushed a bug.
"Ah!"
Wang Chongen finally reacted.
The number two figure in the internal court, the pen-wielding eunuch Wang Zhixin, who was only second to him, was actually killed by the Crown Prince!
One had to know that although these eunuchs were the servants of the emperor, the only one who had the right to punish them was the current Lord Wansui!
The crown prince was rebelling!
"Wang Chongen, Wang Zhixin is not loyal to the Imperial Court. Do you accept my punishment?”
Zhu Ci Xin could tell what Wang Chong 'en was thinking at a glance.
"This, this old servant is sincerely convinced! This old servant is willing to donate all of his family property, only asking Thousand Year Master to spare this old servant's life, please spare this old servant's life!”
Wang Chongen immediately reacted and knelt there kowtowing.
In an instant, blood gushed out from his forehead.
He was really scared!
Wang Chongen had never seen such an imposing manner of controlling the world in the Wanli, Taichang, Tianqi, and Chongzhen dynasties.
Only Emperor Hongwu and Emperor Yongle would have such an imposing manner!
"Alright."
Zhu Ci Xin nodded." This is the time when I need people. As long as you are obedient, I can spare your dog life."”
Eunuchs had no children and were crippled, so they were particularly interested in money.
It was already commendable that Wang Chongen could accompany the Ming Dynasty to be buried.
Now that he was willing to donate all his wealth, and he had something he needed, he could temporarily avoid death.
"Wang Chongen, you have been in the position of the ceremonial supervisor for a long time, so you must know who is the richest in the capital. Tell bengong the truth." Zhu Ci asked.
"Yes, yes, yes."
Wang Chongen did not bother to wipe the blood from his forehead and hurriedly replied,""Your Highness, apart from the Imperial Court, the civil officials, generals, eunuchs, and nobles all have a net worth of a million.”
"This bunch of great rats! As expected, they all deserve to be killed!" A sharp light flashed in Zhu Ci's eyes.
This bunch of worms were lying on Da Ming's big tree, constantly sucking blood, forcefully draining Da Ming's nutrients.
But what they didn't expect was that neither the raiders nor the Eastern Krupp had any intention of accepting them. Instead, they treated them as fat sheep and squeezed them hard.
If they had a little conscience and brain, Da Ming and them wouldn't have ended up in such a tragic state!
Zhu Ci wrote a few names and handed them to Wang Chengen.""Bengong is going to capture him. Look at what I wrote, right?”
"Hiss…"
Wang Chong 'en took a deep breath when he saw the name list!
What the Crown Prince wrote on it were all the civil and military officials and relatives of the Imperial Family!
Especially since the first person on the list was actually the current country's father, the Crown Prince's biological grandfather, the Jiading Earl Zhou Kui!
"Humph!"
Seeing that Wang Chong 'en did not answer immediately, Zhu Ci Xin snorted coldly.
"That's right! Thousand Year Lord's list was absolutely correct!”
Wang Chong 'en broke out in a cold sweat.
"Come on! Follow me to kill, set fire to steal silver.”
Zhu Ci said to the outside of the hall.
"Understood!"
The three thousand Embroidered Uniform Guards agreed in unison.
Whoosh!
Seeing everyone leave, Wang Chengen finally heaved a sigh of relief and sat on the ground.
The heavens…
It was going to change!
