Signed to Zhu Cihong, Prince of the Late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 326 Chapter 326, the whole city of Beijing was a sensation, and Emperor Chongzhen ignored it
When hundreds of thousands of clan members were escorted into the prison in Beijing, the whole city of Beijing was shocked.

At the feet of the emperor, the citizens of Beijing naturally have a stronger political sensitivity than other places. Even the old man who sells vegetables on the street can chat about one, two, three, four, five.

After such a big event happened, all kinds of rumors spread throughout the entire capital almost instantly.

"Have you heard? His Royal Highness locked up thousands of clans all at once!"

"Have you heard? His Royal Highness locked up thousands of officials at once!"

"Have you heard? His Royal Highness killed thousands of officials at once!"

"Have you heard? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has launched a coup and does not intend to allow His Majesty to come back from his vacation in Shandong!"

The story of the three becoming tigers was once again confirmed in the capital at this moment.

In the capital government office, there was a dead silence.

"What should I do?"

"Your Highness said, you need to interrogate properly!"

"But, those are all the clan, relatives of the emperor..."

Eventually, someone patted the table.

"Who cares about his clan or not, you are afraid of offending the clan, but think about it, if there is no trial, His Royal Highness will be offended!"

It was quiet again.

The relatives of the royal family are indeed very scary.

But if the person standing opposite the emperor's relatives is the prince, the future emperor of Ming Dynasty...

Someone spoke.

"My lord is right."

"Trial."

"If the trial is fast enough, the case must be settled!"

"Yes, everyone, don't go back tonight. Interrogation will be held overnight. If you need to be sentenced, you will be sentenced. Just try not to kill anyone."

Tonight, the prison in Beijing City is destined to be brightly lit.

In the cell, Fu Wang Zhu Yousong sat alone, with a depressed expression, gnashing his teeth from time to time and cursing in a low voice.

"This Zhu Cihong, how dare he risk the displeasure of the world and do such a thing?"

"Hundreds of thousands of clans, isn't he afraid of being torn apart?"

"Miscalculated, we should organize more people, these hundreds of people can't accomplish anything at all."

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps, followed by a soft call.

"My lord, my lord?"

Zhu Yousong suddenly raised his head and threw himself directly at the iron railings of the cell.

Standing outside was a middle-aged man who looked like a jailer, but Zhu Yousong could recognize from his voice that this man was his confidant Wang Guanshi in Fu Wangfu.

"Old Wang? Quick, save this king!" Zhu Yousong said repeatedly.

Manager Wang looked helpless, shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, the people from the Beijing Mansion have decided to interrogate other clans overnight. It took a lot of connections for me to come in and see you. I can't save you right now."

Zhu Yousong's face turned pale as if struck by lightning.

Steward Wang looked left and right, with an obviously anxious expression on his face, and said softly, "My lord, if you have anything to say, tell this old slave, and this old slave can't stay here for too long."

Zhu Yousong was silent for a moment, then suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "This is the end, there is no other choice."

Zhu Yousong untied a token directly from his waist and put it in Wang Guanshi's hand: "You leave the capital immediately to chase after His Majesty's driver. General Li Ming of the Imperial Guard owed my father a favor back then, as long as you put Give this token to General Li Ming, and he will take you to see His Majesty. Let Your Majesty save me, this is the only way!"

Steward Wang nodded, took the token, and left in a hurry.

Zhu Yousong looked at Guanshi Wang's leaving figure and suddenly felt exhausted. He leaned against the wall slowly and muttered to himself.

"Zhu Cihong, you hairless yellow-mouthed brat...you're so ruthless!"

Outside the prison, Guanshi Wang hurried out and got into the carriage.

In the darkness, several pairs of eyes were silently watching Steward Wang's carriage leave.

A voice whispered: "Eunuch Fang, this steward is a confidant of Prince Fu. When he went to see Prince Fu, he must have received some instructions. Do you want to arrest him?"

Another person said: "Looking at the direction of the carriage, it seems that Manager Wang wants to leave the city."

The previous voice said: "It's not like you don't know about the closure of the city at night."

He was answered with a sneer: "The people who seal the city are ordinary people and ordinary officials. Can you seal the chief steward of the prince's mansion? What a joke."

Fang Gongqian's voice sounded: "Okay, stop talking."

Everyone quieted down.

Fang Gongqian pondered for a moment, and said: "Leaving the city now is nothing more than looking for His Majesty...then let him go."

Chongzhen sat on the imperial car, looking at the sky above his head, feeling very comfortable.

This chariot is specially made and is very spacious. It can even fit a bed inside, which is very comfortable.

The carriage was swaying, and Chongzhen was reclining on the couch, his eyes half-opened and half-closed, as if he was about to fall asleep.

Wang Chengen stood beside Chongzhen and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, something seems to have happened in the capital."

Chongzhen hummed, and said slowly: "What's the matter?"

Wang Chengen thought for a while, and said: "His Royal Highness wants to reduce the treatment of the clan, and some clans are going to make trouble, and His Highness has arrested them."

Chongzhen was noncommittal, and asked again: "Is the situation controllable?"

Wang Cheng'en said: "Naturally, all civil and military officials are on the prince's side."

Chongzhen laughed suddenly: "Is it because Lang'er said that if the support money of the clan is not cut, then the appropriation of the six departments will be cut?"

Wang Chengen also showed a smile on his face: "It should be like this."

Chongzhen's body moved slightly, Wang Chengen hurried forward and helped Chongzhen to sit up.

Chongzhen stared at the blue sky above his head, and after a while, he said leisurely: "Who reported the letter, Fan Jingwen?"

Wang Cheng'en said: "Master Fan, Duke Ying, and Uncle Xiangcheng's messengers arrived within half an hour, but there was also a steward from the Fuwang family who also arrived."

"Fu Wang?" Chongzhen frowned and said, "Why did he get involved?"

Wang Cheng'en said: "Some people say that King Fu wants to be the Da Zongzheng."

Chongzhen didn't know what to think of, his face suddenly became gloomy.

After a while, Chongzhen said coldly: "Go back and tell Xun'er to release King Fu and order him to return to Nanjing from now on. He is not allowed to leave unless there is nothing! As for the other people, just let him do whatever he wants."

Wang Chengen nodded slightly, but hesitated a little, and reminded softly: "Some of those arrested are still elders."

Chongzhen waved his hand and said, "I'm here for vacation! Why are elders not elders? Did any elders rescue me when the city of Beijing was besieged? What's the use of coming to find me now! Alright, now That's all for now, go ahead."

Wang Chengen took the order, got out of the carriage and left quickly.

Behind Chongzhen, Queen Zhou's voice suddenly sounded.

"Your Majesty, will something happen to Lang'er?"

Chongzhen laughed, and stretched vigorously.

"Won't something happen to Hong'er? I just hope now that Hong'er doesn't let too many people get into trouble."
