In the face of the crisis, Emperor Chongzhen hated the most was corrupt officials. Xue Guoguan Chongzhen had high hopes, but this guy was actually a corrupt official.

"Continue to investigate for me. Anyone who implicates them will be punished according to the law! This case does not need to be tried by the Three Laws, and your Jinyiwei will be fully dealt with."

Luo Yangxing was shocked. Chongzhen was going to use the re-doc. This time he investigated, he was actually the chief assistant. Moreover, the three courts could not intervene.

The Ming Dynasty used the Ministry of Justice, the Censorate, and the Dali Temple as the Three Judicial Departments. When there were major cases, the Three Judicial Departments would be tried together, also known as "Three Judicial Departments to be tried together."

Chongzhen actually handed over the full power to the Jinyiwei. It seems that he no longer trusted the Three Justice Departments. Even a chief minister became a huge corrupt person, and the officials below could have a few good things. If someone in the Three Justice Department was involved with Xue Guoguan, the case would be difficult to investigate.

It would be better to just leave it to the Jinyiwei. What are you ministers against me? I want to see how long can you dog officials be rampant?

Luo Yangxing took his life and began to investigate Xue Guoguan. Unlike ordinary officials, it is still a bit difficult to investigate a cabinet chief. However, no matter how difficult it is, it is not difficult for the Jinyiwei.

The chief minister of the cabinet, that is, the auxiliary minister who ranks first in the cabinet. In the Ming Dynasty, the " chief minister" was a respectful title for the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet, and a few of them ranked first in the cabinet with Hanlin Bachelor's degree, which was opposite to the second and group assistants of the cabinet.

If there is a chief assistant, there will be a secondary assistant and a group assistant. So, there will be competition. With competition, the Jinyiwei will have a way to deal with them.

Because he defeated the chief assistant, the second assistant was on the top. Therefore, the most direct way to defeat the chief assistant was to start from the second assistant.

Zhu Cilang no longer participated in the investigation of Xue Guoguan's case by the Jinyiwei because he knew that Luo Yang was good at doing well. If he couldn't even do this, he, the commander of the Jinyiwei, would have done his best.

Being a prince is just this kind of benefit, and many things don’t have to be handled by yourself. Because there is an emperor’s father above you. Emperor Chongzhen would never allow corrupt officials among the court officials, and he was also a high-ranking and powerful chief minister. Chongzhen would not give up until he killed Xue Guoguan.

In fact, after returning to Beijing, Zhu Cixuan still had a lot of messes to deal with. First of all, my sister's condition improved, which is what made me most relieved. Also, I should go and see Queen Yi'an of Cining Palace.

Queen Yi'an treated her well and did not go to see her when she came back this time. More importantly, I don't know how the crops planted by Zhu Cilang's personal eunuch Liu Laifu in the garden in Cining Palace were like this.

Also, make money. The treasury is still empty, and there are more places to use money. The domestic thieves have not yet been settled, and the refugees have not been resettled.

If the refugees are not well placed, they will be rebels when they pick up weapons. The root of all this lies in one word - money.

The father-in-law Zhou Kui was almost dismissed by him. After all, he was his own grandfather, so Zhu Cilang was somewhat guilty. So he decided to go to Zhou's mansion and talk to his grandfather about life.

"Parent Sun, call Meng Fanchao, let's go to the father-in-law's mansion to take a look." In the Eastern Palace, Zhu Cilang ordered the young eunuch Sun Wangcai beside him.

Liu Laifu and Sun Wangcai were both eunuchs who grew up with Zhu Cilang. Why did the emperor or prince call eunuchs a companion?

The name of companion started in the Ming Dynasty. The meaning of companion is the companion around the emperor, who is often around the emperor. In addition to the title of "companion", some emperors in the Ming Dynasty called eunuchs or husbands, which was a bit eye-catching.

The father-in-law's mansion is really a bit miserable. When Zhu Cilang came, he thought he had gone to the wrong place. The main door was closed, and the two big lions at the door were moved away by someone. Perhaps it was sold by Zhou Kui to pay off the bill.

Sun Wangcai went over and locked the door. After a while, a servant poked his head out. This was the servant of Zhou Kui - Liufu.

When Liufu saw that it was the prince's private visit, he was so scared that he hurriedly opened the door. Zhu Cilang took Sun Wangcai and Meng Fanchao into the door. Liufu hurriedly closed the door again, and then he dared to salute Zhu Cilang: "The villain has seen Master Qiansui."

Zhu Cixuan nodded slightly: "Where is my grandfather?"

I have to say that Liu Fu is really a loyal servant. He stretched out his sleeve and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes: "Master Qiansui, Master Qian, he, hey, you'd better go and see it yourself."

It seems that Zhou Kui was being tortured this time, and Zhu Cilang felt even more guilty. No one could stand anyone who had only pulled the wool from a sheep on his body. Besides, it was a miracle that Zhou Kui was so stingy.

In fact, Zhou Kui has searched dozens of times for a brief visit. His family property has been plundered, so what's the point of living?

Zhou Kui, who is at home all day, is studying a hundred ways of death for humans. If the servants were not careful about it, they would have gone there.

It was a bit shabby. This was Zhu Cilang's true feeling when he saw the bare courtyard. When he arrived at the front hall, something happened again.

The Zhou family knew what kind of virtue Zhou Kui was. The family was afraid that he would find a short-sighted view at any time, so they sent a few servants to guard Zhou Kui for twelve hours. What they were afraid of was that Zhou Kui was seeking death.

Since so many people are looking at him, Zhou Kui's hundred ways of death can no longer be used. He thought of a trick ingeniously, which is to hold his breath.

That’s right, relying on your strong willpower to hold your breath and suffocate yourself to death.

The wealth of my family has been gone, what's the point of living? Aren't you stopping me from dying? You don't let me hang myself, jump into a well, poisoned wine, white silk, etc. Well, I won't suffocate myself to death without breathing, you can't control this.

Zhou Kui sat on the Taishi chair in the mansion hall, his face turning from white to red, and then to blue and purple.

At first, the servants did not notice anything was wrong. Because Zhou Kui had been staring at something during these days, he could stare at a vase for a whole morning. So Zhou Kui, who was sitting on the Grand Master's chair, did not attract the servant's advice.

Until someone noticed that the Taishi Chair was shaking slightly. When he turned his head, he found that Zhou Kui was holding the armrest of the chair with both hands tightly, and his face was filled with blue veins.

The servant was suspicious and carefully went over and stretched out his fingers to explore Zhou Kui's breath. Then he was shocked: "It's not good, the father-in-law is going to hold his breath and suffocate himself to death!"

You know, this move really works. Zhou Kui tilted his body and slid down from the Grand Master's chair. He fainted.

Unfortunately, holding your breath can't kill you.

If a person has extremely strong tolerance and extremely strong willpower in time, and can hold his breath forever, his body will eventually enter a hypoxic state and he will fall into a coma.

After falling into a coma, the brainstem will take over and direct the breathing process, so our breathing will return to normal under the command of the brainstem. Next, we will regain consciousness, so it is impossible to suffocate ourselves to death unless there is external assistance.
