After the man in black robe finished speaking, he looked coldly at the young man in front of him. Behind him, two people stood, also wearing black robes, with masks covering their faces.
The two men suddenly pulled out their machetes.
The young man was suddenly shocked.
Who are these people?
Are they from Cao Wei?
Or are they from Soochow?
How did they get to Chengdu?
Although the young man was very scared, his mind was running rapidly. He wanted to figure out what was going on.
"Say it quickly!"
The man in black robe urged.
He didn't intend to let this kid have extra time to think wildly. He just wanted to make him afraid and then tell him the answer he wanted to know.
I received two more whips.
The young man was trembling all over after being beaten, but his eyes became sharp, and he glared at the man in black robe in front of him.
"Bah!"
A mouthful of spit flew out and landed on the mask of the man in black robe.
"Huh!" The man in black robe snorted coldly, and then hit him with a whip.
Snap——
There was a crisp sound, and the young man gritted his teeth and did not hum.
"Lock him up first!"
The man in black robe ordered his men to take the young man away and put him in a dark room.
This room is not big, the light is a little dark, and there are already more than a dozen people detained inside.
As soon as the young man entered the room, he found that he knew all the people locked in the dark room.
They are all the guards who followed Emperor Liu Chan and lived in that dilapidated house yesterday.
"Guo Wei?"
"Were you arrested too?"
Before the young man could speak, a companion asked him first.
Guo Wei is the young man who was just imprisoned.
Guo Wei asked: "Why are you here?"
"You ask us?" Another young man frowned and said, "We want to know too."
"Were you also interrogated just now?" Guo Wei continued to ask his companions present.
"Hmm!"
"I woke up and was tied to a pillar, and then there was a man in a black robe."
"He asked me what His Majesty asked us to do?"
Another young man repeated his experience to everyone.
Guo Wei had previously suspected that the man in black robe was either from Cao Wei or Soochow.
But now he feels that something is not right. Whether it is Cao Wei or Soochow, does it make sense for them to arrest a group of imperial guards?
And this is Chengdu.
Cao Wei and Dong Wu dared to arrest people behind the Shuhan Palace, and arrested so many people. How brave they were.
If it is true.
This Shu Han has long been finished.
After a while, a few more people came in. They were the same as Guo Wei and others.
They were all people transferred from the Imperial Guard Camp by Emperor Liu Chan.
"Is His Majesty testing us?"
Suddenly someone asked in confusion: "When the emperor chooses his own soldiers, he must choose trustworthy people, so your majesty deliberately uses this to test us?"
But as soon as he finished speaking, others retorted: "Impossible!"
"His Majesty said that our assessment will only start in three days. How could it start suddenly."
"I...why do I feel that the person who arrested us?" He paused, then lowered his voice and said: "Could it be Minister Fei."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was stunned.
Fei Shilang, also known as Fei Yi.
Fei Yi commanded the palace guards, and his duty was to protect the safety of the palace.
"That's not right!" Guo Wei shook his head and said, "There is no need for Minister Fei to do this. If he wants to know what His Majesty asked us to do."
Guo Wei laughed: "He will know the answer just by asking a few people."
"Besides, Fei Shilang is just a little servant, why does he have to know this?"
"Then who do you think it will be?" A young man muttered and asked, "Who will catch us?"
Guo Wei shook his head: "How did I know?"
……
Interrogation room——
The interrogation continued, and the man in black robe whipped the young man in front of him again.
"Say!"
"What did the little emperor ask you to do?"
The man in black robe stared at the young man closely, and when he was about to continue beating him, he quickly shook his head: "Stop hitting him, I said, I said."
"Your Majesty wants to select a hundred personal soldiers from among us. I don't know the others right now."
The young man didn't want to be beaten anymore, so he told the man in black robe everything he knew.
"Okay!" The man in black robe shook his head and sighed: "You can leave and go directly back to the Guards Camp!"
"Go back to the Imperial Guard Camp?"
The young man was a little puzzled. The man in black robe sneered and said: "You failed to pass His Majesty's assessment. If you don't return to the Imperial Guard Camp, where else do you want to go?"
"Is this your Majesty's assessment?" the young man asked in horror: "Didn't His Majesty say...didn't he say that the formal assessment would only take place in three days?"
"Go away!" the man in black robe said angrily: "If someone like you is allowed to be His Majesty's personal guard, and the enemy tells you to attack in three days, wouldn't you have to take any precautions during these three days?"
The man in black robe was really angry. The review lasted almost a day, and in the end there were only about forty people. He would rather die than confess.
There were more than 200 people. They had just been whipped twice and even before they were beaten, they said everything.
This is the first level.
According to the current review status, more than 600 people have completed the review. Can 100 people pass the review?
Only those who pass the first level of review and the second level of review are qualified to be His Majesty's personal guards.
That night, the men in black robes conducted inspections all night long. It was not until dawn the next day that all the more than 600 people arrested had been inspected.
A total of 637 people were interrogated.
Only one hundred and seventy-nine people passed the review, and the rest were eliminated and returned to the guard camp.
These people returned to the Janissary camp.
Fei Yi was a little confused.
Didn’t His Majesty want to personally command these more than 600 people? How come more than half of them were sent back in less than two days?
When he heard the people who had returned tell their experiences, Fei Yi felt cold sweat break out on his forehead.
"Your Majesty has changed!"
"Your Majesty has changed!"
Fei Yi really felt that the emperor had changed and he no longer recognized him.
His Majesty the Emperor, whom he is familiar with, is a very docile and humble young man.
Not to mention that he respects the prime minister very much.
Even if they are ordinary courtiers, His Majesty the Emperor treats them with courtesy, which is quite a bit of the legacy of the late emperor.
But now.
After the Prime Minister’s Southern Expedition, His Majesty the Emperor’s whole person seemed to have changed.
I have never left the palace privately before.
Now he not only leaves the palace privately, but also calls Zhuge Qiao and his guards to leave the city directly.
Fei Yi later secretly investigated Liu Chan's departure from the city, and he also went to a village on the outskirts.
After seeing the seedlings growing well in the fields and what the people had witnessed that day, Fei Yi was a little excited after telling him one by one.
"Your Majesty has changed!"
"Your Majesty has changed!"
"There is hope for the revival of the Han Dynasty!"
Although it was the first time for Fei Yi to see this method of growing rice, as an emperor, Liu Chan would think of crops and grain, which shows that he is a qualified monarch.
As the saying goes, food is the most important thing for the people. As a monarch, he can think about helping the people increase their harvest. No matter what he does is successful or not, as long as he does it, he is also a good monarch who cares about the people.
But now——
Fei Yi felt a chill on his back. Liu Chan, the young monarch, became a little scary!
