18: Wu Zhongxian was thrown into prison, was he wronged?
Emperor Zhou Ren glanced at the ministers below.
Two-thirds or even more of the ministers joined Wu Zhongxian.
Only the heavyweight ministers Ji Shiming, King Zhou Ping, and Sima Chengsi did not speak.
But he didn't mean to plead for Wu Zhongxian.
Also, how could they have a good impression of Wu Zhongxian, a eunuch?
Emperor Zhou Ren understood that his real enemies were also hidden among these three people.
Maybe all three!
These three people represent the three forces in the court.
A faction of generals headed by Ji Shiming had the most military power.
A group of civil servant scholars headed by Sima Chengsi, the leader of scholars in the Zhou Dynasty.
Sima Chengsi is even revered as a saint-like existence by scholars.
There is also the last faction, which is the lineage of King Zhou Ping headed by relatives of the emperor.
"Your Majesty, I believe that Wu Zhongxian should be given a lighter sentence in this matter!"
Just then.
A young general standing at the back stood up and made a loud voice that was different from other forces.
In an instant, everyone looked at the young general.
Looks to be in his twenties.
Youthful.
stupid!
Yes, at this time, you would say this kind of thing.
It's equivalent to going against the whole DPRK!
Isn't this stupid?
"explain!"
Only Emperor Zhou Ren's expression remained unchanged.
Because she arranged this person!
"I believe that what Wu Zhongxian did was to eliminate harm for our Great Zhou Dynasty! He does not need to bear any responsibility for this! If we say that killing corrupt officials also needs to bear responsibility, then the executioners who kill the prisoners and those who sentence the prisoners to death
Officials, after they carry out the execution, won’t they all die together with the prisoner!?”
What this general said was impassioned.
King Zhou Ping glanced at him and understood in his heart.
This is a role assigned by the emperor.
"In this case, then put Wu Zhongxian into a prison first and wait for my personal interrogation!"
Emperor Zhou Ren did not give other ministers a chance to threaten him. He used his own chess pieces to directly take Wu Zhongxian into custody.
He cannot choose to be acquitted directly, but he can choose to be given a lighter punishment.
For example, pretend to curse a few words, pretend to be detained for a few days.
The ministers naturally understood the emperor's intention.
The emperor wanted to protect Wu Zhongxian.
What else did the ministers want to say, but Emperor Zhou Ren didn't piss them off, just tossed his dragon robe, got up and left!
I won’t give you a chance to talk to me!
Someone who wants to harm me?
Don’t even think about it!
………
Inside the prison.
"Eunuch Wu, please have a meal."
A large table of delicious food and wine was placed in front of Wu Zhongxian.
As a prisoner taken into custody by the emperor himself, Wu Zhongxian was overcoming the "hard" environment and sitting in prison.
"Pinch your thighs harder, haven't you eaten yet?"
Wu Zhongxian was eating the food fed to his mouth by the palace maid and commanding another palace maid.
The other prisoners in the prison widened their eyes when they saw this scene.
"What's going on?"
"Who is he!? Why are you messing around here!"
"There are actually four maids serving, are they really here to go to jail??"
“…”
Not to mention the shock and envy of other prisoners.
Wu Zhongxian himself is actually not too satisfied.
Although the emperor specially arranged a palace maid for him, he was well fed and served throughout the whole process.
But it would be very unpleasant to have him go to jail!
As a human being in two lifetimes, this is my first experience of being in prison.
"Your Majesty is here!"
Suddenly, the eunuch's shouting voice came from outside the prison, which was very loud.
The emperor appears with his own sound system.
"Long live your Majesty! Long live your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! The common people have been wronged!"
"Your Majesty, I was wronged too! Please reiterate, Your Majesty!"
When Emperor Zhou Ren entered the prison, the prisoners knelt down to greet him and began to cry out for injustice.
The emperor comes to Tianlao in person, this is their only chance to survive!
Normally the emperor would not come to a place like Tianlao.
"Shut up! Don't disturb His Majesty!"
The guardsmen came over, drew their swords, and drove the yelling prisoners in.
Emperor Zhou Ren looked at the dirty and messy environment around him and couldn't help but frown slightly.
She also felt a little unfair to Wu Zhongxian.
After all, Wu Zhongxian was working for him.
As a result, now I want Wu Zhongxian to spend time in jail.
Emperor Zhou Ren thought about it and wanted to praise Wu Zhongxian when he saw him later.
For example, Wu Aichen has wronged you! Although the environment in Tianlao is poor, I hope you can overcome the hardship! I will never forget it in the future...
Emperor Zhou Ren was well prepared and prepared to praise and reward the aggrieved Wu Zhongxian.
Finally, when he turned a corner and saw Wu Zhongxian in the prison, he was stunned.
The words that came to my mouth were forced to hold back!
Only Wu Zhongxian was seen, enjoying the services of four maids.
There was a large long table in the originally empty cell.
It is filled with fresh delicacies and fruits.
Emperor Zhou Ren couldn't help but twitch the corners of his eyes.
It seems that Wu Zhongxian is not aggrieved at all!
At this time, Wu Zhongxian seemed to have just seen Emperor Zhou Ren, and quickly pushed the palace maid away and stood up.
"Welcome Your Majesty!"
Wu Zhongxian bowed and saluted.
He doesn't need to kneel down.
"Wu Aichen, I've really wronged you!"
Emperor Zhou Ren did not ask Wu Zhongxian to excuse himself, but looked at the back of his head and said these words.
I feel so wronged!
"For Your Majesty, I am willing to suffer!"
Wu Zhongxian speaks righteously!
Fortunately, Emperor Zhou Ren controlled his emotions well, otherwise he would have rolled his eyes speechlessly.
Just listening to Wu Zhongxian's words, one would really think that he had suffered a lot for the emperor.
Eat good wine and good food, be served by someone, and still say you feel wronged!
Why didn't she realize that Wu Zhongxian had such a..."cute" side before?
No wonder his father liked him.
Emperor Zhou Rendi paused, adjusted his mood, and said calmly: "Eunuch Wu, you have a good rest here for the next few days. I will arrange for you to go out after a while."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Although Emperor Zhou Ren was a little amused by Wu Zhongxian's behavior, he did not punish him.
After all, Wu Zhongxian is indeed serving himself wholeheartedly.
Before leaving, Emperor Zhou Ren specially called the Tianlao Supervisor to give him a hint.
Naturally, the Tianlao Supervisor did not dare to disobey the emperor's order.
From the very beginning when he saw Wu Zhongxian entering the prison with a bunch of maids, the supervisor knew that this was not a prisoner he could control.
Of course, the reason that most made the supervisor realize that he had no right to supervise Wu Zhongxian was the Emperor's Sword on the latter's waist.
Emperor's Sword!
Even in the prison, he can kill people at will.
He dare not take care of it!
In this way, Wu Zhongxian lived a life of humiliation in the prison.
…
"Eunuch Wu, Eunuch Wu, you must help me! I am really unjust! It's all the fault of that bastard King Zhou Yang! Not only did he occupy the good land of Xiaomin's family, he also falsely accused Xiaomin's son of treason! Xiaomin's son is a
You fool, you can’t rebel even if you want to!”
"Eunuch Wu, the common people are also wronged!"
"And that Minister of Justice! That fucker is the one who is corrupt and perverts the law!!"
Two days later, when the Superintendent walked into the sky jail again, he saw a group of death row inmates asking Wu Zhongxian for help.
What's more, some people started to feel aggrieved while talking and burst into tears!
These prisoners also knew that Wu Zhongxian's identity was not simple, so they asked him for help.
Wu Zhongxian probably also listened to the opinions of these prisoners.
It’s not that Wu Zhongxian is so kind.
However, the words of these prisoners gave him a reason to kill them!
Aren’t these prisoners just witnesses?
"Wang Er, you said that the Minister of Punishment was corrupt and perverted the law? Is there any evidence?"
Wu Zhongxian looked at the dirty young man in the prison opposite, wearing handcuffs and leg irons.
It was this Wang Er who had been testifying against the Minister of Punishment.
