"Don't calm down!" Zhang Jing struggled desperately, knocking his head bleeding, and cried and said, "I will never deceive the emperor! In fact, there are many things that can be heard, and I have not written up the information that the evidence is not established..."

OK, this is not the full version of feelings.

"Don't drag it out!" Wanli said coldly.

Before Eunuch Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, he heard the emperor gritting his teeth and saying, "Just be in front of me! This is how to relieve his hatred!"

OK, just hearing the sound can’t help but feel regret.

The eunuch then took a piece of felt, put it under Zhang Jing's body, held his hands and feet, and then tightly stuffed his mouth with a wet linen cloth.

Amabuli secretly soaked anesthetics. Wanli blamed the palace servants all day long, but he didn't know how many eunuchs and palace maids had killed. He knew how much force the board had put on. So the eunuchs and eunuchs did not dare to let go, so he could only use this method to relieve the pain of the factory.

Then he took off his cotton pants and exposed two scarred buttocks.

The two strong eunuchs then swung the chestnut sticks that were cut into hammers, and began to swing the hammer at fifty or eighty... uh, hit the board.

After a few strokes, Zhang Jing whined and twisted into a trickle, with blood marks on his butt.

Wanli stood on the Your Highness with his hands behind his back, and was sentenced to prison in person. After dozens of strokes, Zhang Jing's ass blossomed. He then raised his hand and the sound of abruptly stopped.

"It's time to tell the truth now?" Wanli asked coldly.

"The emperor beat me to death, and what I presented it to me is the truth..." Zhang Jing reluctantly raised his eyelids and said in a weak manner: "The East Factory has been planning for two years and has installed countless secret stakes overseas. Then he sent two men to collect the news, because he was afraid that they would come back to fool him. At first, I didn't believe it, but after more than a dozen men came back, they all spoke in a word, and they were all in a daze and scared their souls. The emperor could summon them to confront each other, and knew that there was no exaggeration to me..."

After saying that, he fainted wisely.

The eunuch looked at Wanli, meaning that he would still be able to fight?

Wanli waved his hand irritably, and the eunuchs were as if they were granted a general amnesty. They quickly lifted the felt and carefully pulled down the worst factory in history.

Zhang Hong knelt down silently and picked up paper all over the floor.

"Do you believe it?" Wanli asked quietly.

"I heard it at first, it's really incredible." Zhang Hong lowered his head and cleaned up while carefully: "I guess those guys have exaggerated things to show their merits. But..."

As he said that, he looked up slightly and looked at Wanli's face.

"It's all done, 'but' is the key point." The emperor sneered, sat on the steps, looking at Zhang Jing who was being carried out outside the layers of curtains with a blank look.

"Why, do you feel sorry for your godson?"

"I dare not, but I just think that although the people outside say too much, they are groundless and have no reason. There is a saying in my hometown that is to be careful not to be afraid of too much." Zhang Hong crawled at Wanli's feet and kowtowed heavily:

"So the old slave dares to think that it will never be wrong to prevent problems before they happen, the emperor."

Wanli snorted but did not make a fuss. The reason is very simple. Even if the Dongchang really exaggerates, even if the report is 10% true, his country is in danger of changing hands.

"This willow, a giant beast like a candle dragon, wasn't it generated day and night, right? Then why didn't anyone tell me before?"

"I knew before that the Jiangnan Group was very strong, rich enough to rival a country, and their fleets were all above the world." Zhang Hong smiled bitterly: "It's just that they have always been very cunning, and they were trapped inside and out. Before, there were two prime ministers as their backers. Who dared to rashly accuse them without conclusive evidence?"

"Then was the establishment of the Dongchang Hutong just to prevent problems? What did they do? Why did they report it until now?" In fact, Wanli was unreasonable. He was not unaware of the fire in Dongchang Hutong in the 15th year of Wanli. He also knew that Zhang Jing investigated Jiangnan Group.

But the emperor wanted to turn the blame, how could Zhang Hong point it out? He had to push it to Feng Bao, who had already become a dead bone in the tomb, saying that Feng Bao was in charge of the East Factory before, and he covered Zhao Hao, so of course the palace was dark. When Zhang Jing took over the East Factory, wouldn't he start to investigate the Jiangnan Group with all his strength when he was in trouble?

Zhang Hong spoke slowly, but every sentence was reasonable and very convincing, and he deserved to be the "internal minister".

Wanli was silent for a while, covered her face in depression, and suddenly choked and said, "I still don't want to believe it..."

Actually, I can’t believe it. So Master Xu’s mind is the king!

Zhang Hong dared not say anything anymore. Being with the king is like a tiger. If he doesn't have a good grasp of his position, he will inevitably follow Zhang Jing's footsteps.

"You said, so many ministers, who are desperate to fight for the country's foundation, and are always loyal to the emperor and patriotism, why don't you remind me?"

Zhang Hongxin said that it is difficult for civil servants to be loyal to the emperor after Yu Qian and Zhang Juzheng. As for the country's foundation, who is the final decision, and what is the future is to get away from another Wanli after Wanli...

Of course, he didn't dare to say these words.

"There are those generals, are they really bribed by Zhao Hao?" Wanli finally remembered that he was not only in front of him, but also in the distance.

"I really don't know this old slave." Zhang Hong shook his head and sighed.

"Are I really a lonely man?" Wanli giggled with a creepy expression, looked straight at Zhang Hong and said, "You can't be reliable, right?"

"Your Majesty, you can't pour dirty water into the children!" Zhang Hong was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly leaned over and kowtowed, crying: "The roots of us who have no roots are in the emperor, and we are not as good as those of the emperor. You must never doubt the loyalty of our servants!"

Wanli stared at Zhang Hong's old face full of tears, and after a while, he raised his head and sighed: "Yes, only you slaves are grasshoppers on the same rope as me."

"Yes, my servants are the slaves of the emperor, so life and death are all in the mind of the emperor." Zhang Hong nodded vigorously and said, "Of course, there are those who are not upright in their minds, such as Liu Jin from Zhengde Dynasty. No matter how arrogant he is, the emperor can slap him with just one note. And the old slave dares to say that Liu Jin is also loyal to Emperor Wuzong."

The old eunuch said with a heart-warming voice: "If Liu Jin was there, Wu Zong would not have fallen into the water!"

"Stop talking!" Wanli was about to scold him. Can you, a dead eunuch, say such a thing?

But then I thought about it and saw that this was all about my neck, so what else should I worry about. I smiled sadly and said, "Open a bottle of soda for me."

Zhang Hong quickly opened a wooden box, took out a bottle of iced happy water from the thick brocade quilt, pulled out the block with a pop, and poured it into a glass for the emperor.

"You keep talking." Wanli took a sip of happy water and stimulated his taste buds and spirit.

"The old slave risked his life to make a fuss. The reason why the situation today is that the late emperor is too close to the civil officials and listens to Gao Gong's everything. As a result, he was coaxed by the civil officials and withdrew the eunuchs guarding the army and the eunuchs in various places, and even the eunuchs in the camps in the three major battalions were cancelled! All of us close ministers, such as the emperor, were guarded against us, and they were guarded against thieves. Once they left the capital, they would be reported! How can we guard the emperor?!"

As the leader of the eunuch, Zhang Hong always seeks benefits for 30,000 eunuchs no matter when. He most despises Feng Bao, who is the kind of person who pleases foreign ministers for a false reputation and does not fight for the inner court in the slightest way.

I have to say that he was too sure of this opportunity. It happened that Emperor Wanli had no choice but to place his hope on them.

Sure enough, Wanli agreed with his words and said, "It's really a mistake to withdraw."

He naturally knew that in order to check and balance the civil servant group, Emperor Xuande broke the ancestral system of "eunuchs are not allowed to read and read" and set up an internal book hall to teach eunuchs to read and read. He also granted the power of red to the Lijian, cultivated them to become the emperor's wings and claws, and checked and balanced the civil servant group headed by the cabinet.

In addition, Emperor Xuande followed the important tasks of Chengzuye's appointment of eunuchs to take on missions, specializing in expeditions, military supervision, division of towns, and intelligence. He also set up guards in important places such as the 13 provinces in the nine borders and the Chaoguan Municipal Bureau, and the eunuchs were in charge, representing the emperor to monitor the every move of civil officials and military generals.

If these guards and the eunuchs in the military supervisors were there, how could he have no idea about the expansion of the Jiangnan Group just because Feng Bao was stingy?

In that case, Feng Bao would not dare to deceive the heavens!

"Oh, it's such a scam!" Wanli was so angry that he poured another mouthful of happy water. Thinking that this was also produced by Jiangnan Group, he threw it hard towards the warm cage. The cup was smashed and smashed, and the soda stinged and turned into caramel.

"Fortunately, I have been staunch in the past few years and have resumed my inner sanity. Now there are about 3,000 guards in Jingjun, otherwise I will be uneasy when I sleep!" Wanli felt glad again, it was a blessing in disgrace.

"Not only Jingjun, but also 30,000 eunuchs will swear to defend the emperor to the death!" Zhang Hong said in a deep voice.

"Well. Now the most urgent task is to quickly restore the garrison and the eunuchs in the military, watch the civil and military officials, and prevent them from being involved with the Jiangnan Group!" Wanli said, gritting his teeth and saying, "No, we must capture the military and political power so that I can clean up them all!"

"The Emperor is wise, this is the solution to the root cause." Zhang Hong nodded and said, "It's just that Zhao Hao and Jiangnan Group don't know yet. We already know their true situation and think the Emperor is still in the dark. If you startle the enemy at this time, will they be anxious in advance?"

"Well, what you said makes sense." Wanli nodded slightly, thought for a moment, and slapped his thighs and said, "Well, isn't the Ministry of Revenue always crying poor? Then I sent the internal supervisor to various places to check taxes and supervise the mining industry, and see why the commercial tax and mining tax can't be collected. Is this reasonable?!"

"Is it true to guard the military in the name of the mining tax envoy?" Zhang Hong's eyes lit up and he praised: "The emperor is so wise. As expected, nothing can be hindered!"
