In fact, Emperor Tianqi is still a little guilty.

Because Zhang Ruitu is calm and composed, he has a good image in everyone's mind, not to mention that he is a Grand Secretary of the Cabinet.

It is impossible for the court to accuse a Grand Secretary of the Cabinet of the Rebellion for no reason.

But Zhang Jingyi looked like he was determined to win, and finally gave Emperor Tianqi a confidence.

Emperor Tianqi thought to himself, in fact, just ask in the palace, why do you need to mobilize troops and run to the prison?

However... when we arrived at the prison, we found that it was crowded. The military officers we caught last night, the civil officials we caught today, and some newly arrested people, many lieutenants and cavalrymen who came in and out after confessing.

On the outside, the teaching team surrounded the place.

As soon as Emperor Tianqi arrived, Deng Jian, who was so busy that he came to see him.

When Huang Liji was shocked when he saw this attitude.

What happened last night was so big?

Everyone got out of the car sedan.

Immediately, Zhang Jingyi said to Zhang Ruitu without hesitation: "Mr. Zhang, please follow me."

Zhang Ruitu smiled and nodded calmly and said, "I'm working hard."

He nodded freely and was very at odds with each other. So the person who originally wanted to say a few words for him was now silent.

Zhang Jingyi immediately took him to the interrogation room.

The others were about to go in, Zhang Jing said with a stern face: "Go to the next door."

After saying that, he winked at Deng Jian.

Deng Jian nodded.

It led everyone to the next door.

Zhang Jingyi and Zhang Ruitu entered the interrogation room.

Candles were lit in the interrogation room, but they were still dark.

Zhang Jing asked Zhang Ruitu to sit down and said with a smile: "Do you want to drink tea?"

Zhang Ruitu shook his head: "No need, Xinxian Marquis. When the old lady is here, you can say anything. Anyone who can help Xinxian Marquis will be happy to help."

Zhang Jingyi said straightforwardly: "What's your relationship with Fan Yong?"

Zhang Ruitu said with a confused look on his face: "Fan Yongdou? This person... has never heard of."

Zhang Jingyi said again: "What about Zhang Sizhi, the Right Minister of the Ministry of War?"

Zhang Ruitu said: "I have heard of this person."

"Just heard it?"

Zhang Ruitu said confidently: "Yes, I just heard that he is in the Ministry of War. In the cabinet, the six affairs that the Grand Secretary should manage should be managed by, but in fact, each has his own responsibilities. For example, I have more management of the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Works. The Ministry of War... is the responsibility of Sun Gong. Therefore, Zhang Sizhi, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of War, knows him, but he doesn't have much contact."

Zhang Jingyi said: "What about Chen Daowen, the head of the Ministry of Rites?"

Zhang Ruitu said: "This person... has no impression."

"Where is Zhu Wu?"

"This name... can be said to have never heard of it." Zhang Ruitu smiled.

Zhang Jing kept staring at him and said, "But... they all said they recognized you."

Zhang Jingyi stared at Zhang Ruitu, and after saying this, the interrogation room fell into a dead silence.

Zhang Ruitu also fell silent.

Zhang Jing said again: "Not only do they recognize you, but they also said with confidence that you also participated in the rebellion last night. You asked Chen Daowen and Zhang Sizhi to enter the palace to meet last night, and asked Zhu Wu and others to cause trouble outside, trying to let the rioters take action first and then report to control the capital. Chen Daowen and others forced the palace to Your Majesty first. They said that after the rioters outside killed me, in the daytime, he would come forward again and ask Your Majesty to appease the rebels. When you come forward, all officials will follow. At that time... it will not only Zhang Sizhi people, but also civil and military officials in the court, and advise Your Majesty to appease the rebels."

Zhang Ruitu smiled and said, "I said that I am not familiar with them."

"I just ask you, is this your plan? You didn't enter the palace last night because you have to advance layer by layer. Let Zhang Sizhi and others try the waters first. If Your Majesty refuses, you can increase your bids layer by layer."

Zhang Ruitu said: "No."

"You don't recognize it?"

Zhang Ruitu said: "How can I recognize the erroneous things?"

"So that..." Zhang Jingyi said: "You want to leave it all out."

Zhang Ruitu sighed and said, "It's not that I want to leave everything alone, it's really... This matter has a lot to do. If it's an ordinary thing, it would be okay to give Xinxian Hou a convenience..."

Zhang Jingyi also sighed and said, "It seems that you won't cry after seeing the coffin."

Zhang Ruitu continued to remain silent.

However, the people in the interrogation room next door listened to these words and many of them were anxious.

Zhang Jingyi couldn't ask, but he couldn't ask. He was a grand cabinet minister, but he even said in person that he would not cry if he didn't see the coffin.

Emperor Tianqi looked very calm. He only had one thought now, which was to eliminate the chaos.

Besides, he never believed that Zhang Jingyi would not do something unsure!

...

At this moment, Zhang Jing looked at Zhang Ruitu and said, "If you don't say it now, you actually know that you can't escape it in the end. So many people admit that this matter is related to you. Do you still want to deny it now?"

As he said that, Zhang Jing paused before saying, "Now, confess his guilt and confess his guilt to Fan Yongdou and others, then there will be a chance! Actually... I naturally know that you might not have wanted to collude with people like Fan Yongdou at the beginning. What are people like Fan Yongdou? Just a businessman!"

"You are a noble and noble person, but you are just confused for a while. I accidentally... After getting some of their things, I have provided them with some convenience. This is understandable. Which civil and military ministers of the Ming Dynasty have never received Bingjing or Tan Jing? The only difference is that Fan Yongdou and the others gave me more generously. I think you didn't know that Fan Yongdou was actually doing a beheading business."

Zhang Ruitu had a cold face and still said nothing.

Zhang Jingyi continued: "But when you learn that they colluded with the Jiannu people and learned that they had done dirty things, you actually regret it. Because after doing some things, it will be difficult to get out of it. Once Fan Yongdou and others are treated as guilty of rebellion, you can't leave it alone. So you have to take risks for them. Right?"

Zhang Ruitu still sat steadily.

"Actually, the many people I caught were like this last night. They walked to the abyss step by step, and finally had no way to go. And now, do you still want to shelter them? You can't escape if you continue to shelter like this."

Zhang Ruitu finally spoke, "I don't know what you are talking about."

This was not anxious or panic. Zhang Ruitu was still calm and composed. He obviously knew that Zhang Jing wanted to confess his guilt and punish him by relying on a few words. This was a whim.

"Is that?" Zhang Jingyi's expression changed at this moment, and he sneered: "At this point today, you still want to deny it, so don't blame me Zhang Jingyi for being ruthless."

Then, Zhang Jing pointed to a stick of incense in the interrogation room: "Did you see this incense? Do you know what will happen if the incense is burned out?"

"I don't want to know."

Zhang Jing said, "A team of lieutenants rushed to your mansion. What they were holding were some gadgets. But you have seen the power of this gadget. Last night, I'm afraid you didn't have a good sleep. If you don't say it after the incense burns out, they will take action. Since you are not fast, then... I'm not in a hurry, we can wait slowly."

"What do you mean?" Zhang Ruitu finally couldn't sit still and glared at Zhang Jingyi: "What do you want to do?"

"I don't want to do anything."

Zhang Ruitu's voice gradually increased: "I am the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet. Do you dare to treat my husband's family like this?"

Zhang Jingyi's face was very cold, and suddenly his face became ferocious: "What's there to be afraid of? If I, Zhang Jingyi, dare not do such a thing, how could I have today? Is there still fewer people in my hands? Is there a shortage of thirty-nine people in your family?"

Thirty-nine...

Zhang Ruitu suddenly felt dizzy.

His family is indeed thirty-nine.

The arrangement is clear.

"I can try you slowly." Zhang Jing said: "Anyway, you will confess sooner or later. Do you know why the rioters were defeated immediately as soon as they entered the city? Do you know why countless explosions were accurately bombed in the mansions of these rioters last night? Do you think that this was a random bomb?"

"To be honest, you fought last night and it was a trap I set. The reason why I kept your family of thirty-nine is not because you hid it well, nor because you are a Grand Secretary of the Cabinet. But now I will give you a chance to correct yourself and a chance to die better. If you want to miss this God-given opportunity, that's fine."

Zhang Jing smiled and said, "I can wait."

Zhang Jing had a smile on her face, but she was extremely cold.

Next, Zhang Ruitu began to sit and lie down a little, and he kept looking up at the burning fragrance that had been nearly half burning.

Next door, someone felt that this was a bit over and wanted to say something.

However, Emperor Tianqi had a gloomy face and did not say a word, but he did not dare to act rashly.

...

Zhang Jing hugged her hands and looked at Zhang Ruitu calmly.

Zhang Ruitu was getting more and more uneasy.

He said, "You are framed by loyalty."

Zhang Jing smiled back with one smile.

Zhang Ruitu said: "You...you have to be careful about the consequences..."

Zhang Jingyi said: "It seems that there is almost no time, since that's the case..."

Zhang Ruitu gritted his teeth and said, "Are you going to force me to death?"
