Although Dongchang and Jinyiwei are two institutions.

But in many cases, the power of the East Factory is greater than that of the Jinyiwei.

The Jinyiwei became the de facto subordinate organization of the East Factory.

Because the East Factory often directly uses the Jinyiwei people to form its own staff, and even directly uses the Jinyiwei's Pacification Department to interrogate the arrested criminals.

In addition, the relationship between the eunuchs in the East Factory and the emperor was closer than that of the commander of the Jinyiwei and the emperor.

This led to many officials of the Jinyiwei becoming subordinates of the Dongchang Factory Supervisor.

For example, Xu Xianchun is the commander-in-chief of the Jinyiwei, but because many of the Jinyiwei official titles in the Ming Dynasty were empty, Xu Xianchun's actual position was the head of the Dongchang, who was responsible for the executive work of the Dongchang.

Therefore, although Xu Xianchun was a senior official of the Jinyiwei, he was the second-ranked figure in the East Factory.

Naturally, the Jinyiwei became a subordinate organization of the Dongchang.

Xu Xianchun directly arrested Feng Sanyuan in the prison of Jinyiwei.

The East Factory now does not have its own prison, so the East Factory is a prison that uses both the Jinyiwei and the Jinyiwei.

The prison of Jinyiwei is called the imperial prison and has always been a place where all kinds of important criminals are interrogated.

Of course, there have been imperial prisons throughout the dynasties. As the name suggests, the imperial prison is a prison that detains criminal officials who were punished by the emperor.

But in the Ming Dynasty, the imperial prison became the exclusive title of Jinyiwei Prison.

As soon as Feng Sanyuan arrived at the imperial prison, he was frightened by the dark and cold environment inside. He felt as if he had entered the gate of hell.

For a moment, when Feng Sanyuan accidentally saw some criminals in the prison with disheveled heads and faces as haggard as ghosts, he became even more frightened.

The dazzling array of torture instruments such as tiger benches, iron beds, sticks, brain clamps, and horse sticks made Feng Sanyuan even more afraid.

Therefore, when Feng Sanyuan was taken to the interrogation office to tie it to the pillar, Feng Sanyuan instinctively struggled and shouted: "What are you doing? How can you treat me like this? I want to see the emperor and impeach you! You are blundering the law, you are torture loyal ministers!"

Wei Zhongxian walked in at this time, sat on a grand stern chair moved from the Jinyiwei official school, and quietly looked at Feng Sanyuan.

Wei Zhongxian was also looking at these torture instruments, but after seeing these torture instruments, he felt different from Feng Sanyuan. He was as happy as seeing these torture instruments, and felt that he had not let down his burdens for so many years.

"Feng Sanyuan, our family already has conclusive evidence that you are suspected of making friends with eunuchs, accepting bribes, and frameing important officials of the court. You should bring it to yourself as it is, and you should avoid the pain of punishment, otherwise don't blame our family for being polite!"

Wei Zhongxian asked.

Feng Sanyuan looked at Wei Zhongxian without saying anything, thinking, "This eunuch actually said that he had made friends with eunuchs, and that he had framed important officials, and he had only impeached Xiong Tingbi recently. Could it be that this person was for Xiong Tingbi? But Dongchang Factory was Wang An's person, Wang Wenyan was Wang An's disciple, and Wang Wenyan asked him to impeach Xiong Tingbi. The people of Dongchang would not stand up for Xiong Tingbi because of his impeachment of Xiong Tingbi. In this way, it was only Dongchang who had changed his person!"

When Feng Sanyuan thought of this, he raised his head and said: "I have not made friends with the eunuch, nor have I accepted bribes! Whoever I am impeached for is public rather than self-interest? You are colluding with me and want to kill me, but I will not let you succeed!"

Wei Zhongxian just smiled slightly and waved his hand: "Testral!"

With the order of Wei Zhongxian, a Jinyiwei Shiqi took out the red-hot soldering iron from the stove and pressed it directly on Feng Sanyuan's stomach.

Suddenly, Feng Sanyuan's clothes were burned and even the meat was burned, and there was even a sizzling sound of fat refining oil.

"ah!"

Feng Sanyuan screamed in pain because of this, and sweat broke out on his forehead.

Before Wei Zhongxian could ask, Feng Sanyuan hurriedly said in a trembling voice: "I'll do it, I'll do it!"

Seeing this, Wei Zhongxian stopped the Jinyiwei Tiqi.

Feng Sanyuan took a breath and said, "I took Wang Wenyan's money and he asked me to impeach Xiong Tingbi, but I really didn't hand over the eunuch!"

Wei Zhongxian was naturally dissatisfied with the confession and said, "If you don't tell the truth, don't blame our factory for being rude to you, continue to be punished!"

So, the Jinyiwei Tiqi began to continue to punish Feng Sanyuan.

Feng Sanyuan screamed again and cried: "No! No! I'll do it, I'll do it, I'll do it, I'll remember it, I'll get a friend of the eunuch, I'll get a friend of the ex-factory!"

Feng Sanyuan was not a fool either. When he heard the eunuch in front of him suddenly claiming to be his factory, he was even more sure that the Dongchang had changed. The eunuch in front of him insisted on confirming that he had committed a lawsuit with the eunuch and was obviously accusing his ex-boy.

So, Feng Sanyuan said directly that he had made a deal with his ex-factory manager.

Wei Zhongxian was very satisfied, so he asked the Jinyiwei to stop using torture and asked Feng Sanyuan: "How did you get along with the Wei Dynasty?"

Feng Sanyuan replied panting: "I met him through the Secretariat's servant Wang Wenyan, and he also received Wang Wenyan's silver! Wang Wenyan asked him to go to the emperor and Xiong Tingbi's slander."

After hearing this, Wei Zhongxian immediately ordered: "Tell me what he confesses and let him write it down. Our family will submit it to the emperor overnight!"

...

Zhu Youxiao has been waiting for Wei Zhongxian to bring him news about the interrogation of Feng Sanyuan.

Because Zhu Youxiao believes that the nine thousand-year-old Wei Zhongxian, who was powerful in history, was definitely not an ordinary person. He could do what he wanted for himself, and his efficiency would not be slow.

Zhu Youxiao knew that the fundamental reason for the decline of the Ming Dynasty was the lack of money.

After all, raising royal family and vassals requires money, and protecting against Liaodong Jiannu, and helping more and more refugees also require money.

Even making the Ming Dynasty strong enough and even compete for the world in the future requires money to train troops and build ships.

Therefore, Zhu Youxiao now wants to make money.

And how to make money the most efficient?

Of course it was a house search!

Zhu Youxiao knew that although the state fiscal revenue of the Ming Dynasty was very scarce, the tax on the first year of Taichang was only more than four million taels of silver, but the ruling class was very rich.

Whether it is the royal family and the vassal kings or the literati, they are all rich.

After the great geographical discovery, global trade officially began, and the Ming Dynasty, which was still at the forefront of the world's productivity, absorbed a large amount of wealth from all over the world through global trade, causing the gold and silver plunders of early Western colonists such as Spain and the Netherlands to flow to the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, no one can tell how much wealth there was among the people of the Ming Dynasty.

As far as Zhu Youxiao knows, Zheng Zhilong, who was a pirate, earned more than 20 million taels of silver every year during the Chongzhen period because of the maritime trade.

Because of this, Zhu Youxiao has always wanted to accumulate the money of these powerful officials in the crime by chasing their homes so as to make greater use of them.

Zhu Youxiao had long decided secretly that no matter who it was in the future, he would have to search his home even if he was not killed.

But at the beginning, Zhu Youxiao had no one to search his house.

Moreover, Zhu Youxiao also remembers that Yang Lian and Wei Dazhong were indeed honest officials in history.

Therefore, Zhu Youxiao did not search Yang Lian and Wei Dazhong's house.

But now that Zhu Youxiao has launched Wei Zhongxian, there are people who searched his house for him. Therefore, Zhu Youxiao made up his mind to confiscate Feng Sanyuan, who impeached Xiong Tingbi, first, and before the house was raided, he naturally convicted Feng Sanyuan.

Zhu Youxiao believed that Wei Zhongxian would charge Feng Sanyuan.

If Wei Zhongxian had no such ability, he would not be worthy of being in power in the future.

"Emperor! I found out that Feng Sanyuan himself admitted it. He took the money from the Secretariat's servant Wang Wenyan. It was Wang Wenyan who asked him to impeach and accused Xiong Tingbi. Wang Wenyan also colluded with the Wei Dynasty and asked the Wei Dynasty to advance Xiong Tingbi's slander in front of you, Emperor, and accused Xiong Tingbi of embezzling Liao pay!"
