Chapter 234: Get the navigation chart, and all nations will come to dominate the world!

After receiving the order, the factory guard continued to light the next burning platform without any emotion.

Liu Daxia's youngest son was instantly swallowed up by the fire.

And the rest of the burning platform is still very long...very long...

When the flame ignited for the third time, when the miserable cry of pain sounded for the third time, when the voice begging for mercy echoed for the third time...

Liu Daxia's heart finally collapsed!

"Your Majesty! Stop burning it! I'll hand it over! Can't I hand it over?!"

Liu Daxia's reaction made Zhu Youtang's lips curl up slightly, and he nodded slightly to the factory guards off the field.

The factory guards immediately understood what Zhu Youtang meant, and immediately made a quick slash through the flames.

Let the young son of Liu Daxia, who was burned by the fire, fall to the ground in an instant, giving him a great pleasure.

The head of Liu Daxia's youngest son rolled to Liu Daxia's feet.

Liu Daxia picked up his youngest son's head and held it in his arms, wailing incessantly.

Zhu Youtang stared at Liu Daxia with burning eyes: "Tell me! Where did you hide the navigation chart!"

The next moment, all the southern officials in the audience glared at Liu Daxia's back.

They gritted their teeth, widened their eyes, and cursed Liu Daxia crazily in their hearts!

Don't tell His Majesty! Don't tell His Majesty!

By letting His Majesty get the navigational charts, hundreds of years of hard work by the southern nobles will be in vain!

Liu Daxia held the head of his youngest son, looking decadent and regretful.

His lips quivered, and he let out a long sigh.

"Zheng He's navigation chart... is in the rockery behind Changping Villa."

"The rockery is hollow inside, and there is a wooden box inside. The navigation chart is hidden in the wooden box..."

When Liu Daxia said these words, he seemed to have lost all his strength and sat slumped on the ground.

The eyes of the southern civil servants behind him were like actual knives, falling on Liu Daxia, wanting to cut him into pieces!

Zhu Youtang felt excited, clenched his fists involuntarily, and immediately looked down at the Jin Yiwei commander Mou Bin.

"Mo Bin, go get it for me immediately!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

After Mu Bin accepted the order, he did not dare to delay, and quickly led dozens of Jinyi guards to personally go to Liu Daxia's annex in Changping to get the navigation chart.

At the same time, Zhu Youtang waved his hand downwards: "Liu Daxia and his family members will be deferred to execution and will wait for their fate."

"Move on to the next one."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

After receiving the order, the factory guards took all the remaining family members of Liu Daxia from the burning platform.

Together with Liu Daxia, he was escorted aside to wait for Zhu Youtang to continue interrogation.

At the same time, Fei Ju also began to think about the crime of the next official.

"Xie Qian, a bachelor of Dongge University, formed a party for personal gain, abused his power, participated in a coup, and committed treason!"

The factory guard dragged Xie Qian to the front, but Xie Qian kept trembling and lowered his head, not daring to raise his head and look directly into Zhu Youtang's eyes.

He felt guilty!

Zhu Youtang looked down at Xie Qian, with mixed feelings in his heart, and the pain of betrayal in his eyes.

Xie Qian was previously a lecturer at the Hanlin Academy, and was Zhu Youtang's teacher when he was in the East Palace.

Last year, after Zhu Youtang completed cleaning up the cabinet ministers of Hua Dynasty, he personally promoted Xie Qian from the Hanlin Academy directly to his cabinet.

This behavior has fully demonstrated his trust in Xie Qian.

But Xie Qian used his participation in the coup and conspiracy to repay Zhu Youtang's trust in him!

Facing the traitor, Zhu Youtang hated him so much that he would never be merciful!

"Xie Qian was sawn to death, the three Yi tribes!"

Sawing is also an extremely cruel form of torture.

That is to use a red-hot iron saw to saw people alive.

And instead of just sawing off the head, they started from the limbs and sawed the person into pieces.

The level of pain and tragic death are comparable to those of Lingchi and Peeling.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

No matter how cruel the criminal law is, the executioners of the Ministry of Punishment are very proficient in it.

Because these tortures were not made up by Zhu Youtang himself.

Instead, it was recorded in the "Imperial Imperial Order" that torture was widely implemented during the Hongwu period.

After the factory guards tied Xie Qian's trembling body to the execution platform,

The executioner from the Ministry of Justice on the side had already put a big iron saw on the fire and it was burning red.

The executioner took an iron saw and cut off Xie Qian's ankles first.

When the execution began, Xie Qian's screams never stopped.

That terrifying and horrifying sound makes people feel sour!

The officials in Chengtianmen Square were panic-stricken and extremely fearful!

At the same time, Xie Qian's family members in the capital were also executed by the factory guards one after another.

Seeing two pavilion elders and a minister being tortured inhumanely, even Fei Ju, who was used to torture, couldn't help but shudder.

But the next moment, he continued to abide by his duties and informed the next official of the crime.

"Cai Zhen, the prince-in-law and the commander of the Beijing Guard Command, turned against the enemy, led his army to surrender, participated in the coup, and committed treason!"

Immediately afterwards, the factory guard also dragged Cai Zhen to the front.

But unlike the previous officials, this time Cai Zhen's family members were extremely rare.

There are only Cai Zhen's parents, younger brother, and his sister-in-law's family, a handful of them. As for the other civil servants, who has a family of more than ten or twenty people?

Compared with others, Cai Zhen's family members are missing by more than half.

This is because Cai Zhen's wife is Zhu Youtang's biological aunt and the biological daughter of Emperor Yingzong, Princess Chun'an!

The family members arrested by the Jin Yiwei only dared to arrest Cai Zhen's parents and younger brothers. They did not dare to touch Princess Chun'an, nor did they dare to touch Cai Zhen's children.

When Zhu Youtang left the capital, he specifically handed over the defense of the capital to his uncle.

This shows that in Zhu Youtang's heart, Cai Zhen is a trustworthy candidate.

But in the face of power and pressure, his uncle had no principles at all and immediately defected in the face of battle.

Zhu Youtang looked at Cai Zhen with eyes full of contempt and disgust.

"The Cai family will be executed!"

"The children's surname will be changed to Zhu, and they will be raised by Princess Chun'an. They will not be granted the title of any lord!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

After the factory guard received the order, the execution began immediately.

Of course, the execution of all the families here is limited to those named Cai.

On Princess Chun'an's side, no one would trouble her.

When Cai Zhen heard that Zhu Youtang was going to kill everyone in his family, he was so anxious that he was sweating profusely and his tears couldn't stop falling.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty, please spare your life!"

"Your Majesty, I am the emperor's consort and your biological uncle!"

"I was just confused for a moment. This is all due to Yu Shen, a rebellious minister and traitor!"

"Your Majesty! Please spare my life!"

"If you kill me, Princess Chun'an will not forgive you!"

"..."

While Cai Zhen was shouting, his head was beheaded by a factory guard.

Now Zhu Youtang can even kill his own brother.

What's more, he's just an uncle?

After killing Cai Zhen, Cai Zhen’s parents and younger brother were followed immediately...

After dealing with Cai Zhen, Zhu Youtang immediately sentenced other high-ranking officials in the DPRK who participated in the mutiny to death one by one.

These officials are basically first- and second-rank officials in the court and above. They hold high positions and are extremely evil in nature!

Among these officials, southern officials are the worst!

All the southern officials who had advocated moving the capital were massacred by Zhu Youtang, leaving no one alive!

Officials sentenced to death were executed one by one in front of Chengtian Gate.

Outside Chengtian Gate, it seems to have become a real Abi Hell, where any torture that humans can imagine is performed here.

The shrill cries were like howls from hell, making people's hair stand on end.

The blood flowing everywhere and the fishy smell filling the air made all the officials waiting to be sentenced terrified! Extremely afraid and extremely regretful!

At this moment, Mou Bin, who was ordered to go to Changping to retrieve the navigation chart, came to Chengtianmen on a horse, covered with dust!

"Report!"

"Your Majesty, I humbly serve your Majesty and fetch the navigation chart!"

"Your Majesty, please take a look!"

When Mou Bin arrived at Chengtian Gate, he immediately got off his horse and knelt down to salute.

At the same time, he took out a wooden box from his arms and placed his hands above his head.

At this moment, the eyes of all the officials in Chengtianmen Square were focused on the wooden box in Mou Bin's hand.

Even the cries of pain from the officials who were being tortured seemed to be muted.

Zhu Youtang's eyes were also staring closely at the small wooden box.

"Send it up!"

Zhu Youtang waved his hand, and immediately the little eunuchs in charge of the ceremony took the wooden box from Mu Bin's hand and hurriedly presented it to Zhu Youtang.

Zhu Youtang took the small wooden box and stared at the outside of the small wooden box for a while before reaching out and opening the wooden box.

In the wooden box, a stack of simple nautical chart information lay quietly in it.

The charts and information have been preserved very completely. Even after decades, the lines and Chinese characters on them are still clearly visible.

It can be seen that these materials have been carefully maintained.

The person who maintains these information is none other than Liu Daxia!

This attitude of cherishing the information is completely different from what he said before, that the voyages to the West are harmful but useless.

Liu Daxia, a person who deceives the world and steals his reputation, really deserves to be killed!

Zhu Youtang narrowed his eyes and slowly opened the navigation chart.

During the Yongle period, the routes explored by Zheng He and tens of thousands of crew members were clearly displayed in front of Zhu Youtang.

On the nautical chart, the sea wind conditions, the direction of the ocean currents, where there are reefs, and where the ship can stop for supplies are very clearly marked...

With such a nautical chart, you have the key to unimpeded access to the Western Ocean.

And this key will open an inexhaustible golden mountain!

Zhu Youtang touched the nautical chart in his hand excitedly, as if he had seen the Ming Dynasty's ships traveling to various countries around the world, taking the lead in starting the era of great navigation.

At that time, the coming of all nations to dominate the world will no longer be an empty talk!

Just when Zhu Youtang was excited, the system, which had not seen any movement for a long time, suddenly issued a prompt.

"Ding! An item that can be signed in has been detected. Do you want to sign in?"
