Zhao Peng used the nasal drinking tube to force-feed, which made Hong Chengchou's hunger strike a waste. When the nasal drinking tube passed through the throat, it caused damage to the throat tissue. Zhao Peng finished filling Hong Chengchou with porridge and pulled out the nasal drinking tube, Hong Chengchou felt pain in the throat. After a while, the injured throat tissue began to swollen.

Hong Chengchou was tied up on the door panel for a night. His throat hurt even harder and more severely. Moreover, there were outrageous mosquitoes in the cold prison. He finally fell asleep easily, but was woken up by the buzzing singing of the mosquitoes. His hands were fixed on the door panel, and he had no choice but to reach out to slap the mosquitoes.

The sore throat is sore and mosquito bites, it feels really unpalatable. In fact, compared to other people who went to the imperial prison, Hong Chengchou was treated well, because Zhao Peng was afraid that he had been on a hunger strike for several days and was weak and could not withstand torture, so he did not torture him. Otherwise, the torture of the Jinyiwei would be much more uncomfortable than this.

The next day, the Jinyiwei opened the iron ring that fixed Hong Chengchou's hands and feet, dragged him up from the door panel, cut his hands behind his back, handcuffed his thumbs, put on shackles, put Hong Chengchou's cold hat on his head, and then carried him out of the imperial prison.

When he arrived at the gate of the Fushiyamen in Beizhen, Hong Chengchou was taken into a prison cart. Zhao Peng rode a tall horse and personally took the Jinyiwei to escort Hong Chengchou to the imperial city to meet the saint.

The prison car entered the imperial city from Bei'anmen to the north of the imperial city, and carried Hong Chengchou's prison car to the square in front of Yulin Right Guard and stopped.

"Your Majesty is here!" A long shout came from the direction of the Forbidden City in front.

Zhao Peng and a group of Jinyiwei knelt on the ground and bowed to the direction where the sound came.

Emperor Shaowu Zhu Cilang walked out surrounded by a group of eunuchs. He walked to the prison car that imprisoned Hong Chengchou. Two Jinyiwei quickly opened the cage of the prison car, released Hong Chengchou from the car, and untied his thumb handcuffs and shackles.

"Your Majesty, I deserve to die!" When I saw Zhu Cilang, Hong Chengchou's knees softened and he knelt in front of Zhu Cilang and kowtowed repeatedly. Although Zhu Cilang was just a young new emperor, much older than Hong Chengchou's school, the aura of the True Dragon Emperor on his body still shocked Hong Chengchou, causing Hong Chengchou to kneel down subconsciously with his legs weak.

"Hong Qing, my father treats you well, why don't you think about repaying the emperor's kindness, but you surrender to the captives and treason?" Zhu Cixuan asked.

"The criminals deserve to die. I was greedy for life and fear of death back then. I just wanted to live and resign. The criminals were willing to atone for death. I hope Your Majesty will give the criminals a happy life." Hong Chengchou knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly.

Zhu Cixuan turned around and asked, "Parent Han, what should we do if we surrender to the enemy and treason, what should we do if we surrender to Jiannu?"

"The emperor, Hong Jingluo, should punish the nine clans and be executed by Lingchi!" Han Zanzhou replied.

Zhu Cixuan said: "I didn't punish the Hong family for the crimes, so I would be exempted from killing the nine clans. When Hong Chengchou had to be executed in a stern manner! This case was handed over to the Third Division for trial, and was convicted by the Ministry of Justice, Dali Temple and the Censorate."

The trial of Hong Chengchou's three departments began, and Hong Chengchou was taken to the lobby of the Ministry of Justice.

Gao Zhuo, the Minister of Justice, sat on the chair of the Grand Master against the wall in the middle of the lobby. Sun Jin, the Minister of Dali Temple, and Zhao Peng, the commander of the Jinyiwei, sat on Gao Zhuo's right. Because the Three Divisions of the Ming Dynasty held a trial, the Jinyiwei and the Dali Temple appeared together in court. The Jinyiwei provided evidence, and the Minister of Dali Temple participated in the trial of the Three Divisions. Sitting on the left was the Censor Liu Zongzhou.

Seeing Hong Chengchou being taken in, Gao Zhuo's hand slapped the gavel and heavy shot: "The criminal Hong Chengchou! Don't kneel down yet!"

Hong Chengchou, wearing a Tartar version of the official uniform, had his knees weak and he knelt in the middle of the lobby.

Looking at Hong Chengchou, who had a rat-tail of money behind his bare big head, Liu Zongzhou, Gao Zhuo, Sun Jin and other officials in the lobby all looked contemptuous: It's so embarrassing. A good Han civil servant actually had a Tartar hairstyle, which was so shameful that he threw away all the faces of his ancestors!

Zhao Peng stood up, opened the paper in his hand, and began to count Hong Chengchou's various crimes: "Don't want to repay the emperor's kindness, and sacrificed his life for his country, but instead surrendered to the enemy and treason! After treason, he tried his best to make suggestions for the thieves and captives, forgot his ancestors, left a Tartar hairstyle, and encouraged the captive chief Dorgon to use guns to promote shaving and changing clothes, in an attempt to make all the Han people in the world shave their hair and change clothes to obtain psychological balance! He tried to destroy the Han people in the world!"

Hong Chengchou defended himself: "Songjin's defeat was not a crime of war. The criminal had tried hard to persuade the late emperor, but the late emperor refused to listen. Instead, he urged the criminal to send troops, which led to his fall into the siege of Jiannu."

"Isn't General Cao Cao also trapped in the siege of Jiannu? After he was captured, he would rather die than surrender to his country, but you were greedy for life and fear of surrendering to Jiannu! Besides, General Zu Dashou also surrendered to the enemy, but he never contributed to Jiannu, let alone actively advise Jiannu! But you are willing to be a loyal dog for Jiannu!" Zhao Peng rebuked loudly.

Hong Chengchou was speechless and had to lower his head: "The criminal pleads guilty and is willing to be punished."

Anyway, it has fallen into the hands of the Ming court. The evidence of the crime is conclusive and there is nothing to deny. If Wu Sangui is here, he can still argue that he is taking revenge for the late emperor, and Hong Chengchou is absolutely nothing to say. When Hong Chengchou surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, Chongzhen lived well, because he surrendered to the enemy because he was greedy for life and feared death.

In this case, it is better to admit your guilt instead of denying others and being humiliated.

According to the Ming Dynasty law, it is certain that he surrendered to the enemy and treason and executed Lingchi. As for whether he was implicated in the nine clans, it depends on the emperor and the cabinet. Before the trial of the three departments, Emperor Zhu Cilang had already spoken. The late emperor did not punish Hong Chengchou's family for his crimes, so he was exempted from the crime of implicating the nine clans. After discussion, the cabinet agreed to only punish Hong Chengchou and avoid the crime of his family for his crimes.

Finally, Gao Zhuo, the Minister of Justice, stood up and announced loudly: "Hong Chengchou surrendered to the enemy and treason, his crimes are unforgivable, and he should be punished!"

Hong Chengchou was taken back to the imperial prison of the Jinyiwei North Town Fushi, and he will be sentenced in the West City at noon in three days.

Hong Chengchou, the governor of the five provinces of the Qing Dynasty, was abducted from Luoyang by the Ming Jinyiwei in broad daylight and taken to Nanjing. The news that the regent Dorgon was furious.

"Hong Jiuheng is a pillar of the Qing Dynasty. He was actually poisoned by the barbarians! What's the use of this king to raise you and others!" Dorgon loudly rebuked the slaves of the Interior Office kneeling in front of him.

The Qing Dynasty did not have the secret service agencies like the Ming Dynasty Jinyiwei, so they were all served by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The Ministry of Internal Affairs founded by Huang Taiji was also sent to Huang Taiji through the Ministry of Internal Affairs. After Huang Taiji's death, the Ministry of Internal Affairs was in the hands of Dorgon.

Fan Wencheng suggested: "Master, I think that the Mingdog Eagle Claw Grandson is so rampant, so we should also establish an organization similar to the Mingdog Jinyiwei to deal with the Mingdog's threat. Otherwise, I wouldn't know if the slave's head was picked by Mingdog that day."

Dorgon shook his head: "Minggou Jinyiwei harms the people, is unpopular, and leads to the people's misfortune. Our court should learn from Minggou's lessons. This matter must not be done!"

Fan Wencheng said: "But Chongzhen was fooled by others, cut off his factory guards, and cut off his own arm, which led to corruption among officials and the people's lives being miserable, and was eventually captured by thieves!"

Dorgon thought for a moment and said slowly: "It seems that we have to establish an institution similar to the Jinyiwei. We can monitor whether officials have any disagreements internally; externally, we will deal with the Minggou Jinyiwei. If we publicly establish an institution similar to the Jinyiwei, we will inevitably be opposed by the former Ming surrendered official. Let's do this, we should establish an institution called Jianliu and secretly confront the Minggou Jinyiwei!"
