Faced with Zhang Huangyan's dissuasion.

Wu Zheng laughed and said, "Since the Ming Dynasty, Jinyiwei, East Factory and West Factory, died under torture by ordinary people, and there are countless court officials who have been scepters alone. It is even more circulated among the people that if an official of the Ming Dynasty had not been to prison or court sticks, he would be embarrassed to admit that he had been an official in the Ming Dynasty.

Brother Xuan, I am not a sage. No one can do without mistakes, if you have any mistakes, you can correct them, and I have never regretted this. When I really encounter unforgivable people, I need to torture and punish them severely. Even in Buddhism with compassion, there are thunderous means of being a wake-up call. How can I repay my kindness with kindness?"

Speaking of this, Wu Zheng pinched the paper plan and threw it at Jiang Quanyi, "Go and tell the people that I am sure!"

....

Chen Hongfan is dead.

Three days later, he couldn't stand it anymore.

The people stabbed the pinholes on the first part of his body with steel needles, and then inserted the pig's bristles into the pinholes, allowing Chen Hongfan to watch his own blood with his own eyes and slowly fall down the pig's bristles drop by drop.

The physical pain, the fear in the heart, the feeling of wanting to shout but not being able to shout, and the feeling of wanting to die but not being able to die is probably the eighteenth level hell!

Three days later, when Chen Hongfan's blood was about to dry up, dying and not dead yet, the people took advantage of him not yet dead and cut him into pieces and fed him a piece of meat to the dog until he was dismembered and died.

In the subconscious of the Han people for thousands of years, "No one can do without mistakes, no one can do without mistakes, and there is no such thing as any mistake can be corrected." However, what the Han people cannot tolerate the most is traitors. This seems to be a contradiction, but it is precisely because of this that the Chinese nation can continue to this day in the long river of history. Every time when the nation is in danger, they can be reborn from the fire.

Fortresses are always broken from the inside, and the harm caused by traitors is often greater than that of foreign enemies. This is the consensus of the Han people for thousands of years.

When Wu Zheng left Xiushui, the people of the whole city came to see him off from the ground.

In the hearts of the people, Wu Zheng is his own person, not only his own family, but also has the kindness of compassion for the world and the thunder of eliminating evil. What's more, Wu Zheng is able to speak to them.

If you can talk to them, you are your own family!

Zhang Huangyan was a little sad. It was not because he opposed the execution of Chen Hongfan and the prisoners, but because he received education since childhood that he felt that he should not use such tyrannical means to kill someone.

This has a strong conflict with his concept of life.

But facing the people who came to see Wu Zheng off, he felt that Wu Zheng was right.

These two completely opposite and contradictory mutual squeezes made Zhang Huangyan a little anxious.

....

"Zhang Cangshui, are you still stubbornly stubborn about my agreement with the public to deal with Chen Hongfan?"

On the way back to Jiaxing Mansion, Wu Zheng asked at Zhang Huangyan who was frowning.

Zhang Huangyan shook his head, then nodded.

Wu Zheng sneered: "What else can you and me say clearly?"

Zhang Huangyan looked at Wu Zheng's eyes and said, "If you have revenge, you will repay grudges with grudges. This is a knight's behavior and cannot be the same as the law. If the murder of Chen Hongfan becomes a precedent... the world is afraid of chaos."

Wu Zheng frowned and said, "How about the chaos?"

"I have no objection to this. However, the law is widely accepted. This time, the prince used Chen Hongfan's special example. If he was imitated by local governments, he would not be far from chaos in the world."

"How is that possible?" Wu Zheng laid his eyebrows, "You mean, there are so many people in the world like Chen Hongfan, so many that we can stand opposite to most people?"

Zhang Huangyan shook his head and said, "The prince misunderstood. What I mean is that it is a chaotic time, and people's hearts are impetuous. It is not uncommon for Jiangnan to surrender to the Qing Dynasty, let alone Jiangbei? In the future, the prince led his troops to the northern expedition and could not do everything by himself. Just like dealing with Chen Hongfan, it is necessary to deal with every traitor. But once the matter is imitated by the governments in various places, I dare to ask the prince, who else dares to submit to the prince anyway?"

Wu Zheng said: "If anyone like Chen Hongfan is killed by killing one person, what a pity?"

"But the problem is that the military and civilians who surrendered to the Qing Dynasty may not have the crimes like Chen Hongfan!"

"I didn't say anything, I want to kill all the Han people in the Qing Dynasty?" Wu Zheng opened his eyes and stared at Zhang Huangyan.

Zhang Huangyan sighed, "If you have something to do with the emperor, you will have to be more serious. So, the prince's permission to abuse Chen Hongfan is indeed what Chen Hongfan should do, but in the future, facing so many military and civilians in Jiangbei who had to surrender to the Qing Dynasty, how can the governments in various places deal with themselves? The governments in various places will follow the example of the prince today and start a massacre. The impact of this will be enough to be used by the Qing court and those who are interested in slandering our tyrannical and cruelty."

Wu Zheng stared and said, "I didn't say that anyone who surrendered to the Qing Dynasty should die. I only say that traitors should die."

"Are you a traitor? Should you abuse or kill him? What is the clear dividing line between the charges of traitors? If you only distinguish whether you surrender to the Qing Dynasty, there will be countless people who are killed in vain."

"I didn't say that as long as I surrendered to Qing Dynasty, my crimes will not be forgiven."

"But in order to cater to you, governments in various places will consider most people who will not die as death guilty."

Wu Zheng understood Zhang Huang's meaning, his heart skipped a beat and he thought silently.

Seeing this, Zhang Huangyan was very satisfied. He knew that Wu Zheng was thinking about something.

It doesn’t matter whether you can come up with a mistake. What’s important is that those who hold the power of life and death need to have a heart that governs the world.

So, Zhang Huangyan smiled and said, "Actually, this matter is not difficult to solve."

When Wu Zheng heard this, he felt energetic and asked anxiously: "How to solve it?"

"The General's Office informs all prefectures and counties that allow the people of the Qing Dynasty to surrender, as long as they sincerely submit, the government can be unrestrained."

"No! This kind of goodness cannot be achieved, and evil cannot be punished, so I will never agree!"

Zhang Huangyan glanced at Wu Zheng, "What's the hurry? I haven't finished talking yet!"

Wu Zheng said angrily: "Say, I'm talking about you, but I'll declare first that I will never agree to let the traitor go!"

"Anyway, it is for the civil law to be allowed to surrender to the Qing people." Zhang Huangyan said seriously, "But the traitors who are extremely angry with the public will be classified as military law. Military law is the prince's business, and I will not argue with it."

Wu Zheng was a little dazed, "How to define the great public anger?"

Zhang Huangyan said: "If there is public opinion circulating and there is conclusive evidence, and if someone reports and verifies it, it can be extremely angry with the public."

Wu Zheng began to ponder.
