Chapter Seventy-Eight: Two Peach Kills Three Soldiers (Female Man Asks for a Monthly Pass)
The interrogation lasted for a day and a night, until the next morning, the five people still died and did not speak, and Chen Huang, who did not even have time to change his clothes, took the confessions of the five people to the backyard of Chengfu, and saw that Cheng Jia had returned from the dynasty and was watering Zizhu in the grass pavilion.

"My lord, the confessions of the five of them are exactly the same, they all say that they are greedy for food, and they don't say anything else! β
Chen Huang had a headache and handed over five almost identical confessions to Cheng Jia.
"It's useless to have breakfast, right? Jing'an, bring some peaches from the old and new doctors, eat one first, pad your stomach, and we'll talk about it." β
Cheng Jia didn't look at the five confessions that Chen Huang had sorted out, just threw them on the table on the side, and then ordered Jing to bring a few peaches up, pick one, and leisurely hand it to Chen Huang, who looked anxious.
Chen Huang took it with a blank expression.
Now how can he still be in the mood to eat, the princess boasted to the king that he would solve the case in Haikou for half a month, and it has been two days, and he can't even talk about these five small fish and shrimp, how to catch big fish, but he still took it and thanked him, "Thank you." β
"In a hurry?"
Cheng Jia looked at his expression and raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Well, I'm in a hurry! My lord ordered me to interrogate, but I couldn't find anything. Chen Huang nodded, with a hint of decadence, and the peach in his hand did not move.
Cheng Jia slowly picked another peach in his hand and asked, "Have you heard of an allusion?"
"What allusion?"
Chen Huang knew that Cheng Jia was very knowledgeable, and he often had a lot of amazing words, which were unheard of.
"Two peaches kill three soldiers. β
"Peach, and 'escape' again. You say that if one of the five of them escapes alive and three are sentenced to be executed, what will he think of the last one?"
Cheng Jia picked up a green peach in the fruit bowl, turned it in his palm, glanced at the peach in his hand with faint eyes, and asked.
Chen Huang thought for a moment, "The last person must have betrayed them and betrayed all four of them." β
"The last person, does he want to live or die?" Cheng Jia asked again.
"People don't want to die, do they? Chen Huang thought for a moment.
"Then give the most timid prince, the best hospitality, change the best cell, bed, and food; and Liu, Zhang, and LΓΌ will all be sentenced to death regardless of what they say; and Zheng will be the most cunning, so he will remain in the old prison, and from time to time he will bring up the great punishment and serve, while watching the king's officials eat and drink well, and wait for his release. β
Cheng Jia put the peach in his hand back on the stone table, took out another peach, put it in a jade bowl, and offered it well, but the rest of the peaches were all waved to the ground with a "snap" and rolled to the ground.
"When the time comes, it will depend on which of them is willing to confess first, and you will tell them that if the princess confesses, she will not die and protect his whole family. β
"Yes!" Chen Huang's eyes lit up.
Taking a heavy bite of the peach in his hand, Chen Huang's face suddenly changed, "It's so sour, my lord, are you sure you want to eat it?"
"Stinky boy, even if the peaches I grow are sour, they are different!"
Hearing this, the old doctor scolded, "How have you ever seen a peach in winter, this green peach is worth this family, and there is no other semicolon." β
"Okay, I'll eat!"
If you offend anyone, don't offend the doctor.
Maybe one day your life will need to be saved by him.
Chen Huang resigned himself to eating all the sour peaches.
Jing'an pouted while sweeping the floor.
also said that he was stupid, obviously the most stupid was Chen Huang.
This hairy peach looked green, and the old doctor and the son told him to eat it, but he never ate a bite.
Cheng Jia smiled, looked at the peach in his hand and took a bite, "It's delicious, at least it can save your stomach." β
"If I can grow two seasons of plants in the future, who else will be hungry?"
In the prison of the Criminal Prison Department, Zheng Yan and the five of them interrogated for a day and a night, but the five of them didn't need to be beaten into tricks at all, and they all said: "We recruited, this disaster relief case is: The five of us joined hands to steal the disaster food, which has nothing to do with others, and the five of us did it by hiding from the world and crossing the sea." β
The rest of the words, or people, did not say a word.
There was a crisp sound.
The cell boss in charge of the interrogation scolded and opened the iron lock, and said to the five people, "Lord Wang, your life is really good, our boss has lost a lot of money, in view of your meritorious report, now we will change your cell and let you live more comfortably, and when the case is solved in a few days, the lady said that you will also be considered guilty, and you can be released at that time." β
"Come on, invite Lord Wang into the No. 1 room of Tianzi. β
As we all know, the Tianzi room is for entertaining the prince's relatives and relatives, which is no different from the luxurious rooms outside.
Then someone carried out the royal officials who had been tortured and comatose on a good stretcher, and the doctor followed, while the other four people, the cell head hooked his lips and ordered Liu Yi, Zhang Yi, and Lu Yi, "Come on, put the three of them on death row for me, and ask for beheading in the afternoon!"
Kick, kick......
The rhythmic footsteps resounded in the deep prison cell, and several five big and three thick jailers strode forward, blocking the only oil lamp in the prison, like the ghost of death shrouded the heads of Liu Yan, Zhang Yi, and Lu Yi.
The jailer reached out with his large, rough hand and scooped up the three of them like dead dogs.
The three of them immediately cried bitterly, and stretched out to Zheng Yan, the only one in the prison who was not sentenced to death, "Why?...... We don't want to die......"
"Lord Zheng, Lord Zheng, you quickly think of a way......
Zheng Yan didn't expect that this female judge would not be carefully interrogated, and Zhila would sentence them all to death, which was too fast.
Trying to shrink himself into the corner, Zheng Yan, who was wearing prison uniforms, shook his head again and again, looking at the Wang official who was carried out and the three people who were dragged out, his face panicked.
The cell boss stood outside the cell, locked the cell door again, looked at the scared Zheng Yan inside, and sighed, "Master Zheng, you are the only one left, enjoy this last time, maybe it will be you tomorrow, haha......"
The cell boss laughed and left.
The biting cold wind blew into the iron window, blowing a gust of wind in the cell that covered the sky, Zheng Yan, who was only wearing a thin prison coat, shivered all over, and hugged himself tightly with straw, he was now left alone in the empty cell, the sun slowly rose from the highest sky, and at noon, three extremely tragic shouts came through the iron window.
"Help!"
"Ahh
"Lord Zheng, we don't know anything!"
He knew the voice.
It is Liu Yan, Zhang Yi, and Lu Yi.
He knew, they didn't know anything.
"Haha, what is your identity now, do you still think you are a prince and a relative?"
A jailer walked past his cell with a bottle of fine wine, clean water, three bowls of good fish, and rice, and said salivatingly, "This surnamed Wang has a really good life, and he can enjoy this kind of treatment, which can only be enjoyed by the fourth master of Ruoao!"
"Tsk, yes, it is said that when the case is solved, he will be able to make up for it and release him home. β
"Damn, it's a good life, we still have big fish and meat to serve him. β
The smell of fish meat permeated the cell as he walked.
Countless dirty hands stretched out through the cell door and pleaded in front of the jailer, "Give us a bite to die too, we've been hungry for days!"
"We want to eat! I beg you to ......"
The jailer grinned his yellow teeth and took a bite out of the outstretched hands, "You want to eat, don't you? When you die, I will naturally serve you food." Now, wait for me to die!"
The whole prison suddenly resounded with a cry of pain......
It's so noisy.
Zheng Yan felt that he was going crazy, he was tortured for a day and a night, he suffered countless injuries, and he was hungry for two days, but there was no news from Zhou Mu's side.
Hunger and death were straining his nerves.
To die, or not to die?
His mind was at war between heaven and man.
In another big prison that Zheng Yan didn't know, the sound of stumbling footsteps came step by step from the end of the road, and Mi Huang was wearing a snow-white big fur accompanied by Cheng Jia, who was dressed in a purple fur, stood in front of a cell door and glanced at the cell head.
The cell boss urged, "Hurry up, open the cell door, the lady and the master are here." β
"Yes, yes, yes!"
The little jailer took out the key on his waist, quickly opened the cell door, and respectfully invited Mi Huang and Cheng Jia to enter.
The cell boss ordered the jailer to quickly clean the prison and clear out an open space, and then viciously kicked Liu Yan, who was scared to death, kicked him to wake up, and scolded, "Wake up, the princess and Lord Si are here!"
Liu Yan woke up groggily and glanced at Mi Huang and Cheng Jia.
Under the dim light of the oil lamp, I only saw two black hole figures, like ghosts of the Nine Hells, and asked abruptly, "Have I reached the underworld?" I died so unjustly, I really don't know anything...... I died unjustly......"
Mi Huang frowned and glanced at Liu Yan, who was already unconscious.
Cheng Jia shook his head and said affirmatively, "He doesn't know anything, and if he asks, he asks in vain." There is always only one person who connects with Zhou Mu, and that is Zheng Yan. β
Then he opened the cell door and said, "Let's go, let's go and see if Zheng Yan is willing to recruit." β
"Hmm. β
Mi Huang's eyes sank, looked at the man who walked out first, and nodded.
In the endless silence, even the slightest abnormal sound was enough to wake up Zheng Yan, who was holding straw for warmth, and the moment he heard the sound, he sat up straight like a projectile, slammed on the cell door, looked at the Huang standing outside the prison door, and shouted, "I move, I move...... Girl, I'll do anything, I don't want to die!!"
He really didn't want to die!
If it weren't for Zhou Mu threatening the lives of his entire family.
Mi Huang finally smiled when he heard this, his eyes bent, and he looked at Cheng Jia appreciatively, "You guessed right!"
Cheng Jia also picked his eyes and nodded, "Fortunately, I don't disgrace my life! Then it's the next target." β
The next interrogation went very smoothly, including how Zhou Mu instructed him to bribe the other four people to secretly replace all the disaster grain before loading it, and then transport it to the counties, all of which he said, but he didn't know where the disaster grain went after it was replaced, Zhou Mu just gave him a large amount of money and slaves.
"Please, princess, you must protect me and my family. I really don't want to die......"
Zheng Yan cried, and he didn't dare to slip his head again.
