The investigation of the case was originally handed over by the emperor to King Hong, and he was afraid that the mastermind behind this was a patriot, and he would be wiped out tonight, and nothing would be found out at that time. But as King Min said, if he is a patriot, he must be positioned as a high authority, King Fengyang has only been the king for half a year, and he has been fighting outside in the past, so it is unlikely that he will have a grudge with others, and the person who wants to kill him must be jealous of him, or because he can't win him over.

King Hong thought about it before and after, it must not have been his father's doing, otherwise he would not be so angry. He himself has to be excluded, he knows himself best, and he has been trying to win over King Fengyang, but he has no intention of killing at all.

The third child has always been very aggressive about catching the murderer, not quite like he did it, and his brain has never been enough, so he will not do it so perfectly.

If it is possible to say that the fourth child did it, but he was the first to propose to try the prisoner immediately, and he couldn't play tricks in front of everyone, he must be completely sure that he would say this, but if he is completely sure, he will not leave such a big flaw in his life, so it is unlikely that he did it.

Lao Wu doesn't see anyone all day long, and he plays either as a woman or a man, and he can't play so profoundly.

The sixth child is a half-dead person, it is good to save his life, how can he have the energy to kill.

Lao Qi is the most unlikely, even if he has this heart, he doesn't have this ability, he has no one to use.

The eighth, the eighth is still a milky doll, and he has never seen a killing. Concubine Ji Guifei was busy fixing her favor, and she didn't have the heart to kill a King Fengyang who had nothing to do with her, if her father fell in love with King Fengyang, then it was possible that she did it.

Thinking and thinking, they don't look like murderers, aren't they patriots? Hongwang had a headache.

"Second brother, what's wrong with you?" King Ming said with concern.

"He's worried about catching the murderer. Don't try it to the end, the murderer is actually the one who tried people! King Min gloated and laughed, "Second brother, don't you have a headache about this?" ”

King Hong was so angry that he grinded his teeth, and the third child's stinky mouth was really hateful. After dusting off the dust on his sleeves, King Hong assumed the posture of a brother and said steadily: "Let's go, according to your wishes, I will go to trial now." My father is also waiting for the result. ”

When King Jing heard this, he said to the little servant beside him: "Go to Fengyang Wangfu and say, now I will go to Dali Temple to try the prisoners, if you want to listen, you have to come quickly." After that, seeing that the brothers were looking at him, he explained with a light smile: "After all, it is about King Fengyang, King Fengyang is now in a coma, and he can't attend, so let someone in his house sit in on him, and tell King Fengyang in the future, so that I can know that our brothers are doing their best." ”

Hongwang nodded and did not speak.

King Min pursed his lips and said, "Just think about it!" He thought about it, felt that it was not enjoyable, and said: "King Fengyang was your companion when he was young, and he was so good at that time that he couldn't wait to wear a pair of pants, and everyone knows that as long as you nod your head at the fourth child, King Fengyang and you are a family, do you still need to be so flattering?" ”

Although King Min said it vaguely, everyone present knew what he meant, and even the youngest King Ming knew a little, and he couldn't help but secretly say that the third brother's mouth was really hateful, and if King Fengyang was present, he would offend two people at once.

Sure enough, even if he was as gentle as King Jing, his face sank at this time, and he said, "Third brother, please be careful!" This is an insult to King Fengyang, I know that the third brother has no intention, but King Fengyang may not know, if it reaches the ears of King Fengyang, it will not be a good thing! ”

King Min was suddenly a little stupid, it doesn't matter if he offends the fourth child, but he can't offend King Fengyang, how can he say that he is also holding the tiger talisman.

King Hong looked at it coldly, and he also felt happy in his heart. Although many people know about the rumors, others are taboo about the identities of the fourth child and the king of Fengyang, and at most they will laugh a few words in private, and only the third child is a fool who dares to speak blatantly in front of the fourth child. What kind of person is the fourth, the fourth is the best at pretending, and he can't find the slightest mistake with that move. is to make trouble in the court, to the father, that is also the fourth child is reasonable, and the third child is nonsense. I don't know how many times I've lost it, and I don't have a long memory.

The prince's status is noble, so naturally he will not wait for a subordinate of Fengyang Palace, they all brought the car, so they each got into the car, and arrived at Dali Temple after a while. Zheng Nancheng, the secretary of Dali Temple, had already received the order, and happened to greet several princes at the door, he did not show any flattery, and said expressionlessly: "The torture tools in the public court have been prepared." ”

King Hong knew that this person was selfless, a model of integrity, and his actions were not leaky, so he was very relieved.

After several princes took their seats, 6 Cheng also hurried to arrive. didn't care about wiping his sweat, he first saluted and thanked several princes, and so on. Jing Wang nodded, gave him a seat, and let him sit at the bottom of the place.

Zheng Nancheng gave the order, and the assassin was escorted to the court. Although the public hall can enter the light, somehow, there is an eerie feeling, like a netherworld and an underworld.

The prison guards who held the prisoners were very skillful, and they first clicked the prisoner's hole, then untied the rope and cloth belt that bound the prisoner, carried the prisoner to the torture rack, and locked his hands and feet with fixed iron rings. Then one person pinched the prisoner's chin, only to hear a "pop", the prisoner's chin has been removed, even so, the man still pinched the prisoner's chin and did not let go, just in case. The other person took the handkerchief from the prisoner's mouth, and at this time the prisoner couldn't close his chin, his mouth was salivating, and the jailer who pinched his chin was a hand, and the jailer was not dirty, motionless, and his face was expressionless. After the other man took out the handkerchief, he reached into the prisoner's mouth, stroked it along the gums, touched it one tooth after another, and touched it for a long time before he found a poison sac between the teeth near the base of the tongue. This is to prevent prisoners from committing suicide during the trial.

But that's not all. Before the prisoner's jaw was attached, an elderly white-bearded jailer opened a toolbox, took out a needle bag from it, and picked at the candle flame for a long time, finally selecting a long needle that was neither thick nor thin. The needle was heated on the candle flame, and some potion was dipped in a porcelain bottle, and the wrinkled hand touched the prisoner's cheeks, pressed left and right, found the right position, and slowly pierced it. The prisoner felt his jaw tingle, and he seemed to be unconscious.

It took five or six stitches before the old jailer put away his tools. He pressed the prisoner's cheeks and nodded to the jailer who pinched his chin, and the man let go of his hand and took the prisoner's chin up. The prisoner had a jaw and immediately bit his tongue, but found that he could not exert himself. At this time, the jailer even solved the acupuncture points for him, he hurriedly tried again, but his body was strong, but his jaw just couldn't work, he could speak, but he couldn't bite anything.

At this time, Zheng Nancheng, the secretary of Dali Temple, spoke: "The old gentleman of Dali Temple just now, the most common acupuncture points, the few needles on your cheeks have softened your muscles, you can speak, but you can't bite things, you will break the idea of suicide." ”

The prisoner snorted and said, "If you want to kill, you can do whatever you want, and don't try to get a word out of my mouth!" ”

Zheng Nancheng didn't mind his rudeness at all, looked at him with pity, and said in a gentle tone: "This official advises you to recruit as soon as possible, and suffer less, at least you can die happily." There are many secret methods in Dali Temple, and those few stitches are just skin, if you don't cooperate, I'm afraid that you can't survive and die. ”

Although the prisoner was worried in his heart, he still said fearlessly: "Come, I am not afraid of you!" As he spoke, he muttered something again.

King Min asked, "What did he say?" Aren't you chanting a mantra? ”

"He was praying that their gods would bless him and allow him to survive this difficult time and return his soul to his homeland when he died." Zheng Nancheng was able to become Dali Siqing at the age of thirty-two, which shows that he has the advantage of being fluent in various Chinese, and no one in the entire country is able to defend the country.

"Which country is this, or is it a local dialect?" Hiroo asked.

"It's barbarians, the barbarians say." But King Jing answered

Finish.

Zheng Nancheng raised his eyebrows as if he was a little surprised, "It turns out that His Royal Highness King Jing understands barbarian language!" ”

King Jing shook his head and said, "I only know a little fur, and an old friend understands and taught this king a few words." ”

The old friend that King Jing said knew several people present, and this person was none other than Fengyang King 6 Huanong, who was now in danger. 6 Hua Nong has fought with the barbarians for many years, and it is not uncommon for him to be proficient in the barbarian language.

Thinking of King Jing's deep friendship with 6 Hua Nong in his early years, several princes knew it in their hearts.

Zheng Nancheng didn't continue to talk about this topic, and turned to the prisoner: "This official asks you again, do you recruit or not?" ”

But the prisoner was stingy and spat out a word.

Zheng Nancheng was not strong, and said to his subordinates: "Please come over the knife master." ”

This subordinate is a newcomer, and he couldn't help but shudder when he heard the words.

After a while, the knife master came. This swordsmith was very different from those mighty executioners, he was very thin, shriveled, and in his forties. However, it can be seen that the jailers and Zheng Nancheng have a lot of respect for him.

The knife master also has a toolbox, but this box is carried by a special person for him. The one carrying the box was a very delicate young man, with a vigorous face, completely different from the gloomy knife master.

The young man opened the toolbox and asked, "What number of knives does Master want to use?" ”

The knife master paused his clean hands, glanced at the prisoner, thought for a moment, and said, "No. three." ”

"Okay!" The young man responded happily and took out the No. 3 knife from the box, but it was not a knife, there were more than a dozen large and small odd-shaped knives and tweezers. This set is collectively known as the No. 3 knife.
