Chapter 85: If the Tao is not the same

In the eighty-fifth round, if the ways are not the same, they will not conspire with each other.

On the bench lay two medicine boys wearing only Chinese clothes, and next to each stood two unscrupulous jailers with wooden canes.

The light was not very bright, but Qin Ying still saw that the clothes of the two people were already stained with mottled blood.

The face of the staff pressed against the flesh of the thigh, and there was a dull dull sound, followed by one cry after another.

"Your Highness...... The little one is wrong...... Don't dare anymore. A man sobbed and choked, not knowing whether he was scared or beaten.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, we are just being forced by others, and we have no intention of harming you......" Another person also cried and begged for mercy.

They are still young, so naturally they can't bear such a punishment, and they are sad to make people panic and short-breathed.

Li Chengqian snorted with a cold face: "His Royal Highness asked you who was bewitched twice, but you didn't say it." It seems that it is a toast and does not eat and eats and punishes wine. Are you satisfied with the taste of the penalty wine now? ”

"Your Highness spares your life...... one begged for forgiveness intermittently, and the other fainted from the pain.

Li Chengqian turned his gaze with a cold expression, only to find Qin Ying standing behind him. wanted to say something to say hello, Qin Ying rushed in front of him and spoke, and a faint word made him speechless.

"Your Highness used a lynching, right?"

Qin Ying stared at Li Chengqian for a moment, as if she had never known him.

"Why don't you wait for the trial of Dali Temple and the Criminal Department, and then use the punishment privately?"

The tip of his nose was surrounded by wisps of bloody qi, and the spleen and stomach that had just been cultivated began to feel uncomfortable again, Qin Ying slowly squatted down against the wall, but his eyes were fixed on his body and did not leave for a moment.

Qin Ying stayed in Dali Temple Prison for more than a month in his last life, and he knew the jailers here very well.

They do not use their official positions to oppress prisoners in prison at will, but once they speak up, they can use violent means to win the slightest favor from above.

The long history of Dali Temple and other officials are not in prison, so it can be seen that the cane punishment is not the meaning of the top, but is manipulated by Li Chengqian, who is standing here.

Thinking about this, Qin Ying was shocked and panicked at the same time.

In the relationship between the previous life and this life, she knew that Li Chengqian had a colder temperament, but she didn't know that his methods of doing things would be so unscrupulous and sharp.

How could he arbitrarily disobey the law and impose caning on two children who appeared to have not yet been crowned? He has now assumed the title of crown prince, and will assume the responsibility of the world in the future.

As the prince of a country and the future emperor, his power will one day swell to the extreme, and if he deals with everything by his temperament, then ......

Qin Ying didn't dare to imagine it.

She interrupted her mixed thoughts, and admonished in a somewhat stiff tone: "Wait patiently for a few days, Dali Temple will definitely give you an explanation." Your Highness don't want to force confessions, let them go first. ”

Li Chengqian was silent for a long time, the lights flickered and the shadow shone on his face, and Qin Ying, who was five steps away, couldn't see the other party's expression clearly.

She instinctively felt that she would offend him by speaking like this, but she had to stand her ground at a time when the jailer was pretending to be deaf and dumb and lynching had no one to advise.

If she watched Li Chengqian lynched here, but did nothing or anything, her heart would be uneasy.

“…… Qin Ying, do you think you are the crown prince and the princess, and you can point fingers at His Royal Highness in front of everyone? ”

Li Chengqian was angry. It was not because Qin Ying dared to cut his face and dignity in public, but because Qin Ying couldn't understand his thoughts and intentions at all.

Someone caused the medicine boy who decocted the medicine to put cinnabar in the pot, and his heart was condemnable, but it did not directly threaten Li Chengqian. Li Chengqian could ignore these two culprits and let Dali Temple and the Criminal Department coordinate the investigation.

But he couldn't wait.

The cinnabar decoction did not hurt himself, but it hurt the people around him.

In the past five days, as soon as he closed his eyes, he could think of the scene where Qin Ying drank the bowl of soup and medicine by himself, and then lay quietly in his dormitory.

- Is it tolerable or intolerable?

He couldn't find the villain hiding in the shadows for a moment. I didn't dare to relax for a moment.

"Qin is soft-spoken, and he doesn't want His Highness to listen to me." As she spoke, Qin Ying pursed her lips tightly and left the prison corridor with her feet drawn. didn't take two steps, and was pulled back half of his body by a stubborn force.

"The Tao is different, and they don't conspire with each other. Where have you read all the books of the sages of Your Highness? Qin Ying flicked off her sleeves and glared fiercely at Li Chengqian, who had just pulled her sleeves, "If Qin is really the crown prince, I'm afraid I will have to resign as soon as possible, so as not to be held accountable for my poor education." ”

Without waiting for him to answer, Qin Ying took a step forward and walked away quickly.

Li Chengqian finally let out a heavy sigh.

The jailer, who has always been good at seeing the wind and steering the rudder, saw that His Highness's appearance had calmed down slightly, and he came forward and bowed down and said, "Your Highness, are you still going to carry out the execution?" ”

He quietly looked at the person who was beaten by the wooden cane in the distance, waved his hand and commanded in a low voice: "Find a prison doctor, treat the injuries of the two, don't let them die like this." ”

The jailer answered, beckoning a few of his colleagues to come and pack up the torture rod and other utensils. In his spare time, he looked into the prison and found that the prince had already gone out.

They walked in the endless corridor of the long land, and they started to talk about idle stories, and the topic went around and around, but it always fell on the little boy who dared to give His Royal Highness the crown prince a face just now.

"Wearing a light green nine-grade official uniform, he can compete with His Highness without pretense. I'm afraid that he has a lot of background. The most knowledgeable of the jailers came to a conclusion, and the others smashed their mouths in agreement.

Qin Ying and Li Chengqian parted unhappily, and the palace attendants who were sandwiched between the two sides were very embarrassed. I don't know whether to keep up with Qin Ying or guard His Highness.

The palace attendant thought that he had done something bad with good intentions, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would definitely be angry, so he resolutely ran away first.

So he trotted to catch up with Qin Ying at the gate of Dali Temple, panting and walking behind her and said, "Lord Qin, you are too reckless to speak." You're not that kind of person on weekdays, so why are you ...... today?"

Qin Ying only stared at the stone pavement under his feet, and said arrogantly without raising his eyelids: "I haven't spoken before." What's more, Qin has offended a lot of people. There are not many of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of your family, and there is no less of him. ”

"You're still working in the Lizheng Palace, and you've hit your head, how will you live in the future?" The palace attendant persistently asked. Most of the eunuchs who work in the palace are very long-winded, and he is no exception.

She smiled when she heard this, and her slightly tilted lips revealed a sly taste: "The manpower arrangement of the Medicine Collection Bureau has come down. As a doctor, I alternate with others, about one decade and two decades off. After twenty years, Qin will be on duty in the palace, and whether he can remember me is still a question. ”

The palace attendant covered his mouth with his hand and said in a mouth shape, Lord Qin, you underestimate your weight in the heart of His Royal Highness the Prince.
