"Concubine... You okay...! ”

In the Chengchun Palace, Li Shimin whispered a word of love for the concubine... In an instant, Wei Jue's tears fell, and he saw Wei Jue kneeling in front of Li Shimin and said, "Your Majesty... The concubine is wrong...! ”

"Are you wrong?" Li Shimin was stunned.

Then I heard Wei Qi crying: "It's all because the concubines are pampered and arrogant, thinking that Your Majesty favors them, so they made some hostile performances to the queen's mother, and then they were framed."

Everything is the fault of the concubine, and the concubine asks His Majesty to surrender. ”

Oops... Behind is a heart-rending cry, to be honest, this is sincere repentance, so Li Shimin smiled slightly, and finally Li Shimin gently helped Wei Jue up and comforted: "Okay, okay, it's good to know that it's wrong, it's okay now, it's just acting, you can rest assured, it will pass soon, at that time, I'm proving it for you, okay...!" ”

After speaking, Li Shimin hugged Wei Jue... And Wei Jue, who was hugged, cried even more fiercely.

It's just that Li Shimin didn't know at this time that in the corner of this Taiji Palace, a palace maid named Xiaoyan was being pushed into the well... The Lotus Society is a very strange organization, its slogan is not widely popular among the people of the Tang Dynasty, but after entering the palace, it has become the spiritual home of palace maids and eunuchs.

Why... A lot of people must want to ask.

Without him... Because this group of people in the palace is the most pitiful, a group of homeless people, who came up with a home, but it's a pity that this family that came out of it is just some shameless people who want to use their slogans.

"Why... Why... Little Goose... You clearly said that you would give us a home, and you clearly said it, but now you want to kill us, I hurt you, Xiaoyan, it was Brother Qin who hurt you.

Brother Qin doesn't know, these people are just a group of liars, okay, now Brother Qin will come to accompany you, and now I will accompany you. ”

As soon as the little eunuch finished speaking, he also jumped down the well... At this time, a strong eunuch appeared by the well, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth and said: "You can go to the vacuum hometown, I did the right thing, I can get the qualification for rebirth...!" ”

..........................

"Childe...! Yu Bao's daughter has been found...! ”

The time was 18 o'clock in the evening, and Li Zhan heard a piece of news in his mansion that he could finally be happy, and the person who reported the news to Li Zhan was Wei Chang.

"Well done... Wei Chang... Where did you find Yu Bao's daughter? Li Zhan laughed.

It's just that what Li Zhan didn't expect was that Yu Bao said this place, which made Li Zhan's original laughter come to an abrupt end.

"Hui Gongzi... Yu Bao's daughter was found in a member of the Lotus Society. ”

As soon as he said this, Li Zhan's brows furrowed: "How do you know that the other party is a member of the Lotus Society?" ”

"There is a secret room in the house, and the secret room enshrines the statue of the head of the Lotus Society...!"

When Wei Chang said this, Li Zhan had already shown an unkind look, only to see Li Zhan stand up from the chair and say, "Why is there a shadow of the Lotus Society... Could it be that all this has something to do with the Lotus Society? ”

"It's not easy for this subordinate to judge, and according to the explanation of the Lotus Society, this child was stolen by them, because they have never had a child in their younger family, so they just kidnapped a child on the street and came back to raise it.

His Majesty also went to ask the neighbors of the young couple around him, and got the same explanation as them.

The young couple has been married for three years, still has no children, and is very eager for children, joining the Lotus Society, also hoping to have a child. ”

"I don't believe it, everything is so coincidental...!" Li Zhan turned around and looked at Wei Chang and asked, "Have you been caught?" ”

"Got it back...!"

"Then use the torture... Let them tell the truth! Li Zhan said very resolutely at this time, you must know that in general, Li Zhan is not like this, Li Zhan always said that he should love the people like a son, and he would not let anyone use torture against the people of the Tang Dynasty.

But when it comes to the Lotus Society today, Li Zhan finally went against the norm, without him, because only Li Zhan knew the horror of the Lotus Society, and last time he looked like he had repelled the Lotus Society, in fact, he did not cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and it has always been the mustard in Li Zhan's heart.

This incident actually has the shadow of the Lotus Society, so Li Zhan has to give up mercy.

According to the records... After the Han Dynasty until the Ming and Qing dynasties, officials used torture and torture to extract confessions in case trials, which was called "torture" in ancient times; The name of the Qing Dynasty is more vivid, called "boil trial".

From ancient times to the present, there have been thousands of torture tricks.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was a saying of "plundering the five poisons", and the cool officials of the Tang Dynasty used to torture such as "clay ears and cage heads", "beating coercion and claws", "hanging hair and smoked eyes" and so on.

There is a more cruel "sandalwood punishment" in Lijingmen than Ling Chi: a piece of polished sandalwood from the bottom of the prisoner, through the internal organs, and then from the upper back of the neck, almost no wounds, which is intended to make people live in pain.

The ancients were backward in everything, but the punishment was the most advanced.

Because the ancients had a special genius in this area, it was the greatest pain for people to die.

In ancient history, torture was inseparable from cool officials.

When Wu Zetian, the minister Di Renjie was falsely accused of rebellion, and the cool officials came to Junchen to preside over the trial, Di Renjie was forced to confess to torture, and secretly wrote a bloody complaint, and his son appealed to the court.

After Wu Zetian saw the pleading, he asked: Since you are not guilty, could it be that the painting on the indictment is fake?

Di Renjie replied sadly: If I hadn't confessed, how could I have survived until now?

During the period of imperial autocracy, the cool officials wielded the power of life and death, and the victims had no right to "remain silent"; Refusing to admit guilt will inevitably lead to torture and torture, or even death, but it is better to falsely accuse others to avoid immediate disasters, and then find an opportunity to retract your confession and defend your grievances.

But in fact, once he pleads guilty, if he wants to escape from the hands of the cool officials, it will be difficult to reach the sky, and he can only hope for a way to go beyond the lawsuit.

"Ahh Yes....! In one room, the screams were endless, Li Zhan was still humane, he did not use the cruel "sandalwood punishment", but asked Wei Chang to give the young couple the cage punishment first.

The so-called standing cage punishment was a commonly used torture tool in the Ming and Qing dynasties... The prisoner was shackled to the neck, and his body could only stand there for support, and it was impossible to sit on his knees.

Once a person is in the station, he will die within a day or two.

If the flail was raised or lowered by a few inches, the prisoner would either die of suffocation or bend his legs to support his body, and die of exhaustion in a short time; Therefore, bricks are generally placed under the feet of the prisoners in the standing cage, and the height of the bricks is used to control the time of death of the prisoners.

"Tell me who you really are... Otherwise you will die...! This is Wei Chang's voice.

Soon, a young voice trembled and explained: "We have told the truth, we are really ordinary Chang'an people, and we have not hidden it at all... Please believe us, everything we say is true, everything is true...! ”

After saying that, because of the pain, the young voice screamed again, and then fainted.

At this time, Li Zhan walked into this house, and when he saw Li Zhan coming in, Wei Chang immediately bowed down to Li Zhan's side and said, "Childe, this place is dirty, and the body of Childe's daughter should not come here." ”

Li Zhan nodded and said: "I know, but I have to come, this time the matter is too big, and now it involves the Lotus Society, Wei Chang splashed them with water, I want to say a few words to them." ”

"Obey the order...!" Wei Chang nodded, and shouted: "Bring water, splash these two people for me...!" ”

"Wow...!" With a basin of cold water, the two people who had been in a coma woke up again, and at this time, Li Zhan stood in front of the two and said, "Hello... My name is Li Zhan, and I am the brigade general of these people who have captured you back.

Now I will make it clear to you, first of all, it is impossible for you to escape with your mouth.

Because today's incident is too big, who asked you to abduct Yu Bao's daughter is something we must know, and this matter is related to the safety of Datang.

So if you think that as long as you keep your mouth hard, we can't do anything about you, and then let you go, I can tell you now that it is impossible, that is, to punish you to death, and we must also get an answer.

So I want you to know that you don't have any chances.

Now what you have to do is to tell the truth, if you don't tell the truth, then you will be tortured to death by us, now this station cage is the most basic, since you are hard-mouthed, then the next step is to Ling Chi.

Scrape off your flesh with a knife, let you bear the pain and not let you die, what you want is to make your life worse than death.

But... As long as you tell us everything you know, is it an order given to you by the Lotus Society to abduct Yu Bao's daughter, just provide it to us... In that case, I, Li Zhan, promise you that you will leave here safe and sound.

If you're worried about being hunted down, I can let you stay in Dunhuafang, where no one will hunt you down. ”

Speaking of this, Li Zhan stopped his voice, he looked at the little couple opposite, at this time the little couple was actually thinking wildly, and they were also measuring whether what Li Zhan said was true or false.

It's just that this little couple has always wanted to see a fake appearance in Li Zhan's eyes, but unfortunately, Li Zhan's eyes are full of incomparable firmness.

After about a pillar of incense, Li Zhan looked at the other party and didn't say anything, Li Zhan sighed and said, "Okay... I've given you enough time to think about it, so let's torture it.. Ling Chi, prepare the doctor, you must not let them die! ”

"Yes...!" Wei Chang bowed, then looked at Li Zhan and said, "Childe, don't stay here, it's too bloody...!" ”

"Well... I know, then I'll go out now, Wei Chang, this time the matter is too big, you must help me do it well, they will definitely not die before they ask what Gongzi wants. ”

Seriously, what Wei Chang said was very sure, and the little couple on the side shuddered.

Li Zhan nodded slightly, "Very good... Let's go...! ”

After speaking, Li Zhantou would not leave, and then saw Wei Chang beckoning, and a man walked out of the Tsing Yi guard...!
