Chapter 12
In addition to the routine interrogation every day, Zhang could only stay in the dark cell, and after three days of staying, she finally couldn't stand it anymore.
"Come on, I'll be honest, let me out." Her fear had long since made her forget her children, and she was out now, and she would say anything if she could let her out.
Wu Benlin soon came when he heard the news.
"Let her out." Wu Benlin was extremely patient, and he knew that ordinary people would definitely not be able to stand it. The sound of animals could be heard in that cell at night, and the lack of light made it particularly frightening.
When Zhang saw the light, he was finally less afraid. I quickly found a place to sit down, poured a sip of tea, and drank the shock.
"Tell me the truth." Wu Benlin waited patiently for the Zhang family to finish drinking the tea, and the fear in his eyes subsided a little before he spoke.
"I'm telling the truth, and if you want to hear it, I can repeat it." Zhang felt less frightened, and his sanity returned.
Wu Benlin sneered, "Zhang, think about it again, is that so?" ”
Tonight, he was dressed in black, like a Shura from hell, which inexplicably scared Zhang.
"Yes." Zhang gritted his teeth and refused to admit it. She would never admit that she was scared, she had lived a handful of years, and had never seen anything.
"Someone, tie her up." Wu Benlin was so impatient that the Zhang family grinded out, and the day after tomorrow at the latest, the emperor wanted a result, and he couldn't accompany the Zhang family anymore.
When Zhang was tied to the pillar, she didn't feel anything, and when she saw Wu Benlin pick up the red soldering iron, she was immediately frightened and had goosebumps, and cold sweat broke out on her head.
"Don't, it's Mrs. Lu, he asked me to do this, it's all his will, I just did it." Before Wu Benlin put the soldering iron on Zhang's body, Zhang himself said it, and he said it very quickly, for fear that if she said it slowly, Wu Benlin's soldering iron would already be placed on her.
Sure enough, it is these torture instruments that can make people tell the truth better.
When Wu Benlin heard these words from Zhang, he smiled coldly with disdain and put down the soldering iron.
"And what did you do with it?" This is the purpose of Wu Benlin's questioning, and only when the Lu family is executed can it be convincing.
"It's that step shake, the step shake is coated with hair oil, and a little medicine is sprinkled on it, as long as Concubine Wan touches that step shake, her child will definitely be gone." The Zhang family didn't expect that Old Lady Lu would play conspiracy tricks, and she would be more powerful than her, a woman in the inner house.
"Aren't you afraid that Concubine Wan will let the imperial doctor check that step shake first?" What made Wu Benlin feel strange was that the Imperial Doctor had already checked it, and there was no poison on the step.
"Concubine Wan's mother died early, and that step shake was often worn by her mother during her lifetime, and she must not have thought so much when she saw things and thought about people. What's more, if she touches the step shake, the poison on it will naturally seep into her body, and the step shake is non-toxic. "This is also calculated by Old Lady Lu, his own daughter, he still knows a little.
Wu Benlin finally understood, and I have to say that this trick is really clever, and even the imperial doctor can't find out.
However, what Wu Benlin wanted was Zhang's words, and with these confessions, he could give an account to the emperor.
Emperor Renhe was very satisfied with the results of the interrogation of Dali Temple, and immediately let Jinyiwei surround the Lu Mansion, and then issued an order.
When Gonggong Li went to the Lu family to announce the decree, the Lu family didn't react to what happened.
Emperor Renhe was afraid that there would be a change in the middle, so he sent the Imperial Forest Army to Lu Mansion to arrest people.
When the Imperial Forest Army arrested everyone together, Gonggong Li announced: Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict, the Lu family plotted to kill the emperor's heir, now there is Zhang's confession, the evidence is conclusive, the Lu family is full of doors, should be beheaded after the autumn, however, I remember the past merits of the Lu family, where the Lu family has an official position and their wives do not need to ask for beheading, Qin this.
Emperor Renhe's move can be described as killing three birds with one stone, which can not only get rid of the Lu family's henchmen, but also leave the available talents behind, and also get a good reputation for wisdom.
Old lady Lu couldn't believe that in just three days, the Zhang family had already confessed.
What a stupid woman, she knew that she would not have been allowed to do this in the first place.
It's a pity that Mrs. Lu doesn't know that the husband is not guilty, but he is guilty. Even if the Lu family didn't do anything, Emperor Renhe didn't plan to let the Lu family go.
In the end, only Mrs. Lu and the servants around him were arrested in Dali Temple, Mrs. Lu understood that the emperor wanted to deal with him from beginning to end, he was in a high position, and assisted the prince, the emperor was afraid that after the prince ascended the throne, he would become his puppet and listen to him in everything.
Heh, is he so powerful? It made the emperor so jealous.
When Lu Wan heard that the emperor was originally going to behead the Lu family, but in the end he took away the old lady Lu, she understood, it turned out that the emperor wanted to use the child in her womb to deal with the Lu family.
Sure enough, the king is like a tiger, the emperor has no heart at all, and even his own children can be murdered and used. Now that she has the value of being used by the emperor, she must seize this opportunity and plan for herself, otherwise how can she be worthy of her dead child.
After Lu Zheng knew that Old Lady Lu had done such a thing, although he wanted to rescue Old Lady Lu, the evidence was conclusive, and he really didn't know how to refute it, and he had no intention of justifying.
He just felt glad that he wasn't all over the place, otherwise, how could he be worthy of his wife and children.
Lu Jinwen and the Wang family have not given up looking for Lu Jinjing, but so many days have passed, and they still can't find anyone, and Wang's body is no longer good.
Lu Yue knew that her parents were fine, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, now that she was pregnant, she really shouldn't worry too much.
After the Liu family learned about the Lu family, they were glad that they did not have much contact with the Lu family.
Mrs. Lu and Zhang's cells are next to each other, and since Mrs. Lu also came, Zhang didn't dare to talk to Mrs. Lu, but she wanted to know the situation of her son and daughter, so she couldn't help but speak.
"Fight for them, is there anything wrong?" Zhang asked wryly.
"They're fine, only we will be beheaded in the entire Lu family." Old lady Lu no longer has the strength, in this last moment, he just wants to be quiet and reminisce about his life.
At this time, Lu Jinjing, who was in Yangzhou, didn't know that almost the Lu family was gone, her father, and her relatives were gone.
She followed Yueniang to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting all day long, for such a long time, for a four-year-old child, the memory is not very good, and the memory of relatives is not so profound.
