Chapter 833: Execution at the East Gate
The court was suddenly silent, and no one dared to help Pei Yu speak.
The emperor opened his mouth to convict and conspire against him, and no one could refute it.
Otherwise, it is the conclusion of the same party.
Jiang Yuanhan exuded his majesty, and calmly ordered: "For the sake of Pei Xiang, he is an important minister of his father and emperor, and he rarely makes mistakes, for the sake of Daqi and the royal family, he has always been conscientious, and he is hereby punished for thinking about it behind closed doors at home for a month." ”
"We're thanking you, Lord Longen!" Pei Yu immediately stood up and thanked the emperor.
The early dynasty was over, and Xiao Fangzi shook off the dust, stepped forward and shouted: "Retreat!" ”
The hundred officials knelt down again: "The ministers send your majesty and the princess!" ”
Wen Qingzhu got up, took Jasmine's hand, and walked down the hall.
Leaving the main hall, Jiang Yuanhan immediately walked to Wen Qingzhu's side and asked carefully, "Sister, is it right for me to do this?" ”
Wen Qingzhu stopped abruptly and frowned at him: "You are now the emperor, you must call yourself me!" ”
"But now there is no one else?"
As soon as the words fell, a thunderous voice came from behind him: "Your Majesty! ”
Jiang Yuanhan immediately turned around and saw an attendant with Lei Xiao hurrying over.
He immediately straightened his face and waited for the thunder to come.
Wen Qingzhu couldn't hold back a smile: "Your Majesty can see it, people come to you anytime and anywhere." ”
When he arrived in the study, Jiang Yuanhan didn't sit down, waiting for Wen Qingzhu to sit down first.
However, Wen Qingzhu didn't plan to stay, but said to Jiang Yuanhan: "Bai Di is still waiting for me over there, you and Master Lei will talk first." ”
"Sister, won't you tell me what happened just now?" Jiang Yuanhan didn't expect her to leave.
Lei Xiao looked at Wen Qingzhu, understood what she wanted to do, and helped her explain: "Your Majesty will discuss with the ministers first. ”
With him opening, Jiang Yuanhan didn't want to say anything, and watched Wen Qingzhu leave.
As soon as she left, Lei Xiao glanced left and right, and Xiao Fangzi had a great eye to retreat with all the palace people.
As soon as the door closed, there was silence.
Lei Xiao said directly: "Your Majesty, since the princess has blocked the front for you, at this time, you must immediately start cultivating Your Majesty's own power!" ”
Returning to the Qianyuan Palace, Wen Qingzhu saw a very unexpected guest.
"I've seen the princess!"
Wen Qingzhu hurriedly walked over and helped her sit down: "Why did the princess come to the palace?" ”
Lei Qi Niang's complexion is not good, but her spirit is not bad.
She grabbed Wen Qingzhu's sleeve and said: "Princess, the king of the county really doesn't have any intention of rebellion, if it weren't for me and the child, he wouldn't have been seriously injured, and when the emperor comes out of the funeral, we will leave the capital immediately!" ”
Wen Qingzhu smiled bitterly: "Who told you this news?" The matter of the early dynasty today has reached you so quickly? ”
Lei Qiniang was startled by these words, and quickly explained: "Don't misunderstand, princess, it was the fourth brother who told me, we really don't have anything else in mind." ”
Without waiting for Wen Qingzhu to reply, Lei Shuo next to him couldn't help but speak: "Qi Niang! That's not what Qingzhu meant! Her purpose is Pei Yu! It's not you husband and wife! ”
Wen Qingzhu nodded, comforting Lei Qiniang and said: "Brother Yan is a measured person, he told you that you must have a good idea, you rushed over in such a hurry, did someone not look for King Ningjun and found you?" ”
Lei Qiniang lowered her head and didn't dare to reply.
Lei Shuo next to him blinked, turned to Lei Qi Niang and asked, "Who is still looking for you?" At this time, yourselves are having a hard time! What else can I help others! ”
When she said this, Lei Qiniang didn't dare to speak more and more, and only called this veil uneasily.
Wen Qingzhu thought about it for a while, and there seemed to be only a few people who could have a relationship with the people of the county king's mansion.
It can still be said that Dinglei Qi Niang entered the palace to show loyalty, then there is only that family.
She gently patted Lei Qi Niang and said, "The Li family is overturned, and all the sentences that should be sentenced have been sentenced, and the old things will not be brought up again, unless someone is thinking about crooked thoughts." ”
"No, there is no crooked mind." Lei Qiniang hurriedly shook her head.
Wen Qingzhu sighed: "You defend them like this, it must be someone from the Liu family, right?" ”
Lei Qiniang opened her mouth and wanted to deny it, but for someone like Wen Qingzhu, denying it would only make her unhappy.
Finally, he nodded slowly.
Wen Qingzhu was okay, he had already guessed in his heart.
But Lei Shuo was different, and immediately exploded: "The people of the Liu family still have the face to find you!" ”
"Sixth sister, don't get excited, the people who are still willing to have dealings with the county king are the only ones left in the Liu family, I don't want the county king to have no relatives at all, and they will help each other in the future."
Lei Qiniang hurriedly explained, taking Lei Shuo's hand and shaking it gently.
Seeing her like this, Lei Shuo was angry and poked Qi Niang's head: "What kind of relatives of the Liu family are the county kings!" Li Ran is living extremely miserable now, and he didn't see them send anyone to take a look! Instead, I came to you! The left and right are not looking at the county king's throne and want to cling to one or two. ”
After two inattentions, he poked Lei Qi Niang's forehead into a red spot, Lei Shuo quickly stopped, feeling distressed, and his face was still angry: "You are our Lei family!" There are our relatives in the county king's mansion, can't it be compared to the Liu family! ”
Lei Qiniang let go of her hand, and her eyes dimmed: "The Lei family is good, but the Lei family is a pure minister, and the identity of the county king is here, he doesn't want to involve the Lei family, if it is because of being close to us, the emperor has suspicion, this is our fault." ”
"Hey......" Wen Qingzhu really didn't know what to say.
is such a sensible girl, she puts herself in her shoes and doesn't want to affect others and make her life so hard.
It's so distressing.
Wen Qingzhu stood up: "Don't worry, the emperor will not suspect King Ningjun, what are you doing, we all know that this capital is not so simple." ”
Lei Qiniang looked at her with a grateful face, but saw Wen Qingzhu become serious: "But if you are so weak and blindly think about others, it will make others think that you are a soft persimmon, and you can easily handle it, but you will bully you more and more!" Now that the king of the county is injured and recuperating, you should support the king's mansion, first of all, you have to think about the king and the child. ”
"That's right! That's it! Lei Shuo hurriedly nodded in agreement.
Seeing off the Lei Shuo sisters, Wen Qingzhu specially ordered someone to send Lei Qiniang all the way back to the county king's mansion in a sedan chair.
After waiting for a short time, Bai Di came in and reported the palace affairs to Wen Qingzhu.
"At present, a total of 126 palace people have been arrested, and seven have died by hanging. According to the punishment arrangement of the responsibility, please take a look at the princess. ”
Bai Di held a booklet in both hands, and the green pottery went over to bring it and sent it to Wen Qingzhu.
After looking through it carefully, Wen Qingzhu was very satisfied.
In such a short period of time, all the causes of the sinful slaves have been investigated.
This ability is not something that ordinary people can have.
Wen Qingzhu closed the booklet, turned his head and asked Bai Di: "Then what do you plan to start the execution?" ”
"Today!" Bai Di raised his head and looked calm, "And I plan to execute at the east gate, so that everyone can see what the end of betrayal is!" ”
Wen Qingzhu thought back to the last few people, and marked the punishment, which was extremely cruel.
She hesitated, but after a moment agreed to Bai Di's plan.
In the middle of the afternoon, at the east gate of the palace, a cauldron was erected.
The pot was filled with cold water, and only after a few sin slaves were helped into the pot did the fire start to light underneath.
The fire was raging, and the people who were tied up were terrified, but they could only endure the heat of the water getting hotter and hotter, and finally they died of high temperatures.
There are still hundreds of sin slaves kneeling on the right, some can't stand it and faint, some go crazy directly, and some even vomit uncontrollably.
There was the sound of horses' hooves behind him, and Bai Di looked back, and the person who came was the county lord of Pingshu.
She turned over, looked at the cauldron, and then turned back to stare at the white flute: "You dare to use the torture abolished by Taizu in the palace!" ”
Bai Di bowed his head and blessed his body to apologize.
Liang Pingshu saw her like this, and became more and more angry: "Could it be that Qingzhu gave you power and let you do this?" ”
This time, Bai Di raised his head and looked at her quietly: "County Lord, these people are all people who directly help spies and assassins and murder the emperor, according to the law, they should be guilty, but the executioners of the Criminal Department and the Prudent Criminal Department have been arranged until seven days later, and the slaves and maids are arranged, and they are judged in advance." ”
"Seven, seven days later......" Liang Pingshu couldn't help but take a step back.
Liang Pingshu was not in the palace that day, and she didn't know how dangerous the situation was.
Bai Di also understood: "The main purpose of the county lord and the slave maid is not to use punishment, but to deter, so that everyone in the world knows the majesty of imperial power." ”
Liang Pingshu saw the cauldron out of her eyes, and the water in it was already boiling.
There were several people lying inside, still dressed in the clothes of eunuchs and palace maids, and there was even a person she was familiar with.
Aunt Yui.
Everyone's exposed skin turned tofu white, crumpled and bulging, as if it could be lifted with a light tug.
But Liang Pingshu knew that these were all living people, and their skins were all cooked, as if they were cooking food.
At the thought of food, Liang Pingshu hunched over and began to vomit sour water.
Bai Di immediately instructed the palace people: "Go and get a sedan chair and send the county lord to the princess." ”
Liang Pingshu turned his back to her and raised his hand to refuse: "No! I'll go by myself! ”
She walked away quickly, and just turned the corner, she met Cui Xiushan who was leading the carriage over.
The first carriage was filled with wooden boxes the size of a human figure, and the next few carriages, covered with canvas, took on various strange shapes.
Liang Pingshu stopped abruptly and looked at these things in a daze.
"County Lord?" Cui Xiushan hurriedly turned around to stop the convoy and ran in front of her.
Liang Pingshu slowly raised her head, grabbed his arms and asked, "Why did you come to the east gate?" What are these things? ”
Cui Xiushan was silent, he didn't know how to explain.
Liang Pingshu pushed him away, turned his head and ran to the side of the carriage, took out the sword in his hand, directly cut the rope on the flatbed, and pushed the lid of the wooden box with the hilt of the sword with his backhand.
There was a white cloth inside, and a gold ingot made of yellow paper.
Liang Pingshu suddenly understood that these boxes were used to hold corpses!
She ran to the cars behind and cut the ropes.
The canvas fell to the ground, and the sword in Liang Pingshu's hand fell to the ground, covering her mouth and retreating.
These were torture instruments she had only seen in books!
Liang Pingshu began to be frightened and retreated again and again, Cui Xiushan hurriedly ran over and helped her.
"Go away!" Liang Pingshu only felt that her blood was cold, and she pushed Cui Xiushan away resentfully.
looked at him incredulously: "You are the same person as Bai Di!" Do you know that these torture instruments are all forbidden by Qi Taizu! Wouldn't it be nice to just kill them! ”
"County Lord, have you forgotten Lu Lei? How did he get hurt? How difficult is it to get rid of the poison in the body, do you forget who caused it? ”
Cui Xiushan didn't want to say this, but he had to say at this time: "If it weren't for the princess's last resort, now the emperor's head has been cut off by them, Lu Lei Weiyu, and the king of Ningjun who almost died, the Huns are a hundred times more cruel than us!" These palace people knew that the Xiongnu were going to murder the emperor, and for the sake of money and future, they still rebelled! Damn them! ”
Liang Pingshu's face turned white, and she turned her head and ran.
Some broken images uncontrollably appeared in her mind, the terrifying existence that made her soul tremble at the thought of it.
When she was a child, she inadvertently broke into the side courtyard of Qianyuan Palace.
I saw all kinds of strange torture instruments, each of which had a person on it, and everyone was incomplete.
