In the gloomy prison, a few oil lamps flickered on and off.

The hideous statue of the god of Gaotao stands motionless in the fireplace.

A terrible howl echoed in the silence of the prison.

One of the prisoners shuddered as they listened, and reflexively curled up into the haystack of the cell.

But most of them lie numbly, listening to the wails of others.

"Patrol the prison! There are grievances, and there are repentances! An official carrying an oil lamp walked weakly through the long corridor of the prison cell, making a routine announcement.

But when the prisoners heard this, they were even more frightened.

Some people even buried their heads deep in the haystack, not daring to probe.

The three words of Zhijinwu, just like the name of the devil, made them tremble, and the two trembled.

Since the Han Dynasty, Zhi Jinwu and his predecessor Lieutenant Qing have been the nightmare of civil and military officials and powerful nobles.

If he is arrested by the court lieutenant, he can still have a chance to defend himself, and there is the possibility of appealing.

Even if the evidence of the crime is conclusive, they can enjoy certain preferential treatment according to their status, title and official position.

But he was arrested by Ji Jingo......

Everyone, whether it is a prince or a nobleman, or a pawn of a peddler.

In front of Zhijingo, all are equal.

Equal access to torture, abuse, flogging, and torture.

And the successive Zhijingo (lieutenants), each of them is famous for his murder, which is enough to stop children crying at night.

Zhi Du, Ning Cheng, Wang Wenshu, Xianxuan......

The names of these predecessors, even now, are enough to make those who hear them tremble and those who see them fearful.

The hands of every Zhijinwu are stained with the blood of nobles, royal relatives, heroes, and heroes.

Wang Mang is no exception.

At this moment, he stood at the door of the cell, staring at the gloomy prison of the poor people who were trembling and curled up in a ball.

In my heart, there is no pity, and there is no sympathy.

Because, all the people who can arrest Ji Jinwu are scum!

The garbage of society, the enemy of order, the violator of the law.

They are not tyrannical people who run rampant in the local area, bully others, and prey on the common people, so that they are known to be the most vicious people known to Zhijingo.

They are bandits, ruffians, and scoundrels who don't know what a conscience is.

And more are those noble children who shouted that the golden key was born, but they didn't know self-love, were bored, and had to provoke Han law, and took the pain and life of the common people as fun.

For these people, Wang Mang has always felt that killing them all is the best solution.

"Have the Qin prisoners Gongsun Rou, Huang Ran and others confessed?" Wang Mang turned his head and asked the warden beside him.

"Returning to Lingjun, this generation has already confessed, this is a confession!" The warden smiled and took out a silk book and handed it to Wang Mang.

Wang Mang took it, held it in his hand, looked at it, and then snorted coldly: "What kind of confession is this?" ”

What the hell is the confession talking about?

What Gongsun Rou personally commanded?

What servant once asked Gongsun Rou to go to Nanling to apologize?

Fooling small children?

Even if it's true, it has to be fake!

Because......

Today the Son will not believe these confessions!

In the eyes of the Son of Heaven, this action against Nanling Xiucai Zhang Yi is clearly a long-existing, well-organized, and orderly conspiracy against the Han and the Son of Heaven!

And his task is to help the Son of Heaven find out this conspiracy against the Han Dynasty, attempt to rebel, subvert the society and the country, and bring all the traitors to justice.

Even if, in fact, there is no such group.

Wang Mang also has to create such a group.

Otherwise, he would not be able to give an account to the Son of Heaven!

Now someone told him that it was just Gongsun Rou who was fooling around?

Is this insulting to him? Or an insult to the Son of Heaven!?

He stepped on the confession under his feet with one foot: "This generation is stubborn, and you have to wait for a strict interrogation, and you must find out who instigated, planned, and plotted their conspiracy to frame Xiucai, slander the monarch's father, and sabotage the country's materials!" ”

When the warden heard this, his eyes trembled, and he immediately fell to the ground and bowed his head: "The lower officer knows!" Please give the next three days to the lower officials, and you must find out this matter clearly! Check it out! ”

Wang Mang looked at this warden coldly, a jailer who was famous for torture and extortion of confessions in the Jinwu Yamen, and said to him: "This official advises you, don't pretend that they may 'resurrect' the idea!" ”

"This case was personally entrusted to this official by His Majesty!"

"This officer has made a military order in front of His Majesty! This case must be investigated thoroughly! ”

"If it doesn't happen, I'm afraid this official will have to go to Dongshi, but before this official goes to the execution ground, he will definitely bring all the people who are unfavorable in handling the case to justice!"

"Got it?"

"No!" When the warden heard this, he paused deeply.

He knew very well that this Zhijin Wu was never joking with him!

This time it's for real!

He immediately raised his head and said with a hideous face: "The lower official knows!" Please rest assured, if you can't find the conspiracy of these traitors within three days, you don't need to ask the officials for their crimes, and the officials will apologize for their crimes! ”

"Good!" Wang Mang's face turned soft, and he said: "With this consciousness at your feet, the official will be relieved!" ”

"Holding Jinwu, Your Majesty's Jinwu, Your Majesty needs us to sniff out the traitor and eradicate the lawless! We are the shield of the Son of Heaven, the sword of the Son of Heaven, and the eagle and dog of the Son of Heaven! He said to the left and right, "You need to keep it in mind at all times!" ”

"Sniff out the traitor! Eradicate lawlessness! Everyone immediately shouted in unison: "Swear to be Your Majesty's eagle dog, Sheji lackey!" ”

"That's good!" Wang Mang nodded and said, "As for the fact that these people confessed to the Nanling County Commander Bo Rong, and they also secretly helped their generation......

He turned to look at an official and said to him: "Wang Duwei, you take people to Nanling immediately, arrest Nanling County Commander Bo Rong, and pass on the county governor Yang Wangzhi and others to come to the official office!" ”

"Then send someone to communicate with Zhang Zizhong, the leader of Xinfeng, and ask him if there are any other missing criminals who have not been arrested...... If so, arrest them all and try them well! ”

This is to sell well, and its subtext is nothing more than this: Do you have any enemies in Zhang Shizhong? If so, please inform him of his name, and the Yamen of Zhijinwu is willing to punish one or two for the servants.

"No!" The officials responded with a bang, and their morale was high.

Because, Wang Mang's attitude revealed an important thing - this case, the Son of Heaven will be poor to the end!

To find out to the end!

And this is exactly what the entire Zhijinwu Yamen has been looking forward to for a long time.

It has been many years since he was imprisoned.

It's time for the world to recall once again the horror of Nati Riding and the prestige of Zhijinwu!

What's more important is that only big cases can be promoted quickly.

As for the prime minister or something......

In the past, everyone may be jealous, but now with the endorsement of the Son of Heaven, the prime minister is a p?

Are there still few prime ministers who have been imprisoned in Jinwu's prison?
