Chapter 1034: Interrogation Room
The appearance of the assassin made Leng Feng a little unexpected, to be honest.
Although the power struggle in the Tang Dynasty is very filthy after being peeled off, there are still almost no people who dare to use assassins.
The closest to this time was the eldest grandson Wuji who sent assassins to assassinate him.
Although the assassin was sent by him, the eldest grandson Wuji did almost no leaks, and others could only suspect that it was him, but they could not identify it as him. Even Leng Feng only finalized the crime of the eldest grandson Wuji when he was saving Li Zhi.
The so-called power struggle is actually a masquerade of a group of people, all wearing masks and following the most basic rules to seek power. As for breaking the rules, it's just a clean job, and if someone finds out, what awaits him will be a group of attacks.
After all, everyone wears a mask of hypocrisy, and no one likes to take off the mask and show off the fierce face.
Li Shimin didn't like hard work, and Leng Feng didn't like it either, so after Leng Jing returned to the manor, Leng Feng handed over the power of command to his son. Although the shadow guards are slack, their abilities are trained by their father and brother themselves. Although the guards sent by Li Chengqian were slack, they must have given up their lives in this situation.
What's more, after Li Chengqian learned about this, he also sent a team of 10,000 composed of the forbidden army and the dragon tooth guard, and the new firearms were all assembled, and it was Tang Jin who led the team.
With such a powerful manor in the world, it is no exaggeration to say that there is no need to worry about encountering Turkic invaders.
Leng Feng was not worried, but the leader of the secret guards, Zero, had dark circles under his eyes. After returning from the palace, he swept the beloved white jade inkstone on the table to the ground.
The Assassin appeared in the manor without warning, the Shadow Guard was punished, and how could the Secret Guard escape?
Li Chengqian was furious at the presence of the assassin, and the secret guards were not aware of it at all. Especially thinking that the target of the assassin is likely to be the father, the queen mother or the master, it is even more smoky.
Remembering the emperor's words of "bring your head to see", Zero entered the secret guard's dungeon with a black face.
The guarded dungeon was dark and damp, and the torture instruments were rusty. Since the establishment of the Guard, there have been very few annoying prisoners in the dungeon. And the dungeon, which has been deserted for a long time, finally welcomed its first guest today.
The guards have no life, and what represents their identity is the number.
Seeing Nine Five Seven and Seven Four Seven scratching their heads at the door, Zero was angry and shouted, "Let me interrogate the assassins, what are you scratching your heads here for?" ”
Nine Five Seven and Seven Four Seven raised their heads, saw the boss, bowed down and saluted: "Boss, this damn assassin can't let go at all, as soon as the towel with his mouth is pulled out, he wants to bite his tongue and kill himself." We really don't know what to do with such a dead man. ”
Zero kicked open the door of the dungeon, turned around and whispered: "If you can't pry it open, you have to pry it, Your Majesty is so angry for the first time in many years, if you can't find it, let alone Lao Tzu, even your heads are not stable." ”
Hearing this, the corners of Nine Five-Seven and Seven Forty-Seven suddenly twitched. The current emperor is merciful, and even if they mess up their mission, they will not easily sentence them to death. Correspondingly, using death to spur them on is enough to show how bad things are this time.
Zero was about to go inside, but heard the sound of the guards banging their fists on their breastplates outside the wall.
This is the secret stronghold of the secret guards, and the secret guards hardly salute outsiders, which means that the person who comes can only be the emperor.
Extrapolating to this, Zero hurried out and waited for the arrival of the emperor.
But when he saw the comer, Zero's eyes widened. He could never have imagined that the Easy King would come to them in person. As the most secret organization in the Tang Dynasty, it is impossible for anyone other than the emperor to come here.
Although he was puzzled, Zero still hurriedly saluted.
After signaling that the three of them did not need to be polite, Leng Feng looked at the secret guard's dungeon and was very satisfied with the rusty torture instruments piled up in the corner.
This shows that the secret guards used the dungeon very rarely, and it was not the kind of organization that persecuted officials and criminals. If it was Zhou Xing's style of acting that was accustomed to bending into tricks, then there would be no need for the secret guard to exist.
Looking at the position of their representatives, Leng Feng's gaze moved to Zero's body: "Zero, right, I remember that the emperor said that you secret guards all use numbers as their identities, and the leader of the secret guards is called zero." ”
Zero nodded, and said suspiciously: "King Xiaoyao, please forgive me for talking too much, how did you know about our stronghold?" ”
Leng Feng smiled and took out a token from his arms and threw it to Zero: "Naturally, the emperor told me, this king is idle and bored, and if you want to take over this matter, you just follow my orders." ”
Hearing this, Zero was overjoyed. With the King of Freedom to deal with this matter, even if it is messed up, several of them will be able to survive under the protection of the King of Freedom. No matter how angry Your Majesty is, it is impossible to use a knife against them.
Nine-Five-Seven and Seven-Four-Seven also thought of this, and hurriedly pushed open the door of the dungeon, leading the Easy King in.
In the first interrogation room, the surviving Assassin was tied to a torture rack, and every joint of his body was bound by ropes. It may be that he has been locked up for a long time, and there is a faint fishy smell coming from the interrogation room, which is probably because this guy has not been able to hold back.
After looking at the observation hole for a while, Leng Feng walked in with the three of them.
Hearing the voice, the Assassin glanced ahead with great difficulty, and then closed his eyes in a dejected manner.
If you don't light a fire in the dungeon in the cold winter, you will freeze to death. Seeing the fire, Leng Feng moved his chair to the stove and looked at the assassin with his legs crossed as he roasted the fire.
Zero brought a pot of hot tea and took the opportunity to say: "That's it, the lowly people originally planned to torture it, but as long as this guy is let go, he will try his best to commit suicide." It's a pity that your general's hand is a bit heavy, so he left a living hole, and there are no other clues except him. ”
Leng Feng nodded, and threw the soldering iron on the ground into the stove.
The torture of cannon burning appeared in the Shang and Zhou dynasties, and unlike simple whipping, a red-hot soldering iron can leave the most lasting pain, so there is usually a soldering iron in the interrogation room.
After moving the bamboo chair under his buttocks, Leng Feng had an idea again, and ordered Zero to find a few bamboo sticks.
After the soldering iron in the furnace burned red, Leng Feng took the soldering iron and approached the assassin and shook the soldering iron in his hand: "I know that you are not afraid of this thing, in fact, I prepared this thing to prevent you from biting your tongue and killing yourself." You know? People who bite their tongues and commit suicide are actually more likely to die of pain. Given the training you've received, you can still bear this kind of pain. I'm going to prepare this iron to stop your bleeding after you bite your tongue. You can't speak without your tongue, but you can still write. Trust me, you're going to open your mouth. ”
Picking up the bamboo skewer on the table, Leng Feng smiled and stabbed the assassin's face with the tip: "Does it hurt?" ”
