. "Is this a human thing?" Xuan Shijing looked at the merchant coldly: "Without the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty fighting at the border, can you live to this day?" Can your parents, wife and children live in peace in Datang? Can you still be sure that your child is really your species? Don't take other people's efforts for granted, especially the sacrifices of the soldiers in Datang who are defending you with their lives, they are all worthy of awe, you are a despicable person, you are not worthy of lifting shoes for them! ”

Xuan Shijing personally experienced the battle of Shicheng, Gao Jun personally led the troops out of the city to deal with the Tubo army, and only a few people were left in the team of more than 200 people, how could he not be angry when he heard this merchant say such a thing.

Anger is anger, but Xuan Shijing is still calm down rationally, now is not the time to be angry with this person, the culprits are still Jing King Li Yuanjing and Sun Yaoting in the final analysis, so as long as Sun Yaoting falls, the revenge of the Shicheng soldiers will be avenged.

It's sad to think about it, the sacrifice of the soldiers of Shicheng was actually pushed out by their own people, how can this not make people feel cold.

After being slapped in the face, the merchant was honest, and his eyes began to avoid Xuan Shijing's gaze.

"I've been talking to you for so long, and I'm annoyed by this, so let's just torture it." Xuan Shijing said.

Impatient? The merchant was stunned when he heard Xuan Shijing's words, but when he heard that Xuan Shijing was going to torture him, he already had fear in his heart.

"Long'er, blindfold him." Xuan Shijing commanded.

Long'er took out her handkerchief, tore it in half, and then blindfolded the merchant's eyes.

"What are you going to do!" As soon as it was dark, the merchant could no longer see the scene in the torture cell.

"Don't worry, this punishment won't hurt." Xuan Shijing also wants to emulate others and fight a psychological war with this merchant.

Xuan Shijing whispered in Long'er's ear, "Go find some warm water." Then, he deliberately amplified his voice and ordered: "Shi Hu, find a wooden basin to come over, Master Hou, I am curious, how much blood is in this person's body?" So today, Master Hou wants to take a look, and I don't know if a wooden basin is enough. ”

Shi Hu and Long'er's movements were very quick, the warm water and the wooden basin were ready, and Shi Hu placed the wooden basin at the merchant's feet.

"Pull out his arm, Master Hou, I'm going to bleed him." Xuan Shijing said to Gao Jun.

Gao Jun listened to Xuan Shijing's words, and quickly loosened the rope that bound the merchant, and pulled out his arm.

When the merchant heard that Xuan Shijing was going to bleed him, he was already frightened, and as soon as the rope on his body was loosened, he struggled violently, how could Gao Jun let him break free like this, what the merchant said just now made Gao Jun hate him in his heart, and he showed no mercy in his hands after this action.

One hand grabbed his neck, and with just one move, he subdued the merchant on the chair, and Shi Hu picked up the hemp rope and tied him up again.

In the prison cell, there was no movement except for the sound of the merchant struggling, and the merchant stopped, only to find that the dark world was quiet and terrible.

"Hou Ye, Hou Ye." The merchant cried out uneasily.

Xuan Shijing ignored him.

In the prison cell, the clear and audible sound of "tick, tick", Xuan Shijing only lightly scratched the merchant's arm, and he didn't even scratch the skin, but the merchant's emotions were in extreme tension, and he didn't notice anything, he only heard the sound of ticking, and he thought in his heart that it was his own blood.

This merchant finally experienced the taste of calling the heavens and the earth ineffective.

"Master Hou, I said, I will say whatever you ask, what you want to know, I will say everything!" There was already a cry in the merchant's voice.

Long'er and Gao Jun Shihu on the side were contemptuous for a while.

Xuan Shijing naturally saw the expressions of the three of them, smiled, and didn't explain, just told Long'er to make a record.

Xuan Shijing: "What's your name?" ”

"Me, my name is Saturday."

Saturday? Good name, closed every day.

"Do you have a younger brother named Sunday?" Xuan Shijing asked.

"No, the youngest one only has a younger brother named Zhou Tian."

"What is the relationship between you and Sun Yaoting?"

"The little one often runs errands and sends letters, as you can see, he has private dealings with many dignitaries in Chang'an City, and His Royal Highness King Jing's letter to Lord Sun is also brought over by the small one, and His Royal Highness King Jing also specially instructed the small one, be sure to let Lord Sun do this thing in Shicheng more beautifully, Lord Hou, don't let the small blood go first."

"It's okay, Ben Hou guarantees that you can't die, how much do you know about Ben Hou's poisoning ten years ago? Say it all. ”

"Ten years ago, when His Royal Highness King Jing returned to Chang'an to meet the Emperor Taishang, he summoned the small one in the mansion, and asked the small one to find a way to mix into your mansion, waiting for an opportunity to poison you, but the small one observed the Hou Mansion before and after, and really couldn't get in, so he stared at the Xiaolian girl who was responsible for the procurement in the Hou Mansion, at that time she was worried about the money for her mother's treatment, and the small one gave her a large sum of money, and asked her to buy medicine for her mother. If she doesn't believe it, she can try it, and later, the little one doesn't know. ”

The beginning and end of the matter are similar to the results of Xuan Shijing's investigation, basically what the merchant said, Xuan Shijing knows, and now that there is living evidence, everything will turn from the secret to the light.

Xuan Shijing stepped forward and removed the handkerchief that was covering the merchant's eyes on Saturday.

Saturday regained his sight, and immediately turned his head to look at his arm, only to find that there was no wound on his arm at all, and the so-called ticking sound was just a rag in Gao Jun's hand dripping water into the wooden basin.

"You lied to me!" The merchant looked at Xuan Shijing on Saturday.

"Why don't I really give you a cut? I don't know what to do. Xuan Shijing said disdainfully: "Hurry up and draw the charge, what you said is no different from what this candidate investigated, Long'er, have you recorded it?" ”

"Write it down, little marquis." Long'er showed the recorded paper to Xuan Shijing.

"Yes, let him draw it, and then transcribe it separately in a while, one for Sun Yaoting and one for Li Yuanjing." Xuan Shijing said.

Long'er nodded, sat back in her chair again, and began to transcribe.

"What the hell do you want to do?" Xuan Shijing's actions made the merchant very puzzled on Saturday, this confession was enough to shake the court, why should it be written separately.

"I don't want to do anything for the time being, I just want to warn Li Yuanjing now, master, I'm back to Chang'an, I'm back with all my beards and tails, let him make less harm to me behind my back, otherwise, my master will kill him in minutes." Xuan Shijing said indifferently: "By the way, your master has been short of money recently." ”.
