Chapter 479: Triage of the Three Divisions (Medium)
There were bursts of screams from the trial hall of Dali Temple. This is a normal thing. After all, I don't know how many cases have been tried here. Not to mention the use of torture during the trial. It's just the killing stick that was played at the beginning of the hall. I don't know how many people were beaten.
But. Today is a little different. If that's true. All he could say was screaming. It's just too miserable.
Speaking of which. That's a bit of an incredible. This minister Wang is from the Qi family. And look at what is written in his dossier. He is still an "old man" who has followed Qi Jiguang for more than five years. And it is also very brave to go into battle and kill the enemy. However. It's hard to imagine such a man. This is true today. So weak.
The most suspicious person is Feng Bao. He knew best what Minister Wang was like. Maybe it's the reason for Minister Wang. Maybe it's Feng Bao's reason. In a word. When Feng Bao asked people to torture Minister Wang. None of the punishments used are those that once used, they will be missing arms and legs. Most of them are punishments that are not visible from the skin.
But. Even so. Dongchang has tried prisoners for more than 100 years. The way to make people miserable but not to be seen by others is to have as much as you want. These are not the so-called gritting your teeth and enduring to get through.
However. This minister Wang really deserves to be a man from the Qi family's army. In front of Feng Bao's punishment. It lasted two hours. It's a relent.
on this. Even Feng Bao himself had to admire. Afterwards. He began to ask the minister to say that the matter was commanded by Gao Gong and the like.
But. Minister Wang's performance today was too surprising to Feng Bao. Even just now. The words shouted by Minister Wang had already made Feng Bao lose face. But Feng Bao, who had a very good atmosphere, still couldn't help but be suspicious.
It's just that. Minister Wang suddenly changed his words just now. But Feng Bao never knew. What is the reason for him to be like this? Someone made sense. This is highly likely. But Feng Bao didn't believe in this too much. After all, what kind of person is Liu Ziqiang, the secretary of the Criminal Department. Feng Bao also knew it in his heart. As long as there is no warrant from the court or the emperor. Even the king of heaven and Lao Tzu don't want to go to the prison of the Criminal Department. And Liu Ziqiang. It's such a person who doesn't eat hard and soft. Feng Bao naturally didn't believe that anyone could have that good eloquence. It makes sense, Liu Ziqiang asked him to open the net.
But. In addition, Feng Bao really couldn't figure out why Minister Wang would suddenly change his words. After all, things are so big these days. Regardless of the outcome of this triage. The king's ministers are almost certain to die. Not to mention that now he has been dragged into this incomparably complicated piece by Feng Bao. It has also involved countless human lives.
Faced with such a road of certain death. Minister Wang didn't understand it in his heart. But no matter how strong people are. When faced with death. It's always going to get vulnerable. True. Although the minister Wang is not afraid of danger on the battlefield. Fight your way to the enemy. But there are many such people. There are also a lot of people who have entered the East Factory. But there are not many people who can stand up to the service of those people in the East Factory. Minister Wang is no exception.
Facing death. Minister Wang still accepted Feng Bao's seemingly unreliable at all. Even very optimistic advice.
Feng Bao was wondering about this matter in his heart. He had already discussed it with Minister Wang. But now Minister Wang has suddenly changed his mind. Feng Bao didn't have any idea in his heart now.
Originally. This killing stick is going to be fought no matter what. But the angry Feng Bao didn't expect it. Minister Wang, who has already changed his mind. But he shouted so loudly and let the officials beat him. There was also an invisibly more anger towards Feng Bao in his heart. This made Feng Bao even more unable to succeed.
Zhang Fan and Ge Shouli who were present could see it. From now on. Feng Bao has already lost.
It's just ten sticks. Let's be honest. For a military man like Minister Wang, it is not painful at all. But nowadays. But the king was lying on the ground. The pain in my mouth was still exhaling. He just wouldn't get up. It was as if the ten sticks had crippled him. This scene made Feng Bao feel even more angry.
"Get on my knees." Feng Bao shouted loudly. "Minister Wang. If you don't come up again. We're going to let people beat you again. And it's to the death. ”
Feng Bao said so. Minister Wang slowly got up and knelt down. It's just that his movements are as slow as an old man. There was still pain on his face.
"Minister Wang." I saw that he was on his knees. Feng Bao began the interrogation. didn't ask Zhang Fan and Ge Shouli on both sides if they had anything to say. He spoke to himself. "Yesterday. What are you going to do when you enter the palace. ”
"I'm going into the palace to report on the defense of the northern frontier." Minister Wang seems to be back to square one.
"Bulletin." Feng Bao smiled contemptuously. "You don't have any paperwork with you. What to preach. And you're armed with a blade. Sneaky outside the Qianqing Gate. So what's going on. ”
"That dagger is my family heirloom. Why should I carry it with me? Minister Wang continued to quibble. Let alone. There are no rules in the army. Sergeants are not allowed to carry daggers. ”
"I'm still talking here." Feng Bao picked up the shocking wood on the case in front of him and slapped it vigorously. Bellowed. "You're wandering in front of the Qianqing Gate with a sharp blade. Seeing that Jinyiwei went over to investigate, he actually ran away. It's clear that there is a ghost in the heart. Say it. You want to assassinate Your Majesty. ”
"Assassinate the Emperor." Minister Wang seemed to have heard something very funny. "The emperor is guarded by brocade guards. And there are a lot of people. And I'm alone. What ability can you do to assassinate the emperor? If only I had that ability. I wouldn't have been in the army for five years and still just a small captain. ”
"You still won't say." Feng Bao saw that things had completely deviated from the trajectory he had set in advance. I simply stopped doing what I said before. "Someone. Follow me on the stick. ”
"Grandpa Feng." Zhang Fan on the side saw this. Quickly spoke. "The king's minister has not said anything. The father-in-law put on the stick. I'm afraid it's not good. ”
"Lord Zhang. Don't be deceived by such people. Feng Bao looked at Minister Wang hatefully. Said. "This kind of person. The mouth is very hard. You don't have to be tortured to tell the truth. ”
"Father-in-law. Zhang Fan understands this in his heart. It's just ......," Zhang Fan said here. looked at Ge Shouli, who was sitting there. He leaned his head towards Feng Bao. Whispered. "Just now. Kud-sama is also there. And Lord Ge is the imperial history of the left capital. Its role is to supervise. If this matter is played by Lord Ge to the Queen Mother. If you say that your father-in-law has no evidence, you will be beaten into a trick. I'm afraid it's going to be bad for my father-in-law. ”
"This ......," Feng Bao heard Zhang Fan say. He hesitated. Feng Bao had never participated in such a triage. He used to ask cases in the East Factory. There was one acre and three points of his land. What means do you want to use. It's not all up to him. And now. Ge Shouli is here. After Zhang Fan's reminder. That's what he remembered. Ge Shouli will definitely not let him succeed easily.
"What can you do about it?" Feng Bao asked. "This king's minister has a very hard mouth. If something doesn't work out. I'm afraid I won't be able to knock him open. ”
"We can ask him first. Whoever instructed it. "Zhang Fan didn't think about it at all. He replied. Zhang Fan just gave Feng Bao ideas completely randomly. Obviously, Minister Wang didn't admit it just now. He also asked Feng Bao to ask him.
Only now. Because of the presence of Ge Shouli. In addition, what Zhang Fan said to Feng Bao just now made Feng Bao have a lot of concerns in his heart. He couldn't be like that. It's completely self-explanatory.
"Minister Wang. Let's ask you. Feng Bao once again faced Minister Wang, who was kneeling in the hall. Said. "Who instructed you to enter the palace to assassinate Your Majesty?"
"I told you. I came into the palace to preach. Minister Wang still refused to let go.
"Hmph. Transmission. Feng Bao sneered. This time, he didn't question Minister Wang's attitude. Asked directly. "Is it the old man who was expelled from the capital a few days ago who instructed you to enter the palace to assassinate Your Majesty?"
"What a high pavilion old. I don't know. Minister Wang said with a firm expression.
"I still want to deny it." Feng Bao does not seem to fit into this gentle cultural approach. Although Zhang Fan had just persuaded him. But Minister Wang once again denied it. He's getting a little tired of it. "I'll ask you. Yesterday in my east factory. How do you speak. But it was said that everything was commanded by the high arch. How dare you deny it today. ”
"Hmph. Yesterday. Minister Wang was unmoved by Feng Bao's words. also looked at Feng Bao contemptuously. "What's that thing in your East Factory? I'm afraid everyone in this world knows. Everybody knows. Yesterday you tortured me. I can't stand it. I just said it casually according to your meaning. In order to suffer less flesh and skin. You bend into a trick. Now they are threatening me with it. My minister is also the one who pins his head to the belt of his trousers and goes to battle. Now it is above this court. Why should I fear you? I entered the palace to pass it on. Not to assassinate His Majesty. And what a high pavilion old. I don't know that at all. That's what I say now. I'm going to see what you can do with me. ”
"You...... You ......" Feng Bao pointed at Minister Wang. His whole body trembled like chaff. It's no wonder that since he ascended to the position of the palm print of the East Factory. Where else would anyone speak to him like that. At this moment, Feng Bao was already ignited by Minister Wang's anger.
"Above the court." Feng Bao laughed angrily. "Today, we have to let you taste what is the pain of flesh and skin. Come on. Put a clamp on me. Thorn bamboo skewers. Whatever means I can use on him. ”
It seems that Feng Bao is really angry this time. also ignored Zhang Fan's admonition. It's time for Minister Wang to taste the bitterness.
