Chapter Seventy-Five: Action
Sun Yaoting, the squire of the military department, is a member of the central body of the Tang Dynasty, such an ally, those people will definitely try their best to keep him, because there are fewer and fewer officials in the Wude period who hold important positions in the court, and if you lose one, you will lose one, and what Xuan Shijing has to do is to find some irrelevant information from the letters between Sun Yaoting and them to be mixed in this case, this information cannot be too attention-grabbing, but it must also be able to give that group of people a deterrent and force them to give up Sun Yaoting.
This is a technical job, and it is also one of the reasons why Xuan Shijing wants to interrogate the merchant in Dali Temple Prison, no matter what the case is, as long as it is hooked with Dali Temple, even if it is only borrowed from the venue of Dali Temple for interrogation, it means that the blue sky is fair and strict, if anyone dares to say a word, Dai Zhou will be the first to stand up and refute, Dali Temple's face is not something that anyone can tarnish.
Similarly, if it is placed in the Hou Mansion for interrogation, it will be a private court, and maybe someone will be labeled as an abusive lynching, and it will be an eventful event, so you have to guard against it.
After Shi Hu heard Xuan Shijing's order, he nodded and said, "Don't worry, little marquis, this matter is left to me." ”
"I forgot to ask you, how are you doing?" Xuan Shijing looked at Shi Hu, Gao Yuan and Gao Jun were able to freely enter and exit the mansion of the big family in Chang'an, it was nothing more than relying on a good light skill, this Shi Hu looked like five big and three thick, without that light body kung fu, how to go to the Sun Mansion at night.
"It's so-so, but don't worry, the mountain people have their own tricks." Shi Hu confidently assured Xuan Shijing.
"Little Hou Ye don't have to worry, since Shi Hu said so, he must have a way, and Xiao Hou Ye believes him." Gao Jun echoed.
Xuan Shijing: "Cheng, then the Sun Mansion will be handed over to Shihu, Gao Jun, you take someone to catch the merchant, Long'er will go to Dali Temple with me, let's go now, remember to avoid the Jin Wuwei who patrols the night, the Hou Mansion brand is brought, if you really meet it, explain it and say that the investigation is, Gao Jun, you bring the brand of Dali Temple, you arrest people and send them to Dali Temple, and it is inevitable that you will encounter them on the way." ”
"Yes!" The three of them replied aloud.
Out of the study, they began to act separately, Long'er and Xuan Shijing went to the stable of the Hou Mansion to lead two horses, and galloped to Dali Temple.
The curfew in Chang'an City is very strict, and the Jin Wuwei patrolling the streets at night will be more than thirty percent during the day, and the Hou Mansion will make such a big move tonight, and Jin Wuwei should have gone to greet him in advance, but Xuan Shijing's side is too late, and second, he must not disclose tonight's actions, so when he met a team of Jin Wuwei on Chang'an Street, Xuan Shijing told one of the captains, saying that Dali Temple would handle the case tonight, and let him not stop it.
In this way, even if the news is known by Sun Yaoting, it will be too late, there is a connection between the Jin Wuwei patrolling each team, as long as one of the teams is instructed, if the news does not pass on, Gao Jun also has the sign of Dali Temple in his hand.
Jin Wuwei, who patrols the streets, is not surprised by this practice of Dali Temple, in previous years, there were always a few cases in Dali Temple that would make trouble at night, so when the captain heard Xuan Shijing say that Dali Temple was going to handle the case, he verified Xuan Shijing's identity and issued an order not to stop it.
On the streets of Chang'an City at night, except for a team of Jin Wuwei, no one else can be seen, and Xuan Shijing and Long'er can also run wild with confidence. When they arrived at Dali Temple, Xuan Shijing and Long'er tied the reins of their horses to the stakes on the side of the gate, and then walked into Dali Temple.
Dali Temple is also on duty at night, and after the official on duty in the Xuan Shijing Ward sounded, he went to the prison of Dali Temple.
The so-called prison is the cell of Dali Temple, but it is not an ordinary prison cell for prisoners, but a torture room.
During the Zhenguan period, there were few suspects who could be handed over to Dali Temple, not to mention the suspects who were worth torture, this prison had been abandoned for a long time, the prison was empty, and there was not even a guard jailer, pushing open the heavy prison door, it was pitch black inside, and there was no one in it, so naturally there was no light, and the official on duty was also kind, and sent two people over to obey Xuan Shijing's dispatch.
After turning the lamp, I saw the scene in the prison clearly, the mottled wall skin had begun to peel off, there were still dark red marks on the ground, and there were also clouds of dark red splashing on the wall, and there were all kinds of torture instruments hanging on the walls of the room, and the iron chains on the torture tools had been rusted. Although there was an oil lamp, it was still a little dim, the light shone uncomfortably on the wall, and the ground was covered with a thick layer of ash, and a small puff of smoke and dust was splashed when stepped on, and the atmosphere in the prison was indeed a little more eerie.
Long'er was a girl after all, and such an atmosphere made her very uneasy and afraid, but she still gritted her teeth and stood behind Xuan Shijing, silent.
"Find someone to clean this up, and you'll need it later." Xuan Shijing said to the two behind him.
"My lord, but it's night, where to find someone." The person who spoke had a bitter face, and now it has been more than a long time, except for a few people on duty in Dali Temple, where to find someone.
Xuan Shijing frowned and said, "No one? Then you two clean up. ”
"My lord, this"
"Why, is it necessary to clean up this time? Or do you want the maid to clean it up? Xuan Shijing's tone was unhurried, but he scared the two of them a lot.
Where did they dare to let Xuan Shijing clean up, the one in front of them was not only the Shaoqing in the temple, but also a Hou Ye, as for the girl behind the Hou Ye, looking at his stubborn face, standing behind the Hou Ye, and then looking at this gloomy prison, where could they bear to let this delicate girl do this kind of work.
Well, let's do it yourself, I've been doing it in Dali Temple for so many years, and I've never seen anything, isn't it just a small prison.
Xuan Shijing took Long'er out of the prison cell, and the two quickly fetched water, took a burlap broom or something and began to clean the prison cell.
"Little Marquis, can't you interrogate in the public court or in the side room of Dali Temple? Why do you have to clean out of the prison cell? Long'er asked, disgusted and frightened by the conditions in the prison cell.
"This little merchant is a key person, such a character is usually a henchman under his hands, how can he easily confess without any means." Xuan Shijing said.
Long'er: "Little Marquis, do you want to use torture?" ”
"It depends, I don't usually torture people." Xuan Shijing smiled mysteriously: "If it is a hard bone, it may not be easy to use torture, but it will be true." ”
"No punishment? That little marquis, what are you going to do when you toss and clean up the prison cell. Long'er was puzzled, this prison cell was not a good place.
"Mountain people have their own tricks." Xuan Shijing said with a smile.
