Chapter 224: The Pain of Flesh and Skin
When Dongchang was first established, there was no edict. Later, it gradually became stronger.,I felt that it was too troublesome to always send prisoners to Jinyiwei.,So I built an edict prison to use.。
The decree of the Son of Heaven is an edict, and the place of imprisonment is a prison.
The edict was the place where the prisoners arrested by the emperor's order were held.
Dongchang Imperial Prison, a separate cell.
Li Xiu sat quietly on a pile of straw, the python robe on his body had been peeled off, his hair was scattered, and he was only wearing a moon-white coat.
It's been a few days since I came here, and because I haven't locked up anyone in this Dongchang prison for a long time, the beds and bedding inside have long been rotten, and the prison is very cold. Li Xiujin has been living in clothes and food for a long time, and it is really difficult to endure in this prison.
Zhu Youzhen paid too much attention to this case, and although Wang Zhixin had some friendship with him, he didn't dare to give him preferential treatment.
It was really boring to stay in this cell all day, Li Xiu simply meditated every day and practiced the Taoist Pure Yang Technique, and after a few days, his kung fu improved a lot.
"Bang Bang"
There was a sound from the other side of the gate, Li Xiu looked up, and saw Wang Zhixin walking in, and said in his heart: "This old bastard has finally appeared." ”
When he came to the bars of the cell, the king motioned to the cell boss to open the door. After that, he asked everyone to retreat, and he walked straight in, saying: "Lord Li has suffered, the emperor is watching closely, and our family doesn't dare to give you too much care, I hope you will take care of it." ”
Li Xiu shook his head and asked, "How is my case?" ”
Wang Zhixin smiled: "I know that Lord Li is wronged, how can you let the officials of the court not do it and go to King Zhou?" No, we've been looking for days, and we haven't found anything. ”
Li Xiu also smiled: "In this way, the emperor is afraid that he will blame you for not doing things well, right?" ”
Wang Zhixin was stunned, and stretched out a thumbs up: "Awesome, you guessed it!" The emperor did question us, and sent someone to Kaifeng secretly to find evidence. ”
"How's my home?" Li Xiu asked a little uneasily.
"Don't worry, you haven't been convicted yet, no one will touch them."
Wang Zhixin's face suddenly showed a look of embarrassment: "The emperor will send someone over in the morning, and when the time comes, I'm afraid our family won't be able to please again." ”
Li Xiu was stunned when he heard this, what did he send someone to do?
After thinking for a moment, he understood. Zhu Youzhen, an old pervert, actually wants people to come over to see if he has been tortured to extract a confession!
"What does the Lord mean?"
"Adults have to suffer a little bit of flesh and skin."
Wang Zhixin replied truthfully: "But don't worry, our family will not let people be heavy-handed." ”
People are under the eaves and have to bow their heads.
So far, Li Xiu can only admit it. In fact, he doesn't have much friendship with Wang Zhixin, and he is very good to himself now. If this had been replaced by another prisoner, I'm afraid it would have been executed a long time ago, right? Do you need to run in privately to let you know?
Seeing Li Xiu nodding, Wang Zhixin went to call several subordinates in.
There are 1,000 households in charge of punishment and one person in charge of 100 households in the East Factory, all of whom are selected from Jinyiwei's side and are called the criminal officers. It is their duty to torture the prisoners in the Imperial Prison.
Li Xiu let people tie his hands and feet, and his heart was really terrifying: "This king's heart, shouldn't he really use those eighteen punishments on his body?" ”
He was wrong about this, Wang Zhixin just wanted to make some scars on him, and he didn't really plan to kill him. Therefore, only flogging was used.
"Smack, smack, smack"
The whip was thrown on the ground with a crisp sound, and the posture was really a bit bluffing. When the executioner raised his whip high and threw it down at Li Xiu's body, he closed his eyes all of a sudden.
"Smack"
It hurts, this is Li Xiu's first feeling, and it is a little hot. However, after feeling it carefully, he now that this person did not use much force, he should have just broken the skin on his body, and the wound would not be too deep.
"Hey, you have a conscience!"
Li Xiu secretly praised in his heart, and then he realized that he should exhale painfully in order to look decent.
Acting is such a thing, it really can't be difficult for him. If it is now in the 21st century, Li Xiu feels that he can definitely win the award, even if he can't win the Oscar, what Hundred Flowers Award and Golden Horse Award can still be, right?
"Smack"
"Ahh
When the second whip hit his body, Li Xiu followed with a miserable wail. The cry was really like "enjoying" a cruel punishment.
Wang Zhixin watched with a smile, and said in his heart that Master Li is really good at acting, and that tone really seems to be like that.
"Smack, smack, smack"
"Ahh
The sound of whips whipped on his body, as well as Li Xiu's wail, filled the entire Dongchang prison.
In the afternoon, someone from the palace came.
Zhu Youzhen sent several eunuchs, and Li Xiu, the leader, did not know him.
After seeing Li Xiu's bloody and scarred appearance, those people left. I think Zhu Youzhen should be satisfied after hearing their gifts, right?
The evidence can't be found, and torture is used to extract confessions, but there is no confession, doesn't this show that he is innocent?
Although he thought so, he also knew that this emperor would not let him go easily. Everyone has been arrested, if nothing can really be found, where should the face of the Son of Heaven be placed?
Thinking about it like this, Li Xiu felt that his tail seemed to be broken too much. If there is no crime, people will be even more disgusted with themselves.
But now that he has become a prisoner, it is not easy to do anything more.
Let someone spread the word and tell Han Lin to deliberately show some traces and charge himself with participating in business or something?
This will never work!
Mo himself and Wang Zhixin don't have a deep friendship, and many things can't be easily revealed. Even if it is a subordinate of his own Jinyiwei, Li Xiu will not trust it easily.
Intentional self-defilement?
If the messenger is not reliable and the news really leaks out, then eighty percent of people will think: Since you are willing to leak these sins and plan to exonerate yourself, it proves that you are indeed guilty of a serious crime!
Confess yourself?
That's even worse. Since you are willing to confess, wouldn't you be able to dig up more things by imposing a heavy sentence?
Li Xiu shook his head and put aside such thoughts. Now I can't manage so much, as long as nothing goes wrong in Kaifeng, everything will be fine.
Anyway, his final crime, as long as he is not a rebellion, he can still have a chance to live.
