Chapter 1029 Ling Chi's Punishment Kneel down and beg for subscription
When the onlookers saw that Emperor Chongzhen was waving to him and smiling at himself, they couldn't help but tremble with excitement, and they all knelt on the ground and shouted: "Long live the emperor, long live, long live!" Long live the emperor, long live, long live! ,,,”
This shouting is really affectionate, just this simple action of Emperor Chongzhen, it is enough for them to brag for a lifetime!
"Excuse me! Excuse me! ”
Emperor Chongzhen said to the people with relief, and his heart was also very touched.
Now that the bandits are basically gone, there is no longer entanglement in the country, and then it will be the Liaodong Tartars, as long as they are calmed down again, I can sit back and relax, and I can be worthy of the ancestors and ancestors of the past dynasties!
Such a change, how can Emperor Chongzhen not feel profound!
When Emperor Chongzhen walked to the specially built imperial platform and sat down, Hu Yingtai, the secretary of the criminal department, saw that the time was almost up, so he asked Emperor Chongzhen for his life: "Emperor Qiqi, the time has come, can the execution begin?" ”
"Let's get started!"
Emperor Chongzhen was full of energy, and he said in high spirits.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Hu Yingtai agreed, and then ordered someone to bring Wang Jiayin up.
At this time, Wang Jiayin's body was chained, and his mouth was also stuffed with a black cloth, which was to prevent him from shouting and startling the holy driver.
When the people saw Wang Jiayin coming, they all spat at him, you take a mouthful, I take a mouthful, it doesn't take much effort, then Wang Jiayin is covered with saliva, a wet piece.
Many people also threw stones at Wang Jiayin, even if the stone is not big, but it can't stand the many people, there is not much effort, Wang Jiayin was also smashed by the stone with bruises on his face, and his forehead was also smashed out of blood, coupled with the saliva all over his body, how can he be embarrassed and miserable!
This also affected those officials who pressed Wang Jiayin, and they were also embarrassed by saliva, broken stones, etc., but what people wanted was this effect, and they had no choice.
Of course, from beginning to end, the people did not throw eggs and vegetable leaves as they said in the storytelling!
This is also understandable, after all, storytelling is storytelling, life is life, the eggs and vegetables are all good dishes, which ordinary people are willing to throw away, although they are all people at the feet of the Son of Heaven, but the standard of living is not high enough to spoil food at will!
After pressing Wang Jiayin to kneel on the ground, Hu Yingtai sentenced Wang Jiayin: "The rebel Wang Jiayin, gathering crowds to make trouble, wantonly slaughtering the officials and gentry and the people, eroding the place, heinous and heinous, according to my Ming law, sentenced Wang Jiayin to death Ling Chi, and executed immediately!" ”
Ling Chi, this is the heaviest sentence in terms of punishment, but this Ling Chi's criminal law is also divided into severity.
If it is light, there are only eight knives, one knife in the face, one knife in each of the four hands and feet, one knife in the chest, one knife in the back, and one knife in the private parts.
If it's heavy, it's 3,600 knives, how can you cut these 3,600 knives, after all, there are so many knives, it's not easy to start!
It doesn't matter, how powerful the ancients were, what was difficult to do to them, tied a fishing net to the prisoner, and then cut the meat bulging out of the fishing net until 3,600 knives were cut!
Of course, whether it is light or heavy, the last knife is the one in the chest, a knife into the heart, so that the prisoner will return to the West, before that, the prisoner has to endure the pain of stabbing the heart again and again, there is no way, if you want to die early!
Obviously, Hu Yingtai sentenced Wang Jiayin to death to Ling Chi, this is the heaviest punishment in Ling Chi, then he Wang Jiayin will be punished with 3,600 knives!
As soon as Hu Yingtai's voice fell, the official who detained Wang Jiayin immediately stripped Wang Jiayin of his clothes, put on a fishing net and tied it horizontally to a stone bench.
Then I saw an executioner about 50 years old, holding a small wooden box in both hands, who came to Wang Jiayin and began to do it.
The master opened the small wooden box, and saw that there were two rows of delicate knives in the lid and inside the box, each knife, the handle of the knife with the blade, and a piece that was not yet palm-long, this was the tool that Ling Chi was going to use.
Don't look at each of these knives is extremely sharp, exquisite, and as beautiful as a work of art, but after each of them has undergone countless punishments, it has become the most yin and cold thing in the world, once it is put into the wooden box, it must not be opened, once opened, you must taste all the blood, otherwise, it will be a disaster for the knife bearer!
There was once such a master who was responsible for Ling Chi's punishment during the Yongle years, at that time, because the Yongle Emperor had just sat on the throne, there were a lot of people to kill, and almost all of them were Ling Chi's capital punishment.
This master once finished the execution, after packing up the knife, because he was busy for a while, he often had to carry out the execution, so he was careless for a while, did not take good care of the wooden box, and just put it in the cabinet, but was found by his little grandson, opened it and played with it for a while, and then put it back.
When the master found that the box had been opened, he was so frightened that he quickly called his family to inquire one by one, and finally knew that the little grandson had moved, and quickly sent him to the Taoist temple to ward off evil spirits.
It's fine all day, but at night, the little grandson died for no reason, and there was no injury on his body, but Qi Qiqi had no wounds on his body, but there was no blood on his body, as if he had been dried up!
When the master found out that his little grandson had died violently, he was also terrified, and he was in a cold sweat, and he was also killed in a few days!
Since then, there has been a rule handed down, that is, the master in charge of Ling Chi, the room where he put the knives is not allowed to enter the house except himself, and as soon as he enters, he will immediately cut three knives on his body!
Getting back to the point, after the master opened the wooden box, he took out a delicate knife, and silently muttered a few words in his mouth, and he didn't know what he was talking about.
Such a terrifying scene scares people to death just thinking about it, not to mention how cautious they are, but those ordinary people are all excited and applauded loudly.
"If you cut well, this king deserves this punishment!"
"Yes, yes, as long as you dare to make my Ming rebellion, you should be cut with a thousand cuts!"
"Ling Chi is cheap to him, I see that after cutting, I have to crush his bones and scatter ashes and throw him into the river to feed the fish!" ,,,
It is really worthy of the people of the capital, I have seen a lot, this courage is big!
