Chapter 144: The King of the Urn Tyrannizes Chang'an

With the sound of rain, the carriage came to the Peace Square.

The second square by the city wall in the southwest corner, to this place, is also the most remote place in Chang'an City, no different from the suburbs, and also drew a cross street, but there is only this cross street, unlike other squares, it is divided into four small cross streets, and there is not even a square wall and a square gate.

There are some woods, as well as vegetable fields and crop fields, which were Li Chengqian's favorite places for stealing cattle back then.

In addition to Nongmo, there are only solemn temples and general temples in decent buildings.

The carriage turned a little along the side street, and again turned to a small road to the southwest, and when it rained, the road was a little muddy, and the speed of the carriage slowed down, but gradually there were no people in sight. In front of a small bamboo forest, there was a small pond and two rows of thatched houses, and the carriage stopped.

Guan Fu, He Guangzhen, Niu Jin and others put these two people into a thatched hut and said to a thirty-year-old left: "Zhou Dushi, leave it to you." ”

He was brought over by Di Renjie and asked Guan Fu to bring him, and his main responsibility was to be responsible for keeping an eye on the person, finding a way to catch it, and then he recorded a confession. This is an important section, this group of people must be in one place, it is easy to manage in one place, the probability of dispersion and exposure is high, and in one place, if there is anything, Xu Jingzong can also extinguish it in time.

It is impossible to mobilize manpower and how many soldiers are mobilized for the positions of the Yang father and son, but it is still possible to mobilize dozens of cronies and arrest these murderers. But you can't forcibly arrest you, this is not to other farms, even if it is Huangzhuang, to Xu Jingzong's farm, even if it is a cronie, it is estimated that they will hesitate. And it is not in line with the system, Xu Jingzong was originally a close confidant of the two saints, and finally knocked down Xu Jingzong, and the two saints also resented this group of people, and also knocked down themselves.

Therefore, there must be a confession first, and with a confession, arresting the criminals is just the right and bright, besides, Di Renjie himself is a Dali Temple, it is not okay to arrest Xu Jingzong, and it is also within the scope of his authority to arrest some assassins. With a confession, it was easier for the Yang father and son to mobilize people. You can even discuss it with Dai Zhide and Zhang Wenjun. In any case, although they did not do their best for the prince, they were not evil to the prince and had a great good impression, and they were also direct ministers of the Qing Dynasty.

But this confession is not easy, this is a dead soldier raised by Xu Jingzong, since he can dare to assassinate the prince, they are all a group of outlaws, don't look at Niu Jin in the city and these two people shoulder to shoulder, this is in the city, if it is outside the city, the courage to connect may not have. And as long as it is recruited, no matter how much merit is forgiven, it is a dead end.

It is difficult to make an export, but it must be done in a very short time. These two people who came to the city to have fun will not return tonight, and it is reasonable that they may spend the night at the fantou's house, but if they do not come back tomorrow morning, it is estimated that the people in the village may immediately become suspicious. It is necessary to prepare again, therefore, it is necessary to get a confession before the third watch.

This difficulty, in other words, none of the three Guan Heniu is so sure.

But along the way, this week, I swore an oath, but I don't know where the confidence comes from.

Zhou Xing said: "Please splash them up with cold water." ”

After finishing speaking, he took out a few large boxes brought from Luoyang.

"Zhao Quan'er" The two woke up, saw the surrounding environment, and the people in front of them, and asked in surprise: "Who are you?" ”

Zhou Xing opened the box and said, "They are the jailers and jailers of Dali Temple, and they are the capital of Shangshu Province." ”

"What do you want?"

"What do you want, you know in your own hearts, come, so-and-so will show you a few good things. This knife was specially invited from the Eastern Capital to be made of 100 steel, and it was extremely sharp. Of course, not for killing. This is a kind of torture tool that a certain person associated with seeing the history books record that Fu Jian, the former Qin lord, liked to sing and dance for him with skinned prisoners. ”

only said the first thing, "Zhao Quaner" and the two began to writhe and shouted for help, but in this remote place, it was a rainy night, who heard it?

However, Zhou Xing was annoyed and said, "Please plug their mouths." ”

He Guangzhen and the others walked over, blocked the mouths of the two with rags, and kept looking at the boxes with their eyes, and their hearts were very hairy.

Zhou Xing continued: "The source of this iron net is also pondered by a certain person, from the circumcision of Gao Yang, the lord of the Northern Qi Dynasty, but the two of them are very precious and can't be cut to death, so the meat is strangled with an iron net, so that a small piece of meat can be cut one by one." ”

When it came to the second thing, a group of people couldn't stand it, and halfway through the run went outside, they would rather get drenched in the rain than listen to it.

Zhou Xing took out a third thing and continued: "This is called a wooden hand, which was conceived by Li Biao, a lieutenant of the Northern Wei Dynasty, because it is made of wood, not like iron, it will hurt, but it will not be fatal. Therefore, Li Biao often used it to hit the prisoner in the ribs, and every time the prisoner died many times and was revived. Later, as soon as the prisoner heard that the wooden hand had arrived, he obediently confessed to himself. ”

"This stove with the plough ear, or Gao Yang's torture instrument, burned the plow ear red, and then let the prisoner walk barefoot. How it turned out, you know. ”

After saying this sentence, they basically ran away, and although some prison officials dealt with prisoners all day long and used torture tools, they couldn't help but vomit.

"This is the fifteenth item, a small mud, but it is also very useful, but this is a certain idea, I used some glue, mixed it in the mud, plugged it in the ear, and then roasted it red with fire, and then ripped off this clay. No one knows what the result is, but so-and-so wants to see it. After all, it is a new criminal law. ”

The use of this person was Di Renjie's temporary idea.

Knowing that this person was cruel but earlier, waiting for the early dynasty on the Tianjin Bridge, an official of Dali Temple was discussing, some prisoners were very cunning, but they did not confess, so this person intervened and said a word, if the prisoner is placed in his hands, any kind of cunning prisoner can force a confession. Then he said some criminal laws, and they were dumbfounded. Of course, listen to it, these criminal laws are too cruel, and if they are really used and spread out, they will cause an uproar. It is even possible that the emperor will order punishment.

Di Renjie was thinking about finding someone for the prince to walk in the dark, that is, characters like Li Yifu and Xu Jingzong, so he paid attention for a while. After inquiring, this person's name is Zhou Xing, a native of Chang'an, who has studied law since he was a child, in order to enter the official career, but he arranged to do all the things in Shangshu Province, an official from the seventh grade, in Shangshu Province in charge of sending and receiving documents, inspection of lack of inspection and supervision of seals, etc., not a "professional counterpart". And this person has a spicy personality and is taciturn, and in some places he is very similar to Xu Jingzong and Li Yifu, but he can't learn it, so he doesn't like it for his colleagues.

This kind of person is definitely not good at being a man, but being a dog is the best candidate, and it is possible to bite people, which is more vicious than Xu Jingzong. However, even if Di Renjie found a candidate, he was hesitant in his heart.

It just so happened that Guan Fu sent the news, and whether he could get a confession in the middle of the night was related to whether the entire case could be successfully revealed. So I thought of what this person said on the Tianjin Bridge that day, so I asked him to a restaurant, and the two talked while drinking. After a tentative moment, he said the gist, but he still did not mention Xu Jingzong, only said that it was a very difficult case in Chang'an, in which a top minister was involved.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Xing immediately agreed. I can probably understand his thoughts, thinking that he is the chief staff of the crown prince, and he himself is not loved in Shangshu Province, and there are no accidents, so it is possible that he will not want to be promoted in this life. Those who take this line by themselves will see if he can get some light if he can be promoted through the crown prince in the future.

Finally, I made some preparations and asked this person to come to Chang'an together, specifically to manage torture. Not only did the two people be tortured, but after the other assassins were arrested, they had to get a confession quickly, otherwise the two saints would turn a big matter into a small matter and a small matter, and once the holy decree was issued, it would be difficult to try it again. But the holy decree has not been issued, but Dali Temple has the right to interrogate, besides, because a number of criminals have not been arrested, the assassination case of Prince Zhongnanshan has not been concluded until now.

Zhou Xing explained these "gadgets" clearly, and said: "What about the two of you, you also know that since you dare to assassinate the prince, you must not be afraid of death, so you don't plan to take the initiative to confess immediately." Let's do the same thing first. Start with peeling, which is also learned, not only the knife is fast, but also the knife is burned red, so that while peeling, the knife that burns red at the same time can make the flesh scorch and scar, and will not lose too much blood and die. ”

After finishing speaking, he lit the fire, put the knife on the fire and roasted it, and after a while, the tip of the knife was red, and he pulled out the cloth in the mouths of the two, and said: "Then so-and-so will start, so-and-so won't ask, when do you think you can't stand it, say to so-and-so." ”

As he spoke, he stretched out a knife to the face of "Zhao Quan'er", and a small piece of skin was cut off. "Zhao Quan'er" screamed in pain.

He Guangzhen also began to vomit, and he said to Guan Fu, "Where did Di Sicheng find this monster?" ”

Guan Fu was also very uncomfortable and shook his head. But Niu Jin was better, and said, "If this is not the case, you will not get a confession." However, this case is a stopgap measure, but it cannot be set up for a long time. ”

Seeing these punishments, don't say that you are guilty and obediently move, even if you are not guilty, you have to be obediently recruited. It is prevalent, and the world still does not know how many unjust and wrongful convictions there are. But Di Renjie's method of handling the case is the king.

The second knife was stretched out again, and "Zhao Quan'er" shouted: "I recruited, I recruited, as long as I was given a good death." ”

"If I knew this, I wouldn't have to take the knife just now. In vain, he also explained for most of the day. Alas, what a stupidity. Niu Prison Cheng, you come in and pull the other person aside to prevent the two from colluding with each other. ”

"Whoa!" Niu Jin and the others immediately walked in and pulled the other person away. But when they used it, not to mention the prisoners, they were all cold and scared when they heard it.

Zhou Xing said again: "There is another person to make a record for me." ”

"Whoa."

I started asking them one by one, and I recruited them anyway, and there was one person who could talk to each other later, and I almost even recruited what the had done.

The third watch did not arrive, and the two confessions were sent to the Yang Mansion.

Yang Sijian didn't fall asleep either, and was sitting in the living room with his son waiting for news. Seeing He Guangzhen coming in, he asked eagerly, "What's wrong?" ”

"All well, I'll leave it to you." As he spoke, he handed over the two oral statements, and by the candlelight, Yang Sijian quickly read them, and said with great joy: "It's hard work, but you have to work hard, and take care of these two people." ”

"Yes. It's just a pity, if it had been a day earlier, the Yu clan would not have died. He Guangzhen sighed.

Yang Sijian did not express his position, although she was meritorious, but this woman's moral character was very lacking, she did not answer, but said: "Since you are dead, you will divide one more person to return to the Eastern Capital, notify Di Sicheng, and ask him to help by the way, and also find out the truth of this case, and give her justice." ”

"Whoa."

When He Guangzhen left, Yang Sijian also left Yang's mansion and went to visit a few people, the first one was Dai Zhide. Many people stammered Xu Jingzong and went to mourn, but Dai Zhide didn't stammer, got dressed, and asked in surprise: "Yang Weiqing, why did you come to a certain mansion so late." ”

Yang Sijian didn't answer, looking at the servants behind him, Dai Zhide waved his hand and asked them all to retreat, and Yang Sijian took out the two confessions.

When Dai Zhide saw it, he was also stunned, and asked in disbelief: "The case of the assassination of the prince in Zhongnanshan was actually instigated by Xu Xianggong?" ”

"Dai Xianggong, I didn't expect it. Di Renjie sent someone to explain to me. The first is the assassins, more than a dozen assassins, originally we all thought that Helan Minzhi thought that the news was leaked or suspected, and sent the dead. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has already called out his identity, and these people are still frantically chasing and killing, and they must be dead. Di Renjie saw some suspicions from this, since he was a dead soldier and a close confidant of Helan Minzhi, why did none of his colleagues know the origin of these assassins. Of course, it is possible that only He Lanmin knows, and because of his identity, it is inconvenient for He Lanmin to be tortured. That's what we all think, too. In order to prevent accidents, when Di Renjie went out on business on behalf of his colleagues, he went to Longzhou and quietly found Zhang Bangyan to inquire, and Zhang Bangyan was also suspicious. He has followed He Lanmin for many years, and he should know the whole thing about Helan Minzhi, but he has not heard of it. Other people's words are not credible, Zhang Bangyan has abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, and his words are credible. Therefore, Di Renjie concluded that the assassin had nothing to do with Helan Minzhi. ”

That's enough.

"The second is Liu Hansan and Zhong Da Hammer, who knew that Helan Minzhi wanted to kidnap my daughter, and only some of the staff knew about it. It is possible that the servants listened to it, but there were no two servants in Helan Min's mansion. At the time, we thought it might be a leak from the staff. Some people who loved the prince abandoned the staff in Helan Min's mansion and looked for the prince. Again negligent. Di Renjie thinks that only some people in the East Palace know about the prince's view of Tian, and it is possible that even Helan Minzhi doesn't know, why do these two know? Of course, it could be a coincidence. Later, it was another coincidence that I found my daughter kidnapped. In addition, Liu Lu disappeared and the rescue was successful, and the assassin appeared, and there were many coincidences, which was also suspicious. Therefore, I did some analysis, and learned about the conversation between the prince and Xu Xianggong, although there was no dispute, but the voice was already faintly hostile to the other party. What if this was instructed by Xu Xianggong? With his strength, it is not difficult to get some news from the East Palace, and it is even less difficult to have more than a dozen dead soldiers in his hands, and it is also not difficult for Liu Lu to turn against Shui Helan Minzhi and take refuge in him. And the assassination was successful, and his grandson Shitu was no longer in trouble. If the assassination is unsuccessful, the prince is furious, and His Majesty is protective, then His Majesty will be dissatisfied with His Royal Highness, and there is something to do. ”

"I understand, I'll talk about it tomorrow, and we'll go to Zhang Xianggong's mansion again."

This case is another big case, and it is no less than Shangguanyi's case, and he is a close confidant of the two saints...... With all kinds of consequences, Dai Zhide can't call the shots alone.

At the fifth watch, Dai Zhide, Zhang Wenjun, Xiao Zhaode, and Li Jingxuan were all alarmed.

The consequences were unpredictable, but the day was about to dawn and the gates were open. Therefore, it was decided to arrest this group of assassins, Liu Lu, and even the two impostors Liu Santu (Liu Hansan) and Zhong Jinhammer (Zhong Da Hammer) before they were brought to justice.

Two hundred forest troops were immediately mobilized. It's a dead soldier, ordinary officials are definitely not good, fully armed, and rushed towards Xu Jingzong's manor......
