Chapter 665: A Punishment of Shame
"Bending into a trick? In this way, Wu Yuanqing, you are reluctant to admit that King Qi rebelled, even if Yan Hongliang has confessed, you will not admit it, right?" Qiu Xinggong's face sank suddenly, and his eyes looked at Wu Yuanqing like a knife.
"That's right, Yan Hongliang has been tortured like this, how credible is what he said, who dares to guarantee that he didn't say these confessions against his will under your torture You want to hear. Besides, he said that King Qi rebelled, and he discussed with them many times how to rebel and when to rebel, then I want to ask, where was King Qi last night, but I heard the princess say that King Qi was not in the palace last night, and even not in the palace for many consecutive nights, and only returned to the palace during the day. If you really want to rebel, won't King Qi stay in the palace to command such a big thing last night?" Wu Yuanqing asked calmly.
"Hahaha, Wu Yuanqing, you are really interesting, King Qi is not in the palace, and he has not been in the palace for many days and nights, isn't it ironclad evidence that he is plotting to rebel? Otherwise, why didn't the dignified prince sleep at home at night, but disappeared? It must be taking advantage of the quiet of night not to attract attention and Yin Hongzhi, Yan Hongliang, Yan Hongxin, they got together to discuss the matter of plotting a rebellion, it is better to not be in the palace last night, the rebels attacked Licheng and attacked the county government, and the king of Qi must be outside to command this attack, so he is not in the palace." Qiu Xinggong, who felt that Wu Yuanqing had taken a stinky move, laughed and refuted Wu Yuanqing, and finally kicked Yan Hongliang again: "You say, is this the case, what is King Qi doing when he is not in the palace at night in the past few days?"
Yan Hongliang let out another cry of sorrow, and then nodded again and again with a wail: "That's right, King Qi was with us at night to discuss the rebellion, and last night's attack was commanded by King Qi."
"Oh, then you can tell me where the King of Qi is now, when the city was broken this morning, someone saw you, some people saw Yan Hongxin, and some people saw Yin Hongzhi, etc., all of you have seen it, I have seen you defend the city, and I have also seen your escape after the city was broken, but why no one has seen His Royal Highness the King of Qi, no one, can you tell me why? Can you tell me where King Qi is?" Wu Yuanqing squatted in front of Yan Hongliang, looked at his terrifying face and asked softly.
"Because His Royal Highness the King of Qi had already left us and ran, he changed into the people's clothes and ran, so we didn't hold the city, and I don't know where he ran." Yan Hongliang whispered.
"Oh, you don't know." Wu Yuanqing nodded with a look of understanding, only to see him staring at Yan Hongliang again and looking carefully, then slowly stood up with his legs propped up, looked at Qiu Xinggong and smiled, and then suddenly raised his leg and kicked Yan Hongliang in the face.
Yan Hongliang's nose had been cut off, and it was still dripping with blood, Wu Yuanqing now kicked his nose squarely, directly kicked his nose, tore a hole, and cracked from his nose to his cheeks, and the pink facial muscles were exposed, and then they were dyed blood red by the blood that oozed.
"You know exactly what the King of Qi has done at night in the past few days, but you don't know what happened this morning, you said that you rebelled against the King of Qi as the leader, but your leaders have run away but you are still holding on, you lied to the ghosts, the King of Qi dressed up as a common man and ran away, but a few of you didn't run, are you for the Queen of Qi? You say you're so loyal, but why are you rebelling when you're so loyal?" Wu Yuanqing asked with a smile as he crushed the laceration on Yan Hongliang's face with his toes.
I just saw Li You's wife and children screaming when they saw Yan Hongliang's terrifying face, but now they saw Wu Yuanqing kicking Yan Hongliang's nose with one kick, tearing his cheeks and not even being as good as a ghost, but they only screamed and then stopped making a sound.
It's not that I'm scared and scared, but I'm directly scared and I don't dare to scream, and some simply close my eyes and don't dare to look.
It's terrible, it's really terrible, the brother-in-law and uncle who was amiable just now, suddenly changed at this time, just like the god killer and the butcher is perverted, especially while kicking people's faces, and laughing so casually asking people's words, this, this, this, it's really too ..... I don't know how to describe this feeling, and they all cover their mouths in horror and don't dare to make a sound.
"Wu Yuanqing, what are you doing? Do you want to kill him, do you think that this will allow King Qi to escape and let you Wu Yuanqing escape?" Qiu Xinggong's face changed and he kicked at Wu Yuanqing.
Qiu Xinggong was far away, and when his foot was kicked, Wu Yuanqing had already retreated, and after avoiding Qiu Xinggong's kick, Wu Yuanqing smiled faintly: "Qiu Xinggong, you think too much, I just want to ask Yan Hongliang according to the cat and the tiger, and see if I can ask some different answers." Are you in such a hurry, are you weak-hearted, [afraid that I will ask something unfavorable to you?]
Qiu Xinggong's face changed uncertainly, and then he said with a forced smile: "Joke, what is General Ben afraid of, there is Yan Hongliang's evidence, the evidence of King Qi's rebellion is conclusive, Wu Yuanqing, don't want to exonerate him, don't want to get out."
"Hahaha, Qiu Xinggong, it's too early for you to say that the evidence is conclusive, let's wait until I re-interrogate Yan Hongliang." Wu Yuanqing sneered.
"How do you want to interrogate?" Qiu Xinggong squinted and asked.
"Didn't you say it just now, learn from you according to the cat and the tiger, you see that you gouged out Yan Hongliang's right eye and cut off your nose in order to ask the truth, and now, this nose is completely rotten, and I can't continue to cut it, so I can only make it difficult for me, in addition to digging out his left eye, I also cut off his male root by the way, come to think of it, so what Yan Hongliang said must be the truth." Wu Yuanqing smiled and gestured while talking.
Hearing that Yan Hongliang's male roots were going to be cut off, all the men present felt that their lower bodies were cold, as if there was a blade cutting through, Liu Dewei and Qiu Xinggong all opened their mouths and looked at Wu Yuanqing in disbelief.
This seems to be a palace punishment, this is a notorious punishment, it is a kind of corporal punishment that is second only to Dapi in cruelty, and this kind of punishment was explicitly canceled during the Kaihuang period of the Sui Dynasty, after the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, the punishment has been repeatedly revised, and the previous torture has been reduced less, and no one dares to say that torture will be resumed.
Okay now, Wu Yuanqing is actually preparing to give Yan Hongliang to the palace to be punished, this is not just an abuse of lynching, to put it seriously, if this is really to be implemented, it is not inferior to Qiu Xinggong's evil act of digging up Liu Lancheng's heart and liver and roasting and eating, and then it will definitely be impeached by the Manchu Dynasty.
Hearing that *** was going to be cut off, Yan Hongliang cried in fright, if it was said that being gouged out and his nose cut off was just destroying his body and making him afraid and painful, then cutting off *** is not only physical pain, but also mental boundless torture, if you really want your little brother to be cut off, you won't be able to see your ancestors after death.
After Sima Qian angered Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and was sentenced to palace punishment, he wrote a letter to a friend: "Therefore, the calamity is not to be afraid of profit, the sorrow is not to be sad, and the ugliness is not to be humiliated, and the criticism is greater than the palace punishment." The remnants of the sentence are incomparable, not a lifetime, and have never been far away. ”
The meaning of Sima Qian's words is that there is nothing worse than greed and self-interest, there is no sorrow more painful than stabbing the soul, there is no behavior uglier than insulting the ancestors, and there is no greater shame than palace punishment
Not only in ancient times, but also in later generations, not to mention that there is no ***, it is *** that can't stand up, it's an incomparable shame.
What's more, the palace punishment is directly cut off, and there is no more, which is the most humiliating punishment that is even more uncomfortable than death.
"Don't, don't, Wuhou, I said I said ......."
Yan Hongliang began to confess with a cry.
