Wang Tu was shouting injustice in the cell, he really didn't know what that beautiful woman would have to do with Liu Xin, otherwise he would borrow ten guts from him, he wouldn't dare to beat that woman's idea, even if that woman took the initiative to seduce him, he would never dare. It's not that he has a lustful heart and no lust, but this is in Xiangyang, on someone else's territory, and he doesn't dare to be too presumptuous. If he was in Puyang, he would naturally be unscrupulous.

Those jailers were all human spirits, and they knew that the person Wang Tu offended was Liu Xin, where could they give him a good look, and when they heard him call fiercely, they became a little impatient. The leading jailer picked up a water and fire stick, and beat his head and face according to Wang Tu, and scolded and scolded: "What do you shout, there is no one who comes here who does not say that he has been wronged, let me stay honest, or ......"

Before he finished his words, he heard someone behind him: "Okay, step aside!" ”

The jailer looked back, hurriedly threw away the stick in his hand, stood aside with his hands down, and said worriedly, "My lord, I ......."

The person who came was Liu Xin and Fu Zhu. Liu Xin waved his hand, signaling him not to say anything, and then turned to Wang Tu and said, "Wang Tu, are you guilty?" ”

Wang Tu saw that it was Liu Xin who went and returned, and hurriedly said: "Lord Liu, the little one is guilty, you can spare the little one this time, the little one really doesn't know that it is ......."

Liu Xin snorted coldly: "It's not difficult for me to spare your life, but you always have to leave something behind." ”

When Wang Tu heard that he could live, he couldn't think about it, and said in a loud voice: "The small luggage is in the post house, as long as the adults can see it, they can take it casually." ”

Liu Xin laughed: "It's too troublesome to go to the post house, so let's take two samples from you." ”

Wang Tu heard the ill-intentioned in Liu Xin's words, and said in shock: "Lord Liu, I am Prime Minister Cao's person, you can't treat me like this." ”

Frustrated and said in a deep voice: "What about Cao Cao's people? Even if Cao Cao himself broke the law, my lord would not spare him! ”

Liu Xin didn't want to talk nonsense with Wang Tu here, so he turned his head and asked, "Gonghe, what did you just say, what is the punishment to be inflicted on him?" ”

Frustrated and said: "Back to the lord, it is a slash, a slash, and three punishments." The executioners will arrive soon. ”

When Wang Tu heard that such a punishment was going to be inflicted on him, he couldn't help but be distracted, and said loudly: "Lord Liu, you can't do this, it's your daughter and I who took the initiative to seduce me." ”

Of course, Liu Xin didn't need to explain his relationship with Yan Rui to him, and said coldly: "You said that she seduced you, but is there any witness?" ”

Wang Tu shook his head, there were only two people in the alley at that time, he and Yan Rui, and then two guards suddenly appeared and arrested him, he couldn't tell the difference.

Liu Xin sneered again: "Is there any physical evidence?" ”

Wang Tu shook his head again, of course there is physical evidence, when he was pressed to the ground by the guards, he watched the woman tear a hole in her long skirt on her chest, but this physical evidence was only more unfavorable to herself.

Liu Xin shrugged his shoulders and said, "There is no human and material evidence, what are you shouting about injustice?" ”

Wang Tu smiled bitterly and said, "But, she really seduced me." ”

At this time, there was a rush of footsteps outside the prison door, and a man dressed as a servant came over and said, "I have seen all the adults, the little Zhu San was ordered to come, may I ask who is being executed?" ”

Fu Zhu pointed to Wang Tu and said, "That's him." ”

Zhu San glanced at Wang Tu's handsome and fair-skinned face, a wicked smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he leaned over and said, "It turns out to be this Xiao Langjun." It's just a return to the two adults, and the younger one has not moved this punishment for many years, and it is inevitable that he will be a little rusty, and he is afraid that he will accidentally scratch other places. ”

Liu Xin said impatiently: "You can just do it, as long as you don't hurt his life, everything else is fine." Gonghe, I'll go back first, I'll leave it to you here. ”

Although he had also been bloody, he still felt too cruel and uncomfortable to see Wang Tu's nose and ears cut off in front of him like this, so he found an excuse to leave first. And Fu Zhu was not surprised by this situation, and very calmly pulled a chair and sat down opposite Wang Tu.

Zhu San said that he had not touched this kind of punishment for many years, and it was true, not to mention that after Liu Xin took charge of Jingzhou, even before Liu Xin, this kind of punishment was rarely used. For those who have committed the most heinous crimes, they can be punished with car splitting and Ling Chi, and for those who have committed less serious crimes, most of them will be punished with canes and imprisonment.

But Zhu San has not been executed for many years, but it does not mean that he has a hand, the reason why he explained it to Liu Xin first is only because Wang Tu is too handsome, and Zhu San has a kind of gnashing hatred for the little white face. Without him, it's just that he is too ugly and hasn't been able to get a daughter-in-law for many years.

Wang Tu was soon tied to a thick wooden stake, and the reason why he chose a low stake was to facilitate the shaving of his head. Although he didn't mind watching the execution scene, he didn't like to hear the prisoner's screams of pain, so he ordered Wang Tu's mouth to be plugged.

Zhu San smiled and took out a sharp knife from behind him, rubbed it back and forth on Wang Tu's head a few times, and pulled out the hairpin on Wang Tu's bun, and Wang Tu's hair suddenly fell apart. Zhu San's wrist flicked slightly, and a strand of hair fell.

When Wang Tu saw this scene, he was relieved, because he had just heard that he was going to punish him. At that time, Wang Tu was already frightened, and he didn't dare to ask more, but there must be no reason for the three punishments to be applied at the same time, and now that his hair has been shaved down, it should be a punishment. Although it is ugly to shave your hair, there will always be a day when it will grow again. Wang Tu is not a person who pays much attention to etiquette, righteousness and shame, and the punishment really doesn't matter to him.

Who knows, as soon as he thought of this, he felt a numbness in his lower abdomen, his body couldn't help shaking, and a sharp pain came from his forehead. I only heard Zhu San say in a loud voice: "Oh, what are you moving, look, my forehead is scratched, and it is rumored that my Zhu San is not good at craftsmanship." ”

In fact, Wang Tu is so dignified, how can his lower abdomen be numb? It was obvious that Zhu San took advantage of his unpreparedness and gently pushed him with his knee.

This head had been shaved for more than half an hour, and when Wang Tu became bald, there were seven or eight more "scratches" on his face. It is also inappropriate to say that it is "scratches", because some "scratches" are more than half an inch deep and cannot be explained by scratches.

At this time, Wang Tu was bleeding all over his face, and he looked particularly hideous and terrifying. He twisted desperately, trying to speak, but with rags in his mouth, he could only make a "hum" sound. If it was usual, this Zhu San would have to mock Wang Tu a few more words, but if he was frustrated here today, he didn't dare to make too much of a mistake.

There are still many things to do, but the torture of Wang Tu has not been carried out publicly, so he needs to be monitored here. Seeing that Zhu San had spent most of the hour just shaving Wang Tu's head, he couldn't sit still, and shouted in a deep voice: "Zhu San, hurry up!" ”

Wang Tu thought that Zhu San's punishment was over, but he felt that his face was in unbearable pain, and when he suddenly heard the frustration open his mouth to urge, Fang knew that the matter was far from over, and his heart was horrified, and he struggled hard.

Zhu San got the order of frustration, he didn't dare to slack off, and when he saw Wang Tu twisting and turning, he was afraid that these knives would lose his head and mistake his reputation, so he couldn't help but get angry, and punched Wang Tu in the stomach fiercely, and yelled: "Be honest!" ”

This punch was extremely heavy, causing Wang Tu to have a spasm in his abdomen, and the whole person shrank into a big prawn, wanting to vomit, but there was something stuffed in his mouth, but where could he vomit. Zhu San took advantage of this opportunity, and the sharp knife in his hand "brushed" and waved, and blood burst out. Wang Tu's body trembled violently, there was a continuous sound of "hmm" in his throat, his eyes widened, staring closely at the three bloody objects that fell in front of him, and his eyes couldn't tell whether it was fear or anger.

Zhu San put away the sharp knife, and a helper had already come over with a copper basin to help Wang Tu apply medicine to stop bleeding and bandage the wound. Even if it is a small wound, excessive bleeding or infection can kill you. And for the executioner, if something like this happens, it will be equivalent to ruining his job, and he will not have the face to do this business again in the future.

Seeing that the execution was over, he stood up and said, "Send him back to the post house, and drive him out of Xiangyang along with the soldiers he brought." Also, let him bring this letter to Cao Cao. ”

After saying this, Fu Zhi threw a letter to the jailer beside him, brushed his sleeves away, and he was in a hurry to see Liu Xin and talk about the implementation of the salt and iron monopoly.

Liu Xin had already told Ma Yun how to deal with Wang Tu. Ma Yun frowned, she always felt that it was a bit cruel to do this, her original intention was just to teach him a lesson, beat him a few times, and vent her evil anger for Minchan, but she didn't expect Liu Xin to cut off his nose and ears. However, Ma Yun didn't say anything, after all, things have happened, and it's useless to say anything, not to mention that in this era, people with power in their hands really want life with one word, and death with one word, what is it to cut off your nose and ears?

However, Liu Xin's handling of this can be regarded as completing the original agreement, and going further, not only did not embarrass Wang Yun, but also took this breath for him, so Ma Yun took out the loan very happily, but how did she know that Liu Xin's punishment of Wang Tu was clearly a "communiqué personal vendetta"!

When Fu Zhu rushed to the state governor's mansion, Liu Xin had already placed a thick stack of silver tickets in front of him, and all of them were the kind with a face value of 10,000 taels, a full 260 tickets.

After listening to the report on the execution, and listening to him talk about the idea of the salt and iron monopoly, Liu Xin pointed to the silver tickets in front of him, and said with a smile: "Let go of the matter of the salt and iron monopoly first, with this money, it should be no problem to support the summer harvest next year, right?" ”

"As long as there is no war, it will definitely be enough." When he saw this pile of silver tickets, his eyes lit up, but he was still a little puzzled and asked, "However, the matter of the monopoly of salt and iron has been mentioned many times by the lord, and now is the time to use the money, why not take advantage of the situation to launch it?" ”
