Even Yang Zhen didn't expect that this investigation would have such a gain, the small secret room found by Ruan Tong in front of him was not only full of torture instruments, but also a girl who was only wearing obscene clothes and pants, covered in wounds, and looked breathless. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It was a secret room hidden in an exquisite boudoir, but the cleverly disguised portal did not hide Ruan Tong's eyes. Looking at the few torture instruments that were still stained with blood, Yang Zhen frowned slightly, and guessed that this woman was tortured like this by the torture instruments here: "Is she still alive?" "That's what he cares about the most.

Ruan Tongzheng squatted in front of the woman, and his hand reached out at the end of his nose before he said, "There is still some breath, it should still be alive." These guys are too heavy, and they use such a heavy punishment on such a weak woman! How can they do it! Even Ruan Wu, who grew up fighting on the streets, couldn't help but feel sorry when he saw this situation.

Yang Zhen snorted: "This is going to ask those people below." As he spoke, he had already looked around the entire secret room, where not only were there leather whips, sharp needles and other torture instruments, but also several pottery urns were particularly eye-catching. Yang Zhen stepped forward and lifted the lid on the urn, and a strange aroma of wine rushed straight to his nose.

"There's something weird about this wine!" Yang Zhen frowned, and then guessed the use of this wine: "I heard that many Qinglou will make a kind of spring wine to make women who refuse to sell their bodies into submission, it seems that this is it." ”

"Erlang, with this evidence, we are not empty-handed this time, right?" Wang Hai picked up a pig-hair brush stained with a lot of blood stains and asked.

Yang Zhen looked at these novel things around him with some disgust, nodded and said, "The torture tools here are enough as evidence, not to mention that there is a seriously injured person here." No matter how powerful the Li family is this time, it will be difficult to get out of it. Then he commanded, "Go, take the people out first, and then talk about the rest." ”

When everyone downstairs saw Yang Zhen and they really hugged a woman downstairs, their faces changed. Those guests were a little excited, after all, there was a lot of trouble to see; The people in the soft red mansion had gloomy faces one by one, especially Li Chengji's eyes flickered, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Li Chengji, we have found a lot of torture tools and medicinal wine from the secret room upstairs that you forced the woman to submit, and this girl must also be the poor person you are forcing her to submit. Now that the human and material evidence is complete, do you have anything else to say? Yang Zhen no longer beat around the bush, and looked directly at Li Chengji's eyes full of resentment and said.

"Good, good! It seems that you haven't been trying to deal with me for a day or two, and you really have a lot of intentions. This time, I am not wronged! Although Li Chengji said that he did not complain, his expression was full of resentment. He really didn't expect the county government to dare to do this, and he openly broke into the soft red building to search for it with just one excuse, and it was really difficult to get away with it this time.

"Our county government is just handling cases impartially. As the so-called Skynet is restored, it is not leaky, since you have committed something, we will always catch the evidence of the crime. Yang Zhen's answer was so sonorous and powerful, and then he waved his hand and said: "Bring Li Chengji and several other stewards here back to the county government and judge by the county magistrate." Don't forget to bring all the evidence from the secret room! ”

"Yes!" Those officials were in a mood at the moment, knowing that their own family had the upper hand, this was a majesty that the county government had never had, so some people took out the iron chain they brought with them and put it between the necks of Huiniang and a few others, but no one dared to take it with their hands.

Yang Zhen also understood the truth that he should not be persecuted too much, so he just stretched out his hand and said, "Li Chengji, please!" ”

"Humph!" Li Chengji's mind turned sharply, knowing that if the crime of resisting arrest was implemented, it would only become more serious, so he had no choice but to walk outside the building according to Yang Zhen's intention after a cold snort.

Several other officials went straight to the second floor, and soon brought down the bloodstained, rather novel and strange torture instruments, as well as an urn of fan spring wine.

This time, those guests can be regarded as a long insight, the second master of the Li family, who has always been rampant in Zhuji County, and almost no one dares to provoke, was actually taken away by the county officials, and they still saw it with their own eyes, which was enough for them to brag to others for a while. In addition, this incident is also closely related to Qinglou and lynching, so it will inevitably be more eye-catching.

And some people with a heart even speculate that it will not take long for this matter to spread throughout Zhuji, and even in neighboring prefectures and counties, I am afraid that it will be a great blow to the reputation of the Li family.

Just after Yang Zhen and the others took Li Chengji and the others, a member of the Li family in the soft red mansion had rushed straight home to report this major event to the two masters in the family.

Above the Lijia guest hall, it is also brightly lit like a soft red mansion at the moment, and there are several Kunqu opera singers invited from Jiangsu on the side babbling and singing.

The two brothers, Li Chenggang and Li Chengjin, were talking to a man in silk clothes with a big belly with a smile on their faces. The person who can make the two masters of the Li family treat each other so warmly is naturally not a simple person, this person is the most famous grain merchant in Zhejiang, Xu Tongzhou.

Because he had just used the banquet and was toasted a lot, Xu Tongzhou's face was very ruddy and his interest was quite high. At this moment, he was introducing the wonders of Kunqu Opera to the Li brothers with great interest, and when he was happy, he couldn't help but hum a few words to confirm his opinion.

However, his grand argument is basically playing the piano to the cow, although the Li brothers seem to listen to it with relish, but in fact, they don't understand anything. Today, the Kunqu Opera team is arranged here, just to cater to the interests of this master.

It wasn't until his words came to an end that Li Chenggang greeted him: "Brother Xu is really high-minded, listening to your words is really better than reading a book for ten years." As he spoke, he tentatively changed the subject: "I just don't know about the purchase of grain we just mentioned, can you give me a letter?" ”

Xu Tongzhou picked up the tea bowl and drank tea to moisten his throat as usual, and then said: "I really don't understand it, in the past, you sold grain to me, why is it the other way around today?" And the amount of food you ask for is quite large, which is really incomprehensible. ”

"This ......" The two brothers of the Li family glanced at each other, and Li Chenggang said: "Your Excellency, I don't know what to do, in fact, we don't buy grain for ourselves, but for the government." The grain that is often closed in our county is insufficient, so just in case, we thought of buying grain. But after all, this matter is not trivial, in order not to cause trouble, the county government invited our Li family to come forward. Li Chenggang had already thought about this reason, so it was smooth to say at the moment.

This reason is also easy to convince, after all, the affairs of the government are always unclear. Xu Tongzhou also nodded thoughtfully: "I see." Since the government asked you to do it, I naturally have no problem. However, this is not a small amount of food, and we will have to wait until next year to get it together, can you explain it? ”

"As long as it is sent to our county before the beginning of spring next year, everything will not be a problem." When Li Chenggang heard that he had agreed to the business, he was immediately overjoyed and thanked him again and again.

At this time, a head suddenly poked in from outside the hall, but it was Li Fugui, the housekeeper of the family. Xu Tongzhou was still saying polite words, but when he saw this situation, the conversation was stagnant. Li Chenggang saw that his subordinates didn't understand the rules so much, and his face was flat and he wanted to scold, but after seeing clearly that the person who came was Li Fugui, and his face was full of panic, he changed his mind and gave his brother a look.

Li Chengjin understood, and after confessing his guilt to Xu Tongzhou, he went out. Turning the door, he asked in a low voice, "What is the big thing that makes you so anxious to disturb us?" Didn't know we were talking about a big deal? ”

"The third master forgives the sins, it is really a big matter, and the little ones dare not report it." Li Fugui swallowed his saliva as he spoke, looking particularly nervous: "Someone from the Gang Soft Red Mansion came to report that the second master was taken away by someone from the county government. Some of the things there were also found out by the women who were being trained. ”

"What?" Although Li Chengjin was prepared, when he heard such news, he was still shocked and couldn't help but scream. But then he stabilized his mind again, grabbed Li Fugui's shirt and said, "Is this true? Did he see it with his own eyes? ”

The person who came to report was in the building at the time, and they saw Yang Zhen from the county government and they carried the woman down from the second floor. The woman was still covered in injuries and was clearly ......"

Li Chengjin waved his hand to interrupt the other party's specific description, and his brows were already tightly furrowed: "This time things are a little difficult." I have already advised the second child not to get too involved in that kind of thing, which is good, not only will he be folded in, but it may also affect our entire Li family......"

What he said just now obviously alarmed the two people who were still talking inside. Xu Tongzhou saw that something had happened to the Li family, so he didn't stay any longer, and only said a few words of greeting and left. After seeing off the big guest, Li Chenggang looked at Li Chengjin and the others with some dissatisfaction: "What's going on?" Why is there such a fuss? If this business doesn't work out, see how I punish you! ”

"Big brother, it's the second brother who has an accident." Li Chengjin didn't pay attention to his brother's anger, and hurriedly told him about the soft red mansion.

At this time, Li Chenggang was also a little dumbfounded: "How can this be? ”

"Obviously, this is someone from the county government who wants to deal with us. And the second child just let them pinch the handle. Li Chengjin speculated.

"How did the people in the county government find us? Could it be that they found something? Also, if this happened, why didn't Jiang Chong, the master book, leak any news to us? Li Chenggang's reaction was the same as that of his younger brother, who was very dissatisfied with Jiang Chong.

"Big brother, there is no point in pursuing these now, our top priority is to rescue the second child from the county government, and eliminate the impact of this incident is the most important thing." Li Chengjin, who had calmed down, hurriedly reminded.

When he said this, Li Chenggang calmed down a little, and said in a deep voice: "What you said is good. You must get the dick out as soon as possible and control things as much as possible. Otherwise...... Tomorrow morning, no, now we will go to the county office! ”
