"Duan Ruiyuan, the facts are there, what else do you have to say!"

Xiao Xiong and the others came prepared, and they were not slow to tell what happened, and after a while, the three of them had already explained Duan Ruiyuan's bribery in detail, and when the three of them had finished their statements, Hongqing picked up the startling wood again, slapped it heavily, and broke his throat with a loud voice. 【Starter】

"This is a false accusation, the lower officials have never asked for bribes, it is they who have framed the lower officials, and the lower officials will not accept it, and they will not accept it if they die!"

Although the time for the three witnesses to state was not very long, it was enough for Duan Ruiyuan to come back to his senses, and he thought that no one was present when he asked for bribes three times, so he refused to admit his guilt like this, and he denied it with his teeth clenched.

"Framed? Hey, what a frame, the three of them are thousands of miles away from each other, and they have nothing to do with each other, how can they frame Yu Er together, it's really ridiculous! At this time, you still dare to quibble, it's very good, come on, take this guy to wear a flower feather, drag it down, and hit fifty boards! ”

Hearing that Duan Ruiyuan was still there to carry it, Hongqing was not so easy to speak, first refuted what he said mercilessly, and finally broke off, this is going to be punished in court.

"Wow!"

As soon as Hongqing gave this order, several palace guards immediately agreed, rushed forward, took off Duan Ruiyuan's crown, and dragged it down the hall.

"Disorderly life, you are chaotic life, the subordinate officials do not accept it, and they do not accept ......"

As soon as he heard that he was going to be beaten by the board, Duan Ruiyuan panicked, screaming hoarsely, and struggling indiscriminately, but he was just a civil official, how could he break free from the clamps of those powerful palace guards, and was directly dragged to the entrance of the hall.

"Wait!"

Seeing that Duan Ruiyuan was about to get worse, Le Xi Hengke couldn't sit still, stood up regardless of it, raised his hand, and shouted a word.

Le Xiheng shouted loudly, but the problem was that the palace guards didn't pay attention to it, so they didn't pay attention to it at all, and dragged Duan Ruiyuan down the hall, pushed him to the ground, pulled off his pants, picked up the board, and beat him mercilessly, only a few times, which made Duan Ruiyuan howl wildly.

"Lord Zhang, the lower officials think this is a trick to bend in, you can't sit idly by."

Seeing that it was useless to drink alone, Le Xiheng's old face suddenly turned as black as the bottom of a pot, but he didn't dare to argue with Hongqing Gong Gong and drum to drum in court, nor did he want to just sit back and watch Duan Ruiyuan's henchman finish, so he had no choice but to bow his hand to Zhang Tingyu and shouted with righteous indignation, trying to provoke Zhang Tingyu's hatred and hatred.

"Don't be impatient, you will have a chance to perform in a while."

Zhang Tingyu is a cautious individual, how could he be moved by Le Xiheng's little trick, Shuangchun closed tightly, his face was as indifferent as water, as if he had never heard Le Xiheng's words, but Hongqing laughed, pressed his hand, and nodded meaningfully.

"Doom ......"

As soon as Hongqing said this, Le Xiheng's heart suddenly jumped wildly, his eyes rolled wildly a few times, he should have been choked on the spot, he couldn't sit or stand, and he felt uncomfortable like a thorn all over his body.

"Where's Drow?"

Hongqing didn't pay attention to the shocked Le Xiheng, nor did he look at Duan Ruiheng, who was being beaten and cried his father and mother, and looked around at the officials with different expressions with a solemn face, and broke off his throat in a cold voice.

"Down, down, down, in!"

Zhuo Erluo, a person from the Blue Banner, a servant under the Ninth Master's Sect, Kangxi forty-three years into the Ministry of Officials Examination Department as a pen post, Kangxi forty-six years to be promoted to the director, Kangxi fifty years to promote the outside Lang, fifty-three years and promoted to Langzhong, although not the examination of the Department of Meritorious Service Seal Langzhong, but in the division is also regarded as a backbone figure, but also one of the most resistant to the things assigned by Hongqing in the past, and even sometimes in front of Hongqing, dare to talk nonsense, but now I see Duan Ruiyuan howling miserably, Zhuo Erluo still has the arrogance of the past, Hearing Hongqing's roll call, Qilu was immediately frightened, but when he saw him rushing out of the queue in a panic, he fell to his knees tremblingly, and his speech was so frightened that he couldn't speak.

"Lord Zhuo, it's about to be the New Year, is the silver still good?"

Seeing that Zhuo Erluo, who had been dragged in front of him in the past, was actually scared like this, the corners of Hongqing's mouth immediately showed a sneer of contempt, and he asked in a playful tone.

"Ah, this ......, Xiaguan, Xiaguan......"

As soon as he heard Hongqing's strange question, Zhuo Erluo's originally panicked heart suddenly became a little more panicked, and he hesitated for a while, but he didn't say why, and the sweat on his head was like a spring, so he was embarrassed to say how embarrassed he was.

"Do you want Lord Zhuo to say it yourself, or is this king looking for someone to help you say it, the former can be regarded as your surrender, and the latter, just look at Duan Ruiyuan's fate to know the clue, where to go, you can see it yourself."

Looking at Zhuo Erluo's terrified face, Hongqing felt that even if he rolled over a period of coolness, there was no side, in the career of the official department for more than a year, Hongqing was fed up with bird anger, and there was no way, the official department was the place where the old man stared the most, plus there was such an important minister as Zhang Tingyu in charge, before there was absolute certainty, Hongqing really didn't dare to move the knife in the official department easily, and now, finally when it was time to calculate the general account, it was not good to have fun with Zhuo Erluo and others, and the evil spirit in Hongqing's heart couldn't be eliminated.

"Xiaguan, Xiaguan no, I don't know why, Xiaguan, Xiaguan ......"

Zhuo Erluo's career has gone too smoothly, since he entered the office, it has almost climbed up one footprint in three years, it is only less than forty, and he is already a member of the five grades of the Ministry of Officials, which is much stronger than those who are from a good brand, but it is precisely because it has always been too smooth, and the ability to resist the wind and waves is enough to choke it, Hongqing has not officially started the interrogation, he is already completely confused, and he answers indiscriminately, and it is only a line away from the collapse.

"Lord Zhuo doesn't seem to have a very good memory, this is not good, okay, then the king will give you a hint, yesterday from the fourth quarter of the hour, to the end of the Shen time, you met a total of six officials, five from various ministries, one from Hunan, if Lord Zhuo can't think of something, then the king has to ask you to taste the taste of the board with Duan Ruiyuan."

For such cheap bones as Zhuo Erluo, Hongqing didn't look at it, and he didn't bother to play tricks with him, so he teased him without any scruples.

"Ah, no, no, the lower official has been recruited, the lower official has been recruited, the lower official should not be confused for a while, the lower official ......"

Hearing Hongqing's words, Zhuo Erluo's already fragile psychological defense line had completely collapsed, and he knelt on the ground tremblingly, and babbled in detail about accepting red envelopes from officials who reported on his work yesterday, and couldn't help but be so frightened that even the bribery in the past few days had all confessed, this kind of consciousness was really much beyond Hongqing's expectations.

"Come on, let this guy sign the pledge!"

Duan Ruiyuan's punishment in the hall has not yet ended, Zhuo Erluo has completely confessed, although Hongqing is surprised by Zhuo Erluo's fragility, but he doesn't have time to talk to him, and with a wave of his hand, he has already shouted a loud voice.

"Wow!"

Hongqing gave this order, and the two palace guards who were in charge of the transcript stepped forward and pressed Zhuo Erluo to sign it.

"Come on, take Zhuo Erluo to wear the flower feather, and postpone it to participate!"

Although the crimes that Zhuo Erluo confessed in court were only a small part of the many crimes he committed, the amount involved was as much as 8,000 taels, enough to send him to the guillotine.

"Bang!"

Not long after Zhuo Erluo was escorted down, he saw that the two palace guards had already walked up to the hall with Duan Ruiyuan, who was covered in blood, ignoring that Duan Ruiyuan was already unconscious, and threw him down to the ground heavily, and a muffled sound broke out, which immediately made the faces of all the officials in the hall change wildly.

"Ouch, it hurts me, ouch, ouch, ......"

Fifty boards are not so easy to bear, poor Duan Rui is far from just a weak person, how have he experienced such suffering, it is good to be in a coma, but after being beaten, he woke up, and when he woke up, even if he was in pain, how could he still have any demeanor, lying on the ground and moaning endlessly.

"Duan Ruiyuan, do you want to recruit or not?"

Duan Ruiyuan's appearance was very pitiful, but Hongqing would not have the slightest pity, no matter how miserable his moaning was, he picked up the shocking wood and slapped it, and then he broke off with a strong voice.

"The lower official, the lower official is not guilty, the lower official is not guilty......"

Duan Ruiyuan is a person who has served in the local area, although he seems to be weak, but his bones are much harder than Zhuo Erluo, even if he was tortured and suffered miserably, he still didn't plan to confess, there was no side, just because of the crimes he committed, according to the law, it is enough to kill the head, and if he recruits, he will die, if he doesn't recruit, maybe there will be a room for turning, maybe as soon as the eighth master makes a move, he can still have a way to live, because of this, although the pain in his body is terrible, Duan Ruiyuan still has a hard mouth.

"Don't recruit? It's very good, come on, drag it down, and play thirty more boards! ”

Although according to the evidence in his hand, it is enough to determine Duan Ruiyuan's crime, but if there is no personal confession, in terms of law, it is flawed, and it is very likely to be used by the eighth master and others, and this is obviously not a situation that Hongqing is happy to see, if he doesn't make a move, he will do it, and under this shot, this case must be handled as an iron case, in view of this, this Duan Ruiyuan still dares to resist to the end, Hongqing's heart is angry, he picked up the shocking wood and slapped it, and drank again.

"Slow"

Hongqing gave this order, and all the palace guards didn't dare to slack off, they all responded to the promise, rushed forward again, and set up Duan Ruiyuan to drag him down the hall again, but at this moment, he heard a shout and stopped sounding again, and then saw a person rushing out from the side, blocking the way of the palace guards......
