"Jiang Jiao, the Duke of Chu, talks about blame, decides sixty rods, and is assigned to Qinzhou."

It happened suddenly, although Jiang Jiao knew that this time others thought that they had calculated unintentionally, and it would take a lot of trouble to turn it around, but he never thought that he would be convicted without even a trial. He almost subconsciously said angrily: "How can it be that there is such a great crime to talk about blame, but there are people and material evidence? I want to see Bixia to make a statement, how can Ronger and others weave charges"

That Tsing Yi Ling Shi was not afraid at all, but smiled hesitantly: "Chu Guogong still thinks that it is a time when you are not happy to enter and exit the palace, and Bixia drinks and feasts without you?" Now there are constant rumors outside, hurting Bixia Shengming, Bixia is very angry about this, where will I be willing to see you"

"Impossible, how could Bixia refuse to see me"

Thinking of the joy of the guests and hosts when they first met, Li Longji has always regarded him as a friend since he ascended the throne, but all joys, sorrows, and sorrows will be poured out to him, and he knows how to make you happy, but now it is just three or two rumors, how can it make things so far, for a while, Jiang Jiao's eyes were round, and he tried hard to break free of his hands, but no matter how hard he tried, both arms were always held by people, and he couldn't move half a step forward under his feet. In a hurry, he couldn't help shouting: "I have been wronged like this, is there no clear-sighted person in the court?" ”

"Don't yell at me, I'm just an uninspiring history, how can I know about such a big thing?" Saying this, this Tsing Yi Ling Shi took two steps forward, and then lowered his voice and said, "It's good to teach Chu Guogong to know, it's not that no one has said anything fair." Du Shijiu Lang, the left of the province of Menxia, once sealed the book made outside the Ling, but unfortunately Bixia was on the fire, not only could not listen to it at all, but because Zhang Xiangguo played his vain discussion of state affairs, so he dismissed his left and joined the army as the Hengzhou Sihu. He used to be quite a saint, but now he has ended up like this, who dares to say more? Now, Chu Guogong, you will accept your fate."

Jiang Jiao was stunned for a while, and when he walked out of the yard left and right, he didn't realize anything. He has only met Du Shiyi twice, although he thinks that this son is wise and resolute, but the only person who has a relationship with him is his son Jiang Du, and there is no reversible friendship. But now that he is in this great disaster, there are so many civil and military people in the Manchu Dynasty, and the first person to stand up and speak for him is Du Shiyi, who is in the position of counselor

He was born in the family of the official eunuch since he was a child, and he was impressed by Li Longji when he saw him, even if he was imprisoned for a time because he was too secret, and almost went to the Lingnan Badland, and finally tried every means to become the governor of Runzhou. But it was precisely because he had been interrogated at that time but never spit out half a word related to Li Longji that the Son of Heaven would be extremely kind to him, but he didn't expect that after a while, he fell into a more desperate situation than at the beginning

When he came back to his senses, he found that he was no longer in Dali Temple, but seemed to be in front of the Qianyuan Hall of Luoyang Palace. He was stripped of his robe, and pressed to death on a torture bench, and then his hands and feet were restrained. Seeing a big man with a walking staff walk to his side, before he could say anything, a sharp pain came from his back that seemed to reach deep into the bone marrow. But after this blow, the walking stick seemed to stop suddenly, and a small cloth roll was stuffed into his mouth.

"The Duke of Chu should have been in front of the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs this time, but Bixia was extremely sympathetic and avoided others from watching. It's just that the palace cane is always on the back. Everyone knows that the Duke of Chu is pampered, so his subordinates will be measured. They are all acting on orders, and I ask the Duke of Chu not to hold a grudge against us little people...... This thing is not to keep you from crying out for pain, but to prevent you from biting your tongue, but it is not easy to treat at that time. Okay, go ahead"

But where the cane, if only the buttocks and legs are tortured, even if it is painful, but as long as the injury is well healed, the possibility of healing is naturally much greater, but the back is the gathering of muscles and bones, and the slightest carelessness will hurt the lungs. Jiang Jiao had only heard of how cruel such a situation was, but now that he had experienced it himself, he knew that those accounts were not enough to explain the pain of this cane torture.

In the first few rods, his face was already pale with pain, and if it weren't for the bite in his mouth, biting his tongue was almost inevitable. But by the time he reached ten or twenty canes, he had already fainted in pain, and the bruises and purple interlaced cane marks on his back were extremely terrifying, and gradually the skin was even more broken and bloody, and every time the standing cane with the thickness of the little finger struck down with a sharp wind, almost blood droplets would splash everywhere. Tsing Yi Ling Shi, who was being imprisoned on the side, saw this scene, but he shook his head at the execution officer who seemed to him, signaling that there was no need to stop. For a while, even though the executioner was unconscious, the cane still did not pause at all.

After about fifty touches, Jiang Jiao woke up and turned around. But this awakening made him fall into a more difficult situation, he couldn't tell whether it was numbness, pain or fire on his back, he only felt that his throat was full of a fishy sweet taste, and the cold sweat hanging down his forehead had covered his eyes, and he didn't know how to get through it. When someone untied his hands and feet and put him back on his feet, he only felt that his legs were weak and weak, and his whole body was drenched in cold sweat as if he had been fished out of the water.

"The method of mismatching, I think Chu Guogong may not be clear, so I will say a few more words here. If you ride a horse, you must go to the distribution center within 90 days; If you ride a donkey or walk, you must go to the distribution center within 120 days; As for being seriously injured and having to take a car, it is a thirty-mile walk, and you must go to the distribution center within two hundred rì. Therefore, please also ask Chu Guogong to make preparations and set off as soon as possible, otherwise he will inevitably have some twists and turns if he misses the rìzi. ”

Speaking of this, the Tsing Yi Ling Shi seemed to think of something, and said with a smile: "By the way, because of the anger of the sage, the younger brother of the Duke of Chu degraded Sima of Chūn Prefecture, and Liu Chengzu, the envoy of Dushui, was assigned to Leizhou, and there were several others who were assigned to Liu. If you go with you on the road, you can still have a companion......"

Speaking of this, he saw that Jiang Jiao was suddenly changing, and Zuihou actually vomited blood and fell softly, he was stunned for a moment and then waved his hand, and saw that Jiang Jiao, who was unconscious, and left, he breathed a sigh of relief. If Dali Temple is still Li Chaoyin, and now rì is executed like this, then Lao Er will definitely stop it or Yu Crisp Ting, but now the new Dali Temple Secretary is a soft and cowardly, and Zhang Jiazhen personally ordered it to do so, so he naturally did not dare to disobey and fight. To say that Jiang Jiao is really useless, I heard that during the years of the Queen of Heaven, there were quite a few iron-clad officials, although they fainted and recovered several times when they were tortured, they never said a word

"In the past few years, the number of times the saint has ordered the rod to be killed or punished with the rod has really increased......" After muttering this, he smiled compassionately, ordered to send the person back to Jiang's house, turned around and went back to his life.

When Gao Lishi got the news that Jiang Jiao had broken his cane and immediately set off for Qinzhou, where the distribution was located, it was already in the evening. Surprised that the Dali Temple was moving so fast, he couldn't help but fall into hesitation. Because of this sudden turmoil, Li Longji has been very bad recently, and all the concubines have never been there, and most of the time they sit in the Zhenguan Palace, and almost no one is seen. Now, he didn't want to touch his head, so after thinking about it, he decided not to report the news for the time being, but it didn't take long for Ling Shi, who was knowledgeable and interesting in Shangshu Province, to send another news.

"Thank him, and say that I remember this matter."

A confidant eunuch was sent to deliver the message, and the number one person in the Inner Servant Province, who had been standing tall since Empress Wu was in power, couldn't help but pace back and forth in the spacious straight room. Yang Siqiao went to Annan to quell the rebellion, and the former war report came back and said that he had made great achievements, no less than Wang Maozhong's two-handed showmanship. But Yang Siqiao has made great achievements, and he has no other people in the palace to support him. Now at this juncture, standing still can protect oneself, but the problem is that the person who needs to break the deadlock at this time and in his opinion, this turmoil, although it seems that one thing is going to go and the other is good, but as long as the Son of Heaven wakes up afterwards, people who think they are smart will play with fire**

"General, General"

A young chamberlain hurriedly entered the room, and when he saw Gao Lishi raising his eyebrows in annoyance, he hurriedly said, "Liu Jieyu went to Bixia's Zhenguan Palace." ”

Liu Jieyu? The first one who couldn't sit still was not Queen Wang, not Concubine Wu Hui, but Liu Jieyu?

After the initial surprise, Gao Lishi immediately opened his eyebrows and laughed, and immediately said: "Go to Shangshu Province, and ask them to immediately send the current rì song sparse section to Bixia Yulan You go in person, and say this to people......"

After a long call to the young chamberlain, Colliers returned to his seat, propped his head and groaned. Although there is no certain certainty, he is not out of the horse in person, and life or death depends on the destiny of heaven

In the Zhenguan Palace, although the face of the Son of Heaven was as heavy as water, Liu Jieyu still had a decent smile, and after saluting, she gave a few jīng snacks, and finally said: "The concubine knows that Bixia is not in a good mood now, but if it hurts the royal body for those gossips, wouldn't it make all the subjects in the world worried?" Whether it is Her Royal Highness the Empress, Concubine Hui, plus the concubine and other concubines, everyone is afraid that Bixia will be angry and spoil her body. One or two ignorant villains are harmless, and please cherish your body, don't blame people because of outsiders' words. ”

"Oh? Who do you think I'm to blame? ”

Seeing that Li Longji's face suddenly turned stronger, Liu Jieyu said unhurriedly: "The concubine is panicked, I am afraid that Bixia will blame Her Royal Highness the Queen and Concubine Hui because of people's wrong words." The rumors came from outside the palace, but Bixia didn't see the concubine, didn't it make the people in the palace panic? The concubine is now brave and daring, please see only Bixia to see the queen and Concubine Hui, so that the harem is naturally at ease. ”

According to the performance of King Teng, the words of the abolished queen came from Jiang Jiao, and Li Longji was naturally most suspicious of Concubine Wu Hui. However, after a few more careful thoughts, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Queen Wang was also very suspicious, so he didn't see anyone. At this moment, Liu Jieyu said this, and he couldn't help but hesitate. Seeing that what she said seemed to be effective, Liu Jieyu was secretly happy in her heart, so she added another sentence silently.

"However, I heard that the Cui clan of Qinghe and the Jingzhao Du clan married today, and I heard that Pei Huang, the waiter of the Yellow Gate, personally acted as the big matchmaker, and it was so lively outside."

Li Longji was frowning because of Liu Jieyu's point-in-point words, and a voice came from outside: "Everyone, Shangshu Province has sent an abridgement of today's note. ”

"I already know what Qing's words are, you retreat." When Liu Jieyu retreated, Li Longji ordered the outside room to come in, and when he unfolded the long volume of excerpts, he swept away, and the title of several copies of the first few pieces made his face appear severe for a while.

The province of Zhimen left Du Shiyi to seal and return the book
