Chapter 797: Suffering in Prison
In the past few days, Li Xin has been involved in various things, and the disposal of Li Shuangcai has not been mentioned on the agenda, and now Niu Jinsong suddenly mentioned it, which gave him a headache. In the past few days, there are not a few people who intercede for Li Shuangcai, and he has been holding back his position. But everyone knows in their hearts that such a serious incident has caused consequences in their eyes, how can they easily raise their hands and let it go? Besides, Li Shuangcai was not completely unintentional, he maintained the outer room and accepted bribes, and it was because of this that he was seized.
"Alright! and meet him. It just so happens that there is still half a day to spare. ”
Li Xin walked out of the dock first, Niu Jinsong hurriedly followed, and said in a slurred voice: "General, Li Shuangcai also has a lot of credit to my Three Guards, and he is an old man before he came south, if he deals with it, he will hurt the morale of the people in the army." ”
Li Xin did not answer Li Shuangcai's words, he thought about another thing. However, Niu Jinsong found that the Marquis of Zhenyu did not overreact to his plea, so he further persuaded: "I heard that several battalions in the army are planning to intercede on behalf of Li Shuangcai, if it is ......."
Li Xin suddenly stood up, and Niu Jinsong, who was following closely behind, almost didn't pay attention to it, but fortunately, he didn't have that scene because of his quick reaction.
"Niu Dan, if this case is handed over to you to decide, how should you deal with it?"
Niu Jinsong was stunned by this sudden question, and instinctively asked: "The general really wants to hand over Li Shuangcai to the villain?" ”
There was a bit of surprise in this question, he thought that the Marquis of Zhenyu had deliberately let Li Shuangcai go. However, what he got was a cold and helpless answer: "You first tell me how to deal with it so that the whole army and the officials and people of the whole city can be convinced." ”
"In the eyes of a villain, it is not as good as thunder and rain, and he has done enough to show the world, and then let him make meritorious contributions, which can be regarded as a comfort to the old man of the Three Guards!"
Li Xin didn't answer, but accelerated his pace, Niu Jinsong understood again, thinking that the Marquis of Zhenyu acquiesced to his suggestion, and he couldn't help but feel happy again.
Li Shuangcai has been imprisoned in Yingtianfu Prison for more than half a month, and in the early days of the explosion at the military port, he was still relatively free, and even two days after the explosion, he still commanded his subordinates to clean up the mess after the explosion. Next, due to his important responsibilities, he was soon confined to a house in Yingtianfu and placed under residential surveillance. Even so, the treatment is quite lenient and superior. It wasn't until Li Shuangcai maintained the outer room that the bribery was found out, and his treatment also took a sharp turn for the worse, and he was directly transferred to Yingtianfu Prison for detention.
On this day, Li Shuangcai was lying on his back on the straw bunk in his cell, looking at the fist-sized air hole at the top of the outer wall. At the same time, his hands were not idle, and from time to time he went deep into his clothes and scratched them for a while, and then he opened his clothes and caught a fat and plump worm from the gap, and put his neck between his upper and lower teeth and bit it in half. The Three Guards pay the most attention to the so-called hygiene, he has not tasted lice for a long time, and he does not want to relive the old feeling in this Ying Tianfu Prison. It's just that this lice don't die easily, so I have to use this simplest method to catch one and kill the other.
After a long time, I heard a faint sound of human voices coming from the outside and within, which is not common in prisons where there is always a groan or a wail. He jerked up from the straw bunk, went to the door of the cell, and looked out at the wooden bar.
Just this look, Li Shuangcai burst into tears in an instant, as if in a dream, and cried out of his mouth. As for what was being muttered, it was completely inaudible.
What Li Shuangcai saw was none other than Li Xin, the marquis of Zhenju.
With a screeching sound of metal clashing, the door of the cell was opened from the outside, and Li Xin entered the cramped cell with a short body, and sat down in front of the straw bunk.
"Have you eaten?"
Li Xin wanted to ask him if he was used to living in this prison, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back, and finally only asked if he had eaten. How do you know that it's okay not to ask, this question Li Shuangcai cried even more.
"The marquis of the town has to be the master of his humble duties, this prison is too bad to be a thing, they, they feed me pig food, inside, it is full of gravel."
These words made Li Xin's heart sour, and through the sunlight shining in from the large ventilation hole of his fist, he saw that in the dim prison cell, Li Shuangcai's hair was scattered and had long been broken into locks, and unknown filth was sticking to it, and the clothes on his body were even more tattered clothes that he had found out from nowhere, full of holes up and down, and the flesh and skin inside were faintly visible, and a pair of bare feet were even more filthy, and he didn't even have a pair of shoes. Although there are no chains and locks on his hands and feet, there are still a lot of blood stains on his bare arms.
The whole person is like two people from before, only those eyes, which still contain hope and expectation.
At this time, without waiting for Li Xin to speak, Niu Jinsong on the side couldn't help it, stepped forward and asked excitedly: "Tell me, who abused you, brother is angry with you!" ”
Li Shuangcai gradually suppressed his crying and looked up at Niu Jinsong, this deputy general Niu who had repeatedly embarrassed him, and now he only showed his true temperament in times of trouble, now seems to be extremely kind.
"The jailers in this prison are not things, they, they ......"
Halfway through the talk, Li Shuangcai couldn't say any more, what he had endured in the prison in the past half a month was inhuman. The prison guards thought that they were in danger, and poured all their resentment against the Three Guards on the fallen officer.
It turned out that the prison officials in the previous prison had been widely implicated because of the Chen brothers, and according to the will of the Zhenhou Hou, all these people were sent home and never hired. Later, it was Zhu Yun who interceded for them, and he barely kept his job, but Rao was so that everyone still deducted half a year's money. How can this make the jailers and jailers feel comfortable?
It's just that the Three Guards are in power, and even if they are dissatisfied, they can only scold a few words behind their backs. Who would have thought that the fire at the wharf had a lot to do with an officer of the Three Guards, and this person was soon imprisoned, and then there were rumors that according to the military law of the Three Guards, this person would inevitably die sooner or later.
It was also this inevitable death, and the prison guards knew that Li Shuangcai had no chance of turning over, so they sprinkled all their grievances on him. The prison officials are all familiar with the road in prison, and it is naturally easy to get rid of a toothless tiger in distress. They first made hands and feet in Li Shuangcai's meal, and directly got rancid swill ginseng and wheat bran for him as food, and after a few days, a good strong man's hungry eyes were full of gold stars, and he was very weak. However, this is the first move, and the second move is that in the middle of the night, when the door of Li Shuangcai's cell was suddenly opened, and a group of vicious prisoners were let in, and they rushed up and held Li Shuangcai with punches and kicks.
Li Shuangcai has been in battle for a long time, how can he be afraid of these prisoners of petty crimes? At first, he tried to resist, and he also knocked over several strong prisoners. But the good dog couldn't stand the wolves, and his fists were hard to beat with four hands, and in the end he was outnumbered and beaten, and it was difficult to fight back, and even the clean clothes on his body were ripped off. In the end, he was finally left with a set of tattered clothes full of stench, so that he would not be unclothed.
In this way for two days, Li Shuangcai gained experience, and he picked up a few bites of fresh swill that did not move on weekdays, and as for the lice under the table on his body, he swallowed them all after being bitten to death with a gaga. Because only when you are full can you fight with these criminals.
In the middle of the night on the third day, Li Shuangcai unexpectedly blinded the eyes of a prisoner with his bare hands, and pulled out his eyeballs alive, threw them into his mouth, chewed them a few times, and swallowed them into his stomach. This kind of violent action even those who are extremely vicious and guilty of capital crimes can't help but shudder.
Since that night, Li Shuangcai has been fighting these prisoners. There are always a few surprises, either the other party covers Li Shuangcai with a sack and punches and kicks him, or Li Shuangcai takes advantage of the chaos to sneak attack and seriously injure several prisoners.
In this way, you come and go, under the high degree of mental tension, it is indeed not easy for Li Shuangcai to survive to this day. Li Shuangcai intermittently recounted his unbearable experience in the past half a month, and when he said that he had severely injured the criminal prisoner, his face unconsciously flashed with a trademark smug smile.
This made Li Xin even more bitter, the Three Guards were able to fight the tiger generals, and he suffered such a great humiliation in this Ying Tianfu prison, and he was rarely angry. Without Li Xin to speak, Niu Jinsong couldn't hold back for a long time, grabbed the jailer next to him, and asked, "Say!" Did you do it? ”
The jailer had long been frightened, and from the first step Li Xin had entered the Yingtianfu Prison, he had already realized that he was in danger today. He never imagined that the dignified marquis would come to see a prisoner who had committed such a big mistake. However, at this point, there was no point in regretting anything, he could only fall to his knees with a puff, kowtowing like pounding garlic.
"The military master spares his life, the military master spares his life!"
Seeing this scene, Niu Jinsong was like a mirror in his heart, and Li Shuangcai's humiliation in prison was eight times out of ten. Nine was done by the collusion of these jailers and jailers.
"Someone!"
In a fit of rage, Niu Jinsong suddenly called out to the soldiers of the pro-soldier camp, and under the shouting, a pro-soldier came in.
Niu Jinsong shouted categorically: "Go!" The convener, take down all the jailers and jailers in the Tianfu Prison for Lao Tzu, wait, wait for the town captive marquis to fall! ”
The soldiers were ordered to go out, and the jailer who knelt on the ground and kowtowed like garlic was already frightened into a mess, and even kowtowed and begged for mercy. Niu Jinsong looked at this person's appearance of a nest and became angry, raised his legs, kicked him on the shoulder, and kicked him on his back.
"You dare to move the people of the Three Guards, you are really tired of it!"
