Chapter 158: Don't Say It? Left and right, go to punishment!
"I have long heard that your five surnames and seven wangs are acting unscrupulously and unscrupulously in this Chang'an City, and when I see it today, it seems that I am still too lenient with you on weekdays!"
Li Shimin condescendingly looked at Wang Yuan, who was lying on the ground, grinning in pain, but what he said made Wang Yuan's heart sink more and more, and finally his body began to swing. ββTop Novel,www.
"Okay, don't pretend there, do you come by yourself, or this king will ask someone to escort you over!"
Li Yuanba doesn't care what you Wang Yuan is thinking, the anger in his chest has erupted irrepressibly, more than a dozen innocent lives, although they did not die directly at the hands of these people, but if it wasn't for their own selfish desires, would these fresh lives die?
This group of people lacks even the most basic humanity, can they be expected not to do anything that harms the interests of Datang?
"Ahem......"
Wang Yuan coughed heavily a few times and struggled to get up from the ground.
Li Yuanba moved a chair, sat in front of Wang Yuan, pointed not far away and said, "Look back, who is that?" β
Wang Yuan had been kicked out since he entered this iron door, where did he have time to observe what was in this interrogation hall?
When he followed Li Yuanba's fingers and looked behind the side, he was surprised, because Wang Ba, the number one thug of their Wang family, was actually cut off three of his limbs, and he sat on a bench with more air in and less breath, obviously dying soon.
"You, you're a king?" Wang Yuan looked at Wang Ba hesitantly, a little unable to believe his eyes.
"Hehe......"
Wang Ba turned his head to look at Wang Yuan with dull eyes, and did not speak, but laughed nervously.
"What did you do to him?" Wang Yuan looked at Li Yuanba angrily, although his voice was very loud, it was difficult to hide his fear.
"Haven't you seen it all?" Li Yuanba sneered and said: "This Wang Ba dares to kill the prince on the top of Lishan Mountain, this king just cut off his limbs, which is already considered merciful!" In addition......"
Speaking of which. Li Yuanba paused, and said word by word: "No matter what you think of this king in your heart, this king is still the prince, you are just a prisoner, if you dare to be rude to this king again, don't blame this king for being unkind to you!" β
"You ......"
Wang Yuan's breath was suffocated, and he didn't dare to speak again.
In fact, since that day's gambling fight, Li Yuanba has made the Taiyuan Wang family lose face, and the entire Wang family. Except for a very few people, everyone hated Li Yuanba to the core, and hated to eat his flesh, so if he wanted Wang Yuan to be obedient, he could only use violence.
"This king asks you now, you have to answer truthfully, if you dare to be half false, this king is your example!" Li Yuanba looked at Wang Yuan coldly and continued: "Two years ago. How many people died in the mines where you waited? β
Wang Yuan's face changed slightly, hesitated for a while, and said, "It's been too long, I forgot!" β
"When was the gold mine discovered in the mine?"
Li Yuanba did not get angry because Wang Yuan did not answer the question. Instead, he continued to ask.
"What, what gold mine? The mineral deposits at the northern foot of Lishan are only iron ore, where is the gold mine? I don't understand the meaning of the prince's words! β
It's all at this time, and Wang Yuan is still pretending to be confused. I don't know if he's really stupid or fake.
"What a Wang Yuan, when he is dying, he is still pretending to be crazy and stupid! Didn't you forget? Don't you know what this king means? Okay, then the king will let you remember it for a long time! β
I don't know. Isn't this teasing Li Yuanba's anger, he waved his hand and said, "Left and right, go to punishment!" β
"No!"
The two black-clothed jailers who were in charge of Dali Temple responded respectfully, and walked towards Wang Yuan with a cruel smile.
"You, what are you going to do?"
Wang Yuan's body began to tremble slightly, and his voice trembled slightly as he looked at the two jailers.
"Offended!"
The two jailers didn't have time to answer Wang Yuan's question, didn't they see that the current saint and several princes were watching there? Where did they, the lowest level of the Tang Dynasty, receive such treatment?
If you haven't done the things explained by the prince yet, what are you waiting for?
"Huh!"
The two jailers slammed Wang Yuan to his feet and walked towards the right wall.
I saw that there were not many torture tools on that wall, after all, Li Shimin practiced benevolent government, but despite this, there were still bamboo book clips, a bone crusher hammer the thickness of a baby's arm, and a short blade designed to be jagged (I said I made it up, do you believe it?). οΌβ¦β¦
The torture tools were even stained with black and red blood, and it is clear that these tools were still used from time to time.
"No, no...... Majesty, majesty, I'm telling the truth, small, grass people really don't know what gold mines...... Ah......h
Wang Yuan was frightened by the torture tools hanging on the wall, but before he could finish his sentence, the jailer on the left took the short blade from the wall and slashed at Wang Yuan's back.
The sharp barb on the knife pierced Wang Yuan's back, and suddenly the red and bright blood poured out, and the jailer on the right held Wang Yuan in place, the more he struggled, the wound caused by the short knife that had not been pulled out behind him was constantly expanded, and the flesh and blood were dripping.
Li Yuanba looked at the scene in front of him coldly, and said viciously: "This king gave you a second chance, how many people were trapped in the mine back then?" And how big are the reserves of gold mines? If you say it, the king will have you drugged it, and if you don't say it, all the tools on the wall will come out of you. β
This Wang Yuan looks quite soft, but until now there is still a hard energy supporting him, and he wails bitterly: "Villain, the grass people really don't know what the prince said!" β
Li Yuanba smiled: "I don't know? Left and right, continue! β
At the sound of the order, the jailer, who was still slowly slashing the short blade down Wang Yuan's back, pulled out the knife suddenly.
"Poof!"
The blood flowed like a waterfall, and the blade with white flesh and blood looked particularly terrifying in this slightly dim light.
The jailer wiped a handful of spray from the blood on his face, sneered, took the bone crusher from the wall, aimed it at Wang Yuan's ankle, and knocked it down fiercely.
The bonecrusher hammer, about a foot long, was as thick as a mallet, and the top was full of protrusions, like a mace.
"Click!"
A crisp sound of bones shattering sounded, and a little blood splattered from the hammer head of the bone crusher hammer, although it was not as terrifying as the short blade, but the pain of breaking bones directly made Wang Yuan faint in pain.
"Whoa!"
The jailer did not stop there, but scooped a scoop of cold and biting water from the wooden barrel on one side and splashed it on Wang Yuan's face.
He woke up faintly, opened his eyes slightly, and then began to move again because of the pain in his back.
But the more you move, the more painful you are, and the more you don't want to live, the more you want to move.
This repeated pain made Wang Yuan couldn't help but sweat profusely, and when the sweat full of salt soaked into the deep wound on his back, it exacerbated his pain.
Li Shimin, who took this scene into his eyes on the side, was still expressionless, when he led the troops to fight, he had experienced scenes that were even more cruel and bloody than this, a hundred times or a thousand times, how could he change color because of this little torture in front of him?
However, Li Chengqian and the four little guys seem to have never seen the method of torture, and their faces are a little pale at the moment, but their spirits are very good, it seems that they have fought hard in Lishan before, and they have already brought some blood to their bodies!
Li Yuanba laughed, this smile seemed to be like a spring breeze in the eyes of others, but in Wang Yuan's eyes, it was extremely hateful, comparable to a demon!
"The third chance, or the previous question, do you say it?" Li Yuanba asked for the third time.
Wang Yuan gasped for a long time and said, "Say, I say!" β
"How many people were trapped in the well back then?"
"One, eighteen people ......"
Li Yuanba sneered: "Until now, you are still lying!" As far as this king knows, the people who work in your mine should be nineteen people! What, you're not honest yet? β
"Wang, my lord, on the third day after the iron mine was emptied, a man named Chang Xiaochuan found me and handed me an ore for examination, and when I inquired with the blacksmith of the clan, I found that it was actually a gold ore. Afterwards, in order to prevent the news from leaking, I ordered someone to kill Chang Xiaochuan and throw his body in the barren valley of the Qinling Mountains. β
Wang Yuan was taken aback, he was fed up with this kind of pain, so naturally he didn't dare to lie anymore.
"Chang Xiaochuan? Isn't it Chang Laohan's youngest son? Li Yuanba's heart moved inexplicably when he heard this name, and he chose to be angry: "Kill people and destroy their mouths, abandon the wilderness!" Even if you and the Wang family are big families, this sin is unavoidable! β
The pain on Wang Yuan's face grew stronger, and he didn't dare to say more.
"Hmph, how big are the gold reserves? Where does the gold come from? Li Yuanba forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and said with a cold snort.
Wang Yuan struggled in pain twice, and finally said, "I don't know how much!" However, the gold condensed has been more than 180,000 taels! β
"More than 180,000 taels?"
Li Shimin's eyes narrowed instantly, he didn't expect that a mineral deposit that seemed to be a small gold mine would contain such huge reserves.
Moreover, with such a huge reserve of gold mines, the Taiyuan Wang family dared not report it and dug it privately.
Damn it, damn it!
"Where did all the gold from the mine go?" A grim smile appeared on Li Yuanba's face.
The pain in Wang Yuan's eyes was even stronger, and his voice trembled and said: "Chang'an Villa left 200,000 taels, and the rest were all sent to Taiyuan!" β
"What did you do with the gold?" Li Yuanba's eyes lit up, and his voice became even higher-pitched: "Began to build weapons on a large scale, recruit soldiers, secretly train dead soldiers, accumulate grain and grass, collude with Fanbang barbarians, and intend to break away from the Tang Dynasty and establish himself as the king, yes or no?"
