Chapter One Hundred and Four—Greed
Before the red-burned knocker fell on him, Huang Qiuguan, who had just finished the whipping, was already shouting loudly.
"Guys, do you really want to make a mortal enmity with our Huang clan? As long as you stop now, what do you want? The old man can give you, not only money, but even the official position, the old man is not unable to think of a way, don't you want to appear in front of people openly? ”
“……”
Seeing that the red and shiny knocker was about to fall on him, Huang Qiuguan discarded all other thoughts, and opened his mouth to make all kinds of promises, but it was a pity that the executioner soldier, after looking back at the expressionless Gao Guard, decisively pressed the chrome iron on Master Huang's chest.
"Ahh
A heart-rending scream instantly resounded in the sky above the Yellow Mansion.
Without waiting for Huang Qiuguan, who was panting and rolling the whites of his eyes, to continue to rest for a while, the second piece of ferrochrome was handed over again.
Seeing that touch of red getting closer and closer, Huang Qiuguan struggled to get up, "Guys, I said, can't I say it?" ”
The little soldier holding the second piece of chrome iron looked at Master Huang crying bitterly on the ground, and said that he wanted to recruit, and couldn't help but hesitate a little, and turned his head to look at Gao Guard again.
"Hesitating about what? If you don't press it again, which piece of red-hot Luo Tie will soon fall on you, believe it or not? Gao Shoubei sneered.
The soldier holding the ferrochrome couldn't help but shudder, and pressed the ferrochrome in his hand without hesitation.
"Ahh
Another terrible howl sounded, and at the same time, it also crushed Huang Qiuguan's psychological defense.
As he twitched on the ground, he said intermittently, "I...... Recruit, recruit ......"
Seeing this, Gao Shoubei sneered: "What's the matter, now you want to recruit?" Why don't you do it, my Master Huang, let's continue to play, you watched the brothers work hard for a long time, prepared so much torture, and in a blink of an eye you softened, didn't you let the brothers work for half a day? You're a bit unkind! ”
It's good that Gao Shoubei didn't say this, but as soon as his voice fell, Huang Qiuguan struggled to raise his head, looking at the soldiers with hideous expressions, and the torture they were preparing, and couldn't help but shudder.
"I'll recruit, I'll recruit ...... all" Huang Qiuguan couldn't wait to pour beans into the bamboo tube, and gave out most of the belongings he had worked so hard to save, just wanting to exchange for temporary tranquility.
It's a pity that this idea of his was quickly dashed!
Gao Shoubei first signaled his subordinates to look for the location where Huang Qiuguan confessed, and then turned around and signaled that the criminal law did not need to stop!
While enjoying the torture, Huang Qiuguan begged loudly for mercy, saying that he had confessed all his money......
It's a pity that in his wail, Gao Shoubei's mind returned to Yangzhou again, and the words that Zhang Yun said before he and the others left resurfaced in his mind.
Don't care about those landlords and old money, how good they are in their mouths, what nonsense they have already confessed, you must not believe it, you must tell you the poor way, all the torture will be given to them, and then you will find out that those landlords and old treasures will spit out the secrets they have never said little by little, remember, remember! ’
The thought turned here, and a grim smile appeared on the corner of Gao Shoubei's mouth, "Next, let Lao Tzu see, what that magical Taoist master said is right?" Hey hey ......"
Gao Shou's self-talk was not small, and the cronies naturally heard it!
Therefore, no one dared to do stupid things in the future, and before Gao Shoubei did not speak again, Huang Qiuguan's torture was no longer dared to stop.
What happened next really surprised Gao Shoubei!
Under round after round of torture, Huang Qiuguan was forced to spit out little by little what he didn't want to confide in in order to get a moment of tranquility......
Just when Gao Shoubei was beaming with pride in his heart, "My lord, this old boy can't be tortured, and he is already dead!" ”
"Ahh What the? ”
Hurriedly came to Huang Qiuguan, who was already paralyzed on the ground, stretched out his hand to probe, and found that the old boy was really not breathing, although it was a little regrettable, but everything that should have been known should have been checked, and the rest could only rely on luck, Gao Shoubei stood up and sighed, and then said sharply.
"What are you doing? I'm waiting for Lao Tzu to invite you to dinner! ”
Dozens of people dispersed in a hurry, and began to follow the information recruited by Huang Qiuguan before his death......
Looking at the dead man who still had his eyes open and his expression was very hideous, Gao Shoubei was extremely bored in his heart, and he drew his war knife and gave him a slash. "Call you uncle, you still scare Lao Tzu when you die......"
……
The time soon came to the second half of the night, and hundreds of people were pushing carts and carrying burdens, escorting a few young masters and young ladies from the Huang family out of the Huang family's mansion.
Gao Shoubei looked back at the Huang family's mansion, recalling the orders of General Yan and Daochang Zhang, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
"Burn this place for Lao Tzu......"
The fire burned in an instant, and the Huang family's mansion of hundreds of acres provided sufficient fuel, and the fire almost reflected half of the sky.
Looking at the sky-high fire in front of him, smelling the smell of meat from time to time, Gao Shoubei finally sneered.
As soon as this fire burns, all the behaviors of himself and others inside will be covered up.
The Huang clan must be beaten into thieves, before coming, General Yan told and instructed that the money and property copied must be handed over truthfully, and it is not allowed to conceal it, and it must not be like Jinyiwei and Dongchang raided the house, obviously copied millions of taels of silver, but only handed over tens of thousands of taels of silver, and the rest went into private pockets.
In the end, it was even more demanded that a few direct descendants of the Huang family must be arrested, brought to Yangzhou for trial, and their conviction of treason must be publicly announced, so as to whitewash this operation and prove that it was the imperial court that arrested the rebels, and did not intend to target the landlord class in the world......
"Hey......
Gao Shoubei couldn't help but sneer, such a huge amount of silver money passed through his hand, and he still wanted to hand it over truthfully?
Gao Garrison believed that other colleagues who went to various places to carry out the task of arresting rebels and raiding homes could not be so honest, so even if General Yan knew it, would he still dare to offend the public?
His eyes swept over the few waste-like young masters, and Gao Shoubei sneered in his heart, people must be arrested, otherwise it would be blatant disobedience, after all, there were so many people watching the scene.
But if these young masters and young ladies are not in good health, they die on the way and can't get to Yangzhou, then they can't blame themselves!
"Haha......"
Thinking of the high guard of Miaochu, he couldn't help but laugh wildly, but he didn't know that he behaved like this, especially after killing people, setting fire to the scene.
All kinds of behaviors like this have been seen by a few sneaky eyes......
