Chapter 61: Coerced Confessions
Zhao Yuru held the pearl and silently recited the four words of the phoenix's destiny. The meaning of the Yuchuan priest seems to mean that Lin Yufu will become a queen in the future?
But that's outrageous, isn't it? A woman in a green house, being a queen?
Zhao Yuru shook his head, wanting to throw this ridiculous idea out of his mind.
After taking a bath, she had just changed her clothes, and Yan Linjun's people came to invite her.
"Sect Chief Zhao, our prince asks you to go over and interrogate the prisoners together!"
"What else do you want me to do? You princes can do it yourself! Zhao Yuru didn't pay attention to it, just thinking that he would eat another basket of big crabs later!
"The prince said, you are here, so as to prove the fairness and justice of the result!"
The people outside the door haven't left yet, and it seems that Zhao Yuru has to go over.
She glanced at her, this Yan Linjun is really troublesome! It's fair and just, do you really think you're the master of the blue sky?
"Alright, I'll go later!" She said dissatisfied.
After tidying up her clothes, she walked out the door, only to find Lin Yufu sitting at the dining table and feasting!
"Hey! Didn't you already go to Yan Linjun first? โ
Lin Yufu raised his head, looked at the crab shells on the table, and said in a daze: "I'm going to find him, but the kitchen has just steamed a cage of crabs, and I thought that it would not be too late to eat one, so I ยทยทยทยทยทยท"
Zhao Yuru's face was pale, he was eating delicious food behind his back, and he had eaten it all!
"You won't be able to dance by then, and if you can't make money, I'm not done with you!" After speaking, she picked up Lin Yufu, and the two walked to the county government of Gwangju City together.
The county magistrate of Gwangju City sat tremblingly on top of the public court, glanced at Yan Linjun from time to time, swallowed his saliva, and did not dare to speak.
He is just a nine-grade sesame official, and Tu Lijun has always been in charge of their own affairs, and the well water does not interfere with the river water. Seeing that he could step down in three months, it turned out that so many things had come and so many high-powered people came!
"Lord Wang, that, do we still have to wait for Sect Chief Zhao?" He had been waiting for a long time, but he didn't dare to say anything.
"Of course, no matter how you say it, you have to have a three-way trial, which seems fair!"
"Yes!"
Because it was a trial of repeat offenders, the county government was not open, and the people couldn't see what was happening here, and the public court was full of Yan Linjun's people.
After a while, Zhao Yuru finally walked in with brisk steps. She was followed by Lin Yufu wearing a hood.
Yan Linjun raised his eyes and saw Lin Yufu and showed a smile.
"Yufu, come here!" He beckoned to Lin Yufu and motioned for Lin Yufu to come over to him.
"What did you do in the past!" Zhao Yuru grabbed Lin Yufu, glared at Yan Linjun and said, "Lord Wang, this is above the court, don't stare at the little lady!" โ
Facing Zhao Yuru's angry accusation, Yan Linjun just smiled faintly, then looked at the county order and said, "Lord Yao, you can summon the prisoner!" โ
"Yes!" Yao County Ling nodded and ordered someone to bring Tu Lijun up.
Because Tu Lijun has a lot of prestige in Gwangju City, he didn't suffer much in the past, and his eyes were still full of contempt and disdain, and he didn't take these people in his eyes at all.
Zhao Yuru scratched his head, looked at Yan Linjun and said, "Lord Wang, people are here, you hurry up and interrogate!" โ
"Lord Yao, this is your territory, and it should be interrogated by you!"
"Me?" The expression on Yao Xianling's face was about to cry, but Yan Linjun's order had already come down, and he couldn't object.
"Boldยทยทยทยทยทยท Bold maniac Tu Lijun! Why would you sabotage the pearling ceremony? Is there anyone behind it? โ
"Nope!" Tu Lijun said nonchalantly: "I didn't destroy the pearl diving ceremony!" โ
"Nonsense!" Yao Xian Ling shouted loudly and said: "There is no destruction, so why is the rope tied to the head of Zhao Zongjiao loosened?" Aren't you deliberately trying to kill yourself? โ
"Is there one?" He tilted his head and said, "Maybe Mr. Zhao is too fat, this rope can't stand the toss?" โ
After speaking, he showed a disdainful smile, and Zhao Yuru's face suddenly became ugly.
"Nonsense!" She stepped forward and pointed at Tu Lijun and said, "If you say anything more, I'll tear your mouth apart!" โ
"I'm also an official of the imperial court, don't touch me, Mr. Zhao, when the time comes, I say that you will torture to extract a confession, and let my father, mother, wife and children sue you in front of the saint, then you will be speechless!"
When Zhao Yuru heard this, she was even more angry, this was the first time she had seen such a scoundrel!
"Listen! Listen up! What kind of person is this! Zhao Yuru covered his heart and said, "You still rely on me?" โ
Yan Linjun listened, glanced at Zhao Yuru and said: "Sect Chief Zhao is a little restless, I don't think he has the guts!" It reminded me that your father, mother, wife and children are all in Gwangju, even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about them. You must know that this is a big crime, and if you don't get it right, you will be connected to the nine clans! โ
When Zhao Yuru heard this, he thought that Yan Linjun was really an old fox, and he detained Tu Lijun's key point in a few words!
Sure enough, Tu Lijun's face changed, but he still said disdainfully: "It doesn't matter, on Huangquan Road, the family is also neat, no loss!" โ
Zhao Yuru rolled her eyes, this is really a hard bone.
"Hard bones! It seems that some means are still necessary! Yan Linjun slowly stood up and made a look at Xiao Liu! Xiaoliu understood and ordered someone to be tortured!
"Oh, lord, this is above the court, and you must not use a big punishment!" Yao Xianling's face changed in fright, in the past few decades, he has hardly even used a torture instrument!
"Don't worry, Master Yao, you know about this matter, and it's good that Sect Chief Zhao knows!" He looked at Zhao Yuru and said: "The three of us have the same confession, no matter what Tu Lijun says at that time, he will bite back, and the saint will not believe it!" โ
When Tu Lijun heard this, he was really a little panicked!
Zhao Yuru then understood, yes, why is Yan Linjun so smart?
Tu Lijun shook his head and said, "Naive, can't everyone see the scars on my body?" Do you really think that you can't see the sacred? โ
Yan Linjun didn't speak, just handed Xiao Liu a look. Xiao Liu walked up to him, picked up a sharp knife and gestured and said, "Master Tu, do you know what this is?" โ
Tu Lijun glanced at it and did not speak.
"This kind of knife is the most suitable for cutting people's tongues! With a slight stroke, your tongue is gone, you can't speak, so who else will look at you? โ
"You dare!"
"Or, pour hot oil on you, stuff a fiery red charcoal fire, burn your throat, or make you speechless!" Xiao Liu smiled and said: "There are many ways to make you speechless, if you are willing, I can tell you slowly!" Pick one and I'll use it for you! โ
"Yan Linjun! Don't you dare! โ
"Since you have made up your mind not to tell who is behind the scenes, then this tongue is useless! Why should I not dare? He smiled coldly, and then motioned for Xiao Liu to make a move.
"Wait!" Zhao Yuru was also surprised, could it be that he really wanted to be tortured?
She can't see this bloody scene!
"Lord Wang, maybe there is another way, arrest his family, I don't believe he really doesn't care about them!"
"No need!" Yan Linjun said indifferently: "The punishment he suffered, I will repeat it to his family every time!" I'll see if it's his hard mouth, or his three-year-old child's life! โ
Zhao Yuru looked at Yan Linjun's eyes, and suddenly felt that his hair stood on end. That's not a warning, it's not a joke, it's a real thing, it's going to eat people's eyes!
She looked at Lin Yufu with some panic, she hadn't thought of this scene before she came. In the past, in order to be lively, she also went to the court to interrogate prisoners, which was nothing more than asking some questions, and she was convicted and beaten. These eerie torture instruments are not a joke when you look at them!
Lin Yufu had a cold face, she knew that Yan Linjun would come really!
In fact, she used to interrogate prisoners of war, and she would also use torture.
But Zhao Yuru's eyes obviously told herself that she didn't want to see this scene!
"My lord, what's wrong?" Lin Yufu asked softly.
"You knowingly asked! Let Yan Linjun stop moving! Or, wait until I'm gone! โ
"You will go to the battlefield in the future, such a scene cannot be avoided!" Lin Yufu said with a cold face: "Let's look at it!" โ
"What do you mean by looking?" Zhao Yuru still wanted to speak, but he heard Tu Lijun let out a muffled snort!
It turned out that someone had started to torture him!
Xiao Liu got on the clamp stick first, clamping his fingers and feet.
"Master Tu, this is for women, let's make an appetizer for you first! Take your time in the back! โ
After speaking, the executioner began to exert force, all ten of his fingers were pinched blood, and Zhao Yuru could even hear the sound of bones breaking!
"OMG!" She turned her head to look at Lin Yufu and said, "I have an upset stomach and want to go out!" โ
"Sect Chief Zhao!" Yan Linjun stopped Zhao Yuru and said, "It's not too late to go after the interrogation?" โ
"I can't take it anymore!"
When Yan Linjun heard this, he sighed and said, "Then hurry up, don't delay Mr. Zhao's head to go to the toilet!" โ
"Yes!"
"Wait!" Yan Linjun raised his hand and said, "Look at my memory, I forgot what I just said, bring his family up!" โ
Tu Lijun's eyes were already in pain, and when he heard that he had brought his family up, he was even more crazy and wanted to break free. But he was held down and couldn't move!
Soon, his parents, wife and children were brought up, Tu Lijun has two sons and a daughter, the youngest son is only three years old, he doesn't know what happened, he only knows how to cry!
"Give them all sticks!" Yan Linjun said expressionlessly.
They were gagged, all kowtowing and begging for mercy, but they were still put on the sticks one by one!
"Yan Linjun!" Tu Lijun shouted: "They don't know anything! You can either give it a good time! Why torture people like this? โ
Yan Linjun sneered and said, "I just like to torture people!" Torture! โ
At the sound of an order, those soldiers exerted force in their hands, and for a while, the shouts in the public court were endless!
Zhao Yuru couldn't stand it anymore, stepped forward and snatched the child from the soldier's hand, looked at Yan Linjun and said, "He's only three years old!" โ
"I know! But he has a father who wants to rebel! Yan Linjun said unwaveringly: "If you want to blame, you can only blame him for not being reincarnated!" Sect Leader Zhao, don't you shield criminals! โ
"I didn't shield the criminals, the child is innocent, if there is anything to rush to Master Tu! This kid, how can you bear it? โ
Lin Yufu frowned, and it was indeed too ruthless to attack the child!
"If something happens to you today, I think your ghost, the first one you won't let go, is this child!" Yan Linjun said expressionlessly: "Sect Leader Zhao, do you still want to hold him?" โ
Zhao Yuru still didn't let go, but he didn't expect the child in his arms to suddenly bite her, and the pain made her let go of her hand, and the child fell to the ground, crying.
"Hehe, I didn't expect that I could actually see the real Mr. Dongguo!" Yan Linjun mocked: "This is a white-eyed wolf, you saved him, he will kill you in the future!" โ
Zhao Yuru was speechless for a while, only to feel that those cries filled her ears and made her upset!
She looked at Lin Yufu like a plea for help, and now she only hoped that she could stand up and speak!
Lin Yufu saw Zhao Yuru's eyes asking for help, slowly stood up, thought for a while, walked in front of the child, and suddenly reached out and grabbed his neck!
Everyone was shocked, and Tu Lijun and his wife desperately wanted to rush forward to stop them, regardless of the pain in their bodies.
"Lin Yufu, what are you doing!" Zhao Yuru exclaimed in surprise and wanted to step forward to stop it, but the child was picked up by Lin Yufu and pressed against the pillar, and his little face was red!
"I'm just fulfilling Master Tu's wish and giving this child a happy time! Since the whole family is going to die, early death and late death, the difference is whether or not they will suffer! โ
At a young age, the child has no idea why these people want to hurt him, so he can only cry loudly.
This cry was terrible, and Zhao Yuru was about to go crazy when he heard it!
At this time, Tu Lijun's wife suddenly broke free from the restraints and stepped forward to grab someone with Lin Yufu, but was kicked to the ground by Lin Yufu.
"You will not escape death unless you ยทยทยทยทยทยท" Lin Yufu pinched the child and looked at Tu Lijun.
His wife knew what Zhao Yuru meant, so she stepped forward and kowtowed and said, "I said! I tell everything I know! Please, let the children go! โ
"Don't say it!" Tu Lijun shouted: "Do you think that if you say it, they will let you go?" โ
"Shut up!" His wife shouted angrily, "If it weren't for you, would our family have become like this?" It's all because of you, it's all because of you! โ
After speaking, she wiped her tears and said, "I don't know who is behind the scenes, but I know that he gave our family a gold medal in the shape of a camellia!" โ
Hearing this, Lin Yufu and Yan Linjun felt a pang in their hearts, and immediately understood everything!
Zhao Yuru saw Lin Yufu in a daze, and hurriedly stepped forward to snatch the child from her.
And Tu Lijun knew that it was too late to say anything, so he had to lie on the ground and cry bitterly!
"It's over! It's all over! He muttered to himself.
Yao Xian Ling had long been frightened by all this, and he asked tremblingly: "Lord Wang, do you want to continue to be punished?" โ
Yan Linjun shook his head, waved his hand and said, "Hold them all up and escort them back to Beijing!" โ
"Yes!" Yao Xianling breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly ordered people to do it.
Zhao Yuru looked at Lin Yufu's appearance and understood that she already had the answer in her heart.
"Who?" Zhao Yuru pulled her over and asked in a low voice, "Why are you and Yan Linjun like this?" โ
"Camellia, don't you feel familiar?"
"Camellias?" Zhao Yuru thought about it, how could she know what a camellia was?
"Wait!" Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, camellia?
She was busy looking for Lin Yufu, and sure enough, she found a camellia hairpin between her buns!
It was a gift from the king of Nan'an County!
"Is that it?"
Lin Yufu said weakly: "Among the nobles of Dayan, they also have their own family crests. Unlike the Northern Barbarians, who are all beasts as family crests, the family crests of our Dayan nobles are all flowers and plants! โ
Zhao Yuru was stunned, she understood that the Dayan royal family was a peony flower, and the king of Nan'an County was a camellia!
"So it was instructed by the king of Nan'an?" She looked at Yan Linjun and said, "Really? โ
Yan Linjun shook his head and said, "It's not sure yet!" Maybe someone deliberately misled us with camellias! โ
Zhao Yuru sat down and breathed a long sigh of relief. Then he glanced at Lin Yufu, thought for a while, and asked his doubts.
"If Tu Lijun doesn't recruit all the time, will you really strangle that kid?"
Yan Linjun also raised his head when he heard this. Lin Yufu's move was indeed beyond his expectations!
Lin Yufu looked at his hands and pretended to be relaxed: "Do you think my piano hand can strangle anyone?" โ
Zhao Yuru's face was not relaxed, she just saw Lin Yufu's expression, which was the same as Yan Linjun. She couldn't accept that her body would do such a thing!
"Now that it's over, let's go back!" Zhao Yuru stood up, ignored Lin Yufu, and walked out directly.
Lin Yufu stood there, wanting to stop Zhao Yuru, but she still held back.
"I didn't expect that Mr. Zhao was such a soft-hearted person!" Yan Linjun appeared behind Lin Yufu and whispered in her ear.
"It's just that you don't know her!" Lin Yufu was also in a bad mood, and she didn't want to continue to entangle with Yan Linjun.
"I didn't expect you to be such a ruthless woman!" Yan Linjun grabbed her shoulders and made her forcibly turn around to face herself!
"I really like you more and more!"
Lin Yufu broke away from his hand and said, "That's really thank you for the love!" โ
"King Nan'an, I like you very much, right?" Yan Linjun continued: "If I remember correctly, you are the canary he raised, and he gives you gold, silver, clothes and jewelry every month. Every time he comes to Beijing, he lives with you! โ
Lin Yufu frowned, she had heard of this before, but she didn't know what the relationship between Lin Yufu and the king of Nan'an County was!
"What do you mean, lord? Doubt me? โ
"That's not true, I got the news before, there is something wrong here in Gwangju, so I pretended to come here for pearl diving, just to lure out the people behind the scenes! Unexpectedly, it led to my imperial uncle, and even my woman will be implicated! โ
When Lin Yufu heard this, she broke free of Yan Linjun's hand and said, "I have nothing to do with the king of Nan'an County!" There are more people who come to Qinyunju to live happily, among them there are many Jiangyang thieves, corrupt officials and corrupt officials, do I have anything to do with them? The woman in the Qinglou is just giving money and laughing, don't give me your hat indiscriminately! โ
When Yan Linjun heard this, he showed a knowing smile.
"It seems, you admit, it's my woman?" He pinched Lin Yufu's chin and raised his eyebrows slightly.
