Chapter 160: Extorting Confessions by Torture
"Bang bang, be quiet, be quiet, .....!" The prince slapped the case wildly.
The crowd gradually quieted down.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, should you pass on the first person to witness Yousan?" Le Qing reminded from the side.
The prince glanced at Le Qing unhappily, and a strange smile rose at the corner of his mouth: "Heirloom." ”
You San was brought to the hall, his eyes touched the prince in a high position, and there was a trace of fear on his round face, but when he inadvertently saw Lin Xingyu in the crowd, his pupils immediately stood upright, and his eye sockets were obviously enlarged.
It can be seen that his fear of Lin Xingyu is better than that of the high-ranking prince.
You San went to the hall, the curvature of the corner of the prince's mouth froze obviously, for a long time, his eyes were like poisonous snakes, and he glanced at You San under the stage gloomily, and his eyebrows were raised: "Who is in the audience, report your name." ”
You San knelt on his knees, bowed his head, and trembled: "The villain's name is You San." ”
"You San, this palace asks you, you must tell everything you know, no matter how big or small, if there is half a lie, or a little concealment, this palace will behead you." The prince suppressed a flash of panic, and the joints of his hands in his wide sleeves turned white.
You San nodded tremblingly, saying that he didn't dare to hide anything.
"The villain in Kyoto once thought that people wrote letters on behalf of people to make a living, wrote more letters, and also practiced a skill to be able to imitate other people's handwriting in a fake way, one day, a noble man found the villain, gave the villain a lot of silver taels, and took some letters for the villain to copy, the villain's technology was appreciated by the noble, and dictated a letter, let the villain write down according to the handwriting of the copy, the villain listened to the content of the letter, he was unwilling to agree, but could not withstand the temptation of gold and silver and could not stand the threat of the noble, so he agreed to ......."
"Is there any proof of what you say?" The prince stared at You San, as if You San only had to say something that was not as good as he wanted, then He San's blood would be spattered on the spot.
As early as yesterday, You San ran to Yin Tianfu to surrender and confess his guilt, and he interrogated You San as soon as he received the news.
At that time, You San's eyes flashed and his words were vague, but he still heard it and didn't dare to go against him.
But he still planted people in the cell, and he was ready to finish Yusan that night.
You San died as soon as he died, and there was no evidence, so the case of the Ye family would become an unsolved case, and he would add fuel to the fire, and it would only be a matter of time before the Ye family raided the family and beheaded him.
Even if someone investigated the cause of You San's death, the final result was that he committed suicide in fear of sin.
I thought that what I did would be seamless, but what I never thought was that this You San was actually cheating to death.
"The villain is willing to copy the letter on the spot." You San acted according to Lin Xingyu's instructions without deviation.
In front of many people, even if the prince has murderous intentions towards You San, it is difficult to make a move, so he can only let things develop.
Soon, Le Qing ordered someone to take out a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone and hand it to You San.
"Le Shilang seems to be very positive about this matter." Regarding Le Qing's almost abnormal attitude, the prince looked sideways at Le Qing, who had a calm and calm face.
Although Le Qing is worried about the country and the people on weekdays, once there is a dispute between factions and henchmen, he is always towards the emperor.
This time, the prince thought that Le Qing had taken over the Ye family, but he was just going through the motions on behalf of the emperor and suppressing the anger of the people.
Unexpectedly, Le Qing was unusual, and he was very serious about the Ye family's case, and even had some meaning of maintaining favoritism.
Is this what the emperor meant?
All kinds of speculations spread infinitely in the prince's heart.
Le Qing replied like a Tai Chi: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is joking, since the ministers have taken over this matter, they naturally hope to find out about this matter and give General Ye justice." ”
Ye Shaojun saw Le Qing's attitude towards his Ye family, and he was also full of questions.
"Le Shilang is really a good official for the country and the people! It's no wonder that my father takes it so seriously. The prince held his emotions in his eyes and said tentatively.
Le Qing smiled lightly, although the smile was indifferent, but it was still as elegant as Lan Runze: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has praised it." ”
The prince couldn't get anything out of Le Qing's mouth, so he had no choice but to give up.
And You San in the audience quickly copied out a letter, and the content of the letter was exactly the same as the content of Ye Shaojun's collaboration with the enemy and betrayal of the country.
The people outside the hall who had long known about this were in an uproar and talked about it.
"You San, have you seen the appearance of the person who asked you to imitate General Ye's handwriting?" Le Qing asked gently.
You San nodded: "I know, the villain knows, that person is Sun Xin, the general of Longwei." ”
"Bang!"
The prince grabbed the teacup in his hand and smashed it at You San, and scolded loudly: "Boldly Diao Min, who are you instructed to slander the generals of the dynasty?" ”
You San couldn't dodge, and a long cut was cut on his forehead by the porcelain piece, and the blood immediately gurgled down, shocking.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince spares his life, what the villain said is true, and there is no half-truth!" You San didn't care about the blood on his face, and lay on the ground crying and kowtowing repeatedly.
The prince lifted his lips and sneered: "It seems that if you don't give a little bitterness, you won't tell the truth, come on, put on the splint." ”
"Ahh His Royal Highness the Crown Prince spares his life....! As soon as he heard that he was going to be punished, You San almost fainted in fright.
Le Qing frowned and immediately spoke to stop: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to torture to extract a confession, the minister thinks that he doesn't seem to be lying, as for which is true and which is false, let General Sun come and ask him to know." ”
The prince looked at Le Qing with a sinister eyebrow, and said with an unhappy face: "Le Shilang, is this palace the prince or are you the prince?" This palace needs you to point fingers on the side? ”
Le Qing's eyelids didn't move, and his voice was still soft and warm: "The minister doesn't dare, it's just that the minister was entrusted by the emperor with a heavy responsibility to assist His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in investigating this matter thoroughly, so I naturally hope that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can judge the case impartially." ”
"Bold Leqing, do you mean that if this palace uses torture on You San at this moment, it will not be an impartial judgment?" The prince asked.
Le Qing replied in two or two: "The minister is afraid, he has no such intention, it's just the emperor...." ”
"You don't use your father to pressure me, this palace has to torture this gang today." Before Le Qing finished speaking, he was interrupted by the prince's angry voice: "On the splint." ”
Lin Xingyu's eyes outside the hall dimmed, and he turned around and glanced at a few "own people" hiding in the crowd.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is unfair, and he wants to bend into a trick!"
"That's right! This is obviously a cover-up for General Sun. ”
"The crown prince defends General Sun so much, maybe everything General Sun did was instructed by the prince."
“.........。”
The crusade and rebellion in the crowd were all around, and even the more they talked about it, they directly convicted General Sun, who had not yet figured it out, and brought the prince with him by the way.
Lin Xingyu looked at the prince with a blue face and a flustered face, and couldn't help snickering: Sure enough, it's a straw bag, if it weren't for the powerful power of his mother's family and his son-in-law, how could he, a stupid, weak and incompetent man, ascend to the throne of the prince?
