Chapter Seventy-Six: Ling Chi's Punishment

Xiao Yiran glanced at him contemptuously, so far, her biological father has no trust in her, and her stepmother is fanning the flames on the side, what else does she care! It's better for everyone to tear everything apart and make a big fuss!

Emperor Rui An nodded, and said in a deep voice: "What Prime Minister Zuo said is that such evil servants are indeed innocent. ”

He will directly sentence Li Mazi now, after all, the emperor has spoken, is he still alive?

Hearing that he was going to be executed, Li Mazi's body suddenly trembled like Kangsai, and suddenly a hot current stayed from his trouser legs, and the hall was filled with a commotion for a moment.

When everyone saw it, Li Mazi was actually scared to pee! Immediately, Qi Qi covered his mouth and nose with his sleeves, and his eyebrows were full of disgust and contempt.

Even Emperor Rui An took a step back unhappily, frowning slightly: "Take him down first." ”

He originally wanted the chamberlain to help him change his clothes and then come over for interrogation, but Li Mazi thought that Emperor Rui'an was going to send someone down to cut off his head, so he hurriedly threw himself at Baili Zhan's feet, grabbed his trouser leg and said, "Your Highness, help!" I don't want to die yet! Your Highness, help me! ”

Bailizan retreated disgustingly, but was dragged by him. When people are facing death, their potential is endless, not to mention that Li Mazi is now bent on taking Baili Zan as his life-saving straw, where is he willing to let go of him.

Baili Chan couldn't pull his hand away, and his heart suddenly became angry: "Let go!" You let me go! ”

Seeing that the prince was so entangled, someone next to him immediately came up to pull Li Mazi, no matter how strong Li Mazi was, he couldn't stand the tearing and pulling of several people, and finally fluttered twice, but his hands were torn apart.

His eyes were cracking: "Your Highness! You've brought me here! You made me say that! ”

Hearing this, everyone was shocked, and they all looked at Li Mazi and Bailizhan in disbelief.

Baili Zan was also shocked: "You servant! What nonsense! Slandered this prince! Come on, shut his mouth! ”

Xiao Yiran narrowed his eyes: "Wait a minute! ”

The people who dragged Li Mazi were also complaining in their hearts at this time, someone ordered them this for a while, and someone ordered them that for a while, and they really didn't know which one to listen to, so they turned their eyes to Emperor Rui'an. No matter what you say, he is the biggest, and what he says is the most effective.

When Emperor Rui'an heard Li Mazi's words, some bad premonitions rose in his heart, he glanced at his fourth son suspiciously, and said in a deep voice: "Suppress him first!" ”

Whatever it is, the royal face is the most important. If something happens, of course he has to protect his son first.

Xiao Yiran's heart sank, this Rui An Emperor is going to seek personal gain! This Li Mazi is stayed, and the truth is about to be distorted. But she has no choice, the emperor has spoken, who will listen to her, the young lady of the Hou Mansion, isn't that deliberately against the emperor!

But at this moment, a warm voice sounded in the hall: "Wait! ”

Everyone followed the prestige, only to see Baili Wuchen slowly get up from his seat and say: "Brother Huang, this matter is full of suspicions, in order to prevent accidents, the sooner the trial is completed, the better." ”

Emperor Rui'an looked at the Nine Emperor Brother who stopped him with an uncertain expression, and said with a smile: "The Nine Emperor Brother is too careful, in the palace, how can any accident happen?" ”

Baili Wuchen smiled slightly: "This is not certain, if it is a mistake, how can Li San commit suicide if he can't think of it?" Isn't that death without proof? ”

Hearing this, the corners of everyone's mouths couldn't help twitching, this Nine Princes was really distracted by making excuses. Just look at this Li Mazi's cowardice, and I know that he is definitely not a person who will commit suicide!

Rui Andi's eyes couldn't help but sink: "How come?" I'll send someone to watch him. ”

Baili Wuchen chuckled twice: "Why bother so much? According to the opinion of the younger brother, it is better to finish the trial as soon as possible. First, I can return Miss Xiao San's innocence in front of everyone as soon as possible, and second, today is the birthday of the imperial sister-in-law, so I really don't have to waste too much time on such a trivial matter. ”

Her words can be said to speak to the hearts of the two women. First, Xiao Yiran, Xiao Yiran didn't expect that Baili Wuchen would believe her. And the second is the queen, today is her annual birthday, plus she has always been thrifty, and she usually doesn't like to do a lot of things, but this time she finally did it well, but she was mixed up by such a thing, how did this make her happy?

Murong Liang knew that her aunt was uncomfortable at this time, so she hurriedly stepped forward and patted her hand comfortingly, and then looked at Emperor Rui'an.

Emperor Rui'an also suddenly thought of this, he turned his head to look at Empress Murong, and was silent for a moment: "Then according to what the Nine Emperor Brothers said." After speaking, he helped Queen Murong to sit on the main seat together.

Seeing this, Baili Zhan's face turned pale for a moment. He looked at Emperor Rui'an, who was sitting high again and didn't want to care about anything, and then moved his gaze to Baili Wuchen, who turned the situation around with a single sentence, and his eyes darkened.

Baili Wuchen said: "Miss Xiao San, just ask now." ”

Hearing this, Xiao Yiran was slightly stunned, is this helping himself? And let her interrogate herself?

Seeing that her face was full of surprise, Baili Wuchen smiled slightly, and then sat back in the seat just now, and really handed over the initiative to Xiao Yiran.

Xiao Yiran lowered his eyes, and then said, "Li San, where did you get this talisman from, I remember that it has always been kept by Mrs. Wang." Now that it's in your hands, you have seen her. Is Mrs. Wang really dead? If she really died, where is the body now? Why didn't you report to the official when she died, but came to this banquet with the four princes? ”

Li Mazi had already collapsed when he heard that he was going to be executed, and at this time, all he was thinking about was that he was going to be beheaded, so how could he be in the mood to care about anything else. So he just collapsed on the ground, bowed his head and muttered, "I don't know, I don't know anything......"

Xiao Yiran frowned slightly, and said coldly: "Li San, you have to think clearly, there are different ways to die in this death." ”

Li Mazi looked up in a daze.

Xiao Yiran continued expressionlessly: "Some people are executed with a knife in the neck, and they go away without having time to feel any pain, while some people are different. ”

She suddenly laughed: "Have you heard of Ling Chi?" It is the punishment of cutting off the flesh of a person piece by piece, and this person will not die immediately, but will watch his flesh disappear little by little. I've also heard that this skilled jailer can cut each piece of meat very evenly, and the size and thickness are exactly the same, and the man can't die even if he wants to, until he is cut into a bone frame. ”

Before she finished speaking, many people with poor tolerance covered their mouths and retched.

They looked at Xiao Yiran in shock, as if they didn't believe that such a cruel punishment could come from the mouth of such a delicate little girl, and their faces did not change.

Only Baili Wuchen heard her words and didn't show any expression, but his eyes brightened more and more with her words. Looking at Xiao Yiran, who was calm and calm not far away, the interest in his eyes became more and more intense.

"Third sister, don't be kidding, where is this kind of punishment?" Xiao Yixian rubbed her arms and smiled reluctantly. Li Mazi was brought over by Baili Zhan, of course she didn't want him to spit out too many things that were not conducive to Baili Zhan, so seeing Xiao Yiran scaring Li Mazi, she couldn't help but speak.

Xiao Yiran said: "I'm not joking, if the eldest sister doesn't believe it, she will know as soon as she asks." As she spoke, she swept around: "I don't know if Lord Ge of Dali Temple is here?" ”

A muscular man stood up and said, "It's down there." ”

"Master Ge has been in Dali Temple for many years, and he has seen a lot of things, and he has been in contact with all the things that have been tried and judged cases, I don't know if there is something wrong with this Ling Chi's punishment just now?"

Ge Fengcheng was silent for a moment, nodded and said, "What Miss Xiao San said is true. ”

"Thank you, Lord Ge, for your answer." Xiao Yiran saluted him, and Ge Fengcheng sat down.

Turning his gaze to Li Mazi, who was frightened again, Xiao Yiran said coldly: "How is it?" Li San, aren't you still telling the truth? Do you really want to try this Ling Chi punishment? ”
