Hu Chao said with a cruel smile: "Everyone in the world knows that it was the cool official Qiu Shenqian who forced the prince to death, Qiu Shenqian is dead, what does it have to do with me?" ”

Shen Xingwen looked at him, such an outlaw, after knowing that he couldn't escape, he desperately began to bite and bite, how could he confess easily.

Shen Xingwen snorted in his mouth, and he leaned down: "God knows, no one knows what you think you are doing?" ”

Hu Chao's eyes were cold, he was over forty years old, and in the past few years he had been hiding in Tibet, his temples were already full of wrinkles, and he looked very terrifying now.

Shen Xingwen sat opposite him, with fine skin and tender meat, and the comparison between the two was like a dying old woman and a white-faced son.

This is where Hu Chao's contempt comes from.

However, he also underestimated Shen Sicheng, and Shen Gongzi has never been easy to get along with.

Shen Xingwen beckoned, and the official behind him put a volume of the case into his hand, and Shen Xingwen said slowly: "We handle cases in Dali Temple, paying attention to motives, processes, and evidence. We never wronged anyone, we are the same

Let's start with motivation, how about it? “

Hu Chao stared at Shen Xingwen, "Lie to me? “

Shen Xingwen sneered: "You don't even have the value of being cheated." ”

Destroy self-esteem first, and then try to follow.

Hu Chao could see that he looked at Shen Xingwen with great hatred. Shen Xingwen was unmoved, he knew that this young man was not simple.

"When the Queen of Heaven was in power, she always believed in warlocks, but it gave you a chance to be a third-rate liar."

Shen Xingwen described Hu Chao as a charlatan, obviously in his heart, he looked down on Hu Chao extremely much.

Hu Chao's face was gloomy, even if he was hiding in Tibet these days, he was once admired by everyone, and many people didn't even dare to say anything in front of him.

What he didn't know was that Shen Xingwen's biological mother was because when she gave birth to him, she was said by a Taoist priest to bring the family to an ominous person, and their mother and daughter have suffered a lot of cold eyes over the years, Shen Xingwen studied hard to gain fame, so that his mother could have a place in the family, but God did not give them this opportunity.

Shen Xingwen stared at Hu Chao coldly: "You warlocks, you always think."

With one or two sentences, you can influence the situation. At the beginning, the Ming Chongyan beside the Queen of Heaven was also the same, saying that the prince was unbearable to inherit, and let the prince suffer injustice, this is all you warlocks who are untrustworthy and intend to play with the government. Therefore, Ming Chongyan is also innocent. ”

Not long after Ming Chongyan said this, the news of his violent death did come out.

Hu Chao's eyes were fierce: "Master Mingxiang is a celestial, you mortals... Afraid of peeping into the heavens, he stupidly attacked the Ming Xiangshi. ”

Shen Xingwen said coldly: "Ming Chongyan has done a lot of injustice, I think, he has done too much evil, and he has been counterattacked." ”

Hu Chao rushed out: "The former prince is retribution, he killed the Ming Xiangshi, and he can't live himself..."

Suddenly, Hu Chao realized something and closed his mouth tightly.

Shen Xingwen looked at him coldly: "Speaking of which, you united with Qiu Shenyun and others to frame the former prince, it turned out to be to avenge Ming Chongyan?" ”

The motivation came out like this.

Hu Chao stared at Shen Xingwen: "I want to see Your Majesty, you have no right to interrogate me." ”

Shen Xingwen pointed behind him and said, "You take a good look around,

This is the prison of Dali Temple, do you think you have to go here? ”

Hu Chao glared at Shen Xingwen.

"You... A concubine of the Shen family thought that he could attach himself to Dali Temple, and the snake and mouse would never become a dragon. ”

The temperature in the prison plummeted a few degrees, and the official closest to Shen Xingwen glanced at him in horror. The hand in Shen Xingwen's sleeve was clutched to reveal the distinct bone joints, and almost this hand touched the bridge of Hu Chao's nose.

Hu Chao suddenly smiled: "Don't you look down on warlocks, warlocks can see through your old bottom." Know that you are the real dragon and phoenix, or... Just earthworms in the mud. ”

Shen Xingwen stared at him, and suddenly smiled: "Have you seen yourself, can you get out of the prison of Dali Temple alive?" ”

Hu Chao originally wanted to force Shen Xingwen to be angry, but the other party's city government was far beyond what he thought.

Shen Xingwen said: "Now tell me how you separated the queen of heaven and the former prince, and you can also confess... Your accomplices. Confessing the eternal truth of leniency, Shen Xingwen stared at Hu Chao's face, these warlocks were for their own selfish desires

, The person who killed was not the prince, it should be said that even the prince dared to assassinate, who else would they avoid, if the queen of heaven was still in the regent, would Hu Chao be another Ming Chongyan now.

It's a pity that there is no such assumption, maybe Hu Chao is also doing this idea in his heart, but what can't be changed is the fact that he is now a prisoner.

Hu Chao's face was full of disgust and fear, which made him even more terrifying.

——

"How did the adults come up with Ming Chongyan?" Jing Wan'er blinked at Pei Tan, even though she had been looking for Hu Chao, she never thought that Hu Chao had something to do behind her.

Pei Tan said: "Although these warlocks have won the hearts of the queen of heaven, in the eyes of the ministers at that time, Ming Chongyan and his group of people have always been just a warlock, so no one has really befriended this group of warlocks. “

Jing Wan'er's eyes moved: "But someone is an exception?" “

Pei Tan slowly spoke: "Zong Chuke was demoted at that time, and he has been trying to find a way to meet the queen of heaven, at that time, Ming Chongyan, who was deeply favored by the queen of heaven, became an important person he befriended, in fact, it was true that not long after, Zong Chuke was reinstated, and what I doubt the most is that after Ming Chongyan died, Zong Chuke recommended Hu Chao to the queen of heaven. “

Hu Chao also quickly won the appreciation of the queen of heaven, but there were so many warlocks at that time, why did Zong Chuke recommend Hu Chao, and why did Hu Chao happen to be loved by the queen.

Jing Wan'er muttered, "Oh my God, these warlocks..."

It seems that in the history books, no matter what kind of wise holy lord he is, in the end, he will be involved with an inexplicable warlock.

It's just why Zong Chuke didn't flee Chang'an after the queen of heaven lost power, why didn't he directly kill Hu Chao at that time.

"I guess that Zong Chuke has a secret in Hu Chao's hands, so although he has the heart to kill him, he doesn't dare to do it, and only traps Hu Chao to death in Chang'an, and neither of them can benefit."

So this is the reason why Hu Chao must be caught secretly and interrogated no matter what, because if you can know the secret of Hu Chao, it will be of great help to Dali Temple.

Jing Wan'er looked at Pei Tan and bit her lip.

However, it also shows that once the news of Hu Chao is caught and leaked, Zong Chuke will kill Hu Chao by any means.

Zong Chuke and people like Hu Chao, they killed too many people, even Jing Wan'er wanted to avenge her father for killing Hu Chao, and others thought

The people who died in this Datang don't know how many.

Jing Wan'er suddenly had an idea: "Hu Chao must have thought that if he was killed by Zong Chuke, would the things he knew be buried forever?" “

Pei Tan's eyes were deep: "You mean, it's possible that he left his hands behind and hid the secret somewhere?" “

Jing Wan'er and Pei Tan looked at each other: "If I were Hu Chao, I could hide in Chang'an for so many years, how could I not even find a way back?" “

The two seemed to understand something in an instant.

In prison, Shen Xingwen stared at Hu Chao while drinking freshly brewed tea: "If you think about it, say it quickly." My patience is limited. “

Hu Chao stared at Shen Xingwen and said, "Do you dare to kill me?" “

Shen Xingwen put the teacup in the hand of the person next to him, and walked from the chair to Hu Chao: "Your life is not valuable, but the things on your body are more valuable than your life." “

Hu Chao glared at Shen Xingwen, "You won't get anything." “

Shen Xingwen nodded, and ordered left and right: "Make a bed outside the cell, and I'll rest here tonight." Find a rope to hang Hu Chao up, every half hour

Tatsu gave him ten lashes and let him sober up tonight. “

The official did not dare to speak, and the other had already brought the rope. They may not have learned about them until now.

Shen Xingwen sat comfortably on the made bed, "Go to Tianxianglou and order a duck and send it here." “

There is food and sleep, it depends on who is more sad.

Hu Chao said fiercely: "Although the Queen of Heaven is ignoring the government now, she is still in Daming Palace. You Dali Temple dare to detain me privately, even if I tell the truth, what do you dare to do to me? ”

Shen Xingwen's face was cold, he stared at Hu Chao, and only said after a while: "There is a sentence that you are right, the queen of heaven now... Ignore the government. Just by what you just said, I can kill you, Hu Chao, do you dare to disrespect today's saints? ”

Hu Chao's expression was distorted.

Shen Xingwen said: "When I arrested you yesterday, I seemed to tell you that there is only one Tang Dynasty emperor in this world, and the queen you keep saying can't save you." ”

Hu Chao was hung in the middle of the cell, and he looked at Shen Xingwen, that kind of resentment can infect other people.

After Shen Xingwen signaled, the official began to whip Hu Chao.

"This whip is soaked in medicinal solution, and there will be no red marks on people's flesh and skin, rest assured, our Dali Temple will not casually torture prisoners to extract confessions."

Shen Xingwen said this leisurely, looking at Hu Chao's trembling expression.

Jing Wan'er looked at the sky outside, then looked at Pei Tan, and said thoughtfully: "Shen Sicheng once begged your lord not to go to prison during his interrogation of Hu Chao. Maybe he didn't want adults to see him interrogating prisoners, but... Aren't adults worried at all? ”

Shen Xingwen now represents Dali Temple, if he really goes too far, he will naturally affect Pei Tan.

But Pei Tan obviously knew what Shen Xingwen was doing, but he didn't show any reaction. This is not like Pei Siqing, who has always paid attention to the reputation of Dali Temple.

Pei Tan saw that Jing Wan'er had been looking at him, so he had to turn his face, and after a while, "When it's an extraordinary time, you should do extraordinary things." What's more, I should also understand the truth of employing people. ”

This shows that he will have full trust in Shen Xingwen, and now is the very time for him to say it.

Jing Wan'er looked at Pei Tan's gaze with a slightly subtle look, as if she had discovered this

The other side of a gentleman.

Pei Tan rolled his eyes and hid his uneasiness, "It's not early, you can go and rest." ”
