Chapter IX: Extorting Confessions by Heavy Punishment
Liu Yingsong was quickly stripped of his clothes, and two brocade guards carried a wooden bucket of boiling water and poured Liu Yingsong from the beginning to the feet. Liu Yingsong's skin turned red in an instant, and his face was also hideous and terrifying, if he hadn't been gagged, his wailing voice would not be inferior to Liu Wentai just now.
After pouring it seven times, Liu Yingsong's skin has already opened and the flesh is clear. His younger brother Liu Yingtong knelt in the corner without crying or screaming, Xu was too stimulated, and he was already stupid.
And Liu Wentai was in tears, and wanted to kowtow to Xu Xianchun, but unfortunately the two brocade guards behind him pinched his arm to death. He could only watch as this eldest son, who had made him extremely proud in the past, struggled under these cool officials.
He was extremely resentful of Xu Xianchun in his heart, but he no longer dared to anger him like before.
After washing, Jin Yiwei brought a long iron brush, the brush head was covered with steel needles, and directly brushed a piece of meat from Liu Yingsong's body. Liu Yingsong's bloody face was blurred, his blood vessels and veins bulged high, and his eyes were red as if bleeding, he stared at Xu Xianchun, and the resentment in his eyes was not concealed at all.
No parent can be indifferent to the suffering of their children, Liu Wentai is the same, he hates Xu Xianchun, and he also hates the emperor, why doesn't the emperor die faster? In this way, with the power of those men, his days will be more nourishing than they were before!
But he hated himself even more, hating why he didn't just crash to death at that time; Hate yourself for why the ghost wanted to kill the emperor at that time!
Liu Wentai no longer dared to look at his son's miserable shape, so he could only close his eyes.
Liu Yingsong's flesh and blood were combed off one by one, the whole person was blood-red, and the acupoints were also washed away by pain, and the desire to survive made him writhe and struggle.
Although Jinyiwei is notorious, not everyone is hard-hearted. Lu Jianxing and Jin Yichuan are also ordinary people, but they only feel that this person is pitiful and terrifying, and they really can't bear to look at them directly.
But Xu Xianchun is different, he can climb to this position, that is, by virtue of throwing Jiang Bin's good and bad things, his heart has already been tempered into steel.
He even laughed: "Hehe, Lord Liu, don't you dare to look at it?" It's okay, let go of Lord Liu, let Lord Liu listen. ”
Since someone did so, the screams reached Liu Wentai's ears, and he only felt that today was the end of his life's tears, and he couldn't cry anymore.
There was a sudden silence in the punishment room, and it turned out that Liu Yingsong stopped screaming, and his neck was loosely crooked to the side. The Jinyi guard who was in charge of the punishment stepped forward to take a look, and turned to Xu Xianchun to salute: "What's the matter, Liu Yingsong didn't resist. ”
Liu Wentai's eyes widened suddenly, his eldest son is gone?
Xu Xianchun waved his hand and said indifferently: "Take it to the mass grave." Pull that little one over. ”
Everyone was about to respond, when they saw Liu Wentai struggling violently. How can it be pulled to a mass grave? Their Liu family has an ancestral grave, and his son can't be a lonely ghost! Is Tong'er innocent? He's so small, he can't stand it!
Xu Xianchun was happy: "Let go of Lord Liu." ”
went to the gag thing, Liu Wentai crawled at Xu Xianchun's feet like a dog, and said in a hoarse voice: "I beg Lord Xu to be gracious, let Liu's family collect the corpse, Liu will recruit, all recruit." ”
Liu Wentai knew that the lives of the children in the family could not be saved, if he didn't recruit him, Xu Xianchun, who was killed by God, was afraid that he would torture and kill the Liu family one by one in front of his eyes. He was afraid, and now he only wants to give him a good time in the future, so that his suffering son can enter the ancestral grave and enjoy the incense in peace.
Since Liu Wentai has already spoken, there is naturally someone in charge to record the confession. Xu Xianchun crossed Erlang's legs and said, "Say it." ”
"At the end of last year, my nephew was eating wine in Banyuan Pavilion and had an argument with Yi Guogong's little son, and my nephew accidentally discounted the left leg of this little son. Yi Guogong's family came to look for our bad head, I couldn't, I had to ask for people everywhere, a friend helped me take Jiang Mian's line, Jiang Mian came forward as a guarantee, let me heal the little son, if it is no different from ordinary people in the future, this matter will be revealed. I can still guarantee it, and I should have done it then. Liu Wentai cautiously raised his eyes and looked at Xu Xianchun, holding back the sadness in his heart, and said with difficulty.
Xu Xianchun felt that something was wrong when he heard it, and mocked in his heart, this was obviously a game done by others, waiting for Liu Wentai to drill, and this idiot didn't realize it yet.
"After that, I had a lot of dealings with Jiang Mian, and I also visited his family in private. At the beginning of January, he asked me to check his wife's pulse on the grounds that his wife was ill, but in fact he bribed me with 60,000 taels of silver to do things for him and help him bribe other colleagues. Soon after, His Majesty returned to Beijing, and soon became seriously ill, and before I went to the leopard's room to check the pulse, Jiang Mian sent someone to tell us to cover up His Majesty's poisoning. But, my lord, I really didn't poison Your Majesty! In the end, Liu Wentai actually cried again.
Xu Xianchun snorted coldly and scolded: "Cover up for the person who poisoned, connect with the imperial doctor, and don't report it, you should die!"
He had already turned the river and the sea in his heart, and he had long expected that this matter would not be so simple, but he didn't expect to catch Jiang Mian, a big fish.
It's a pity that Liu Wentai is not the one who poisoned him, and he has less credit for it. However, if you rely on this confession to catch Jiang Mian and find out the person behind the scenes, it will be a wealth of the sky!
Xu Xianchun was excited in his heart, and said to the Jinyi guard who wrote the confession: "Let him sign and draw the pledge, hurry up." ”
After the man answered, he glanced at Liu Wentai's swollen fingers like his face, and was a little helpless, so he could only hastily press his handprint and hand over the confession to Xu Xianchun.
Xu Xianchun took out his confession, and said to Lu Jianxing: "You immediately go and inform Qin Zhan, who stayed in Beizhen Fusi, and ask him to bring people to surround Jiang Mian's house, and I can't act rashly before I arrive at Jiang's mansion." ”
left another sentence to the other Jinyi guards: "Take good care of Liu Wentai, don't let people die!" So he left in a hurry, and went to Xiyuan on horseback.
Although Jin Yiwei saw that the official was a senior level, Jiang Mian was the crown prince of the dynasty after all, and he was also the secretary of the household department, and he was a scholar of the palace, the matter was big, Jiang Bin was not there, and there was no one on his head, so he needed to return to Zhu Houzhao quickly in order to catch Jiang Mian with peace of mind.
-- Dividing line --
"Are you saying that in four days, the Forbidden City of the Ming Dynasty will become a good place for people to watch the excitement?" Jiang Yuyan teased Zhu Zaiyuan in the yellow sandalwood crib and stabbed Cao Zhengchun coldly.
Deep down, I was upset by the names of the two people, "Ximen Blowing Snow" and "Ye Gucheng", and it was an eventful time, but these two people were in a hurry to make trouble.
and in Ye Zhenzhen's memory, the so-called decisive battle is actually a conspiracy of Nanwangfu to collude with Ye Gucheng in a vain attempt to make the prince of Nanwang, who is the same as today's appearance, steal the sky.
Cao Zhengchun replied: "Niangniang is angry, the slave maid has asked Jinyiwei to arrest these Jianghu people who came to Beijing, and they must let them have no return!" ”
Jiang Yuyan smiled sarcastically: "Ordinary martial arts people are at their own disposal, but what about those two bold people who dare to use force in the Forbidden City?" ”
"This ......" Cao Zhengchun, who is full of white hair, is also a little difficult, if Liu Xi is not arrested, the two of them will not be left behind, but Liu Xi is now staying in the edict prison and half dead, although his Tiangang boy skills are invulnerable, but he can't please these two people. If he loses face in public, how do you want him to behave in front of those godsons and grandchildren.
"Decisive battle at the top of the Forbidden City? Hmph, for hundreds of years, the decisive battle place on the rivers and lakes has always been the top of Huashan, and when you come to the capital, there must be a cat in it! You go to find out who will set the location, and be sure to find out why. "Although it can't be said that it is the conspiracy of the king of the south, it is still okay to mention it.
"Slaves obey!" Cao Zhengchun responded.
"Well, these days to strengthen the guards in the palace and the leopard room, anyone who dares to approach the palace and the leopard room within ten steps without an edict will be killed!" After all, Zhu Houzhao does not live in the palace like in the book, and the Nanwang Mansion also knows it, but he still sets the decisive battle in the palace, and he must have set up the leopard room. Jiang Yuyan sneered in her heart, this prince of Nanwang had better not come, otherwise she wouldn't mind pinching him to death with her own hands!
