Jiang Ji checked it, put it in the brazier on the side, and after waiting for a while, the plane the size of fish scales burned red, he took it and walked to the military advisor, and introduced: "This is called fish scale branding." ”

"Rows and rows are branded on the body, neatly shaped like fish scales, hence the name."

It was so close that the military advisor could almost feel the heat of the soldering iron, and he unconsciously avoided it.

Gritted his teeth and said, "You are extorting a confession by torture." ”

"If you obediently say everything that needs to be said, I won't have to work so hard." Jiang Ji sighed and said: "Isn't it happy that the two compartments are relaxed?" ”

The net worth and life of the military advisor are all in the hands of King Wen'an, if he confesses now, then he really wants to go to Huangquan to find his relatives.

Looking at the approaching soldering iron, he gritted his teeth and said, "I was wronged!" ”

Jiang Ji nodded.

I only heard the sound of sizzling, and the smell of burnt meat lingered in the room.

The military advisor restrained his howl and shouted, "I was wronged! ”

Jiang Ji looked at him and said slowly: "This fish scale is branded, and the brand is small, so some people feel that they can hold it." ”

"But when you get a hundred and two hundred burns, you won't think so."

As soon as the blind man heard about one or two hundred times, he hurriedly took out a pill from the medicine box and stuffed it into the mouth of the military advisor.

....

During dinner, Jiang Lingran didn't see Jiang Ji return home, sent someone to ask, and was told to stay in the forbidden army barracks.

Jiang Lingran frowned after hearing this, guessing that the interrogation of the military advisor and others did not go well.

When Yan Qi came, Jiang Lingran told him about it.

Yan Qi sat under the kang near the window, watching her make clothes for Yan Junchang, and said, "You have to believe your brother, he is not so easy to deal with." ”

Jiang Lingran tasted this, squinted his eyes and said, "Are you praising him?" Or scold him? ”

Yan Qi smiled: "How dare you scold? Compliment, of course! ”

Jiang Ling glanced at him, picked a goose yellow piece from the dustpan and was about to sew it on, but he heard Yan Qi say: "It looks better to use that sea blue one." ”

Jiang Lingran looked at the sea-blue rags in the dustpan when he heard this, picked up the two and compared, it was indeed better to be sea-blue.

Yan Qi thought about the affairs of Ruzhou, frowned and said, "Before this, the prince didn't do anything?" ”

Jiang Lingran shook his head: "I don't know." After speaking, he paused, looked up at him and said, "I really don't know, after the prince took over, my brother and I interfered very little." ”

Yan Qi laughed when he saw this: "I believe you, why do you explain so solemnly?" ”

Jiang Lingran glanced at him, lowered his eyes with a little weakness and muttered, "I won't hide it from you after I say it." ”

Yan Qi smiled even more cheerfully.

Leaning on the pillow, he said with a smile: "I don't know how the prince's knees are kneeling?" ”

Jiang Lingran said helplessly: "The prince knows that you are so gloating, and he wants to clean you up." ”

Yan Qi snorted and said, "I haven't settled accounts with him yet!" ”

Of course, Jiang Lingran knew what he was talking about, swallowed his saliva, and was speechless.

The next day, Yan Qi entered the palace and went out of the palace to see the prince.

The prince said: "... He once sent a message to Wu Dehou, asking him to find the wife and children of the military advisor, who were on their way to Beijing, but whether they could arrive safely was another matter. ”

Yan Qi smiled when he heard this: "It's a capable person, who can snatch people back from King Wen'an's hands." ”

When the prince heard this, he glanced at him, and wondered if he still minded the events of the year.

Yan Qi didn't say anything after saying this, looked at his knees and said, "How?" ”

The prince rubbed his knees, shook his head and said, "It's okay." ”

Yan Qi nodded noncommittally, and asked again, "Do you need my help?" ”

The prince thought that he and King Rui were not dealing with him, King Rui was working hard, and if he got involved, he would definitely not be able to live in peace.

Shaking his head, he said, "Not for the time being." ”

Yan Qi nodded again, stared at the candles on the table for a while, and said, "What means did King Wen'an use to punish traitors, Wu Dehou should know, right?" ”

The prince was stunned and looked at him sharply.

Yan Qi retracted his gaze, looked back at him, and chuckled, "Blood feuds are far more crazy than favors. ”

The prince paused for a while, and then smiled: "Go back quickly." ”

Yan Qi got up and left.

Since King Rui went to see Xia Yun, he has accelerated his actions, and he has become more and more concerned about Meng Zhipei's case.

Wen Huai came back from outside the mansion and reported to the study: "Several remote side branches heard the news of Meng Zhipei's death and rushed to the capital, and they are crying outside the Jingzhao Mansion at this time. ”

King Rui sneered and sneered: "What are you crying about? Crying silver is the real thing. ”

Wen Huai nodded in agreement: "Your Highness is smart." ”

"Although they are all surnamed Meng, the genealogy has long been separated, but Meng Zhipei has no children under his knees, and there are no close relatives in the family to survive, and these distant relatives can also get involved."

"Now they are all thinking about how to pass their children under Meng Zhipei's name and take advantage of them."

King Rui scolded disdainfully: "A bunch of fools. ”

"This kind of thing can be done with their mouths?"

Saying what he thought, there was a little more coldness on his face: "Even if it is for Yan Qi, my father will never let the plaque of the Pingsu Marquis Mansion hang up in the capital again!" ”

"They want to take advantage of the next life."

Wen Huai said: "That's right. He said and said: "But there is nothing left in the account of the Pingsu Marquis Mansion, listening to Yunxi's testimony, the property was secretly bought by the little guy named Wang Lu." ”

King Rui didn't care how much money Meng Zhipei had behind him.

He was quite interested in Meng Zhipei's group of foolish distant relatives.

"How's Yunxi doing over there?"

Wen Huai said: "I didn't dare to do it at first, but I asked her to find her, and she agreed." ”

King Rui nodded: "When Yunxi's side is gaining momentum, you immediately find someone to tell the news to those fools." ”

said that he seemed to have expected the wonderful scene of that day, and said with a smile: "It's been stuffy in the house for so long, it's time for me to relax." ”

On the side of the forbidden army barracks, the military advisor insisted on not letting go, but asked a lot of news from the mouths of the group of maids in the prince's mansion.

On this day, Jiang Ji brought a bag of things to the military advisor.

The burden was scattered, and there were two bloody jade pendants in it, as well as a few palm-length iron nails, and the nails were stained with red and white things.

The moment the burden was dispersed, the whole military advisor was stunned.

His gaze lingered on the jade pendant for a moment, and then he looked at the skull nail, which was long enough to penetrate the entire skull.

Looking at Rui's sharp tip, his head hurt suddenly, his heart also cramped, and he blinked vigorously to support his eyes.

It took him a while before he reached out and took a nail from his baggage.

The cerebral plasma blood on the nail suddenly stuck to his hand, and he looked at it in a trance for a while, bent over and vomited, trembling uncontrollably.

Jiang Ji glanced at the forbidden army on the side.

The forbidden army who was watched hurriedly stepped forward and took the skull nail from the hand of the military advisor to prevent him from committing suicide.

Jiang Ji didn't say anything, turned around and left.

Behind him was the heart-rending howl of the military advisor.
