Chapter 44: Bloody Rain
When Yan Qin opened his eyes for the first time, he thought that he was in a dream, but after waking up, he thought that it was the assassin doctor concubine who had entered the Shilang Mansion: Evil Emperor, see you in the cave!. It's just that the clothes on those people are familiar to Yan Yue, they are the costumes of the Imperial Forest Army of the Imperial Palace. When witnessing those Imperial Forest Army tying up Yang Zhifang, and witnessing those people turning the bedroom upside down, Yan Qin realized that he had been raided! The General's Mansion once experienced a scene of raiding the house, which had already been deeply engraved in Yan Qin's heart, but he didn't expect that this scene would also be staged in the Shilang Mansion.
"Xianggong...... Did you do something wrong? Have you been falsely accused? …… Yan Qin asked the tied up Yang in a trembling voice. The attack in the middle of the night came so suddenly that Yang Zhifang was a little caught off guard, and at this time, the expression on his face regained his calm from the initial shock, and he just let those royal forest soldiers search in the mansion without saying a word.
"Who sent you? Are you looking for the wrong door? My father-in-law is Yang Zhifang, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and my father is General Yan Wenzhong, you must be mistaken. Yang Zhifang didn't answer Yan Qin's question, Yan Qin could only shout at those Imperial Forest Army. At first, no one paid attention to Yan Qin's shouting, but then they were probably annoyed by Yan Qin's yelling, and after a figure flashed in front of Yan Qin's eyes, Yan Qin couldn't make any sound anymore, and was actually clicked dumb.
Yan Qin was stunned, only anxious that his heart was on fire, and his brain was dull for a while. Yan Qin couldn't figure out what was going on, Xianggong Yang Zhifang had always been quite capable and appreciated by the emperor in the court, and his father Yan Wenzhong was one of the rare generals in the court, how could he suddenly provoke the emperor to raid his house!
Fear flooded Yan Qin's whole body like a tide, and it wasn't until the Imperial Forest Army turned the Shilang Mansion upside down that he escorted people out of the mansion and into the prison car. The firelight illuminated the inside and outside of Shilang's Mansion, and Yan Qin clearly saw that there were more than ten prison cars parked outside Shilang's Mansion, and all the people in Shilang's Mansion did not escape. What's even more terrifying is that the surrounding area of the Shilang Mansion is all surrounded by the Imperial Forest Army, from the Imperial Forest Army surrounding the Shilang Mansion to the detention of the people in the prison, there were as many as three or four hours during this period, but it did not alarm the people around the Shilang Mansion, this action is more terrible than the original general's mansion raid.
Yan Qin was already trembling, and his eyes for help were fixed on his father-in-law Yang Zhifang, but since those people were tied up, he was probably stunned by this sudden situation. Until the two of them were escorted out of the cell and locked in the cell, which was surrounded by thick stone walls, he still didn't notice Yan Qin's frightened gaze, let alone give Yan Qin a hint of comfort.
The faint hoarse cursing and groaning that came to my ears. Moaning, wailing, the air was filled with a thick smell of blood, mixed with the disgusting musty smell of ** that had not seen the sun for a long time, Yan Qin's heart became even more panicked. I don't know when Yang Zhifang has unconsciously become Yan Qin's dependence. Although he has a chubby face, small eyes, and a short nose, even his figure is only bloated and not strong, but in Yan Qin's eyes, he has become so amiable. Although sometimes he would stay in the study day by day and not come out, although sometimes he always seemed to have a mind, although faintly Yan Qin felt that Yang Zhifang seemed to have something to hide from him...... But he is his own man, and he is also his only woman, which makes Yan Qin extremely satisfied.
But in one night, the sky fell! Overnight, all the masters and minions of the Yang Mansion were put in prison. The important people in the mansion were locked up in a single room alone, and these important people were the squire lord Yang Zhifang, the squire's wife Yan Qin, the head of the squire mansion, the scholar of Yang Shilang, the girl who waited closely, and several porters of the squire mansion.
The scholar was the first to be brought out, the book was less than double ten in childhood, and he was silent on weekdays, but he was very clever when he encountered trouble. Yan Qin didn't understand what to interrogate, could it be that his father-in-law was also framed as a collaborator and treason like his father did back then? When the figure of the scholar was about to leave the prison, Yan Qin was imprisoned in the prison and the acupuncture point was unraveled, and at this time, he shouted anxiously at the back of the scholar: "Chun'er, your family is loyal to the emperor, and the official is innocent, don't forget to make it clear to the chief judge." ”
The wait was a suffocating silence, as if every minute was spent in torment. The little scholar came back in the time of the two pillars of incense, but he was no longer the delicate and handsome little scholar, but became a bloody prisoner. Yan Qin's hands were trembling, and his heart was also trembling, and he wanted to ask what the chief judge of the Chun'er scholar had asked, but the little scholar had already fallen unconscious: The evil emperor, see you in the cave!.
Then there was the head of the Shilang Mansion, who was exactly the same as the little scholar who went out standing and lying down. Then there is the gatehouse of the Shilang Mansion, and the girl who waits for her is exactly the same situation, just when Yan Qin thought that the next one would be herself, Yan Qin was ready to avenge her husband and was ready to be tortured, but the cell head opened the door of Yang Zhifang.
Yan Qin's panic turned into worry again, and he rushed to the prison door in a hurry, crying: "Xianggong, you have to be careful, say whatever you ask, don't hold on to it, if you have the opportunity, inform your father, after all, my father is a general, and he will find a way to help you......"
Yan Qin said incoherently, but Yang Zhifang never looked at Yan Qin, he walked slowly under the leadership of the cell boss, walking slowly, his steps were heavy and slow, but step by step seemed to step into Yan Qin's heart. That step brought Yan Qin even deeper fear, as if he had never looked back.
No, Yang Zhifang turned around, just before he was about to leave the door of the cell. His eyes stayed on Yan Qin's body so inexplicably, for a long, long time, just when Yan Qin thought he would say something, he turned his head and left again. His eyes were so unfamiliar, that Yan Qin pondered for a long time and didn't think clearly what the glance he left meant?
There was a strong smell of blood in the torture chamber, and the smell of burnt flesh mixed in with it, and the smell of it made people shudder. As far as the eye can see, there are all kinds of torture instruments, large and small, including whipping, stone pressing, water irrigation, shackles, fire branding, and so on, but these torture instruments have a common feature, and the torture instruments are stained with a thick blood red, as if this torture instrument was still on a person not long ago.
Yang Zhifang stood there, but for some reason a smile appeared on the corner of his lips when he should have been panicked. It's like laughing at others, as if you're laughing at yourself, and even more like laughing at life...... The laughter made everyone in the torture chamber a little uneasy. Then Yang Zhifang opened his mouth lightly and said, "Don't ask, let the emperor come up." ”
As soon as Yang Zhifang's voice fell, a voice sounded in the room: "Of course I will come to see what the descendants of Tianhong Kingdom will look like." When I see me, I wonder if Lord Squire will be disappointed? "Tianhong Kingdom, maybe only the elderly can still remember that little country. About a hundred years ago, the Tianhong Kingdom perished in the battle with the Darong Dynasty, and several cities of the Tianhong Kingdom were all renamed, which is the current marginal city capital of the Darong Dynasty, Fucheng and Rongcheng.
When Yan Yue said about the Guzhong Organization, Murong Yan was also confused at first, but when Yan Yue mentioned that the little master of the Guzhong Organization was named Yang Fuhong, she suddenly remembered the small country a hundred years ago. And the first thing Murong Yan did after returning to the dynasty was to transfer the files of all the ministers of the court, among which Yang Zhifang's background was the most suspicious. Yang Zhifang has no father, no mother, no wife (his wife Yan Qin was rewarded by the emperor after he was appointed as a waiter), no children, and no relatives such as uncles. And his use is because of two things that made him famous, that is, the so-called kneeling can extinguish the fire, and the tiger will cross over, the most certain thing for Murong Yan is that among the people who escorted Yan Yue to marry to Cangmu Country back then, there was Yang Zhifang, and the master said by the Guzhong organization should be Yang Zhifang in Rongcheng.
"The emperor really had a big fate, and he actually escaped back, which is really disappointing." Yang Zhifang said slowly with a smile. From the siege of Yang Zhifang of the Shilang Mansion by the Imperial Forest Army, it was known that the matter had been revealed, but I didn't know what else this Murong Yan knew about the Guzhong Organization.
"Who are your accomplices? So where are the remnants of the valley? How did you get in touch with those organizations in the valley? Did you do the poisoning of the prince? Explain it well, and I will save you from the pain of flesh and skin! Murong Yan was furious. The previous interrogation of Yang Zhifang only revealed one fact, whether it was the scholar in the Shilang Mansion, the chief manager, or the porter, all of them were recruited by Yang Zhifang when he went to Darong City, and he couldn't provide any information about Yang Zhifang at all. This made Murong Yan even more strange, how did Yang Zhifang give those orders? Is he fighting alone in this Darong City? How is this possible?
Yang Zhifang spoke slowly, as he did when he returned to the emperor in the future: "The emperor might as well use all these torture tools, I just want to taste the pain that my ancestors have suffered." "A hundred years of hatred, how can coercive punishment make Yang Zhifang surrender! Yang Zhifang saw that the anger on Murong Yan's face was getting stronger and stronger, and then the whip shadow flew in front of him, and there was a tearing pain in his shoulder. Is it just flogging? Probably more than that. Yang Zhifang's eyes flashed with the red-hot iron branding, and when he saw the iron brand imprinted on his chest, Yang Zhifang let out a miserable scream and fainted.
When Yan Qin was brought into the execution chamber, Yang Zhifang was recognizable except for one face, but the rest of his body was drenched in blood, and his body was incomplete. A guard was pouring a bucket of water on him. Such a tragic scene, just by taking a look, Yan Qin was already unstable and lost his voice in pain.
"I can't imagine that Qin'er has a deep affection for your husband." A cold but very familiar voice sounded in the torture room, and Yan Qin noticed that there was another person in the torture room that could not be ignored - the emperor. If in the past, even if the emperor was standing in the crowd, Yan Qin could feel that the aura was different from Cong, but today, he was paying attention to his father-in-law, Yan Qin didn't notice that the emperor was also among the people who were interrogated.
"Your Majesty, the concubine is wronged, and the prince is loyal to the emperor, please let the emperor know. Please be gracious! Yan Qin cried and knelt down in front of the emperor.
"If you want to tell me that you are wronged, then think about how strange you behave when you are fair? You must know that your father-in-law has committed the crime of punishing the nine clans, and you and your father and mother will become beheadings, have you ever wondered why he didn't let you have an heir? Have you ever thought of all this, he had already premeditated..............." Murong Yan's words were like five thunders again, Yan Qin was paralyzed on the ground, unable to speak for a long time
