The harem of the Darong Dynasty was in chaos, because the prince was poisoned, the four noble concubines were demoted to Shuyuan, all the beauties in the harem were expelled from the palace, and Wang Guifei was in charge of the harem alone. And the court is also solemn, the Ministry of Rites Yang Zhifang has not been to the court for three consecutive days, all the staff of the Lang Mansion are in prison, and the officials. The staff guessed that it must be because of the poisoning of the prince. At this time, he is a good official with Yang Shilang on weekdays. The staff were all frightened, for fear that Yang Shilang's matter would affect them.

And this is indeed the case, all the officials who are usually close to Yang Shilang. The emperor summoned them alone, and Taifu Rong Shengren was the last minister summoned by the emperor.

Murong Yan suspected that Yang Zhifang had an accomplice in the Darong court, how many accomplices were there, and who could it be? This question has become a thorn in Murong Yan's heart. At the beginning, Yang Zhifang was able to enter the Darong court because of the recommendation of Taifu Rong Shengren, of course, this article alone does not mean that Rong Shengren is Yang Zhifang's accomplice. There is another reason that can make Murong Yan suspect Rong Shengren, that is, Rong Shengren and this Yang Zhifang look a little similar, the two are roughly the same figure, and their eyes are small, Murong Yan suspects that this Yang Zhifang and Rong Shengren are related. Although it was only a suspicion, even if it was the smallest suspicion, Murong Yan would not give up.

"Lord Taifu, today I invite Lord Taifu and his ministers to interrogate Yang Zhifang together." Murong Yan sat on the dragon chair and stared at Rong Shengren with burning eyes.

"Obey." Master Taifu's face did not change at all, and he did not ask another word that should not be asked. Murong Yan didn't explain in detail, but just took Master Taifu and went directly to that prison. The waiter of the Criminal Department was already waiting outside the prison, and when he saw the emperor, he hurriedly knelt down, but Murong Yan didn't even want to say a word of "no courtesy", and his footsteps directly crossed the waiter of the Criminal Department and walked towards the prison.

Yang Zhifang was dragged to the place of the torture chamber by the prison guards, his face was so swollen that he could no longer find his original appearance, his legs had been completely broken, his two arms were so rotten from his hands to his shoulders that he could no longer see the appearance of his arms, and the most terrifying thing about his chest was that there was a deep black hole, which was shocking to look at. Dragged from prison to this torture cell, he never opened his eyes. I don't know if I was in a coma, or if I was so weak that I didn't even have the strength to open my eyes.

The guards had intended to hang him from a stake in the cell, but as soon as he was put to the ground, he collapsed. Murong Yan waved his hand coldly, and Yang Zhifang was thrown to the ground.

Rong Taifu stared at Yang Zhifang, but Murong Yan's eyes were dragged into the torture chamber from Yang Zhifang and stayed on Rong Taifu's face intently. Shocked, incredulous, panicked, pitiful...... Mrs. Rong's eyes and expressions were so real on his face. Before Murong Yan could carefully study whether there was an element of family affection, Taifu Rong had already knelt down on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, please listen to the words of the old minister." ”

Murong Yan was waiting for this moment, wondering what Taifu Rong would say! Rong Taifu asked seriously: "The minister has heard about the poisoning of the prince in the past few days, and the minister wants to know if Lord Yang Shilang is the real murderer who poisoned the prince?" ”

"The real murderer who poisoned the prince has not yet been found." Murong Yan told the truth.

"That minister, may I ask Yang Shilang what crime he has committed?" Mrs. Rong continued to ask.

"Yang Zhifang, he is a descendant of Tianhongguo, and he tried every means to infiltrate my Darong court, intending to murder the emperor and subvert the Darong dynasty. I also want to ask, aren't Master Taifu aware of these things? Murong Yan's voice became even colder, and his eyes staring at Taifu Rong became more focused.

Rong Taifu's eyes were shocked, obviously stunned by the news that Murong Yan said, and after being silent for a long time, Rong Taifu said hatefully: "The minister originally thought that the emperor was because of the poisoning of the prince, but he didn't expect that it was the remnants of Tianhong Kingdom who still wanted to subvert the imperial court. Such a thief cannot redeem his transgression even if he dies......"

"What Lord Taifu said is extremely true, but this Yang Shifang's mouth is too tight, and I couldn't pry his mouth open with such a heavy punishment, so I want to ask Lord Taifu to give it a try, after all, Yang Zhifang was able to enter the court at the beginning, and it was still Lord Taifu who recommended him!" Murong Yan said slowly, and he couldn't hear any emotion from Murong Yan's voice.

Rong Shengren immediately trembled, and his head slammed on the ground, once, twice, three times...... The forehead soon became bloody. While Murong Yan was waiting, Mrs. Rong said intermittently with tears: "It's the old minister who is blind and can't see people clearly, and he has suffered bad people for the court, and the emperor is almost victimized, the old minister deserves to die!" Please ask the emperor to punish the old ministers with capital crimes! ”

Murong Yan stared coldly at the old tearful face, tears mixed with blood dripping from his forehead, a mess. After a long time, he said coldly: "Now I will give you a chance to atone for your sins, take a good look at this Yang Zhifang, and find out where his comrades are!" ”

Mrs. Rong kowtowed heavily on the ground again, and replied in a trembling voice: "The minister obeys the order." Slowly stood up, walked in front of Yang Zhifang, looked at Yang Zhifang for a while, and then ordered loudly: "Come on, splash this prisoner with water." ”

A basin of cold water was poured on Yang Zhifang's body, washing away his nakedness. The blood stains on the skin were exposed, and the marks left on the body by the various torture instruments were revealed. But this cold water didn't seem to be able to wake up Yang Zhifang, he only seemed to move in pain, his brows were furrowed tightly, but his eyes never opened. Rong Taifu's dissatisfied eyes looked at the waiter of the criminal department standing beside the emperor, and the waiter of the criminal department immediately whispered a few words to the prison guard on the side. Several guards hurried away and hurried back, still holding water in their hands, but it was the melted water. Then another basin of cold water poured towards Yang Zhifang on the ground, and after one after another, Yang Zhifang trembled and shrank into a ball, and his eyes slowly opened.

"Yang Zhifang, do you recognize the old man? Can you hear the old man now? Rong Shengren leaned down and asked slowly.

"Mrs. Rong, Lord Rong, how can I not know you." Yang Zhifang's voice was weak, as if it took a lot of effort to say a word.

"Yang Zhifang, the old man has lived for dozens of years, and he was deceived by your hypocritical appearance. What kneeling down can extinguish the fire, and the great goodness makes the tiger escape, it turns out that it is your lie in order to sneak into our court and get close to my emperor. Now the old man asks you, how did you step by step into the official career? Who helped you get to where you are today? Who are your comrades? Rong Shengren asked loudly, and Murong Yan sat on the side of the torture chamber and listened.

"Want to know? Lord Rong. In response to Rong Shengren, Yang Zhifang tried to grin the corners of his lips. It's just that at this time, the smile on the face full of scars looks so hideous and terrifying, the doctor girl crazy concubine: Evil Emperor, see you in the cave!.

"Hurry up." Rong Shengren said. Just when Murong Yan was surprised by Yang Zhifang's attitude today and listened carefully, he only heard Yang Zhifang say funny: "Of course I won't say, if you don't believe it, Master Taifu will try it with torture." But for your goodness. Zhifang would like to advise the adults to leave this dog emperor as soon as possible, he is a faint monarch, a tyrant, don't act for the tiger as soon as possible, and save the result of a stench for 10,000 years. "

Hearing these words, Rong Shengren was furious, and his beard was raised and he was tall. Yang Zhifang, who was lying on the ground with trembling fingers, said: "It's really a toast and don't eat you to eat the punishment wine, even if you want to have a good taste of the waiter of the heavenly prison torture equipment, the old man will be satisfied with you."

It's just that without waiting for Rong Shengren to order the punishment, Murong Yan had already opened his mouth to stop it: "Don't use the punishment, it's useless."

Rong Shengren's expression was stunned, what else could he ask if he couldn't use torture. Perhaps at this time, Mrs. Rong realized how difficult her task was. Only Yang Zhifang's eyes were full of provocation, and he had an expression of helplessness. For a person who is bent on death, he really longs for punishment from the bottom of his heart, even a heavy punishment, and it is a relief to die under that torture instrument.

The torture room was quiet, Rong Shengren seemed to suddenly remember something, and suddenly said loudly: "Yang Zhifang, as far as the old man knows, you have no relatives or friends in this Darong City, and you have a home since the emperor gave you a wife." You are not afraid of death, but what will happen to your wife if she dies because of you? Or let your wife suffer these torture instruments, what will you do? "

The smile on Yang Zhifang's face was full of resentment, and he stared at Mrs. Rong again. In the expectation of Rong Taifu, he slowly spoke: "I can't imagine that Rong Shengren, you dog thief, are as vicious as this dog emperor, my Yang family ancestors all died at the hands of this dog emperor, and now there are more of my husband and wife." It's just that if I Yang Zhifang dies, I will turn into a ghost and come to take revenge, so that you will not die a good death! ”

In Yang Zhifang's cursing, Mrs. Rong had already walked to the emperor and replied: "The minister implores the emperor to torture Yan Qin, the wife of the criminal, maybe there will be some unexpected gains from Yan Qin's mouth!" ”

Murong Yan listened coldly, as he initially expected, there would be no gain from the interrogation. An enemy of the Darong Dynasty lurked around him so silently, and in the end he couldn't find any clues. There will definitely be no gain from using Yan Qin to torture, how could Yang Zhifang, who is deeply scheming and experienced in the city government, tell Yan Qin any valuable clues? It's just that the more this result, the more uneasy Murong Yan becomes, knowing that there is an enemy around him, but he doesn't know who the enemy is, and no one can stand this feeling. It's just that what method can be used to make this Yang Zhifang take the initiative to say it!

"Your Majesty, are you worried about Yan Qin's identity as the daughter of General Yan. Now Yan Qin is the wife of Yang Zhifang, a family member of the remnants of Tianhong Kingdom, and the minister still asks the emperor to torture Yan Qin! The minister does not believe that a woman's family can withstand such severe punishment! Mrs. Rong still suggested earnestly.

Hearing the words "General Yan", Murong Yan felt a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and Yan Yue's voice suddenly flashed in his ears: "Your Majesty, if you don't use medicine, you must ensure that the other party cooperates." But if the prisoner is interrogated, with hallucinogenic drugs and psychological hints, he will reveal all his secrets. "Hypnotic inducement, this is a way that Yan Yue thought of in order to prove that Ma Gonggong in the queen's palace was a murderer. Later, it was used on his father Yan Wenzhong to wash away Yan Wenzhong's injustice of collaborating with the enemy.

"Your Majesty, do you want to torture Yan Qin, please ask the emperor to decide?" Rong Taifu asked loudly again, Rong Shengren didn't understand what the emperor was thinking, why was the excited expression on his face.

Murong Yan spoke, but this time his face was full of joy, and he said loudly: "No, I have thought of a way, as long as I wait a few days, I guarantee that this Yang Zhifang will take the initiative to tell all the secrets, just like General Yan back then." ”

The torture room was quiet, and Mrs. Rong looked up at the emperor in confusion, and the waiter of the criminal department was also confused. Only Yang Zhifang trembled. Whether others know it or not, because of Yan Qin, Yang Zhifang is clear about how General Yan washes away his grievances. Psychedelics plus hypnosis. At that time, Yang Zhifang also had doubts when he heard Yan Qin talk about it, but later witnessed Yan Yue's ability to use poison, and Yang Zhifang had every reason to believe that Yan Yue could do it. Yang Zhifang's eyes searched in the torture chamber, and the torture equipment was too far away for him to reach. Beside him, Yang Zhifang suddenly saw a few pieces of glittering ----- ice! It was the ice cube that was added when he poured water on himself just now, and the torture chamber was cold and had not yet melted.

"Lord Rong, come here, I have something to say to you." Yang Zhifang said with a smile. Rong Taifu turned back in surprise, but his footsteps walked towards Yang Zhifang.

"You keep your head down, I'll tell you something." Yang Zhifang still said with a smile, Rong Shengren hesitated for a moment, and slowly leaned down towards Yang Zhifang. Seeing a flash of white light in front of him and a pain in his neck, Rong Shengren let out a miserable scream and staggered backwards. All this happened too quickly, and when the guards rushed forward, the ice in Yang Zhifang's hand had already pierced his throat. In a moment, blood stained the chamber again.

"Hurry up and announce the imperial doctor! Fast! Murong Yan shouted uncontrollably.
