Chapter 295: Chasuo
Lin Shu glanced out and pushed the door open.
As soon as the door rang, the man sleeping on the window couch in the room opened his eyes, turned his head to look, and closed his eyes lazily.
Lin Shu was a little weak-hearted, rubbed his nose, which was red and cold from the wind, and closed the door with his backhand.
"It's still warm in the house, it's freezing outside, and my nose is going to freeze."
Lu Yi was silent.
Lin Shu said again: "When I came, I told the dining room, let them clean up some hot soup and hot rice, you get up and wash your face sober, and eat something." ”
Lu Yi said lazily: "Thank you Commander Lin, you still want to enjoy food." ”
What can Lin Shu say?
He is at fault for this.
Originally, this matter in the palace had nothing to do with Lu Yi, but he dragged people here.
This kind of thing is something that ordinary people can't hide, and if they can't find out, they will naturally fall into the situation, and if they find out, they may not be meritorious.
Lin Shu won't go around in circles anymore, let's get straight to the point.
"How's that going?"
Lu Yi yawned and motioned for him to look at the table: "It's all there." Three died last night, and two more during the day today. ”
Lin Shu muttered: "I have to rectify and rectify when I go back, there is nothing light or heavy in my hands, and everyone is killed before the case is completed." ”
There was a stack of confessions on the case, a few thin pieces of paper, Lin Shu picked it up and read it at a glance, was silent for a long time, and said in a muffled voice: "What is this called, a good life is just a matter of death." ”
Lu Yi was happy and covered his head with the quilt.
Some people will feel that life is good even if they eat three meals of thin porridge a day, and some people are still dissatisfied even if they eat meat for three meals. Some people think that they feel that they are emperors and nobles, if it were not for the rebellion of the rebellious ministers and thieves, they must be living a life of superiority now, rich and powerful. Thinking of the good life that their ancestors once had, but the good life of their ancestors is gone, isn't that as uncomfortable as digging out the heart and lungs?
This kind of person feels that no one in the world can live in favor of him, and since he is not doing well, then no one in the world should think about it.
And this kind of person, what is the reason?
The man in the dining room knocked on the door twice, brought in two food boxes, took out two meat, two vegetarian dishes, a small pot of wine, and a bowl of rice and several steamed buns and put them away.
"The two adults use it slowly, and the younger one waits outside."
Lu Yi served himself a bowl of rice, and did not greet Lin Shu, but sat down to eat.
One of the two meat dishes is roast mutton, juicy and soupy, and the other is white-cut chicken, the chicken skin is cooked tightly and elastic, and the dipping sauce is very delicious and delicious.
The two vegetarian dishes are dried bamboo shoots and stir-fried bok choy.
Don't look at the four dishes are not worth anything, but at this time, it is not easy to save energy and eat two clean vegetarian dishes.
Lu Yi ate a lot of shredded bamboo shoots and cabbage, Lin Shu came over and sat down after reading the confession, one step late, there were not many vegetarian dishes left, so he could only eat a few more bites of mutton.
As for the white-cut chicken, neither of them touched it.
In the final analysis, Lin Shu is a janitarian guard, Lu Yi is a foreign official, and neither of them is a person from the torture room, and they are not used to the torture room. One of the various tortures in the torture chamber was made with boiling water, and the skin and oil of the people were scalded...... Alas, let alone let them eat this white-cut chicken, even if they put it here, they feel unappetizing.
The eunuchs in the torture chamber were accustomed to this, and they laughed and told them about the techniques of torture. Because of the cold weather, in the early years, there were people who stripped off their clothes and poured water on them and threw them outside, according to him, "it is very labor-saving, the weather is cold, and the wind blows the body exactly like a knife", but "it is not very easy to make, some people freeze for less than a quarter of an hour and stiffen, and after the room is warmed up, the brain is a little not very clear, but can not ask."
Thank you, neither Lin Shu nor Lu Yi want to learn these tricks.
Lu Yi finished eating and pushed the bowl: "When will you finish this errand?" ”
Lin Shu was still a little embarrassed: "Tomorrow, tomorrow, no matter whether anyone can catch it or not, I will go back to the emperor." ”
The torture room is a place that normal people don't like, but when Lin Shu comes in, he can't go out easily. Before the matter was over, he couldn't go out of the palace and go home. In the same way, he couldn't even go to the Four Princes' place or the school outside Xifeng Gate to spend the night as before.
Well, there is a place in the world that is not afraid of this trouble.
General Lu's Mansion.
But Lu Yi hasn't been back for many years, and now he doesn't want to go back.
General Lu is not in the mansion, his brother, and General Lu Xiao are not there, and now only Lu Yi's sister-in-law lives in the mansion with her children, not to mention that Lu Yi and his father don't deal with each other, even if there is no reason in the middle, he will not go to the young sister-in-law.
Lin Shu's errand went well, but it was also very sad.
The confession that came out was summarized into one, this time Yilan Hall was poisoned, and it was a little eunuch named Sigui.
No need to ask, when he went to get Sigui, he had already "committed suicide in fear of sin".
The palace maid Xiaowan, who often had dealings with Sigui and delivered news, also died.
As for the people who are getting it now, some of them are greedy for small profits to make it convenient for others, some bite to death and do not open their mouths, or they are tortured and bite indiscriminately.
The last two one is the old Shanggong surnamed He, this person is seventy years old, the punishment is useless, and he will definitely die if he uses it, and the other is a eunuch surnamed Zhang, who is the treasurer in charge of firewood. Don't look at the low position, but the oil and water are big, and all palaces and courtyards have to deal with him, and he is well-connected and well-informed.
The surname of the person he confessed was Peng, and his name was Peng Huiyang.
This person is from the Second Prince's Mansion.
So it's bad here.
Of course, Peng Huiyang can't catch it, and he can't see anyone alive or dead.
If it was really him, he would have run out of the capital a long time ago, where to find it.
If it weren't for him...... It is estimated that this person will probably sink in a place where he doesn't know what to see, and he will never be found in his life.
Lin Shu was so worried that he wanted to pull his hair: "This matter is really a." ”
It was as if someone was leading them step by step.
In the end, the basin of dirty water was buckled on the head of the second prince.
The emperor will letter?
With the mind of the second prince, can he do this? It's obviously impossible.
"Think about the good." Lu Yi comforted him: "The other party tossed such a pass, in fact, the gain outweighed the loss. In the past few days, the people who have been caught and judged, pulled out the radish and brought out the mud, and at least 20 or so spies have been sieved out, right? ”
Lin Shu nodded, and said a little reluctantly: "These people are not important people......
Those who can be thrown can only be regarded as small minions.
Lu Yi smiled: "I'm different from what you think." You also know how old the remnants of the previous dynasty are, right? The youngest are also in their thirties, and they must have enough people in the palace, so they have already launched a palace change. There are very few of them, so they have to use coaxing, deception, and intimidation to win over these little palace maids and eunuchs to do things. That Sigui, he was targeted not long after he entered the palace, and it took him four years and a lot of money to find an opportunity to enter the Yilan Palace to help temporarily. Do they have many such people in their hands? There must not be many, and each one of them took time and effort to get their hands on it, but if it is scrapped, how many such people do you think they can use? ”
Lin Shu's eyes suddenly lit up.
