Chapter Seventy-Nine: Will it cause trouble?
In Fuping Prison, it was gloomy and dark, lit by faint candlelight, and all kinds of cruel torture instruments, such as double-headed forks, finger clips, iron chains, foot roasts, and peelers...... Hanging on the wall one by one, glowing with a bloodthirsty dark light, if you listen carefully, it seems that there are still ghosts crying ghosts and wolves.
"Ahh
"Ahh
The screams of pain echoed in the prison, which was terrifying, and I saw a bloody man lying on the ground, his body emitting a foul smell.
He was trembling, his body was full of holes, and there was something that looked like an ant crawling through these little holes.
"For, what, don't kill, me!" A fragile and resentful voice rang out.
The man's bloody pupils stared straight at the man in the chair, his eyes had been destroyed and miserable, and he could see nothing but horror.
"Please, kill me!"
The man trembled all over, and the pain was so lifeless that he was no longer alive, "Even if you torture again, I won't let you harm my master!"
"Ahh Suddenly, a termite burst out of his face, forcing him to scream and burst his throat.
"Murong Li! You don't want to die!"
"Murong Li! You're not even as good as a brute!"
"Murong Li! I won't let you go even if I'm a ghost!"
"Ahh
"Our lord has served the country and the people all his life, six sons, three were killed in battle, and two were disabled! Such a person, you say that he is treason!"
"Hahaha! Heaven is unfair! Heaven is unfair! β
"The Shu family has been loyal and loyal to the court for generations, without complaints, but such a person has been tragically destroyed! It's unfair! β
"Now it's our Lin family's turn! This is to destroy all the loyal servants! β
"Hahaha! The loyal ministers died tragically, the traitorous ministers were in charge, and the faint king! O faint king! β
"Such a country is doomed to perish!"
"Hahaha!"
"Whoosh--"
"Ahh
"Bell--"
"What people!"
Suddenly, a sharp arrow flew and pierced the man's heart, killing him in one move, only to see him immediately fall to the ground, without breath.
The sharp arrow came too suddenly, which startled the people inside, and hurriedly called someone to chase it, but was stopped by the man in the dress.
I saw that his body trembled a little, and he looked at the man in the dark clothes with a nervous expression.
"Lord Murong..."
"Deal with him."
The cold and dead voice sounded, and I saw that although this person's facial features were stunning, they were too cold, like a god of death, and others couldn't get close.
Isn't this person Murong Li, the living king of Hades?
Cold sweat broke out on the forehead of the adult in official uniform, and it was obvious that he was afraid of the god of death.
"So, what should Lord Lin do? Does he need to be interrogated? β
Murong Li's expression was cold and silent, he glanced at the person lying on the ground, his eyebrows trembled slightly, and a cold voice came, "No need, Lin Xuan's matter, the emperor has his own decision, let him stay first." As for the rest, let's interrogate them one by one. β
"Yes, my subordinates obey."
Before the words landed, he saw that Murong Li had already left, but the lord of the mansion was breathing well, sighing several times, feeling like he had been reborn after the catastrophe.
I just saw the person lying on the ground, covering his nose with his cuffs, his eyes flashing with disgust, just looking at the other side of the cell, hesitated for a moment, and then smiled weakly but cruelly.
Lord Lin, don't blame me for being ruthless, who told you to have something to do with the Shu family? Your Majesty, this is determined to destroy you! I'm a four-grade sesame official, what else can I do besides obeying orders?
However, looking at what you've done for Fu Ping over the years, I'll send the others away!
After Murong Li walked out of the prison, he saw He Bi and said, "My lord, my subordinates asked people to track down the man in black, but he did it lightly, and our people were lost, so please punish him." β
Murong Li's expression did not change, and his footsteps did not stop, he just looked at the clouds in the sky, and paused for a few seconds before he spoke, "Have all the people from the Lin family been arrested?" β
He Bi's body shook for a moment, and there were some beads of sweat on his forehead, but it was clear that the weather was very cool, and the cool breeze was blowing, and he heard that his voice was a little scared.
"Lord Qiqi, Lord Lin seems to have expected that before we broke in and arrested him, he had already dismissed his subordinates, leaving only one butler. He used to have six sons, but now there are only two left, one of whom is still disabled, and he was sent away two years ago.
The other is the youngest, who is still on the frontier, and I heard that a month ago, he fought with the enemy and was forced into a valley, and his fate is now unknown. He also has two daughters, the eldest daughter has been married for many years, married to just a small businessman, and is not in the Yeyuan Country at the moment, I heard that she went to Xichu two months ago.
The youngest daughter has not yet been married, and she is probably seventeen or eighteen years old, but we didn't see her when we went to Lin's house to arrest people, and there was no news of her when we inquired about her. Lord Lin's wife passed away around six years ago, so when we went to the Lin Mansion, there were only Lord Lin and the housekeeper.
Lord Lin also has a younger brother, who is in business and has no contact with Lord Lin on weekdays. In the same way, when we went to his house to arrest someone, only him, his wife, and his children were sent away, and we were still looking for him. β
When Murong Li walked to the street, he glanced at the lonely street, his expression froze, and he continued to walk forward, "What about the rest of the people who are very close to the family?" β
Lin Bi felt cold behind him, and he always felt a little cold, looking at the empty street, his expression was a little complicated.
Since the Lin family was arrested, the people of this Fu Ping have closed their doors one after another, staying at home, no one even walks on the street, except for a few inns that are still open, this Fu Ping is like a wilderness, no popularity.
Hearing Murong Li's voice, he immediately tensed up and replied, "According to the adult's orders, as long as it is someone related to the old lady Shu, we have already sent someone to arrest it, but the adult didn't say that he wanted to live, so if someone resisted, our people slaughtered them." β
The words landed for a long time, but Murong Li did not react, Lin Bi thought that when he didn't speak, he was just about to wipe his sweat with his sleeve, when he heard Murong Li's lifeless voice sound, which frightened him.
If it was on weekdays, Lin Bi was not so afraid of him, but since Murong Li was beaten by a hundred boards last time, the dead silence all over his body has become thicker, and those under his command who are unfavorable have all been skinned and fed to the tiger.
So, how could he not be afraid of him? I'm afraid that if I don't pay attention, I will end up like this.
"I remember that Mrs. Shu has a proud protΓ©gΓ©, surnamed Wei, who was originally just a grass people, and later became the champion of liberal arts under the guidance of Mrs. Shu, but it seems that he only served as an official for a year before he was discharged and returned to the field, but there is such a person?"
He Bi thought for less than seven seconds, and immediately replied, "There is indeed such a person, his name is Wei Wenjie, it was a year before the Shu family was destroyed, and the old lady Shu accepted him as a student, and then he became the champion of liberal arts that year, and he resigned a month before the Shu family was full of beheadings." I heard that he returned to his hometown, it seems to be Bixiazhuang, where he set up a private school. β
Murong Li's expression froze, and after a second of pause, he continued to walk forward, and said in a cold voice, "It turned out to be Bixiazhuang, did you catch him?" β
He Bi trembled, facing the death gaze, he was a little frightened, and replied truthfully after a few seconds.
"This, no, I heard that he left a year ago, and the private school was also handed over to others, and we asked around and didn't have his whereabouts, but I caught the person of the Shu family in Bixiazhuang, and it was Mama Hu who served Miss Shu."
Murong Li's footsteps stopped, his eyes were cold, and he had no temperature, and after thinking for less than seven seconds, he said, "Is there a living mouth?" β
Lin Bi felt that his whole body was cold, and his heart was half blocked by something, so that he couldn't breathe, pressed his discomfort, and tried to find his voice.
"There are only women and children in Mama Hu's family, and when her brothers saw that several women were good-looking, they became lustful for a while, but those women would rather die than obey, so they slaughtered Mama Hu's family."
Lin Bi felt the strong breath of death, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and tried his best to make a sound, "Originally, there were two living mouths, both of them were children, and then a woman in red suddenly appeared, although her martial arts were not very good, but she was poisonous, and none of the people at the scene were alive, all of them were gone, and the two children were gone." β
"Really? Poisoning? β
Murong Li said lightly, his expression was cold, his eyes were dead, and he couldn't see his mood.
"Continue to let people guard in Bixiazhuang, if you can't catch anyone again, you don't have to come back."
"Yes!"
Sanssouci Valley
After Nan Xinuo and Zhuo Wuchen had dinner together, they chatted for a while, and looked at Yun Shizi and the third senior brother who seemed to have something to say, so they went back to the room by themselves.
I haven't had a good rest in the past few days, and I was just about to go into the collapse to rest, when I saw Qiulan coming with a letter, and when she saw the handwriting on the letter, Nan Xinuo smiled with her eyebrows.
Qiulan was a little worried, and after hesitating for a while, she saw Nan Xinuo's indifferent expression, so she said, "The county lord, my subordinates also sent people to investigate the matter of the Shu family, only knowing that the Shu family planned a rebellion and was beheaded by the whole family, but the attitude of the people towards this matter seems to be very strange, they are mostly sorry, and some people keep their mouths shut, for fear of getting into trouble, and the people also cry out for the Shu family."
After the Shu family was a loyal minister, the old lady Shu had many students, all of whom were loyal to the court, and the prince was still a student of the old lady. However, after the Shu family was beheaded all over the house, those related to the Shu family were also executed, no matter old or young, no one was left.
Those who are not in low positions are either demoted or dismissed, and some are issued to the frontier. In short, as long as you have a relationship with the Shu family, there will be no good results.
A few days ago, it was the people of the Shu family who assassinated His Royal Highness the Prince, so Dali Temple began to arrest people again, as long as they were involved with the Shu family, they could not escape.
The woman and child we saw in Bixiazhuang were Mama Hu who was serving Miss Shu. She left the Shu family long before the accident, and she didn't expect that even the women and children of them would not be spared by the court. β
Nan Xinuo sat on the stool, brought himself a cup of tea, remembered Emperor Yeyuan, looked detached, and smiled helplessly.
"Once the emperor has the intention to kill, he will definitely float millions of corpses and bleed thousands of miles. If he didn't kill all these people, he wouldn't be at ease. β
Qiulan frowned, seeing that the county lord was so calm, she hesitated again and again to express her concerns.
"So, county lord, will you cause any trouble if you save that family? After all, it is the person the emperor wants to kill, if the people of Dali Temple find us, with Murong Li's temperament, I am afraid it will not be easy to get rid of it. β
