Clash of Kings (52)
I don't know how long it took, when I woke up from my slumber again, I found a bowl at my feet, there were only two hard steamed buns in it, it turned out that what was played on TV was true, once I entered the class room, it was really like going to hell, I was abused, there was no daylight, and I ate two steamed buns a day, how long can this person live?
My tears fell unconsciously, why do you say that my life is so hard and difficult, I shouldn't be a person of this era, I am still a prisoner here, I have no parents, and no friends can help, what can I do?
By the way, Xiao Xuanxuan and Frogskin, do they know that I am locked up, will they think of saving me?
With tears in my eyes, I swallowed the two hard steamed buns, no matter what I did, I had to be strong to defend myself! The Jade Concubine must have been seen when I told the story, but because I only watched Queen Rong go, I didn't pay attention to other women, so how did the Jade Concubine know me? Why did she frame me, I don't seem to have offended anyone here?
Actually, I can clear my name as long as I say that I am a woman, but if so, will I be guilty of deception as Frogskin said, and will that crime also be a capital crime?
Sadness and panic hit me.
Just as he was thinking, the mustache came over and opened the cell door.
"Come out!" He said sympathetically.
"Do what?" You can't pull me out and cut off my head right now, right? I clung to the cell door and refused to go out.
"You have been handed over to the Criminal Department, and Lord Jing will personally interrogate you." Said the mustache.
"Who is Lord Jing?" I still asked uncomfortably.
"Let's go, he's the biggest official in the Criminal Department." The mustache said succinctly.
If it was the biggest official in the criminal department who came to try him, he shouldn't be a fool, I felt a little sure and decided to defend myself.
After a slight pause, I walked out of the cell with him.
When the prison guards removed the cloth covering my eyes, I was stunned by the environment around me, and there is a poem that describes the cruel prison equipment of ancient prisons: "Push into the prison and crowd into the prison door." Yellow whiskers knots, hemp rope ready to hang and stretch; The black face is imprisoned, and the wooden box is arranged to be locked and shackled. Kill the wrestler, the jailer has low back pain when he breaks; Scattering the horns, the prisoners were frightened when they saw it. Don't say that if you die to see Hades, that's all it will be like a real hell. ”
The various horrific torture instruments described in this word are actually found here.
"Your Excellency, don't kneel down yet!" A pointy-mouthed jailer roared.
Immediately, a stick hit me directly on the knee, and I squatted down directly in pain, and the prison officer was about to make up for it, when a voice sounded: "Forget it, he was also a second-class official." ”
I looked up in pain, only to see the person sitting on the top of the man wearing a brocade official uniform, exuding a noble and cold atmosphere, at this time the corners of his eyes were slightly raised, and he said to me: "Five people, this person has obtained both stolen goods, you should be happy, cover that handprint, I don't embarrass you." ”
"My lord, I was wronged, I ask Concubine Chuan Yu to come and confront you!" I said indignantly.
"The Jade Concubine knows that she will inevitably die, she hanged herself last night, you were caught in the Jade Concubine Palace by the harem guard, everyone saw that you were disheveled in bed, what else do you have to quibble?" The man said.
My head exploded, and I vaguely remembered the scene from last night.
"Come, take the confession to him and put his fingerprint!" The man said coldly.
"What a joke!" I tore up the confession that the prison servant had placed in front of me.
"I want to see the emperor, and the emperor also gave me a gold medal for avoiding death!" I shouted, holding the little golden sign in one hand.
"The emperor has ordered a strict trial, come and take back his gold medal for avoiding death!" The man ordered.
Two people came up and snatched the death-free gold medal from my hand, it turned out that this death-free gold medal was really like what Xiao Xuanxuan said, as long as the emperor turned his face, it would become a waste.
"My lord, it seems that he doesn't need to be punished, he won't recruit!" A prison officer next to the man in brocade said.
"Someone, torture!" The man in brocade dropped a token.
In the imperial study, a man in white was anxiously saying to Xuanyuan: "Your Majesty, the five major people will never be that kind of person, please be aware of it!" "The man in white is Xuan Ze.
"Sixth brother, your legs are so inconvenient, did you come here early in the morning just to ask for that sinner?" Xuanyuan said coldly.
"Although I haven't known the five people for too long, please believe my feelings, maybe there is something hidden in it, please check it carefully!" Xuan Ze still insisted.
Cheng's father-in-law hurriedly came in from outside the room and whispered something in Xuanyuan's ear.
"Let him in!" Xuanyuan's face was full of anger.
Xuan Ze turned his head and saw Xuan Li entering the house.
Seeing Xuan Ze, Xuan Li only nodded slightly, and directly saluted Xuanyuan.
"Your Majesty, may I ask what crimes the five people have committed?" Xuan Li asked.
"Since you entered the palace early in the morning, you must have heard that he has done some good deeds?" Xuanyuan didn't answer directly, but asked Xuanli instead.
"Does the emperor really believe that the five major people will have an affair with the Jade Concubine?" Xuan Li asked again.
"I don't believe it and can't do it, the two of them were caught and raped in bed by the harem guards!" Xuanyuan's face was bulging.
"Did the emperor see it with his own eyes, or did someone else report it?" Xuan Li continued to ask rhetorically.
"I didn't see it with my own eyes, but the dozen or so guards saw it with their own eyes, how can you make me not believe it?" Regulus said.
"The subordinate brother guarantees with his personality, the five people will never do such a dirty thing! Please also ask the emperor to take a clear look. Xuan Li continued: "The emperor thinks about it, after the five major people entered the palace, they have been helping my Xuan Guo to come up with good strategies and do good deeds, how can a person like him do such a thing?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, please think twice!" Xuan Ze also chimed in.
"Then you give me a reasonable explanation, maybe he entered the palace for the sake of Concubine Yu? Now that Concubine Yu is dead, there is no proof of death, and the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty may have heard about this like you, where is the face of me? Xuanyuan's anger still didn't subside.
"The younger brother is also willing to use his personality as a guarantee!" Xuan Ze said.
"Hmph, now that Xing is already interrogating, there will be a conclusion later, you should wait!" Xuanyuan said coldly.
"Your Majesty, Lord Jing is here!" Cheng's father-in-law reported at the door of the house.
"What is the result of Jing Aiqing's trial?" Xuanyuan asked.
"Emperor Qiqi, the five major people have been recruited!" Qin Jing handed over a slip of paper.
Xuanyuan opened the paper sheet, looked at it for a while, threw the paper at Xuanli, and said in a stern tone: "Fifth brother, sixth brother, you see, he has confessed himself!" ”
Xuan Li didn't pick up the paper that fell to the ground, Xuan Ze was trying to pick it up, and suddenly heard Xuan Li say: "Your Majesty, this must be a trick, absolutely impossible!" ”
"Caught at the scene, he himself was detained, does the fifth prince not believe in my interrogation ability so much." Qin Jing also seemed to have a dissatisfied tone.
"Your Majesty, do you really believe that two women would commit adultery?" Xuan Li said lightly.
