"Noise, shut the old woman's mouth." Su Shangqian said coldly.

The two messengers took the cloth ball and gagged the old lady's mouth and pressed her aside, Jiang Xiyang and the others were so frightened that they didn't even dare to howl like the old lady.

Syllable! Syllable! Syllable!

Board after board, the skin of the beating is open and the flesh is blooming.

Soon, the pants were red and dripping with blood.

Du Muyan was drenched in cold sweat on his forehead, and he couldn't help but cry out bitterly.

"You know it's hard to get a board, right? I still can't tell you honestly, how Jiang Wanxiu instructed you to collude with the Shadow Demon Sect and murder the emperor! Su Shangqian asked gloomily.

Du Muyan's lips had been bitten by himself, and his mouth was full of blood, but he just glanced at Su Shangqian and didn't say a word.

Obviously didn't want to waste energy talking to him.

"Continue to beat this official, and don't stop until you finish the fifty boards." Su Shangqian said coldly.

Bang bang bang.

……

Brother Jiang Xiyang trembled when he saw it, and his face turned pale.

"My lord, the fifty boards are finished." The messenger stepped forward and said.

Du Muyan had almost fainted and was dying.

"Du Muyan, are you recruiting?" Su Shangqian said angrily.

Du Muyan gritted his teeth and said, "The Jiang family...... Not...... Sin ......"

"Bastard!" Su Shang couldn't move his anger.

As a squire of the Criminal Department, he knew very well which people's testimony was convincing.

First of all, Zhang Xiyue, but she didn't catch it.

followed by the old lady, Jiang Wanxiu's grandmother, and the head of the Jiang family, but this old woman looked like she was willing to take her life, and she was afraid that she would really return to the west after two hits, which would be troublesome.

Then there is Du Muyan.

She took care of the shops for the Jiang family, and if she could falsify an account of the Jiang family's dealings with the Shadow Sect, it would be ironclad evidence.

But fifty boards cost her half her life, and she even gritted her teeth and didn't admit it, she was a hard bone.

Forget it, change someone first, as long as someone recruits first.

Su Shangqian lowered his head and flipped through the information, and selected another person, "Come on, bring Su Mo over." ”

"You are Jiang Wanxiu's guard, she colluded with the Shadow Demon Sect, you must know best, you can rest assured, you are not a relative of the Jiang family, even if you confess, I guarantee that you will be guilty and make meritorious contributions, and you will never be fine, and you can go further."

Su Shangqian looked at the young lieutenant in front of him, coercing and seducing.

Su Mo said indifferently: "If you want to kill you, let me frame the princess, no way!" ”

"You're all hard bones, aren't you? Give me fifty boards first. Su Mo didn't say a word, the fifty big board didn't even frown, and Su Shang was angry.

"Come on, bring the shopkeeper of the beauty shop." Su Shangqian was quite confident this time.

Xi Niang was also arrested, but she was locked up with those shop managers, they were not the Jiang family, even if they were asked, they would not die, and they were locked in an ordinary cell outside.

"Xi Niang, Jiang Wanxiu rebelled, and the Jiang family is over. As long as you are smarter, our Su family will take over the beauty shop and still let you be the shopkeeper. ”

Su Shangqian looked at her and said confidently: "Beauty Shop spends so much money every year, how Jiang Wanxiu uses this silver to collude with the anti-party, you should know, right?" ”

Xi Niang glanced at Du Muyan and Su Mo, who were beaten and bloodied next to her, and became angry, but she just said politely on her face: "My lord is clear, the accounts of the beauty shop are clear, and the princess did not rebel." ”

"You are bold! As long as you tell the truth, you are a small shop manager, and the Jiang family's rebellion will not implicate you, but you dare to help Jiang Wanxiu conceal it, this is the crime of covering up, and you should be beheaded. Do you want to die, or do you want to live? "Su Shang moved to measure the threat.

Report Jiang Wanxiu, you are still the shopkeeper of Beauty Fang.

But if he didn't admit it, he died with the Jiang family.

"What the folk girl said is true, and she didn't dare to hide it in the slightest." Xi Niang did not hesitate at all, and said frankly.

Su Shangqian sneered, "Okay, it's another hard bone." Come on, hit her fifty boards! ”

After fifty big boards, Xi Niang also became like Du Muyan, with open skin and flesh, scaly and bruised, and her anger was like a gossamer.

"Are you recruited?" Su Shangqian said coldly.

For some reason, he felt that it was not so simple to want these people to confess.

Don't they all say that the wall is falling down and everyone is pushing it?

Why did Jiang Wanxiu suffer all the crimes, but these people would rather die with her than confess?

"The princess is not guilty, and the folk girl has nothing to say." Xi Niang gritted her teeth and said reluctantly.

Su Shangqian stared at Xi Niang, "You are not from the Jiang family, you are just a steward, you can put your life into it?" ”

"Folk Girl...... Why isn't the Minnu the Jiang family...... Adult, you want to count the Jiang family...... Full of ...... Don't miss me, I'm from the Jiang family...... House slaves, be together...... cough cough ...... "Xi Niang coughed up a large pool of blood, but she couldn't bear it anymore and fell to the ground unconscious.

House slaves? That deed of sale, Jiang Wanxiu burned early.

But Xi Niang will never forget that when her orphan and widow were almost forced to die, the bright woman who pushed the door and walked in gave her a way out.

So she willingly gave her the deed of sale.

Jiang Wanxiu bought her, and she is a member of the Jiang family.

"My lord, the prisoner is unconscious!" The jailer said.

When Su Shangqian saw the scene in front of him, his head hurt.

has already fought three, each of them is a hard bone, and these are the people with the most powerful circumstantial evidence, and if they are replaced by others, there is no such effect.

You can't count on Jiang's family pouring swill to prove Jiang Wanxiu's rebellion.

Su Shangqian's eyes swept over the crowd, and he suddenly sighed, "Just these two straw bales, it's Jiang Wanxiu's cousin, let's play fifty boards first." ”

"Huh?" Jiang Xiyang and Jiang Muyu were suddenly frightened.

Before they could refuse, the messenger had already stepped forward, pressed them to the tiger chair, and began to fight.

Syllable! Syllable! Syllable!

A few boards went down, and the skin of the two of them opened.

"I'll recruit! I'll do anything! Jiang Xiyang cried and said.

Jiang Muyu also hurriedly said: "Jiang Wanxiu forced us to do it, we are all innocent!" ”

Su Shangqian was overjoyed, "Finally, someone is willing to recruit, and Lord Ben still thinks that you are all a group of hard bones." Hahaha, keep calling me! ”

Jiang Xiyang screamed miserably, "My lord, we have all recruited, why do you want to fight!" ”

"This official said that he will beat you with fifty boards, which is fifty boards, and if you don't beat enough, isn't it untrustworthy, finish the fight first, and then write the guilt!" Su Shangqian said with a sneer. ginger

The family is so difficult.

Now I finally caught two soft persimmons, and I beat them first until they were completely convinced.

"Xiyang Muyu, how can you talk nonsense! The Jiang family is not guilty, Jiang Wanxiu did not rebel! Seeing this, the old lady struggled to spit out the cloth in her mouth and shouted angrily.

Su Shangqian got the circumstantial evidence, his mood was much better, and he said lazily: "Knowing the times is a good man, old woman, I think it's best for you to learn from your two good grandsons, and save yourself from asking for hardships." ”

"You dare to frame the Jiang family, do you still have the face to see the ancestors of the Jiang family?" Du Muyan's face turned pale.

Jiang Xiyang screamed: "It's all Jiang Wanxiu's fault, she did it herself, but it was us who were unlucky, why!" ”

"Grandmother, you can recruit it, everyone has recruited it, so as not to be beaten......" Jiang Muyu cried wolf.

When Su Shangqian saw this scene, he had a satisfied smile on his face, but he also despised the style of Jiang Xiyang's brothers in his heart.

Even the steward with a foreign surname refused to admit it, but this cousin's closest relative, but he was recruited after two boards.

If this is a member of his Su family, he Su Shangqian will drive these two bastards out of the house first.

However, the Jiang family has such bastard goods, and Su Shangqian is very happy.

"Yes, as long as you are willing to confess, Lord Ben will intercede with the emperor, for the sake of your meritorious report, so that you will not die. But if it's a diehard, then die with Jiang Wanxiu. I'll leave it here today. Su Shangqian said lightly.

"I'll recruit! Adult, I'll recruit! Jiang Zhao hurriedly said.

"My lord, we are innocent, Jiang Wanxiu did it, and it has nothing to do with us."

"Yes, it seems that there are quite a few smart people." Su Shangqian glanced at the two of them disdainfully and complimented.

The old lady was almost angry with them, "You dare to talk nonsense, it's not my Jiang family today!" ”

"It's not good, who wants to die with Jiang Wanxiu, who goes, I won't go anyway!" Jiang Zhao turned his face and said ruthlessly.

The old lady looked defeated.

I didn't expect the Jiang family to come up with such an uncompetitive thing.

At this moment, Zhao Fumeng, who was dressed in a white robe, walked over.

"What was the outcome of the adult's interrogation?" Su Shangqian said with a smile: "There are a lot of hard bones, but the circumstantial evidence is still obtained, but the weight of these people is really not as good as these hard bones, it's a pity." ”

"This is natural, the Jiang family's affairs, Jiang Wanxiu will only hand it over to people who trust it." Zhao Fumeng glanced at the bloodied people on the ground who were beaten, and looked at Su Shangqian, "Do you want Jiang Wanxiu's testimony?" ”

Su Shangqian sighed, "I would like to, but I can't punish a female official, and I didn't get the warrant from Huang Ting, so I interrogated like this, how could Jiang Wanxiu recruit him?" Besides, even if I don't want to die, I really torture Jiang Wanxiu to extract a confession, didn't the saint say that Jiang Wanxiu would not recruit him? ”

"Yes, if you beat Jiang Wanxiu, she won't recruit. But you beat someone else...... Zhao Fumeng paused, "Has Jiang Wanxiu's mother been arrested?" ”

Su Shangqian shook his head, "No, her mother ran fast and is still searching." ”

"Then Du Muyan." Zhao Fumeng obviously knew everything about the Jiang family, and looked at the bloodied woman on the ground.

Su Shangqian was slightly stunned, "What does the holy woman mean?" ”

"For Jiang Wanxiu, beating some people is more uncomfortable than beating herself."

Zhao Fumeng said abruptly: "I have given her a way out, but she refuses to go, then there is no way, no one can stand in the way of His Royal Highness the Martyr King, Lord Su, why not give it a try?" ”

Su Shangqian sneered, "Her Royal Highness the Holy Maiden, this idea is good. Come on, bring Jiang Wanxiu. ”

Two jailers escorted Jiang Wanxiu to the execution room.

Looking at Du Muyan and the others on the ground, Jiang Wanxiu was distressed and angry.

Su Shangqian, she wrote down all these boards.

"Jiang Wanxiu, colluding with the Shadow Demon Sect to rebel, can you recruit it?" Su Shangqian asked coldly.

Jiang Wanxiu said indifferently: "My lord is clear, I am innocent. ”

"This is the testimony of your uncle and two cousins, they both confessed, and you colluded with the rebel party."

Su Shangqian put those testimonies in front of Jiang Wanxiu and looked at her condescendingly, "I advise you to confess your guilt, and everyone will suffer less." ”

"It's just a trick, although you can present these circumstantial evidence to the emperor." Jiang Wanxiu said lightly.

Su Shangqian nodded, "Don't worry, I will submit it." But these circumstantial evidence seem to be a bit scarce and not convincing. It's okay, then I'll continue the trial. Du Muyan is your cousin, she has been beaten fifty boards, but she just refuses to recruit, what should I do? Come on, keep calling me! ”

"Yes." Two officers were commanded.

Jiang Wanxiu's face was cold, "Su Shangqian, you dare!" ”

"Jiang Wanxiu, are you still the princess? What would I not dare. Beat me, beat me hard, until our princess is distressed and willing to confess and be lenient. Su Shangqian said coldly.

Jiang Wanxiu understood everything now.

Su Shangqian's drunkard didn't mean to drink, he used Du Muyan to force himself to confess.

Glancing at Zhao Fumeng standing next to him, Jiang Wanxiu knew that she had come up with this idea without thinking about it.

Only she knew so much about her own style.
