Chapter Seventy-Five: The Abandoned Son
Li Si had been in the mansion for a few days, and he was so angry that he was a little panicked.
He was confident that Tingwei would not be able to find any evidence of his conspiracy with Li Chang, and that he would not be implicated in the banditry.
The only variable is in Li Chang.
Once Li Chang couldn't stand the interrogation, he recruited everything.
Even if he can insist that it is a false accusation, he will not be convicted without real evidence.
But Your Majesty, Your Majesty may not believe it.
Even if it is not punished, the trust in the future can be regarded as the end.
At present, Hu Hai has not been able to gain a foothold in the court, and Li Si cannot lose the trust of the first emperor in him.
Li Si's eyes were gloomy, and he smashed the chess pieces in his palm.
"Your Excellency."
Henchmen come.
"Xiang Qiming's side, how's it going?"
"According to our people, Li Chang has not spoken for the time being, and is still making the last struggle."
"Hmph, he's rare to be smart."
Li Si patted all the powder on his body, got up and walked to the table.
"What do you mean?"
"He's waiting."
Li Si picked up a roll of bamboo slips and looked through it.
"What are you waiting for?"
"Wait for the official to save him."
Confidant: "Are you still saved, my lord?" ”
"Hmph." Li Si stared at him sideways, his eyes full of coldness.
"It's better for a disobedient dog to be slaughtered."
The henchman didn't dare to look directly, and lowered his head and said:
"Do you want to go down......" After speaking, he made a motion to wipe his neck.
"No, that's too conspicuous."
Li Si tapped his palm with a bamboo slip, and the ground was extremely regular.
There was a slight sound of bamboo scraping, which made people feel a little scary.
"You go and get something, and find a way to pass it to the prison to show Li Chang."
If Li Chang wants to threaten him secretly, he must be prepared to become an outcast.
Li Chang didn't say anything, he was telling him Li Si.
"If you save me, I will never open my mouth."
"If you are not moved, I will tell you everything."
Prime Minister Li Si has never been threatened.
Li Chang fought silently, waiting for an opportunity.
Lees will let him, willingly, never open his mouth.
In the lobby of Tingwei, Tingwei sits in the main seat, and Zongzheng and Zhongzhong Cheng sit on both sides.
The three of them looked solemn and their eyes were awe-inspiring, like three emotionless statues.
Li Chang was tied hand and foot, and knelt in the center in coarse cloth prison clothes.
Days of confinement and interrogation had left him withered and his hair disheveled.
I don't see the brilliance of the original superintendent Shi Daren.
Witnesses Zhang Chengshou, Gan Ji, Bai Fu and others stood aside.
The first two were indifferent, and Bai Fu was still kicking and restless, his eyes wandering.
Prior to this, Gan Ji and others recounted their testimony in front of Li Chang.
During this period, Li Chang kept hanging his head, and his black mouth was tightly pursed.
I couldn't tell what he was thinking, and he was even more vocal from beginning to end.
Since he was imprisoned, except for the first few days, Li Chang has been clamoring to see His Majesty.
It was only after the trial of the three secretaries that he understood that His Majesty had already knew.
After that, he did not say a word, not a word.
Let Xiang Qiming, who has a lot of means, coerce, seduc, and even torture.
His mouth was as if he had been welded to death, and he was silent.
This move gave Sanqing a big headache, so he had to increase the progress of the investigation in Chencang and Yongxian.
"Li Chang, your crimes are heinous, even if you don't say a word, you can't escape the death penalty."
"It's better to honestly confess everything, including all the people who conspired with you."
"Maybe you can save your relatives from the punishment of raiding your family, and you can also leave yourself a decent way to die."
Xiang Qiming's face was dark, and his threat was fully displayed.
Li Chang's face didn't rise, he only stared at his own toes, and didn't say a word.
"Li Chang, you don't have to delay!"
Zhongcheng has a violent temper, and he was immediately so angry that he shot the case and scolded.
Gan Ji got the permission of Tingwei, walked straight to Li Chang, and said coldly at him:
"Li Chang, who are you waiting for if you don't speak?"
"You don't think that there is still someone who can keep you."
Seeing Gan Ji in front of him, Li Chang suddenly raised his head and laughed wildly.
"Hahahaha......"
The resentment in his eyes was full of resentment, and then he took a vicious bite.
"Bah-"
"You're Fusu's henchman, hahaha, I can't live, so what."
"The Fusu prince you admire is not broken bones, and there is no corpse left!"
"Hahaha......"
He hated Li Si, and took advantage of it and discarded it.
But this is a big crime of copying the family, and only Li Si has the ability to turn around.
Even for the sake of the same clan, Li Si couldn't stand by in order not to affect his relatives.
So he couldn't say anything, he was waiting, waiting for Lees to give him an answer.
He wants to persecute Li Si and keep his family.
Compared to Li Si's exploitation, Fusu is obviously more hateful.
Raising food is raising food, and if you have to meddle in things, you will cut off his financial route, and you will also have a sharp blade around his neck.
Even if he doesn't do anything to Fusu, waiting for Fusu to investigate and deal with the evidence, he will also end up like this.
This time, he just lost the bet.
He slanted his embarrassed head and smiled sheepishly:
"If you can pull Fusu Gongzi down to Huangquan to accompany me, my Li Chang is worth it."
"Did you say yes, Gan Guard!"
The fists on both sides of Gan Jili were clenched tightly, and anger burst out in his eyes.
Rao knew that Gongzi was fine, but he was still very angry by the words of this shameless villain.
Gan Ji hurriedly stepped forward, wanting to grab Li Chang's collar.
When he was halfway there, he was quickly stopped by Zhang Chengshou.
Zhang Chengshou silently gave him a look, and Gan Ji turned around angrily and stood on the side.
Li Chang was already crazy at this time, and the sharp laughter was extremely uncomfortable to hear.
Everyone present was indignant.
Xiang Qiming saw that he really didn't want to say anything, so he had to say sharply:
"Someone, torture!"
The iron needle pierced the nails, the ten fingers connected the heart, and suddenly the hall sounded like Li Chang killing a pig.
Cold sweat and blood suddenly flowed, and when he got to the back, Li Chang could only lie on the ground and hum like a dead dog.
Xiang Qiming's methods have always been cruel, and if he can't be tempted, he will definitely be punished.
Eighteen forms of torture can be repeated on criminals.
Very few prisoners survived three days in his hands.
Master Zongzheng, who has always been idle, has never seen such a bloody scene, and he didn't dare to look at it carefully with his sleeves at that time.
After the heavy punishment, Ting Wei used castor beans to wake Li Chang up.
Ask again, use again, as long as people can't die, it's endless torture.
By the time Li Cang was finally dragged down, he couldn't make a sound.
Can only be squeezed out of the throat "ho...... Ho ......" sound.
Ting Wei commanded with a blank face:
"Take care of him, and if he dies, I'll ask you."
Gan Ji wanted to speak and stopped, but when he saw that there were many people, he endured it.
Xiang Qiming waited for Zong Zheng and Zhongcheng to leave before asking:
"What did the guards want to say?"
Gan Ji stepped forward, "The villain has the audacity to trespass, thinking that this Li Chang has always kept silent regardless of his family's involvement." ”
"He must be sure that someone can keep his kinship for him."
"The villain begs Lord Tingwei to be strictly guarded recently, and no one is allowed to visit."
