Chapter 13: Interrogation, the Emperor's Anger

CHAPTER XIII

In the dim and cold cell, the faint candle flame shook weakly, as if a gust of wind could blow it out.

There was a foul smell in the surrounding area, and even though the prisoners had been cleaned during the day, it was still difficult to breathe.

Countless prisoners were held in each cell compartment, but most of them were imprisoned as thieves and thieves, while the criminals who committed murder and arson were held in the depths of the cells, in the dark.

At this time, everyone who broke into the palace at night was being handcuffed and imprisoned, all of them looking gloomy.

I saw a chair set up in the corridor outside their compartment, and the general of the Royal Forest Army was sitting leisurely, humming a little tune in his mouth.

Next to it is a torture rack, tied to a criminal who trespassed on the palace tonight. Two jailers took turns waiting with the guy who had been tortured.

I saw that the big man tied to the torture rack was stripped naked on his upper body, and the long whip with hooks and thorns swung down on his body, and then torn it away with force.

The whip was soaked in chili water, and countless tiny barbs stuck to the minced flesh, and the prisoner was howling in pain, bleeding profusely.

"Tell me, why did you trespass into the palace tonight? Why is there so much chaos in the Dome Palace?" He Jun got up from the chair slowly, admiring the big man who was tortured, and asked softly in a low voice.

The prisoner, who had been whipped and bruised all over his body, remained silent, and his whole body was in a piercing pain, as if he were in hell.

"Yo! Still a hard mouth!" The jailer with the whip spoke in tongues.

He Jun hooked his mouth and smiled: "Hmph, how hard your mouth and how hard your body bones, as long as you enter the cell, you will lose half your life if you don't die." Continue to be punished, let him see what is at stake, we don't lack this stuff here! Don't let people look down!"

Hearing this, the two jailers excitedly said, "Yes! My lord!"

Afterwards, the two carefully selected the torture tools from the tool rack, the skinning knife, the red-hot iron, and waited for the prisoners one by one, until the big man on the torture rack was dizzy with pain, leaving only a faint breath.

He Jun looked at the remaining few people in the compartment and sneered: "How many of you can see clearly?" If you are as hard-mouthed as him, it will not be such a simple punishment!"

Several people in the prison turned pale with fright, and they all looked at the big man who was tortured to the point that he was inhuman, and cold sweat flowed down his back.

One of them was about to speak, but was angrily shouted by the boss: "If you dare to say half a word, Lao Tzu will kill you now!" ”

The man was so frightened that he lost his voice, and his body suddenly shrank, saying that he was also dead, and if he didn't say it, he was also dead, damn it, isn't his life his life!?

He Jun smiled disdainfully: "You are already unable to protect yourself, and you still want to kill people under the nose of your own officials, there is simply no royal law!" ”

"Come on, pull out this rampant goods, and serve them well!"

Two more jailers came in from outside, opened the wooden door of the cell cubicle, pulled the old man out like a dead ox, removed the shackles of torture, and tied him to the torture rack.

I saw that the boss was still beaten with a long whip, and the crackling whip and the howl of pain resounded throughout the dimly lit cell, causing the mortals held outside to tremble.

He Jun looked at it leisurely: "Look at your tattered appearance, but you still have the same arrogance as Shicai?!" ”

Then he asked, "Tell me, who are you?" What is the intention of breaking into the palace at night? ”

The boss took a sip with blood foam: "Phew! A little official deserves to talk to your uncle! Why don't you soak your pee and shine on your dog's face! ”

He Jun was scolded so black that his face turned black, and he immediately took the guy, and then wore the boss's pipa bone, and by the way, the surrounding meridians were broken one by one.

"Ahh You...... Come to a sticky end! The howl of pain rang out again, deafening.

Now the boss's martial arts are all wasted, and if he survives in the future, he will only be a wasted person.

Such a punishment is simply murderous!

He Jun, who still couldn't get an answer, trembled with anger, these desperate guys, if they don't spit it out, what will he do to see the emperor!?

He Jun was completely ruthless and pulled out the woman in the cell compartment: "Such a beautiful woman like a flower and jade, must be able to say it clearly for your beauty and innocence, right?" ”

Zhao Lejiao was so frightened that her soul was not possessed, her beautiful appearance was something she wanted to be proud of, if she didn't even have it here, what would she do to live in the future? Not to mention innocence?

She immediately panicked: "My lord, I said!" I say! ”

"We are subordinates of He Shayuemen of King Kong Tower on the rivers and lakes, and this time we ......"

"Breaking into the palace at night is ...... In order to steal the map and key of the treasure of Tianning. I'm just doing things for people, and I'm asking the adults to let the little girl go! In the future, the little girl will definitely repay the adult's grace of not killing! ”

When the rest of the people saw Zhao Lejiao loosen their mouths and beg for mercy, they insulted him one after another, eager to eat him alive.

And He Jun learned that this matter was related to the treasure of Tianning, and he panicked in his heart at the moment.

Such thieves are stabbing Lou Zi!

……

At this time, the sky was slightly bright, and it was approaching the hour, just in time for the emperor to get up in the morning.

He Jun found a little eunuch and hurriedly sent a message to the chief eunuch, saying that there was an urgent matter to report to the emperor.

Half an hour later, in the study of the emperor's bedroom, He Jun knelt on the ground in fear and respectfully, and reported the theft of the Qiongluan Palace at night, but fortunately all the thieves were caught, and they were taken into the prison for torture and interrogation.

When the emperor heard that the Qiongluan Hall had been stolen and that all the objects in the palace had been destroyed, his eyes were immediately dark, and he didn't care about the cloak sent by the eunuch next to him, so he hurriedly took a sedan chair to the Qiongluan Palace.

When I entered the temple, I saw that it was!

I saw that the inside was chaotic and crooked, especially in the small room, all the mechanisms were destroyed, and even the rosewood heavy cabinet that he had spent a lot of money to carve was bitten and dilapidated by moths!

The emperor hurriedly checked the dark grid, only to see that the dark grid was empty, and there was not even a single hair in sight!

He was so angry that he was about to faint, but fortunately he was supported by the eunuch beside him so that he would not fall to the ground and fall unconscious.

"My map...... My Treasure...... Such thieves dare to be so presumptuous, I will kill the five clans! ”

The emperor ordered that the criminals would be interrogated in person.

He Jun was ordered to go to the prison, tied everyone in handcuffs and footcuffs, and escorted them to the palace one by one.

At that time, countless palace maids and eunuchs saw it and were so frightened that the three souls lost their seven souls.

Many people secretly inquired and learned that those criminals were thieves who broke into the Doluan Palace last night, and stole the emperor's treasured things, but fortunately General He caught them, but the emperor's treasures are still missing.

For a time, there was an uproar in the palace, shocking the six palaces.

Knowing that the emperor was so angry, the entire palace was panicked, and even did things a little more diligently and meticulously than before.

But there are also some people who think far, especially the officials, seeing that He Jun has made contributions, I am afraid that they will be promoted and reused in the future, and they are ready to make some connections, and there will be many helpers in their careers in the future.

The news of the theft of the Doluan Hall reached the Yunfei Palace.

At this time, Concubine Yun was leisurely drinking tea and eating snacks, and the rest of the people around her all retreated, leaving Congsi alone to eat melon seeds on Erlang's legs on the side.

Concubine Yun quipped: "You are so ruthless that you let a beautiful woman fall into prison!" ”

Spit out two melon seed shells from the silk, with a rogue ruffian look: "Beautiful as a flower? Are you beautiful? ”

Immediately, Concubine Yun blushed and said, "You just have to talk about it!" ”

After speaking, he turned sideways to drink tea and no longer paid attention to Congsi.

Congsi smiled helplessly and continued to knock on the melon seeds.

Hum! What kind of goods is Zhao Lejiao? It was already very polite to buy her into the Qinglou as a slave without personally abolishing her.

In addition, Shayuemen has always been at odds with Dongyan Building, so Zhao Lejiao didn't have the foresight to rob her of her work.

If she doesn't take the opportunity to retaliate back, she won't be called Congsi!
