Chapter 567: True and False

Chang Ming's doctor is a little at a loss today, because the patient he is treating Liu Tai is a little abnormal.

How to say it, it is that the spirit is extremely excited, and the physique is extremely sensitive, which makes Lao Chang feel that he is a bit of a hero and useless.

In the past, there were also people who were arrested and sent to the Imperial Prison, and when they saw Lao Chang take out the torture tools, they were frightened and burst into tears, and took the initiative to confess, but Liutai was completely different.

When he faced the torture instrument, not only was he not afraid, but his eyes widened and he looked very curious. made Chang often think he was a tough guy, he was excited for a long time, and he talked to his assistant in the vernacular.

"See, don't underestimate the reader. This Liutai also served as the left waiter of the Criminal Department. Although the criminal department is not as good as our prison skills, there is still ruthlessness. ”

As a result, as soon as the first bamboo skewer was tied to the tip of the finger, Liutai jumped like a straight fish. The howl was deafening, and it scared the old man with trembling.

"Mom, it's murderous! Help, I can't live! It hurts me to death, ahhhhhhh ”

Lao Changxin said that the reaction was too big, but since the prisoner was about to confess, Lu Bing told him not to kill him, so he stopped.

"Tell me, how did you know about the Jiangnan Dragon and Phoenix Store?"

"I was told by Tan Tong! I was told by Tan Tong! He asked me to say to Xu Fan, I knew it first! ”

So Jin Yiwei went to arrest Tan Tong, Chang waited patiently for a long time, Tan Tong finally went to prison, and when he heard Liu Tai's confession, he turned over at that time.

"Fart, he told me! How could I have told him! ”

Lao Chang rubbed his hands excitedly: "This is so interesting." Then it's up to the two of you to tell the truth. ”

What followed was a brutal match, the players on both sides were Liu Tai and Tan Tong, the referee was Lao Chang, and the competition was who had harder bones.

Although Liu Tai howled like killing a pig, he insisted that Tan Tong told him. Tan Tong gritted his teeth, and he also insisted that it was Liu Tai who told him.

But Lao Chang is not in a hurry, because he knows that the truth will always come out. It doesn't really matter who has harder bones.

Because only those who lie can tell the truth, and those who do not lie will die of pain and cannot tell a reasonable truth.

For example, Liu Tai couldn't stand the pain anymore and began to bite indiscriminately, saying that he really knew it first.

But when he asked him who told him, he began to bite Xiao Feng or Zhang Tianci, or even Liu Ruyun, in exchange for more cruel torture.

When he couldn't resist it, he also began to bite indiscriminately, his brain was more sober than Liutai, and he at least knew how to say a few reliable, but he couldn't stand scrutiny at all.

The rally between the two lasted for three long hours, and the old man climaxed one after another, and his whole body collapsed.

In the end, Tan Tong finally couldn't stand it anymore, and he cried and confessed.

"Don't play, stop playing, I admit it, Liutai and I already knew it, and no one told anyone!

It was I who asked Liutai to go with me to tell the Xu family, and I asked him to tell the Xu family that he knew first! ”

Lu Bing slowly walked out of the cell next door and smiled.

"Why are you doing that? Knowing such a secret, you naturally want to sell it to the Xu family in exchange for benefits.

In this case, why don't you go up yourself, but pull up Liutai, and give the first credit to Liutai? ”

Tan Tong looked at Lu Bing timidly, and stopped talking, Lu Bing's face turned cold, and Lao Chang, who was smoking on the side, immediately stood up again.

Tan Tong shouted like a pig: "Don't move, don't move, I'll move, I'll move."

It was Yan Shifan who left a letter to tell us after his death, and he said that as long as you dare to treat his son badly, he will use it against you! ”

"Fart! Why am I bad for his son? I think of his son as my own, don't you see? Why do you still have to tell the Xu family? ”

Lu Bing's face turned pale: "Talk about the same, you lie and don't look at the place, this is an edict!" Are you kidding me? ”

Tan Tong was so painful that tears and snot flowed, and he cried desperately.

"I'm afraid to say at first, that's why! Yan Shifan not only told me, but he also told Liutai that there should be other trusted Yan Party officials.

It was Herrica's corruption that frightened both of us, and when we talked to each other, we realized that we both had this letter.

I instigated Liutai to find Xu Jie, and asked Xu Jie's help to protect us. I lied to him and told him that the first credit was given to him and that he confessed that he had told me.

You can also see that it is not normal for Liutai to be continuously demoted since the fall of the Yan Party, so I thought about taking advantage of him and hiding behind him.

Who knew that this guy actually bit back and bit me out! I'm telling the truth! ”

Lu Bing smiled cruelly: "I don't see it, Liutai still has this heart?" Lao Chang, then judge Liutai, I'll go sleep first! ”

When Liu Tai passed out countless times, Lu Bing asked Lao Chang to stop. At this time, Liutai became even more abnormal.

"Help, help, don't touch me, I tell you, I'm the left waiter of the Criminal Department, my godfather is Yan Song, if you dare to touch me, you will die!"

What? You don't know? You don't know I'm telling you! Although we haven't held a ceremony, I really regard Yan Song as a godfather in my heart!

Why don't you believe it? Ah, I see, you're not afraid of Yan Song, are you? Then I am Xiao Feng's godson! No, no, no, I'm Banzai's godson!

Yes, yes, I am Banzai's godson, if you dare to touch me, I will let Banzai kill you! Godfather, godfather help! ”

Lu Bing's face was pale, his brows were tightly locked, and a terrible thought came to his mind.

If what Tan Tong said is true, then Yan Shifan, a bastard, before he died, he didn't know how many Yan Party officials he had entrusted him.

Liutai and Tan Tong are indeed the core personnel of the Yan Party, but the core personnel of the Yan Party are not just the two of them.

Sometimes, the degree of trust is not the same as the level of official position, for example, a local prefect may be closer to Yan Shifan than a high-ranking official in the ministry.

But if you want to find out about this matter, I'm afraid that it won't be a matter of arresting one person or two people, is it really going to set off a bloody storm against Yan Party officials?

Jiajing didn't care about these things, it was an old thing, and since it was handed over to Lu Bing, he didn't have any reason to be worried.

So at this time, he was trying to take the first furnace of real cakes newly refined by Tao Zhongwen, and according to the old rules, Huang Jin naturally had to eat one first.

Huang Jin picked up a persimmon-sized cake with real food, and there was no turmoil in his heart, he had tried all the red lead pills, this thing was just a small meaning.

The taste is okay, with a strong medicinal fragrance, but it's too dry and chokes my throat. After eating, Huang Jin drank a cup of tea, waited for a while, and put the rest of the real cake in front of Jiajing.

Jiajing nodded slightly, ate one too, and took it with water. closed his eyes and recuperated, and had the foresight to let Huang Jin book a double flight at night.

Anything that has been eaten for a long time will have a certain degree of resistance, and since Tianyang Dan has removed the ingredients of the Golden Mantuo, its effect on Jiajing has become smaller and smaller.

The red lead pill was said by Xiao Feng to hurt Tianhe, and the fact that he was strangled by his neck did make Jiajing feel that it may not be very reliable to toss the girl.

But the real cake is an ancient recipe, and the effect is very good, even if the aphrodisiac is only its side effect, it is better than Tianyang Danniu. Jiajing still remembers the previous heroic style.

The sky darkened, and the two younger concubines walked into the West Garden. I didn't look for Concubine Kang and Concubine Lu Jing today, not because Jiajing lost interest in these two concubines, but because the timing was wrong.

Now the two concubines must be frantically persuading their son to give up Qiaoqiao, and pulling the list sent by the Zongren Mansion with their fingers, to find a daughter-in-law for their son as soon as possible.

If these two people are summoned at this time, there will be no need to do anything else at night, and even the shouting will be mixed with a lot of problems, and the effect is probably as follows.

"Ah...... Banzai...... Look at Yuwang's ...... Yes...... Imperial concubine...... Choose the eldest ...... in Li Lang Big...... Is the eldest daughter good? ”

So Jiajing was not interested when he thought about it, so he simply found two people who usually summoned less, who were younger, and who had good physical strength.

Huang Jin drank a cup of strong tea in the hut next to the Jingshe, ready to prepare for a protracted battle, but unexpectedly, after a few shouts from the next door, he died down.

After a while, there were whispers in Jiajing's house.

"Hooray, do you want to eat another loaf of bread?"

"Hmm...... Go and bring me another loaf of bread. ”

"Long live, concubine try again......"

"Hooray, do you want to eat another loaf of bread?"

"Hmm...... Go and get me another loaf of bread...... No, take two loaves of bread! ”

"Hooray, let her get out of the way, the concubine will try ......"

"Hooray, do you want to eat another loaf of bread?"

“…… I'm full...... Go back, useless thing! ”

There was the sound of broken teacups in the house, and after a while, the two concubines ran away with tears in their eyes.

Huang Jin deliberately waited for another stick of incense for another time or so before coming to Jiajing's house, coughing lightly, signaling that he was waiting.

There was no movement in the house, and after a while, Jiajing's muffled voice came.

"Huang Ban, bring me a pill of Tiansan Pill, I'm a little panicked......"

The news of the poor effect of the real cake soon reached Tao Zhongwen's ears, and he suddenly became nervous.

To tell the truth, he also ate a cake yesterday, and when he returned to the outer house to climb the peak, he also felt a little powerless. But he thought he was his age, and it was normal to do it once in a while.

But Jiajing is not old, if the real cake fails, it can only mean one thing, that is, there is something wrong with the pill itself.

Tao Zhongwen carefully checked his alchemy link, which would not go wrong with his eyes closed, and indeed he didn't find any problems.

Then Tao Zhongwen checked the remaining raw materials and found no problems. The blood clot was well preserved, fresh, and not induration and deterioration.

What went wrong? Tao Zhongwen was puzzled, so he had to refine another furnace and dedicate it to Jiajing.

Jiajing was more cautious this time, he didn't dare to fly twice, and only found a concubine who had studied with Yan Niang back then, but he was still defeated.

Fortunately, he learned smart this time, prepared two Tianyang Pills in advance, and when he found that his strength was not good, he ate it in time, and he barely turned defeat into victory.

Jiajing, who was very unhappy twice in a row, was very unhappy, he was not lustful to this extent, but reasonably speculated that there was something wrong with this real cake.

Think about it, if the side effects of a drug are suddenly gone, it is likely that the main effect of the drug will be gone.

But after summoning Tao Zhongwen, he discussed it repeatedly, but he didn't find out what the reason was. Jiajing thought about it and sent someone to call Xiao Feng.

Hearing that the real cake had no effect, Xiao Feng was also surprised: "Isn't the refining process wrong?" ”

Tao Zhongwen, who was standing next to him, coughed: "Impossible, Poor Dao has been repeatedly checked many times." ”

"Isn't there a difference in the excipients used?"

Tao Zhongwen shook his head: "There are a total of thirteen Dan materials, I have checked them one by one, they are all according to the old recipe, there is no problem!" ”

Xiao Feng frowned: "Could it be that the egg that preserved the blood clot was tampered with?" ”

Tao Zhongwen shook his head again and again: "The only small hole in the eggshell is well sealed with wax." What's more, these eggs are all kept in the Dan room, and the West Garden has its own guards.

And I opened an egg this morning and looked at it, and there was nothing in it except egg whites and blood clots. I cooked one for the guards to eat, and it wasn't toxic in any way. ”

The three of them stopped talking, and after a long time, Jiajing picked up the pen and wrote down the word "Han".

"Senior brother, you test it and see if you can test it, what is going on with this real cake suddenly failing?"

Xiao Feng looked at it for a while, and said with a wry smile: "Senior brother, whether the real cake is effective or not, I can't tell the question you asked." This shows that the real bread has nothing to do with you. ”

Jiajing was stunned: "How can this be?" I want to eat the real bread, I eat the real bread for the sake of cultivation, and whether the real bread is effective or not is naturally related to me. ”

Xiao Feng hesitated: "It stands to reason that this is the case, but now it really can't be measured, that can only show that whether the real cake is effective or not has nothing to do with the cultivation of senior brother." ”

Jiajing was silent, he had eaten the real cake for a long time, and it had nothing to do with cultivation? How could this be?

Tao Zhongwen glanced at Xiao Feng: "Xiao Zhenren, the real cake is an ancient recipe, the ancient recipe says that this thing nourishes longevity, replenishes qi and strengthens yang, but it is not fake." ”

Xiao Feng nodded: "I know this is an ancient recipe, so I have never said anything about Banzai eating Hanzhen cakes."

There are many things that can maintain longevity and replenish qi and aphrodisiac, which may not be related to cultivation. There are thousands of ways to cultivate the Tao, and they change from person to person.

I only know that whether or not the Banzai Cultivation can be achieved depends mainly on the luck of the country. Whether it is effective with real cakes, I don't know before today's word test.

But I originally thought that even if this thing can't help Banzai cultivate, at least it won't hurt the heavens and harmony, and since it can maintain health, Banzai can eat it if he wants.

The Liuwei Dihuang Pill can also maintain health, and it can also replenish qi and strengthen yang, but I haven't heard of any cultivator who has become an immortal by eating the Liuwei Dihuang Pill. ”

Jiajing nodded silently, feeling that what Xiao Feng said had some truth. However, even if it can't help the main cultivator with real bread, at least it is a blind tonic, and it suddenly fails, and it is unwilling if you don't check it out.

"Then who should ask about this matter to test the words?"

Xiao Feng looked at Tao Zhongwen: "Tao Zhenren, refining the pill is Tao Zhenren's job, and now that the pill is invalid, it is also Tao Zhenren's responsibility." If Tao Zhenren wants to measure words, I think it should be possible. ”

Jiajing nodded again and again, Tao Zhongwen thought about it, and felt that Xiao Feng's words were reasonable, so he picked up the pen.

Jiajing has already written, so he naturally won't write individual words with ingenuity, and he also wrote the word "contain" at the moment, and deliberately wrote it more ugly than Jiajing's.

"Xiao Zhenren, Poor Dao was ordered to refine the true cake, but now the medicinal effect is completely gone, Poor Dao wants to ask, what is the reason?"

Xiao Feng picked up the paper again and looked at the word "Han" carefully, this time looking at it attentively and very carefully.

"The word 'Han' on the 'today' under the 'mouth', 'today' is the 'order' under the fruitless, it can be seen that the real bread is invalid, but someone disobeys the order, Yin Fengyang disobeys!"

Tao Zhongwen's heart jumped, and he looked at Xiao Feng, but he didn't dare to speak. Jiajing closed his eyes slightly, and his face was expressionless.

"The raw material containing the real cake is the thing in the baby's mouth, the 'baby', the 'woman's baby', and the 'shell' under the 'present' is 'greed'.

The failure of the true bread is related to greed. 'Today' is the present, which corresponds to 'past', that is, the past. What worked once didn't work now.

"Today" is "man", and this is not another cause, but a man-made disaster. The reason why the people of the past were able to give orders, but now the people of the present have no orders.

It can be seen from this that the problem is not in Tao Zhenren, Tao Zhenren has always been alchemy for Long Live and has not changed people, not to mention the people of the past and the people of today. ”

Jiajing's face became a little ugly, and Tao Zhongwen had already understood, but now that his alchemy had failed, it was difficult to protect himself, and he didn't dare to open his mouth to say half a word for King Hui, so he could only do his best in a roundabout way.

"Xiao Zhenren, how to determine this matter? It's just speculation at the moment, and it's hard to know for sure. ”

Jiajing nodded, indicating that he asked the same question. Xiao Feng put down the piece of paper and smiled indifferently.

"The word 'contain' is originally hidden in the mouth, not swallowing or spitting, so it has the meaning of secret. For example, 'containing mysteries' and 'implicit but not revealing' are all secretive.

Therefore, if you want to find out about this matter, you need to act in secrecy and not make a big fuss. 'Contain' has the meaning of confidentiality, so it is necessary to prevent someone from ventilating the news. ”

Xiao Feng looked at Tao Zhongwen's face and sincerely persuaded Jiajing.

"Actually, it's okay if Senior Brother doesn't investigate this matter, since it is useless for Senior Brother to cultivate the Tao with real cakes, it is not good to make a fuss in order to investigate a useless matter."

Xiao Feng's last sentence completely dissipated Jiajing's suspicion of Xiao Feng. He was originally a little suspicious that this matter had something to do with Xiao Feng.

After all, after King Hui offended him, it hadn't been long since he left, and there was a problem with the real cake at this juncture, Xiao Feng must be happy.

However, Xiao Feng has repeatedly said that the true cake has nothing to do with cultivation, and it is not a matter if it is effective or ineffective, and it seems very frank to try to downplay the impact of this matter.

What's more, Jiajing and Tao Zhongwen both know that Xiao Feng's attainments in the art of Danding are not high, and Tao Zhongwen can't find out what the problem is, so what can it have to do with Xiao Feng at this time?

Thinking of this, Jiajing said lightly: "I know about this matter, so I don't have to worry about it." Potter, I know that you have a good relationship with King Hui, so don't give him a message. ”

Tao Zhongwen was suddenly frightened into a cold sweat: "Long live the words, the poor road will not dare to bully the king!" ”

After Xiao Feng and Tao Zhongwen left, Lu Bing entered the palace with a solemn face. After listening to Lu Bing's report, Jiajing's eyes became cold.

"If Yan Shifan really has this hand, then he will die innocently.

Bright and loose, everyone who has a close relationship with the Yan family and may be entrusted by Yan Shifan to the future is all closely watched and can do it at any time.

His son...... You're still young, so you can do it yourself! Check if he has had any contact with other people after the fall of the Yan Party! ”

Lu Bing's heart trembled and nodded silently. Jiajing thought about it and spoke again.

"Send someone to King Hui's fiefdom and secretly investigate how he collected raw materials containing real cakes!"
