Chapter 121
"I don't know, I have to continue to check."
Luo Huaiqing shook his head.
"Could it be Miss Liang?"
Hua Zhao thought of Liang Yinwan, since this matter was done by Liang Pingjing, as his favorite daughter, is it possible that Liang Yinwan told her secret?
"Probably, but I can't speculate until I find out."
Luo Huaiqing also thought that it was Liang Yinwan, but it was quickly denied.
Liang Yinwan has an arrogant temperament and can be committed to Xu Zexuan, maybe it is for the position of the third princess, Liang Pingjing's move is to help her get the position she wants, and she has no reason to remind him.
"Alright then......"
Hua Zhao thought sullenly.
"Luo Huaiqing, can I also interrogate those assassins?"
Hua Zhao thought about it for a long time and didn't come up with it, so she simply didn't want to, since the emperor told Luo Huaiqing about this matter, he would naturally let him be in charge of this matter, and Luo Huaiqing would naturally investigate this matter, she just needed to wait for the results.
"Huh? What are you going to do? ”
When Luo Huaiqing heard her words, she only felt a little inexplicable.
These people have been accused of assassinating the princess, not to mention that they are dead soldiers who have been raised, it is not easy to try them, I am afraid that they will be executed, she is a young lady, what is she going to do in that kind of place?
"Those people are chasing me, I'll see what happened to them?"
The thought that he had just been chased around by those people made Hua Zhao grit his teeth angrily.
She Hua Zhao has never been a person who holds grudges, and she usually avenges herself on the spot when she has a grudge.
"Yes."
Luo Huaiqing nodded, signaled the driver who was driving to turn the car around and go to the government.
After arriving at the official mansion, Luo Huaiqing jumped out of the carriage and was going to go directly inside, but thinking that Hua Zhao twisted his foot, he turned around and returned to the side of the carriage, helping Hua Zhao to step on the stool and get out of the carriage.
"Lord Zuo Xiang is here in person, and Weichen only feels that this official mansion is shining......"
Luo Huaiqing has a noble status, as soon as he heard that he was coming, the county commander stood at the door early and waited, and when he saw Luo Huaiqing coming, he immediately greeted him.
"Excuse me, take the official to the dungeon, those thieves assassinated the six princesses, Your Majesty ordered the official to be in charge of this matter, this matter is very important, the official will go to interrogate the group of assassins now."
Luo Huaiqing stood up straight, held the shelf, and said coldly.
"Yes, yes, my lord will ask Weichen to ......"
The county commander looked at Luo Huaiqing's cold appearance, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and took Luo Huaiqing to the dungeon where the group of assassins was held.
The assassination of Xu Jingwan by this group of assassins was naturally a felony, and they were held in a solitary confinement cell, and now they were sitting on the ground with shackles on their hands and feet, waiting to fall.
Because of the jaw removed, now they all have their mouths open, but they can't make any sound.
"Your Excellency, please ...... here."
The county magistrate personally took Luo Huaiqing to a small room, because they were afraid of Hua Zhao's foot injury, they walked a little slowly.
After arriving at that small room, Hua Zhao was completely shocked.
The room was not large, and some torture instruments were hung on the walls around it, and in the middle was a cross stake, and there were blood stains under the cross, which seemed to be used to tie up the prisoners.
Hua Zhao got closer, and then he saw that the braids hanging on the wall were all with barbs, the barbs were curly, and some of the barbs still had human flesh hanging on them.
Hua Zhao shuddered when he saw it, these heavy punishments, even if that person is steel and iron, he will have to recruit this matter.
Hua Zhao stood for too long, only felt a faint pain in his feet, and couldn't help but snort.
"Confused, don't you see that this girl is still standing, why don't you go and move a chair?"
Luo Huaiqing naturally sat down on the chair and raised his hand to signal the stone to bring the assassins over.
The county magistrate was about to say good things to Luo Huaiqing when he heard Hua Zhao's voice.
He looked sideways, whether it was the clothes Hua Zhao was wearing, or the bearing of her body, it showed that she was not an ordinary woman, not to mention that this person still came with Luo Huaiqing, and her identity was not simple, so he quickly reprimanded the person next to him, and then asked him to move a chair for Hua Zhao to sit on.
When the man returned, Stone had already arrived with a few Assassins.
"Childe, will the interrogation start now?"
Stone asked respectfully.
"Well, let's start with him."
Luo Huaiqing nodded, and pointed to an assassin who was kneeling on the ground.
He seemed to remember that it was this man who was going to kill Su Wan at that time.
"Yes."
Shi straightened up and took the black-clothed man pointed at by Luo Huaiqing, and he tied the cross.
"Reset his chin."
Luo Huaiqing looked at the man in black with a mouth open, and half of his saliva flowed down his face, he felt a wave of nausea, and motioned for the stone to take his chin back.
"Yes."
The stone's hand reached into the man's chin, and with a slight force, he took the man's chin back.
"Who instructed you to assassinate the Six Princesses?"
Luo Huaiqing looked at him with an indifferent expression.
"No one commands me, and a man like you is not worthy to interrogate me."
The assassin knew that if he failed to act, even if he returned, he would not escape death, and it was better to carry it like this, at least to keep his family safe.
"Really?" The corners of Luo Huaiqing's mouth twitched into a sneer, "Stone, give him a taste of whipping, let's give him twenty lashes first." ”
"Yes."
The stone answered, turned and took the whip that had been hung on the wall, flicked a whip in his hand, and then whipped it towards the Assassin.
"Ahh
The next moment, a roar came out of the assassin's mouth, and with the whip being drawn, Hua Zhao could clearly see that the whip had brought a mist of blood out of him.
One whip was not over, the stone was full of strength, and according to Luo Huaiqing's instructions, he gave him twenty whips before stopping.
Luo Huaiqing's afterglow glanced at Hua Zhao, seeing that she was just pale and nothing serious, and then turned back to look at the assassin.
"What, is this official worthy now?"
Luo Huaiqing chuckled, but this laugh made the assassin struggle on the cross.
"You people, who keep saying that they are honest, are in fact just lackeys driven by power, how can people like you deserve to interrogate me? I tell you, you are here to judge me now, and sooner or later, you too will be tied to this cross, and you will be tormented! ”
The Assassin spat out a mouthful of blood, and kept uttering the harsh words in his mouth.
"It seems that this punishment is not enough, stone, it is better to reward him with some salt water."
Luo Huaiqing didn't get angry when he heard this, he just put down the teacup in his hand and asked Shi Shi to get the salt water.
"Yes."
Listening to what the assassin said to Luo Huaiqing, Shi also felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, and after taking the salt water, he didn't hesitate at all, and directly poured it on the assassin.
