Chapter 69: Extorting Confessions by Torture

Da Kui sat on the side of the hall and looked coldly at the three people kneeling in front of him.

It is still presided over by He Chongzhi, the prefect of Songjiang.

Songjiang Governor He Chongzhi Yang Sheng asked, "You wait for the three of you to report their names."

Brother Yong, Lao Wan, and Liuya all ignored it, and it looked like a hard bone.

Seeing that the three of them looked like dead pigs were not afraid of boiling water, He Chongzhi immediately ordered: "Come on, these three criminals refuse to confess, and drag me down to the hall with 20 canes each.

The two classes of officials in the hall were ordered, and the two of them escorted one of them, and dragged Brother Yong, Lao Wan, and Liuya down the hall like a little 'chicken'.

After the beating of the 20 spine canes, the team leader came to report: "My lord, the criminal has been punished with 20 spine canes and still does not speak.

He Chongzhi slapped the table and shouted, "Keep fighting." The leader of the squad ordered him to retreat from the hall.

After a while, he was beaten with 20 canes, and the head of the squad came again to report it. He Chongzhi had no plan, and turned to Da Kui and asked, "Master Zhang, how can the criminal refuse to confess?"

Da Kui smiled slightly: "If you don't confess, then continue to be tortured with canes, why bother asking me."

He Chongzhi sighed: "Master Zhang doesn't know, the spine cane is very heavy, if the fifty spine cane goes down, I'm afraid it will break the bones and tendons." He Chongzhi said again: "This time I have already beaten forty canes, and if I continue to beat him again, I am afraid that I will die. Speaking of this, He Chongzhi was a little embarrassed, but he still opened his mouth to beg: "I have heard that Lord Zhang was once the secretary of the Criminal Department. This...."

Da Kui smiled when he heard this: "At the beginning, this official took office in the Criminal Department, but he had no choice but to take office, and it was the favor of Emperor Taizu.

When He Chongzhi saw Da Kui say this, he couldn't ask for any more questions, so he had to order: "Bring in the three criminals."

When Brother Yong, Lao Wan, and Liuya were brought into the hall, they saw that the backs of the three were already bloodstained, and the skin was open with 'flesh'.

The spine cane is particularly harmful to the spine and internal organs of the tortured person, so the severity of the torturer's hand is very important.

The executioner was informed by the prefect He Chongzhi that he only injured his surface and did not hurt his muscles and bones.

"Who instigated you to come and commit murder? Do you know that murdering the court officials is a serious crime against the three clans. He Chongzhi is still upright and righteous, but these three murderers are all hanging their heads, and He Chongzhi's questioning is still unheard.

After that, He Chongzhi asked a few more words.These three people still ignored them.He Chongzhi was furious and moved the clamping punishment.And it was a large and small clamping punishment.(The small clamping punishment was the punishment on the fingers.The big clamping punishment was the punishment of his two 'legs'.),But the three of them gritted their teeth in pain and still didn't say a word.He Chongzhi had no choice but to announce his withdrawal from the court and retry tomorrow.

After retiring from the hall, He Chongzhi and Da Kui arrived in the back hall and sat down, and the servants served refreshments. He Chongzhi got up and came over and took a deep look: "Lord Zhang, this official really has no plan, and I hope Lord Zhang will teach me."

Da Kui hurriedly got up and helped He Chongzhi up, and said with a smile: "Why is Lord He like this, please sit down, please sit down."

After He Chongzhi sat down, Da Kui said in a deep voice: "According to the official's opinion, these three people must be detained separately and guarded by special personnel, first, to prevent him from colluding in confessions, and second, to prevent him from committing suicide." When He Chongzhi heard this, he hurriedly sent people to do it one by one.

Da Kui then said: "The art of war is cloudy: attacking the heart is the supreme thing; if you want the criminal to confess, you must make him happy and convinced, and you can get things done by investigating his weaknesses."

"Oh, Lord Zhang is really high-minded, Xiaguan admires and admires." He Chongzhi exclaimed repeatedly, and then said: "If it is an ordinary people, it only takes 20 boards to confess, but these Green Forest Party members and subordinates are helpless." After saying that, He Chongzhi stood up and said deeply towards Da Kui: "I am tired of Lord Zhang sitting in the court to try the case, and the lower officials will listen to the teachings."

This He Chongzhi is very much in the city, and he can actually put down his value to seek advice.Da Kui can't help but laugh a little when he sees He Chongzhi like this.This He Chongzhi can be regarded as a scheming.Knowing that handling these three green forest characters is bound to cause trouble.People can assassinate the county commander, and of course they can also assassinate the prefect.It can be seen that Mingzhe's move to protect himself is indeed the best policy.

Da Kui pretended to think for a moment, and then said, "In this case, the official will be more reluctant to make it difficult for him."

"Thank you, Master Zhang, for making it complete." He Chongzhi is again a thorough gesture, but his attitude is full of respect.

Da Kui said: "Since I am trying the case, I must arrange enough manpower."

He Chongzhi said without hesitation: "But the public servants of the prefectures and counties in Songjiang Prefecture are at the mercy of the adults."

"Oh, he, that's not necessary, it's just six people." Da Kui smiled mysteriously, which caused He Chongzhi to be suspicious in his heart, but He Chongzhi still found six officials according to his words.

Da Kui looked at the six officials standing in front of him, and immediately ordered: "You are six people in a shift, three people in a shift, each shift is on duty for six hours, you must be so ....... like this" Da Kui deliberately whispered to the foreman's officer, causing He Chongzhi to listen attentively, but he didn't hear a word, he was so anxious that he was anxious.

Next, Da Kui went to the cell to meet Brother Yong, Lao Wan, and Liuya, and met with only one sentence: "You are all good men in the green forest, Zhang does not dare to slack off, and now I have specially arranged for several public servants to serve you day and night. After Da Kui finished speaking, he walked away.

The three people in the prison were all separated and detained, and they all wore shackles. Da Kui's words were said by internal force. These three people all heard it clearly, but if the three of them wanted to talk, they had to shout and cut their throats. Brother Yong, Lao Wan, and Liuya couldn't speak to each other, but they understood what Da Kui meant. This was a torture day and night. But the three of them all made up their minds unanimously. No matter how much they suffered, they would not spit out half a word.

The good days have come, the three of them were taken to the wooden shackles, tied their hands, and hung up, but the hanging was not thorough, the toes still touched the ground a little, the rope that bound the hands was only the thickness of chopsticks, and it was very painful to strangle the wrists.

A good man is a good man, and even so, the three of them still gritted their teeth and did not let go, and there were two yacha in front of each of them, and the yacha set up tables, chairs, and benches in front of the 'door' of the three people's cells, drinking tea and chatting.

They stayed up like this until the evening, and the three of them were exhausted, and they were tortured with canes during the day, and the three of them were all in hot pain on their backs, and at the moment, they couldn't reach the world or the ground, and it could be said how uncomfortable and uncomfortable it was. In the middle of the night, the minds of the three of them were a little 'chaotic' and 'chaotic', and they couldn't care about the pain in their wrists.

The next day, the three of them were still silent, and the yacha did not ask questions, and the three of them were put down, and as soon as the rope was untied, the three of them immediately fell to the ground, and this time they did not tie their hands, but they tied their thumbs instead, and they were still hanging.

At night, the three of them were about to doze off again, but instead of stabbing them in the ribs, he took a stick of fire and water to beat the string that tied the thumbs of his hands. This kind of criminal law is famous, and it is called 'rat playing the kite'. This is what Da Kui learned when he was in the criminal department.

After staying up all night, the three of them are really hard bones, still gritting their teeth and holding on.

On the third day, Da Kui ordered someone to prepare prison clothes and send them to the cell, claiming that the clothes of the three men were worn out and needed to be replaced.

The moment they changed their clothes, it was terrible to see, the three of them had been tortured with a cane, and the 'stick' wound on their backs had just scabbed over after three days, and they were stuck to their coats. When the yacha undressed them, he actually deliberately tore their clothes off their backs, and for a time they were torn bloody, which made people a little dizzy to see them. The three of them had the same wound on their backs, and the skin was rotten. The yacha ignored them, but said, "Lord Zhang ordered you to give you 'medicine'. You will thank Mr. Zhang later." As he spoke, he started to use the medicine, but the medicine was salt water.

The terrible howls of the three of them suddenly came from the silent cell.When the salt water smeared the wounds.Brother Yong, Lao Wan, and Liuya, the three of them were all trembling in pain.They didn't even have the strength to cry out in pain.Before the three of them could catch their breath, they tied their thumbs and fell on the beam.

The three of them stayed up until three o'clock in the afternoon, and Lao Wan couldn't bear it anymore, so he had to say to him: "I'm tired of the officer, I want to see Master Zhang." His voice was small, but it was heard by the stray arrows in the next room.

I only heard Liuya scolding in the other room: "Lao Wan, you bastard, you dare to release water, the hall master will definitely smash your plate."

"I can't stand it, let me die." Lao Wan suddenly struggled hysterically, and the thumbs of both hands were suddenly strangled and bleeding like a torrent.

At this time, Da Kui's voice sounded coldly outside the prison door: "Bring him out."

The voice of the stray arrow behind him roared like a ghost's scream: "Lao Wan, don't forget the oath I made at the beginning.

The voice did not fall.The yacha guarding the stray arrow immediately picked up the water and fire stick and 'pumped' it on the mouth of the stray arrow.The stray arrow had not eaten or eaten for three days.This stick directly beat the stray arrow and vomited more than once.But what he spit out was yellow water bile.。
