Chapter 18: Kou Huairen was wronged

After Zhao Xin announced this, he left the imperial garden with the empress.

The surviving concubines who were safe and sound, and when the emperor and queen left, they found that their feet had softened with fright, and their clothes were soaked with cold sweat.

Tonight, it's like going to hell.

At night, Zhao Xin naturally stayed in Changle Palace.

The two of them "tasted" for the first time, and a bit of fish and water is naturally not inevitable.

The next day, it wasn't until the third pole of the day that Zhao Xin woke up leisurely.

As for the early dynasty or something, it doesn't matter whether a puppet emperor goes or not.

After Zhao Xin enjoyed breakfast with Su Qingyu, he returned to his palace.

The power is still falling, and at this time, it is not the time to immerse yourself in the gentle country.

Yesterday's incident of Yong'an Palace and the Imperial Garden, the entire palace was in the limelight.

From the concubines to the palace people, they were all afraid of the emperor's thunderous methods, and they didn't dare to think about him anymore.

After those authoritarian eunuchs were cleaned up, the West Factory also arranged its own manpower in time.

The palace was completely controlled by Zhao Xin.

The harem dealt with many concubines, and the authority to manage the six palaces was handed over to the queen, and her position as queen was officially worthy of her name.

Taiji Palace, Qinzheng Palace.

Zhao Xin was discussing various matters with Liu Muzhi, and the secret agent of the West Factory suddenly came to report, saying that the king of Beihai had rebelled.

Zhao Xin listened, but his heart was not much shocked.

Just sighed, it's finally here!

At this moment, the rebellion of the Seven Kings was officially gathered.

Anyway, he can't interfere in this matter now, and the rebellion will be handled by Cui Cen and Nancang.

In the original book, since the faint monarch was able to survive the rebellion of the seven kings, it shows that the seven forces that rebelled against him are not a big threat.

Nan Cang was able to suppress it, which also proved from the side that his ability is indeed very strong.

In his eyes, this rebellion may just be a small fight.

What Zhao Xin cares about is whether there is a possibility that he can get a piece of the pie in the blood that the Cui family put out troops to suppress the rebellion in order for Nancang to send troops to suppress the rebellion.

The spy who knelt on one knee said again, "Your Majesty, Dongchang set up a name, colluded with Cui Cen, and framed Zhongliang. The person who was falsely accused was Kou Huairen, the former court lieutenant. ”

Kou Huairen?

Zhao Xin only felt that this name was very familiar when he heard it, and then suddenly remembered who this was.

Kou Huairen is a very important character in the original work.

This man is jealous and hateful, and he is loyal.

As a court lieutenant in charge of justice, he is even more able to make good decisions.

The iron mask is selfless, and he judges cases like a god, as if he is the incarnation of Bao Qingtian.

Because of his strict style of impartial law enforcement, although he has won high praise from the people, he has offended many people in the officialdom.

Especially the Cui family.

Cui Cen wanted to get rid of him, so he teamed up with Wang Jin to frame him.

As a result, Kou Huairen was dismissed from his post and unjustly imprisoned.

The position of the lieutenant of the Jiuqing court also fell into the hands of Cui Cen's eldest son, Cui Zhihan.

In the original work, Nancang and Kou Huairen even made friends.

Because Nancang came to the rescue, Kou Huairen was not framed to death by the traitor, and was only sentenced to exile to the frontier.

On the road to exile, Kou Huairen was rescued by the protagonist and became his right-hand man, giving advice, comparable to Liu Zhixiao Zhang.

Zhao Xin didn't expect that this time period was when Kou Huairen was slandered and suffered from prison.

He was worried that he didn't have a chance to deal with Wang Jin, and now Kou Huairen's matter was not just an opportunity.

Besides, with such a good minister, how could Zhao Xin give up to the protagonist, the future enemy?

Zhao Xin was angry and said to Liu Muzhi in a deep voice: "Kou Huairen, I have heard his name for a long time, and he is a capable minister who is upright and upright.

I didn't expect to be framed by a traitor!

I want to take it out and avenge it!"

Zhao Xin's tone seemed to be firm, but in fact, there was an inquiring meaning in his words.

Liu Muzhi's brows furrowed slightly, but he turned to soothe and nodded slightly.

With Liu Muzhi's affirmation, Zhao Xinzhong was determined and hurriedly summoned Li Cunxiao and ordered him to take someone with him to pick up people from the Imperial Prison of the Tingwei Mansion.

......

Tingwei's Mansion.

In the prison, the light is dim, damp and cold.

In the depths of the prison, there was a faint sound of whipping and scolding.

In the torture room, various torture instruments were placed on the shelves on both sides, each of which was stained with coagulated and blackened blood.

A tall and thin middle-aged man was hung from a wooden frame.

The jailer whipped the whip so hard that it was covered with barbs, and when he whipped it down, he pulled out the flesh of the belt, and the pain was terrible.

The sound of the whip had been stained red with blood, and the ragged clothes of the tortured man were also soaked red with blood.

The smell of blood permeated the torture chamber.

Tingwei Zuoping Ding Guangjian crossed Erlang's legs, leisurely sipping melon seeds, admiring the torture being carried out in front of him.

The man hanging on the torture rack was in rags, covered with hideous scars, and it was shocking.

Ding Guangjian saw that he was quiet and silent, and shouted: "Wake him up for me and then continue to fight!"

They all passed out, what is the point of being tortured?

A scoop of cold salt water was poured mercilessly, and a sharp pain came from the wound, which stimulated the unconscious person to wake up.

Ding Guangjian smiled gloomily, looking proudly at Kou Huairen, who was wheezing in pain, full of mockery.

"Lord Kou, this tastes good, doesn't it?

Hmph, in the past, you were high, what a majestic way it was!

Now that feng shui is taking turns, adults are afraid that they don't expect that they have today, right?

Master, you better confess your sins quickly, and suffer less, don't you?

You are my former superior, and it really disturbs me to see you suffering. ”

Ding Guangjian's mouth was uneasy when he said it, but his eyes were full of schadenfreude.

Kou Huairen raised his head with difficulty, his messy hair covering his pale face, revealing only a pair of cold and mocking eyes between his hair.

"Phew! treacherous lackey...... You can't die well!"

This Ding Guangjian was his subordinate who was single-handedly raised, and because he trusted him, he let him take charge of the edict.

Kou Huairen thought that he treated him well, but he never thought that he would betray him and help the traitor Cui Cen and the eunuch Wang Jin frame him.

Ding Guangjian's face shook, he got up and threw the melon seeds in his hand to the ground, his eyes were ruthless, and his face was hideous.

With a wave of his hand, the whipped jailer stepped back and slowly walked to the burning charcoal basin.

picked up the iron that had been baked to crimson, and shook it in front of Kou Huairen.

Ding Guangjian sneered, "It seems that Master Kou still can't recognize the form! It's all at this time, and he still doesn't admit his guilt?"

"My subordinates give you a slow taste?"

Kou Huairen spat on him a mouthful of blood.

Ding Guangjian was annoyed in his heart, his face was calm, and he resolutely poked the iron soldering at Kou Huairen's chest.

"Ah——!h

Screams of pain echoed through the torture chamber.

The more painful the scream, the faster Ding Guangjian laughed.

"Master Kou, how does this feel?"

"Aha-"

......

The Gate of Prison.

The jailer on duty was chatting when he suddenly heard the loud singing of "The Emperor has arrived".

Just when everyone thought that they were hallucinating, a group of black-armored soldiers surrounded Zhao Xin, who was dressed in dragon robes, and appeared in everyone's field of vision.

Only then did the jailers react and hurriedly knelt down and saluted.

"Take me to see Kou Huairen!" Zhao Xin said in a deep voice.

These jailers had never seen the emperor, and at the moment, under the power of Hehelong, they had only instinctive obedience.

"Yes, yes...... Kou Huairen in the torture room...... He is being interrogated by Lord Ding. ”

When Zhao Xin heard this, his face instantly turned cold.

The jailer who led the way couldn't help but shrink back, and suddenly didn't dare to say anything more, and quickened his pace to lead the way.

As soon as he arrived outside the torture cell, he heard a terrible and painful scream coming from inside.

Zhao Xin walked quickly.

The moment he turned into the torture room, he saw the bloody prisoner on the torture rack.
