Volume 1 Wisdom Fighting the Capital Chapter 59, Silent to the Present

Ding Chunqiu saw Xu Ke staring at the lion card that was exactly the same as Wang Meng's old wear for a long time, thinking that he had evoked the past and felt sad in his heart. Leng Buding saw Xu Ke slap the table, anger suddenly appeared on his face, and he couldn't help but be startled, and hurriedly said: "Those four people are on duty in the edict prison, and the little one is going to call them over......"

"By the way, bring me that set of 'green character nine dozen'!" Xu Ke said as he looked at Ding Chunqiu's back.

"Yes, yes...... "Ding Chunqiu had already arrived at the door, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned, and then he answered and walked out......

About two moments later, Ding Chunqiu came back with four guards, and with them came in three men dressed in dark cyan eight-grade costumes.

As soon as the four guards entered the door, they fell to their knees and cried out as if they were mourning...... I've seen a hundred households!"

Ding Chunqiu clasped his fists with both hands and said: "Lord Baihu, these three people are the three leaders under the villain's mark, named Wang Dalong, Sun Ergou, and Zhao Sanmazi, the adults were on duty on the first day today, and the villain called them over......"

According to the official system of big cadres, the flag in Tsing Yi Wei is from the official rank of the seventh grade, under the jurisdiction of three big leaders, the official rank is from the eighth rank, each big leader is equipped with two small leaders, and the official rank is from the ninth rank.

When the three leaders heard the introduction of the flag, they fell down on one knee one after another, and each said:

"The little Wang Dalong, the small Sun Ergou, and the small Zhao Sanma have seen hundreds of adults!"

"You don't have pockmarks on your face, why do you call you 'Zhao San Mazi'?" Xu Ke asked Zhao Sanma.

"Back to my lord, the villain went to the guard on an errand on the first day, I don't know which guy who suffered a thousand knives, and called the villain's good name 'Zhao San Mazi'...... Later, everyone followed suit, and after a long time, the villain became accustomed to it......" Zhao Sanma replied.

Xu Baihu's signing room was not equipped with shocking wood. Xu Ke picked up the agarwood paperweight, hit the table with a "pop", and shouted:

From now on, the whole company will be commensurate with their names, and if they let the official listen to someone shouting out a sentence of 'Zhao San Mazi', the official will not be spared!"

The atmosphere in the room, which originally made Zhao Sanma's few words, has become much more relaxed and cheerful, but now, in vain, listening to Xu Baihu's slapping of the paperweight, the official authority is awe-inspiring, everyone is frightened, and hurriedly lowered their heads again, arched their hands, and replied: "Little obedience!"

"Get up......," Xu Ke waved his hand to the kneeling man below, and said.

The three leaders stood up and stood aside. That Zhao Sanma is even more grateful, he has been on an errand in Tsing Yi Wei for 16 years, and has been called "Zhao San Mazi" for 16 years, and has also been ridiculed by countless people. No matter how much he explained to people that he had never grown pockmarks, it was useless...... His own "Zhao Sanma", a dignified and upright name, seems to have been forgotten...... Today, someone finally corrected his name. This Zhao Sanma's gratitude to Xu Ke in his heart is not an exaggeration to describe it with a sentence of "making a promise with his body......

"Who let the four of you get up?......" Xu Ke said in a deep voice.

When the four guards heard the Lord Baihu call them up, their hearts were relieved, thinking that the matter was over, and as soon as they wanted to get up, they heard Baihu's words, and their faces were suddenly like ashes, and they were busy and knelt down, prostrate on the ground, and sifted chaff with their legs......

"What's your name and what do you usually do?" Xu Ke asked.

"Back to the adult, the little ...... The little one's name is Zhang Qian, and it's ...... He is a guard and is usually in charge of guarding prisoners......"

"Back to ...... Back to the adult, the little ...... The little one's name is Li ...... million, too...... It's also a guard, Ping...... Usually also negative...... Responsible for the custody of prisoners......"

"Back to the adult, the little one's name is Kong Xiaobing, yes...... is a captain who is usually in charge of custody and interrogation......"

"Lord Hui, the little one's name is Yang Ai, he is a small leader, usually in the edict prison, but according to the orders of the Lord of the Thousand Households, he is in charge of the interrogation......

The four of them replied to Xu Ke one by one.

"Hmph...... Are you guilty?!" Xu Ke said coldly. He secretly thought to himself that you Yang Ai, I remember that day, it was you holding a hammer in one hand and an iron nail in the other, looking at my feet, and your eyes were shining!

"Small...... The little one really doesn't know what crime he has committed?......" said each of the four.

"Okay, okay, don't you say it?...... Ding Datou, take out the 'green character nine dozen', start with 'hitting the toe', and use four thin nails...... Let them 'try it out'!"

"Okay!" Ding Chunqiu got the order, and took out the set of C-character No. 16 torture instruments from behind him. I saw that he slowly opened the big wooden box, picked up a bloodstained iron nail from it, picked up a hammer and knocked it, hit it, as if he was not satisfied, and then picked up another iron nail, knocked it again, hit it...... Just "concentrated" to pick and choose......

This crisp "jingling" sound, like a mourning bell in hell, struck straight into people's hearts and bone marrow...... The four people who knelt on the ground were terrified and trembling...... Two of them opened their mouths to beg for mercy, but their teeth chattered, and they were so frightened that they could not speak......

"Adults spare their lives! The little ones are convicted, the little ones are convicted...... The little one offended an adult last time...... The little one won't dare next time!" Kong Xiaobing prostrate on the ground and kept kowtowing, so that his scalp was already broken and bleeding......

"Lord Hyakunhe...... Although Lord Xu is a hundred households appointed by the emperor's order, he cannot, regardless of the merits, abuse lynching and torture us to extract confessions...... I am a dignified officer, with national laws and health regulations at the top, and I am the Bei'an Ping Division, and I also have Lord Sun presiding over the overall situation! How can you allow a hundred households to be so wild...... Master Sun must know that you are acting like this, and you will not be able to spare you......" At this time, only this Yang Ai, facing a large box of iron nail hammers, could still raise his neck and shout loudly.

"Hmph...... This official has the Kunwu sword given by the emperor himself, don't say that you are a small leader, even if you are a hundred households of five grades, this official can swing his sword and cut off his head at any time, no need to report it!" Xu Kesen Senran said. At this time, the tone and tone of his words actually had a taste of compassion like Sun Xun's, and as soon as these words came out, even Xu Ke himself was a little disbelieving......

With all that said, what scruples would he have in his heart, Ding Chunqiu! So he glanced at the three subordinates. Wang Dalong and Sun Ergou rushed forward like wolves and tigers, and put the arrogant Yang Ai on his back to the sky, and pressed him to the ground, one hugged Yang Ai's chest and back hands, and the other tightly stuck Yang Ai's legs, and removed his boots and socks by the way, revealing a pair of feet that were quite white and fat......

Zhao Sanma took a hammer and an iron nail from Ding Chunqiu's hand, and slowly approached Yang Ai's feet. He casually struck the iron nail with a hammer while smiling at Yang Ai's terrified eyes......

"Lord Xu! Lord Xu...... You can't do this, you can't do this......! In the small family, there is an eighty-year-old mother, as well as a wife and children...... And ......" Yang Ai howled like a pig. At this moment, he was held down by the two big leaders, and struggled with all his might, but where could he move......

"Seeing that you talk so much, I'll try it for a while, and then I'll let you try the rest of the 'Qingzi Nine Dozen'......" Xu Ke said lightly.

When Xu Ke first arrived in Tsing Yiwei, he didn't know the name of the "Nine Dozen Green Characters". Nading Chunqiu was a cadre, and when he heard this, he knew the mind of his boss, so he ordered:

"Zhao Sanma, you change a 'foot nail'...... Just let him taste the taste of 'ascending immortals'......"

Zhao Sanma aimed the slender iron nail at the tip of Yang Ai's big toe, in the direction of the toe bone, he was already waiting to drop the hammer, and after listening to Ding Chunqiu's instructions, he turned around and picked out a long nail with three barbs at the end from the big wooden box. I saw that at the end of the long nail, between the barbs, there were still some dark brown blood stains. From these stains of blood, it is vaguely imaginable how miserable it was when the person who was barbed with an iron nail was pulled out by a barbone......

When Yang Ai heard the words of "Dengxian", he was immediately frightened, and saw that Zhao Sanma actually took an "inverted foot nail", and for a while, he was already heartbroken, only listening to him, he didn't choose what to say, and shouted indiscriminately:

"Adults spare their lives, please spare their lives......! I don't know if the little one is an adult...... It's all that Sun Xun...... Sun Xun's command from that dog thief...... The little ones don't know that they are adults, and the little ones are convicted and convicted...... Please, adults, let the little ones go...... It's all Sun Xun's dog thief, the little one is just on order...... Adults let go of small ...... The little ones will be cows and horses in the next life, and they will also repay the adults......"

Everyone couldn't help but be stunned when they heard that Yang Ai dared to insult Sun Xun in front of the court. At this time, Sun Ergou suddenly let go of his hand, covered his nose, and scolded: "It stinks, it stinks...... This birdman has come out......"

The house was immediately filled with the smell of feces, and Sun Ergou and Wang Dalong had to let go of their hands, cover their noses and retreat to the sides. Zhao Sanma held the inverted foot nail and iron hammer in his hand, so he had to look at Xu Ke who was sitting in the Taishi chair, waiting for the orders of the hundred households......

With a "bang", Yang Ai was already lying on the ground, kowtowing his head heavily, and almost knocked himself unconscious. Yang Ai saw that the two big leaders were "forced back" by their own feces, and they were like drowning people suddenly grabbing a plank, and while kowtowing continuously, he cried:

"Adults spare their lives, adults spare their lives! The small ones don't know Mount Tai, and I hope that the adults will spare the little ones, and in the future, the little ones will make cows and horses for adults, and make cows and horses......

Although this Yang Ai is only a small leader from the ninth grade, he has been in charge of the interrogation of prisoners in the edict prison for a long time, and he often uses torture to extract confessions and torture into confessions. Just because Sun Xun of thousands of households has always liked to use "nine dozen green characters", he also followed to figure out how those nails could destroy the flesh and blood of prisoners more fiercely, and he also deliberately played in front of Sun Xun, and tortured those prisoners with iron nails and hammers to death...... How could he have imagined that today, he would suddenly become the flesh of a sword, and change from a torturer to a tortured person.

In Yang Ai's hands, I don't know how many people have personally driven all kinds of iron nails, especially the inverted foot nails, the kind of tragic and extremely painful state, he vividly and clearly in his heart. Now that he is going to suffer the punishment of inverted foot nails, and he has to beat his toes, ankles, knees, and buttocks all the way to the top of his head, tasting the realm of "ascending immortals", how can he still bear it......

"Alright...... Are you the one who abuses lynching?...... Tell you the truth, I have summoned you today not to punish you, but to warn you that the punishment is related to human life, and you must not be careless in the future...... However, all prisoners in prison, regardless of rank or status, are not allowed to be tortured arbitrarily from now on without the order of their own officials!

"Yes, yes...... The little one got it...... The little one got it...... The little ones must be careful in the future, but listen to the adults!" The four people who knelt down finally knew the intentions of the Lord Baihu, and when they thought of not having to suffer from the "nine dozen green characters", these people couldn't help but breathe a sigh in their hearts, and they were busy kowtowing to Xu Baihu who was sitting on the Taishi's chair to apologize......

"Let's go......" Xu Ke waved his hand and frowned secretly. At this moment, the smell in the room was getting stronger and stronger, but Yang Ai's trick "drowning raid" was something he never expected......

I don't want the four guards who are prostrate on the ground, the pawn chief, and the little leader, all of them are weak and weak at the moment, and they are trembling to themselves, and it is difficult to even get up. Xu Ke was helpless, so he had to order Ding Chunqiu and the three big leaders to put the four people out. When it was Yang Ai's turn, just because his clothes and pants were full of feces, the two big leaders had to endure the smell, wrap him tightly in Yang Ai's own clothes, and slowly carry him out. The two Dazuo carried Yang Ai and scolded him countless times......

Ding Chunqiu cleaned up the official rooms of the hundred households, and after the two chatted a few words, they also retired.

......

The copper kettle is dripping, the time is in a hurry, and in a blink of an eye, it has reached the moment of the unitary time. Yang Wenyuan had been waiting outside the gate of Tsing Yiwei early, and when he saw Xu Ke going out, he naturally stepped forward to be polite again, and then took Xu Ke along and walked straight to Deyue Tower......

Nadeyue Tower is located in Daozheng Fang, northeast of Chang'an City, and Yongxing Fang, where Tsing Yiwei is located, is quite close. Xu Ke and Yang Wenyuan only walked for half a moment, and they had already arrived in front of Deyue Tower.

At the end of the winter year, the sky is dark, the Chinese lights of the Deyue Tower are on, the diners are full, laughter and laughter, and the drum music is noisy...... It is already a festive image of the approaching first day. Xu Ke went upstairs with Yang Wenyuan, and the shopkeeper personally led the two of them to a private room "Dongyi Pavilion" at the east end of the second floor. When the shopkeeper saw Xu Ke, he felt a sense of déjà vu, but he didn't dare to recognize him, so he just smiled respectfully: "Several adults are here, please ...... the two."

"Dongyi Pavilion" is the largest private room in Deyue Tower. At this time, the room was already filled with more than a dozen officials. Sitting at the top is naturally the North Anhei Division Senhu Sun Xun. Sun Xun's left head sits Nan'an Pingsi Qianhu Pei Caibao. Pei Caibao's left head sits Luan Yi Si Qianhu Zhu Leyun. Sun Xun's right head sits Qingjing Division Qianhu Zhang Muye. Under Zhang Muye, there was an empty seat. On the rest of the seats, there are the three hundred households of the North Anhei Division and the chief hundred households of the other divisions......

Yang Wenyuan led Xu Ke to sit down under Zhang Muye. Sun Xun raised his glass and said: "Brother Xu, today is a good day for you to join my Tsing Yi Wei on the first day, and everyone will pick up the wind for you." You're late, and that's what you can do...... Three glasses of wine!"

Xu Ke bowed his hand and said: "Today, the thousands of households and the thousands of households are gracious, and they are grateful, and they are grateful for the disease...... When punished, you should drink!"

A person immediately ran next to him, and saw him holding a wine jug, with a respectful face, and poured wine for Xu Ke's wine glass with a humble smile on his face......

When Xu Ke saw this person, his face changed drastically, and he said angrily:

"It's you!"
