Chapter 144: The King of Insects: Brutal Execution of Chang'an

With the sound of rain, the carriage came to Hepingfang.

The second yard beside the city wall in the southwest corner, and it is also the most remote place in Chang'an City. It is no different from the suburbs. It has also marked a cross street, but this cross street is only this one. Unlike other yards, it is divided into four small cross streets, and there is not even a wall or a gate.

There are some woods, vegetable fields, and crop fields, and Li Chengqian's favorite place to steal cows back then.

In the entire Ruoda Hepingfang, except Nongmo, there are only Zhuangyan Temple and Zongchi Temple.

The carriage turned along the street and turned to a small path southwest again. When it rained, the road became a little muddy. The carriage slowed down, but gradually there was no people. When we arrived in front of a small bamboo forest, there was a small pond and two rows of thatched huts. The carriage stopped.

Guan Fu, He Guangzhen, Niu Jin and others carried the two people into the thatched hut and said to a thirty-year-old man: "Zhou Dushi, I'll leave it to you."

He was brought by Di Renjie and Guan Fu. His main responsibility was to follow people, find ways to catch them, and then record the confession. This is an important section. This group of people must be in one place, easy to manage in one place, and the chance of exposure is high. And in one place, if there is anything, Xu Jingzong can also silence him in time.

There are also people who mobilize personnel. It is impossible to mobilize many soldiers on the positions of the Yang father and son, but it is still possible to mobilize dozens of confidants to capture these murderers. But it is impossible to force the arrest. This is not to go to another farm, even if it is an imperial farm, or a confidant, he will probably hesitate when he goes to Xu Jingzong's farm. Moreover, it is not in line with the system. Originally, Xu Jingzong was the confidant of the two priests, and finally knocked down Xu Jingzong. The two priests also resented these people and also knocked down himself.

Therefore, it is necessary to have confessions first. With confessions and arrest criminals, it is unbiased. Besides, Di Renjie himself is the head of the Dali Temple. It is not possible to arrest Xu Jingzong, and arrest some assassins is within the scope of his authority. With confessions, it is easier for the Yang father and son to mobilize people. They can even discuss with Dai Zhide, Zhang Wenguan and others. No matter what, although they did not do their best for the prince, they did not hate the prince and had a great favor. They were also ministers of the Qing Dynasty.

But this confession is not easy. This is the dead soldier raised by Xu Jingzong. Since he dared to assassinate the prince, he was all a group of desperate people. Don’t look at Niu Jin and these two people in the city. This is in the city. If he is outside the city, he may not have the courage to go up. Moreover, as long as he calls, no matter how much he is to forgive his crimes, he will be dead.

It is difficult to take out the confession, but it must be taken out in a very short time. These two people came to the city for fun and did not return tonight. It is reasonable that they might spend the night at the Fantou family, but if they don't come back tomorrow morning, it is estimated that the people in the village may immediately become suspicious. They need to prepare, so they must get the confession before the third update.

If it were any of Guan Heniu and the other three, they would not be sure of this difficulty.

But along the way, this Zhoudu incident was a swearing moment, but I didn’t know where the confidence came from.

Zhou Xing said: "Please pour cold water on them to wake them up."

After saying that, he moved out several large boxes he brought from Luoyang.

"Zhao Quaner" and the other two woke up. Seeing the surrounding environment and the people in front of them, they asked in surprise: "Who are you?"

Zhou Xing opened the box and said, "They are the prison chiefs and prison guards of Dali Temple, and they are the capital of the Shangshu Province."

"What do you mean?"

"What do you mean? You know what you want. Come on, let me show you some good things first. This knife was specially asked by someone from Dongdu to use steelmaking. It is extremely sharp. Of course, it is not used to kill people. This is a torture instrument that someone associated with when he saw that Fu Jian, the Lord of the Former Qin Dynasty, liked to sing and dance with a skinned prisoner for him."

Just the first thing to say, "Zhao Quaner" and the other two began to twist and shout for help, but in this remote place, it was a rainy night, who could hear it?

However, Zhou Xing felt annoyed and said, "Please block their mouths."

He Guangzhen and the others came over, blocked the mouths of the two with rags, and kept looking at the boxes with their eyes, feeling very furious.

Zhou Xing continued, "The source of this iron net was also something he thought about. It came from the Northern Qi lord Gao Yang, but the two were very precious and could not be cut to death. So we used the iron net to tie up the meat, so that we could cut the meat in small pieces."

When talking about the second thing, a group of people couldn't stand it and ran out halfway and would rather get wet in the rain than listen.

Zhou Xing took out the third thing and continued, "This is called a wooden hand, which was thought of by Li Biao, a lieutenant of the Northern Wei Dynasty. Because it is made of wood, it does not look like an iron tool, which will hurt but not fatal. Therefore, Li Biao often uses it to hit the prisoner on both sides, and he often causes the prisoner to die and recover many times. Later, when the prisoner heard that the wooden hand was coming, he confessed himself."

"Where is this stove plus plow ears, it is Gao Yang's torture instruments, which burned the plow ears red and then let the prisoner walk up barefoot. What's the result? You know."

After saying this, they were basically all gone. Although some prison ministers dealt with prisoners all day and used torture instruments, they couldn't help but vomit.

"This is the fifteenth item. A small mud is also very useful. This is a certain idea. He used some glue, mixed it into the mud, blocked it in his ears, then roasted it red with fire, and then pulled the mud off. No one knew what the result was, but he really wanted to see it. After all, it was a new criminal law."

Di Renjie made a temporary intention to use this person.

Knowing that this person was cruel, he was waiting for the morning court on Tianjin Bridge. An official from Dali Temple was discussing that some prisoners were very cunning and did not confess. So the person inserted it in and said, "If the prisoner was placed in his hands, any kind of cunning prisoner could force him to confess." Then he said some criminal laws, and they were stunned. Of course, listen, these criminal laws are too cruel. If they are really used, they will cause an uproar. It is even possible that the emperor will issue an order to punish them.

Di Renjie was considering finding someone walking in the dark for the prince, that is, a person like Li Yi Mansion and Xu Jingzong, so he kept a little heart. After inquiring, this person was named Zhou Xing, from Chang'an. He learned law since he was a child and went to the Shangshu Province to work as a capitalist. An official from the Seventh rank was in charge of receiving and receiving documents, inspecting missing documents and seal supervision, and was not very "professional". Moreover, this person has a stingy personality and is taciturn. In some places, he is very similar to Xu Jingzong and Li Yi Mansion, but he is not very talented, so he is not happy with his colleagues.

This kind of person is definitely not good at being a human being, but being a dog is the only candidate. It is possible to bite people, which is even more vicious than Xu Jingzong. However, even if Di Renjie found the candidate, he was hesitant.

Guan Fu just happened to send a message, and he used extraordinary people to be an extraordinary person. Whether he could get a confession in the middle of the night was related to whether the entire case could be successfully revealed. So when he thought of what this person said on Tianjin Bridge that day, he asked him to a restaurant. The two of them were drinking and talking. After a tentative test, they said the general idea, but they still did not mention Xu Jingzong, but only said that it was a very difficult case in Chang'an, with a top minister involved.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Xing agreed immediately. He could probably understand his thoughts, thinking that he was the chief aide of the prince, and that he was not loved by others in the Secretariat. No accident happened, and he might not be able to be promoted in his life. Those who built his own thread will see if he could benefit from the promotion of the prince in the future.

Finally, he prepared a little and asked this person to come to Chang'an together, specifically torture. Not only did the two people be arrested, but other assassins also had to get confessions quickly. Otherwise, the two lords would turn a big matter into small matters, and once the imperial edict was issued, it would be difficult to hear it again. However, before the imperial edict was issued, Dali Temple had the right to interrogate. Besides, because several criminals were not arrested, the assassination case of the prince Zhongnanshan was not settled until now.

Zhou Xing explained these "gategories" clearly and said, "Two, I know that since you dare to assassinate the prince, you will definitely not be afraid of death. Therefore, I don't plan to ask you to confess immediately. Let's do the same thing first. Start with skinning. This is also knowledgeable. Not only is the knife fast, but the knife must also burn red. This way, the knife that is peeled and burned red can burn blood and scars, and will not die of too much blood."

After saying that, he lit the fire and put the knife on the fire to roast it. After a while, the tip of the knife turned red. He pulled out the cloth from the two of them and said, "Then it's started. I won't ask. When do you think you can't stand it? Say it to me."

As he said that, he reached out to "Zhao Quaner"'s face with a small knife, and a small piece of skin was cut off. "Zhao Quaner" screamed in pain.

He Guangzhen also started vomiting, and he said to Guan Fu: "Where did Di Sicheng find this monster?"

Guan Fu was also very uncomfortable and shook his head. However, Niu Jin was better and said, "If you don't do this, you won't get a confession. But this example is a temporary measure, but it cannot be set up for a long time."

Seeing these punishments, don’t be punished by guilt, even if you don’t have any guilt, you have to be punished by guilt. As it is popular, there are still many unjust cases in the world. However, Di Renjie’s method of handling cases is the king.

The second knife stretched out again, and "Zhao Quan'er" shouted: "I've taken it, I've taken it, just give me a good death."

"If I had known this, I wouldn't have been hit by the knife just now. I had been explaining for most of the day. Oh, it's so stupid. Niu Yucheng, come in and pull the other person aside to prevent the two from colluding with confessions."

"Here!" Niu Jin and others immediately walked in and pulled the other person away. But when they used it, they would not talk about the criminals, they were even cold and scared when they heard it.

Zhou Xing said again: "One person will make records for me."

"Here."

I started asking one by one, but I had to ask for it anyway, and there was still someone who could tell the truth later, and almost even the things he had done had done.

Before the third update arrived, two confessions were sent to Yang's mansion.

Yang Sijian didn't fall asleep either. He was sitting in the living room with his son waiting for news. Seeing He Guangzhen come in, he asked anxiously: "What's wrong?"

"Everything is good, I'll leave it to you next." As he said that, he handed over the two words. With the candlelight, Yang Sijian quickly finished reading it and said happily: "Thank you all, but you still have to work hard to make these two offenders look forward to it."

"Yes. It's just a pity. If it were one day earlier, the Yu family would not have died." He Guangzhen sighed.

Yang Sijian did not express his opinion. Although he had made contributions, this woman was very moral and lacked. She did not answer, but said: "Since you are dead, you will go back to Dongdu and notify Di Sicheng and ask him for help. She will also find out the truth of the case and give her justice."

"Here."

When He Guangzhen left, Yang Sijian also left Yang's mansion and visited several people. The first one was Dai Zhide. Many people flattered Xu Jingzong and went to pay their respects, but Dai Zhide would not be flattered. He put on his clothes and asked in surprise: "Yang Weiqing, why did he come to a certain mansion so late?"

Yang Sijian did not answer. Looking at the servants behind him, Dai Zhide waved his hand and asked them to retreat. Only then did Yang Sijian take out the two confessions.

Dai Zhide was also stunned when he saw it, and asked in surprise: "Is it actually instructed by Xu Xianggong in Zhongnan Mountain?"

"Mr. Dai, I didn't expect it. Di Renjie sent someone to explain to me. The first was an assassin, more than a dozen assassins. We all thought it was Helan Minzhi who thought the news was leaked or suspected, so we sent the dead soldiers. His Royal Highness had called out his identity, and these people were still chasing them wildly, so it must be a dead soldiers. Di Renjie saw some doubts from this point. Since he was a dead soldiers and a close confidant of Helan Minzhi, why did none of his colleagues know the origin of these assassins? Of course, it is possible that only one is it.

One of Helan Min knew that Helan Minzhi was inconvenient to torture because of his identity. This is also our idea. In order to prevent Di Renjie from going out for work on behalf of his colleagues, he went to Longzhou and quietly found Zhang Bangyan and asked him. Zhang Bangyan was also suspicious. He had followed Helan Minzhi for many years and should have a deep understanding of Helan Minzhi, but he had not heard of it. Other people's words were not trustworthy, Zhang Bangyan had already abandoned the secret and turned to the light, and his words were trustworthy. So Di Renjie concluded that the assassin had nothing to do with Helan Minzhi."

This reason is enough.

"The second is Liu Hansan and Zhong Dahui. Only some aides knew about Helan Minzhi's attempt to kidnap my daughter. Maybe he was heard by the servants, but there were no two servants in Helan Minzhi's mansion. At that time, our idea was that it might be that the aides were leaked. Some people who loved the prince abandoned the aides in Helan Minzhi's mansion and looked for the prince. I was negligent again. Di Renjie believed that only some people in the East Palace knew about the prince's view of the matter. Maybe even Helan Minzhi didn't know why these two people knew? Of course, it might be a coincidence. Later, it was another coincidence, and it happened to be found. My daughter was kidnapped.

He left. In addition, Liu Lu disappeared and rescued successfully. The assassin happened to appear. There were many coincidences, which was also a doubt. Therefore, after some analysis, I learned about the conversation between the prince and Xu Xianggong. Although there was no dispute, my voice was already faintly hostile to the other party. What if this was instructed by Xu Xianggong? With his power, it was not difficult to get some information from the Eastern Palace, and it was even less difficult to have more than a dozen dead soldiers in his hand. It was also not difficult to let Liu Lu turn against Helan Minzhi and surrender to him. And the assassination was successful, and his grandson would no longer have any worries in his career. If the assassination was not successful, the prince was furious and his Majesty protected him. Then Your Majesty would be dissatisfied with Your Majesty and have articles to do."

"I understand. Let's talk about the others tomorrow. Let's go to Mr. Zhang's mansion."

This case is another great case. Zhang Yang went out, which was no less than Shangguan Yi's case, and he was the confidant of the two emperors... Dai Zhide could not make any decision on all the consequences.

At the fifth update, Dai Zhide, Zhang Wenguan, Xiao Zhaode, and Li Jingxuan were all alarmed.

The consequences were unpredictable, but it was dawn and the city gate was opened. Therefore, it was decided to arrest this group of assassins, Liu Lu, and even the two impersonating good people, Liu Santu (Liu Hansan), and Zhong Jinchu (Zhong Dahammer) and then arrest him.
