Yang Yufang, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, said that another junior official had confessed, which was of course to bluff Zhang Sanxiao, but in fact, the other junior official did not confess. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

About half an hour later, when Zhang Sanxiao was tortured again until he fell into a coma, Xu Rong, the Qingzheng of Dali Temple, took Zhao Hongrun and others to the next room for a short rest.

After taking a few sips of tea, Xu Rong couldn't help but sigh: "The old man has been trying and judging cases for more than ten years, and he really hasn't encountered a few times like this hard bone...... Obviously the clue is right in front of you. ”

With a bang, Xu Rong's hand slammed on the table next to him, and everyone in the room could see that the old man was holding back the anger in his heart.

At this time, Zong Wei Chang Wei Jiao interjected on the side: "Can you start with his family and persuade him to confess?" ”

Xu Rong glanced at Wei Jiao, took out two pieces of paper from his arms and handed them to Wei Jiao, and said: "That Zhang Sanxiao is a widower, who lives alone and has no relatives, and the other Liu Wang, there is only one blind old mother in the ......family who is sick in bed all the year round" Note: The widower (guan) husband is the man who died of his wife.

Liu Wang is the name of another small official.

Zhao Hongrun pondered for a moment, then turned his head and asked Yang Yudao, Shaoqing of Dali Temple: "Yang Shaoqing, how is the situation over there?" ”

"I also refuse to recruit." Shaoqing Yang Yu shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Liu Wang's body is quite strong, several jailers are tired and panting like cattle, that guy is good, he is beaten with his eyes closed, and he doesn'......t say a word."

"Silent?" Zhao Hongrun looked at the two pieces of paper handed over by Zong Wei, and asked suspiciously: "Then Liu Wang didn't complain about injustice?" ”

"That's not ......" Shaoqing Yang Yue snorted lightly: "If you want to come to that guy, you know that the catastrophe is inevitable, but that guy is really a hard bone." ”

Zhao Hongrun looked at the two pieces of paper in his hand, and saw that these two pieces of paper were full of biographies about Zhang Sanxiao and Liu Wang.

Suddenly, Zhao Hongrun opened his mouth and said, "Can Lord Shaoqing take this king to meet that Liu Wang?" ”

Shaoqing Yang Yue was stunned for a moment, and asked curiously: "Isn't there a way for His Highness to make this person speak?" ”

"Try it."

So, Zhao Hongrun took Wen Qi and Zongwei Changwei Wei Jiao, and under the leadership of Yang Yu, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, came to another torture room.

Sure enough, a prison officer and three jailers in the torture room were panting tiredly, but Liu Wang, who was tied to the shelf, closed his eyes and said nothing.

Glancing at the whip marks all over this person's chest and back, even if it was Zhao Hongrun, he couldn't help but praise: It's a man!

"Your name is Liu Wang?"

Zhao Hongrun walked up to Liu Wang and asked calmly.

Liu Wang opened his eyes and glanced at Zhao Hongrun, and then his eyes closed again, obviously not planning to say anything to Zhao Hongrun.

Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun didn't care, raised the two pieces of paper in his hand, and said lightly: "It is said that Zhang Sanxiao, the government official who is in the same class as you, has lent you a lot of money in the past few years, is this money used to treat your mother who is sick in bed?" ”

"......" Liu Wang opened his eyes again and looked at Zhao Hongrun, but he still didn't speak.

"Don't worry that Dali Temple will send someone to torture your mother, Lord Xu has sent someone to ask the doctor who has been diagnosing Lingtang's condition, and learned that Lingtang's time is running out, if Dali Temple sends someone to arrest Lingtang, I'm afraid Lingtang will die halfway...... Is it because of this that you have no fear? Zhao Hongrun looked up at Liu Wang.

Liu Wang opened his mouth slightly, but still didn't say anything.

And at this moment, I saw Zhao Hongrun staring at Liu Wang for a long time, and suddenly turned to Shaoqing Yang Yu and said: "Yang Shaoqing, please send someone to inform the old mother of Liu Wang's family, and tell her that her son is suspected of harming the Shangshu of the Imperial Court Criminal Department, and has committed the unpardonable crime of rebellion and rebellion, and her Liu family ...... It's going to be the end! ”

Yang Yu, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, was stunned for a moment, and just as he was about to respond, he heard an angry roar in the torture room.

"You dare?!"

Spoken......

Shaoqing Yang Yue looked at Liu Wang with some consternation, you must know that Fang Cai, no matter how severely tortured by several jailers, this man who was as strong as a cow never spoke.

"What are you panicking about?" Zhao Hongrun looked at Liu Wang lightly and said coldly: "Are you worried that Ling Tang will be angry to death by her unfilial son?" ”

Liu Wang glared at Zhao Hongrun angrily.

Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "Liu Wang, this king will give you a chance for the sake of your filial piety in serving your mother on weekdays...... If you are willing to confess, this king is in charge, and will not inform Lingtang of what you have done, so that Lingtang can still think that his filial son is a good man before he dies, and this king can also be in charge, so that you will not be punished by death, and you will be sent to the army. …… But if you are stubborn, this king does not mind informing Lingtang of your affairs. This king only gives you ten breaths of time to think about it. ”

"......" listened to Zhao Hongrun's intimidation, and only then faced Liu Wang, who was not afraid of torture, his expression was faintly panicked.

I saw him swallow his saliva and ask in a low voice, "You...... Who is it? ”

Seeing this, Shaoqing Yang Yu, who had realized that the situation had made a breakthrough, hurriedly walked over, pointed at Zhao Hongrun and introduced: "This is His Royal Highness King Su Hongrun!" ”

"Su ...... King......? Liu Wang looked at Zhao Hongrun in horror.

may have guessed the fear in Liu Wang's heart, Zhao Hongrun chuckled and said: "This king is in Daliang, and he is also a little famous, Ling Tang should believe what this king says, right?" …… Maybe she believes in her son more, do you want to gamble? ”

Liu Wang's lips trembled slightly, and after half a sound, he whispered, "Please let my mother ...... Passed away peacefully, His Royal Highness King Su. ”

"It's up to you, Liu Wang." Zhao Hongrun Zhengse said.

Liu Wang was silent for a moment, and then said in a low voice: "...... I don't know why Brother Zhang wanted to kidnap Zhou Shangshu, but when he called me that day, Zhou Shangshu had already fallen to the ground......"

"Was Zhou Shangshu still alive at that time?" Zhao Hongrun asked tightly.

Liu Wang nodded and continued to whisper: "At that time, Zhou Shangshu still had breath. …… At that time, I didn't know that it was Zhou Shangshu, but looking at the official uniform on his body, I could also guess that it was a big official. …… I was very panicked at the time, but Brother Zhang asked me to do him a favor, so we tied Zhou Shangshu with ropes and took Zhou Shangshu away from the back door of the ministry's mansion......"

"Where?" Zhao Hongrun asked in a deep voice.

"I don't know." Liu Wang shook his head and explained: "At that time, there was already a carriage in the alley at the back gate of the mansion, and Brother Zhang and I moved Zhou Shangshu into the carriage, and then, before getting into the carriage, Brother Zhang gave me a letter of silver and asked me to buy some food for my mother...... Speaking of this, he glanced at Zhao Hongrun and added: "The silver is hidden in the stove in my house......"

Zhao Hongrun didn't care about any silver, waved his hand to interrupt Liu Wang, and asked, "Where did the carriage go?" ”

Liu Wang shook his head again and said, "I don't know about this, Brother Zhang didn't take me there, he just told me not to disclose this matter to anyone." Speaking of this, he looked at Zhao Hongrun with begging eyes and said in a low voice: "All I know is that. ”

"......" Zhao Hongrun and Yang Yu, Shaoqing of Dali Temple, glanced at each other, and the two walked out of the torture room.

"Does Your Highness think what this person says is credible?" Yang Yu asked in a low voice.

Zhao Hongrun pondered for a moment, nodded and said: "This Liu Wang is not even afraid of death, he is afraid of being known by his mother, coupled with his past filial piety, this son should be a filial son." …… I guessed correctly, this Liu Wang is not a member of the murderous party, he is just hindered by Zhang Sanxiao's usual care, and he can't erase his feelings...... The key is still in that Zhang Sanxiao! ”

After saying this, Zhao Hongrun couldn't help but sigh.

Because, after all, Liu Wang still has a blind old mother who is sick in bed, but that Zhang Sanxiao is a widower who lives alone, and he has no relatives and no reason in Daliang, so he can't use the method of dealing with Liu Wang to pry open this person's mouth.

"Let's try."

Zhao Hongrun said uncertainly.

The two returned to the torture room where Zhang Sanxiao was tortured, and told Zhang Sanxiao everything Liu Wang had revealed.

may be because he was just bluffed by Shaoqing Yang Yu once, Zhang Sanxiao didn't care at first, just blindly complained, but when Yang Yu told Zhang Sanxiao Liu Wang's words as they were, but asked where the latter took Zhou Yan, the secretary of the Criminal Department, with a carriage, Zhang Sanxiao's face changed a little.

"That rammer, if I wasn't afraid of arousing suspicion at the time, I should have killed him with one sword!"

may feel that the disguise has been dismantled, and Zhang Sanxiao no longer complains about injustice, and the face that was only submissive and crying about wrongs immediately became ruthless.

Seeing this, Dali Temple Qingzheng Xu Rong asked sharply: "Who is the person who connects with you?" Where did you take Zhou Shangshu to? ”

At this time, Zhao Hongrun also revealed his identity and said to Zhang Sanxiao: "As long as you are willing to reveal the people behind you, this king can call the shots and allow you to be the same as Liu Wang, and change the execution to the army ......."

However, before Zhao Hongrun finished speaking, Zhang Sanxiao spit a mouthful of blood on Zhao Hongrun's face.

"You!"

Zongwei Changwei rushed up arrogantly and grabbed Zhang Sanxiao's neck.

However, Zhang Sanxiao still stared at Zhao Hongrun with his eyes, gritted his teeth and said with difficulty: "It's time to recover that blood debt, you ...... It won't end well ......"

With that, he hung his head as if he had fainted.

Wei Jiao was stunned, stretched out his snort, and found that Zhang Sanxiao had died.

"How so?" Wei Jiao immediately opened Zhang Sanxiao's mouth, groped out a black thing from it, and then he turned around and said, "He's dead...... He bit the poison sac in his teeth. ”

Dead?

Zhao Hongrun, Xu Rong, Chu Shuli, Yang Yu and others looked at each other, and no one expected that a small government official of the Ministry of Officials was actually a dead soldier.

After half a ring, Zhao Hongrun raised his sleeves, wiped the blood on his face with his cuffs, and then glanced at Xu Rong, the Qingqing of Dali Temple, who also had doubts about it.

Why me?

Zhao Hongrun glanced at Xu Rong's location.

Obviously, Xu Rong stood further forward, and whether it was arrest or torture, it was Xu Rong's order, Zhao Hongrun didn't say anything on the side, but on the contrary, Zhang Sanxiao spit on him Zhao Hongrun with blood......

What is the rationale for this? (To be continued.) )
