Chapter 184: Clues (II)
If someone asked the unruly man what the cruelest punishment in the world was, he would definitely answer 'waterboarding'. The feeling that you can't die if you want to die, and you can't live can simply drive people crazy.
So the man now regrets why he is cheap, why he has to pretend to be. I don't know how many times the linen towel on his face has been covered on his face, and the man's heart has begun to despair.
He really wanted to have a good chat with Li Chengqian now, yes, a good chat, even if he knelt on the ground to talk, as long as he didn't water that damn burlap towel anymore.
But at this time, he couldn't say a word, and could only struggle desperately, trying to breathe the air that was close at hand but couldn't breathe in his mouth at all.
The other traffickers were so stupid that they couldn't even feel the pain in their feet, just staring blankly at the man who was tied to the bench and constantly being poured water on his face.
If you don't look at it, you can't do it, and whoever doesn't look at it will have to replace it.
This kind of tossing has been going on for a whole hour, which means that the man with an unclean mouth has been struggling on the edge of life and death for nearly an hour.
"Da Lang, it's recruited." After about an hour, Wu Chen, who was covered in sweat, came to the front hall and said to Li Chengqian.
"Who the hell is that kid?" Li Chengqian asked.
"Goguryeo spy, Wude was sent to the Tang Dynasty in the second year, responsible for finding out the news and kidnapping some children with good qualifications and sending them back to Goguryeo." Wu Chen said with a serious expression.
"Spies? Hey, it's so deep. Li Chengqian snorted, and then asked, "Did you say anything else?" ”
"That kid said......" Wu Chen suddenly paused in the middle of speaking, as if there was something taboo.
"Go on." Li Chengqian glanced at Wu Chen, and then said.
"That kid said that he was from the Yuan clan, let us let him go, otherwise his family will take revenge in the future." Wu Chen hesitated for a long time, and finally told the truth.
"The Yuan family? Hmph, it's not a small guts. Li Chengqian snorted coldly and said.
As early as when the old man in Li Chengqian's family was called the emperor, the Yuan family changed their surname to Quan in order to show their submission, but they didn't expect that they were playing the trick of secretly crossing Chen Cang on the plank road in the Ming Dynasty, and they were still using the surname Yuan secretly.
"That's all that kid said, and you didn't ask how you plan to retaliate?" After a while, Li Chengqian saw that Wu Chen didn't ask, so he asked.
Wu Chen's face was entangled again, but looking at Li Chengqian's inquiring eyes, he finally gritted his teeth and said: "Ya said that if you kill him, Goguryeo will report to the court and destroy your entire clan, if Your Majesty does not allow it, the Yuan clan will raise millions of troops and set foot in Chang'an." ”
"Damn, who does that bastard think he is? King of Goguryeo? Li Chengqian sat on the chair and almost didn't fall down, and began to wonder if the Goguryeo spy was laughing himself to death by teasing.
"Where are the children they kidnapped?" Without thinking much about the threat, Li Chengqian thought of the abducted children.
"I don't know, I just said that a man in black will come over to receive it from time to time." Wu Chen shook his head and said.
The man in black, Li Chengqian snorted his teeth, feeling that he was really close to the man in black, and the man in black of the mysterious organization had not yet been done, and another one appeared here.
I really don't know if those who do bad things like to wear black.
However, after such a thing, Li Chengqian didn't have the heart to rectify the person, so he casually ordered Wu Chen to notify the two errand boys outside, find the cart back, and send the person back to the Kaifeng Mansion prison in a while.
Anyway, those bastards have broken their hamstrings, and in the future, they will not be able to do anything except ask for food, and then they will be thrown into the prison of Kaifeng Mansion, and it is estimated that this life will be like that.
The target of Li Chengqian's concern now has become those rescued children, and the problem of Goguryeo can only be left for later to be solved slowly, and in his current capacity, it may not be a big problem to occasionally reach out and meddle in some local affairs, but it is always bad to manage too much, and he will be hated.
And this kind of thing can't be managed, he is the prince, not a fast catch, except for giving Lao Li a table and asking for strict inspection of the border, there are not many things he can do.
"Da Lang, you better stop looking." At the door of the room where the rescued children lived, Wang Xuance stood sideways in front of Li Chengqian and said.
"Let's see, after all, we will take these children away." Li Chengqian knew that Wang Xuance had good intentions and didn't want him to see the miserable appearance of those children.
"Take it away?" Wang Xuance didn't expect Li Chengqian to have such thoughts.
"What if you don't take it away? Let them fend for themselves here? Li Chengqian sat on the steps of the door and motioned for Lao Wang to sit with him.
"But there are so many such children in the world, can you take care of them?" Wang Xuance sat down side by side with Li Chengqian, looked at him and asked.
"Do your best, obey the destiny of heaven, I can only do my best, I can't turn a blind eye. They may have been abducted by human traffickers due to the negligence of their parents, but it is also the lack of the law of my Datang, and as the prince of the Tang Dynasty, I am more or less responsible for this matter. ”
Li Chengqian looked at the wall with some distraction, and muttered in his mouth, at this time there was only one sentence in his mind: 'How great the ability is, how great the responsibility'.
In later generations, grassroots otaku, except for spitting on those traffickers on the Internet, has no way at all, and now he is the prince of the Tang Dynasty, although he is still a little powerless in the face of the problem of child trafficking, but at least he has the ability to solve the problem.
"Da Lang, you should actually kill those people." Wang Xuance looked back at the room, turned his head and said with some gloom.
"I also want to kill them, but that is against the laws of the Tang Dynasty, if I don't want to be recruited back to Chang'an to squat in Zongzheng Temple before I go to Shandong, I can only let them go." Li Chengqian said with a wry smile.
Xuan Ce understood, but ...... Unwilling. Wang Xuance sighed and said.
"If you are not reconciled, you will work hard when you arrive in Shandong, the higher your position, the greater your ability, and the closer you can be to the ideal in your heart." Li Chengqian patted Wang Xuance on the shoulder, got up from the ground, patted the dust on his clothes, and walked into the distance.
Li Chengqian is a person who can listen to persuasion, and since Wang Xuance is blocked here and does not allow himself to enter, it shows that the situation of those children is indeed very bad. And knowing that the situation is wrong, if you want to break in, it is not a 'wise demon', but Xi Er is stunned.
Therefore, not long after Li Chengqian left, Xi Er's stunned voice roared in the sky above the small courtyard: "Lao Tzu wants to kill them, he must kill them." ”
