Chapter 957: It's hard to get out
Remember [Pen โ Fun รท Book] in one second, and read it for free without pop-ups!
When I heard that there was an opportunity to make a name for myself in history, people's enthusiasm quickly rose.
In the end, everyone made a decision that the technique of waterboarding could only be used on prisoners after receiving an order from the Shoshu of the Criminal Department or the Imperial Doctor.
If a magistrate interrogates a prisoner without asking for instructions, it is regarded as a perversion of the law and an attempt to commit misdeeds, and he is immediately executed.
As for the criminal department Shangshu or the left and right imperial historians, what should I do if they have selfish intentions? Then there is no way, which temple does not have a ghost who died unjustly?
Then to get to the point, Li Xian issued an order to bet Duan Qian on the Golden Palace.
This is a middle-aged man in his forties, of medium stature, not very burly, except for a pair of eyes that are delicate and spinning, which is particularly eye-catching.
As soon as he came in, he saw Empress Wei on the throne and said, "Eh, this girl is the queen, she looks really good, much better than the goods in Pingkang Lane!" โ
"Bold!" Zong Chuke reprimanded: "You insult the queen with such foul language, aren't you afraid of Wan Ling Chi?" โ
"Wan Ling Chi? Good! It's going to be late! frowned, my surname Duan is not a hero. Duan Qian said: "In my life, I will be the emperor for a while, and I can still be cut by Wan Ling Chi when I die, and I have not lived in vain in this life!" Boy, you must cut me 10,000 knives, one less knife, you are the one who me~ out! โ
"You ......"
Zong Chuke is a child of a family, how could he have dealt with such a rough person, he was dumbfounded, and he was angry and blushing and thick-necked.
That Duan Qian continued: "Besides, why did I disrespect the queen just now? She is not a chaste martyr, Wu Sansi can play, Yang Jun can play, Ma Qinke can play, and Monk Huifan can play...... Why can't I play? This girl may not be as clean as the little lady in Pingkang Lane. โ
Hitting people doesn't slap people in the face, exposing people doesn't expose shortcomings, hearing this, don't say that Empress Wei is over, that is, Li Xiandu's face is pale, and he shouted: "Pull down, pull down, Ling Chi will be executed!" Chop it up and feed it to the dogs! โ
Cui Geng hurriedly said: "Your Majesty is angry, Your Majesty is angry." This guy is now bent on death, so as to cover up the real mastermind behind the scenes. You can't let a scoundrel fool you, can you? โ
Li Xian sobered up a little at this time, and shouted: "Waterboarding, then give him waterboarding!" Then, chop it up again and feed it to the dogs! โ
"Yes."
The warrior in front of the hall came up, gagged Duan Qian's mouth with rags, and then covered his face with yellow mounting paper.
With little effort, he took off the rags and yellow mounting paper, and said, "Who told you to go to the Taiji Hall to make trouble?" โ
Duan Qian said: "It's Shi Chongxuan!" โ
"Rub! You kid still has a hard mouth! Again! โ
โฆโฆ
To put it simply, four or five waterboards were used in a row, and this guy bit Shi Chongxuan to death.
Ji Chu Ne saw the bargain and said: "Your Majesty, this Qian has repeatedly said that Shi Chongxuan sent him, I'm afraid what he said is true!"
Li Xian looked at Cui Geng and said, "Cui Aiqing, what do you think?" โ
Cui Geng smiled bitterly: "This is the second drawback of the waterboarding technique. It's not impossible to ask him to confess to a second person, it's just a few more waterboards. But if this is the case, the judge can only get the truth in his own mind, not necessarily the truth of the matter. But...... Wechen still has a way. โ
"What's the solution?" After a slight pause, Li Xian said uneasily: "You don't need to cripple people, right?" โ
"Of course not, it's just that it takes a long time."
"How long will it take?"
"Probably...... Belch...... Look at the resistance of this guy, about three to five days. โ
"And what's the name of this technique?"
"Eagle interrogation."
The so-called boiling eagle interrogation technique is the fatigue interrogation technique of later generations, but it is easy for everyone to understand it.
The specific method is that no one is allowed to sleep and rest, and to ask the same questions again and again when he is infinitely tired.
At that time, the initiative of the offender is weak, and the truth will be inadvertently leaked.
Of course, in modern society, if you go through systematic and rigorous training, you can weave a so-called "truth" by yourself, and the interrogator cannot distinguish the truth from the false.
But during the Tang Dynasty, it was impossible for the scoundrel Duan Qian to receive this kind of training.
Cui Geng first ordered someone to knock out all his teeth to prevent him from biting his tongue and committing suicide, and then explained the specific method.
Looking at Duan Qian's bloody mouth, the ministers couldn't help but feel a sore tooth. Grandma's, this Cui Erlang is really damaged, saying that if you don't cripple your limbs, you don't cripple your real body, but this mouth full of teeth has been knocked out alive, so it's better to be hit by dozens of boards. But he still kept declaring that he was "benevolent" to use such means, and he really did a ~ or set up an archway.
Empress Wei was very happy with Cui Geng's performance, thinking that this was her son-in-law being angry with herself.
To put it briefly, three days later, Duan Qian finally spoke, claiming that Monk Purun gave him 100,000 yuan to let him do it.
As for the whereabouts of this money? I didn't spend any of it, so I handed it over to my good friend Duan Yanchang and asked him to use the money to help the victims.
That's right, Datang has many disasters, and there was another major drought, including Qinyong and Yong, a total of 37 states were affected.
Is that okay?
Committing a capital crime to provide relief to the victims?
Cui Geng was deeply surprised by this person's brain circuit.
However, Duan Qian said proudly: "People live in this life, they can't be eaten by Wuding, they should be cooked by Wuding, otherwise, what's the difference between them and birds ~ beasts?" Cui Xiang, take a look, are we now famous in history? โ
"Dare to love that." Cui Geng's face was black.
He thought of the Tianjin gangsters in later generations, and felt that it was not completely incomprehensible. In the Qing Dynasty, weren't there still Tianjin gangsters who would rather be tortured than beg for mercy, declaring that "if you want to rob, you will rob the emperor, and if you want to rape, you will rape your mother"?
Duan Qian sighed again and said, "But it's a pity, your Cui Xiang's means are too strong, and you have to betray your friend, this reputation is very pale, it's a pity!" Cui Xiang, can you write an article to help me correct my name? โ
Cui Geng rolled his eyes and said, "You want to be beautiful, at most, this official begs Your Majesty not to put you to death." โ
"Alas, don't mind, Ling Chi's execution has a lot of face, don't change it!"
โฆโฆ
Anyway, Duan Qian confessed, and the case was over.
It is said that Purun is Li Longji's person, and with this confession, Purun was arrested, and Li Longji had to be stripped of his skin if he didn't die.
But the result of the matter greatly exceeded Cui Geng's expectations.
Daming Palace, on the Zichen Palace.
Pu Run knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, if you want to instigate Duan Qian to enter the Daming Palace and frame Shi Chongxuan, this crime is confessed by a poor monk." But if you want to talk about rebellion, or even take the opportunity to frame Princess Taiping, the poor monk will not admit it. โ
"Then why are you doing that?"
"Now the queen believes in Ye Jingneng Immortal, Princess Taiping favors Shi Chongxuan, and what about our Buddhist family? Finally, there is a wise fan, and something is broken. In the long run, it is inevitable that the Buddha will disappear, and the poor monks will have a heart to defend the Buddha, so they have no choice but to make this decision. โ
As he spoke, Pu Run kowtowed heavily and said, "Thousands of mistakes, all of them are the fault of the poor monks, Your Majesty must not involve others." My Buddha is merciful and will surely bless Your Majesty. โ
"Is it involved in the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism...... Li Xian thought for a moment and muttered: "I attach equal importance to Buddhism and Taoism in the Tang Dynasty, and let me think about it carefully." โ
