Chapter 807: The Trial (Part II)

"Come out" doesn't have to be memorized anymore. Wan Lun said in a deep voice towards the east wall.

The wall slowly opened, and a chemical product Yushi came out of it, sweating profusely, and said, "But suffocate me." ”

Hu Zongxian seemed to know that there were people there, and he was not a little surprised from beginning to end.

Wan Lun sat down after returning to the big case, and the young imperial historian also sat down behind the table on his left, straightened the file in his hand, and was ready to continue recording, before he glanced at Hu Zongxian and said: "This kind of old Jiān giant cunning person, it is not possible to move the real thing." "Hmm......" Wan Lun nodded, patted the wood and said, "Come on!" The four Dongchang fans came in.

"Remove your seat!" Wan Lun didn't have a smile on his face, and waved his sleeves.

Hu Zongxian slowly got up unconcernedly, "Fanzi took down his chair and looked at Wan Lun, meaning, what else do you command?"

"Before coming," Wan Lun looked at him expressionlessly and said, "What do you have to do to block your head?" "Back to my lordship." Fanzi said in a deep voice: "Everything is at your command." ”

"For those who refuse to confess", Wan Lun said in a flat voice: "What will you do?" ”

"Hehe......" Fanzi bared his teeth, and said with a smile: "But whoever has entered the East Factory has not confessed." ”

"Then I have to ask for ......advice," Wan Lun glanced at Hu Zongxian and said, "How do you get this person to confess?" ”

"The torture equipment here is too crude...... Fanzi smiled: "If it is in our dim sum room in the East Factory......"

"Dim sum room?" , Wan Lunqi said.

"It's your torture room, we don't call it a torture room, we call it a dim sum room." Fanzi replied.

Although I always heard that the criminal law of Dongchang is cruel, "but there is basically no one who can get out" Occasionally there are some great blessings, and they never mention the encounter inside, so Wan Lun doesn't know what the situation is inside, and today he happened to meet an insider, and Suo Xìng wanted to find out" So he asked: "Why is it called a dim sum room?" ”

The fans are all some evil masters" so they are happy to introduce: "Such a dim sum room, there were originally eighteen, after the improvement of the past dynasties, now there are seventy-two, just enough to make up the number of the earth, each is a snack, such as the first course, called "chun wind swinging willow", he said while gesturing: "Tie the criminal's feet to death" hanging upside down on the crossbeam "The two hands are also supported by two wooden sticks to support and cannot move. Then the inner wall was densely filled with iron nails. As long as the upside-down man is forced, his back will hit the iron nail in the wall, and the light will pierce the skin rou, and the back of the head will be pierced into a hornet's nest. The corners of his mouth said: "One dàng one dàng's multi-pin hún, if you don't get stabbed to death, you will be scared to death." Seeing that Wan Lun's face changed slightly, he smiled and said: "This is the lightest dim sum to eat, and the second dish is called "slate pancake", and the taste is much heavier. ”

"How?" Wan Lun looked at Hu Zongxian and saw that his eyes were closed, but he obviously listened.

"The ground floor of this room is actually a stove, and if you add firewood for less than half an hour, you can fry eggs on it" At this time, if you take the prisoner into it, how long do you say he can hold out?" ”

Wan Lun was terrified when he heard it, thinking that Hu Zongxian must be the same. He didn't have time to listen to that fan, so he said: "There is no dim sum room here", so you can't play huā? "How could it be", Na Fanzi shook his head and said: "Our Dongchang is the ancestor of torture, what huā can't play?" I just said it's a pity, it's that there can't be a big scene here, but there are still xiao methods. ”

"That Lao, please show me Yihui," Wan Lun said lightly.

Fanzi looked at Hu Zongxian, "Look at Wanlun again", and was a little embarrassed: "I don't dare to call the shots." ", "It turns out that Dongchang's ability is all in one mouth. The jury Yushi couldn't get his pen for a long time, and couldn't help but sarcastically.

"You wait, I'll ask the head." Nafanzi regarded this kind of questioning as a provocation" and said in a loud voice: "As long as he agrees, he will open your eyes today!" "Go and come back!" Wan Lun nodded.

一一"一一、一"一、一"

When that time goes out" Wan Lun didn't look at Hu Zongxian, sat behind the case and looked up at the roof and said: "The seniors have been heroic all their lives, and the younger generations really can't bear to witness the tragic situation of your punishment."

"I have not yet been convicted, and I am still a straw worker" shall not be punished according to the law. Hu Zongxian sighed lightly and said: "Master Wan, I, Hu Zongxian, am old and cheap, and I can toss it casually" But the dignity of the scholar cannot be broken. ”

"You also deserve to mention the decency of a scholar!" , Wan Lun didn't say anything, but the young Yushi was nonsense, but he slapped the big case suddenly, and said angrily: "You have lost your weight in front of the body of the scholar!" There are many disasters and famines in the world, the lack of financial resources of the imperial court, the difficulty of the country's progress, and the difficulty of people's livelihood! However, from the emperor to the hundreds of officials, and the people of Li, all of them are used sparingly to meet the needs of the military state, for the purpose of resisting the Japanese! Qu Liu'er expropriated violently, embezzled and embezzled, and squandered the people's ointment, and even won the name of Governor Yinshan! You are also in collusion with the Yan Party, and the gift list of filial piety to the Yan family father and son every year is jaw-dropping! A huge greedy beetle like you has lost the face of a scholar, and if you don't add to the skin, it will be difficult to solve the hatred in the hearts of the people in the world! ”

His voice buzzed in the interrogation room, and Wan Lun didn't stop it, just looked at Hu Zongwan coldly, "Hahaha", forbearance is just Hu Zongxian's means, "Arrogance is his real xìng." Now in such a field, the other party will not give up if he does not achieve his goal, and he will not be able to pass the test if he pretends to be a grandson. Suo xìng laughed loudly and said: "Huangkou xiao'er, you also deserve to talk to me about the common people in the world!" Saying that, he lowered his head and stared at the other party and said, "What were you doing when the old man went out of the southeast of the town?" ”

"This", "he is a jinshi in Jiajing's 40 years, and he only entered the political arena after Hu Zongxian left the opposition" On the one hand, the bad impression of him comes from his colleagues. On the other hand, it came from the dossier that Wan Lun showed him.

"You can record the following words." Hu Zongxian said loudly: "I, Hu, have been assigned to the big households in the southeast, but I have not sent them to the common people, but I just want those big households who are rich and unkind to take their due responsibility!" Saying that, he glanced at him mockingly and said: "Xiaozi, it seems that you are not from a big family, but you must have received a lot of favors from others...... "Don't take care of him!" Hu Yanqing said with a red face.

"There's nothing to be shy about, it's the same for everyone in the world." Hu Zongxian laughed self-deprecatingly: "Eating people with short mouths and short hands, how can a scholar not speak for a big family, my reputation is notorious, most of it comes from this!" As he spoke, his voice became angry: "But the six provinces are fighting against the Japanese, and the consumption is very great!" The imperial court can only allocate less than 30% of the military salary every year, and the rest needs to be raised by the southeast itself, "If I don't forcibly raise it, what will the sons and daughters of the anti-Japanese eat and drink!" Do you take a wooden stick and try the long knife of the Japanese cowards? Or is it ...... Should I avoid the big families and focus on the poor? That will only lead to rebellion by the government and the people, and let the Japanese invaders suppress more and more! ”

"And what about your embezzlement?" Hu Yanqing saw sweat on his forehead, "He can't refute the other party at all."

"Use the plan to use jiān and buy eyeliner, if you don't have xiaohui, you can't make a big plan! Reward the soldiers, compensate for the disabled, how can you pay attention without heavy money? All of them require a lot of money, but only a few ...... can clear the accounts," Hu Zongxian said lightly, "I had to embezzle it from military funds." ”

"Clever words make sè!" Hu Yanqing grabbed his handle again, and said loudly: "Could it be that the generous gift given to Yan Shifan must also be misappropriated from military funds?" ”

"Of course......" Hu Zongxian looked at Wan Lun and said: "He didn't go through the era when the Yan family's father and son were in power, but Wan Zhongcheng did, do you dare to tell him about the survival of officials at that time?" ”

Wan Lun was silent, and said in his heart, why didn't he come yet?

"If you don't want to talk about it, I'll talk about it." Hu Zongxian said lightly: "At that time, the father and son of the Yan family controlled the government, whether it was the cabinet ministers or the six Shangshu, to leave the blessings and misfortunes, only in their thoughts. Especially that Yan Shifan, relying on his father, blackmailed the civil and military officials, since Feng Baisi and the nine-sided civil and military generals, when he was old, he gave a gift to "the name, greetings,." Anyone who can repay the crime of merit and build the city, must first filial piety to the silver two, more than 10,000, less than thousands, Na Shifan, the name said, buy a life "Otherwise, there will be no reward for merit, and there will be heavy punishment for guilt, and there will be no appropriation from the imperial court!" After a pause, he said: "Even, the household department releases the silver taels on all sides, and Yan Shifan must eat enough chou heads, otherwise a catastrophe will inevitably come, and the day will be precarious!" ”

After listening to Hu Zongxian's words, "the Yanguan Hu Yanqing was shocked, although he had heard that the Yan family's father and son were in charge of the Luan Kingdom, it was hard to imagine" to this extent!

"If not, buy your life and say hello" How can the governor of the southeast live in peace and command the six provinces to fight against the Japanese? Hu Zongxian said a little sluggishly: "This Lord Xiao, if you are replaced, where will you go?" ”

"Even if I hang up the crown and go away and be an idle cloud and wild crane, I am not uncommon to get such an official position!" , Hu Yanqing said stiffly.

"Yes, everyone cherishes Yu Mao, when did you think about this country, when did you think about my Ming Dynasty?" Hu Zongxian looked at the nonsense coldly and said: "In the final analysis, you are studying and becoming an official, or for yourself." ”

was banged by Hu Zongxian's pistol "Hu Yanqing was completely confused, he only felt that his beliefs, values, and even world view had all collapsed, and he couldn't reorganize for a while, and the whole person was dumbfounded.

At this time, the Dongchang fan came in and brought a companion with a burden, and nodded to Wan Lun, obviously asking for the consent of the blocker.

"The great evil has never been stubborn" There is no need for you below. Wan Lun glanced at Hu Yanqing, and said in a flat tone: "Let's go outside for a drink." He was worried that after looking at the situation below, the young people would collapse this year.

"Thank you......" Hu Yanqing wiped his sweat, didn't dare to look at Hu Zongxian, only hugged his fist at Wan Lun, and then fled and left this ghost place.

…… "......", ...... "......", "...... "......"...... 1. "......" ...... 1. "......" ...... "......"...... 1. "......" ......"............ 凵 "......"...... I. I. "...... One...... 凵一、

Watching Dongchang Fanzi put out the strange torture instruments in the baggage, "Hu Zongxianrao is a man beaten with iron", he couldn't help but his eyes jumped suddenly, and he said to Na Wanlun: "You are the first imperial history in the two hundred years of the Ming Dynasty to use Dongchang to try the case!" After a pause, he said: "By the way, you don't have a holy decree yet, and your courage is really one."

"It's expedient, and I can't care so much." , Wan Lun face lù hideous sè" I don't know why I am so persistent, and said: "As long as I take your confession, I will also have a beautiful conversation!" He looked at the two fans viciously and said, "What are you still doing in a daze?" Torture! ",Bang, bang, twice, Hu Zongxian was kicked into the knee socket "Kneeling on the ground, his knee was about to break." Before he could recover from the pain, he was grabbed by the head and let him struggle hard.

One fanzi held him down, and the other fanzi, holding a two-headed fork and fastening it to his neck with a belt, one end into his lower collar and the other end pointing directly at his xiōng bone...... However, the design of the four prongs between the lower and xiōng bones makes the fork "no matter how deep it is" it does not affect his sound.

This hellish perverted design, I'm afraid that only the dead eunuchs of the East Factory can invent it.

Hu Zongxian can only reduce the pain of the steel fork entering the body by desperately stretching his neck.

Looking at his embarrassed appearance, the two fans laughed, laughing and laughing, and suddenly one pinched his left wrist from behind to the right shoulder" The other pinched his right wrist and broke it to the back of his right neck, and the two wrists were closer and tighter on the back of the right neck and shoulder, and the click of the bone joints could be heard The spider "the neck leaned forward uncontrollably...... ",......

Hu Zongxian resisted with all his strength, his face became so frightened that his face was full of blood, and his two eyes seemed to bulge out of their sockets...... But it still couldn't stop the steel fork with its teeth, and the deeper it got, the deeper the pain became, and he hissed and screamed, and the saliva, blood, and broken teeth fell to the ground.

But he remained silent, and when he arrived in such a field, he had nothing left but the last bit of dignity.

Wan Lun is a civil official after all" Although the yamen will also beat people to the bottom, but such an evil punishment still makes him feel terrified and very uncomfortable. However, it is difficult for him to ride a tiger, and if he retreats, he will be ruined, "I can only complete this errand and have a good future!"

Thinking of this, "he turned his heart sideways and went over to grab Hu Zongxian's hair...... Subconsciously, "He still wants him to reduce some pain, Hu Zongxian's words are still hovering in his head" He is the first Yushi to cooperate with Dongchang?

Biting his tongue hard, he ran those distracting thoughts to the back of his head" He asked viciously, "Do you recruit or not?" ”

"Move, what?" Hu Zongxian's eyes were half-open, and blood flowed from his mouth and said: "You have ironclad evidence, why do you want my confession?" ”

"You!" Wan Lun was furious, and scolded in his heart: , I can't find evidence" In fact, two years ago, he found Hu Zongxian's forged holy decree, but the above asked him to ask Hu Zongxian about the beginning and end of Hu Zongxian's release of Wang Zhizhi, especially with whom! It took him two years to do this, and he also found a lot of clues at that time! Even the former widows who participated in the robbery of official ships "have caught two or three."

But no matter what he tried by all means, he couldn't dig out any valuable inside information, let alone find evidence of who Hu Zongxian was in contact with back then. He also complained to Shang Feng why he had to find evidence in this regard, the existing evidence alone was enough to make Hu Zongxian die eight times.

But the boss didn't give an explanation, and still ordered him to continue searching. Wan Lun also gradually understood that it turned out that the drunkard did not mean to drink, and Hu Zongxian, who had already become a master, was not the target of the top at all, what they wanted to rectify was another character. can be so valued from above, and is qualified enough to conspire with Hu Zongxian" The identity of that person was called out.

Bailun also believes that Hu Zongxian will definitely discuss with Shen Mo about such a major event as sī letting Wang Zhi go, so he will definitely leave clues. It's like knowing the "answer", but lacking arguments to support it, and what you have to do is "find the evidence, so that the whole set of design can be completed!"

One, one, r, one

"Let me ask you, in March of the 41st year of Jiajing, the fleet escorting Wang Zhi into Beijing was robbed, 130 officers and soldiers died, and Wang Zhi fled into the sea!" , Wan Lun finally tore off his disguise, and asked chiluǒluǒ: "What role did you play in it!" "That incident, it is said that Wang Zhiyizi did it............" Hu Zongxian took a mouthful of blood and gritted his teeth: "It is Wang Bengu who is responsible for escorting, and the ground in Shandong is not under my control, how do I know?" ”

"Even the boat and the soldiers" are all your Hu Zongxian's subordinates! How could such a secret operation be known to the Wakos? Unless you're deliberately leaking the news! Wan Lun stared at him fiercely.

"The soldiers and ships are sent to Wang Bengu, I can't control it, even I don't know when to leave" Hu Zongxian grinned a little hideously and smiled: "You should go and interrogate him and ask me what's the use!" ”

Seeing that his mouth was hard, and the two fans put on their hands, Hu Zongxian raised his head in pain, and then lowered his head violently, and the steel fork stabbed into the body, splashing blood. He screamed in pain and fainted.

"Wake him up......", Wan Lun's eyes were no longer struggling, and his voice was cold.

Doused with cold water, Hu Zongxian woke up slowly, Wan Lun looked at him embarrassed and miserable, and said quietly: "Look at you like this, like a dog whose backbone has been broken." ”

Hu Zongxian stared at him resentfully, his throat gurgling.

"This is the first punishment, you're like this, there are more than a dozen in the back, don't you still want to enjoy them one by one?" , Wan Lun lifted his hair and leaned closer and whispered: "Actually, if you don't say it, I also know that you deliberately leaked the news and let Wang Zhi go." But what I'm asking now is who gave the idea "If you name it, I promise you, you won't have to suffer any more torture, and you can even go back to your hometown for the rest of your life." ”

"Phew!" What answered him was Hu Zongxian's mouthful of blood and thick phlegm.

"Torture me!" Wan Lun was annoyed and angry, and while wiping away the phlegm on his face, he said hysterically: ", I use all eighteen huā things, I'll see how long he can last!" ”
