Chapter 478

The bandit case is going on closely.

Yao Yangcheng, the Minister of justice of the Ministry of punishment, fan Zhiming, the imperial historian, and Zhang Zan, the Minister of Dali temple, came to the prison of the Ministry of punishment together with CAI Jie.

The prison of the Ministry of punishment is a dungeon, where there is only one exit. At present, it is guarded by the forbidden army, that is, the Shangshu Yao Yangcheng has to be followed by the forbidden army, which is very strict.

"Squeak -" the door of the prison of the Ministry of punishment was opened. The dark stone stairs have long been illuminated by torches on both sides.

"Father in law, please." Yao Yangcheng smiled and gestured.

"Oh, you're welcome." CAI Jie smiled and walked ahead.

Several people followed with their subordinates and walked down the steps one by one. Below was a stone house. Behind the stone house was a long corridor, which led to each cell. There was a faint cry from inside.

Two yamen messengers were sitting at the table in the stone house. When they saw several people coming down, they jumped up and saluted: "see Duke Cai, Lord Yao, Lord Zhang and Lord fan."

"Well, don't be polite." CAI Jie gently brushed the dust“ Where is Hong Guangshou now? "

Yao Yangcheng said, "at this time, it's time to whip regularly in the prison on the right."

"Did they say that?" Zhang Zan said.

One of them said, "Lord Hui, Hong Guangshou and Yu Hui are hard bones. You can't pry your mouth open."

"Oh?" CAI Jie smiled gently“ What about the remaining party who recruited Shi Xiaoquan? "

"It was originally in the prison on the left. Later, after confessing, he was locked back in prison." Yamcha said.

CAI Jie's gray eyebrows picked: "pull him to the cell on the right and join Hong guangshouguan."

Zhang Zan was stunned. Yao Yangcheng hurriedly said, "don't go soon."

"Yes." The Yamen Chai promised and turned to go out.

Yao Yangcheng's heart beat and said anxiously, "father-in-law, this is to..."

"Hum, I wonder if the people below have confessed. Can he resist it?" Father Cai sneered.

"Your father-in-law's name, Hei hei." Fan Zhiming smiled“ Let's go to see the punishment now. "

Zhang Zan said, "let's hide in the dark and have a quiet look at the hard bone."

"Yes." Father Cai thought so, too.

Yao Yang's heart was a little uneasy for a moment, and he only smiled: "please come this way, father-in-law."

Next to the prison is the prison observation room, where you can see everything in the prison through the observation hole, but you can't see it here.

The prison was hot and messy.

Bright and hot torches were burning beside the wall, and two people were tied to the shelf with bare upper bodies.

A thin man with a shawl was found hanging his head silently, and his messy and dirty hair stained together.

The man next to him looked like an old man, but he was strong. He hung his head like a thin man, covered by his hair and couldn't see his face clearly.

The two men, the former is Yu Hui, the military master of the bandits, and the latter is Hong Guangshou, the leader of the bandits.

The two have been locked up here for nearly half a month. Their bodies are full of knife wounds and whip marks.

"Hey!" An angry cry rang out, but a yamen messenger opposite them was greeting Hong Guangshou with a tip.

But Hong Guangshou hung his head and didn't even hum.

With a "squeak", the prison door was opened. Two more yamen guards dragged a blood man in and looked at Zuo Bai in his early twenties. His face was so polluted by blood that he couldn't see clearly. Finally, he was tied to Yu Hui.

"Sobbing... Don't hit me... I've done it all... I've done it..." the bloody man sobbed while he was tied to the shelf by the yam Chai.

Hearing the sound, Hong Guangshou raised his head, "are you..."

"Wuwu... Emperor..." the bloody man saw Hong Guangshou, but his eyes brightened, and then full of panic and remorse, "Emperor... You're still alive... You actually... Ah! What have I done! "

"Bah! Who is the emperor? " The Yamen Chai on one side shouted angrily, holding a plate of salt water in his hand and making a crash, and watched the bloody man spill over“ A nest of mobs and a nest of bandits call themselves the emperor. "

"Ah ah -" the bloody man screamed in pain.

"Hey, emperor? The emperor! Oh! Look, I beat you to death! " A pudgy yamen gave a Pooh, picked up the sharp whip in his hand and looked at Hong Guangshou. He couldn't stop smoking.

"Ah -" Hong Guangshou was used to being beaten, and he was silent.

But just looked at the bloody man and smelled a word. It was like a ball that had been stretched for so long and suddenly vented. At the beginning, it was uncontrollable and screamed with pain.

"Ah ah - don't fight again, sobbing..." the bloody man screamed and collapsed in pain. He obviously recruited everything. Why did he fight. If not, Hong Guangshou will not recruit with Hong Guangshou as the spiritual pillar. But now, it's too late!

Everything was called. If he hit him again, he couldn't stand it and collapsed instantly: "the man in the portrait called us, that's him..."

"Shut up!" Hong Guangshou roared.

The bloody man had been beaten incoherently: "it's Zhenxi hou... Zhenxi hou... It's him... Ah..."

Hong Guangshou's eyes widened: "you bastard, talk nonsense again... I'll kill you..."

"You still kill me! You can't protect yourself. Give it back to me! " The pudgy yam Chai spat again, and then smoked desperately.

"Enough... Cough..." a cough sounded, but Yu Hui said, "all... Everything is over. Please have a good time!"

"You, you bastard..." Hong Guangshou roared, "Yu Hui... You, you said you wanted to help me... You, you... How can we recognize it."

"Yes... Have a good time! Give me a good time! " The bloody man shouted, "I've recruited all of them. It's the Duke of Zhenxi who ordered us."

"Bah, how dare you slander the Duke of Zhenxi." The short and fat yamen gave a fierce Pooh.

But the bloody man was talking nonsense. Hong Guangshou then laughed: "OK, boys, I have the seed to kill your grandpa."

In one side of the viewing room, CAI Jie and others saw the situation clearly through the wall hole.

"Look, it's Zhenxi Hou." Yao Yangcheng's face was full of cold.

Zhang Zan frowned deeply: "how to say, father-in-law, the lower official has something to say."

"Lord Zhang, tell me what you have. Although you are a relative of Zhenxi Hou, Lord Yao still doesn't deal with Zhenxi Hou. We've all called. We'll say whatever we have and neutralize it." CAI Jie smiled.

Yao Yangcheng's old face stiffened for a moment, only ha ha twice.

Zhang Zan said, "how did the bloody man know that Shi Xiaoquan was ordered by the Duke of Zhenxi? At that time, Xiao Shiquan was masked. Finally, the bloody man only gave the picture, and did not point out that it was Shi Xiaoquan, the people around the West Hou of the town. "

Yao Yangcheng sneered: "because we just deliberately lured him into the game, we told him that the masked man was the man of Zhenxi Hou and whipped him for a long time. He already thought so in his heart. So when I came here, I couldn't hold my head. Naturally, I opened my mouth and said the Marquis of Zhenxi. Although we are not sure whether it was really done by Zhenxi Hou, we can use this to test Hong Guangshou. Now, look, as soon as you try, you come out! It's really him. "

Zhang Zan shook his head: "Hong Guangshou and Yu Hui are first-class smart people. We suddenly dragged the bloody man to their side and whipped them. Aren't they alert? They must know that we were testing him, so we deliberately echoed your meaning and said it was Zhenxi Hou, in order to frame Zhenxi Hou. After all, that's the one who put them in prison. It's the one who ruined their plans. "

The censor's doctor fan Zhiming was stunned and nodded: "Lord Zhang is right. If Hong Guangshou had such a brain, he would not have been out of the bad situation, but he would have harmed us for several years. Finally, even Wu Yiyi, the commander of the Jingwei camp, was destroyed by him. "

Yao Yangcheng sank his face and sneered: "when they were tempted while drinking tea and chatting in the palace? These days, they have been tortured and their spirit has long been on the verge of collapse. Now someone has confessed. Their spirit and body have been tortured. How can they stand it? "

Fan Zhiming and Zhang Zan frowned and looked at Grandpa CAI.

Cai Gong said fairly, "the miscellaneous family will go back and tell the emperor about it. Everything will be decided by the emperor."

Yao Yangcheng, Zhang Zan and others were stunned and quickly nodded: "father-in-law is right."

After all, Zhenxi marquis is related to the safety of the Qi Dynasty. Naturally, Emperor Zhengxuan made a decision himself. If emperor Zhengxuan was not seriously ill now, he might have to come to trial in person.
