Chapter 1070 Although the minister is stupid, he dare not obey the edict (2)
"Old man Yang, don't toast and refuse to eat fine wine!"
The **** in the red python robe heard Yang Zui's words, his face turned blue with anger, and the pinched orchid fingers trembled badly.
"I'm getting old, so I don't drink at all." Yang Zui raised his chin, glanced at the **** in the red python robe from the corner of his eyes, and replied lightly, not being threatened by the **** in the scarlet python robe at all.
"You! Since you don't eat the toast, then don't blame it." The **** in the red python robe said harshly. Although the emperor ordered him to come and ask Yang Zui if he knew his mistakes, if Yang Zui knew his mistakes and could correct them, it would be a good thing, but he has been in Jiajing all year round. Serving in front of the emperor, he couldn't be more clear about Emperor Jiajing's true thoughts. Yang most had to admit his mistakes, if Yang most refused to admit his mistakes, Emperor Jiajing would always have a thorn in his throat, and his errands would not be done well. Therefore, I must play it by ear, otherwise how to report to the Holy One and how to repay the trust of the Holy One.
"Grandpa Chen, wait a moment, let me persuade you." Before the big red python finished his harsh words, Tuo Hai, the fellow-prefect of Jin Yiwei, spoke up.
Eunuch Chen?
The **** in the scarlet python robe could not be Chen Hong, could he? ! Zhu Pingan, who was in the cell beside him, heard what Tuohai called the **** in the big red python robe, and subconsciously guessed in his heart. After thinking about it, he probably felt that it was Chen Hong.
I heard that Chen Hong has a good relationship with Gao Gong? According to unofficial history records, in the next ten years or so, Gao Gong will serve as a bachelor. When Feng Bao and Chen Hong competed for the eunuch, Gao Gong recommended Chen Hong to be the eunuch. For this reason, Feng Bao's hatred of Gao Gong grew day by day.
However, looking at Chen Hong's sour face, he doesn't look like a good person at all. How did Gao Gong fall in love with him? !
While Zhu Pingan was thinking, Jin Yiwei's acquaintance Tuo Hai spoke up. He admired Yang Zui's integrity and couldn't bear to punish Yang Zui, so he opened his mouth to guide Yang Zui, "Master Yang, Tuo has heard about Yang Zui before." In the name of your loyalty and filial piety, tomorrow will be the thirteenth day of July, and the ancestors of the Yang family are still waiting for the paper money from Mr. Yang. Mr. Yang can't change his words, as long as Mr. Yang obeys the sage's instructions and presents a letter of confession Zou Shu, Lord Yang can leave the Imperial Prison and return to the residence immediately."
Jin Yiwei's fellow acquaintance, Tuo Haidong, uses love to understand reason, and uses Yang Zui's loyalty and filial piety as a breakthrough point to attack Yang Zui.
If it was an ordinary person, Jin Yiwei Tuohai's words must have worked, but unfortunately he met Yang Zui.
"Although the minister is stupid, he dare not obey the imperial edict."
Yang Zuizai Tuohai's words had just finished speaking, and he refused resolutely with his neck stuck, without being moved at all.
"Toast, don't eat fine wine!" The **** in the red python robe had a gloomy expression on his face.
"Master Yang, think again. Tomorrow is the thirteenth day of the seventh month." Jin Yiwei's fellow acquaintance Tuo Hai couldn't bear it, and tried to persuade him again.
"Don't think about it anymore, the word loyalty and filial piety, the word loyalty comes first, and the word filial piety comes after. If the old man violates his will and sins, I am afraid that the ancestors and ancestors will also scold me as an unworthy descendant in the underground. It is shameless to pay homage to the ancestors. Master Tuo, there is no need to persuade me anymore, although I am stupid, I cannot be called."
Yang shook his head without any hesitation, and even closed his eyes after speaking, expressing his determination.
"Master Yang" Jin Yiwei's fellow acquaintance Takumi still didn't want to give up.
However, the red python-robed **** at the side became impatient, "Lord Tuo, don't waste your time talking with him. Your Majesty is still waiting for the Zajia to return, and the Zajia has no time to spend with him."
"Eunuch Chen, what you say makes sense." Jin Yiwei Tong Zhi Tuo Hai sighed in his heart and nodded.
"Come here, open the cell door and bring out Yang Zui." The **** in the red python robe raised his hand to his shoulder, swung it forward forcefully, and ordered in a high-pitched voice.
Zhao prison officer, after obtaining the consent of Jin Yiwei Tong Zhi Tuohai, took the key from his waist and opened the door of Yang Zui's cell. Two officers walked in and lifted Yang Zui out of the cell with arms crossed.
"Old man Yang, if you don't eat the toast, don't blame the miscellaneous family for punishing the wine." The **** in the red python robe said sadly.
"So much nonsense." Yang Zui raised his chin and snorted.
"You!" The **** in the red boa robe trembled angrily, looked at Yang Zui with a half-smile, and said eccentrically, "Okay! Old man Yang, you are doing well! The miscellaneous family heard that you have always been known for being straightforward and tough. In the past few years, there are not a few officials who have been persuaded by you, so today, the miscellaneous family will have to see how straight your old man Yang's bones can be? How hard can they be?!"
After finishing speaking, the **** in the red python robe turned his head and looked at Jin Yiwei's fellow acquaintance Tuo Hai with a smile, squeezed his throat and said, "Master Tuo, the miscellaneous family has always heard that the punishment in the prison is cruel and inhumane, with fingers, sticks, skinning, tongues, spines, etc. There are as many as 18 kinds, such as falling finger, piercing heart, pipa, etc. It is said that there are many new creations. People will try these punishments one by one, so that the eyes of miscellaneous people will be opened."
Yang heard the words the most, he was not afraid at all, and his expression was as usual.
Zhu Pingan, who was in the cell next to him, couldn't help worrying about Mr. Yang. The torture instruments in the prison are inhumane, and the 18 tortures are the worst among them. It's a punishment that requires skinning even if you don't die. Mr. Yang He is so old and in poor health, how can he bear it, not to mention trying the eighteen tortures one by one, even if he tried any one of them, Mr. Yang might not be able to endure it.
"Old Yang."
Zhu Ping'an couldn't help shouting, and began to persuade Yang Zui.
"Zhu boy, I know what you want to say, but the three armies can win the commander, but the general cannot lose the ambition."
Yang looked at Zhu Ping'an the most, shook his head firmly, and interrupted Zhu Ping'an's persuasion.
"Get on the instrument of torture."
The **** in the big red python robe waved his hand, ordering the guards to move eighteen kinds of instruments of torture from the torture room, ready to torture Yang Zui, beat him into a trick, and made him admit his mistake.
"Eunuch Chen, Mr. Tuo, Mr. Yang is already old. How can Mr. Yang bear such torture?"
Zhu Pingan saw that Yang Zui was not persuaded, so he turned to the red python robe **** and Jin Yiwei Tongzhi as Yang Zui to intercede.
"Zhu Ping'an, you are like a bodhisattva crossing the river, so you can't protect yourself, so don't meddle in other people's business, just ask yourself for good luck." The **** in red python robe glanced at Zhu Ping'an, and said sarcastically.
"Eunuch Chen, Zhu Ping'an's words are not without reason. Look at Yang Zui, his beard and hair are all white, and half of his body has been buried in the ground. I'm afraid he can't stand any of our eighteen martial arts. I'm afraid it's only here." Torture tool, you didn’t even have time to ask him, he died, even if he wanted to correct his mistake, it would be too late, why not,” Jin Yiwei’s Tong Zhi Tuo Hai approached the big red python robed eunuch’s ear, and said in a low voice.
"This..." The **** in the big red python robe glanced at Yang Zui and nodded, "You are right, but you can't let this old man be too happy. He was furious. How about this, put on the torture rod first, and loosen his muscles and bones."
Jin Yiwei and Zhi Takumi nodded.
Soon, two guards pressed Yang Zui to the ground on the spot, and swung their torture sticks at Yang Zui's buttocks, hitting Yang Zui's buttocks hard.
"Old man Yang, the Holy Majesty asks you, do you know your mistake?" The **** in the red python robe asked sharply while watching the execution.
"Although the minister is stupid, he dare not obey the imperial edict. The minister is stupid, but he dare not obey the imperial edict." Yang Zui was very stubborn. Although his buttocks were bloodstained, he didn't cry out in pain, but kept chanting this sentence.
The **** in the scarlet python robe asked over and over again, and what he heard was always the same sentence, "Although the minister is stupid, he dare not obey the edict."
"Looking for death! Hit me hard, beat me to death!" The **** in the big red python robe became furious and said ruthlessly.
The servants worked even harder, and Yang Zui's buttocks were full of blood and flesh.
"Although the minister is stupid, he dare not obey the edict"
Yang Zui's breath became weaker and weaker, and this murmur became weaker and weaker, until there was no more sound.
The jailer stepped forward, touched Yang Zui's breath with shaking hands, felt Yang Zui's pulse, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, raised his head and shook his head at Jin Yiwei Tong Zhi Tuo Hai and the red python robe eunuch, "He's gone."
At the end of the song, the cell was quiet again.
"Although the minister is stupid, he dare not obey the edict"
Zhu Pingan sat on the ground in a daze, staring blankly at the empty cell next door, with this sentence lingering in his mind all the time.
