Chapter 38 The Influence of the Three Tribes of Hedong(1/2)
The woman came in timidly.
After seeing the room full of torture instruments, his face showed panic.
"Han Shulan, a civilian girl, pays homage to the governor."
Han Shulan bowed down and bowed down to Fang Yuan.
The graceful body is trembling slightly.
Her pitiful appearance, coupled with her beauty, makes people feel lovable.
"Han Shulan, have you seen the torture instruments in the room?"
Fang Yuan said calmly.
"Look...I saw it."
Han Shulan's voice became trembling.
He glanced at the torture instruments in the room again, and his face became even whiter.
"You are a poor person. I don't want to make things difficult for you. As long as you answer truthfully, I will not torture you."
"Do you know how Ruan Jingjing died?"
Fang Yuan said calmly.
Ruan Jingjing is another courtesan who committed suicide by biting her tongue.
She is quite famous in Yingxiang Tower and even in Liaozhou City, and the information is easy to find.
"People... women of the people don't know very well."
Han Shulan lowered her head and said tremblingly.
"Did you just see that Qin Liangcai was arrested?"
"Your Yingxiang Tower will no longer be able to open. If what you tell us is useful, I will sell my body and give it back to you."
Fang Yuan still said calmly.
In ancient times, women in brothels signed contracts to sell themselves.
The deed of sale carries legal obligations, making them almost like slaves.
"I, I, I..."
Han Shulan struggled with her eyes, seeming to be entangled.
Fang Yuan frowned and slapped the table hard.
With a snap, Han Shulan was startled, and Du Miaoyan was also frightened.
"Don't force me to torture you!"
Fang Yuan said coldly.
Two jailors outside the interrogation room heard the sound of banging on the table and came in.
Han Shulan thought she was being tortured, and her pale face was as frightened as a blank sheet of paper.
"I recruit, I recruit, I recruit..."
Fang Yuan nodded with satisfaction and waved the two jailers to retreat.
Under the combination of kindness and power, the little courtesan still obeyed.
"Ruan Jingjing has a sister who is also in Yingxiang Tower. She is just twelve years old this year. Because Ruan Jingjing is an oiran, she can have two maids to serve her. The maid of the oiran does not need to greet the guests."
"This time Ruan Jingjing bit her tongue and committed suicide. I vaguely heard the person telling her that if she bit her tongue and committed suicide, her sister would be free, and then...then she would..."
Han Shulan sighed.
Because both of them were oirans, they were in tandem when they were in the team, so Han Shulan heard what that person said.
This is why Fang Yuan tried Han Shulan from the beginning, and this is also one of the reasons.
"Who is that person?"
Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.
The notes I was writing in my hand also stopped.
"The thug of Yingxiang Tower, Sun Erwang."
Han Shulan gritted her teeth and whispered.
Qin Liangcai was arrested, otherwise she would not dare to say anything.
"Is there any act of forcing girls into prostitution in Yingxianglou?"
Fang Yuan nodded with satisfaction, asked someone to catch Sun Erwang, and continued to ask.
"How could it not be?"
"I am a case."
Han Shulan looked miserable and said with red eyes.
"Please tell me in detail."
Fang Yuan frowned and said in a deep voice.
Han Shulan seemed to be thinking of something sad, and her tears fell.
She mentioned the past, talking about a family of three who were poor but happy. However, God was not kind and a flood killed both her parents. She was forced to beg to make a living.
Then she was discovered by a brothel and forced to sign a deed of selling her body for 100 yuan, and she became a prostitute. A few years later, the woman who sold her body became an oiran, but the price of selling her body increased from 100 yuan to 100 yuan.
Fang Yuan nodded, expressionless, and refused to comment.
But Du Miaoyan behind them was different. They were both overflowing with sympathy and their eyes were wet.
Seeing that the questions were almost finished, Fang Yuan asked someone to take Han Shulan back and prepared to have the madam brought over.
But at this moment, Zhang San came over looking slightly flustered.
"President, I am glad to hear that Pei Yinghua, the Pei family, is here."
Zhang San said in a low voice.
"He comes as soon as he comes, what's so surprising?"
Fang Yuan said disapprovingly.
I was happy to hear about the brothel incident that Pei was not here, so it was normal for him to arrest Qin Liangcai.
After all, it is well known to outsiders that Qin Liangcai is from the third surname Yahang, that is, from the three tribes of Hedong.
It is normal for them to come to ask for someone after he has arrested them. Within Fang Yuan's expectation, it is not worth making a fuss about.
"Not only is he here, but all the famous shopkeepers in the city are here, more than thirty people."
Zhang San said in a low voice.
Not only the people who liked hearing about the Pei family were shocked, but also the shopkeepers of the big stores in the city.
They are related to Liaozhou City's economy and people's livelihood issues, and even the governor has to give them face.
"Huh, are you here to force me to have a baby?"
Fang Yuan snorted and sneered.
"Zun Zhou, leave this to me. You can deal with it first?"
Zhang San suggested.
He can't handle Mr. Pei.
Not to mention the shopkeepers of more than 30 big stores in the city.
"Okay, I'll write it down on it, I'll leave it to you."
Fang Yuan pondered for a moment and said calmly.
What you want to know has been learned from Han Shulan.
It would be better if we could ask more about other additional questions, but there is no need for Fang Yuan to interrogate them personally.
"Yes."
Zhang Sanying is.
Take over Fang Yuan’s interrogation position.
Fang Yuan stood up and left, and Du Miaoyan and the others followed in stride.
The front yard hall of the Governor's Mansion.
The hall was very noisy when Fang Yuan arrived.
Among them, only Pei Yinghua sat silently.
Others were standing and talking, as if Fang Yuan was going too far.
