Chapter 79 Confession
Zhao Tong nodded when he heard this: "Mr. Zhong, arrest him and put him in jail."
Zhou Abao was so excited that his body trembled a little. He was a doctor from the Ministry of Punishment, wearing a scarlet suit and hanging a fish bag. He was a little scared when he thought of this, but with such an alternation of water and fire, his heart actually became excited.
After a while, bursts of yelling and cursing came from the courtyard, which was obviously different from the previous cries and shouts of the Yuanwai Lang and others, but no matter what, they set up swords and guns and rushed to the prison differently?
After a while, the prison warden came over with the jailer and displayed several simple torture instruments that had been prepared. Zhao Tong went over to check them out, and the guard also peeked at them.
Zhao Tong pointed to something that looked like a wooden horse and said: "This, the top corner is too straight, replace it with a curved one, and use the strong wine to wash it and disinfect it."
Then he pointed to a bench and said: "The wooden plank you are leaning on is too smooth. Put some iron nails on it. It doesn't need to be too long. As long as it can penetrate the flesh and not kill people, it can also be disinfected by washing it with salt and boiling water."
."
The officer's face turned green when he looked at it. To be able to conduct espionage in Tokyo, he must have a lot of knowledge. Even if he doesn't have it, he must have done all kinds of training before coming to get a rough idea of the punishment activities in the Song Dynasty. Otherwise, if
How can you survive the severe punishment if you show your flaws?
But what he had heard before coming here was not the case. The Song Dynasty was a refined country, and even though they were punished with severe punishments, in the end they were mainly bribed. It was probably because I refused to be beaten with a whip on the first day, and I refused to use a soldering iron on the second day.
, the order of sending a beautiful woman to me on the third day, why is it not like this now?
Zhao Tong commented on the torture tools. At this moment, not to mention the officers, even the prison guards were fighting with each other. Zhao Tong then ordered: "Just use it first. If you really don't want to use it, I will think about it carefully.
I, He Shan, cannot bear to see so much cruelty. Thinking of such things would pollute the mind of Bodhi Mirror."
When the member heard this, he almost rolled his eyes and fainted. How dare you say that you have the heart of the Bodhi Mirror? You are lying, right? You are the Bodhi Mirror!
Zhao Tong didn't even look at him, said "Torture", and walked out of the room with something in mind.
Although the letter was written in a hesitant way, it could completely confirm the identity of this foreign Xixia spy, and this foreigner's status was not low, and he was a figure from the Xixia Beifeng Hall.
Xixia Beifeng Hall is the place where the Xixia National Secret Service trains elite spies. This person is from Beifeng Hall and is not an ordinary spy. He should be a leader in Tokyo City and must know the news about other spies.
Xixia has been weak in recent years, so all kinds of spies are pervasive. However, neither the court nor the military has specific regulations for this kind of thing. The speed room of the Privy Council is also in place, and it is not as good as the one in the frontier army.
Jiyi Division.
Zhao Tong thought as he walked, this kind of thing is very complicated, and it also involves the Ministry of Punishment. I wonder if there is a big fish in the Ministry of Punishment. He doesn't have time to care about it at the moment. The dog fighting business is getting messier and more complicated, and the time is wasted.
More, just hand it over to see if there are any benefits.
"Your Majesty, someone from the Criminal Department is here again." Niu Abao ran over sweating profusely.
"Didn't I ask you to be arrested?" Zhao Tong said.
Niu Abao wiped his forehead and said: "Subordinate, subordinate... This time the person coming is a famous minister. The prince is not present, so I really don't dare to arrest him."
Zhao Tong glanced at him and thought to himself that after all, these forbidden soldiers had concerns and concerns. If this cow Abao was a famous mountain and water robber, let alone the minister, even the minister and the prime minister dared to take it like a pig and sheep, then he would be the emperor.
I dare to pull him down.
He said: "Let me see."
Niu Abao was a little frustrated. He felt that he had not handled this matter well. He had thought about it a lot before, but finally did not dare to do it. The soldiers below may not be afraid of what happens to the officials and gentlemen afterwards, but he has everyone on his side. Once something happens,
No matter, you can still find him if you look for him, but now you start to regret it again, feeling that you are a little too forward-thinking. There is nothing in the world that can please others without offending others.
When he arrived at Muzhamen, Zhao Tong looked out and saw Wu Qunshu, the right minister of the Ministry of Punishment, followed by many people, including some servants of the Ministry of Punishment.
Zhao Tong glanced at the soldiers he brought with him and said, "Open the fence and line up."
The Gyeonggi Forbidden Army originally had little combat power, but after practicing for many hours, even if it was just running, the energy and blood in the body was stimulated. These days, they have been clenching their fists from time to time, and the muscles in their legs are as tight as iron, and they feel that they are not strong enough.
Spread.
At this moment, he listened to the order, opened the fence, and with a "hoo!" sound, the wolves came out of the nest, and immediately surrounded the people from the Criminal Department.
Wu Qunshu didn't panic when he saw this. He looked like a white-faced scholar and was usually serious about speech. When he reached this position, even if he really gave the impression of being happy and angry, most of it was fake.
He saluted Zhao Tong from a distance: "Your Majesty Wu Qunshu has met the King of Qi."
Zhao Tong nodded. Three groups of people from the Criminal Department disappeared in the military prison. It would be strange if Wu Qunshu didn't know he was here.
"Your Majesty, I went to the Guards Department to see the Prince before, so I brought people here and wanted to take the liberty to ask the officials in the Criminal Department how they were doing. If they really contradicted the Prince, I will leave immediately. After the Prince vents his anger,
I'll deal with them later!" Wu Qunshu said respectfully.
Zhao Tong squinted at him, unable to find anything wrong with his words, he said: "Who asked you to come?"
Wu Qunshu was stunned when he heard this. He is the left minister of the Ministry of Punishment. Logically speaking, he can make the final decision on many things in the Ministry of Punishment. No one needs to give orders. Even if the Minister of Punishment imposes some tasks on him, he does not have to do them.
"Your Majesty, this matter was reported to the police. After a brief inquiry, I found out that no one was responsible for it." Wu Qunshu was neither humble nor overbearing.
"No one asked me to do it." Zhao Tong nodded: "Okay, arrest him."
He turned around and left. Wu Qunshu frowned: "Your Majesty, what mistake did this officer make? I want to arrest him in this military prison."
Zhao Tong paused for a moment, turned around and said with a smile: "Shilang Wu, it's not easy to sit in this position, isn't it? I have been a child and enlightened, ten years of cold window, hanging beams are bone-piercing, reading at night, roll-calling Donghua Gate, and the golden list of catching a son-in-law, all the way
How can the ups and downs of an official career be explained by hard work?"
Wu Qunshu's heart sank when he heard this, and said: "The lower official came from a humble background, not even close to a poor family. He just studied hard and understood the teachings of the saints. He never thought that he would be a farmer in the morning and ascend to the emperor's hall in the evening. From then on, he worked harder and worked harder everywhere.
As if walking on thin ice, I have been thinking about my own mistakes and reflecting on myself every day for more than ten years. If I have offended the prince in any way today, I would like to ask the prince to tell me. I will correct my omissions and be vigilant every day."
Zhao Tong shook his head. He was not willing to pay attention to his long speech. He could not reason with these people, because these people had studied the so-called "principles" for hundreds of thousands of years. They followed the "principles" step by step and never departed from "Principles".
The word "principle".
