Vomit...vomit...the sound of vomiting came from the yamen of the three guards of the prince. Peng Qi was sweating coldly but still poured the bucket in his hand on the woman's face. The water flowed into her nostrils through the gauze, causing her to choke.

The woman who was dying coughed, and more water flowed from her throat, and she kept vomiting out.

Water torture, the seemingly gentle water turns into a cruel punishment when used just right. Zhao Zhen looked at the woman who was struggling and being tortured coldly: "It's almost done. Let her reply."

Peng Qigan, who was not shocked by Wang Li's death, swallowed his saliva and wondered in his heart, how did my grandfather, the prince, know about such a powerful method?

He pulled the woman's hair and lifted her up. In Peng Qi's eyes, there was no distinction between men and women as long as they were enemies. This woman almost got the prince into trouble, and she actually had thirty people in her hands. How could she have any mercy when dealing with such a person?

"I already know that you are Concubine Yang Xian, tell me why she did this?"

The woman smiled miserably and kept making coughing sounds, spitting out greenish-brown bile: "Your Highness, the Crown Prince, knows everything, why do you ask this slave?"

"Do you still want to try it? That's enough for you, Peng Qi, continue!"

The woman was pushed down, and the water hit her pretty face again. Zhao Zhen knew the horror of waterboarding. Although he had not experienced it quietly, there must be a reason for this kind of punishment to be regarded as a torture tool by the US military in later generations.

The horror of waterboarding lies in the psychology. It makes the prisoner feel like he is about to drown. Death is not scary. What is scary is the feeling of experiencing death. Waterboarding makes people feel the helplessness and despair of struggling before drowning.

The woman's body was twitching continuously, as if she was about to break free from the chains. Peng Qi looked at Zhao Zhen: "Is your Highness almost done? If this continues, she may die."

"Oh, I was stunned just now. Pull her up."

After hearing the prince's words, Peng Qi quickly stopped what he was doing, pulled the woman up and said, "You'd better do it quickly. Why should a good little lady suffer like this?"

The woman was already dying, and Zhao Zhen couldn't bear it, but when he thought about the thirty burnt corpses, he became angry again.

The torture of waterboarding has taken away her reason: "I said, I said, stop pouring water..."

Once the psychological defense line is broken, it will completely collapse, and all the secrets will be known to him. Zhao Zhen wants to see how poisonous the conspiracy of the femme fatale in the palace is.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince already knows that I am Concubine Yang Xian's servant. Can't you see that the slave's arson this time was all for His Highness the Crown Prince?"

"A joke just for Gu? How can you gain anything for Gu with your weird tricks?"

The woman sneered and said: "If you can, this little trick is to help you eliminate possible threats! Your Highness, does he know why your eighth uncle refuses to open the door? It's not because he is afraid of someone deliberately framed, but because of the nature of Prince Rong's palace.

Not clean!”

"What?!" Zhao Zhen was stunned by the ridicule of the woman in front of him. He didn't expect that the eighth uncle who had always shown strictness and inviolability in front of outsiders was such a person. No wonder he said that he should surround Prince Rong's palace and let the fire burn everything.

.

Although he already believed something in his heart, Zhao Zhen still wanted to learn the details from the mouth of the maid in front of him: "You are just saying nothing, how can you prove that King Rong has disobedient intentions?"

"Of course there is. Does Your Highness know that there is something in the palace of Prince Rong that the officials of the Song Dynasty covet?"

Peng Qi on the side sneered: "What a joke, the official is rich all over the world, what can he dream of?"

"Of course! Does the prince know that he is destined to live a long and prosperous life?"

"The Imperial Seal?!"

The maid's words immediately made Zhao Zhen stunned, and Peng Qi on the side opened his mouth in shock!

In the past dynasties, those who wanted to be emperors fought for each other. As a result, the imperial seal changed its owner many times and traveled around Chi County in China for more than two thousand years.

This piece of He's Bi that was carved into a jade seal experienced a rough life. The Duke of Pei and Liu Bang went to the army, and the infant knelt down holding the jade seal and presented it to the left side of Xianyang Road. The Qin Dynasty died. It is said that the national seal was passed to Liu Han.

At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, his relative Wang Mang usurped power. At that time, his son Liu Ying was young, and the seal was hidden in the Empress Dowager's residence in Changle Palace. Wang Mang sent his cousin Wang Shun to retrieve it. The Empress Dowager was angry and cut off the seal, and threw it to the ground, breaking one corner of it. Wang Mang ordered the craftsmen to

Gold makes up for it.

When Mang was defeated and killed, the Imperial Guards School Captain Gong Bin passed the imperial seal to Wan and presented it to Emperor Gengshi Liu Xuan. Afterwards, the imperial seal changed hands several times, including Emperor Guang of the Han Dynasty Liu Xiu, Sun Jian, Yuan Shu, Cao Cao, during the Southern Dynasties.

The Chuan Guo Xi passed through the Song, Qi, Liang and Chen generations. The Sui Dynasty unified China and the Chuan Guo Xi was collected in the Sui Palace.

Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty, Yang Guang, was killed in Jiangdu, and the Sui Dynasty fell. Empress Xiao took Emperor Yang Zhengdao of the Sui Dynasty, Sun Yang Zhengdao, and the Chuan Guo Xi to escape to the Mobei Turks. Since then, there has been no news. In the early Tang Dynasty, Taizong Li Shimin, because he did not have the Chuan Guo Xi,

Then he carved several jade "seals" such as "Ming Bao" and "Dingming Bao" to show that this was also what Taizu of the Song Dynasty did. There was no other way. If the quality was not good, quantity would win!

Li Jing led his army to attack the Turks. In the same year, Empress Xiao and Sun Yang Zhengdao, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, returned to the Central Plains with the Turks on their backs. The imperial seal passed to Li Tang, and Taizong Longyan was delighted. Now the imperial seal returned to the ancestral land of China, but at the end of the Tang Dynasty, it returned to the ancestral land of China.

It was the great chaos in the world and the great division of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms that caused the jade seals passed down to the country to disappear several times.

The closest thing to the Song Dynasty was when Shi Jingtang led the Khitan army to Luoyang, and the last emperor Li Congke climbed to the Xuanwu Tower and burned himself on the Xuanwu Tower with the Chuanguo Seal in his arms. The Chuanguo Seal disappeared without a trace, but now it is actually in the palace of Prince Rong, and this is Zhao

Zhen was most surprised.

Who dares to own the jade seal passed down to the country except the emperor of the dynasty? Although this thing is a small piece of jade, it represents the supremacy of imperial power, and the meaning of imperial power granted by heaven comes from this!

How dare Zhao Yuanyan secretly hide the imperial seal? Could it be that he has a disobedient heart and wants to use this square jade seal to make a fuss!

"How can you, a little maid, spy on the secrets of the palace? Besides, how do you know that the imperial seal in Zhao Yuanyan's hand is genuine?"

"Haha, doesn't His Royal Highness know that there is a saying that you make a mistake while drunk?"

The woman smiled and said to Zhao Zhen: "This slave is originally a substitute trained by Concubine Yang Xian. She has been hiding in her palace for so many years. But one day she was bumped into by Zhao Yunliang and was asked to go to the palace by him. Concubine Yang Xian was hit by him.

’s intentions.

The father and son are a pair of beasts, but they actually take turns doting on me. Zhao Yuanyan seems to be resolute and serious, but he is an out-and-out lustful ghost!

His secret room is in the back garden. I overheard what he said while drunk. I was originally placed next to Zhao Yunliang by Concubine Yang Xian. Who would have thought that I would encounter such a good thing? Of course I couldn't miss it. After finding the key and entering the secret room, I saw a person facing him.

It is engraved with the characters "Ordered by God to live long and prosperous", and the ring is engraved with the pattern of "two dragons playing with pearls", and there are three lines in the shape of ocean waves at the bottom.

Your Highness, what do you mean by this? Even if it’s not true, Zhao Yuanyan can’t escape his involvement!”

Zhao Zhen and Peng Qi looked at each other dumbfounded. They didn't expect that this eighth uncle was really old and strong, and could still be a lustful ghost at such an old age. It is true that only women and villains are difficult to raise.

The disheveled maid in front of him was actually able to reveal Zhao Yuanyan's secrets.

"Does Zhao Yuanyan know about you?"

"How could this old pervert know? He just knew that I set the fire. He was afraid that the Imperial Army would discover the secret room when they put out the fire."

"That's very good. Peng Qi will imprison her, and we will go to send warmth to Concubine Yang Xian at night!" Zhao Zhen said with a smile.

Now it was the maid's turn to be surprised: "You won't kill me?"

"Gu's anger comes from the death of thirty innocent lives. Zhao Yuanyan closed the door and refused to save him. Although you are guilty and deserve to die, it is better to give you to Concubine Yang Xian!"
