Honglixuan raised his eyebrows and said, "So, you are planning to protect your master? Well, I will give you this opportunity to show your loyalty." At this point, his voice turned cold, "Xiao Wu, take him with you.
Go to the Punishment Department and tell Kang Wei that as long as he doesn't die, he can use the punishment as he pleases."
"Hey!" Xiao Wu responded, walked up to the limp Mao Gui, and said with a half-smile: "Our family just went to see Li Jifeng, and even our family couldn't stand it. Now is the time.
You can see whether you can hold on longer or he can hold on longer."
Mao Gui shook his head hurriedly, broke away from Xiao Wu who was holding his arm, crawled to Hongli's feet, and said with a heavy cry: "No! Your Majesty, have mercy on me, please don't go to the Sentence Department!"
It is said that the Shenxing Division is an extremely terrifying existence. Once you step into there, you will endure endless torture, making people unable to survive or die!
Hongli didn't even look at him, but said coldly: "Take him down!"
Xiao Wu called in two palace men and ordered them to forcefully pull down Mao Gui, who was pleading. The following time was a nightmare for Mao Gui. Kang Wei did not use whips, sticks or sticks on him.
It was torture by cannon. The torture tools he brought up were just some steel needles and the like. It didn't look too scary, but the pain and torture it caused was far worse than that of a cane.
Mao Gui wished he could die.
In the Punishment Department, he also saw Li Jifeng, half-suspended in the air, with only his toes touching the ground. His body was covered with scars, and almost no intact place could be seen. But even so, he was still alive. During the torture, Mao
Gui even saw someone feeding him ginseng soup.
Naturally, the ginseng soup is not to replenish his body, but to hang his life. In other words, before asking, they... won't even allow you to die!
When death became a luxury wish, the kind of fear was unimaginable by others. When the severe pain of the steel needle pricking his finger hit him again, Mao Gui finally couldn't bear it anymore and said with cold sweat on his head: "
Take me...to see the emperor, I...I say!"
Seeing Mao Gui again, Hongli only said coldly, "If you don't say it again, you won't have to say it again in the future."
"The slave said, the slave said, I just want the emperor to give me a happy life!" Mao Gui half-lying on the ground, said weakly, he no longer dared to ask Hongli for mercy, because Hongli would not agree at all. He was just being careful.
After the criminal stayed there for a long time, all ten of his nails were gone, and there was a wound on the tip of each finger that had been pricked by a steel needle, and blood is still slowly oozing out.
Mao Gui gritted his teeth and said, "Li Jifeng is not an assassin. He and his master have known each other a long time ago and have always been in contact."
Hongli narrowed his eyes slightly and said coldly: "What do you mean by correspondence?"
At this time, Mao Gui had nothing to hide, so he told everything that happened when he was banned in Yongshou Palace, including Wei Jingxuan drugging Li Jifeng and actively seducing him, as well as the crow siege.
, Xiangju was resentful and wanted to reveal their affair, so Wei Jingxuan ordered herself to kill her and pretend that her death was accidental.
"After the ban was lifted, because Li Jifeng was no longer responsible for guarding the Yongshou Palace, the number of their visits was much less. In addition, the master was also worried that Li Jifeng would be discovered if he sneaked into the palace privately. He had given repeated orders not to allow him to enter, but Li Jifeng was extremely fascinated by the master.
, I secretly sneaked into the palace several times despite my master's objections, and once I bumped into Brother Eleven."
Hongli's face was already frighteningly livid, and his eyes were about to spit out fire. He gritted his teeth and said, "So this time, Li Jifeng sneaked into the Yongshou Palace to have a private meeting with the imperial concubine?"
Mao Gui shook his head and said: "No, I heard from my master afterwards that Li Jifeng learned from Dr. Wang that his master had a strange disease and just sneaked into the palace. But in fact, his master did not suffer from any disease. What exactly happened?
Minion... I can't explain clearly." He thought over and over again, but finally did not dare to tell Wei Jingxuan's suspicions about the queen, so as not to offend Hongli again!
Hongli didn't think too much about Doctor Wang, and only said with a sullen face: "Afterwards, the queen searched the palace. He was afraid that if he was found, he would not be able to escape the crime of adultery, so he pretended to be an assassin and assassinated the queen?"
"Yes, Guard Li protects his master very much and is willing to do anything for his master." Mao Gui glanced at Xiao Wu secretly and whispered: "Lan Yi... was the one who deliberately approached him on his master's orders."
Xiao Wu's expression changed. He was afraid that if Mao Gui continued to talk, Lan Yi would also tell him about the question about Brother Twelve's fate. He hurriedly scolded: "Lan Yi, this bitch, is dead.
Why are you mentioning her name all the time? I'm not afraid of offending the emperor's ears. Tell me, my concubine has done something ulterior."
Mao Gui shrank when he scolded him, but Xiao Wu's behavior aroused Hongli's suspicion. When Lan Yi entered the palace before, Xiao Wu clearly had feelings for her and kept pleading for her, but in the blink of an eye, he
He was so cruel that he killed her with his own hands.
He already felt it was a bit unreasonable at the time, but out of his trust in Xiao Wu, he didn't think too much about it. However, now that Mao Gui had just mentioned Lan Yi, Xiao Wu couldn't wait to scold him to shut up, which was really suspicious.
"Xiao Wu, are you hiding something from me?" Hongli's words made Xiao Wu's face turn pale, and he quickly said: "How dare I hide anything from the emperor? I just feel that Lan Yi is unruly and unruly. Such a person is really
You are not qualified to be in the Emperor’s ears.”
"Really?" Hongli glanced at him and said to Mao Gui: "Go on, what did Li Jifeng ask from Lan Yi?"
Xiaowu was extremely anxious, but in front of Hongli he could not do anything. He could only pray in his heart that Mao Gui would never tell anything about the twelfth elder brother, but...it backfired.
"When I returned to the emperor, my master asked Li Jifeng to ask Lan Yi about the twelfth elder brother. At first, he didn't ask anything useful. Later, I don't know what method he used, but he actually asked him seriously, saying that as early as the twelfth brother
When the elder brother was born, Qin Tianjian had already concluded that the twelfth elder brother had a flaw in his destiny and was not a sign of longevity. He also said that the emperor favored the Buddhist and Taoist families and sent people to massacre Ziyun Temple, all for the sake of the twelfth elder brother.
elder brother."
Before Hongli could speak, Xiao Wu knelt down in a hurry, "This slave deserves to die, please punish me!"
Hongli's cheek kept twitching. For a long time, he said word by word: "You are so brave!"
Xiao Wu kowtowed hard and said in shock: "The slave didn't leak the information about the 12th elder brother on purpose, but... it was Lan Yi who deliberately got the slave drunk. While the slave was drunk, he asked about the 12th elder brother. The slave didn't even know that
I didn't know about this until Lan Yi mentioned it..."
"So you killed Lan Yi and thought you could keep this secret?!" Facing Hongli's questioning, Xiao Wu didn't know what to say. He just kowtowed and said he deserved to die over and over again.
