After eating and drinking, the prince patted his belly, looked at Wen Xi and said, "Don't worry, I won't argue with you since I said I won't argue with you. I always keep my word!"
The gentle man's mouth twitched with a smile, he really didn't know what to say to him!
"My servants say hello to the prince, and say hello to the noble concubine!" At some point, Liang Jiugong hurried over with a team of imperial guards.
Just as Wen Xi was about to ask what happened, Prince Yinreng asked first, "Liang Shuda, is it Emperor Ama who wants to summon Gu to come over?"
Liang Jiugong smiled and said: "Back to Your Highness the Prince, the Emperor wants to summon the Prince's archery master Longkodo."
Wen Xi was stunned and glanced at the tall guard who followed the prince closely and said little. He was Long Ke. After careful inspection, the nose and eyes were indeed somewhat similar to Concubine Tong. Although Long Ke was tall,
But he does not look like a tall and thick man, his eyebrows are somewhat heroic, his face is handsome, his complexion is slightly healthy and dark, and his demeanor is also very extraordinary. I think only his eldest brother Linge can compare with him.
When Kangxi summoned him, Longkodo did not dare to neglect, and asked kindly: "I wonder if the emperor is summoning slaves for important matters?" After taking a look at the pair of well-armed imperial guards brought by Liang Jiugong, he felt that something was unusual. Normally,
Do you need to bring so many people to summon the guards? It doesn't feel like summoning, but like arresting. Longkodo couldn't help but feel nervous.
Liang Jiugong was completely rude to Longkodo and sneered: "Don't you know what's important?"
Longkodo became more and more puzzled, so he could only politely raise his hands and said: "Please give me some advice, father-in-law."
Liang Jiugong glanced at Longkodo's empty waist and said, "Our family still remembers that a few days ago you were still carrying around the mutton-fat white jade pendant that Concubine Tong gave you last year. Where is it now?"
Longkodo really couldn't think of what to do if he lost the jade pendant. He looked puzzled and could only tell the truth: "It was indeed lost a few days ago. Could it be that my father-in-law picked it up? Thank you, father-in-law, for telling me!"
"Don't play tricks on our family!" Liang Jiugong seemed not to want to say anything more to him, and directly waved his hand: "Take it down!" He called the guards behind him to come up and surround Longkodo without saying a word.
"Eunuch, what are you doing?!" Long Ke was so shocked that his arms were grabbed, but he didn't dare to resist. Liang Jiugong came with the emperor's will!
Prince Yinreng couldn't help but frown. After all, Long Keduo was his archery master. He asked displeasedly: "Liang Shuda, why do you want to capture the people around you?"
Liang Jiugong was still respectful when facing the prince. He smiled and said: "This is the imperial edict, so I have no choice but to offend Lord Longkodo. Take him away——"
When the prince saw Liang Jiugong escorting Longkodo away, he could only stamp his feet fiercely, "What on earth did Longkodo do that prompted Emperor Ama to send people to arrest him? No one in the Tongjia family is worry-free.
of!"
Wen Xi looked at the little prince. Concubine Tong seemed to be trying to please the prince. She even sent her own brother to be the prince's archery master. Yinreng still didn't miss Concubine Tong at all, but she was fooled by him.
Ma was bribed. If Concubine Tong knew about it, would she be so angry that she would vomit blood?
But Wen Xi couldn't care less about this now. If the jade pendant belonged to Long Keduo, then things would be very serious! Wen Xi had no choice but to say goodbye to the prince in a hurry and go to the imperial tent to see what happened.
As soon as he approached the imperial tent, he heard Kangxi's roar: "Beat! Drag him out and beat him! Beat me hard!"
By then, the guards were pressing Longkodo out of the imperial tent. His wrists were already firmly trapped. The two eunuchs took off their outer trousers, revealing white silk trousers. The guards held Longkodo down.
On the bench, he was ready for execution.
Liang Jiugong came out at this time and ordered: "His Majesty ordered, beat him hard!"
Immediately, the executioner's guard understood, and his feet were parallel. "Hit hard" means that as long as you can breathe, don't beat him to death. Generally, there are three kinds of cane punishment, and the knowledge lies in the feet of the executioner. If the feet are in a "
"Outer Bazi" is placed to mean "show mercy". Even if the 180-year-old plank is struck down, it will only damage the skin and flesh, not the muscles and bones. It can be cured after a few days. Generally, if there are no other additional instructions from the superiors, it will be "Outer Bazi".
". The other completely opposite is the "neibazi", which means there is no need to be merciful and you will be beaten to death. Even if you only receive twenty or thirty spanks, your internal organs will be damaged. You may be fine on the spot, but you won't be fine after being sent home.
He died within a few days.
After all, Longkodo was the brother of Concubine Tong, the nephew of Empress Dowager Xiaokangzhang, and the direct cousin of the emperor. It was probably the first time that he was "beaten hard".
When the board fell, Long Ke could hold back his screams for a few times, but he soon started to scream in pain.
When Liang Jiugong saw Wen Xi approaching, he hurriedly greeted her, saluted diligently and said, "Greetings to the noble concubine!"
Wen Xi said no courtesy, and after looking at Longkodo for a few times, his butt was beaten to a bloody pulp. Liang Jiugong smiled and said, "The emperor is really angry, and he will definitely give justice to the noble concubine."
Longkodo seemed to have heard Liang Jiugong's words and hurriedly shouted: "Honored Concubine? Imperial Concubine! My servant did not plot to kill you! Ahhhhh-" Then there was a series of painful cries, and Longkodo tightened the nails of his hands on the wood of the bench.
Here, "I don't dare! I don't dare to murder the imperial concubine!"
Wen Xi couldn't bear hearing this. Although she and Concubine Tong were in a hostile position, she couldn't let her brother turn a blind eye because she had been wronged, so she quickly walked into the imperial tent.
When Kangxi saw Wen Xi walking in, his anger subsided a little, and he threw the mutton-fat white jade pendant "Become a Marquis immediately" on the table, "The evidence is so ironclad, he actually dares to make excuses!"
Wen Xi saluted and said, "Your Majesty, the person who pushed my concubine that night was not Longkodo."
Kangxi couldn't help being surprised, "But this jade pendant belongs to Longkodo, and he has no way to quibble." But from the bottom of his heart, Kangxi did not want the person who harmed Wenxi to be a member of the Tong Jia family. After all, it was his mother's family. If it were anyone else, Kangxi would
He could have been beaten to death directly, but Longkodo was Kangxi's cousin, so the most he could do was give him a heavy punishment.
Wen Xi explained: "Although it was dark that night, I saw that the man seemed to be slightly taller and stronger than Longkodo, and I also heard the man's voice, low and sonorous, and Longkodo
The voice was brisk and powerful. Although it is not impossible that he was disguised as Longkodo, I feel that the person is not Longkodo."
Then I heard Longkodo crying and shouting outside: "Your Majesty, this slave did not murder the noble concubine!!"
Kangxi couldn't bear it in his heart and said: "Let the outsiders stop."
"嗻!"
Less than a quarter of an hour later, when Longkodo was brought into the imperial tent again, he could no longer stand still and could only lie down on the carpet. His white underwear was already stained with blood. He was only beaten thirty times before and after.
The board was already in such a miserable state. If Wen Xi had not come to stop it, it would have been disabled.
Kangxi glanced at Longkodo on the ground. Although he felt a little pity for him, he still had some suspicion after all. After all, Concubine Tong in the palace had been targeting Wenxi, so Longkodo naturally had the motive to murder Concubine Wenxi.
And that evidence is still lying on Kangxi's desk.
Kangxi looked serious and said: "There are still doubts about this matter. Since Concubine Wen Xi said it was not you, I have no choice but to write this down for now."
Longkodo hurriedly endured the pain in his buttocks and knelt down and kowtowed: "Thank you, Your Majesty, and thank you, Your Majesty!"
Kangxi threw the jade pendant on the table in front of Longkodo's head and said: "But this jade pendant belongs to you! The imperial concubine pulled it off from the waist of the guard who pushed her into the water that night. I will give you the opportunity to make meritorious deeds. Go and find out
The murderer of the imperial concubine is here!"
Longkodo grabbed the jade pendant with both hands, kowtowed and said, "I will definitely find the real murderer!"
Wen Xi said: "That man is also a guard. He can dispatch the guards patrolling Saihan Lake to leave. He is a little taller and stronger than you, and his voice is sonorous and deep. Go and investigate." If he is smart enough, these clues will be enough.
He narrowed down his search considerably.
Longkodo kowtowed to Wen Xi again, "Thank you, Imperial Concubine!" Longkodo is more than eight feet tall, and he is considered top-notch among the guards. There must not be many people who are taller than him. Just check the day.
Who are the guards patrolling Saihan Lake? If you find someone who is taller than Longkodo, combined with his voice and high status, you can at least find the suspect.
