The winter night is cool and the stars are dotted. On the dark Puyang River, from time to time, there are dull sounds of water filling, rough and rapid breathing, and heart-rending screams. It is Wang Xian's men who are feeding the two prisoners.
torture.
Wang Xian is very talented in executions, and is especially good at non-invasive questioning. However, he did not want to stop his men from using the most brutal method to torture the prisoners today, because during this period, he had too many negative emotions in his heart.
If he lets it out, he will really go crazy.
On the independent bow, Wang Xian looked at the dark night sky, sighed deeply, and wanted to escape, leaving Pujiang, a living hell that can drive people crazy.
"Sir, the man named Zheng is soft." Shuai Hui came over and reported in a low voice.
Wang Xian nodded and stood for a moment longer before turning around and entering the cabin. He saw Zheng Hui tied up into a rice dumpling. His belly was as round as a ball. His mouth and nose were filled with tears and sewage. He was panting heavily.
Rough.
Wang Xian asked softly: "What's your name?"
"Zheng Song." The man whispered.
"Do you still want to drink some more water?" Wang Xian's voice was gentle but cold.
"..." The man thought about it and changed his words: "Zheng Hui."
"That's right." Wang Xian nodded approvingly and asked, "How did Wu Shaoyuan die?"
Hearing this name, Zheng Hui's expression changed and he whispered: "I don't know, I went to Fujian to do business at that time."
"So, he is indeed dead?" Wang Xian asked coldly.
"Yes..." Zheng Hui secretly regretted it. It turned out that he was deceived, so he shut his mouth tightly.
"Why did he die? You'd better not tell the truth in a hurry." Wang Xian said in a low and sinister voice: "I'm in a bad mood today, I hope you can let me vent." He sighed quietly and said: "Look
Your stomach is full of water now. What will happen if you press it?" Before he finished speaking, Erhei kicked Zheng Hui in the stomach. His whole body felt like it was exploding. He kicked Zheng Hui repeatedly.
Hinoki has water flowing from all seven holes, vomiting and convulsions...
"Okay, okay." Wang Xian stopped Erhei and said softly: "I believe he will obey, right? Zi will?"
Zheng Hui was stunned when he heard this. Zi would be his name. Obviously, the other party had been targeting him for a long time. But he could no longer care about the surprise because he really couldn't stand the torture. In addition to pouring water on him, the gang also used pig bristles on him.
Stabbing the roots of his descendants was truly an unprecedented torture. Under that kind of cruel pain, life, honor and disgrace, family, and loyalty were all shattered. There was only one thought left, which was the end.
This kind of pain. He thought about biting his tongue and committing suicide, but he didn't know whether he had no strength or courage. He really couldn't die, so he had no choice but to confess...
"I said, I said... Wu Shaoyuan and Zheng Mai's eldest son and I used to go to school together. After Wu Shaoyuan got married, I was naturally very happy because the rules at home were too strict and everyone kept a straight face and didn't even speak.
Since he came, we have been hanging out together all day long, eating, drinking and having fun. I regard him as my best brother. Who knew he turned out to be a beast in clothes..." Zheng Hui whispered. "He turned out to be a beast.
He tried to rape my wife while I was drunk, but I heard a noise, discovered it in time, and killed him on impulse."
"I don't even know how to make up lies." Wang Xian put on his hair and was as smart as a monkey, and he exposed it to the point: "Wu Shaoyuan didn't even touch his own wife, but he touched your wife? His head was caught in the door?"
"Sir, if this beast doesn't tell the truth, it seems he will continue to be tortured," Erhei said in a dull voice.
"..." Zheng Hui's face was tangled for a while, and finally he cried: "I can't say, it's useless even if you kill him."
"I can kill you, but not with a knife, but with a pig's bristles." Shuai Hui raised the black, oily, stiff, bloody pig's bristles eerily, and asked hey, "I wonder how many hundred times you can sustain it?"
"
"No, no - you use a knife." Zheng Hui was so frightened that he became incontinent. In fact, it was not incontinence because he had completely lost feeling in his lower body.
"Just use this." Shuai Hui stabbed him again. Zheng Hui screamed in pain and fainted.
Wang Xian's lower body tightened and his little brother shrank into a ball. He couldn't help but glance at Shuai Hui and thought to himself that this kid is really perverted to think of such torture.
Shuai Hui smiled awkwardly and threw the bristles to the ground.
"How's that going?" Wang Xian asked after coughing.
"That one is like a piece of wood. No matter how hard you try, he doesn't make a sound." Erhei sighed and said, "How could there be such a person?"
"He is a die-hard Mingjiao believer, and torture is useless." When he was in Fuyang, Wang Xian interrogated such fanatical Mingjiao believers. Although those people did not know how to chant "blazing holy fire, burn my remaining body," but for their
Faith completely ignores pain and disregards life and death...
As for Zheng Hui, although he insisted on not speaking, he was different from the brainwashed Jue Ran. His persistence was actually a fear of the consequences, which was not impeccable - because fear was the most real answer.
When Zheng Hui woke up again, he saw Wang Xian's handsome face, but his whole body was filled with horror.
"I've said everything that needs to be said, what else is there to be afraid of?" There was no third person in the cabin. Wang Xian sat cross-legged next to Zheng Hui, holding a white handkerchief in his hand to wipe away the stains and stains on his mouth and nose.
Bloodstains. Looking at Zheng Hui's shocked face, Wang Xian smiled and said: "If you don't believe it, let me repeat what you just said... Your father's name is Zheng Qia. He was a Jinshi during the Hongwu period and went to the Imperial Academy to await the imperial edict. In the fourth year of Jianwen, Nanjing City
Broken, the official statement is that your father died in the flames in the palace. But in fact, your father did not die. He and a group of loyal civil and military officials followed Jianwen Jun and ran away, but they did not just flee. They have been actively preparing for a comeback.
Among them, your father is running a business in Fujian, and for safety reasons, Jianwenjun was left in Pujiang under the protection of the Zheng family." He paused and said, "By the way, your name is not Zheng Hui, but Zheng Qiao.
Right?"
Zheng Hui was about to faint again. Oh my God, did I really have to say everything while I was in a coma? Why didn't I bite off my tongue in the first place? This was really a disaster, not only for him, but also for the Zheng family
, and is everything going to end for Your Majesty? All kinds of fear came to his heart, completely crushing his defenses...
"You also told me that Wu Shaoyuan's father is a royal guard. He always wants to make a great contribution to restore his identity to the court and give himself a promotion. He and Zheng Mai's eldest son are business partners. By chance
By chance, Wu Shaoyuan heard Zheng Mai's last words from him. He said that the K family was going to be destroyed, and so on, so he concluded that the Zheng family was hiding some fatal secret. But your family was strictly guarded, and only a few core people knew about it.
.There is no way for an outsider to know about him, so this kid made up his mind to marry into your Zheng family. Others thought he married into your sister's wife, but in fact, he did it for you. You two have become a family, and you talk about everything.
After the conversation, under the influence of alcohol, he asked you how Zheng Mai died? You accidentally let it slip. After you woke up, you were so frightened that you quickly told your elders, and it turned out that they planned Wu Shaoyuan's disappearance.
, and arranged for you to go to Fujian to find your father to avoid the limelight."
Zheng Hui nodded numbly. Although Wang Xian's inference was not correct, it was not far off. Even if there were some deviations, he only thought that he did not explain clearly and the other party just made up his mind.
"But in Fujian, you found that your father was involved with the Mingjiao people, and they were going to join forces to cause trouble." Wang Xian continued: "You came back this time to bring a message to your grandfather and uncles. It's a pity that your grandfather didn't
You are willing to get involved with the cult, because it will tarnish the reputation of the Zheng family and make Mr. Jianwen lose his justice. But some of your uncles are willing. They are fed up with being afraid. They don't want to wait for the day when the court discovers them. They want to take the initiative.
, give it a try whether it’s life or death.
"..." If Zheng Hui hadn't tied his hands and feet and could have pulled out his tongue, how could my mouth be so big?
"But the Mingjiao people have no patience to wait, because they know that the imperial court has noticed Pujiang, so they mobilized the believers and drove the refugees to enter this time. The Mingjiao people have used the cover of the refugees to gather in Pujiang County, and now everything is
All we have is the east wind." Wang Xian took a sip of rice wine and whispered: "The reason why people from Mingjiao have repeatedly made appointments with you is to urge you to make Lord Jianwen appear in Pujiang as agreed."
"..." Zheng Hui was completely frozen, but from his horrified expression, Wang Xian had gotten everything he wanted.
"Actually, the actions of the imperial court cannot be hidden from you, because there are too many ministers who are nostalgic for the Lord and are informing you. Lord Jianwen actually had time to escape. Why did he still not leave Pujiang when the situation was so critical?" Wang
Xian said word by word: "It's because of you people who are trying to cooperate with Mingjiao that you are preventing him from leaving. Creating a critical situation to force the old man to make a decision is really not possible. You can only put the old man under house arrest first, and then surrender Mr. Jianwen."
Is it right to come out?”
"..." Zheng Hui could no longer listen. His body was shaking to the point of convulsions. He was frightened by the horrific scene he had imagined.
"Now it all depends on you whether you can save the Zheng family and the young ones, and whether you can save yourself." Wang Xian said seductively like a devil.
When a person experiences the horror of destruction and learns that there is a life-saving straw, he will desperately grab it. When he came to his senses, Zheng Hui widened his eyes and said, "Is there really a way to survive?"
"Of course, you don't know what finding that person means to the current emperor." Wang Xian nodded and said: "Not only will he pardon you, but he will also reward you heavily. When the time comes, please use your reward.
, in exchange for the lives of your entire family. Do you think His Majesty can agree?"
"Yes..." Zheng Hui's heart resumed beating again, and he answered with a trembling voice: "What do you want me to do?"
"Help me find that person." Wang Xian's heart was pounding.
