As Emperor Wei said these words in an indifferent tone, Xu Rong, the minister of Dali Temple, and Chu Shuli, the minister of Daliang Mansion, bowed to the former and walked out of the torture chamber without hesitation.
Originally, Zhao Hongrun stood there without any intention of moving. After all, he was quite curious about this matter. However, unexpectedly, the eunuch Tong Xian made a "please leave" gesture to him.
"Should I leave too?" Zhao Hongrun pointed at himself.
The great eunuch Tong Xian smiled bitterly, but Emperor Wei seemed not to hear and said nothing.
The meaning is already obvious.
So Zhao Hongrun shrugged and left the execution room with Wen Qi, Wei Jiao and other sect guards.
Tong Xian sent Zhao Hongrun all the way outside the execution room, and ordered the imperial guards to block the ground tightly outside the execution room, and then returned to the execution room.
At this time, the only people left in the execution room were the Emperor of Wei, the eunuch Tong Xian, the right commander of the Gongwei Division Tong Xin, and Yu Yan, the former official of the Ministry of Punishment who had stolen stolen goods and punished him as a member of the evil party.
At this time, Emperor Wei had a gloomy and terrifying face, completely different from his usual gentle and kind appearance. He stared at Yu Yan for a long time, and said coldly: "Who...are you?"
Yu Yan's face was still full of mockery and sneer. After glancing at Emperor Wei twice, he smiled slyly and said, "'General' asked me to send my greetings to you...His Royal Highness King Jing."
After hearing this, Emperor Wei's expression suddenly changed. He involuntarily took two steps back and murmured as if to himself: "Impossible...impossible..."
Immediately, he stared at Yu Yan angrily, gritted his teeth and cursed: "You are pretending to be a god, who are you?!"
"It's a dead soul that seeks debts and lives, His Highness King Jing." Yu Yan deliberately made a weird and weird laugh.
Seeing this, Emperor Wei's face became even more furious. From the corner of his eye, he saw Tong Xin, the commander on the right side of the Gongwei Division, holding a sword in his hand. He then stretched out his hand to hold the hilt of the sword. He saw the sharp sword pulled out, pointing at Yu Yan, and cursed angrily.
Said: "'He' is already dead, as a traitor who plotted rebellion..."
"Planning to rebel?" Yu Yan laughed when he heard this, and said with a mocking look on his face: "You can really speak clearly, Your Highness King Jing... Without a 'general', how can you sit in the East Palace?... Poor eldest prince.
, such a magnanimous and benevolent master, but he died under all your schemes and tricks... Killing his father to seize the king, framing his eldest brother, betraying his trust, crossing rivers and destroying bridges. For your current position, His Highness King Jing can do anything.
…”
"Shut up!" Emperor Wei shouted violently, his face was livid, and the sharp sword in his hand was pressed against Yu Yan's chest.
However, Yu Yan was not afraid and still said with a sneer: "Are you afraid? Hahaha... you will be afraid too?"
Wei Tianzi's chest was rising and falling. After taking a deep breath, he finally calmed down and asked in a deep voice: "Who is the person behind you? It can't be 'him', who is it? Wait for the person pretending to be 'him'
In name, what do you want to do?"
"Fake?" Yu Yan chuckled and whispered: "Do you think you killed everyone at that time? Haha? Hahahahaha, there are countless righteous people who know your ugly things. One day, I will wait for you
Tell the world about all the ugliness you committed back then, so that everyone in the world will know that you, Zhao Si, are an insidious, vicious, despicable and shameless person who will do whatever it takes to achieve your goals..."
But at this moment, Emperor Wei saw a strong murderous intent in his eyes, and stabbed Yu Yan's chest with his sword.
"You deserve to die!" Emperor Wei said word for word.
At this moment, with his eyes staring and veins popping out in his hands, he looked nothing like the tolerant king he usually was.
"..." The great eunuch Tong Xian lowered his head silently.
Suddenly, he noticed that his nephew, Tong Xin, the right commander of the Arch Guard Division, was looking at this scene with wide eyes and horror. He frowned and kicked the latter in the calf.
Tong Xin was startled, and subconsciously looked at his cousin, only to see the elder staring at him. He seemed to realize something, trembled all over, and quickly lowered his head, not daring to look at the man in front of him again.
He can be called the furious Emperor Wei.
"Ahem..." Being stabbed in the chest by Emperor Wei's sword, Yu Yan coughed twice and a lot of blood flowed from his mouth. He looked at Emperor Wei with teasing and mocking eyes and said with difficulty: "I'm here
...Yellow Spring...waiting for you..."
Having said this, he took a deep breath, raised his head, stretched his neck, and shouted loudly: "loyalty--cheng--!"
After shouting this sentence, Yu Yan seemed to have exhausted his last strength, his head dropped, and he suddenly died.
"..."
Upon hearing this cry, Emperor Wei seemed to be even more touched. He loosened his grip and subconsciously took two steps back, with an incredible look on his face: "Impossible...impossible..."
After a long while, Emperor Wei finally came back to his senses, and slowly took two steps back, looking at the lifeless Yu Yan in front of him, his expression gloomy and terrifying.
Seeing this, the great eunuch Tong Xian pushed his cousin beside him and quietly nuzzled towards the sharp sword that fell to the ground.
It is undeniable that Tong Xin is also a clever person. After being pointed out by his uncle, he walked over and picked up the sharp sword. Then he knelt down in front of Emperor Wei with a thud and shouted: "I was reckless in my humble position and killed by the wrong hand."
I hope your majesty will forgive me for killing this evil gang!"
Emperor Wei raised his head and glanced at the eunuch Tong Xian, but saw that the latter had his head lowered, so the expression on his face could not be seen clearly.
Looking deeply at Tong Xin kneeling in front of him, Emperor Wei asked quietly: "Then why did you kill him?"
"Because..." Tong Xin licked his lips, endured the fear and horror in his heart, and said bravely: "He insulted His Majesty and deserves death!"
"Oh." Emperor Wei responded lightly and said calmly: "I won't do this next time."
"Yes...yes..." Tong Xin knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly.
Looking at Tong Xin who was kneeling in front of him again, the murderous intent in Emperor Wei's eyes gradually dissipated, and he walked towards the outside of the torture chamber and said lightly: "Tong Xian, return to the palace."
"Yes!" The great eunuch Tong Xin bowed, and then saw his nephew still kneeling on the ground, so he stepped forward and kicked him to signal him to get up.
Tong Xin got up from the ground with a grunt, glanced at the door of the torture chamber where Emperor Wei was no longer around, and asked in a low voice: "Uncle, I just walked around the gate of hell, right?"
Tong Xian chuckled lightly, patted his nephew on the shoulder, and whispered: "...At least, His Majesty has remembered you. Jane is in the heart of the emperor, which is what many people dream of."
With that said, he raised his feet and was about to leave, but before leaving, he still said something uneasy: "Remember what you just said, you are the one who killed the person. If you bite him to death, you must say this to anyone."
, Never reveal even a single word, do you understand?"
"Yes, yes, uncle, I understand." Tong Xin said repeatedly.
Seeing this, Tong Xian nodded with satisfaction and walked out of the execution room.
At this time, Tong Xin dared to raise his hand and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, feeling quite frightened in his heart.
He knew very well that if Tong Xian hadn't been his cousin who reminded him just now, he might not have been able to walk out of this torture chamber alive.
But when he thought about it again, he became happy and even excited. After all, as his cousin Tong Xian said, the shock was worth it. Emperor Wei had remembered his name, which was something many Chinese people dreamed of.
At the same time, at the end of the corridor outside the execution room, Zhao Hongrun, Dali Temple Minister Xu Rong, Daliang Mansion Minister Chu Shuli, Dali Temple Shaoqian Yang Yu and many other officials were looking down at the Emperor Wei and the eunuch Tong Xian.
Walk past.
Without saying a word, Emperor Wei left Dali Temple.
"..."
Zhao Hongrun, Xu Rong, Chu Shuli, Yang Yu and others looked at each other in confusion.
Later, the group of guards in the prison corridor also left. At this time, everyone hurriedly returned to the execution room, only to find that Yu Yan, the murderer, had already died of anger.
At this moment, Tong Xin, the right commander of the Archguard Division who was still in the execution room, quickly asked Zhao Hongrun and several adults to plead guilty, saying repeatedly that he had killed Yu Yan.
Xu Rong and Chu Shuli looked at each other, but out of some scruples, they did not ask in detail.
They just felt a little helpless: Yu Yan, the vicious gang member who had finally been caught, died like this.
There is no interrogation yet!
"Today...let's call it a day." Xu Rong said somewhat tiredly.
It seems that the officials in the execution room were all stunned. After hearing this, they all pretended that nothing had happened and said goodbye to each other.
Zhao Hongrun, on the other hand, walked up to Yu Yan's body and looked thoughtfully at the area on the chest of his official uniform that was gradually stained red with blood.
The right commander of the Gongwei Division ordered Tong Xin to kill Yu Yan. Zhao Hongrun would not believe this ridiculous excuse.
Does Tong Xin have the courage?
You know, Yu Yan is the only clue to the current case. Does Tong Xin have the courage to kill this person? Or in front of Emperor Wei?
"Let me take a look at the wound." Zhao Hongrun said calmly.
After hearing this, Zongwei Chief Wei Jiao stepped forward and lifted up Yu Yan's official uniform and lining, exposing the wound.
All that was seen was that the wound was bloody and bloody, which proved that it was not just a simple stabbing. The person who did it also stirred the blade, which was the most deadly thing.
"really……"
Zhao Hongrun knew in his heart: Yu Yan could be saved by simply stabbing him with the sword. After all, the injured part of Yu Yan was not fatal. However, if he stirred the blade and expanded the injury, he could not be saved.
"His Royal Highness Prince Su, what are you..." Tong Xin, the right commander of the Arch Guard Division, walked over and looked at Zhao Hongrun staring at Yu Yan's wound with a strange expression.
Zhao Hongrun glanced at Tong Xin and said calmly: "I just want to take a look, don't worry about it. Commander Tong doesn't need to worry too much."
Tong Xin smiled coquettishly, stepped aside and said nothing, but his face always had an expression of worry about gains and losses.
"Go back to the palace."
Shaking his head, Zhao Hongrun stepped out of the execution room.
On the way, he was still thinking about this matter.
The situation has become very clear. It was his father, Emperor Wei, who wanted Yu Yan to die. Perhaps, it was his father who took the initiative himself.
Just, why?
As he was thinking about it, Zhao Hongrun thought again of the cry of "loyalty" he heard outside the execution room just now.
If Zhao Hongrun guessed correctly, it might be a slogan in the army.
"Then Yu Yan... came from the military?"
"In the Wei Dynasty, do we have an army that uses the word "loyalty" as its slogan?" Zhao Hongrun asked the Zongwei coldly.
All the sect guards looked at each other and shook their heads in confusion. No one could answer.
