Chapter 124: The Final Judgment
"Qianhu, Sun Zhao Baihu was beaten to death by the mob at the Silver Factory, and none of his six subordinates survived. .
The silver factory resumed production, and the riots instigated by Sun Zhao were eliminated by Yun Zhao."
Yuan Min, a member of the Qianhu family, looked out the window after listening to Fanzi's report. The green brick floor let out a low sigh.
In Lantian County, Yuan Min's strength was too weak to compete with the huge Yun family. Therefore, he carefully selected the remote place of Baiyin Factory and did a lot of things for this purpose. Thinking that Yun's family was thousands of miles away, Jin Yiwei could still do nothing.
Yuan Min discovered the secret of Lantian County and touched the big web woven by Lantian County.
He did not dare to disturb Yun Zhao who was sitting in the middle of the spider web, so he chose the end of the web to test it, but the result was not good.
The riot he expected did not come as planned.
Even when they were the most angry, those damn mobs still refused to execute the stewards sent by the Yun family, which puzzled Yuan Min.
He couldn't figure out why those reckless heroes had the momentum to respond to every call. Jin Yiwei used more subtle methods, but the effect was so bad.
His plan is very thorough. As long as he can incite riots in the silver factory, he can continue to use this method in other Yun's factories and mines, and finally achieve the purpose of delaying Yun's crazy expansion. .
Longzhong is the place where thieves and bandits are rampant and the people are in dire straits. It is the easiest place to cause trouble. Since the Yun family can easily pacify the affairs of the Silver Factory, then in other places, the Yun family’s power should be more deeply rooted. .
The first confrontation was a bloody one, which was not what Yuan Min wanted to see.
Looking at Guanzhong, there is a scene of peace and joy, but this scene has nothing to do with the Ming Dynasty to which he is loyal. This is Yuan Min's greatest pain.
"Qianhu, are we still investigating Yushan?"
Xiaoqi's words dragged Yuan Min back from his anxious thoughts.
"So what if it's found out? The country is unable to deal with it. Now, Yun's abscess has not yet festered. It can only make us feel a dull pain and we can only endure it."
< p>Thinking of the country that was riddled with holes and each had its own thoughts, Yuan Min felt a little dispirited. She just wanted to find a quiet place to kill the energy in her chest with a peaceful life and end her remaining life.The failure at the silver factory did not make him despair. What made him despair was the way the court was muddle along.
"There is news from our fanzi in Tangyu that the Yun family has a large-scale prison in Tangyu. It is said that there are no less than 400 prisoners in it.
Inside The appearance was horrible, and he also said that every once in a while, someone would be thrown into the bone pool... which was even more cruel than our black prison in Xi'an in Beizhen." After hearing this, Yuan Min took it from the shelf. The Xiuchun Dao was hung on his waist, he stretched out his slightly wrinkled Feiyu uniform, put on his official hat, and said to Xiao Qi: "Bring twentyPeople, let’s take a trip to Tangyu. "
Xiao Qi quickly said: "Qianhu is inappropriate!
Yuan Min said: "Is there anything wrong? The duty of our Jinyiwei is to be the emperor's eyes and ears, to monitor the world's lawless affairs. It's fine if we haven't found out. Since we have found out, we must go away." , let’s go, we won’t die there.
The Yun family doesn’t care about these details yet, and the purpose of our visit is not to destroy other people’s black prisons, but to see good people being wronged.
Xiao Qi said: "Qianhu...it is not our duty to investigate unjust cases." "
Yuan Min looked up to the sky and laughed miserably: "If we don't investigate the injustice, what else can we do? We must always highlight the presence of the imperial court. Our presence in Lantian County is the last face of the Ming Dynasty. "
"There in Beizhen..."
"Let's go, I'll be responsible for anything that happens. ”
So, more than 20 cavalry Jinyiwei left Xi’an. They did not avoid people, so they walked through the entire Lantian County in Jinyi and gorgeous clothes, heading straight to Tangyu with majesty and murderous intent.
Deaf Er carried two heavy barrels down the bluestone steps to the underground.
After passing through three iron gates, he handed the barrels to the underground guards.
p>The guard glanced at the two wooden barrels and said with some disgust: "Today's porridge is thicker. "
Deaf Er said: "It's better to hang your life.
The guard said angrily: "Why don't you kill them all? These scum are left to waste food." "
Deaf Er glared at the guard and said, "Where did all this nonsense come from? The county official wants them alive, but you dare to kill them?
Everyone here represents the public sentiment of a place. They have done too many evil things, and they cannot just cut off their heads with a knife and let go of the lives of those who were killed by them. We can't get through this level with the county magistrate. "
The guard nodded and said: "Mom, if you don't read the file, everyone is a good person. If you read the file, all these evil ghosts should be thrown into the bone pool!" "
Deaf Er urged: "Hurry up and feed them. They will stop howling after eating. "
The two guards reluctantly lifted the big wooden bucket, holding a wooden spoon in their hands, and shouted into the deep tunnel: "Shut up, I'm going to eat." ”
As a result, the groans, howls, curses, and begging for mercy in the tunnel suddenly disappeared, and wooden bowls protruded from the gaps in the iron fence as thick as an arm.
p>A guard took a mouthful of porridge with a spoon and took a bite of it and said, "Damn, this is porridge made by a new millet. "
Seeing the guards starting to distribute food to the prisoners, Deaf Er tightened his belt and pushed open the second iron door on the left.
There was only a light swaying inside the iron door. Deaf Er After entering, it took a while before he could barely adapt to the light in front of him.
There was a bloody body on a long bench. If the chest was not still rising and falling slightly, people would have misunderstood this person. dead.
Deaf Er checked the man's breathing, and then his eyes fell on a man hanging on a wooden frame.
This man has almost lost his human form. He is completely naked, and his skin is torn and torn. The broken skin is arranged regularly, and each whip mark is an inch apart, like a fish that has been slashed. .
Deaf Er raised his leg and kicked open a sack. The person under the sack immediately took a deep breath, as if he had been rescued from drowning.
Deaf Er pulled the end of the hemp rope hanging on the wall. After a while, a middle-aged scribe carrying a pen, ink, paper and inkstone came in and asked Deaf Er excitedly: "Second uncle, the main thing today is Who should be interrogated? Wan Sheng suggested interrogating Liu Tieta."
Deaf Er said coldly: "Why are you always so interested in rape and murder cases?"
The middle-aged scholar said. : "I always feel that my wife and daughter are constantly urging me to interrogate Liu Tieta first in order to avenge the women he raped."
Deaf Er said: "In that case, then Pour the salt water on it and let’s interrogate Liu Tieta!”
Hearing this, the middle-aged clerk quickly walked to a wooden bucket, grabbed a handful of coarse salt from the side and threw it into the bucket! , stir vigorously with a wooden stick, and wait until there is no sound of salt particles colliding with the wooden stick in the bucket. Then, lift the bucket, and carefully pour the salt water in the bucket evenly onto the wooden shelf that is tied to it, like a carving. On a fish-like man with swords and flowers.
"Ah——"
"Ah——"
"Ah——"
There was a shrill sound like an evil ghost. A life-threatening scream came from the iron gate. The guard who was distributing food to the prisoners couldn't help but shudder. A spoonful of porridge fell to the ground. Before he could react, a pair of dark hands stretched out from the fence. I brought the soil and porridge back together.
The guard couldn't help but said to another guard: "Deaf Er has started again."
Another guard said: "Deaf Er is not so cruel, Liu Chunda should have done it. , that guy has had something wrong with his head since his wife and daughter were killed."
The guard fiercely placed a spoonful of porridge in a wooden bowl and cursed at the person inside: "It's a shame. You are happy when you are alive, now it’s time to pay your debts.
How can you still eat when you are about to die?”
“Is that Liu Tieta from Mizitan? He treated all the women in the village as his mother-in-law, sleeping with whomever he wanted. At least six people were killed, and this was the number of people who had to surrender. God knows how many people died without anyone in the family.
Deaf Er said that this man’s head is of great use and should be used by the new village chief to win people’s hearts and make the people of Mizitan become more normal and not tremble when they see evil people. p>
Another guard said: "This is what we should do. We must dig out all the tragedies from Liu Tieta's mouth. Only then can our newly appointed district chief deal with the people there and let the people there The people believe that we men are the most impartial and selfless people in Lantian County.The most powerful backer. "
The two of them were talking while slowly moving into the dim alley. At this time, there was only the sound of eating porridge in the alley.
Tangyu in winter The water vapor is lingering, and countless tents are pitched in the open space of the valley. The hot spring pools are full of people, naked and not shying away from the eyes of passers-by.
Some officials even booked Tangyu. The pavilion here serves as a place for the family to escape the cold.
Of course, the hot spring pool surrounded by a green cloth curtain cannot be entered. The sound of women's frolics can be heard from time to time in the curtain, which makes this place so popular. The valley looks warm in spring.
On the left side of the entrance of Tangyu Valley, there are three secluded pools where there are no people. The water there is as clear, but the pools are more moist than other pools, like paint. There was a thick layer of grease on them.
Jin Yiwei's cavalry stopped beside these three pools.
Looking at the steaming pools, Yuan Min jumped off his horse and asked Xiaoqi. : "This is the Bone Transformation Pond?
Xiao Qi nodded and said: "There are many people coming here to take a bath in winter. Yunshi was worried about scaring tourists, so she cleaned up the place."
Qianhu, look at the grease on those stones. It must be moistened by human bones. "
Yuan Min's eyes were slightly red. He raised his head and looked at the blue sky, and whispered: "God has no eyes! This is what rebellious officials and traitors do.
Xiao Qi continued: "It stands to reason that the Yun family has been in charge of the Bone Transformation Pond for a long time. People with a certain status know about the existence of the Bone Transformation Pond."
Such an outrageous thing happened in front of everyone's eyes. I was curious as to why they turned a blind eye and ignored it.
Whether it is the Prince of Qin's Palace, the Chief Envoy, or the officials of Xi'an Palace, they are collectively indifferent to this. Qianhu, is there some hidden secret that we don't know about? "
Yuan Min said: "Let's go and meet the devil Yun. No matter what happens here, we will understand everything if we go there in person. ”
