The change in front of me happened suddenly.
As a result, neither Zhao Qi nor Ren Chang could react.
They both thought that Li Chengqian came to them to ask about Zheng Kuan.
But who would have thought that they were kidnapped without even seeing Li Chengqian's face.
When they saw Li Chengqian in the court, Zhao Qi and Ren Chang still looked puzzled.
"Your Highness, what do you mean?"
Zhao Qi looked at Li Chengqian with confusion on his face.
"Yes, Your Highness."
Ren Chang also spoke: "We didn't do anything, right?"
"Nothing done?"
"What else do you want to do?"
Li Chengqian, who was holding the file in his hand, didn't even look at the two of them.
"I only have one question for you today."
"What happened to my cell?"
"Wu Dazhao, who killed my witnesses?"
After hearing this, Zhao Qi and Ren Chang also reacted suddenly.
Li Chengqian came to them to settle accounts with them...
Zhao Qizhi said: "Your Highness, this... we don't know this either."
"have no idea?"
Li Chengqian raised his eyes and said without raising his head: "Are you sure?"
"We really don't know."
Ren Chang also spoke: "Your Highness, if not, could you ask Mr. Zheng?"
He clearly wanted to pass the blame to Zheng Kuan.
On the other hand, if you don't investigate this matter, we will give you some evidence about Zheng Kuan.
But is Li Chengqian the kind of person who loses everything because of small things?
He already had evidence of Zheng Kuan's crime.
It's just that those things are not enough to kill him directly.
Does he need to wait for these two people to come forward and provide him with some bullshit evidence?
If they really do, do they still need to talk about it?
Therefore, after hearing what Ren Chang said, Li Chengqian just smiled slightly.
He waved his hand and said: "Pull it down..."
Before Zhao Qi and Ren Chang could react, Wu Yougou came up with two sergeants wearing Liangzhou Army armor and dragged them down.
After arriving outside, Zhao Qi and Ren Chang still didn't understand what was going on.
All he wanted to do was shout: "Your Highness is wronged."
"Okay, you two just stop screaming."
Wu Yougou stepped forward. He sneered and said, "Return to the county magistrate. In my opinion, they are just two fools."
"His Highness has come to see you. Don't you know what he wants to hear?"
Wu Yougou shook his head and said with a smile: "You are still talking here with His Highness. I think you are just seeking death."
"Who are you?"
"How dare you talk to me like that?"
Zhao Qi still maintained his official airs.
He said: "Believe it or not, if I leave this door, your whole family will die?"
"Let my whole family die?"
Wu Yougou smiled even happier.
He stepped forward and slapped Zhao Qi on the face.
"My name is Wu Yougou, and my family died in the Tyuhun invasion."
Wu Yougou grabbed Zhao Qi's collar and said, "If you, mother-in-law, are capable, go to the underworld and kill him. I won't stop you."
After saying this, Wu Yougou waved his hand suddenly and said: "Your Highness has an order. If these two people refuse to confess, they will be punished with thirty military sticks."
After finishing speaking, Wu Yougou walked directly back to the government office lobby regardless of their expressions.
Outside, the only sounds left were the screams of Zhao Qi and Ren Chang.
These two people are both literati.
Thirty soldiers were beaten with batons, and even people were really blinded, and they started to speak loudly.
Ren Chang could see the direction of the wind clearly at this time, so he simply shut up and didn't speak.
But that was not the case with Zhao Qi.
This guy is used to being arrogant.
At this moment, where are you still clamoring?
"I am an official of the imperial court, how dare you do something private to me?"
"You are breaking the law. I must go to Beijing to inform His Majesty about this!"
Hearing this, the sergeants wearing Liangzhou Army armor all laughed.
Go to Beijing and tell His Majesty?
Was this guy beaten stupid?
Did he forget that the person who ordered him to be beaten was His Majesty's favorite son?
Moreover, has he forgotten his identity?
How can a corrupt official still have the nerve to yell at me here?
Not long after, Li Chengqian asked someone to bring them back to the lobby.
At this time, the two of them had completely lost their initial majesty and arrogance, and they were both lying on the ground.
After all, their backs were broken and they couldn't stand up.
Only then did Li Chengqian finally put down the file in his hand.
He looked at the two of them indifferently and continued to ask: "What happened to my cell? How did Wu Dazhao and my witnesses die?"
When Zhao Qi and Ren Chang heard this, they both closed their mouths.
Obviously, they still want to hold on for a while.
But Li Chengqian didn't have the patience to ask a second question.
He looked directly at Wu Yougou on the side and said, "Old Wu, how do you do things?"
"I didn't notice that these two gentlemen were not entertained, okay?"
Hearing this, Wu Yougou quickly knelt down on one knee.
He said: "I'm sorry, Your Highness, it was my subordinate's dereliction of duty."
"Now that I know you have failed in your duty."
"Why don't you quickly drag the two masters down and entertain them again?"
As he spoke, Li Chengqian lowered his head and looked at Zhao Qi and Ren Chang, saying: "I have plenty of time to play with you today, and there are doctors in the back hall to ensure that you can survive..."
After saying this, Li Chengqian continued to pick up the file and read it again.
From the looks of it, it seemed like he had no intention of paying attention to them at all.
At this time, Zhao Qi and Ren Changna were complaining.
Thirty army sticks are no joke, not even a thick-skinned warrior can bear it, let alone the two of them, men of letters.
The thirty army sticks from before almost killed half of their lives.
If they were receiving thirty sticks, they would have to be beaten to death.
Zhao Qi might still be able to hold on, but Ren Chang couldn't.
He cried directly towards Li Chengqian and said: "Your Highness, Your Highness, please stop fighting. I will attack, I will attack."
"Want to confess now?"
"Isn't it a little late?"
Li Chengqian looked at Ren Chang with a smile and said, "Besides, I don't really want to hear it now. I'd rather see you get beaten."
After saying this, he gestured to Wu Yougou beside him.
Later, Wu Yougou actually asked people to drag these two guys away.
Not long after, the screams of two people could be heard outside again.
But this time, Wu Yougou didn't ask them to hit them with thirty sticks, but gave them ten symbolic sticks.
After all, he also knew that with the system of these two people, if they were to be beaten for thirty more times, no one would be able to speak.
And after the two were dragged in again.
Both of them relaxed.
Zhao Qi was the first to pop out.
He said straightly: "We paid for the murder of His Highness in the prison, and we also sent people to kill Wu Dazhao..."
Ren Chang trembled and said: "Your Highness, what do you want to know? As long as you ask, we will tell you everything we know..."
Li Chengqian's operation.
It was really unbearable for them.
No threats, no inducements, and no intimidation.
There was just one question going back and forth, and after the question was asked, the fight started without saying anything.
Who has ever seen such a thing...
