"Master Marquis, this man has a tight mouth. He hasn't said anything from yesterday to now! General Yuchi said he would be sent to Dali Temple tomorrow!"
In a dark hut in Youwuhou Mansion, Wan Jingang's hands and feet were tied and hung on a beam, his hair disheveled, and he was in a very embarrassed state. A sergeant from Youwuhou Mansion was explaining the situation to Li Zexuan in a low voice.
There is no prison in Youwuhou Mansion, so Wan Jingang can only be temporarily detained in such a small room.
In the Tang Dynasty, there were prisons in Dali Temple and in various prefectures and counties. The Ministry of Justice, Dali Temple and Yushitai were the three major judicial organs of the Tang Dynasty. Dali Temple was the central judicial organ of the Tang Dynasty, responsible for hearing crimes committed by hundreds of central officials and cases involving imprisonment or above in the capital. Dali Temple trials generally took the form of direct face-to-face trials. Therefore, the Tang Dynasty followed the tradition of the Southern and Northern Dynasties and established the Dali Temple Prison as a place to detain criminals. place. As a central prison, Dali Temple Prison mainly detains officials who committed crimes in various departments and important criminals in the capital area. Therefore, Wan Jingang will eventually be sent to Dali Temple.
In addition to Dali Temple, there was actually a prison in the Yushitai of the Tang Dynasty. In the early Tang Dynasty, the Yushitai mainly played a supervisory function, but sometimes it also conducted judicial trials on criminal officials based on the emperor's edicts, thereby directly participating in trial activities.
On the other hand, the Ministry of Punishment, as one of the three departments, is not an independent judicial organ. It has no prisons and no wardens. However, the Ministry of Punishment is the highest functional agency that manages and supervises prison affairs across the country, whether it is Dali Temple or Jingzhao Mansion. Before the 25th of every month, report to the Ministry of Punishment the reasons and length of detention of the prisoners in charge.
Li Zexuan frowned and said, "Is there any punishment?"
Asking this kind of question shows that he watched too many costume dramas in his previous life!
Sure enough, the sergeant's expression changed, and he quickly looked around. When he saw no one else, he hurriedly said: "Master Marquis, our Youwuhou Mansion does not have the right to use torture. Every time we hand over a prisoner to Dali Temple, When they are there, they will also check whether there are any signs of torture on the prisoners. If they find that we have used lynching, they will definitely trouble General Yuchi!"
Wan Jingang, who was hanging from the beam, had a mocking smile on his lips. It was obvious that this guy was now confident!
"Hmph! Go and get a barrel! Then send someone to my house to get a syringe. If you tell Butler Wang directly, he will definitely understand!"
Li Zexuan's face turned cold and he ordered the sergeant.
The sergeant didn't know why and asked, "Master Marquis, what do you want the barrel and the needle for?"
Li Zexuan smiled coldly and said: "Since we can't torture him, I will give him acupuncture. Don't worry, the wound is smaller than an ant. The people in Dali Temple will definitely not be able to see it!"
The sergeant still didn't understand, "Master Marquis, why are you giving this guy an acupuncture?"
Li Zexuan showed a devilish smile on his face and said: "This man has blood vessels everywhere in his body, and the blood vessels carry human blood. I will pierce this needle into his blood vessel, and the blood in his body will It will flow into the bucket drop by drop along the needle. When the bucket is full, he will only have one breath left, and outsiders can't check the wound. Do you think it's very enjoyable?"
"Uh~!"
The sergeant couldn't help but shiver, then subconsciously took two steps back, keeping a safe distance from Li Zexuan, then he cupped his fists and said: "Hou... Mr. Hou, I will go find you a barrel and a syringe! "
After that, he left as if running away!
Because Yuchi Jingde ordered them yesterday, and Li Zexuan is here, no matter what he orders them, they must do it, as long as they don't demolish the Wuhou Mansion!
Wan Jingang, who was hanging on the beam, had a face full of fear at this moment. The scene Li Zexuan described was really terrifying! He stared wide-eyed and shook his head vigorously: "No, no, no! Marquis Yong'an, you are a prince personally ennobled by the Holy Emperor. It is against the law for you to use lynching! Then the Cui family will not let you go!"
"Cui family?"
Li Zexuan sneered, looked at Wan Jingang with a joking face, and said: "You are just an abandoned son of the Cui family now. Do you think the Cui family will care about your life and death? Oh, no, it should be said that the Cui family just wants you now. Death, I don’t want you to live! You must know that only the dead can keep secrets best!”
Wan Jingang didn't want to believe it and said: "No! I was recruited into the Cui family by the old lady. After he returns to Chang'an, he will definitely find a way to save me!"
"Old lady? You mean Cui Junchuo? Where is he now?"
Li Zexuan's eyes narrowed and he asked.
Wan Jingang suddenly woke up. He seemed to have stopped talking about it. He quickly shut up and didn't say another word.
Li Zexuan saw this and sneered: "Humph! It seems that you haven't recognized the reality yet. I'll give you some blood later to make you sober!"
Wan Jingang gritted his teeth and said: "Hmph! Let blood be let out! Have I, Wan Jingang, shed too much blood over the years?"
This is obviously the work of a powerful foreigner!
Li Zexuan was too lazy to talk nonsense to him. After a while, the sergeant brought a wooden bucket and placed it next to Wan Jingang. Li Zexuan ordered: "Browd his eyes with a black cloth. I'm afraid of him." After a while I couldn’t stand it anymore and scared myself to death!”
"....Yes! Lord Marquis!"
Both the sergeant and Wan Jingang shuddered, secretly thinking that Li Zexuan is really cruel!
After a while, the sergeant pulled a piece of black cloth from nowhere and covered Wan Jingang's eyes. Li Zexuan "performed the surgery himself", oh, no, it was a needle. Fortunately, he was taller and could directly hit Wan Jingang's eyes while standing on the ground. Neng inserted the needle into Wan Jingang's arm.
Facing Li Zexuan, a martial arts master, Wan Jingang did not struggle pointlessly because he knew that Li Zexuan had ten thousand ways to make him lose his ability to struggle. At this time, he only felt as if his arm had been bitten by an insect. It couldn't be said to be painful, so he sneered:
"Hmph! I thought it would hurt so much! This is just to tickle my King Kong!"
Li Zexuan didn't get angry, he said with a smile: "It's not my purpose to make you hurt. I want you to experience the loss of life unconsciously, until in the end, you don't even have the strength to open your eyes. No! And in the process, you can't do anything! You can only slowly wait for death!"
Wan Jingang's body trembled, and it could be seen that he was beginning to feel fear in his heart. When the sergeant next to him saw the light yellow rubber hose, he instantly turned it into deep red. Then he heard a "tick" sound and blood fell into the barrel!
"Go and get some copies of Datang Daily for me. I will be reading the newspapers here today and admiring how these ten thousand diamonds were bled and made into human beings!"
Li Zexuan suppressed the chill in his heart and ordered.
In fact, he himself was a little frightened when he heard such "perverted" words that were deliberately scary, but in order to make Wan Jingang tell the truth, he had no choice but to "aggrieve" himself!
"Ho~! Marquis Yong'an, kill me if you dare! How can you be a hero if you resort to such despicable means?"
When Wan Jingang thought that all the blood on his body had to be drained, and there was someone watching the process beside him, even though he had killed many people before, he couldn't help but tingle in his heart. He just wanted to die quickly!
The sergeant of Youwuhou Mansion looked at Li Zexuan as if he were a monster, and thought to himself: Is this still the good man Yong'an Marquis that everyone praises? How does he look like a demon who just came out of hell!
The sergeant was about to get a newspaper for Li Zexuan when he suddenly felt his sleeve being pulled by someone. He looked down and found that it was Li Zexuan who was pulling him. He was puzzled and was about to ask, but he saw Li Zexuan moving towards his hand like lightning. He stuffed a ball of paper inside and made a silencing gesture. The sergeant was also a smart man. He nodded quickly and retreated.
"Captain Zhou, Lord Marquis, what is written on this? Please tell me quickly!"
In a side hall of Wuhou Mansion, the sergeant who served Li Zexuan earlier was scratching his head and surrounding a middle-aged man, saying anxiously.
Looking at him like this, he is obviously illiterate. The note Li Zexuan passed to him before was really in vain!
"You! The general usually asks brothers to read more books when they have time, but Shen Sige, you just don't listen!"
The middle-aged man named Zhou pointed at the sergeant and complained.
However, he complained, and he still started to help Shen Sige read the contents on the note.
"A pot of water, a funnel, and two sergeants? Shen Sige, are you sure this is the note the Marquis gave you?"
The content of the note was very simple, and Captain Zhou read it quickly, but he was a little confused about the content of the note.
Shen Sige frowned and thought for a while, then said excitedly: "I understand! Thank you Captain Zhou!"
After that, he ran away quickly!
………………………
"Tick tock~tick tock!"
In a dark room, the sound of "tick-tick-tick" water dripping could be heard from time to time. A young man was sitting at the door, looking through the latest issues of "Datang Daily" with leisurely time. A smile appeared on his face from time to time, and it could be seen that he was in a good mood at the moment.
But the big man hanging on the beam in the room was not in a good mood at the moment. His face was pale, and his wrists and ankles had deep purple marks left as he tried to break free. His lips were dry, and he didn't yell at the moment, because he had yelled for a long time before, but to no avail. The young man remained unmoved by his yelling.
It can't be said that he was completely unmoved. When he uttered dirty words, the boy would kick him in the stomach so hard that it would hurt so much that he couldn't even breathe!
"Master Marquis, you see it's already noon. Why don't you go have your meal first and my subordinates can watch it for you?"
Near noon, Shen Sige ran over and said cautiously.
Li Zexuan put down the newspaper and replied: "No need! Go to Zuixian Tower and help me get a plate of lion heads, a plate of fried bean sprouts, and a small pot of Immortal Drunk. I will eat it here at noon! Let Shopkeeper Liu have more Prepare a few portions and serve them to the brothers on duty at Wuhou Mansion!"
Shen Sige said in fear: "Hey! Lord Marquis, you are so flattering! Brothers are on duty, where can I drink?"
Li Zexuan raised his eyebrows in surprise, secretly thinking that the military discipline here is quite strict. He waved his hand and said: "Then bring more food and treat it as a reward to the brothers!"
"Thank you, Lord Marquis!"
"Well! As for Wan Jingang, don't feed it to him at noon! According to his bleeding rate, he should be able to almost finish all the blood in his body by night! It's a waste to feed him!"
"You! Marquis Yong'an, you are going too far!"
Wan Jingang hasn't eaten a bite since he was taken into Wuhou Mansion yesterday morning, and after being tortured by Li Zexuan this morning, he feels like he's really going to be exhausted! When Li Zexuan said this, his lungs almost exploded with anger!
"Ignore him! Go!"
Li Zexuan waved his hand and said.
Shen Sige took the order and left.
At noon, the military attaches and soldiers on duty in Youwuhou Mansion got a big meal for free. They usually gritted their teeth and were reluctant to go in and eat a plate of the top-notch delicacies and dishes in Zuixian Tower, but now they were able to enjoy it The ground was opened to eat, and for a moment, the whole Wuhou Mansion was filled with the aroma of food! The hungry Wan Jingang, surrounded by the aroma of food and the intoxicating aroma of wine, simply felt worse than death, and his days were like years!
"Master Marquis, my subordinates just heard news outside that the Cui family went to the Nuantang Foundation to donate two thousand guan today! Hey! It seems they are starting to give in!"
Li Zexuan invited Shen Sige to have lunch together at the door of the "Little Black Room". During the dinner, Shen Sige smiled and told a piece of news. Wan Jingang frowned deeply when he heard this.
Li Zexuan sighed seemingly casually: "Everyone in the world thinks that the Cui family is so high up there that it will never fall. Haha! Let's wait and see! Well, not to mention that, this god is still drunk! Tsk tsk! I wouldn't change it for a god. ah!"
"Gugu~!"
He was eating wine and meat here, but Wan Jingang's stomach growled unsatisfactorily at this moment. Li Zexuan smiled at the two sergeants standing next to Wan Jingang doing "unknown" things: "Come on, come on." Come, you two come over and have some food, and just keep an eye on him alone and don't let him bite his tongue and kill himself!"
The two looked at each other and saw Shen Sige nodding towards them, so they responded: "Thank you, Lord Marquis!"
As a result, the only sounds left in the house were the sound of chewing food and the very rhythmic "tick-tock~tick-tock" sound.
The hungry Wan Jingang was even more tortured by these two sounds. His arms and legs had long lost consciousness, presumably because of too much blood! If there was a knife in his hand at this moment, his first reaction would not be to chop at Li Zexuan, but to chop at his own neck!
Afternoon.
After an unknown amount of time, the "ticking" sound suddenly stopped. Li Zexuan raised his head and said, "What's wrong? Did he drain out so quickly? You two, quickly squeeze his arms and give him a squeeze." , maybe we can squeeze out some blood! Shen Sige, go and get a pot of "wine" for me. How can such an elegant thing be done without wine? Haha!"
Wan Jingang's face turned even paler, and he roared with his already hoarse voice: "Madman! Madman! You are the devil! Please kill me!"
"Ha! Want to die? How can it be that easy? Your blood hasn't drained out yet!"
Li Zexuan laughed.
