The sun was still in the sky just now, but now it suddenly became dark for some reason.
At this time, several officials headed by Su Yunqi who were about to be beheaded had placed their heads on the guillotine and remained motionless.
They all probably had the same feeling in their hearts at this time, and they probably all had unspeakable regrets.
Seeing that the time had come, the official sitting in the middle of the chair behind the stage picked up a few beheading cards.
The official looked seriously at the people in front of the stage who were talking about it.
His face was always serious, without a trace of smile.
He is the Minister of Punishment, Cen He, and beside him are the Yushi Zuodu of the Ducha Yuan and the Minister of Dali Temple.
"The time has come!"
"cut!"
After the official said something, he threw out a few beheading cards in his hand.
Hearing this sound, the people who were watching the excitement were very excited. The swordsmen clenched their swords and slashed at the prisoners who were about to go to the West.
Knowing that they alone would not survive, these people who were about to be beheaded all closed their eyes.
Seeing that the machete was about to fall on the officials who were about to be beheaded, a loud voice shouted in this direction:
"Save someone under the knife!"
"Save someone under the knife!"
With these two shouts, the swordsmen stopped the swords that were about to fall on the heads of the prisoners.
Hearing this sound, not only the people looked towards the source of the sound, but also several officials behind the stage. Almost everyone looked towards the source of the sound.
I saw that the source of the sound was several secret guards on horseback, and the leader was Gu Yong, the commander of the Eastern Secret Guard.
As soon as they saw it, the officials stood up from their chairs in a hurry, and hurried over with uninformed faces.
Gu Yong, the commander of the Eastern Dark Guard, shouted and performed a series of movements. After the horse stopped, he jumped off the horse.
The uninformed people were already talking about it.
"What's going on?"
"Why did it stop?"
"that is."
"The knife almost fell on their heads. Wouldn't it be better if it fell faster."
"Did you suddenly change your mind?"
"I do hope to change."
"What harm have these officials done to our great Mo, let me see what Su..."
The man on the side added: "Su Yunqi."
"Yes, this is Su Yunqi. After doing such a big thing, he only cut off his head, and his family still survived. In my opinion, it is really appropriate to kill the Nine Clan."
"that is."
Several men on the side nodded one after another, thinking that the punishments given by the officials on the stage were too light.
Gu Yong, the commander of the Eastern Secret Guard who dismounted, stepped forward with the imperial edict in his hand. He looked at the officials with a more serious look on his face.
It seems that his face has always been serious.
Seeing them about to kneel down, Commander Gu hurriedly said: "The Emperor has said it, just stand and listen."
After Dao, looking at the imperial edict in his hand, Commander Gu recited: "By God's blessing, the emperor issued an edict, saying: When the traitor's residence was searched, it was found that the money seized was very scarce. Su Yunqi and others
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
If the person is too late to be executed, the case will now be handed over to Gu Yong, the commander of the Eastern Dark Guard, for further investigation. The execution will only be carried out after the whereabouts of the money are found out. Admire this. "
"I obey your orders!"
After finishing reading, Gu Yong, the commander of the Eastern Dark Guard, added: "When we searched their mansion today, we found that the money found was very sparse. The emperor was worried that they were not the only people involved in this case, so he …”
Before the commander of the Eastern Secret Guards could finish speaking, Cen He, the Minister of Punishment, had a slight smile on his face:
"Understand, understand."
"In that case, these prisoners will be handed over to Gu's command."
Commander Gu looked serious and responded: "Okay."
Then, he turned slightly and looked at the secret guards behind him:
"Someone come!
"Take them to prison!"
After this shout, the secret guards quickly stepped forward, took the prisoners up, and headed towards the prison of the secret guards.
Seeing this, the people in front of the stage seemed to be talking louder.
"What on earth are you playing at?"
"I do not know."
"Isn't it a quiet execution?"
"No, in my opinion, the case must have been given a lighter sentence and should be re-judged."
Not only the people were talking, but the three officials were also talking after watching the secret guards leave.
"Cen Shangshu, how come this... was investigated by the secret guards?"
"Isn't this case a matter for our Three Law Division?"
Fan He, the censor of Zuodu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, was a little puzzled.
Liu Zhen, the minister of Dali Temple on the side, looked at Cen He, the Minister of Punishment.
After listening to Fan Yushi's words and looking at Liu Siqing's look, Cen He, the Minister of Punishment, didn't quite understand, so he said it according to his own thoughts:
"Perhaps there are some flaws in this case, and the emperor is worried, so he asked the secret guards to take over the case and continue the investigation."
Upon hearing this, Liu Zhen, the minister of Dali Temple, asked:
"This can't be true."
"The investigation of this case was very good. There are 378 officials who have been affected."
After listening to Liu Siqing's words and looking at the people who were talking about each other, Cen He looked at Fan He and Liu Zhen:
"okay."
"Didn't Commander Gu just say that after finding out, this person will be handed over to us for disposal."
"In that case, let's go back and do other things first."
The two of them had no objections.
Looking at the people who were talking and reluctant to leave, Cen He, the Minister of Punishment, shouted:
"Folks!"
"Everyone go back!"
"Let's go back!"
"This... this case is quite complicated, and there are still some things that have not been resolved. This prisoner will have to be dealt with in a few days!"
"Everyone go back!"
With the shout of Cen He, the Minister of Punishment, these people went back with disappointed faces.
As everyone knows, among these people, there are Han Muxin and his maid Cen Rong, as well as a daughter-in-law of the Sun family who has not entered the house and a daughter-in-law who has entered the house.
"Miss, why don't they deal with it?"
"In this case, can the grievances between the master and the eldest young master be cleared away?"
Cen Rong, the maidservant, asked.
Listening to Cen Rong's words, Han Muxin was full of confidence: "
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Don't worry, I can get rid of it. Didn't you hear just now that the official said that there were still omissions in the case and that the execution would be carried out in a few days. "
After hearing this, the maid Cen Rong was relieved.
Li Ziqiao and Cao Qingxue on the side were also eager to see their beloved's grievances cleared.
But Master Sun Zhicai spoke first, saying that he was not in a hurry to redress their grievances.
When they came here today, they wanted to see how these traitorous ministers died for their beloved ones.
Shen Shi.
The Eastern Dark Guard ordered him to prison.
A cold breeze came out of the prison, and the air was filled with the smell of blood.
The sound of falling water kept coming from the huge prison.
"Recruit or not?!"
Without saying a word, the prisoners' bodies were sent into the water tank and out again, over and over again.
Immediately afterwards, screams came one after another.
The scream was not because of the water, but because of the injuries on his body.
As for the punishment of this secret guard, it is much more interesting and cruel than those in the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple.
The wounds on these prisoners were wrapped in a thin layer of cloth.
Don't look at the thinness of the cloth. In fact, it is to allow the water to penetrate more easily.
As everyone knows, the thin cloth behind it is actually lime.
This cloth is also very particular. Water from the outside can penetrate in, but the fine lime foam inside cannot get out.
These limes are not put on small wounds, but on big wounds. Even if there is none, the secret guards can always make a hole for you.
Everyone can understand that quicklime can generate a lot of heat when it comes into contact with water.
The wound was already very painful, but now it is so unbearable to have such lime.
Now, I see that the water in the water tank seems to be smoking.
Finally, a shout reached the ears of Gu Yong, the commander of the Eastern Dark Guard, who was sitting aside and wondering what he was thinking.
"I'll do it!"
"I'll do it!"
Hearing this sound, Commander Gu stood up and walked towards the prisoner who was shouting to be recruited.
The person shouting this was Cen Wenxing.
"explain!"
Cen Wenxing said hurriedly: "Most of the money was given to Eunuch Li."
"Eunuch Li?" Commander Gu hesitated.
Cen Wenxing nodded and continued with sweat on his face: "I gave him the money in the first place just to keep him quiet. This way the emperor was unaware of the turmoil in the court and the country."
After thinking about it, the commander reminded Gu Yong.
Isn't this person Li Zi, the personal eunuch who followed Emperor Dechang back then?
"Where are they now?"
Cen Wenxing shook his head: "I don't know, I really don't know. I really don't know where he escaped after the rebels broke into the palace."
"You really don't know?" After questioning, Commander Gu looked at the people on the side.
Seeing this, they all shook their heads.
After getting a clue, it was unclear whether they really knew it yet. Commander Gu looked at his men aside: "As long as I don't come back, the torture will continue!"
"yes."
Commander Gu turned around quickly and left in a hurry.
A series of shouts came from the prison again.
