Chapter 794
I don’t know how long it took, but Shaojun, whose eyes were scattered and his appearance was intact, slumped on the ground like a doll; but his face and chest were covered with traces of tears that had dried up again. His body was filled with the strong smell of sweat, blood, and other bodily fluids.
As for Yan Ting, who was responsible for the specific actions, although she still looked miserable with her hair disheveled, barefoot and half-clothed, her eyes became brighter and brighter, eagerly anticipating the next question or order from Jiang Tian. Most of the drawers and cages on the walls were also opened.
Most of them are rare treasures and bills and documents from Shaojun's personal collection; but there are also a small number of other miscellaneous things. For example, there are more than a dozen blank notices awarded by the imperial court and stamped by the Shangshu Province; ranging from the ninth-rank Mowei County Magistrate to the fifth-rank Zhonglang.
Another example is an edict issued by the late emperor before his abdication, which allows for the use of title and rank as compensation for crimes; as long as it does not involve any of the ten evils such as rebellion, the imperial edict can be used in accordance with the "Eight Discussions" of the imperial court. Yousi's sentence was gradually reduced and reduced; the sentence was to be confined at home for self-examination.
Obviously, the late emperor took great pains to preserve this unique illegitimate son and arrange his posthumous affairs. Although this thing is not as good as the so-called death-free gold medal in later generations, it is still a rarity among the princes and vassals.
In addition, there is a large stack of specially marked and categorized correspondence. There is no specific signature, but a more intimate font size is used or a personal stamp is used. Jiang Tian only read a few letters and felt that they were shrouded in mist and unclear, but they were obviously important documents and records.
You need to go back and find someone to sort it out again, and compare it with the documents issued by the imperial court, and you may be able to get some clues. In another steel-locked cabinet, there are other official documents; Zha Zi from the three provinces and six departments of the imperial court, as well as official documents from the three divisions and four envoys of Hebei Province.
But I don’t know why it was specially collected here. In the hidden partition underneath these official documents, Jiang Tian rummaged through and found a stack of various documents. Among them are various confessions and reports, as well as confessions from people with different identities.
There are also blood-stamped handwritten letters that have confessed to the crime; most of them are confessions from distinguished guests who lost control after drinking, or accidentally went crazy, resulting in the death of the maid who was sleeping with him. At first glance, it looks like some kind of tried-and-tested routine that was wholesaled.
In addition, there are some important evidences and clues involving the old cases of the government; some indirect evidence and records of local officials’ personal misconduct, personal malpractice, or serious negligence; but it is not known by what means, Collected in this treasure room.
It even includes records that the former censor of Yanshan South Road was secretly fond of raising handsome prostitutes and driving them to have fornications with concubines in court. Obviously, this is the main method and basis for the Yanshan Palace to have powerful hands and eyes in the local area and secretly collude with countless officials.
However, this raises another question: Where is the channel to obtain this intelligence and information? Obviously, the Yanshan Palace has a very deep network of informants and spies in private, so that it can be more efficient and effective in secret than the official organizations that control each other.
But what is unexpected is that even though Shaojun was severely tortured/under the great memory recovery technique, he knew very little about it and could not explain it in detail. Most of the time he only knew how to play and have fun, and people would regularly send these things to him. He didn't even look at them when he collected them.
Only when you need to use something, you will extract it and hand it over to the specific person in charge under the prompts of people around you; but you don't need to worry too much, you can still solve the corresponding problem, or To make an obstacle disappear; to remove an objectionable object.
In contrast, what was considered the most important and critical thing in his subconscious mind was a diary. Although normally, a serious person would keep a diary; but out of some shady need to show off and vent, he still kept a diary in private.
However, when Jiang Tian followed his confession and found several diaries filled with words in the most hidden corner, his expression was a little subtle. This is because the diaries are not written in a normal writing style; instead, they use drawings and symbols that look like children’s graffiti.
Therefore, Jiang Tian had to spend more time waking him up and cutting off several body extremities before letting him describe the log clearly, roughly recording the process and reading comprehension method. It mainly records things that he considered important or commemorative since childhood.
For example, the woman he was first attracted to and inspired by was the female official who was with the former King of Yanshan County; then, because he was not good or bad at the scene, he developed an indescribable sense of shame and stabbed the woman who had been coerced into submission with chopsticks and daggers. Died; and thus awakened to face the excitement of blood.
Then he began to like all kinds of hunting and killing creatures. When he was interested, he would live in the wild Hu Tianhudi; until he accidentally shot and killed a slave who was responsible for raising dogs; and then a new one was born. pleasure. He began to lead teams to attack some homeless settlements in the Yanshan Mountains.
Later, the savages and wanderers could no longer satisfy his hobby; they began to dress up as bandits and thieves on the border, and attacked and killed some mountain people villages among the Liaodong princes overnight with open fires and sticks; they even killed business travelers and bandits who happened to pass by unintentionally. Pedestrians and even vassal officials from other vassals.
Then, it caused long-term suspicion and tension among several nearby princes; it even attracted investigation and mediation by imperial envoys; only then was he able to calm down for a while. But what's even more ridiculous is that he participated in the entire investigation process on behalf of the Anton Protectorate.
In the end, it was a gang of thieves that roamed the grasslands and acted as the culprit in the final settlement of the case in the bait and traps set up and down the Anton Protectorate. His hobby didn't stop, it just became more hidden; the target also became the border department.
Because these small tribes migrated between Yanbian garrison forts and the princes outside the Great Wall according to seasonal needs; every year, some were accidentally destroyed due to natural disasters and man-made disasters, or it was difficult to continue to gather and disperse, and there were very few people. Will care about their movements and life and death.
Therefore, it was easy for this young monarch and the many relatives, nobles, ministers and disciples who gathered around him to kill for fun. And because of the historical legacy of the Yanbian Zone as a buffer zone, even if someone discovers clues, it will be difficult to trace and hold accountable.
Occasionally, there were a few stupid young people who wanted to find some explanation for these homeless people who died unexpectedly outside the Great Wall; but without even Shaojun taking action and expressing his position, they were soon belittled to the point of being helpless by the operation of the fathers and brothers of the dear children around him. They may go to far away places under their jurisdiction, or they may be scattered around.
If this inertia continues, it is very likely that one day, Shaojun will no longer be able to fill the emptiness and bloodthirsty desire in his heart; and on the basis of all this, he will do even more outrageous and cruel things, and finally alert the court to take corresponding measures. . But the outbreak of beast disaster changes everything.
And Shaojun is like an older child who is tired of playing with old things. He soon finds new fun and is tired of playing with old things. However, this instead became a new man-made disaster that quietly occurred under the leadership of the Yanshan Palace and the Anton Protectorate; it was only covered up by the monsters and changes.
Especially after his predecessor, the Prince of Yanshan County, died of illness in the Eastern Capital due to excessive drinking and debauchery; and the Princess of Yanshan, who was the only one who could restrain him, also died suddenly of a sudden illness; this allowed the young prince who was responsible for staying at the feudal residence to further let himself go and exhaust himself. Means to find all kinds of excitement and fun.
Even his private actions were supported and secretly protected by some powerful people in the capital who had always been on good terms with or had interests in the family; there were also some criminals who came here to seek cover, or to get into trouble. The high-ranking disciples in the lawsuit defected to his subordinates, and that's how everything happened.
Among them, the more eye-catching ones include people with whom Jiang Tian had indirect dealings; the in-laws of Gao Wentai, the defense manager of the Eastern Capital, Liu Shuixin, the prince of Muguo; the princes outside the Great Wall who are adjacent to the Andong Protectorate, Heishan Domain of Songmo Dudufu, contemporary envoy/Gongsun Han Wudai,
However, after hearing this, the maid Yan Ting, who was applying the powder on Shao Jun again, suddenly stopped her movements. She kowtowed heavily to Jiang Tian and said: "I dare to overstep my bounds. I pray for mercy from the noble man. I have nothing to say to you." I am unhappy and want to ask this little beast?"
"It doesn't matter, your performance is worthy of this question." Jiang Tian nodded, then kicked Shaojun, who was twitching on the ground, and put a small mirage in front of his nose: "Next, It's up to you to ask the questions, and I'll make sure that what he said is true or false."
"Thank you, noble man, for your success." Yan Ting kowtowed again and again: Then she stood up and turned around, hunched over into a ball as if she were in the mother's body; she said in a deep voice that contained emotions and meanings: "The princess back then How much does your sudden death from a sudden illness have to do with you?"
"Mother, she..." However, Shaojun, who temporarily relaxed his body due to the short-term stimulation of the mirage smell, showed an expression of disgust, hatred and struggle, and said in a hoarse voice: "It doesn't matter. It’s too much, so someone give me a painless prescription.”
"It turns out that you know everything, all of this is your plan." However, Yan Ting once again left two light red blood lines in her eyes; she looked at Shaojun like a life-threatening ghost and said: "But still I took the opportunity to investigate the crime and let the maid next to the princess suffer all kinds of torture."
"In the end, with full of regret and reluctance, you have to be humiliated and reduced to a humble body, enduring the frustration and abuse day after day, and you can only drink in hatred? They obviously took care of you when you were young. When I grew up, I was promised by the princess to a well-matched family."
"They deserve this. Why should they talk so much in front of their mother and concubine?" The crouched young master muttered unconsciously: "If not for this, how could I legitimately get and deal with them, and gain from them?" Enough fun?”
"Because, I like to see them repenting over and over again, but they have to give in to me!" At this point, Shaojun, who was curled up in a ball, started to smile to himself: "It's actually Is there anyone out there who wants to let Yu off with flattery?"
"I see, that's it...we were all wrong." At this moment, Yan Ting, who was originally looking very pale, covered her face and said with a dejected smile: "This little beast deceived everyone, and also made everyone Everyone is in dire straits..."
However, at this time, there was a sudden sound of soft footsteps on the wall and in the pipe used to listen and observe the outside movement; it was obvious that someone had already searched the area near the palace.
