At noon the next day, the sun was shining brightly.
Qin Geng, who was sure that he was really safe, came to Tianlao.
Just like following the wet market.
The officials involved in the case mainly begged for mercy and proved their innocence.
"Your Majesty, I am wronged. I have nothing to do with the Tianli Sect rebels. I was coerced."
"Your Majesty, your Majesty, Ren'an is not just waiting to see success or failure."
"Your Majesty, I just didn't suppress it well enough, please spare my life."
…
Tenri believers mainly scolded the emperor and had mental breakdowns.
"The Dog Emperor is going against the grain and taking the lead in annexing land. He will die a good death sooner or later."
"Emperor Dog, grandpa is waiting for you below."
"The leader is invincible, how could he lose? How could he lose? Wuwuwu..."
"The leader holds the sun and the moon in his hands and picks up the stars, woo woo woo..."
…
Qin Geng turned a deaf ear and went directly into the room where the jailers usually gathered.
It smells like sweat, alcohol, cigarette...all kinds of smells.
Qin Geng pinched his nose and looked.
The jailers were still gambling enthusiastically, but Lu Jianxing was missing.
"It's done, it's done and we'll leave."
The people sitting in the village were very happy.
The person sitting in the village is called Shen Lian. He is no less tall than Lu Jianxing and has a handsome appearance.
The disadvantage is that he spends too much and often goes to Jiaofangsi. That place is not a place where jailers can go casually. Not only does Shen Lian often go there, it is said that he also likes to order the top girl Miaotong there.
"Xiao Qin, come on"
Shen Lian greeted warmly.
Qin Geng walked over and placed a tael of silver.
"Open, kill them all."
Shen Lian smiled brightly, and with the pig's trotters he had just eaten, which were so oily, he took all the money in front of him.
I have enough money to play with Miss Miaotong again.
"Where's Lu Jianxing?"
Qin Geng asked.
The jailers fell silent for a moment.
After a while, Qin Geng learned good news and bad news from the jailers.
The good news is that it was Zhan Hui who led the attack on Tianlao last night. After the defeat, Zhan Hui escaped. It is estimated that he will be sent in soon, and he can take revenge after waiting for six years.
The bad news is that Lu Jianxing is dead. He knew beforehand that the Tianli Sect was going to rebel, but he made the opposite choice and took refuge in the sky prison. During the fight between the two sides, he was hacked to death.
At this moment, there was a burst of noise. Qin Geng looked along the sound and saw Zhan Hui being tied up and escorted in.
Six years ago, this dear friend was sent to prison and was completely given up by his backers.
Not surprisingly, even if his family is not implicated, their class will inevitably decline, and not a few generations will be able to recover from it.
Unexpectedly, he fell in love with the favored Concubine Zheng.
With a lot of money, big things have turned into small things. In the past few years, I have been to the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Rites as a minister, and I have enjoyed my official career.
What is even more unexpected is that he actually became a member of the Tianli Sect.
When Zhan Hui passed by Qin Geng, his head was lowered, his eyes were bloodshot, and the shocking whip marks on his body were no longer as impressive as before.
After Zhan Hui's figure disappeared, Shen Lian on the side said: "As a jailer, I can make hundreds of taels a year. Zhan Hui has been a minister for so many years, and he has made hundreds of thousands of taels at least."
"Hundreds of thousands taels, who do you look down on?"
Pei Lun came over eating mung bean cake.
He sneered and said: "I have a good brother who works in Jinyiwei. He went to Zhan Hui's house before dawn. According to him, the cash in cash is more than two million taels."
Two million taels.
Qin Geng and Shen Lian both took a breath.
They have to work in Tianlao for thousands of years to earn two million taels.
This is not all Zhan Hui's property.
"No wonder so many people are vying to become officials."
Shen Lian was filled with emotions.
The eyes are glowing.
Not long after.
Qin Geng and Shen Lian came to Cell No. 9 where Zhan Hui was.
The Heavenly Prison is divided into four levels: the Heavenly Cell, which is for the emperor's relatives; the Earth Prison, which is for officials and nobles; the Xuan Prison, which is for martial arts masters and rich people; and the Yellow Prison, which is for the poor.
"I was wronged"
Shouts of grief and indignation came from other cells.
This is a truly upright official, not an upright official packaged by aristocratic families.
No one wanted to see him in the sky jail. The light on his body was so bright that it hurt everyone's eyes.
After Qin Geng shook his head, he said to Zhan Hui, who was sitting against the wall: "Sir, we have the reason why we came here, so there is no need to say more."
Zhan Hui, as the former third-in-command of the Ministry of Punishments and the biggest beneficiary of every money split, naturally knew the purpose of the two men's visit.
He nodded and said, "I also hid thirty-five thousand taels under the ruins of the Main Hall of Wan'an Temple."
Really good at hiding.
Qin Geng said: "Is there anyone else you want to see before your death? There is an additional charge for this."
"No need, it's just causing sorrow."
Zhan Hui waved his hand and leaned against the wall with a frustrated expression on his face.
Qin Geng walked over, raised his hand, and slapped Zhan Hui on the face.
A clear slap mark immediately appeared.
"you"
Zhan Hui's fair face showed an angry look. A despicable jailer dared to beat him. Is there any way for him to do this? Is there any more heavenly justice?
Immediately, he remembered that he was already a member of the Tenri Sect who was hated by people and a condemned prisoner, and his expression changed into a dejected expression.
Snapped!
Qin Geng slapped Zhan Hui again.
"We are clean"
Qin Geng said calmly.
Originally, he wanted Zhan Hui to call him grandpa, but after thinking about it, he decided not to. Rabbits bite when they are anxious, not to mention that they have been a minister for so many years.
"Go get something"
Shen Lian, who had already walked out of the cell, urged.
Qin Geng turned and left.
"Today we know the dignity of the jailer"
Zhan Hui's face was full of bitterness.
Outside, Shen Lian said with a smile: "I can't tell that you, a boy who is usually so amiable, hold such a grudge."
Qin Geng said in his heart that it was Buddha's business to forgive him.
After a while, Qin Geng and Shen Lian came to the No. 9 cell where Zhan Hui was located again, put down the decapitated rice and strong wine, took the prepared cloth from the side, and sealed the cell.
Then he brought in the prepared charcoal basin.
The death method Tianlao prepared for Zhan Hui was to die of suffocation while drunk, with very little pain.
Zhan Hui took a bite of meat and took a sip of strong wine that he had never drunk before. These days, people of high status don't drink strong alcohol.
Soon, he became dizzy.
"I came from a poor family, but I was very smart and eager to learn since I was a child. When I became an adult, because of my ability in doing things, I was recommended as a small official in charge of the granary. Once, I saw a rat in the toilet of the official's house, eating dirty food. Dirty feces, and often disturbed by humans and dogs. When I came to the granary, I saw that the rats in the granary were eating mountains of grain and living in large houses without anyone disturbing them. I suddenly understood. , a person's future is just like this mouse, it depends on whether he can find a place for himself to display his talents. I worked hard for the imperial examination, found a backer, and became the right minister of the Ministry of Justice. I had a dream at night, and it would come true the next day. I I was able to leave the officialdom several times, but I refused to leave, and finally ended up like this. The rat made me successful, but also harmed me."
Zhan Hui sighed repeatedly.
He also whispered that he wanted to lead the yellow dog again with his children and grandchildren, and they all went out of the east gate to chase cunning rabbits. How could it be achieved?
After saying that, Zhan Hui held up the official hat on his head.
Due to the hasty imprisonment, Zhan Hui's official title has not yet been taken off.
"So, it's better to be a rat in the toilet of an official's house. You don't have much to eat, but you're safe."
Qin Geng secretly warned himself.
