Since there is space, it is naturally the best to buy it for 0 yuan

Of course, there are also some fools who think they are of iron will and cannot be moved by poverty or power, and they just refuse to write.

Yiren said with a smile, "None of the people involved in the cases handled by our prince committed suicide, and no one dared to stubbornly refuse to confess. Do you know why?

If anyone dares to commit suicide or keeps talking back, our prince will cut his entire family into pieces.

You don't have to explain, that's fine, but I don't know if you can bear to leave your family behind. Can your family withstand the ordeal?

We’ll just have to wait and see.”

Of course, this is definitely not true, but these people love to use their imagination and make their own guesses.

As soon as Yiren finished speaking, the people who were writing obviously wrote much faster.

I was afraid that if I wasn't careful, I would anger this gentleman and he would take his anger out on my family.

Others said they could not believe it, but this gentleman didn't.

Otherwise, as officials appointed by the imperial court, they should not be treated so indecently even if they become prisoners.

But you see, these people dare to do it.

Kicking an imperial official is a crime, but look at how naturally these people kick him. It's obvious that they do it often. They can't afford to take the risk.

So, I wrote faster.

If someone else writes about the same crime first, he will lose the initiative and his guilt may be more serious.

As a result of this competition, everyone wrote faster and more quickly.

Be sure to be the first person to confess the case.

Didn’t they just say that those who confess will be treated leniently, while those who resist will be treated severely?

At this point, even the man who was so strong before no longer held his neck high.

He lowered his head and honestly found an empty table to start writing.

Shen Ruyi sat down and continued to read the various letters that she had found from Prefect Shao.

As I watched, I discovered something interesting: Prefect Shao and Prince Min were actually brothers-in-law.

Prince Min's concubine and the prefect's wife are sisters with the same father and mother.

The letter mentioned the wives of several families, all of whom were related to them.

A huge network is spread through women's marriages, and it is played by powerful people.

Sure enough, whether in modern times or ancient times, people without power and influence cannot become high-ranking officials.

The path to upward mobility has long been blocked by these aristocratic families, and people at the bottom simply cannot get up.

No wonder many emperors were easily sidelined by the high-ranking officials below them?

The people below are almost all family members, and one move can affect the whole body.

I just wonder what this King Min is like? Is he involved?

Unexpectedly, the first person to finish writing was Dou Tongpan here.

Shen Ruyi took a look at what this person had written, and thought he was playing a trick on her. What kind of thing was this?

I haven't even taken a tael of silver, are you kidding me?

Seeing Shen Ruyi's face change and about to explode, Dou Tongpan quickly knelt on the ground and explained:

"Your Majesty, it's not that I don't want to explain, I just don't know what they did specifically.

I've only been here for a little over a year, and they're all wary of me. They've also sidelined me, and I can't do anything.

Really, Your Highness, if you don’t believe me, you can send someone to inquire outside.

Some people here even treat me as a joke.

I've never been involved in anything that's good for them. They only think of me when they're in trouble. Really, I didn't lie to you and I wouldn't dare to.

All I know is that they had already discussed with the local big families how to divide up the various benefits in proportion.

Every day when I go to the yamen, I just sign in and report in. But in fact, I don’t have to do anything and no one allows me to do anything.

Even the government affairs that belong to me are in the hands of a few people. I just drink tea and look at the sky every day and can't do anything.

If I hadn't accepted my fate and given in, I might not have survived until now.

If you don’t believe me, ask those present here; they can all vouch for me.”

As a result, no one agreed or refuted what Dou Tongpan said, and no one paid any attention to it.

At this point, Shen Ruyi believed the other party a little, "I hope you are not lying. If I find out later that you dare to play tricks on me..."

"I dare not, I really don't dare. I guarantee with my whole family's lives that every word I say is true."

Shen Ruyi said: "I trust you for now, and you will take over all the affairs here for the time being.

The first thing is to be responsible for rescuing the victims outside the city. Someone will cooperate with you in this regard.

Ying Shiliu, go and help Dou Tongpan and stay beside him.

No one except you is allowed to enter or leave the city gate. If anyone dares to leave, I will kill his entire clan."

Dou Tongpan was stunned for a long time before he reacted and said quickly: "Thank you, Your Majesty. I obey your order."

Ying Shiliu immediately agreed. His master wanted him to monitor Dou Tongpan while helping to stabilize the situation.

As for Nanny Yang, she took people out of the house to buy medicine at dawn. She estimated that the herbs would be almost ready by now.

The people who were writing saw Dou Tongpan suddenly stride out from beside them with a proud and heroic look.

What's the situation?

Could it be that this bastard confessed so much quickly that he was freed?

Is the King of Donghai so easy to talk to?

That shouldn't be the case. Hasn't this bastard always been sidelined? What could he know?

Could it be that this bastard's daily cowardly behavior is just an act to deceive them?

Was he deliberately trying to let them down? Could it be that this bastard had all the evidence?

The more I thought about it, the more it seemed right, and it scared these people so much that they read what they had written again.

Just to see if there's anything I've missed, and to get my brain working at high speed?

Recall it carefully again and again to see if you can remember anything important.

If the other person wrote it but you didn’t, that would be a big taboo.

As people finished writing one after another, several tables became empty.

Shen Ruyi had several of Shao Zhifu's staff members splashed with cold water to wake them up and asked them to start confessing.

"Your Shao Zhifu has already been imprisoned. To be honest, whether you confess or not will not have much impact on us.

But for you, the difference is huge. Life or death? If you die, how you die is entirely determined by your own behavior."

After hearing this, the staff didn't take it too seriously.

I originally wanted to establish his image as a mighty and unyielding person. If he betrays his master for a small matter, who would dare to employ him?

When I turned around, I saw many familiar faces writing quietly.

At this point, what is there to not understand? These bastards have been tortured to death and have confessed everything.

If I insist on taking the path of being mighty and unyielding now, it seems that there is no hope, as the road has already been blocked.

So after weighing the pros and cons, I followed the crowd and told the truth.
