Soul swap tyrant always wants to have a baby
Chapter 217 Dog bites dog
"Since you said this was not your fault, I will give you a chance."
"Come, bring the prisoner up and confront the Eighth Prince."
"I want to see whether those people are so audacious as to frame the prince, or whether you, as a prince, have done something wrong and are still trying to make excuses."
The man who claimed to be a member of the Cui family still had a glimmer of hope when he was brought to the palace.
When he was brought to the Qinzheng Palace, he saw the family head, the eighth prince, and the left vice minister of the Ministry of War, whom he relied on, kneeling there like quails.
Especially when he saw the Eighth Prince trembling all over with his clothes in disarray, the little fantasy in his heart instantly disappeared like a bubble.
After him, several more bloody prisoners were brought up.
Leng Qingyi raised his knife-like chin slightly, and several prisoners with sharp eyes immediately started to confess.
He confessed everything he knew, even more detailed than Leng Qingyi's first interrogation.
With the leader now in control, there was no need to pry the rest of the people open their mouths, they confessed one after another.
Including the man who claimed to be a member of the Cui clan, he also explained everything he knew.
During this period, the Cui brothers and Zhong Li Che wanted to argue countless times, but when they looked up and saw the stern face of the man on the dragon throne, they swallowed back the words they wanted to say countless times.
Cui Guan was patient. Since the emperor had informed them of the news, he also let these people confront them in court.
We will not take direct action against the Cui family, and we will definitely give them a chance to prove their innocence.
"Cui Guan, Zhong Li Che, do you have anything else to say?"
Sure enough, after the prisoners told everything they knew, Leng Qing began to question them.
Cui Guan finally felt relieved.
He straightened up and bowed deeply to the emperor sitting on the dragon throne.
"Your Majesty, I am the head of the Cui family. I can assure you with the lives of hundreds of Cui family members that this incident was definitely not done by the Cui family."
"Someone must have framed my Cui family. Your Majesty, please investigate."
Leng Qingyi curled the corners of her mouth slightly. She certainly knew that someone was framing the Cui family.
I almost know who is the mastermind behind this.
It would be too boring to just arrest someone directly.
It's interesting when dogs bite each other, just like the Queen Mother and the Yao family. Her interests can only be maximized when both sides suffer losses.
"Besides the seven or eight people here, there are dozens more in the dungeon who have confessed what they know. All the evidence points directly to your Yao family."
"Can you really clear your Cui family of suspicion with just one promise?"
"Master Cui, the Cui family is not just the main branch of your Cui family, there are also many side branches."
"Besides, not everyone in the main branch of your Cui family is innocent. What do you think, Zhongli Che?"
Cui Guan noticed that his nephew behind him was breathing rapidly, and his heart sank.
A bad premonition arises spontaneously.
Zhongli Che, who was called out, was shaking like a sieve and was about to be chopped to death.
Now that someone has testified against him, he will be tortured to death.
Thinking of this, the scene of Ye Gucheng being cut into pieces by a knife emerged uncontrollably in my mind.
My body was shaking even more violently.
It was at this moment that he saw the reality clearly.
The man sitting on the throne now doesn't regard these princes as brothers at all, just as they never took this brother seriously before.
She doesn't care about his life or death, nor is she afraid of the infamy of harming her brothers.
After all, the emperor's uncle killed two people, and the second prince was forced to commit suicide out of fear of punishment. Who knows whether it was suicide or homicide? After his death, his body could not be buried in the imperial mausoleum.
After the Yao family fell, the empress dowager was also driven to the temporary palace. The Yao family was also a century-old family, and a century-old family standing in a place like the capital.
Naturally, their strength is not much inferior to that of the Cui family, and they were dealt with at the emperor's command. So, can the Cui family that he relies on really become his confidence?
During these few moments, the Eighth Prince thought about many things, but he never thought about why he did such a thing.
Maybe it was because his brain was not smart enough to think so much at such a critical moment.
When Leng Qing saw Zhongli Che lying there shivering and not daring to look up, he felt contempt in his heart and a hint of displeasure on his face.
Nie Yueming, who had been observing the situation, saw the emperor frown and immediately understood.
The shrill voice rang in the ears of the Eighth Prince, waving the whisk.
"Eighth Prince, the Emperor is asking you a question."
Zhongli Che's body trembled again.
The first thing he said was: "I was wrong, don't torture me."
Leng Qingyi was so angry that he laughed at his timid appearance.
I don’t know where the arrogance just now has gone, now I’m starting to get scared.
"If you don't tell the truth, I will make you suffer a death ten thousand times more painful than lingchi."
The most horrifying scene Zhongli Che had witnessed in his sixteen years of living a life of luxury was Ye Gucheng being tortured to death.
He simply couldn't imagine a way of death that was ten thousand times more horrible than lingchi. He couldn't even bear the pain of a small wound and had to use the best medicine.
He caught a glimpse of the prisoners covered in blood without a single piece of good flesh, and was so scared that his abdomen tightened and he almost held his urine.
"Your Majesty, my brother, I do know something about this matter, but I definitely didn't do it. He's lying. I've never even met him."
The man who claimed to be a member of the Cui family panicked when he heard that the Eighth Prince denied it.
Thinking of the punishments he had endured, his body began to tremble.
"Eighth Prince, you can't deny it. All the things I did were instructed by your eunuch Wang Yu."
Zhongli Che's body trembled even more violently, and he was afraid to look up.
"Someone, bring Wang Yu up here."
Zhongli Che didn't take today's incident to heart at all, and never told his uncles about it.
The eunuch named Wang Yu naturally did not deal with it and followed Zhongli Che in a swagger.
The guards saw Leng Qingyi's eye signal and tortured him without asking any questions.
Leng Si felt that he was not as perverted as Leng San, and he taught all those perverted and cruel punishments to his personal guards.
Seeing Leng Qingyi's eyes, he naturally knew what to do.
Although Zhongli Che couldn't see what was happening behind him.
But Wang Yu's screams could be heard and a faint smell of blood could be smelled.
For a moment, I couldn't control myself and looked back, and was immediately shocked.
A large yellow stain also flowed out from the crotch.
Cui Guan and Cui Ze also smelled a bloody and foul odor, and thought that Wang Yu was scared to death by the severe punishment.
The guards used some cruel but not too perverted tortures on Wang Yu and then dragged him in front of several people kneeling on the ground.
Leng Qing glanced at the Cui clan member, and the man understood.
Immediately looked at Wang Yu.
"Eunuch Wang, everything I did was according to your instructions. You can't deny it."
"I am just a bastard from a branch of the Cui family. How can I afford so much money and manpower?"
"If you hadn't found me, even if I had a hundred timid people, I wouldn't have dared to do such a heinous thing."
Wang Yu turned his head with a disheveled face and looked at the person who spoke.
When he turned his head, he didn't see who was speaking, but he was frightened by Zhongli Che who looked up quietly.
Suddenly, a foul smell filled the hall.
