Chapter 693 Purpose
Zuo Tai was shocked and suddenly woke up. Then he gritted his teeth and glared at Zhu Xie.
Zhu Jie looked as usual and said, "Take a nail and nail his fingers to me!"
Zuo Tai's face suddenly changed, and he gritted his teeth and endured the pain and shouted: "Do you dare to torture me!? Do you know what the consequences will be? This incident will inevitably cause an uproar in the court. The court will definitely deal with Zong Ze and others and appease the criticism of the court and the people! If you torture me at this time, you will die without a place to bury me!"
Zuo Tai was roaring and roaring.
There was a yamen runner with a gentle face on the side. He glanced at Zhu Jie and then at the guards of the Nanhuangcheng Municipal Department, which had been arranged here, with a hint of worry in his expression.
Zuo Tai was right. This matter was originally very big. The court's way of handling it was likely that Zong Ze and others were dismissed, and officials of all sizes of **** West Road could not escape subsequent accountability.
Zhu Xie used to torture Zuo Tai at this time and would inevitably be settled by Qiu Hou!
Zhu Xie waved his fingers lightly without any fear.
The criminal officer took the nail and the hammer stepped forward.
He forced himself to spread Zuo Tai's right hand, and a nail slashed from his palm towards his thumb.
The criminal officer tried very hard, and the fat flesh flipped around wherever he passed, and blood flowed.
Zuo Tai never thought that Zhu Xie was still so brave!
He tilted his head, endured the pain, looked at the judge with his eyes wide open, pinned a nail in the center of his thumb, and raised the hammer high.
Bang
The criminal officer did not hesitate at all and knocked it down with a fierce hammer.
The nail penetrated Zuo Tai's thumb and pierced deeply into the wood behind his fingers.
“Ah~”
An extremely shrill scream came from Zuo Tai's mouth, and his whole body trembled violently, his neck was as stammering as iron.
Ten fingers are connected to the heart, this kind of pain is twice as painful when knocked on the toe!
The criminal officer seemed to enjoy this scream, listened quietly for a while, and looked back at Zhu Xie.
Zhu Xie had no expression on his face, and there seemed to be a sense of pleasure in his eyes.
Seeing this, the officer of the Zheng took out a nail from his waist and pressed it to Zuo Tai's index finger on his right hand.
Zuo Tai was frightened and shouted anxiously: "Stop! Stop!"
"continue."
Zhu Xie said lightly.
Bang
Another heavy hammer passed through and nailed Zuo Tai's index finger tightly to the wooden stake.
“Ah~”
Another scream that was even more shrill than before, Zuo Tai gritted his teeth tightly, his eyes as bloodshot was about to be cracked.
He wanted to faint, but he was very awake and felt the severe pain in his fingers.
The criminal officer took a look and then took out a nail from his waist.
Zuo Tai caught a glimpse, looked at Zhu Xie suddenly, and said anxiously: "I will, I will, whatever you ask, I will help you!"
Zhu Xie raised his hand and stopped the criminal officer, saying, "The first question is, who came up with the idea of this matter?"
Zuo Tai said instinctively: "It is the old magistrate of Fuzhou Prefecture. Wang Zheng is angry. He is a scholar of Longtuzhi. Because he does not reduce his anger, the court wants to measure his territory. He is very angry, so he came up with this idea."
Zhu Xie glanced at the clerk recorded not far away and said, "The second question is, who was the one who connected and executed it?"
"It's Xun Jie, he is the closed disciple of the old prefect. He found the three of us and then pulled Liu Luo. I targeted the official road. Xun Jie was a bridge, Xu Zhongkai was a canal, and Yan Yi was going to set fire..." Zuo Tai said quickly without thinking.
Zhu Xie said: "How did you connect? So many people are willing to listen to you?"
Zuo Tai said: "We have been operating in Fuzhou Prefecture for many years. If we promise a few more people, there will be a lot of people available. Some of them are desperate people. They dare to do anything with money..."
Zhu Xie kept staring at Zuo Tai's expression, and seeing that he didn't look like he was lying, he said, "Name."
Zuo Tai's face was full of ferociousness, endured the severe pain, and said, "I know who knows me, I don't know the others, Wang Zhenjie, Liu Guoyong, Chen Mingtai..."
Zhu Xie glanced at him, and the civil servant beside him recorded quickly.
Zhu Jie had never heard of these names. Either they had a small official position or had no official position. They were a local gentry and wealthy family.
After Zuo Tai finished speaking, Zhu Xie said, "What else is there to say?"
Zuo Tai seemed to have recovered a little and said, "No, I have said everything I should say. If you let me go, I will give you the money."
Zhu Xie signaled to the criminal officer.
“Ah~”
Zuo Tai's body trembled and shouted anxiously: "Also, they have written a letter to the capital. This is just an appetizer. They want to cause trouble in the capital, destroy Zong Ze and others, and abolish the "New Policy"!"
Zhu Jie's face changed suddenly, and he finally seemed to have figured out something.
He didn't ask again, took the confession written by the clerk, turned around and left.
Zuo Tai's three fingers were nailed to death, and the pain was unbearable. He watched Zhu Xie walk out with pain and gloom.
Zhu Xie took the confession and came to Ge Linjia's temporary study.
While watching, he listened to Zhu Xie's report.
When Ge Linjia heard the word "Beijing City", he suddenly woke up and said, "Let's go! Go and see the governor immediately!"
Ge Linjia realized that these things in Jiangnan West Road were just a fuse, the real dangerous place was in Bianjing!
Zhu Jie was positioned as an "official". He was not qualified to participate in this kind of thing. Listening to Ge Linjia's words, he said: "Master, will the person on this list continue to be arrested?"
"Okay, stay, no, let Nanhuangcheng Department do it, you come with me!" Ge Linjia's words suddenly changed.
Zhu Xie was stunned, and then realized Zhu Xie's kindness and bowed and said, "Thank you, Mr. Man."
Ge Linjia walked in front without looking back. He did intend to protect Zhu Xie so that he would not be liquidated later. At the same time, he really hated Li Yan and Nanhuangchengsi.
Ge Linjia and Zhu Xie rode their horses and rushed directly to Hongzhou Prefecture.
Li Yan, who was hiding in Linchuan County, soon received Zong Ze's latest order and Ge Linjia's message, and immediately felt like he was treasured!
He looked at the list one by one, and new and old hatreds surged, and said coldly: "According to the list, everyone will be arrested for me, no one will be missed, the house will be searched, and exiled. Whoever dares to resist will be executed on the spot!"
Li Yan has been too frustrated recently. He finally wanted to catch Liu Luo and vent, but he almost fell into the trap.
"yes!"
The guards of the Nanhuangcheng Division shouted loudly, and they were also frustrated!
Li Yan looked at a group of people carefully and took the lead in leaving this private house. He began to catch people in a rampant order of official positions, property, fame, etc.
Yan Yi from Chongren County and Xu Zhongkai from Yihuang County also sent people to catch him. There was lightning all the way, as if he was not afraid that they would run away, but to snatch something.
At noon the next day, Ge Linjia and Zhu Xie rushed to the Governor's Office.
After hearing this, Liu Zhiyi was quite worried and said, "This matter will definitely make the court angry and the government angry. I don't know what kind of thunder will be brought down..."
Zong Ze's originally gloomy expression slowly relaxed.
Zhou Wentai's frowning brows were slightly relaxed.
They are the people who know the court the most. They will have a headache when they do things on Jiangnan West Road, but if they are in the capital and want to make trouble in the capital, they are wrong!
A big mistake!
What awaits them will not be the result they want, but will be the most severe blow!
