"What? Are you not crazy? Do I look like a kidnapper? Is there such a stupid kidnapper?" The errand runner said angrily, your uncle, I am low-key enough. I wear this outfit every time and do odd jobs. I have the same clothes, but I am still regarded as a kidnapper. What does that mean? I am obviously just a hawker. If I were a kidnapper, who would be stupid enough to come to your door and deliver a message to you? I'm not that unscrupulous yet
"You you are not a kidnapper. Why did the husband instruct me to give you a thousand dollars in the letter?" the housekeeper said in panic. Only she knows what kind of person her husband is. He always takes other people's money. , how could you give so much money to others? It was not forced. Such a thing would never happen unless Lang Jun's cousin came to visit. net
"Give me the letter. Your husband has not been kidnapped, but it is almost like kidnapping. He is in jail now. Get the money quickly. He hasn't had a good meal in several days. You also know what's going on. What can we get to eat?" asked the errand boy.
"What? You said that Lang Jun was put in a cell? How is this possible? Do you know who my husband is?" the housekeeper asked in surprise.
"It doesn't matter who he is. If you don't want your husband to continue to suffer from hunger, just bring me the money and I can leave." The errand boy said, isn't your husband just a playboy? I have seen many people like this, not to mention the nephew of the governor, even the son of a bigger official. I have seen nothing to be alarmed.
"Brother, can you explain in detail what is going on? The housekeeper woke up and asked carefully.
"This matter is so clear and you still ask? I came here on request. He couldn't eat or sleep well in prison, so he naturally needed money to buy delicious food. I don't know what exactly he committed and went to prison for. In that cell, this is kept secret, and you just need to give him money. If he needs anything, I will contact you. But if you have any questions, you can also come to me. I will leave you the address," the runner said.
This Liu Mingliang was secretly detained. All the jailers knew that the place of detention was naturally confidential, and they could not reveal it to the family members of the person involved. Otherwise, if they went directly to Dali Temple to visit the prison, they would be in trouble. Once they were found out, everyone would They can't run away. Everyone knows this kind of thing very well. What should be said and what should not be said. It is enough to reveal to them that the person is in prison. The rest is for them to find out on their own.
The Xinghuafang house is a property of Liu Mingliang's family in Chang'an City. He occasionally lives in this house when he returns to Chang'an. Most of the time, it is empty. Only the housekeeper, some shop assistants, and a few maids live here. It is in the West City. , he opened a wine shop selling wine brewed by Qinzhou Wang Erhu's workshop, and was also the only merchant in Chang'an that represented "Tianshui Pure Brewing" wine.
Liquor products are one of the best-selling products in Datang. Regardless of men and women, there are so many people who like to drink. Rich people drink high-quality Yuye wine, while poor people drink low-grade Yuye wine blended with it. Liu Mingliang will " "Tianshui Pure Brew" was introduced to Chang'an and soon established a firm foothold. Although it is not as famous as Yuye Fine Brew, it has also made a name for itself in the West City area.
The person responsible for the sales of "Tianshui Pure Brew" in Chang'an was the steward found by the "errand boy". He was also named Liu and was a distant relative of Liu Mingliang's family. He was in charge of his business in Chang'an and learned that his husband was imprisoned. , after confirming, he immediately gave the "errand boy" a thousand dollars in cash in exchange, and then walked out the door.
Liu Mingliang has been imprisoned in Dali Temple for three days. No one has come to interrogate him. The jailers have distributed money, and soon his food is better. Although there is no wine, these dishes are basically ordered from outside restaurants. Yes, he was brought in by the jailer who delivered meals every day, so he no longer had to drink the unpalatable wheat porridge every day, and the jailer here also obviously greeted him with a smile.
These are the charms of money. Liu Mingliang knows this very well, and he also got some information and naturally spent some money. The reason why he did not start the interrogation is because someone is interrogating his subordinates. As for his subordinates, they all confessed. He didn't find out about those things, and no one said anything about it no matter how much money he spent. Once the confession is completed, it will probably be his turn. This time won't be too long, and it should come soon. Liu Mingliang cursed.
"I hope these bastards will keep their mouths tighter," Liu Mingliang said secretly. Four of the arrested people were his confidants. They were involved in many things. It can also be said that they personally handled many things. Once these things are revealed, Come on, I will definitely not be able to eat and walk around in circles. It is impossible to get out of here easily. As long as they keep their mouth tight and take responsibility for the things they face, then there will be no problem.
But this thought flashed through Liu Mingliang¡¯s mind. He knew it was impossible. If he wanted to survive the interrogation in Dali Temple, he would have to endure the torture.There are not many people who can persevere. A few of my confidants usually seem quite heroic and tough. However, these interrogation officers who have been dealing with prisoners all year round are not so easy to fool. As long as they really want to punish you, they will probably Even dreaming about peeking at a beautiful woman taking a bath at night can be found out.
He had seen the process of interrogating prisoners in the Qinzhou Yamen, and he had only one feeling: those prisoners would be better off dead than alive, so if he expected his subordinates to keep secrets, it would be better to believe in the rooster laying eggs. At present, his only hope is that his housekeeper can He quickly reported the matter to his uncle Liu Changyuan. Only he could find a way to save himself, and no one else could. As for whether he could withstand the torture, Liu Mingliang had no idea at all.
"This is Liu Mingliang, right? This kid has a good face. Take him to the torture chamber." A man in dark green robes who looked like an official said, his voice was a bit shrill. Liu Mingliang looked at the person carefully. His face was white and beardless. A eunuch.
"This little thing will alert the eunuch to interrogate me?" Liu Mingliang was shocked, knowing that his affairs were in trouble. Who is the eunuch? Those are the people serving the harem around the Holy One. At least it can be concluded that this matter has alarmed the Holy One. If this is the case, then it will be useless to find anyone to intercede or interfere. Who dares to go against the Holy One's wishes unless he is tired of living? .
Liu Mingliang knows that things are getting more difficult. The only way now is to resist and refuse to admit his guilt. Only in this way, there may be some hope, but thinking about the prisoners who are being tortured in the prison, can he really bear it? "You can't handle it." Once you confess the matter, your uncle, the governor, will be pulled down first. Without this important backstage, who will dare to help you again?
Liu Mingliang was pulled out of the cell door with handcuffs and shackles by four guards. He had never seen these four guards. They were not the ones guarding him. They might have been arranged from other places. The guard who opened the cell door When he opened the door, the look in his eyes clearly said, "Take care of yourself. There's nothing we can do to help you."
The execution room was not small. It was more than half the size of the cell Liu Mingliang lived in. As soon as the door was opened, you could see a door-shaped wooden frame, which was made of logs thicker than the mouth of a bowl. It was deep and Buried deep into the ground, the original color of the log can no longer be seen. It is dark black. Needless to say, it is the stain of dried blood. Iron chains as thick as an adult's finger are tied to the wooden frame. In addition to this, there are also walls in the room. There were whips, bamboo sticks, wooden sticks and other torture instruments hanging on it, as well as a charcoal stove with some iron bars and shovel-like things placed on it.
"How is it? Do you want to say it yourself or do we help you remember it?" The eunuch in green said with a smile, as if this was not an interrogation but a discussion about something. Liu Mingliang, who was tied to the door frame, looked like a Tai character. , not only were his hands spread apart, but his legs were also spread apart. At this time, his legs were trembling uncontrollably, as if they were about to convulse.
"This this official, I don't know what you asked me to say, why I was arrested, I didn't commit anything, why are you imprisoning me here, I am unjust" Liu Mingliang cried and said, tears It all flowed down, it looked like someone had been wronged.
"Hehe Boy, do you like to complain? You are still pretending when you come here. Do you know where this is? This is Dali Temple. It is not easy to come in, but once you are in, it is even more difficult to get out, unless you confess happily. , otherwise you will scream." The eunuch in green pinched Liu Mingliang's chin and said fiercely.
What he said is absolutely right. It is really not easy to get into the Dali Temple prison. Generally, cases are tried at Wannian or Changan County Yamen. After completion, you just need to report to Dali Temple. After Dali Temple review, It can be executed. Those who can be imprisoned in Dali Temple are relatively serious cases that need to be tried by the three departments of the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, and Yushitai. Today, Liu Mingliang¡¯s trial included a eunuch. Logically speaking, this is the case It's against procedure.
In fact, this is a very normal matter and is treated under special circumstances. Liu Mingliang is in secret custody. His case has not been officially filed. The current interrogation is just to find evidence because he is not the main culprit and the main target has not been arrested because there is no definite evidence, and Li Longji was worried about these people in prison, so he sent a eunuch in charge of punishment from the harem.
Liu Mingliang was very smart. When he saw a eunuch coming to supervise him, he knew that the matter was not that simple. He had already alerted the Holy Emperor. Logically speaking, this matter should not lead to such a big fight, but now something unexpected has happened. If the Holy Lord intervenes, something will happen. Either it will be a solid case, or you just don¡¯t want the matter to escalate. If it¡¯s the former, there¡¯s nothing more to say. If it¡¯s the latter, there¡¯s hope of saving the matter.
