Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    It was night, but the Dali Temple prison was still brightly lit, and Dali Temple Shaoqing Zhou Xing was still busy in the prison.  Within the prison, many jailers were also busy going back and forth, and the sound of tortured prisoners could be heard from inside.  Of course, it must be mixed with the heart-stopping wails of the beaten prisoners.  Zhou Xing is also doing something similar to the jailers. Today he is interrogating an important prisoner in person.  It was none other than Wei Xuantong, a third-rank disciple of Tongzhongshu, who had just been put into prison by him.  Since Wei Xuantong was secretly arrested and imprisoned, Zhou Xing has personally interrogated him for many hours, but unfortunately he didn't get anything he needed.  When Wei Xuantong was arrested and imprisoned, Helan Minzhi had personally asked him not to torture Wei Xuantong, and he could not do anything wrong to Wei Xuantong for the time being.  Zhou Xing naturally strictly obeyed He Lan Minzhi's instructions and treated Wei Xuantong courteously.  However, he was still scolded several times by Wei Xuantong. The scolding made him almost lose his temper and ordered Wei Xuantong to be beaten up. However, he did not dare to disobey Helan Minzhi's orders and could only "treat him politely".  Wei Xuantong was an upright person and did not deny what he said while drunk, but he refused to admit guilt, saying that he would have said the same thing in front of Wu Zetian.  Of course Zhou Xing was furious, but Wei Xuantong was too lazy to pay attention to him. He didn't have much choice but to record everything Wei Xuantong said in detail, and tried to induce confessions from time to time. He also tried his best to blame Chen Yi on Chen Yi, hoping that Wei Xuantong would confess.  These words are what Chen Yi meant.  Having been promoted to the position of Shaoqing of Dali Temple just a few months ago, Zhou Xing was full of enthusiasm and wanted to get out of his way to make some achievements, not to disappoint the person who recommended him, He Lan Minzhi, but also to let Empress Dowager Wu Zetian  Watch with admiration.  He is a smart man, after what happened.  He was very aware of the fight between Chen Yi and He Lan Minzhi, and also figured out Wu Zetian's current attitude towards Chen Yi from Wu Zetian's acquiescence in He Lan Minzhi's behavior, so he tried his best to divert the matter to Chen Yi.  If this matter is confirmed and Wei Xuantong or Chen Yi are accused of treason, it will be a very sensational thing, and he will immediately become a man of the hour, and it is certain that he will be promoted again.  It is not impossible to even become one of Helan Minzhi or Wu Zetian's most trusted figures.  After Zhou Xing came to Dali Temple, he also used his intelligence to invent many new interrogation methods.  He even used a lot of torture tools. Many prisoners couldn't resist his powerful moves and confessed one after another, which gave him a sense of accomplishment.  He also wanted to use these methods against Wei Xuantong, but He Lan Minzhi's instructions made him dare not let go.  This made him very regretful, but he still thought of ways to trick Wei Xuantong's words.  "But Wei Xuantong is not an ordinary person.  Then I finally understood what Zhou Xing meant.  He refused to say anything, unless it was to scold Zhou Xing and other interrogators.  From the time Wei Xuantong was arrested and imprisoned last night until it was nightfall on the second day, Zhou Xing had not rested.  A sense of excitement supported him in doing things, but after all, he was no longer a young man, and he couldn't resist after not sleeping for too long.  I wanted to take a nap after dinner so that I could regain my energy before interrogating Wei Xuantong.  But as soon as he entered the trance state, he was awakened by something.  Can't help but get angry.  This is the prison of Dali Temple. Someone dares to make such a big noise at night. Do you want to get slapped?  He immediately stood up and shouted angrily: "Who is making a noise outside and wants to lose his head?! Come here!" After scolding, he also wanted to call someone in to ask what was going on.  .  "I really don't have any brains!" As a teasing voice sounded, a person walked in.  As soon as he saw this man's appearance clearly, Zhou Xing felt an unspeakable panic in his heart. He immediately stopped his arrogance and replaced it with a respectful expression. He hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "I have seen Mr. Chen.  I don¡¯t know that Chen Xianggong came to the Dali Temple Prison in the middle of the night. Please forgive me for not being able to welcome you from afar!" Of course it was Chen Yi who ran into the Dali Temple Prison unceremoniously. He also ignored Zhou Xing¡¯s salute, and the two of them  He walked to the place where Zhou Xing was sitting just now, and after sitting down, he said: "Zhou Shaoqing, please forgive me!" Seeing Chen Yi's behavior of ignoring his existence, Zhou Xing's heart trembled.  "The person who came is not good!" This was what he was thinking at this time. He was worried and thinking about the purpose of Chen Yi's visit today.  In fact, Zhou Xing knew without guessing that Chen Yi came here uninvited and at night. The purpose must be because of Wei Xuantong.  Wei Xuantong is Chen Yi's confidant. Zhou Xing knows this very clearly, but he can't figure out what Chen Yi wants to do by coming here so abruptly today?  Could it be that Chen Yi asked Wu Zetian for an order to come and release Wei Xuantong, or what?  But I thought that I was congratulating myselfAfter Minzhi's order to interrogate Wei Xuantong, and Helan Minzhi's order from Wu Zetian, Zhou Xing felt a little less uneasy, and he accompanied him and asked carefully: "I wonder what happened when Mr. Chen came to visit at night?"  Are you asking your subordinates to do this? " "I want to take Prime Minister Wei out of here!" Chen Yi said casually as he looked at the document Zhou Xing put on the table that recorded the interrogation of Wei Xuantong.  "What?" Zhou Xing was startled, and his words became a little stuttered, "Ms. Chen, you want to take Wei  Mr. Chen, please show me the order from the Queen Mother, otherwise" "I am not following anyone's orders. I just want to ask Zhou Shaoqing, I am here to take someone, will you give it or not?" Chen Yi seemed to be calm.  The shocking words almost scared Zhou Xinghun out of his wits, and he was speechless: "Chen Mr. Chen, Mr. Wei Wei Xuantong is a repeat offender, you can't take him away, otherwise Mr. Wu Oh, the Queen Mother  The empress will punish the official and even kill him. You can't take Wei Xuantong out of here!" Zhou Xing wanted to cry a little. He knew that at least under the current circumstances, there were a few people in the court who could not be messed with. One  It's He Lan Minzhi, and the other one is Chen Yi.  Of course Wu Zetian is one of them, and the people who cannot be offended are those who are especially favored by Wu Zetian. If they are not favored by Wu Zetian, then he will not be afraid of offending them if he obeys Wu Zetian's will.  "If you don't agree, do you believe I will kill you right now?" Chen Yi still spoke in his careless tone, but he didn't even look at Zhou Xing, who was shaking into a sieve.  "Ah?!" Zhou Xing was frightened and fell to the ground. How could this happen?  ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????Is Chen Yi here to arrest someone, or is he here to rob someone from prison?  Does he want to rebel?  Chen Yi closed the interrogation record in his hand with a snap. When Zhou Xing was startled again, he picked up the interrogation record and walked out, "Zhou Shaoqing, I have explained my intention to you, and you agree to let it go."  He is here, take him away now, and I will report this to the Queen Mother in person tomorrow morning!" He stopped again and scolded in a joking tone: "I said Zhou Shaoqing, why are you so confused?  How can you dare to interrogate the prime minister without the orders of Zhongshu and the subordinates? The Queen Mother¡¯s decree is not legal without the orders of the Zhongshu and the subordinates! Not to mention that it is only based on the orders of Wu Minzhi and not the Queen Mother.  Purpose, do you know that this is the crime of treason? If you want to be beheaded, just wait for the officials at the Yushitai to impeach you and then punish you!" "Ah? !" Zhou Xing was immediately struck by Chen Yi's words.  The words frightened him to death.  What Chen Yi said was indeed correct. He and He Lan Minzhi went to the Wei Mansion to fetch people. Even though he did not see the Queen Mother's order, and did not receive Wu Zetian's personal orders, everything was done according to He Lan Minzhi's orders. He had always  It is believed that Helan Minzhi acted on Wu Zetian's orders.  Now what Chen Yi said is true. If the matter gets bigger and He Lan Minzhi turns his face and refuses to recognize anyone, and Wu Zetian refuses to admit it for some reason, then any crime will fall on him.  To capture an important official in the court, giving him a hundred heads would not be enough.  Just as he was about to defend himself, Chen Yi had already left the room. Hearing the continuous noise coming from outside, and He Lan Minzhi's order to bring Wei Xuantong out, Zhou Xing got the courage from nowhere and stumbled out.  After leaving the house, he wanted to argue with Chen Yi, and even tried to find a way to prevent Chen Yi from mentioning people.  But as soon as he rushed out of the house, he was dumbfounded. The prison was full of sergeants, and they looked murderous. All the jailers in Dali Temple were driven aside, and Wei Xuantong had been helped out of the prison.  Zhou Xing¡¯s courage that he had just mustered up was gone in an instant. He had completely figured out what was going on.  This is Chen Yi's banditry. He brought so many sergeants to pick someone up in the middle of the night, with no intention of discussing it with him. Regardless of whether he agreed or not, Wei Xuantong will definitely be taken away. This is prison robbery and rebellion! Chen Yi's  The entourage saw Zhou Xing rushing out of the house and standing there stupidly. Immediately, two people came over, holding knives that flashed with fiery red torches and forced him over.  Zhou Xing instinctively stepped back. The feeling of approaching death suddenly came over him. His feet kept shaking and he was sweating like rain.  At this time, he already knew that the matter was far from as simple as he thought. If Chen Yi dared to do it so blatantly, there must be other follow-up means. If he did not cooperate today, his life would not be lost at this time. How could he still dare?  What to say, let alone stop him, he just stood with his hands down, not even daring to wipe the sweat from his forehead.  Seeing that Zhou Xing was quite sensible, Chen Yi ignored him and signaled his men to take Wei Xuantong out of the Dali Temple prison. After a group of people embraced Wei Xuantong out of the prison, he walked up to the trembling Zhou Xing and said with a bit of fierceness  He said in a tone of voice: "Zhou Shaoqing, you are too courageous. You dare to arrest Zhengshitang secretly?"Prime Minister, I have listed so many crimes for him. I know who you want to work for in order to seek promotion. I will state the detailed reasons for the matter at the court meeting and let the ministers discuss what to do.  Deal with the Dali Temple official who is the most daring since the founding of our dynasty and dared to arrest the prime minister secretly!" After saying that, he ignored Zhou Xing and walked away! (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
