What kind of bad thoughts can Mr. Xiao have?

Chapter 134 Chapter 130
"Peel off his clothes, and then peel off his skin piece by piece..."

"The crime of a strangled dog is beyond description, Ling Chi will be too cheap for him tomorrow..."

"Pull out the nails and tongue, whether he pleads guilty or not..."

"Pinch off his legs! Now there is no His Majesty to protect you, why doesn't this dog bark, keep beating!"

There are endless debates in the courtroom, the bad debts that have not been settled for many years, the whitewashed political achievements of Taiping, and the lives of others, all of whom lightly grabbed the hands of the criminal officers and added to Xiao Qi's crimes.

It's ridiculous that Xuan Yusi's reputation is notorious. During the impeachment by the courtiers, he was severely scolded as a black man who only weaves and disregards the law, but there are so many evils that even Xuan Yusi has not discovered.

Xiao Qi, who fell on the ground, tried to take back the ten fingers that had been tortured, and the pain was so painful that at least six of them were broken.The pain caused the muscles on his body to tense, implicating layers of bloodstains and bruises, which more clearly delineated the boundaries of this body than flesh and blood.

The bleeding part is cold, the swollen part is hot, and the broken bone stubble hidden in the flesh is hot.Xiao Qi closed his sore eyes, turned to the high hall to argue lifelessly, and regarded him as the faces of Daozu.

He should be killed, they... shouldn't be killed?

Those who denounced him angrily, whose sin they were chanting.Who will the recorder, who is writing hard to write, present these crimes for review before entering the file?He knew that this was not something he should care about, but there was still a layer of sadness overflowing his eyes.

He's gone, in such a state, who else can she rely on?

"Just do as I say, pick him up!"

The guard had to be ordered to step forward, Xiao Qi opened his mouth, but swallowed his weakness forcefully, unwilling to even say a word to beg for mercy.

Take it, take it all.Use his life to fill the holes in the beams, and use his flesh and blood to vent their anger.Unbalanced laws need to be reset with human life, and he is the balance weight.

He is not innocent, so don't be ridiculed and humiliated for his hypocritical incompleteness.

"...wait a minute."

As the three divisions interrogated, Shangguan Luming was naturally also watching.It's just that Xiao Qi was sent to the Dali Temple for the presiding judge. As a close minister of the empress, it was difficult for him to speak.

But... Anyway, this is not Xuan Yusi, and there is no need for him to spit out someone by torture to extract a confession.The crime has been convicted, why let him suffer such a great humiliation.

"The eunuch is pickled, it's unlucky to poop and urinate, let him cover it, so we don't need to dirty our eyes."

Hearing Shangguan Luming's reminder, the man who made the order wrinkled his nose in disgust, as if he had smelled the stench that did not exist in Xiao Qi's body, he waved his sleeves to let the guards give up.

"Master Shangguan reminded you guys, follow what Master Wu just said, and continue to use torture."

Hearing that those people gave up the idea of ​​stripping his clothes so easily, Xiao Qi, who was about to lose consciousness, laughed mockingly.

The dignity he cares about the most, actually has to be preserved by other people's contempt and disgust, which can be regarded as the same goal. Those who love others and those who hate him can't bear to see his humble body.

Do you want to break your leg, cut your tongue, or pull out your nails?What else, let's come together, from the moment he stepped out of the palace gate, he could take any pain.

Xiao Qi even had the leisure to compare Xuan Yusi's punishment. Compared with the boring and bloody scene in Dali Temple, he would not make people so ugly.

"Ah! Uh..."

The guard struck viciously, breaking Xiao Qi's right leg bone with one blow, and one leg was twisted and bent into three pieces. This scene and Xiao Qi's painful cries made people's teeth sour.

Xiao Qi's unbroken fingers dug into the flesh, forcing himself not to struggle and move in the great pain, but it hurt even more.

His whole body was shaking like sifting chaff, cold sweat mixed with dried blood stains stuck to the ground, he could no longer hear the voices in the hall, and he didn't know when they had enjoyed enough of his miserable state and let the next blow fall.

"The decree has arrived!"

"Xiao Qi, the former envoy of the Xuan Yu Division, was lawless, treacherous and cruel. He was listened to by the emperor at the top, and disobedient at the bottom. He has been dismissed from his position and handed over to the third division for public trial..."

"I am deeply ashamed of the virtue of the late emperor, and I regret the remonstrance of my sincere ministers. I ordered the third division to reorganize the Xuanyu division. All the people in the inner palace will be removed from their official posts. The vacancy will be examined by the Ministry of officials. The third division can temporarily take over the Xuanyu division. Important position, waiting to be filled..."

"Lord Lu, please accept the order on behalf of the third division."

After Ming Feng announced the decree, Lu Zhong raised his hand to take it.

"Sir, obey the order."

Looking at the hall from the head of the person kneeling in front of him, Ming Feng hardly dared to recognize that it was Xiao Qi.Thinking of Wei Huai'en's entrustment, he suppressed his grief and anger, and said to Lu Zhong and others with a smile:

"Our family speaks lightly and dare not disturb your lords to act according to the order. It's just that this man has been tortured in the imperial prison for many days, and he has confessed his crimes. His Majesty is waiting for you to hand over the crimes, so that he can tell the world. .”

How many days?How many days?
Before they exchanged glances behind their backs, Lu Zhong stood up and summoned the recorder.

"Eunuch Ming came by coincidence. The criminal has already been charged. Although there is no time to re-write and seal it, but the matter is urgent. Please ask Your Majesty to approve the punishment of the criminal after the trial."

"It's easy to say, easy to say, thank you for your hard work. Mr. Lu, our family will leave first."

Although Ming Feng said to go, he still didn't move.

Seeing this, Lu Zhong asked the guards to take Xiao Qi to prison in front of him. After Ming Feng saw the "painting and arrest", Xiao Qi only had to wait in prison for execution tomorrow.

"I'll take Eunuch Ming out."

"Lord Lu, please stay, our family will take our leave now."

"Walk slowly."

"Why did your lord submit the draft charges? Isn't the trial not over yet?"

"Does Your Majesty really think of us as fools? We have only been here for less than a day, when did we become tortured for many days in the Imperial Prison?"

"That Ming Feng is Xiao Qi's apprentice, but at this time, do we still want to sell his face?"

"Master Lu, what do you think?"

Lu Zhong turned his attention to Shangguan Luming outside the crowd, obviously waiting for him to answer these questions.

Shangguan Luming sighed in his heart Ruan Yan's words became a prophecy, even if the old fox Lu Zhong clearly sold His Highness, he would not tell these people what he really thought.

"Everyone, Xiao Qi has indeed been missing for many days. If we insist on interrogating, how can we convince the government and the public in one day? At that time, not only His Majesty, but also you and my government will be criticized and forced to kill Xiao Qi. The rebels will definitely seize this Make a fuss about it.

The Imperial Prison is directly under His Majesty, His Majesty is righteous, he has long seen Xiao Qi's wolfish ambitions, and will question him only after the thorough investigation is over.Today Xiao Qi was sent to Dali Temple, just to check for omissions and make up for vacancies, so as to bring justice to justice.So, do you have any objections? "

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, thinking that there was something in Ming Feng's words, and Shangguan Lu Ming's suddenly tough attitude, the answer was self-evident whether he wanted to hold on to Xiao Qi.

What's more, Xuanyu's important position is vacant, His Majesty is obviously showing favor to them, and giving their nephew a good place to get married.Such a large piece of cake was finally handed back to them from the eunuch, and tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.

Seeing that everyone had different expressions and their thoughts were about to move, Lu Zhong made the final decision:
"Let's leave. Since Your Majesty has handed over Xuanyu Division to the Third Division for temporary reorganization, you should decide on a candidate as soon as possible and inform the Ministry of Officials."

Ci'an Temple.

Wei Huaien lay on the tidy bed with his clothes on, his eyes staring blankly.

The hall was empty.The palace people outside the palace knelt on the ground, waiting for the emperor to send him down.

When she always felt uneasy in her heart and came to Ci'an Hall but was in vain, she understood everything.

Xiao Qi cut her dragon robe last night, and also tore through the last layer of her skin, so that she could no longer be twisted by power into another Emperor Yonghe, and felt that it was difficult to breathe every minute and every second.

Isn't he afraid of death?
Isn't he afraid that there is no way to die under her hands?
He is also a person who has served in Xuanyu Division for many years, isn't he afraid that the same method will be used on himself?
Wei Huai'en was afraid.

I am afraid that her retribution will fall on Xiao Qi.The one who is really guilty should be her, not him.

But she is the emperor, she can't be wrong.

Now she is indeed not wrong, the only person who wants to fight against the court and keep her reputation after ruining her life, chose to fulfill her.

"Your Majesty, the slave is back."

Ming Feng was the only one who dared to disturb Wei Huai'en at this time.

"What crime were they convicted of?"

Wei Huaien was still lying motionless.

"The crime of Ling Chi will be executed at noon tomorrow."

The hall was silent.It was already dark, but half of the candles were not lit.

It made Wei Huai'en think of the night when his mother passed away, the hall was also so dead.

What else could she do?

Death is inevitable, since he has walked out of her shelter, what else can she do?

Ling Chi sounded very painful, but it was because Xiao Qi had mentioned to her that the person in charge of the torture was a veteran, and he died after being tortured for a long time by the huge greed who had previously embezzled the army's salary and communicated with foreign enemies.

No forgiveness, no favoritism.

What about him?How long can it last?
He deserves it.

Wei Huai'en hugged the cold quilt and said to himself.

It's easy to make yourself feel better.It's because he shouldn't be greedy for power, shouldn't be tyrannical, and shouldn't fabricate charges without telling her, and shouldn't plant and frame her.

His sins are too many, she is the emperor, she can only kill him.

Don't feel guilty, don't be sad.Wei Huai'en, you are the lord of the country, you are dead empress.There are so many pairs of eyes looking at you under the sun, have you forgotten that you have made a vow to return the heavens and the earth?
You should only be sorry, only need to be sorry.It's a pity that such a good slave has a heart that he shouldn't have.

That's all, that's all!

"Why haven't you gone out yet?"

She suddenly remembered that Ming Feng was still standing in the hall, and his voice was still driving him out hollowly.

But he heard a pair of knees and forehead hit the ground, and the darkness shook.

Ah, it seems that there is another person who is willing to say a word for Xiao Qi.

"Just one more favor, and you will go to the execution ground with your master."

But it's useless, she can't save him anymore.

"Your Majesty, please go see Master, Mingfeng please, please..."

Wei Huai'en heard his forehead hit the floor tiles, and the dull voice was repeated again and again.Do you want to use this bitter trick to make her soft-hearted?The people taught by Xiao Qi are too stupid.

I think back when Xiao Qi was the same age as him, his methods were already good...

Pity, only pity, nothing else.

Seeing that Wei Huai'en didn't respond, Ming Feng tearfully risked his life and begged:
"Master, just take a look at Master, just one glance, Master has been tortured, and he may not even survive tonight, don't you even want to see him for the last time!"

There was a rustling sound on the bed, and Ming Feng was excitedly waiting for Wei Huai'en's answer.

"Take your normal clothes and come over, we're going out of the palace."

Bet right.

Ming Feng hurriedly got up and ran out of the hall, and immediately brought a set of dark robes.

Not long after, Wei Huai'en took Mingfeng and a group of hidden guards out of the palace and went straight to the prison of Dali Temple.

Lu Chong must have guessed that there will be guests tonight, so he sat alone in the hall and read the official documents, only casually nodding to Wei Huai'en.

"The guard is not here, the nobleman is free."

The chain fell, and the prison door opened.Wei Huai'en walked into the cramped cell alone, and looked at him, who was curled up on the dirty straw mat and could hardly hear his breathing, by the gleam of light from the transom window.

There are other prisoners in the cell, so it is not easy to light a lamp.She could only get closer, and then get closer, using the strong smell of blood on his body to overwhelm the sour smell from the dungeon, and bit by bit the sticky hair on his face, revealing his eyebrows and eyes.

"Azzie?"

It's only a day, how did he become like this?

One of Wei Huai'en's sleeves never left the corner of his eyes, and tears couldn't stop gushing out.

He didn't pass out, but when he heard the call and opened his eyes, he thought he was still in a dream.

"Wynn, have you come to see me?"

He dreamed that Wynn was coming and said that the pain would be gone soon.

"Aqi, it's me, you..."

"hiss!"

Wei Huai'en looked at his limp fingers in horror, and dared not touch his hand again.And Xiao Qi also realized from the pain that this was not a dream, and buried his head in his arms, not wanting to be seen by her.

"Why did you come! You shouldn't have come! Get out! Go back to your place! Go, go!"

The humiliation that he managed to escape during the day was rewarded a thousand times and ten thousand times in his heart at this moment. He would rather she be indifferent and unfeeling, than be remembered by her as such a lingering life.

Why destroy everything he arranged, why destroy the ending he chose for himself?He gave her such a good night, even smiling when he watched her leave, but it was all ruined by her soft heart, everything was ruined!

"...Aqi, what are you talking about?"

Wei Huai'en timidly wanted to touch the top of his hair again, he couldn't believe that he would drive her away, and even speak ill at each other?
"Heh...hehe..."

Xiao Qi shrunk further, insisting on keeping a distance from her, and moved to a darker corner.Leaving the heated straw mat, the cold and dirty rough ground caused his wounds to rupture and bleed again.

"Isn't this the ending you want? Let me die for you willingly, and pick you up clean? What are you still pretending to do? Is there anything I haven't been used by you, huh?
Ha, you are not really attracted to me, are you?Hahaha... How funny, even I don't believe it, you still want to act?Go away, go away, I never want to see you again! "

Let's go, get out of here immediately.Forgot what he looked like, and forgot that there was such a person who lived beside her.

"No, I didn't lie to you, Aqi, don't hide from me, I know you said these words on purpose..."

Wei Huai'en didn't believe it was his sincere words, and wanted to get closer, but Xiao Qi finally raised his head from the crook of his arms, revealing an eye full of tears, shining brightly in a dark corner.

"do not come……"
