The Song Dynasty has been deliberate for 16 years, only to know that it is the Water Margin

Chapter 79 Confession
Zhao Tun nodded upon hearing the words: "Langzhong, right? Catch him and go to jail."

Niu Abao was so excited that his body trembled a little, he was a doctor of the Ministry of Punishment, wearing a scarlet suit and hanging a fish bag, he was a little scared when he thought about it, but with such alternation of water and fire, his heart became excited.

After a while, there were bursts of shouting and cursing in the courtyard, which was obviously different from the crying and shouting of Yuanwailang and others before, but what happened, the swords and guns were set up, and they rushed to the prison?
After a long while, the jailer came over with the jailer and showed the few simple torture tools that he had made. Zhao Tong went to check, and the other guards also peeked at them.

Zhao Tong pointed to something that looked like a wooden horse and said, "This one, the horns on it are too straight, so I'll replace it with a curved one. It can be washed with strong wine and can be disinfected."

He pointed to a stool and said: "The wooden board behind is too smooth, there are some iron nails on it, it doesn't need to be too long, as long as it goes into the meat and it doesn't kill people, and it can be disinfected by washing it with boiled salt water. .”

Yuan Wai turned green when he watched from the sidelines. To be able to act as a spy in Tokyo, he must have a lot of knowledge. How can he survive the severe punishment if he shows his feet?
But what he heard before he came here was not the case. The Song Dynasty is elegant, although it will be punished, but in the end it is mainly bribed. It is about the first day I will not recruit the whip, and the second day I will not recruit. , On the third day, I send a beautiful woman to the order that I recruit, why is it not like this now?

Zhao Tuo commented on the torture equipment, not to mention the outsiders, even the prison guards were fighting with each other, and Zhao Tuo then ordered: "Let's use it first. If you really don't want to use it, I will think about it carefully. This king is gentle and can't bear to see so much cruelty, thinking about such things will pollute the heart of Bodhi's mirror."

The staff member almost rolled his eyes and passed out when he heard the words, do you dare to say that your family is the heart of Bodhi's mirror?You are a fake, you, you are a mirror of Bodhi!

Zhao Tang stared at him, said to torture, and walked out of the room thinking about something in his heart.

Although the letter was written in a faltering way, it can completely confirm the identity of this member of the Western Xia spy, and this member's status is not low, and he is a figure in the Xixia Beifengtang.

Xixia Beifengtang is the place where the Xixia Kingdom's Spy Department trains elite spies. This person was born in Beifengtang and is not an ordinary spy. He should be a leader in this Tokyo city and must know the news of other spies.

Xixia has been weak in the past few years, so all kinds of spies are pervasive, but there is no specific regulation for this kind of thing, whether it is the court or the military. Ji Yisi.

Zhao Tang thought as he walked, this kind of thing is very complicated, and it also involves the criminal department, and he doesn't know if there is any big fish in the criminal department, he has no time to pay attention to it right now, the more the dog's serial activities are investigated, the more chaotic it is, and the delay will be too long More, always see if it is beneficial to hand it over.

"My lord, the Ministry of Criminal Justice is here again." Niu Abao ran over sweating profusely.

"Didn't I tell you to arrest him!" Zhao Tong said.

Niu Abao wiped his forehead and said: "Subordinate, subordinate... This time the person who came is a servant, and the prince is not present, so this subordinate really dare not arrest him."

Zhao Tang glanced at him, thinking in his heart that after all these imperial guards have their own concerns, if this Niu Abao is a famous bandit, let alone a servant, even if he is a chancellor, he dares to take it like a pig and sheep, he is the emperor Also dare to pull off the horse.

He said, "Follow me to see."

Niu Abao was a little frustrated, he felt that this matter was not handled well by himself, he had thought a lot before, but he finally didn't dare to do it, the soldiers below might not be afraid of what would happen to these officials and lords, but he was both right and left, once something happened Forget it, I can still find him if I look for him, but now I start to regret it again, feeling that my family is a bit overwhelmed, there is no thing in the world that can please others without offending others.

When he arrived at the wooden gate, Zhao Tong looked out, but it was Wu Qunshu, the right servant of the Ministry of Punishment, followed by many people, including some servants of the Ministry of Punishment.

Zhao Tong glanced at the soldier who brought him when he came, and said, "Open the fence and line up."

The Gyeonggi Forbidden Army originally had little combat power, but after practicing for a long time, even if it was just for running, the energy and blood in their bodies were stimulated. These days, they clench their fists from time to time, and the muscles in their legs are stretched like iron, and they feel that they have no strength. spread.

At this moment, after listening to the order, he opened the fence, "hula" to prevent the pack of wolves from leaving the nest, and immediately surrounded the people from the Ministry of punishment.

Wu Qunshu didn't panic when he saw this, he looked like a white-faced scholar, he was usually unsmiling, and as an official in this position, even if he really gave people the impression of being irritable and irritable, it was mostly fake.

He saluted Zhao Tun from a distance: "Your official Wu Qunshu has seen King Qi."

Zhao Tong nodded, three groups of criminals in a row disappeared from the military supervisor, if Wu Qunshu didn't know that he was here, it would be a strange thing.

"My lord, before I get off the job, I can't go to the Guards Department to see the lord, so I brought people here, and I want to take the liberty of asking how the officials of the Ministry of Punishment are doing. If they really contradict the lord, then the next official will leave immediately. After the lord vents his anger, The next officials will deal with them!" Wu Qunshu said respectfully.

Zhao Tang squinted at him, and couldn't fault his words, he said, "Who asked you to come?"

Wu Qunshu was taken aback when he heard the words. He is the left servant of the Ministry of Punishment. From a logical point of view, many matters of the Ministry of Punishment can be decided without anyone's orders.

"My lord, this matter was reported to the court, and the subordinate officials found out after a brief inquiry, and no one assigned it to them." Wu Qunshu was neither humble nor overbearing.

"No one will do it." Zhao Tun nodded, "Okay, get caught."

He turned around and left, Wu Qunshu frowned on the spot: "My lord, what did you do wrong, you want to be arrested in this military prison."

Zhao Tang paused slightly, turned around and said with a smile: "Wu Shilang, it's not easy to sit in this position today, isn't it? Childish and enlightened, ten years of cold windows, hanging beams piercingly, reading at night with lights on, calling Donghuamen, catching the golden list of son-in-law, all the way Ups and downs in the officialdom, is hard work a virtue?"

Wu Qunshu's heart sank when he heard the words, and he said: "The lower official came from a humble background, not as good as a poor family. He just studied hard and understood the principles of saints. He never thought about the blessing of being a farmer in the court and going to the Tianzitang in the evening. From then on, he worked hard and worked everywhere. As if walking on thin ice, for more than ten years, it has been like a day, thinking about my own past every day, calmly examining myself, if I offend the prince today, please show me, the next official must pick up the omissions and make up for the omissions, and be vigilant every day."

Zhao Tong shook his head, how could he pay attention to his long-winded speeches, and he couldn't reason with these people, because these people have studied the so-called "reasons" for hundreds of thousands of years, stepping in the "reasons" step by step, and never departing from "reasons" in every sentence. The word "reason".

He went straight, and before he reached the door, he saw the jailer running out to greet him and said: "My lord, that man has confessed."
