Bright Spring

However, the light gray robes of the bound young man turned darker, and a puddle of water appeared on the brick floor.

The four people in the room looked at each other!I also saw that young man with delicate features, thin skin and tender flesh, he looked like a person who lived a comfortable life, not a villain who did sinister things at all!

For a moment, Gao Xianning couldn't help muttering in his heart: Didn't he arrest the wrong person?

Everyone was silent for a moment, and Zhang Sheng said in a voice: "The last general asked Chen Bazong (the general in charge of arresting people), and saw this person worshiping in front of Wang's grave with his own eyes, and put a lot of things."

The young man finally opened his mouth and said tremblingly: "What Wang? He is my younger brother, and his surname is Li."

After hearing this, Gao Xianning felt a little lost in his heart.Yao Fang was about to speak, but Gao Xianning waved her hand to stop Yao Fang.Gao Xianning asked: "Then what's your name and where do you live?"

The young man was silent for a while before he opened his mouth and said, "My name is Xiao Wencai, a native of Jiangxi Juren, currently living in the capital, waiting for the envoy from the Holy One."

Gao Xianning said: "We are members of the Jinyiwei, you can't lie and deceive the generals of the personal guards, that is a serious crime! Do you know what the Jinyiwei means?"

The man who called himself Xiao Wencai said: "I have a reputation, I can find it."

The room fell silent again, and the spring night seemed very quiet.

Chapter 6 Fifteen

Night had already fallen, but at this time, the old mansion of the King of Han, and even the entire capital, was not dark; lights were lit everywhere in the city.This mansion of the King of Han in the capital is very deep, and the mansion is very quiet at the moment.

Gao Xianning sorted out his thoughts a little bit.

Xiao Wencai, the kidnapped young man in front of him, may have confessed his name and merit; otherwise, he would not need to claim to be a Juren if he lied.In the eyes of the officials in the capital, a person who raises a man is considered a bird, and he can't scare people at all; on the contrary, it is very easy to verify his identity if he has a reputation.

If Xiao Wen just wanted to lie, why would he tell a lie that can be easily verified?

And Xiao Wencai said that the person he worshiped was Li, his younger brother.This sentence may be a lie!

Commander Zhang Sheng of Jin Yiwei had confirmed with his subordinates that the tomb was Wang's, and there was no mistake!So Xiao Wencai meant that he worshiped the wrong grave?If someone can recognize the wrong grave, why bother to worship; what's more, it's not the first time that Wang's grave has been worshiped by others.

Gao Xianning thought of this, and suddenly said angrily: "You'd better do it honestly! If it falls into the hands of Jin Yiwei, sophistry and stubbornness won't help."

Xiao Wencai said with a bitter face: "I have no sophistry. If you don't believe me, you can check the list of candidates in Jiangxi."

When Gao Xianning heard that he was only talking about fame, he immediately let out a cold "hum".

At this moment, Yao Fang frowned and said, "I think this person looks very familiar... I must have seen him somewhere!"

Xiao Wencai's face twitched slightly, and he immediately avoided it slightly.

"Oh?" Gao Xianning saw the expressions of the two of them.There were a few lanterns in the wing room, and the light was very good; Gao Xianning could clearly see every move of the people present.

Yao Fang sucked in a breath through his teeth, and said, "I've seen this person before! I'm good at recognizing faces. As long as I've met him once, I'll have a certain impression. It's just that I can't remember where I saw him."

Gao Xianning pondered for a while.At the beginning, he always thought about people related to "Magong". At this moment, he suddenly realized: since everyone has made a breakthrough, it is on the side of Wang's grave, he should try to start from "Wang" first. !

Therefore, Gao Xianning suddenly realized a detail: Wang Gen, Wang's late father, was also born in Jiangxi!

"Where are you from Jiangxi?" Gao Xianning asked calmly.

Xiao Wencai was silent for a while, then whispered: "Ji'an Mansion."

Gao Xianning immediately asked again: "Is your home in Jishui County, Ji'an Prefecture?"

When Xiao Wencai heard Gao Xianning say the place name (the birthplace of Wang Gen, an official of the Jianwen Dynasty Imperial Academy), his face became very ugly, and he didn't say a word for a long time.

Gao Xianning asked coldly: "Are you recruiting now?"

Xiao Wencai's face turned red and white for a while, and he didn't make a sound for a long time.

Gao Xianning turned to Zhang Sheng and said, "Use torture. Let the brothers come in with the things and go through it first."

Xiao Wencai pleaded: "Your Excellency, you misunderstood! I am a man of fame, you can't abuse lynching like this!"

Gao Xianning said: "To be honest, I am the Minister of Dali Temple, and I am investigating the imperial case. Let alone you, even if you are a relative of the emperor, at this point, I will still use torture! You have to think about it, now If you don’t recruit, you will use torture with your mouth shut for a while; when you want to recruit, you have to let the punishment go through from beginning to end, and it’s too late to regret it!”

After waiting for a while, Xiao Wencai still only said that he was wronged.Gao Xianning asked Yao Fang and Du Erlang to go out together, and then asked the brothers of the Beisi of the Shouyu Mansion (Jin Yiwei is famous, Gao Xianning always said that he was a member of Jin Yiwei) to go in and torture him.

There was a tragic muffled|roar and "woo hoo" crying soon.Gao Xianning and the other three who were standing under the eaves did not speak at this time.Gao Xianning was thinking hard about the joints; and Yao Fang also bowed his head in deep thought, as if he was still remembering where he met Xiao Wencai.Yao Fang seems to be a very persistent person.

After a long time, Gao Xianning returned to the house when the torturers from Beisi came out.

Xiao Wencai was still crying in pain. His head was covered with water, and he couldn't tell whether it was sweat, tears, or the cold water that had been splashed on him.It seems that he fainted once just now, and the "prisoner" is not allowed to faint during torture, he must be woken up with cold water and continue to torture!There is also a pool of water on the ground, I don't know what kind of water it is.

Gao Xianning went up and pulled out the cloth ball from Xiao Wencai's mouth. Seeing him, he immediately burst into tears and struggled on the chair for a while.

Gao Xianning glanced at the blood dripping slowly from Xiao Wencai's nails on the ground, and said: "It was just the lightest punishment, if you don't do it once, the torture will continue to increase. Jin Yiwei's cruel punishment can be called You can't live, you can't die! How long can you endure as a scholar? And we already know your name and place of origin, so we can interrogate your family members. If you don't recruit, we can find out the truth!"

Xiao Wencai sucked in air through his teeth, crying in pain.

Gao Xianning asked again: "Are you recruiting?"

After waiting for a while, Gao Xianning turned to Zhang Sheng and said, "Commander Zhang..."

"I'm recruiting, I'm recruiting!" Xiao Wencai cried suddenly.

Gao Xianning said: "If you dare to tell even half a lie, the torture just now will be repeated ten times!" As he spoke, he walked behind the table next to him and picked up the brush that he had prepared from the inkstone .

"Who is Ma Gong?" Gao Xianning asked directly.

Xiao Wencai was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I don't know. I really don't know who your lord is talking about."

Gao Xianning's writing pen paused slightly, looked up at Xiao Wencai, and asked again: "Who is the Wang family buried in the mass grave?"

Xiao Wencai said: "She and I are childhood sweethearts. Although they haven't married, they have made a private decision for life."

"What?!" Yao Fang's eyes widened immediately.

Gao Xianning turned his head and glared at Yao Fang, and then asked Xiao Wencai: "So, your Xiao family and Wang Gen's family are not only from the same hometown, but also almost married? Do you know that the Wang family always has poison on them?"

Xiao Wencai nodded and said: "Wang Xiuzhuan's (Wang Gen) family and my Xiao family are family friends. Wang Xiuzhuan died for the country as Emperor Jianwen, and was later impeached by Yushi Chen Ying. Ji Gang ordered the Wang family to be executed! All were killed, and Wang Xiuzhuan's daughter, Mrs. Wang, was sent to the Jiaofang Division. At that time, our family was terrified and wanted to cut off all contact with the Wang family. But...

But the uncle said that sooner or later the court will find out about the Xiao family!At that time, Jin Yiwei was ordering to copy melons and vines against the old people of Jianwen Dynasty. The situation was very dire!So my uncle told me to use my relationship with Mrs. Wang to contact Mrs. Wang.Under the instruction of my uncle, I also called Mrs. Wang, and managed to get close to Yao Fang from Fusi of Jinyiwei North Town..."

When Xiao Wencai said this, he carefully glanced at Yao Fang.Yao Fang's expression was very complicated, but now he didn't become angry from embarrassment, but just stood there in a daze.

Seeing that Xiao Wencai closed his mouth, Gao Xianning asked, "Why are you near Yao Fang?"

Xiao Wencai said: "Ji Gang, the commander of Jinyiwei at that time, was very favored; the family raids and murders were all done by Jinyiwei. We can put someone next to Yao Fang, so we can know early whether Jinyiwei will find Xiao's family. On the head, Zhulian Xiao's family.

Yao Fang is not only a member of the Jinyiwei, but as early as the Jianwen Dynasty, he was the person placed by Yao Guangxiao, the confidant of the Yan Palace, so he must know a lot of things!

My uncle told me these things.The uncle said that Yao Fang had assisted Li Jinglong to open the gate at the outer Jinchuan gate, so he should be a spy of the Yan Palace; since then, the uncle went to check Yao Fang's whereabouts and found Yao Fang going in and out of Qingshou Temple.Therefore, we guess that Yao Fang of Jinyiwei is also a member of Yao Guangxiao.
