I am Li Shen and Li Shimin, the free kings of the Tang Dynasty

Li Shen took his people directly to Dongshan after coming out of the palace. As soon as he arrived at the Sharp Blade Brigade, a general came out to greet him.

This person's name is Li Tiejun, the deputy captain of the Sharp Blade Investigation Brigade. His original name was Li San, but after he joined the Sharp Blade, he felt it didn't sound good, so he asked Li Shen to give him a name, and Li Shen gave him the name Iron Army.

"Tie Jun, how is that man?" Li Shen asked as he walked

"Maybe you are going crazy. My lord, are you using magic? That person was still very arrogant on the first day.

Yesterday was yelling like crazy and banging on doors. Since today, I have been begging His Highness to let him go." Li Tiejun didn't understand, and he didn't torture him, so he just let him take it by himself.

"Haha, if you are curious, you can experience it for yourself. In the future, if a soldier makes a mistake and refuses to correct it, let him go to a small dark room for two days, not too long, otherwise he may really go crazy." Li Shen said with a smile.

This was a psychological test based on later experiments, although Li Shen didn't know the principle.

When they arrived at the cell where Wei Yuanzheng was being held, someone came forward to open the door, and someone went in first with a torch to light the oil lamp.

It lit up immediately inside, and when Li Shen walked over, he saw Wei Yuanzheng, with unkempt hair and ragged clothes, covering his eyes with his hands. My eyes felt a little uncomfortable after not seeing light for too long.

"Wei Yuanzheng, have you thought about it these days? Write down everything you know. Once you write it down, I will send you to the Ministry of Punishment. For Wang Wan's sake, you may escape." Li As soon as Shen waved his hand, someone came in with pens, ink, tables and chairs.

"Li Shen, you are so vicious. You should give up. I won't write. I think the Wei family and my wife are already looking for me everywhere.

I should have found you too, my wife will not let me die. I must go to see the Queen. If something happens to me, I'll see how you explain it to the Queen. "Wei Yuanzheng glared at Li Shen.

Li Shen was not surprised at all by his attitude. He knew that Wei Yuanzheng was still holding on to his illusions.

"Wei Yuanzheng, you are right. I just came out of the palace. At that time, Wei Renji, Wei Ting, and Wang Wan all went to the palace, and they insisted that I was the one who caught you.

But look, I'm still doing this well. I told them, I have never met you, so why should I arrest you?

You didn't offend me. Hahaha, they kept saying you did something wrong for a long time, but in the end they didn’t dare to say what you did wrong.

Wang Wan probably doesn't know what you did. Assassinating the prince is a serious crime. Soon the news will spread to all the nobles in the Tang Dynasty. When the time comes, I will see how your family will be able to establish itself in the future. You are so audacious. "

"Hahahahaha, so what, as long as you die. We can still be the same as before. More than half of the officials in the country are from our aristocratic family.

Li Shen, why do you target us everywhere? Do you think it’s our two families who are doing it this time? This is what all the noble families in the world do together.

It's just that it hasn't been done. How many times have you ruined our plans over the years? Why can't you just be a prince with peace of mind. "Wei Yuanzheng burst into laughter. He said a bit condescendingly.

"Become a prince? Have you given me a chance? Are you allowed to have fine clothes and fine food, while I can only eat chaffy vegetables? Your family has always been like this, clinging to the court to suck blood, always thinking that the wealth in the world belongs to you. of.

What's wrong with me wanting to enjoy life? I want a luxurious life and I need money. And if you want to stop me from making money and impeach me more than once, then we can only be in opposition.

But I think you are quite great, you are willing to sacrifice the lives of your family for the sake of the family. I really admire you." Li Shen said lightly.

"What do you mean? Humph, Lingze is the queen's niece. Even if I die, she will not die. And our children will not die either. Besides, I'm afraid I will just be sent to Lingnan. I will find someone in a few years. Just transfer him back when you get the chance." His words were arrogant, but they were true.

"Haha...haha..." Li Shen laughed louder than Wei Yuanzheng.

"Why are you laughing?" Wei Yuanzheng asked in confusion.

"I laughed at you for being too naive, or is this the reason why they asked you to carry out the execution? Are these what they told you? You are so sad, you have become a scapegoat. What a pity." Li Shen shook his head

"what do you want to say in the end"

"Do you think Wang Wan can compare to me, a prince?" Li Shen shouted sternly

"Who told you this? Even the emperor's niece will die if he kills the emperor's son, let alone the queen's niece.

And this is a necessary punishment to save the royal face. Not only will she die, but everyone in your family and three clans will also die. This is the game between the aristocratic family and the royal family.

They will protect your three clans, but the emperor must be killed. Who do you think will win in the end? "Li Shen squatted down and asked Wei Yuanzheng jokingly.

Then Li Shen stood up, walked to the chair, sat down, and continued

"After telling you that I'm not dead, do you think I will let you go? Have you been aloof for too long? You don't know how powerful a prince is.

I will kill you all, including all your descendants. Do you dare or not for a prince who has not yet reached the crown? "

Wei Yuanzheng trembled. He didn't expect Li Shen to say this to him.

Li Shen didn't want to waste time on him, so he stood up and said to Wei Yuanzheng

"The Queen asked me to spare your life, but it also depends on your performance. Write down everything you know. We will only touch you and Cui Dunli.

I also promise not to retaliate against you because my mother is a member of the Wei family. I'll give you half an hour. In fact, you and Cui Dunli will die whether you write or not.

The difference is that if you write it, you probably won't die. You need to think clearly whether you can bear the torture I'm going to have on you. It won't be a good two days. "After speaking, Li Shen turned around and went out.

He walked to the door and said again: "You should not be from Xiaoyao Gongfang. Let me remind you, Xiaoyao Gongfang are all ungrateful people, you should take care of yourself."

Wei Yuanzheng watched Li Shen go out and struggled in his heart. What Li Shen said was correct. He could see that if he didn't confess, Li Shen would definitely punish him.

He was just a scholar, and the mental torture he had suffered in the past two days had already brought him to the point of collapse. If physical torture was added to it, he would definitely not be able to hold on.

It seems that they were too arrogant and underestimated the social status of a prince. Regardless of whether the prince is favored or not, he is still a prince and represents the royal family. Assassinating the royal family was a challenge to imperial power.

How could he be let go just because he was a queen's niece? Just like Li Shen said, even the emperor's own niece must die, and it is also related to the struggle between imperial power and aristocratic families.

Wei Yuanzheng thought of the dozens of people in his family. He could see that Li Shen was a ruthless prince, otherwise he would not have dared to secretly arrest the governor. Even if the emperor pardons him, Li Shen will send people to assassinate his whole family.

"Hey~~" Wei Yuanzheng finally let out a long sigh, reached the table, picked up a pen and started writing a confession.
