Kick out the general as soon as you are reborn

Chapter 74 Gu Beichen and Gu Beiming are involved in the Spring Examination Fraud Case

Liu Yanyan watched her father walk out before she revealed a look of pain. She rubbed her dizzy head and sighed at Yuzhu.

Yuzhu hurriedly took it, rubbed her forehead and said, "Miss, what's wrong with you? How about I ask the doctor to come and take a look?"

Liu Yanyan smiled bitterly, "No, just rub my head and it won't hurt." You have to climb up to have the right to speak! Gu Beichen, this bastard, wants to destroy me. I don't know if I can send him in this time. I said with a bitter face, "Gu Beichen, how are you now?"

Yuzhu rubbed her forehead and said, "Miss, the Duke didn't say just now that Gu Beichen has been imprisoned. But since you didn't wear that dress, he will probably be released in a few days."

Liu Yanyan nodded silently, her eyes full of helplessness, the helplessness of a woman, "You step back, let me be quiet for a while."

Yuzhu and Yuzhen then retreated in fear and trepidation.

Liu Yanyan watched them leave before she stood up. Looking at the dim light outside, a forced smile appeared on her lips. “It’s okay, it will be fine.” I want to watch how they die.

The faint light fell on the hands, making the fingers almost transparent and dotted with starlight.

Tianlao

Gu Beichen huddled in the corner unwillingly, looking at the jailer outside, and said unwillingly, "Boss, send me something to eat."

A sturdy jailer came over with a knife in his hand and said viciously, "General Gu, this is related to a fraud case, and you are showing off to me in this prison. What's wrong with the knife in my hand? Is it because the knife in my hand is blunt?" After saying that, he knocked on the fence next to him with the knife.

Gu Beichen touched his rumbling stomach, searched his body for a long time, and finally found a few copper coins on the sole of his shoe. He handed them to the jailer and said, "Boss, give me something to eat."

The jailer looked at him with disdain, slapped him away and said, "What kind of person is he! He's a general, but he's not even as good as the servants next to him. It's shameful." After saying that, he turned around and left, completely ignoring Gu Beichen's ashen face.

Gu Beichen had a gloomy face, covered his rumbling stomach, sighed fiercely, punched the railing, gasped in pain and said, "How could it be? How could it be discovered? Didn't that bitch Liu Yanyan not wear it to the Imperial Examination Hall? How could someone check it out? It's really bad luck."

In the distance, the Regent Zhou Yanze was sitting in the torture room, looking coldly. He glanced over and saw several jailers trembling with fear and kneeling on the ground.

The thin and old jailer, Lao Xing, trembled and said, "Your Majesty, this scholar is too stubborn. He was beaten and covered in blood, but he still refused to tell who gave him the test questions."

Gu Beiming was covered in blood, and he was dying. "No, I really don't know! I don't know, I didn't, I didn't cheat, please investigate! The things I brought to the tribute court were all from the mansion, there was no cheating at all! Your Majesty, someone must have framed me."

The Regent chuckled and said, "Put him down and send him to the torture chamber next door."

Several jailers were so frightened that they dared not move. After hearing clearly, they untied Gu Beiming from the wooden frame and two of them pulled him to the dirty and messy cell next door.

When the Regent saw the people being kidnapped, he spoke, "Next, interrogate them one by one. We must catch the culprit of the fraud." After saying that, he closed his eyes and rested quietly.

Gu Beichen was dragged by the jailer. He shouted unwillingly, "Let me go, let me go, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please be more discerning! Your Majesty, this has nothing to do with me! Your Majesty."

The regent opened his closed eyes, a trace of impatience flashed across his eyes, and he said coldly, "It has nothing to do with you, tell me slowly."

After being tied up, Gu Beichen watched the jailer approaching with a red-hot iron, and shrank back, "Your Highness, the fraud case has nothing to do with me! I just wanted to frame Liu Yanyan, so I changed her clothes. The words on it are just a sour poem? The fraud case really has nothing to do with me."

A cold look flashed across the Regent's eyes, and he said calmly, "How do you prove that you just want to frame someone? There is nothing wrong with the county lady's clothes. You are really capable of dragging the county lady into this even after the divorce."

Gu Beichen's face was full of fear. He looked at the branding iron less than a foot in front of him, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat. "Your Highness, what I said is true. I just hate it. I hate it. Liu Yanyan plotted against me to divorce her, and after the divorce, she even got a job as a county lord. That's why I resorted to this desperate measure."

Regent Zhou Yanze sneered and said, "You are narrow-minded. The previous queen had already opened a women's academy, and the late emperor had already agreed to women entering the court. It is really infuriating that you framed County Princess Liu like this."

Gu Beichen was tense and said tentatively, "Your Majesty, can you ask him to put the iron away? I have said everything I should say. I really don't know anything about the fraud case! Your Majesty, I beg you, Your Majesty."

The Regent had a gloomy face and said calmly, "Well, compared to the fraud case, your case is indeed not worth mentioning. It is wrong to keep detaining you."

A flattering smile appeared on Gu Beichen's face, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your mercy."

The regent tapped his fingers and said calmly, "But you are an official appointed by the court. You broke the law knowingly. Your crime is aggravated. You can escape the death penalty, but you cannot escape the punishment of life. I will give you 50 strokes of the cane as a warning to others."

Gu Beichen's face was filled with fear, and he begged for mercy repeatedly, "Your Highness, Your Highness, I know I was wrong, please have mercy on me! Your Highness, I am also a warrior after all! Your Highness."

The regent said calmly, "Merits are merits, faults are faults, and merits and faults cannot offset each other."

Before he finished speaking, Gu Beichen was untied by two jailers, dragged to the torture room next door, and tied to the tiger bench. He struggled unwillingly, "Your Majesty, I know I was wrong, please let me go!"

The jailer, Old Xing, watched him howl, and stole a glance at the prince in the torture room next to him. He took off a torn sock from his foot, stuffed it into Gu Beichen's mouth, and whispered in his ear, "General Gu, stop making trouble. If you anger the prince, I'm afraid you'll get more than 50 strokes of the cane."

Gu Beichen finally gave up struggling, staring at the dirty ground with a dejected look on his face.

At this time, the jailer came over carrying the torture instrument, which was covered with an uneven layer of iron sheet. When the first board hit Gu Beichen, he broke out in a cold sweat from the pain, whimpered, and tears flowed down his face.

The jailer did not hold back and hit him with stick after stick.

Old Xing counted expressionlessly, "One, two, three..." His voice was drawn out.

Gu Beichen fainted from the pain after the 10th stick.

Old Xing plucked up his courage and walked to the nearby torture chamber. After paying his respects, he said, "Your Majesty, General Gu has fainted. What should we do?"

The Regent said calmly, "Just do what you normally do."

Old Xing nodded and said, "Yes, Your Majesty, wait until he wakes up tomorrow and then execute him. Wait until he is fully executed before letting him out."

The Regent bowed his head, and Old Xing retreated tremblingly, went to the next room, and waved to the two jailers.

The two jailers then untied Gu Beichen, dragged him to the cell door, and threw the unconscious him into the cell.
