after rebirth

Zhao Hengxu stood inside the palace gate and watched the scene outside under the cover of the gate. It was so lively. Because of the exile rule, most people still decided to come and redeem them, but very few people were willing to offer 2000 taels of silver to save them. Board, the young master of Wang Yushi's family is having his trousers stripped off and pressed on the bench to hit the board. Where has the young master with thin skin and tender flesh suffered this kind of pain, screaming in pain? Struggling to escape.

"Dad, dad, my son is going to die, wow, ah..."

Mr. Wang listened to Xiaosanlang read his son's deeds of visiting Huajie for more than three months with a disheartened face, every word slapped him in the face.

The cane punishment came one by one, and every time they beat each one, they had to read out the records of their shopping in Huajie one by one. Everyone felt that the bench was familiar, and the bloody scene in front of them reappeared again, even the executioner was so familiar.Anyone who has seen the stick beating subconsciously swallowed, it was so difficult, and the bloody body was everyone's nightmare.

"It's a pity." Zhao Hengxu sighed helplessly in his heart, why didn't he pay the money, the money was wiped out, and the national treasury could be relieved a little bit. "Don't look at it, go to the dungeon. Hao Ren stares here and writes down everyone's reactions."

"Here."

Wu Shanfinally and Hao Ren both promised that Hao Ren would maintain order here, but the Jinyi Guards were still short of manpower, and they needed the help of the Imperial Forest Army to calm down everyone present.

I have to sigh, Yeting Hall is a very magical place, it has a huge underground cage, which is the real sky prison.The prison is made of thick bluestone, and the railings of the gatehouse are made of the best refined iron. There are no windows, and torches are lit day and night, and it is impossible to tell whether it is day or night.

In his previous life, Zhao Hengxu locked Zhao Yizhan here. No one would talk to Zhao Yizhan, and no one would put out the torch. Zhao Yizhan went crazy in less than half a year.

The dungeon is very clean, there is basically no smell, and the thick stone walls are not even a mouse or cockroach is happy to come here.Deng Xiuji was imprisoned in the outermost room. He was a spineless man who hadn't even been sentenced. So he told everything he could know, including when he was six years old in his elder brother's teacup. Spit on things are not reserved.

It's a pity that Zhao Yizhan was not among the people involved. Zhao Hengxu looked at the confession in his hand, every single word could kill the Deng family. As for Zhao Yizhan, let him be happy for a while, the short-term cure of the cancer is only superficial , the corruption inside can only be eradicated by slow medicine.

"Well done." Zhao Hengxu praised.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, but this subordinate didn't dare to do anything, he didn't do anything, he just waved the whip soaked in salt water a few times, he was so scared that he peed on his pants, and he said everything before asking." Wu Shan finally said truthfully , He even brought out Jin Yiwei's new instruments of torture, and was going to try them on Deng Xiuji's body. What kind of blood tribulus, red-hot nail boards, they haven't tried the effect yet!

Zhao Hengxu sneered, and threw the confession into Wu Shanzhong's arms, "Organize people with Liang Weiting, and when I give orders, we will control the family of officials mentioned in the confession, especially the Duke of Wei, oh, and Marquis of Anwu, Tsk tsk, why didn't you mention it, just hang around for a day or two according to any crime, and treat them well, you know?"

"Here." Wu Shan finally promised sonorously and forcefully, the excitement in his eyes gradually rose, glowing with a bloodthirsty light.

----------------------

They are all in the dungeon. If you don’t come to see what Deng Xiuji looks like, Zhao Hengxu feels sorry for himself. The more stupid Deng Xiuji is, the faster the Deng family will die. Duke Wei gave birth to a good son!

"Let me out, let me out." Deng Xiuji begged and yelled, over and over again, under the bright torches, in the empty stone prison, even his voice echoed.

Hearing the movement, Deng Xiuji squinted his eyes and raised his head, his eyes suddenly brightened, and he rushed out scrambling, but was kicked far by Wu Shanzhong, lying on the ground for a long time before he made any movement, his mouth was filled with a pile of dirt Afterwards, he begged and looked at Zhao Hengxu with pitiful eyes, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I am Deng Xiuji, the second son of the Duke of Wei, the second brother of the Queen, Your Majesty, I have done nothing, really. Yes, I am innocent, these villains..." He raised his arm and pointed at Wu Shanzhong fiercely, "Your Majesty, you should teach them a lesson, they even arrested the royal relatives at will and beat me, Your Majesty, you Do justice to me."

The son raised by Duke Wei is really good. He thought it was the time of Emperor Xuan, when the Deng family could have all the power in the court, and it would not be so fast to find death in front of Zhao Hengxu.

Zhao Hengxu lowered his eyes and looked at Deng Xiuji indifferently. He was wrapped in disgustingly colored clothes. His body was dirty and smelled like urine. Duke Wei was lucky to have a son like him.

"Your Majesty, cough cough, cough cough." Deng Xiuji cried out pleadingly, causing chest pain, coughing several times, saliva flying around, Wu Shanzhong's kick was very measured, it would not hurt at all Deng Xiuji, but it won't make Deng Xiuji feel better.Moving forward and crawling a few times, Deng Xiuji yelled without giving up, "Your Majesty...brother-in-law, my sister is the assassin who blocked you, she is your queen, she is the queen who died for you, She was still pregnant with your child when she died, Your Majesty, I am her elder brother, please let me go, yes, brother-in-law, my father is the Duke of Wei, without my family, you would not be able to get the throne at all, don’t watch For the sake of my dead sister, and for the sake of the throne, you should let me go, otherwise..." Deng Xiuji grinned, and under the dazzlingly bright torch, he looked extraordinarily wretched, with an expression on his face Blurred and weird, with loose eyes, maybe even he himself didn't know what he said.

I said again and again, my brother-in-law took one bite at a time, Wu Shanzhong saw that Deng Xiuji was already a dead man with his downcast eyes.

Half a year ago, when Zhao Hengxu's army was stationed in Tongzhou to discuss the next step, Deng Sheng sent someone to him, asking for a marriage, and promised to help Zhao Hengxu win the throne smoothly.It's not that Deng Sheng doesn't want to become king on his own or find a puppet like Zhao Yizhan, but is it interesting to be an emperor who only has the capital and a small range of counties around the capital?

After careful consideration, Zhao Yizhan agreed to Wei Guogong's request for marriage, and decided to adopt a relatively mild method to enter the capital.Suppression by force is certainly possible, but Zhao Hengxu's surname is Zhao, and the capital is where the Zhao family's foundation has been for generations. Force is not completely convincing, and he will be criticized if he ascends the throne, causing endless troubles. Afterwards, Zhao Hengxu married in a hurry. Deng Shi Suzhen.

Later, when she entered the capital, Deng Suzhen became the queen naturally. In the eyes of others, Deng Suzhen, who is gentle and quiet, talented and dignified, is simply a model wife, but Zhao Hengxu doesn't like it. Deng Suzhen is too fake, which makes people disgusted. .Hehe, such a hypocritical Deng Suzhen actually gave him a cuckold, it's disgusting to think about it, he still hasn't figured out how Deng Suzhen and Zhao Yizhan exchanged songs, and achieved good things under his nose.

Zhao Hengxu's eyes turned cold, and he smiled coldly, "Deng Xiuji."

The voice was not loud, but it pierced into Deng Xiuji's chaotic brain like a sharp knife, and his whole body trembled, and he woke up from the trance in an instant.With his head cleared, Deng Xiuji finally remembered what he was talking nonsense, trembling, and quickly put himself on the ground, knocking his head, "Your Majesty, forgive me, Your Majesty, please forgive me. "

"In fact, I really want to know why Wei Guogong called you such an idiot after discussing such a big matter." Zhao Hengxu twitched the corners of his mouth mockingly.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty... Your Majesty..." Deng Xiuji shook his voice, "Chen...Chen, Hu...hu... Nonsense, hehe, hehe..." He laughed twice dryly shaking his cheeks.

"Nonsense, but you made bets last night." Zhao Hengxu clicked his tongue twice. He really admired Deng Xiuji's ugly face, which made him seem to be able to see how beautiful Zhao Yizhan's death was.

Wu Shan finally launched the confession in cooperation, and the three characters Deng Xiuji were impressively written on the inscription, as well as the fingerprints of the thumbs of the left and right hands.

--------------

At the first moment of time, Deng Xiugu finally fulfilled his wish and was summoned by His Majesty, and entered the imperial study room. As soon as he entered, he saw Chongzhi's expensive book case, his heart skipped a beat, his legs softened and he knelt down beside him "Minister, minister." Deng Xiugu's mouth trembled twice, and he shook his palm fiercely. His nails pierced the palm of his hand and made his beating heart a little steady. .”

As soon as Deng Xiugu came in, there was a disgrace in front of the imperial court. The sufferer Zhong Zhizhi silently gave him a contemptuous look, and Zhong Zhizhi couldn't hold back anymore. He stated the tragic experience of his nephew, When asking His Majesty to uphold justice, His Majesty did not say a word. He knelt down and begged to punish Duke Wei, and His Majesty did not let him stand up. He has experienced too much in the past few days, and his sister's hoarse cry echoed in his ears. His originally prudent and prudent heart has also changed.He despises Deng Xiugu's disrespect in front of the imperial court, so it's not wrong for him to act like this.

Zhao Hengxu looked coldly at the two people below, waited for Deng Xiugu to salute, and said: "Chongxiang, now that the Deng family is here, you can repeat what you said to me before."

Zhong Zhifeng nodded, "Here." The voice was short and forceful, "My minister's nephew, Bao Hui, was well-behaved and sensible since he was a child. Because of his frailty, he didn't get any honor in the exam, but his reputation for talent and virtue is well known in the minister's hometown. Such a nephew, after His Majesty ascended the throne as emperor, brought him into the capital with his mother and his minister's younger sister. After entering Beijing, the nephew studied poetry and books, and often gathered with scholars in Beijing to compose poems, which can be regarded as gaining some Fame. A few days ago, my poor nephew." Speaking of this, Zhong Zhi couldn't hide his excitement, wiped the corners of his eyes with his sleeves, blinked twice vigorously on the red eye sockets, and the bearded His face became more ferocious, and Deng Xiugu, who was beside him with a goatee and a fair face, looked like a little chicken compared to him.
