"It is an indisputable fact that poison was found in the food utensils used by the emperor. Now the ninth brother is the biggest suspect, and he should be put in prison pending trial... General Wen, is there anything wrong with what I said?"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone's eyes immediately fell on Wen Jue.

Yin Wujiu's heart suddenly sank.

——This Wen Jue has a bloody feud with him, and he has never been used to him, so how could he speak for him, and maybe...he has a part in this matter.

As expected, Wen Jue's answer did not "disappoint" Yin Wujiu.

"The Eighth Prince's words are not inappropriate." The man stood there as if he had nothing to do with himself, and said indifferently.

When Yin Hongqi heard the words, a tricky smile appeared on his face.

There is nothing wrong with it, is it too big?

Not to mention how many people have to pass through the hands of the emperor to get his food, but if there are so many people who have met Emperor Shang Wen today, then all these people are suspected, will they all be thrown into the prison?Everyone including Wen Jue and Yin Hongqi.

But what's the use of saying these now, now that the emperor is gone, no one in the court can uphold justice, whoever holds the most important power, what he says is the truth.

The four princes and the eight princes already have a lot of power in their hands, and with the support of General Wen, what can they do even if they treat a deer as a horse?

"Your Majesty, General, the Holy Majesty has just passed away, and there will be turmoil inside and outside the court. How can it be..." Half of the people present wished to make trouble, half of them were the fourth prince and his own people, and half of them were wise and safe. In the end, they opened their mouths and said something fair. , Zhao Yansheng was the only one left.

"Dog slave, do you have a place to speak?" But before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Yin Hongjie. When Zhao Yansheng wanted to speak again, Yin Hongjie kicked him and turned him over. , fell to the ground and didn't get up for a long time.

Even if Emperor Shang Wen is a worthless emperor, that is the fate of the women in the palace. Zhao Yansheng is the most trusted person in front of him. He has never been slighted in the past few decades. He just wanted to say something fair, but he didn't. After being slapped so hard by someone, while my mind was in a daze, I felt even more sad from it, thinking of Emperor Shang Wen who had just passed away.

Everyone in the hall was stunned for a moment, Yin Hongjie adjusted the collar of his clothes, and ordered: "What are you doing in a daze, why don't you come up quickly to get someone?"

The group of face-to-face guards immediately swarmed up when they heard the words. Obviously, they were the ones arranged by the two brothers earlier in the morning.

But Wen Wen Jue didn't expect that Emperor Shang Wen would pass away at this time, and he didn't know that these people replaced the palace guards because of his negligence of precautions.

Seeing Yin Wujiu being taken down, Yin Hongqi proudly walked up to Wen Jue, wanting to say something, but Wen Jue blocked her back before she could say anything.

"Your Majesty passed away, the Eighth Prince didn't see any signs of sadness, why is he so happy instead?"

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of the group of people looking at Yin Hongqi suddenly changed.

The smile on Yin Hongqi's face froze in an instant, blushed for a while, and glared at Wen Jue angrily: "You..."

"This general has always been loyal to the emperor and patriotic, and the late emperor was kind to this general. Now that the late emperor has been murdered by villains, this general will never let the culprit go unpunished." Although Wen Jue's attitude was lazy and his tone was loose, he hurriedly said one sentence, Yin Hongqi couldn't speak at all.

After speaking, he bowed to Emperor Shang Wen on the bed, turned around and walked out.

"Eighth brother, what do you mean by that man named Wen?" Yin Hongjie frowned and said, "Didn't you say that he agreed to help us eradicate that evil species?"

"Don't worry, he will. Those words are just for the occasion. If the old nine ascends the throne, what good will it do him? He won't target us."

Yin Hongjie thought for a while, and felt that what he said made sense, so he was relieved: "Then what shall we do next?"

A gleam of coldness flashed across Yin Hongqi's face: "Since he's gone in, don't even think about getting out alive, let's go, you and I will go to the prison to see Brother Jiu first."

The floor of the cell was covered with a thin layer of damp and moldy straw, with cockroaches and mice crawling around from time to time, and a disgusting pungent smell filled his breath. At this time, a young man was sitting quietly Sitting on the dilapidated small bench in this prison, he has a calm demeanor, a clean appearance, and a clean suit. Looking closely, his hands and feet under the bare sleeves of the toga are tightly bound by cold and heavy iron chains. .

The footsteps in the corridor gradually became clearer, and after a while, the chain on the prison door was opened, and several Yu soldiers walked in, and they wanted to take Yin Wujiu away without a word.

Yin Wujiu questioned them a few words, but the few people couldn't tell the reason, but they directly attacked.

Yin Wujiu's limbs were tied up, even if he couldn't use all his abilities, he was taken to the execution room, and the two brothers Yin Hongqi and Yin Hongjie were waiting there.

"Why did you come here?" Yin Hongjie immediately stood up from his chair as soon as he saw him, looking impatient for waiting.

A Yu Zu cautiously replied: "My lord calm down, it's just that he didn't cooperate and injured several of our brothers along the way, so it took us a while."

"You're so upside down that you're already in prison today, yet you still dare to make trouble!" Yin Hongjie sneered, and then suddenly said, "Cuff up!"

Yin Wujiu said coldly: "You guys want to use lynching just because you have passed the trial?"

Yin Hongqi said, "Aren't we in the trial now? What's the hurry for Brother Jiu?"

Yin Wujiu was soon hung on the rack by those jailers, Yin Hongjie didn't say anything, first he whipped him several times.

Yin Wujiu suddenly felt a burning, heart-piercing pain.

Seeing the big beads of sweat falling on his painful face, Yin Hongjie relieved his anger and said, "You son of a bitch, this king made you run rampant, now that your father is dead, let me see who will back you up.

Yin Wujiu knew very well in his heart that he had touched the vital interests of many people since he presided over the reform, and Yin Hongjie and Yin Hongqi were one of them. With less than half a layer of skin, the soldiers and horses under his command can't dispel the near fire after all. As for the civil servants who follow him, no matter how sharp their mouths are at this time, it is impossible to say that those officers and soldiers who blocked them rushed in.

Yin Wujiu was in pain, felt ridiculed and worried at the same time.

——On weekdays, when he bumped and bumped, even if he scratched a little bit with his fingers, he would talk about Master for a long time. If he went back with a whole body injured today, I don't know how angry Master would be?

"It seems that the emperor's service is not enough, the ninth brother still has the time to be distracted?" Yin Hongjie dropped the blood-stained whip in his hand, and his vicious eyes slowly swept around, and finally stopped On a red-hot soldering iron burning in a brazier.

When the iron was pulled out from the brazier, countless crackling sparks were brought up, which looked very eerie and terrifying in the dark and silent torture room.

Yin Hongjie slowly raised his hand, and raised the soldering iron to Yin Wujiu's chest: "How about it, Ninth Brother, are you afraid?"

How could he not be afraid, but he couldn't show his timidity in front of these two villains. He stared at Yin Hongjie resentfully, gritted his teeth and said nothing.

"This branding iron is burned on the body, and it's fine if it hurts, but if it's burned in a conspicuous place, fourth brother, do you think the Great Chamber of Commerce will want a person with a shameful punishment to be emperor?"

You Sen's words echoed in the closed torture room, Yin Wujiu's heart sank suddenly, but Yin Hongjie suddenly seemed enlightened.

"Ninth brother, where do you think the stabbing should be, the cheek, the mouth, the forehead, or..." He raised his hand, and held the fiery red iron in the direction of Yin Wujiu's face, half a finger away. I searched for the position from up, down, left, and right, and finally settled on the top of the right eye, "Just the eye!"

"No, don't..." Yin Wujiu felt that his eyes could not be opened due to the heat, he could no longer calm down, and struggled vigorously, but the black iron chains that locked his hands and feet were so hard, the chains Amidst the clanking sound of the collision, the veins all over his body were bulging, and his skin was worn to the point of bleeding, but he couldn't open it even halfway.

"Hahahaha, it turns out that Ninth Brother's fearless appearance is just pretending?" Yin Wujiu's forced desperation made Yin Hongjie inexplicably excited, "But now, you are It's too late to admit cowardice and beg for mercy."

As Yin Hongjie said, his hand moved forward slowly, and he was about to press the soldering iron to Yin Wujiu's eyes.

He had worked in the Ministry of Criminal Justice before, and he knew that taking it slowly like this would be more painful and tormenting than pressing it all at once.

The hot temperature made his eyeballs hurt, Yin Wujiu retreated back again and again, until there was no way to retreat, he closed his eyes again in despair.

At this moment, he heard a scream of pain.

He was so tense that he didn't even recognize who the scream belonged to. He didn't realize that something was wrong until the wailing sound in his ear lasted for several seconds.

Yin Wujiu's eyelashes trembled, and then he tried to open his eyes.

"Master, Master?" Looking at the tall and straight figure in front of him, Yin Wujiu couldn't believe it, until the other person turned around, a familiar face came into view, "Master, it's really you!" , why are you here?"

"If I don't come, you..." Wen Jue said half a sentence, but suddenly he couldn't continue, paused, he moved his sword like flying, and snapped the iron chains that locked Yin Wujiu's hands and feet.

Yin Wujiu was caught off guard and lost his support, his body was about to slide to the ground, Wen Jue quickly pulled him into his arms, preventing his body from falling to the ground.

"It hurts, but bear with it!"

Yin Wujiu looked at Wen Jue's deeply furrowed brow, raised his hand to stroke it lightly, and said, "It's just some skin trauma, Master, don't be angry."

Wen's determination froze, and he didn't know what to say.

He was indeed angry, it wasn't Yin Wujiu who was hurt, nor the person who hurt him, but himself—it was only a matter of his words, at that time he should never have let these two guys put Wujiu in prison Into the dungeon.

I thought that I could stabilize my damn persona by saying that, and at the same time Yin Wujiu went into the cell, Yin Hongqi and the two brothers would definitely murder him, whether it was assassination or poisoning, Wen Jue had a way to resolve it, and at the same time he You can also get some evidence. After that, as long as he finds the evidence that Yin Hongqi poisoned Emperor Shangwen to death, the two crimes will be punished together.

It's just that he had calculated thousands of times, but he didn't expect that the two brothers couldn't wait for a moment, didn't go through the procedure, and didn't wait for the prison officer to arraign them, so they directly brought him here for lynching.

Fortunately, he came quickly, otherwise, he would never be able to forgive himself in his life!
