I go to the ancient imperial examinations

Chapter 531 Interrogation
Zhan Feiyu decided to send someone to interrogate Zhao Yuan, and Zhifu Jiao and Mrs. Jiao also agreed, but saw a young man in a black dress come in from outside the house, but he didn't even look at Zhifu Jiao who was on the main seat. Zhan Feiyu bowed respectfully.

Could this be the dead man of the scholar's mansion?Jiao Lianping sat up straight, staring at the young man with ordinary facial features and ordinary aura, who would be unrecognizable in the crowd. He didn't even have a trace of murderous aura on him, and he was thin and thin. He doesn't look like a Lianjiazi.

Different from Jiao Lianping's superficial ability to distinguish people, Jiao Zhifu noticed the difference. This person looks ordinary at first glance, but his eyes are cold and indifferent, like an endless abyss. Only a person who lives in the dark can be so dead. eyes.

this?Zhan Feiyu's eyes widened suddenly, and he didn't even see him make a move, but the rope tied to Zhao Yuan's body was instantly torn apart. Even if it was broken by internal force, but it only broke the rope and did not hurt anyone, it is definitely not ordinary Lian Jiazi can do it.

Also slightly stunned, the first reaction of Zhao Yuan, who realized he was free, was to run away, but before he had time to move, the young man quickly tapped the acupuncture points on Zhao Yuan's body a few times.

"Ah..." A wailing scream sounded, and Zhao Yuan's straightened body fell back to the ground again. The pain was severe, his face became hideous, and his whole body was twisted on the ground like a bug.

This sudden change shocked everyone in the room, and they knew how painful it was just by hearing the screams.

Chen was so frightened that she fell down on the chair and tried her best to control her emotions, but her body couldn't stop shaking. She remembered that when she was young, she once frightened the horse. At that time, Zhao Yuan flew to save herself. Jumping forward to protect himself, Crazy Horse stepped on Zhao Yuan's left arm.

Mrs. Chen clearly remembered the cracking sound of bones being broken, but even though the pain was so severe, Zhao Yuan, who was only ten years old at the time, did not cry out for pain.

But seeing Zhao Yuan twitching in pain, Chen couldn't imagine the pain, let alone what would happen to him if Zhao Yuan confessed?
The young man tapped the acupuncture point twice again, and the howling finally stopped.

Zhao Yuan's whole body seemed to be fished out of the water, curled up on the ground panting heavily, his face was so pale that there was no trace of blood.

"Say it or not?" the young man said, his voice was calm and not cold at all, but even so, when he opened his mouth, Zhao Yuan's body twitched in fright, obviously already scared.

With a movement of his wrist, there was a bright silver blade in the young man's palm. It was only the size of a palm, but the blade was as thin as a cicada's wing.

"Ah!" The painful cry sounded again.

Zhan Feiyu saw it clearly this time, the young man moved his right hand twice, once to cut off the clothes on Zhao Yuan's shoulder, and once to slash the sharp knife across Zhao Yuan's shoulder blade.

"What a fast knife!" Jiao Lianping said in a daze, but this knife was aimed at the hand at the joint of the shoulder blade, directly cutting off the tendons connecting the bones.

Looking at the blood on the ground, Jiao Lianping suddenly believed in the so-called "thousand cuts". This kind of knife method can really cut off the prisoner's flesh one by one. won't die.

Without waiting for Zhao Yuan to speak, the young man used the same method to cut off the veins of Zhao Yuan's left shoulder blade, then raised his wrist, and the knife flashed, but a piece of flesh on the shoulder was cut off.

Blood gushed out in an instant, and Zhao Yuan screamed in pain, but his body seemed to be nailed to the ground, and he couldn't move at all under such severe pain.

Zhan Feiyu instantly thought of the dish of garlic and white meat, which she would never eat with chopsticks in her life.

Jiao Lianping also thought of it, and felt nauseated at the moment, and quickly turned his head away, but the piece of flesh that was cut off clearly came to mind.

"Master?" Aunt Huang's voice trembled. She looked soft and gentle, and she would use some means to punish her servants in private. The combination of grace and power is a good strategy, but compared with the cold-blooded actions of the young man, Aunt Huang felt that I am too kind, this is clearly the executioner.

Jiao Zhifu also used torture when interrogating prisoners, but the yamen usually beat the board, and if it was a severe punishment, they would use a stick, and generally the third-level prisoners would confess.

Seeing how skillfully the young man cut off the veins and peeled off the flesh, Zhifu Jiao knew without thinking that this person was not a dead man from the scholar's mansion, but from the Forbidden Dragon Guard.

"I recruit..." Compared with physical pain, Zhao Yuan is more afraid of the tormenting methods behind the executioner in front of him, who will eventually be unable to bear the confession, so it is better to suffer less.

The young man's face remained flat, neither disappointed nor proud. He wiped the blood-stained blade clean and put it away, stood up and stepped aside. Zhao Yuan could just confess, if he didn't confess, he could continue the trial.

"Sir, let's go back!" Chen's voice trembled like a leaf falling in the cold wind, and he grabbed Jiao Lianping's wrist with such force that his nails almost dug into his flesh.

"Sit down!" Mrs. Jiao shouted coldly, looking at the terrified Chen Shi with cold eyes, she knew she was afraid at this moment, but unfortunately it was too late.

Zhao Yuan lowered his head and said, after all, the affection between his son and daughter could not allow him to overcome his physical and mental pain.

"You ordered this person to murder Lianyu?" Jiao Zhifu finally showed a bit of regret in his eyes. He should not have forced his eldest son to marry the Chen family back then.

Jiao Lianping burst out laughing, forgetting the bloody scene just now, looking at the shivering Chen family like an idiot, "Don't you think that Jiao's family will be handed over to me after Jiao Lianyu's death?"

Although he didn't like the prefect Jiao's father, Jiao Lianping also knew that the prefect Jiao was upright. If one of his two sons died and the other was useless, then the heirs of the Jiao family would look for it from the side branch. In other words, those who can live there.

In fact, not only the Jiao Mansion, but also the Qiu family in Qianzhong Dao. The children of the direct branch have been taught by famous teachers since they were young, and there are countless books in the family. The elders in the family are even more hand-in-hand. Ascot.

Under such conditions, if the descendants of the direct branch are not yet mature, it is only a matter of time before they take over the family business and ruin the ancestral property. Instead of this, it is better to select excellent heirs from the side branches, who will eventually be family members of the same family with the same surname.

"Why?" Mrs. Chen was stunned for a moment. She thought that as long as Jiao Lianyu died, everything in the Jiao family would belong to their elder wife. As for Aunt Huang's favor, it's just her father's concubine. The money was sent.

Aunt Huang didn't expect that the person behind the scenes would be Mrs. Chen. Even though she always looked down on Mrs. Mrs. Chen, Aunt Huang never thought Mrs. Chen was stupid but bold enough to commit murder.

Jiao Lianping glanced at Zhan Feiyu apologetically, but he didn't have the slightest sympathy for Chen's wife. At this moment, he said indifferently: "The murderer pays his life, and the debt is paid back! Father, since Zhao Yuan has already confessed, why don't you let him go?" Their masters and servants must be brought to justice."

"Shut up!" Zhifu Jiao threw the teacup at Jiao Lianping in a rage, but he forced his eldest son to marry this daughter-in-law.

Mrs. Jiao gave her son a warning look, and she didn't care about Zhifu Jiao's embarrassment at the moment. As for Chunchan..."

Mrs. Jiao looked at Chunchan who was kneeling on the ground, and continued in a deep voice: "Mother Niu, drag people down and beat them to death with sticks!"

Although Chunchan is Chen's dowry maid, she is also a child of the family. She signed a contract of prostitution and was beaten to death. Chunchan's parents and I can only recognize her.

"Ma'am, spare me!" Chunchan yelled sadly, and wanted to grab Mrs. Chen, but unfortunately, Mammy Niu moved faster, took out a handkerchief and stuffed Chunchan's mouth, and let the guards drag her away go down.

Mrs. Chen opened her mouth, but couldn't utter a word, she could only watch Zhifu Jiao and Mrs. Jiao silently pleading with tears streaming down her face, she didn't want to die, she was Jiao Fu's young wife, Jiao Lianping was just a humble bastard!

"Mr. Chen will die of illness." Mrs. Jiao finally gave Mrs. Chen the last face.

"You can't kill me!" Chen yelled like crazy, stepping back again and again, shouting with horror on his face, "I am the daughter of the Chen family, you can't kill me!"

Mrs. Jiao looked coldly at the Chen family who was yelling and screaming, "If you buy a murderer, you will die in the yamen! The Chen family has more than one daughter, do you think the Chen family will give you the head?"

The Chen family estimated that the Chen family would be killed immediately, and she could not be allowed to harm all the girls of the Chen family, especially now that the Chen family is in decline and can only rely on the Jiao family. Mrs. Jiao has spoken, how can the Chen family dare Not from.

It would be fine if Chen and Jiao Lianping were in a friendly relationship, but she was not favored, and now she is a murderer. Although it was an attempt, if Chen is alive, not to mention Jiao Lianping is afraid, other people are also afraid. God knows that one day she will go crazy again. homicide.
