After the carriage left the Arms Department, Yeluyan said in a deep voice: "Go to the dungeon."

"Yes!"

Jinwu drove a carriage to meet the guards waiting at the alley, and the group marched toward the dungeon in a mighty manner.

Today at the Qinzheng Hall, Yeluqi placed all the blame on Gu Li, saying that he was only coerced.

How could Xiao Dilu and other ministers allow such a good opportunity to trip up Yeluqi? They naturally argued with reason.

Yeluyan promised Guli Rao that Yeluqi would not die, but he did not say how he would survive.

In the court, Yelu Yan deprived Yelu Qi of his position as prince, took back all his fiefdoms, demoted him to a commoner, and imprisoned him in Shanhua Temple on the outskirts of Beijing for life.

The name of this temple is a mockery of Yelu Qi Tianda.

Yeluyan knew that Yeluqi must be evil and kept him under his nose, making it difficult for him to stir up any trouble.

This is the best way to dispose of it.

Yelu Qi must be of royal blood. If he were to kill him, Yelu Yan would be notorious for being unkind and fratricidal.

In addition to the treatment of Yeluqi, Guli was punished with treason, demoted to a commoner, removed the royal secret records, buried in a mass grave, and was not allowed to erect a monument or write a biography. All direct relatives of Guli were killed without mercy, while other relatives who had close contact with him were exiled to the bitter cold land of western Yunnan. They were not allowed to enter the court as officials for three generations, and were not allowed to return to Beijing for life without an imperial edict.

This is the most severe punishment for rebels.

The wheels of royal power roll forward, rolling over countless bones. This has been the case in all dynasties.

When Ye Luyan was dealing with court affairs, he ordered the dining room of Haoyang Palace to prepare enough food. He planned to deliver food to Li Xianyun at noon, and then go to the military camp to take a look.

After the government affairs are taken care of, the food is ready.

Ye Luyan got on the carriage and led the guards all the way out of the palace, filled with anticipation and joy at seeing Li Xianyun.

But just after passing the market, a group of assassins came over from the trees and walls.

This assassination was particularly violent.

However, Yeluyan's guards were not vegetarians and quickly took control of the situation.

There were corpses lying on the ground, and several of the survivors were also controlled.

Yeluyan asked a few guards to put him alive in the dungeon for interrogation, and planned to go to the dungeon after delivering the meal.

The group of people soon arrived at the dungeon. The soldiers at the door saw that their Khan was coming and quickly opened the dungeon door respectfully.

Yeluyan led a group of people in.

The dungeon is very dark. Every few meters, a torch will light up on the wall, and the fire will burn brightly, illuminating the dark dungeon. There is a very unpleasant musty smell.

Occasionally, mice that are not afraid of humans crawl across the aisles, sniffing here and there as if no one else is around.

The soldiers in the prison led the way very respectfully.

When they arrived at the interrogation room, the soldier opened the door.

Yeluyan stepped in.

I saw an assassin tied to a wooden frame with his skin torn and bloody.

When Ye Luyan entered, a soldier dipped his leather whip in pepper water and whipped it hard.

The assassin grimaced in pain, but still gritted his teeth and persisted, refusing to say a word.

Everyone heard the sound at this time and hurriedly knelt on the ground and bowed their arms to salute, "See Khan."

Yeluyan did not speak, but walked about five meters in front of the assassin and stood tall.

A guard brought an imperial chair to Yeluyan and placed it behind him.

Yeluyan sat down and looked coldly at the tortured assassin. He looked both cold and noble, like a demon from purgatory and a god from heaven. The two extreme feelings perfectly blended into Yeluyan, making people move. Don't open your eyes.

The interrogating soldier knelt on the ground and bent his arms in salute: "Khan, forgive me, these assassins are very strict with their mouths, and they have not even said a single word in their humble position."

Yeluyan didn't even frown and said quietly: "A few people were arrested alive in total."

"Seven." The interrogating soldier said truthfully.

"Then the punishment will be to gouge one's head. Seven people will try in turn, and they will always be able to find someone who is willing to tell the truth."

Gou Dian is a kind of death penalty in which a person is struck on the head with an iron tool. It was abolished because of its cruelty and cold-bloodedness.

The assassin was so frightened that his legs weakened when he heard this, especially when the soldier came over with a sharp awl in one hand and a hammer in the other.

The sharp cone touched the assassin's head, and the soldier raised his hammer to pound it.

The assassin was horrified: "I recruit! I confess!"
