On the day the empress ascended the throne, my body was hung at the city gate

Chapter 49 Two living kings of hell were sent
"Your Majesty, spare your life."

"Your Majesty, we really don't know anything. We are just ordered to guard the royal city."

"If you don't say anything yet, continue the torture."

"Yes!"

"pat-"

With a crisp sound, the man's legs were directly broken.

After Li Moyun left.

The first thing Wu Mingyue did was to put all the ministers related to the battle for power into prison.

After she ascended the throne, these ministers who had contributed to the battle between her and Gu Changsheng for power were all rewarded based on their merits.

But wait until all the truth is revealed.

But Wu Mingyue wanted to cut him into pieces with a thousand knives and cut his body into pieces.

It was precisely because of these people's concealment that her misunderstanding of Gu Changsheng became deeper and deeper.

Moreover, if these people were also involved in the murder of the father.

Even if he died thousands of times, it would not be enough to atone for his sins.

however.

Everyone seemed to know how treacherous what they had done back then was.

Even Wu Mingyue had imposed the most cruel punishment on them since ancient times.

Everyone gritted their teeth, not daring to admit it at all.

Because they know.

Once this matter is admitted, all nine clans may be implicated together.

"Go on, I want to see how long they can endure it."

Wu Mingyue's eyes were cold. After learning all the truth, she was filled with anger and urgently needed to vent.

"Your Majesty the Empress, these people have already made up their mind to hide that matter until death. It is useless to force a confession like this."

"Why don't we give it a try? We will definitely find a clear answer for His Majesty."

At the moment when the cane was about to fall.

From the prison on the other side, two flattering but helpless voices came.

Xu Ziling, Kou Zhong.

Those two apprentices of Imperial Master Qingyang?

Look along the source of the sound.

It was the two Taoist boys who were at the same banquet table with Imperial Master Qingyang that day, pretending to be Qingyang Imperial Master's apprentices.

Since the incident was exposed, he has been imprisoned in prison.

A series of things happened after that.

Wu Mingyue simply forgot about these two people in the prison.

During this period of time in the prison, the two of them felt like they were stuck in their throats, like thorns on their backs, and like they were sitting on pins and needles.

Now that I finally see the opportunity to perform, I naturally won't let it go.

Speaking of which, both of them were unlucky.

After all, the general said nicely at that time that if you enter the royal city according to his method, you will be able to live without worries about food and clothing, and enjoy endless glory and wealth.

Now we really have no worries about food and clothing, and we also have food and shelter.

As for wealth and glory, it cannot be said that it has nothing to do with it, it can only be said that it cannot be touched with eight poles.

If I had known today, I would have continued to deceive and deceive the people, and at least I would have been able to make a living.

"Master, that old friend of yours has made the disciples miserable."

Thinking of this, both Xu Ziling and Kou Zhong couldn't help but burst into tears.

"Oh, do you have a way to get them to explain?"

Wu Mingyue couldn't help but look surprised.

Now the mystery of Qingyang Imperial Master has been revealed. He is not an immortal who returned from the Penglai Immortal Island overseas.

It was just a pawn packaged by Gu Changsheng and placed in the middle of the court to fight against Qin Hui.

This Imperial Master did not master any mysterious magical skills, but only some methods of deception and abduction taught by Gu Changsheng.

Naturally, these two disciples of Qingyang Imperial Master also lost their role.

But now, I really have no way to get these people to truthfully recruit the details of the battle to seize power.

A dead horse is a living horse doctor, so it's not a bad idea to let these two guys try it.

Moreover, from Gu Changsheng's point of view, it was impossible for two charlatans to enter the court of Zhou Dynasty without any reason.

Therefore, there must be untapped strengths in these two people.Wu Mingyue touched her chin, considered it carefully, and then ordered to the people beside her: "Let these two people go first."

"His Majesty……"

The guard next to him hesitated when he heard this.

Although Xu Ziling and Kou Zhong are just ordinary people.

But with that head full of people, I don’t know where he learned the tricks to deceive and deceive?
On more than one occasion, he tricked the guards who were responsible for guarding him around.

Why start a fire out of thin air...

Controlling objects in the air...

Mixing certain kinds of stone powder together in special proportions can create an explosion.

It was not until later that everyone tied their hands and feet with chains, that they would be honest.

If this is released, who knows what will happen?
"It's okay. If they play any tricks again, just kill them."

Wu Mingyue waved her hands, as if she wasn't worried about the two of them running away again.

This is the royal city of the Great Zhou Dynasty. If even two charlatan warlocks can come and go freely.

Then she can no longer be the empress.

When the imperial guards heard this, they had no choice but to obey the order and temporarily let the two men go.

However, Xu Ziling and Kou Zhong, who had just been rescued, were filled with gratitude and had no other thoughts at all.

After all, they were really afraid of being imprisoned during this period.

The combined age of the two of them is less than half a century, but they have to spend the rest of their time in prison.

It is unacceptable for anyone.

"Your Majesty the Empress, we already have a rough plan in mind on how to get these people to confess. We can divide it into three steps, first like this, then like that, and finally like this. And for each step, we will divide it into upper and middle steps. Three strategies.”

rub! ! !
The two of them haven't finished speaking yet.

The guard next to him had already drawn a sharp silver knife.

"We'll do it now."

Now the two of them finally became honest.

After half an hour.

"Your Majesty the Empress, we've all been recruited."

Xu Ziling and Kou Zhong wiped the sweat from their foreheads and walked out of the cell in the back.

All the guards present were dumbfounded.

I'm really curious as to what method these two guys used to convince the ministers who had hundreds of guards working day and night to force confessions but failed to pry them open, and so easily confessed the crime that brought disaster to the nine clans.

Wu Mingyue was also very curious about this.

Facing the empress' doubts, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling just scratched their heads in embarrassment.

"Actually, we didn't do much. We just covered these people's bodies with honey, and then found someone to dig out the hornet's nest."

"Or soak it in a barrel full of rats."

"Just tickling the soles of these people's feet with goose feathers."

After hearing this, everyone couldn't help but twitch the corners of their mouths.

I have seen many living Bodhisattvas, but this is the first time I have seen the living King of Hell.

Sure enough, the person who Gu Changsheng likes is definitely not a simple charlatan.

But Wu Mingyue's eyes lit up. With their abilities, not giving them the position of Minister of the Ministry of Punishment was really a waste of money.

Wu Mingyue immediately issued the order.

"Today the East Factory and the West Factory are established. Anyone who is corrupt and disregards the king's law can be killed first and then reported. The East Factory and the West Factory will be responsible for the investigation."

As soon as Wu Mingyue said these words, the surroundings fell into dead silence and there was no sound.

This news is really shocking.

The two men who were prisoners one second, transformed themselves the next, and even set up two departments specifically for them.

Responsible for the internal affairs of the government.

Not only the guards present, but also the ministers opened their mouths in shock and could not close them for a long time.

But Xu Ziling and Kou Zhong were extremely excited.

Not to mention the official status of Dongchang and Xichang, just a qualification to be killed first and then reported later was enough to scare the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty.

The general was indeed right, the time of glory and wealth has finally come.

However, no one knew that the people Wu Mingyue trusted were not Xu Ziling and Kou Zhong, but only because they were recommended by Gu Changsheng, nothing more.
