Jiaoruan Donggong: Your Highness, have you been reborn too?

Chapter 224 The Truth
"Pindao was ordered by Master Feng and Master Xu to claim that Guo'an Temple can cure dumb, and coaxed poor families to send their daughters to the temple, starve them for a few days, and then send them out to Master Xu."

"The old man taught these dumb girls. Lord Feng explained that these girls must be very obedient, and it doesn't matter if they beat or scold them."

"If someone comes to the temple to look for relatives, Pindao will lie and say that he is a Duhua and go away, or he will become a maidservant if he is favored by a nobleman. In short, he will prevaricate it first, and Master Feng and Master Xu will deal with the aftermath."

"I couldn't stand the fight, so I threw myself into the river. The two adults didn't care too much. They just came to collect people in the middle of the month. There should be more than fifty people sent here and there."

"There was a family that made a lot of trouble. They begged for their daughter at the gate of the temple every day. Mr. Xu sent people to kill all three members of the family. Because it was a remote farmer, no one noticed..."

The two spoke to each other, telling the frightening truth, Yun Ting tightened his fists, and scolded: "Xu Kang, what else do you want to say?"

His face was already pale, but he still refused to let go: "Your Highness... Both of them are framing the minister, and now there are only these two people's one-sided words, you want to convict the minister?"

"The concubine's room in the Jiedu envoy's mansion is enough to be a witness?" Yun Ting's face was extremely cold: "Xu Kang, if you don't confess, Gu will escort you back to the king's city today, send you to the prison, and let Dali Temple try it." !"

Seeing that Yun Ting was fully prepared, Xu Kang finally lowered his head: "I...just helped Mr. Feng, and he insisted on pulling me to participate. I didn't want to, but...just being an official in the same dynasty, no So good to refuse..."

"I have no time to listen to your excuses."

Xu Kang struggled to no avail, so he had to confess honestly: "It's... the reason is that Mrs. Feng accidentally got a concubine who couldn't speak, and said that she was very... timid, shy, and hesitant to speak. After the concubine's death, he discussed with his ministers and came up with this idea..."

"I tried to evade it in every possible way at first, but Mr. Feng said... the dumb girl is docile, and she can't speak, so she won't reveal the secret. It's also suitable to send it to Shangfeng, and he has acquaintances, so..."

The matter was revealed in its entirety, and Yun Ting looked at Xu Kang who was almost lying on the ground, trembling like chaff, and he was not at all pitiful: "Guo'an Temple has accepted more than [-] dumb girls, but Chenghuan Pavilion has dealt with them for five years. There are more than ten people, how did the rest get here?"

Xu Kang murmured: "They are all maidservants at home, some of them are attractive, just... move some hands and feet to make them dumb..."

Even Ming Jie and Mama Sun were stunned when they heard this, it made people shudder!

General Liang couldn't help but said: "A crime! It's a crime. They are all good girls. You have harmed people so far for your own selfish desires!"

He lowered his head and dared not speak, Yun Ting waved his hand and asked General Liang to take the two of them down, and there were only two people left in the room, Yun Ting continued to ask: "What else?"

"It's gone!" Xu Kang waved his hands again and again: "This meeting is really gone, Your Highness, I dare to swear to God, I have explained everything I know!"

"I didn't ask you about this, I'm asking you, the ins and outs of buying an official."

He choked up suddenly, his face flushed, and he was speechless for a long time. Yun Ting said coldly: "Xu Kang, you are abducting an orphan girl and disregarding human life. It is already a crime of beheading. If you are thinking about your relatives, you will immediately marry the orphan." Frankly, maybe they won't be implicated."

But no matter how Yun Ting pressed him, Xu Kang didn't speak anymore. Yun Ting's eyes flashed, and he suddenly said, "General Liang, bring the things in!"

The people outside the door moved in response to the sound, holding an iron bucket in their hands, which looked heavy. Xu Kang looked at them suspiciously, but General Liang said coldly: "Don't look at it, Mr. Xu. There are voles inside. You have been hungry for several days, if you put them into your sleeves and tie up the cuffs, within half a day, you will..."

Xu Kang's eyeballs almost popped out, staring at the wriggling thing, sweat dripping from his forehead: "Your Highness, you...you..."

"Gu heard this method from the previous court. It is said that it is specially used to punish the most heinous people. Now it is suitable for Master Xu."

Yun Ting's expression didn't fluctuate at all, as if he was talking about today's weather, but the more this happened, the more frightened Xu Kang became. up.

"Kangdang—"

Taking advantage of his unpreparedness, General Liang suddenly kicked hard on the iron bucket, and the voles immediately became fussy, screaming in their ears, Xu Kang's complexion was pale, and he suddenly fell to the ground, unconscious.

"Your Highness! He must be pretending, I'll wake him up now!" General Liang stepped forward and slapped him heavily on the face: "Hey! Don't pretend!"

After calling for a while, Xu Kang didn't respond at all. Yun Ting took a closer look, and finally said: "Take him down first, and we'll interrogate him when he wakes up."

"Yes, Your Highness."

At this moment, Yun Shen was sitting on the Liuhe chair, looking at the person opposite who was so busy, he frowned slightly: "Tell me, what exactly do you want Your Highness to do?"

"Tsk tsk." Chunyu Ling smiled: "It seems that the king really chose the right person."

"Without further ado."

Yun Shen said coldly: "You tried your best to arrest her, isn't it just to force His Highness? You guessed right, this person is useful to His Highness, what are your conditions? If it is suitable, His Highness will accept you .”

"Okay." He put away his teasing expression, and said solemnly: "This king wants the defense map of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and there is also the promise of the Second Highness. As long as you agree, you can take this person away at any time."

Sure enough!Chunyu Ling still refused to give up, Yun Shen was silent for a moment, raised his eyes and said, "If His Highness doesn't agree, what will you do?"

He seemed to have made a plan a long time ago: "This is the matter between the king and Princess Gong. If something goes wrong, we will sell her, or use her as a bargaining chip to talk to His Highness Prince Gong, and say There may be no surprises..."

Yun Shen smiled abruptly: "Heh, you're afraid that you won't be able to avoid Yun Ting, so how dare you go to see him? Aren't you afraid that he will reveal to you all the shady things between you and officials from Jiangsu and Zhejiang?"

"If it is from this king, I am afraid it will be a different situation." His smile remained unchanged: "It is not certain, His Highness Prince Gong is willing to cooperate with this king, and all the matters in Jiangsu and Zhejiang will be pushed to you .”

"you dare!"

"Why is this king afraid?"

He said unhurriedly: "Second Highness, perhaps you forgot about my king's methods. You learned all your strategies from my side. I think you are the most clear about my ability..."
