The factory supervisor is really stunning

In the torture room of the East Factory, Wei Yu sat on an armchair and watched the factory's boss torture the servant Dexing.

Today is the third day that Dexing has been arrested in the East Factory. Chen Zhendong, who was in charge of interrogating him two days ago, first asked him to tell the reason for Erya's death so that he could avoid punishment.But Dexing said that he really didn't know why Erya died. They had talked together two days ago, and she was fine and fine.Seeing him push that he didn't know about this matter, Chen Zhendong naturally didn't believe it, and then said in a vicious voice that if he refused to recruit, then he would have to try the tricks in the East Factory.

Dexing was trembling with fright. Those methods of interrogating prisoners in the East Factory can be said to be notorious. Just hearing the names of the punishments would scare people to death.But he really didn't know why Erya died so well, he must be unwilling to confess, and he didn't know what to confess, and the prisoner Qianhu who was in charge of interrogating him in front of him didn't give him any hints. What will not be punished.So in addition to shaking with fright, he was also dizzy. After the torturer Qianhu threatened again and again, he finally lost control of his urine, urinated all over his pants, and passed out.

"Drag this useless kid down here, change your pants, and wait until I get back to the governor, and I'll try again tomorrow!" Chen Zhendong held his nose and waved his hands in disgust, letting his subordinates be happy Back in prison again.

In fact, he just threatened Dexing verbally just now.Because after Dexing was arrested, the factory superintendent Wei Yu personally came to order that Dexing was not allowed to be punished casually, nor was he allowed to induce a confession. This person is very important. His confession involves many people in the palace, so he must be told Tell the truth.

The governor said so, and Chen Zhendong followed this request.Unexpectedly, it was just a verbal intimidation, and Dexing peed his pants in a useless manner and passed out.We can only wait until we report back to the factory governor Wei Yu.The next day, when Wei Yu came to inquire about Dexing, after hearing Chen Zhendong's reply, he asked him to hit him with [-] sticks temporarily to see if he was telling the truth.As a result, after Dexing was beaten twenty sticks, apart from crying for pain and mercy, he still said that he didn't know about Erya.

On the third day, when Wei Yu came to Dongchang again, Chen Zhendong suggested that Dexing should be punished severely.Because he had seen too many stubborn and cunning prisoners who refused to confess after entering the Dongchang Prison, and would immediately recruit them once they were severely punished.Maybe the servant Dexing in front of him is also this kind of person, although he pretends to be timid, he is actually that kind of person.

Wei Yu agreed after thinking about it. In the past two or three years, she had seen many such people in the East Factory.To deal with this kind of person, if you want to pry his mouth open, you have to use torture.Otherwise, these people took chances and were fooled by them, and they would lose the reputation of Dongchang.Although Dexing seems to be very honest at the moment, and he can't die casually.But on the basis of preventing him from losing his life, and personally monitoring him to prevent him from causing serious problems, this punishment can still be used.

"Use the pins, three are enough." She instructed Chen Zhendong.

"Yes, Governor." Chen Zhendong bowed and agreed, and then asked the fans to get a copper box, which contained ten long needles made of fine iron, the needles were very sharp.

The punishment of inserting needles can be regarded as a kind of torture used in the interrogation of prisoners in the East Factory, but this punishment is relatively light compared with the more than ten kinds of torture in the East Factory, such as skinning and gut pumping, but it is also extremely torturing prisoners.Fanzi will use this long needle to prick the fingers of the prisoners under interrogation.It is said that the ten fingers are connected to the heart, and the pain of being pierced by a needle is so painful that people can't live or die.Many hard-talking prisoners who entered the East Factory were often recruited after three needles were inserted.Few people can survive ten needles, so Wei Yu ordered to use three.Three needles □□ fingers, she believed that Dexing should recruit something useful.The emperor is waiting for the result of the trial.It's already the third day now, and it can't be delayed any longer.

Dexing, who was tied to the wooden frame for torture, heard that Wei Yu said that he would use "pins" as a punishment, and saw Fanzi take out a copper box, then opened the copper box, and took out a needle from inside. When the long iron needle came, his face was already pale with fright, and he was sweating profusely.He knew that he couldn't bear this kind of torture, which was considered light in the East Factory.Previously, he had been biting and saying that he didn't know anything, and he was lucky enough to be able to protect himself. He is really innocent.

But at this moment, when he opened his eyes and looked at the sharp long needle with its tip white, he knew that if he didn't say something, he would definitely be tortured by this long needle and his life would be worse than death.

His face was pale, and he looked at the two fans who came over with long needles, shrunk his neck and hid.If he could, he really wanted to just shrink back into the wall.But there is a solid wooden frame behind, and behind the wooden frame is a thick bluestone wall, and he has nowhere to escape.

Just when one fan grabbed his hand and pulled his index finger out of his clenched fist, and the other picked up an iron needle and stuck it into his finger, he suddenly sharpened. He shouted loudly: "I'll recruit...I'll recruit them all...don't prick me with a needle..."

Chen Zhendong, who was in charge of thousands of households, grinned when he heard the words, and then leaned over to Wei Yu who was sitting on the armchair, and said with a flattering smile: "Supervisor, look, this kid is not so serious and doesn't tell the truth. The sour Confucianism is a virtue!"

Wei Yu nodded, and said to the two fans who wanted to torture, "Okay, take the needle away."

Then he turned to Chen Zhendong and said, "You ask someone to write a confession. After a while he confesses, let him draw a charge."

-

Wei Yu sat on the stool and went to Qingning Palace in the palace.With Dexing's confession, if the emperor asks, he can explain to the emperor anyway.Therefore, this can be regarded as the completion of an important errand.She was a little free in the afternoon, so she planned to go to Qingning Palace to meet the third prince and keep the appointment.A few days ago, she promised to meet him at his place whenever she had time, and help him appreciate an ancient inkstone.

Along the way, she put one hand on the armrest of the stool and rubbed her temple with her right thumb.Thinking about Dexing's confession in Dongchang torture room just now, he said that everything was instigated by Concubine Zhao Gui.Because Concubine Zhao and Concubine Xiao didn't deal with each other, he was asked to hook up with Erya, the little maid serving in front of the little princess of Changning Palace.Taking advantage of the friendship between the two of them from the same hometown, Erya was asked to set fire to the second princess by thunder that night, intending to burn the second princess to death.Later, it was found that the second princess had not been burned to death, so Erya threw herself into the well to die in fear.

All the people present who heard Dexing's confession didn't smile for a while after Dexing said this tremblingly.Chen Zhendong, who was in charge of thousands of households, swallowed a big mouthful of saliva.Although before interrogating Dexing, he also vaguely suspected that Erya's death was not only related to Dexing, but may even be related to Zhao Guifei.But after thinking about it later, he immediately denied his own thoughts, preferring to believe that Dexing caused Erya's death, maybe he wanted to get rid of Erya and find another court lady as counterfeeder, Erya couldn't think of throwing himself into the well up.Or maybe he hooked up with other court ladies, disliked Erya for interfering with his good affairs, asked her out, pushed her into the well and drowned.

If this is the case, as long as Dexing is recruited, he will be spared from the torture of Dongchang, and they can also confess to the higher authorities.Unexpectedly, Dexing confessed that Concubine Zhao Gui was the mastermind behind the scenes, intending to kill the third princess, and Erya was just being used.Seeing that the matter was brought to light, he threw himself into a well to find his own death.

If this is the case, then this case is serious.His Majesty's most beloved concubine Zhao Guifei in the palace, as well as the emperor's favorite jewel, the third princess Ji Jin, were involved.It is conceivable that when the confession is handed in, the emperor will definitely be furious, either blaming Concubine Zhao, or those who tried the case, saying that they tried the case indiscriminately and even framed Concubine Zhao.Anyway, this is serious.

"Dexing! Are you telling the truth? I want to make it clear to you that your confession is of great importance. If there are false statements, you will not be enough to die a hundred times!" Chen Zhendong pointed and drooped his head, as if his whole body Without even a trace of strength, Dexing, who was as motionless as a dead man, shouted sharply.

When he roared like this, Dexing's body trembled, as if he finally came back to his senses.He raised his head in horror, looked at Chen Zhendong, nodded blankly with loose eyes: "Really...really..."

In fact, he knew that if he didn't say this this time, he might die under the torture of Dongchang.He is afraid of pain and death.When the tip of the long needle held by Fanzi Dongchang touched the skin of his finger, he trembled violently, and immediately said that he was willing to confess.As for the words of the confession, he also made up according to his own speculation.In any case, these made-up nonsense seem plausible on the surface.Now that Erya is dead, there is no evidence for her death, and no one will jump out and say that what she said is nonsense.As long as he can avoid the punishment he will suffer in front of him, we will talk about how to die in the future.Ever since he was arrested in Dongchang, he knew that he had entered hell on earth, and it was wishful thinking to get out alive.Since it is death sooner or later, it is better to avoid the catastrophe in front of you and live one more day.

Chen Zhendong received Dexing's affirmative answer, and then bowed to Wei Yu who was sitting beside him and asked in a low voice: "Master, do you think this Dexing's words are credible? Do you want him to pledge?"

Wei Yu didn't immediately answer Chen Zhendong's words, but looked at Dexing who was tied to the torture rack with a pale face and pursed his lips.When she first heard that Dexing was willing to confess, she had a little hope that she would get some useful clues from him.He never thought that he actually confessed that Concubine Zhao was the mastermind behind the scenes, and asked him to ask Erya to set fire to the third princess, and Erya threw herself into a well to die when the matter was revealed.

Such words are almost believable to those who don't know the inside story of that night.But from her point of view, these words are full of loopholes and cannot be justified at all.What does this mean? If Dexing hadn't cunningly used such an excuse to deal with the interrogation, then he was innocent and didn't know the truth at all.

And if Dexing's confession is reported, it will definitely cause huge waves in the palace.If the emperor believed it, concubine Zhao would be in bad luck, and even the third prince would lose the qualification to compete for the crown prince.However, based on what she knew about the emperor, he was unlikely to believe such a confession. In that case, the Supervisor of Rites and Dongchang would be in bad luck.When the emperor was furious, he would definitely use them as a scapegoat and a shield for those who tried the case.The courtiers in the outer dynasty would even use this to say that Dongchang used to use torture to force confessions, which is why Dexing's absurd confession appeared, so Dongchang must be rectified.As the admiral of the East Factory, she must be the first to be reprimanded, and it is even possible to lose this position.

And, that's not all.Although the emperor didn't believe it and stood up for Concubine Zhao's mother and son, those Confucian officials and censors from the foreign courts would not stop there, and would definitely use this matter to attack Concubine Zhao's mother and son, especially the group of people headed by Chief Assistant Li Yizhi. He will definitely seize this opportunity to attack the third prince, so that he can become the crown prince on the second prince's bench.

After thinking this way, Wei Yu couldn't help but sneer in her heart, the opponent is really cunning.Whether the wronged Dexing recruits or not, it will pose a big problem for her, which is beneficial to the opponent.If she guessed right, the matter eventually pointed to the position of the crown prince.

On the surface, this kind of ending is beneficial to the second prince.This really made her have to think, could it be that the cowardly and incompetent second prince actually had someone behind his back to help him set up such a clever scheme to make him the new crown prince of the Great Xia Dynasty?
