Daming: My boss Zhu Yuanzhang

This Chen Su is really talented!

These things look scary. If they were really used on people, they would be even more terrifying than Zhu Yuanzhang's skinning.

Li Wei endured the discomfort and listened calmly to him explaining how to use these torture instruments. He nodded while thinking about whether to use these tools.

He has been exposed to values ​​such as civilization and harmony for more than 20 years in later generations. He can still accept the death of people in wars and executions for guilty, but it is a bit difficult for him to accept such cruel punishments and interrogations.

After pondering for a moment, Li Wei suddenly thought of a feasible solution.

"Well, not bad, you do these things very well, they are of great use to me!"

Li Wei patted Chen Su on the shoulder and said.

Chen Su was immediately overjoyed and congratulated: "Thank you for the compliment, sir!"

"Yeah." Li Wei nodded lightly.

The officials in the court were making a big fuss, and Li Wei did not dare to delay it any longer. He immediately ordered people to tidy up the imperial prison and make room for these instruments of torture.

In a dark room in the imperial prison, a large plate of one and a half meters made by Chen Su was propped up on a shelf, with a charcoal fire burning underneath. Next to it, there were several big fat pigs hanging, and in addition to these there were several barrels. Fresh pig blood left behind when killing pigs.

After the big plate was red-hot, Li Wei ordered someone to wash the prepared fat pig and put one end on it.

In a short while, the bottom of the black pig began to sizzle with oil and the aroma was overflowing. After a while, the meat underneath was cooked. Li Wei picked the better ones and cut them off with the pipa knives made by Chen Su. .

"Come on, let's have a taste."

Li Wei warmly greeted Lu Tang, Chen Su and others to the table. Sauces were already placed on the table for dipping.

Chen Su looked at the barbecue in front of him with a confused expression.

"Come quickly!" Seeing that they were not moving, Li Wei waved again.

Although Lu Tang was also puzzled, he felt that the Lord must have a deep meaning in doing this, but he didn't ask any more questions and walked over as he was told.

Chen Su opened his mouth, wanting to explain the correct use of his torture tools, but seeing Li Wei's enthusiastic look, he didn't dare to dampen his interest, so he could only reluctantly follow him to the table.

Due to the uneven heat, the roasted pork on this large plate was mushy on the bottom and undercooked on top, but there was still some edible space in the middle.

Li Wei was soaked in the sauce and slurping the taste, and he could only look at them with greed.

He has been fasting for three years and cannot eat meat yet.

After swallowing, Li Wei withdrew his gaze and ordered: "Bring someone to commit the crime."

Hearing this, the guard next to him bowed and asked, "Which one do you want to interrogate first?"

Persimmons need to be picked on the weak. Li Wei thought about those people who came in and begged for mercy, and said: "Let's take Liu Zhongzhi first."

"Yes!"

The guards were ordered to retreat and soon brought Liu Zhongzhi up.

Liu Zhongzhi felt uneasy as he looked at Li Wei and others eating and drinking.

Although he was a minister and a third-rank official, Li Wei did not exempt him from severe torture. Although he did not use cruel and inhuman torture tools like Chen Su, his body was already covered with scars at this time.

"Master Li, I really realized my mistake. It's all the fault of Zhao Ben. I just listened to his deception and misunderstood you. I followed him in writing a letter of impeachment. Please forgive me!"

Liu Zhong begged for mercy when confronted. They were sure that Li Wei was seeking personal revenge.

Li Wei waved his hand to interrupt him, and asked: "What I want to ask about is the murder of the emperor's grandson. If you bring it seriously, I will spare you."

Liu Zhongzhi was stunned: "This... I really don't know this."

Li Wei suddenly frowned and waved: "Throw him on the plate!"

"Yes!" The guard took the order, lifted Liu Zhongzhi up and dragged him to the roast pig plate.

Liu Zhongzhi shouted in horror: "Sir, please spare my life! I know, I know, this is all done by Zhao Ben!"

Li Wei raised his hand to ask the guard to stop, and continued to ask: "Oh, tell me, what did Zhao Ben do?"

Liu Zhongzhi was stunned for a moment. He didn't know what Zhao Ben did. He was just biting randomly in a hurry.

Seeing this, Li Wei waved his hand again, and the guard immediately dragged him onto the plate again. Seeing that he was about to be thrown up and roasted together with the fat pig, Liu Zhongzhi struggled and shouted: "I know, I know! Yes!" Zhao Ben and Zhang Zongyi worked together inside and outside!"

Li Wei asked the guard to stop again and asked: "How did they do it?"

"They...they..."

Liu Zhongzhi's mind was racing, and he racked his brains to make up a reasonable story for Zhao Ben and Zhang Zongyi. However, murdering the emperor's grandson was not something he could do casually. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't tell the story for a while. This is why.

"Sir, I...I really don't know." Liu Zhongzhi almost cried.

"Then where did you get the evidence that you used to impeach me, Ru Taisu, and the others?"

"It's Zhao Ben, Zhao Ben gave it to me!"

Liu Zhongzhi was quite certain about this matter. After Li Wei was dismissed, Zhao Ben summoned them to impeach Li Wei in detail.

Li Wei felt a little disappointed after hearing this. It seemed that Liu Zhongzhi really didn't know much, but from what he said, Zhao Ben should know a lot.

Li Wei was silent for a moment, then raised his head to look at Liu Zhongzhi, who was anxious and worried, and said with a smile: "Well, you don't need to be punished, but you have to make some noise to make others believe that you have been punished."

"Ah?" Liu Zhongzhi was stunned.

Seeing that he didn't move, Li Wei said coldly: "Throw him on the plate!"

"No, sir, I understand!"

Liu Zhongzhi hurriedly shouted, then his emotions brewed and he screamed loudly.

But what is fake is fake after all. Even after calling Li Wei several times, I still feel it is not miserable enough. "Sir, let the humble gang help him!"

Chen Su next to him cupped his hands and said.

Li Wei thought for a while, then nodded in agreement.

Chen Su stood up and came to Liu Zhongzhi, smiled, then grabbed his hand and pressed it on the iron plate.

"what!"

This time Liu Zhongzhi really screamed, the scream was heartbreaking.

Li Wei's eyelids twitched, but he didn't stop Chen Su from doing anything. Chen Su pressed his hand until the entire palm was almost cooked before letting go.

Liu Zhongzhi still screamed in pain after retracting his hand. Judging from the burnt appearance of his hand, he was completely disabled.

Li Wei took a deep breath and then said: "Tear off his clothes, cut off his hair, and then lock him up alone so that no one else can see him."

"Yes!"

The guard did as he was told, but Liu Zhongzhi was just holding his hands and wailing, and couldn't care less.

After a while, Liu Zhongzhi, who had his coat stripped off and his hair cut off, was taken away. Li Wei asked someone to trim the fat pig on the iron plate with a knife, and arranged it into a human shape. Then he put Liu Zhongzhi's clothes on it and put on his hair. Then sprinkled with pig blood, the fat pig suddenly turned into something like a human being. In addition, after roasting for such a long time, it was black and stained with blood, so no one could tell whether it was a human being or a pig.

Lu Tang and Chen Su looked at his arrangements and gradually understood.

Li Wei wanted to use this method to frighten the officials. If he was weak-minded, he would definitely not be able to withstand the situation. If he was really determined, well, I hope not!

After interrogating Liu Zhongzhi, he did not rush to interrogate Zhao Ben directly. Instead, he asked someone to bring Du Ze, who had also begged for mercy, to try the effect of this method.

Du Ze, like Liu Zhongzhi, was brought up with wounds all over his body and his clothes in tatters.

The big iron plate for roasting pork was very conspicuous in front. Du Ze saw it immediately after he came in. When he saw the burnt human figure on it and Liu Zhongzhi's clothes, he suddenly trembled all over and his face was full of disbelief. : "Master Liu?"

Li Wei specially wiped some blood on the corner of his mouth, turned his head and bared his teeth at him: "Hehehehehe..."

"you you……"

Du Ze was horrified, his whole body was shaking, his legs were weak, he raised his finger and pointed at Li Wei, and suddenly fell to the ground.

Li Wei's smile suddenly faltered: "Uh, are you fainting from fright?"

The guard responsible for picking up the person quickly came up to take a look, and then reported: "Yes, sir, he fainted."

"..."

Li Wei was speechless for a moment.

It seems that the effect of this method is quite good, but it is a bit too good.

"Wake him up!"

"Yes!"

Li Wei ordered, and the guard immediately poured a ladle of cold water on his face.

Du Ze shuddered and woke up. When he saw Li Wei's face, he was so frightened that he cowered back and hid: "Don't eat me, don't eat me..."

Li Wei rolled his eyes and shouted directly without explaining, "Tell me, how did you murder the Empress Huangsun?"

"I don't, I don't know..." Du Ze replied tremblingly.

"Then who gave you the evidence you used to impeach me?"

"It's Zhao Ben, it's Zhao Ben!"

Du Ze hid in fear, but thanks to the guards dragging him, he didn't escape.

Li Wei asked a few more questions, but what Du Ze said was very different from Liu Zhong's, and there wasn't much useful information.

After Li Wei stopped asking, Du Ze still muttered, "Don't eat me." He was so frightened that he felt sick.

Seeing him like this, Li Wei stopped asking further and sent someone to send him back to the cell.

Du Ze was carried back to the cell by the guards. Everyone was panicked when they saw that he was fine when he left. However, it only took a short time for him to become like this.

"Master Du, what's wrong with you?" Everyone asked Du Ze, who was shivering in the corner.

Du Ze opened his eyes wide in shock, glanced at him and said, "Master Liu, Master Liu was roasted and eaten by them!"

"what?"

When everyone heard this, they suddenly screamed and their faces suddenly turned pale.

No wonder, no wonder they heard Liu Zhongzhi scream so miserably just now, this Jin Yiwei is so cruel and inhumane, capable of even doing such a thing!

"No way, how dare they?" Some people were doubtful.

Du Ze stopped answering and just huddled in the corner shivering.

When everyone saw him like this, they suddenly panicked, and many people started shouting.

"Let me out, let me out!"

"I want to see His Majesty!"

"Help!"

There was a chaos in the cell. Everyone was shouting in panic. Other cells heard their movements and shouted to inquire about the situation. These people told them about Liu Zhongzhi being roasted, and the commotion immediately spread.

After Zhao Ben heard the news, he swallowed in disbelief.

At this moment, the guard responsible for the interrogation shouted:

"Zhao Ben came out for trial." (End of chapter)
