Rebirth of the Tang Dynasty's strongest consort

Chapter 327
Seeing the two guards kneeling on the ground, Cai Shaobing was startled for a moment, then quickly took back the soldering iron that was almost attached to Xie Zhongju's body.

Turning around and looking, the cruel official Cai Shaobing was really taken aback when he saw the person coming. The soldering iron in his hand fell to the ground, instantly igniting a piece of the reed used to absorb moisture in the torture room.

The two prison guards had already been scared out of their wits. Seeing the fire rising, they quickly got up and stomped on it with their feet. They worked hard for a long time before they completely extinguished the fire.

Cai Shaobing looked left and right, under the absolute rank, his wolf poisonous temperament disappeared instantly, and he wholeheartedly hoped that his eldest grandson Wuji and Xiao Yu would come to rescue him soon.

"Prime Minister Du, Ma Yushi"

Looking at Du Ruhui and Ma Zhou, Cai Shaobing bowed his hands and looked down guiltyly, obviously avoiding the sullen eyes of the two on purpose.

"Cai Shaobing! How dare you commit suicide?" Ma Zhou looked at Xie Yaohuan, who was almost in a coma, and thought that she was the confidant of Empress Changsun. He was so angry that he almost beat up this low-ranking subordinate, "You're nothing but You are a house servant, why dare to use severe punishment on criminals?"

Cai Shaobing is usually afraid of Ma Zhou, but now he is protected by his eldest grandson Wuji and Xiao Yu, how can he bow his head to Ma Zhou again?

"Ma Yushi, the next official is also under orders."

Cai Shaobing half-spoken, and the confidence he had built up was dissipated by an angry reprimand, so he didn't dare to be brave.

"Luo Hao!" Although Du Ruhui didn't know Xie Zhongju's real identity, but judging from Fang Yi's love companion's school boy's identity, how could this ancient sage not see Cai Shaobing's intention to beat him into a trick?

"Who gave you the courage? How dare you commit selfish punishment against the court?" After Du Ruhui reprimanded Cai Shaobing mercilessly, he turned to the trembling jailer standing aside and said, "Put the prisoner down soon. !"

The jailer was originally a low-ranking official, and now the lowest official saw the top prime minister, just like a mouse seeing a cat, bowed to Du Ruhui repeatedly, and together they opened the iron cuffs on Xie Zhongju's wrist and ankle.

Du Ruhui saw that Xie Zhongju was tortured to the brink of death, although he was very good at nourishing his spirit, but seeing that his nephew's alias was almost tortured into a trick, how could this Prime Minister Du, who was on a thief ship, hold back his anger?

"Cai Shaobing? A petty official? How dare an insignificant official commit suicide?" As he spoke, Du Ruhui wanted someone to drag Cai Shaobing out and reward him with fifty slabs to satisfy his hatred, but he still Before he could speak, he was interrupted by the sound of footsteps.

"I ordered him to interrogate Xie Zhongju!"

With a tone almost like a demonstration, Changsun Wuji and Xiao Yu walked into the execution room in unison, and stood in front of Du Ruhui and Ma Zhou, showing no signs of weakness.

"Grandson Wuji!"

"Du Ruhui!"

The two prime ministers in court called each other by their first names, Du Ruhui's hands trembled, and he pointed at Changsun Wuji, but he was speechless for a while, "You!"

"Xie Zhongju is suspected of poisoning and killing Concubine Xiao. I was ordered to preside over the case, so why can't I order my subordinates to torture me?" As he spoke, Changsun Wuji waved to Cai Shaobing, and after calling him to his side, he sneered: "I am going to recommend this person as the supervisory censor. The report has been drawn up and will be handed over to Long Live tomorrow. What? Is there anything wrong with his execution?"

Du Ruhui calmed down the anger in his heart, and after his thoughts were gradually smoothed out, he accused Changsun Wuji righteously: "Okay! You have formed a party for selfish interests and came to the Procuratorate! Even though you are the presiding judge appointed by Long Live, I am the same judge. It is also the presiding judge appointed by Long Live, and Ma Yushi, an official from the headquarters of the Procuratorate, is also the deputy judge. How dare you go over the two of us and torture Xie Zhongju privately? Do you want to have an argument with us in the Golden Palace tomorrow morning? Have a look. Is it your grandson Guojiu and Song Guogong taking the truth, or the two of us keeping justice?!"

As soon as this remark came out, the complexions of Changsun Wuji, Xiao Yu, and Cai Shaobing all changed. Du Ruhui's words made sense, and every word hit the guilty conscience of the three. Right now, Xie Zhongju was seriously injured and on the verge of death, and forced to extract a confession It has become a fact, who wins and who loses has long been a conclusion, why is there any need to go to the Golden Palace to argue about right and wrong?Moreover, Ma Zhou, as the supervisory censor, has the right to supervise civil and military officials and directly reach Tianting. The identity of the deputy chief judge instantly suppressed the arrogance of Changsun Wuji and the three of them by half.

"Didn't you and I not have time to discuss it with you?" Changsun Wuji felt wronged, and muttered, seeing that Xie Zhongju had no intention of letting go, he immediately had the intention of retreating.

"Cai Wenshu, take care of Xie Zhongju here, don't let other people collude!" The implication is pointing directly at Du Ruhui. Will do things sincerely, then turned around and said: "I will write the memorial now, and you can wait for the crown and belt tomorrow!"

Changsun Wuji rolled his eyes at Ma Zhou, and said coldly: "It's also to prevent someone from deliberately favoring He Zudao, obstructing and hindering the case appointed by Long Live!"

After finishing speaking, Changsun Wuji left quickly, while Xiao Yu waved his sleeves at Du Ruhui, gave Du Ruhui a hard look, and then gave up and left.

"How unreasonable! How could two senior ministers who were honored as dukes of the two dynasties do such indecent things as torture!"

Du Ruhui could raise his voice so that his eldest grandson Wuji and Xiao Yu could hear him, and when the figures of the two of them completely disappeared from sight, Du Ruhui cupped his hands and said to Ma Zhou: "Ma Yushi, Xie Zhongju was seriously injured. Also, please go and ask Guan Mutong to come and treat him yourself."

"I obey!" After Ma Zhou bowed his hands, he gave Cai Shaobing a hard look. The two of them just had a disagreement in their personalities before, and they didn't like each other. But at this time, Cai Shaobing did not hesitate to take turns paying attention to Xie Zhongju in order to make friends with powerful people. This move completely changed Knowing Ma Zhou's views on this colleague, his contempt for the "torture subordinates" intensified.

After Ma Zhou left, Cai Shaobing stood aside obediently, how dare he talk to Du Ruhui for a while, for fear that the old prime minister would get sick from anger, let alone the eldest grandson Wuji, or "the eldest grandson has a plan" He can't keep his head.

After Du Ruhui ordered the jailer to carry Xie Zhongju back to the single cell, after waiting for about half an hour, Guan Mutong hurried over.

Entering the prison cell, Guan Mutong dared not be negligent when he saw the book boy of "He Zudao" was beaten to death.

Guan Mutong tugged at his gray beard and murmured: "Xie Renpen's pulse is extremely unstable, apart from the severe trauma, he seems to have drunk some kind of poison."

"What! Poison!" Du Ruhui looked at Cai Shaobing, his eyes were filled with coldness, and he wished he could write a scripture to throw this sinister villain into the sky prison, and let him taste the power of the torture he invented.

"This old man is not talented and knowledgeable, and the illness caused by human beings is due to uncertainties. It would be better." In the middle of speaking, Guan Mutong thought of the true identity of "He Zudao", quickly shut his mouth, and then invited Du Ruhui outside the door to talk.

"The only person who can save Xie Zhongju's life right now is He Bangshou."

"What! You mean to let Fang Hezudao come to the prison of the procuratorate to treat illnesses and save lives?"

"Besides, there is really no second choice in Chang'an right now. If you don't hurry up and treat him, Xie Zhongju may not be able to survive tonight!"

"this."

Du Ruhui nodded and pondered for a while, finally entered the room and whispered a few words to Ma Zhou. After being entrusted, Ma Zhou had no time to rest, so he walked out of the procuratorate with Guan Mutong.

Standing at the gate of the procuratorate, Guan Mutong wanted to leave, but was stopped by Ma Zhou, "Mr. Guan, I will invite Fang Jun later, so I don't want you to dispel Prime Minister Fang's concerns, so why don't you go with me?"

"Okay, this old man has received the great kindness of He Bangshou's professor of medical skills, so I should help you with some small things."

After the conversation, the two walked towards Fangfu in unison, accepting that Guan Mutong was treating Fang Jun's old injury, and managed to hide the truth from Fang Xuanling.

When he came to the bedroom, he learned that Xie Zhongju was on the verge of death under heavy punishment. Fang Yiai's eyes were red, and he buried him deeply in his heart. The long-lost killing intent suddenly rose again.

Because of avoiding people's eyes and ears, the three of them waited in the room until it was dark, and then under the cover of Gao Yang, they planned to leave the house through the back door and go to the procuratorate to treat Xie Zhongju.

Before leaving, knowing that the culprit, Cai Shaobing, was also in the procuratorate, Fang Yiai pretended to be looking for something, but actually carried the dagger hidden under the pillow in his waist!
