"Zhu Hongsheng, your real name is Zhu Xie Cheng, right? Are you a Turk? "
In the prison of Taiyuan Prefecture, Wang Liaoyuan, Wang Yu, Dugu Feiying, and Li Tai were sitting on the same bench. Wang Liaoyuan slapped the table in front of him and asked Zhu Xie Cheng, who was kneeling on the ground in front of him.
This was a prison, so the conditions here were naturally much simpler than in the court, but no one cared about that. The reason why they chose to interrogate Zhu Xie Cheng in the prison instead of in the court was mainly … First, to keep it a secret, and second, to make it more convenient for the punishment!
After all, the torture tools in the prison were much more abundant than those in the court. If Zhu Xie Cheng refused to tell the truth, Wang Liaoyuan would immediately send someone to torture him!
This was not a place where "human rights" were concerned. First, this was ancient times. Second, this was a prison. Most importantly, there was a huge crisis lurking in Taiyuan City. Li Tai's life was in great danger, and Zhu Xie Cheng happened to be the only person Wang Liaoyuan had caught who might know the enemy's background. In this case, even if Wang Liaoyuan killed Zhu Xie Cheng, the civil and military officials would not hold Wang Liaoyuan responsible for anything, let alone human rights!
"…"
Zhu Xie Cheng looked up at Wang Liaoyuan unhappily and said nothing. Then he lowered his head again.
Wang Liaoyuan stopped breathing and then said angrily, "Humph! Now that things have come to this, what else do you have to hide? Do you still think that someone can save you? Don't forget that when you were taken away from Shuanren Mill, you were attacked on the way. This means that the person behind you wants you to die, not to save you! If you still want to live, then tell me everything you know. Otherwise, Kang Changan will most likely end up like you! "
In fact, Wang Liaoyuan rarely used harsh punishments when dealing with criminals. When facing Zhu Xie Cheng, he instinctively wanted to give him a chance to confess. That was why he said so much. Otherwise, if it was another official who saw this scene, it was very likely that the criminal would be punished severely.
As soon as Wang Liaoyuan finished speaking, Zhu Xie Cheng's body clearly trembled. He raised his head and looked at Wang Liaoyuan and the others. After hesitating for a moment, he stuttered, "If … If I tell you the truth, can I really live?"
"Humph! How dare you talk about conditions? If you don't tell me, do you think I won't kill you right now? "
Zhu Xie Cheng's words angered Dugu Feiying, who had just returned from patrolling Dragon Mountain. Dugu was ordered by Li Tai to bring people to Dragon Mountain to protect Mo Chui and the other Yanhuang College teachers and students. However, when he arrived, he found that everything was normal there was nothing out of the ordinary. the students had already started building and started testing the machines. Dugu Feiying, and the Imperial Army. Of course, he, he, and returned.
As soon as he returned, he saw Wang Liaoyuan interrogating Zhu Xie Cheng, so he followed Li Tai. His most respected brother had just been assassinated in the morning and almost died. He was still angry, but Zhu Xie Cheng was still stammering. Wasn't he trying to provoke him? How could Dugu Feiying tolerate this?
As he spoke, Dugu Feiying had already stood up. He pulled out his sword and was about to teach Zhu Xie Cheng a lesson.
Zhu Xie Cheng was scared out of his wits. He couldn't help but want to run away. At this time, Wang Yu grabbed Dugu Feiying and said, "General Dugu, please calm down. Why don't you give this guy a chance? If he doesn't tell the truth, then it won't be too late to beat or kill him!"
Wang Yu was the head of the Wang family, the provincial governor of Sui Province, and the emperor's son-in-law. In addition, when Dugu Feiying went to the Wang family's ancestral home to ask for help, Wang Yu didn't hesitate to send out all of the Wang family's forces to help Dugu Feiying find Zhu Xie Cheng and Kang Changan's whereabouts! Although they didn't find anything after a day of searching, Dugu Feiying had to accept this favor!
Therefore, when he heard Wang Yu's words, Dugu Feiying immediately stopped and glared at Zhu Xie Cheng fiercely.
"Hurry up and tell me! If you don't tell the truth, I'll cut you into pieces! Hmph! "
Dugu Feiying snorted and returned to his seat.
Wang Liaoyuan looked at Zhu Xie Cheng and said, "I promise you that as long as you tell the truth, I'll do my best to save your life. Can you tell me now?"
These two people were playing the good cop and bad cop. After a series of threats and promises of benefits, Zhu Xie Cheng's psychological defense was finally broken!
"I'm willing to tell you everything. I'm willing to tell you everything. I hope the provincial governor can show mercy and spare my lowly life!"
Zhu Xie Cheng seemed to have found a life-saving straw. He knelt and bowed to Wang Liaoyuan. After a while, he calmed down a little and slowly said,
"I … I'm Kang Changan. I'm from the Zhuxie tribe of the Turkic Khaganate. I've been doing business on the grasslands since I was young!"
