Chapter 84 Unexpected Decision
After driving away the many noisy and annoying legs outside the yamen, Hou Qing was refreshed and felt quite satisfied.
It has been many years since he became a constable at Six Gates, there has never been such a comfortable moment as today.
More things are frustration, anger, helplessness, and powerlessness.
Although he knew that this matter was far from over, and those officials who suffered a secret loss for the time being will definitely make a comeback, he is not the kind of worrying person who can enjoy this kind of comfort for a moment. As for the trouble, I will talk about it when it is that time.
"The chief constable has almost been counted."
Just when Hou Qing was still sitting at the table, savoring the daytime situation, and imagining the shock and astonishment of the senior officials who looked down on him on weekdays when they heard their minions' return, a headmaster walked in with more than a dozen pages of paper.
"Oh, is that? Come and listen."
Hou Qing came to his senses, still having a smile on his face, shook his hand, and signaled him to read it directly.
"yes."
The constable obviously had already become accustomed to Hou Qing's "style" of doing things. Without any hesitation and difficulty, he began to read according to the content on the paper.
What is recorded on it is the interrogation records of the eyeliners who were caught at this day.
The ability of the Six Doors to force confession may not be as good as the Jinyiwei and Dongchang, which are terrifying with this, but they are much better than other yamen.
After all, Liushemen is a yamen composed of constables. The members of them not only come from all directions, but also are the best among all local yamen.
"Using torture" is the "skill" that the constables knew. These outstanding people who were transferred to the Six Gate naturally knew about it. However, for so many years, they have been summarizing the "rich" experiences in various places. If the methods of the Six Gate are too weak, wouldn't they be too sorry for their constables?
So, it took less than a day and almost everyone was recruited.
After Hou Qing closed his eyes and listened to his subordinates finishing reading all the content, the smile on his face had long disappeared.
Although he had long known that most of the eyeliners he caught this time had "original origins and roots", now after hearing his subordinates read all the confessions, he realized that he seemed to be a little too optimistic before.
Because he heard it from beginning to end, none of the people was from the official palaces of Yingtian City.
"How many of them can be sure of it?"
However, Hou Qing also knew that the big fuss today must have reminded these spies that there must be many people who want to use the names of these officials to hide their true identities.
"70%."
The detective looked at the last piece of paper and gave a number.
"Hosh!"
After hearing the answer, Hou Qing did not speak immediately, but fell into deep thought, and at the same time he kept lit up quickly on the table.
"Take all these people out."
After a long time, Hou Qing finally made a decision, took his finger back, stood up, and ordered.
"yes."
A dozen prisoners with disheveled hair were taken out.
Although they looked miserable, their clothes were still intact. Otherwise, they would be afraid that they would suffer in this cold winter night.
"I think you should know better in your heart than me."
Looking at these ten or so prisoners standing in front of him, either bowing their heads and not daring to look at him, with fear, flattery, or anger on their faces, but hatred in their eyes, just hidden good or bad prisoners, Hou Qing said without rushing, as if he was meeting an old friend.
"I also know that you must be resentful to me and the six doors. I will not blame you for this. Just as I said, you know in your heart why I want to arrest you."
"What the hell do you want to say?"
Finally, a prisoner with a arrogant look on his face seemed to be unable to stand Hou Qing's long-winded words and shouted in dissatisfaction.
Of course, for this sentence, he also paid the price of two constables who were escorted to him punching him twice in the abdomen without any mercy. He curled up like a big shrimp, and was still coughing constantly in his mouth.
"It seems that I look down on you a little bit, at least he doesn't know the truth in the words I just said."
Hou Qing watched his subordinates teach this thorny head who is ignorant of the current affairs before continuing to speak.
"What does Lord Hou want me to send to my master?"
As soon as Hou Qing finished speaking, another voice sounded, but this time, he was much more polite, and it seemed as if he was suppressing his excitement, and his voice was a little trembling.
"Very good. It seems that my vision is still good. Most of you still understand the importance and pride."
Hou Qing also smiled with satisfaction.
"Each one step back."
Hou Qing suddenly withdrew the smile on his face, glanced at everyone's faces, and said solemnly.
"I will let you leave quietly in the middle of the night, but accordingly, your master will not allow you to get involved in the matters of the remaining prisoners. You were arrested at the same time, stayed in the same cell with them for nearly a day, and were interrogated at the same time. I believe that you already know whether they have any problems."
"Mr. Hou is really willing to let me go?"
They had heard Fang Xiaoliang, who was taken out and brought back before explaining the situation, and they thought that Hou Qing was going to completely break up with their master this time, but they didn't expect that Hou Qing would be willing to let them go?
So for a moment, many people were a little unwilling to believe it, even though they had heard the meaning behind Hou Qing's words before.
After all, if Hou Qing had thought of letting them go from the beginning, why did he do that during the day?
"What, can anyone among you be willing to stay and be a guest?"
"Mr. Hou must think clearly. We are just servants. At most, we can only pass on Master Hou's suggestions to Master. As for whether Master will agree with Master Hou's suggestions, it is not something I can decide."
A prisoner standing at the back suddenly spoke, making everyone standing in front of him unable to help but turn their heads and look over. The prisoners even looked angry, not understanding why this guy was so honest, and even "kindly reminded" Hou Qing.
"I believe that all the adults are smart people and will definitely make the wisest choice."
Hou Qing looked confident, and seemed to be unwilling to worry about his "reminder" to happen.
