Chapter 299: Return (5)
There was a torture beside the wooden donkey. She also knew this one and also read it in ancient books. She was most impressed by this torture instrument because she had watched it on TV in her previous life. She put her fingers in her fingers and then tightened it tightly. The government used this confession to female prisoners, which was a very cruel torture.
There are also whipping sticks, shackles, hand shackles, shackles, sticks, etc. hanging on the walls, which are all extremely cruel instruments of torture. If an ordinary girl comes in, she will definitely be frightened when she sees this situation. She will be like Chu Xinyu who has lived for two lifetimes and thinks she is brave enough, but when she sees these, she still feels frightened.
They were using these torture instruments to force her to confess, right?
Just as I was thinking, I heard two footsteps of varying depths behind me, and then I heard the prisoner say, "Mr. Wu, Lord Yu, the prisoner bring him."
Chu Xinyu turned around and saw Wu Wencheng wearing an official uniform and a man about thirty years old coming in. The man was also wearing an official uniform. He heard the prison head's name to him, he should be from the Ministry of Justice, and his position was lower than that of Wu Wencheng, but Wu Wencheng was very respectful to him. Does this person have another identity?
Wu Wencheng and Mr. Yu came in and sat in front of the trial table. Wu Wencheng sat on the front table. The prison head brought a chair to Mr. Yu and asked him to sit at the lower right side of the trial table.
"Miss Chu Wu, the case has changed now. Now someone accused you of instigating others to kill, and both personal evidence and physical evidence are there. As long as you draw a cover in this confession, you will not have to suffer any flesh and blood." Although Wu Wencheng stood on the side of King Jin, he was somewhat respectful to Chu Xinyu's attitude.
Chu Xinyu guessed that he also guessed that the prison chief would tell her the matter, so there was no need to pretend to be surprised, so he smiled indifferently, "I want to know who I instigated and whom I killed. Have you ever verified these evidences?"
Lord Yu walked around his hands, raised his eyes and glanced at Chu Xinyu arrogantly, "Miss Chu Wu, don't you want to confess your guilt?"
Chu Xinyu rolled his eyes in his heart and said, "I didn't do it, why should I confess my guilt?"
Lord Yu stared at Chu Xinyu. The expression on the woman's face had not changed since they came in, and she was calm and calm. If an average woman came in and saw various torture instruments in the room, she would be scared to death with blood. She was scared to confess after a few strokes. I wonder if she was really calm or fake calm, so she said: "It seems that Miss Chu Wu wants to try the things on the wall."
When Chu Xinyu heard this, he frowned, "You want to torture me? Do you want to betray me?"
"No." Wu Wencheng said in an official manner: "I will follow the normal case handling procedures. Although you are the emperor's personal enthronement of Shengping County, there is a saying that the emperor committed the same crime as the people. Now that people have complete evidence and physical evidence, it will be useless to deny it. Before coming in, I received the emperor's will. Once the truth is found out, I will punish it according to the law of the Xu Dynasty. I will not shelter the real murderer, but I will not wrongly judge anyone."
"Hmph!" Lord Yu snorted heavily: "What else can I do to investigate? The witness is terminally ill, but the testimony has been confiscated. You want to get rid of the crime and deliberately murder the witness, with the intention of destroying the evidence. Isn't this clear enough? Besides, the body cannot be stored in the charity house for too long, for fear that more people will be infected with smallpox. They have been carried to burn in the morning, but these testimony is enough."
After speaking, he immediately ordered the prison commander to give the testimony to Chu Xinyu.
Chu Xinyu was about to reach out and take a look. What kind of testimony was this? They actually wanted to use such testimony to criticize her for her crime. Unexpectedly, as soon as her fingertips touched the testimony, the prison head suddenly took over the testimony, tore it to pieces, threw it at her feet, and sneered at her.
Chu Xinyu was surprised at first, but soon understood, and looked at Wu Wencheng. Sure enough, he saw Wu Wencheng straightening his waist and then looking at her.
At this time, the prison head pretended to be surprised and screamed, "Why did you tear the testimony?"
"What's going on?" Wu Wencheng asked.
His calves were itchy just now. When he lowered his head and scratched his head, he didn't know what happened to them. But when he saw the testimony that Chu Xinyu's feet were torn to pieces, he seemed to understand, but he didn't understand, was it tearing me up by Miss Chu Wu?
"Miss Chu Wu tore the testimony." The prison leader complained first.
Chu Xinyu chuckled when he heard this.
Lord Yu raised his face and said seriously: "Miss Chu Wu, do you know that tearing off the testimony is a more serious crime."
"What sin is more than a higher level?"
Accompanied by a clear and unruly voice, Xiao Jingsheng walked in from outside casually, followed by Liu You, the left minister, and Xiao Jingsheng's smile was refreshing, and Liu You frowned.
Wu Wencheng, Lord Yu and others saw Xiao Jingsheng coming in and started to salute.
Xiao Jingsheng raised his hand to waive their courtesy. He stood beside Chu Xinyu when he came in, and his peach blossom eyes with a smile fell on Chu Xinyu's face, saying, "As soon as I came, I heard Yu Shin-jue tear off his testimony, and he was more guilty. It seems that Miss Chu Wu was accused of instigating others to kill others, which was not groundless."
Chu Xinyu turned his head, raised his eyes and shrugged at him, and smiled and said, "I can only say that if you want to inflict a crime, there is no reason to worry." These people clearly wanted to frame her and treated her as a fool.
He had a bright smile, no timidity or fear at all.
Lord Yu frowned and handed a look to the prison head. The prison head understood and said to Xiao Jingsheng: "Prince, these testimony and witnesses have been banned. Miss Chu Wu may have just been afraid for a moment and tore them up."
"Miss Chu Wu, you..." Wu Wencheng looked at Chu Xinyu, and a little cold sweat appeared on his forehead. Because he had distracted the gods, his testimony was torn, and the case became even more complicated.
Chu Xinyu said: "I did not tear the testimony. Whether you believe it or not, only fools will think of the stupid behavior of tearing the testimony."
Her words are very skillful. She said that only fools will "think" rather than "that they can do it".
Indeed, tearing up the testimony means you feel guilty. They thought that Chu Xinyu would definitely not do this, so they used the method of framing her and added another charge to her. There were only six people present. Except for Chu Xinyu and Wu Wencheng who happened to be distracted from other things, the other four seemed to be on the front line, and they all said that they saw Chu Xinyu tearing up the testimony with their own eyes.
Chu Xinyu understood that he could not tell the four of them with a mouth. Xiao Jingsheng and Liu You came in afterwards. Xiao Jingsheng said that the emperor had handed him over the case to assist in the investigation, and Wu Wencheng wanted to report the situation directly to him.
Xiao Jingsheng leaned into Chu Xinyu's ear and whispered: "You don't want to suffer from flesh and blood. Now it's best to admit the secret. I will take this case and will definitely give you a cleansing wish. However, you have to agree to this king with a condition."
While speaking, he blew hot air into her ears intentionally or unintentionally. Chu Xinyu tried his best to resist his nausea and smiled faintly at him, "No need."
"Are you really afraid?" Xiao Jingsheng frowned at her, thinking that she would agree to it when she made a request, after all, she had the right to decide her life and death now.
Chu Xinyu was not shaken. Xiao Jingsheng narrowed his eyes slightly. Since she was so stubborn, let's see how hard she was.
The prison guard next to him listened to his orders and took the execution in his hand. The other two prison guards also came over and wanted to hold Chu Xinyu down and punish her.
At this moment, Liu You shouted: "Ah, wait a moment!"
