The face shook, Ming Lan's eyes were dizzy by the glare reflected by the square jade seal in front of him. +++All Tanmei novels: www.sto123.cc网o
"presumptuous--"
His heart was furious, and he shook his head fiercely, twisting his venomous eyes, and swept across Leng Qingtang viciously:
"This governor can also be regarded as a second-rank official of the court. How can you be so insulted by your men?"
Beside him, Father Bai shook his head in disbelief, and yelled to the man high above the clouds:
"Supervisor Leng, you, you are deliberately embarrassing our family!"
Leng Qingtang looked down with a smile, her eyes cold as ice:
"The Governor had something to say beforehand. Since the Governor of Ming can't bear the seal of our ceremonial supervisor, he has no real intention to save people. Come, take the kneeling people to the violence room as many as possible, and wait for the Governor to send him down."
Dongchang Fanwei led his orders in unison, rushing to the center of the courtyard, dragging the eighty internal officials and Gong E, pushing them into the row houses on the east and west sides of the courtyard.
There are 26 rooms in these row houses, which are the violence rooms used by the li supervisor to punish criminals.
No matter how strong the temperament of those people are, few of them are able to come out again after entering the airtight small black houses like pigeon cages.
These eighty men and women also knew how powerful the violence room was. Some were crying miserably and wailing all the way they were forcibly dragged into the violence room.
If it weren't for this scene to be performed under the blue sky and white sun, it would really make people mistakenly believe that they have broken into the of Abi.
Duan Shaochun, the maternity supervisor, sat down on the edge of the bench, and a pool of liquid dripped from under him. Because he was too frightened, he actually peeed his pants on the spot.
The remaining thirteen people were also dull and trembling like chaff.
Leng Qingtang glanced down contemptuously, raised his eyebrows, and raised his lips:
"Since Grandpa Bai came to our ceremonial supervisor today, this superintendent will not let you go in vain. How about staying and watching the punishment with this superintendent?"
Father-in-law Bai trembled slightly, his tongue was silent.
Leng Qingtang pursed his lips and smiled, and said:
"Whoever imposes a staff on the inner servant will receive the sentence immediately!"
Amidst one after another begging for mercy, the eunuchs in charge pushed the 14 offenders back on the benches, then raised the iron-clad sticks in their hands and swung and fell fiercely...
Soon, bright red surged in the courtyard, and the smell was filled.
Under the corridor, the chiefs of the internal officials were palpitating, their legs were weak, and their complexions were not correct. No one dared to look at the center of the courtyard. They were all wet with cold sweat. Net o
The stopped swinging his club and bowed before the corridor:
"Supervisor Bing, the internal servant superintendent Duan Shaochun can't stand the sentence, and has died."
Duan Shaochun's penalty was "Yizhanghong".
The so-called one zhanghong is to hit the victim's waist with a big stick. The lumbar spine is the most vulnerable part of the human body, and the tortured person will generally die of broken bones within a few strokes.
Sure enough, Duan Shaochun, Su Rili's all-rounded and exquisite man, half-closed his eyes after being hit by two eunuchs in charge with left and right sticks, and his eyes were filled with gurgling blood, reaching out to Minglan for help. He lost his energy and drooped softly.
Minglan stared blankly at his Gan'er and swallowed like this, her eyes felt painful, and her heart felt like a knife.
At this time, another stopped his hands, turned and bowed to Leng Qingtang:
"The slave is incompetent. I just counted the number of rods in a mess. Now I don't know how many rods have been sentenced, and I ask the governor to be forgiving."
"What a big deal..."
Leng Qingtang smiled wickedly, his gleaming eyes fell on Minglan's sweaty face, intentionally or unintentionally, and then he waved his hand casually, saying:
"Be more mindful and count the sticks when you get confused!"
"Yes."
The in charge gave a vicious promise, got up and continued to dance the stick.
Secretly humming, the gentle smile always has a trace of hideousness, Leng Qingtang turned his eyes to look at the silent father-in-law Bai.
Seeing that he was shocked and kept wiping the sweat on his forehead with his wide sleeves, he knew that he was frightened by the scene that was horrifying everywhere.
In any case, always give this eventful a decent step.
"President Bai, this governor always knows how to do things, this time will not make you two embarrassment. When he goes to Yongning Palace, the Japanese governor will definitely explain the matter to the imperial concubine.
In addition, there have been several cases in the East Factory recently, and I believe that the empress is also interested in listening to him telling him something. "
Father Bai was shocked, his eyes widened and looked towards Leng Qingtang with an unknown smile.
As the in charge of Yongning Palace, father-in-law Bai did not know that among the cases that Dongchang was investigating, there were several files that were inextricably linked to the Wan clan.
Leng Qingtang dared to say such words to him today, showing that it was a hint and a threat. o
Father Bai knows who is more important to Wan Yuyao than Minglan of the Wan clan.
He sighed helplessly, he shook his hands and shook his hand at Leng Qingtang on the cloud steps one by one:
"Supervisor Leng has said so, our family dare not stop it anymore. If this is the case, our family will return to Yongning Palace for life and leave!"
Looking at Minglan with cold eyes, Bai Gonggong went away.
Leng Qingtang held his hands and raised his feet, steadily walked down the marble steps, and walked to Minglan with a smile.
Xiao Xiaoshen had already handed the big seal of his palm to an attendant of the ceremonies, holding the handle of the knife at the right time, a pair of sharp eyes, like an eagle, stared at Minglan and the Xichang beside him.
As long as those people dared to be unfavorable to his superintendent, he immediately waved the Xiuchun knife, killing the offender on the spot.
Leng Qingtang's lazy eyes low, looked at Minglan's left hand that was hidden by the deerskin gloves, and laughed mockingly:
"The governor of the Ming despised the dignity of the director of the ceremonies, repeatedly obstructing the governor to punish the internal officials, and wanted to forcibly remove the criminals.
Now that they have broken the law, does the governor of Ming want to be alone? "
Minglan was speechless, staring at her complacent opponent, her angry eyes split every inch.
Leng Qingtang curled her lips and smiled, coldly bidding aside:
"Xiaoshen, the governor of Ming is inconvenient, come and help him."
"Leng Qingtang, you are going to avenge your personal revenge and kill the Governor!"
Without waiting for Xiao Xiaoshen to come over, Ming Lan clenched his fist tightly, turned his hateful eyes at the man with a handsome face and a cold smile, and asked decisively.
"So what?"
Leng Qingtang replied slowly, and took another two steps forward. His body was only separated from Minglan by one finger, and his voice was so low that only him could hear him clearly:
"Minglan, you will never do evil. If you let you go today, the governor is afraid that he will not be able to stop Jiang's head in the spirit of the sky, to Yuan Dan's head who is paralyzed on the sick bed, and even to Yun Xi who is still missing. !"
Minglan's expression was startled, his expression suddenly changed, and instead of anger, he sneered:
"You said you couldn't help but Gu Yunxi? Leng Qingtang, you are finally a little self-aware!
You should be aware that at this time you are in charge of the Superintendent of Rites, and being able to stand here and be proud of the governor and the inner officials of the house is all thanks to Gu Yunxi! "
Seeing Leng Qingtang suddenly raised her eyebrows, her body fixed in place, Ming Lan pulled her lips numbly, and raised a cold and desolate smile line:
"You have done things that others don't know, but you can't hide it from the Governor. You always love her and protect her, but when your life is at stake, you finally choose to take care of yourself and abandon her. The funny thing is that she just believes in you.
Governor Leng, Leng Palmyin! You use the life of Gu Yunxi to exchange your power to regain control of the palace's inner court. So, what qualifications do you have to yell at the Governor? ! "
After finishing speaking in one breath, Ming Lan suddenly felt pain in her eyes, and her chest became dull and unbearable.
The gloomy eyes wandered freely among Leng Qingtang's stupefied five sense organs, he breathed a little relief, Ming Lan eyes brightened again, and continued:
"If you tried to rescue Gu Yunxi earlier that day, instead of planning how to restore power to deal with Xichang and deal with my Minglan, how could your subordinates become physically disabled, and how could Gu Yunxi's disappearance today?
Leng Qingtang, what you are doing at this time is just buying peace for your conscience. Of course, even if you kill the governor and the ninety-four internal officials, your Gu Yunxi will never come back—"
"..."
Leng Qingtang's handsome face twitched fiercely, and immediately felt that countless sharp blades in his heart swept across his body with bursts of heartache.
Minglan's cruel accusation can be said to be right in his heart, and Yunxi's disappearance is still a knot that Leng Qingtang can't let go of.
After a while, Leng Qingtang trembled uncontrollably, with bloodshot eyes, and weakly said to Ming Lan:
"Don't think that saying this will let the Governor let you go."
Minglan sneered, staring contemptuously at the sad Leng Qingtang:
"No! I am confessing punishment for her! I think I am not a good person, but I don't have your hypocrisy. Leng Qingtang, I really despise you."
After resolutely speaking, Ming Lan turned to the center of the courtyard under Leng Qingtang's stagnant eyes.
Raising his head, Ming Lan squinted at the sun hanging high on the blue sky, and smiled freely:
"Little wild cat, I will pay you back what I owe you!"
Dispelling the Xichang who had come to stop him, Minglan knelt in front of the bloodstained robes, took off the black yarn net cap, and said calmly to Xiao Xiaoshen:
"Do it."
Leng Qingtang walked up the cloud steps step by step, and suddenly felt that his feet were soft, and hurriedly supported the grand teacher's chair with his hands to support his soft and weak body.
His world was suddenly silent, and he could not hear the noise of execution and howling.
His complexion was sour and gloomy, and his handsome facial features were deformed because of this indescribable pain.
Leng Qingtang slumped back, gritted his teeth and refused to release a sound, but couldn't bear the smell of freshness from his throat, and the corners of his mouth overflowed with redness between his mouth.
His heart was already full of holes, and he really didn't taste the pleasure of revenge at all. On the contrary, the heart-wrenching pain became more intense.
After a long time, the cruel and ruthless punishment ceased.
Fourteen cold corpses were lying on the benches. A group of torturers propped one end of the big stick on the brick floor, holding the other end and wheezing.
Xiao Xiaoshen also stopped his hand there, spreading his palms and looking at the blood stains on his ten fingers, his face was completely expressionless.
Minglan's cheeks were purple and swollen, and his mouth was full of red blood. Three teeth were knocked out by Xiaoshen with a strong palm.
He stumbled to his feet, pushed away and helped his men, staggering under the cloud platform.
With a mouthful of blood, Ming Lan slowly raised her head, tried to focus on the blurred vision, looked at the back of the decadent man beside the Grand Master's chair, smiled weakly, and said softly:
"Leng Qingtang, to be honest, I don't want to fight with you anymore. Since the two factories have fought, what have you lost and what have I gained? Who wins and loses, or both loses?"
Leng Qingtang was heartbroken, but when he turned around bluntly, he saw Minglan House slowly exiting the courtyard crookedly.

The sunset is on the west hill, and the night is thick.
The dark and wide cold palace stands in a cold and bleak atmosphere. A faint yellow light came out through the broken corner of the wall, and it was caged in the half-side body of a dark shadow.
Behind the wall, a female voice came in a low voice:
"It's really unexpected that an ordinary woman will lead things to the two factories with great grievances. What makes this palace even more stunned is that the Xichang factory seems to have moved the girl sincerely. Simply she is not in the deep palace, otherwise she would not be kind. generation."
"In your opinion, who actually intervened and robbed this woman?" The shadow on the other side of the wall suddenly asked.
The female voice across the wall sank for a moment:
"My palace has no clue."
"If that person is an opponent, what shall we do?"
"Even if the opponent, what he did is aimed at the East and West factories, and temporarily does not threaten you and me. We only need to sit still and watch the tigers fight."
