I have a role in the heavens
Chapter 170 Torture
"I told you that I stayed overnight on Miss Si Lili's flower boat. Naturally, only Miss Si Lili can testify!" Fan Xian was very confident that Si Lili could help him cover up, because when he went back at night, he discovered Si Lili was not intoxicated by her medicine at all, she was just pretending to be comatose, so her identity must not be simple, and her identity as an oiran must be her cover, so the two of them can be considered to have leverage on each other. In order not to reveal his identity, Si Lili will definitely help him prove it.
"Pass it to the manager!" Mei Zhili ordered to the government servants in the hall.
"Here!" Several government servants came out, bowed and left with fists in hand.
. . . . . .
"Si Lili, did Fan Xian stay overnight on your flower boat last night and never went out?" Mei Zhili glanced at the two princes again and asked Si Lili directly, wanting to know whether Fan Xian told him that he had not Enter the inspection institute with Teng Zijing.
"Sir, the young lady was indeed with Mr. Fan last night. Mr. Fan never left the flower boat." Si Lili glanced at Fan Xian and sighed inwardly. He knew that he had to help Fan Xian today and only hoped that Fan Xian can accept this favor.
"In this case, someone has indeed wronged Fan Xian!" Mei Zhili said softly.
"Wait a minute, how can you believe the words of a prostitute? Such people should be severely punished, otherwise it will be difficult to hear the truth!" The prince saw that Mei Zhili wanted to let Fan Xian go, so he immediately stopped him and raised the objection. Si Lili carried out severe torture and torture to extract confessions.
"This?" Mei Zhili looked at the prince with some embarrassment, then turned to look at the second prince, wanting to see their reactions.
Mei Zhili saw that the prince was determined to do this, and the second prince had no intention of stopping him, so he just went with the flow and said, "Let's be punished."
"Here!" the Yamen servant responded and took out the torture instruments.
"Si Lili, did you remember anything? Did you see this instrument of torture? Under three trees, there is nothing you can't ask for!" Mei Zhili watched as Si Lili asked her again for confirmation of Fan Xian's whereabouts last night.
"Everything the little lady said is true!" Si Lili looked at the clamping stick in fear. She knew that if she changed her story now, she would offend both parties. Then she would have to go to the dark side and resist the punishment. He can also gain Fan Xian's gratitude and make himself famous even more.
"If you talk back, you'll be punished!" Seeing that Si Lili didn't change his words, Mei Zhili directly ordered the Yamen servant to take action.
"Here!" Two yamen servants came to the manager with instruments of torture. He reached out and separated Si Lili's hands and put them into the clamping stick. The two of them tightened the clamping stick on both sides.
"Ah!!!" Si Lili groaned in pain. After all, his fingers were connected to his heart. This punishment could be called torture.
Clamp torture, also known as zan torture, is a form of torture used on female prisoners. Finger-twisting is a punishment of pinching the prisoner's fingers, so it is also called finger-twisting. It is a method commonly used by the government to extract confessions from female prisoners.
"Si Lili, I'm asking you, have you ever lied, or have you thought of anything else!" Mei Zhili continued to question Si Lili.
"Everything Lili said is true!" Si Lili's face was covered in cold sweat, and the muscles on her entire face were deformed in pain. She was enduring tremendous pain.
Fan Xian felt a little guilty when he watched Si Lili being tortured. Si Lili suffered this misfortune because he had the handle on her, and he was also the torturer.
"Continue the torture!" Mei Zhili ordered angrily.
The officials tightened the torture instruments even harder.
"Ah!!!" Si Lili felt that she was worse off than dead. The intense pain filled her mind. The pain caused her entire face to become deformed, and it no longer looked as beautiful as before.
"Si Lili, I'm asking you again, do you have anything new to say?" Mei Zhili's voice came here. At this time, Si Lili was already a little confused, but he still shook his head firmly. He shook his head, indicating that he had nothing more to say.
"Torture again!" Mei Zhili was already in a difficult position at this time. The prince's gaze made him restless, so he could only continue to torture. He must pry open Si Lili's mouth and let her retract her confession. Only in this way can a gap be opened and things can go smoothly. It's okay to keep going.
"Stop!" Guo Baokun slowly pushed through the crowd and came to the court. He came to stand next to Si Lili and waved to the government officials who were inflicting torture to retreat.
The two Kyoto government officials looked at Guo Baokun with some embarrassment and looked to Mei Zhili for instructions on whether to step down. In the past, Mei Zhili would have given Guo Baokun this face and favor, but now the situation on the court was no longer within his control. I can only look at the prince and hope that the prince will say something.
Guo Baokun looked at the situation in the hall and naturally understood that the old guy Mei Zhili was definitely unwilling to come forward. He turned his eyes to the prince, raised his hand and saluted, "I wonder if the prince gives Guo this face?"
The prince looked at the calm Guo Baokun, but he couldn't help but feel a new fear. He still knew who Guo Baokun was. If he didn't give him this face, he would definitely punish the prince in the court with the imperial ruler. Thinking of this, the prince unconsciously looked at Guo Baokun's sleeves.
Guo Baokun glanced at the prince and knew what he was looking at, so he deliberately exposed the ruler in his long sleeves, just in time for the prince and the second prince to see. The two princes' pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly, and their palms unconsciously felt pain.
"Scholar Guo's face must be given, so please remove the instruments of torture." The prince said to Mei Zhili with a calm face.
"Here!" Seeing His Royal Highness the Crown Prince speak, the two government officials immediately took the torture instrument off Si Lili's fingers.
"Yeah!" Si Lili's fingers were already a little bloody. When the torture tool was removed, she would feel excruciating pain if she touched her fingers. Her whole face looked pale and covered with cold sweat, and the hair on her forehead was sticking tightly. The whole person looked pitiful and exhausted.
Guo Baokun looked at the people present and was a little annoyed. No matter what the reason was, everyone was bullying and forcing a weak woman like this. They couldn't be considered good people. Even Fan Xian was a bit too much. He took responsibility for one person's actions and used the excuse to blackmail someone. The weak woman lied for herself and watched her being tortured for herself, but she did not do anything, which made Guo Baokun angry.
"A room full of seven-foot-tall men bullies a weak woman. Such behavior really brings shame to Daqing!" Guo Baokun was really angry and couldn't help but sarcastically said to those present.
The prince and the second prince had a hint of anger on their faces, but they suppressed it immediately and pretended to be nothing.
Fan Xian had a look of guilt on his face, and was a little ashamed to look at Guo Baokun. He unconsciously covered his face with his hands. It seemed that he was not as cold-blooded as the others.
Only Mei Zhili, an old fox, had been in the officialdom for many years and had lost all moral integrity. He had a smile on his face and didn't care about Guo Baokun's sarcasm at all.
