Chapter 654 Pull out the radish with mud

After living for most of my life, I can see all the crimes in the world in one day, and it is really unforgettable for a lifetime.

The victims looked confused, while Zhou You's men were dejected, as if the eggplants that had been beaten by frost were all wilted.

County Magistrate Zhang no longer cares, and his anger has long been gone. Now he is sitting aside with calm wind and clouds, drinking tea slowly without any worries.

Only Zhuang Rou leaned on the chair, took a sip of tea and moistened her throat. She chewed the tea leaves that she accidentally drank in her mouth, and continued, "Article 198, Zhou You tried to bribe officials, and gave money to local officials and yamen runners during festivals, ranging from silver to rice, flour, tea and meat, and wanted to make my Dahao Dynasty ruin the ant hole like a dam."

She glanced at County Magistrate Zhang. Although these people were already insensitive, they could not bully them too much. Zhuang Rou decided to be kind to them. After all, the yamen runners and her were colleagues. The county magistrate had to do whatever they asked him to do, and he had to give them a way out.

So she added a few more words, "The local officials and the yamen runners refused his bribery righteously, and Zhou You held a grudge and did evil under the banner of the government, trying to ruin the reputation of the local officials."

After saying that, Zhuang Rou felt that she had said this article very well, so she smiled at County Magistrate Zhang and said, "Mr. Zhang, what do you think of this article?"

County Magistrate Zhang was already calm. He would not send these crimes up anyway. Those who heard these words could not leave here. They could say whatever they wanted. It didn't matter what crimes they committed.

He replied calmly: "Very good, Master Zhuang says whatever he says, no need to ask the official, as long as you are happy."

"What's the point? Lord Zhang must be the master here. This prince consort is just a small help." Zhuang Rou said shamelessly, completely ignoring her since she sat down, she never asked County Magistrate Zhang to review it. It was all said by her next to her.

Whatever the person under trial said, she made up several crimes, and the charges were so strange that it made people wonder whether there were so many strange laws, she could not have made up it by her.

There are already 198 pieces, and I have cut Zhou You's head by just dozens of times, so I should have had enough fun.

County Magistrate Zhang asked exhaustedly: "Master Zhuang, I think it's almost done. Let's do this for now. The victim will temporarily live in Tianxiangya's residence and leave after the facts are found out. The others will be taken back to the yamen prison and deal with it."

"Sir Zhang, don't worry, this is 198 items. Just make two more items to make up for 200. It will save effort when reporting, and the integers sound auspicious." Zhuang Rou said with a smile.

Want to get two more?

County Magistrate Zhang exhaled a long sigh, "Just do what Lord Zhuang said, we will not review it if we have enough 200 yuan."

Zhuang Rou said in embarrassment: "Well, but I really can't think of it anymore. Who needs to give me some tips?"

"..." County Magistrate Zhang didn't breathe a sigh of relief. If you can't think of it, don't think about it. These two fewer crimes will not die!

Suddenly, Zhuang Rou pointed to a man from the victim and said, "You come out and explain the crime, maybe I will think of something else."

She refers to a well-dressed young man, who is very energetic. Although he is standing on the side of the victim, he is particularly conspicuous compared to the victims who seem to be begging for food.

Everyone looked at him, even if they wanted to pretend that they were not sure that they were themselves, the man had to raise his head and asked blankly: "I? I am the victim, I have never committed any trouble!"

"What are you making up? Zhou You has been busy arresting me these days. If you have time, you will pretend to be someone in the dungeon. If you really hinder him, you will have been killed long ago. How could you have someone like you who are dressed in clean clothes and are not hungry at first sight in the miserable." Zhuang Rou said with a blank look.

"I originally thought you were Zhou You's people, but when they saw you didn't make a fuss, you looked calm and no one showed that you knew you, so I guess you are not the victim or Zhou You's people."

The man didn't expect that he was just standing here with the victim, and he became so suspicious and was directly suspected.

But he could not show it on his face, so he could only explain in panic: "My lord is wronged! I am really an innocent person, a guest who came to stay. When the chaos broke out, I was caught."

"Because I don't know what it is, I didn't dare to say anything, which made the adult misunderstand."

Zhuang Rou smiled and stood up, "It seems that you don't want to confess your crimes honestly like everyone else, or report them to others. Then let you see the torture method I learned from the most cruel officials."

She opened a small iron tube on her waist, took out a roll from it, and spread it on the table. She saw that the roll was filled with long needles of different palm lengths and thicknesses.

"Let me see which one to use for you." Zhuang Rou chose the choice, picked the thinnest one, turned around and walked to the man to stop, "Is there anything to explain?"

Everyone didn't say anything. Anyway, it was not me who was going to be tortured. They all wanted to see if this female prince consort bragged or if she really had two tricks.

The man swallowed his saliva. Apart from the longer the needle, the needle was similar to the acupuncture needle. It felt nothing scary, so he decided to continue to pretend to be innocent, "Sir, I really have nothing to explain!"

"Okay." Zhuang Rou smiled, walked behind him, and stabbed the thin needle in his hand into the man's neck.

The thin needles that were long with their palms were penetrated halfway through, which made everyone's backs tight, so they had to pierce through them.

The man didn't know what Zhuang Rou did behind him. He didn't feel anything when such a long needle was stabbed into the back of his neck, and he was nervously waiting for the torture that was about to happen.

He heard the people around him breathing sound, and he couldn't help but look at them with some panic, but only saw fear in everyone's eyes.

Before he could react, a sudden sensation of pain spread throughout his body along his bone vertebrae, from the bone marrow to the flesh, and instantly it started to hurt. Even his internal organs were twisted and colic.

"Ah! Ah!" The man screamed and fell to the ground, rolling constantly, struggling desperately. His eyes were protruding, and the tendons and blood vessels in his body were bulging out one by one by one by one, and tears could not stop flowing wildly.

Anyone could tell that this was a pain in his life and death. It was just a small needle that caused him so much pain. Everyone looked at the dozen long needles inserted in the curl and swallowed their saliva with difficulty.

Zhuang Rou stood beside her, expressionlessly counting in her heart for ten breaths before she pulled out the long needle. The man instantly felt the pain that made him extremely painful and disappeared in an instant.

Although he had only had ten breaths, he felt that he had spent a few hours. He was already sweating profusely in the cold weather. The feeling of the huge pain disappeared made him feel extremely comfortable. He lay on the ground like a pool of mud. The pain just now seemed like a dream, but he definitely didn't want to endure it again.

"Do you have anything to explain or report now?" Zhuang Rou stood in front of him with a needle pinched, looking at him like mud, and showed a bright smile.
