The court rod is a special torture instrument, generally made of chestnut wood, one end of the beating person is cut into a mallet, the outer iron sheet, and there is a barb on the iron sheet, as long as the stick is dragged down, the barb can tear off a large piece of belt meat, so as long as the torturer refuses to show mercy to the punishment of the court staff, generally thirty rods will die without worry.
When Li Zhaode arrived in front of the palace, he was even more overjoyed when he heard the Son of Heaven order to give him a cane, but he did not explain how many rods he had beaten.
With a "torture" order, the two Yulin guards picked up their big sticks.
Because in this era, the cane punishment generally played the role of punishment and humiliation, and few people were beaten to death, so the two Yulin soldiers beat them down with a stick, although they never left strength in their hands, but they never used the word "drag" to beat them down with a few rods, although Wang Qingzhi cried out again and again, his voice became more and more high-pitched.
Wang Qingzhi entered the palace to petition this time, and gathered more than 3,000 people, except for some people who had various relationships with the Wu family, the rest were idle men hired by him with money.
Li Zhaode saw it in his eyes, smiled coldly, and said to Fei Shengxuan, the deputy general of Yulinwei: "I never rub sand in my eyes.
Now that you have been ordered to be imprisoned, if you do not pay attention to it, I am afraid that it will not be possible to give an account to Ben today."
Zuo Yu Lin Wei is still on duty today, and Zuo Yu Lin Weilang will be Yang Fan, but Yang Fan is at home on leave because of his marriage, and now his deputy Fei Shengxuan is presiding over the affairs.
Fei Shengxuan knew that his man was small in the future and friendly with the Wu family, so he didn't dare to give a heavy hand to Wang Qingzhi, who was shouting for the Wu family, but since Li Zhaode said so, Fei Shengxuan was not merciful to his subordinates, and this prime minister was also not something he could afford to offend.
Fei Shengxuan said in his heart: "Anyway, this is Li Xiangye's order, if Lang turns around, if he is to blame, I just push it on Li Xiang, I just acted on orders, and he can't blame me."
Thinking of this, Fei Shengxuan glanced at the two Yulinwei soldiers who were waiting to be tortured, raised his hand, stroked his beard, and then put it downward, this is the meaning of big punishment, the two sergeants with big shoulders and round waists saw his movements in his eyes, and nodded lightly with almost imperceptible movements.
The first two sergeants took twenty rods and then retreated, and the two men, who had just received the signal, took their rods and strode forward.
Wang Qingzhi was beaten with twenty rods, although the injury was not serious, his buttocks had blossomed, and when he saw them retreat, he thought that the punishment was over, he endured the pain and raised his head, and just wanted to shout a few words, when he saw two sergeants with a big stick walking towards him again, and couldn't help but exclaim: "What are you doing, what are you doing?"
Wang Qingzhi struggled hard, but his head and hands were shackled, and he couldn't move at all.
The two sergeants stood beside him, one left and one right, and the sergeant on the left "whirred" hit down with a stick, dragged it down, and with a "snort", Wang Qingzhi's robe and pants were torn apart by the barbed hook on the stick, and it turned out that the skin and flesh were only soaked with blood, and immediately blood gushed out.
"Ahh Wang Qingzhi roared in pain, his facial features were distorted, he gritted his teeth and just wanted to scold Li Zhaode, but the sergeant on the right came down with another stick, and with a "snort", Wang Qingzhi's two buttocks were scratched.
These two sergeants, you stick to me, twenty sticks, Wang Qingzhi's lower body is no longer visible, his robe has been torn, revealing a bloody lower body, those two buttocks have been scraped into strips of flesh by the court staff, and the white bones are vaguely visible at the hips, Wang Qingzhi is already unconscious in pain.
Fei Shengxuan walked up to Li Zhaode and said in a low voice: "Xiangye, Wang Qingzhi has fainted."
Li Zhaode narrowed his eyes slightly, and coldly looked at the so-called representatives of the people's will who had already stopped clamoring for two or three thousand, but were just stunned, and turned a blind eye to his request, Fei Shengxuan coughed lowly, and said: "Xiangye, Wang Qingzhi is already disabled."
Li Zhaode didn't say a word, just turned his back, Fei Shengxuan bit his teeth, waved his hand vigorously, and the third team of torture sergeants rushed forward again.
"Puff Puff" The big stick hit Wang Qingzhi's body, making a dull popping sound, Wang Qingzhi's body was stiff, and it was only with the action of the stick that he would tremble, his eyes, ears, mouth and nose were bloodshot, and his eyes were open, but there was no trace of vitality.
"Poof" Another cane went down, and the sergeant dragged it with force, and one of Wang Qingzhi's legs was actually separated from his body, and he hooked it off with a stick, and the sergeant was unstable, grabbed a few steps back, and almost fell.
The crowd of onlookers let out an exclamation, and suddenly flashed backwards and retreated more than a foot away.
Fei Shengxuan took a long breath, turned around and hugged his fist to Li Zhaode and said, "Xiangye, the prisoner has died of anger."
"Hmm" Li Zhaode slowly turned to the colorless petitioners, pointed to Wang Qingzhi's corpse, and said sharply: "This thief wants to abolish my imperial heir, set up Wu Chenghei as the crown prince, and serve him alive, and beat him to death.
The people were so frightened that they retreated again and again, and those who had paid for it turned around and walked away when they saw that their employer was dead, and that they would not be able to get the money.
Li Zhaode looked up to the sky and laughed: "The so-called Tianxin public opinion, is there not even a corpse collector?"
Li Zhaode laughed and walked towards the palace, and those Yulin guards said to Fei Shengxuan: "General, what should I do with this corpse?"
Fei Shengxuan said with annoyance: "Find a cold mat and wrap it, wait for his family to recognize the body."
Go, bring some water, scrub the floor."
Xue Huaiyi took the two disciples of Hongyi and Hongliu and swaggered towards the palace gate.
Hongyi is his eldest disciple, and Hongliu is the most obedient and well-behaved, so he has become the most favored disciple around him, and Xue Huaiyi likes to take the two of them with him the most when he walks around.
When it was almost noon, Xue Huaiyi was about to turn towards the palace wall to the east.
You can also face the saint when you enter the front door, but to enter through this gate, you need to pass through Zhongshu Province first.
Therefore, when the prime ministers entered the court on duty, they all took this portal, and this palace gate almost became a special passage for the prime ministers.
Xue Huaiyi also walked through this palace gate back then, but because he met Prime Minister Su Liangsi head-on, he was arrogant and disrespectful, and was beaten severely by Su Liangsi.
Xue Huaiyi ran to complain to Wu Zetian, but Wu Zetian told him that he would enter the palace through the north gate in the future, and not to argue with the prime ministers.
Although time has passed now, his power is far from being comparable to the past, and it is impossible for any prime minister to beat and scold him like he did back then, but he will never leave this palace gate again.
Xue Huaiyi was about to turn along the palace wall to the north gate, when he saw a group of people fleeing with fear on their faces, seeing that they were all ordinary people.
Ordinary people would not easily come to the noon gate, and seeing that their panicked expressions were even more weird, Xue Huaiyi couldn't help but stop.
"It's terrible, Wang Qingzhi was simply divided alive."
"Yes, yes, this is worse than the five horses splitting the corpse, even if the five horses are splitting the corpse, just jump like that, and no longer feel pain, this is a stick and a rod to death" "Have you seen it, Wang Qingzhi's bleeding appearance is really afraid of ghosts, my scalp is still cold, you go home first, I have to go to Tiangong Temple to worship, I'm timid" "Wang Qingzhi" Xue Huaiyi touched his bald head and became suspicious, of course he knew who Wang Qingzhi was, this person had asked for Wu Chenghe's life three times and five times, and he had already made a fuss to the government and the opposition, he entered the palace today to be a lobbyist for Wu Chenghe, and when he heard that Wang Qingzhi was beaten to death, how could he not be suspicious.
"Hongroku, you go and inquire and see what's going on" Xue Huaiyi commanded, Hongliu hurriedly chased after him, grabbed the shoulder of a person who fled in a hurry, as soon as the person turned his head, Hongliu put the copper coin into his hand, and then the two walked out together like old friends who had known each other for many years.
After a while, Hongliu ran back quickly, and said to Xue Huaiyi: "Master, the disciple has inquired clearly.
That Wang Qingzhi entered the palace to face the saint, urging the emperor to abolish the crown prince and set up the king of Wei instead, the emperor was furious, and asked someone to take him out of the palace gate and beat him to death.

"Ahh As soon as Xue Huaiyi heard this, his face changed.
In the past two years, Wu Zetian has summoned him to the palace to sleep much less than in previous years, Xue Huaiyi didn't know that Wu Zetian had a new favorite in the palace, and thought that Wu Zetian was old, and he was not as enthusiastic about the bed as before, but no matter what the reason, his favor for him was not as good as before, so Xue Huaiyi's confidence was no longer so sufficient.
"Wang Qingzhi's persuasion was actually killed, but the emperor has made up his mind, and he doesn't want to make the nephew of the Wu clan the prince at all, so I will come this way."
Xue Huaiyi thought all the way, and walked slower and slower.
He didn't believe that because of his words, Wu Zetian would be able to execute him, but offending Tianyan would make Wu Zetian disgusted, and it was inevitable to touch his nose.
If you don't speak for Wu Chenghe, you will accept all the gifts from others, and you will change hands to do favors, and you can't retreat, how can this be good?"
"Master, you have something on your mind" Hong Liutou walked forward, suddenly felt that the master's footsteps slowed down, turned his head to look, and saw Xue Huaiyi rubbing his bald head with his palm in a circle, with a worried look, Hong Liu saw it, and knew that Xue Huaiyi must have something difficult to decide, so he quickly stopped and asked.
Xue Huaiyi muttered to himself: "Damn, Lao Tzu has fallen for Wu Chenghei's calculations." ” Hongyi also hurried over and asked, "Master, what's wrong?"
Xue Huaiyi said: "Wu Chengsi said to the Sprinkle family, the emperor has long had the heart of easy storage, but he is suffering from the prince's fault, and he doesn't know the intentions of the hundred officials, so he asked me to say a few good words for him in front of the emperor, how did Lao Tzu know that what he said was true or false, so he promised to come down, and today the emperor punished Wang Qingzhi's staff to death, which is clearly to tell the world that there is no easy storage heart."
If the Sprinkle family doesn't know what to do, and continues to speak for Wu Chenghei, it will inevitably displease the emperor, but if he doesn't speak for him, the Sprinkler family gifts are all accepted, how to regret it" Hongliu's eyes rolled, he thought about it, and smiled nonchalantly: "Master, what's this, every time the master enters the palace, the emperor summons him alone, anyway, there is no one around, who knows what you said, what you didn't say, let's come back and just say that we have spoken for him, I don't believe that he Wu Chenghei dared to go to the emperor to confirm" "This" Xue Huaiyi pinched his chin and said: "This seems a little unkind."
Hongyi: "Master, if you want to say that it is not kind, it is also Wu Chenghe's calculation first, what do we have to worry about?"
Xue Huaiyi said wistfully: "Well, it's good that he is not kind, so the Sprinkle family is not kind."
Hongyi and Hongliu said in a row: "Yes, the master is wise" Xue Huaiyi laughed, waved his sleeves and said, "Enter the palace" To be continued:
