Chapter 1304 Everyone Wants to Kill Zheng Qianming
Zheng Qianjia was a ruthless person. She quickly raised her hand and slapped herself four times.
He then said sincerely, "This junior thanks Uncle Qin for his guidance. What you say is absolutely right. If we help those who have made mistakes, where do we place the aggrieved party, the laws of the nation, and justice?"
"I know I was wrong and I will not do it again. Please be my witnesses and supervise my future words and deeds."
Zheng Qianjia is handsome and elegant, and her sincere apology won the favor of many people present.
After Zheng Qianjia finished speaking, she cautiously glanced at Qin Xiaomi.
Qin Xiaomi was full of questions: "Why are you peeking at me? Don't worry, after you're punished, the grudges will be settled. From now on, we'll go our separate ways. If we have any more grudges, I'll take my own revenge."
Zheng Qianjia: "..."
Is this uncouth peasant girl out of her mind? How can she be completely unmoved by the cautious gaze of such a handsome young man like him?!
Qin Xiaomi understood his little tricks, but: You're a student, not a prostitute, so stop thinking about selling yourself, okay?
He wasn't being sincere; he just wanted to lure her into a trap so he could harm her.
“Jiang Qianshi, although my second uncle beat Young Master Chen, it was an act of an elder supporting a junior, not a formal punishment. So Young Master Chen’s flesh still needs to be cut off; it is the punishment he deserves.” Qin Xiaomi pointed to the string of prisoners and continued to remind them, “They are all manpower. Look how energetic they are. Send them to the front lines, either to do odd jobs carrying corpses and supplies, or to fight directly against the enemy and sacrifice themselves for the country.”
Upon hearing this, the prisoners erupted in anger, shouting, "You evil devil... no, no, we're not cursing you. The crimes we committed haven't reached the point of fighting on the front lines. That's something only death row inmates and serious criminals are required to do."
"Master Qin, Miss Qin, we were wrong. We only went to the gate of Wu Garden to cause trouble because we listened to the slander of Scholar Lu. We were also deceived. Please be magnanimous and let us go."
"We have elderly people and children at home, we have to go back to protect them, sob sob sob!"
By the end, some prisoners were so frightened that they started crying.
They never expected that the consequences of causing trouble would be so severe... Facing enemy troops who liked to dissect Wei people alive on the battlefield, it would be better to just give them a blow directly.
Madam Guan sneered, "You don't even have the courage to face the enemy on the battlefield, what right do you have to criticize Master Qin?! You should know that Master Qin earned his military merits by facing the enemy head-on and killing them!"
"If it weren't for Qin Dongjia's powerful weapon, Xiduo and his tens of thousands of enemy troops would still be occupying Dongfu Town!"
Lu, the scholar, was prepared to die. Upon hearing this, he shouted, "The weapon belongs to the dynasty. Master Qin must hand it over, or he will be accused of using the weapon to his advantage and usurping the country!"
After yelling, he cried out in pain again. Jiang Qianshi's grip was too strong, and the bones in the lower half of his face were hurting.
"Who took the gag out of this thing's mouth?!" Jiang Qianshi exclaimed angrily.
General Chu, who had been listening nearby for a while, spoke up: "Jiang Qianshi, there's no need to be angry. The harsher their words, the heavier their crimes, and the more miserable their fate."
He instructed Commander Gan: "Take him to the torture chamber and punish him for treason as a family that has been credited with spreading rumors... The evidence for this crime is conclusive, and it is a capital offense, so there is no need to show any mercy. Treat him the same way you would treat the enemy."
Jiang Qianshi was a good man, and reminded him: "General Chu, Bai Peijian, Chen Yusheng, and this whole bunch of criminals have committed the same crimes. Some spread rumors that the Prince of Ye was raising a private army and seizing weapons to rebel, and others spread rumors that I was going to rebel. In short, they are crazy and are courting death!"
Do they think the capital city is still the domain of Gu Chengyong and the powerful clans? What nonsense are you spouting? As long as the Gu family and the powerful clans don't pursue the matter, they won't really be punished.
The world has changed, you fools.
Upon hearing this, General Chu angrily retorted, "A bunch of treacherous villains who undermine our resistance against the enemy! The Punishment Hall will teach them a lesson!"
Commander Gan understood and immediately ordered, "The Death Squad, take the men to the torture chamber!" "Yes, sir!" The Death Squad soldiers, reeking of blood, rushed toward the string of prisoners.
The soldiers of the suicide squad, besides carrying out missions with a high chance of survival, also interrogated enemy soldiers by torture, so their methods were ruthless.
Whenever a prisoner cried out or struggled, the soldiers of the Death Squad would immediately strike, dislocating their arms or jaws, or at the very least, delivering two heavy punches.
Ah, they all shut up and dared not utter another word.
Young Master Chen added, "Sir, I'll confess everything. I certainly won't hide anything!"
Bai Peijian's mouth was still stuffed with cloth, but his eyes were full of terror, and he nodded.
Mr. Tong felt a wave of dizziness and angrily cursed Master Zheng, "What kind of trash have you found? These people wouldn't even need to be tortured to confess everything to the soldiers of the Death Squad!"
"Junior Zheng Qianjia greets General Chu." Zheng Qianjia spoke up, reminding General Chu: "General, my cousin Qianming, my classmate Yang Zeru, Wen Xiangnan and others are the victims. Please treat them gently, they are not criminals."
Si Pei said, "Don't worry, Zheng Tongxue, the soldiers are all fine. Si Feng was not tortured. He was just told the Wei army the whole story of the student killing the students before, during, and after the incident."
He then reminded Zheng Qianming and the others, "You must answer carefully and make sure your answers are consistent. Otherwise, you won't be able to sleep and will have to repeat your answers at least five times. If you make a mistake in any of the five repetitions, you'll have to start all over again."
Is this because he wasn't tortured?
This is one form of torture!
It was indeed torture. Si Feng, a fair-skinned and handsome young man, had been tormented without sleep, looking like a ghost that had just crawled out of its grave.
His head was spinning, but he could still recognize people. When he saw his classmates, he squinted his eyes, which were covered by dark circles, and chuckled, "You're here. Sit down... Don't worry, you won't get beaten up... Hehe, you just have to write your confession a few more times... Whew."
When these words were spoken, not only Zheng Qianjia, Zheng Qianming, Lu Qian, Mr. Tong, and others, but even good children like Yang Zeru were terrified.
It took Si Feng more than a quarter of an hour to finish speaking just one sentence.
After saying a few words, he got sleepy and fell asleep for a while. When he woke up, he continued talking.
This is terrifying! They've been tortured to this extent!
Mr. Tong was in despair. Si Feng could withstand such torture because he was innocent, but Zheng Qianming was not!
Why can't Zheng Qianming learn from Lu Fenxu and end his own life?
If Zheng Qianming dies, not only can the truth of the student killing the student be covered up, but a major case can also be created where "the student who cooperated with the interrogation was forced to death by Wei Jun's torture!"
It can only be said that one should not harm others in order to protect oneself. Once one harms others, it is not self-protection, but self-destruction.
"Zheng Xuezi, Mr. Tong, Zheng Tongpan, and Mr. Wen Tao, you all saw it with your own eyes. The Sifeng Xuezi was indeed unharmed and has not been punished." Xiao Gan Qianhu said with a smile, "I hope you will all clear the name of our criminal investigation department and prevent outsiders from spreading rumors."
Judge Zheng said, "I saw with my own eyes that the students of the Sifeng Academy were indeed not tortured and had no physical injuries."
Lu Qian turned and glared at him angrily: "Depriving someone of sleep is torture!"
Commander Gan: "Young students, don't spread rumors. The students of Sifeng are so eager to help our Wei army solve the case that they have been working tirelessly day and night to write a complete and accurate account of the case."
Wow, Uncle Qin was shocked. This commander could spout even more twisted logic than him!
Gan Qianhu's words made Mr. Tong, Zheng Qianjia, and Lu Qian even more anxious. They felt that Zheng Qianming might not be able to hold back and would let something slip, which would put them in a very difficult situation...
The group was horrified and their murderous intent rose within them.
