Chapter 123 Tragedy
Chapter 123 Tragedy
After coming out of Lu's house, Wang Feihu helped Ye Xuan, who was drunk, to get on the horse.
After Ye Xuan sat firmly, he pulled the reins and said, "Sir, although this Minister of the Ministry of Rites is not a high-ranking official, he is still one of the Nine Ministers, and he is also the father of the current Crown Prince's concubine."
"Your Excellency, with only the sixth rank of a centurion, can drink and chat with such a person. If you tell others about it, I wonder how many people will envy you to death."
Ye Xuan smiled slightly, thinking that if Wang Feihu knew that he not only drank and chatted happily with the Minister of Taichang Temple, but also was on equal footing with Zhu Yuanzhang and others, he would be scared to death.
However, Ye Xuan is a low-key person and is too lazy to publicize these things.
Wang Feihu envied for a moment, then held the reins and said, "Sir, I will take you back home now."
Ye Xuan was about to nod, but for some reason he remembered what Lu Ben said, "Imperial Doctor Xu was introduced to the Eastern Palace by Lu."
Although he instinctively felt that it was impossible, it seemed as if there was something guiding him, making him want to find out the truth.
"No, let's go back to Weiyu!" Ye Xuan said suddenly while sitting on the horse.
Wang Feihu was stunned and asked, "Hasn't Zhang Qi confessed everything? Does your Excellency think he is still suspicious?"
Ye Xuan narrowed his eyes, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and he said: "No, I want to interrogate Doctor Xu's family tonight!"
…………
Jinyiwei, Weiyu.
"Sir, please let us go!" A group of seven or eight men, women, old and young knelt down in front of Ye Xuan. If it weren't for the presence of Wang Feihu and other Jinyiwei, they would probably have crawled to Ye Xuan's feet and begged.
Ye Xuan smiled slightly, looked at several women in the crowd whose clothes were in disarray and whose nakedness was exposed, and glanced meaningfully at his men around him.
Several people immediately showed guilty expressions and did not dare to respond to Ye Xuan's gaze.
However, Ye Xuan had no intention of pursuing the matter. Even if these women did not die, they would be sent to the Jiaofang Bureau and become messengers of happiness for the rest of their lives.
Ye Xuan is not a messenger of justice, and he is too lazy to care about these things.
"Let you go?" Ye Xuan sat on the chair with his arms and legs stretched out. He leaned down and looked slowly at the group of prisoners. For some reason he felt like a villain in a movie.
"How can you expect me to let you go?"
The crowd fell silent, and a beautiful woman in her thirties said nervously, "Sir, I can serve you and guarantee that you will be comfortable!"
Wang Feihu chuckled when he heard this, and leaned close to Ye Xuan's ear and said, "Sir, this is the concubine that Doctor Xu just married. She smells good. Do you want to try it..."
Ye Xuan rolled his eyes and cursed: "You all know this woman smells good, doesn't that mean you've used her before?"
Wang Feihu chuckled, shrank his neck and said nothing more.
However, one of his men thought Ye Xuan had some intentions, and pointed at a little girl of about fifteen or sixteen in the crowd and said with a smile: "If you are so inclined, you might as well enjoy that little girl. She is the little daughter of Doctor Xu. We brothers wanted to have sex with her several times, but she threatened to die and forced us to retreat."
"She must still be a novice. Brothers, help hold your hands and feet so that you won't be disturbed!"
Ye Xuan frowned and shouted coldly, "Shut up!"
All the men were shocked and shut up. As the saying goes, when in Rome, do as the Romans do. Ye Xuan is not the embodiment of justice.
He could turn a blind eye and pretend not to know about some of the bad habits and atrocities within the Jinyiwei.
But if he were asked to get involved, Ye Xuan couldn't do it!
However, the beautiful woman seemed to have been tortured to the point of becoming mentally insane. She laughed strangely, revealing her body covered with unknown stains. She grabbed the little girl of fifteen or sixteen and knelt down and crawled two steps towards Ye Xuan. The frightened girl grabbed her collar tightly and burst into tears.
"My lord, my lord, do you want to play?" The beautiful woman smiled at Ye Xuan with saliva dripping from her mouth, saying, "This is the bastard child of that old man and his deceased wife. Look how handsome he is!"
As he said this, he tore the girl's already tattered clothes, revealing her fair and tender skin.
As if pointing at a prized commodity, the beautiful woman said with a smile, "Look, sir, it has grown and is ready for you to enjoy!"
Ye Xuan looked at the already crazy woman in front of him, and a rare trace of pity appeared in his eyes.
It was clearly the man's fault, so why should his family bear such inhumane consequences?
However, this is the rule of the times, and Ye Xuan is powerless to change it.
As if thinking that Ye Xuan was dissatisfied, the beautiful woman let go of the girl's hand and began to tear her clothes nervously and fearfully.
He kept muttering, "Master, do you think it's not enough? I can also eat some. I'll help you eat, Master! Master!"
Ye Xuan couldn't bear to watch any longer, he stood up suddenly and slapped Wang Feihu in the face who was watching with great interest, and said angrily: "You did a good thing!"
This slap not only stunned Wang Feihu and other Jinyiwei, but also shocked seven or eight family members of Doctor Xu.
Everyone looked at Ye Xuan in confusion, not understanding why the captain suddenly got so angry.
Wang Feihu covered his face and looked at Ye Xuan in shock, even muttering a little aggrieved: "Sir...you, you..."
The woman was still tearing her clothes madly, laughing and talking nonsense: "I'll help you eat, sir. The men in the Jinyiwei all praised me for being very good at it! Hahahaha..."
Ye Xuan felt a surge of hot blood rushing to his brain, and even his vision turned blood red.
"Don't you have wives and children?" Ye Xuan's eyes were bloodshot. He glanced at the Jinyiwei present one by one and said word by word: "If you were imprisoned one day, you would also want me to treat your wives and daughters like this!"
No one dared to look Ye Xuan in the eye. They all lowered their heads in fear.
But at the same time, because of Ye Xuan's words, he couldn't help but imagine that his wife and daughter were subjected to the same inhumane treatment.
What would happen if they were raped, beaten, abused and humiliated?
At this moment, everyone couldn't help but refresh their perception of Ye Xuan, who had always been approachable. It turned out that he could be so terrifying when he got angry. They could even have sympathy in a place like Jinyiwei.
Ye Xuan closed his eyes and took a deep breath for a long time before suppressing the anger in his heart.
He knew that this kind of thing was inevitable in the judicial system of this era, but...
"I don't care what others do, but as long as you still want to work under me, Ye Xuan, I don't want to see this happen again, otherwise don't blame me, Ye Xuan, for not thinking of brotherhood!"
Everyone shuddered and nodded hurriedly in response.
Waving his hand, Ye Xuan glanced at the beautiful woman who was still going crazy with some reluctance and said: "Take her away, if possible, give her a quick death..."
