Chapter 211 Chen Family
Chapter 211 Chen Family

"Everyone thinks that this torture device can only be used on women, but few people know that it can also be used on men. Lord Wang, are you interested in seeing it?" Ye Xuan's mouth curled up slightly, and a rare hint of teasing appeared in his eyes.

Wang Guangyang, who looked like he was about to die, suddenly raised his head when he heard the words, stared at Ye Xuan with bloodshot eyes and roared:
"Traitor, I am the Right Prime Minister of the Secretariat, how dare you do this to me!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the Jinyiwei in the cell burst into laughter.

Wang Feihu laughed and said, "Oh, I'm so scared!"

Song Zhenshan also laughed: "It's a pity that this is not the Prime Minister's Mansion!"

"We are frightened by Prime Minister Wang's authority. We should whip him twice to calm him down." An Imperial Guard drew out a whip and approached fiercely.

However, the Jinyiwei was stopped by Ye Xuan, "Let's stop here today. If we continue fighting, I'm afraid our Prime Minister Wang will have to die here."

"Hasn't His Majesty given birth to a child and asked us to search Prime Minister Wang's house? This is a lucrative job. I heard that Prime Minister Wang has several concubines who are very pretty. Let's go and see them!"

Wang Guangyang instantly understood Ye Xuan's highly suggestive words, and was immediately furious.

"Traitors... No, Captain Ye, Lord Ye, please don't let your family get hurt, please let them go!"

"Are you scared now? It's too late!" Ye Xuan shook his head and continued, "The seizure of property is the order of His Majesty. I can't help!"

"But..." Ye Xuan paused and said, "If you can reveal the mastermind and accomplices behind the scenes, perhaps I can plead with His Majesty to save your family from imprisonment."

Wang Guangyang looked tangled, and after a long pause he gritted his teeth and said, "Master Ye, I did this alone and I really have no accomplices!"

"It seems that you won't cry until you see the coffin." Ye Xuan was too lazy to talk nonsense and just said hello, then took Wang Feihu and Song Zhengshan out of the cell.

"My Lord, where are we going now?"

Ye Xuan turned his head and glanced at Wang Feihu, then said with a smile: "Of course we are going to search their house. Do you think I am just joking?"

Wang Feihu scratched his head awkwardly and said with a smile: "I thought you were going to the Yingtian government office to borrow a wooden horse."

Although the Jinyiwei had a full range of eighteen instruments of torture, they generally did not use highly targeted instruments like the Trojan Horse, so there were no such instruments in the Zhengfusi.

However, local government offices often deal with cases such as murder of husbands and adultery, so there are some such cases.

Ye Xuan couldn't help laughing, and slapped Wang Feihu on the back of his head, scolding him with a smile: "You don't think it's disgusting, I was just trying to scare him."

Soon, more than a hundred Jinyiwei rushed to Wang’s mansion again in a mighty force.

Fifty people were left behind to surround the huge Wang Mansion to prevent anyone from escaping. Then Ye Xuan personally led the remaining fifty people, rushed into the mansion and began to search.

The doorman was so scared when he saw this that he pissed himself.

The Jinyiwei came to his house twice in one day. It was obvious that Wang Guangyang was going to fall.

Moreover, this time, the Jinyiwei were even more ferocious than in the morning. They had even drawn the Embroidered Spring Swords at their waists before they even approached the gate.

It was Ye Xuan and his men who rushed into Wang's house as if they were in an empty space. Wang Feihu even grabbed the doorman who wanted to escape and shouted, "Anyone who dares to resist the Jinyiwei's raid on the house will be killed without mercy!"

"Go and notify everyone in your house to gather in the front yard immediately! If you want to escape, don't blame me for having a blind knife in my hand!"

The doorman's legs had already gone weak, and he knelt on the ground and trembled as he responded, "Yes, yes, I'll go and notify them right away!"

That being said, the doorman's legs had no strength left and he was afraid that if he was a little slower he would be chopped by Wang Feihu, so he crawled on the ground on all fours in a very awkward manner.

Seeing all the Jinyiwei burst into laughter, Ye Xuan just glanced at them coldly and did not feel any sympathy for this man.

When Wang Guangyang was at the peak of his fame, countless people wanted to meet him, but they were all stopped outside the door by this small gatekeeper and asked to pay a hefty fee.

Now that Wang Guangyang has fallen, those who were once in power must now pay the price for their former glory.

As for house searches, the Jinyiwei under Ye Xuan were already very familiar with the process. They didn't need Ye Xuan's command. Song Zhenshan and Wang Feihu had already begun directing the Jinyiwei to rush into every room in the mansion and begin searching.

As rare treasures, antiques, calligraphy and paintings were piled up in the front yard, Wang Guangyang's family members slowly gathered in the front yard.

Ye Xuan ignored them and focused on confiscating the house.

The tribute from Champa has not been found yet, and he has no intention of chatting with the families of these convicted officials.

I thought it would take some effort to find it, but after a while, the Jinyiwei came to report that a large number of treasures were found in Wang Guangyang's study.

Among them were rare treasures such as corals and night-shining pearls that were rarely seen in the Central Plains. As these treasures were moved to the front yard, Ye Xuan took out the tribute list given to him by Liu Fushun and checked them one by one, confirming that these rare treasures were indeed the tribute offered by the Champa Kingdom.

Ye Xuan could not help but be greatly surprised. If someone secretly withheld tribute from a vassal state, it would not be surprising that the family would be confiscated and the clan would be exterminated. However, Wang Guangyang simply placed the tribute in the study. Isn't this too arrogant?
After taking a look at the Wang family members, Ye Xuan walked towards them.

Seeing someone who was obviously the leader of the Embroidered Uniform Guard walking towards them, the family members of the Wang family couldn't help but tremble in fear.

Seeing the horrified eyes of the crowd, Ye Xuan curled his lips slightly, looked at a woman holding a baby in her arms, and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, His Majesty has not yet made an order on how to deal with you. At most, he will put you in jail..."

Ye Xuan thought he had said these words in the most gentle tone, but it would have been better if he hadn't said it. Once these words were spoken, the family members became even more terrified.

"Where are you going to lock us up?"

The woman holding the baby had turned pale with fear.

Xuan smiled slightly and reached out to touch the baby in the woman's arms. Although the woman was frightened, she did not dare to hide.

Stroking the baby's round face, Ye Xuan smiled and said, "We are the Jinyiwei, so of course we have to put you in the prison."

Thinking of the horrific rumors about the Zhengfusi Prison among the people, the woman fell to the ground with a thud!
"Please have mercy, my child is still young and can't stand the torture of the prison guards!"

The woman held the baby in one hand and Ye Xuan's thigh in the other. Her pretty face was crying with tears in her eyes, which made me feel sorry for her.

Ye Xuan pinched the woman's chin and looked at her carefully.
