After Nalan Jinnian left the palace, he went directly to a dungeon in the Criminal Department.
Although this dungeon was located in the Ministry of Punishment, it was exclusively used by Nalan Jinnian.
When the guard outside the dungeon saw him, he immediately saluted respectfully: "I have met His Highness King Jin in this humble position."
Then open the door immediately.
As soon as the thick black iron door opened, a strong smell of blood came.
Nalan Jinnian walked in expressionlessly, and then walked down the stairs step by step.
This dungeon is large and has many pools, about twenty or so.
There were several people hanging in chains on several of the pools. They were all covered in dried blood. Their original appearance could not be seen, and their identities were unknown.
The water under their pool was blood red and filled with chilly air.
Those few people were already hanging on for breath, and they couldn't survive or die here.
These people are the nails of all countries.
There are also several pools where the water is rolling and steaming.
Without even looking at them, Nalan Jinnian walked directly past the pool of alternating hot and cold air and came to a room.
This room is a place for torture and trial.
There are various torture instruments inside.
At this moment, Xie Yunlin's hands and body were wrapped by three pythons, and three tongues were spitting out snake letters at him.
There was no blood on his face at this moment, and his lips were black.
I was so scared that I didn’t even dare to close my eyes, and when I opened my eyes, I wanted to faint!
But if you faint, you will be woken up again!
Even so, he has been frightened and fainted several times!
Life is simply worse than death.
He didn't understand how these people knew that he was most afraid of snakes, so they used snakes to deal with him.
When the two executioners saw Nalan Jinnian coming in, they immediately saluted: "I have met my master in this humble position."
Nalan Jinnian didn't even look at Xie Yunlin: "What did you ask?"
"Return to the master, I haven't asked anything yet."
Xie Yunlin almost cried!
He said everything, but he actually said he hadn't asked anything yet
Nalan Jinnian's expression turned cold when he heard this: "Oh, then throw him into the snake's nest!"
Xie Yunlin was so frightened that his heart almost stopped. He tried his best to ignore the three snake heads and said anxiously with a trembling voice: "King Jin, I really don't know the whereabouts of the silver from the previous treasury. That phoenix tail hairpin... Before the incident happened in the Guo family, Miss Guo San sent someone to bring me a bag, which contained very expensive jewelry. She originally planned to sneak out and let me take her away. We all agreed to leave in three days. Yes, I didn’t expect that the General’s Mansion would be surrounded by heavy troops so quickly and she wouldn’t be able to get out.”
At this time, the guard who executed the sentence said: "Master, the bag of jewelry he mentioned has been found in the place he said. It is this baggage."
The guard pointed to a small bundle on the table next to him.
Nalan Jinnian walked over.
The guard immediately opened the bundle, revealing pieces of exquisite and priceless jewelry inside, including an apple-sized luminous pearl.
Such a piece of baggage is enough for a family to live a prosperous life.
Nalan Jinnian took one look and said, "Give these things to Shuntian Prefecture Yin."
Nalan Jinnian looked at Xie Yunlin again: "Did you spread the rumor?"
Xie Yunlin shook his head, but as soon as he shook his head, the three snake heads came closer again, and he was so frightened that he immediately dared not move.
He said anxiously: "No, I didn't spread the rumors! I just used the rumors to avenge my Guo family."
Nalan Jinnian snorted coldly.
Revenge for the Guo family
Find his little girl
This is bullying good and fearing evil!
"Thrown into a snake's den! Give him a good trial!"
After Nalan Jinnian finished speaking, he raised his feet and walked out.
Xie Yunlin was almost frightened to death when he heard that. The snake nest was densely packed with snakes. If he was thrown in, he would be crawled all over by snakes and bitten until no bones were left!
Just thinking of that scene made him tremble with fear:
"King Jin, King Jin, I really didn't lie. I told everything I knew! Someone shot me a letter with an arrow to remind me that I could do this. But I don't know who the person who sent me the letter was. Who. The other person didn’t show his face at all, he just shot the arrow on the wall of my house while I was sleeping. Really, I don’t know anything!”
Nalan Jinnian didn't listen to him at all and left directly.
Xie Yunlin was a scholar, not a specially trained dead soldier, so it was not difficult to interrogate such a person. Nalan Jinnian believed that he told the truth.
But since he dared to frame the little girl, his crime is unpardonable!
Besides, during interrogations, he might be able to tell some clues that he thought were useless, but were useful to them.
The few nails hanging in the pool were also interrogated again and again, and they told some information that seemed useless, but could infer useful things.
Just like what he said just now.
He said that General Guo's concubine gave him a package and planned to let him elope with her three days later. Unexpectedly, the Guo family was surrounded by heavy troops so soon.
In this way, the money that the Guo family took away from the former treasury should not be sent too far.
Before, they had always thought that the money had been sent to Huainan Mansion by the Guo family. Now it seems that it is absolutely impossible to send it to Huainan Mansion so quickly in such a short time.
The silver may still be around the capital.
Nalan Jinnian left the dungeon and went directly to Shuntian Mansion.
~
Shuntian Prefecture Yin has received the baggage of jewelry and Xie Yunlin's confession.
And today he has asked Zhang Shaoheng and others about everything about Xie Yunlin, and has sent people to find the whereabouts of Xie Yunlin's mother.
Xie Yunlin sent his mother and sister away a long time ago, and asked his sister to take her mother away to a foreign country, anonymously, without telling him where they settled.
So Xie Yunlin didn't know their whereabouts.
Xie Yunlin was prepared to die.
Behind Nalan Jinnian walking in, Shuntian Prefect Yin had just read through Xie Yunlin's confession, and then he took out the booklet from the previous treasury and was looking at the jewelry in the bag one by one.
Hearing the salute from the policeman outside, he immediately put down what he was holding and stood up. Just as he was about to go out to greet Nalan Jinnian, he walked in.
He bowed respectfully: "I have met King Jin before."
"Your Majesty, no courtesy. I am here to check out the properties that the Guo family has had for hundreds of years."
For hundreds of years
He just asked people to prepare thirty-year-old industry account books, but he didn’t expect that King Jin would actually want to see those from a hundred years ago!
Shuntian Fu Yin felt that Nalan Jinnian's caution was truly unrivaled in the world.
"I'll let someone dig it out right now. King Jin, please wait a moment."
"Yes." Nalan Jinnian lifted his clothes and sat down.
The master immediately served him tea.
Shuntian Prefecture Yin said to his master: "Go and find the Guo family's previous property registration books and account books."
"Yes!" The master responded and hurriedly went to get it.
Nalan Jinnian picked up the tea bowl and took a sip of tea before asking, "Has your Excellency found anything?"
