Zhao Heng was tied up like a rice dumpling by the prison guards of the Jinyi Guards, unable to move at all. When he saw the prison head holding a boiling hot water kettle and walking towards him, he knew that he might not be able to escape this disaster today.

Only then did he experience how precious his parents' protection was, and how ruthless society was.

Just when Zhao Heng closed his eyes and waited for death, a middle-aged man in his forties walked in from the door. He stood at the door holding his nose and shouted: "Liu Tou, wait a moment!"

Old Liu, the cell leader, looked back and saw that standing at the door was Zhao Cai, the housekeeper of Lord Baihu. This housekeeper was an old family member brought by Zhao Mengguan from Suzhou. He heard that he was also related to Zhao Mengguan, so Liu Tou quickly put down the housekeeper.

Kettle walked to the door with a flattering face and asked with a smile: "Mr. Zhao, why do you have time to come to this villain?"

The torture room was dark. Although an oil lamp was lit, he could not see clearly what was going on inside. The butler Zhao Cai covered his nose and asked: "Liu Tou, I just saw you arresting a person. Who knows?"

?”

Old Liu didn't know who the boy was inside, so he said: "Mr. Zhao, I don't know who this is, but my nephew sent it to me. He said he is a water bandit. Let me discipline him!"

Zhao Cai is Zhao Mengguan's close family member, and Zhao Shu is Zhao Mengguan's nephew. Lao Liu can't afford to offend either of them, so he has no choice but to tell the truth.

Zhao Cai stood at the door and looked inside. He really couldn't see the face of the man inside. He had no choice but to endure the bloody stench in the torture chamber, walked into the room and came to Zhao Heng to take a closer look.

The prisoner was afraid that Zhao Cai could not see clearly, so he brought the oil lamp next to him.

Now that there was light, Zhao Cai could see clearly. He reached out and took out the rag from Zhao Heng's mouth and asked, "This little brother? Is your surname Zhao?"

Zhao Heng's mouth was numb with the rag and he couldn't speak at all. He had no choice but to nod hard.

When Zhao Cai saw that there was a door, he asked again: "Brother, are you the son of Zhao Fuxiang, the wife of Zhao Yuan of Haidian Island?"

When Zhao Heng heard that the person in front of him knew him, he couldn't help but feel the hope of survival in his heart, and he quickly said vaguely: "Yes, I am Zhao Heng!"

After hearing this, Zhao Cai nodded and waved his hand to summon the cell leader Old Liu at the door. Old Liu thought that Butler Zhao had something good to do with him, so he quickly stepped forward and asked with a smile: "Mr. Zhao, what's the point of calling you a villain?

thing?"

Zhao Cai waited for Old Liu's face to come close to him, waved his hand and gave Old Liu a big slap, and then cursed: "Do you know that you almost ruined the master's big event?"

The master in Zhao Cai's mouth only refers to Zhao Mengguan. Lao Liu was a little confused by Zhao Cai and asked: "Master Zhao, this boy was sent by my nephew. I just do what I am told..."

Zhao Cai didn't listen to Liu Tou's explanation at all, and said: "Why don't you quickly untie Master Zhao Heng? I will report it to the master and see how he deals with you!"

Why did Zhao Cai know Zhao Heng? Because Zhao Heng got married a month ago, and Zhao Cai was the guest who sent gifts on behalf of Zhao Mengguan.

Although Zhao Fuxiang had a good relationship with Zhao Mengguan, and Zhao Mengguan also asked to go to Zhao Fuxiang to handle matters, after all, Zhao Fuxiang was a commoner, and Zhao Mengguan was considered a prominent figure in the city. How could he lower his status to attend the wedding of a commoner's son?

Although Zhao Cai is a family servant, he represents Zhao Mengguan.

So when I attended the banquet, I was arranged to sit in the first seat, sharing the table with the butler of the conductor Mao Jiao. When Zhao Fuxiang brought Zhao Heng out to toast, Zhao Cai had met Zhao Heng himself, and Zhao Heng was tall and majestic.

, Zhao Cai was naturally deeply impressed by this eldest son of the Zhao family.

Zhao Cai went out to do errands today and happened to see Director Zhao at the door. Although Director Zhao was Zhao Mengguan’s nephew, he did not dare to show off in front of Zhao Cai, so he quickly bowed and saluted. After asking, Zhao Cai learned that Director Zhao was out to arrest him.

I just captured a water bandit and escorted him back.

Zhao Cai is an old family member of Zhao Mengguan, so he naturally knows what kind of virtue this young nephew is. Apart from eating, drinking, whoring and gambling, he can't do anything else. Otherwise, if his father died early, this guy wouldn't be able to stay in Zhao Mengguan's house forever.

In the past, when Director Zhao ran out of money, he would go out and arrest a few wealthy businessmen, falsely accuse them of being pirates, and then collect the money. Today, he probably didn't know that the wealthy businessman in the city was unlucky again and fell into the hands of Director Zhao.

Although Zhao Cai looked down on what Director Zhao did, Director Zhao was his master after all, and he couldn't really say anything as a domestic servant, so Zhao Cai didn't intend to take care of it, and was going to go out to do things after separation from Director Zhao.

When he arrived at the door, Zhao Caizheng saw the cell leader, Old Liu Zheng, leading a group of people to beat and kick a young man. The young man was very tall, a head taller than the prisoners, so Zhao Cai could see it very clearly.

Zhao Cai looked at the young man and saw that he looked very familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before, so Zhao Cai didn't take it to heart and went out to do errands. When Zhao Cai walked to the street, he suddenly remembered that the young man was

Who is Zhao Heng, the son of Zhao Fuxiang? I even attended his wedding.

Zhao Cai is a close family member of Zhao Mengguan. He knows that his master is asking Zhao Fuxiang to establish relations with the Donglin Party. Now that the matter has not been resolved, Zhao Fuxiang's son has been arrested. Now the matter is serious. But fortunately, those

The prisoner didn't really hit Zhao Heng. The matter has not reached the point of irreversibility. The next step depends on how Zhao Mengguan handles it.

After Zhao Cai left the cell, he quickly went to the back house to find Zhao Mengguan and told him the whole story in detail. Zhao Mengguan was shocked when he heard this and cursed his nephew for causing trouble for him everywhere.

Offended Zhao Fuxiang's son? It would be fine if it was just Zhao Fuxiang's son. Although Zhao Fuxiang and Chen Mingxia were sworn brothers, Chen Mingxia might not think highly of Zhao Fuxiang.

But Zhao Heng is different. Zhao Heng's father-in-law, Lao Taishan, is Zhang Wenming. Even if Chen Mingxia is arrogant, he will never offend Zhang Wenming. If he really offends Zhang Wenming, then Zhao Mengguan's plan to transfer back to the capital will be completely defeated.

.

Zhao Mengguan cursed: "Zhao Cai, where is that little beast?"

Of course Zhao Cai knew that Zhao Mengguan was scolding Director Zhao, so he quickly said: "Master, now is not the time to punish the young nephew, you should go and see Zhao Heng!"

Zhao Mengguan nodded repeatedly. The right way to go to see Zhao Heng was now. Zhao Mengguan asked as he walked: "How is it? Has Zhao Heng been punished?"

"Old Liu*, the cell leader, went to attack the villain just as he was about to attack him. However, it seems that Zhao Heng was very frightened. I should have made preparations in advance!"

Zhao Cai meant to ask Zhao Mengguan to think about how to maintain the relationship. He must not offend Zhang Wenming at this time. Zhao Mengguan nodded, thinking about how to give Zhao Heng a satisfactory answer.

The entire Jinyiwei Baihu Yamen is not very big, so Zhao Mengguan arrived within a few minutes.

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

After entering the prison, the cell leader, Old Liu, saw Lord Baihu coming in person, and quickly led his men to kneel on the ground to greet Lord Baihu.

Zhao Mengguan didn't care about his subordinates at this time, so he quickly walked into the room and took a look. At this time, Zhao Heng had taken off the tiger bench and was sitting on a chair next to him to rest.

Zhao Mengguan had never met Zhao Heng, but seeing that the young man in front of him looked very similar to Zhao Fuxiang, he knew that this was Zhao Heng, Zhao Fuxiang's son.

Zhao Mengguan hurriedly walked in, took Zhao Heng's hand and said, "My dear nephew, my uncle was late, and my nephew was almost humiliated!"

Zhao Cai explained from the side: "Mr. Zhao, this is Mr. Zhao of our Jinyiwei Hundred Households, and he is of the same clan as Mr. Zhao!"

Zhao Hengke was far more polite than his father Zhao Fuxiang. Knowing that the middle-aged man in front of him was his father's good friend, he quickly stood up and bowed his hands in salute: "It turns out to be Uncle Zhao. My nephew is polite here!"

Seeing that Zhao Heng was not injured, Zhao Mengguan was relieved. However, Zhao Heng had to give an explanation for this matter today, so Zhao Mengguan said: "My dear nephew, my uncle's men recognized the wrong person today. How could they kill him for no reason?"

My nephew is here to arrest me? My nephew, please rest assured, my uncle will definitely vent your anger!"

After Zhao Mengguan finished speaking, he turned to the prison boss Old Liu and asked: "Old Liu, have you eaten the courage of a bear's heart and a leopard's heart? Didn't you know that this is my nephew? How dare you detain him without reason? Now you still want to impose punishment? You

Don’t you want to live anymore?”

As soon as Lao Liu heard this, he knew that Zhao Mengguan wanted to pass the blame. You must know that Zhao Heng was arrested by Zhao Mengguan's nephew Zhao Shu. Now Zhao Mengguan has pinned the shit basin on Lao Liu. Needless to say, he asked Lao Liu to replace Zhao

Shu took the blame!

Although Lao Liu knew that he was wronged, what could he say? What could he dare to say? There was no way Lao Liu knew what to do, so he knelt on the ground and said, "Sir, I know I was wrong! Please punish me!"

Old Liu originally thought that if he cooperated with Zhao Mengguan, he would be whipped twice to vent his anger on Zhao Heng. But Zhao Mengguan didn't think so. What he wanted was Old Liu's life!

Zhao Mengguan glared and cursed: "Old Liu, you are an old jailer, how can you still make this mistake? If I hadn't arrived in time, would you have wanted to clean up my nephew?"

Zhao Mengguan was an expert in Jinyiwei. He could tell what kind of torture these guys wanted to use on Zhao Heng by looking at the torture instruments prepared in the room, so he said: "Okay, since you want to bully my nephew, I will let you

Enjoy your scrubbing!"

After Zhao Mengguan finished speaking, he waved his hand, and several guardsmen who came with him came forward, picked up Old Liu, and tied him to the tiger bench where Zhao Heng had been sitting just now. The water on the side had already been boiled, and one of the guards tied him up.

Lao Liu tore open his trouser legs, picked up a kettle and poured water on it. The boiling water flowed through, and his skin immediately turned red and blistered. Lao Liu's legs were in excruciating pain, and he fainted as soon as he closed his eyes.

How can you fish in troubled waters when you faint? Those Jinyiwei fans are all veterans. One of them picked up the prepared iron brush and began to scrub the muscles on Lao Liu's legs vigorously. Not to mention that the muscles had been cooked by boiling water, even good meat could not stand the iron.

The brush was scrubbing back and forth, and Lao Liu was immediately awakened by the severe pain, screaming for help!

Zhao Heng had seen blood after going through the pirate rebellion. He had also killed several pirates, but this was the first time he had seen such a bloody scene. His legs, which were intact just five minutes ago, were now wiped out.

How could Zhao Heng see the white bones? He lay on the ground and vomited!
