Chapter 233 Death of Zhou Wenyi
Dou Wenyuan has always hidden the hatred in his heart. All the noble families have some dirty deeds.
You can be generous as long as it doesn’t happen to others.
He couldn't be tolerant when it happened to him.
He wanted to see the Dou Mansion make a fool of itself, but the destruction of the Dou Mansion had nothing to do with him.
Let the Dou family be buried with his mother.
"I'll go back and find out what happened today." Dou Wenyuan didn't even bother to eat, and hurriedly asked the servant to bring the horse over, and went back after getting on the horse.
Su Rutang told everyone what happened at the Dou Mansion.
Shang Yan was filled with murderous aura.
"The Dou family really takes themselves seriously." His eyes turned cold, and he helped Su Rutang into the house. "Master and the Emperor went to the Imperial Mausoleum, and they said they would be back in a few days. It's time to put some things to rest."
Su Rutang thought of the iron mine in Fengyang Prefecture.
"Where is Fengyang?"
"I have already found someone to take over, and all the important things inside have been transported away. I also found someone proficient in the art of medicine to tamper with the entrance to the mountain."
Except Shang Yan, no one can find the entrance to the iron mine.
The fifth prince in the capital is also in trouble.
The other princes all believed that it was the Fifth Prince who sent people to assassinate them, and now they concentrated their attention on dealing with the Fifth Prince.
The fifth prince looked for Shang Yan several times.
Pian Shangyan ignored him and said he was only following the emperor's orders.
Shang Yan also asked someone to secretly convey his conversation with the fifth prince to the emperor's ears.
The emperor smashed two inkstones.
"Did Lao Wu really say that? That I won't live for many more years?" The emperor wanted to cultivate immortality, and after taking Taoist Wu's elixir, he felt something was different.
"Your Majesty, the Tiger Guards have received news."
The Tiger Guards were the emperor's private guards, different from the Embroidered Uniform Guards who existed in public.
"What is Lao Wu in charge of recently?"
"The Fifth Prince is in charge of the Weaving Bureau and the affairs in Jiangnan." The eunuch glanced at the emperor quietly, bent down and whispered, "I heard that the tribute silk must be sent to the Fifth Prince's mansion first."
"I heard? That's just hearsay, it doesn't count."
The emperor's voice was a little lazy, and it was hard to tell whether he was angry or just didn't care.
The eunuch couldn't figure it out for a moment, "I thought so too. But...some people from Jiangnan came and caused some trouble.
Originally it was suppressed, but somehow someone voted for Bo Shizhong."
The emperor was about to speak.
Another young eunuch stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, Taoist Wu said that the time for cultivation has come. We must not delay Your Majesty's cultivation."
The emperor has been in Changle Book House since he met Long Fanshe.
I have been resting my body during this period.
The affairs of the court were handed over to several important ministers of Shen Zhongshu. On daily basis, Shen Zhongshu and several old ministers such as Bo Luohui would bring memorials to the Imperial Study to discuss matters.
Wait until the emperor is better.
He was busy cultivating immortality.
"Let's talk about it later. I will go to cultivate first, so don't delay my path to becoming an immortal. Taoist Wu said that my ancestors in the imperial mausoleum are just a little bit away from becoming immortals."
The young eunuch hurriedly brought a cup of tea.
Then he gave the pills in the brocade box to the emperor to take.
After the emperor took the elixir, he spoke: "I think the emperor looks more and more like an old lady."
"No, no. I need to practice more."
The emperor enjoyed it very much.
Holding the beads in his hand, he said, "Forget it. We'll talk about Lao Wu's matter later. Let's just find out what's going on with the tribute."
"Yes. Should I ask the Eastern Depot to investigate or the Imperial Guards?"
The emperor stood up and thought about it.
"That kid Du Yue is not dead, right?"
"He is still in prison. The Emperor has ordered him to stay there."
"Let the Royal Guards investigate."
The emperor walked to the door and stopped again. "The earth dragon's upheaval has nothing to do with Du Yue. He has been imprisoned for so many days and it is enough for him.
Go to the Imperial Prison and pass on my oral order, and let Du Yue come back to serve me."
"Yes."
Someone outside heard it and quickly disappeared into the night.
Tell the Jinyiwei what the emperor said.
The evil was actually sent to the imperial prison.
Holding a cloth belt, he entered the innermost cell.
"Zhou Wenyi."
Zhou Wenyi huddled in a corner. In the small cell was a urine bucket and a pile of dirty straw.
He looked back.
"Who is Zhou Wenyi? I am the director of the East Factory, Du Yue, a famous figure around the emperor." Zhou Wenyi's lips were so dry that they were bleeding, and his hair was mixed with dried blood. His voice was a little hoarse when he answered.
He looked at Zhou Wenyi with evil eyes.
"Are you dreaming? The emperor told you to go see the King of Hell."
"Do not."
Zhou Wenyi knew that the emperor would not really want his life, and it must be someone from the Imperial Guard who was seeking revenge.
"You tampered with the emperor's order. The emperor will not take my life." Zhou Wenyi waved his arms, "Go away, go away quickly."
Eshi opened the cell door.
His foot stepped on Zhou Wenyi's body.
"You are right. I will send you to see the King of Hell today."
"No. Your Majesty, please come and save this servant."
Zhou Wenyi didn't dare to move while lying down. The wounds on his body had already festered. Fortunately, it was winter, otherwise maggots would have grown.
There was a sound outside.
"Eh, hurry up. The eunuch who serves the emperor will be here soon."
"Okay."
Eshi grabbed Zhou Wenyi and stuffed his head into the urine bucket.
One foot stepped on Zhou Wenyi's back and pressed down hard. Zhou Wenyi buried his head in the urine bucket, holding his breath and trying to struggle with his hands.
The evildoer tied his hands with a cloth belt and held the belt in his own hands.
Gululu...
"How can the factory supervisor drink urine?" Eshi raised his voice, "You have to eat all the shit and urine in this bucket to survive."
Because of Zhou Wenyi's struggle.
Half a bucket of feces and urine overflowed.
The cell was filled with the stench of feces and urine, and the jailer outside muttered:
"Master, you've made the whole prison smell bad."
"I'll give you the money later and ask two people to clean up." Eshi stuffed a handkerchief into his nose, and the long handkerchief hung down.
As he spoke, the handkerchief trembled.
Zhou Wenyi could still struggle a few times at the beginning, but he could no longer struggle at the end.
I drank a lot of shit and urine.
Spit it out again.
Drink it again...
A number of completely different scenarios flashed through his mind.
Su Rutang adopted Zhou Wenyan.
The Su family has been helping them. Su Rutang took out the ancient book of Master Yun and... The Zhou Mansion became a hot and powerful family in the capital.
after that……
The Su family was destroyed.
Su Rutang was skinned to death by Zhou Wenyan.
On a dark and windy night, Shang Yan, who had left the capital, led his men into the Zhou residence. His men slaughtered the Zhou residence, and all the members of the Zhou family died in the massacre by Shang Yan and his son...
Zhou Wenyi felt so regretful.
So regretful.
Seeing that he was motionless, Eshi untied the cloth bandage on Zhou Wenyi's hands. His hands hung down on both sides, and he knelt beside the urine bucket, his head buried in the urine bucket and lost his life.
To outsiders, it looked like suicide.
Eshi left with the cloth strip.
The jailer came in, warned the prisoner next to him, and went out again, cursing.
It's just a cup of tea.
The eunuch who delivered the oral order came over.
Before entering the cell, he covered his nose with a handkerchief, "Ouch. This smells like a fire in the toilet."
"Eunuch, you also know what kind of people are in the imperial prison. We are all doing our job." The jailer smiled ingratiatingly.
"Don't burn the toilet."
"Where is Supervisor Du?"
"The innermost room. Is the emperor thinking of Supervisor Du?" The jailer was shocked. "Is the Supervisor going to get up again?"
"Yes. I will go and announce the emperor's order."
When the eunuch entered, he saw Du Yue lying face down in the urine, "Eunuch Du."
"Someone is coming."
The jailer hurried over to take a look and asked, "Why is he so depressed?"
The jailer quickly opened the cell door.
When Du Yue was pulled out of the urinary pain, his head and hair were covered with feces and urine.
There was still some of it hanging in his mouth.
"died."
The eunuch couldn't stand it anymore and ran outside vomiting. There are thousands of ways to commit suicide in the world, why choose such a dirty method?
I really don't understand.
The eunuchs went outside and were blown by the cold wind.
Even yellow bile was vomited out.
The jailer asked people to go in and collect the bodies and clean the cell.
The jailer ran out and shook his head. "It's so nasty. After all these years of guarding the Imperial Prison, this is the first time I've seen someone choose to die this way."
The eunuch finally stopped vomiting.
When he smelled the odor from the jailer, he started a new round of vomiting.
He waved to the jailer.
"Get away from this family right now."
……
When the emperor heard that Du Yue had died, he was silent for a long time. "Are you sure it was suicide?"
"We've asked the coroner to perform an autopsy, and it's confirmed to be suicide. There are no external injuries or signs of struggle." The eunuch couldn't imagine what he saw, "Your Majesty, do you want to ask the Dali Temple to investigate again?"
"No. Maybe he..."
The emperor only ordered people to bury him and said nothing else.
