26. Mercy

The rain was getting heavier and heavier. Xiao Shisi held an umbrella and led the way to a dilapidated and closed hut in the backyard for Jing Yan. He had been with Emperor Yuande for almost sixteen years. Because of his bravery and fearlessness, he was quick and neat and always used. Empress Chen died of suicide and Jing Yan was deposed. Emperor Yuande still felt guilty about him and was unwilling to kill him at this time. But he was worried that the deposed prince would have a strange intention, so he sent Xiao Shisi and another secret guard to Jing Yan to take turns to monitor him. He reported to Emperor Yuande about the deposed prince's movements a few days ago. Because this matter was very important, Xiao Shisi had almost removed from all other positions and focused on the matter of the Taiqing Palace.

Jing Yan remembered the date of the two secret guards' shifts in his heart. Xiao Shisi was there more, and the other was there less. If it were not Xiao Shisi that day, he would restrain himself with Qiao Yu, mostly read Buddhist scriptures in the house, and occasionally say a few words. Qiao Yu was very enthusiastic, and he didn't know why, but he had fun in the yard. However, he did not ask Qiao Yu to change his words, even if he called him "the prince" or "his highness", it would be irrelevant.

This is a necessary flaw or a flaw.

He thought casually, if the deposed prince Jingyan was really well-behaved and calm, he would not make any mistakes at all, but he would not be relieved by Emperor Yuande.

The place where the place was fully placed was in a dilapidated cottage in the backyard of Taiqing Palace. Even in winter, the smell of mold was very strong. Xiao Shisi went in first, looked around carefully, blocking the damaged and leaking areas tightly with old wooden boards and bricks. He lit a candle before he welcomed the prince in.

Defu Dequan and his two were tied up with ropes and half lying on the ground. Dequan was not as good as his brother. At this time, he was extremely scared, trembling all over, and was still whimpering with his mouth blocked. However, Defu was much calmer, curled up and squinted his eyes with a slight light, and his eyes were squinted against Jing Yan and Xiao Shisi.

Xiao Shisi whispered to Jing Yan and told him about the matters he had found and questioned, including the chance encounter between Qiao Yu and Defu Dequan in the imperial kitchen more than a month ago. Dequan was obscene but was blocked by satisfaction. Later, Liuyu reported to him that Qiao Yu's identity was exposed, and Defu had other thoughts, which led to what he was doing today.

Liuyu's name has now been marked in Chenyun Palace, but Sheng Hai reported the list.

Jing Yan nodded slightly. He was not very interested today and asked in a low voice: "Which hand was it?"

Xiao Shisi was stunned. He had done many things for the prince in the past, but he had never been asked these questions, so he did not prepare in advance, but he immediately reacted. He took two steps forward and took the cloth from Daquan's mouth. Daquan's voice was hoarse by the medicine and could no longer shout loudly. Xiao Shisi kicked him, but he didn't dare to use force, for fear of leaving any traces, so he could only ask a few words.

Dequan glanced at Defu, probably not getting hurt to the bone, but at this time he was very strict and wanted to kneel down and beg for mercy, but hesitated and dared not speak.

Jing Yan smiled at him and said calmly: "Don't want to say it? Then forget it."

Dequan was frightened. He only knew that the prince was deposed and Concubine Feng was in power, but he did not expect that the prince was not in a slump and had no power in the palace.

Xiao Shisi wanted to ask again, but Jing Yan shook his head. He walked behind Defu, leaned over and untied the rope slightly, looked at Defu, and said confidently: "It's you, he doesn't have the courage."

After speaking, Jing Yan raised his foot and slashed Defu's finger in an understatement, followed by the next one. The fingers of the ten fingers were cut off one by one, and the original shape could not be seen. Ten fingers were connected to the heart. Even if Defu could endure it, he would inevitably twitch all over his body. He wished he could die immediately, but he could not make any sound and could only be in his heart.

Jing Yan broke one hand and moved to the other side. His eyes were deep and sinister, and the black soap boots were covered with blood, and a small string of vague footprints fell. He laughed softly again, "My fault, I didn't expect you guys were staring at this. I heard you still want to touch him? It's really troublesome."

Defu cannot speak or move, and can only bear pain. Jing Yan has always had no compassion. He just crushed his fingers with his heels and said slowly: "I am not a person who is unkind. If someone touches me, it doesn't matter. It's just that I will come back ten times."

The sound of rain outside was getting louder, and the place inside was almost frozen, and even the sound of breathing was almost gone.

Xiao Shisi opened his eyes in surprise and tied them all up again, daring not to speak. In his impression, although the prince had been practicing martial arts since he was a child, he had never done anything by himself, nor would he do these unnecessary things. If torture could make people spit out useful news, the prince would order it. But if this person had no other value, the prince would only take the life of that person and would not even put any attention on it.

Jing Yan has always been doing this. As long as the result is simple, the process will not cause many troubles to avoid making mistakes. Just like this time, Xiao Shisi even thought that if the prince was tortured this time, the prince would not be able to endure his expression.

This is an accident.

Both Qiao Yu and this incident were accidents.

Jing Yan slowly stomped through the ten finger bones of Defu, then slowly got up, walked away a little, and looked at the two of them.

He closed his eyes halfway and ordered softly: "If you have all the money, use the post to add the official position and leave no traces. As for the blessing, use more punishments. Only when you are allowed to close your eyes until the Yin period, do not care about what the corpse looks like."

Xiao Shisi was a little hesitant. If he had used all the posts to add officials, he could have been fooled by drowning, but if Defu was like this, he could no longer be concealed. But he thought that the prince had already broken Defu's ten finger bones, which could no longer be saved, so he could only do so.

He has been a secret guard for so many years, and has been used to seeing private privates in the palace, with countless lives on his hands and lynching skillfully. Even if there are no tools here, he can still be called "blessed to survive, not die."

The smell of blood was soaked everywhere, so Jing Yan retreated and closed the left sleeve to prevent blood foam from splashing on his head.

Xiao Shisi raised his eyelids to look, and could vaguely see a large ball of black thread sewn on his cuffs, but he couldn't recognize what it was. He blurted out: "Your Highness, what should these two people do?"

Jing Yan thought for a moment and said carelessly: "Dequan let him die of drowning for no reason, and then find someone to disguise himself as a blessing to enter the Chenyun Palace. Didn't Sheng Hai not be trusted by Feng Nannan? Looking for an opportunity, they said that they were both bold and reckless and attacked the Taiqing Palace. He broke it. The flowing fish was a human evidence and also a physical evidence."

Now it is the storm. Feng Nannan tried every means to break off relations with the Taiqing Palace. Defu Dequan did this. With her personality, she must be tightly lying in the Chenyun Palace and will never be rumored.

When he ordered these things, he did not treat people as humans, but objects that could be used.

Even though Jing Yan is used to reading Buddhist scriptures, he never has much compassion.

It was probably the fate judgment hosted by the Dafeng Temple that scared Empress Chen. When Jing Yan was just about to know the matter, Empress Chen taught him to read the scriptures and observe the Buddha, and have good thoughts. However, the situation in the palace was not as bad as before, and the situation was too bad. She also wanted to teach Jing Yan how to be careful, be alert, and even take the initiative to kill others.

Jing Yan grew up in such contradictions.

When he was seven years old, he couldn't suppress his inner doubts for the first time, and grabbed Queen Chen's sleeve and asked, "Since I am merciful, why are all sentient beings suffering?"

Queen Chen was stunned and couldn't answer.

Jing Yan understood that I, Buddha, was merciful, but he could not.
