"Can you bear it? Are you heartbroken? Do you think you deserve to die?"

The voice seemed far away, and Liu Jiyu's head was buzzing with a dull expression. He felt that the buzzing voice was heard from all directions, "Do you bear it? Are you heartbroken? Do you think you deserve to die? Do you feel like you deserve to die?"

Can you bear it? Are you heartbroken? Do you think you deserve to die?"

"I deserve to die!" After a long time, Liu Jiyu finally screamed, his face turned pale, his lips lost their color, his eyes showed a desperate light, and his whole body was shaking violently.

Xuan Zhi was sobbing loudly, looking like he was going crazy. He pulled his hair with his hands and slapped himself as hard as he could, "I deserve to die, I deserve to die."

All the Jin Yiwei present were frozen there, and some could not help but feel their Adam's apple rolling.

They were in charge of this prison, and they had seen so many crazy prisoners like this, but they were all tortured crazy by the cruel punishments one after another, but they were tortured to this point with words.

But it seems like it has never been seen before.

They looked at Xia Yuan with palpitations in their eyes. It was this man, this handsome, extremely young man. All the words in his mouth were like sharp swords, hitting Liu Jiyu's heart.

It was like a series of tortures, taking turns torturing Liu Jiyu's heart.

The prisoner's emotions will be provoked infinitely, pierced infinitely, and tortured infinitely.

Joy, anger, sadness, sorrow, grief, fear, panic.

Human beings are born with these seven emotions, but in a short period of time, under the instigation of words and words, this prisoner experienced all seven emotions. They appeared alternately and were tortured in turn, with several emotions rising and falling.

It's crazy after all.

Looking at this scene, Xia Yuan's eyes flashed with a trace of unbearability. If he didn't stimulate him to collapse, put him in a desperate situation, and plant the seeds of fear and despair in his heart, this sword would inevitably be awkward to use.

If you keep moving forward, even if you don't keep it all, it will come back one day.

After a long time, he said: "I will ask you again, do you still want to serve as an official?"

"I'm damned, I'm damned"

"Liu Jiyu, I ask you again, do you still want to be an official?"

Hearing this, Liu Jiyu, who was going crazy, seemed to wake up, suddenly raised his head, and kept murmuring, "Be an official and serve, be an official and serve, yes, as long as you are still an official, as long as you are still an official."

He was like a drowning man grabbing a life-saving straw, or like a man trapped in a bottomless abyss who saw a light. He suddenly fell to his knees on the ground, lying down with his whole body, kowtowing repeatedly, "I think, sir, I also want to

If I want to be an official, I still want to be an official. I don’t want to be a citizen, I still want to be an official.”

"You still want to be an official, but do you think you still have this chance?"

"."

Hearing this, Liu Jiyu froze suddenly. Do you have this opportunity? Do you have this opportunity?

"You have no chance. Even if you still want to be an official, the tens of thousands of officials in the two capitals and thirteen provinces of the Ming Dynasty will not let you be this official! You have offended the entire officialdom. You can't stay in the officialdom anymore. You have no chance.

.”

"No chance."

Liu Jiyu's mind rang again, no more, no chance, no chance.

"Yes, there is no chance. The best outcome for you is to be dismissed from office and have your status reduced to a civilian status. Will you be expelled from the court, will your official status be removed, or will you be charged with the crime!

Your family will remove your name from the family tree, and the schools and academies that were once proud of you will be ashamed of you and never want to mention your name again.

And you and your wife and children are in constant fear all day long, waiting for revenge. The county magistrate who destroys your family, the governor who destroys your family, but the one who destroys your family and destroys your family in the future is not even a county magistrate, just a person.

A bully that you usually look down upon."

Speaking of this, Xia Yuan actually laughed, "Look, you don't have the slightest chance. You have reached a dead end. What are you going to do to become an official?"

"."

Liu Jiyu opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but his eyes were empty and he was so lost that he couldn't even utter a word.

Xia Yuan leaned forward and looked directly at his face at close range, "What do you think you can do now?"

"."

"answer!"

"I, I don't know."

"I don't know? You have reached a dead end. If you want to live, if you want your wife, children, and family to be alive, then you have only one way to go."

At this point, Xia Yuan deliberately paused, and after a moment he said: "You will live on the road to death, and then live after leaving it to death."

"Throw yourself into death and live again."

Liu Jiyu's eyes seemed to light up, and he said, "I will die and then live."

"You have offended tens of thousands of officials in the Ming Dynasty. If you offend them, they will not let you go. They will not let you be this official. But someone wants you to be. Who is this person?"

"yes"

Liu Jiyu opened his mouth to speak, but was stunned. Who is it? Who is it? Who is it?

He thought hard and finally looked at Xia Yuan, "Is it your lord?"

"I have made a remonstrance to His Majesty. I want to protect you and want you to continue to be an official. Why do you think you are worthy of my protection?"

Why.

Liu Jiyu couldn't answer.

"What kind of exam did you take in the first place? Who was involved in the impeachment?"

"I, I am here to advise Mr. Yan, I"

"cheer up!"

"."

Liu Jiyu's body suddenly tensed up, and he took several breaths before he seemed to have managed to stabilize his mind, "Returning to your lord, the memorial from the lower officials is a remonstrance to the emperor, telling the truth that our Ming Dynasty has suffered from many maladies, and the corruption of officials has damaged the national treasury."

In short, the ministers are the ministers of the six ministries of the cabinet, the feudal officials of the two capitals and thirteen provinces of the Ming Dynasty, and the officials of the prefectures and counties!"

"Every word you say is really inspiring, but it offends tens of thousands of officials. Now they regard you as an enemy and want to kill you. You want to stay in the officialdom, you want to be as stable as a mountain, and you want to keep your wife and children.

When you are young, who can you rely on?"

"It's my lord."

"It's your Majesty!"

Liu Jiyu looked stern and quickly changed his words: "It's Your Majesty."

"Why does Your Majesty let you rely on him? Is it because of the memorial you wrote or the advice you wrote?"

Without waiting for a reply, Xia Yuan retorted to himself, "None of that. Everyone can talk empty words. Who among the Metropolitan Inspectorate, the Imperial Academy, the Hanlin Academy, and the Sixth Cabinet Department is not a person who has read poetry and books? Who among the scholars in this world is not?

How many words can you shout? How many people can do it? If you shout these words, can you do it?"

"I'm a lower official."

Liu Jiyu wanted to say that he could do it, but when the words came to his lips, he turned to tell the truth and whispered: "I can't do it, the official."

"If I were you, I would definitely say that I can do it, and my tone will be firm and irrefutable."

"I don't dare to lie in front of adults."

Liu Jiyu fell down and knocked his head deeply on the ground.

"You don't dare to lie, but even if you do, how can I know?"

"Your Excellency has a sharp eye, and you have the kindness to create new things with your subordinates. It is difficult for your subordinates to repay you with their lives. You dare not deceive, and you don't want to deceive."

After Liu Jiyu said this, he stopped talking and just knelt there silently, expressing an attitude of humility and surrender.

"Hundreds of memorials have been delivered to the imperial court, and many more will be delivered in the future. Your Majesty is helping you withstand the pressure. I just hope that one day you can do what you say. Do you understand what I mean?"

"I understand that if you work hard for your father to share your worries for a guilty minister, the guilty minister will be punished by death!"

"Where did the ten thousand deaths come from? I just want you to survive in death."

Xia Yuan's expression finally softened, and then he leaned over to help Liu Jiyu up, looking at the dirty face, "Nowadays, the government and the public are in turmoil, and the people are angry. I can only make you wait in this prison for a longer time. But even so.

, you don’t have to worry at all.”

When he said this, his face showed great seriousness, "I will take care of your wife and daughter, so you have nothing to worry about."

"grown ups."

Liu Jiyu was so moved that he choked up.
