Punishment of princess huanzhu's hand

Scorpion, also known as finger pinch clamp or finger pinch clamp, is a kind of torture device specially used to pinch fingers, which is mostly used to interrogate women. It consists of five logs, each 7 inches long and 4.5 centimeters in diameter. Put a rope through the wood and put it in your finger. If you pull the rope tightly, it will pinch your fingers and make people miserable. This kind of torture device was produced after Sui and Tang Dynasties and was widely used in Ming and Qing Dynasties. The pain caused by scorpions is the hardest, because it destroys the hands connected with ten fingers. Many women are forced to confess because they can't stand the torture of scorpions, and even commit suicide with resentment.
