My father Zhu Gaoxu

Chapter 469

Jin Yi Wei Zhao prison.

Wang Zhi sat on a chair with his legs crossed, reading the prisoner's confession in his hand.

On the rack next to them, there are several prisoners with bloody flesh tied up. When these people were in the Shandong officialdom, everyone would stamp their feet and the ground in Shandong would tremble. But here in the imperial prison, they are just the last ones. Low-level prisoners.

"What a Zhang Hai, he actually concealed so much information before. Commander Liu was really confused and didn't even interrogate them carefully!"

Wang Zhi sneered after reading the confession.

In this confession, Zhang Hai and others confessed a lot of new information, including records of their interactions with officials in the DPRK when they were officials in Shandong. Although these records cannot prove that officials in the DPRK colluded with them, in Wang Zhi It seems that this confession is enough to drag more officials into trouble.

"I know, Zhang Hai and the others confessed to so many people at once. If we investigate them one by one, will it cause public outrage?"

At this time, a Qianhu next to him asked Wang Zhi cautiously.

The name of this Qianhu is Wu Guang. When Zhu Zhanji and Wang Zhi were kidnapped, he was the one who went to Qingzhou to bring in reinforcements. Although it didn't have any effect in the end, Wang Zhi took advantage of his hard work. After returning to Beijing, he was promoted to Qianhu.

Wu Guang is a shrewd person and knows how to observe people's words and emotions, and soon became Wang Zhi's right-hand man.

"It doesn't matter, Your Majesty is extremely furious about the Shandong incident, especially because the grandson and us were kidnapped and almost lost our lives in Shandong, so this matter must be investigated to the end!"

Wang Zhi waved his hand and said.

Regarding this group of officials in Shandong, in addition to his personal grudges, he also wanted to use this to frighten the officials. At the same time, he announced to them that from now on, he, Wang Zhi, would have the final say on the Jin Yiwei.

"This... ok!"

Although Wu Guang felt something was wrong in his heart, he did not dare to disobey Wang Zhi's wishes, so he had no choice but to nod.

The confession was obtained, but Wang Zhi was in trouble, because according to the rules of the Jinyiwei, generally only the commander of the Jinyiwei was qualified to submit the confession of the prisoner or important information to Zhu Di, and then Zhu Di would give it to him after his approval. Give it to Jin Yiwei to execute.

In other words, although Wang Zhi interrogated the confession, he was not qualified to hand it over and had to go through Liu Mian's hands.

"It's too bad, Liu Mian and I are in such a deadlock, he is definitely not willing to help me submit this confession!"

Wang Zhi frowned and muttered to himself.

"Tongzhi, I don't think so. Although the commander is at odds with you, the Shandong case was ordered by His Majesty, and he must submit a report to Your Majesty within a certain period of time. If he can't even produce a confession by then, then In the end, it was him who was unlucky."

Wu Guang smiled and helped Wang Zhi analyze it.

"It makes sense. The prison matters are now under my control, and only I can produce the confession. If he doesn't use it, then he will wait to be punished by His Majesty!"

Wang Zhi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and after saying that, he excitedly went to see Liu Mian.

Liu Mian was drinking tea at the back office of Fusi in Beizhen. Since the last time he chatted with Zhu Zhanhe, he has become a lot more Buddhist. He doesn't care much about the affairs in Jinyiwei. Wang Zhi can rob him if he wants. Giving it to him made him feel much more relaxed.

"The commander really enjoys it!"

Wang Zhi walked to the back office and couldn't help but smile when he saw Liu Mian.

Liu Mian did not compete with Wang Zhi for power. In Wang Zhi's view, this was his victory and meant that Liu Mian had given up. Therefore, when he saw Liu Mian now, he also had a sense of superiority.

"If you have something to say, hurry up and let your fart go!"

Liu Mian raised his eyes and glanced at Wang Zhi, and then said unceremoniously that he and Wang Zhi had already broken up, so there was no need to be pretending to be polite to him.

Seeing that Liu Mian dared to talk to him like this at this time, Wang Zhi was so angry that he wanted to get angry, but thinking of the purpose of his coming, he finally suppressed his anger, then threw the confession on the table and said: "This is You decide what to do with the confession in the interrogation yourself!" "Haha, if you can, take the confession to see His Majesty. What's the big deal for me?"

Liu Mian laughed.

"I can only use you for these few days. After this period of time, I will naturally have the opportunity to present it to His Majesty in person!"

Wang Zhi also replied unceremoniously, although Liu Mian has not been completely excluded by him, but it is almost the same. As long as he handles the case well and with Zhu Zhanji's support, it is very likely that Liu Mian will be squeezed out in one fell swoop. .

"Young people are really confident, but I want to warn you that if you continue to investigate this case in Shandong, it will never do any good!"

Liu Mian finally warned lightly.

The confessions produced during Wang Zhi's interrogation were actually obtained through severe torture. The authenticity itself has to be questioned. Moreover, an official in the court like him would definitely arouse the common anger of all officials. In addition, Jin Yiwei He was already ostracized by officials, so submitting this confession would likely trigger a backlash from the court.

"Don't worry about it, I know better than you what to do!"

Wang Zhi snorted coldly. He didn't believe what Liu Mian said. In his opinion, Liu Mian said these just to prevent him from making meritorious deeds.

"Good words can't persuade a damn ghost!"

Liu Mian shook his head, but finally took up the confession.

Looking at Liu Mian's actions, Wang Zhi also sneered. After saying so much, wouldn't he still have to use the confession he produced during the interrogation to give a report to His Majesty?
"Farewell!"

Wang's goal was achieved and he turned around and left with satisfaction.

Liu Mian looked at Wang Zhi's leaving figure, but couldn't help but sneer at the corner of his mouth.

Although he has decided to leave Daming and go to Tianzhu, he will not leave in such a dejected manner, and he must have someone to support him when he leaves.

Liu Mian briefly reviewed the confession and felt more confident.

However, Liu Mian did not immediately go to the palace to see Zhu Di. Instead, he called a confidant. This man's name was Liu Ke. He was Liu Mian's nephew and his best confidant in Jinyiwei.

"Have you collected all the things I asked you to collect?"

When Liu Mian saw Liu Ke coming in, he immediately asked him.

"Uncle, don't worry. Although Wang Zhi has taken over the imperial prison, it is still easy to get in and out of the imperial prison according to my previous methods. I have collected all the things you want."

Liu Ke smiled and said, taking out something from his arms and presenting it to Liu Mian with both hands.

Liu Mian took it and looked at it, then nodded with satisfaction, returned the thing to Liu Ke and said: "Go and do as I told you before!"

"Uncle, you have to think carefully. If you really want to hand over this thing, you will be the first to be unlucky!"

Liu Ke said with a solemn expression at this time.

"Nonsense, of course I know I'm the unlucky one, but don't worry, I have other plans!"

Liu Mian said, patting his nephew on the shoulder.

Several of Liu Mian's sons were ineffective, but this nephew was extremely shrewd, so he always wanted to train him to succeed him. However, this matter was of great importance and he did not tell Liu Ke in advance.
