Mingshi

Chapter 1577 fruitless
Wang Tingxiang and Hu Zongxian naturally knew each other. They were about the same age, but they just took two completely different paths.Hu Zongxian embarked on the road of leading troops.And Wang Tingxiang embarked on the noble road of imperial envoy.

Hu Zongxian calmly looked at Wang Tingxiang standing opposite him, with pale hair, pale face, and a dirty cotton jacket, naturally Hu Zongxian would not show the true colors of a generation of governors again.Not to mention a generation of governors, even a generation of emperors, if they are in the current situation, they will not look like an emperor, let alone Hu Zongxian?

However, Hu Zongxian didn't show any trace of fear, let alone begging for mercy.

calm!

Only calm!

Wang Tingxiang is also very human. He has been an official for decades and has personally managed dozens of officials.However, when he collided with Hu Zongxian's calm eyes, his heart still trembled.After calming down for a while, he stepped forward, supported Hu Zongxian with his own hands and said:

"Brother Hu, sit down first."

Hu Zongxian did not refuse either, and with the support of Wang Tingxiang, he fell on the chair. Wang Tingxiang sat opposite him and poured a cup of tea for Hu Zongxian with his own hands. Hu Zongxian picked up the teacup and drank it down. He looked at Wang Tingxiang.

Wang Tingxiang picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Hu Zongxian, but this time Hu Zongxian didn't drink it, but just calmly looked at Wang Tingxiang who was sitting opposite.

Wang Tingxiang sighed and said, "Brother Hu, Jin Yiwei didn't make things difficult for you, did he?"

Hu Zongxian didn't speak, and didn't make unnecessary movements. He still calmly looked at Wang Tingxiang opposite.There was no embarrassment at all on Wang Tingxiang's face, as if the words just now were just polite, and he didn't point to Hu Zongxian to answer.

"Brother Hu, don't you wonder why I came out of Beijing to stop you here?"

Hu Zongxian still calmly looked at Wang Tingxiang opposite, Wang Tingxiang said solemnly: "Because as long as you arrive in the capital, I am afraid that you will die in the prison inexplicably before the trial begins."

Hu Zongxian's calm gaze fluctuated a bit, but then he returned to calm without saying a word.

There was a hint of sarcasm in Wang Tingxiang's eyes and said: "Brother Hu, you are also a sensible person. You should understand the truth that people should not be punished for themselves. Now someone has liquidated your past crimes, but your past crimes are threatening the important people in the court today. , for the future of that great man, you have to die."

Hu Zongxian lowered his eyes, as if he wanted to cover up the unrest in his eyes, but his breathing became rapid and could not be covered up.

"Brother Hu, since other people have murderous intentions, why do you stick to it? Bear the charge of being reviled by thousands of people alone?"

"Whether I have been scolded by thousands of people, what you say doesn't count." Hu Zongxian raised his eyelids, looked directly at Wang Tingxiang and said:

"Maybe after I die, you are the ones who will be reviled by thousands of people."

Wang Tingxiang shook his head and said: "Death is like a lamp going out, you are not alone, once you fight these crimes alone, your family will be implicated, how can you bear it?
not to mention……

You have been blamed for many crimes, why are you doing this? "

Hu Zongxian lowered his eyelids again and remained silent.

"Brother Hu, to be able to arrest you is to have your real evidence. Let's not talk about your corruption and bribery. We also know that you occupy half of the share in Daming Maritime Trade, and we know that a certain person occupies the share. More.

Who are you?

You are officials of Ming Dynasty, occupying high positions.But you are in the same boat as businessmen, what are those businessmen doing for you?Isn't it for embezzling the interests of the Shibo Department?
You are moths, gnawing at the foundation of Ming Dynasty. "

Hu Zongxian frowned slightly. Of course it is true that he occupies Daming Maritime Trade, and it is true that Luo Xin occupies more, but neither of them has a real identity in Daming Maritime Trade. Hu Zongxian knows that Luo Xin is The identity of Daming Maritime Trade obtained by investing in a car and horse company.

If Wang Tingxiang can get the real evidence, it will definitely alarm the car and horse traffic, and it is impossible for Luo Xin not to know the news.In this way, this is just speculation in Wang Tingxiang's mind, or they have heard some rumors, and there is absolutely no conclusive evidence.In other words, they didn't know that Luo Xin was the boss behind the car dealership.After thinking about this, Hu Zongxian's heart skipped a beat. The real target of these people is not him, but Luo Xin.And what Wang Tingxiang said just now was to provoke.

but……

Is it really provocative?
Luo Xin really won't kill him because his existence threatens his future?

"You don't want to be lucky anymore." Seeing that Hu Zongxian still looked like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water, Wang Tingxiang said in a more emphatic tone:
"Based on the evidence we have, not only will you die, but your family will also be implicated. Exile is certain."

"I don't understand what you're saying."

Hu Zongxian said calmly, but his heart was extremely restless.He knew that if there were no powerful people to protect him, he would be doomed.His criminal evidence was too easy to find, thinking of this, he couldn't help admiring Luo Xin in his heart.Luo Xin did things in a clean and tidy way, without leaving any flaws.

only……

Will Luo Xin save himself?
He can't count on others, and only Luo Xin.

Now Luo Xin has two choices, one is to kill Hu Zongxian, the other is to protect Hu Zongxian.

How will Luo Xin choose?

Hu Zongxian didn't know!

However, Hu Zongxian was going to take a gamble. He didn't believe in Luo Xin, but had to believe in Luo Xin. He really had no one who could help him.

If Luo Xin repays him, he will be very happy.If he was killed, he believed that Luo Xin would leave a bloodline for the Hu family, and that would be enough.

Otherwise, once he bites Luo Xin out, he and Luo Xin will be unlucky together, no one will protect the blood of his Hu family, and the old Hu family will never be seen again.

"Sophistry is useless." Seeing Hu Zongxian pretending not to understand, Wang Tingxiang said with a gloomy face: "Even if you refuse to confess, but with the evidence in our hands, you are dead. However, if you are willing to confess The instigator behind it will not only spare your people, but also let you survive."

A hint of sarcasm appeared on Hu Zongxian's face: "If you want to interrogate me, then according to the imperial decree, escort me to Beijing. The imperial decree didn't say, interrogate me here."

"you……"

Wang Tingxiang's expression changed, and he was furious.At this time, he already understood in his heart that it was impossible to defeat Hu Zongxian's psychological defense with words.Hu Zongxian has experienced many battles, how could he easily defeat his psychological defense?
"Why bother?"

Wang Tingxiang put away his exasperated look and looked at Hu Zongxian indifferently.
