Zheng Xuan poured beans into the bamboo tube and explained the ins and outs of the whole thing clearly. He was so cooperative that Sun Qing had to call the female guard she kicked out back and record it together.

Too much content, a person will get tired and cut off his hand.

Cao Miao was in charge of asking questions. He is not worried about whether Zheng Hui is honest or not, Zheng Hui has completely collapsed, and the possibility of lying is extremely small. He has only two tasks: one is to lock down the relationship between this matter and Fei Yi, and the other is to link this matter to Zhuge Liang as much as possible.

Zheng Xuan is not qualified to contact Zhuge Liang directly, only has direct contact with Fei Yi. What Cao Miao has to do is to convert Fei Yi's promise into Zhuge Liang's promise, at least it makes people feel that it is possible.

Proportionality is important. It's too clear and unreasonable. It's too vague and doesn't show enough evidence. It must be said just right, so that it can be both reasonable and reasonable, and there is no suspicion of coerced confessions, induced confessions, or even fabrications.

Half an hour later, the first trial ended. Sun Qing and the others were very excited. After a busy night, I finally got the confession I wanted, I can go back to wash and sleep, and report with peace of mind when I get up tomorrow.

Cao Miao shattered their illusions. He asked Sun Qing to take the list of inquiries and re-examine it again to see if Zheng Xuan's confession was consistent, so that he would not be open-mouthed, perfunctory, or even mixed with lies with ulterior motives to deliberately mislead them.

Sun Qing was very reluctant, but he didn't dare to disobey Cao Miao. She was also afraid that there was a problem with the confession, and Mrs. Sun's anger was not a joke.

As Cao Miao expected, after reviewing the two questions, Zheng Hui's confession changed slightly.

The question is: What are the conditions for Fei Yi to agree?

Zheng Xuan's first answer was Cang Cao Peng, but the answer to the review was Cang Cao. Cangcao Peng is more than 300 stone officials, and Cangcao is 200 stone officials, it seems that the gap is not big, but Cangcao Peng is a Cao chief, and theoretically needs Zhuge Liang's permission. If Fei Yi dares to agree to this condition, he will inevitably get Zhuge Liang's tacit approval, but Cangcao officials don't have to, just report it afterwards.

Cao Miao immediately turned his face and pointed at a strong man. The strong man didn't say a word, regardless of Zheng Hui's desperate struggle, picked up Zheng Xuan, and went to the next door.

The screams like killing pigs came from next door, and Sun Qing and the others changed their faces and fidgeted, as if they had hemorrhoids.

Cao Miao's face did not change color, and he drank tea calmly.

When Zheng Hui was sent back, he was in tears, trembling all over, and the back of his clothes was stained with blood, which made Sun Qing and the others tremble.

Cao Miao met Zheng Xuan's resentful gaze and sneered: "Isn't it cool?" I will do what I say, and if I give you ten chances, I will definitely give you ten chances, only more, not less. So you'd better answer carefully, don't try to fool around, or I'll make you so cool that you can't even forget it. ”

"You ......" Zheng Xuan couldn't cry, and couldn't even say a complete sentence.

"You want to curse me? Save your energy. Cao Miao sneered: "If the curse could work, the world would have been peaceful a long time ago." He waved his hand and motioned for Sun Qing to continue the review. If you make a mistake once, let him be cool once. Ten men were not enough, so he brought ten more men from the camp until he was satisfied. ”

"Whoa." Sun Qing bowed in response, his voice trembling a little.

Cao Miao looked at her. "What did you just say? I repeat, I didn't hear clearly. ”

Sun Qing was startled, and hurriedly replied loudly: "My subordinates understand." Ten people are not enough, and ten more people will be transferred until he is satisfied. ”

Cao Miao nodded with satisfaction and motioned for Sun Qing to continue.

Zheng Xuan wanted to cry without tears, and stumbled on the ground with his head. Sun Qing was afraid that he would commit suicide, so he ordered someone to tie him up. Zheng Xuan wanted to bite his tongue and kill himself, but Sun Qing drank to block his mouth, and he was in a hurry for a while.

Cao Miao was a little impatient. "If he wants to die, let him die. When he died, he was sent to Fei Yi's residence to show the public, and the confession was written casually. Let's just say that he not only likes men's style, but also likes all kinds of livestock, even chickens, ducks and geese. ”

When Zheng Xuan heard this, he suddenly felt like his backbone had been pulled out, and he didn't move. Dirty blood flowed down both legs, and the stench was intimidating.

Sun Qing endured nausea for retrial. Zheng Xuan couldn't speak, no matter what she asked, she could only nod her head in approval.

After the review, it was almost dawn.

Zheng Hui was certainly dying, and Sun Qing and the others were also exhausted. originally wanted to learn interrogation skills from Cao Miao, but now it seems that they need to practice their nerves first. There was no ability to bear it, and before the prisoners confessed, they collapsed first.

After confirming that the confession was correct, Cao Miao asked Sun Qing and others to transcribe it, so that it could be sent over when Mrs. Sun got up. He got up, yawned, and walked out of the cell.

The night was dark, and there was silence in the camp. Except for the soldiers on duty, everyone slept soundly. Even the soldiers on duty were the most sleepy, their footsteps were heavy and their pace was much slower.

Cao Miao looked around and glanced at Ah Hu. Ah Hu understood, lightened his steps, walked forward more than a dozen steps, looked around, and saw that no one was paying attention, so he waved his hand to signal Cao Miao to follow.

The two of them took advantage of the gap in the patrol to sneak out of the relief camp.

Standing on the side of the long causeway by the camp, Ah Hu stood on guard in the distance, Cao Miao pursed his lips and learned two bird calls.

After a while, two identical birdsong sounded, and a small boat slid out of the darkness, and a figure on it bowed down.

Cao Miao asked softly, "Who is Daoyou?" ”

The person who came chuckled: "Ice Heart Jade Pot." The boat rowed in front of him, and the person who came lifted the lantern covered with a cloth and illuminated his face, it was Han Dong. During the day in Wuchang City, he rowed a boat, met Cao Miao from a distance, and made an appointment to meet tonight with gestures.

Cao Miao handed over an arrow that had been prepared, and then a copper pipe. "Do what you planned."

Han Dong put away the arrows and copper pipes, handed over a copper pipe, and said in a low voice: "Captain, General Cao wants to meet with you." ”

Cao Miao nodded. He also wanted to meet with Cao Su to see what Cao Xiu wanted to do when he sent Cao Su across the river at this time? "Let him go to Shih Tzu tomorrow night. If you can't make it, go to Zhaojunfang the night after tomorrow. If you can't make it, you can do it again. Before the meeting, let him not act rashly. ”

"Understood."

Cao Miao asked some more information and separated from Han Dong. Han Dong rowed the boat and disappeared into the night, Cao Miao and Ah Hu sneaked back to the Relief Camp, returned to the small courtyard, and seized the time to rest.

The next morning, Cao Miao woke up on time, but did not get up. He lay on the bed and closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, until Sun Luban arrived, rubbing his hazy sleepy eyes, barefoot, draped in clothes, and walked out of the inner room.

"So early?"

"It's still early?" Sun Luban pointed to the bright sunshine. "My aunt has come back from the palace and wants to see you."

"What do you see me doing?"

"I guess I want you to accompany her to see Fei Yi."

Cao Miao frowned. "I'm not going. I'm not an official of your Wu State, let alone a subordinate of the Relief Camp, follow her to see Fei Yi, in case she is misunderstood like yesterday, how bad it is. Go ahead, and I'll wait for you to come back and celebrate. ”
