On the twenty-fifth day of the first month of the twenty-sixth year of Yongzhi, the weather was sunny.

The sun is shining on the earth, which has raised the temperature of the capital a little, and it is time to take off the jacket.

But there are places where the sun can't shine, such as the prison of the West Factory, which looks cold and damp at all times.

As a factory company, Liu Jinzhong himself doesn't come to this place much, who calls this place really unlucky.

But today, he came to this place rarely, and he went to the deepest part of the prison.

In today's Xichang prison, most of the officials who have been dismissed are imprisoned, and these people are all victims of the emperor's balance of the imperial situation.

While walking inside, Liu Jinzhong asked, "When did you die?" ”

His tone was calm, which showed that the dead person was not important.

"Just now, I was tortured for a few days in a row, and it is amazing to be able to hold on to today!" Li Deyi replied in a deep voice.

He was in charge of interrogating Wang Hai, who had been in prison for the past few days, and looked extremely tired at the moment.

But no matter how tired he is, Li Deyi has to cheer up, who made him do it now.

Liu Jinzhong did not continue to ask, today's result is doomed, and it is impossible for the emperor to let Wang Hai continue to live.

Torture to death is the best outcome!

When he came to the deepest part of the prison, a smell of blood came to his face, so that Liu Jinzhong couldn't help but cover his mouth and nose.

But I saw a bloodied man hanging on the central shelf of the cell, and his face was already distorted, and at first glance I would think that this was Wang Hai.

After confirming that Wang Hai was dead, Liu Jinzhong asked, "Where is the confession?" ”

Li Deyi beckoned to the side, and someone sent a confession, but Liu Jinzhong had no intention of taking it.

I only heard him ask, "How is it written?" ”

These are all handled by Li Deyi, and he only listens to him: "Back to my father-in-law, these are all written according to your orders!" ”

"Wang Hai confessed, treason and surrender to the enemy for silver, no one instructed or conspired in the whole thing!"

Hearing this, Liu Jinzhong nodded, and the case was closed.

Although he also wanted to slander Dongchang in his confession, it was best to involve Liu Hong and Huang Ting, but he didn't have the courage to do so.

"Put away the confession, and follow me into the palace in a while!" Liu Jinzhong said indifferently.

After saying this, Liu Jinzhong turned around and left, and the emperor might have been tired of waiting for the result.

In fact, Liu Jinzhong could have closed the case in advance, even if Wang Hai was arrested and returned to prison, the emperor would not blame him.

The reason why he has to delay for so many days is just to let Dongchang be impeached more, and the case will be closed too early, and Dongchang will be relieved.

Everything has a degree, and today is what Liu Jinzhong thinks, the limit of the emperor's patience.

When he came to the outside of the Yuxu Palace, he was told by the eunuch on duty that Yu Peizhong was inside, so he could only wait outside.

Although Liu Jinzhong was trusted by the emperor, he actually knew that his status was not as good as Yu Peizhong.

And his goal is to become the next celebrant seal, which is destined to make Yu Peizhong his enemy.

I have to say that after leaving the East Factory to take charge of the West Factory, Liu Jinzhong's whole person swelled.

After waiting outside the hall for about half an hour, when Liu Jinzhong's feet were a little weak, someone reminded him: "Father-in-law Liu, the emperor has summoned you in!" ”

So Liu Jinzhong stepped into the threshold of the main hall and met Yu Peizhong who came out of it.

"I've seen Grandpa Yu!" Liu Jinzhong stepped aside and bowed.

Yu Peizhong squeezed out a little smile, and then directly crossed Liu Jinzhong and went outside the main hall.

After he left, Liu Jinzhong rushed to the emperor's cultivation house, and at this moment he didn't dare to think about anything else.

In fact, every time he came to see the emperor, Liu Jinzhong felt like he was stepping on a tightrope, trembling as if he were walking on thin ice.

Outside the gate of the house, Liu Jinzhong bowed and said: "Slaves and maids knock to see the emperor!" ”

At this moment, Zhu Yujun had several large stacks of folds in front of him, and he was holding a book in his hand to flip through it.

"Errand done?" Zhu Yujun asked in a deep voice.

"Back to the emperor, Wang Hai has been tortured to death, and the confession has been obtained!" Speaking of this, Liu Jinzhong also took out a confession from his arms.

However, Zhu Yujun didn't even look up, but said coldly: "Tortured to death, this Wang Hai's life is really hard enough!" ”

Hearing this, Liu Jinzhong couldn't help but shudder, for fear that his little thoughts would be discovered by the emperor.

"Do you say that he is hard-working, or is it that you are not effective in torture?" Zhu Yujun finally raised his head and asked.

At this moment, Liu Jinzhong was already sure that his mind was seen through by the emperor.

What to do? Admit that your careful thinking will be doomed, so ...... Only find a way to deny.

At this time, the test was quick wit, Liu Jinzhong's thoughts spun quickly, and he quickly made him think of a rhetoric.

"The emperor Mingjian, the slave maid is also for the sake of the overall situation, so he let Wang Hai live for a few more days!"

Although he knew that Liu Jin was quibbling, Zhu Yujun still asked with interest, "Oh? Let's talk about it! ”

"Those officials are staring at Wang Hai, if he dies within two days of being sent back to Xichang, they will definitely not give up, and they will definitely be impeached when the time comes......"

Speaking of this, Liu Jinzhong raised his head and said in tears: "The slave maid has delayed the interrogation process for a few days in order not to fall into the mouths of the officials!" ”

The hall became quiet again, Liu Jinzhong was so nervous at the moment, it was unknown whether he could pass this level.

Outside the Yuxu Palace, he is the governor of Xichang who is feared by everyone, but here he is just the emperor's slave, and life and death are just a matter of the emperor's words.

After a while, I heard the emperor say, "You also have a heart!" ”

At this moment, Liu Jinzhong breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, so he kowtowed and said: "It is the duty of slaves and maids to share worries for the emperor!" ”

"How is the confession written?" Zhu Yujun asked.

Liu Jinzhong replied honestly: "Back to the emperor, Wang Hai confessed...... Treason to the enemy is for money, and there is no one to direct and no accomplice in the whole thing! ”

He directly repeated Li Deyi's words, and made Zhu Yujun understand them simply and clearly, and this result also made him very satisfied.

Although Wang Hai was brought back alive and caused such a big turmoil, everything ended with this confession.

The financial problems and coastal defense problems have been temporarily resolved, and now everything seems to be thriving, which makes Zhu Yujun rarely happy.

Although he was happy, he couldn't show it on his face.

After being silent for a while, Zhu Yujun said: "Send this confession to the Criminal Department and tell them that the case is closed!" ”

"Slave obeys!" Liu Jinzhong kowtowed, and then carefully put away the confession.

"Go ahead!" Zhu Yujun said indifferently.

At this moment, the stone in Liu Jinzhong's heart fell, and he kowtowed again: "Slave obeys!" ”

Then he got up and slowly retreated from the Jingshe, and he breathed a sigh of relief after stepping out of the gate of the Jade Void Palace.

The emperor saw through his thoughts, making Liu Jinzhong feel on the edge of life and death, and at this moment his back was soaked with sweat.

In the main hall, Zhu Yujun put down the fold in his hand, and he didn't plan to look at it anymore.

The content of all the twists and turns is similar, either the impeachment of the East Factory or the impeachment of the West Factory, which makes Zhu Yujun very annoyed.

"Come on, move all these folds!" Zhu Yujun said in a deep voice.

Immediately, he closed his eyes and made a posture of meditating and chanting, and mundane things were interesting to cultivate.
