Gao Yanyang pleaded guilty, and Chen Xiaoting was also relieved.

Although Gao Yanyang's crime has been clearly revealed, he himself admitted that the effect is certainly better.

Just as Chen Xiaoting was about to continue talking, he heard Shen Yue say: "Chen Zongqi said, you sold a lot of the grain in Chang Ping's warehouse to the Hu people?" ”

Now that the Golden Horde's armies are cruising outside the Great Wall, a major war may break out between the two countries at any time, and Gao Yanyang's behavior can be said to be treason.

When his crime was pointed out, Gao Yanyang knew that he had no chance of survival, which made his heart settle down.

I only heard him say: "That's right, a lot of grain was bought by me outside the border!"

"In fact, most of the more than 200,000 stone of grain that I lost was sold by me as early as a year ago, so the prices in Luyang City will skyrocket at the beginning of the year!"

This is very puzzling to everyone here, isn't the turmoil of soaring prices at the beginning of the year caused by the profiteers in tandem?

"What do you mean by that?" Shen Yue asked coldly.

Gao Yanyang explained: "Last year, we sold a large amount of grain from Changping's warehouse, but we had to face repeated inspections by the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of War at the beginning of this year, so the transfer envoy Yamen bought a large amount of grain from various prefectures! ”

Hearing this, Cao Yunchun, who had not spoken, said: "You need a lot of silver to buy grain, where did you come from?" ”

Gao Yanyang couldn't help laughing, as if this was his proud masterpiece, and he only heard him say: "Of course, the silver is the silver of the transfer envoy Yamen, and there is a sum of money for the purchase of grain storage!" ”

"Li Wenzhi, they just let you come nonsense? There is a shortage of more than 100,000 or 200,000 stone grain, this is going to lose your head! Cao Yunchun continued, he can be sent as a eunuch to guard the town, and his brain is also very bright.

Gao Yanyang replied: "This is because the actual grain stored in the yamen has always been different from the books!" ”

"Li Wenzhi is old, Cao Jing is not good at accounting, they have always thought that the food gap is twenty or thirty thousand stones, and this time it is the same, so they gave me the right to buy grain directly!"

Speaking of this, Gao Yanyang said with a mocking smile: "Don't think that I am the only one who is greedy for the grain in the warehouse, and the two of them have not done much of this, and I have always been the one who helped them!" ”

Seeing Gao Yan's pride, Shen Yue couldn't help but reprimand angrily: "Because you are a raccoon dog!" ”

Gao Yanyang hurriedly nodded and said, "The adults are right, Li Wenzhi and I are the same dog, but I am more courageous than them!" ”

At this time, Gao Yanyang completely let go of himself, no one asked him, only listened to him continue: "All this has been done seamlessly, most of the grain has been purchased by me in the regular closing positions in various places, and I have barely been deceived to get through!" ”

"It's not surprising that the price of grain in Luyang City has risen when the surplus grain in the market has decreased, but I didn't expect that those grain merchants had such a big appetite and raised the price of grain several times!"

Chen Xiaoting also heard these words, he really didn't expect that the world was really different from what he understood.

"This incident made me worry for a while, but fortunately, it passed smoothly, and then another incident happened, which really scared me!" Gao Yanyang also showed an expression of memory at this time.

I have to say that he has a talent for storytelling, and everyone can't bear to interrupt him, waiting for his performance.

"Sun Yaolin, the newly appointed Ji Cheng in the yamen, he looked through all the account books, but this is not the most terrifying...... He actually carried me behind my back to check that there was grain in each warehouse! ”

At that time, Chen Xiaoting knew that Sun Yaolin's death was an internal ghost, but he didn't expect it to be such a big ghost as Gao Yanyang.

Sun Yaolin looked through the account books, and then checked the actual grain stocks that were often closed everywhere, and it was likely that he would find something wrong, which was indeed a trouble for Gao Yanyang to get rid of.

Sure enough, I only heard Gao Yan Yang say: "So I used a little trick to let Sun Yaolin die!" ”

Gao Yanyang is so honest, he can be regarded as a character who can afford to put it down, and many things can be explained now.

At this time, Shen Yue asked, "Since you have no last resort, why did you still collapse?" ”

Everyone present was very concerned about this issue, and Gao Yanyang only showed a helpless expression at this time and said: "It's up to people to make things happen, and it's up to heaven to make things happen!" ”

Speaking of this, Gao Yanyang even raised his head, looked at the sky that did not exist on the top of the cell and scolded: "It's all to blame on this thief!" ”

"The climate has not warmed up in the spring of this year, but I have ignored this, and I will lose here!"

Speaking of this, Gao Yan Yangcai faced Shen Yue and the others: "After the inspection of the Ministry of Household Affairs, I sold a lot of grain in the granary, and I originally thought of relying on the replenishment of the new grain received in July and August, but who knows...... The grain production in Yongxi has been reduced in a large area this year! ”

At this time, Cao Yunchun interrupted: "So, your plan is unsustainable, and when there is no food to distribute, you can only let the army make trouble?" ”

Gao Yanyang couldn't help but be silent, the matter was almost explained here, and he finally said: "All this is my guilt, and it has nothing to do with anyone else!" ”

At this time, Shen Yue asked, "You are so frustrated, why?" ”

Gao Yanyang is an official of the imperial court, and although it is not uncommon for officials to be greedy for ink, it is extremely rare for him to go crazy like him.

At this time, Gao Yanyang said: "Because...... I want money to take care of the top and bottom, otherwise I will stop at this envoy position for the rest of my life! ”

"Li Wenzhi is bent on helping Cao Jing to ascend to the position, I and Cao Jing are on the same page, if I don't find a way to climb up, I'm afraid I will have to resign as soon as he takes the position!"

This reason is so reasonable that it is impossible to fault it, because a large part of it is true.

Gao Yanyang was still a little complacent at this time, and he quickly thought of this answer, and now he only needs to do the last step to keep his family.

At this point, Shen Yue and Cao Yunchun had nothing to ask, and everything was already clear.

A lieutenant wrote down everything he had just said, took the confession to Gao Yanyang, and now it was time to sign it.

But Chen Xiaoting always felt that something was not right, was it all too smooth?

At this time, he was still digesting the information Gao Yanyang said, and he couldn't figure out what was wrong for a while, so he watched Gao Yanyang sign his name with a pen and press his handprint at the same time.

Then Gao Yanyang put the pen aside, and then the whole person was helped down, looking like he was hugging his head and crying.

Suddenly, Gao Yanyang immediately straightened up and let out a maniacal laugh.

"Hahaha...... Hahaha...... Damn me, damn it......"

Everyone present was a little puzzled, and they secretly said what kind of madness is high-faced, can you escape the sanction by pretending to be crazy?

But at this time, I only heard Chen Xiaoting exclaim: "He's vomiting blood, ...... Find a doctor! ”

Everyone looked intently, and sure enough, when Gao Yan laughed, he was already spitting blood foam from his mouth.

The lieutenants hurriedly went out to find the doctor, but within a minute, Gao Yanyang completely stopped moving.

The doctor didn't come so quickly, but the servants in the prison were on standby, and Gao Yanyang's death was officially confirmed.

Kneeling in front of the big guys, he was full of nervousness and said: "Lord Qianhu, Gao Yanyang took poison and died, and the poison was hidden in his fingernails!" ”

I have to say that this guy was carefully examined, and he found the residual poisonous powder in the nail cover.

Such a strong poison is obviously not something that can be obtained by ordinary people.

At this time, everyone had a question, where did Gao Yanyang's poison come from?

There are two possibilities, either Gao Yanyang brought it with him before he was arrested, or there were ghosts in the 100 households in charge.

At this time, Shen Yue said angrily: "Liu Siqin, what's the matter? ”

Having such a thing happen in front of Cao Yunchun was a great loss of face for Shen Yue.

And the matter is not so simple, the case involved in Gao Yanyang has already been investigated by Qin Cha, but now he is dead in Jinyiwei's prison, no matter what, it is difficult for Shen Yue to explain in front of Qin Cha.

Cao Yunchun was also unhappy at this time, or he had just become unhappy.

I saw him stand up and say, "Lord Shen, your subordinates should also be in charge, is your Jinyi Guard prison a broken piece of copper and iron?" ”

After saying this, Cao Yunchun took his subordinates away, leaving behind the Jinyi guards who did not dare to come out of the prison.

At this time, Liu Siqin knew that he could deny it, so he could only kneel down and confess: "My lord, you are guilty of despicability!" ”
