Chapter 245: Exchange
Regarding Liu Jin's thoughts, Zhu Houzhao was clear in his heart.
What Liu Jin wants to do, Zhu Houzhao also knows, but Zhu Houzhao will not allow him to do so.
If Liu Jin succeeds, then this person will be about to lose control, and there will be no use value.
Liu Jin is a smart person and full of power.
The good thing about such a person is that if you give him enough power and benefits, he will be under your control.
But there are also disadvantages to such a person, once he gains more power, he will gradually lose control, and at that time he will have to kill him with a knife, because he has no way to use it anymore, and he will not be able to recover from his original self.
Zhu Houzhao didn't want to do this for the time being. But it's not that I'm reluctant, but I don't think it's necessary.
As a poker player, you need to have enough hole cards in your hand.
Now that Yang Lian's card has not been abolished, it is impossible for Zhu Houzhao to turn over Liu Jin as a hole card.
When it really came time to turn out Liu Jin, Yang Lian had already been abolished at that time.
Maybe one day he will use Liu Jin, but definitely not now.
Coming out of the palace, Yang Lian got into the carriage and rushed back to her own territory.
Looking at Yang Bin who came out, Yang Lian opened her mouth and asked, "What about that Zhang Laosan, is he still honest?" ”
After listening to Yang Bin's question, Yang Bin opened his mouth and said: "He wants to be dishonest, but he also has to have that ability." Father-in-law, what did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince say over there? ”
Turning his head to look at Yang Bin, Yang Lian said with a smile: "You seem to want to save his life, is there something wrong with you here?" Or did you take advantage of him? If so, you'd better tell us now. ”
"You have followed our family for so many years, although your ability is not the best, but our family still uses you because you can't lie. Do you know why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince uses our family? Because our family will not lie to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. ”
Listening to Yang Lian's words, Yang Bin hurriedly said, "Father-in-law, I didn't accept any benefits from him. It's just that the people below us have made a lot of money in recent years, and a lot of this kind of money is not in accordance with the rules, so if Zhang Laosan is really disposed of, I am afraid that the people below will be cold. ”
"Is it a problem with money? You think so too? Yang Lian looked at Yang Bin and asked with a smile.
"It's never been a matter of money, if he had reported the matter to him, do you think our family would have dealt with him, or would His Royal Highness the Crown Prince have dealt with him?"
"No, no one will deal with him, and he will be rewarded for his meritorious service. But he didn't. Isn't his mind clear? He knew it in his heart, but he just didn't report it. For what? ”
"Isn't it to put the money in your own pocket? This person, once he only cares about himself, then he doesn't need to have a heart, his heart is gone, and his life is gone. ”
Saying that, Yang Lian patted Yang Bin's chest and said with a smile: "Only this once, not for example." ”
Looking at Yang Lian's back, Yang Bin was a little helpless on his face, and finally shook his head with a wry smile, stepped forward to follow, and asked, "Father-in-law, what should I do with this Chen Laosan?" ”
"Dust to dust, dust to dust, where to go." Yang Lian said with a smile: "Recently, our family has felt quite a lot, and I feel that our family seems to be about to start believing in Buddhism. You go back and find a monk and ask him to give a lecture to our family. ”
Listening to Yang Lian's words, Yang Bin's face was bitter.
Are you an old man who listens to the scriptures? Not to mention believing in Buddhism......
As for Yang Lian's meaning, Yang Bin also understood.
Dust to dust, dust to dust, then how to deal with it, according to Chen Laosan's crime, it is estimated that a full house will not be able to escape.
These people are not those officials from the outside. If something happens to those officials outside, maybe they will open the net, or maybe someone will intercede.
But these people are different, they are not even royal slaves, they are the slaves and maids of His Royal Highness the Prince, and how to deal with them is a matter of His Royal Highness the Prince's words.
Returning to her room and sitting down, Yang Lian took a sip of tea, then turned to Yang Bin beside her and ordered: "Bring that Chen Laosan up, there are still some things he needs to do." ”
"Yes, father-in-law, I'll go now." Yang Bin agreed, turned around and went to take someone.
Soon Chen Laosan was brought up, and after seeing Yang Lian, he hurriedly showed a flattering smile, with worry on his face, and pleaded: "Father-in-law, am I okay?" ”
"Yang Bin, go get some paper and pen." After speaking, Yang Lian turned her head to Chen Laosan and said, "Write down all the names of the people who are doing these things with you." ”
After hearing Yang Lian's words, Chen Laosan suddenly looked happy, and hurriedly said, "Father-in-law, don't worry, I will definitely write them all down." This time I will definitely draw a line with them, and if I need to testify, I am willing to testify, and none of them can escape. ”
Yang Lian nodded and said with a smile: "That's the best." ”
Taking the pen and paper handed over by Yang Bin, Chen Laosan didn't dare to be the slightest slack, and began to write after running to the side.
He was afraid that he would not write in detail enough to anger Yang Lian, so he wrote down everyone's names and home addresses, and at the same time, what they did and what they committed were also clearly written.
Yang Lian didn't go to see Chen Laosan, but said to Yang Bin: "How is the interrogation over there?" Did that Li Chuanchen say it? ”
Hearing Yang Lian's question, Yang Bin hurriedly said, "Not yet, that guy has a very hard mouth." I'm afraid he also knows that this time the matter is a bit big, he may still hope that those people can keep him, if he doesn't open his mouth, there may be hope. He probably thought he was hopeless if he said it. ”
"Maybe he wanted to negotiate terms with us, and he felt that if he didn't say it, we might make some terms in exchange with him, such as letting us spare the lives of his whole family. After all, he also knew that he would definitely be a dead end this time, but he should want to save his family. Father-in-law, can we give it a try? Yang Bin said cautiously.
In fact, Yang Bin was not asking Yang Lian's opinion, but asking His Royal Highness the Prince's opinion, and how this person should be dealt with in the end is ultimately up to His Royal Highness the Prince.
"Do you think if we talk about keeping his family, he'll open his mouth?" Yang Lian hesitated and asked.
Although Yang Lian is ready to accuse Li Chuanchen of framing the crime, whether he said it or not, as long as it was written by Chen Laosan, it was all what he said.
But the problem is that if you can really dig out the real people from Li Chuanchen's back and let him really open his mouth to bite, it is much better than doing these things on his own side.
Yang Bin nodded and said, "He now knows that he will definitely die, and if he opens his mouth, the life of the whole family will not be saved." If we promise to spare his whole family, then he should speak. It's just that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is afraid of it? ”
After saying this, Yang Bin didn't continue, but the meaning was obvious, that is, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had to kill Li Chuanchen, it would not be easy for us to save his life, should we discuss it with His Royal Highness the Prince?
Glancing at Yang Bin, Yang Lian didn't speak, but stood up and said, "Let's go and ask." ”
At the same time, he pointed at Chen Laosan and said, "You look at him." ”
After saying this, Yang Lian walked straight outside the house.
When Yang Lian came to the cell, the interrogation inside was still going on.
Seeing Yang Lian coming in, everyone stopped, someone brought a chair to Yang Lian, set the table, served tea, and then stood aside and waited quietly for Yang Lian to speak.
After sitting down, Yang Lian did not speak, but took a sip of tea, and then turned her head to look at Li Chuanchen.
At this time, Li Chuanchen was already very embarrassed, his whole body was injured, and the whole person was tied to the pillar and gasping for breath, and it could be seen that he had suffered a very serious torture.
Many parts of his body are already in tatters, and he can still insist on gritting his teeth and not saying anything in such a situation, and Yang Lian also knows that it is unlikely that he will open his mouth if he continues to fight.
A person's ability to resist pain is gradually increased over time.
Gently putting down the teacup in her hand, Yang Lian said, "Our family didn't expect that you are still a hard bone. ”
"Our family has always liked people like you, and we can negotiate a condition with you. As long as you are willing to confess the people behind you and explain this matter, our family will find a way to save your family's life. But let's say it first, don't think too much, your life will definitely not be saved. ”
After Yang Lian said this, she said to Li Chuanchen: "Think about it." As long as you open your mouth, you don't have to be beaten by us here, and your family can save their lives. Anyway, you don't have many days left, so why not make your life easier for the rest of the day? ”
As if hearing Yang Lian's words, Li Chuanchen slowly raised his head, looked at Yang Lian and asked, "Can you make a number when you speak?" This time in such a big case, can you save my family's life? I don't believe you. ”
"You don't think you have any other choice, do you?" Yang Lian asked with a playful tone: "I think you should believe in our family, otherwise, you have no other way to go, at least this is an opportunity, isn't it?" ”
"Unless you ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to say this, I will never believe you." After Li Chuanchen said this, he stopped talking
Yang Lian looked at Li Chuanchen, slowly stood up, and did not continue to say anything else, but turned around and walked outside.
After returning to her room, Yang Lian said to Yang Bin: "There is no hope. ”
"Does he disagree?" Yang Bin said in surprise.
He really didn't expect this matter, in his opinion, such conditions were already the best for Li Chuanchen, and Li Chuanchen should not expect more.
Yang Bin said a little unconvinced: "I'll ask him." ”
"He agreed, but he didn't believe in our family, and he wanted His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to give him a promise." Yang Lian opened her mouth and said, "But our family doesn't dare to use this matter to find His Royal Highness the Prince. Li Chuanchen thought that he was something, and he dared to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to make such a promise, and he really regarded himself as a character. ”
Yang Bin still asked with some hesitation: "Father-in-law, is it really not good?" ”
"Who is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? How could he accept his threats? If we really asked, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would definitely scold our family to the blood. It's so unclear, how can we do an errand for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? Treat it as if it never happened. Yang Lian waved her hand and said casually.
In fact, Yang Lian didn't want to take this matter seriously, he just wanted to use this excuse to make Li Chuanchen speak.
Since Li Chuanchen chose not to speak, he would not continue.
If he chooses to speak, then he will not take out the news and say it, not even the slightest rumor, and he will let him die in his cell, so as not to leak the news.
But now it's okay, and I don't have to think about it.
"Father-in-law, I'm done." At this time, Chen Laosan stood up and said flatteringly.
Yang Lian glanced at Chen Laosan, then stood up and walked to the front of the table.
Looking at the dozen or so pieces of paper on the table, the ink on them had not yet dried, and then Yang Lian turned to the other side of the table and began to check the names on it.
After reading all the names, Yang Lian said to Yang Bin: "Send our people to verify." ”
Although Chen Laosan may not necessarily lie, Yang Lian doesn't dare to take any risks now, so she still checks it first before talking.
If he makes any mistakes, then His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not forgive.
"Yes, father-in-law, I'll go right away." Yang Bin agreed.
"Take him down, let our people watch him well, don't leak the news as before, don't let him leave." Yang Lian pointed at Chen Laosan and said.
Seeing Yang Bin take Chen Laosan down, Yang Lian shook her head expressionlessly.
He used Chen Laosan to remind himself in his heart, hoping that one day he would not become like him and fall into a fate like him.
Until now, I don't know what my ending will be, and this Chen Laosan is also stupid.
Nanjing, among the imperial palaces.
Zhu Youxiao looked at Zhu Fu and said with a smile: "Guogong seems to have been in the Black Dragon Army for the past few days?" ”
"Yes, after the minister entered the Black Dragon Army, he found it more and more amazing. Compared with the minister's command, the Black Dragon Army is really strong. Everyone in the world says that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the master of military law in the world, and it is even more famous when I see it today. ”
"The minister is really in my heart, please let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince allow the minister to stay in the Black Dragon Army for a few more days, and let the minister learn his skills. I hope that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not refuse this student. Zhu Fu said earnestly.
Zhu Youxiao looked at Zhu Fu and didn't know what to say.
He really didn't expect that the Zhu Fu in front of him would be so undisciplined and unlimited.
It's not that he hasn't been in contact with nobles and relatives in the capital, it's really the first time I've seen him like this, and it's even more shameless and unscrupulous than his cheap uncle.
Zhu Fu ran to the Black Dragon Army, not wanting to learn at all, there may be an element of learning, but in fact, he was appeasing the heart of his own prince.
Zhu Fu put himself in the Black Dragon Army, which meant that if he wanted to kill him, he could do it at any time.
This is to show loyalty to himself, and at the same time, he is also telling himself that he will never cause any trouble for himself here in Nanjing.
To put it bluntly, Zhu Fu handed over the military power.
