Chapter 225: Confession
Ma sat down again, and Ma Zhou asked: "Why do you want to rebel, whether Zhang Liang has five hundred fakes, etc., you can all tell me in detail." ”
"Yes!" Cheng Gongying said: "When Zhang Liang was in Xiangzhou, one of Zhang Liang's fake sons Gongsun Festival said a proverb to Zhang Liang, and this Gongsun Festival is his younger brother. ”
Cheng Gongying pointed to Gongsun Chang next to him, who nodded in agreement.
"Don't talk nonsense, pick up the key points, don't say something that you don't have, what did Gongsun Jie say to Zhang Liang?" Ma Zhou said impatiently.
Who cares about who you say has something to do with whom, continue your performance and don't talk nonsense.
"Gongsun Jie said to Zhang Liang, the lord of the bow chief is in Bedu! So after hearing this, Zhang Liang thought that he was the future lord of the world, so he was dissatisfied and wanted to replace Datang! Cheng Gongying said.
"It's really a toad who wants to eat swan meat, Zhang Liang is simply stunned, so he believes other people's nonsense." Ma Zhou was disdainful, he didn't believe that with just one sentence, Zhang Liang had the life of the lord of the world.
"Then what does this have to do with you, don't try to lie, Zhang Liang has already explained clearly, the little bit of collusion between him and you." Ma Zhou said.
He can be regarded as having learned Di Renjie's methods, and the lie comes as soon as he opens his mouth, but he doesn't blush at all, as if it's really the case.
"Later, Zhang Liang came to me and said, you used to say that Your Majesty is the lord of the world, why can you say it so accurately, it is really a god! Why don't you show me what my future holds? Cheng Gongying told Zhang Liang about looking for him that day.
"And what did you say?" Ma Zhou asked, although he had already guessed a few points, it was only useful for Cheng Gongying to say it himself.
"At that time, Zhang Liang's expression and tone were really obvious, and I could see Zhang Liang's thoughts at a glance."
"In addition, I was short of money at the time, so I said against my will, 'You lie like a dragon, you will be rich!' Zhang Liang listened to my words, laughed heartily, and gave me a lot of reward money at that time. ”
"The villain is just eating a mouthful, so he will follow Zhang Liang's meaning, and he definitely doesn't want to rebel! Please also ask the squire to be clear. Cheng Gongying said and knelt on the ground.
"But anything else?" Ma Zhou asked.
Ma Zhoucai didn't believe that Cheng Gongying said that it was so simple to just eat with a mouthful, if you didn't think anything crooked, you would say this to Zhang Liang.
Where to go, you can't eat with a mouthful of food, you have to go along with Zhang Liang's rebellion, and you can't complain about others by yourself.
"In addition to this time, Zhang Liang also talked to me a few times......" Cheng Gongying poured beans into a bamboo tube and said everything in an uproar.
"I was also fascinated by a ghost for a while, so I fell for Zhang Liang, and I hope that the three of them will be clear." Cheng Gongying wept bitterly and kowtowed.
Ma Zhou was disdainful, who cares if Cheng Gongying is a ghost or not, since he dares to conspire with Zhang Liang to rebel, he must be ready to lose his head. Flash Dance
"Anything else?" Ma Zhou asked.
"It's gone! I've said it all! There is absolutely nothing to hide. Cheng Gongying said, it's all here, what else does he dare to hide.
"Give him the confession and let him sign it!" Ma Zhou said to the clerk who was making a note on the side.
The clerk got up, took the written confession, pen and ink and came to Cheng Gongying and asked him to sign and draw the pledge.
Cheng Gongying glanced at it casually, then wrote his name on the paper, pressed his handprint, and then put the paperwork back.
"Escort Cheng Gongying down first!" Ma Zhoudao, the official stepped forward and escorted Cheng Gongying back to the prison.
"Now it's your turn! Tell me how you conspired with Zhang Liang to rebel? Ma Zhou looked at Zhang Liang's false grandson Chang Dao.
"I said, I say everything, once Zhang Liang called me to the study, chatted with me for a while, and then suddenly said to me.
"He has a concubine, and I heard the fortune teller say that his concubine has the life of Wang Ji, and there is a dragon and phoenix and Ming in her life."
Dragon, phoenix and Ming?
If Zhang Liang's concubine is a phoenix, then who is a dragon, isn't this Zhang Liang implying that he is a dragon.
What does this dragon represent? Isn't it the Ninety-Five!
Zhang Liang's words revealed that he wanted to be the emperor.
It's a pity! Zhang Liang had this idea, but he didn't have this life.
"He also asked me what this meant, and I saw that he had already turned against him at that time, so I had to lie to Zhang Liang that there was his name Zhang Liang in the book."
"After Zhang Liang heard this, he believed it and gave me a lot of money, asking me to recruit some tall and powerful people for him, and recruit them to Zhang Liang's command in the name of Zhang Liang's fake son."
Cheng Gongying confessed, and Gongsun Chang naturally had no need to hide anything, anyway, the mastermind Zhang Liang and the military advisor Cheng Gongying all confessed, and it was necessary for him to hide it as an errand runner.
"So, Zhang Liang really has five hundred fakes?" Ma Zhou asked.
"I don't know the specific number, Zhang Liang didn't just ask me to recruit fake children for him, I only recruited more than 200 people for Zhang Liang." Gongsun Changdao.
"Apart from you, who else recruited fake sons for Zhang Liang?" Ma Zhou asked.
Whether Zhang Liang has 500 fake children is the key to this case, and it must be asked clearly.
"This, this villain is not very clear! Zhang Liang didn't tell the villain, and he didn't let the villain know, who else really didn't know. Gongsun Changdao.
"Where are these people you recruited for Zhang Liang now?" Di Renjie asked.
"Zhang Liang is in Chang'an City, and there is a private house in Anyi Fang, and more than 200 people are hiding in this private house." Gongsun Changdao.
After Ma Zhou confirmed that Gongsun Changdu had explained clearly, he asked the clerk to sign the confession for him, and then ordered the official to escort Gongsun Chang back to prison.
"What do you two think about this case?" Ma Zhou asked Sun Fujia and Di Renjie.
If it weren't for Di Renjie's help, it would not be so easy to pry open the mouths of Cheng Gongying and Gongsun Chang, so Ma Zhou did not underestimate Di Renjie, a young man.
"The squire should immediately interrogate Zhang Liang to see if he confesses, and I will take someone to Anyi Fang to see if there are more than 200 people hidden in it, as Gongsun Chang said."
"I'm sure there may be an answer to what we want to know among these people!" Di Renjie said.
Ma Zhou naturally understood what Di Renjie was referring to.
"It's good! I'm going to interrogate Zhang Liang, and there is Lao Di Shaoqing bothering over there in Anyifang! Ma Zhou said.
"This is a matter within the duties of the lower officials, and we should do our best." Di Renjie said.
Ma Zhou and Sun Fujia got up and left the court, and went to the prison together to interrogate Zhang Liang, and if everything went well, the result would be soon.
"Someone!" Di Renjie shouted.
Immediately, a servant stepped forward and saluted, "What do you command?" ”
"Gather the brothers at once, follow me to Anyifang, remember to move quickly, and never leak the slightest rumor, lest anyone be discovered and flee in advance." Di Renjie said.
"No!" The official retreated, called a large group of people, followed Di Renzhuo to Dali Temple, and went straight to Anyi Fang.
