Chapter 416: Retrial of Li Zhipeng

"But there is still a big problem, Lord Qincha should be careful, if it doesn't work, let the subordinate do this matter, and you will command behind the scenes." Wang Chonggu said suddenly.

"What's the big problem?" Besides, he asked.

"Even if you want to go out to negotiate, the main opponent is the White Lotus Sect, especially the White Lotus Sect leader Zhao Quan, if you want to eliminate the White Lotus Sect now, wouldn't it be tantamount to offending Zhao Quan, and even offending the King of Alta, they won't let you have a good time. It's better to handle this matter in the name of the governor's yamen. Wang Chonggu said.

Besides, he said with a smile: "I have received the kindness of Lord Dutang, and it will also offend people if I do it in the name of the governor's yamen, Zhao Quan can ignore it, but if you remove one of the locals, I am afraid that you will offend a piece." I'll go out of the customs to negotiate after I finish this matter, and then go back to Beijing to make a mission, the locals just want to disgust me, I can't help it, but the governor is going to be stationed at the border gate, and they have a chance to deal with you. ”

Wang Chonggu was shocked again, indeed, he really didn't think of this question.

Although he is the Governor, the number one big man in the local area, if too many people below are targeting him, he can't stand it either.

It is not only the lower-class people who have a relationship with the White Lotus Sect, there are many upper-class people who are also related to them, the lower-class people are only the basic people, their status in the White Lotus Sect is the lowest, and only those who have a head, a face, and a wealth can have a place in the White Lotus Sect.

The energy of these people is not very large, but if they are united, it is also very scary to entangle with you.

Wang Chonggu and Fang Fengshi looked at each other, they both had a sense of unreality, the minister with plenipotentiary in his early twenties, this is also a little terrifying, but his scheming is so deep, and his heart is so meticulous, it is unbelievable.

"Thank you, Lord Qincha, for thinking about the lower officials." Wang Chonggu bowed to the ground and thanked him sincerely.

"Lord Dutang is polite, we are all on an errand for the emperor, of course, we must think in one place, work hard in one place, and sincere unity can defeat the enemy." Besides, let's laugh.

He did not simply plan for Wang Chonggu's personal purpose, but to stabilize the situation at the border and not cause chaos.

If Wang Chonggu's governorship can't sit firmly here, can the border pass still be kept?

The two thanked and thanked each other, and left.

Besides, when he returned to the basement, Xiao Jun still didn't appear, and Lord Yan Helm also became air.

Where did this guy go? When is it now, and still have the mind to play around? It's so immature.

Besides, I'm so angry, it's good to say whatever you want to do, you can't just disappear silently.

He wasn't worried about what would happen to Xiao Jun, not to mention the heavily guarded center here, even if he threw Xiao Jun into the tiger wolf's den, he was still alive in the end, and those tiger wolves would definitely die in the end.

"What kind of trick is Brother Junjun doing?" Zhuo Maolin is also angry.

"I don't know."

"So what do we do?"

"Wait for him to show up, there's no other way." Besides, he smiled bitterly.

He really had no choice but to go back to the basement where Li Zhipeng was being held.

Only he can come in here now, even Cao Delin, and they can't enter, so as not to have any accidents.

"Has Mr. Li thought about it?" Besides, he asked.

Li Zhipeng lay on the makeshift bed, with his back to him and the guards, facing the wall, not knowing what he was thinking. After a while, the two guards would turn him over and check on him to prevent him from committing suicide by any means.

"Don't ask me without amnesty." Li Zhipeng said anxiously.

"Ho-ho, you're still reasonable, aren't you? Tell me, you have committed something so perverse that you have to ask for pardon before you can speak. He laughed.

Li Zhipeng did not speak.

"Then you just wait to be exterminated, Lord Yan is ready to explain. If you give a thorough account now, at least your family will be spared. If you don't confess, that's fine, take your family to the underground reunion. And sneered.

As soon as Li Zhipeng heard this, he turned around suddenly, knelt on the ground with a plop and said, "Lord Qincha, no matter how you punish me, even if I am tortured, I don't care, don't affect my family." ”

Besides, he smiled bitterly: "Mr. Li, you are not so legally blind, right?" How to punish the crime of rebellion or treason, it is clearly written in the Ming three-foot law, do you think I can be gracious if I want to? Even the emperor has no problem. Unless you confess all now, I can give you this opportunity to make meritorious service and atone for your sins, or have an excuse to save your family, you are hopeless, and you don't have to think about saving your own life. ”

"I didn't collaborate with the enemy and betray the country, I didn't!" Li Zhipeng suddenly shouted.

"Then why don't you confess? Do you want to rebel? ”

"Of course I don't want to, I don't have the ability to rebel, and my subordinates won't rebel against me." Li Zhipeng shouted.

"That's right, you don't want to rebel, and you don't collaborate with the enemy and betray the country, so what are you afraid of? Other sins, if any, are not a big deal. ”

Besides, I was secretly happy in my heart, what I was most afraid of was that he didn't speak, as long as he opened his mouth, he could get a lot of information, and slowly there would be weaknesses to break.

He is now clinging to the weakness of Li Zhipeng's family and attacking him, although there is some damage, but there is nothing he can do.

He was not deliberately threatening Li Zhipeng, if the crime of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country was true, no one would be able to save his family, only to be exterminated. Unless the emperor uses the power of amnesty.

This is a question that can be answered without thinking, how could the emperor pardon a person who collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country?

In the Ming Dynasty legal code, heroes have several opportunities to be exempted from the death penalty, and there is only one crime that cannot be exempted by the Danshu Iron Deed, that is, rebellion, great rebellion, and the crime of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country is actually better than rebellion.

"My lord, just punish him, this guy won't open his mouth if he doesn't get punished, the nail board we built is useless, let's open the meat first." A guard said angrily.

"That's it, looking at his dragging, it should be the life of the nail board." The other guard also shouted angrily.

"It's not good, it's not good, Mr. Li is an official of the imperial court after all, and a little dignity still has to be left to him, but he really doesn't want to speak, so I don't bother to ask, just hand it over to Lord Liu to ask for a confession, and then he will know how benevolent our Jinyi Sixth Guard is." Besides, he said with a compassionate expression.

Besides, he walked out again, but the look on his face deepened after he walked out.

"What's the matter, this guy still refuses to recruit?" Zhuo Maolin knew that there was no play as soon as he saw his face.

Now that Xiao Jun has gone with Lord Yan Helm, the best way is to get a confession from Li Zhipeng's mouth.

"It's a little different from our expectations, I can feel that this guy is just colluding with the White Lotus Sect to make profits, and he doesn't belong to the White Lotus Sect, and he doesn't know anything about the White Lotus Sect." Besides, there was some disappointment.

Although he had always thought that Li Zhipeng was colluding with the White Lotus Sect before, I don't know if this guy is the leader of the White Lotus Sect, if he really enters the White Lotus Sect, he must be a big boss and can know a lot of confidential things.

Moreover, he repeatedly put pressure on Li Zhipeng by retreating and advancing, just to let him exchange the confidential information of the White Lotus Sect for his own life and the safety of his family.

This is not illegal, after all, even the leader of the pirate pirate can be pardoned for voluntarily surrendering, and the leader of the White Lotus Sect should also enjoy this treatment.

But no matter how hard he is forced, and it can be seen that Li Zhipeng is being forced to a dead end, he still refuses to do this, then there is only one possibility, although this guy has collusion with the White Lotus Sect, he can't get what he exchanged. In other words, he is not an important figure in the White Lotus Sect.

"He is estimated to have been used by the White Lotus Sect." Zhuo Mao Lin Road.

"Well, it looks like it should be now. Since he can't make meritorious contributions, he can only wait for death, pity his family, how can he find a way not to implicate his family? Besides, he frowned.

"You don't have to call him a traitor to the enemy." Zhuo Mao Lin Road.

"It's not that simple, if evidence is found in his residence, or if that Yan Duo is the main move, then there is no way to change the confession, and there is no way for his family to avoid this disaster." Moreover, explained.

"Then let him go, he doesn't think about his family, so why should you do this." Zhuo Maolin said with a smile.

"You can't say that, it's good to practice in the public gate, and you still have to accumulate virtue when it's time to accumulate virtue. His family may not even know what he's doing. Besides, he laughed.

"I haven't heard of this method of accumulating virtue and doing good, you first find out the person and beat him to death, and then save his family, this is considered to accumulate virtue and do good? If you really want to accumulate virtue and do good, you should pretend not to know. Zhuo Maolin said with a smile.

"Two different things. One thing is that it is a duty to do so, and the other thing is just not to implicate the innocent, which is a matter of accumulating virtue. ”

"You have taken all the good things, you are the one who kills, and you are the one who saves people? You're big enough. Zhuo Maolin was unconvinced.

Besides, he laughed when he thought about it, but he was really ready to do it.

When it was almost evening, Sun Hu came back with people, and he confiscated Li Zhipeng's home and military residence, and found a lot of things, but very few could be used as evidence.

There was one thing that made me excited, that is, nine poisons that were the same as the one in Rong Zhongjun's hand, and one was a silver ticket of 200,000 taels, which was issued by the local Hengtong Bank.

"200,000 taels of silver bills, it must be stolen money." Sun Hu rushed to the road.

Besides, he nodded: "For a chief military officer like Li Zhipeng, it is normal for furniture to be around 100,000 taels, and his savings are about 40,000 taels of silver, so it is impossible to have more." His silver ticket of 200,000 taels must have been the stolen money that the White Lotus Sect bribed him. You take someone to check this money bank and find out who the money bank is issued to. ”

Sun Hu took a few people to Hengtong Bank to check and verify.

Besides, looking at the nine poison pills that led to the machine, I was much more excited than seeing the silver ticket of 200,000 taels of silver, which was ironclad evidence. In addition to King Alta, only Zhao Quan has this thing in his hand.
