Chapter 359: He Wendong confesses
The horror of the edict, everyone who hears these two words can't help but shudder, this is purgatory, that is where the devil stays.
"About ten years ago, I just came to the capital, doing a small business, once I lost all my belongings in the casino, I also lost my eyes at that time, so I thought about borrowing loan sharks to turn over, so someone introduced Jiao Hong to me to know ......."
Under Meng Yan's gaze, He Wendong began to tell the story of his acquaintance with Jiao Hong.
"Later, I knew that he deliberately lured me into the bait, but I realized that it was too late to come over, and at that time I had already helped him sell a lot of stolen goods, and I had made a lot of money myself, so I thought that this was the case, so I just did it."
"Did Jiao Hong let you join the East Factory?"
"Well, a year later, I joined the East Factory under the recommendation of Jiao Hong, but I am not responsible for news investigation, I am only responsible for selling stolen goods to them, and joining the East Factory is also to facilitate the control of me."
Meng Yan nodded, the organization and operation of the East Factory will inevitably require a lot of financial and material resources, not to mention the rapid expansion of the East Factory in recent years, and it must have strong financial support.
Of course, Dongchang didn't look down on the little money they made, mainly to attract a group of people to be secret agents for them, and their purpose was to spread eyeliner widely in various places, so as to achieve well-informed results.
In fact, Jinyiwei's approach is similar to that of Dongchang, but Jinyiwei has its own set of methods for selecting people, which is different from Dongchang's mixed fish, and Jinyiwei is more interested in innocent children.
"Our cooperation is very smooth, he has a way. There is a backer, our business has always been smooth, the government has never troubled me, just like that, my business with Jiao Hong is getting bigger and bigger, basically every ten days and a half months can make an order, a single order to say less has to be a hundred taels of silver, more than four or five hundred taels ......"
"The official is not interested in how big your business is, the official just wants to know. You. Jiao Hong, and the relationship between the three of Xi'er? Meng Yan frowned and interrupted He Wendong's self-narration.
"Yes, that's what the grass people say. That's ......"
"Don't play tricks on me. You said. The official will have his own channels to verify, if the official finds out that you have deceived the official, you will make a mistake. I'll break one of your legs, and you'll weigh it yourself. β
"Yes, yes......"
"Xi'er is my old family, that year her father was seriously ill, needed a lot of money to treat the disease, so he planned to sell her, to the old man for treatment, I saw Xi'er young, looks good, I bought her, put around to be a girl or something, later, Jiao Hong found me, said to buy a girl, I thought, Xi'er is good, I took her from the river to the capital, Jiao Hong fell in love with Xi'er at a glance, said this girl, at the beginning of the period I and he want to buy, who knew that he said that he wanted me to sell Xi'er to a person named Bai Xinyuan, and later I knew, This Bai Xinyuan is his brother-in-law, I was very strange, I asked him why he did this, he didn't tell me, and warned me that I was not allowed to tell anyone about his relationship with me, and neither could Xi'er, in addition, he could give me two copies of the money he got from selling Xi'er, that is, one from Bai Xinyuan, and he gave me another one, I thought about it, who didn't want this double silver, so I was moved, and according to the information provided by Jiao Hong, let Xi'er go to beg near the Deyun Tea House where Bai Xinyuan frequented......"
"So Bai Xinyuan saw Xi'er near Deyun Teahouse and bought her?"
"To be precise, it was Xi'er who was accused by a gang of bastards, and then forced her to beg on the street, met the kind-hearted Bai Xinyuan, and ransomed her with silver money."
"I see, you guys have worked so hard!"
"Master Meng, the grass people really don't know why Jiao Hong did this, but I didn't think much about it at the time, so I agreed to him."
"Later, Jiao Hong asked me to give him Xi'er's deed of sale, and I didn't think about it, so I gave it to him."
"Deed of sale, isn't Xi'er's deed of sale in Bai Xinyuan's hands?"
"The deed of sale in Bai Xinyuan's hand is fake, and Xi'er's handprint and signature on it are fake." He Wendong said, "I specially found someone to fake it." β
"So, Xi'er is under Jiao Hong's control?" Meng Yan Road.
"After Xi'er entered the White Mansion, we rarely saw each other, and I don't know her situation very well."
"Lie, Xi'er often goes to the Riverroom Hall to look for you, that's what you said rarely see each other?" Meng Yan snorted coldly.
"Yes, Xi'er often goes to the Hejian Hall, but seeing me is just a pretense, most of the time it is to see Jiao Hong, they don't know when they got together, this little prodigal hoof, looking at her innocent appearance, I didn't expect to be so in private......"
"When did the relationship between Xi'er and Jiao Hong begin?" Meng Yan was overjoyed in his heart, the relationship between Jiao Hong and Xi'er was really unusual, and He Wendong's testimony seemed to prove that his guess was right.
"It's been two or three years, when it started, the grass people don't know, and Jiao Hong won't tell me about this kind of thing." He Wendong smiled and said.
"Did they have a tryst at the Riverhouse Hall?"
"Yes, the grass people have a long-term private room in the Hejian Hall, and in addition to me, Jiao Hong also has one."
"You said Jiao Hong killed Xi'er, why?"
"After Bai Suxin's case, Xi'er found me, I arranged for her to live in the Hejian Hall, she said she wanted to go back to her hometown in Hejian, I said, if such a thing happens, the government will definitely ask her to question, at this time to leave the capital, the government traced it, that was nothing but also became something, after settling down Xi'er, I found Jiao Hong, and told him the news of Xi'er in the Hejian Hall, that night, Jiao Hong came to see Xi'er, the two of them had a big quarrel, I asked Jiao Hong what was going on, Jiao Hong's face was not good-looking, and replied to me, I didn't know whether to live or die, and then I asked Xi'er again, and she said that she asked Jiao Hong to get back the real deed of sale, but Jiao Hong didn't give it, so the two quarreled......"
"Xi'er wants to get the deed of sale from Jiao Hong, why doesn't Jiao Hong give it to her?"
"According to Caomin's thoughts, Jiao Hong still wants to control and use Xi'er, once Xi'er gets the deed of sale, then Jiao Hong won't be able to hold her, and Bai Suxin's adultery and murder case has a lot to do with Jiao Hong, Xi'er must have mastered something before she wants to blackmail Jiao Hong, otherwise she wouldn't dare to do it if she gave Xi'er a daring."
"You're saying that Xi'er may have some evidence against Jiao Hong?"
"This grass farmer doesn't know, the two of them are very tight, and the grass people don't dare to ask, so as not to arouse suspicion."
"How many days after Jiao Hong saw Xi'er?"
"The next night."
"When did Xi'er arrive at the Riverroom Hall?" Meng Yan asked again. γ
"On the day of the crime, when it was almost dark, Xi'er found me in a panic and told me that her aunt was killed, and Miss was arrested by the people in Dongchang, and then I asked her who killed her aunt, and she said she didn't know, she was in the kitchen downstairs, she was knocked unconscious, she didn't know anything, and when she woke up, she quickly ran out and didn't take anything!"
"At that time, Su Xinzhai had a life case, and the East Factory was subsequently sealed, even if Xi'er was knocked out, she was also a witness at the scene, how could she run out lightly?" Meng Yan asked coldly.
"This grass farmer doesn't know......"
"When did you find out that Xi'er left the Riverhouse?" Meng Yan continued to ask.
"Less than three days after Bai Suxin was arrested, Dongchang announced that the case had been solved, and then, Jiao Hong came over and asked me to arrange for Xi'er to return to his hometown in Hejian."
"Jiao Hong asked you to arrange for Xi'er to go back to her hometown?"
"Yes, at that time, the grass people didn't ask much, so they told SΓΉ Xi'er that they could send her back to her hometown in Hejian, she heard the news, and she was very happy at the time, but she proposed that before leaving, she wanted to see Jiao Hong." Ho Wen Dongdao.
"Oh, did the two of them meet?"
"See, I arranged it, the two of them talked for a long time in the room, and then Jiao Hong called a carriage and left with Xi'er, saying that he was going back to get some belongings." Ho Wen Dongdao.
"Didn't you see Xi'er again?"
"Yes, I asked Jiao Hong later, he said that he had arranged for Xi'er to return to his hometown, and I didn't suspect it, after all, they are that kind of relationship, and it won't be what will happen, and when I go to my hometown during the Chinese New Year, I inquired about my family, only to know that Xi'er didn't come back, I felt strange at that time, Jiao Hong obviously didn't say that he sent Xi'er back to his hometown? So I went to Xi'er's house, knocked on the side, and got the answer that Xi'er really didn't come back, I wanted to ask Jiao Hong about this matter, and then I thought about it, maybe Jiao Hong hid the golden house, I went to ask, isn't that uncomfortable? didn't mention this matter again, until the two Jinyi Guards suddenly came to the door, and the grass people realized that Xi'er might have been killed by Jiao Hong! β
"Our people didn't sue SΓΉ, so how can you conclude that Xi'er was killed?" Meng Yan asked.
"Bai Suxin's case has been convicted of adultery and murder, and the case of this Dongchang can't be turned over by ordinary people, so the grass people didn't think about it for a while, only Xi'er's disappearance, so I knew when I thought about it, maybe you found Xi'er's body?"
"He Wendong, you are still acting, why don't you think that you did those immoral things yourself?" Meng Yan sneered.
"I, I ......"
"In fact, the relationship between you and Xi'er and Jiao Hong and Xi'er is the same, is it right or not?" Meng Yan asked.
"Master Meng, everything the grass people say is the truth, the grass people have had one or two times with Xi'er, but it was that stinky girl who seduced me, she wanted to use me." He Wendong's frightened face was like earth.
"What is she using you for?"
"She wanted me to help her get the deed of sale back." Ho Wen Dongdao.
"He Wendong, there is a price to pay for lying, don't let this official find evidence that you are lying, otherwise you will die an ugly death!" Meng Yan Road.
"Don't dare, don't dare, everything the grass people say is the truth!" He Wendong swore and cursed.
"The official believes what you said for the time being, if what he said is true, the official will intercede with the court and open up to you."
"Thank you, Lord Meng, thank you, Lord Meng!" He Wendong knelt down and kowtowed. (To be continued......)
