Chapter 757: Could it be him?
readx;
Jiang Tao gritted his teeth and seemed to be considering the words, and finally said with a miserable face: "The student only wants to die." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½β
Liu Chengfeng couldn't help but feel funny, these people don't know if they are naΓ―ve, if they fall into the hands of Jinyiwei, they can still shout the words of just asking for death, you must know that in the hands of Jinyiwei, giving you a happy treatment is extremely preferential, if you want to die, how can it be so easy, let alone someone like Jiang Tao.
Liu Chengfeng looked at Jiang Tao with a smile, and said slowly: "It's not so simple to want to die, if you can honestly answer the official's question, the official may give you a good time, but if you dare to talk nonsense......" Liu Chengfeng smiled and said: "The official's words, although there is a little threat, but what kind of Yamen is Jinyiwei must also know that the torture in this Jinyiwei is full of tricks, if it is used on you in the same way, it is guaranteed that you will be better off than dead, from now on, I will ask you a sentence and you will answer, if you don't answer, I'll have your bone broken up, you see? β
Liu Chengfeng took a sip of tea, and saw that Jiang Tao's face was already like ashes, so he asked slowly: "What position are you by King Ning's side?" β
Jiang Tao said: "I...... I'm a clerk of the royal palace? β
"Clerical?" Liu Chengfeng looked unbelieving, how could King Ning let a document deliver such important news, but then again, if this person really deceived himself, why didn't he report other identities, but said that he was a clerk? He said lightly: "You are a clerk, how can you let King Ning deliver such a big thing to you." β
Jiang Tao hesitated for a moment and said, "Because ...... Because King Ning is good Danqing, the student happens to have a lot of attainments in Danqing, so he is quite trusted by King Ning, some things in the Jingshi, because the student and King Ning spend a lot of time together, so they know a little, so King Ning sent me. β
Jiang Tao's answer can be described as seamless, an old fox like King Ning is naturally unwilling to reveal a little bit of his chess pieces in Beijing, that is to say, the world knows about this matter, and knows which people are only afraid that there will be no more than ten in the whole world, and most of these people are King Ning's henchmen and backbones, and their status in Jiangxi must not be low, and they must be important people who are running around for King Ning, but these people can't get out? After all, the identities of these people are too prominent, such as the staff member Liu Yangzheng, who has not been thoroughly investigated by the factory guards now, as long as he appears in the Beijing Division, he will definitely be closely monitored. Therefore, it is very inappropriate to let these backbone elements of King Ning come to Beijing.
But casually handing over this errand to others, King Ning must not be at ease, the more people know about this kind of thing, the more dangerous it will be leaked. And Jiang Tao has become an excellent object, although this person is only in charge of paperwork, just a cowardly reader, but he knows some inside information more or less, in this case, why not entrust it to him? Besides, sending him to the Beijing Division is actually just to contact people, although it will take some risks, but King Ning doesn't know that several of his important chess pieces in the Beijing Division have defected, so for King Ning, Jiang Tao's errand is actually very easy.
Liu Chengfeng temporarily suppressed his suspicions and continued to ask, "King Ning sent you to Jingshi, what are you mainly responsible for?" β
Jiang Tao said: "When I came, Mr. Liu instructed me to tell me the identities of some people, and then ordered me to come to Beijing to find them, as long as I spoke to them in code, they would naturally tell the students the latest news in Beijing, and the students could go out of Beijing and return to Jiangxi overnight." β
Liu Chengfeng said coldly: "Who did you tell you about their identities?" β
Jiang Tao's eyes flashed a trace of panic, and after a short hesitation, he still answered honestly, and said: "I only told two people, one is the stall head surnamed Zhao in Dongchang, and the other is the Qianhu surnamed Zhao in Jinyiwei, he said to go to the Qianhu of Jinyiwei to take a look, and then go to Dongchang to inquire again, if the news of the two people is right, go back to Jiangxi immediately." β
Liu Chengfeng looked very dissatisfied, Jiang Tao now reported that the two names have been apostasy, saying it is equivalent to not saying it, Liu Chengfeng urgently needs more characters related to King Ning in the Jingshi, but if what Jiang Tao said is true, people know only these two, which have no value to Liu Chengfeng, Liu Chengfeng snorted coldly and said: "Nonsense, in my opinion, you don't see the coffin and don't shed tears, since King Ning entrusted you to come to Beijing, why only tell you the identities of these two people?" You can reply carefully, otherwise ......" Liu Chengfeng glanced at the Jinyi guard behind Jiang Tao, the captain nodded, and immediately went out, and after a while, he came back with a small hammer and shook it in his hand, looking like he was about to do it at any time.
Jiang Tao was so frightened that he almost fainted, rolled his eyes, and hurriedly said: "What the student said is true, I will never dare to deceive the adult, Mr. Liu said when he came, this time he wants to check the matter in the factory guard, so just look for these two people to contact, and it has nothing to do with other people, so ...... So ......"
Liu Chengfeng just gave up, he knew in his heart that what Jiang Tao said was not unreasonable, the reason why Jiang Tao was chosen, King Ning also had no suitable candidate for a while, so he had to keep an eye on it, it was impossible to tell Jiang Tao the identities of more people, and as Jiang Tao said, since it was to investigate the recent abnormality of the factory guard, it was natural to find the details in the factory guard, and it made no sense to tell him the identity of other people.
Liu Chengfeng temporarily suppressed this matter, and then said: "Okay, then let me ask you again, do you know that King Ning has an important person in the Jingshi?" β
"Someone important?" Jiang Tao was confused, and swallowed his saliva for a long time, and said, "The student hasn't heard of it." β
Liu Chengfeng said coldly: "Really? You'd better think through before you talk back. β
Jiang Tao hurriedly said: "Student...... Students think again......"
Things have come to this point, Jiang Tao understands that no matter how ignorant he is, the commander of the Jinyi Guard is most concerned about this so-called important person, if he can't say something, I'm afraid that he will not suffer from flesh and skin today. Jiang Tao fell to his knees, thought about it for a long time, and then suddenly said, "The student seems to have remembered something." β
Liu Chengfeng's eyes narrowed slightly, and said, "You continue." β
Jiang Tao swallowed and smeared, and said: "Once the prince looked for me to paint, I was talking, suddenly Mr. Liu suddenly came in, saying that he had something to talk about, Mr. Liu's face was very solemn, I looked at him at the time and seemed to have encountered something big, so I deliberately kept silent, Mr. Liu whispered a few words in the prince's ear, King Ning glanced at the student, but it was not good to give the student an eviction order, so he gave Mr. Liu a look, and then the two entered the ear room to talk, and the student continued to paint in the hall, Faintly heard what they said about this man who was in control of the military horses, and what was ...... said."
"What are you?" Liu Chengfeng asked.
Jiang Tao smiled bitterly: "I don't know if it's Mu or Mao, at that time, the students just listened through the wall, and they couldn't hear it clearly, but they just roughly knew that this person was in charge of the soldiers, and it seemed that he had a lot to do with King Ning, and he was a very important person, and it seemed that listening to their tone, it seemed that no one would have imagined that this person would have a close relationship with King Ning." That's all students know, and any more is really nothing. β
These clues are obviously very important, almost giving Liu Chengfeng a key, but Liu Chengfeng's face is very ugly, there are many people in charge of the army in this world, but there are not many important people in charge of the army, in the era of advocating literature and martial arts, the power of the martial arts is pressed to the lowest, even if it is a military attachΓ©, it is even more difficult to mobilize military horses, let alone what help can be for King Ning.
There are only a few such people in the world, but it's not nothing, it's just a rarity, and more importantly, Jiang Tao said that this person's surname is Mu or Mao, in short, in terms of accent, there must not be much difference.
When Jiang Tao said this, a person immediately popped out of Liu Chengfeng's mind...... Mu Bin!
Is that him? He is in charge of the pro-army yamen, and it stands to reason that he also has some military power, but Liu Chengfeng is unbelievable, because he is the most familiar with Mu Bin's surname, how can this person have something to do with King Ning?
But there is also a sentence in what Jiang Tao said, saying that no one would have thought that this person would have a relationship with King Ning, that is to say, this person must be very hidden, and others would never have thought that this person would have a relationship with King Ning, so to speak...... Liu Chengfeng's eyes narrowed, and he thought to himself, if this is the case, then it is not impossible for this person to be Mu Bin, then King Ning is the best at grasping people, Mu Bin step by step from the middle and lower classes of Jinyiwei to his current position, it is impossible to be clean, if King Ning catches the same evidence as Zhao Chuan, will Mu Bin not be confused for a while in desperation?
However, Liu Chengfeng must have enough evidence for this matter, Mu Bin has a lot of personal relations with him, and more importantly, as a commander of the pro-army and Liu Jian's person, once he does it without evidence, he will commit a great political risk.
Liu Chengfeng pondered for a moment and said coldly: "Come, pull this Jiang Tao down and continue to torture." Mr. Li ......" Liu Chengfeng's gaze fell on Li Dongdong.
Li Dongdong said: "What do you command?" β
Liu Chengfeng said coldly: "Inquire about who else meets this condition, and draw up the list immediately, quickly." β
Li Dongdong didn't dare to slack off, he knew that although the matter had an eyebrow, but for the commander, the matter seemed to be more tricky, especially when it involved Mu Bin, so this matter began to become more and more complicated, after all, Mu Bin was the former commander, and the influence within Jinyiwei was still there, and the news would spread sooner or later, and it would not be good to make a fuss at that time.
