Chapter 89: A shocking confession

"Yue, Yue, His Royal Highness, Your Highness, your majesty, your lower officials are not ...... Ah, Xia Guan knocked on His Royal Highness, Xia Guan ...... "Wang Ji didn't expect that the person in front of him would be Li Zhen, the king of Yue, and he was so frightened that he fell to the ground, kowtowed indiscriminately, and stammered nonsense in his mouth, but he was afraid that he didn't even know what he was talking about.

"That's enough." Li Zhen waited for Wang Ji to kowtow enough, and then said slowly, not even bothering to raise his hand.

"Thank Your Highness for your grace, Your Highness Xie, Your Majesty will repay His Highness's great kindness with death." Wang Ji got up with a triumphant face, and took refuge in Li Zhen.

Oh, this kid really plans to follow Lao Tzu just like that, damn, what's the use of being corrupt and bribed, and being timid and afraid of death? Seeing Wang Ji performing very happily, Li Zhen really couldn't bear to expose this guy, besides, when he didn't ask what was going on, Li Zhen couldn't decide what to do with this soft bone, so he endured the greasy taste in his heart, and said with a light smile: "Lord Wang, now you can talk about it, who made you make such a shocking case?" ”

In the darkness, Wang Ji's eyes rolled several times, and he said with a smile: "Your Highness, the lower officials are all acting on orders, heh, it is really a last resort, but the lower officials are oriented to the imperial court, hehe, there is evidence left in the hands of the lower officials." ”

Damn, it's all about bullshit, damn it! As soon as Li Zhen heard Wang Ji's words go around and around, he didn't say who made him do this, his heart suddenly became angry, and he snorted coldly: "Speak!" ”

"Your Royal Highness, the lower officials have said it, you see ......" Wang Ji didn't intend to tell the truth he knew, without him, after all, Li Zhen had not yet agreed to his request, so he would tell him at this time, for fear that Li Zhen would cross the river and tear down the bridge.

Wang Ji's mind could not be concealed from Li Zhen, seeing Wang Jigu talking about other things left and right, he immediately sneered and said: "This king only said once: spare your family's life, as for you, this king dare not guarantee, hey, you can not say, as long as you are confident that you can survive the punishment of this king, it is up to you, but well, the life of your family is not guaranteed by this king, you yourself look at it, this king will give you a pillar of incense." Come on, incense! ”

Li Zhen gave an order, his own guards lit the incense, in the dim room, that little incense slowly burned, Wang Jiyi's eyes stared intently at the shrinking incense pillar, the sweat on his forehead immediately came out, at first it was just a little beads of sweat, and then it was pouring rain, and the legs that were originally standing straight couldn't help but start to tremble, and the whole person trembled like sifting chaff, but his teeth were clenched tightly, and he didn't speak.

The incense pillar was not long, and the guards deliberately cut off a section of the boss, when it was not burned much, the incense had burned to the end, and only the last bit of light remained, but Wang Jiwu did not open his mouth, Li Zhen's heart suddenly became nameless, the cold light flashed in his eyes, and a murderous aura suddenly rose, and the incense that was already about to burn out was rushed by Li Zhen's momentum, and suddenly lit up, and then flashed, quietly extinguished, and only a pillar of light smoke drifted away.

"I said it, I said it all!" Wang Ji, who had long been unable to bear the strength, saw that the incense was burned out, and could no longer hold on, so he knelt down in front of Li Zhen and screamed like killing a pig, which looked particularly miserable in this silent night.

"Say!" Li Zhen slammed the table abruptly and yelled.

"Ah, yes, yes, yes!" Wang Ji's originally burly body had already curled up into a ball at this time, his face was full of flowers, either snot or tears, but he replied vigorously while snorting: "It was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who asked the small one to do this, if it weren't for this, the small one would not dare to do it even if he had the courage to do it at this time, Your Highness, there is evidence in the hands of the lower officials." ”

The prince was involved, Li Zhen had already guessed this, but Li Zhen didn't think that the whole thing was done by the prince, and he didn't expect the prince to be so stupid as to leave evidence, and for a while he was suspicious in his heart, and looked at Wang Jidao coldly: "Tell me clearly, how did the prince make you do this?" "Yes, the little one says that, this says that." Wang Ji wiped his tears, stabilized his emotions, and said: "On the third night of the first month, it is about three o'clock in the morning, and the small one has already fallen asleep at that time, and the time estimate is not necessarily accurate, about that number, Zhang Shizheng turned into the small room from the courtyard wall, saying that it was the prince who confessed, and asked the small one to take out the weapons in the arsenal, saying that he wanted to give His Royal Highness King Yue a little good look, and the small one was not so bold, so he said that the things in the arsenal had been put into the account, and I was afraid that it was not easy to move, if he really wanted weapons, The small ones can help the prince out of the craftsmen who have never been in the warehouse, but they can't get so much. The small one pushed and dragged in every way, but Zhang Shizheng took out the token of His Royal Highness, saying that if the small one dared not obey, it was disobedient, and the small one had some handles in the hands of others in the past, and at this time he wanted to disobey the order but he could not get it, but the small one left a little more eye, looking for Zhang Shizheng to come to the token, the small one will store this thing in a tight place, except for the small one, no one else can know, as long as His Royal Highness can let go of it, the small one will offer this thing with both hands. ”

Wang Ji chattered for a long time, and only at the end did he say that the so-called evidence was just a prince token, even if it was not evidence at all, even if he got it, it was useless, Li Zhen frowned, without him, the prince's token was already a lot, it was said that it was stolen by someone, or lost, and any reason can be prevaricated, isn't it?

"That's all?" Li Zhen was silent for a while, and asked coldly.

Li Zhen's question was so cold that the already cold secret room was even colder at this time, perhaps because he sensed the faint killing intent on Li Zhen's body, Wang Ji was so frightened that he shuddered violently, and hurriedly said: "Also, there is also a secret letter from the prince that Zhang Shizheng gave the little one a handwritten secret letter from the prince, and he wanted the little one to burn it after reading it, but the little one was afraid that there would be an accident, so he didn't do it, and the secret letter was still there." ”

Well? Is there such a possibility? No, even if the prince is a pig, the people under him are all old rivers and lakes, how can he leave such a deadly handle as a bullshit secret letter. Li Zhen couldn't believe Wang Ji's words at all, so she sneered and said, "What ability can you keep the secret letter, say!" ”

Seeing that the chill on Li Zhen's body had not subsided, Wang Ji was really a little anxious, and hurriedly said: "Your Highness Mingjian, the small one ran through the rivers and lakes before joining the army, and he also learned a few tricks, the small one burned just a blank piece of paper in front of Zhang Shizheng, but the real secret letter was not burned, if you don't believe it, the small one can immediately go to get the secret letter and token." ”

Uh-huh, juggling? Ha, interesting, it looks like the boss deserves to be unlucky! Although Li Zhen has not yet decided how to deal with this matter, he is very happy at the thought of being able to hold the handle of the prince in his hand, but he did not bring it to his face, but said calmly: "The prince only took part of it, so who took the rest of the lost property?" Where is it now? Well? ”

"Ahh Wang Ji, who was still talking, heard Li Zhen ask this question, his whole body shook suddenly, and he knelt up straight, his face showed a frightened look, his eyes rolled wildly but he refused to speak again.

Hey, it's greasy, damn, this kid avoids the heavy and light, and uses the prince's guy as a shield, hey, damn, don't scare you, you kid still doesn't tell the truth, damn! I want to get away with such a little trick, grandma, I'm really a fool! As soon as Li Zhen saw Wang Ji's face, she knew that this kid was not telling the truth, and her heart was extremely interested in the big man hidden behind the prince, and she sneered and said: "Although this king has the virtue of a good life, he does not forgive the person who deceived this king. ”

"I ......" Wang Ji's face was demented, he couldn't speak, the sweat that had been almost dry surged out again, his face twitched, and it seemed that the inner struggle was extremely intense, which suddenly surprised Li Zhen, without him, Wang Ji was obviously a person who was afraid of death, but now, in the face of the situation that the whole family was killed, he didn't dare to say who the person behind him was, which shows that Wang Ji was already afraid of that person in the bone marrow, otherwise he would not have struggled so much.

"Your Highness, the little one can say it, but please ask Your Highness to promise the little one, otherwise the little one will never say it even if he dies." Wang Ji, who had been struggling for a long time, finally came back to his senses, took a deep breath, and looked at Li Zhendao with a pair of eyes full of anticipation.

"Okay, let's talk about it, as long as this king can do it, he will not disappoint you." Li Zhen pondered for a while, weighed it repeatedly, and still agreed to Wang Ji's request.

"Thank Your Highness Hongen, the little one in the next life is to be a cow and a horse, and I will repay His Highness's great kindness." Wang Jike kowtowed vigorously and said: "The little one doesn't dare to ask for more, I just ask His Royal Highness to save the lives of the little family, as long as there is something to eat, the little one will tell the matter and the plate." ”

Well? There is something wrong with that! Lao Tzu had promised to spare the lives of his family a long time ago, how could he still say this sentence at this point, hey, what is this kid fighting in ambush? Li Zhen had doubts in her heart, and said calmly: "What this king said has never been repeated, you can say it." ”

"Your Highness, the little one heard that there are countless small countries in the Western Regions, and the little one has long wanted to see it, if the little one can send the whole family out of the Tang Dynasty, the little one will come out." Wang Ji finally showed his hole cards.

Uh-huh, this bastard is not at ease with Lao Tzu's strength, and he is afraid that Lao Tzu will not be able to keep him safe, hey, it seems that the power of the person behind him should be extremely huge, so who will it be? It's not difficult to send this kid out of the plug, but if this thing is gone, won't all the cards in Lao Tzu's hand become dead cards, even if you know who is making trouble, what's the use? Li Zhen's mind moved quickly, but his face was very calm: "This king can only promise to send away your family, but it is not the Western Regions but the grassland, of course, this king can ensure that the family has no worries about food and clothing, but you yourself can't leave, if you want to say it, this king is not reluctant." ”

Li Zhen said that it was not reluctant, but he still wanted to threaten with punishment in front of his head, obviously this so-called reluctance was actually just empty words, Wang Ji was not a fool, how could he not hear the meaning of this sentence, he hesitated for a while and did not speak, Li Zhen did not press, just waited silently.

"Good! I say! Wang Ji finally couldn't resist the pressure, gritted his teeth and said a name.
