Chapter 396: Interrogation and Cross-examination
Late at night, the prison of the criminal department.
When Lu Cheng and Tang Ke appeared in the prison of the Criminal Department, it was already midnight, and now Yunjing is very strict.
It took a lot of effort for these two people to enter the city gate, and they entered the Criminal Department of Tiantong Mansion, and even Li Hanshangshu came to take them personally.
"You're late enough. ā
In the prison of the Criminal Department, in addition to Li Hanshangshu, Bao Qingyun and Bao Shangshu are also waiting here.
It is not possible for the Criminal Department to not have a strong person in charge at this time, although Li Han's official position has reached Shangshu, but the strength realm is still a little weaker.
Therefore, temporarily inviting Bao Shangshu to come to help, with him here, it can indeed make people feel at ease.
"Didn't that kid explain anything?"
Lu Cheng asked, Bao Qingyun and Li Han glanced at each other and nodded.
"Except that he said that he was an envoy of the sect when he surrendered, he has not said a word again. ā
"We tried to torture him, but he didn't seem to feel the pain at all. ā
Li Han's words were very evil, and Lu Cheng frowned.
If you can't feel pain, is it possible that this person's five senses are closed?
"Anyway, I'll have to talk to him. ā
After Lu Cheng finished speaking, he walked to the prison door under the leadership of Li Han, pushed open the prison door, and unlocked it with the key, and Lu Cheng walked into the cell where the sect's envoy was held.
He didn't come up and interrogate him, but went around the cell.
After looking around, Lu Cheng slowly sat down in front of this person.
"I'm waiting for you. ā
After Lu Cheng sat down, the envoy of this sect suddenly spoke:
"They, I can't believe it, I only believe you. ā
The sect envoy raised his head and stared at Lu Cheng deadly, his eyes were bloodshot, and his shackled hands trembled violently.
Looking at the sect envoy who was so frightened, Lu Cheng frowned.
"If you have something to say, you can do it. ā
"Let them all go out and not be heard......"
The messenger glanced at the few people watching in the corridor of the prison not far away, and then slowly lowered his head.
Lu Cheng felt a little inexplicable, but since he said so, there was no way to do it.
Gesturing to a few people, signaling them to go out first, Bao Shangshu frowned and took the lead to walk outside the prison.
It wasn't until the prison was empty that the sect's messenger slowly raised his head.
"I am a member of the Blue Dragon Sect. ā
He reported himself to his home.
Lu Cheng looked at his face carefully, although there were many scars on his face, he could still identify his identity.
This person, Lu Cheng has never seen it, not only Lu Cheng has not seen it, I am afraid that I will not be able to find the existence of this person after searching for the household registration of the real household.
Otherwise, Li Han and Bao Qingyun would not have come to him.
"Isn't it you who delivered the letter to the three of them?"
Lu Cheng asked, the man biting his lower lip and nodding with difficulty.
Since it's him, then ......
"Say whatever you want to say to me. ā
Lu Cheng instructed that he needed some information from this guy so that he could distinguish whether this person's identity was true or false.
"That day, after I delivered the letter to the little beggar, I went back to report to the ...... of the Qinglong Palm Sect."
This person told Lu Cheng about what happened after he returned from the three of them that day.
At that time, when he left Baiyun Mountain, he didn't feel very anxious, after all, it was natural that the three of them were unwilling to make peace.
After all, the sect has done so many shady things, can a letter and a small reward be able to let the officials go?
Apparently impossible.
The owl told him to go to the village thirty miles east of Baiyun Mountain to look for the Qinglong Sect.
After the envoy hurried to the village overnight, he saw the Qinglong Sect.
He saw the Green Dragon Palm Sect playing with the Blue Dragon Seal in his hand and sitting on a high stool.
After he entered the house, he bowed to the Qinglong Palm Sect and said:
"Master Boss, the beggar does not agree to make peace. ā
"I guessed it. ā
Qinglong Palm Sect said, his tone was very calm.
"He is correct not to make peace, the key is, does he believe that we are indeed soft?"
"Your attitude, how are you doing?"
Faced with the culture of the Qinglong Sect, he naturally replied respectfully.
"I think the little beggar has believed in our desire for peace. ā
"He believes, that's right!"
Qinglong took charge of the teaching, and got up directly after speaking.
Looking at the messenger who was kneeling on the ground, he let out a burst of laughter.
"Isn't it, he also told me on behalf of the Heng family that he wants to send us all underground to see Lingyun?"
"Exactly ......"
When the Qinglong Palm Sect heard the envoy's answer, it suddenly seemed to be in a good mood.
"In this case, it is definitely impossible for Xuanyuan Ming to interfere with us, and the Zong family is not in the Cloud Palace......"
The momentum of the Blue Dragon Palm Sect gradually became a little creepy, and when the envoy looked at him, he would be shocked by that momentum.
"The subordinates dared to ask ......"
"What is your purpose, Lord Emissary?"
"Earlier, you mentioned in your letterhead that you want to kill the traitor Guo Yunfeng, and you will also stir up discord among the three princes......"
"Do you have a deeper plan?"
The envoy's question was obviously asked in the heart of the Blue Dragon Sect, and he shook his head and said:
"IāI don't have a plan, but the disobedient walker will have a plan. ā
"What do you mean...... Red Zheng Walker, he?"
"Yes, this is an opportunity, we can walk away, but he will definitely take this opportunity. ā
After the Qinglong Sect finished speaking, he slowly turned around and said to the envoy:
"Do you know the identity of the Red Warrior?"
"My subordinates don't know! My subordinates don't dare to know!"
The apostle bowed down in fear, for fear that what he had done was not respectful enough, and that the Qinglong Sect would be annoyed.
"It's okay not to know, but you have to know what this bastard is going to do. ā
With that, the Blue Dragon Sect slowly leaned his face closer to the envoy and said in a very deep voice:
"He wants, murder Yang Yi!"
After hearing these four words, the messenger's pupils shrank suddenly.
He ...... How dare he be so bold?"
"He's so bold! He wants to make the world chaotic, and if the world is chaotic, then he can take the opportunity to reap the benefits of the fisherman!"
"Subordinates are ...... brave"
"You don't have to say more!"
The Blue Dragon Palm Sect directly interrupted the envoy's words.
"Although, we can't be this rule-breaker, but there are people who are willing to be this up-and-coming bird, we can't stop it!"
"If Xuanyuan Ming finds something, we just need to pretend not to know!"
"Since you have brought the news of the peace talks to the little beggar, with his cleverness, he naturally knows that there is no harmony within us. ā
"So, it's a good time to borrow a knife to kill someone!"
After the Qinglong Sect made a statement, the apostle suddenly felt very afraid.
He joined the sect just to have food and clothing......
I just want to use the prestige of the sect to make a fortune......
However, he couldn't even think of this plot to kill the queen and subvert the government!
He's just a messenger! a messenger and an errand runner!
Let him send a letter, even if it is to send a letter to the two families, he is not afraid!
Because those strong people will definitely not embarrass him, a little minion who doesn't even have the realm of transforming gods.
But...... In this disobedience, he can't even think of killing the emperor and destroying the country!
"This ...... Is that really going to be the case?"
"Of course, this is what you have to do if you want to achieve great things. ā
"We're now, but we're at ease watching that Red Warrior perform. ā
"In recent months, there has been no need to contact me. ā
"Just wait and see what happens, and watch the show. ā
After saying that, the Qinglong Sect disappeared without a trace, leaving only the apostle sweating profusely in place.
"They, want to kill the queen?"
When Lu Cheng heard this, he also felt a little incredible.
Chi Zheng Walker, that guy actually has this kind of mind......
In this cloud empire, it is very difficult for ordinary people to even see the queen if they want to kill the queen.
How could he have such thoughts?
"I just felt creepy when I heard the instructions of the Qinglong Sect, so I had to come and surrender. ā
"Although I am a member of the sect, I ...... I ...... for the denomination."
The envoy covered his eyes, and after he told Lu Cheng everything, his spirit finally relaxed.
"You tell me, are you sure that I am not a member of the sect? And Bao Shangshu, Li Shangshu, the identities of them and others, you can't be sure?"
Lu Cheng asked, and he nodded.
This incident is too bizarre.
However, in the experience he said, Lu Cheng did get some useful information.
The first point is that the sect is indeed not monolithic, as the three families say.
The second point, Elder Guo Yunfeng, is indeed a problem!
If the Red Zheng Walker really had that kind of thought, Lu Cheng would have to find him out of whatever he said, but the problem now is that the trace of the Red Zheng Walker.
Now, Lu Cheng didn't know the traces of the Red Zheng Walker, nor did he know any information about the Red Zheng Walker.
"Let me ask you, do you know Yu Wanli?"
"Yu Wanli, that genius of Lu Xian Palace?"
"yes, what do you know about him?"
The envoy was stunned, and seemed to know nothing about Yu Wanli.
"This man...... I don't know. ā
Suddenly, Lu Cheng seemed to understand something.
If Yu Wanli is a member of the sect, then he must be on the side of the Red Zheng Walker.
"In your estimation, who is stronger, the Red Zheng Walker or the Blue Dragon Palm Sect?"
"Naturally, the Qinglong Sect is one point stronger. ā
The messenger said without thinking.
"Although the Red Zheng Walker is strong, it is always in the ranks of the new seven, although the number of Seven-Colored Walkers is superior, but in terms of qualifications and strength, of course, the master is better. ā
In this case, Lu Cheng felt a little strange.
It stands to reason that if Yu Wanli really received the grace of the sect, his soul and body would definitely have remnants of the original species.
However, whether it was body or soul, Yu Wanli couldn't find any appearance of being eroded by the native species at all, as if his cultivation was based on his own cultivation.
It would be forgivable to say that a master of the soul had changed the structure of his soul and body.
However, the Red Zheng Walker should not have this kind of ability.
To be able to do it in Lu Cheng can't see the clues, this cultivation must at least be higher than Lu Cheng.
However, Mo said that within Yunjing, the Zong family has already retreated, and looking at the entire Cloud Empire, it is really rare to see someone who is stronger than him Lu Zhenren.
"Alright, when you're done, I'm going out. ā
"I can guarantee your safety, but the more important thing now is to ensure the safety of Empress Yang Yi. ā
"So, I hope you can understand. ā
Lu Cheng stood up and said to the messenger.
He naturally knew how many pounds and taels he had, and although he confessed a lot of things, he was just a sect envoy, and it was not worth their best to protect it.
"Perhaps, the prison is a very safe place, and you can stay here for a while. ā
"When the limelight passes, I can consider it and intercede for you. ā
After Lu Cheng finished speaking, the messenger was grateful.
"Thank you Lu Qin for your ......"
"By the way, after chatting for so long, I didn't have time to ask. ā
"What's your name. ā
"I ......"
The messenger seemed stunned, and he didn't know his name.
At this pause, Lu Cheng frowned.
"Sorry, I don't know what my name should be. ā
"Well, then, you call it twenty. ā
Lu Cheng thought about it for a while, today is March 20, called 20, which is easier to remember.
"Thank you for ......"
The envoy sat down slowly, and after Lu Cheng left the cell, his thoughts were full of thoughts.
He walked out of the big guy and came to the door of the prison of the Criminal Department, where Bao Qingyun and Li Han and others had been waiting for a long time.
Tang Ke greeted him, and seeing that he looked puzzled, he patted him on the shoulder and said:
"Don't put too much pressure on yourself. ā
"Your persuasion is good, but do you think I can do it?"
Don Ke's words of comfort did not bring him substantial comfort. He shook his head, feeling like his mind was in turmoil.
"What did you ask?"
"I asked a lot of questions, but ......"
He paused, pouted his teeth, and said:
"I don't think he's credible. ā
Lu Cheng's words made everyone a little surprised.
"Where is the untrustworthiness?"
Li Han asked, he recalled the appearance of the person just now, and always felt that he was eager to speak the truth.
"Originally, I thought what he said was very credible, but in the end, ......"
Before leaving the cell, after Lu Cheng asked him his name, his spirit appeared in a trance for a moment.
This was not a normal sign, even when he talked about the Qinglong Sect, he didn't have any trance when he talked about their plan.
However, when Lu Cheng asked his name, he was in a trance.
"In short, I don't think it's very credible. ā
Lu Cheng didn't bother to explain too much to him, this kind of thing was completely out of his own feelings, even if he said it, he probably wouldn't believe it.
"How credible is the information you think?"
There is always an explanation to be given, and Lu Cheng's explanation is reasonable.
Bao Shangshu frowned, what Lu Cheng said was not unreasonable.
It's obviously information sent to the door, and if they are really stupid enough to listen to all of it, then there is really a problem.
However, since this person is indeed the messenger of the sect, there must be some more crucial clues.
"So, does his message have any reference meaning?"
"There are a couple of things to look out for. ā
Lu Cheng thought about it for a while, there were two fourth-order gods on Baiyun Mountain, even if they really wanted to be unfavorable to Elder Guo Yunfeng Guo, it would not be easy. ć
Not to mention the thorough defense of Baiyun Mountain now, just those two fourth-order people who transformed into gods were not so easy to deal with.
The place where the three of them connected with this messenger at that time was far away from the foothills of Baiyun Mountain, although it was still the boundary of Baiyun Mountain, but that piece was almost at the foot of the north side of Baiyun Mountain.
That's why he can come and go freely.
"We still have to pay a little attention to the situation in Baiyun Mountain, the sect will definitely take action in Baiyun Mountain. ā
This is true, but he does not know in what way the sect will act in Baiyun Mountain.
Perhaps, it will let the seed of original sin cause trouble in the past, or it may be someone else who will cause trouble in the past.
All in all, they will surely come to meet thousands of miles!
The more this envoy didn't know about Yu Wanli, the more suspicious Lu Cheng felt that Yu Wanli became.
Because, Yu Wanli was too clean, and he entered the third order of contemplation so cleanly and quickly, he Lu Zhenren couldn't believe it.
"For the rest, I think we should pay attention to the Great Prince and the Cloud Palace. ā
"He said that someone wanted to murder Yang Yi, so ......"
Although this is just a conjecture, if they really have a plan against Yang Yi......
So, can the eldest prince in Yunjing be spared?
The second prince was very well-behaved and hid in Lin Xiao's house, but this eldest prince was still staying in Yunjing!
In case something goes wrong, the first to bear the brunt is naturally these royal families, although the eldest prince has the help of the Taishi by his side, but he himself is a powerless person.
With the power of the sect, if you want to kill him, isn't it easy?
Therefore, the eldest prince still has to pay a little attention.
"If that's the case, you can't relax for a moment!"
Bao Shangshu frowned and said, this group of scum actually has a plot against the royal family, that is really a crime that deserves death!
"I will keep an eye on this apostle day and night. ā
Li Han said, and Bao Qingyun patted Li Han on the shoulder.
"I don't need you to bother to exert myself, I'll keep an eye on it here. ā
"There are a lot of troubles in the Criminal Department, and there is a place for you to be busy. ā
After saying that, Li Han suddenly felt a wave of warmth welling up in his heart.
Although this Bao Shangshu is straightforward, there are still people who are quite picky, but when something really happens, he is always the one who goes forward.
"Then you're up for you. ā
"What kind of words is this, the country is in trouble, and I am naturally worried about the country. ā
Bao Qingyun said righteous words.
"Since that's the case, then I'll go to Jiangzhou Mansion and take a good look at Yan Taishou!"
Tang Ke pondered for a moment and said directly, but this made Lu Chengzhi frown.
"Are you going to see Yan Taishou, why do I think you don't mean to be drunk?"
"Nonsense! Such an important matter, can I mix in the love of children?"
"You, then follow Yu Wanli!"
Lu Cheng directly gave Tang Ke a no.
If you want to sneak out at such a time and not take responsibility, there is no door!
"Alas! It's drudgery again! I've been following me for so long, and I still want to follow!"
"Don't worry, as long as you can keep up, you will definitely gain something!"
Lu Cheng glanced at the sky, and it was already flushed red.
"It's dawning......"
The night was sleepless, but everyone did not feel sleepy at all.
When the wind and rain come, everyone is hanging in their hearts.
