Volume 3: Zhongzhou Fengyun Chapter 98: Confession
When Yuan Enze came to Yuan Peizhi's confinement room with four old eunuchs, Yuan Peizhi was tearing a chicken leg hard.
Seeing Yuan Peizhi's appearance of eating seas, Yuan Enze was suddenly so angry that he couldn't fight.
"Look at your pig appearance, you still eat! You still eat when disaster comes!"
Yuan Enze's words surprised Yuan Peizhi, he hurriedly wiped the oil off his mouth, and asked:
"What's the matter, second uncle, what's wrong?"
"Think about it, think about it carefully, what did you do in Yongzhou Mansion?"
Yuan Peizhi thought for a long time before answering Yuan Enze's question.
At the beginning, Yuan Peizhi recruited Qi San'er in order to annex the underground business of the Qianlong Society in Yongzhou Mansion.
I don't think that this Qi San'er is not angry, and he can't compete with Lang Sandao at all.
He asked Gonggong Yuan to send two eunuchs to help the Yuan family guard the Yuan family's mansion in Yuanwutun.
Gonggong Yuan said that this is something that a certain big man asked them to guard to death.
Yuan Peizhi naturally has to cater to the meaning of Yuan Gonggong.
As a result, Ruyi and Ruxi's father-in-law both died in Yuanwutun, and the matter of Yuanwutun was investigated by Lucheng and them.
However, Yuan Peizhi didn't know what was under the Yuan family mansion in Yuanwutun.
I'm afraid even Gonggong Yuan doesn't know.
Moreover, Yuan Peizhi is sure that even Yuan Gonggong does not know the true identity of that adult.
His Yuan family is just a small role for the adult to run errands.
"No! I didn't do anything!"
Yuan Peizhi knew very well that even if he leaked half of the things about that adult, his Yuan family might not be finished, but he Yuan Peizhi was definitely finished.
Not only is Yuan Peizhi finished, but Yuan Gonggong's status will also be implicated.
Can you blame him for this? Obviously, the adult ordered the "messenger" to let Yuan Peizhi do this!
Even if he Yuan Peizhi had ten guts, he wouldn't dare to disobey that adult's will.
Gonggong Yuan was good, and he found the prince as a backer, so he used the prince to excuse himself, and the "messenger" couldn't find him.
But he Yuan Peizhi has no backer, how dare he tell the elders of the Yuan family about this?
Could it be that he asked Yuan Peizhi to tell the head of the Yuan Enhong family openly and honestly that there was a "messenger" who asked him to do something for a certain adult?
It's a good thing that Yuan Enhong doesn't kill Yuan Peizhi!
"If you didn't do anything, what are you nervous about?"
Yuan Enze looked at Yuan Peizhi's situation and felt completely wrong, this was not like he had done nothing.
Sweat broke out on his head and his legs trembled.
The appearance of being a thief is all on his face.
"Tell me honestly, what the hell did you do!"
When Yuan Enze was still asking, a voice came from behind him.
"He doesn't dare to tell you that this fat man colluded with the party and attempted rebellion, which is a crime of losing his head!"
Yuan Enze looked behind him and found Lu Cheng standing outside the door of the confinement room, carrying a pot of wine in his hand.
"You...... You are spewing blood, why do you say that I colluded with the party!"
"Really? Is it true that you Yuan Peizhi did not collude with the anti-party? Then tell me, why did Qi San'er kidnap Jiang Huaer!"
Faced with Lu Cheng's question, Yuan Peizhi's hands trembled a little, and it was obvious that he couldn't control his emotions well.
"I ask you again, messenger, who it is!"
Hearing Lu Cheng's question, Yuan Peizhi's pupils dilated.
This word, he did not mention to anyone!
Even if it was Gonggong Yuan, he didn't mention the word messenger.
Although he suspected that Yuan Gonggong must have known about the existence of the "messenger", he did not mention it to Yuan Gonggong.
"Also, why was your Yuan family's mansion built on top of King Qi's secret room!"
Lu Cheng's questions were like sharp knives stabbing at Yuan Peizhi's heart.
Yuan Peizhi wanted to explain, but he was too scared, as soon as the momentum of Lu Chenghua's divine realm was released, his Yuan Peizhi's legs were weak.
"You don't have to answer me these questions, but when you see Master Bao in a while, you can't hide!"
After speaking, Lu Cheng took Yuan Peizhi's neck and dragged the fat man of more than 200 catties out of the confinement room.
......
When Gonggong Yuan was anxious, he suddenly found that the prohibition of this Tingxuan Pavilion had suddenly disappeared.
So he hurriedly walked into the Tingxuan Pavilion and asked in a soft voice.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, it's almost time, it's time for you to go to the Qilin Courtyard to meet the literati of the Four Seas. ”
Yuan Gonggong's voice was very respectful, and he definitely couldn't find fault with the other party.
"Gonggong Yuan, you come in first, Old Man Hong has something to ask you. ”
The prince's words came, and Gonggong Yuan answered and walked into the Tingxuan Pavilion.
Looking at Lord Chu who was drinking tea, Gonggong Yuan bowed towards Chu Yuntian Shangshu.
Old Man Hong rubbed the walnuts in his hand and looked at the father-in-law.
"Are you the eldest member of the Yuan family?"
"If you go back to Old Man Hong, I am the sixth child of the Yuan family. ”
"Oh, that is, the youngest sister-in-law, why did you enter the palace as a eunuch?"
Faced with Old Man Hong's question, Father-in-law Yuan laughed helplessly.
Naturally, the family's business was not good at that time, and the family couldn't afford it, so they were sent to the palace. ”
"Oh, I see, then, Grandpa Yuan, the old man has a few things to ask you. ”
Old Man Hong cleared his throat, and suddenly his momentum changed, and a tortured tone appeared.
"I ask you, who is the 'messenger'?"
Faced with Old Man Hong's question, Yuan Gonggong's first reaction was that something was wrong.
I don't know why Old Man Hong knew this codename, this codename Yuan Gonggong never mentioned it to anyone.
His brain was running wildly, and he really didn't know how to answer the question.
"Father-in-law Yuan, you can say whatever you want, you don't have to be bothered. ”
The prince frowned and looked at Gonggong Yuan, which made Gonggong Yuan even more unsure of how to answer.
He can't afford to mess with that adult, but he can't afford to mess with this prince and Old Man Hong either!
He never knew the true identity of the Lord, but he had only seen the magic of the messenger.
In this way, when faced with the messenger's request, he could only try his best to be vain, rather than asserting refusal.
So, he's a wall-to-wall now.
When the pressure over there was great, he fell over there, and now that the prince is putting pressure on him, he can only betray decisively.
"Minions!
Yuan Gonggong knelt on the ground and slammed his head three times.
"The minion doesn't know the identity of the emissary!
"It's just that he showed some strange magic to the minions, deceived the minions' trust, and the minions got in touch with them!"
"But the minions never did anything for them, never. ”
Faced with Gonggong Yuan's words, the prince shook his head.
"Father-in-law Yuan, you are a reckless old man, and I also value you very much. ”
"But this slave can't resist temptation, don't you say? ”
The prince's words were obviously for Yuan Gonggong to step down, and Yuan Gonggong hurriedly kowtowed several times in a row.
"What the prince taught me is that the slave has always worked hard for the official family and the prince, and he dare not slack off in the slightest. ”
"That demagogic thing, the minions didn't even look at him squarely!"
"Prince Mingjian, Prince Mingjian!"
Gonggong Yuan kept kowtowing his head, and his brain was about to bleed.
"Old Man Hong, it's up to you to decide. ”
Old Man Hong rubbed the walnuts, looked at Gonggong Yuan, who had been kowtowing on the ground, and sighed.
Lord Chu nodded, judging from the words of this Yuan Gonggong, what this Yuan Gonggong said was true.
This Yuan Gonggong is a typical type of offense on both sides.
After all, he is still on an errand in the middle of nothing, and the prince's work must be done properly for him.
At the same time, he neither affirmed nor rejected the "messengers" who came to the joint, maintaining an ambiguous attitude.
Therefore, he is just a small chess piece, and there is no need to keep it or not.
"In this case, it seems that Gonggong Yuan really did not collude with the 'messenger'. ”
"Old man Hong is discerning, the slave is born as an official family, and dies as an official family, and he has no idea of exceeding the rules at all. ”
Seeing that Gonggong Yuan was so sincere, the prince also sighed.
"Old man Hong, Father-in-law Yuan has always been my most trusted father-in-law, he is quick and comfortable. ”
"If you want to say that he is greedy for money, then I must agree with it, how can there be a slave who is not greedy, and a subordinate who is not greedy, which proves that this master is not good. ”
"Although he is greedy, I think Gonggong Yuan is still loyal to me. ”
Listening to the prince's words, Old Man Hong squinted and smiled.
"In this case, that father-in-law is a loyal and righteous person!"
Yuan Gonggong nodded hurriedly.
"Then Gonggong Yuan, may I ask your nephew, does Yuan Peizhi have any contact with the 'messenger'?"
"Who repaired this Yuan family mansion in Yuanwutun?"
"I have to ask you about these things, and if you answer well, you will be rewarded. ”
After Old Man Hong finished speaking, Lord Chu took the following sentence.
"I'll say ugly things for the prince and Old Man Hong, if you can't answer well, there are a lot of reckless little eunuchs who want to be on top. ”
Gonggong Yuan suddenly felt a cold and piercing chill.
This makes him how to answer.
Although he was a subordinate of the crown prince, he was born as a member of the Yuan family and died as a ghost of the Yuan family.
It's very difficult to have him sell his siblings?
Not to mention that he is already a eunuch who has cut off his children and grandchildren, and he will go down to Jiuquan to see the ancestors of the Yuan family with this broken body.
If you sell your siblings and brothers again, and seek glory......
Yuan Gonggong, who believed in Buddhism, feared that he would go to the eighteenth layer of hell.
"You have to think clearly, if the answer is not satisfactory to me, I will always use the right means to get the answer I want. ”
Chu Yunfei, the secretary of the ministry, sang black face, and Old Man Hong and the prince sang white face, this singing and harmony made it very difficult for Yuan Gonggong to choose.
So, Gonggong Yuan gritted his teeth and stomped his feet.
I chose to take it all out.
After all, the fear of the afterlife is not comparable to the current pressure, and Yuan Gonggong chose to give in.
"Yuanwutun is the boundary that my fourth brother Yuan Enzheng in the East China Sea bought more than ten years ago!"
"Yuan Peizhi, that is, the sister-in-law of my fourth brother Yuan Enzheng!"
"Although I don't know how the envoy contacted me, I can be sure that Yuan Enzheng is definitely connected with the envoy!"
Donghae, Won Eun Jeong?
Well, now all the spearheads are pointed at the East China Sea!
Basically, the direction of the matter has been clarified, and the next step is to find out the messenger hiding in Yunjing and ......
Clean sweep!
