Chapter Seventy-Seven: An Unexpected Smooth

"Lord Qianhu, there is the latest development regarding the case." Shen Lian walked to Ren Changfeng's side, carefully explained the information he had mastered, and at the same time showed the confession signed by Zhang Lin to the other party.

After Ren Changfeng saw it, he sat on the spot and was stunned, he didn't expect that Wang Dong, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, was involved behind him, and this person was the person directly in charge of the ceremony of sacrificing to the sky.

"Is Zhang Lin's words credible?"

"He was caught by me on the way to escape, and all his family members were arrested, and he is currently locked up in the Tooth Eater Prison, I believe he will not dare to lie to me." Shen Lian nodded, his tone quite affirmative.

Ren Changfeng nodded slightly after hearing this, thinking that what Shen Lian said made sense.

All the family members were arrested, and I believe that Zhang Lin did not dare to make a mistake.

"Do you want me to arrest Wang Dong, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, now?" Ren Changfeng looked at Shen Lian and said what the other party was thinking.

"Exactly." Shen Lian said, "There may be a guest in Wang Dong's family who is supporting, and his humble strength is limited, and he has to take action from the Lord of Qianhu himself." ”

Unconsciously, Shen Lian slapped a sycophant.

"Okay, you go and order all the people, and this thousand households will go with you." Ren Changfeng didn't refuse, immediately got up and changed into his red unicorn suit, took the black long knife, and followed Shen Lian away.

Outside the hospital, Zhang Shan, Li Shi, Jin Yuze, Zhou Tianlu and others had already made preparations, just waiting for Ren Changfeng, who was in charge of combat power, to arrive.

"Let's go, please ask Wang Dong, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, to come back for tea."

Shen Lian was the organizer of this case, he waved his hand, the team started, and dozens of shadow guards rode horses and rushed to Wang Dong's mansion.

The Shilang Mansion is magnificent.

There were more than a dozen guards on duty outside the house.

They were very surprised to see a large number of shadow guards coming to the door.

This is the Shilang Mansion, even if it is a shadow secret guard, you should also pay attention to the influence, such a fanfare is detrimental to my master's reputation.

The head of the team plucked up his courage, blocked in front of the gate, looked at Shen Lian who was walking in the front, and said very politely: "This lord, I don't know what you are doing?" I'll let me pass it on. ”

Shen Lian saw that he was good at politeness, and this was also the responsibility of others, so it was not difficult for this team leader.

He stopped and explained slightly: "This official was ordered to investigate the case of the altar explosion, and now I want to see Wang Shilang to understand the situation and lead the way." ”

"Ahh This..."The team leader was a little embarrassed, "It's okay for the villain to pass it on first?" ”

Shen Lian waved his hand and said, "There is no need to pass it on." ”

As he spoke, he pushed the team leader away and led the team into the Shilang Mansion.

The shadow guard behind him rushed in, and with Shen Lian's order, everyone acted quickly and rushed into the mansion to find Wang Dong's whereabouts.

"The shadow secret guard handled the case, and everyone held their heads in their hands and squatted on the ground." Shen Lian stood in the middle of the front yard, breathing inside, and shouted loudly, the sound of which permeated the entire mansion.

Jin Yuze, who was next to him, glanced at him and asked, "Why are you squatting on the ground with your head in your hands?" Shouldn't they all be caught in the yard? ”

Shen Lian was slightly embarrassed, "The same, the same, hehe." ”

Wang Dong seemed to have known that there would be today, and the shadow guard found him in the study, when Wang Dong was slumped in his chair, looking at the ceiling with dull eyes.

When the shadow guard broke into the door, Wang Dong followed very cooperatively.

Shen Lian did not bring them all back to the Tooth Eater Prison, but sealed them in the Shilang Mansion, leaving a team of people to guard them.

On the way back, Shen Lian was in a good mood: he didn't expect this trip to be surprisingly smooth, and he thought he would encounter some resistance.

What Shen Lian didn't know was that when he escorted Zhang Lin back to the capital, he had already been seen by Wang Dong's eyes.

When Wang Dong learned that Zhang Lin's family had been arrested, he realized that the matter would be exposed sooner or later, and he was mentally prepared.

It's not that he didn't think about resisting, but it was just a momentary thought, and confronting the imperial court was tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg.

The best ending is to confess and be lenient and strive for the emperor's leniency.

In the Tooth Devouring Prison, Shen Lian and Ren Changfeng sat opposite Wang Dong.

Shen Lian asked, "Lord Wang, you should know why I invited you here, right?" ”

"Huh." Wang Dong squeezed out a smile and said, "Naturally, it's because of the explosion of the altar." ”

"Since Lord Wang knows it in his heart, let's talk about it, the explanation of 1510 is clear, and it will save us from taking measures." Shen Lian knocked on the table and looked at the white-haired old man in front of him.

Even if he is in a high position, when he is taken off his official uniform and changed into a prison uniform, he is no different from ordinary people.

"Can you give me a bowl of wine?" Wang Dong did not answer Shen Lian's words, but made a small request.

"If you explain it clearly, you will naturally have your wine to drink." This time it was Ren Changfeng who spoke.

"Oh, that's it." Wang Dong let out a long sigh and fell into memory, "Things have to start from half a year ago........"

Wang Dong's only son, Wang Zhen, was unable to have children because of overindulgence, injured his body, and was unable to have children. He had also sought out the warlock of Qin Tianjian and tried to ask for a pill, but after the warlock of Qin Tianjian diagnosed it, he told him that it was physiological, not pathological, and that the pill could not be cured.

Just when Wang Dong was about to give up, a demon general from the Western Demon Court approached him and said that he could cure Wang Zhen, but in return, Wang Dong wanted to do them a favor, that is, blow up the altar.

At first, Wang Dong refused, but the conditions given by the other party were too tempting, which could save him from the desperate situation of the Wang family.

It's worth taking this risk, in case you get through it.

"Of the seventy-two participants, except for those who were killed on the spot, the rest were dealt with by you?" Shen Lian looked at Wang Dong and asked.

The latter shook his head and said, "No, I don't know, maybe they flew away after sharing the silver, or they may have been killed by the demon clan." ”

"What's the secret under the altar? What is the purpose of the demon clan? Shen Lian asked.

"I just cooperated with them to blow up the altar, and I didn't know anything about the rest."

"You didn't ask?"

"I asked, but they didn't say."

"What about your son? Cure the disease? Shen Lian asked again.

As soon as these words came out, Wang Dong, who was still a little energetic, collapsed instantly, and his eyes became hollow, "No, the demon clan disappeared without a trace after the accident, and he never contacted me again." ”

This... was pitted, lost his wife and broke his soldiers, not only did he cut off his children and grandchildren, but he also had to be beheaded all over the house, and maybe he would have to punish the three clans.... Pay for one's whistle.

Shen Lian actually felt some sympathy for the old man in front of him.

After the interrogation, Shen Lian brought the confession to Wang Dong, who didn't even look at it, and directly signed and detained.

Then he turned around and walked back to his cell.

has been an official for many years, and Wang Dong knows his ending very well.

When he promised the demon clan, he thought that maybe there would be today, but the temptation to treat his son made him have to take a risk.

People always take chances.
