Chapter 247: The Chief

The palace, which was calm and waveless in the past, has set off a monstrous wave today.

The government soldiers surrounded the palace, and no one was allowed to leave the palace without permission.

All of a sudden, everyone in the palace was in danger and panicked.

Zhuo Teng was instructed by Yu Zheng to investigate and secretly visit the mansion.

Mo Liang, Wu Qian and others were detained separately for interrogation, but they did not let go of the matter of lending money outside the house.

Jiang Shu let out his words, and anyone who provided clues would be rewarded with ten taels of silver. Those who provide useful evidence will be rewarded with 50 silver.

As for those in charge, the punishment of those who confess first is reduced as appropriate.

The people in the house have been oppressed by Mo Liang and others for many years, and they have long been resentful and dissatisfied, coupled with the temptation of rewarding silver, some people have found Zhuo Teng one after another.

Three days later, things made progress, and Zhuo Teng went to the main courtyard to report to Jiang Shu.

"Princess, the villain found out these according to the clues provided by the people in the house, and in addition, Steward Liu said that he wanted to confess to the princess in person."

Yu presented the thing to Jiang Shu, and Jiang Shu took it and opened it to take a look.

It is a record of Mo Liang and others embezzling the money of the palace, as well as evidence of making false accounts.

Jiang Shu put it down after a few glances, got up and went to the front hall to meet Steward Liu.

Steward Liu is an inconspicuous little steward, in charge of firewood and charcoal in the house.

Compared with other stewards, his errand is not very good.

Not long after Jiang Shu sat down in the front hall, Steward Liu was brought up.

"The villain has seen the princess." Steward Liu, who was over half a hundred years old, knelt on the ground in fear.

Jiang Shu looked at him and asked directly, "What do you know?" ”

Steward Liu was thin and worried, and said hesitantly: "If I say it, will the princess really let the villain go?" ”

Jiang Shu said indifferently: "It depends on whether the things you recruit are enough and what you have done." ”

Steward Liu hesitated when he heard this.

Until now, you still dare to take Joe with her?

Jiang Shu said in a cold voice: "If you don't want to recruit, then go back and continue to lock it up, there will always be a day when this matter will come to light." ”

With that, Jiang Shu got up and wanted to leave.

Steward Liu was in a hurry, and hurriedly said: "I'll recruit, I'll recruit ......"

Jiang Shu is right, there will always be a day when this matter will come to light, and it is pointless to consume it.

After figuring it out, Steward Liu said truthfully: "The matter of lending money outside the government was not the meaning of not caring for things at first, but the idea of tension. ”

Zhang Zhang is the steward of the back garden in the house.

"Zhang Zhang is shrewd and sleek, and he is very close to Mo Guanshi, about three years ago, Zhang Zhang boasted after drinking that he had made a lot of money by lending money abroad. And proposed that everyone join hands to lend money and make a fortune together. ”

"At first, no one cared, but Zhang Zhang repeatedly instigated them, and after inviting everyone to drink a few times with the money earned from the loan, they began to be moved."

"Lending requires capital, and I was excluded because I had no money, so I don't care if they threaten me with errands and corruption, and I can't disclose half of it."

Because he didn't participate, Steward Liu knew so much.

It's just that he defrauded and shared the spoils and embezzled some money, and what Steward Liu committed was not serious. However, the truth is not clear, and it is still necessary to hold it for the time being, and then deal with it after everything is clarified.

After Yu Zheng came back from outside, Jiang Shu told him about Steward Liu's confession.

"I think there's something wrong with that tension." Jiang Shu frowned.

If money is the way to make money, why does he have to share it with others? Unless, he has ulterior motives.

And this tension has no relatives, no reason, no background, where does a commoner get the capital and way to lend?

"I'll meet him." Yu Zheng's expression was solemn and murderous.

Yu Zheng will not be as soft as Jiang Shu. And Jiang Shu is pregnant, so it is not appropriate to see blood, because he did not take Jiang Shu there.

Chase the wind followed Yu Zheng to the dark room and lifted the tension out.

The villain has seen the prince. "Zhang Li is in his thirties, strong and strong, he is not flustered when he sees Yu Zheng, and he salutes in a proper manner.

Yu Zheng stared at him and asked sharply, "Who are you?" What is the purpose of coming to the palace? ”

Zhang Li was shocked when he heard this, and his eyes showed a little confusion and panic, but he quickly calmed down, and pretended to be panicked: "The villain doesn't know what the prince is talking about?" ”

"I don't know? Hum! Yu Zheng sneered and glanced at the wind.

Chase the wind and know it, and order people to be punished.

The guards quickly moved the torture bench, took off the tension coat and pressed him to the bench to execute him with a cane.

"Lord Wang...... Yes! Zhang Li's face changed greatly, and he wanted to say something, but the torture battle had already fallen.

After the twenty canes, Zhang Li's face turned red, and cold sweat was dripping on his forehead.

"Now you know?" Yu Zheng asked with an awe-inspiring expression.

The tension was cold and painful, and his teeth chattered: "The prince wants a villain...... Recruit what? ”

Mo Yan stared coldly at the tension of not letting go, Yu Zheng said calmly: "Regarding the loan outside the house, Mo Liang, Wu Qian and others have already confessed, and they are instructed by you. ”

"That alone is enough to kill you. What's the point of you hiding the rest? ”

Tension shook his head when he heard it.

Mo Liang: Did they confess?

These fools, don't they know that if they make a move, it will be a dead end!

Seeing that Zhang Zhang didn't speak, Yu Zheng lost his patience and waved his hand at Chafeng.

Chase Feng picked up a bowl of chili oil, tore off Zhang Li's back shirt, and poured chili oil onto his fleshy back.

"Ahh The howl like killing a pig sounded, and the tension clenched the torture bench in pain, shaking like chaff.

The screams spread to other dark rooms, and Mo Liang and the others who listened to it were shocked.

"This king asks you again, whose man are you?" Yu Zheng asked in a deep voice.

Zhang Zhang knew that if he didn't name him today, Yu Zheng would not let him go.

But he said it, and Yu Zheng would not let him go.

After weighing it, Zhang Zhang gritted his teeth and said, "The villain tension ...... It's the royal palace...... Backyard steward. ”

"Have a backbone, chase the wind." Yu Zheng's face was as cold as ice.

The harder the tension mouth, the heavier the power of the person behind him.

Chasing the wind had someone bring a water tank, drag tension into it, fill it with cold water, and add ice.

The tension was shivering violently, and the head was shaking uncontrollably.

After waiting for a while, Yu Zheng got up and walked to the water tank and gave an ultimatum: "You didn't say that this king would be able to find out sooner or later." But if thou doest thou shalt be tormented, and the king will return thee to thy master. ”

What he did with tension was not enough to shake the people behind him, and Yu Zheng just wanted to find out and be on guard.

Zhang Li's frozen mind was extremely clear, and at this moment he had only one thought, he didn't want to be frozen to death!

Yu Zheng has always been a talker, and Zhang Zhang decided to take a gamble.

I said...... I said......"

But after a quarter of an hour's work, the tension was almost frozen, and his breath was weak, and his speech was intermittent.

After Yu Zheng listened to the confession, he asked Zhang Zhang to be dragged out of the water tank.

Zhang Li only felt that the blood in his body was coagulated, and his body was stiff and did not obey the call, lying on the ground like a dead fish.

Yu Zheng glanced at him and sat back in his chair.

Since the interrogation began, Yu Zheng simply didn't do anything and tried Mo Liang, Wu Qian and others.

With the confession of tension, Mo Liang and others are convicted of their crimes, and it is meaningless to be stubborn.

"The prince spares his life, and the villains are all ......" Mo Liang Wu Qian gave up stubborn resistance.

Ran Yu Zheng was angry in his heart, and he didn't want to let it go so easily, so he ordered someone to beat them with twenty canes before listening to their confession.
