Chapter 811: Conviction
"Just ordinary businessmen, aren't they?"
Liu Chengfeng asked back, and this sentence contained countless sarcasm, just like a sharp knife stabbing Deng Tong's heart.
Deng Tong looked hesitant and seemed to be hesitating. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, it's just an ordinary businessman. If the lord doesn't believe it, he can naturally go and check it."
"Okay!" Liu Chengfeng was no longer willing to continue to tangle with Deng Tong. No matter how much he entangled, it would be useless. This person simply couldn't get in. Since he refused to confess himself, Liu Chengfeng had to use his own way to prove Deng Tong's lies.
"Come here, bring the 'businessman' Xiong Feiping!"
Deng Tong obviously did not expect Xiong Feiping to be arrested, and his face suddenly turned pale, almost basking on the ground, motionless.
Several lieutenants had already come in with a scholar-like man. The man was short and fat and looked as if he was ashamed. He looked at Xiong Feiping and showed a look of horror. Seeing Deng Tong's face was ashamed, Xiong Feiping knew that something was wrong. He secretly glanced at Liu Chengfeng and saw that Liu Chengfeng was wearing a four-claw dragon robe. The best brocade looked particularly eye-catching under the lights, and also declared Liu Chengfeng's noble identity.
If he doesn't understand what's going on now, he's really a fool.
Before someone could call him to kneel down, Xiong Feiping obediently bowed and kowtowed, saying, "Xiong Feiping, the grass man, has seen the adults."
From this point of view, this person has a great ability to adapt. Liu Chengfeng looked at the unpretentious person and asked: "It's Xiong Feiping in the hall."
Xiong Feiping said: "That's right."
Liu Chengfeng continued to ask, "Do you know why the Jinyiwei wants to take you?"
Xiong Feiping seemed to be asked, but in fact, the Jinyiwei rushed to his residence and took the person directly, without asking the reason. Although he knew that he had committed a crime of not redeeming it, he did not make it clear. Of course, he could not admit it. Xiong Feiping forced a laugh and said, "The people don't know."
"I don't know again." Liu Chengfeng said to Yang Kang beside him in a joke tone. The latter naturally smiled. This joke may not be funny. However, no matter how low the joke is, since it was said by Liu Chengfeng, Yang Kang had to look funny.
Liu Chengfeng looked at Xiong Feiping coldly again and said, "Let's just talk, King Ning sent you to this Jiujiang City. The main thing is to let you do what you do. If you say it, you can reward you with your entire body."
Liu Chengfeng obviously felt Xiong Feiping's body tremble slightly. He was both shocked and uneasy, but he still denied: "Caomin doesn't know what the adults are talking about. Caomin is just an ordinary little merchant. He has nothing to do with King Ning."
"Is that true?" Liu Chengfeng smiled slightly and said, "So what's going on with your carrier pigeon?"
Xiong Feiping was stopped.
Liu Chengfeng continued: "There are some letters found from your house. These letters are very strange. They are all made of numbers, but sooner or later, the Beizhenfushi can also decipher them. Now, you still want to deny them. I told you the truth. The Jinyiwei has already noticed you. Even if you want to deny them, you can't do it."
Xiong Feiping closed his mouth. When it comes to this, he would not admit it even if he refused to admit it. Unlike Deng Tong, he is not an official, and there is no evidence. Even if there is no evidence at all, he can punish him without hesitation. The criminal law of the Jinyiwei is famous all over the world. With his identity, he naturally knows what this means. If these methods are used over and over again, they will definitely not be able to endure it.
Now that things have come to this point, the more you resist, the more you suffer. Now he really hopes someone can give him some pleasure.
Liu Chengfeng did not ask any further, and the whole hall fell silent. It was obvious that this was a means of Liu Chengfeng's interrogation. He gave Xiong Feiping time to weigh the pros and cons himself, and asked him to think carefully about what to do to be good for him.
After half of the incense stick, Liu Chengfeng asked, "How is it, are you willing to confess now?"
Xiong Feiping hesitated for a moment, then said, "Caomin recognizes it. Caomin is indeed related to King Ning. Caomin was originally from Nanchang Prefecture. Later, he moved to Jiujiang Prefecture. A few years ago, he lost all his ancestral belongings because of business. He lost all his ancestors. When he was about to cry and was crying, someone suddenly came to the door and asked Caomin if he was willing to reorganize his family. Caomin thought it was a life-saving straw. At that time, he only thought of turning over, so he agreed..."
Xiong Feiping closed his eyes, showed despair, and continued, "After that, I began to be controlled by King Ning. King Ning asked the villain to take care of some of the business of the royal mansion in Jiujiang Prefecture. At the beginning, he did not let Caomin participate in any secrets. It was not until King Ning rebelled that Nanchang Prefecture issued an order to ask Caomin to inquire about the news for the royal mansion in Jiujiang City. The students were already trapped deeper and deeper, and knew that even if they wanted to escape, the only way was to take risks. Now that they have been observed by the adults, Caomin is afraid that they will not be able to survive, and they only want to have fun."
Faced with this situation, Xiong Feiping was able to remain calm. It can be seen that the Ning Prince's Mansion is still very eye-catching. Such a person is considered a capable talent even in the Jinyiwei. Liu Chengfeng even admires this guy a little.
However, Liu Chengfeng obviously paid attention not only to whether Xiong Feiping was a member of Ning Wang. For him, it doesn’t matter whether such a character is Ning Wang’s gangster. What’s important is whether he can dig out a deeper character.
Liu Chengfeng said to Xiong Feiping: "If you can speak out in your knowledge, I can assure you that we can not only not pursue your family, but also make you die more happy. Are you willing to answer honestly?"
Xiong Feiping nodded and said, "Caomin is naturally willing, but sir, it's okay to ask."
Liu Chengfeng nodded with satisfaction and said, "Can you know this person kneeling beside you?"
Xiong Feiping turned his head away and glanced at Deng Tong who was in a daze. The two looked at each other with their eyes. It was obviously not expected that neither of them would have expected the meeting. Xiong Feiping quickly turned his eyes away. Whether it was because of guilt or other reasons, he nodded and said, "I dare not hide it from each other. Commander Deng and the villain are old acquaintances."
"How did you meet?"
Xiong Feiping said: "After the order of King Ning, the villain contacted him."
"Nonsense!" Deng Tong couldn't help but scream.
Liu Chengfeng looked at Deng Tong coldly and said, "I didn't ask you. Since you said he was talking nonsense, then I will ask you. Xiong Feiping is a member of King Ning, and he has indeed contacted you several times. Then I ask you, since he is not on behalf of King Ning, why is it because of looking for you? Don't tell me that you are just sympathetic and sympathetic, so you are particularly close."
The identities of these two people are military officers and secret spies. It would be a joke to say that they have any common topics. Only three-year-olds would believe such nonsense.
Deng Tong was like a defeated rooster, trying to say something, but then closed his mouth and lowered his head, and didn't dare to say a word again.
Liu Chengfeng was too lazy to pay attention to him, so he continued to ask Xiong Feiping: "What are you talking about with him?"
Xiong Feiping answered honestly: "King Ning ordered me to tell him that it is not the best time to retaliate. King Ning's army will first capture Raozhou Prefecture, then go north to attack Anqing, go down the river and conquer Nanjing. Therefore, Deng Tong ordered to observe the changes. It would be fine if the defenders on Jiujiang were waiting to die, but if they wanted to take the opportunity to cut off the retreat of King Ning's army, Commander Deng would try his best to obstruct the actions of the Jiujiang Prefecture's army, and no matter what, he would delay the time."
Liu Chengfeng nodded slowly. Xiong Feiping's words were very reasonable. If he were King Ning, he would have chosen this method, because the reason was very simple. Since the rebels planned to attack all the way to Nanjing, the rear would inevitably be empty. Nanchang Prefecture was their base camp. Once attacked by the Jiujiang Prefecture army, it would be easy to be cut off by the court. What Ning King needs now is time. Since he intends to take Nanjing in one go, he must ensure that he has no worries and does not rashly choose Deng Tong to incite, but instead let him secretly obstruct and delay the Jiujiang Army's actions. This is obviously the wisest choice.
Xiong Feiping is just a small spy. Without the instruction of King Ning, it would never be possible to come up with this plan for nothing. It seems that what Xiong Feiping said is the truth.
Liu Chengfeng tapped the desk in front of him with his finger, as if he was weighing something. After confirming that everything was fine, he glanced at Xiong Feiping and said lightly: "Come on, take him down, don't make things difficult for him, treat him with delicious food and drinks, and wait until the court decides, and give him a pleasure. Also, let him think about it carefully and think about it again. If you think of it, write it down. If there is any important information, it may save his life. The things he wrote will be handed to the official at any time, and there is no delay."
The captains on both sides quickly responded and stood up, two captains, one left and one right, escorted Xiong Feiping down. Xiong Feiping obviously thought this was the best ending for him, and hurriedly praised him and said, "Thank you for your kindness."
The only person kneeling in the hall was Deng Tong. At this point, Deng Tong was almost bloodless and his body was like a sieve. Of course, he knew that with Xiong Feiping's confession, the imperial envoy in front of him was enough to kill him. Now everything was over, and there was no room for maneuver.
Liu Chengfeng didn't even look at Deng Tong, and said slowly: "Now, can you say it... Chapter 2 is sent to.rs!~!
Chapter completed!
