Chapter 268 Shouldn't it be cut to pieces!
Gu Zhao's words were more terrifying to Fan Fengzhi than being whipped several times and almost blinded.
"Impossible!" Fan Fengzhi's eyes were splitting, and the only eye she could open stared at Gu Zhao fiercely, almost spitting out fire, "You're talking nonsense!"
Gu Zhao squeezed his neck so tightly that he had to lift his chin and breathe heavily, "Do you think that the things you did in the Yunzhou Guild Hall were really unnoticed by others? Do you think that all of us in the Konhe Division are vegetarians?"
of?"
Gu Zhao has had the ability to read other people's voices for so long that he has become extremely proficient in using this ability.
As long as you highlight the aspects you want to know during the conversation, the other party will involuntarily think about the information in their hearts, and Gu Zhao will get what she wants to know.
"When you first built the Yunzhou Guild Hall, you already started digging the secret tunnel, right? Should I say you are being cautious, or do you have some evil intentions?" A smile appeared on the corner of Gu Zhao's mouth, but there was no warmth at all.
In Fan Fengzhi's eyes, her smile was simply more terrifying than an evil ghost.
Fan Fengzhi was in a panic. All the people who worked at the beginning had been silenced by him. He thought that no one in the world would know about it except him and his father, but Konghesi had already known about it!
In this case, have they been targeted by the court from the very beginning? So can they still escape today's catastrophe?
Are his guards hiding in the dark capable of snatching him away from the Controller?
If possible, he still had a chance to escape from the unknown secret passage... But looking at the archers everywhere on the roof, Fan Fengzhi's despair became deeper and deeper.
Gu Zhao saw with satisfaction that Fan Fengzhi's face was getting paler and her eyes were getting more and more frightened. He even thought about the directions of all the secret passages of the Yunzhou Guild Hall in his mind.
After getting the news he wanted, Gu Zhao immediately pushed Fan Fengzhi aside and curled his lips in disgust.
Qin Xinglie, who had been staring at her next to him, instantly took out the silk handkerchief from his sleeve, bent down, and carefully held Gu Zhao's fingers and wiped them one by one.
Gu Zhao glanced at Qin Xinglie, always feeling that there was something strange about this posture and movement.
She didn't want to touch these disgusting things, but who told her that this was the only way to get the secrets they didn't want to tell?
Shen Wei ran over with people, "Sir, there are a few people who want to sneak out, we have arrested them all."
Gu Zhao looked cold and said, "Ask clearly who they want to send a message to and write it all down for investigation."
These procedures are the daily operations of Control He Division, and there is no need for Gu Zhao to explain them. Everyone knows what to do.
Gu Zhao handed over the scene to Shen Wei and Qi Si, while he quickened his pace and led a group of capable little cranes to the small courtyard where "Mr. Wen" lived.
The architectural style of the Yunzhou Guild Hall is very different from that of Yangzhou gardens. It is square and square, with a large courtyard within a small courtyard.
As the richest man in Yunzhou, the Fan family lives not in the middle of the guild hall, but by the southeast wall.
According to Fan Fengzhi's memory, Gu Zhao followed the trembling servants and directly found the small courtyard where Mr. Wen lived, and found the entrance to the secret passage from an inconspicuous utility room.
Fan Fengzhi, whose arm was twisted by Xiaohe, was completely desperate.
He said in despair, "You have known this for a long time? Then why did you ignore it before... Yes... the new emperor has ascended the throne and wants to take action on Yun Shang!"
Fan Fengzhi consciously found the reason, feeling both unfair and fearful in her heart: "This is not fair! This is not fair! Punishing without teaching is what the court should do?"
Gu Zhao turned back and glanced at him, "Unfair? Your Fan family should have killed the nine tribes a long time ago. I can let you enjoy it until now. What else do you have to complain about?"
"Do you really think that no one knows where your Yun merchants got the money to open banks, buy fields, and bribe officials all these years?"
Fan Fengzhi looked at Gu Zhao as if she had seen a ghost, "You, you, how did you know?"
This kind of thing is a secret even in Yunzhou. It is a secret that only a few core business families in Yunzhou know.
Gu Zhao snorted coldly, "In order to make money, you eight Yun Shang families joined forces and smuggled the salt, iron, and tea that the imperial court banned from selling to Ma Rong in batches before sending them outside the customs. You never thought that these things would be
Will Ma Rong become more powerful and pose a greater threat to the Bei'an border?"
"Your Yunzhou is only more than a hundred miles away from northern Xinjiang. Once the Ma Rong invade and plunder the people, the soldiers and civilians of Yunzhou will bear the brunt."
"Under such circumstances, you people actually dare to smuggle prohibited goods and commit treason against the enemy. Shouldn't you be cut to pieces by a thousand swords?"
By the time he finished speaking, Gu Zhao's voice was stern, and his eyes were full of hatred when he looked at Fan Fengzhi.
In the previous life, Fan Fengzhi and the others did more than just that. They also went one step further to establish a connection with Dong Hao!
When Gu Zhao became the crown prince, the Fan family had semi-openly become Dong Hao's unofficial agent.
Taking advantage of the internal chaos in Bei'an, the Fan family continued to use money and beautiful women to corrupt officials from all over Bei'an, which greatly helped Donghao's invasion.
The person in charge of the Fan family who was frequently active in Shangjing City was the miserable and pitiful-looking Fan Fengzhi in front of her!
Upon hearing Gu Zhao's rebuke, everyone in the Konghe Division cast disdainful glances at Fan Fengzhi.
"Bah!" A little crane spat at Fan Fengzhi, "You bastard, you even forgot your ancestors for that little stinky money!"
