Deputy Envoy Kong was extremely sad, afraid that Shang Zheng would bite his own affairs at that time, and he was afraid that he would come and send him off in daily life and find out his relationship. Now he could not kill people to silence him, but could only act positively to command the service.
Rush in and get people and search.
The Jinyiwei was not idle either, but rushed forward.
As for Shang Zheng, he collapsed on the ground like mud and fainted.
Xu Qianque occupied the cave and sat in the hall of the business compound. Deputy Envoy Kong's face changed and he was worried. Seeing Xu Qian and Zhang Tao, the Jinyiwei, slowly eating tea, he couldn't help but say: "
Mr. Xu, it would be better to tie these criminals up to the Examination Office for interrogation. Since the merchants are in contact with the Japanese, it is urgent to delay.”
There is such a strange thing in this world. Xu Qian is obviously the one who comes to take revenge, but Xu Qian is not in a hurry. The old friend of the merchant, the deputy envoy Kong, wanted to kill the merchant immediately.
Xu Qian glanced at Zhang Tao. Zhang Tao was very leisurely, but he was very glad that he was fortunate that he did not have much connection with this business, otherwise he would probably be similar to the Konger at this moment.
Zhang Tao pondered for a moment and said, "What do you think of Mr. Xu?"
Xu Qian was not anxious and said, "Wait, if no results were found, they would not be considered criminals. Let's talk about the results after they found them." Xu Qian was not afraid that he would not be able to find anything. As the saying goes, he would be punished.
, you can always find what you want. Without evidence of being in contact with the Japanese, there is evidence that you went into the sea privately. Without going into the sea privately, there is evidence that you are rampant in the village. If you don’t even have this, you are afraid that you will not be able to find your lifestyle.
Is there any problem, what's like forcing good people to become prostitutes?
The moment he took out the sword, the merchant would definitely die. The problem was how Xu Qian did this beautifully, otherwise it would be difficult to explain it to the palace.
When Deputy Envoy Kong heard Xu Qian say that the merchants were not considered criminals, he was immediately excited and clenched his fists and said righteously: "Young Master Xu is such a bad thing. In fact, I have long seen that this Shang person is not a good person. When I was in Chun'an,
The Shang people only have fish and meat, and don’t take the government seriously. When his family is so rich, where does the money come from? The money is unknown, either rob or steal. Also, the children in their clan are arrogant and domineering.
Last year, Chun'an County took on a case, which was the business that killed the tenant. What evidence should be given to such a thief and a prostitute? As a result, I am considering the punishment of his ancestor Wen Yigong.
They indulged in every way. Now they dared to ignore the national law and do such a traitor. Humph, all of these people deserve to die!"
The words were spoken with great righteousness, just like Bao Zheng possessed him, and he was not allowed to have a halo in his head, and he became a saint.
Xu Qian was about to answer, but a servant came over quickly and reported, "Young Master Xu, sirs, I found a book of accounts from this villa. This book is so weird. I guess there is something wrong with it."
Deputy Envoy Kong was immediately excited and said, "Look, look, what I said is right. This account book is the ironclad evidence of their merchants' misfortune." After that, he hurriedly took the account book and looked through some of them.
Eyes, asserted: "The amount of the accounts inside is huge, and it is vague. Needless to say, it must be evidence of the Japanese communication. Mr. Xu, Zhang Qianhu, you are here later. I will immediately inform the Chinese officials of the yamen to verify it.
Do these prisoners immediately interrogate? You should know that this is just a merchant’s villa, the tip of the merchant’s iceberg. If it is delayed, once the merchant’s old house in Chun’an receives the news, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not be in a hurry to jump over the wall.”
Zhang Tao also said: "Since that's the case, it's really not delayed."
Zhang Tao is not a fool either. There is no need to punish Deputy Kong. Now he sells favors, and there are many convenient places in the future.
Deputy Envoy Kong looked at Zhang Tao with gratitude and said quickly: "Yes, yes, you can't delay any more. You must not be ruthless in communicating with Japanese people."
Xu Qian had no choice but to say, "Okay, since Lord Kong is so enthusiastic, then choose a place in this villa to open the trial, which can save time."
Deputy Envoy Kong said, "Young Master Xu won't go to the trial?"
Xu Qian smiled slightly and said, "Students are not criminal officials, what's the use of listening to them? Everything is for the help of the adults."
Deputy Envoy Kong was overjoyed. In fact, what he feared most was that the person named Xu would go to the trial. At that time, Shang Zheng would say something he shouldn't say, but he was afraid that he would not be able to excuse himself.
He cheered up his spirit and showed his authority. He immediately went to the small hall next to him. The clerk had already brought tables and chairs, and he picked up his pen to prepare for records. Several servants pressed Shang Zheng up. Deputy Envoy Kong had no auspicious wood, but had
The lion roared and shouted loudly: "It's Shang Zheng in the hall!"
Shang Zheng woke up at this time. What happened today was like a dream. He originally thought that a small character like Xu Qian would just do it casually. Who knew that this would end up? He knew that Deputy Envoy Kong
He wanted to take advantage of the situation, so he sneered: "Hello, Lord Kong."
"Bold!" Deputy Envoy Kong slapped the table, his voice and expression were stern: "You are waiting for a slut, and I didn't ask you what you said, so you dare to say something, come on, slap your mouth!"
Several officers were not polite, and the two of them held Shang Zheng tightly. The other officer suddenly held up his chin, held a wooden sign in his other hand, and slapped Shang Zheng's mouth fiercely.
Just a few efforts, Shang Zheng vomited blood in his mouth, but he was also tough and shouted: "My surname is Kong, every year Bingjing and Tanjing, during the holidays, my business also gives you a lot of benefits. You
I have been with my family for three generations, is that what I do to me? You thief..."
Deputy Envoy Kong winked at the recorder. The clerk understood and immediately put down his pen and stopped recording.
Then, Deputy Envoy Kong's eyes were faint, but he was not as angry as before. He slowly said: "Brother Shang, a gentleman does not set up a dangerous wall. Your surnamed Shang is looking for death, so why should you drag someone into the water? Listen to my official words, you
Just admit it.”
Shang Zheng shouted: "The merchant is innocent, what did you ask me to admit?"
Deputy Envoy Kong Senran sneered: "Diet to the point of death, you still don't see the coffin and shed tears. Your business violated the national policy of banning the sea, went to sea to do business privately, colluded with Japanese pirates, and made ill-intentioned plans. This is a serious crime of raiding the house and extermination of the clan. The court has already obtained the evidence.
If you want to be gentle, you should just admit it honestly, otherwise..."
Shang Zheng was dizzy when he heard it, especially the four words "indiscipline" that almost made him faint again.
At this time, Deputy Envoy Kong slapped the table hard: "Come on, let's fight first!"

But on the other side, many things were found in the other courtyard, including two Western firearms and one Japanese knife.
Logically speaking, there are many wealthy people who collect this kind of thing, but now this thing has become a proof of going into the sea. As for the account book, it is vague, but the in and out is huge, and it is often the in and out of thousands of taels of silver.
It is also shocking.
Another official seal was found in the warehouse. It was obvious that the official seal was made of an ivory, but the words engraved on it were the words "Nanyang County Houye".
This is a big deal. In the Ming Dynasty, there was indeed a Marquis of Nanyang County, named Ye Chen, who was also from Zhejiang. He was a founding hero. Because he was killed by rebels, he was posthumously named Marquis of Nanyang County.
Logically speaking, Mr. Ye has been dead for many years, but the question is why this ivory official seal is in the business? Because the official seal is generally used for burial, this official seal is naturally a burial object.
If you think about it this way, the matter will be explained. This official seal was from the tomb robber, and the tomb of the Gonghou of the Ming Dynasty was robbed. Not to mention whether the merchants directly participated in the tomb robbery, hiding such things is definitely a serious crime.
.
Zhang Qianhu was also excited. Unexpectedly, he had not obtained the ironclad evidence of the Japanese communication, and he had already found such a crime. He squinted his eyes and understood in his heart that the merchant was really finished this time.
And at this time, another thing was searched, a sheepskin chart.
Xu Qian and Zhang Qianhu carefully checked the chart, and Xu Qian couldn't help but say: "This chart is the terrain of the South Ocean. What's the use of a gentleman who wants this chart?"
Zhang Qianhu pursed his lips and said, "That's not enough." After a moment of silence, he said, "But I believe there will be progress on Lord Kong."
After Zhang Qianhu said that, he looked at Xu Qian and smiled.
Everyone knows that Master Kong will make progress, and it is impossible to do without progress. Everyone has already seen Master Kong's power.
Sure enough, two hours later, Deputy Envoy Kong came over with surprise and said excitedly: "I have already admitted it. The traitor Shang Zheng has admitted that the merchant went into the business without permission, but he will not admit that he is in the Japanese no matter what."
Zhang Qianhu sneered: "It is also a serious crime to confiscate the family and exterminate the clan when going out of the sea. Just admit it."
Xu Qian said to Deputy Envoy Kong: "Sir, will it be a slander? If so, this confession may not be useful."
Deputy Envoy Kong's face was flushed with excitement and said, "What are you saying? How can he be willing to deal with such evil thieves without being punished? Such a serious crime has always been accused of severe punishment. After all, it is related to the loss of the head. Naturally,
They all deny it in every way. Besides, I have not only tried a Shangzheng, but also several managers and accounting offices of the merchant have confessed, saying that the merchant has coerced them to do many shameful things."
Deputy Envoy Kong said with confidence and looked irrelevant with the merchants.
Xu Qian had no choice but to say: "Yes, yes, students don't understand the matter of punishment, so naturally the adults have the final say."
At this moment, a Jinyi Captain came in outside to report: "The great lord of Zhejiang governor, the chief inspector, the general officer of Zhejiang, the general magistrate, the general general of the navy, and other adults arrived."
Deputy Envoy Kong was so scared that his face was pale and said, "Everyone...What are you doing here for?"
