The news that Ximen Hong was taken away soon spread among the government.
First the governor, then the mayor.
The two incidents were like two bombs exploding in the Sichuan government, causing huge turmoil. Officials were panicked and began to worry that they would be taken away. The turmoil in the government was not Liu Jintang's concern. As long as the army was still there, the government would After the chaos was over, Liu Jintang took Ximen Hong back to the military camp, sent Ximen Hong to Li Zhen's office, and then withdrew.
After Ximen Hong sat down, he asked respectfully: "The president has called me. What's the matter?"
Li Zhen said: "Let you confess the crime you committed."
brush,.
Ximenhong's face changed drastically and he said in a loss of voice: "What do you mean by what the president said? I have been the mayor of Chengdu for many years. During my tenure, I worked hard and did not dare to slack off. Why do I commit crimes?"
Li Zhen raised the corner of his mouth and asked: "You are a smart person, don't you know what is going on?"
"I don't know." Ximen Hong shook his head.
A cold light flashed in Li Zhen's eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "If you confess, you will be lenient, and if you resist, you will be severely punished. If you take the initiative to confess the crime you committed, then the country can consider giving you an appropriate reduction of punishment. If you persist in persisting, then the crime will be punished." Add one more."
Ximen Hong was shocked, but continued: "I really don't know."
Li Zhen shook his head and said: "It seems that you have made up your mind to pretend to be stupid, whatever."
After a pause, Li Zhen shouted: "Here comes someone."
A soldier walked in and Li Zhen ordered: "Bring Jiang Changbai and Wei He in."
"yes."
After the soldiers left, Li Zhen sighed softly.
At this moment, Ximen Hong's heart seemed to fall into the abyss. His heart was cold and cold, because Wei He and Jiang Changbai were both his confidants. Now that Li Zhen sent people to call Jiang Changbai and Wei He in, Ximen Hong couldn't help but guess. What happened, and why was He Jun obviously taken away, but now the situation suddenly changed and he was also taken away.
From the tone and manner of Li Zhen's conversation with him, it was revealed that he already knew about his crime. This kind of thing made Ximen Hong very puzzled.
what happened.
The whole process of his planning was flawless, so why was he discovered?
Not long after, Jiang Changbai and Wei He were brought in.
The two of them saw Mayor Ximen Hong sitting in the room, their eyes flickering and a little erratic. But the next moment, Wei He and Jiang Changbai's eyes became firm. Wei He was afraid that he would be killed, so he pointed at Ximen Hong and shouted loudly. He yelled: "The president, it's him, it's Ximen Hong who lured me with benefits, which led me to frame Governor He. This is all Ximen Hong's fault, I'm innocent."
In an instant, Ximen Hong felt like he was struck by thunder.
What kind of fuss is this?
Before Ximen Hong could react, Jiang Changbai pointed at Ximen Hong and said loudly: "President, it was Ximen Hong who threatened me. If I don't agree, I will definitely not be able to stay in the government. It's not my fault. It's really not my fault." Blame it on me, it would be difficult for the president to make a choice in this situation."
After hearing Jiang Changbai's words, Ximen Hong was completely desperate.
Unexpectedly, these two people actually confessed everything at the critical moment.
But what exactly prompted them to confess.
Ximen Hong was accused by two people. He already knew that he could not escape and must be doomed. He took the initiative and said: "President, I admit that I planned to assassinate Vice Premier Shi Dakai and also planned to get rid of Governor He Jun. However, I am very curious. What kind of means did you use to make the two of you confess everything?"
Li Zhen smiled and said calmly: "Because the six major families have not stood in your position and have surrendered to me. Of course, when I interrogated Wei Xu and Jiang Changbai, I also used some small tricks. When I interrogated Wei He, Not only did I say that people from the six major families had confessed all the crimes committed by Ximen Hong, but I also said that Jiang Changbai had also confessed his crime. In this way, Wei Xu had confessed everything clearly. When I interrogated Jiang Changbai, I said that Wei He had confessed everything. Jiang Changbai also failed to insist on the matter."
"It's amazing. After all, it's the president who is amazing."
Ximen Hong gave a thumbs up, with a look of surprise in his eyes.
Unexpectedly, he was defeated so quickly.
Ximen Hong added: "President, I have another question. Now that He Jun has been arrested, why do you suspect me? What is the reason?"
Li Zhen said: "At first, I was a little surprised that you strongly resisted a thorough investigation into the assassination of Vice Premier Shi. Later, the six major families turned to me and directly confessed you."
Ximen Hong sighed lightly and said, "It's a pity. I didn't expect that I would fall into a bunch of idiots."
Li Zhen snorted and said: "The Skynet is vast and meticulous. Since you have committed a crime, you should expect to be caught one day. Unfortunately, you have talent, means, and scheming, but you have used it in the wrong place."
Ximen Hong was silent for a long time and said, "President, I have a request."
"explain."
Li Zhen waved his hands.
Ximen Hong looked serious and said in a deep voice: "As the saying goes, no harm will come to the wife and children. I committed a serious crime, but my affairs have nothing to do with my family from beginning to end. I hope that after the president executes me, he can let go of my wife, children, parents, and them. If you don’t know about my affairs, please ask the President to be accommodating."
Li Zhen nodded and said: "The country will confiscate your ill-gotten gains, and your family will also give you some help so that they can continue to live. They are not as guilty as your wife, children and parents. This can be done."
Ximen Hong breathed a sigh of relief and said, "In that case, please ask the president to execute me."
At the same time, Jiang Changbai and Wei He both became nervous.
They looked at Li Zhen, hoping that Li Zhen would be accommodating and spare their lives.
Li Zhenxin felt like Ming Jing'er, and said: "Although you two confessed your crimes, why didn't you confess when nothing happened before? Since you have committed a crime, you must get the punishment you deserve. You committed murder alone." Vice Prime Minister Shi Dakai, a man who murdered the governor of a province by himself, if he can survive such a crime, then what prestige does the country have? He must be shot."
Ximen Hong laughed loudly and said: "The President is wise. If these spineless people stay, it will be a disaster. If two people die with me, I will not be lonely on the road to hell."
"Here comes someone."
Li Zhen shouted, and the soldiers came in immediately.
"Take them out and shoot them all."
After the soldiers received the order, the soldiers outside quickly walked in and quickly took Ximen Hong, Wei He and Jiang Changbai out to be shot. After the three were executed, Li Zhen sent someone to invite He Jun into the room and restored He Jun's body. freedom and official position, and then had people escort He Jun back to the government. At the same time, the army controlled by Liu Jintang ransacked the Ximen family with thunderous means, confiscated all the land, and dismissed all the servants in the house, leaving only the family members.
After Ximen Hong was executed, a mayor became vacant in Chengdu, Sichuan Province. Many government officials became more active and began to work actively, thinking about taking further steps.
