Two hundred and forty-eight chapters approximate scope
"Okay, I will go with you." Mao Xiang was stood up, and after thinking about it, he decided to accompany Han Du this time as a way to repay Han Du's favor.
If Han Du hadn't been involved by him, the current scene wouldn't have happened. If Mao Xiang had interrogated the female officer alone, she might have died without getting anything out of the interrogation. Now he finally got it.
Although Fang Benzhai's hiding place was not revealed in the end, he could barely explain the incident to the emperor. Seeing that Han Du had already helped him in the front, Mao Xiang thought that his responsibility was not heavy, so he
Decided to meet the emperor with Han Du.
"Master Han, please wait outside for a moment. How about I take the confession and then meet the emperor with you?" Mao Xiang said to Han Du politely.
"Then thank you Master Mao." Han Du gratefully clasped his fists and saluted Mao Xiang.
Mao Xiang watched Han Du leave, and the smile on his face gradually faded as Han Du left.
While Mao Xiang was bowing his head in thought, a subordinate brought up a stack of confessions and said, "Sir, all the confessions are here."
Mao Xiang looked stunned and asked quietly: "What are you doing?"
"My lord, don't you want a confession?" the subordinate replied matter-of-factly.
When did I ever say I wanted a confession? Besides, even if you really want it, you can't wait for me to think it over clearly?
Mao Xiang accepted the confession without letting anyone see his reluctance, and said, "Well, I want it."
Seeing that his subordinates had a flattering smile on their faces after listening to his words, Mao Xiang felt that the quality of his subordinates was worrying. He asked, "What do you think of Mr. Han just now?"
When the subordinate heard this, his face stiffened, and he tentatively asked Mao Xiang, "Did your subordinate really say that?"
Mao Xiang glanced at his subordinates strangely. Haha, now he knows how to be careful? Then he nodded and said affirmatively: "Well, tell me."
"My subordinates think that Mr. Han looks young, but I think he is a bit scary."
So the reason why you are so casual in front of me is that I didn't make you afraid? Mao Xiang glanced at his subordinate casually and continued to ask: "Why are you so afraid?"
The subordinate smiled, rubbed his head with a confused look on his face, and murmured to himself: "I can't tell. It's just that when he looked at his subordinate, he felt as if he was not wearing any clothes.
It’s like standing on the street.”
I see.
Mao Xiang nodded, looked at the others, and asked, "What about you?"
The others looked at each other and bowed in response.
"It's the same for me..."
Mao Xiang looked calm, nodded, and ordered: "No one is allowed to reveal a word about today's events. Violators will die!"
There was a coldness in the voice, and everyone felt instantly transformed and chilled, and they quickly replied in unison: "As ordered."
What the adults are talking about is death. The result of death may be the same as that of beheading, but the process is completely different. To behead, one blow kills a hundred people. Those who are highly skilled can even make the person who is beheaded not feel even a trace of pain.
That's it. But death is different. What adults mean by death is that you have to suffer enough sins before you die.
"In addition, you are not allowed to provoke him." Mao Xiang warned everyone sternly. After today's scene, Mao Xiang did not want to conflict with Han Du. "If you have to run into him, you must report it to me as soon as possible.
"
"yes......"
After giving instructions to his subordinates, Mao Xiang took the confession and followed Han Du to meet the emperor.
As soon as he saw Lao Zhu, Han Du immediately knelt down to plead guilty. "Wei Chen is guilty."
"Is she dead?" Upon hearing Han Du's words, Lao Zhu asked quickly with a fierce look in his eyes.
"Yes." Han Du replied honestly.
"How did you die?" Lao Zhu yelled angrily, and his eyes turned to Mao Xiang involuntarily. Didn't I tell you not to let the female officer die? How did you, Mao Xiang, do things?
In Lao Zhu's eyes, Han Du, a civil servant, didn't understand interrogation at all. Since the female officer died, it must have been caused by Mao Xiang's torture to extract a confession. I gave her countless instructions to keep her alive, just to make her suffer.
Yes, to vent the hatred in my heart. You, Mao Xiang, let her die so cheaply, leaving me with no target for my anger. Could it be that you, Mao Xiang, want to replace her and seek death?
As soon as Mao Xiang saw the emperor's eyes, he knew that the emperor had misunderstood. He felt as if thousands of troops were rushing past, and his face became extremely pale. He quickly explained: "Your Majesty, you don't care about Wei Chen. Wei Chen has always been
They all followed the emperor's instructions, and the punishments were all done with great care. That's..."
"It's Wei Chen's fault." Han Du straightened up and admitted. It was impossible not to admit it in front of Lao Zhu. At this point, Han Du could only bear the responsibility himself, and no one could help.
Then, Han Du told the whole story in a few words.
Originally, Lao Zhu frowned when he heard that the death of the female officer was related to Han Du. He thought that Han Du did not understand the interrogation and acted recklessly, which caused the death of the female officer. But as Han Du told the story, Lao Zhu discovered
It turned out not to be what I thought.
Han Du didn't even come close to the female officer, he just sat on the chair and scared the female officer to death with just one mouth.
Is there such a thing?
"Is what Han Du said true?" Lao Zhu looked at Mao Xiang.
Mao Xiang breathed a sigh of relief and quickly replied: "Back to the emperor, it's absolutely true. The minister was beside Han Du at the time and saw everything clearly."
After saying that, he quickly presented the confession in his hand. "Here is the confession as evidence. Please read it to your Majesty."
As Lao Zhu opened the confession, the expression on his face became more and more surprised. He did not expect that Han Du had such exquisite thoughts. The female officer could guess the same thing without saying a word, as if he saw it with his own eyes.
See general.
At the end, Lao Zhu felt deeply regretful that the female officer did not disclose the location until her death. She was obviously defenseless, so why was she so frightened to death?
Seeing the female officer die in despair, the anger in Lao Zhu's heart was relieved a little. She used such a method to kill her grandson, and in the end she herself also died. She deserved it.
At the same time, Lao Zhu also understood that the female officer's death was too sudden. Although there was a reason why Han Du was pressing on her step by step, it really had little to do with Han Du.
In addition, Han Du had some merit in this matter, so there was no thought of punishing Han Du.
Putting his hand on the confession, Lao Zhu looked up at Han Du and asked, "Can anyone guess where Fang Benzhai is hiding?"
Han Du replied truthfully: "Wei Chen naturally has no way to guess the exact location, but Wei Chen can guess a rough range."
