Chapter 320: Fatal Blow

"Last year the official transport ship was robbed." Cao Nanxing track.

The chief's expression suddenly changed, and several other chiefs rushed over, surrounding Cao Nanxing.

Robbery of a public vessel is a felony!

Cao Nanxing shook his whole body, but remained motionless.

Soon, Cao Nanxing was brought in, and the person in charge of the Fengtian Mansion raised questions in person.

Not long after, the governor of the government stared at the chief behind him and lowered his voice: "Watch him, if there is anything wrong, I will take your heads!"

Startled, he responded quickly.

The governor hurried to the backyard and knocked on the door of North Zhili Governor Kou Tan.

Kou Tan was about to take a rest when he saw him coming in and said, "What's wrong?"

The official's name was Yan Si. He looked at Kou Tan and said, "Sir, the official ship was robbed last year and someone threw himself in."

Kou Tan was shocked at first and immediately said: "Can we find out the mastermind behind this?"

Kou Tan investigated this matter last year. This is not an ordinary bandit. It has an official background, not an ordinary official!

Yan Si looked at Kou Tan, his expression changed, and said, "Sir, he said, he can say it, but he wants to save lives."

Kou Tan thought about the imminent situation, frowned, and hesitated.

What if we really ask the big shot? He has always been an invisible official, staying away from party disputes. Should he be involved at this time?

Kou Tan looked very cautious and said, "What else did he say?"

"He said that he was also ordered to kill the imperial ministers and assassinate the censors, but they all failed. Now the people behind him want to kill him. He surrendered to save his life." Yan Sisheng said.

Kou Tan sounds more dignified. The people behind this are so arrogant that they dare to kill the imperial ministers and assassinate the censor.

Kou Tan looked at Yan Si and said, "What do you think?"

Yan Si raised his hand and said, "Sir, this matter cannot be suppressed. It is expected that the people behind Cao Nanxing will soon know that Cao Nanxing has surrendered. Moreover, if other cases occur in the future, we will not be able to absolve ourselves of the blame."

Kou Tan stood up fiercely and said: "Let's go! The summons is only for you and me."

"Yes." Yan Si tracked.

Kou Tan and Yan Si will interrogate Cao Nanxing soon, and Kou Tan will inquire and Yan Si will record it.

But half an hour later, the two of them came out with a confession, their expressions were almost the same solemn, even horrified.

They never expected that the person behind Cao Nanxing would be Cui Chengxiu, and Cui Chengxiu also sent Cao Nanxing to assassinate Lin Jing.

In the secret room, Yan Si said: "Sir, this makes sense. Cui Chengxiu was also the censor of Zuodu last year. He was responsible for investigating the water transportation fraud case and ransacking the official ships, which must be to cover up the truth. As for the assassination of Lin Jing'an, it was nothing more than Lin Jing'an - impeachment again

, forcing him to resign."

Kou Tan also always believed Cao Nanxing's statement and said hesitantly: "What should I do now?"

Yan Si looked at Kou Tan and was speechless for a moment.

Wei Zhongxian's death is like a tight string that may break at any time, causing unpredictable earthquakes in the government and the public. If the Cui Chengxiu incident is reported, it may be the straw that breaks the camel's back!

If he is detonated by Kou Tan, he will be involved in the party struggle in the court, and it will be difficult for him to survive alone.

The two were silent for a long time. Yan Si said: "Sir, this Cao Nanxing is not true. Even if something happens, we must suppress it."

Kou Tan's eyes flashed and he said, "Since I can't hold it down, I'll poke it out and let them argue! Confess again, remove some things, and take Cao Nanxing to the palace overnight."

"Yes, sir." Yan Si quickly raised his hand, feeling a little nervous at the same time.

Choi Sung-soo, the Choi Sung-soo everyone is afraid of, will really fall.

Just as Kou Tan was preparing, Cui Chengli had returned to Cui Mansion, kneeling in front of Cui Chengxiu, with her head lowered.

Cui Chengxiu was sitting on a chair with a very cold expression and empty eyes.

Luo Tianchen stood not far away, looked at Cui Chengxiu's face and said: "Sir, Lin Jing hates being forced. The second master has repeatedly attacked him, even if it will anger him."

Cui Chengxiu looked at Luo Tianchen with dim eyes and said nothing.

Cui Chengli looked up at Cui Chengxiu and did not dare to reply. He knew that he was in trouble and did not dare to say more.

Luo Tianchen felt an aura of sadness and his mind was cold. He said: "Sir, if you do nothing, Lin Jing will not remain indifferent and do nothing."

"It's too late." Cui Chengxiu sighed and whispered.

He had already had the intuition of "the end of the road". He already felt very clearly about Cui Chengli's operation.

Maybe there was no reason, but this intuition was so certain that he gave up all struggle and waited for his fate.

Luo Tianchen was willing to say: "Adults, don't give up until the end. Lin Jing is a child with a small population. Can adults really not be able to hold him?"

Cui Chengxiu's mouth moved, as if he wanted to smile but didn't.

Do you still think he was the censor of the former Zuodu? Do you still think Duke Wei was there? From the time when the late emperor became seriously ill, everything has changed, and nothing can be left to them.

To this day, this man has driven the arrogant Jiu QianSui to death just two months after he ascended the throne. Is this an ordinary emperor?

It has changed.

Luo Tianchen looked at Cui Chengxiu with an expression of despair. He was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, but he couldn't find anything that could convince him.

At the same time, Kou Tan had already brought Cao Nanxing into the palace.

Zhu Youjian looked at the confession, his face was livid, his hands were shaking, and he was so angry that he could not speak.

Kou Tan stood at the table, with his hands and head down.

Wu Bodong and Zhang Cheng stood behind Zhu Youjian, looking a little worried.

Zhu Youjian stared at the confession book, threw it away fiercely, and said angrily: "Take a look! This is what my Ming officials did! What do they want to do? Rebellion, forming a party for personal gain, robbing official ships, killing imperial ministers, and assassinating supervisors

Censor?"

Kou Tan looked moved and did not dare to speak.

Zhu Youjian still roared: "Just yesterday, the first assistant was still in front of me, praising Cui Chengxiu for his loyalty, bravery, and outstanding ability. Is this ability? If this continues, will they kill the king? Is there anything they dare not do?

….”

Ye Wansui was furious. Wu Bodong and Zhang Cheng lowered their heads and did not dare to speak.

Yesterday, Ye Wansui and his men killed two inmates because they stole palace property for gambling.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhu Youjian finally calmed down, looked at Kou Tan and said solemnly: "I order you to arrest Cui Chengxiu and his gang members immediately, conduct strict interrogation, and punish them severely!"

Kou Tan looked forward to the job. He raised his hand and said, "I abide by the law."

Kou talked, but did not leave.

As soon as Zhu Youjian saw him, Leng Sheng said, "What else is there?"

Kou Tan said: "Back to Your Majesty, this matter involves a wide range of things. It is even difficult to handle it with the power of a minister."
