In a dark room, Zhu Gaoyan, Su Wu, Lou Guangxu, and Zhang Qixin sat around a table.
Previously, at the end of the dinner, Zhang Qixin gave instructions to Zhu Gaoyan, and he took Mr. Lou to the side room in the backyard.
Because there are some things that he has already figured out. Instead of being frightened, it is better to be frank and lenient now.
"Papa -"
Zhang Qixin clapped his hands, and a figure who was tied up and stuffed with rags was pushed in.
Several people took a closer look. Isn't this the master they saw just now? Why was Zhang Qixin tied up?
Just when several people wanted to ask what was going on, Zhang Qixin suddenly pushed away the bench and knelt directly in front of the three people.
"???"
Now Zhu Gaoyan and Su Wu were even more confused.
What kind of medicine did Zhang Qixin take? His brain was burned out, right?
"Master Lou is affectionate. The data is unclear about the relationship between Miss Deng and Master Lou. I was tempted by Master to respect the design and persecuted Miss Deng. I hope Master Lou will atone for his sins!"
oh?
Zhu Gaoying and Su Wu looked like they were watching a show, and they were just holding a pot of melon seeds at this moment.
"explain!"
"The cause of the matter needs to start when Mr. Zhao and Mr. Su entered Pingshou County..."
Zhang Qixin quickly explained everything that happened.
From the initial tip-off by Boss Lan of the inn, to later when he invited Boss Lan, Boss Nie, and Boss Jia to Wangchun Tower, to the conspiracy with Master after the race track, to sending someone to deliver a message to Lord Zhao, and all the trivial matters up to now.
Among them, Zhang Qixin even told all the things that happened between the master and Yan Ming. However, Zhang Qixin did not mention the fact that the minting furnace was secretly taken away.
But at this moment, this was the tied up Master, who was already frightened out of his wits and his whole body was trembling.
"You mean, Boss Nie and Boss Jia have secretly committed a lot of dirty things, and you have already collected the evidence and are ready to put them in jail at any time."
"But you never expected that this master was instructed by Yan Ming, arranged everything in advance, and poisoned Boss Nie and Boss Jia in Wangchun Tower the day before yesterday!"
Zhu Gaoyuan figured out the relationship behind it, and secretly admired it. This was really a wonderful move.
If he hadn't pretended to be a playboy on the street a few days ago, the lustful intention he deliberately showed when meeting Zhang Qixing in Wangchun Tower today had inadvertently exposed the key to the plan behind Yan Ming and this master.
If I go one step further, I am afraid that Zhang Qixin and this master will be kept in the dark during the subsequent investigation.
After hearing this, Lou Guangxu couldn't help but clicked his tongue in his heart. It was thanks to His Majesty that he did not have sex with Deng Rong. Otherwise, everyone related to this matter would probably be executed.
A prostitute in a brothel had a relationship with the Yellow Emperor. Even if the woman was an oiran, if word spread, it would be a great shame for the majesty of the royal family.
Don't talk about becoming a relative of the emperor, being named a concubine, wake up, these are all illusions. In fact, there are thousands of ministers at this moment who want to tear you to pieces!
The emperor actually had a relationship with a prostitute, what could be possible? His status as an emperor cannot be touched by his dignity, but as a prostitute, you are so mean, you can kill and destroy at will!
"Hmph, take out the strip of cloth from his mouth, and I want to ask him what he has to say today!"
Lou Guangxu pretended to be angry, which made the master who collapsed on the ground dare not speak even more. Of course, this was also the result Zhang Qixin wanted. After all, it would be impossible for the master in such a state to mention the matter of casting counterfeit coins, otherwise
Unless he wants a worse way to die.
"Lord Lou, villain, villain, I was just confused for a moment and believed what Yan Ming said!"
"As long as you spare my life, I can do whatever you want me to do!"
"I know, I'll do it all!"
However, we have already reached this point, and I am afraid that continuing to interrogate this cause will be of no use.
"Where is Zhang Qixin, the magistrate of Pingshou County?"
"The official is here!"
"Although you are a criminal, I will give you an opportunity to imprison this person and interrogate him strictly!"
"When I bring Na Yanming to justice, we will hold a joint trial together at another day!"
Hearing this, Zhang Qixin finally felt a big stone in his heart and responded quickly:
"I have my order!"
At this time, Zhu Gaoyan suddenly thrust a Yongle Tongbao into Lou Guangxu's hand.
Although Zhang Qixin's statement just now was coherent and reasonable, Zhu Gaoyan also noticed something wrong. For example, why did Zhang Qixin get connected with those businessmen? Was it because of the introduction by this master?
This master is from Yanming, why did he come to Zhang Qixin's side?
There must be a reason missing.
There was only one thing Zhu Gaoyang could think of, and that was Yongle Tongbao.
Lou Guangxu took it in his hand and instantly understood what Zhu Gaoyan meant.
This Zhang Qixin has one very important thing that he has not yet explained.
Zhu Gaoyan's idea is also very simple. If Zhang Qixin can explain everything verbatim, then he can atone for his sins.
However, he missed the crime he committed.
It's very simple. You have merit, right? You should be rewarded and promoted.
But minting counterfeit coins is a capital crime, no matter how high your official position is.
I'll give you an official promotion first, and then I'll send you to behead directly!
If Zhang Qixin knew what Zhu Gaoyen was thinking at this time, he would definitely cry out for injustice.
Because he was injured now, he didn't know clearly whether Lou Guangxu wanted to cooperate with the people who minted counterfeit coins, or what he meant.
If he tells the story about the counterfeit money and admits his mistake, what if Mr. Lou wants to use the minting of counterfeit money to seek violence?
In the end, he and Lou Guangxu were still bound to die.
So he struggled for a long time between telling or not telling, and finally chose to conceal the matter first.
"Okay, you all go out, Zhang Qixin, you stay, I have something to ask you in this article!"
Zhu Gaoying pulled Su Wu out, and by the way, he also dragged the master out.
When no one was in the room, Lou Guangxu slowly spoke.
"Master Zhang, do you know why I keep you here?"
"I don't know..."
Zhang Qixin really couldn't understand.
"Haha, let's do this. I'll show you something and you'll understand!"
Lou Guangxu took out a Yongle Tongbao from his sleeve. Seeing the copper coin, Zhang Qixin looked at Lou Guangxu, quietly waiting for his next words.
"I don't know. Does Mr. Lou know how this Yongle Tongbao was made?"
