Liu Si told all about Cheng Gongying’s position and some previous experiences.
Jia Rong immediately ordered: "Surround Han Sui's mansion secretly, don't let the news leak out, and bring Cheng Gongying to me."
Liu Si clasped his fists in agreement and left in a hurry.
The note found in Feng Lai Lou's box made Zhang Xiu monitor Feng Lai Lou even more closely. However, everything changed from the bright side to the dark side. He did too many embarrassing things to a businessman on the bright side.
It will change the merchants' impression of Chang'an and delay the development of the Xiliang Army. In the long run, it will be extremely unfavorable. It is better to offend a few merchants than leave a bad impression in the hearts of all merchants.
Fengya stood outside the box, feeling uneasy. When did there be such a hidden compartment in the box? Fengya asked herself whether she had given Fenglai Tower full authority to others to decorate it, so she had considered so many things. She didn't know about the box until what happened today.
There is something else going on inside. Maybe what the Xiliang Army has been investigating recently is related to the secret compartment in the box. The fire at the city gate has affected Chiyu, and Feng Lailou's future fate is also worrying. Although the ladies of the General's Mansion,
After some interactions, Feng Ya understood more clearly that Jia Rong was too strong in military and political affairs and did not allow anyone to interfere, not even Wei Fu.
"Shopkeeper Feng, General, please come in."
"General, little lady"
Jia Rong waved his hand and said: "This matter has a lot to do with Feng Lailou. Even if you, the master, don't know it, you can't escape the blame. There have been many times when men in black assassinated officials in Chang'an City, and the impact is extremely bad. This matter
If it cannot be handled properly, what prestige does the General's Mansion have?"
Fengya bowed her head and said yes. The handle was in Jia Rong's hands, so Fengya didn't dare to argue any more.
"You go back first. Don't mention what happened in the box to anyone."
"yes!"
After Feng Ya went away, Jia Rong turned his attention to sisters Li Ying and Li Yu. These two people had witnessed the entire process just now. Jia Rong believed that they would not go out and talk nonsense. As members of the assassination, Wang Yue gave them to them first.
It's about keeping secrets, how to ensure that your identity is not leaked in all kinds of dangerous situations.
With a clear goal in mind, Lone Wolf quickly took action. Many unfamiliar faces appeared outside Han Sui's mansion. These people were either small businessmen or ordinary people walking around without anything to do. They didn't pay attention to Han Sui's mansion at all.
One glance.
Han Sui, a figure like Han Sui, had strictly ordered his family not to go out casually when the assassination occurred in Chang'an City. At this time, if Jia Rong was to catch him, it would not be that simple. He was still in the army that day and had certain
Now Han Sui has no official position and his family is not that rich. From a generation of warlords, he has been directly reduced to an ordinary citizen who is not as good as a rich man. It is better to say that it is because of his daughter's affairs than because of the lack of money in his hands.
Authority, no matter when, if there is no power in the hands, the fate that will follow is very terrible.
There were so many strange faces suddenly appearing outside the house. The servants guarding the house didn't think anything of it. Countless merchants and common people came in and out of Chang'an City every day. Even when the armies of the princes came to Hangu Pass, there was still no change. Strange faces appeared.
The face is really normal.
Cheng Gongying was taken to the General's Mansion.
Jia Rong sat upright and said in a gentle voice: "Master Cheng, do you know why the Japanese general called you here today?"
Cheng Gongying was a middle-aged man, but he was quite elegant by birth. He said "Rushan", which was not an official uniform. Hearing this, he cupped his hands and said: "I don't know how to humble my position. Please tell me clearly, general!"
Jia Rong asked: "Why doesn't Mr. Cheng wear official uniform?"
"The matter is urgent. I have humbled myself and did not change my clothes. Please forgive me, General." Cheng Gongying said calmly.
"There was a case of men in black assassinating officials in the city. You must have heard about it, right?"
Cheng Gongying's body trembled slightly, and then returned to normal. Jia Rong, who was staring at Cheng Gongying with stern eyes, naturally noticed this scene, with an imperceptible sneer at the corner of his mouth. Through his subtle expression, Jia Rong was sure that this Cheng Gongying must be the same as Cheng Gongying.
The man in black has some connections, and it seems that Han Sui has no intention of giving up.
"This matter has made a big fuss in the city, and even humble officials have heard about it." Cheng Gongying said, his tone was calm, making it impossible to find any fault.
Jia Rong smiled and said: "Oh, Master Cheng, tell me what you think of the man in black."
Cheng Gongying cupped his hands and said, "You don't dare to trust yourself in front of the general." When Jia Rong sent someone to summon Cheng Gongying to his house, he felt something was wrong. He tried to change his clothes, but Liu Si refused. It can be said that
Liu Si immediately brought him to Jia Rong.
"What is the relationship between Mr. Cheng and the man in black? Let's tell the truth. Considering your hard work for Chang'an for many years, this general may leave you intact."
Cheng Gongying knelt on the ground with a bang and said: "General, I don't know anything in this humble position. Please be aware of it, General."
Jia Rong asked: "Did the general say you know anything?"
Mr. Cheng was stuck in English and could not explain clearly.
"Master Cheng was considered a hero for a while when he was under General Han's tent. Don't you even have the courage to admit what you have done?" Jia Rong said coldly.
Cheng Gongying's face kept changing, he stood up from the ground, his expression changed from the fear just now to indifferent, and said: "Yes, the men in black are indeed related to Beizi, but when the men in black found Beizi, Beizi rejected them
The conditions proposed.”
"What happens next?" Jia Rong looked at Cheng Gongying's disobedient behavior and became more gentle instead of angry.
"Later they found Bei Zhi's son, and Bei Zhi finally learned that the assassination incident in the city was related to getting married. Bei Zhi was ashamed of his kindness to the general and only wanted a quick death!"
Jia Rong said: "Why didn't you report this to the general's office in the first place?"
Cheng Gongying's face had already turned gray, and he already had the will to die in his heart. He didn't care what Jia Rong said, "I just want to die quickly!"
Seeing that he couldn't ask anything for a while, Jia Rong said coldly: "Take him down!"
Naturally, Zhang Xiu didn't have a good look towards traitors. In the face of the interests of the Xiliang Army and his family, Cheng Gongying's failure to make the right decision was no different from betraying the Xiliang Army. He secretly attacked the lone wolf soldiers along the way.
He also turned a blind eye to the matter. If it weren't for his identity, he would have wanted to go up and give him a few punches.
"Bring Cheng Gongying's son up!" Jia Rong said.
Liu Si hurried away, and about half an hour later, Cheng Gongying's son was brought up.
When he saw Jia Rong, his body was trembling uncontrollably, and it was obvious that he was extremely fearful in his heart.
Jia Rong shook his head slightly, how could such a person become a partner of the man in black, be able to take away the weapons in the Chang'an craftsman's workshop, and secretly plan a series of assassinations in the city? It would never be that simple, Cheng Gongying's son
, and it is definitely impossible to be the candidate to contact the man in black. This shows that Cheng Gongying is not the person behind the scenes.
"Your father has already recruited them all. Tell me, what do you know?" This time it was Liu Si who interrogated.
After rolling his eyes twice, Cheng Gongying's son bowed: "General, I'm wronged. This villain doesn't know anything."
Liu Si went up and kicked him, and said in a cold voice: "If you don't tell me the truth, I will let you taste the blood now."
"Excuse me, General. I will definitely tell you everything I know!"
"May I have your name?"
"Cheng Mu." Cheng Mu hurriedly replied, fearing that he would be greeted by Liu Si next to him. He had lived under the glory of his father since he was a child. Cheng Mu had never been treated like this. He was a businessman in the city. When he heard his father's name, he
It will also give some face.
"Official position?"
"none."
Like the managers of later generations, Liu Si cross-examined Cheng Mu, almost asking him how many meals he ate a day.
"Do you know Deng Zhan?" Liu Si stared at Cheng Mu and explained: "He is an old man with some white hair. He has a sword hanging on his waist. He is very skilled in martial arts and is often followed by men in black."
Seeing Cheng Mu nodding, Liu Si stepped forward and grabbed Cheng Mu and said: "You also said that you have nothing to do with the assassination in the city?"
Cheng Mu's face changed drastically and he said: "General, I've only met this villain once." Under the deterrence of the various punishments Liu Si had just dictated, Cheng Mu's psychological defenses had been broken down, and he knew everything he wanted to say.
"Where did you see it?" Jia Rong asked.
"General Han's residence!"
Jia Rong's face suddenly turned gloomy. He didn't expect that this incident was really related to Han Sui. Could it be that he was removed from his official position? Han Sui was unhappy and wanted to create a series of assassinations to scare the Xiliang army. But like this
What good is it to him? After being investigated, it will bring death to the whole Han family? After calming down a little, Jia Rong feels that things will never be that simple. Even if Han Sui meets Deng Zhan, he will not let Cheng Mu
This idiot knows that anyone who does big things pays great attention to details. Han Sui, who was born as a warlord, is a good planner.
Too much energy has been spent on investigating the matter of the men in black. Officials and businessmen in the city are panicking. If this continues, it will be very detrimental to the development of the Xiliang Army. Jia Rong also has the idea of closing the case hastily and orders Lone Wolf to general
Han Sui's entire family was taken to prison to be executed on a day-to-day basis.
The case of the man in black that made people in the city panic, the General's Office also stated clearly that it had been solved, and Han Sui and Cheng Gongying became the targets of constant curses and secret curses by the common people and businessmen.
However, the senior officials of the Xiliang Army knew that this matter was not that simple. If the men in black were able to take Jia Rong away from the general's palace in Chang'an City, would it be so simple for Han Sui and Cheng Gongying?
Late at night, Jia Rong, dressed in black, led by a lone wolf soldier, came to the prison in the city. After all, Han Sui was also a figure. His surrender that year won a lot of money for the rapid development of the Xiliang Army.
When Cheng Mu recruits Han Sui, no matter how careful Han Sui is, he will inevitably end up with a tragic end.
When Jia Rong ordered Han Sui to be removed from his official position, he had such a clear understanding.
