Chapter 1215 Mastermind

Chapter 1215 Mastermind

Maybe Ogawazi took a fancy to this and took the risk.

In addition, the person he uses personally must be clean, so Li Chen needs to check Xiaochuanzi thoroughly.

After handling Xiaochuanzi's matter, Li Chen came back and learned that Zhao Rui had actually pried open the palace maid's mouth, which surprised Li Chen.

"I don't remember that you still use torture." Li Chen teased Zhao Rui.

Zhao Rui, who had just taken a breath, blushed slightly and said, "Although I don't know how to interrogate, I know how to manipulate other people's psychology."

"This palace maid seems to be fierce and vicious, but in fact the more such a person is, the more she has a certain death mentality, and the more she fears the torture before death."

"Because in his opinion, knowing that he is bound to die, he might as well go for another happy one."

"Anyway, you won't know anything after death. There is no need to pay the extra price of torture for a predetermined outcome."

"Of course, the premise is that he can break through his psychological defense. Otherwise, she may be willing to die with the secret of who is the mastermind behind it."

"That makes sense." Li Chen nodded in agreement.

While the two were talking, the palace maid who was only half breathing was brought up.

Li Chen saw that her fingers were bloody and bloody, and her fingernails were missing, and he knew that she must have suffered extremely cruel torture before.

But Li Chen didn't care.

Facing the person who almost killed him, Li Chen wished she would die soon.

After receiving the confession handed over by Jin Yiwei, Li Chen frowned after reading it once.

Originally, Li Chen thought it would be the feudal king or Yelu Shenxuan, or even Zhao Xuanji, but it turned out to be none of these three parties.

The real mastermind behind the scenes turned out to be someone Li Chen had never thought of... Hu Pi.

Under Li Chen's high pressure on the grain price case a few days ago, the Ministry of Punishment, the Inspectorate, and the Dongchang investigated and closed the case in the shortest possible time, and then submitted the closing report as soon as possible.

The investigation of this case was very clear, and the main culprits were the two brothers Hu Ganwei.

Although Hu Pi was their father, and most of the officials Hu Gan was looking for for the two brothers had the courage to intervene because of Hu Pi's presence, the facts proved that Hu Pi himself had nothing to do with this case.

It's just that he was implicated.

Therefore, although he was questioned, he was not immediately questioned and executed like the two brothers Hu Ganwei.

Instead, he was detained in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, waiting for his release to the frontier in the autumn, which was also approved by Li Chen.

But Hu Pi, who was sitting in prison, actually had the ability to instigate the palace maid to assassinate him. This incident made Li Chen feel that everything was fishy.

Picking up the confession with two fingers, Li Chen said to the palace maid: "Do you know what will happen if you frame it indiscriminately?"

Panting heavily, the pain made the palace maid almost faint again, but she still gritted her teeth and said: "I don't need to lie to you. Anyway, the end is death for me. Since I told you, I will tell you the truth. Just

I wish for a happy death.”

Li Chen said indifferently: "In your confession, you said that you were the girl in Hu Pi's house. He asked someone to bring you a letter from the prison, and he hoped that you would find a way to enter the East Palace and assassinate me. Is there any evidence for this statement?

?”

The palace maid said weakly: "The letter that my lord asked someone to bring is on me. You can find out if you search it."

Li Chen waved his hand, and an eunuch immediately stepped forward. He reached out and searched randomly on the palace maid's body, and sure enough he found a letter.
