Following Ran Fang's suggestion, Feng Xiao left those people in the cell of Tingwei Mansion.
In order to ensure nothing goes wrong, Feng Xiao also adopted the method of tightening internally and loosening externally to make the prisoners relax their vigilance.
And secretly, Feng Xiao has sent people to monitor him. As long as someone tries to get close, he will never let him go regardless of whether he has ulterior motives or not.
In order to catch the person behind the scenes, Feng Xiao even stayed overnight at Tingwei Mansion these days.
At night, ugly time.
Feng Xiao was sleeping soundly in his room when he suddenly heard a noise coming from the direction of the cell.
He stood up immediately and saw the guards beside him running over anxiously.
"Sir, there is a riot in the prison!"
The Tingwei Mansion only imprisoned ordinary criminals, so how could anyone riot?
Could it be that Ran Fang really guessed it! ?
"Looks like someone can't wait!"
Feng Xiao sneered, immediately picked up his sword, and said sternly: "Let's go! Go and have a look!"
By the time Feng Xiao arrived, the rioters had already been arrested.
I saw a guard coming to Feng Xiao. After saying a few words, Feng Xiao's face suddenly darkened!
If Ran Fang hadn't warned him this time, it might have caused a catastrophe!
"Are there any casualties?"
The guard hesitated for a moment, and when he saw Feng Xiao's eyes that were choosing to devour others, he immediately lowered his head and reported: "One person is dead."
Feng Xiao's eyes flashed coldly.
"Interrogate throughout the night, and I must find out the person behind the scenes!"
"yes!"
Watching his subordinates leave, Feng Xiao did not relax in his heart. Instead, he felt a little more doubtful.
His intuition told him that this time things might be a bit troublesome!
Didn't sleep all night.
Feng Xiao has been waiting at the Yamen for news of the interrogation.
However, when his subordinates sent the results, Feng Xiao keenly discovered that there seemed to be something wrong with his subordinates' appearance.
"How's the interrogation going?"
The subordinate hesitated for a moment, did not speak, and just nodded.
When Feng Xiao saw this, he couldn't help but frown.
"If you have anything to say, just say it! Are you hiding Cheng He's dignity?"
When the subordinate heard this, he was not afraid to report it immediately. Instead, he hesitantly handed the booklet in his hand to Feng Xiao and whispered: "Sir, you should see the results of this interrogation first."
Hearing this, Feng Xiao's heart skipped a beat.
The subordinate said this. Could it be that something unexpected happened during the interrogation?
He took the interrogation results with a suspicious look, and after just a quick glance, he saw Feng Xiao closing the booklet in his hand with a "snap", and his expression suddenly changed.
Without waiting for his subordinates to speak, Feng Xiao asked in a deep voice: "Who else knows about this?"
The subordinate immediately bowed and said: "Counting the subordinates and the interrogators, there are only four of them!"
"You all stay in the government office. You are not allowed to leave without my order!"
"Remember, whether you can survive this matter depends entirely on whether you are obedient or not!"
The subordinate also knew what was in the booklet, so he nodded hurriedly after hearing this.
"My subordinate understands!"
Feng Xiao took a deep look at the other party, then took the booklet and left Tingwei's Mansion without saying a word, and went straight to Li Si's Mansion.
"I am Tingwei Feng Xiao. I have something important to ask to see Prime Minister Li Si."
After hearing Feng Xiao's name and looking at the current time, the guard at the door trotted to report.
Within a moment, someone came out and asked Feng Xiao to come into the house to talk.
The attendant took Feng Xiao directly to the study, where Li Si was already waiting.
As soon as he entered the door, Feng Xiao saw Li Si wearing pajamas. He looked like he had just woken up, but the sparkle in his eyes could not be ignored.
"Greetings to the Prime Minister."
Li Si waved his hand, motioning for him to sit down and said, "Why are you so panicked?"
Feng Xiao took out the assassin's confession and raised his hands in front of Li Si.
His eyes were a little solemn, and he said in an awkward tone: "Prime Minister, please take a look."
Li Si glanced at him before picking up the paper on the table and reading it carefully.
Seeing the content behind, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he asked sharply: "Is this serious?"
"It's absolutely true, how dare a subordinate to deceive the prime minister about this matter!"
Li Si also knew that even if he gave Feng Xiao ten courages, he would not dare to lie about it.
But he really couldn't figure out why this happened.
Helpless, he could only sit there and sigh deeply, hold his forehead with his hands, and asked in a low voice for a moment: "Who else knows about this?"
Feng Xiao did not dare to hide anything and told what happened in the prison just now.
"Not many people know about it. After receiving the news, I came to look for the prime minister. No one else knows about it yet."
"Prime Minister, what should we do about this matter?"
Li Si pondered for a moment, then stood up suddenly, with a dangerous look in his eyes.
"You go back now, sort out the files on the entire case, and put on your official uniform."
"As soon as day breaks, I will go into the palace with you and report this matter to Your Majesty."
Feng Xiao also knew the importance of this matter. He nodded, stood up and left without saying more.
…
Xianyang Palace.
Ying Zheng looked at the scroll on the table, his face so heavy that ink dripped from his face.
For half an hour, he sat there without saying a word. Li Si and Feng Xiao were kneeling on the ground, and no one dared to speak.
Standing there, Zhao Gao's heart began to beat suddenly. He did not expect that Hu Hai would not listen to him and actually sent people to assassinate the salt merchants.
It would be fine if the assassination was successful, but he sent people to infiltrate the suspects directly, without thinking about how to leave the prison after the assassination was successful.
Isn't this a proper way to die? !
Now was not the time to be angry. What he was thinking about was how to take it out soon.
After a while, Ying Zheng finally made a move.
He raised his head and glanced at Zhao Gao beside him. That look almost made Zhao Gao kneel on the ground.
"Send someone to escort that traitor over!"
"Here."
Zhao Gao did not dare to stop and trotted to give orders to his men.
Within a moment, Hu Hai was escorted over by the guards.
The expression on his face was still a little confused, as if he didn't know what was going on.
No wonder Hu Hai is like this, he always has Zhao Gao's back when doing things, and he won't worry about even big things.
Therefore, he didn't think it would happen if he was taken here this time.
He stood there, straightened his clothes, bowed respectfully to Ying Zheng, and said, "My son, I will see you, my father."
Just when he looked at Feng Xiao and Li Si beside him, a trace of hesitation flashed in Hu Hai's confused eyes.
Seeing him like this, Ying Zheng was even more furious. He looked at Hu Hai with sharp eyes and said coldly: "You traitor! Do you know your guilt?"
"Father..." Hu Hai was still a little hesitant. Zhao Gao was dealing with it, and his father's attitude towards him had always been good. This time, he was suddenly reprimanded like this, and he still couldn't accept it.
He raised his head and glanced at Zhao Gao, but saw nothing.
He knelt on the ground reluctantly, with a somewhat aggrieved expression on his face.
"Father, I wonder what I have done wrong? My father wants to treat my son like this."
