"I think you won't believe it even if I show you the two confessions now." Zhan Changfeng took out a jade seal with a wisteria flower and a letter. "This is a token of contact between Yue Kun and Zou Tingwei. Among them, The clues about Li Mao, Gongsunshi and Zou Tingwei are very obvious, if you still have doubts, you can directly interrogate Yue Kun."
"I just want to remind you that that man only killed Zou Tingwei but not Yue Kun. It can be seen that only Zou Tingwei knew who he was. It doesn't matter much if he is alone. The soldiers came to cover up the water and the earth. I don't know if the Si Xun Mansion can tolerate such a situation inside. General character."
"By the way," Zhan Changfeng seemed to have thought of something and smiled half-heartedly, "The Jingyu Guards around Li Hao are said to number a thousand. They have never appeared in China before. They must have come from Zangyun Stream. It seems The Si Xun Mansion is no different, allowing so many monks to openly cause chaos."
"It's absolutely impossible. Everyone who comes to Zangyunjian will log in their name and surname, and put it in the file, and their whereabouts will be recorded." Yuzhen suddenly said, his expression really bad.
If there are really so many monks coming from Zangyun Stream, but they are not in the records, it can only mean that there is a powerful person in the Si Xun Mansion who is covering up for them.
The deacons looked at each other for a few times and couldn't help but turn their attention to Lin Zhao. He has always been in charge of registering and tracing the monks' traces.
Lin Zhao was not afraid at all and glared back one by one, "You still don't know what kind of person he is! The Jingyu Guard next to Li Hao is definitely not from Zangyunjian, you can go and find out!"
He turned to question Zhan Changfeng, "The prince's words are somewhat inconsistent. He previously said that there were accomplices Zou Tingwei confessed to on the second pleading, but now he still refuses to reveal his name. I'm afraid it's a lie, right?"
"If you don't believe it, it's useless for me to say it. However, I can reveal something," Zhan Changfeng stared into Lin Zhao's eyes, "The superficial relationship between him and Zou Tingwei is not good..."
Lin Zhao's pupils shrank.
Zhan Changfeng continued, "We even often ridicule each other."
The deacons’ eyes changed.
"After Zou Tingwei was arrested, his first reaction was to blame Zou on the wrong side. After Zou's death, he started to fight against Si Xunfu and Gu."
Lin Zhao's fingers trembled and he quickly grasped the knife.
When the deacons recalled Lin Zhao's words and deeds, they found that they were completely consistent with what Zhan Changfeng said!
But Zhan Changfeng suddenly picked it up and put it down gently, and said with a smile, "Of course, the last sentence is Gu's guess. Please investigate the details. There are still thirteen days before the army arrives in Huangzhou. Gu thinks, Si Xunfu must It will be investigated within this deadline, right?"
A "Yes" made everyone more stressed. Yuzhen suddenly realized that sovereignty was never in their hands. Her ability to control the field was too strong and she could not reverse it.
Yuzhen could only say, "I'm disturbing the prince. I will investigate the matter as soon as possible."
"Farewell." Yuzhen winked at the deacons and hugged Lin Zhao intentionally or unintentionally.
Lin Zhao remained calm and left with everyone as if nothing happened.
Ling Er, who was in the background with Xuanwu Wei, became more convinced of His Highness and became more humble. As the presiding judge that day, he clearly knew that there was no confession at all.
Zou Tingwei just verbally shouted that he was bribed by the Gongsun family. Before he could say the following words, he was interrupted by the chaos created by He Yuntian, and was subsequently assassinated and died.
"This subordinate is stupid, how did His Highness know that there is something wrong with this person?"
"Dead people can talk, let alone living people. It's just that the more actions a living person takes, the truer the words." From a person's body, facial details, eyes, and language, we can judge his intentions and deduce his past or upcoming actions. It is the most basic imperial technique.
The purpose of making false confessions, examining corpses, or raising questions about Jing Yuwei was just to create a series of events so that she could observe the reactions of these people and find that person.
Once the person is identified and his personality is simulated, it is not difficult to deduce his reaction in this matter.
She can't take care of Lin Zhao's affairs now, and the Si Xun Mansion will take care of it. The matter in Huangzhou is imminent.
Ling Er and Fang Heng have taken control of the power in Huangzhou and are in the process of dealing with the aftermath.
Next comes the redistribution of power.
According to Zhan Changfeng's expectation, Huangzhou will become the martial arts center of China. When the military force becomes stronger and stronger, it may be difficult for the original bureaucracy to maintain governance. Moreover, the original bureaucracy has bloated personnel and low efficiency. She is not convinced. I want to use.
Nowadays, other areas have been affected by the war to some extent, but Huangzhou is stable. Moreover, the ordinary people in Huangzhou are accustomed to wearing Taoist robes or people dressed in Jianghu. Even some literati, poets, country gentlemen and wealthy people regard wearing Taoist robes as a beauty, and some people who like martial arts will learn martial arts. They repair and hang swords, drink wine and eat meat, and are more receptive to new things than people in other places.
Maybe try it on a new political system. A political system that is more enlightened, free, and able to withstand strong force.
But Zhan Changfeng also knows that forcibly ordering changes to the official system, polygamy, master-servant contracts and other deep-rooted traditions that have existed for thousands of years are tantamount to confronting this era, not to mention those old-school literati who talk about their ancestral rules. , even farmers in the fields find it difficult to accept it.
Even she herself couldn't estimate the cost.
It can only be done imperceptibly.
"Retain the post of governor, specializing in administration; change the Dudu Mansion into Junwu Mansion, in charge of the military; and set up a separate prison temple to handle justice. As for personnel, Fang Heng will be the governor first. You will be the governor of the palace, and the prison temple will be formed separately. ."
Zhan Changfeng thought about it and said, "After a while, I will give you a detailed plan, which will clarify the responsibilities and obligations of each official position. In addition, under the Military and Military Mansion, a military academy will be established to specially train martial arts disciples and Talent in the art of war.”
The royal family has collected a lot of martial arts and military books, so there is no need to worry about being unable to support a military academy, and Ling Er is a secret guard who specializes in handling intelligence, so it is perfect for him to do it.
"Also, throw He Yuntian to the Si Xunfu. By the way, he helped Yue Kun fight in the ring and robbed prisoners."
"yes."
So He Yuntian finally woke up and found himself in the dungeon with forbidden spirit shackles on his hands.
"Let me go quickly, I am He Yuntian of Junziyuan!" He shouted outside while holding on to the iron bars.
Yuzhen was so upset. He had obviously paid more attention to Lin Zhao, but he still let him escape halfway. Although there were still some doubts that had not been clarified, his hookup with the Gongsun family was basically confirmed.
The two deacons secretly violated discipline and law, and were eventually exposed by outsiders. This was a stain on the Si Xun Mansion.
So I could usually turn a blind eye for the sake of Junziyuan, but now I am not so tolerant towards He Yuntian who was blindly meddling in Yue Kun's rebellion.
"Go and investigate the role of He Yuntian and the He family in this matter. If he was involved without knowing it, call the Junziyuan to pick him up. If he knowingly committed the crime, he will be punished in accordance with the law." Yuzhen threw up his sleeves and walked out of the dungeon while making arrangements. People were chasing Lin Zhao while sending monks to the imperial capital to investigate the Jingyu Guards.
After everything was done, he breathed a sigh of relief and went to Jun Wenjiu to report the situation. Jun Wenjiu had no objection to his arrangement, "Just do what you want."
Yuzhen hesitated for a moment, "Master, I have a doubt about something. You are well-informed, can you give me some advice?"
Jun Wenjiu is still young, but she has profound knowledge and is worthy of the word "guidance." "You tell me."
"Today, I went to look for the prince's longevity. I wanted to give her a showdown, so I ran straight into the mountain behind the military camp, but I happened to see her dancing with a sword." Yu Zhen said, "I was lucky enough to go to the upper world to observe the Taoist meeting. I was deeply impressed by the swordsmanship of Jiuji Guiyi Sect, and when I saw her swordsmanship, it was quite similar to that of Guiyi Sword Sect."
"Oh?" Jun Wenjiu became interested and opened his lazily squinted eyes, "So are you questioning her origin? This matter is easy to handle. Yan Weishan, who belongs to the same sect, has been practicing in the mortal world. Now, The Tongtian Road is approaching, if he wants to go back, he should be in Xiaohan Town by now, just ask him."
A wisp of alcoholic smell popped out of Jun Wenjiu and suddenly penetrated into the air.
Yan is a mountain?
Yuzhen was excited and asked, "Is it Yan Weishan who is on the rookie list?"
