This strategy
Really cruel
It seems ordinary, but there are several murderous intentions hidden inside.
The final point is also the most hated murder and heart-breaking
What Wei Zheng wants is to cause civil strife among these guys. Only if they themselves are in chaos can the matter be easily solved. Wei Zheng is not stupid. In order to prevent the other party from colluding, Cheng Yaojin needs to go to the camp to find those who are guarding the cabin with ideas. Only soldiers can do it. After the confrontation between the two sides, the matter will be settled 99% of the time with testimonials and evidence from individual warehouses.
Cheng Yaojin took people to the camp according to Wei Zheng's idea. Wei Zheng ordered Zhang Fei to bring out pens, inks, paper, inkstones and other items from the treasury, and then separated the civil and military officials in each warehouse, under the guard of several soldiers. Let them write their own statements.
Those people actually refused in their hearts at first. After all, who is willing to confess their sins?
People who sit down to do these things at least know how to protect themselves wisely.
Some of them thought about what they would do if their cooperating accomplices sold themselves out first.
If they fail to serve as tainted witnesses, their fate may be countless times more miserable than this, and the death penalty is a minor one.
Think about it
Some people couldn't bear the pressure, and selectively forgot about the things they had agreed with their accomplices not to let go, so they picked up a pen and started writing.
Since the two parties do not meet each other, they all rely on trust to support each other. In other words, it depends on who is generous and who is evil, who has a higher reputation and who is more thoughtful.
Wei Zheng, who has seen all kinds of life, is sure. He knows very well whether these guys are all on the same page, and the answer is no. As long as he finds a breakthrough, the next work can begin.
Not so for the puppets. Not long after Wei Zheng took a tea break there, Zhang Fei came to him with a certain warehouse manager and a confession written in his hand.
Looking at the other person's weather-beaten face, he is already in his 30s and will soon be in his forties. He must have children and a daughter, and he has too many things in mind.
Zhang Fei: "Sir, this is General Cangcao's confession."
Reaching out to take the document Zhang Fei handed him, Wei Zheng took a closer look. Sure enough, he had stolen the grain from the warehouse and sold it to a vendor. The vendor was his colleague Hao Wen. There was not much content, and there were some specific quantities and outputs. When it was time to deliver the goods, Wei Zheng placed the confession on the table. Wei Zheng looked at Cang Cao and asked in a low voice: "Are you telling the truth?"
Shogakusao: "Everything I said is true."
Wei Zheng: "Why do you sit down like this?"
Shogun Cao: "There are seniors and juniors in my family. They are afraid of death and dare not go to the battlefield, but they cannot resist the temptation of money, so they do this."
Wei Zheng: "Then why did you confess directly today?"
Jiang Cangcao: "I know that the laws of the Tang Dynasty are strict, and I already regret my mistakes. I take this opportunity to escape from the sea of suffering. I also hope that the adults can see that I am willing to plead guilty and accuse the sinner's clone, so that I can die on the border of old age." Returned to hometown before”
Wei Zheng: "You also know that exile is the lightest option."
Shougang Cao: "Yes, the laws of the Tang Dynasty are popularized here. I remember it when I was little. Every day I am trembling with surprises. Now that I see the imperial envoy coming this time, I feel it is an opportunity. I hope I can give it a try."
There was a look of satisfaction on Wei Zheng's face and he said to the other party: "Seeing that you are quite honest and most of what you tell is the truth, I will give you a chance to tell everyone you know about the storage and storage of stolen property." Tell everything, even if you have heard it, you must tell it."
"No, I will say this right now..."
As Shoso, surnamed Shogun, began to describe a large-scale theft and sale of warehouse supplies, stealing and selling goods, cheating the superiors and concealing the truth, and even said that a large-scale gang colluded with both inside and outside Yamashita was exposed.
When Wei Zheng heard the number of people and their names and official positions, his mind was filled with confusion. There was still such a big rat hidden in the entire Luoyang territory, including the Holy Emperor Ming Zun of the Tang Dynasty and the cleaned areas. Didn't His Majesty know?
After thinking about it carefully, Wei Zheng felt something was wrong, and then asked General Cancao: "Have some of these things been brought to Chang'an City? Where are you selling them under the Emperor's feet?"
Jiangcang Cao whispered to Wei Zheng: "It seems to be a black market sale. It is said that it is the largest black market in Chang'an City and the largest black market in the Tang Dynasty. The boss behind it has an amazing identity, so selling there, although you can make money, I heard that it is not The safest and most worry-free”
Wei Zheng: "What else do you know?"
Shokura Cao: "You only know so much when you are young."
Rubbing his chin, Wei Zheng rubbed it vigorously. Members of the Tang Dynasty cabinet knew that Murong Xue existed in the black market in Chang'an City. Behind Murong Xue was the Emperor Mingzun of the Tang Dynasty, Li Mingda. In this way, Luocang's Li Mingda knew about the matter. Was it because of the Holy Emperor Mingzun that he and Cheng Yaojin came together?
I'm sure it's not about dividing the spoils...
No, the Tang Dynasty belongs to the Holy Emperor Ming Zun. Is there anything else that can't be separated? Maybe the evidence is almost collected and we are ready to close the Internet cafe, but why not let the Jin Yiwei come directly, but let Cheng Yaojin and himself Coming?
Could it be that it's just because you and Cheng Yaojin used to be from Wagang Village and are familiar with the place?
I always feel like there's something I didn't expect.
"Zhang Fei, take him to a room and keep him under safe supervision, and wait for the people below to continue to confess their crimes."
Zhang Fei: "No"
Zhang Fei went away with the prisoner, and not long after, he brought another person over and interrogated him carefully. His words were similar to those of the general named just now. The only difference was his age. He was a young man.
People came one after another, and their confessions were more or less related. Wei Zheng picked up the banknotes and wrote down some familiar names and things.
As time went by, more and more people came to Wei Zheng in the hope of being lenient, and they began to identify some people. Some of them had statements that were inconsistent with the previous ones, such as the person behind the theft. Different, the quantity and specifications of the goods are also different.
The astute Wei Zheng knew that this was them shuffling the audio and video, and there should be more to come. If he wanted to find the real clues from these people's reports, he would need to carefully consider it, and he would also need Cheng Yaojin's cooperation. OK.
Old Cheng, Old Cheng, you are indeed an old hooligan and have done a lot of bad things on weekdays, but now is the critical moment. I hope you will not be stupid, and I hope my old Wei did not misjudge you.
As early as when Cheng Yaojin gave up his position as king and emperor, Wei Zheng felt that Cheng Yaojin was a strange person with his own ideas in his heart. Later, his many experiences with Cheng Yaojin also proved that he had no Wrong.
"Old Wei, Old Wei, look what I, Old Cheng, have brought for you..."
