At first, Chen Xinjia thought it was his impeachment of Duke Xingguo, but it turned out to be the issue of responsibility for Songjin's defeat, which surprised him unexpectedly.

But who would have thought that Duke Xingguo asked him about his secret request for peace from Jianlu, and he was even more shocked: How could Duke Xingguo know about this?

Chen Xinjia's psychological defense was continuously broken, and suddenly he heard questions that he had never dreamed of.

For a moment, he was stunned, repeating the sensational word he heard in his heart: Tonglu? Have you become a prisoner yourself?

He was a little confused, but when he saw Duke Xingguo's solemn look, he suddenly came back to his senses: Those Shanxi merchants were doing business with Jianlu, and they had been selling things banned by the imperial court. Aren't they Tonglu?

As soon as he thought of this, Chen Xinjia's forehead suddenly broke out in sweat.

As an important official of the imperial court, he certainly knew that interfering with prisoners was not only a serious crime, but would also leave a mark in the history books and make him forget his ancestors!

Seeing him like this, Zhang Mingwei understood. This Chen Xinjia probably didn't realize the seriousness of the matter before. In other words, he was blinded by money and subconsciously did not want to think deeply, wishfully thinking that Shanxi merchants were just like ordinary merchants doing business.

Now, being drunk by him should have given him a blow in the head, and removed the layer of cloth that he had covered his eyes with, whether intentionally or unintentionally. The consequences of this incident scared him after all.

Thinking of this, Zhang Mingwei continued to shout coldly: "As an official of the imperial court and a high official in the border area, the emperor trusted you so much before, but you actually did such a shocking thing, causing the entire Liaodong to fall and millions of soldiers and civilians of the Ming Dynasty to die. . The same is true, the Ming Dynasty and the country are in danger. Being a traitor like you is tantamount to treason. When I report it to the emperor, the emperor will be furious, and you just wait to punish the nine tribes! "

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Xinjia fell to the ground with a "plop". His whole body was as if he had been fished out of the water, covered in sweat.

However, he quickly came to his senses and crawled forward a few steps on the ground. He held his head high, looked at Zhang Mingwei, and begged: "My lord, please do a good job and save this villain. I will give you this villain in the next life." Be a cow or a horse, no, no, no, I will be a cow or a horse for you for the rest of my life, okay? The villain really died unjustly, the villain really didn’t know that the matter would be so serious..."

Zhang Mingwei just looked at him coldly and said nothing.

When Chen Xinjia had almost said it, he said coldly: "Now you know you regret it? When you first collected their money, why didn't you think you would be here today?"

When he heard this, Chen Xinjia knelt there, straightened his upper body, and slapped himself hard, with a loud "slap" sound. After just a few slaps, the corners of his mouth began to bleed.

Then, he continued to cry and beg Zhang Mingwei: "Master Guo, this villain really doesn't know that the matter is so serious! Otherwise, no matter how much he loves money, he will never dare to accept their money. Duke Guo, please save me." Save the villain, he is willing to be a cow or a horse in the next life..."

Zhang Mingwei was not in a hurry. He waited for him to beg for mercy for a while and then said slowly: "I heard from the government that you gave me fifty thousand taels of silver?"

Chen Xinjia was stunned for a moment after hearing this, but then he immediately came back to his senses and nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, yes, that's a little bit of filial piety from the villain, just to express the villain's feelings for the Duke!"

"Okay, for the sake of this fifty thousand taels..." After Zhang Mingwei said this, seeing the light of hope on Chen Xinjia's face, he said slowly, "Tell me everything you know, and don't lie at all." , let me see how I can change your crime!"

Zhang Mingwei had just opened his mouth and accused him of treason and wanted to kill the nine clans. With his power and what Chen Xinjia has done, let alone Zhang Mingwei, he has this ability.

If the crime can be changed, at least it will not be to kill the Nine Clan, that is of course what Chen Xinjia wants. Therefore, he quickly replied: "Yes, yes, the villain will definitely, there will be no lies at all."

After answering, he began to recall the words.

Seeing this, Zhang Mingwei turned his head and looked at the clerk next to him. Seeing that he was recording, he felt relieved. This was considered a fraud.

Who knows, for people in the court, observing words and emotions is a basic skill.

This small change in Zhang Mingwei was keenly felt by Chen Xinjia, who was nervous and jumped to the extreme.

Suddenly, he couldn't help but have doubts in his heart, and a thought came to his mind, could it be that the Duke didn't know these things?

However, Chen Xinjia thought about it again and felt something was wrong.

What those Shanxi merchants did was well hidden, otherwise they would have been discovered long ago. If Duke Xingguo didn't really know, it would be absolutely impossible for him to tell this!

Thinking like this, he had another question. Huang Yunfa should know that if he confessed to everything, what would happen to him? Did he confess after being tortured?

While he was thinking about it, Zhang Mingwei realized that something was wrong, so he snorted again: "Huh?"

His snort immediately frightened Chen Xinjia and made him tremble.

Looking up, he saw Duke Xingguo's face darkening. Chen Xinjia knew what would happen if he made Duke Xingguo unhappy, so he no longer dared to think about it and continued to confess.

………………

After about an hour, Chen Xinjia finally finished speaking, and then he felt a severe pain at the corner of his mouth. He stretched out his hand to wipe the blood, which affected the injury again.

But he couldn't care about these, and quickly said to Zhang Mingwei: "Master Guo, I have recruited all the villains, and they are all true."

Zhang Mingwei has been listening to what he confessed, including the time, place, people involved, etc., and he knew that the things Chen Xinjia confessed should be true.

So, he nodded and said: "When this case is announced to the world and is retried by the Three Justices Division, are you willing to testify one more time and identify those Shanxi merchants and their collaborators?"

Chen Xinjia had no choice at this time and immediately nodded in agreement: "As long as the prince lets the villain do it, no matter what!"

I took this opportunity to show my kindness again, but whether it was of any use is another matter.

So, just like that, Chen Xinjia was taken back.

In the imperial prison, Chen Xinjia had a relatively high level, so he was naturally locked up inside. When passing by the cell outside, he suddenly heard someone rushing towards him, and then said hurriedly: "Master Chen, could you please help me? I am innocent!"

When he heard this, he turned around and was stunned.

If Huang Yunfa really had to confess, would he say such things?

The answer is no doubt!

Immediately, Chen Xinjia felt as if he was struck by a thunderbolt on the head. He was completely stunned!

It turned out that Duke Xingguo was really deceiving him!

However, everything was confessed and there was no room for redemption. Unless Duke Xingguo deceived him at the beginning, he would have directly denied such a thing. But……

It's too late, Chen Xinjia hates this!

Thinking like this, he looked at Huang Yunfa in the cell, and suddenly became very angry: It's all you, so desperate, why are you in my house? Being caught together gave Duke Xingguo a chance to cheat!

Just as he was thinking about it, the imperial guard who was escorting him behind became impatient, pushed him, and shouted: "Let's go!"

Chen Xinjia stabilized his body, and the extremely unwillingness in his heart turned into resentment. He immediately said "poof" and spit out a mouthful of bloody phlegm at Huang Yunfa, and then walked away with hatred.

Huang Yunfa didn't expect that he would spit at all, so when he was spit on, he was immediately stunned.

After a while, he wiped the phlegm off his face. He looked at it before wiping it off.

To be honest, he felt Chen Xinjia's deep resentment. However, he couldn't understand why Chen Xinjia had so much resentment?

While Huang Yunfa was thinking, the captain of the Jinyi Guards came over and escorted him out.

So, he had no choice but to suppress the doubts in his heart and think about how to better complain.

When he arrived at the lobby, Huang Yunfa discovered that the person sitting in the main seat was actually wearing a python suit. Needless to say, even though I have never seen him, this must be Duke Xingguo, the commander of the Jin Yiwei.

To be honest, he really didn't expect it to be Duke Xingguo.

Suddenly, he thought that Duke Xingguo knew his identity and thought that he might use him in terms of money and food in the future. In other words, he should be able to go out.

Thinking this way, Huang Yunfa felt happy and temporarily forgot about the unhappiness Chen Xinjia had brought to him. He quickly knelt down and presented a gift to Duke Xing Guo: "The common man is Huang Yunfa, the owner of Huangji Money Shop. He happened to be mistakenly arrested and imprisoned while discussing business. The Duke is the blue sky of our Ming Dynasty. Everyone in the capital praises me. Please give me a lesson!"

"Haha, since I am Qingtian, I will not wrongly accuse anyone, so how can I arrest the wrong person?" Zhang Mingwei sneered after hearing this, and then gestured to the side.

When the clerk saw it, he walked over with Chen Xinjia's confession and showed it in front of Huang Yunfa.

Huang Yunfa was heartbroken by Zhang Mingwei's words. He didn't know what it was, so he quickly looked at it intently.

After just one glance, his eyes suddenly widened and his face became frightened. After a while, just like Chen Xinjia at that time, he fell to the ground.

At this time, he finally figured out why Chen Xinjia hated him so much. It turned out that he had confessed to this!

"If you don't want others to be ignorant, you have to do nothing!" Zhang Mingwei saw it and said coldly, "I will give you a chance now to confess everything about the other seven people in detail. I will make suggestions to the emperor to alleviate your pain. Sin. But if I find out that you have deceived me, I guarantee you will regret it!"

Having said this, he stood up and left.

Chen Xinjia has already opened a breakthrough regarding the affairs of Shanxi merchants and captives. The rest is actually nothing that needs special attention.

If he doesn't recruit this Huang Yunfa, it will only increase the trouble of investigating the eight major imperial merchants, that's all!
