Tomin in The Alien World - V3.Chapter 143
“The assassin’s frontal bone is broken and can’t speak. He wrote it himself.” Cheng Jin said carefully. When it comes to Si Liying, it’s very important. Not only the Sichuan ministers can’t get away with it, but I’m afraid even Mrs. Zhaoyang will have to be involved.
If the matter is investigated deeply, I don’t know how many people are involved. Cheng Jin knows this, Lei Zhen and Ai Wei know it, and Tang Yin knows it himself.
Tang Yin slowly narrowed her eyes and didn’t speak for a long time. He didn’t know what he should ask next. Did he ask who was behind the scenes? Who can mobilize the Si Li camp except Xiao Xiang?
What if Cheng Xiangzhen does it for him? Kill her? Or depose her wife? These are simply impossible things, and the consequences are too serious.
He was silent for half a cup of tea. Fang said, “Assassin… Do you have anything else to explain?”
“Originally, my subordinates asked for more details, but as a result…”
Speaking of this, Cheng Jin stopped and shook his head with shame on his face. After a while, he whispered, “as a result, the assassin can’t stand torture and died… His subordinates are not doing well, so please bring the king down!”
Hearing this, Tang Yin was involuntarily relieved. He was really afraid that the assassin would explain everything.
Killing or deposing Xiao Xiang’s title will not lead to riots in the whole Sichuan area. Now Xiao Xiang is his wife. He can’t bear to ask him to do so.
Now that the assassin is dead, it’s easy to explain that he is the man of the Si Li camp. That is to say, he is an example or he is deliberately framed. In short, there is no proof of death. Whatever you say. Thinking of this, he raised his head and looked at Cheng Jin.
Cheng Jin looks like a child who has done something wrong. His head hangs down and he doesn’t dare to breathe. Lei Zhen and Ai Wei are also drooping their heads, but their faces are changing. Tang Yinduo was so smart that he turned around and immediately found something unusual.
People like Cheng Jin, Lei Zhen and Ai Wei are experts in torture, especially Cheng Jin and Ai Wei. They are in this line of work. How can they torture such important prisoners to death?
That’s what they are best at. On second thought, Tang Yin understood that Cheng Jin must be deliberately killing himself.
When the assassin confessed that he was born in the Si Li camp, Cheng Jin must be aware of the seriousness of the situation. If all of it is exposed, it is likely to become uncontrollable and it will be difficult for him to ride the tiger. Therefore, the captured assassin was not tortured to death, but directly executed by Cheng Jin.
Thinking of this, Tang Yin nodded secretly. Cheng Jin is worthy of being his confidant and lover. He knows what he wants and doesn’t want, rather than trying to handle cases and do things.
Tang Yin and Cheng Jin have a tacit understanding that they can reach the tacit level without any words. However, on the surface, Tang Yin still pretends to be angry and whispers discontentedly: “Why are you so careless? For such a felony, you’d rather postpone the trial than kill him!”
“Yes! Because my subordinates are too anxious, they are willing to receive punishment.” Cheng Jin bowed and said.
“Forget it, like that, it’s not a pity to die.” Tang Yin turned the conversation and asked slowly: “the assassin told him that he was from the Si Li camp. Is this… Whether it was deliberately planted and deliberately blamed the Sichuan people in order to cause the contradiction between the feng people and the Sichuan people?”
Cheng Jin thought carefully and nodded. “My subordinates think it’s very possible.”
“Then continue to check. Be sure to find out the person in charge behind the assassin and give Yuanji an explanation!”
“Subordinates understand.” Of course, Cheng Jin understands Tang Yin’s true intention. The king wants to find a lamb to replace the crime. The case can’t find out the real murderer, nor can it be settled. He can only catch some irrelevant people to take the blame.
Tang Yin took a deep look at Cheng Jin, then waved and said, “you all step back. By the way, the case will be handled by the hidden arrow alone. Duwei camp and Lieutenant’s house don’t have to intervene anymore.”
“Yes! King!” Lei Zhen and Ai Wei are also smart people. The assassination case is a big quagmire. If they can get away, they have to get out of the matter quickly. Otherwise, they will get dirty and get stuck in it.
Lei Zhen and Ai Wei both left, but Cheng Jin didn’t leave immediately. When the two of them had left the room, Cheng Jin took the first two steps and came to Tang Yin. He whispered, “king, the restaurant where Youxiang was assassinated was newly opened. The shopkeeper was from Sichuan. In addition, the assassin seemed to have known Youxiang would go there, so he made careful arrangements inside and outside the restaurant in advance.”
Tang Yin looked deep and said, “as far as I know, it was Zhang Xin who invited Yuanji to eat in that restaurant.”
“Exactly!” Cheng Jin said, “my subordinates have to report. Since Mrs. Zhaoyang was pregnant, Lord Zhang has been very close to her.”
Cheng Jin doesn’t need to make his words clear. Tang Yin already understands the meaning of his words. Assassinate Shangguan Yuanji. It must be difficult to do this by Sichuan people alone. Only feng people cooperate with them can they have the hope of success, and Zhang Xin is the most suitable candidate who has close contacts with Xiao Xiang.
Of course, Tang Yin can also understand Zhang Xin’s mind. The main reason why he will cling to Xiao Xiang is the child in Xiao Xiang’s stomach.
He nodded and said, “I see. Cheng Jin, you did a good job this time. Go!”
“Yes! My subordinates leave!” Cheng Jin saluted deeply again, then turned and walked out.
After Cheng Jin also left, Tang Yin couldn’t help rubbing his painful forehead. It was enough for him to deal with complicated government affairs every day. Now he still needed to coordinate the complex relationship between people. Tang Yin felt that he was really unable to do it.
He sat for a long time, took a deep breath, stood up and said to ah San and ah Si outside the door, “prepare the car, I’m going to Zhang’s house!”
Tang Yin went to Zhang Xin’s official residence. After the assassination in the restaurant, Zhang Xin was also injured, but the injury was mild. He didn’t participate in the early morning in recent days. He has been ill at home and kept closed his door.
When the king came to visit him in person, Zhang Xin couldn’t tell whether it was fear or surprise. Speaking of it, Tang Yin visited his residence for the first time.
Zhang Xin walked out of the house with the help of his servant. When he saw Tang Yin outside, he quickly knelt to the ground and said in a trembling voice, “see you, king!”
Tang Yin reached out to help Zhang Xin up and said, “Zhang Xin, you don’t have to be polite if you’re hurt.”
“King, please come inside!” Listening to Tang Yin’s tone of voice was no different. Zhang Xin’s hanging heart finally fell down.
Tang Yin was in front, Zhang Xin followed and walked into Zhang’s house. After coming in, he didn’t go to the lobby. He turned back and smiled at Zhang Xin: “it’s my first time to your house. Take me everywhere!”
Zhang Xin answered in a hurry, and then strolled around the house with Tang Yin. When Tang Yin came to the back garden of Zhang’s house, he stopped, looked at Zhang Xin and said, “you’re hurt now, so you shouldn’t walk too much. Let’s sit in the pavilion.”
“Yes! King!” Zhang Xin followed Tang Yin into the pavilion. Seeing Tang Yin waving to ah San, ah Si and others and sending them off, Zhang Xin immediately ordered the surrounding servants to retreat from the pavilion.
Soon, someone brought tea. Tang Yin picked up the teacup, drank tea slowly and said, “Zhang Xin, now many ministers in the court have advised me to seize the throne and be the son of heaven. What do you think of this?”
Zhang Xin’s mind turned sharply. He didn’t understand what the king meant by asking. He pondered for a moment and said carefully: “Weichen always follows the king’s lead. No matter what decision the king makes, Weichen supports the king…”
Tang Yin was happy, waved his hand and said, “don’t talk about these scenes in private. I just want to hear your real thoughts.”
“Oh…” Zhang Xin paused, then bowed his hands and said, “of course, I hope the king can go further and be a true supreme in the world. However, the right minister has always opposed the king’s seizure of the throne. The right minister is the first civil servant. The micro minister dare not make a mistake, and should respect the decision of the right minister.”
Tang Yin nodded, Meaningfully: “You’re right. In addition, Yuanji and you are wind people. I rely on you most. Now, the situation in the hall is complex and needs to be supported by a mainstay, and you are the pillar. Therefore, you should hold together tightly. Even if there are differences between you, you should focus on the overall situation and try to be courteous. For me , your palms and backs are full of meat. Killing each other is the last thing I want to see. ”
His words were from the bottom of his heart, and Zhang Xin was shocked and panicked.
The king has said that for this reason, it is obvious that the truth has been found out. Thinking of this, Zhang Xin could no longer sit still on the stone bench. He slipped and knelt down directly, kowtowed forward, and said in a trembling voice, “king, I’m confused for a moment, and I’m just confused…”
Before he finished, Tang Yin leaned over and grabbed his arm. Youyou said, “everyone will make mistakes, and I’m not afraid of you making mistakes. As long as you can sincerely repent, I’m afraid that some people will cling to their mistakes and make mistakes again and again. At that time, I can’t do anything even if I want to protect him.”
“King…” Zhang Xin’s body on his knees was shocked violently, and then he burst into tears. He kept crying and repeated: “I’m confused, I’m confused…”
Tang Yin stood up and pulled him up at the same time. With a puff of laughter, he said, “Zhang Xin, you are old too. It’s not proper to cry like this.”
As he spoke, he took out his handkerchief and handed it to Zhang Xin. With a smile, he said, “wipe it quickly and let people see it. I have to think I came to apologize in the name of visiting a doctor!”
How could Zhang Xin not feel the king’s favor to himself? Because of this, he felt more ashamed and shed more tears. He took Tang Yin’s handkerchief, but he didn’t dare to use it. He only used his cuffs to wipe the tears off his face.
