Peerless Pirates

Early the next morning, Song Zheng had just finished breakfast when Shui Ding suddenly arrived in the city to open the latest chapter.

"Eunuch Shui, why are you here so early?" Song Zheng was quite surprised. According to yesterday's agreement, Song Zheng would wait for Shui Ding at Yousi Yamen, and then go to the manor together to continue meeting Jiang Huan.

Shuiding lay next to Song Zheng's ear and whispered, "Last night, Prime Minister Huang went to the Queen Mother's Palace. Early this morning, the Queen Mother sent a message saying that she wanted to see the Holy One. The Holy One guessed that it might be related to Jiang Huan's incident, so he ordered me to come.

. Let’s rush to Chengxi Manor and get all the confessions as soon as possible. The Holy Emperor will go to the Queen Mother’s Palace as late as possible to buy us time. However, there is not much time, only an hour.”

Song Zheng was taken aback, and took Ding Long, Cai Yong and others out of the city immediately to the west. Late yesterday, Ding Long and eight of Mu Yu's confidants had all returned. And the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion were even more...

They returned one day earlier. As for the Imperial Guards led by Han Kui, they had also returned to Jiangning earlier.

Song Zheng had many ideas about how Huang Song and others would deal with it. The most likely possibility was that he would send people pretending to be thieves to attack the manor secretly, so he made full preparations. Gu Zhengjie and Shi Cunbao had already laid traps in the manor, and Jiang Huan

The detention center was the center and was heavily fortified. If Huang Song did not dispatch hundreds of assassins, it would be difficult to escape from the manor.

This is why Song Zheng felt relieved to let Shao Zhijie's people participate in guarding Cai Huan. Of course, Song Zheng also hoped that Shao Zhijie's people would cause civil strife and plot to assassinate Jiang Huan. In that case, Song Zheng would have reason to involve Shao Zhijie, and thus

Cut off Lu Junqing's right-hand man.

Apart from this shameful method, Huang Song could only ask Huang Yuandu to make a request to the young emperor. In that case, the young emperor could make a request and then appoint Shui Ding to join Yousi as deputy capital commander.

By then, the combined efforts of Song Zheng, Shuiding and Mu Yu will be able to operate on Yousi.

However, against all odds, Huang Yuandu never expected that Huang Yuandu would ask Huang Jiao to take action. In order to convince Huang Jiao, Huang Yuandu had to reveal the truth of the year. In that case, Huang Jiao would let the little emperor let go of the matter no matter what, and even tell the truth to Huang Yuandu.

Relaying it to the little emperor made the matter extremely complicated.

Thanks to the little emperor for keeping an eye on it and buying himself an hour.

When Song Zheng and others rushed to the manor, Gu Zhengjie came up to them and reported in a low voice that nothing unusual happened last night. Song Zheng secretly thought that since Huang Yuandu had moved out of Huang Jiao, he would definitely not send anyone to assassinate him.

After asking Gu Zhengjie to arrange for everyone to rest, Song Zheng and Shuiding immediately interrogated Jiang Huan.

When Ding Long escorted Jiang Huan in, Jiang Huan was still sleeping. Perhaps because he had a good talk with Song Zheng and others yesterday, Jiang Huan's complexion recovered well and did not look sluggish.

However, when he entered the hall, he saw that there were only two people, Song Zheng and Shui Ding. As if he realized something, he immediately woke up and kept glancing out of the door.

Song Zheng said coldly, "Don't look at it, Deputy Shao will never come. He said everything he should have said!"

"This... humble duty was all explained yesterday!"

Song Zheng knew that he didn't have much time, so he said sternly, "No need to be careless anymore, let's talk about what is going on with Guan Chisong, the magistrate of Wuzhou, Yan Moze, the general judge of Hangzhou, and Magongdu!"

Jiang Huan was taken aback, and even said to himself, "I don't know what Lord Jianzheng said."

Song Zheng stood up with a roar, stared at Jiang Huan, and pushed forward step by step. Jiang Huan groaned, turned around and ran away. He had seen Song Zheng's skills before, and he was definitely no match for him.

However, before he could reach the door, Ding Long and Cai Yong raised their knives and chopped off the head of his pocket. Jiang Huan was so frightened that he quickly backed away. Suddenly, his leg sockets softened and he fell to his knees. Then, his

A dagger appeared on his neck, which was Song Zheng's fish intestine sword.

"Brother Shui, you are responsible for recording the confession today and write down everything this guy said." Song Zheng said sharply.

Shui Ding knew that the following words might involve secrets, so he waved the secretary who was originally responsible for recording to go out. Song Zheng ordered Ding Long to close the door from the outside, and the room immediately became much darker. At the moment, only Song Zheng, Shui Ding and

Jiang Huan and three others.

Song Zheng grabbed Jiang Huan's neck with one hand, put the sword tip against his jaw with the other, and said viciously, "If you say the following words wrong again, I will tear you apart immediately!"

The tip of the sword had penetrated a little into the flesh, and a drop of blood oozed out, flowing down the blade. Jiang Huan did not move at all.

"Tell me, what happened to Guan Chisong, the magistrate of Wuzhou?"

"Guan Chisong gave me three thousand taels of silver and asked me to negotiate for him. He wanted to come to Hangzhou to be appointed magistrate, but I couldn't do it. So he asked me for some silver, and I had his son's legs broken."

"Where's the silver?"

"I...I stayed."

Song Zheng quickly swung the fish intestine sword in his hand, then quickly retracted it and pressed it against Jiang Huan's neck. His movements were extremely fast. Jiang Huan just felt his fingers go cold, and then he felt a sharp pain. But he moved continuously

He didn't dare to move, his face kept twitching.

"Where's the money?" Song Zheng asked again coldly.

"I gave Uncle Er Guo two thousand five hundred taels, and I kept five hundred taels for myself."

"Where is Yan Moze, the general magistrate of Hangzhou?"

"Yan Moze's family has a silk and satin shop. I bought it and gave him a hundred taels of silver."

"Where's MacGongdu?"

"Two years ago, Black Eagle over at Qingxi reported that his daughter was pretty, so I led someone to snatch her away. Later, his daughter was too strong and kicked me in the lower body. Then Mai Gongdu also

He wanted to sue, which pissed me off. After I finished playing with the girl, I sent him back."

…

Under Song Zheng's coercion, Jiang Huan told all the evil deeds. Many of them were unknown to Mu Yu, so he also told them.

Shui Ding wiped his sweat while recording. This Jiang Huan can be described as full of evil. This guy has a habit of picking up young ladies from wealthy officials and causing trouble. I think this guy was poor when he was young and full of fantasies about rich ladies. Now he is rich.

, you can waste it with all your strength. Of course, this guy also has a plan, and he specializes in picking up masters who don't have a strong backing.

Not only that, this guy's greatest skill is collecting money. In just a few years, he gave Huang Song as much as 80,000 taels, and Lu Junqing also got 20,000 taels. He is a guy who is quite good at flattering.

.

There was not much time, and Song Zheng didn't wait for him to finish telling all his crimes, so he asked sternly, "You have done such evil, why is Huang Song still protecting you? Aren't you afraid of others' revenge?" Then, Song Zheng said extremely.

A low voice said two words in Jiang Huan's ear, "King Lu".

Jiang Huan, who had been frightened for a long time, his eyes widened in disbelief. This was his deepest secret, and he never thought that Song Zheng would know about it.

"Hurry up and say it!" Song Zheng said with wide eyes.

Jiang Huan was heartbroken, "My grandfather was one of King Lu's personal guards, and he once participated in burying King Lu's secret treasure..." He told the story intermittently.

"What else did you do in Songjiazhuang?"

"Following Lu Junqing's order, several people were poisoned to death. Including...including Ling Zu."

"My grandfather?" Song Zheng pretended to be surprised, "Didn't someone from the Qian family poison him to death?"

"No, it was Lu Junqing who did it. He first arrived at Songjiazhuang pretending to be a Taoist priest. I don't know how he did it. Anyway, he finally found the scapegoat. Mr. Song, I... I was just following orders at the time. The person who poisoned the house was actually someone from the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Brother Jiao, it has nothing to do with me." At this moment, Jiang Huan had no choice but to beg for mercy.

Song Zheng said coldly, "Why do you want to poison and kill people?"

"I...I don't know. I'm just the commander of Huzhou, so why would I ask so many questions? It's all done by Lu Junqing and Huang Song."

Song Zheng glanced at Shui Ding and saw Shui Ding standing there blankly. He really didn't expect that he would dig out so much information today. Especially the last item, the death of Song Zheng's grandfather was actually caused by Huang Songhe

Lu Junqing did it.

"Brother Shui, bring over the confession and let him sign it!" Song Zheng's voice was bone-chilling. Shui Ding hurriedly took the confession. Song Zheng swung his sword and drew a line on Jiang Huan's right arm, "Dip your own

Blood, mark!"

Jiang Huan grinned and put his bloody fingerprints on each piece of paper.

"Brother Shui, pull out the confession involving King Lu's secret collection and give it to me."

Shui Ding hesitated a little, but Song Zheng said, "This matter can only be seen by the Holy Spirit, and cannot fall into the hands of the Huang family."

Shuiding suddenly realized that now was not the time for a decisive battle with the Huang family. If the confession got into the hands of the Huang family, they would force the Huang family to do their best to eliminate Song Zheng.

Song Zheng held the last two confessions in his arms and asked Shui Ding to put away the rest.

At this moment, Shao Zhijie's voice sounded outside the door, "I have been ordered by the Holy One to interrogate Jiang Huan in person. Why don't you get out of the way quickly?"

Ding Long said loudly, "Master Song is also interrogating under the orders of the Holy Emperor. No one can enter!"

Then, there was the sound of a weapon being unsheathed.

Song Zheng signaled to Shuiding to open the door. He himself bent down and said to Jiang Huan, who was collapsed into a ball of mud, "If you admit even half a word to Lu Junqing about the Song Family Village, I will exterminate your clan. Yours

The two sons Jiang Long and Jiang Kun, the three daughters Yan, Ying, and Oriole, and the six ladies will all die, and I guarantee that they will die extremely miserably, so you have to consider it carefully."

Jiang Huan straightened up suddenly and glared at Song Zheng. Seeing Song Zheng's eyes like daggers and cold stars rising from his eyes, Jiang Huan couldn't help but tremble and collapsed on the ground again.

At this moment, the door opened with a bang, and Lu Junqing, Wang Chui, Shao Zhijie, and Mu Yu all rushed in. It turned out that Lu Junqing had actually returned to Jiangning, and Song Zheng had not received the news.

Song Zheng took a deep breath, cupped his hands towards Lu Junqing and said, "Brother Lu, when did you come back? Why didn't you say hello to my little brother?"

"Such a big thing happened in Yousi, so I naturally came back to take a look. As soon as I arrived at Yousi Yamen today, the Holy Father passed down a decree. It said that Jiang Huan's case happened before Dark Eagle returned to prison, so I took over it.

.”

"Oh, I see, that's great!" Song Zheng said with a smile, "Of course I can take him away, but there are a few words I want to talk to him alone."

"No need." Lu Junqing waved his hand, "They are all my brothers. There is nothing to say."

Shao Zhijie, Wang Chui and Mu Yu all stood up straight.

Song Zheng kicked Jiang Huan and said to Lu Junqing with a half-smile, "Brother Lu, are you sure?"
