Chapter 267 Agreement
Chapter 267 Agree on Agreement
"Secretary Secretary Wei, Dali Temple Minister and Dai Shaoqing, now you can interrogate Rieko Morita. I think she will explain some questions. I will be alone with her after you finish the trial." Li Ke said calmly, "Also, please arrange it for me for me, I want to talk to Li Siqi."
"The official is responsible!" Dai Zhou suddenly woke up from Li Ke's words and replied hurriedly.
Li Ke ignored Rieko Morita who bowed his head and Wei Zheng and Sun Fujia, who were puzzled, and left the interrogation room with Dai Zhou. Dai Zhou arranged for Li Ke to interrogate Li Siqi in the second interrogation room in the dungeon of Dali Temple. In addition to Li Ke, there were also dead prisoners and a clerk. The room was dim and the air was a little wet. It took him a long time to adapt to the environment in front of him. Seeing that the Han King Li Ke was sitting opposite him, Li Siqi hurriedly greeted Li Ke.
"Defendant Li doesn't need to be polite, please sit down!" Li Ke said politely. As soon as he finished speaking, the prison guard placed Hu Teng in front of him.
Li Siqi couldn't control the attitude towards Li Ke. He hesitated for a moment, but when he saw Li Ke's smile on his face, he seemed to have no hostility towards him, so he sat down with confidence and thanked him repeatedly.
Li Siqi sat down, and Li Ke continued, "Is Deputy Envoy Li used to staying in the dungeon these days?"
Li Ke's words clearly showed disdain and contempt for Li Siqi, but Li Siqi did not dare to get angry, so he could only bow and answer, "When you say that, although the place is simple, the little minister is still used to living."
Seeing Li Siqi answering the question, after listening to Li Siqi's answer, Li Ke had an idea in his mind. He first glanced at Li Siqi, with a look of regret on his face, and then he kept talking to himself something as pity as a secret. When Li Siqi was puzzled by his actions, he continued, "Didn't I expect that the Dangdang Goryeo envoy would do such a tragic thing because of Princess Fusang's bewitching."
"What a pity! What a pity!" Li Ke continued, "The envoy of the Goryeo has done such a rebellious thing in the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty naturally had to ask for an explanation from Goryeo, but-" Li Ke said here, pausing for a moment and continuing, "After all, the Tang Dynasty has never been on a mission to Goryeo. If you want to ask for an explanation from Goryeo, you need at least a talent who is proficient in all aspects of Goryeo! Alas! What a pity!"
Li Ke's words were very obvious. He said at the beginning that the Goryeo envoy was bewitched by Princess Fusang, and then he said that he needed a talent who was proficient in all aspects of Goryeo. Even if Li Siqi was stupid, he could hear the implicit meaning in Li Ke's words. But he did not dare to ask Li Ke easily what he thought, and wanted to listen to Li Ke continue to say it. However, Li Ke said that he was not talking here, and it seemed that he would stop there, which made Li Siqi very anxious.
When Li Ke saw Li Siqi's impatient appearance, he knew what he was thinking. The reason why he dared to say such words made Li Siqi hear the implicit meaning was that when he met just now, he discovered Li Siqi's character and personality. As long as he could survive for himself, Li Siqi would not miss the opportunity he had to fight for. Just like when Li Ke asked him about living in a dungeon, his answer was like the habit of living. His words meant to be flattering, which shows that he is usually a flatterer.
"Deputy Envoy Li, I think you have heard what I said just now. I wonder if you have any suitable personnel to introduce to me?" Li Ke continued to say that Li Siqi was hesitant.
"Your Highness--" Li Siqi suddenly "pulled" and knelt in front of Li Ke and cried, "Your Highness, please make the decision for the little minister! The little minister was wronged!"
When Li Ke said this, Li Siqi himself did not dare to hesitate anymore, so he hurriedly shouted for justice to Li Ke. His voice was loud and loud, so that his cry could be heard throughout the dungeon.
Li Ke did not stop Li Siqi from calling, but listened quietly to Li Siqi's call for a long time, and then shouted when he was about to scream in a hoarse voice, "Bold Li Siqi, why don't you say anything in the court? You have to wait until you cry in front of me, OK! I want to hear what kind of injustice you have. I will tell you that if it is true, I will definitely make a decision for you. However, if you make a name out of nothing and shout for injustice, you should know the consequences."
"Your Highness, every sentence that Xiaochen said is true, there is no false statement. Please let Your Highness decide for the little minister! Report to Your Highness, your injustice is." Li Siqi said this, paused for a moment, and continued to say, "When Princess Fusang instigated my Goryeo envoy Gao Shouyan to do a great debauchery, Xiaochen really knew nothing. Later, when Xiaochen discovered their despicable behavior and wanted to inform the officials of the Honglu Temple of the Tang Dynasty, he did not expect that it was discovered by Gao Shouyan. He threatened Xiaochen that if Xiaochen dared to say half of what they did, he would push all the matter to Xiaochen. Xiaochen knew that he was just a deputy envoy, Gao Shouyan was the main envoy, and his words were more important than Xiaochen's words, so Xiaochen hid everything he knew under his threat."
Speaking of this, Li Siqi suddenly shouted loudly, "Your Highness, please make the decision for the little minister! The little minister was forced by Gao Shouyan, which is unfair!"
What Li Ke wanted was Li Siqi's words. He looked at the clerk around him and saw that the clerk recorded Li Siqi's words word by word. He asked sternly, "Li Siqi, as a messenger of Goryeo, you should know the content of what you said. I will ask you again, is what you said just now true?"
"Your Highness, everything you say is true. I hope your highness will make the decision for you!" Li Siqi continued to shout injustice.
"I will check it out if you are wronged or not!" Li Keyi said in a righteous manner, "As long as you prove that what you said is true, I will definitely give you a fairness. Not only will you forgive all the crimes you have been falsely accused, but you will also return to Goryeo to report. However, if I find that what you say is nonsense, I will never let you go."
Li Ke's words were obviously telling Li Siqi that as long as you are obedient, I will let you go back to China, and will also let you complete the task assigned to you by Goryeo and return to report. Therefore, when Li Siqi heard Li Ke's words, he not only did not show any fear, but instead he was even more dedicated and righteous to complain.
"Li Siqi!" Li Ke stopped Li Siqi from crying. Since Li Siqi had reached an agreement, he began to interrogate Li Siqi the answer he wanted, so he said in a stern tone, "Since you are calling for injustice, then tell me the king word for everything you know, tell me how Gao Shouyan threatened you and how he was bewitched by Princess Fusang. You must answer truthfully."
"I obey my order, I will never dare to deceive Your Highness!" Li Siqi shouted in a respectful tone, and then he explained the question that Li Ke had just asked him how he was threatened by Gao Shouyan and how Gao Shouyan was bewitched by Princess Fusang.
Li Siqi said in detail. It took a full stick of incense to record his confession. After Li Siqi finished explaining, Li Ke asked the clerk next to him if he could record it on the case. The clerk bowed and replied yes. Only then did Li Ke read the recorded file and modify a few questions. He signed Li Siqi on the file. When Li Ke finished all this, Wei Zheng, Sun Fujia and Dai Zhou in the two rooms also reviewed the Fusang Princess Morita Rieko.
Looking at the confession given by Rieko Morita in front of him, Li Ke smiled.
Wei Zheng, Sun Fujia and Dai Zhou looked at Li Siqi's confession, and the three of them almost cried.
The reason why Li Ke smiled was that Rieko Morita's confession left many suspicious points but did not explain it clearly. The reason why Wei Zheng, Sun Fujia and Dai Zhou wanted to cry was completely different from what they tried in court. Not only was it different, it was simply contrary to the situation.
Li Ke looked at Wei Zheng in front of him, Sun Fujia and Dai Zhou looked depressed, and wanted to laugh in his heart, but he couldn't laugh. Because Li Siqi's confession was fake, he pushed all the responsibility to Gao Shouyan in his confession, and added him a charge of threatening his subordinates to engage in great debauchery was entirely due to Li Ke's own consideration.
Because Li Ke clearly remembered that Li Shimin failed to conquer Goryeo three times in his later years. In addition to many other reasons, another important reason was Gao Shouyan's shamelessness. Because this person's Tang Dynasty played the role of a fence-bearing wolf in the war against Goryeo, he chose to surrender when the Tang army surrounded the Goryeo army and could not defeat him. After surrendering, he took the opportunity to rebel and attack the Tang army, which truly achieved shamelessness and sinisterness. Therefore, Li Ke wanted to get rid of this trouble in advance.
But the crimes that Gao Shouyan has committed now are not enough to kill him, and Li Shimin would not have killed Gao Shouyan randomly because of Li Ke's words. Therefore, Li Ke got along with this method, using Li Siqi's confession to expand his crimes, and wanted to behead him in the Tang Dynasty to prevent future troubles.
"Since Rieko Morita has explained the problem, then I will talk to her now! I hope I can get all valuable things." Li Ke said to Wei Zheng, Sun Fujia and Dai Zhou, "As for Li Siqi's injustice, you can also take a closer look at the file of Li Siqi's injustice and study it carefully. Since he dares to say that he was threatened by Gao Shouyan, we cannot take this matter lightly and wrongly accused good people. We still need to investigate it seriously."
"No!" Wei Zheng, Sun Fujia and Dai Zhou said respectfully. The three of them have been hit twice today and are very guilty of their carelessness and carelessness. Now seeing Li Ke being cautious in doing things, they began to admire Li Ke in their hearts.
