Chapter 934 Xiang Zhuang's Sword Dance Intention to Pei Gong (2)
"Li Ling, what else do you have to say?" Fei Chong's words suddenly woke Li Ling up from his thoughts. He suddenly looked up and looked at him. After a while, he said coldly: "What else can I say when you are so determined to harm me? It's nothing more than just a crime that you want to inflict!"
"Haha, what a crime is so bad. What do you mean is that I am actually conspiring with many adults in the court to harm you? Are you saying that the smuggling illegal military weapons by the Caogang has nothing to do with you, and it is even our conspiracy? Even the shortage of military rations and supplies in the northern border has nothing to do with you, Shaoqing, the forward transport department who coordinates all logistics?
"Li Ling, you have reached this point. Do you still dare to say that you were wronged? It seems that you really don't know what the net of heaven is so vast that it is not leaked! Come and take him down! Since he refuses to admit his sins in my state, then send him to the capital. I believe that the court will have a way to make him confess his guilt and punish him!"
With Governor Fei's silence, many soldiers and generals outside had entered the court and held Li Ling in front of everyone. During this period, he only had a sneer on his face, but he did not do more resistance or extraordinary things. Because he knew very well that at this point, he had completely fallen into a disadvantage. Whether it was a dispute or struggle, it was futile and he would only suffer more. It would be better to be bound calmly.
After seeing Li Ling tied up, Fei Chong looked at Zheng Bei, who was a little stunned above: "Prince Zheng, these criminals ask you to continue the interrogation. Be sure to put their crimes into effect."
"Yes, the official understands." Zheng Bie quickly came back to his senses and agreed quickly. He finally understood where Governor Fei's confidence came from. It turned out that he had reached cooperation with relevant people in the court, so Li Ling was just his goal, without any threat.
When Li Ling was taken out of the lobby by these soldiers, all the people who were hearing the trial looked contemptuous. These ordinary people all had a simple heart and were most hostile to those corrupt officials. Li Ling would be even more despised by the guys who took the border army's supplies for him. If it weren't for the officers and soldiers around him, there would probably be someone who would pick up stones and throw them in his face and curse them a few words.
But even though he was not really attacked, Li Ling staggered forward in a very embarrassing manner under the rush of the soldiers, and finally he even slapped the high threshold at the gate and almost fell down. When he tried his best to stabilize his body and looked out, he saw Yang Zhen and Li Moyun standing in the crowd with his wife, full of surprise and concern, and even a little ready to move, wanting to save him.
Yang Zhen was still late. When he hurriedly rode his horse to the government office, he saw Fei Chong leading his troops into the government office. But only after seeing the situation, he made a decisive judgment, afraid that the matter would be irreversible and his lord had completely fallen into the other party's trap.
Not long afterwards, Yang Qingxiao and Li Moyun also rushed over, but they couldn't enter the yamen again. They only knew that Li Ling's current situation must be very bad. But no matter how much they estimated, they would never have expected that he would come out in such a mess in the end and become a prisoner of Fei Chong!
Seeing this, Yang Qingxiao couldn't wait for a moment
After shaking his hands and thrusting his body, he wanted to kill him to save the person. Although the other two were a little worried, they didn't care at this time and wanted to accompany her. As a result, this action happened to fall into Li Ling's eyes who looked up.
This shocked him and quickly stared at his wife, then shook his head firmly, and a meaning had been conveyed quickly: "Don't take action, don't do anything randomly!"
Yang Qingxiao's movements stopped immediately. She was in the crowd and communicated with her husband with eyes, but from that decisive gaze, she saw resoluteness. She bit her lips and bite her bleeding, but after all, she did not go against her husband's wishes.
Under this buffer, more officers and soldiers from behind Li Ling came out and quickly controlled all parties, so that they could even lose the last chance. However, Fei Chong, who was walking behind, swept across the front with some regrets, but no one could rescue Li Ling? If a few eyes-free guys really came out to kill the officers and soldiers to save people, then he could justify killing these people and Li Ling at the yamen, which would be less trouble.
However, since no one took action, he couldn't act too obviously, so he asked someone to escort Li Ling into the team and headed towards the Governor's Mansion where he was. Such an important prisoner naturally had to be imprisoned in a more comprehensive Governor's Mansion.
During this period, Li Ling had another eye contact with Yang Qingxiao. Relying on the tacit understanding between the couple, she knew that her situation was worrying and she had to go home immediately and protect her family first. As for his own safety, it seems that he is powerless to make decisions on his own.
Faced with her husband's silent advice, Yang Qingxiao chose to endure and did not take the risk to take action. She could only watch Li Ling go away, her eyes turned red: "Yang Dusi..." She called softly.
Yang Zhen hurriedly said respectfully: "Madam, just call me Yang Zhen. No matter when, I am a subordinate of Lord Li!"
"Thank you... I'm going back now, so here... Li Lang's safety can only be left to you." After taking a deep breath, Yang Qingxiao temporarily suppressed the turbulent emotions in her heart and asked.
Yang Zhen nodded seriously: "Bizhi will do his best to protect the adults and restore his innocence. Don't worry, as long as I am here in one breath, no one can hurt him!"
"Well, Mo Yun, let's leave here now..." Yang Qingxiao said, turning around and leaving.
"What about the leader of the Yang Gang and the other brothers of the Cao Gang?" Li Moyun couldn't help asking again. This made Yang Qingxiao look darker, but after gritting her teeth, she still said decisively: "Now I don't care about anything else. If Yang Zhen's news is true, something might happen to the family soon. I can't protect me anymore, and I can't let our family suffer disasters!" Although she was the eldest lady of the Cao Gang, she is now the mistress of the Li family. Now that something happened to her husband, she naturally has to withstand this family.
At this moment, the few people said nothing and separated in front of the government office. Li Moyun followed Yang Qingxiao to leave Jingzhou and went straight back to Jiangcheng. Yang Zhen turned around and returned to his place here, and had to think of a legitimate idea to protect his own lord.
When he was away from Jingzhou City, the tears in Yang Qingxiao's eyes could not help but slip.
At that time, the three of them were full of confidence in saving the Cao Gang. But now, in just a few days, their husband was imprisoned and in an extremely bad situation, and they really lost a lot.
What made her feel even more guilty and anxious was that in this game, she has become a bystander. No matter how anxious or unwilling to do so, she can't help but intervene. No one can save her!
When Yang Qingxiao left Jingzhou City, Li Ling was also taken to a deep and wet prison. The prison in the Governor's Office was much empty than the government office, and almost no one else was involved, but the conditions were the same. Not to mention the smell, it was even darker, making people only see about a ft in front of them.
After he was thrown into the cell, everyone came to the front with a fake smile: "Mr. Li, I really feel wronged this time. But there is no way. The prison of our Governor's Office has never been taken care of, so you can only just put it in a moment."
"Just say anything, don't beat around the bush." Li Ling leaned against the wet wall, felt a chill, and then stood up again and looked at the guy outside the prison door.
"This is what our governor means. As long as you admit your guilt and sign and seal this confession, we will not make things difficult for you, and your family. You can even let you go." As he said that, a piece of paper was handed in from the fence.
Li Ling took it casually, squinted his eyes and looked down little by little, his expression changed rapidly, and finally he turned into a sneer: "Not mentioning that the above words are framed, and even some people have blamed me for these crimes. I can't believe it just for you, Governor Fei. Go back and tell him that if you want my life, Li Ling, just do it, but if you want to use this conspiracy to plot against me, let him learn more from the people who designed it behind me and then make a fool of himself." As he said that, he tore the confession into pieces in a few seconds and threw it aside.
The man outside the prison gate suddenly looked cold: "Mr. Li, you really don't cry when you see the coffin. OK, if you want to hold on, then try it. Then you will regret it!" After saying harsh words, he turned around and left.
It was not until the other party left that Li Ling let out a long breath, his face became a little more gloomy. Things were more troublesome than what he thought. It turned out that he had overestimated his weight in the other party's heart. This move was Xiang Zhuang's sword dance, but the problem was that he was not actually Pei Gong in their eyes.
Yes, this game is so deep and so big that in addition to the planning of a master like Mo Li, the most important thing is to mobilize the officialdom of the Northern Xinjiang and the Huai River. The military people take the risk of scapegoating, which is even more difficult than just setting up this plan.
And those who can do this and dare to do this are only the prince left in the court. Even if the prince hates himself to the core, he will not be able to make such a big deal or make a move to deal with him. The only person who can make him take this risk and achieve his goal is only one person - King Ying Sun Bi.
