.

The interrogation continued in the guarding of the heavily Dali Temple lobby.

"Where is the interrogation record?" Hai Rui asked the innocent.

"It has always been in the hands of Master Wan..." Hu Yanqing said.

Hai Rui looked at Wanlun.

"I said it just now," Wanlun said in a muffled voice: "It's already burned."

"It's burned?" Hai Rui asked in a deep voice: "Since it's a normal issue about the case, why did it burn?"

"This..." Wanlun once again lost his words.

"You think about it first..." Hai Ruize let him go again and asked the Hu Yanqing, "Do you still remember the interrogation?"

"Remember them all." Hu Yanqing said: "To avoid forgetting, after the official returned, he wrote it again." As he said that, he took out a note from his arms and gave it to the Librarian and handed it to Hai Rui.

Hai Rui did not accept the Chen, but directly asked the bookkeeper to read it in class.

This order made the three Censorate, including Hu Yanqing, change their faces suddenly.

"Slow..." Wang Tingxiang couldn't help but stop him and said, "Mr. Hai, it's important to be a big deal. Let's take a look first and then decide whether to make it public..."

"The emperor has an order!" Hai Rui clasped his fists towards the palace and said, "This case must be explained to the people of the world, so of course we cannot hide it!" He said, and ordered the clerk, "Remember!"

The clerk had to read it out loud. It was okay at first, but in the middle, Wanlun's arrogant attitude shocked everyone... In fact, in general transcripts, the language of the questioner was polished, so Wanlun had no scruples during the interrogation, but it would be nice to sell him without adding fuel to the fire, so how could he help him decorate? He pulled the fig leaf and even Lu Lun was secretly shocked. Who said that scholars were gentle and elegant? If you don't act arrogantly, it would be better than our tutoring department?

Wanlun really wanted to block his ears, but his hands were shackled, and he could only listen if he didn't want to listen... Even in the Jinyiwei prison, he really expected that there were big men who could fool the case to cover up the truth. Although there were rumors, after all, it was not verified and he could always cover up his ears and steal the bell, right? Looking at this Hai Rui, such a disorganized mess, the rest of the jury were sitting there like puppets, sitting there and letting him do whatever he wanted. He finally knew... his luck was shattered.

He is disgraced and has a bad reputation for his life for thousands of years. This is the result of his hard work for others... Wanlun hates him, hates him as being obsessed with! He hates Hu Yanqing betrays himself! He hates Hai Rui for not following the rules! He hates those big men who regard him as a toilet!

He kept hating this and that, and the voice of the clerks over there was not stopping: "Wanlun asked: 'Who instructed you to forge the imperial edict!' Hu Zongxian replied: 'Wu is the governor of the six southeastern provinces, how can he be instructed by someone?' Wanlun said: 'Then I will change my question... have you ever had any accomplices?' Hu Zongxian replied: 'This is my own idea, and I have never asked anyone else!' Wanlun said: 'For such a big thing, you can't not consult people around you!' Hu Zongxian replied: 'You came to Shandong forgery to review me, can you consult people around you?' Wanlun said: 'You...you can't help but not regret it later!'" After reading this, he looked up at Hai Rui and said: "There is nothing behind."

"Then he called the officials out later and no longer allowed to record." Hu Yanqing continued: "Because he called the people from the East Factory in and asked them to torture Hu Zongxian and forced him to tell who the accomplice was."

"Is that true?" Hai Rui looked at Wanlun and said.

"..." Wan Lun stared at Hu Yanqing with resentment, and after a while, he squeezed out two words from his teeth and said: "It's true..."

"Then the people from the East Factory come in and help you torture?" Hai Rui continued.

Lun nodded and said, he was already ashamed and ready to give up and pull everyone into the water.

Seeing that he gave up his resistance, Hai Rui did not take advantage of the situation to pursue him, but looked at Wang Tingxiang and said, "Mr. Wang, I have a third problem, I hope you will give me advice."

Tingxiang still realized... Hai Rui deliberately wanted to dig out all the inside story, so he repeatedly launched psychological attacks on Wanlun... From putting torture instruments on him to sitting or standing in the whole hall, he only let him kneel down and reply, to Zhang Chi's moderate verbal stimulation, and finally, with the rebellion of Hu Yanqing and the exposure of interrogation words, he completely defeated his defense.

If Hai Rui was not the kind of scheming person, he had already planned and planned it step by step! No matter which one, if he was allowed to do this, the result would be that the clouds would clear and the fog would dissipate, and all the gods in the sky would appear!

Wang Tingxiang is not a person like Wanlun who is ignorant of the importance of the matter. He knows that once the big figures are exposed, it will inevitably cause a major earthquake in the political arena. At that time, the gods will be too busy to take care of themselves. Who cares about their guarantees? For the sake of the overall situation and for self-protection, he has to think of a way to prevent the interrogation from continuing.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"As far as I know, the relationship between the East Factory and the Censorate has always been bad, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are mutual enemies." Hai Rui looked at Wang Tingxiang and said, "Why did they obediently violate the will this time and took Hu Zongxian to Xia Town, which was nearly a hundred miles away from the official road for trial? Can you still impose severe punishment on Hu Zongxian, who should have been under their jurisdiction and protection at the time of Wanlun's order? When did the Censorate and the Censorate have reconciled, or did the East Factory have become the branch of your court?"

Finally, he asked about the palace. Wang Tingxiang's expression relaxed, but Feng Bao became nervous.

"Please reply!" Hai Rui said in a deep voice.

"This question," Wang Ting looked at Feng Bao and said, "I have to ask this father-in-law before I can answer it."

"Ask." Hai Rui could not treat a second-rank official like he did to Wanlun, even if he was now in a guilty state.

"This father-in-law," Wang Tingxiang said to Feng Bao: "The emperor once had an order, saying, 'The affairs in the palace are in charge of the palace, and the affairs outside the palace are in charge of the palace." Now, Lord Hai wants to ask about the matter of Dongchang, can I answer him?"

"So..." Feng Bao said with a embarrassed look: "The emperor asked our family to come and listen. We dare not make any decisions. But the emperor did say this," and said to Hai Rui and said: "Mr. Hai, it's already noon now, and everyone is tired and hungry. Do you think you should have a lunch break first and wait until our family asks the emperor for instructions, and we will continue to interrogate in the afternoon?"

"Don't be busy with food." He said politely, but Hai Rui didn't give him any face and said, "Don't worry, my official's question will not involve the palace."

With Hai Rui's promise, Feng Bao didn't blame him for being rude, so he looked at Wang Tingxiang with no help, meaning, I can't help you anymore, so I'll be blessed.

"Mr. Wang, I don't know what the official question has just asked, which may cause you to misunderstand," Hai Rui's voice sounded again: "I'll change the question now. What method did you order to Dongchang?"

"Through relationships, I greeted you." Wang Tingxiang could only hesitate.

"It's verbal or written." Hai Rui asked.

"Oral." Wang Tingxiang swallowed and spitted.

"Eunuch Feng," Hai Rui turned his head and looked at Feng Bao and said, "Although he went to Dongchang Head in Shandong, he died of a disaster, his boss is still there!"

"You..." Feng Bao's white face was about to be wrinkled into a chrysanthemum, and he said, "Don't remember the following few words."

The official looked at Hai Rui and saw him nodding, so he put down his pen and took a break.

Feng Bao then whispered: "Mr. Hai, didn't you say that you would not involve the palace?"

"I'll just ask some regular questions." Hai Rui said lightly: "For example, who will take care of the dead head?"

"He is from the East Factory, so he is naturally under the supervision of the factory." Feng Bao did not want to tell the structure of the East Factory outside, so he could only vaguely say.

"Okay, please go back and report to the emperor. The eunuch of the East Factory and the Eunuch of the Zuodu Censor colluded with the inside and outside, and made a ill-intentioned plan." Hai Ruishi Potian said in shock: "I will also submit a copy and report to the emperor about the situation." He said, looking at the official and said, "Continue to record!"

"Haigangfeng!" Wang Tingxiang couldn't hold on any longer and bounced up from the chair and said, "Don't spit people with blood. When will I collude with Dongchang?" If he didn't get involved in Dongchang, he would be a crime of resisting the order. At most, he would not want to do anything. He would just go home and enjoy his old age. But now, if Hai Rui clings like this, he will be a serious crime to lose his head.

Since ancient times, collusion between inside and outside has been the biggest taboo of the king. No matter how kind Emperor Longqing is, it is impossible to be exceptional.

‘Bang…’ Hai Rui slapped the agglomeration, staring at Wang Tingxiang with his eyes as a knife, and said without giving in: “If it’s not a collusion, then how could the Admiral of the East Factory go against the holy will with your words and help you beat and kill? Tell me if you are the one you are the one or the emperor is the one?"

"Of course..." Wang Tingxiang's momentum was suppressed and he whispered: "Master."

"Then why did he go against the holy will just because of your words?!" Hai Rui said coldly: "This is called no collusion. I wonder if the emperor will believe it! Will all officials believe it!"

"You...I..." Wang Tingxiang's face turned blue, white, red, and black. Finally, his eyes turned black, and he fell straight on the chair, unconscious.

"Mr. Wang..." The scene was immediately in chaos. Yang Yushu personally went to help Wang Tingxiang. Wang Tingxiang's entourage rushed in. While surrounding his master, he glared at Hai Rui and said rudely: "Forcing my master to death, you will pay your life!"

Hai Rui sat there like a god, and slapped the arson without any movement and said, "Silent!"

"Wei...wu..." Tang made a loud voice and immediately suppressed all the noise.

"Please help Lord Wang down the hall and ask the imperial physician to treat it." Hai Rui ordered in a deep voice: "His entourage trespassed into the court and spoke rudely to the court. He should have been forty-stopped by each person. I'd like to think that he was eager to protect his master, and reduce it to five times! Those who dared to commit another crime will not be reduced at once!"

His last sentence made the attendants swallow their words that were sprayed to their throats.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After an interlude, the lobby returned to silence. Hai Rui looked at the terrified hall and said, "Let's leave Wang Zongxian's problem for the time being, and let's talk about it after it recovers." He looked at Wanlun and said, "You can explain my previous questions, right?"

Seeing Wang Tingxiang being forced by Hai Rui to pass the test by pretending to be dead, Wan Lun's heart was filled with desolation, full of determination, staring at Hai Rui and said, "Okay! Good method! I think you, Hai Rui, are more powerful than Sun Wuzi, are you going to make a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace!" As he said that, his eyes swept across the hall and said, "Since you want to know the truth so much, then ask! Ask!" His tone suddenly increased, and he almost roared: "As long as you dare to ask, I will dare to say anything!" The eardrums buzzed, and everyone changed color.

But except Hai Rui, he was angry by Wanlun's attitude of not afraid of boiling water, and he also slapped the table and said, "Then I will ask you now! Is it Wang Tingxiang instructing you to torture Hu Zongxian!"

"No!" Wanlun shook his head.

"Who is that?" Hai Rui asked, "Don't say such nonsense as 'self-claiming'!"

"That person is..." Wanlun looked at everyone and said word by word: "Li Chunfang, the second assistant to the cabinet, the Grand Secretary of Zhongji Palace, is Mr. Xia Hai satisfied now!"

The official who had been writing quickly stopped his wrists, stood up timidly, wiped the sweat from his eyes with his sleeves, and looked at Hai Rui and said, "Big, sir, this... is so small that I really dare not remember it."

"Then let's stop for a while..." This time I was having too much fun and Lu Lun couldn't watch the show, so he spoke for the first time: "Master Hai, I don't want this part, let's retrieve it."

"Yes..." Feng Bao also interfered: "This random talk with Wan is a man, we must have a brain."

Although Yang Yushu didn't speak, he kept looking at Hai Rui, meaning that he could stop at the right time.

"Take it." Hai Rui turned a blind eye to these gazes and said to the official: "I'll remember it myself."

The official then brought the recorded paper to the big case. Hai Rui picked up the pen, filled in Wanlun's words just now, and continued to ask: "You said it's Mr. Li, do you have any evidence?"

"There was originally a handwritten letter from him..." Wanlun whispered.

"How are you sure it's written by yourself?" Hai Rui didn't raise his head and wrote while asking.

"We are from the same hometown in the same year. We have a good relationship. He is the top scholar. We have reached the top mid-year, so I have always flattered him." Wanlun said in a bamboo tube like a bean: "Later, I got a call from oil and water. During the holidays, I got Bingjing and Tanjing sent it. He wrote me to thank me. I usually have some letters, so I recognize his words well."

"Where is that letter?" Hai Rui asked, "Is it burned too?"

"This is the real purpose of asking my servant to burn things... I thought that he could save me by keeping him, but now... I don't need to resist him." Wanlun sighed.

When everyone heard that he was burning, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. As long as there was no evidence, this matter could not be a big deal! Unexpectedly, Wanlun's next sentence shocked everyone in a cold sweat: "Actually, the truth is, I lost..."
