Chapter 401

: A desperate bet

The officials who were still locked in the imperial prison of the Jinyiwei were all hoping that Tang Feng would send someone to ask about his crime again so that he could leave this ghost place by counting the fact that Eunuch Wei was not. Of course, there were those who thought farther away, worried that if this matter was leaked, it would cause disaster for him, but now it was already unlucky enough. I think even if the truth was really revealed, it would be the case. Moreover, they thought that Tang Feng would not let such rebellious words come to Eunuch Wei's ears, and everyone was eagerly looking forward to the arrival of the Jinyiwei's retrial.

The day came soon. Two days after listening to Lu An's report that the matter had been done, Tang Feng, accompanied by two thousand households, Lu An and Luo Yangxing, came to the imperial prison in person to conduct the last "interrogation" of these officials. When he saw that it was Lord Tang who came to ask questions in person, the officials felt even more at ease. If his subordinates changed their confessions without knowing the seriousness of the matter, then he would be too miserable. Now that Lord Tang is asking questions in person, they think that everything will no longer change.

Because it was Lord Tang who came to ask about the matter, the situation where these officials were arranged to be interrogated was better than the last time, and it was in a spacious room where the imperial prison was advanced. This made the officials who had been in the dark cell for more than ten days feel the preciousness of freedom, and it strengthened their determination to pull Wei Zhongxian as a shield.

"You should know why I, the Jinyiwei, have arrested you. It's ridiculous that you avoided the important things in order to save your life. You only gave some irrelevant things. Now the Japanese official comes to ask you in person, if you still refuse to confess your fault truthfully, I am afraid that I can't wait for those torture instruments." Tang Feng said sternly as soon as he saw them: "I am following a confession. If you are willing to confess, you don't have to bear the pain of flesh and blood, and the crime can be reduced a little, otherwise..."

Although Tang Feng said it very harshly, the officials below did not think about what he said, but kept thinking about his confession that he had already made a draft before, seeing if there were any loopholes on it. In their opinion, as soon as they were related to Eunuch Wei, the now-looking fierce Tang Tongzhi would immediately let him go. So why bother pay attention to what he was saying?

"...Okay, now I'll give you a last chance to write down all the crimes that I thought would be captured by my Jinyiwei." After saying a lot of threatening words, Tang Feng was obviously a little thirsty. He waved his hand and ordered people to give each official paper, pen, ink and inkstone, and then started drinking tea on his own.

Seeing this life-saving thing appear in front of you, all the officials' eyes lit up. They took paper and pen from the hands of the Jinyiwei like robbing, and immediately fell on the desk and started writing quickly. Because they have been thinking about how to write this confession every day for the past few days, they have not stopped at all, and they have not been so attentive when they were taking the top scorer in the year. They all lowered their heads and wrote, but they did not notice a smug smile on the corner of Tang Feng, who was sitting on it drinking tea, as if they saw the prey falling into his own trap and waiting for him to take it out.

However, in just two minutes, these adults had already written the so-called confession and handed it over to Tang Feng by the Jinyiwei. Seeing that the confession had been presented, the people's faces showed hope again, hoping that after Tang Feng would be shocked on the spot after reading his "official confession", he then ordered someone to release himself.

But the situation was beyond their expectations again. Tang Feng just looked at the signatures and seals on the confessions of these officials, and did not look at the contents on it carefully, so he ordered people to detain them. Although this situation was different from what he hoped, when he thought of the officials who were released before and what he heard the night before, they were still very confident that they could get out of the imperial prison, so they were no longer afraid when they left.

It was not until only Tang Feng and a few confidants were left in the hall that he smiled easily: "It seems that these people are really worth my advice. Just look at their appearance and you will know what they want to do. Sometimes villains are easier to deal with than gentlemen."

"Then you must be good at adapting and set up this mechanism to attract them. Now that you have these things in hand, why worry about them not accepting obediently? As long as you threaten them with one plus, these people will never dare to go against your intentions. Lord Yuan's affairs will naturally be left unresolved." Lu An also smiled relaxedly. Tang Feng only told him what he wanted to do, but he never expressed his true intention, so he just thought that Tang Feng wanted to use this to threaten those censors.

At this time, the plan was completed, and Tang Feng had no need to hide it. There were people he could trust here, so he shook his head gently and said, "This is just a problem that was solved by the way. I spent so much effort to set up such a situation not only to help Yuan Yuan, but to a bigger problem."

"Huh?" Lu An and Luo Yangxing were both stunned. They didn't understand what bigger problems Tang Feng had to use these imperial mouthpieces to help him complete them, so they both looked at Tang Feng who was smiling.

After reading a few confessions, Tang Feng smiled even brighter after reading the documents above, and his instructions were mostly about how he was instructed by Wei Zhongxian to criticize the people who were enemies with him and the exchanges with him. He knew that with Wei Zhongxian's current power, he had no scruples in doing things. Naturally, everyone knew what he did. These censors actually involved all these things with him in order to save themselves, which shows how flexible their thinking was.

Seeing Tang Feng laughing so happily, Lu An and the others were even more confused. Finally, Lu An couldn't help asking: "What are your plans? Please ask for instructions. You can also help me."

"I'll ask you, what's everything I've done in the capital and even outside over the years?"

"This... is of course to ensure that the country of Ming Dynasty will be permanent." Lu An answered without thinking, but he did not get Tang Feng's affirmation. Luo Yangxing on the other side had guessed: "What sir is that it is time to deal with the eunuch party now?" When he said this, his voice trembled unconsciously.

Tang Feng nodded and said, "Yes, because of the huge power of the eunuch party, no one in the court dared to impeach them bluntly, which made them a little lost. If I suddenly exert force, I will definitely give them a heavy blow! And at this time, these censors have to obey my wishes!"

"My lord think twice. Now the eunuch party is still as strong as the Japanese side. We don't see any chance of winning at all. How can we declare war with it?" Luo Yangxing immediately opposed: "If this matter cannot be done, I'm afraid you will..."

"There has never been a big thing in this world that can be accomplished without taking a little risk. Now that time is no longer waiting, I can no longer wait for a better time. And recently, Wei Yin's vigilance against me has become stronger day by day. Since I always have to fight, why don't I choose someone to attack when he can't even think of it?" Tang Feng said unmoved.

"But sir, can we really accomplish things with just these censors? And will they really help sir?" Lu An asked with concern. In fact, he was not afraid of fighting with Tang Feng, but he didn't want to fight with no chance of winning.

"With these things in hand, why worry about not helping me? Now they are like me, no way back. Only by impeaching Wei Zhongxian and knocking him down can they continue to be their officials. Otherwise, being exiled will be light, and even implicating their families. So at this time, I think these people who have always been like fences and only know how to protect themselves should also know how to choose!"

Tang Feng's words showed great determination, and Lu An and the others didn't know how to persuade him. After a while, they gritted their teeth: "Since lord has made a decision, we will sacrifice our lives to accompany you. I wonder what lord has to give?"

Tang Feng smiled with satisfaction: "Okay! With the strength of our Jinyiwei, and the evidence of Wei Zhongxian that I had before, I think this time I will definitely give him an unforgettable lesson. Moreover, I have prepared a more powerful evidence for him and the emperor. As long as the emperor does not really have no arguments, the Wei Yin party will inevitably be destroyed this time!"

The lord had other preparations, which was much better than the two of them. They knew that after Tang Feng took over the Jinyiwei, they had secretly sent trustworthy people out to supervise the officials of the eunuch party. They had already obtained a lot of evidence, but this was not enough to shake Wei Zhongxian's status. But now, he seemed to have another trick, which made the two more interested.

But Tang Feng obviously did not intend to satisfy their curiosity, but changed the topic: "Tonight, I will come here again to talk to those officials. At that time, you will have to arrange the staff here and do not reveal the matter!"

"Yes, sir, don't worry, we will definitely arrange the manpower. Everything that happened here today will not be leaked!"

When Tang Feng walked out of the imperial prison, his original passion faded a lot. Now that his wife is pregnant, he wants to fight the eunuch party head-on, which is not out of his original intention. But as time passes by little, and now he finally finds that there is such an opportunity, he has to take a gamble. Otherwise, when the wheel of history comes to kill Wei eunuch, everything will be too late!

At this time, he couldn't help but recall his situation when he was in Ningyuan. He was also so desperate at that time and finally won. Will this be the case this time? Also, will Yuan Chonghuan do that according to his suggestions?
