Father can be an enemy to the country

After dinner, Zhu Zhen returned to the Shengzhen Hall, taking over from Luo Guanzhong who was already tired from eating, and continued the night review.

Come back... Chen Qianfu and Jin Wenzheng were both numb. On this day, they were beaten without eating or drinking, and they answered the few questions over and over again, which made them want to die.

Where are you? Zhu Zhen was full of food and drink, full of energy, and said with a smile:

Have you heard of the fatigue tactic? You have to be interrogated for twenty-four hours. You are not allowed to sleep, eat or drink. It completely destroys your will and makes you confess your experiences of stealing family money and going to brothels when you were young.

I've recruited all the people I can, and there's no point in trying to recruit anything I can't! Jin Wenzheng, who was being interrogated by him, hissed angrily: Besides, I don't even pay when I go to the brothels in my hometown!

It doesn't matter if we don't recruit you. Then we'll come back for another twelve hours. Anyway, we can change shifts for interrogation. If you don't recruit us, we'll just endure it. Zhu Zhen said with an expectant smile: The longest record now is thirty-four. Shichen, I really hope you can break this record.

You, you are not human... Jin Wenzheng almost cried with anger...

Teacher Luo feels the same way. When it comes to torturing people, this sixth child is indeed not a human being. Together with his third brother, he is known as the Three Kings of Perversion.

Unlike King Jin who prefers physical torture, Lao Liu prefers mental torture. Watching a person go from being arrogant and angry at the beginning, to gradually becoming painful and tormented, and finally breaking down bit by bit and completely giving up his resistance, he felt as happy as a 180-pound child.

How's it going? Zhu Zhen smiled, poured a cup of tea, brought it to him and said, Are you going to suffer less and go back to eat, drink and sleep early. Or should you continue to stay here and break the record?

I don't know... Jin Wenzheng's head was empty and he went to hold the cup of tea with both hands.

Zhu Zhen tilted his hand, poured the tea in the cup on the ground and said, Then continue.

Jin Wenzheng licked his dry lips, looked regretfully at the tea spilled on the floor, and said with a wry smile:

Actually, I've told you everything I know... I just don't like Song Jijiu, so as soon as Chen Qianfu said he wanted to get him, I agreed. I really haven't met anyone other than Guozixue. Apart from knowing Mr. Qianfu I have a close relationship with the great Confucian scholar from Jiangnan, and apart from being his student as Minister of Civil Affairs, I really don’t know anything else.”

So, you are one of their peripheral members? Zhu Zhen crossed his hands and propped them on the table, holding his chin up and asked:

What about Wang Siye? Is he also a peripheral person? Zhu Zhen asked.

Strictly speaking, that's true. Jin Wenzheng replied with a distracted look: He has always wanted to serve as a sacrificial wine, or be sent to the Hanlin Academy of the Ministry of Rites, but he had no connections, so he stayed here for more than ten years. Otherwise, he would not have hidden his secrets. My husband is like a thigh and I obey his words.

Perhaps in the future, when he becomes the sacrificial wine, he will no longer have to be a peripheral person. He continued: I heard Master Qianfu hinting at this.

What are the benefits of being a core member? Lao Liu asked again.

That's too much. If you are accepted as a core member, you can get more support, be promoted quickly, and make political achievements easily. If they help build momentum, won't a generation of capable ministers and officials be established? Jin Wenzheng I couldn't help but envy: Of course, I'm still young and don't dare to expect this. I'll be content with being a peripheral first.

Hmm... Zhu Zhen interrogated him for a while and saw that he really didn't know much. The answers are full of conjecture and uncertainty, and are really of little value.

He waved his hand and asked Team Leader Wang to take Jin Wenzheng to the east room to continue asking questions, and then asked Chen Qianfu to be brought over.

Faced with the same question, Chen Qianfu's answer was much more sophisticated.

How do I have any organization? It's all made up by young people. My friends from the same hometown only know that I come to the capital to teach and have no idea what's going on here. They are all idle clouds and wild cranes who don't care about the world. I told them I don’t understand either.”

Why should I help make suggestions? Firstly, Wang Siye and I are chess friends. When we were playing chess, I gave him some advice, which made him rely on me. Secondly, Song Jijiu did too much. , teachers and students can no longer hold on. Some of them sympathize with them, and some are willing to help.

But it would be ridiculous to say that I am a member of the party who opposes dissenters and conspires to make sacrifices. I am nearly 70 years old and have no children. What good will it do to me?

What, I promote offering wine as a sacrifice to become an official? I'm not being humble. I am a small eighth-grade doctor, and I don't even listen to what the cook says. How can I still promote offering wine to lead to an official position? Then why not let myself be a sacrifice for wine? ?”

Because the Minister of Libu is my student? Yu Budang only studied Gongyang Zhuan with me for a few days when he was young. What kind of student is he? You guys are embarrassed to say it, but I am embarrassed to admit it... Besides, even if I ask shamelessly If I come to my door, people won’t pay attention to me.”

All in all, what he said was very accurate. If Lao Liu hadn't read the surveillance records before he came, he might have believed his lies.

But because the content of his chat with Yu Shangshu was already known, Qianhugong's performance was of no use and only made him laugh.

Zhu Zhen waited for him to finish with a smile, and then said with a gentle smile: Then why did you go to his house that day to just play chess?

Mr. Qianfu's calm face froze slightly, but he soon regained his composure and said, Yes, play chess. Both I and Yu Budang love playing chess, but at such an old age, I still know what's appropriate. I never say anything to him when playing chess. It's official business. I feel upset when I hear this, and I don't know how to react to us.

That makes sense. Zhu Zhen nodded and said, Then why do you still resist others even though you know this? They clearly don't want to get involved. Why do you insist on asking them to do something for Song Newen?

I, I didn't... Chen Qianfu was dumbfounded, and thunder exploded in his mind. Why did I hear what Lao Liu said? It seemed like he was there at that time.

Didn't you say that if the joint signature of Guozixue is not enough, you will also mobilize the people of Yushitai to impeach? Zhu Zhen said quietly: Brother Qianfu is really too self-effacing. It's true that he is just a doctor, maybe The amount is so large that it’s beyond imagination. The Feng Xianguan of the imperial court actually listens to you.

Hey, what are you talking about? Chen Qianfu said with a cold sweat on his back, How come I can't understand a word?

Okay, then I will read you the original words - Zhu Zhen picked up a piece of paper from the table and read:

Heng asked: Who will take over? Does the teacher have a candidate?'

Chen said: 'Just Wang Siye.'

Heng said: 'This guy is not very good. Not to mention his mediocre abilities, he also likes to mess around and makes a mess wherever he goes. I really don't know how he gets better and better.

Chen said: 'Because he is from western Zhejiang. When we old guys recommended you to the court as an official, I told you that only people from the same hometown are our own.'

Chen Qianfu was stunned and his face was ashen...
