The charming empress is too good at fishing, and the ruthless emperor has fallen

Deng Tong was quickly tied up with his hands on a stand.

He raised his head weakly and saw that Ying Tian was coming. He pursed his chapped lips and said in a hoarse voice: "Grand Governor, my subordinates have already said what they need to say, why don't you let them go? After all, your subordinates have followed you for so many years, and they have worked hard without any credit. Do you really want to kill all your subordinates?"

"Have you already said it?" When Yingtian heard this, he sarcastically said, and then waved his hand directly to the hoopoe.

Hoopoe immediately understood and took a red-hot iron and pressed it directly on Deng Tong's chest.

"what--"

Suddenly, a scream mixed with the sound and smell of burned flesh floated through the dark cell.

Jing Shu looked at this scene and suddenly felt like vomiting.

She found that she still overestimated herself.

It’s the original person who grew up in the environment of the Inspectorate and is used to such occasions! Not her!

She pursed her lips and looked away slightly to hold back the uncomfortable feeling.

"If you have confessed everything, what about the iron mine that you and Wen Ran privately run together?" At this time, Ying Tian's cold voice sounded again.

Deng Tong still endured the physical pain with a painful look on his face.

When I suddenly heard this, I was stunned.

"What? You think this governor will find out what you did?" Ying Tian looked at him sarcastically, "The entire mine in Saibei should belong to the Ying family army without any conditions. Only the Ying family army is qualified to mine it. , and the mined ore is mainly used for weapon forging.

"The reason why the Ying family army has been able to deter Beirong for so many years is because of its rich weapons reserves.

"But you and Wen Ran secretly hid an iron mine, mined it privately, colluded with the bandits, kidnapped civilians to mine for you, and then secretly transported the ore to Beirong through a secret tunnel?

"Deng Tong, I remember that your parents and sisters were killed by the bandits. Not only did you not try your best to eradicate the bandits to avenge your family, so that the people on the border would no longer have to suffer from the bandits, you actually stayed with the bandits. Cooperate with gangsters to do such a thing as betraying the governor and betraying Saibei? Where is your humanity?

"Deng Tong, I just want to ask you today, where is the iron mine and where is the secret road leading to Beirong? If you don't answer this question, I will send people to investigate slowly, and you can always find out. Find the location of the iron mine and the secret passage, but if you answer the question, I will still respect you and think you are still a man!

"Tell me! Where are the secret passages and iron mines!"

As soon as Ying Tian finished his questioning words, the cell suddenly fell into a deathly silence.

Deng Tong looked at Ying Tian with a fierce look on his face, but said nothing.

It seems that he has no intention of telling Ying Tian the location of the iron mine and the secret passage.

However, Jing Shu heard what he said in his heart: "How could Ying Tian, ​​a fool who only knows how to lead troops and use brute force, know that several mines in the north were secretly occupied by people sent by King Qing? Why did I betray him and betray Saibei? King Qing Who is he? He is from the imperial court! He wants to cooperate with Beirong in buying and selling ore, that means the imperial court intends to cooperate with Beirong! Yingtian thinks he is the emperor of Saibei, does he really think he is the emperor? The real emperor, It's the one sitting in the palace in the capital! The emperor already dislikes him and wants to get rid of him. If he dares to go against the emperor, sooner or later he will die! Sooner or later, the Ying family army will disappear from the Great Xia Dynasty!"

After hearing this, Jingshu was shocked.

King Qing?

What do Lu Zan mean? Lu Zan intends to cooperate with Beirong? So he deliberately instigated King Qing to secretly dig mines and then send them to Beirong?

Soon, Jingshu denied this speculation.

impossible.

Lu Zan's temperament would never allow him to do such a thing!

Especially using bandits to rob civilians for mining, this kind of behavior is definitely not what Lu Zan would do!

After all, this bitch is only indifferent to the women in the harem and does not take the lives of the slaves in the palace seriously. However, the common people represent the people of the world. He has his own political ambitions and will never do such harm. A matter for civilians!

"Deng Tong, do you think you are very smart?" At this time, Jing Shu suddenly said.

Deng Tong was startled when he heard the sound.

Then, he saw Jing Shu sitting behind Ying Tian.

The light was dim, and he hadn't noticed anyone else there before. Now that he recognized her, he couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Grand Governor, you are interrogating your subordinates, and you actually brought your daughter here? She is a woman. In such an occasion, , it involves important military matters, Grand Governor, isn’t what you are doing a little out of order?”

"Rules? My dad is the biggest rule in Saibei." Before Yingtian could say anything, Jingshu spoke first.

Her tone was cold and her momentum was strong, and Deng Tong was somewhat restrained by just one sentence.

But soon, Deng Tong smiled sarcastically, seeming to be laughing at Jingshu's innocence.

"A Saibei, you really take your father seriously. Have you forgotten, who does this world belong to? It's the emperor! Not your father!" Deng Tong said in a hoarse voice.

"The world does belong to the Holy One, but the Emperor of Saibei is indeed my father." Jingshu stood up, walked to Deng Tong, and looked at him with a stern look, "In this Saibei, my father has the final say in everything. If anyone is dissatisfied, it is better to first ask the 300,000 Ying family troops if they agree."

Deng Tong looked at her, inexplicably suppressed by her aura.

He felt an indescribable fear in his heart, which made him afraid to look at Jing Shu for a while.

It was as if the person standing in front of him was not a woman with a belly slap, but someone in a high position. The innate sense of oppression made him unable to resist.

"Deng Tong, you think you are very smart and think that by helping some people to do some sneaky things behind my father's back, you are doing things for the court and the Holy One. However, how can you be sure that that person is not taking advantage of you?"

As Jing Shu spoke, he took a few steps closer to Deng Tong and whispered in his ear, "After all, everyone in the Great Xia Dynasty knows that the vassal king is just a tool sent by the imperial court to supervise the Ying family's army. Except for a few The guards Qian brought from Beijing actually have no real power in their hands, right?"

As soon as she said this, Deng Tong suddenly showed a somewhat panicked look on his face.

Jing Shu then said in a bewitching tone: "You have worked for my father through life and death. You have no merit but hard work. According to your past military achievements, as long as you tell the truth, my father will definitely let you live because of his old feelings.

"But you refuse to tell the truth... If that person is just using you, but is secretly communicating with Beirong and committing traitorous acts, what do you think the Holy Spirit will do to him and you if he finds out? Are you sure that you Is there any way to survive? As far as I know, the emperor in the palace is the most ruthless.

"Your parents were killed by the bandits, and your sister was raped and killed by the bandits. You should have killed all the bandits to avenge them, but you cooperated with the enemy who killed them? Deng Tong, think clearly, sleep at night , have you ever dreamed that your sister is asking for your life?"
