After hearing Xu Xianchun's question, the room instantly became quiet.
Several people looked at Zhao Wuji, wanting to see what he would say.
The reason is very simple. What Zao Wou-Ki says determines everyone's attitude.
Whether Zhao Wuji will expose the truth directly or continue to conceal it is crucial for everyone.
At this point, Zhao Wuji no longer had any confidence in his heart.
The Jinyiwei came this time with serious intentions. His life was in their hands, so there was really no room for negotiation.
Zhao Wuji said directly: "He is the steward of Duke Wei, his name is Xu Boyi."
After hearing this, Xu Xianchun was not surprised, but just nodded slightly.
In reality, Xu Xianchun already knew a lot. The Jinyiwei had already reported the information to him, and he knew it all. Now all he had to do was get these people to confess.
Now, Zhao Wuji has betrayed Xu Boyi, which is a good start.
After Zhao Wuji gave out Xu Boyi, the atmosphere in the room relaxed instead, and several people felt relieved.
This made them understand, and the fear disappeared. It was obvious that Xu Xianchun and the others were putting pressure on them, and at this point, they had no choice but to speak out.
Nodding with satisfaction, Xu Xianchun continued, "So what brought you here? What were you discussing just now? Tell me everything in detail."
Zhao Wuji naturally didn't dare to hide it anymore at this time. Since he had already said it, he told Xu Xianchun everything like pouring beans out of a bamboo tube.
What they came here for and how they negotiated were all explained clearly.
After Zhao Wuji finished speaking, Xu Xianchun said directly to the Jinyiwei who was responsible for recording behind him: "Have them sign and seal."
Zhao Wuji and others all signed and sealed the agreement, then stepped aside, looking at Xu Xianchun anxiously, wanting to see what Xu Xianchun was going to do.
At this time, Zhao Wuji and the others had no confidence at all and were at the mercy of others.
Xu Xianchun put away the confession, glanced at Xu Boyi who was lying on the ground, and waved to his men.
The two Jinyiwei retreated and took away the cloth from Xu Boyi's mouth so that he could speak.
At this time, Xu Boyi's face was ashen. He knew that things were bad because his own Weiguo Mansion was implicated.
In fact, the reason why Xu Boyi was so tough was not only because he was confident, but also because he did not want to involve the Duke of Wei. Because if the Duke of Wei was not involved, even if something happened to him, his family would be well taken care of.
But now it’s gone, all of that is gone.
Xu Boyi raised his head and looked at Zhao Wuji angrily without saying anything.
Xu Boyi had accepted his fate and was not going to speak again. He wanted to fight for a way out for his family. This matter was not something he could decide. These Jinyiwei had already pushed the matter to a higher level.
As for himself, Xu Boyi no longer cared. No matter what the outcome was, he had no way of running away.
The Duke of Wei must be fine. The emperor will not punish him for this matter. Otherwise, he will definitely become a scapegoat.
Therefore, if you don't open your mouth and don't bite randomly, there will be no problem; once you open your mouth and bite, things will be troublesome.
Xu Boyi thought very clearly about this matter. He couldn't speak. If he had to speak, there would be no way out.
Xu Xianchun glanced at Xu Boyi, who looked ready to die, and a sneer appeared on his face.
Xu Xianchun knew in his heart that this kind of person was difficult to interrogate because Xu Boyi would not speak for the sake of his family. Even using torture would not be easy.
Xu Xianchun had no intention of torturing Xu Boyi because it was useless and there was no need to waste time.
Moreover, some things don't even require a confession. Is there any need for evidence when working for the emperor?
Xu Xianchun ordered the people around him: "Arrest them all and give me a copy of their confessions."
Naturally, the subordinates did not dare to delay and quickly handed the prepared confession to Xu Xianchun.
Xu Boyi and others were taken away. They would be imprisoned quietly in Lichunyuan and would not even be taken out to ensure that the news would not leak out.
In this case, the rest of the things will be easy to handle.
After arranging everything, Xu Xianchun came next door.
Looking at Chen Hong standing outside the door, Xu Xianchun quickly said, "Greetings, Eunuch Chen."
Originally, the two of them could be said to have had a pleasant cooperation, but since the last incident, their relationship has become much more distant.
No one expected that Xu Xianchun could actually make a comeback, including Chen Hong.
However, things are different now. Xu Xianchun still has the emperor's favor, and so does Chen Hong. Although the meeting was a little awkward, the two of them still showed a very harmonious side on the surface.
After all, they were all His Majesty's men, so they couldn't quarrel outside. Furthermore, they were in a period of cooperation, so even if they did anything, it would be done behind their backs.
Chen Hong smiled and said, "Is it done?"
Although there was some dirty stuff between Chen Hong and Xu Xianchun, it was far from hatred.
Xu Xianchun was too embarrassed to blame Chen Hong. It was obvious that the incident was his own problem, so he was much more polite in his attitude.
Chen Hong also knew that although this matter seemed very difficult, it also depended on who would handle it. In Xu Xianchun's hands, such a matter would not be a problem at all.
