"Not only is his surname Feng, he's also Feng Siyuan's biological brother."
Feng Tao is Feng Tao after all, and he knows a lot of Feng Siyuan's secrets.
"Brothers?"
Even Zhao Lin was surprised.
He always thought that Ma Ershui was the person assigned by Feng Siyuan to do the dirty work for him, but he didn't expect that he was actually his brother.
Feng Tao even revealed this secret, and then simply said it all out:
"There were two brothers, Feng Siyuan and Feng Sicheng. Feng Siyuan studied, while Feng Sicheng practiced martial arts. Later, Feng Siyuan passed the imperial examination and was promoted to governor. Feng Sicheng, on the other hand, went out to explore the world, using the pseudonym Ma Ershui, and became a hero of the outlaws."
"When Feng Siyuan learned of Feng Sicheng's actions, he announced to the public that he had drowned and staged a fake funeral."
"From then on, Feng Sicheng completely disappeared, and there was only one Ma Ershui in the world."
This makes everything clear.
No wonder Ma Ershui refused to reveal the name of the mastermind behind the incident.
No wonder he trusted that man so much to take good care of his wife, children and the elderly.
It turns out they are brothers.
Zhao Lin asked, "Is there any evidence?"
"I don't have any." Feng Tao replied.
Seeing Zhao Lin's face darken, Feng Tao quickly said, "Feng Siyuan is very cautious. If it weren't for some things that were inconvenient for him to show up, he wouldn't even let us know about these things."
Zhao Lin nodded.
If Feng Siyuan had not been careful, he would not have become the governor.
"It seems that Feng Sicheng did a lot of dirty work for Feng Siyuan." Fu Wenqi said.
Feng Tao said carefully, "Any enemy Feng Siyuan couldn't defeat, Feng Sicheng would eliminate him for him. He would even deliberately commit crimes for Feng Siyuan to solve. That's how he got to the position of Governor smoothly. Feng Siyuan has clean hands because Feng Sicheng did all the dirty work."
"Unfortunately, there is no evidence." Fu Wenqi said.
Zhao Lin looked down at Feng Tao and said, "Is there really no evidence?"
Feng Tao pleaded with a tearful face, "Sir, I've even told you this. I definitely won't hide it from you."
Zhao Lin nodded: "What a pity, otherwise we could have closed the case directly."
Fu Wenqi remembered something and asked, "Was Feng Siyuan responsible for the Huangzhuang Village massacre?"
Feng Tao hesitated for a moment and said, "Yes. To create trouble for you, he first ordered all the officials in the yamen to resign and announced that you forced them to do it. Then he had Ma Ershui commit the massacre. You have no one to help you, so you can't solve the case. Even if you know who did it, you can't catch them. This will ruin your reputation. From now on, Feng Siyuan will have the final say in Jiujiang Province."
“Damn it!”
Fu Wenqi was furious.
In order to fight for power, they actually created such a horrific case, which is simply seeking death.
Feng Tao continued, "Not only that, but Feng Siyuan also ordered Zhu San to steal someone else's wife. However, this has nothing to do with him directly. Feng Siyuan had his subordinates create trouble, and the Changyuan County Magistrate created this incident. It's only related to Feng Siyuan's later order to Ma Ershui to send people to silence him."
Zhao Lin nodded and said, "Still no evidence?"
Feng Tao smiled bitterly: "If I had evidence, I would have said it long ago. I can only ask the lord to spare my life."
Zhao Lin said calmly, "You are quite smart. Smart people always live long. Unlike some people, who not only die of stupidity themselves, but also kill their entire family."
Feng Tao shuddered violently and said carefully, "Sir, I'm missing. Feng Siyuan must suspect that I've been captured by you. He will kill my whole family. Please help me!"
Zhao Lin said, "You can't give me anything useful, why should I save you?"
Feng Tao quickly said, "Feng Siyuan has a secret room that only he can enter. Even his wife and children are not allowed to enter. If we can get into that secret room, we will definitely find clues."
Zhao Lin said, "Alright! If you can really find a clue that can convict Feng Siyuan, I will sentence you to surrender yourself, and since you submitted the clue, you will be rewarded without any fault."
"Thank you, sir!" Feng Tao was overjoyed and kowtowed repeatedly.
"Go ahead and continue looking for someone to kill Ma Ershui. If anything happens, I will ask someone to find you." Zhao Lin said.
"Thank you for sparing my life, sir. I will definitely inform you of the news." Feng Tao kowtowed, stood up carefully, and followed the others out of a corner of the governor's office.
After walking a long way, Feng Tao sighed.
Traitors are the most hated.
But there was no way, Zhao Lin really dared to bury him.
His death was in vain.
If he disappeared, Feng Siyuan would definitely suspect that he was captured by Zhao Lin and would betray him, so he would never let his family go.
"Master, master, don't blame me. Everyone wants to live." Feng Tao said.
Following Feng Siyuan's instructions, Feng Tao found an acquaintance in the prison, stuffed a silver note into his hand, and the other party prepared a special midnight snack for Ma Ershui.
Deep in the prison.
Ma Ershui watched the prisoner who had eaten his meal fall to the ground wailing in agony and dying. He said expressionlessly, "You arranged this to blow me up."
Zhao Lin glanced at Ma Ershui with disappointment and said, "Don't worry about him. Let's find his family and send them off together."
Feng Siyuan is the governor, so even if Zhao Lin is very powerful, he cannot arrest him at will.
Zhao Lin called Feng Siyuan over and said, "Ma Ershui committed suicide by taking poison last night. The main culprit in the Huangzhuang Village case is now dead, and the case is considered closed. Lord Feng, please go there on my behalf to pay your respects and tell the victim to rest in peace."
Feng Siyuan's heart sank.
It was obvious that they were transferring him away to make things easier.
But Feng Siyuan had no way out.
Fortunately, Ma Ershui is dead and he will not be implicated.
Zhao Lin stared at him closely, as if he would beat him to death if he dared to refuse.
Feng Siyuan cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry, sir. I will see to it."
