Prime Minister's Mansion.

Prime Minister Yuan Bo returned to the mansion with a serious expression on his face, and sat in the hall to calm down his fluctuating mood.

Prime Minister Yuan Bo never expected that Cui Yongyuan, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, and the others were ransacked and exterminated by Dongchang, and Dongchang found out because of Taishi Wenzhong's death in the four northwest prefectures.

Moreover, the Cui family of Boling was found.

This is troublesome.

If the members of the Boling Cui family could not stop the power of the court and involved them all, then they would probably be suppressed by the order of the palace just like the Boling Cui family.

"Damn it."

"How did the people from the East Factory find out about the Cui family in Boling?"

"The people of Boling Cui's family are too careless."

Prime Minister Yuan Bo thought with a gloomy face, he had already reminded Cui Yongyuan, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, that the Cui family must be cleaned up from head to toe.

What I am afraid of is that the person in the palace will find out some clues.

Unexpectedly, something went wrong in the end, and the person in the palace found out about Cui's family.

However, these are not what Prime Minister Yuan Bo should consider now, what Prime Minister Yuan Bo should consider now is how to deal with the next situation.

If the Cui family of Boling really involved them, what should they do?

That's the main thing.

"master."

At this time, the butler walked in with a hurried expression.

When Prime Minister Yuan Bo saw the butler coming in, he immediately looked up at the butler; "How is it?"

"Has the matter been settled?" Prime Minister Yuan Bo asked anxiously.

"Master, don't worry, the matter has been settled." The housekeeper nodded and said in a low voice.

Upon hearing this, Prime Minister Yuan Bo heaved a sigh of relief.

It's good when things are done.

In this way, the immediate crisis has been resolved, and the next thing to consider is the Boling Cui family.

"Where are people?"

"Leaving no trace,

What an accident! "

Prime Minister Yuan Bo glanced at the housekeeper and asked again.

The housekeeper shook his head; "No, the person has already dealt with it, without leaving any traces, even if Dongchang wanted to investigate, they would not be able to find anything."

"That's good."

Prime Minister Yuan Bo then nodded in reassurance, and said to the butler, "Immediately send a letter back to the clan about the matter of the Cui family in Boling, so that the clan can be careful."

It was such a big deal that the Cui family of Boling was ransacked and exterminated by someone in the palace, Prime Minister Yuan Bo had to inform the family immediately.

Let the family take precautions.

As soon as Prime Minister Yuan Bo finished speaking, a black shadow appeared in the hall.

"Sir, there is urgent news."

As Hei Ying spoke, he handed a small note in his hand to Prime Minister Yuan Bo.

"Urgent news?"

Upon hearing this, Prime Minister Yuan Bo immediately took the small note from Hei Ying's hand, opened it and glanced at it.

There was only one sentence on the note.

But it was this short sentence that caused Prime Minister Yuan Bo to lose his usual composure and stood up directly.

"The Cui family of Boling has been destroyed by the Shenwuwei army led by Lu Bu."

What?

Has the Cui family of Boling been wiped out by Lu Bu's army?

Seeing these words, Prime Minister Yuan Bo's face changed, and he couldn't believe what was written on the note.

The Cui family of Boling had already been wiped out by Lu Bu's Shenwuwei army.

How can this be?

The one in the palace just made an order, how could the Cui family of Boling be killed all at once?

For a moment, Prime Minister Yuan Bo seemed to think of something.

It seems that the man in the palace had already issued a secret decree to Lv Bu, asking Lv Bu to lead the army of Shenwuwei to destroy the Cui family of Boling.

Going up this morning is just a formality.

What a great way.

The one in the palace actually lied to everyone.

Prime Minister Yuan Bo thought with an ugly face.

Prime Minister Yuan Bo did not expect that the Cui family in Boling would be wiped out by Lu Bu leading the army of Shenwuwei in this way.

It was a bit of a shock.

How to put it, the Cui family of Boling is one of the seven great families of the Great Zhou. Although it is not as good as the Yuan family of Prime Minister Yuan Bo, it is also deeply rooted in the Great Zhou and cannot be underestimated.

How could Lu Bu be killed so easily!

Prime Minister Yuan Bo's eyes flickered gloomyly.

Now that the Cui family of Boling was killed by Lu Bu, did the Cui family of Boling tell Lu Bu any news?

Or did Lu Bu pry something useful out of the mouths of Bolingcui's family?

Thinking of this, Prime Minister Yuan Bo immediately said to Hei Ying; "I'll have someone investigate it right away. I want to know whether all the members of the Cui family in Boling were killed by Lu Bu."

"Also, has anyone from the Bolingcui family said anything that shouldn't be said?"

"Check it out."

This is what Prime Minister Yuan Bo is most concerned about and also most worried about.

If the members of the Bolingcui family had told Lu Bu any news, or if Lu Bu had opened the mouth of the Bolingcui family, it would be troublesome.

Hearing the words, Hei Ying immediately bowed and said, "Yes."

...

Hall of Mental Cultivation.

When the prime minister's residence received the news that the Cui family in Boling had been wiped out by Lu Bu's army, Zhou Chen also received it.

Sitting on the dragon chair, Zhou Chen looked at the news that Cao Zhengchun had just handed over in his hand, and the corners of his mouth curled up.

Zhou Chen was always worried about whether Lu Bu could successfully exterminate the nine clans of the Cui family in Boling!

After all, a first-class wealthy family like the Boling Cui family is not simple, with a deep foundation and many private soldiers.

If there is a slight difference, it may cause a big chaos.

However, fortunately, everything was going well for Lu Bu, so Zhou Chen could breathe a sigh of relief.

Zhou Chen put down the news in his hand, and looked up at Cao Zhengchun; "Lu Bu has already destroyed the Cui family of Boling, but he got nothing."

"Where are you?"

"What was the result of the interrogation?"

"Can Cui Yongyuan have an explanation?"

Zhou Chen looked at Cao Zhengchun and asked.

Cao Zhengchun immediately said; "Report to the emperor, Cui Yongyuan's mouth is very tight, and he hasn't spoken yet."

"However, under the torture of Dongchang, it shouldn't last long."

"But those other people know nothing about the Cui family's murder of the Grand Master, they just interrogated some other things about the Cui family."

"Please take a look, Your Majesty."

Cao Zhengchun took out a copy of the interrogation record and sent it to Zhou Chen.

Under the torture of Dongchang, no one can persevere.

Opening up is just a matter of time.

Sooner or later.

Zhou Chen took the interrogation record from Cao Zhengchun's hand, glanced at it slightly, without much interest.

Now, the Cui family in Boling has been wiped out by Lu Bu, and it doesn't make much sense to interrogate these things of the Cui family.

At this time, an internal guard walked in, quietly came to Cao Zhengchun's side, and whispered something in Cao Zhengchun's ear.

After the factory guard finished speaking, Cao Zhengchun's face suddenly darkened.

"What's wrong?"

"What happened?"

Cao Zhengchun's strange changes did not escape Zhou Chen's perception.

Zhou Chen put down the interrogation record in his hand, glanced at Cao Zhengchun and asked.

"Reporting to the emperor, the factory guard just came to report that Cui Yongyuan and those officials who were arrested are dead."

"Dead in Dongchang Prison."

Cao Zhengchun hesitated for a moment, and said carefully.

"oh?"

"Cui Yongyuan and those officials who were arrested are dead?"

"They all died in the prison in Dongchang?"

When Zhou Chen heard it, he was obviously stunned for a moment, feeling a little surprised.

"How did you die?"

"Is the torture excessive, or did someone break into your Dongchang prison?"

Zhou Chen frowned and asked.

"Back to the emperor, it should not be excessive torture."

"The factory guard is not clear about the specific situation."

Cao Zhengchun said boldly, feeling a little guilty.

In the majestic Dongchang Prison, the felon in custody died, and the factory guard didn't know the specific situation.

It's unbelievable.

"The factory guard doesn't know either?"

Zhou Chen frowned even tighter, looked up at Cao Zhengchun and said, "It's really not easy for someone to kill someone in your Dongchang prison without anyone noticing it!"

"Let's deal with it!"

"Let's see what's going on."

Zhou Chen said calmly to Cao Zhengchun.

It's not that the torture was excessive, it can only be that someone killed Cui Yongyuan and those officials.

Zhou Chen was a little surprised that someone could kill someone in the prison of Dongchang without anyone noticing it, and even the factory guard didn't know what was going on.

The factory guards were signed by Zhou Chen, and Zhou Chen never doubted their loyalty.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Cao Zhengchun responded, turned around and left the Hall of Mental Cultivation with a gloomy face.

...

East Factory.

In a cell.

Cao Zhengchun looked at a bruised corpse in front of him with an extremely gloomy expression.

This corpse was none other than that of Cui Yongyuan, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry.

Now, Cui Yongyuan is too dead. The wounds all over his body show that Cui Yongyuan was tortured before him.

On the surface, it seemed that the injuries were too serious to die, but in fact, these scars all over the body were not fatal enough.

Cao Zhengchun glanced at the scars on Cui Yongyuan's body, and then swept towards the several factory guards behind him.

"Tell the miscellaneous family, what's going on?"

"How can a person die when he is locked in a prison?"

"These injuries are not fatal, but the person died. You tell the miscellaneous family, what happened?"

Cao Zhengchun said softly.

"Master, we don't know what's going on."

"By the time we find out, the person is already dead."

A factory guard said aloud.

"That's right! The factory owner, apart from us, no outsiders have ever entered."

Another factory guard said aloud.

"Trash, what do you mean is that the punishment was excessive to death."

"Look at the injuries on his body. They are not fatal at all. It is obvious that someone killed him."

"You don't know anything."

"bump."

With a wave of Cao Zhengchun's hand, several factory guards were swept away, fell to the ground, and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Master, please forgive me, everything the subordinates said is true."

"Really no outsiders have entered, they are all from the factory."

Several factory guards got up and said in a hurry.

They all know the factory owner's temper, which is murderous.

If they explain clearly, they will have to stay in this cell for the rest of their lives today.

"Are you sure no outsiders have entered?"

Cao Zhengchun looked at several factory guards and asked.

"Sure."

"Master, we are sure no outsiders have entered."

Several factory guards immediately affirmed that they have been stationed all the time, except for the people in the factory, no outsiders have really entered.

If outsiders had entered, they could not have known.

Hearing the words of several factory guards, Cao Zhengchun frowned involuntarily.

Has no outsider entered?

How can this be?

With Cao Zhengchun's eyesight, it is natural to see that Cui Yongyuan's death was not caused by his injuries.

It was obvious that someone took advantage of Cui Yongyuan's serious injuries and took the opportunity to kill Cui Yongyuan.

Although it was done very cleverly, it couldn't be hidden from Cao Zhengchun's eyes.

But Cao Zhengchun also believed that it was impossible for these factory guards to deceive him.

Besides, there are so many factory guards in the East Factory. If an outsider really enters, it is impossible not to know.

But now, all this can't be explained at all!

Even if a half-step heavenly man enters the Dongchang garrison and kills Cui Yongyuan and more than a dozen of them at the same time, it is impossible not to be discovered by the factory guards.

"Think about it carefully and see if there are any omissions."

Cao Zhengchun did not believe that no outsider had entered.

If no outsiders have ever entered, then only their insiders.

But this is even more impossible. Like him, these factory guards are all loyal to the emperor, so it is impossible to do such a thing.

Cao Zhengchun kept thinking in his heart.

Thinking about all kinds of possibilities, but in the end Cao Zhengchun ruled them out.

Several factory guards thought about Cao Zhengchun's words carefully.

After a while.

One of the factory guards thought of something, and immediately said to Cao Zhengchun; "Master, I remembered that something was wrong with the three commanders yesterday. After returning to the station, he seemed a little strange to the station."

"I asked him why he went out, but he didn't know the way!"

Another factory guard seemed to have thought of something, and said immediately; "Yes, it is the Third Commander. The Third Commander personally interrogated the prisoner yesterday. He behaved very strangely. It seems that he doesn't know our colleagues."

After the two factory guards said, Cao Zhengchun's eyes immediately flashed a bright light.

I understand what's going on.

This is someone Li Daitao sneaking into the Dongchang resident stiffly!

No wonder the factory guards in the resident said that no outsiders entered, so the problem lies here.

"What a good way!"

"It's really good to dare Li to replace Tao and act recklessly in our East Factory."

A fierce light flashed in Cao Zhengchun's eyes, and he glanced coldly at the several factory guards in front of him, "You are such useless people, people don't even know that Li Daitao sneaked in stiffly."

"Hurry up and let the miscellaneous family check it."

"Let's see who dares to sneak into our East Factory and kill people with such audacity."

Cao Zhengchun said gloomyly.

His majestic Dongchang resident, Dongchang's lair actually let people sneak in quietly, it's really damn.

"Yes, Mr. Factory."

Several factory guards quickly took orders, got up and left quickly.

This was a good opportunity to take the blame and do meritorious service, otherwise, they were really afraid that Cao Zhengchun would kill them with one blow.

After several factory guards left, Cao Zhengchun snorted coldly with a gloomy face.

"snort."

"The Dongchang who dared to come to Zajia was presumptuous, and even killed the members of the Zajia. No matter who you are, the Zajia will definitely let you experience the torture of Dongchang."

Cao Zhengchun muttered to himself, then turned and walked out of the cell.
