Chapter 79
Zhao Huai's answer was just a cold snort, and he turned his face away. The person who moved the things came back soon. This time, beyond Zhao Huai's expectations, what Lu Heng asked to move was actually two wooden chairs.
Jin Yiwei put the seat next to Zhao Huai, Zhao Huai saw it with a surprised and suspicious expression on his face: "Lu Heng, what tricks are you going to play?"
"Master Zhao, don't be nervous." Lu Heng held the back of the other chair with one hand and pulled it in front of Zhao Huai with ease, saying, "Master Zhao is a proud person, and naturally he disdains corruption and bribery. I'm here tonight. , I just want to catch up with Master Zhao."
reminisce? Zhao Huai can't believe it. Anyone could be soft-hearted and sympathetic, but Lu Heng would never do anything unprofitable. Zhao Huai stared at Lu Heng closely, trying to judge his true intentions. Lu Heng wasn't annoyed by being scrutinized with such eyes, just smiled at Zhao Huai and pointed to the seat opposite.
"Master Zhao, sit down."
Zhao Huai thought to himself that he was a third-grade servant, a student of Lord Shoufu. No matter how arrogant Lu Heng was, would he dare to offend Shoufu? After Zhao Huai thought about it, Da Ma Jindao sat on the wooden chair and looked at Lu Heng arrogantly: "Tell me, what tricks do you have."
Lu Heng just smiled and said, "Without him, I just want to ask Master Zhao a few questions. However, it's not me."
After speaking, he turned around and looked at Wang Yanqing quietly: "Qingqing, Master Zhao is ready."
Lu Heng suddenly spoke in another direction, and Zhao Huai turned around, only to realize that there were other people in the cell. Wang Yanqing took off his hood, greeted Zhao Huai with a blessing, and walked slowly to the seat: "Mr. Zhao, the people's daughter is taking the liberty."
When Zhao Huai saw that it turned out to be a woman, he was startled at first, and then became furious. He stood up angrily and scolded: "Lu Heng, what do you mean? This official is the official third-rank official of the imperial court. Are you despising this official and the imperial court by asking a woman to ask questions?"
Lu Heng patted Wang Yanqing on the shoulder, and after giving her the home court, he turned around and left without saying a word. Zhao Huai became more and more angry when he saw that Lu Heng had completely ignored him. Wang Yanqing was not frightened by Zhao Huai's anger, but she remained calm and gentle, and said, "Master Zhao, the people's daughter is not disrespectful to you, but she has long admired Master Zhao's reputation and wanted to have a few words with Master Zhao. If Master Zhao is not corrupt, Why don't you dare to be invited?"
When Zhao Huai heard this, he sneered, he was not a young man like Liang Bin who had no experience in the world, his mind had already been tempered in the officialdom to be mature and mature, and he would not be trapped by Wang Yanqing's aggressive methods: "What kind of person are you, what qualifications do you require? Chief?"
Wang Yanqing took the initiative to sit down in the chair, made an inviting gesture to Zhao Huai, and said, "Of course I don't dare to offend Mr. Zhao. I promise on behalf of Commander Lu that I will only ask ten questions and leave after asking them. Continue to pester the adults. If Lord Zhao is unwilling, you may not answer."
Lu Heng stood outside the prison door with his arms folded. Hearing this, he did not speak. Guo Tao's expression changed, and he tried to stop it, but Lu Heng raised his hand slightly to stop him.
Wang Yanqing made a guarantee for Jin Yiwei on his own initiative. Zhao Huai heard ten questions asked by a woman. After asking, even if there is no answer, he will not be punished. He sneered in his heart, and sat across from the chair with rare cooperation.
Wang Yanqing hooked her lips and smiled, but did not refute. Her eyes were calm, but her mind was engrossed in capturing the fluctuations on his face, not letting go of the slightest change: "The first question, Mr. Zhao, Zhang Yong sent money to ask you to do things, you accepted it, didn't you?"
Zhao Huai's face showed obvious disdain and indignation, and he reprimanded: "It's nonsense, this official has a clear conscience and has a clean heart, how could you do such a thing?"
However, Wang Yanqing stared at his face and said, "You took it. Second question, you hid the gold and silver at home, didn't you?"
Zhao Huai glared angrily and stared at Wang Yanqing coldly: "Ridiculous. Do you know what the crime should be for falsely accusing the court officials?"
"Sure enough, I'm at home." Wang Yanqing glanced over Zhao Huai's face and asked, "The third one, is it in the garden?"
Zhao Huai stopped talking, holding his head high, with an expression of no comment. However, Wang Yanqing got the answer from the smile that flashed from the corner of his mouth. He was secretly delighted, indicating that this direction was completely wrong.
Wang Yanqing stared at Zhao Huai, Zhao Huai also had a proud face, and the two faced each other faintly. It didn't take long for the cell to be quiet, and Wang Yanqing's unhurried voice sounded again: "Fourth, do you often open those things for aftertaste?"
Zhao Huai rolled his eyes in disdain, as if mocking them for losing. Guo Tao was a little anxious. What the hell is wrong with this woman? Four questions have been passed, and not a single key point has been asked. It's a waste of opportunity!
There was a faint commotion outside the cell, and Lu Heng glanced behind him, signaling them to be quiet. Then, he turned back and looked at Wang Yanqing intently and seriously. As if he didn't know that this was an occasion that was related to his career or even his life, there was still only Wang Yanqing in his eyes.
Wang Yanqing noticed that Zhao Huai's pupils were dilated and the skin on his face turned white. Even though he was showing the victory, the freezing reaction on Zhao Huai's body told her that she was right again. The four consecutive questions have helped Wang Yanqing to narrow down the scope greatly. She calmed down and tried one by one: "In your bedroom?"
Zhao Huai didn't answer, Wang Yanqing looked at his face and asked, "In the study?"
Zhao Huai's face was tense and expressionless, but he swallowed slightly. Wang Yanqing stared at him for a while, got up without saying a word, and walked quickly outside the cell. Lu Heng stood outside the door with arms in his arms, glanced at Zhao Huai with a smile, turned around and strode out, and commanded firmly, "Take someone to search his study."
