Chapter 259 King Ning interrogates Zhong Shu
"Yes, Prince. After circulating the Condor Heroes Mercenary Group, the case was settled, and the treasury could be more fulfilled. It would kill two birds with one stone." The elite soldier's small leader was also on the court at this time and reported his duties.
King Ning glanced at the two of them and felt that they were extremely annoying and troublesome. He just pretended to be angry, and they took it seriously?
The one who planned everything was not Xie Zhiming, nor was the Condor Mercenary Group. It was just that they were unlucky and became scapegoats.
"Forget it, let the Ministry of Revenue send someone to search the house. Also, please ask the head of the people to handle the case impartially. Those mercenaries should be killed and punished. I am tired, so go down." King Ning waved his hand.
Ye Lin bowed and retreated. The elite soldier's little leader also surrendered.
Shortly after the two left, King Ning stood up with the table. The eunuch behind him hurriedly asked, "Where is the prince going?"
King Ning paused for a moment and said, "I went to Tianzhu to examine Zhongshu for the first time. You don't have to follow me. In addition, how are you preparing for the throne ceremony? Send someone to the Ministry of Rites to ask."
He could no longer wait.
The Heavenly Prison is naturally damp and dark, because there is no sunshine all year round, and it is filled with a smell of mold that cannot be dissipated.
King Ning stopped outside the cell and ordered someone to open the lock.
Zhong Shu inside heard the sound and looked up. When he saw that it was King Ning, he was so excited that he burst into tears.
King Ning didn't want to be involved by him, so he quickly signaled him to calm down with his eyes. Then, he ordered the prisoners: "Go away and don't disturb me from the judgement of people."
The prisoners hesitated and did what they did after all, but before leaving, they also reminded Ning Wang to be careful of the prisoners.
After confirming that no one eavesdropped, Ning Wang walked into the cell and said in a reproachful tone: "What's wrong with you? Why did it fall into King Jing's hands? Do you know that I was almost caught off guard by King Jing's killing!"
Zhong Shu was also ashamed and explained: "Prince! This is all designed by King Yu! King Yu is very cunning, so the prince must be more careful about him."
These words made King Ning faint, "Isn't it King Jing? What's wrong with King Guan Yu?"
Zhong Shu calmed down, sorted out his thoughts, and said, "That day after leaving the Ning Prince's Mansion, I was besieged by King Yu's men. I was outnumbered and captured. King Yu had long suspected the real cause of the death of the late emperor and was constantly investigating. He forced me to ask me to explain the organization behind it!"
King Ning's eyes cooled down, "What have you said?"
Zhong Shu was startled by his eyes and said quickly: "I will never give up. Later, with the hatred between King Yu and the Condor Heroes, he pushed everything to Xie Zhiming. Unexpectedly, King Yu believed it on the surface, but in a blink of an eye he threw me to King Jing's mansion."
"What you said is true?" Ning Wang was half-believing and half-doubting.
If Zhong Shu betrayed the organization and revealed his affairs, he would definitely dismantle Zhong Shu.
Zhong Shu quickly waved his hand: "What I said is true. The prince wants to believe me, I have not betrayed the organization!"
King Ning did not express his opinion, but said, "So, King Yu and Xie Zhiming have a deep hatred. He threw you to the Prince's Mansion, just to make things worse, and then legitimately use the court's hands to wipe out the Condor Heroes Mercenary Group?"
"That's right!" Zhong Shu nodded like pounding garlic.
After hearing this, Ning Wang asked suspiciously: "Are you... the military advisor of the Condor Mercenary Group? Or the member of the organization?"
He knew too little, and the organization was too mysterious, and it was like a mountain that kept pressing on his head. At this time, King Ning's mind was filled with mud and his thoughts were already confused.
"Of course I am a member of the organization! I will have the identity of the military advisor of the Condor Mercenary Group. The organization needs me to do things and put me in!" Zhong Shu explained.
Ning Wang asked again: "So you went to Xie Zhiming's undercover agent? So, what task has the organization assigned to you?"
After asking this, Zhong Shu showed a look of embarrassment.
Strictly speaking, he and Wang Ning are both members of the organization, and are colleagues, not superiors or subordinates. Wang Ning asks about things that have nothing to do with him, and he has the right not to answer.
"If you don't say it, how can I believe you?" Ning Wang threatened with a sharp expression: "Since it's not trustworthy, why don't you kill you directly! When the organization asks, I believe that the organization you betrayed, I believe they will not blame me."
When Zhong Shu heard that King Ning wanted to kill him, he was no longer tough. No matter how important the secret is, it is not as important as his own life.
"At first I said that the Condor Mercenary Group was strong and was preparing to develop into a vassal of the organization to expand the organization's open power. Last year, I finally got the line, but Xie Jian didn't get what the organization wanted and he was dead. Later, I spent a lot of spitting and encouraged Xie Zhiming to find a backer to avenge Xie Jian, and then completed the task. I thought the organization would transfer me back, but I sent me a new task and asked me to find something from Xie Zhiming!"
Ning Wang asked: "What?"
Zhong Shu shook his head: "I really don't know this. The organization only said that the time was right and he would notify me and ask me to continue undercover."
From Zhong Shu's urgent explanation, King Ning believed it some 70% or 80% of it.
"By the way, you said just now that King Yu has been investigating, is he about to find out the organization?"
