"There is an assassin! Protect the car!" Wang Chengen shouted with a sharp voice, and at the same time blocking Chongzhen with his own body. Liu Tieniu pointed at Chongzhen and pulled the trigger, but only a sound of flint hitting. The flint and the iron sheets were rubbing out flames, but there was no movement in the medicine pool, let alone the fires emitted from the muzzle. He pulled the trigger again, and it was still the same, only the bolt made a "click" sound.

"The bullet is here!" Zhang Shuheng stood up, bounced his left hand away, and pinched two bullets with his palm.

"Ah!" Liu Tieniu shouted, and a sharp short knife appeared from his sleeve. The poisonous short knife flashed with a faint blue and cold light, stabbed Chongzhen, but saw Li Guodong pulling out his sword and knocking off the short knife in his hand with one sword.

Wang Fuchen and Cao Bianjiao rushed up from left and right, kicking Liu Tieniu over. The two powerful generals pressed him to the ground tightly, and no matter how hard he struggled, it would be useless. Seeing that the assassination failed, Liu Tieniu struggled to open his mouth and wanted to bite his collar. However, Zhang Shuheng walked up with a quick step forward, pinched Liu Tieniu's chin, pulled off his chin, and then tore off his highly poisonous collar.

Seeing the sudden change, Zheng Yuanxun and Yang Xianming were so scared that they were trembling all over. Nonsense, the assassination happened in Zheng Yuanxun's film garden. If such a big thing happened, can their heads still be kept?

"Your Majesty, please spare me! Your Majesty, please spare me! The criminal (slave) really doesn't know about this." Zheng Yuanxun and Yang Xianming knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly.

Zhang Shuheng's face leaned against Liu Tieniu and sneered, "Do you think you are doing it perfectly? Look at your sneaky look, I have actually suspected you for a long time! We have long discovered the musket hidden in the food box and removed the bullets. Don't worry, when you go to Zhaozhu, you will let you explain everything you know!"

After saying that, Zhang Shuheng stood up: "Come on! Take this bold assassin down!"

Wang Chengen also shouted in a sharp voice: "No one is allowed to leave here tonight! No one is allowed to leave here until this matter is found out!"

Groups of Jinyiwei and Dongchang Fanzi immediately surrounded him and surrounded the hall tightly.

Zheng Yuanxun knelt on the ground and begged: "Your Majesty, the criminal really doesn't know anything."

"Hmph! It was you who invited me to the banquet, and the assassin appeared in your mansion again. You actually said that you didn't know anything? Is it reasonable?" Chongzhen snorted coldly.

Several Jinyiwei came up, took off Zheng Yuanxun's official hat, took off his robe, and then put handcuffs and shackles on him. The one who was waiting for Zheng Yuanxun was Jinyiwei Zhaozhuo. Even if the matter was found to have nothing to do with him in the end, his family would have to pay a lot of money to settle the matter, and it was probably about to lose everything.

Yang Xianming also took the Jinyiwei down. When he turned to look at Wang Chengen, Wang Chengen turned his head and said to the Jinyiwei and the Dongchang manga: "Monkey boys, serve our family well this ungrateful evil slave!"

This time, Yang Xianming was determined to die. After all, he was an eunuch. Wang Chengen could make him die with just one word, and he didn't need to be tried by the Jinyiwei.

Shi Kefa sighed: "If such a big thing happens, I don't know how many people are going to be unlucky."

He knew that Chongzhen had wanted to search the house long ago, and someone tried to assassinate him at this time. Wasn't he just sleepy and sent him to the pillow? This time, Yangzhou was about to bring blood and storm.

Cao Huachun brought the One Thousand Jinyiwei and Five Hundred East Factory Fanzi to the Film Park to welcome Chongzhen's return boat.

Chongzhen took Cao Huachun, Li Guodong and others to leave the theater. He was escorted by a group of Dongchang men, Jinyiwei and elite soldiers of the Huai Army, leaving Zhang Shuheng, Wang Chengen and others to deal with the assassin case here.

The luxurious film garden was already in chaos. The Jinyiwei rushed out of the house with men, women and young men of the Zheng family. If he walked slowly, he would whip up with a whip. Many Jinyiwei also entered the room and rummaged through the cabinets and collected boxes of gold, silver and treasures.

Zheng Yuanxun, Yang Xianming and others were directly taken down, and a group of salt merchants were also taken down by the Jinyiwei. Although Shi Kefa, Qian Qianyi, Zhang Guowei, Zhang Shenyan and Huang Degong were not taken away by the Jinyiwei, they were also at the scene at the time of the incident, so they could not leave for the time being. Zhang Shuheng and Wang Chengen stayed to drink with them and handed over the interrogation to their men.

A firewood room in the film garden became the temporary interrogation room of the Jinyiwei. After the assassin Liu Tieniu was taken to the interrogation room, he was wearing inhuman screams. The screams under the night sky were terrifying.

About an hour later, Zhang Shuheng's number one thug, Xu Liang, walked out with a whip, and the whip covered with minced meat, couldn't stop dripping blood.

"How is it? Have you asked?" Zhang Shuheng asked.

Xu Liang shook his head: "This kid is very hard. He first gave him an appetizer (whipped). He also shouted, saying it was too light and tickled him. Then he brushed him and played the pipa. The kid refused to speak. Now he is wearing mourning clothes and mourning, and it will take a few days to achieve the effect."

Zhang Shuheng said: "Then let's examine the two thieves Zheng Yuanxun and Yang Xianming first, but I guess they shouldn't know much about these two people. After all, they have a greater relationship with Shanxi salt merchants at this time. Just let them spit more money for these two dogs."

"Wang Dusi, Yang Xianming, this dog slave, our family gave him the fat man from the Salt Prison. He must have been a lot of greedy over the years. He used the coolest torture to ask him to give up all the money." Wang Chengen spoke.

"Please rest assured, Eunuch Wang, the official must let him spit out all the money he has greedy for the past six years." Xu Liang complimented.

A scream rang out in the interrogation room again. Not long after, Xu Liang walked out: "Eunuch Wang, Zhang Dusi, Yang Xianming has confessed. He is willing to use all the money to buy him a life, and Zheng Yuanxun is also willing to use all his money to buy his nine tribes' lives."

"That's fine. Now the key is to examine the assassin, let him speak as soon as possible and ask the mastermind behind the scenes to confess it." Zhang Shuheng said.

Next, the Jinyiwei and Dongchang Fanzi asked Shi Kefa, Qian Qianyi and others about some things. Anyway, this matter would not be suspected to these officials. The Jinyiwei asked some questions and released them all.

After the Jinyiwei copied Zheng Yuanxun's film garden, he escorted people and drove a cart full of gold, silver and treasures back to the canal. Before leaving, he put a seal on the film garden. The assassin Liu Tieniu was also taken away by the Jinyiwei.

In the next three days, Xu Liang focused on interrogating the assassin. After three days and three nights of hard work, within three days, the light was on in front of the prisoner's eyes, and he supported his eyelids with a toothpick to hold him to sleep. Three days later, he tore open the cloth wrapped around his body and peeled off a large piece of flesh. In this way, the assassin refused to confess. In the end, Xu Liang had no choice but to use water torture. Liu Tieniu, who was fearless in life and death, could not support a series of tortures and confessed everything he knew.

"Emperor, the assassin confessed. He was the assassin found by the Yan family of Shanxi salt merchants. The mastermind behind it is Chen Zhilin and Chen Mingxia, and half of the salt merchants in Shanxi." Wang Chengen happily reported the interrogation results to Chongzhen.

"Chen Mingxia? But the guy who claimed to organize a righteous man to come to Beijing to serve the king last time in Linqing?" Chongzhen asked.

"The emperor is wise, it's this person! This person has defected to Jiannu." Wang Chengen replied.

Chongzhen said angrily: "Isn't this person who claims to be loyal and righteous? Why did he turn to Jiannu and become a traitor?"

"What these scholars say is just like farts. Can they believe their words?" Li Guodong sneered.

Chongzhen said: "Chen Mingxia has joined Jiannu, and we can't catch him. Let the Jinyiwei arrest Chen Zhilin immediately!"
