"I don't know."
Zhao Chuanchen said.
Di Feng and Li Yuanfang at the side looked at each other and shook their heads.
He was really stubborn. After such pressure, he could still clench his teeth. It seemed that he would not shed tears until he saw the coffin. It seemed that there was not much hope of getting anything out of him tonight.
On the way here, Di Feng was still confident that what he had done would absolutely guarantee that this guy would tell him everything he had done.
But now, he was a little uncertain.
Di Renjie did not have much of a reaction when he heard Zhao Chuanchen's words. Naturally, he was already mentally prepared.
" Then let me remind you," Di Renjie slowly walked to the table and sat down." A year ago, the state sent a sum of consolation money to the counties, but you didn't distribute it.”
After saying that, Di Renjie looked at Zhao Chuanchen, who was kneeling on the ground, and said,""Where did the money you didn't give to the people go?”
Zhao Chuanchen's next sentence surprised everyone.
He hesitated for a moment and said with a trembling voice,"Sir, I did keep this money for myself.”
Di Feng was instantly stunned when he heard that, but he suddenly recalled that what they wanted was not an explanation from Zhao Chuanchen, but to point out the crimes of Fang Qian and the others!
However, wouldn't this guy become the only sinner?
Had he been bribed in advance? Or did someone promise him to be the scapegoat?
But that wouldn't happen. His family was still under his control.
However, Di Feng quickly realized that Zhao Chuanchen did not know about this.
He opened his mouth, intending to threaten Zhao Chuanchen.
However, just as he took a step forward, he was stopped by Di Renjie's stern gaze.
Di Feng is immediately stunned and somewhat at a loss for a moment. He, the old man, doesn't want me to say this? Then why?
Di Renjie then said to Zhao Chuanchen,""Why did you take the money?"
Zhao Chuanchen confessed,"I know that I've committed a grave sin for embezzling such a huge sum of money. Please punish me, sir!"”
Di Renjie didn't have any unnecessary reaction. Instead, he looked at Zhao Chuanchen and said,""You, raise your head."
Zhao Chuanchen looked up at Di Renjie with regret.
"Do you know what the crime of embezzling a large sum of money from the Imperial Court is? You have to think carefully about the crime of deceiving the emperor and exterminating the three clans.”
After he finished speaking, he glanced at Di Feng. Di Feng then understood that Di Renjie had already made preparations. However, could Zhao Chuanchen really disregard his family?
If that was really the case, even if he said that he had control over his family, it would at most surprise Zhao Chuanchen.
"This is indeed my doing." Zhao Chuanchen insisted.
However, Di Renjie did not give up.”
Zhao Chuanchen nodded.”
This time, Di Feng was stunned. If it was him, he already didn't know what to do at this moment.
However, Di Renjie still had a calm expression on his face."Not to mention you, even the provincial governor doesn't have this ability. I advise you to tell the truth and not implicate your family.”
However, the situation did not change. Zhao Chuanchen insisted that it was his own doing.
Di Renjie seemed to accept this explanation for the time being. He said to Zhao Chuanchen,""There's something I have to tell you in advance. You have to think it through. You can't bear this sin alone. No matter who the person behind the scenes is or what promises they made to you, they're all fake.”
"Think about it with your pig brain. If you can be pushed out to be the scapegoat now, then when you really become the scapegoat in the future, will they care about your life or death?”
Zhao Chuanchen fell silent upon hearing this. His expression seemed a little uneasy.
Di Renjie's sharp eyes caught the change and he immediately had an idea.
"Do you know what will happen to you? Even if you were killed by the person behind the scenes, your family would be killed as well!”
Zhao Chuanchen remained silent.
But this time, Di Renjie smiled.
"Oh? You don't believe me? Alright, then let's play a game. I will help you see the truth of everything in front of you. Di Feng, arrange for him to stay in the East Flower Hall. Send guards to guard the door. No one is allowed to approach.”
Di Feng takes a step forward and says with a puzzled nod: "Yes."
After arranging Zhao Chuanchen, Di Feng slipped into Di Renjie's room and asked about his confusion.
However, Di Renjie gave him a perfunctory reply and did not mention his own plan at all. This made Di Feng very depressed, and at the same time, his heart was itching for it.
Only then did he realize that this was the gap between him and Di Renjie. This uncle of his was always so unfazed.
"Uncle, you really make me want to beat you up!”Di Feng, who is sitting at the side, says rudely in a depressed manner.
" Beat your head." Di Renjie stretched out his hand and gave him a smack." Are you being too hard on your skin?”
"Ahhh, I want to write a letter to tell my father that you abused me. Uncle, I ran around for an entire day today, went to Sanhe County, and set up a trap for Zhao Chuanchen.”
Di Feng tugged at Di Renjie's sleeve and shouted.
Di Renjie gently pushed his hand away and said softly.
"Be careful, the walls have ears."
Di Feng's heart instantly shivered as he understood.
