Mr. Yang didn't expect it either.

He confessed so straightforwardly, but the two people opposite him could easily see that there was something hidden in the case.

They even tried to get him to confess and recruit more accomplices to bury him with him.

It was originally a serious crime to punish the nine tribes, but Mr. Yang didn't even think about begging for mercy.

All loyalty to the emperor and patriotism are all false.

If he was truly loyal to the emperor and patriotic, how could he possibly give information to the enemy?

Since his family is going to die for his crimes anyway, he might as well keep his mouth shut.

In this way, after their family dies, at least there will be someone to collect their bodies, so that their bodies will not be exposed in the wilderness after death.

But Zhao Ce's suggestion that the prince might be kind enough to leave a descendant of his family's blood made Mr. Yang's heart tremble.

No matter who collects the corpses of his family, it is better for a blood descendant to collect the corpses for them and continue the family's incense!

He is bound to die, and everyone in the family will be implicated by him.

If he can leave a descendant of blood, then he will not be extinct!

At this moment, Mr. Yang's heart was violently moved.

After listening to Zhao Ce's words, he looked at Zhu Houzhao with hope.

Zhu Houzhao guessed Zhao Ce's intention when he just sang double act with Zhao Ce.

What Mr. Yang committed was an unforgivable crime. As for the verdict, Zhu Houzhao originally did not want to get involved.

After all, he is not familiar with the law, and these are decisions that will be made by the person who is reviewing the case later.

But since Zhao Ce said so, regardless of whether he could help at that time, he still had to agree first.

Zhu Houzhao took advantage of the situation and said: "It depends on whether what you explain is worthy of this golden mouth."

Mr. Yang's face softened a little, but he was obviously still struggling.

Seeing that he was still hesitating, Zhao Ce said calmly: "Master Yang, do you still want to think about it?"

"The prince is kind-hearted and gave you a chance."

"But His Royal Highness, the Prince, has many things to do every day, and he doesn't have much time for you to think things through."

"Anyway, it's just a matter of military pay. Even if you don't tell them, the imperial court will definitely find out as long as they order an investigation."

"If you don't want this opportunity, then that's it."

After Zhao Ce finished speaking, he wanted someone to escort him away.

Master Yang suddenly panicked.

He quickly said: "Wait a minute, wait a minute!"

"Your Highness, Lord Marquis, the guilty minister has something to say!"

This person kept saying it over and over again, and Zhu Houzhao became a little impatient.

He clicked his tongue and said, "If you want to explain, just do so."

"I am the Lord of the East Palace. Personally interrogating you, a small border official, is your greatest opportunity!"

"As a guilty person, if you don't want to seize this opportunity, then I don't need to continue talking nonsense with you!"

Master Yang knew that this was also his last chance.

He could only say honestly: "Your Highness, all the guilty officials have spoken."

"I just hope that Your Highness can leave a queen for the sinner's family."

Mr. Yang no longer concealed anything, but honestly told the hidden truth.

"The guilty minister has been taking care of baggage transportation and other matters in the frontier, but his salary is really not enough to support his family and his subordinates."

"With no choice but to do so, the guilty minister could only cooperate with some merchants privately and help them make private deals with the Mongols."

"Having been operating in the frontier for many years, the criminal's family also made some money..."

Speaking of this, Mr. Yang's voice started to choke.

What's the use of making more money?

When a person dies, there is nothing.

"The reason why the guilty officials leaked the information to the Mongols was the matter of baggage transportation."

"Actually..."

"Actually, it's because the amount of baggage transported by the imperial court does not match the amount!"

Said it before.

Materials issued by the imperial court.

Everywhere you go, a part is missing.

Military pay is no exception.

After being transported down from level to level, some were transported to eat and drink on the way out, and some were greedy from various places.

When the things arrived at Mr. Yang's side, the quantity was already wrong.

He also has to keep some of it privately.

Of course, these are not reserved for himself.

The people at the bottom who handle things are actually at the bottom and get the smallest share.

Most of them have to be turned in.

They have been doing this kind of thing for many years.

The court also knew about this, but there was no good way to stop it.

Imperial envoys were sent here one by one, and people were dealt with one by one.

But it can't be managed at all.

These greedy things will always make some mistakes in their accounts.

There were more and more mistakes, so from time to time they would sell some information to the Tatars and let them rob a batch of imperial supplies.

The baggage that was robbed may only be a little bit of food.

But the numbers reported missing can be compiled by them.

If you do this every once in a while, your accounts will always be in balance.

Even if the imperial envoy came to check the accounts, they would not be able to find any problems.

This time, it happened to be Mr. Yang's turn in this position to do this.

People who have done these things before have basically never had any accidents.

But Mr. Yang is unlucky.

The first time I did it, I met the prince on a private patrol and repelled the Tatar army that came to grab supplies.

After Mr. Yang finished speaking, Zhu Houzhao took a breath of air.

"As an official of the imperial court, how dare you do such a shocking thing!"

"Is it because of your greed that you want to give away the Ming Dynasty's baggage to others, and even give the lives of the sergeants who transported the baggage to the enemy to be harvested by them?"

If it weren't for Zhu Houzhao and Zhao Ce this time, many people in the transport team would have been killed or injured.

After taking the things, you must also take a few heads back to perform military exploits.

The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty could die on the battlefield in order to protect the territory.

But this kind of sacrificing one's own sergeant's life to the enemy can only be described as heartbreaking!

With this approach, no wonder Mr. Yang didn't dare to speak out just now.

It really makes people angry when they hear it.

Mr. Yang lowered his head, not daring to look at anyone's face at all.

If you fight, people will definitely die.

Is there a day when no one dies in the frontier?

To them, the dead are just numbers now.

"I know that my crime deserves death..."

Zhu Houzhao glared at him angrily, wanting the man to be pulled out and executed immediately.

Zhu Hui's expression on the side was unclear, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

And Zhao Ce also said after silence, "Bring Mr. Yang a pen and paper."

"Write down everything you know about the people involved in this matter."

"Master Yang."

Zhao Ce stared at him and said, "If there is any fraud or deliberate revenge, you know the consequences."

For a person like Mr. Yang who is bound to die, it is too easy to attract people who are usually against him or dislike him before he dies.

Although the court would not believe the list he wrote, sometimes it is easy to be led astray!

Master Yang nodded dejectedly.
Chapter completed!
