The explanation really makes people doubt it."

Huizong asked Wan Zeng with a sullen face: "Wan Zeng, why did you close the city gate in advance? Are you really colluding with those bandits?"

"No, Your Majesty, I really did not collude with the bandits. Please tell me clearly." Wan Zeng said with tears in his eyes.

"Then why did you close the city gate in advance to prevent Wenshan from leaving the city to rescue people?"

"My lord, my lord, my lord..."

Wan Zeng couldn't think of a reasonable reason, but he didn't dare to tell Cai Jing, and he was so anxious that he was sweating.

But the more he behaved like this, the more suspicious he became. Even Huizong really believed that he had colluded with the bandits and said angrily: "Wan Zeng, you are so brave. You dare to collude with the bandits. You really deserve to be punished."

Die. If you don't do it truthfully, I'll drag him out and chop him up immediately."

Wan Zeng was so frightened that he almost flew away. He fell on the ground and cried: "Your Majesty, I really did not collude with the gangsters, really not."

"Then why do you want to close the city gate in advance and why do you want to prevent Wenshan from leaving the city to save people?" Huizong asked sharply.

"That's because, because..." Wan Zeng didn't dare to say the words.

Because he knew that if he confessed Cai Jing, he would not only lose his backer, but he would also be suppressed, and everything he had now would be lost.

Therefore, even though the words came to my lips several times, I didn’t dare to say them out loud.

"Why, why didn't you say it?" Huizong's voice became colder and colder.

Hua Ju also took the opportunity to say: "Your Majesty, he has a guilty conscience, that's why he didn't dare to say it. Before Yi Chen, since he was stubborn, there was nothing to ask, so just cut him down."

Huizong shouted coldly and asked: "Wan Zeng, if you don't say anything anymore, I will have you dragged out and chopped up immediately."

Wan Zeng's face turned pale with fright, and he said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, minister, minister..."

Seeing that he still refused to say anything, Huizong's patience was worn out and he shouted to the imperial guard: "Someone is here, drag him out and chop him up."

The imperial guard stepped forward and dragged Wan Zeng out. Wan Zeng was frightened and shouted: "Your Majesty, it was Grand Master Cai who asked me to close the city gate. I am acting on Grand Master Cai's order."
