If it were normal, Mi Fang would definitely think that these people in front of her are bird farmers.
But now...
The names of these birds are actually Wei spies!
It’s a code name!
Their identities on the surface, their missions behind the scenes, these people in front of them, every word they said shocked Mi Fang and everyone present.
Indeed, even if it is Ma Liang, even if it is Zhang Fei, even if they are prepared in advance.
But when I actually heard all this, I was still... very shocked.
Among these Wei spies, some were wine shop keepers, some were waiters, some were wine sellers, and some were jewelry sellers. Even... the most exaggerated thing was that Mi Fang recognized one. He was delivering food to the government office.
So…
According to their identities, a piece of information was sent from Jiangling to Xiangfan. With such a well-organized division of labor, the information could be delivered in just one day.
And this is not what surprises Mi Fang the most. This matter is terrifying if you think about it carefully.
Mi Fang couldn't help but think that their every move in Jiangling was all done by Cao Ren, under the nose of Cao Cao. It's no wonder that Yunchang made many northern expeditions and achieved great victories, but failed to gain an inch of territory.
With so many eyes and such dense intelligence, Guan Gong may have gained blood during the Northern Expedition to Xiangfan, but Cao Ren will never lose.
call…
Mi Fang let out a long breath, and he couldn't even recover from it. It was shocking and shocking.
Yang Yi was also shocked...
——"Are these all Wei spies? Then... the Fourth Young Master's actions yesterday were not nonsense..."
He couldn't help but murmur in his heart.
Yes, how could it be nonsense?
Even if there is no arrest warrant, urgent matters must be followed. Is this urgent enough?
Even if there is no evidence, now, these Wei spies have confessed themselves... what they did, how they passed the information to the north, what kind of information they had passed on, and how they were able to create a lie.
The scene here is incredible, yet extremely shocking.
call…
Yang Yi couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
If we say that before, he, the "examiner," had only the four words "weird behavior" in his impression of the Fourth Young Master.
So now, this "weirdness" is about to be completely replaced.
The Fourth Young Master’s appearance is really amazing!
"Ahem..."
A group of Wei spies were still explaining their crimes in detail.
gushing endlessly…
In the eyes of everyone who was getting more and more shocked, Guan Lin coughed and interrupted the words of these Wei spies.
He walked to the middle, lifted Wang Qi's arm, patted his leg, and then opened his mouth and said: "Prefect Mi also saw it. The subordinates did not use torture or beat him into submission. They all confessed voluntarily."
"Yes, yes, yes..."
"We do it voluntarily."
As soon as Guan Lin opened his mouth, these Wei spies kowtowed as if they were pounding garlic.
Don't they just do it voluntarily?
If you volunteer, there is still a way to survive... No matter what happens, your family will still have a way to survive.
If they resist, they will not be able to protect everything, and the young master will dump the "information leakage pot" on them. In this case, if the news reaches Cao Cao's ears, then his family in Yecheng will... just...
And that's not even the point.
The point is, they feel that the Fourth Young Master will definitely do this.
Especially the restaurant manager Wang Qi, he frowned and couldn't help but think back to last night...
What Guan Lin said to him after he completely collapsed and confessed everything.
——"Don't worry, there are some tough-talking people among you, but the tough-talking guy and his family will definitely die the worst."
——"On the contrary, it's you. Cao Cao will treat your family well. After one or two years, when the storm has passed, I, Cao Cao, will find a way to quietly bring your family back!"
——"As for your thoroughness, don't worry, you are all in the hands of me. I can trust you, so I won't kill you. So, you don't have anything to worry about! Just write whatever you know?"
No matter how big or small!”
This is... murderous and heartbreaking!
Just last night, these words of Guan Lin were spoken.
Wang Qi's last persistence also completely collapsed!
Surrendered, this is a kind of complete surrender from the inside out...
And under this "surrender", he tremblingly added another stroke on the bamboo slips.
——The history of Jiangling City's meritorious officials, the five officials, and the postal supervisor... were all bribed, and a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry sent by Cao Wei were hidden in his hometown.
——Intelligence transmission, the role of these three officials is very important!
Sold...sold!
Anyway, it’s already like this, everything that should be sold and everything that shouldn’t be sold has been sold!
It seems to be an echo of the twists and turns of last night's journey.
Wang Qi let out a long sigh and raised his voice: "I was originally Cao Yu, the deputy director of the Military Department of Cao Wei. I can prove that the Fourth Young Master... he never tortured us!"
"We are... we admire the character of the Fourth Young Master from the bottom of our hearts. We are abandoning darkness and turning to light. We are... abandoning evil and doing good. We are... changing evil and returning to the right path!"
This sentence came out.
Ma Liang couldn't help but murmured in a low voice. "I admire his character. Guan Yunqi really has a solution!"
Zhang Fei's eyes kept turning, but in the end they all focused on Guan Lin.
He found that the more he looked at this kid Guan Lin, the more he liked him.
Yang Yi nodded repeatedly, muttering in her heart.
——"Ma Youchang, Ma Youchang, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you. This Fourth Young Master is by no means a fool!"
On the other hand, Mi Fang's tone became stumbling, and he asked tremblingly: "Yun Qi, you...you...why did you let them recruit you?"
Isn’t this amazing?
Mi Fang loves money, so she naturally believes in ghosts and gods.
Because of this, he felt that unless Guan Lin cast some kind of spell on these Wei spies, otherwise...
"This is not important. Of course, if Mi Taishou really wants to ask, it might be because of my noble, pure character that is free from vulgar taste!"
Guan Lin waved his hand in a cool and unrestrained manner, looking very shy...
After saying this, he gave Ma Bing another wink.
Ma Bing clapped his hands, and a yamen servant presented a bamboo slip.
Many of these bamboo slips are evidence of crimes investigated by Beggar Clan disciples.
But most of them were confessed by these Wei spies on their own initiative.
It records in detail which officials were bribed?
It records every process that needs to be experienced to transport every piece of information to Xiangfan, or transport a certain person or object to Xiangfan.
This involved not only officials, but also many soldiers, horsemen, vegetable vendors... more than a hundred people from all walks of life.
Among the officials, they range from the senior officials such as Gong Cao Shi, Wu Guan Peng, and postal supervisor to the small pavilion chief and the helmsman in charge of the helm.
As the saying goes, all the bustle in the world is for benefit, and all the hustle and bustle in the world is for benefit.
Give you a lot of money and let you use your power to do a small thing...
Not to mention the ancients, even the dignitaries of later generations...there will be a lot of people flocking to it.
Mi Fang's eyes were fixed on these bamboo slips, and the expression on his cheeks was startled, as if he saw many familiar people in the bamboo slips.
Guan Lin continued with a smile: "This is all the people and evidence that Cao Wei has infiltrated into our Jingzhou. As the thief Cao's official, I, Guan Lin, am responsible for arresting the thief. This time, I am not in a hurry to arrest people." It’s too late to ask Governor Mi for an arrest warrant!”
"However, the result is good. Now the evidence is conclusive and irrefutable... As for me, the thief Cao Cao, I have done everything I should and can do. Next, it depends on my father and Prefect Mi..."
Speaking of this, Guan Lin spread his hands and said, "The list is on this bamboo slip. Do you want to arrest these people?"
After saying that, Guan Lin seemed to have finished his work report, turned around gracefully, and was about to leave.
Mi Fang wanted to shout to Guan Lin, but when the words came to her lips, she swallowed them back.
Yes, if we only consider the official position of "thief Cao Li", Guan Lin is really interesting enough and has given everything he has. He should not expect anything else.
On the other hand, Guan Lin has just taken one step...
He suddenly thought of something again and turned around quickly.
"Prefect Mi."
"It suddenly occurred to me that during the arrest of Wei spies, a lot of stolen goods were found. I thought about it. Whether it is my father or you, the prefect Mi, you still need to be kind as a person, so these stolen goods , since it was seized by this Cao Chun, it will be returned to this Cao Chun, and I will not hand it over."
Having said this, Guan Lin no longer had any nostalgia and winked at Ma Bing.
It's done, let's go...
——It’s over, just brush off your clothes and go!
However, the matter related to "money" immediately touched Mi Fang's sensitive nerve, and he couldn't hold it any longer, "Yun Qi...this money...uncle...uncle...uncle doesn't matter."
This "it doesn't matter" was said in a stumbling manner, and the words that followed were also stumbling together.
"Yes, yes, yes..." Mi Fang stumbled and said, "What if your father asks about these stolen goods? Then... how can I explain it to him?"
The implication is that since the money captured from Cao Wei, how much...how much you have to leave for the government.
Besides, your father, Guan Jiajun, is not rich either!
However, Guan Lin didn't care about this. He kept walking and shouted loudly as he walked out.
——"Tell my father, if you don't give me the child, how can he, the father, steal it openly?"
——"Also, Governor Mi, we must be kind and kind!"
After saying this, the whole house fell into silence.
Only Mi Fang's eager and eager eyes were left.
He felt...his heart ached. According to what was written in this bamboo slip, how much money would be confiscated?
...Again...it all belongs to this boy again!
Isn't this guy really good at making money?
On the other hand, Zhang Fei and Yang Yi are not sensitive to money.
Zhang Fei was cheerful, while Yang Yi was chirping and thinking in her heart.
——"This boy has some talents, and he is worthy of the name of 'rebellious boy'."
——"There is some filial piety hidden in the weird behavior, but...this filial piety is really not much!"
…
…
Over here, Guan Lin walked out of the official office.
Guan Yinping and Zhang Xingcai had been waiting here for a long time... When they saw Guan Lin going out, they hurriedly greeted him.
"Is this the end?"
Zhang Xingcai asked quickly.
She had just arrived here, and after asking the yamen of Cao Cao's office, she learned that Guan Lin had only entered not long ago, but it hadn't even been an hour yet? That was the end of it?
So fast!
"It's over." Guan Lin spread his hands, "Sister Xingcai, you are new here and don't understand the situation. Third sister knows me very well. Brother, I am busy all day. How can I have time to spend here with old guys like them?"
Busy?
Guan Yinping felt "hehe" in her heart...
Subconsciously he whispered: "Are you too busy causing trouble?"
Of course, this sentence was so soft and subtle that Zhang Xingcai did not hear it.
On the contrary, she was very interested, "So today...is there anything else interesting?"
"Yes, yes." Guan Lin rolled his eyes, but when he saw Guan Yinping, he spread his hands in a helpless manner. "It's interesting, but the two sisters can't follow me. The third sister
Yesterday, I was taught that there are differences between men and women. If my two sisters follow my younger brother, wouldn’t it be bad to spread the word?"
When he said this, Guan Lin raised his eyes and glanced sideways at Guan Yinping.
Looking back at Guan Yinping, her heart thumped, and her face suddenly turned red with embarrassment.
——"Do these fourth brothers hold grudges so much?"
——"What you said yesterday, you...can still remember it now?"
Before Guan Yinping could come to her senses, Guan Lin had already taken the step of "disowning all relatives" and was about to leave.
only…
Here, Guan Yinping and Zhang Xingcai did not follow him, but...a group of officials headed by Li Miao and a group of common people quickly surrounded Guan Lin.
Each of them was so angry that they looked like they were going to devour Guan Lin.
Guan Yinping and Zhang Xingcai looked at each other and immediately stepped forward in unison.
"Stop hurting my brother..."
Guan Yinping changed from her previous shyness in front of Guan Lin, and awe-inspiring aura emerged from her body. She protected Guan Lin with both hands. Even though she had no weapons, she still had a pair of firm fists in her delicate demeanor, which made people intimidated.
Zhang Xingcai, on the other hand, looked like she "doesn't think it's a big deal". She used the gentlest tone and the coldest words - "Will you try to take a step forward again?"
Now, let alone Li Miao and a group of officials, the people were surprised.
Guan Lin was also surprised...
——"Are these two sisters so brave?"
According to past experience, when encountering this kind of thing, Guan Lin will often shout - "My father is Guan Gong!"
Then, no one dared to take action anymore.
This time, I have two more sisters, so I don't need to borrow the name "Dad".
On the other hand, Li Miao, who was stopped on the opposite side and did not dare to take a step further, became completely angry. He stretched out his finger and pointed at Guan Lin's nose.
"Guan Lin, you have done evil and lost all conscience. You are not the son of a human being!"
"This is unfair! Huh, let's go? You still want to leave? Now that the law is clear, there is no explanation? No explanation? How can I and the righteous people in the city let you go?"
As they spoke, a group of people headed by Li Miao surrounded Guan Lin, Guan Yinping, and Zhang Xingcai.
Zhang Xingcai looked happy to see it. She rubbed her palms, as if she was eager to try and sharpen her knife.
I never forget to sigh: "Jiangling City is so fun, and we can fight again!"
Guan Yinping asked Guan Lin in a low voice, "Do you want to break out?"
Needless to say, the words of the two sisters immediately gave Guan Lin a sense of security.
For a moment, what Guan Lin realized was - it feels like having a sister without her, but it feels good to have a sister!
certainly…
Guan Lin doesn't like to use violence to solve problems.
What's more, he looked around at the people around Li Miao.
The history of Jiangling City's meritorious officials, the five sense organs, the postal governor...
There are also some local pavilion chiefs, civil servants and so on.
Many of them are old acquaintances, and they usually have some interactions with the thief Cao Yufu.
but…
their words.
——"No wonder you are making trouble with Li Miao, that's how it is!"
What is Guan Lin thinking about?
"Ahem..."
But I saw him cough lightly, then turned to Guan Yinping and Zhang Xingcai, and said with a smile: "Sisters, please calm down...Brother, I am a scholar, and we scholars will not fight against scholars..."
Having said this, Guan Lin turned to look at Li Miao, and also looked around at the group of "gentle scum", ah, no, a group of "high-ranking officials" beside him.
Immediately, Guan Lin opened his mouth with a smile.
"People from Jingzhou don't lie to people from Jingzhou. Everyone... I'll tell you from the bottom of my heart. I see that all of you are turning black. I'm afraid there will be a bloody disaster recently..."
"I advise you not to stay here and run away quickly. If you don't save everything now, you still have time... Otherwise, if you want to run away later, you won't be able to run away!"
