To take a step back, this edict is mainly aimed at high-ranking officials in the DPRK. Those people with status represent the face of the court when they go out, but they often go to brothels. What kind of behavior is this?
As for Xu Guangliang's ninth-grade inspection, it doesn't hurt to go there a few times now and then, just keep a low profile...
Yuan Bin immediately said angrily: "Don't you know that the imperial court has issued an edict? How dare you know the law and break it?"
"Yes, yes...it's wrong to be humble..."
Xu Guangliang was submissive and trembling all over.
Yuan Bin's eyes flashed and he said in a deep voice: "Is there anything else you want to explain?"
Xu Guangliang was stunned for a moment, and then said with a grimace: "I have always fulfilled my humble duties faithfully, and I have never done anything that violates the law...except for staying in prostitution..."
Zhu Qizhen was a little impatient with waiting, so he winked at Yuan Bin.
Yuan Bin understood, kicked Xu Guangliang on the ground again, and said: "I have checked your details, and since you have done some credit, I will not pursue the matter of being a prostitute for the time being, but you can't go there again in the future!"
Xu Guangliang was overjoyed and said: "Please command to reassure the Lord that I will never return to my humble position again!"
Yuan Bin was too lazy to talk to him about this kind of thing, so he got to the point immediately: "Okay, let me ask you, are the people captured by Atulu two days ago being held here?"
Xu Guangliang was a little surprised. He didn't expect that a few horse thieves could attract the attention of Jin Yiwei.
Moreover, the dignified commander personally came to ask questions.
Could it be that there is some serious secret behind these people?
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a cold sweat break out on his back and said: "The signatures and deposits have been signed and transferred to Erkhun City at noon today."
Yuan Bin quickly asked: "Have you set off yet?"
"I've been gone for half an hour."
"Send people to chase them back. I, the commander, have something to ask them!"
"Yes, I will arrange it right now!"
Xu Guangliang hurriedly ordered people to catch up. The police officer in front was escorting the prisoner. He walked slowly and did not go far in half an hour. He was quickly chased back.
During this period, Yuan Bin and Zhu Qizhen had already read the testimony transcribed by the Inspection Department.
These people are very straightforward and do whatever they ask. They have a feeling of "I can't survive anyway, just kill me."
The Inspection Department handled the case, which was considered a great achievement. Who would have thought of asking other questions and hastily closed the case.
According to the testimony, Yuan Bin quickly found a small leader among these people, named Ta Riduqin. According to his own account, he was originally a centurion under Chaka, and he also knew some Chinese.
Soon, Xu Guangliang brought the man over and asked, "Sir, do you need torture tools?"
Yuan Bin frowned and asked, "What do you need a torture device for?"
Xu Guangliang was a little speechless. Of course he was tortured, was it to look good?
"Okay, you go down!"
"This... is a humble job for you, sir..."
"You are not needed here, send someone to guard outside and don't allow anyone to come in!"
Xu Guangliang thought to himself that there must be some confidential case, so he should leave to avoid getting into any trouble.
"I am personally guarding the outside. Please don't worry, sir. Not even a fly can come in!"
In the interrogation room, only Yuan Bin, Zhu Qizhen, and Ta Riduqin were left.
Ta Riduqin looked at the two people in front of him and felt very annoyed. He babbled a lot in Mongolian.
Although Zhu Qizhen didn't understand, seeing the impatient look on the other party's face, he could guess that he was almost inseparable. In other words, I have already confessed, so why should I still interrogate him?
"Can you understand Chinese?"
Ta Riduqin first snorted helplessly, and then said in blunt Chinese: "I understand, but not much."
"Okay, let me ask you a few questions."
"I have already said that if I fall into your hands, I will kill you if you want. What's the use of asking so many questions?"
Zhu Qizhen smiled faintly and said, "Are you asking for death?"
After Ta Riduqin heard this, the look of helplessness in his eyes became even more obvious.
"Our home is gone, and I have had enough of life. Give me a break!"
"Your home?"
Zhu Qizhen nodded, and then said: "Yes, this used to be your home, but if you had just been grazing in your own home, would the results be like this?"
Ta Riduqin frowned and said, "What exactly do you want to say?"
"I won't offend anyone unless they offend me. If someone offends me, I must kill him!"
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Ta Riduqin suddenly laughed. He looked up at Zhu Qizhen and said slowly: "You called us back just because you want to humiliate us in person again? Well, you are awesome, can you send me on my way now?
"
Zhu Qizhen didn't want to waste too much time on this issue, so he said: "I called you back today because there are some things I didn't ask clearly."
"Anything else to ask!"
Ta Riduqin still looked impatient and said: "Our home is gone, we have no food, so we have to come and rob, and you caught me. I admit it, that's it!"
Zhu Qizhen asked: "I heard people say that those who did not want to join the Ming Dynasty, but chose to be horse thieves, it seems that you are not the only one?"
Ta Riduqin frowned and asked, "Are you talking about those people in Zhuoligetu?"
"Who is Zoligatu?"
"He is just a coward, a coward. What exactly do you want to ask? After you finish asking, send me on my way!"
Zhu Qizhen smiled lightly and said, "Do you really want to die that much?"
"Do I still have a way to survive?"
"Who said no?"
"What did you say?"
Ta Ri Duqin's expression was very strange. The look of death that he had just seen suddenly disappeared without a trace, and was replaced by a look of disbelief.
He looked down upon death because he knew that he was bound to die.
Now I was suddenly told that there was still hope of survival...
Why die if you can live?
Zhu Qizhen said slowly: "You will answer whatever I ask you now. If you are willing to cooperate, I can spare your life!"
The expression on Ta Riduqin's face was very strange. After struggling for a long time, he said, "Ask me!"
"Who is the Zhuoligetu you just mentioned?"
"He is just a coward. He only dares to steal but not to rob."
It seems that in their eyes, thieves who steal things are looked down upon, while thieves who dare to rob become heroes.
Zhu Qizhen thought for a while and changed his question: "You come out to plunder, which means you have run out of food, right?"
"yes!"
There was no burden in Ta Riduqin's heart, so he answered simply.
"Since your situation is so serious, why is there no movement from others? As for the Zhuoligetu you just mentioned, where are their people?"
"They should have surrendered to Tuo Tuo Bu Hua and obtained food and supplies. They don't need to risk their lives to steal for the time being."
"oh?"
Zhu Qizhen's eyes lit up and he said, "Tell me in detail!"
After going around in a big circle, it finally appeared!
