Chapter 808: Arrest people
Zhao Ping was just about to return to the Imperial City Division to deal with official business, when a eunuch came to report: "Your Majesty, Li Ji, the secretary of Honglu Temple, asks to see you!" β
"Xuan!"
Li Ji walked into the imperial study and saluted Zhao Junsheng and Zhao Ping successively: "The ministers meet Your Majesty and the three princes!" β
Zhao Junsheng raised his hand: "Flat!" Why did Li Qing come to see me? β
"Your Majesty, Princess Mantou Dolin in Shanshan Shichen submitted a letter to Honglu Temple, saying that she will return to China in the near future, please Honglu Temple handle the relevant customs clearance documents!"
Zhao Junsheng said: "Didn't she ask for my Daqian on behalf of Shanshan King Bilong?" I haven't replied yet, why is she in a hurry to return home? β
"Your Majesty, she has been meeting Your Majesty for more than a month, and the imperial court has not given a reply for so long, maybe she has given up on it and wants to go back to Shanshan as soon as possible to send the news back to Shanshanguo!"
Zhao Junsheng thought about it for a while and said to Li Ji: "Since she wants to return to China, we can't force her to stay, let's handle the relevant customs clearance documents for her!" β
"No!"
Zhao Junsheng asked again: "How did you discuss the matter of establishing a border mutual market with the female country, how did you discuss it with the envoys of the female country?" β
"Back to Your Majesty, the general terms have been clarified, and the details of the twig are currently being discussed!"
Zhao Junsheng said to Zhao Ping: "You tell Li Qing what the envoy of the female country has done during this time, and retreat!" β
"Wait for the resignation!"
Two days later, Mantou Tuolin left Chang'an with the delegation and returned to Shanshanguo, and the spies of the Imperial City Division who monitored them followed them for a few days before returning according to Si Cheng He Yong's request.
On the day that the Shanshan delegation and his entourage left Chang'an, He Yong, the secretary of the imperial city, ordered the arrest of Nuoya, the female official of the female envoy Moma, in accordance with Zhao Ping's explanation.
A large group of more than 20 skilled soldiers and two heavily armed armor soldiers from the battle room of the Imperial City Division rushed into the mansion purchased by Moma in Chang'an City.
After receiving the report, Mama walked out of the house with his subordinates and asked in a loud voice, "I am Mama, the envoy of the female country, who are you and what are you doing here?" β
Yu Danian, the leader of the first brigade, walked up to Mo Ma and hugged his fists and said: "Yu Danian, the first team officer of the Lower Imperial City Division, has seen Mo Ma Xiao Wang!" It is reported that Xiao Wang's subordinate Nuoya was engaged in e-espionage in Chang'an City to bribe and win over our officials and spy on the secrets of our dynasty, and I was ordered to bring him back to the Imperial City Division to assist in the investigation, which was issued by the Admiral of our department! β
Moma's first reaction was that Mantou Dolin had told Qianguo that he had cheated her, but it was not right to think about it, Mantou Dolin had returned to China, and there was no need to offend her when he left.
Without waiting for Mo Ma to react, Yu Danian had already ordered: "Come on, arrest people!" Search for all suspicious places and suspicious things! β
"Yes!" The soldiers responded with a bang, and everyone except the sentry began to move quickly.
Noah tried to resist, but was forced by the armor soldiers with strong bows and crossbows, and could only be captured.
Noah was tied with ropes by the armorers, and two armorers escorted her out of the room.
Mo Ma said to Yu Danian with a cold face and a serious face: "Officer Yu, I hope you will make it clear that I am an envoy of the female country, not an ordinary person, and this is not a place where you can arrest and raid people casually!" You suspect that my people have bribed your officials and spied on your country's secrets, and please show evidence, otherwise I will definitely appeal to your emperor. β
Yu Danian clenched his fists and said: "Please also ask the envoy to calm his anger, we are acting on orders, if you have any doubts, you can ask our superiors!" β
After speaking, Yu Danian shouted to his subordinates and soldiers: "Give me all the details, don't leave a single place!" β
"Yes!"
After searching for a while, the operators and tooth owners who were responsible for leading the team came to report one by one, but they found nothing suspicious or anything suspicious.
At this time, an action officer came over and reported to Yu Danian: "Team officer, I found some books and classics, all written in words we don't know!" β
Yu Danian turned his head to look at Mo Ma and instructed his subordinates: "Take it and take a look!" β
"Yes!"
A stack of books was brought over, Yu Danian picked up a book and opened it and flipped through it, the book was really an unknown text, looking at the pen and ink handwriting seemed to be newly written, he asked: "What do you think is wrong with these books?" β
The operative replied: "Captain, if you look through it again, there are drawings in the booklet, which seem to be some kind of tool for drawing!" β
At this time, she knew that she must not make any moves, otherwise it would be difficult for her to wash away her involvement, as long as she was not arrested, everything still had room to turn around, if even she was arrested, not only would she not be able to bring back the production technology of Qianguo, but she might also be able to mess up the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries and the mutual market on the border.
Yu Danian thought for a while and ordered: "Come on, go and ask a translator who knows the female Mandarin to come over!" β
"Yes!"
It didn't take long for an old scholar in his fifties to be invited, and when he came, he was in a hurry, and the old man had beads of sweat on his forehead.
"Little old man, meet the adults!"
Yu Danian waved his hand and threw the book to the old man, "Do you know the words on it?" β
The old man took the book and looked at it, flipped through the whole book, looked up and said to Yu Danian: "This is the ancient Xiangxiong script, the adult is to find the little old man, looking for other people really don't necessarily know this kind of writing, now there are not many people who know this ancient Xiangxiong script, the little old man dares to say that the entire Chang'an City will not exceed five, and one was missing a few days ago!" β
"Tell me, what's in this book?"
"Lord Hui, it seems that this is a process of smelting metals and a method of making smelting furnaces and other smelting tools!"
Yu Danian's face changed, and he ordered: "Come on, go and find a relevant official to come over!" β
Half an hour later, a petty officer who was about to be a prisoner hurried over.
"Team officer, this is Master Wen who will be the prisoner!"
"Master Wen, I'm sorry for your trouble, I just want to invite you here to see if you know the things drawn in this book!"
This Master Wen took the book and looked at it, and his face changed when he saw the picture drawn on the book, "Isn't this the structural diagram of the steelmaking and smelting furnace?" What book is this? Huh, the Sanskrit of the codex? There is absolutely no such thing anywhere else except that I will be a prisoner, and how can it appear in this manuscript book? β
The old man standing next to him said, "My lord, this character is in Xiangxiong script, and there is still a difference between it and Sanskrit!" Looking at the ink, it should have been copied recently. And so onΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β· Wait, how is this handwriting so familiar? Although it is not written in Chinese, but in Xiangxiong, the more you look at this handwriting, the more familiar it becomes! β
Yu Danian hurriedly asked, "Uncle, what did you find?" β
The old man thought for a moment and asked, "Can the old man look through other books?" β
Yu Danian thought about it for a while and agreed: "Yes, but you have to remember that you must forget what you have read immediately, don't make trouble for yourself, and the things on this must not be transmitted to the outside!" β
"Yes, the little old man must not spread it!"
The old man picked up one book after another and kept flipping through it, and after reading five books in a row, he finally stopped at one of the pages, and he exclaimed excitedly: "Sure enough, sure enough, sure enough, it's him!" β
"What do you mean, uncle?" Yu Danian asked.
The old man took the book and sent it to Yu Danian: "My lord, look, there are a few Chinese characters on this page, this handwriting is old and old, and from this handwriting, old man knows who copied these books!" His name is Song Yanzhi, a native of Qinzhou, and a small scribe in the Ministry of Rites. Previously, Lao Yu said that there were no more than five people in Chang'an City who knew Xiangxiongwen, and one of them was him, Lao Yu and him were also old friends, a few days ago Lao Yu went to look for him, and heard his family say that he had been missing for half a month! β
"The Chinese characters on this are not deliberately left, but they are not easy to translate, and there are no words with the same meaning as these Chinese characters in the Xiangxiong text, so he can only transcribe them as they are!"
Yu Danian understood now, and he looked at Moma: "Your Excellency, what else do you have to say now?" This is the evidence, your entourage Noya will go back with us to assist in the investigation, and I will also take these books with me as evidence, if you have any questions, you can appeal to the relevant yamen! β
Mo Ma walked up to Noya and asked with a cold face, "Say, what is going on?" β
"King, it's not me, it's really not me, and I don't know where these books came from!" Noah cried.
Mo Ma breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, the action of the Imperial City Division was too sudden, she had been nervous in her heart just now, she was worried that Noya would admit that a big Noya would admit her guilt, and she didn't even have room to turn around, as long as Noya didn't admit her guilt, there was still some insufficient evidence on the Qianguo side without seizing the scene, and she could completely excuse herself from saying that someone was framing her.
Moma said to Noya: "Noah, I believe that you are innocent, someone must have framed you, you go with them first!" Remember, what to say and what not to say, you have to know in your heart! I'm going to try to get someone out of you, and you've got to hold on, you know? β
"Yes, King!"
"That's it! Someone, take it with me! Yu Danian ordered loudly, and several armor soldiers escorted Noah away. Then he ordered the books to be packed and brought back to the Imperial City Division.
The Master Wen immediately shouted: "Captain Yu and so on, these things are one of the top secrets of my great cadre, and they must not be left outside, I must bring them back to the general prison!" β
Yu Danian said with a smile: "Don't worry, Lord Wen, these books will be temporarily handed over to us to bring back to the Imperial City Division as evidence, and when the case is closed, we will definitely notify the person who came to be the prisoner to bring it back!" β
"That'Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β· All right! β
Yu Danian and the others immediately interrogated Noya after returning to the Imperial City Division, but Noya's tone was very tight, and she refused to say anything, insisting that she was framed by dirty, and there was no progress in the interrogation for three days, and the missing Song Yanzhi still had no news.
"Why, she still won't say?" Yu Danian was called to Zhao Ping's public house for questioning, and He Yong was also there.
Yu Danian shook his head.
At this time, a case-handling officer ran in to report: "Admiral, Si Cheng, team officer, just now the Jingzhao Mansion Yamen sent someone to say that they received a report that someone found a male corpse suspected of being Song Yanzhi in Yining Fang, let us send someone over to see if it is Song Yanzhi!" β
Zhao Ping, He Yong, and Yu Danian looked at each other, got up and said, "Let's go, let's go and have a look!" β
