Chapter 400: Catch the Thief
The black shadow didn't seem to be very smart, and he was suddenly kicked down, and he didn't react for a while, he turned over suddenly, looking at the person who attacked him, and he was a little aggrieved.
Then there was not much time left for him to figure out what was going on, and the person who came out of nowhere raised a torch, and through the light of the fire, the black shadow saw clearly that it was Murong Lin, the prince of King Li.
Murong Lin seemed to have been ambushed here for a long time, his hair was messy on his head, and there were a few verdant leaves that had fallen from the trees on his bun. He stretched the torch forward, ascertaining the appearance of the dark shadow lying on the water's edge, and then hooked his lips and waved in satisfaction.
"Come out, the man has been caught."
The black shadow hurriedly tried to cover his face, but Shimoto was faster than him, and he came up and ripped off his only shield. Then when I looked back, the side was already full of people from King Li's Mansion.
"Wait a minute, I'm ......" The black shadow looked at the bad posture, and hurriedly waved his hand to defend himself, but the four books didn't give him this chance at all, and directly punched him, knocking the person unconscious and taking him away.
"Who is happy to hear you talk so much nonsense here, it is better to put it in a prison and interrogate it slowly, when the time comes, you can ask anything, come and tie him up and take him away."
Siben was particularly energetic today, first took the initiative to take down the person, and then relied on the spirit of this moment, he couldn't help but straighten his back, and in front of Murong Lin, there were many people around him, and he was very arrogant.
Everyone is his good friends who used to play, and they have the same identity, and when they saw him so proudly today, a few of them were willing to obey his orders, only staring at him with straight eyes and surprise.
Listening to the lack of reaction around him, the four came back to their senses after realizing it, and then as soon as they put down their hands, they smiled very embarrassedly at Murong Lin and everyone who wanted to laugh.
But when it comes to it, it's just a joke, and they don't care so much, and immediately came out and helped tie people up and send them to the car.
Siben touched the back of his head, and stood behind Murong Lin with a grin, waiting for everyone to almost retreat, and the corner of his eye noticed that there was something wrong with Murong Lin's eyes, and as soon as he looked up, he happened to meet him.
"Siben, you are majestic today." Murong Lin pursed his lips and only hooked a faint smile, looking like he didn't look accusatory in his momentum, but Siben had an ominous premonition in his heart, and quickly stood up straight and put his hands at his side.
"Lord forgive the sin, the little one drank more wine today, so there are some trespassers, you have a lot of adults, so don't worry about it like the little one."
"It's a good idea to drink, but you should also celebrate." Murong Lin saw him so scared, and he knew that with the temperament of Siben, even if he had the heart to climb, he didn't have that much ability.
"But this waterhole and forest are so big, how do you know that you want us to stay here, when this world first came to arrange it, it was still a little difficult."
Hearing this, Siben touched the back of his head embarrassedly, "It's nothing, we are all doing things for others, so we can probably guess a little, and fortunately, the prince is smart and has arranged people in other places, so everyone else must not be able to run." ”
In the confessions of Feng Xiaoyue and Zhang Fengyu, it was obvious that they were two people, so Murong Lin guessed that there must be more than one person who came to make trouble today.
What's more, this place is so big, it is difficult to do anything with just one fire fold. Murong Lin glanced at the sky, the stars in the sky were shining exceptionally, as if they were also congratulating him on his victory, and then he just had to wait to see how many people came, maybe there were acquaintances he knew before.
When Murong Lin and Si Ben returned to the city, they were not in a hurry to go back to sleep first, but went to the prison and counted carefully, the originally empty prison was now locked up with four or five thieves dressed in black.
Those few people didn't look very tough, as soon as they saw Murong Lin walking in front of them, they all knew it, and they were busy kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy.
But Murong Lin was the same as Siben said, he didn't care, and waved his hand in a chic way to let them all go down again.
"This son of the world is not that kind of fierce person, we have our own regulations for everything, what criminal law should be moved, what procedures should be followed, there are copywriters in the government, I won't waste my lips and tongues here, it's time to take a good rest."
After saying that, Murong Lin gently patted Hu Rihui's shoulder, who was waiting next to him. "Next, I'll use a piece of my phone. Don't let this son down. ”
"Yes, the prince walks slowly." Hu Rihui, as the county commander of the domain, although it belonged to the official position set by the emperor, was essentially dominated by the vassal king of this place.
In addition, his character is so simple, but everyone who has been in contact with him knows that he puts the interests of the people first, so in Yanwu Eleven City, in addition to Zhang Fengyu, Murong Lin's most trustworthy official is him.
Catching these suspicious people, even if he hasn't gotten accurate information yet, it's enough to make Murong Lin feel comfortable. After all, as long as you are not a fool, you can see who arranged this incident.
Murong Lin thought in his heart that maybe this matter could become a breakthrough in the transformation of the domain.
After thinking about it, Murong Lin went back to the small courtyard and said hello to Feng Xiaoyue first, so that she could rest assured.
The two rested all night, and after breakfast the next morning, Murong Lin was about to go to see what the prisoners in the prison knew about it, when he saw one of Hu Rihui's servants coming over, hurriedly handed over an envelope to the porter and left.
exchanged a look with Feng Xiaoyue, Murong Lin blinked, and told her with his eyes that she didn't need to be nervous, and the two sat in the dining room.
When the porter handed over the things, Murong Lin opened it and saw that there were several confessions full of words.
"What's going on?" Feng Xiaoyue glanced at it, and probably guessed that it should be very smooth, but she still wanted to hear Murong Lin say it in person to be relieved.
"As you guessed, this matter is indeed His Majesty's arrangement." Murong Lin said, and couldn't help laughing out loud, covering his mouth and nose with one hand, so as not to be too embarrassed in front of Feng Xiaoyue.
Feng Xiaoyue was stunned by her appearance, she was amused for a while, she was amused in her heart, and she was extremely curious about the content on it, and listening to what he said later, she understood why he reacted so much.
"But these assassins know a lot of things, not only have they explained the ins and outs of the matter, but they have even told the details of how His Majesty told Dequan in the first place, and how Dequan used his power to show off his power to the officials of the DPRK and China."
Feng Xiaoyue thought for a while, and the so-called Dequan vaguely remembered was the old eunuch she saw when she first entered the palace, standing beside Murong Si.
It is said that the emperor is not allowed to have eunuchs who have grown up from childhood to adulthood and have affection, this is really good, with Murong Si's character, there will be such a situation now. And that's to be expected.
"A little eunuch has such great power in front of the emperor and courtiers, no wonder the one who came to the ship this time is also a eunuch." Feng Xiaoyue said it, but she didn't know why it made Murong Lin want to laugh very much.
"How can we guess the emperor's thoughts? What's more, he is still such an uncertain person, the old eunuch can live by his side for so long, and naturally the courtiers who have the ability to hook also bow down to him,"
"If it is really under one person and above ten thousand, I am afraid that Your Majesty is so jealous of our domain, and it is indispensable for him to fan the flames next to him."
"But a small place can cause him to care so much, and it can only be said that he is indeed suspicious because of his weak heart, but it also shows from the side that the prince's ability is not small."
Feng Xiaoyue's first half of the sentence made Murong Lin inevitably feel a little embarrassed when he heard it, although what he said was also true, it was inevitable that he would still be a little unable to let go, and the second half of her sentence made him completely dispel his previous feelings.
"Then what are you going to do now, these people have been caught, do you plan to use the stall to fight back at the court, or send them back quietly?"
When the words landed, Murong Lin raised his head, with a faint smug and a faint puzzle in his eyes. "I thought you wouldn't ask such a question, but it turned out to be a fool of your life."
"It's still impossible to pay it back, as long as Your Majesty doesn't speak, we don't have to hand people over, and we don't have to ask the court to give us a deliberate crime of slander,"
"And according to His Majesty's habit, if his subordinates make a mistake and are arrested, it is impossible for him to claim it, so he can only keep these people in prison for a period of time."
Murong Lin's words were a little depressed and helpless, but Feng Xiaoyue could hear between the lines that he actually had other plans in his heart, and compared with a few years ago, he already had many city governments.
This is not a bad thing, at least I will not be deceived and bullied in the future, Feng Xiaoyue lowered her head, pretending not to see his action of solemnly handing over the letter to Siben.
And on the side of the palace, there was really no difference with Murong Lin's guess. The news that the assassins sent out were captured by King Li's Mansion was successfully delivered to Murong Si in one night.
Dequan stood on Murong Si's side with great anxiety in his heart, and he was afraid that he could scold his mother if he hated it. Every time Murong Si is in a bad mood, he will only lose his temper with himself, and then he will be executed at every turn, so that even a person with an indifferent temperament can't stand it.
In the dormitory, Murong Si sat barefoot, and his angry expression was clear at a glance.
