Zhang Juzheng has not had time to investigate in person, and secondly, this matter is not something that ordinary people can handle. So Zhang Juzheng made a bold decision, which also showed his selflessness. He told Gao Gong and Tan Yan about this matter as soon as possible, hoping that their master and apprentice would also help investigate together. The three of them thought of Qin Tai, a master of case investigation, almost at the same time, so there was the matter of Zhang Juzheng recommending Qin Tai to go to the prison of the Criminal Department. In order not to attract everyone's attention, and for the absolute secrecy of this investigation, they did not directly find Qin Tai, nor did they officially give Qin Tai any rights. It's just that he secretly gave Qin Tai a note that was almost useless. Qin Tai was asked to secretly investigate the secrets of the prison of the Criminal Department, and only when the secrets were discovered or when there was a major danger was encountered, was he allowed to launch a signal canister. At that time, foreign aid will rush to the prison of the Criminal Department as soon as possible to help Qin Tai and his wife control the situation in the prison of the Criminal Department. The note had the signatures of Gao Gong, Zhang Juzheng, and Tan Yan, which was a font that Qin Tai was familiar with, and Qin Tai fully believed this.

This signal canister was placed in a secret compartment, and this jailer was secretly left by Xu Jie back then. However, not only did this person not find any clues, but he was almost assassinated in the prison of the Criminal Department. For this reason, the jailer did not dare to stay in the prison of the Criminal Department, so he found someone who came to report once a month and did not usually go to work. But under his duty bed, there is a secret compartment in which some personal things can be hidden. After he got Zhang Juzheng's instructions, he secretly put the signal tube into the secret grid. After Qin Tai learned about it, he took the opportunity to come out, and when the jailer saw that the task was completed, he no longer came to the prison of the Criminal Department.

The commander on duty in the military department today happened to be Tan Yan, and after seeing this signal canister, he immediately ordered his troops and horses to kill the prison of the criminal department. According to the original arrangement, Gao Gong had already given Tan Yan and Zhang Juzheng a copy of the order to take over the prison of the Criminal Department in advance. If Tan Yan or Zhang Juzhengshui saw the information of the signal canister, they could use the order of the first assistant of the cabinet to go to the prison of the Criminal Department to take over the overall situation. If Gao Gong also saw it, Gao Gong would personally take people to the prison of the Criminal Department. However, Gao Gong privately told Tan Yan that it was best to send troops to take over the prison of the Criminal Department, which could not only ensure Qin Tai's safety 100%, but also ensure that the secret would not be leaked. Tan Yan took the initiative to go to the military department to be on duty, the purpose was to mobilize the soldiers on duty at any time to immediately control the prison of the criminal department.

Tan Lun's arrival confirmed one thing, the soldiers on the periphery of the prison of the Criminal Department were really a little lawless. If it weren't for the fact that Tan Yan was not only a squire of the Ministry of War, but also a cabinet official, the officers and soldiers on the periphery of the prison of the Criminal Department would not even be willing to listen to the words of the Ministry of War. Tan Yan used his identity to take over everything strongly, and for this reason, he showed the cabinet chief assistant order given by Gao Gong. Only then did these officers and soldiers be forced to hand over control in the shortest possible time, and Tan Lun's cronies took over control of the periphery of the prison of the Criminal Department.

Tan Yan didn't know the situation inside, so he had to enter the prison of the Criminal Department as soon as possible. He took a written order from Gao Gong and ordered all the people on the ground floor of the prison to open the passage down the prison of the Ministry of Punishment. Tan Lun ordered his soldiers to take weapons and rush into the prison of the Ministry of Punishment to take over the prison of the Ministry of Punishment. Anyone who dares to confront or stop is an enemy who does not obey orders, and the soldiers have the right to kill them on the spot. Tan Yan also asked the captains of each team to remember, in addition to controlling the situation, they also had to find the couple Qin Tai and Zhan Xiaoxiao. Tan Yan hinted that Qin Tai and Zhan Xiaoxiao are not only Tan Tan's personal friends, but also the people valued by Gao Gong, the first assistant of the cabinet, so everyone dare not be sloppy and look down on Qin Tai and Zhan Xiaoxiao.

Qin Tai, under the protection of his wife Zhanxiao, finally met Tan Yan. Tan Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Qin Tai and his wife safe and sound. Tan Yan was really worried about Qin Tai and his wife, and always felt that he should not use Qin Tai and his wife like this, and leave Qin Tai and Zhan Xiaoxiao in such a dangerous place and ignore them as husband and wife. Qin Tai and Zhan Xiaoxiao were able to stand in front of Tan Lun, which made Tan Lun feel a little less guilty.

Qin Tai didn't have time to chat with Tan Lun, and directly asked Tan Lun to hand over control to him. Because only Qin Tai can control the prison of the Criminal Department in the fastest time and most accurately. Tan Yan not only trusted Qin Tai very much, but also said that this matter was based on Qin Tai, so he agreed to Qin Tai's request. All the officers immediately gathered together, and Tan Yan handed over all control and command to Qin Tai. Qin Tai immediately issued a series of orders: first, gather all the rosters, count the prisoners in the prison of the Criminal Department one by one, and gather the suspected and unidentified prisoners together; second, to count the on-duty managers inside the prison of the Criminal Department, and determine the identity and position of everyone; Third, there were people guarding each floor of the cell, and no one was allowed to move around at will. Fourth, check all the accounts and materials, and strictly prohibit anyone from changing the above figures and quantities without authorization; Fifth, send a team of elites to enter the secret passage, and while searching the secret room, it is strictly forbidden for anyone to stay in the secret passage to avoid investigation; Sixth, send people to open and close all the information of the organs, and strictly prohibit the other side from taking advantage of the familiar environment to confront the officers and soldiers; Seventh, find the place where the dead bodies were slaughtered and the human flesh gruel was made, and determine the scene of this extremely powerful evidence; Eighth, keep all the food that is available, and not destroy or give it to the prisoners; Ninth, try to find the whereabouts of the child. It is said that there is a group of unidentified children in the prison of the Criminal Department, all of whom were born privately by female prisoners; Tenth, open the fifth floor, control the prisoners inside, and temporarily lock them in a separate cell to prevent these prisoners from harming themselves or harming other prisoners.

Although everyone didn't understand what Qin Tai meant, these well-trained soldiers still did it. As long as Tan Yan on one side seems to understand something, what are the extra prisoners? Who uses secret passages to evade supervision? What use of the agency to the opposing officers and soldiers? What makes gruel with human flesh? What of these gruels were given to prisoners? What female prisoners give birth to children privately, and who will be the father of these children? Is there a prisoner who has gone crazy and will hurt others or himself? In contrast, embezzlement and misappropriation of materials, over-reporting and over-occupation, taking advantage of the reputation of the prison of the Criminal Department, and secretly controlling the soldiers on the periphery are all inconspicuous and trivial things.

Just as the officers and soldiers rushed into the prison of the Criminal Department, the mysterious messenger had already issued some internal orders. First, all insiders are not allowed to talk much, and no one is allowed to tell outsiders the secrets of the organization. Second, begin to destroy all secrets that may reveal everyone's identity. Third, everyone is ready to die with the other party if they find out about the secret. Fourth, it is necessary to start attacking a few key targets to ensure that these few people are killed or controlled before the officers and men can take control of the overall situation. Fifth, find a way to contact the outside world and find your own people to rescue everyone.

But these people underestimated the speed of Qin Tai and the officers and soldiers, and with Qin Tai, a person who was familiar with the secrets of the prison of the Criminal Department, commanded the overall situation, the officers and soldiers immediately found the key. While the officers and soldiers were in control of the situation, Qin Tai had already sent his wife Zhan Xiaoxiao to take people to protect Lao Mo and the mute. Lao Mo is the person that the other party secretly pays special attention to, and the mute is the person who the other party may want to kill, so the other party will definitely target Lao Mo and the dumb. As long as the two of them are protected, the people who capture them can know their ultimate purpose and the biggest secret of the prison of the Criminal Department. This is called "waiting for the rabbit" and "leading the snake out of the hole".

While everyone was counting the number of people and supplies, many questions exposed the secrets of the prison of the Criminal Department. Seeing that things were not good, some people took the initiative to explain the problem to Tan Lun and Qin Tai, the purpose was to "redeem the merits" and save everyone's lives. Under the testimony of these people, some problems were immediately solved. At the same time, Zhan Xiaoxiao and his subordinates also captured some of the other party's people and were secretly interrogating these people.

Qin Tai led a team of soldiers to the sixth layer through the second secret passage to sort out the remains and relics of these people who had become bones. And asked everyone to find the so-called "interface" as soon as possible, and completely close this unsafe passage to the outside world. At this time, a soldier came to report that a killer had named their leader, and had already captured the leader who had tried to flee. Tan Yan did not interrogate this leader, but after Qin Tai returned, Qin Tai interrogated this opponent.

Qin Tai explained the matter here to an officer, and he returned to the first floor of the prison of the Criminal Department under the escort of several soldiers. Tan Tan stood at the door of the interrogation room and waited for Qin Tai, Qin Tai and Tan Tan patted each other, so that they had time to express everyone's concern slightly. Qin Tai is friends with Zhang Juzheng and Tan Yan, but now there have been some changes. Zhang Juzheng is becoming more and more like an older brother, caring about Qin Tai and always restraining Qin Tai's behavior, once Qin Tai is out of line, Zhang Juzheng will always criticize him. Tan Yan treats Qin Tai as his own child, not only tolerates Qin Tai, but also supports Qin Tai in some things. Therefore, Qin Tai, the little brother, is a little afraid of Zhang Juzheng, but prefers to play with Tan Yan, an "old child". Tan Lun is more majestic than Gao Gong in the eyes of outsiders, but others don't know that Tan Lun is very cute in private and often does something that makes people laugh. After this dethronement incident, Tan Yan valued Qin Tai even more, and he found that Qin Tai was really a genius in some things.

Qin Tai and Tan Yan didn't have time to chat more, so they immediately went in to interrogate this leader. While Qin Tai was interrogating the prisoners, he always felt that something was wrong in his heart. He always felt that this man would not be his opponent, at least not the master of setting traps. Qin Tai immediately thought of an answer, this so-called "leader" was nothing more than a "scapegoat" that was pushed out. The real leaders have either fled, or are fleeing. This person's purpose was to attract the attention of Qin Tai and Tan Yan, so that the real leader could leave the prison safely.

Thinking of this, Qin Tai immediately ordered a strict investigation of anyone who left the prison of the Criminal Department. Several people who tried to leave the prison were arrested, some of them wanted to leave posing as soldiers, some wanted to leave pretending to be miscellaneous servants or officials, and some wanted to leave the prison through familiar officers and soldiers. These people were all detained on the entrance and exit of the first floor of the prison of the Criminal Department under the order of strict investigation. Another jailer tried to rush out by force, but the soldiers could not stop him, and the soldiers outside shot the jailer with arrows.
