Chapter 2: The Man in the City, No Boy Section 52: Reliable Information

"Next..."

After reviewing for two or three hours, it can be regarded as a bit of a gain...

Finally, all seventeen people were tried.

Renshan looked at Mu Youzhi's face, and said tentatively, "Uncle Shi, there is still something to be gained after a night of trial." Although we mistakenly arrested six people, five businessmen who wanted to go out of Beijing to do business, one Xu Zaifu's secret agent, and one uncle's secret agent. However, we still solved four thefts and one cheating case. It's not completely useless. ”

Mu Youzhi became more and more angry tonight, and arrested these seventeen people, but none of them were related to the case of stealing saints. In particular, those merchants spent a lot of gold and silver to buy a few guards to quietly let them out of the city, but as soon as they made sense, they were arrested, and during the interrogation, they had to make decisions for them and ask for money to be returned...

What's even more ridiculous is the cheating case, it turned out to be a housekeeper of a large family in Beijing and a concubine in the house who was caught and raped by the lord in bed, the concubine was spoiled by the lord, and stayed in the house to be a maid for other ladies, and the lord said that he missed the love in the past, and spared his dog life for the time being, and left a message for him, if you want to live, get out of Kyoto as soon as possible, or find an opportunity to send him to the palace as a eunuch that day...

When Mu Youzhi was trying this person, he kept covering his little brother with his hands, thinking that they were the masters of the mansion, but they caught him in, and sent him to the Jingshi Mansion on a random charge, and sent him to the palace to be a eunuch... His mouth was full of foul language, and it was very unbearable.

That is, those four thefts, at least they can be considered cases...

"Well, although the results are not very optimistic, your fasting strategy is still very useful. Don't you notice that after starving them for a day, and now putting the food in front of them, not only saves them from the pain of flesh and skin, but also easily makes them tell the truth of the matter? If we can use this method to try cases, and if we do not use the criminal law indiscriminately, there will be many fewer unjust, false and wrongly decided cases. Li Chengjie was not surprised by this result, after all, the person to be arrested was a thief. I just wanted Mu Youzhi to find something to play with and pass the time. At this time, his words, for Mu Youzhi, are equivalent to a spring breeze, and his mood suddenly improves.

In fact, he didn't expect to catch the thief, he just wanted to find some clues about the thief.

After all, he knew very well when he would be able to catch him if the thief had been hiding in secret. The master asked the senior brother to catch the thief in three days, and the bag was empty.

Mu Youzhi's actions are, firstly, to cover for his senior brother Li Chengjie, and deliberately muddy the waters, so that his senior brother has the opportunity to fish in troubled waters. He always believed that the senior brother must have made arrangements in advance. However, this result is still a bit uncomfortable at this time. However, hearing the senior brother praise his fasting interrogation method, Mu Youzhi suddenly felt as if there was nothing to be sad about.

When accepting the results, be sure to think about what you are setting out for. If you didn't think about success at the beginning, then when failure really came to you, you shouldn't be disappointed, because you didn't pay at all, why should you succeed!

"Master, uncle, this day has passed, and there is still no clue about this holy robbery case, how do you say this is good?" asked Renshan worriedly at this time.

Renshan knew that if this case of stealing the saint could not be concluded well, he would definitely be taught a very cruel lesson...

"Apprentice, although you have not gained much today, you should not underestimate your master. Li Chengjie thought about it and felt that he should tell them.

"Senior brother, do you have a clue? Mu Youzhi asked. Thinking back that I have been separated from my senior brother for a long time today, there should be a new clue.

"Master, have you found anything?" asked Renshan innocently.

"Well, I can only say that I have received reliable information so far, this thief saint has not stolen in the palace at all recently, and he has not done anything illegal..." One is that their own identities are amazing, and the other is that their hidden identities should be a secret after all, and it is inconvenient to tell people.

"What, the thief didn't commit a crime?" asked Mu Youzhi.

"Master, where did you get your reliable information?" asked Renshan very vigilantly.

Renshan thought, this time the theft of the holy case, there are only a few people who know the truth, and they are all people who know the truth about the closure of the city. How did his master know that the thief did not steal, could it be that his master actually had eyeliner around His Majesty the Emperor?

Renshan thought like this. I think of my ancestor, that gentleman. After remembering that his master had dinner and left, he said that he was going back to the house to find Master Yuan. And now you know the secrets. I thought of the question of the old man of the Yuan Mansion in the morning... He really felt that this Yuan Mansion was really unfathomable, just like the royal palace outside the palace walls.

"Well, I can't say the source now, because the person who gave me this news has a lot of background. I've promised to keep it a secret for them. Li Chengjie didn't answer anyone's questions, and cut off their questions in one sentence.

"They?" said this sentence very seriously. That said, the source is not alone. The person in the palace who dares to spread this news must really be from a small background! At least he is a person who is not afraid of angering Tianyan, and there is more than one!

After a night of interrogation, Renshan felt as if he was watching a play, and he had been messing around with his uncle. But when he heard his master's words, he was really in a trance, and his eyes were red. The brain is buzzing...

"Then, are we still arresting the thief?" Mu Youzhi asked a question that Renshan was very concerned about now. Since his master already knew that the thief had not committed the crime, would he still be willing to help him arrest him?

"Catch, you have to catch. Under the whole world, it is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's ministers; and if the courtiers are ordered to arrest the saints, they must be arrested. Perhaps His Majesty the Emperor may need to summon the thief saint to make it clear, and the situation is urgent before he makes this decision to close the city. Li Chengjie has actually been thinking about the hidden things behind this lockdown for a long time.

"I guess that His Majesty the Emperor just wants to use this method to lure the thief to meet him empty, or to have a private conversation about confidential matters. It's not about really catching the thieves. After all, the chivalrous deeds that the thieves usually do can be spread in the streets and alleys, and they can be spread by storytellers in the market. It means that His Majesty tolerates the act of stealing saints to a certain extent. Therefore, the arrest of the thief saint this time should not be really arrested. Li Chengjie patted Renshan on the shoulder and said, signaling him to rest assured, they will come up with a solution together.

"Senior brother, do you think it will be, it is Your Majesty who is in a hurry to obey the power and urgently close Kyoto, there are other reasons, and the arrest of the thief is only to calm the hearts of the people. Could it be that there are soldiers coming?" Mu Youzhi felt as if he had understood something extraordinary, and said in a panic.

"What you say may be true, but it is impossible for soldiers to attack. Now that our army is strong and strong, how can the young people outside the country dare to set foot in the country? They are all in the land outside the country, just trying to survive. The first emperor beat them and would not resist anymore. And they are also incapable of resisting. Li Chengjie's words are very positive. This is to have a full understanding of the country in which you are located, and firm confidence. The current imperial court is definitely the strongest dynasty in history. There are the most soldiers, the most refined martial arts, the most extensive land, and the politics are harmonious, and no one will come to offend.

"What about the princes in the territory?" Mu Youzhi was also relieved when he heard his senior brother say so surely, but he still wanted to ask, is the country he is in, this court, really invincible?

"Today, Your Majesty has won the hearts of the people by lightly conscripting labor, reducing taxes, and giving land to the people to cultivate. The Lord is peaceful, will defend the country, seek development, and win the hearts of the military. You must know that all those who want to be soldiers think most about fighting the enemy in war, and when there is no war, what they want most is to defend their homeland! If you think about it, the people should not obey the army, who can oppose Your Majesty's rule? Who dares to oppose it? Although the princes can support the army, their soldiers are always His Majesty's people. Your Majesty loves the people like a son, and everyone in the world loves Your Majesty like the sky, why do you want to follow others to a road of no return?" Li Chengjie's words were very heroic. He believes that His Majesty today is a saint, although every dynasty and every generation cannot put an end to corruption, and there are also some villains who have obtained the emperor's favor through slander. But Li Chengjie always believes that His Majesty has the people in his heart, and even if such an emperor occasionally makes a wrong decision, he is definitely not a faint king. The emperor has traitors around him, but he is just blindsided, and he needs righteous people to come forward, dare to commit the following crimes, regardless of his own future, and give advice to help His Majesty set things right and revive the dynasty.

Renshan listened to his master's remarks, and deeply felt that his master was not only outstanding in martial arts, but also this knowledge, this courage, and this enthusiasm for the court, if the court lost such a person, it would definitely be a loss to the court!
