When I was forced to work overtime this afternoon, I found that Hu Yan, the black ribbon, was not there. It was official time, and Zhang Xing didn't have any extra thoughts.
When twenty or thirty people arrived in the evening, Zhang Xing, as the second person in the small group, still didn't come, so Zhang Xing couldn't help but notice this... But considering that he might be on business and might be too old to play, So I just paid attention and didn't think much about it.
But when he found out that this was a plain place, Bai Yousi was in a bad mood. Thinking about the recent turmoil and some of the things he had personally experienced that day, Zhang Xing had a guess in his mind.
Guess, if you guess right, your boss will be impressed by you, so what if you guess wrong?
In fact, Bai Yousi introduced the specific situation, but it was very different from Zhang Xing's guess.
Yang Shen conspired and was captured, but the second-in-command Li Shu escaped. It was okay because he didn't ask too many questions before, but now isn't it Zhang Wenda and Zhang Shangshu?
With the help of Zhang Shangshu, the newly established Ministry of Justice not only seized the files and prisoners of relevant cases, but also began to arrest people involved in the cases for questioning and torture. Under such circumstances, Bai Yousi's patrol team went out to patrol the East. The encounter with Li Shu became a typical handle for accountability.
But the problem doesn't end there. For Bai Yousi, an even more troublesome part is that she chose to avoid the matter because of some family calculations that day. As a result, all the relevant documents were signed by deputy inspectors, undercover agents, etc. This is what Hu Yan did.
And now that the big wave is coming, can Hu Yan not be worried?
There is no way that someone from the Ministry of Punishment will come to Jing'an Terrace tomorrow with a document and ask someone to explain the situation... What will happen then?
This is a problem for everyone.
Hu Yan was the first to bear the brunt, but Bai Yousi couldn't avoid it. Most of the patrol team present that day also had to consider it.
It's just that everyone's worries are in different directions.
"I probably understand."
Zhang Xing replied in a low voice while holding the wine. "Deputy Inspector Hu told the inspector the difficulty. If the inspector did not intervene in this matter, he would be suspected of ignoring Deputy Inspector Hu; but if he intervened, at this time, everyone would know Zhang Shangshu's ruthlessness and cruelty. Everyone knows that his real target is a high-ranking family like the Bai family... So, the inspector is worried that if he comes forward, he may really bring trouble to his family? And he is also worried that this will make Deputy Inspector Hu alienate? "
"It's not a worry." Bai Yousi, who was carrying the wine jar, shook his head slightly. "Brother Hu is already a little angry... You also know what happened that day... In this situation, how can I not let him think that I intend to use him as a rag?"
Zhang Xing held the wine bowl and remained silent, because he knew that Bai Yousi must have the opposite view. Otherwise, based on this knowledge alone, Bai Yousi should have taken over the matter long ago. Why should he do it? Ask yourself specifically?
"However, some people have advised me privately." Bai Yousi turned to look down at the lobby, which was already filled with laughter, his eyes looking a little confused and helpless. "Someone told me that if there is no skin left, there will be no hair. If there is a problem in the family, then I have all the skills, and I can only be a fugitive; and if I have to be a fugitive, how can I protect you? Where are my subordinates? It is precisely to protect the family, and then the family can protect me, so that I can protect people like Brother Hu."
Zhang Xing nodded: "So the inspection is in a dilemma?"
"Yes." Bai Yousi finally turned around, sat on the railing and looked at the young man opposite. "So I'm asking you."
Zhang Xing did not reply directly, but remained silent for a while, and Bai Yousi did not force him.
After waiting for a long time, amid the sound of dancing music, the freshly baked Zhang Sanlang suddenly drank all the wine in the bowl. Then he put down the wine bowl with one hand and wiped the corner of his mouth with the other hand: "This matter is actually very simple, but there are two things. You need to explain this to the inspector first."
"Speak." Bai Yousi raised his hand to indicate.
"I'm just doing analysis for the inspection, and the decision is made by the inspection itself."
"It's natural."
"Also, I have actually guessed the inner tendency of the inspection, but please rest assured, the inspection, the analysis I made definitely did not mean to follow the inspection's original intention and push things along." Zhang Xing continued to speak seriously. "Since the inspector asked me, he must trust my character."
The blushing Bai Yousi stared at the other person, also silent for a moment, and then nodded: "Okay."
"Actually, the idea is very simple. Sometimes, when trivial principles come into play in front of your eyes, you just need to raise your eyes." Zhang Xingyi pointed his fingers, thinking for a moment. "Inspection should be carried out in a big way!"
Bai Yousi tilted his head and thought for a moment, then quickly gave up: "Can't you be more direct?"
"That's right." Zhang Xing stopped talking and went straight to the point. "Let's look up. In the whole major case, once Deputy Inspector Hu, who is suspected of writing, is involved, his life and death will be uncontrollable... Any god above shakes out a grain of sand and falls on it. He is just a mountain, and he will probably disappear immediately. If he was randomly beaten to death at the Ministry of Punishments and tortured to the point of becoming lame, what should he do?"
Bai Yousi nodded repeatedly.
"But how could the survival of the Bai family, to put it bluntly, be decided by such a small matter as letting Li Shu go on the embankment? It's not even something that Zhang Shangshu can decide!"
Hearing this, Bai Yousi opened his mouth to speak, but Zhang Xing raised his hand to stop him.
"According to my subordinates, there are only two things that can determine the survival of the Bai family... One is how much strength the saint in Ziwei Palace can use this time and how much authority he has left. , how many families can he eradicate this time without causing public outrage? Secondly, in the eyes of the saint from Ziwei Palace, is the Bai family one of the most annoying families? "
Bai Yousi stopped there in a daze, and then suddenly glanced at the empty stairs behind him.
Zhang Xing woke up, but didn't care: "In other words, the inspection... The survival of the Bai family is far different from the fact that you shoulder the matter for Deputy Inspector Hu. The two sides have nothing to do with it... If I were to inspect, even if this time The Bai family is in danger, so we must first protect Deputy Inspector Hu, so that even if he is forced to flee the world, which is not good to say, there will still be an old subordinate from Jing'antai to help him turn around."
Bai Yousi nodded solemnly, but the next moment, he suddenly threw away the wine jar. He just stretched out his hand and pulled the man in front of him to the railing. Then he tried his best to lower his voice and said:
"Then let me ask you, do you think, except for the Yang and Li families, can the saint destroy the three families of Shangzhu Kingdom in one go? Don't worry, just say it directly."
"Why should I think so?" Zhang Xing faced his boss who was staring directly at him without fear and responded sincerely. "If I think so, of course a saint can do that... but the price is that the three places of Western Capital, Taiyuan, and Chengdu will rebel, and there will be a mutiny here in the Eastern Capital... After all, 200,000 elites will be lost. Who will lose the most? Yang Shenmou Ni, who suffered the most from the chaos in the Central Plains? The saint tried too hard to regain his face... The key is how other people feel?"
"Who are the others?" Bai Yousi seemed to have caught something.
"Of course they are the Nanya princes, including our surnamed Zhongcheng." Zhang Xing couldn't help laughing. "In fact, there is no need for the inspection to ask me. I just want to think about the Nanya princes before. They are not fools, but they have repeatedly violated the wishes of Ziwei Palace to be prudent. This is also a measure of people's hearts."
Bai Yousi nodded expressionlessly, then suddenly let go of his hand, then raised his hand and waved: "Let's go play!"
Zhang Xingqing knew that it was not easy for the powerful Inspector Bai to show a little weakness and confusion to a subordinate, but he didn't care at all about throwing away everything after use. He just walked down the stairs with Qian Tang's murderous eyes. He turned around and sat down, continuing to watch the singing and dancing.
Just when Bai Yousi's patrol team was eating, drinking and having fun, almost at the same time, on the top of the black tower on the island where Jing'an Terrace was located, Cao Lin and Cao Zhongcheng, the top leader of Jing'an Terrace, had no idea that he was being raped. People discuss.
Not only that, the Grand Master is still working hard by burning the midnight oil.
The contrast is sharp.
"The matter of the criminal is settled as it is. No need to say more. I have my own thoughts." Once Cao Lin reached the realm of the Grand Master, he returned to his original state. During the summer night, although he was not yawning or sweating, he was still a little tired. Revealed, but too lazy to use infuriating means to come out. "But what else?"
"Report to Zhongcheng."
One of the seven or eight black ribbons standing below quickly stepped forward and offered a piece of paper. "You previously ordered me to check the list of the top five armies and compare the new patrols. The results have been obtained... These are the last three names found by the subordinate, and this is the first one."
"Zhang Xingyi..." Cao Lin took the paper and opened it under the lamp with his head tilted.
"Yes, Zhang Xingyi is most consistent with this person's self-description." The black ribbon answered seriously. "I was born in Beihuang, I was twenty-three or four years old. My parents died early. I took a boat to Hebei and then joined the army in Yedu. There was a friend from Hongshan in the group, called Du Meng... It must be a mistake. He must be from Hongshan. Du Meng was right, they were also recruited at the same time in Yedu. They were the middle base army first. Before the departure, due to army quota issues, the whole team was transferred to the shooting army... The core details were all right, but because they were from a humble background, there was really nothing. Superfluous record, but when I asked him during recruitment how to get started with the Ice Qi, he once mentioned that the Demon Guards of the North might have something to do with the Seven Guards of the North."
"In that place in Beihuang, as long as there is a cultivator, is there anyone who has nothing to do with the Seven Guards of the North?" Cao Lin shook his head as he looked at the few short lines on the paper. "The Seven Guards of the North are really troublesome, but the Black Emperor... God's will is unpredictable... So, if it is Zhang Xingyi, there is no explanation?"
"Yes, it is consistent with what this person said." Hei Shou responded sincerely, and then presented another piece of paper.
"Zhang Xing? What do you mean again?"
"A scoundrel in the Western Capital. His parents died young. He is twenty-four years old. He cultivated the Ice Qi after joining the army... There is nothing much to say about this person. His foundation is clear. He is a member of the Changshui Army. The reason why he is here is really Because the names are the most similar." As he said that, Heishou presented the third piece of paper.
"Zhang Xingyan?"
After Cao Lin read it, his eyelids twitched. "Why do I feel familiar?"
"More than ten years ago, in the Gao Li and He Ruofu cases, Zhang De, one of the twenty-four generals, was implicated. He had his military power confiscated, his family property confiscated, and he was demoted to the governor of Liangzhou. A few years later, Liangzhou was invaded by the Wu clan and there was a military chaos. He died in office, and his eldest son Zhang Zhi was isolated from the rebels and suffered from illness and hunger. He had no choice but to sell his five-year-old son Zhang Xingyan, and then brought his father's bones back to Chang'an..."
"I remembered." Cao Lin held his forehead and sighed. "I remembered... if that Zhang Xingyan were alive, how old would he be?"
"It's not just that." Hei Shou continued to introduce. "Zhang Xingyan joined the army from Taiyuan and served in the army for four years. It is said that he is a calm man and pays equal attention to both civil and military affairs. He is not like the Fan family."
Cao Lin nodded: "I understand... Zhang Xingyi, Zhang Xing, Zhang Xingyan, right?"
"Yes." After Hei Shou responded, he chose to return to the column.
Cao Lin looked at the three pieces of paper on the case and hesitated for a moment, but still raised his head in confusion: "It's strange... What do you think a person can do to suddenly forget his name and experience, but still be familiar with the ways of the world and know how to understand the world? What about practicing martial arts and cultivating yourself? Did you get injured so accidentally? Or is it really a Dongyi spy who has been brainwashed?"
The black men looked at each other in confusion, and finally an experienced man raised his hands and asked seriously: "Zhongcheng, is there really a way to cleanse your brain?"
"Yes." Cao Lin replied seriously. "It is to use a secret method to seal part of the brain, and then use a secret method to unlock it when necessary. This person will naturally recall all the past... But even a great master would not be able to maintain his stability when doing this kind of thing, and it consumes a lot of energy. Big...and, I should be able to see it too."
"That's exactly the truth." Lao Cheng Hei Shou spread his hands and asked. "Is the Grand Governor of Dongyi crazy? There is a war ahead. He has spent so much effort to be a spy. With this intention, wouldn't it be better to just send hundreds of people in? And why, they We have already won the battle at Luolongtan."
"Yes!" Cao Lin sighed. "Nothing is right... After all, they are spies. After all, they are people under the guidance of Yousi. When the time comes, Yousi will explain it to me... Put it away, record it, and keep an eye on it."
Everyone nodded quickly.
