After thoroughly grasping the evidence of the Ma family's crimes, the governor Wei Yan rubbed his hands here.
The meaning is obvious.
That's because I did something so beautifully. Are you going to reward me with something?
Xu Yunyan looked at the statement handed over by Wei Yan and said directly.
"It's better to bother the governor and the imperial court and leave it to the Ministry of Punishment to deal with them. We can finalize the case for these people. We really don't have the power to take life or death. The Ministry of Punishment still has to make the final decision on what kind of criminal law will be used against them."
Wei Yan nodded hurriedly, "I understand, then I will submit a letter now."
Not getting any benefits from Xu Yunyan, Wei Yang was a little reluctant and just about to leave, Xu Yunyan shouted from behind.
"My Lord Governor, please do your best to serve Your Majesty sincerely. When I leave, I will write a letter to Your Majesty to express your gratitude to Your Majesty and show your contribution to this imperial mission."
Xu Yunyan's words made Wei Yan jump three feet high.
"Thank you so much, Your Majesty the Imperial Envoy!"
Wei Yan was so happy that he walked out of the hall where Xu Yunyan was. Xu Yunyan couldn't help but pull out a smile when he looked at Wei Yan leaving.
As long as you work hard, I won't hold you back even if you make a small mistake.
After muttering to himself, Xu Yunyan turned around and looked to the side.
"Come out."
As Xu Yunyan finished speaking, the Xuanwumen soldiers who had been trained by Pei Ji's intelligence agency Xu Yunyan walked out of the shadows in embarrassment and knelt down on one knee in front of Xu Yunyan.
"General, I am so incompetent that I couldn't find the secret way for Boss Ma to leave the city."
"Isn't this simple? Boss Ma has been caught. We only need to interrogate him and we will find out, right?"
"That's what we thought. If we really can't find it, we'll go interrogate him. But I want to come here to consult the general. Is there any simple way for us to find these secret passages to prevent mishaps in the future if these secret passages are not found? , causing us unexpected losses?"
Xu Yunyan looked at him and nodded with satisfaction, "Not bad, since you can think of this, very good, very good, then I will teach you a way, the simplest way, to see if some of the wells along the city wall are dry wells. Or are they? Is there a hole in the well wall?"
When Xu Yunyan said this, he couldn't close the conversation. After Xu Yunyan's mouth went dry, the original subordinate who was kneeling in front of him was now looking at Xu Yunyan with gleaming eyes. I don't feel that I am tired of kneeling here, but I keep nodding.
After Xu Yunyan finished speaking, he waved his hand, "Okay, I've told you what I know. If there's nothing else, you can go down."
It was just that Xu Yunyan sent this man away, and this man really wanted to leave, but he suddenly stood up and staggered, fell to the ground with a plop, and couldn't stand up anymore.
Xu Yunyan's face was dark, "Look at you, the blood in your body that has been kneeling and squatting here all day has stopped flowing. Come on, let me press on you first."
This frightened this person. When he was at Xuanwu Gate, he used to press on others, but for some reason he made them feel sore all over. He might not be able to walk in a few days.
As if remembering the terrible days dominated by fear, the soldier hurriedly rolled and crawled on the ground and ran out of the hall where Xu Yunyan was, which made Xu Yunyan's face darker.
"Am I that terrible?"
But now that there are ways to deal with all troublesome things, just when Xu Yunyan was about to relax, Jiang Fangguo suddenly rushed in from the door in a hurry.
"Sir, something bad is happening!"
"Something bad happened? What's going on? Can't I just have some leisure time?"
Xu Yunyan looked at Jiang Fangguo who rushed in a little speechlessly, but since he said it was a big deal, something must have happened.
It really corresponds to that sentence, where disaster lies, and misfortune lies where blessing lies. Whether it is a blessing or a curse, who can say clearly?
Seeing Jiang Fangguo, who was in a hurry here, Xu Yunyan stepped forward and pressed him on the stool.
"Don't be anxious, speak slowly."
While he was talking, he poured a cup of tea from the side and handed it to Jiang Fangguo. How could Jiang Fangguo think about drinking water?
Looking at Xu Yunyan here, he said, "Sir, something big has happened. Come with me to the shipyard. Something happened at the shipyard."
The shipyard is now the top priority. Once something goes wrong, everyone will be in big trouble.
As soon as he heard that something happened at the shipyard, Xu Yunyan was pulled out by Jiang Fangguo before he could react.
After Xu Yunyan was pulled out by Jiang Fangguo from the door of the hall, he came to his senses and asked here.
"What's going on? What happened to the shipyard? Aren't there many Zhechong Mansion generals guarding it? How can something happen if it is so tightly guarded?"
When Xu Yunyan said this, Jiang Fangguo lowered his head and stopped pulling Xu Yunyan towards the boat, and started talking there.
"I was derelict in my duty, I was derelict in my duty!"
Looking at Jiang Fangguo who kept admitting his mistake, Xu Yunyan was also angry.
"What's going on? Tell me quickly what kind of thing it is. If you can figure out a way to deal with the other party here, arrange someone to do it now.
You just dragged me away in such a hurry without telling me what was going on. What's the point of this?
A general should be calm when things change. You are a fifth-grade captain after all. Why are you still so ignorant and panicked when things happen? How can you be a general? "
Here, I yelled a few words loudly with Jiang Fangguo, and finally woke up Jiang Fangguo. Jiang Fangguo looked at him and started talking.
"Sir, that's what happened. There used to be a brigade commander named Ma Youcai..."
Soon, Jiang Fangguo told Xu Yunyan everything he knew about Ma Youcai, but Xu Yunyan didn't care about it.
"Why are you telling me this? I know this person. There is a brigade commander named Ma Youcai who was punished by you for violating military discipline. Can't you just say a word? Tell me what is going on? Isn't that right? What trouble did Ma Youcai get into?"
"Ma Youcai relied on his status as brigade commander and pretended to pass my order to enter the shipyard. He had no idea what was going on here..."
"Why are you talking all this nonsense?"
Xu Yunyan was now a little angry at Jiang Fangguo's nonsense. "What's next?"
"After he pretended to pass an order and entered the area we designated, he discovered it was a shipyard. While strolling around the shipyard while the workers were taking a break, he accidentally loosened the main rope, and the ship was launched."
"The ship has been launched?"
Xu Yunyan suddenly knew that this was very troublesome.
"No, isn't this ship coming to an end? The ship went into the water as soon as it was launched. Could it be that it capsized?"
"It didn't capsize, it just drifted away with the current."
"Then what are you waiting for? Why don't you hurry up and organize people to capture the boat for me?"
"We don't have that many navy troops."
This time, Xu Yunyan was in quite a bit of trouble.
This is a thousand calculations, but the only ship that was not calculated was safe and sound after being launched into the water. But without a navy, who would control the ship?
Although he was helpless, Xu Yunyan still said, "Go and look for me now. As long as they can swim, all of them will board the big ship in the small boat with me. Now hurry up and give the order."
Following Xu Yunyan's order, Jiang Fangguo finally nodded here as if he had found his backbone.
"Yes, yes, I will make arrangements right now."
But just as he was about to leave, Xu Yunyan shouted to him again.
"Also, let me control that Ma Youcai first. He dares to falsely convey military orders. If something happens to this ship at sea, I will question him."
Jiang Fangguo responded and rushed out to arrange these things.
When Xu Yunyan drove his war horse and escorted him to the designated shipyard at lightning speed, a large group of craftsmen were at the seaside, looking at the ships that were getting further and further away on the sea.
As for those Zhe Chong Mansion soldiers who were anxious here and didn't know what to do, after Xu Yunyan arrived, Jiang Fangguo quickly came to him, followed by a group of Zhe Chong Mansion soldiers who were as tired as dead dogs.
Xu Yunyan looked at them and had no choice but to rush to the shelves.
"Soldiers! Now it's time to test you. As long as you can swim, follow me to drive the small boat to catch up with the big ship and board it. I will take you to drive it back."
