If it had been before, Mao Yuwen wouldn't have been so entangled and would have gone ahead with the knife. Jin Yiwei arrests people, when has he ever been reasonable?
But he failed in front of the emperor last time. In fact, he has been uneasy for the past few months. No one would say that he still doesn't care about matters related to his life and death.
The tiger took a nap and was almost burned to death in Jiangxi.
The shock of this night made him understand that to survive in such a situation in the court, there was no other way but to be ruthless. There is no turning back in his choice.
He had killed so many people in the past, but this time he was a little weaker. What was waiting for him was not to be accepted, but to be killed.
So he can only become a sharper knife.
When Jin Yiwei was really unreasonable and desperate, Jiangxi Governor Yuan Zhuang did not dare to force himself. He neither dared to kill Jin Yiwei nor stopped Jin Yiwei from killing people.
If a deputy envoy of Jinyiwei died in Jiangxi, the matter would be even bigger.
In this way, Mao Yuwen could go to the gate of the Jiangxi Inspector's Office with a knife.
Among the civil servants in the courtyard, some were afraid, some were mourning, and most of them had a feeling that a treacherous minister would rise to power and cause endless harm.
Mao Yuwen took out the knife. He drew it very slowly, and the sound of sliding and friction was a bit harsh. Then he pointed at these officials, "Jinyiwei came to Jiangxi under the imperial decree. Xu Shufeng comes with me alive. We are in peace. If we kill people and silence them, Jiangxi Just deliberately resisting!"
When Xu Shufeng was really brought out,
Even Mao Yuwen could not help but frown.
Because a big man was whipped with blood marks all over his body, and two big men had to hold his arms, otherwise he would not be able to stand firmly.
"They all say that we, the Jin Yiwei, are just beasts, but I don't think you are any more noble."
Mao Yuwen said this, gave Yuan Zhuang a bad look, and then walked away.
Yuan Zhuang was so angry that he was shaking all over. After all, he was still the governor of Jiangxi.
"I swear to read his book!"
But secretly he looked at Jiangxi Inspector Zong Fu, who secretly nodded to him.
On the other side, Mao Yuwen started to give instructions as soon as he left the house, "Go find a doctor."
Then they found a place to live in the backyard of an inn. The innkeeper didn't dare to stop them because of their clothes, and waited on them tremblingly.
At night, after drinking water and medicine, Xu Shufeng gradually woke up.
Mao Yuwen sat on a stool with his back on the bed and one hand on the wooden table. The person next to him told him, "Boss, I'm awake."
Hearing this, he stood up and went to the bed.
Xu Shufeng was very weak, and his eyes only seemed to be half open.
"Jin...Jin Yiwei?"
"yes."
"Find a way to cure him."
Mao Yuwen said this to a doctor. The old man was so frightened that he was sweating and just nodded.
After that, there were only three people left in the room, Xu Shufeng, Mao Yuwen and a Tian Er.
"You're lucky. The Emperor heard your grievances and was saved."
There was a wisp of incense rising slowly in the room, and time passed slowly.
"Thank you...Your Majesty...for your grace."
"What is Zhan's main crime? Who did he collude with?"
The man on the bed was stunned and said, "Wrong... everything is wrong."
"wrong?"
Mao Yuwen and Tian Er both looked shocked. What do you mean by wrong?
"Zhan is not guilty."
"This is impossible!" Tian Er couldn't help himself.
If none of this is true, what is the true nature of this story?
Could it be that someone else framed Zhan?
Mao Yuwen felt that his head was starting to hurt, and he became increasingly confused.
"Send to the capital. If you die on the way, your body will also be sent!" After saying that, he left the house.
"yes!"
Tian Er chased after him and asked: "Boss, what should we do now? Should Zhan be arrested or not?"
There was no immediate answer to this question, because Mao Yuwen was also thinking,
Originally, they had a clear goal, and they never thought that Xu Shufeng would say such words.
If you are in the capital, you can still report it to the emperor. Now it's up to him to tell the difference.
"Grasp!"
"But if what he said is true, wouldn't we have arrested the wrong person?"
Mao Yuwen wiped the knife and put it on his waist. "First think about where the name Xu Shufeng came from?"
Came from the emperor.
"The consequences of deceiving us are not serious, but deceiving the emperor is a serious matter. So Xu Shufeng will not be a person who defends the Zhan family, and Zhan Xiushan is not a person who keeps his own rules. So think about it, what does 'wrong' mean? Could this person... be a fake? The real Xu Shufeng should be dead!"
Tian Er was shocked when he heard this.
"How is this determined?"
The more Mao Yuwen thought about it, the more likely it seemed, "No need to be sure. Because they have no choice."
According to normal logic, it is best not to kill Xu Shufeng first. If he does kill him, he can only cover it up. The witness the emperor wanted died in Jiangxi. No one dared to imagine what consequences this would have.
Thinking about it further, this person still needs to be killed.
If you kill them, you can continue to fight and investigate, or you can get past them. If you really hand someone over, you won't have any thoughts about it.
This is a very simple truth. It just depends on how brave you are.
To put it bluntly, if the emperor says a word and everyone in the Ming Dynasty is obedient, how can this country be governed?
Not to mention killing people and silencing them, or acting daringly. Mao Yuwen had come into contact with many people who committed crimes, and when it came to the final juncture, he would have to use any method.
"Now that I think about it, it was too easy for us to get such a key person. We can basically tie a knot with him, but is it really so easy to tie such a big knot?" Mao Yuwen squinted. Eyes, "Besides you and me, none of us have seen Xu Shufeng, how do we know that this is him?"
"Jiangxi, someone must have seen him."
"Who wants to be close to a shit basin? At this time and this kind of thing, even if you know it, you will pretend not to know."
Tian Er still couldn't believe it, "But I gave you a dummy..."
"It's not necessarily completely fake. There should still be some similarities. If it's made like this, it's probably not easy for people to tell the difference. It's hard to tell the real from the fake. There's no way around it. It's broken..."
If you think about it this way, they actually picked up a hot potato!
Mao Yuwen's scalp felt cold, "If Xu Shufeng dies at this time, we will never be able to explain it clearly!"
This is a bit like "counting the cash in person and taking no responsibility for leaving the counter".
Man, I leave it to you. You didn't tell a lie.
People died in your hands, and you lied.
Who would recognize this?
When the time comes I insist that I will hand it over to you as a real person, and I will beat you to death if you don't admit it.
This level is basically over!
At least my life can be saved!
Mao Yuwen could not help but lament that these officials in the Ming Dynasty were very clever in their methods.
Even a dead end can be revived.
If the emperor didn't trust him completely, the investigation would have ended here.
Mao Yuwen looked into the room again.
If it is indeed the fake Xu Shufeng, then the journey to the capital must be particularly dangerous.
"Tian Er, let's find a carriage tomorrow, and we'll also send a dummy."
This matter has reached this level, and the bayonet has already seen red.
With so many dangerous moves coming towards him, Mao Yuwen felt that he could no longer do nothing.
…
…
On the afternoon of the second day, a man was carried into a carriage at the door of this ordinary inn. The carriage left the city and headed north.
After that, a group of Jin Yiwei also came out. This group of people straddled their horses and headed straight for Poyang County.
The real fake Xu Shufeng was hidden.
True and false, false and true. This game is so thrilling that Mao Yuwen no longer wants to play it.
So he hurried on and went straight to the Zhan family in Poyang.
On the other side, Wang Sheng, the prefect of Raozhou Prefecture, was also facing a formidable enemy.
This scene happened not long ago.
But this time Jin Yiwei's momentum seemed wrong.
In ancient China, people settled down and relocated, and it was difficult to escape completely. Putting aside the fact that the Poyang Zhan family bought thousands of acres of land and were reluctant to throw it away, it would be unimaginable for a group of people with a good life to become refugees even if their whole family really fled.
And there are people in the government protecting them. Things haven’t reached that level yet. Who wants to give up everything? Besides, people like Wang Sheng would not allow them to escape. You escaped, what should I do?
Of course, some children in the family can make arrangements in advance to escape first.
no problem.
"Why is Deputy Ambassador Mao here again?"
Mao Yuwen was riding on the horse, not even wanting to look at this strong man. He only directed his people, "Enter the door and arrest them!"
"Who dares!" Wang Sheng seemed to be ruthless, his eyes widened with anger, and he would not give in at all, "I still say what I said, either get the imperial edict or get the evidence!"
"Drive." Mao Yuwen pinched the horse's belly and moved closer, "If you don't let me go, the Jin Yiwei will arrest you too."

"Ha! I am the prefect of Raozhou and the official of the imperial court! You arrest the imperial official for no reason. I am afraid you don't want your own head anymore!"
"You're right, I just don't want my head anymore." Mao Yuwen just found him annoying, "Come on, come in! Anyone who blocks the way will be killed without mercy!"
Wang Sheng also turned red-eyed, "Mao Yuwen, do you really dare to commit murder here?!"
Wow!
Mao Yuwen dismounted, drew his knife and rushed straight towards Wang Sheng. The guard beside him was a little stupid for a moment, but at the last moment he raised his knife to block him.
Finally, Xiuchundao pointed at Wang Sheng,
"The Royal Guards are responsible for the affairs of the imperial family, princes and ministers, not to mention you, a small fourth-grade prefect. I don't care who is supporting you behind your back, today is the person behind you, and I will also Arrest people. If you have the ability, let your men kill us. We are outnumbered, and you can definitely do it."
Wang Sheng was anxious, "Madman, madman. No wonder everyone in the government and the public says you are a madman!"
Mao Yuwen grinned, and then his eyes moved, and Tian Er and other Jin Yiwei seemed to have received the order.
The sound of swords being drawn out could be heard endlessly, and the sharpness of Xiuchun Knife was frightening. As for the door, it only took a few of them to kick it.
Wang Sheng gritted his teeth to control, clenching his fists so much that veins appeared on the back of his hands, "Mao Yuwen, there is silk in Zhan's business, and there are silks in the palace. If you really investigate, you will dig your own grave!" "
"I know."
"You know?" Wang Sheng was really shocked now, "You know, and you still do this?"
Mao Yuwen smiled and said: "I have been in the grave for a long time. The Zhan family colluded with the government and smuggled on the sea. This is what the Jinyiwei is focusing on. As for the other things, whatever is found is Zhan's crime, and it has nothing to do with me. ?”
"What about King Huai?"
"The Jinyi Guards do not obey the orders of King Huai."
"But His Majesty will be concerned about Prince Huai!" Wang Sheng is also a man with a bad temper. "The smuggling crime you mentioned is also being committed in the palace, isn't it? Everyone in the world knows about the Mei scheme in Zhejiang? The emperor is doing it, why does the prince do it? Can not do?!"
Mao Yuwen put an embroidered spring knife on his neck, "Do you want to die?"
