This is the most private place in the entire imperial capital, Golden Card.
Therefore, the people received here are all rich or noble, and of course those with extraordinary status cannot enter this place.
There are frequent exchanges of dignitaries here, and this place, which is not big or small, has also witnessed countless secrets of the imperial capital.
It's already late at night, and all the street lights in the teahouse are still on. The traditional pavilions and water pavilions are in the shape of a loft. After winter, this place has a unique beauty.
The spring water brought down from the mountain flows gurglingly, and smoke curls up amidst the snow-white scenery.
In the two-story building at the southeast corner of the tea house, the bamboo curtain used to block the wind in winter sways with the wind. Between the swaying gaps in the bamboo curtain, you can see the iron kettle bubbling on the stove.
The person in front of the tea table leisurely added tea leaves into the pot. After the first tea soup was poured out, there was finally movement at the door.
The man making tea looked up in a leisurely manner.
"Mr. Yun, please take a seat."
Yun Zaichun nodded slightly and called politely, "Director Qin."
Qin Hui poured the bright yellow tea soup into the cup and pushed it over, "This is the tea I have treasured for many years. You can try it to see if it suits your taste."
Yun Zaichun sat down opposite him, held the tea cup and took a sip, "Of course the things Director Qin treasures are good."
Seeing his appearance, Qin Hui smiled and put down the wooden ladle in his hand.
"Mr. Yun made an appointment with me at this time, and he probably didn't just want to taste my tea." Qin Hui said.
Qin Hui has never been a simple person to be able to secure the position of director of the Department of Spiritual Recruitment. Now that the situation is clear, he no longer needs to be careless.
"Director Qin is a smart man and should know why I am looking for you."
Now that Zhong Limo was arrested, Xiao Yi was determined that the Yun family would not ignore Zhong Limo, and the conditions he proposed to the Yun family were also very harsh.
"You want me to let Zhong Limo go?" Qin Hui looked at the person in front of him.
Yun Zaichun shook his head, "She has made a mistake and should be punished. How to deal with her is a matter for the Department of Soul Recruitment. The Yun family will not interfere."
"Then what do you mean?"
He looked like he was asking questions knowingly, and Yun Zaichun snorted in his heart, this old fox is really calm enough.
"I have heard a little bit about the current situation in the Shuling Department. The two heads of the Purchasing Department and the Inspectorate Department have their own thoughts. Director Qin's position is not secure. Even this time, Zhong Limo, the Inspectorate Department, withheld the order and directly
It was issued beyond the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Pursuit, and it has exceeded the authority. The two ministers do not take you seriously, are you willing to do so?"
Qin Hui's expression did not change. The children of the Yun family seemed to be quite smart.
"Minister Xiao has been in Shuling Department for many years and has a deep foundation. If he is eliminated rashly, it will be a big turmoil for the entire Shuling Department, so you have temporarily shelved this plan."
With an almost determined tone, Yun Zaichun said every word. Qin Hui knew in his heart that the person in front of him was once Xiao Yi's subordinate.
He had done many things for Xiao Yi, and Xiao Yi also entrusted him with important tasks because of his status.
Why did Qin Hui take Zhong Limo back to Shu Ling? Qin Hui knew what he was planning from the beginning to the end.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Once we have the same enemy, no matter how deep the rift is, we can temporarily become allies.
"What do you want?" Qin Hui looked at him.
"What if I say that I can provide assistance to Director Qin?" Yun Zaichun said and added, "I can help bring down Xiao Yi."
He was not completely naive over the years. He kept relevant evidence for every thing he did for Xiao Yi.
These evidences can convict Xiao Yi and successfully lock him up.
What Qin Hui needs now is evidence that he secretly supports his subordinates, forms cliques for personal gain, and undermines the peace of Nanzhou.
"How can I believe you are not lying to me?"
Yun Zaichun smiled and handed over a sealed document, "This is my sincerity, you can take a look first."
Qin Hui opened the file, browsed it quickly and then closed it. As expected, he made the right move.
People from the Yun family can always bring surprises to people no matter where they are.
"What do you want?" Qin Hui put his hands together on the table.
The things in Yun Zaichun's hands were enough. With these things alone, he was able to convict Xiao Yi.
"Director Qin must promise that no one from any department of the Shuling Office will easily involve my Yun family in chaos. No matter what the identity of the Yun family is, no one from the Shuling Office can send anyone to hunt them down."
Qin Hui nodded, "I promise you."
Yun Zaichun then made a request, "I need a blank amnesty order stamped by Director Qin, and it can be used under any circumstances."
The successive directors of the Shuling Department can sign a pardon order to pardon the most heinous criminals.
"Okay." Qin Hui agreed happily.
As long as the current predicament can be solved, it is nothing more than an amnesty order.
"This is Xiao Yi's spy in Shu Ling Office. The detailed list is already attached. I hope Director Qin will not disappoint me."
The conversation between the two lasted only for a cup of tea. Yun Zaichun stood up and disappeared from the side room, leaving only Qin Hui and two subordinates.
"Director, are you sure that Yun Zaichun is sincere?"
What if this person cheated them.
Once the action starts, it can't be stopped. If you make a mistake, the whole game will be lost. You can't be careless in this matter.
"Yun Zaichun has been with Xiao Yi for many years. If he hadn't been captured by people from the Chai Department and taken to the Shuling Department, I wouldn't have been able to find him. With Yun Zaichun's mental acuity, the things in his hands would only be real.
It won’t be fake.”
The people behind him nodded, so when he knew that Xiao Yi was holding Zhong Limo to force the Yun family, Director Qin only said the words "seeking death."
The Yun family has not been able to collapse since Yun Han passed away, so there won't be too many problems this time.
"Starting from this list, no one of these people can be left out until dawn tomorrow."
The person behind him took the list and nodded, "Yes."
Now that they have conclusive evidence of guilt, it is enough to take action against Xiao Yi.
"In addition, arrange for someone to transfer Zhong Limo to the pursuit department overnight and hand it over to Sha Feng."
Qiu Yuerong's dissatisfaction with Xiao Yi has now reached its peak. If Zhong Limo is left in Qiu Yuerong's hands, he will not become anyone's bargaining chip.
She will solve the problem as quickly as possible, which is the best.
Yun Zaichun couldn't stop coughing after getting in the car. He had injuries on his body and the condition of his lungs was not very good. He was suddenly aroused by the cold air.
He coughed a few times and couldn't stop.
"Master." Fang Qi handed over a cup of hot water with some worry, "Let's go back quickly."
Now the young master's body cannot bear the cold wind, and the snow has been falling non-stop.
"It doesn't matter, let's go to the place where the spirits are gathered." Yun Zaichun coughed twice.
The most urgent thing is to go to the spiritual gathering place.
"We just gave the things to Director Qin, and now we are going to the Shu Ling Department. Why?"
Xiao Yi must be waiting for the Yun family in Shulingchu Building now. If he goes like this, he is playing into his hands. He can't show weakness to the enemy just yet.
"You don't understand."
Yun Zaichun shook his head and just ordered people to go to the place where the spirit was bundled.
It was already late at night when they arrived at Xunji. Fang Qi and Yun Zaichun found a restaurant closest to the gate of Shulingchu and sat down.
About two hours later, the person who came out of the building looked serious, looked around coldly, and quickly disappeared.
"That person seems to be the butler of the Zhong family." Fang Qi said.
Yun Zaichun knew what the purpose of this person's visit was. The longer the time passed, the more anxious these people became.
Now I can hardly hold my breath anymore.
"Let's go in and take a look."
They got an internal pass from Qin Hui. No matter when and where, as long as they use this pass, they can enter anywhere in Shuling Department without being blocked.
Fang Qi followed Yun Zaichundi cautiously, and after the two passed three levels, they went straight to the pursuit department floor.
Most of the people I met along the way were in a hurry. Perhaps they trusted the security of the entire Shu Ling Department building. They could not guess that outside members would sneak in.
When they were about to approach Shafeng, they turned a corner and met Qiu Yuerong, who had just returned from the police department to rob someone.
Behind her was Zhong Limo, who was bound by a binding spell. Even though he was wearing a mask, Fang Qi still subconsciously turned his head.
The group of them didn't pay too much attention and just escorted the person into the nearest interrogation room.
"Home team, do you want the trial to start overnight?" Jingyu asked.
This time, they took orders from Director Qin and stormed into the police department to rob people, and they all gained back their face.
He is full of energy now and can do any trial he wants.
"It's up to you. Anyway, the person has been brought back. This case must be settled within three days. Exile should be exiled, and souls should be broken. Don't make trouble." Qiu Yuerong raised his hand and handed the matter over to himself.
Processed.
"Okay, just look at mine."
Yun Zaichun looked at the two interrogation rooms. If he thought correctly, Mu Lian was also locked in the interrogation room over there.
Qiu Yuerong and Jingyu quickly noticed the person standing opposite them. Their eyes met and she walked over.
"Who are you?"
If she wasn't the one who killed Feng in this place, she could only have been sent by the higher-ups to inspect the work.
"We were sent by Director Qin and were ordered to interrogate Mu Lian and Zhong Limo. Please make it convenient for Qiu's team."
Fang Qi said and revealed the pass.
Jingyu took it and looked at it, making sure there was no problem before nodding.
"It's true."
Only Director Qin can provide this certificate, so there is no need to question the identity of these two people.
"Take them there." Qiu Yuerong only said.
Jingyu obediently led the two of them towards the interrogation room. Qiu Yuerong stopped where he was, his gaze falling on the two of them without moving.
Director Qin treated Xiao Yi softly some time ago, but now he has given an order for her to fully take over the Yun family's case. I am afraid it will not be done on a whim.
Moreover, these two people were sent by Director Qin for interrogation. She had a bad feeling that something was going to happen.
In order to save time, Yun Zaichun and Fang Qi went to different rooms. When they opened the door, the two girls sitting there had the same haggard look on their faces.
Looking at the person in front of him, Yun Zaichun only took one step forward.
"What, there's a substitution this time?" Mu Lian mocked, "That's all you have, it's really boring."
Yun Zaichun pulled out the chair opposite her and sat down, looking at the girl in front of him whom he had only met a few times.
Every time they met, it was not very harmonious. He had never cared about this girl. Such a weak-looking person could never make any big waves.
But he was wrong. The person in front of him almost overturned the entire Yun family, and he is still evil-minded.
"What kind of deal did you and Xiao Yi make?"
It is different from the questions that were asked repeatedly in the past two days.
Mu Lian looked at the person in front of her with an alert expression, "Who are you?"
Qiu Yuerong asked Xiao Yi without mentioning a word in the past few days, but the person in front of him suddenly thought of Xiao Yi.
His identity will not be simple.
"Then who are you, and why do you know about Zhong Limo?"
Zhong Limo and Yun Jingyu were indeed recognized by the entire imperial capital as being as close as father and daughter, but if they didn't know about Yun Jingyu's past, they wouldn't have thought of using Zhong Limo to threaten the Yun family.
But the affairs of Lin Yiyi and Yun Jingyu are not just known to everyone.
This Mu Lian knows so much about the Yun family, even down to the details of how many doors the Yun family has, and every path is clear.
Even after being caught, he was able to quickly reach a deal with Xiao Yi and let Xiao Yi threaten the Yun family with Zhong Limo. This person is definitely not simple.
What's more important now is that even the younger generation like them know only a little about the past. How can she be so sure and even use this to reach an agreement with Xiao Yi?
"I don't know what you are talking about." Mu Lian said coldly and closed her eyes.
"If you still don't explain anything, you can only handle it according to the rules of the Shuling Department." Yun Zaichun warned.
"It doesn't matter if you think I'm afraid. As long as Yun Muqian can go to hell, it doesn't matter what my final outcome is."
Even though Mu Lian has reached this point, she is still unwilling to accept it. She has obviously had to do it all over again, but in the end, she still reaches the same destination through different paths.
But she wouldn't feel comfortable watching Yun Muqian, even if it made her disgusted one last time.
So what if Chi Si is protecting her? She's not a bastard whose father doesn't love her mother. Her biological father's first priority will never be her.
She wanted Mu Qian to taste such a gap.
"If you don't tell me honestly who told you what you know, I'm afraid it will be very difficult."
Yun Zaichun changed his approach, "Don't forget, you still have parents and family..."
Mu Lian's pupils suddenly dilated, and she stood up emotionally, "You are not from the Soul Shuling Department!"
People here will not use this kind of threatening method to interrogate. This is a naked threat.
"It doesn't matter who I am, what matters is what you are going to say next. If you don't speak honestly, I guarantee that everyone in the Mu family will end up miserable."
At this point, I no longer care whether a gentleman is a gentleman or not.
The Yun family is now surrounded by crises, and there is no room for him to hesitate.
