Ma Qianli had just sent away Eunuch Ade, but before returning to the county government office, he saw Li Xing and Zhao Lei escorting a person back.
"grown ups……"
Ma Qianli took two steps quickly and was shocked when he saw the prisoner's appearance.
This man was covered in blood and looked really miserable.
"Sir, what is his condition?"
Li Xing covered his mouth with his hand and whispered to Ma Qianli: "We caught a barbarian spy."
"Wow!"
Ma Qianli opened his eyes wide in surprise. A new day had just begun when Li Xing caught another big fish.
Barbarian spy!
These four words sound so exciting.
Ma Qianli leaned down and carefully looked at Bahu'er who was covered in blood, and suddenly frowned: "Why does this spy look like Mr. Li Shabai?"
"Do you know Li Shabai?" Li Xing asked in surprise.
Ma Qianli smiled awkwardly: "How come I have the opportunity to know Mr. Li? I just met him once from a distance."
Ma Qianli was suddenly stunned and said: "Is he really Li Shabai?"
"fake."
Li Xing waved his hand: "Shengtang, I have to review the case."
Ma Qianli followed closely behind him and said: "Sir, please don't mess around with this matter. Mr. Li is not an ordinary person. We still have to be more cautious. Sir, how do you know that he is an imposter?"
Li Xing didn't know what to say. He couldn't say that he had activated a plug-in. He waved his hand casually and said, "Intuition."
intuition?
Ma Qianli was startled and said: "Relying on intuition is not enough for this matter. We still need to have solid and reliable evidence, sir, sir..."
Li Xing ignored him again, went to the back hall, changed into official uniform, and brought Bahur to the hall for trial.
Feng Tianlei and others, who were recovering from their injuries, also returned to the lobby. Looking at Li Xing who was full of energy and excitement, Feng Tianlei could only sigh in his heart: Sir, you are so dedicated.
Snapped!
Li Xing slapped the hall and asked: "Who is kneeling in the hall?"
Bahur reluctantly raised his head and looked at everything around him.
His face was a little pale due to excessive blood loss, but he was worthy of his professional training and could still keep his brain awake.
However, with his sober mind, he still couldn't figure out what was going on.
The plan had just begun and he had just entered the city. Why was he arrested?
Could it be that he has been discovered?
Could it be that Qingfeng Palace’s plan had already been seen through by the Dagan Yulong Guards.
Or is this just a misunderstanding?
…
While thinking wildly, Li Xing patted the gavel tree again and repeated: "Who are you kneeling in the hall?"
At this moment, Bahur has made a decision that he will be stubborn to the end and never admit defeat.
He raised his head and stared at Li Xing angrily: "Guan Gu, why did you frame me!"
Li Xing asked seriously: "Who are you!"
"I am Li Shabai, Li Shabai is me!"
These words were like a shot in the arm, and Bahur completely completed self-hypnosis.
Li Xing sneered: "I slashed you three times, from the city gate to the lobby, enough for a pot of tea. But now, you are conscious and speak clearly. It is said that Mr. Li doesn't know any kung fu."
Bahur's heart skipped a beat. When Li Xing was halfway through speaking, he realized that there was a flaw.
I am too strong, but this strength comes from Bahuer, not from Li Shabai.
He sneered: "If you want to kill, then kill, if you want to cut, then cut. Why bother blabbering."
Li Xing asked warmly: "Is Mr. Li still alive?"
Bahur said angrily: "I am Li Shabai, Li Shabai is me."
There was a little trick hidden in Li Xing's question. He directly skipped the question of Bahur's identity and turned to the second question.
Regardless of whether Bahur answers yes or no, it is tantamount to admitting that there is a problem with his identity.
Bahur sneered loudly, as if a drunken Confucian scholar was going crazy, or he was laughing at Li Xing's naivety.
He has received professional training from Qingfeng Palace, how could he be easily fooled.
"I am Li Shabai, Li Shabai is me."
Then, no matter what Li Xing asked, Li Shabai just said this.
He also understands the principle of losing words after talking too much.
In desperation, Li Xing had no choice but to retreat temporarily and put Li Shabai in prison, where he had to ask a doctor to bandage his wounds.
In the back hall, Li Xing took a sip of tea and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Today's efficiency is really low. I only caught one prisoner, and I don't know how many points Bahur will bring him.
But Ma Qianli was so anxious that he circled around and said, "Sir, you have really figured it out. If you make a mistake in this matter, you will lose your head."
"Is it that serious?" Feng Tianlei asked.
Ma Qianli shook his head and sighed: "You don't understand what the three words Li Shabai mean."
Seeing everyone's interested expressions, Ma Qianli said slowly: "When the Jin delegation went north, the imperial court held a banquet on the right bank of the river. The talents of the two countries took the theme of Changshui. The talents of Jin won seven games in a row and were about to fight.
His face was severely trampled under his feet."
"At that time, the late emperor left the banquet angrily, and all the officials and scholars were embarrassed. Finally, Mr. Li Shabai, who was still unknown at the time, volunteered to write the "Preface to the Changshui Banquet""
Ma Qianli showed a yearning expression on his face: "A piece of writing shines brightly and the words move two rivers. It is because of this incident that Mr. Li Shabai became famous in one battle."
"Afterwards, the imperial court invited him to Beijing as an official several times, but Mr. Li Shabai declined the invitation. In Daqian territory, he was made the prime minister of the grassroots."
"When we caught him, it can be said that we touched the hearts of intellectuals all over the world. He had many friends not only in the Daqian Dynasty, but also in the Jin Kingdom."
Li Xingdao: "What I caught is a barbarian spy."
Ma Qianli didn't know why Li Xing was so sure. He didn't go into details and just asked: "Do you have any evidence?"
"Well……"
Li Xing was speechless. He didn't have much knowledge about interrogation, and Bahur had received professional training. It was not easy to pry his mouth open.
"In my opinion, should we use punishment?" Feng Tianlei said: "With a few strikes, he will be able to do anything!"
Li Xing shook his head and said: "If he is really a spy, we will not be able to gain anything at all with our physical punishment. Moreover, he looks like he will not be able to withstand the severe punishment."
"Then what should we do?"
Ma Qianli said: "If we arrest Li Shabai, if there is no evidence, then we can say that we have stung a hornet's nest."
…
Ma Qianli's words are right. The entire Daqian Dynasty is waiting for Li Shabai's return this time.
Some people even rushed all the way to Baihu County to welcome Li Shabai's return.
As a result, Li Shabai was arrested as soon as he entered the city.
"crazy!"
"This magistrate is crazy!"
"I want to ask the imperial court for an order to chop off his head!" someone said viciously.
"I want to report to the Holy One and crush him to ashes."
As people spoke to each other, their emotions became more and more intense.
In the end, they unanimously decided to go to the county government office and ask Li Xing to release him.
