Chapter 360 The Annoying Little Girl

In order to prevent the Jiuguang Kingdom from attacking the Daqian Kingdom, the emperor immediately sent pigeons to the generals of the major military camps to strengthen training and improve the soldiers' military strength, and to send more soldiers to garrison the border.

While the soldiers on the border were training intensively, the lively atmosphere in the five cities remained. All the martial artists did not leave. They were waiting to see the style of the new leader and to learn from him.

The emperor rested in the house for five days, and his swollen face finally subsided, but there were still bruises on his face. Fortunately, the medicine prescribed by the imperial physician Miao was very effective, and he practiced martial arts every day to regulate his body. Finally, his face recovered within ten days and he could go out to the sun.

Ministers offered auspicious words one after another, only Kan Chaoyan brought news: "Your Majesty, we have interrogated the identities of the five people who participated in the Wu Zun competition. They are spies sent by Jiuguang Kingdom, Jiuyue Kingdom, Jiuao Kingdom, Jiusheng Kingdom, and Jiuyu Kingdom. Each of them has the strength of a Wu Zun. They participated in the competition to gain the support of martial artists and then instigate everyone to rebel together, but the most terrifying thing is that they sneaked into Daqian Kingdom as spies seven years ago."

"Seven years ago?" The emperor was shocked. He actually sneaked in as a spy before he unified the five countries: "Did the spy say this himself?"

"Yes, we used hallucination powder on them to make them hallucinate and force them to tell the truth." Kan Chaoyan frowned slightly: "Of course, hallucination powder may not really work on Wu Zun. It is possible that there are some lies in it, but I think 70% of their words are true."

"Then Their identities in Daqian are...”

“They are all gang leaders, and the governor has taken people to raid their branch. I believe good news will be reported back in an hour.”

The emperor was really worried: “Can you find out if they have any accomplices? For example, is it possible that their people are working in the court?”

Kan Chaoyan shook his head: “We have asked about this matter, and they said that they received the spy mission through letters. Even if there are accomplices who sneak into Daqian, they don’t know who the other party is, let alone what they do.”

“If it is just a spy, it will not cause any big waves if it is a civil official, but if it is a military officer, or a military officer in the border…”

Kan Chaoyan knew the seriousness of the matter without the emperor finishing his words: “Your Majesty, you don’t have to worry. If there are any spies in the border, you can ask one person and you will know the result.”

He glanced at the opposite courtyard, and the emperor immediately understood.

The person living opposite the emperor’s courtyard was Mu Nanjin. As long as she was there, there was nothing they didn’t know.

The emperor felt a mixture of love and hate for Mu Nanjin. How could there be such a troublesome little girl in this world?

He sighed: "She is really suitable for the position of Jinyiwei."

Kan Chaoyan agreed: "She is still suitable for the Ministry of Justice. There is no case that cannot be solved with her."

The emperor nodded: "When we return to the capital, let the governor find a reason to let her stay in the Ministry of Justice for a few days to solve all the old cases. She has done a good thing and has great merit."

"Ha--"

Suddenly, the sound of Mu Nanjin sneezing came from the opposite yard.

[Who is scolding me? Or who is thinking about me? ]

The emperor and Kan Chaoyan shut up immediately.

The emperor raised his chin towards the opposite yard, indicating Kan Chaoyan to go to Mu Nanjin to do something.

Kan Chaoyan came to Mu Nanjin's yard with a smile: "Mu girl, don't you have to go on duty today?"

"I have to go out on business today."

Mu Nanjin sat on the rocking chair and rocked.

Kan Chaoyan asked with great concern: "You have to go out on business? Do you need my help?"

Mu Nanjin looked at him: "Aren't you busy investigating the spies? How do you have time to help me?"

"It gives me a headache just talking about this matter." Kan Chaoyan deliberately sighed and sat on a stone bench beside him: "Don't you know that the mouths of these five spies are like stitches, and they can't be pried open no matter how hard they try. They would never tell who their accomplices are."

He rubbed his temples: "The emperor has only one day left for us to interrogate, and we will be punished if we can't get the answer."

Mu Nanjin asked casually: "What punishment?"

"At the lightest, it will be a fine of half a year's salary of our left courtyard. If the punishment is heavy, it's hard to say."

He wanted to say demotion, but when he thought that demotion was exactly what Mu Nanjin wanted, he changed his words.

[Half a year's salary is only a few dozen taels of silver. I have money now, so I don't care about these few dozen taels of silver. If you want to punish me, then fine me, hehe. ]

Kan Chaoyan: "..."

In the past, two taels of silver would have killed her.

Now that the little girl has grown up, she doesn't even care about a few dozen taels of silver.

"But if someone does this thing well, then the person who does it well will have a reward of a thousand taels of gold."

"A thousand taels of gold?"

Mu Nanjin's eyes lit up slightly.

[Ask a few questions and you will get a thousand taels of gold, and you will get the food allowance for Taotie for ten days. ]

Kan Chaoyan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, money is still attractive in Mu Nanjin's eyes, otherwise it would be difficult to ask her to do things again.

"Yes, I can't ask all the things, and I don't have the blessing to get a thousand taels of gold."

If Mu Nanjin can tell other spies, let alone a thousand taels of gold, even ten thousand taels of gold, the emperor will be willing to give her.

Mu Nanjin looked at the sky and said, "It's still early. I'll go interrogate the spy first, and then do my business."

Kan Chaoyan asked in a fake tone, "Do you have a way to interrogate him?"

"We'll know after we try."

Mu Nanjin took the list of names that Kan Chaoyan had interrogated, and then took Wu Yuan into the cell.

Kan Chaoyan was waiting outside, and she came out in just a quarter of an hour.

He was surprised and said, "You came out so soon? Did you interrogate him?"

"You did." Mu Nanjin handed Wu Yuan the case file he had written to him, "Remember to send a thousand taels of gold to my house after you return to the capital."

After saying this, she took Wu Yuan away. She had to go buy materials with Chen Dao today, and there was no time to delay any longer.

Kan Chaoyan watched them leave in a daze. He had spent ten days trying to figure out a problem, but the other party did it in half a minute. He had to admire him.

The five spies in the cell were even more confused.

Mu Nanjin came in and read their names first, then told them all about their ancestors like telling a story. She knew more about things they didn't know than they did. She could even accurately name the spies in Daqian and knew what official positions their accomplices held.

Finally, she forced them to put their fingerprints on the case file.

From beginning to end, there was no torture, no threats or inducements, and the results were obtained at the fastest speed.

While they were still confused, the other party left with the case file.

The spy from Jiuyu asked the spies from the other four countries: "Did she just say that your country's things were nonsense?"

In fact, there was no need to ask, and you could tell from their expressions that Mu Nanjin was telling the truth.

The spy from Jiusheng said: "I think she is more of a spy than us, and she is an old spy who has been lurking in our country for a long time. She has known all our secrets."

The spy from Jiuguang was puzzled: "By the way, since they knew all our details, why did they torture us before? And forced us to drink so many medicines?"

The spy from Jiuyue snorted: "I think they just want to beat us, but they are afraid that we are from a medium-sized country, so they have to find a reason to torture us."

The spy from Jiuao said: "The people of Daqian are despicable."

The other four countries agreed: "Yes, despicable."

Kan Chaoyan, who was standing outside the cell and heard their conversation: "..."
