After my mind was read, I became the emperor's favorite

Qi Mingze did not go to meet the group of human traffickers immediately, but asked the Wuyiwei to integrate the information they had investigated and show it to him.

No matter what happens, only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win every battle.

Besides, I am now the butcher and others are the meat.

All the abducted girls and children have been rescued, and the undercover agents hiding among them have also been caught.

The ones who should be anxious are never them, but the human traffickers who wake up to be arrested for no apparent reason.

The reason why they did not spread the news and let the victims return home was because they still wanted to catch the manipulator behind the scenes.

The younger children were relatively easy to send back, especially the boys.

But for girls and some girls, it needs to be handled with caution.

In the ancient environment, even in Xia Lin, where people were open-minded, attached great importance to women's chastity.

If they are not careful, the rest of these girls’ lives will be ruined.

Either they committed suicide, or their families cut off their hair and sent them to a nunnery to live with the Buddha by the green lamp.

Even if you are loved by your parents and stay at home, you may not be able to withstand the rumors.

He had asked Chengyuan to help him deliver the memorial and take over the matter.

He didn't trust Jingzhao Prefecture. So many people disappeared within his jurisdiction. Did he really not find any clues?

Or maybe it’s because the chain of interests involved is too huge, so he doesn’t dare to intervene and doesn’t want to intervene.

After he finished reading the information and comforted the victims, Jun Linyuan also came over with the emperor's edict.

The emperor expressed his appreciation for their ability to act and gave the case to the Taishige for full responsibility.

"Chengyuan, the bandit leader wants to see me. Please accompany me in later."

After repeated brainwashing by the system, Qi Mingze has completely accepted 'Jun Linyuan'.

Now when facing him, he naturally regained his original calmness and composure.

Jun Linyuan raised his eyebrows, expressing satisfaction with Qi Mingze's change in attitude.

He thought that his actions in the early morning had "shocked" Mingze, making him learn a lesson and learn to rely on him.

In fact, the system that has done the most ideological work for the host all morning is the one that has made the greatest contribution.

These are all things that Jun Linyuan doesn't know, otherwise he would have wanted to tear the system into pieces.

"I am honored to be invited by Mingze."

"Then we'll see what happens next."

"Okay." Jun Linyuan gave him a look of understanding.

Mingze is about to get close to the enemy and attack with all his might, so he just needs to be a qualified protector.

The door of the torture chamber was opened, and the boss of the human trafficking gang was tied to the rack. Although he was not being tortured, he looked very depressed.

"It's you." Seeing Qi Mingze walking in unharmed, the boss said gritting his teeth.

The victor takes all, and they will be the losers. Now that they have fallen into his hands, they will probably not have a good ending.

Now he only hopes that his ninth sister and tenth brother can get out safely and help them notify Mr. Wei.

Mr. Wei probably wouldn't want to rescue them, but at least he had a thought.

Besides, it's not like he doesn't have some leverage over them. If he didn't have some means of saving his life, he wouldn't have taken his brothers down this path.

"I heard that you want to see me before you speak?" Qi Mingze doesn't care about the boss's attitude.

He is a person who focuses on results. As long as the result is good, what does it matter what the process is like or what the attitude of others is like?

“I have nothing to say, now that you’ve caught us.

Kill me or chop me up, it's all up to you!" The boss said, looking like he had given up.

"You!" Seeing him like this, the Wuyi Guard next to him couldn't help but pretend to hit him, but was stopped by Jun Linyuan.

"You guys go down first." Qi Mingze signaled everyone except Jun Linyuan to go out.

He is still used to convincing people with "reason", and forcing them to confess does not suit his style.

"Yes, Lord Qi." The others filed out, but just stood outside the door.

After all, they can't afford to take responsibility if anything happens to either of the two adults inside.

"Since you don't want to say it, let me say it.

The eldest, Luo Xishen, also known by his courtesy name Hezhi, was from Linyin, Shengjing. He had a wife and two children...

The second son, Yu Xu, was from Shanyang, Kuaiji. His wife died young and he had an only daughter.

……

Old Eight..."

Qi Mingze narrated to Luo Xishen the information from the eldest to the eighth brother sent by Jun Linyuan, word for word.

This was also Qi Mingze's first psychological hint, taking the lead and taking the lead.

Not only Luo Xishen, even Jun Linyuan was shocked.

What surprised Luo Xishen was that in just one night, they had obtained information about him and the other eight people.

What shocked Jun Linyuan was the information that he had sent Qianji Pavilion to search for. Qi Mingze only looked at it for a few seconds and then returned it to him.

He had always thought that he was asked to keep it, but he didn't expect that he had remembered it exactly.

As Mingze was retelling the story, he couldn't help but flip through the case file, and there was really nothing missing.

He thought that the reason why Qianji Pavilion was able to find the information of these people so quickly was because Mingze provided the approximate range and their names.

"What do you want to do?" After a long silence, Luo Xishen couldn't help but ask.

"I don't want to do anything, but you are also a scholar, and I believe you know Xia Lin's laws.

Our dynasty severely punishes those who kidnap and sell people. The main offender will be sentenced to crucifixion (cut into pieces) and his family will be exiled three thousand miles away.

......"

Qi Mingze transformed himself into an emotionless reciting machine, recounting the crimes of the main culprit in the kidnapping and selling out.

"What do you want to do with them?" Luo Xishen had also thought about this.

However, Mr. Wei said that if they followed the master's instructions, and with the power behind them, nothing would happen.

They had taken action so many times and were always safe and sound, and were able to leave successfully even in places surrounded by heavy guards.

But this time he just wanted to catch a weak scholar, but he ended up capsizing in the gutter.

"Let me explain to you the difference between a principal offender and an accomplice. An accomplice will be exiled three thousand miles.

But his family members only need to serve three years in prison... I think you should have a deep understanding of the difference.

So it’s not about what I want to do, but what you want to do, what you want your brothers to do, and what you want your families to do.”

Qi Mingze's second psychological hint was to instantly switch the host and the guest, luring the enemy into a trap and putting all the pressure on Luo Xishen.

"Me?" Luo Xishen didn't understand how he could control this.

"It's you. If there's no mastermind behind this, then you are the main culprit. So now it's up to you to decide the identities of the others."

The subtext is that only if you give out the person behind the scenes can you be reduced from the mastermind to an accomplice.

"we are not."

"Oh, who is the mastermind?"

Luo Xishen remained silent, but Qi Mingze already knew that he was wavering.

What I have to do now is to keep increasing the stakes and break through his psychological defenses.

Maybe they are not afraid of death. After all, they are all people who live on the edge of a knife and have been prepared to die, but they have to take their families into consideration.

"Perhaps you are still expecting that person to come and rescue you, but I have already ordered the Wuyi Guard to completely block the news and ensure that no one will leak it."

Luo Xishen was thinking, even if you block the news, as long as you release those children and girls, Mr. Wei will still know.

He didn't know that Qi Mingze's purpose was to make him think of these two people.

"Let me guess, what are you thinking about? Are you thinking about your hidden hand? What is the hidden hand?" Qi Mingze's third psychological hint.

"I don't have a hidden hand, and I don't know what you are talking about."

Luo Xishen was disdainful. How could these people have thought of their hidden tricks?

"Well, since you're so uncooperative, I can only find out what you're up to."

Qi Mingze smiled as he looked at the prey that had completely fallen into the trap.

It's like a cat and mouse game, giving him hope and then shattering it, which is more despairing than never seeing the dawn!
