As soon as Jin Shuai got into the car, he couldn't help but laugh and scold, "What exactly are you two trying to do? This Duke is in a hurry to get home and rest! You've been busy all night, are you not even allowed to get some sleep?"

Bao Zheng smiled obsequiously and said, "My lord, we're going the same way. Let us escort you back to your residence, hehehe..."

Hearing this, Jin Shuai rolled his eyes at him and teased, "Hey Lao Bao, you're really shameless. You're obviously just trying to hitch a ride in my carriage! Don't give me that. We're not even going the same way. You should just go and do your own thing! And you, Lao Di, what are you doing meddling here?"

Di Pojun, however, didn't take it to heart and replied with a grin, "Hehe, sir, don't say that. Actually, it's quite on the way."

Jin Shuai shook his head angrily, muttering, "Follow my own route, my foot! Just ask me what's wrong. You guys have kept me up all night, I'm so sleepy."

At this moment, Bao Zheng put away his smile and became serious, humbly asking for advice: "My lord, could you give us some valuable advice on this arms case? After returning to the yamen this morning, I pondered it for a long time. If we simply start the investigation from the group in Wuyou Cave, I'm afraid it will be difficult to obtain any valuable clues or intelligence!"

“Hey, Lao Bao, why are you so stubborn? You need to broaden your thinking. First, figure out who is most likely to rebel. Once you've determined the general area and target, have Lao Di's men keep a close watch on them! As for Wuyou Cave, you need to find a way to narrow down the search area. After all, with so much weaponry, those ordinary henchmen definitely can't handle it. So, you can put some pressure on them or tempt them with some benefits to get them to provide you with some useful intelligence. If that still doesn't work, then investigate those who have good relations with the Xiang Army. Anyway, this matter can't be closed so quickly. As long as it's not closed, we can't conclude who did it. Under these circumstances, anyone could become a suspect, like a sword hanging over our heads. But it's okay, you have plenty of time to work your way up. The officials aren't in a hurry anyway,” Jin Shuai said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Bao Zheng smiled slightly and asked, "What if a civil official impeaches me for incompetence?"

Jin Shuai burst into laughter, patted Bao Zheng on the shoulder, and said, "Hey, how can you be so stupid! If someone dares to jump out and criticize you, why don't you just retort on the spot? Directly question him about why he's in such a hurry to close the case, is it because his accomplices want to cover up the truth? And then, immediately send someone to monitor him! I don't believe any fool would dare to provoke you again!" After saying that, another hearty laugh rang out.

"Thank you for your advice, Your Excellency. I will certainly treat you to wine another day to express my gratitude. I must take my leave now." With that, the man vanished like a bolt of lightning, disappearing without a trace. Jin Shuai thought to himself, "Damn, he ran fast enough. First, I'll teach you how to insult people, then I'll teach you how to trick people, haha."
