Everyone in Taoyuan County returned to their homes.
Fang Zhengyi found a random excuse to let the prince go and have fun on his own.
Safety in the county doesn't matter. We have spies everywhere, so there shouldn't be any problems.
As for himself, he went to the county government office as soon as possible.
I haven't been back for so long that I don't know what happened in the county.
Fortunately, Ao Chen was in the county government office. When he saw Fang Zhengyi, he immediately asked in surprise, "Master, you're back?"
Fang Zhengyi sat back in his seat carelessly.
He asked, "How is the county doing lately? Is there anything special going on?"
Ao Chen immediately perked up and said, "Yes! There is only one big thing!"
"Master, didn't you send two spies to the Prince of Wu's Palace? One of them was caught! And we know he is from our county."
Fang Zhengyi immediately became alert: "Who?! Call them over!"
The people in Taoyuan County Government are the elite among the elite. How could they be easily caught?
Soon, the spy was brought before Fang Zhengyi.
The whole person looked disheveled, and it was obvious that he had rushed here after receiving the news.
As soon as he arrived at the county government office, he immediately prostrated himself on the ground and cried, "Master! I have brought shame upon you!"
Fang Zheng frowned as soon as he saw him: "Gan An? Tell me, how did you get discovered? What's going on in Prince Wu's mansion?"
Gan An was still lying on the ground, not wanting to get up, and said aggrievedly: "Master, I was wrong! I didn't find anything!"
"The palace was recruiting gardeners, and Feng Ya and I sneaked in... Feng Ya is fine."
"Wait? Feng Ya? How can he go with you?"
Fang Zheng was completely confused.
Feng Ya is a croupier at Taoyuan County Casino. On paper he is a croupier, but in reality he has been helping Fang Zhengyi run the casino.
When he was in Hengjiang Prefecture, he was a famous gambling king with excellent card skills.
The most important thing is that he is a good person and has been secretly helping some orphans.
Later, he heard of Fang Zhengyi's reputation and came to him on his own initiative, and the two of them had a very pleasant conversation.
Fang Zhengyi demonstrated his invention of playing cards on the spot, which impressed Feng Ya immediately.
Later, he asked Feng Ya to play golden hook fishing. With a total of ten Js in his hand, he lost 32 games in a row.
In a rage, he called a hundred beggars and made Feng Ya understand on the spot that the most powerful gambling technique is actually martial arts.
Later, he forced Feng Ya to come to Taoyuan County and settled down in the county.
The casino has been running smoothly.
As for the establishment of casinos, they are similar to brothels and were set up in order to eliminate underground casinos in Taoyuan County.
Over the years, a lot of mathematical talents have been selected for Taoyuan County...
Ao Chen came over and said, "Master, Feng Ya came to the county government office and overheard this. He insisted on asking to go into battle, saying that he wanted to have something exciting, so I let him go."
"My goodness, isn't gambling exciting enough?"
Fang Zheng scratched his head and said, "Forget it. Stand up and tell me how you were discovered from the beginning."
Gan An slowly got up and sighed, "In fact, the Wu Palace is quite weird. You have to take an exam to find a gardener."
"Everyone was given a piece of paper and asked to answer questions about flowers and plants. In the end, anyone who answered the questions on the paper was rejected!"
"It was Feng Ya who figured it out and gave me a hint, so I was lucky enough to get through."
Fang Zhengyi and Ao Chen looked at each other. It was indeed a bit weird. A gardener position required an exam?
Recruitment in royal palaces is not uncommon, but it is not common either. Occasionally, some information similar to recruitment notices can be seen posted outside the walls of various royal palaces.
There are all kinds of jobs like wet nurses, grooms, etc., all of which are sought upon demand.
But for those who are illiterate, this is the first time they have heard of it. How can they be illiterate if they can understand the recruitment information?
"Well, go on."
Gan An continued, "There's nothing special after entering. Every day I just fiddle with some flowers and plants in the yard."
"Nothing special at all!"
Fang Zheng asked hurriedly, "Then how were you discovered?"
Gan An stammered, "I don't know either. I ran into the King of Wu... We looked at each other and he said something was wrong with me. There was a guard with him at the time, and he kicked me and knocked me out."
"It was too fast, that kick was too fast... I didn't react at all, and when I woke up, I was in prison..."
Can you spot a traitor just by looking at his eyes? Does the King of Wu have the ability to read minds?
Fang Zhengyi walked up to Gan An and looked into his eyes carefully.
Gan An was a little scared by his gaze, and stared at Fang Zheng anxiously and asked, "Master, what's wrong?"
The two looked at each other, and Fang Zhengyi immediately understood.
"I see!"
Ao Chen hurriedly asked, "What's wrong, Master? Is there something in Gan An's eyes?"
Fang Zheng chuckled and finally understood everything.
Gan An looked at him without flinching or avoiding his gaze, and dared to look straight at him.
Life in Taoyuan County is affluent, and officials do not disturb the people, so most people are like this.
He had just returned from the disaster area. Although the people there trusted him, no one dared to look him in the eye.
Even the common people in the capital would avoid them when they see ordinary officials.
What’s more, it was a gardener who met the prince?
He had just returned from the disaster area, and when he saw Gan An's eyes, the contrast was particularly obvious, and he could clearly tell the difference at a glance.
I didn't expect that the King of Wu was so thoughtful? There's something!
"Go on."
"After I was discovered, I was thrown into jail and hung on a cross. At first, I was briefly interrogated twice, and I used a fake identity to continue their conversation."
"They didn't get anything out of me, and no one was tortured."
"After that, they left and I was locked up in jail. It was as if they had forgotten about me."
"That prison is really torturous! It's almost the same as the small dark room we used for training. Someone brings me food at regular intervals every day."
"I kept counting, and it was about three days before someone came back to interrogate me."
Fang Zhengyi pinched his chin and thought carefully.
Good guy, using psychological tactics to put someone in a dark room.
Fortunately, all his people were trained. In order to create an elite force, the people in the county government provided him with good food and drink.
During the war, they were trained using methods they saw on TV for special forces.
I didn't expect it to work here.
Fang Zheng paced back and forth, feeling that there was a problem that he had overlooked.
Suddenly he slapped his forehead and said, "They tied you up for three days. Isn't it convenient for them to not let you go?"
"No one cared about me. I pooped in my trouser pocket."
"Okay, keep talking!"
Gan An's face suddenly turned red. "Three days later, someone came to interrogate me. Maybe they felt disgusted, so they had me stripped naked and poured water on me."
"Then I was stripped....they..."
Fang Zhengyi couldn't help but get nervous: "What! What did they find?"
Gan An covered his face and whimpered, "Before I left the county, I bought a few pairs of the latest pants in the county."
"It bears our emblem..."
Fang Zhengyi: ".........."
