As soon as he finished speaking, Yinzhen's lips twitched slightly. Fei Yanggu was preparing to conduct a thorough investigation this time, to sweep away all those people, in order to prevent anyone from causing trouble behind the scenes.
Saito and Eshuo both went out, and the interrogation methods became more and more diverse. Those who were discovered were tortured to death and dared not make any small moves.
At this time, Fuquan continued to send people back, and none of these people had a family badge on their left arm, which Qingyan found strange.
There are only so many men in a village. Once they've settled down and started families, even if a girl finds a husband, there can't be so few men with the same surname. This fishing village has a secret.
Fei Yanggu frowned slightly, feeling somewhat annoyed. Why had he so easily agreed to Fu Quan's promise to interrogate him thoroughly?
"Father-in-law, is there a problem?!" Yinzhen listened to the message relayed by Erlu and others, feeling that something important had been missed.
etc!
Some people here are actually saying that he is a son-in-law who lives with his wife's family. Is it possible that, according to the custom here, the children of a son-in-law who lives with his wife's family take the man's surname?
“Little darling, these people are probably in their thirties. There are no other age groups, which is already very strange. In addition, many of these people are said to be sons-in-law who have married into the wife's family. If I’m not mistaken, their children have already been born.” Yinzhen suddenly thought that the children of sons-in-law who have married into the wife's family must take the wife's surname.
In the Qing Dynasty, unless a family was truly starving, they would never allow their son to become a live-in son-in-law. Because of this, Yinzhen always felt that there was something fishy about these people.
Fei Yanggu was taken aback. Yinzhen had actually thought of this. He instructed Bayan to investigate first, and if there was a problem, to have someone subdue him.
Qingyan held her teacup, looking down at the people being dragged out of the torture chamber. These people had been tortured to the point of being unrecognizable, but even so, they still hadn't uttered a word.
Saito was getting anxious, wanting to get more valuable information from the remaining prisoners. Feiyangu listened to Erlu's report briefly and stroked his smooth chin.
“You two shouldn’t bother anymore. Among these people, someone must have given instructions. There are two or three who truly know everything. They are probably assassins arranged by the powerful families. The rest are either following orders or have received a considerable sum of money,” Fei Yanggu said with difficulty.
All day long, they were interrogating and arresting suspects. Qingyan could only hurriedly have the chefs at Yuelai Inn prepare lunch and dinner and deliver them to everyone.
Inside the naval port, Fei Yanggu and others had a rule: on weekdays, they must gather in the dining hall for dinner.
Today, Fuquan didn't have time, and he was in the fishing village, his eyes burning with rage, hoping to catch something useful.
For the time being, no one could identify these people. One of them was someone Seto had met before, so Seto used this person as a breakthrough point in hopes of getting more information.
As soon as this person entered the interrogation room, he bit his tongue. Despite the efforts of Seto and the others to save him, he was unable to speak and even refused to open his mouth.
"Father, the problem is serious. That person bit off his own tongue and can't speak at all." E Shuo was troubled. Now it seemed that this person must have been arranged by someone.
The goal is to lead them all astray, which is not acceptable.
They had already gone to great lengths to find various pieces of evidence. If they were led astray and failed to complete Kangxi's secret decree, they would have to await Kangxi's punishment.
“Father-in-law, the people behind them don’t actually want to do anything; they just want to throw us into disarray and completely shatter the positions of my elder brother and me in Father’s eyes.” Yinzhen suddenly remembered this matter, a flash of inspiration in his mind.
Before the emperor returned to the capital, someone from the Imperial Guard delivered a message saying that Yinzhi had discussed matters with the Cao family for an hour, and Cao Yin had agreed to some things for Yinzhi.
Several months passed, and the Cao family made no further moves. Yinzhen had long forgotten about it. Now, upon reflection, he realized that this whole affair might have been orchestrated by the Cao family.
What? !
Qingyan looked at Yinzhen in surprise. Kangxi had already returned to the capital, so why was he still holding onto them?
"Fourth Brother, are you sure you're not mistaken?" Qingyan squinted her almond-shaped eyes, carefully listening to the sounds in the interrogation room.
The video footage inside the space was transmitted to a computer, and the sounds were analyzed, leading to a conclusion.
“Father, the people inside are not Koreans.” Qingyan denied another Korean spy.
The North Koreans they captured were actually people living in the border area. They rarely interacted with outsiders, so they were able to deceive everyone with fake identities and slip through the checkpoints.
"Huh?!" Fei Yanggu and the others exclaimed in surprise.
Qingyan was determined to eliminate all the hidden dangers this time.
"Father, I'm telling the truth. If you can take down these people, it shouldn't be a big problem!" Qingyan had to investigate these people's identities and dig out their families.
Originally, Yinzhen and others said that the children should not be harmed, but she believed that extraordinary measures should be taken in extraordinary times.
"Bayan, you go over there too." Fei Yanggu saw that Bayan had returned and quickly instructed Bayan to go over there.
Bayan accepted the order and went to the interrogation room, looking at the spies that Fei Yanggu had instructed him to keep a close eye on. These men still appeared honest and sincere, their faces completely devoid of any spies. Indeed, appearances can be deceiving.
"Master, this is a note sent back from the master!" Su Peisheng handed over a note, which Yinzhen opened.
Yinzhen felt that this interrogation was a hot potato, and no one wanted to get involved.
"My brother wouldn't be so confused, would he? Getting entangled with the Cao family?" Yinzhen looked at the handwriting on the note. It was neat and without a trace of panic. It must be a clue left by the other party.
"No way!" Qingyan quickly made an excuse for Yinti. "Fourth Brother, we must take the initiative and not let the other side lead us by the nose."
"What's the result of the interrogation?" Fuquan's head guard came over and looked at the group anxiously.
“We’ve already questioned them. According to their confessions, they have spies in other cities as well. Moreover, the spies from Japan are the most capable, and some have already climbed to high positions.” Fei Yanggu glanced at them. “Furthermore, there are clearly some servants from the capital who have been serving them.”
"Are you sure?" Fuquan's head bodyguard was stunned.
The other side has people in the capital, which might catch them off guard.
"I'm sure, and there are even a few people who are planning to frame my elder brother!" Yinzhen smiled coldly. These people were simply insatiable.
