Ying Wuji glanced at them and said, "I have the highest rank in the entire embassy, and I am standing. How can you sit? I am a great man, and all the officials are as unruly as you? Get out of here!"
Xun Zhiyin opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but was pulled up from his seat by Gongsun Di.
He could only swallow his words. According to the rules, what Ying Wuji said was not wrong. They had already prepared difficult problems for Ying Wuji, so there was naturally no need to reveal a flaw here.
Ying Wuji sat down slowly, glanced at everyone present, and then looked at Xun Zhiyin coldly: "Xun Zhiyin, explain, what's going on?"
Gongsun Di smiled and said, "Gong..."
Ying Wuji snorted coldly: "Did I ask you?"
Gongsun Di: “…”
Xun Zhiyin covered his swollen and painful cheek and gritted his teeth and said, "Sir! These people received the materials from Dagan and were protected by the embassy, but they gave up the interests of their motherland to other countries and worked for other countries privately. This is tantamount to treason and should be punished with flogging!"
"Treason? What a big hat!"
Ying Wuji threw a business contract directly at his face: "Open your eyes and take a good look. Is this treason?"
Xun Zhiyin picked up the business contract and knew without even looking at it that it was a business contract signed between the paper company and the bookstore. The content of the contract included selling paper to the bookstore at a price slightly higher than the cost price, and urgently seconding some skilled workers to the bookstore.

When he arrested the people from the paper shop just now, the shop owners also took out the business contract and showed it to him.
Xun Zhiyin bowed and said with a smile: "Sir! There are too many treacherous people in this world who exploit loopholes in the law. The Minister Gongsun is an elite of the Legalists. He can see through these people's tricks at a glance. Although they openly follow the laws of the country..."
"So they didn't break the law, right?"
Ying Wuji interrupted directly.
Xun Zhiyin choked: "Ah..."
Gongsun Di's eyebrows also jumped.
Ying Wuji's brows flashed a hint of ferocity: "It has not violated the law. Even if you have taken advantage of a loophole, it will only be effective if it is tried by the local government or the embassy. The highest-ranking official in the embassy is me. You are overstepping your authority by interrogating me privately. The crime of overstepping authority is punishable by flogging. Come! Bring the torture instruments!"
Xun Zhiyin was confused: "It's true that you have the highest rank, but so does Gongsun Shangshi..."
"Legal elite, right?"
Ying Wuji laughed grimly: "I am fighting against the elite!"
