Governor Li inquired once more, “Who were the individuals initially spreading falsehoods and later altering their confessions? Assist me in identifying them.” “Certainly,” Su Bin agreed, nodding.
He retrieved several documents from the stack of confessions and handed them to Governor Li.
“These individuals hold significant positions, with one appearing to be the chief. Nearly everyone in the bandit nest defers to him.”
Governor Li expedited the trial that night.
The following day, Governor Li solemnly informed Su Bin that he had been dispatched in advance by the emperor. He identified certain individuals as problematic and insisted on secretly bringing them back to the capital without divulging his early arrival to the imperial envoy trailing him.
After conveying this information, Governor Li scrutinized Su Bin. “Do you comprehend my reasons for doing this?” fre(e)novelkiss.com
Su Bin shook his head. “I don’t fully understand.”
Governor Li whispered, “The Emperor suspects the Public House harbors hidden motives. He specifically sent me to uncover the truth. The imperial envoy shares a close relationship with the Public House, and it could be detrimental if they learn of the investigation.”
Su Bin grasped the situation. “I understand, Governor Li. Your secret is safe with me.”
“If you discover any issues with these individuals, take them away. I’ll promptly expunge their names from the records.”
Governor Li smiled, patting Su Bin’s shoulder. “How should we erase them?” Su Bin suggested, “Just include them in the list of deceased individuals.”
“Nothing is more secure than the dead.”
Governor Li expressed satisfaction with Su Bin’s cooperation, patting his shoulder again. “Well done, Governor Su! I’ll make sure to speak highly of your efforts in front of the Emperor.”
Your future is limitless.
He never underestimated Su Bin’s ability to discern his identity. Su Bin, a person worthy of the Public House’s attention, was far from simple-minded.
Yet, rather than covertly delivering the individual he sought to the General Manor, Su Bin readily handed them over. This act suggested that Su Bin had not yet aligned himself with any particular faction.
Governor Li departed Shanglin Prefecture with satisfaction, taking those individuals with him.
On the second day following Governor Li’s departure, the imperial envoy arrived in Shanglin with a conspicuous entourage, bringing the emperor’s reward. Su Bin received them calmly, tactfully avoiding any mention of Governor Li’s clandestine visit.
Undoubtedly, the imperial envoy hailed from the Public House. The Public
House, now in control, dictated the personnel sent to handle such matters. Their reluctance to delegate this responsibility to others reflected their commitment to maintaining control.
Su Bin adhered to his preconceived plan and drafted a detailed memorial, aligning his explanation with what he had communicated to both the imperial envoy and Governor Li.
“I never anticipated such an enthusiastic response to the hero post I posted.”
“We had a sufficient number of people, each equipped with their own weapons, and they even arranged for their own sustenance and accommodations. The battle plan was entirely of their devising.”
“After our victory, I personally covered the expenses for the celebratory banquet, utilizing funds from my own pocket. Additionally, all spoils of war were distributed as compensation.”
“I refrained from requesting reimbursement, as I felt it would be awkward, and they might not comply. In fact, it might even lead to the opposite outcome.” “I believe it’s wiser not to scrutinize these heroes too closely.”
In essence, provoking these individuals would likely lead to unfavorable consequences for him.
Su Bin wished for the Emperor’s understanding regarding his predicament.
Despite the imperial envoy’s affiliation with the Public House, explicit instructions had been given not to pose challenges for Su Bin.
The transition proceeded seamlessly, and shortly thereafter, the imperial envoy transported the primary suspect back to the capital..
