Sure enough, the so-called "evidence" was found by Xu Qi'an....

For some reason, Li Miaozhen was not surprised by this result, but just glanced coldly at the female ghost Su Su beside her.

Su Su pretended not to see and focused on playing with a strand of her hair.

The female ghost comrade was also puzzled. She guaranteed that she was lazy, but the fact was that this little copper gong took the evidence right under her nose.

Li Miaozhen took a deep breath. "Governor, there is a hidden secret in this case..."

Governor Zhang waved his hand and interrupted her, saying in an indifferent tone, "General Li, you are just a wandering general and not a member of the court. You have no right to interfere in court affairs.

"I respect your actions because of your achievements in suppressing bandits, which is why I allowed you to enter the post station."

"Cough!"

Xu Qi'an coughed loudly, attracting the attention of the three people present. "Governor, you might as well listen to what she has to say."

He believed that Li Miaozhen's support for Yang Chuannan might have personal emotional factors, but she was not a blindly ignorant person. So he wanted to hear what she had to say.

Governor Zhang and Jiang Lvzhong exchanged glances. "Alright!"

Li Miaozhen nodded to Xu Qi'an and pondered for a few seconds before saying, "I have known Yang Chuannan for over a year and we have worked together to suppress bandits several times. We have a good relationship. But I am not a person who is unclear about right and wrong, and I understand the dangers and fickleness of human nature.

"I believe in Yang Chuannan, not only because of our interactions and fighting side by side. I arranged for ghosts to monitor him through a secret channel after I learned that the court sent a governor to investigate him in Yunzhou.

"And at that time, Yang Chuannan did not receive any secret messages from the Qi faction."

When Jiang Lvzhong heard about the ghost surveillance, he raised an eyebrow.

"How did you know that I was coming to investigate Yang Chuannan in Yunzhou?" Governor Zhang stared sharply at her.

"Reporting to Governor, we also discovered a traitor, and it was me...." Xu Qi'an thought ashamedly.

The fragments of the earth book transmitted the message thousands of miles away with almost no delay. Li Miaozhen knew about it earlier than Yang Chuannan, which was reasonable.

She listened to what the third person said and did the surveillance.

Li Miaozhen spoke frankly, "This is my secret."

"Yang Chuannan is a fifth-grade warrior. I'm afraid your ghost surveillance can't deceive him." Xu Qi'an changed the topic nervously, while feeling a sense of relief that things were finally going as he expected.

He informed the second person in advance to let the second person cooperate with their investigation. Although the relationship between the second person and Yang Chuannan exceeded his expectations, the result was not bad.

"What's the point of knowing? As long as he is always within the sight of the ghosts, my goal is achieved." Li Miaozhen said.

Xu Qi'an nodded in agreement. It's like in the previous life, people could find that the surveillance cameras on the roadside were monitoring them, but there was no way to do anything about it unless they smashed them with a stone.

If Yang Chuannan smashed the "surveillance", Li Miaozhen would not support him so much.

Does Yang Chuannan have a wife? Wouldn't the ghosts have watched countless videos? Fortunately, Master Shen Shu is sleeping, otherwise I would also become the protagonist of domestic videos.... Thinking of this, Xu Qi'an's heart suddenly became complicated.

"Is that all?" Jiang Lvzhong asked.

"I am a disciple of the Tianzong Sect." Li Miaozhen said word by word, "I can see through Yang Chuannan's true nature."

What does that mean? Xu Qi'an noticed that Jiang Lvzhong fell into contemplation and frowned.

"The Tianzong Sect cultivates the unity of heaven and man. Haven't you already known that?" Li Miaozhen glanced at the female ghost Su Su, who was seeking attention, and then looked at Xu Qi'an.

The former lowered her head in shame, and the latter asked, "And then?"

Jiang Lvzhong took over the topic and sighed, "To achieve the unity of heaven and man, one must first forget all emotions. The so-called heaven and earth are not benevolent and treat all things as straw dogs. It is said that the higher the cultivation level of a Tianzong Taoist, the more they resemble a stone person, without joy or sorrow, without love or desire. Even if their own son dies, they will not feel any sadness."

Then I will take care of the children we have in the future.... Xu Qi'an subconsciously glanced at Li Miaozhen, and the latter raised an eyebrow, feeling that there was malice in the eyes of the little copper gong.

Jiang Lvzhong continued, "To achieve the unity of heaven and man, one must comprehend the changes in the rules of heaven and earth and integrate the myriad of phenomena into oneself. Tianzong disciples understand what it means to investigate things and acquire knowledge through practice.

"They have a very strong intuition about qualities such as goodness, evil, and greed."

Isn't this a human lie detector... No, the human lie detector is the technique of the Bureau of Heavenly Masters. Tianzong disciples should be the scum appraisal device? Xu Qi'an nodded suddenly, finally understanding why Li Miaozhen trusted Yang Chuannan so much.

"But the divination technique of the Bureau of Heavenly Masters still has its flaws, and you...." Xu Qi'an chose his words carefully.

"As a practitioner of the Tianzong Sect, one should have absolute confidence in one's own intuition." Li Miaozhen said lightly. This is a matter of Dao heart. If one doubts one's own intuition, it is doubting oneself, and one will eventually die from inner demons.

"Then appraise me and see my qualities." Xu Qi'an said.Li Miaozhen shook her head, "We haven't spent enough time together, it's a long process." She paused, then smirked, "Your quality is written all over your face."

Damn it...

"After realizing he was caught in the vortex of the Qi Party and the Church of the God of Witchcraft, Yang Chuannan has been trying to save himself. He has been investigating the Qi Party members within the Commanding Officer's Bureau while looking for evidence left by Zhou Min.

"If he can prove his innocence, that would be best. If not, he will destroy the so-called 'evidence' to protect himself." Li Miaozhen calmly revealed Yang Chuannan's plan.

...That's reasonable. If I were in this situation, I would definitely prioritize self-preservation... then investigate the case based on my abilities... Xu Qi'an nodded in agreement.

Governor Zhang squinted his eyes, recalling the subtle hostility Yang Chuannan had shown him along the way. In Yang's eyes, he, the governor, was just a troublemaker.

Xu Qi'an picked up his teacup, took a sip, and shook his head, "General Li, words alone are not enough. We have evidence. Even if Yang Chuannan is not the mastermind, as the Commanding Officer, he must take responsibility."

It has always been the rule that the person in charge must take responsibility when something goes wrong in their department.

"Moreover, the Bureau of Heavenly Masters' technique of observing Qi cannot be used as evidence, and your method of understanding the world through objects is even less convincing to the court."

For those above the fourth rank, the Bureau of Heavenly Masters' technique of observing Qi cannot be used as evidence, because while the technique itself does not lie, the practitioners can. Similarly, the Daoist Heavenly Sect's methods do not lie, but Li Miaozhen can.

Xu Qi'an walked over to the ghost girl Su Su, pinched her face, and her beautiful face, as delicate as a flower, immediately caved in.

"What are you doing?" Su Su's face changed... no, it was distorted.

"It's still made of paper after all." Xu Qi'an patted the beauty's shoulder, "Su Su, do you want a living body? Not possession, but a body without a master."

"A dead person?" Su Su glanced at him and sneered, "A discarded shell can only be used for a while before it rots."

"No, a real body without a master, without a soul." Xu Qi'an said.

Su Su looked at him incredulously.

"Song Qing from the Bureau of Heavenly Masters and I are old acquaintances. He is conducting life alchemy, with the ultimate goal of creating a body indistinguishable from a normal person. Moreover, he has made significant breakthroughs recently." Xu Qi'an said seriously.

"Is... is that true..."

Perhaps the reputation of the Bureau of Heavenly Masters had an effect, Su Su began to show interest and longing.

"Of course it's true. As long as you choose to follow me, I can definitely get you a clean, masterless body. As for the problem of nourishing yin energy, I can figure out a solution."

Anyway, it's all about bluffing. This is how you deceive girls.

First, paint them a big picture, envision the future, offer enough benefits and promises, and they will let you do whatever you want because of that seemingly unreachable goal.

By the time they realize they've been deceived, it's too late.

"Cough, cough!"

Governor Zhang coughed, reminding Xu Qi'an not to stray off topic. The matter of wooing the ghost girl could be discussed later.

Xu Qi'an understood the leader's intention. He had laid enough groundwork and tentatively asked, "General Li, since you said that Yang Chuannan and you have secretly investigated the Commanding Officer's Bureau, do you have any clues?"

If not, please leave...

Li Miaozhen seemed to have prepared her answer long ago. In the candlelight, she slightly lowered her head, her long, curled eyelashes catching the light, her beautiful eyes hidden in the shadows.

"Not long after Zhou Min's death, I worked with Yang Chuannan to investigate the Commanding Officer's Bureau. We finally identified a target, who is also a member of the Qi Party. But he is very slippery and seemed to sense the danger. Before we could close the net, he disappeared."

That's as good as saying nothing... Aren't you good at finding people... You were able to find Zhou Baihu... Xu Qi'an muttered to himself, shaking his head.

Governor Zhang frowned, "Who is this person?"

"Just like Zhou Min, he is a member of the Commanding Officer's Bureau, in charge of the treasury." Li Miaozhen answered.

To verify the truth of Li Miaozhen's words was actually quite simple, just like when they exposed Yang Yingying's lies. Xu Qi'an immediately asked:

"Can you provide information such as his name, age, appearance, home address, and his relatives and friends?"

"Of course, but I don't have it with me. I will send someone to deliver it to the post station tomorrow." Li Miaozhen said, "As for his appearance, I can draw it for you."

Governor Zhang nodded and ordered someone to bring pen, ink, paper, and inkstone. Su Su, whose face was distorted, obediently ground the ink, but it seemed that her heart was not in it. She would glance at Xu Qi'an from time to time, then lower her head in thought.

After a while, Li Miaozhen finished the portrait.

The man was a thin middle-aged man with sharp eyes.

He was the owner of the dog meat shop at No. 15, Huang Bo Street.
