After marrying, I spoiled His Majesty the Holy Monarch

Chapter 205 Spy?

Xuan Yi's face was full of interest, appreciating the shocked and unbelievable expression of the other party.

In fact, he wasn't too sure whether Guanshi Qiu was a spy sent by another country, but he was just saying that intentionally to defraud Yuan Ming.

Now it seems that Yuan Ming really doesn't know that Guanshi Qiu is very likely to be related to spies from other countries, so what will he hold?
At this moment, Yuan Ming's brain has been bombarded by the horror bomb of "spies from other countries".

If Guanshi Qiu was really a spy, then what he hadn't figured out before would make sense now.

But now the question came, whether he should tell Xuan Yi the truth, he knew very well that telling Xuan Yi was equivalent to telling Rong Xuesheng.

But he was unwilling to let Rong Xuesheng know, but if he didn't say anything, he would be covering up a spy. This is a felony equivalent to treason, and it would mean ransacking the family.

Yuan Ming now had a genuinely conflicted expression on his face. Seeing this, Xuan Yi understood that it was time for him to speak up.

So he continued to press, "Huh? Could it be that Yuan Shoujiang knew that the other party was a spy, and deliberately concealed it?"

As soon as these words came out, Yuan Ming, who was instantly shocked, came back to his senses. How could he care so much at this time?

"No, no, no, I really don't know that Guanshi Qiu is a spy sent by another country."

"I just inadvertently pinched some handles on Guanshi Qiu, and he owed me a favor, which forced him to treat me preferentially."

"Master Xuan, please tell the Prime Minister that I am absolutely loyal to the Holy Cang Empire, and I have absolutely no disobedience, let alone the idea of ​​covering up spies. I was also completely deceived."

As he said that, Yuan Ming took the opportunity to express his loyalty. At this time, personal grievances are small, and the most important thing is to protect the future of himself and his family.

After listening to what Yuan Ming said, Xuan Yi also took advantage of the situation and said, "Since General Yuan Shou has said so, I am willing to believe you."

"Master Xuan, please don't bully me. The prime minister has already given me the post of guard. I am just an ordinary citizen now. You should call me Yuan Ming."

At this time, Yuan Ming didn't dare to put on a high profile anymore, so naturally he had to stay low and do his best to save his life.

Regarding this, Xuan Yi naturally didn't care, as long as the other party was willing to speak.

"Yuan Ming, if you want to save yourself, the only way is to tell me what's wrong with Guanshi Qiu?"

At this moment, Yuan Ming was of course very cooperative. Taking a deep breath, he said slowly: "A few days before the mine collapsed, I happened to meet Guanshi Qiu going to the Qiannan Mountains. His behavior was a bit suspicious, but I didn't think much about it at the time, so I didn't think about it. Didn't study it carefully."

"Until the rocks on the mountain suddenly rolled down, and the mud and rocks crushed the entire mine vein. When I ordered the soldiers to save people, I accidentally caught a glimpse of Guanshi Qiu's mood, but I didn't pay much attention to it at the moment of saving people."

"Until after the incident, I suddenly remembered it, so I asked Steward Qiu to question him, but he seemed quite calm, and I didn't find out anything."

"Afterwards, I conducted a secret investigation and found that the fallen rocks had obvious signs of wear and tear... I originally wanted to report this matter, but Mr. Liang, who was in charge of the investigation at the time, had already classified the collapse as an accident. It’s better to think about one thing more than one thing less, so..."

Hearing this, Xuan Yi finally understood the ins and outs, but he was still quite unhappy about Yuan Ming's failure to report the matter.

"Do you know how many troubles have been caused because of your concealment?"

Seeing Xuan's uneasy expression, Yuan Ming resolutely admitted his mistake, "Yes, I was wrong for not reporting what I knew, but those officials are also responsible for not investigating carefully and drawing conclusions at will."

At this time, if you don't quickly find a few blamers, wouldn't the responsibility be on him?

Yuan Ming is also quite shrewd.
