Chapter 34: The clouds are deep and I don't know where

Li Fugong did not expect Deputy Envoy Wang Daozhi to give any pertinent advice on the problems brought about by the three letters on the case, and he could just not add fuel to the fire.

When a major matter is undecided, he always has a place to go, not only to temporarily calm his mind, but also to get the insights of some bystanders in many cases, and to wake him up as an authority.

The Privy Council envoy Li Fugong was dressed in civilian clothes and rode a small sedan chair towards Juetai Temple in the western suburbs. The incense is still prosperous, and the majesty of the Buddha is as usual, but he is not here to worship the Buddha and make a wish, but to find someone. In the squatter room, there was indeed a person, but unfortunately it was not the person he was looking for.

In Master Fayin's dormitory, Li Fugong was slightly surprised to see Li Mu, the commander of the Zhenfu Division, holding a letter in his hand.

"Master Li?"

"Master Li?"

The two Lords of Li called each other Lord Li at the same time, both with surprise.

"I wonder why Master Li came to visit Master Fayin?" asked Li Muxian first.

"It's just a private matter. Li Fugong glanced at the words on the envelope, which turned out to be a letter for himself. "Others may not know, but Master Li should know about my personal relationship with Master Fa Yin. ”

"It's Li who is abrupt, the Lord and Master Fa Yin are both fellow villagers and the same year, and their personal friendship is so deep that they are not comparable to others. ”

Li Fugong stretched out his hand, and the meaning was very clear.

Li Mu also immediately handed over the envelope, "I just arrived, and I happened to see a letter, and I didn't have time to open it." ”

"Master Li is investigating the case here?" Li Fugong did not satisfy Li Mu's curiosity, but instead asked Li Mu why he was here.

"Even if you can't investigate the case, you have no clue, so you walk around. Although he didn't ask about the political affairs and military affairs of the DPRK and China, Li Mu also heard about the Huai Famine, and then remembered the situation in the DPRK and China.

The person was not there, the investigation was unsettled, and Li Mu had to leave in a huff. In the previous sacrificial case, there was no progress in tracking down Nashen Bukong, so he turned his head to investigate the person who deliberately left horseshoe prints and pine toner powder outside the Hulan paddock, but he also had no way to start. In the capital, there are too many horses and a small amount of pine ink, and the last time I checked Li Jinzeng's methods, it would never be effective.

As a last resort, he wanted to start with Master Fa Yin again, although this outsider had no doubts, the timing and method of his puja were too coincidental. It is normal for Li Fugong to visit Master Fayin, but if this privy councillor is added to this case, will it be a little different.

Li Fugong didn't care what the commander of the Zhenfu Division had in mind, he opened the letter left by Fa Yin in the dormitory, and there were only a few words in it, saying that he "is a bowl is a career, and he spends his life with fate." There are temples in the mountains, and there is no home", and the persuasion of old friends is to "go to the poor place of water and sit and watch the clouds rise." ”

Li Fugong had to smile bitterly, you, an outsider, can wait to sit and watch the clouds rise, and in this court situation, how easy can I get out of the matter. If you hadn't been disheartened back then, you might be the one who is busy with this political matter today. Thinking of the once suave genius, now this mage with a shiny head, he inevitably sighed again.

Fa Yin did not disclose where he was going in the letter, and the presiding officer of the temple did not know, Li Fugong returned empty-handed, and had to face the problem on the case alone.

......

Li Fugong returned to the Privy Council without a fruitful visit, but Li Mu appeared in the Qianqing Palace.

"There is still no news of Shen Bukong, and there is no progress from the people who are doing the game outside the paddock. You went to the Fa Yin of Juetai Temple for verification, but this person wandered away. After listening to Li Mu's report, Zhao Tianyin couldn't help frowning, obviously dissatisfied with the progress of the case.

"Qiqi Sheng, when Weichen went to Juetai Temple, he happened to meet Li Fugong, the privy councilor. Li Mu only stated this matter and did not make personal judgments.

"Li Fugong and Fa Yin have been friends for decades, which is not surprising. Zhao Tianyin naturally gave a conclusion.

The national teacher on the side, as usual, still gave his opinion after listening, "Qi Qi Sheng, this case has passed for a long time, with the ability of Master Li, if there is still a place to break through, there must be a result." Now that we've gotten to the point where I'm just wondering if we've overlooked something important. ”

"Is the national teacher saying that I am investigating the case in the wrong direction?" Li Mu was slightly surprised, this time he found out Li Jinzeng and Wu Enyu, and they were also very fast, as for the people behind them, they were indeed cunning and abnormal.

"Don't get me wrong, Lord Li, I have just rearranged the links in this case. According to Li Jin's confession, there were no more than 1,000 paper bags of pine ink powder used in the crossbow drill that day, which was also confirmed by the confession of the schoolman. Even if pine toner is helpful for praying for rain, is that enough for a thousand bags?"

Thinking of the pouring rain that day, Zhao Tianyin and Li Mu both shook their heads.

"When the sudden rain came to me, I would look for the cause, and I would pay attention to the fluctuations of the clouds, and then Master Li would pay attention to the pine ink powder. If there had been rain in the forecast, we wouldn't have paid attention to the clouds. "The emperor is reversing the original judgment.

"The national teacher suspects that it is ......" Zhao Tianyin and Li Mu are both extremely intelligent people, and they thought of the key point at this moment.

Huangfu nodded again.

"What's the motive?" Zhao Tianyin seemed to be asking himself and asking them.

Qin Tianjian is what he wants, he is an honest official, obsessed with celestial phenomena, never participates in political affairs, and does not form a party for personal gain, why is he so?

Zhao Tianyin had no answer, and Li Mu had no answer for a while. In their eyes, Lao He is a person who eats the ancients, neither has a wife, nor even two people in the house, and lives an extremely dull life. For whom could he do such a rebellious thing.

If the three of them used the unforeseen circumstances as an excuse, the three of them would definitely not believe it. Every time there is a major sacrifice, John Ho is very cautious about the celestial phenomena, and if he is not sure, he will observe it many times, and will note it in the newspaper. And this time, Cheng Ling, He Ruowang's conclusion about the rain was that there was no rain that day, and he was very sure.

Zhao Tianyin wanted to know the answer, and Li Mu would give him the answer.

When Zhao Tianyin was still thinking about the various strange things about the Chengling case, Li Mu had already rushed to the Zhenghe Mansion of Qin Tianjian with Fei Yuwei. He Mansion is not big, but today it seems too empty. When Li Mu and the others rushed into the mansion, there was no one in the entire He Mansion. Only one person was lying on the desk in the main hall, with a delicate porcelain cup on the right hand side with a starry sky pattern, which was quite elegant, and on the left hand side was a neatly stacked manuscript "Guantianlu".

Li Mu probed his neck with his hand, and his eyes became very cold. When he returned to the Qianqing Palace to report, Zhao Tianyin's eyes were even colder.

After Huang Fuzhong and Li Mu retired, Zhao Tianyin was silent and kept pacing. At this time, Gonggong Gui, who came in carefully from outside the door to serve, did not dare to approach, so he could only stand by from a distance. He knew that this was before Long Yan was furious, and the Thunder Fire would then erupt. Sure enough, in the entire Qianqing Palace, the sound of clanging kept coming.

Xu was tired, Zhao Tianyin supported the golden carved dragon wooden chair again, and sat on it. At this time, Gonggong Gui dared to step up and handed over the prepared tea. "Holy Ones, please calm your wrath. ”

Zhao Tianyin took the tea and drank it all, without the slightest appearance of tasting tea, "Old Guizi, sixteen years ago, when the Great Constitution was first established, I can understand that the remnants of the previous dynasty or people with bad intentions disturbed the capital. Now, after all these years, right under my eyelids, the black hand has reached out to my children, but I am still in the dark. At this point, he slapped the armrest of the wooden chair fiercely.

Gonggong Gui's complexion changed slightly, and he immediately returned to a cautious state, "Now that the Great Constitutional State is prosperous, those young people are just killing themselves. ”

"Lao Gui, you are too kind-hearted, otherwise you wouldn't have been hit by such a knife sixteen years ago. ”

"The old slave deserves to die, the old slave deserves to die. Father-in-law Gui hurriedly knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing.

"Old Gui, why are you doing this? I don't mean to reproach you at all. Hurry up. The anger in Xu is heart was almost vented, Zhao Tianyin stood up again, and it was the supreme emperor of the Great Constitutional State, "Since you want to fight, no matter where you are sacred, let the horse come." ”
