Chapter 116: Moving with Affection
Liu Guofan was speculating wildly, and Duanmu Xu slowly withdrew the aura outside. Spiritual energy is bred from within, and the amount of spiritual energy is the root of the struggle of the monks in the lower realm. Under normal circumstances, a practitioner would never consume these spiritual energy for no reason.
In this main hall, those who want to see have seen, those who should have said have been said, and those who should be helped have been helped. Everyone can be regarded as having gained, except for Liu Guofan, who was stunned.
Maybe if it weren't for Li Mu's reappearance, Pan Ziyue could go back to the house first and then make the next plans.
After Li Mu confirmed that the letter was from Pan Zhiyan in the Yamen of the Zhenfu Division, he decided to come to the Shuntian Mansion to see if he could open the gap from the daughter of the Pan family.
Sure enough, someone from the Pan family came, but what about the people behind the prisoners of the Guozi Prison? Why hasn't there been any movement yet? Li Mu thought as he walked into the main hall of the Shuntian Mansion.
When it comes to important cases involving the royal family, Liu Guofan naturally hopes that someone will take over as soon as possible, so when he saw Li Mu coming back again, he thought that if he was running back and forth like this, this Zhenfu Division should have something to gain, so that he would have an explanation for the emperor.
Sure enough, as soon as Li Mu entered the main hall, his eyes fell on Pan Zhiyan, and he asked directly, "Niece Pan, I want to hear you tell me about the situation at that time. ”
Li Mu's expression was relaxed, but in Pan Zhiyan's eyes, it was cold. The commander of the Pacification Division came to ask him again, presumably he had already read the words written on the letter, and even confirmed that it was written by himself.
In the hearts of the Daxian people, the Zhenfu Division seems to be omnipotent, especially in the investigation of cases.
Pan Zhiyan glanced at the second brother beside her, and was a little hesitant, whether to explain all the situations she had encountered. Pan Ziyue saw the gaze cast by the little sister, and after a little calculation, he nodded slightly.
Duanmu Xu watched from the sidelines, and as soon as the commander of the Zhenfu Division entered the main hall, his eyes were locked on Pan Zhiyan, really like a wolf waiting to be hunted. He wondered how he would deal with being targeted by such a wolf.
Pan Zhiyan's response was very direct, "Uncle Li, I was frightened yesterday, and I just remembered that since I went to Fenglai Pavilion, I came across a stall that wrote letters from home. Someone pestered me to transcribe a letter to her, and with some ink on his hands in the middle, he went to Fenglai Pavilion, where he met Master Liu. ”
When she said this, Pan Zhiyan also looked at Liu Guofan who was not far away.
Shuntianfu Yin thought to himself, you explain the matter, what do you ask me to do.
Li Mu was noncommittal, and Pan Zhiyan continued, "When I came out of Fenglai Pavilion, I went to Yibao Zhai. When Yibaozhai came out, the thirteen princes had already been stabbed. ”
Li Mu was still noncommittal, but Liu Guofan became more and more shocked when he heard it, could this Pan family really have something to do with the assassination case? He naturally remembered the letter on the murderer's body, and knew that the assassination was in front of Yibao Zhai.
However, he couldn't resist asking no questions. Although this is an opportunity to grab merit, it is very likely that it will never recover. If in the end, the emperor decides that the Pan family is not involved, then he will face the monstrous anger of the Pan family.
Mingzhe protects himself, not seeking merit, but seeking no fault, Liu Guofan muttered in his heart.
Pan Zhiyan looked up at Li Mu, and when she saw that the other party was still waiting, she pondered for a moment and continued, "Since I found out about the assassination of the Thirteen Princes, somehow, I have been a little panicked. For I saw the murderer who had fallen to the ground, as if he were the one who had pestered me to transcribe the letter. ”
Liu Guofan thought to himself, it was really right to leave these two people on the road by mistake.
Li Mu finally spoke, "Then you follow the carriage behind, thinking about stealing the letter back." ”
Pan Zhiyan lowered her head and replied softly, "Yes." Uncle Lee. Because I'm afraid that I won't be able to say it at all. "It's like a junior who has done something wrong and admits his mistake to the elders in the family.
Liu Guofan is really eye-opening, involving the assassination of the prince, the suspected murderer is like admitting his mistake to his elders at home. If it were someone else, he would have been tortured a long time ago.
Duanmu Xu knew why Pan Zhiyan had such a change in attitude. If others can't hear it, that's because he doesn't want others to hear it, and he can naturally hear it. The conversation between the brothers and sisters of the Pan family, one is to tell that they have a handle in the hands of the Zhenfu Division, and the other is to tell them that a letter was taken away by the Zhenfu Division in the Yonghe Palace last night.
In such a situation, it is futile to try to hide it. Why don't you go with the flow and admit it first, and then try to clear the suspicion later.
These children of the family are not stupid people, and they all respond as the situation changes.
Duanmu Xu thought that in the future, if these people follow him, friendship is one thing, and I am afraid that the benefits will not be less. One by one, they are all tied to the interests of the family.
Li Mu was indeed like an elder in the family, and he was not angry at this time, and continued to ask, "You are afraid that you will not be able to get the letter alone, so you have found a helper." ”
After Li Mu finished speaking, everyone's eyes turned to Duanmu Xu.
This is a problem for the Pan brothers and sisters. If it is, then it is to drag this white god into the fire pit. If not, how can it be explained that at this critical juncture, there is such an outsider to follow him.
But the question is, even if this white divine shot is not a helper, who will believe it?
Pan Zhiyan cast an apologetic look at Duanmu Xu and replied slowly, "At that time, I was confused, and I wanted to get back the letter that might cause trouble, but I happened to see the white team rate of Huaishuo Military Town, so I begged him to help me." ”
"No wonder I found traces of aura in that carriage? If I hadn't arrived in time at that time, would you have succeeded?" Li Mu's gaze swept over Pan Zhiyan and Duanmu Xu.
Pan Zhiyan hurriedly replied obediently, "It's all the little niece who was confused for a while, and I hope Uncle Li won't blame it." ”
If it is really the teaching of the elders to the younger generations in the family, the interrogation and admitting mistakes may end here, and the rest is the parents' shortcomings.
It's a pity that this is the main hall of the Shuntian Mansion, and this is not the elder of the family, but the commander of the pacification department of the Great Constitution.
Li Mu then asked, "Then what do you think is wrong with this letter?"
It's a tricky question.
If it's just a transcription, will you find a problem? Probably not. Most of the things that don't take care of you can't remember. It's deliberate, and you may not forget it if you want to.
Pan Zhiyan was silent for a moment, and then slowly replied, "Uncle Li, when I was transcribing, I was thinking about helping. When I came out of Yibaozhai, I just felt that this letter was inappropriate for the murderer, so I thought about getting the letter back quickly and not causing trouble to the family. The tone is still that of a junior who has done something wrong, hoping to get the understanding of the elders.
"Well, no one wants to cause trouble to the family, let alone the emperor. But now the thirteen princes are lying on the bed, and their lives are in danger. "Li Mu is not a kind elder after all.
Seeing that Pan Zhiyan looked a little silent, Li Mu urged, "Go on." ”
"When I transcribed it, I didn't pay much attention to it. Last night, in the backyard of this mansion, I thought about it for a night, and I had some eyebrows, only to find out that this letter contained a mystery, and I hope that Uncle Li will investigate it thoroughly. ”
"What's the mystery?" Li Mu asked.
Liu Guofan on the side wanted to hear it, and Duanmu Xu also wanted to know.
