Chapter 117: Knowing the Reason
"I pondered over and over again. What is the mystery of a letter from home? I desperately recalled the words I had transcribed, and finally put them together, only to find that there was something strange, and there were code words in it. "Pan Zhiyan is like a junior who answers the questions of the elders in a private school.
"You have a really good memory. Can you still recite what was written in that letter?" Li Mu's inquiry at this time was also like that of a teaching gentleman.
Pan Zhiyan also replied honestly, "I have been away for a long time, and I miss Xuantang very much. In addition, I don't know if Bao'er has made progress in her studies, whether she has entered the study, and when everything here is done, she plans to leave for her before the end of October. If there are twists and turns, the return date is undecided, and the trustee brings a silver ticket of ten taels for emergency use. I hereby respectfully ask for blessings. ”
Pan Zhiyan intermittently memorized the transcribed letter and deliberately changed a few words.
Liu Guofan listened and pondered on the side, where is this code word.
Although Duanmu Xu's poetry skills are weak, he now has an excellent memory, and after hearing Pan Zhiyan recite the letter, he silently recited it several times in his heart.
Since it's a code word, it must be in some of the words.
But what are the words?
Liu Guofan couldn't come up with it for a while, after all, he only listened to it once, and it was difficult to write down the whole article.
Li Mu took out this extremely important letter from his arms and handed it to Liu Guofan, who was still confused. This Shuntianfu Yin seemed to have obtained a treasure, so he quickly took it respectfully, spread it out gently, and read it carefully.
After reading it, Liu Guofan said with some excitement, "It's word for word." ”
Li Mu said with a smile, "Although I made a few mistakes, it is generally not bad, the key is the total number of words and the word order." Can Lord Liu see the mystery?"
Liu Guofan spread out the letter again, read it again, and said with a guilty face, "For a while, I haven't been able to break it, and I still hope that Master Li will advise." ”
Li Mu turned his head to Pan Zhiyan and said, "Little niece, where do you tell me where the code words are?"
After all, I still have to say it myself, this commander of the Zhenfu Division is really difficult to deal with, Pan Zhiyan thought, and then said in a low voice, "Back to Uncle Li, I also pondered for a long time, and found that there are fourteen squares per line on this letterhead. The first case of each line is connected together, which is the code word. ”
Liu Guofan lightly clicked the words on the letter paper with his finger and read them out, "Different, treasure, fast, before, un, time." It's really a big rebellion, and he is plotting to assassinate the prince of the dynasty. Just the right amount of anger belies a little embarrassment.
"It's really a big rebellion, so does Lord Liu want to arrest the suspect?" Li Mu's questioning made Liu Guofan difficult for a while.
ordered the arrest, that is, it was determined that the Pan family was related to the case. The Pan family is not only the Pan family, but also Concubine Pan, the eighth prince, and maybe even the fourth prince, and the others are Princess Xubai, and maybe Prince Yi. He is a Shuntian Mansion Yin, in the eyes of ordinary people, he is naturally high, but in the eyes of these people, it is really insignificant.
To determine that Pan Zhiyan is related to the assassination case is to stand on the opposite side of these forces. His official hat of Shuntian Mansion Yin can withstand such pressure.
He couldn't handle that pressure.
"Everything is subject to Master Li's arrangement. ”
Mingzhe protects himself, Liu Guofan muttered in his heart.
If you can't resist yourself, let's see if the commander of the Zhenfu Division can resist?
Li Mu stood up from the largest wooden chair in the main hall, his body still straight, still like a spear.
If others can't resist, he will naturally resist.
If others dare not check, he is naturally checking.
He, Li Mu, is still the sharpest sword in the emperor's hand, and he will kill whoever he points at.
However, at this time, Li Mu did not know the holy will. The emperor was furious at the assassination of the thirteen princes and ordered a thorough investigation, but now all kinds of human and physical evidence point to the Pan family. Does he check it or not?
He still clearly remembers that when the sacrificial case was investigated. Even if the national teacher Huangfu Chong was found, there were still many suspicions, but then the emperor's will was to suspend the investigation, and the national teacher was only left in the national teacher's mansion. Everything is too understatement.
But no matter what the emperor thinks, this time his sword will still be stabbed out after all. Only when the stab is out can those unsolved doubts be answered.
"The Zhenfu Department was ordered to thoroughly investigate the assassination of the prince Zhao Shicheng, and Pan Zhiyan exchanged letters with the murderer, and the code words of assassination were agreed upon. At the time of the crime, Pan Zhiyan was in Yibaozhai, whether she happened to be present or did it deliberately. The suspect Pan Zhiyan is now escorted to the Zhenfu Division for further examination. ”
As soon as Li Mu's words came out, Liu Guofan's forehead began to sweat. This is a declaration of war against the Pan family. Whether he wins or loses, the next days of his Shuntian Mansion Yin will be difficult.
Some people sweat on their heads, while others have fire in their eyes.
The second son of the Pan family stepped out, stood in front of the little sister, and said coldly, "Lord Li, my little sister has already explained the cause and effect of the matter very clearly. Before, I was here in the Shuntian Mansion to assist in the investigation of the case, but now I don't think there is any need for this. Little sister, let's go, let's go home. ”
The weak scholar who has no power to restrain the chicken, the second son of the Pan family who passed on to Daxian in the name of poetry and writing, is not afraid of half of the commander of the Zhenfu Division at this time.
No matter how weak a person is, there are times when he is strong. When there is no longer fear in the heart, courage naturally follows.
"Are you able to go?" Li Mu's voice was very cold, the performance of the second son of the Pan family was slightly unexpected, after all, he was a child of the Pan family, and he finally did not insult the lintel.
"Look up to the sky and go out with a smile, how can my generation be a boneless person. "Xu is poetry is really coming, Xu is to suppress a trace of panic in his heart.
Pan Ziyue stretched out his hand and grabbed Pan Zhiyan's hand, and the two turned around, turned their backs to Li Mu, and headed towards the door.
Even if behind him is the most terrifying person in the world, the person from the edict.
No, behind them were more than just the commanders of the Pacification Division. At this time, there was one more person, a young man from Huaishuo Military Town.
When Duanmu Xu heard that Pan Ziyue was going to take Pan Zhiyan away, he knew in his heart that this matter would not be good. Under the command of the Zhenfu Division, where can the Pan family brothers and sisters parry.
What the hell is he going to do?
In love, he and the Pan family finally have a friendship, whether it is Pan Datou or the two in front of him. Yu Li, he had better be wise and protect himself, he has his own grand plans to do.
However, he finally took two steps forward and stood behind the Pan family brothers and sisters, in front of the commander of the Suppression Division.
"You're good. Li Mu rarely appreciated a young man. But the young man in front of him was really full of admiration.
"Let them go. Duanmuxu's answer was simple. It was impossible for him to let Pan Zhiyan be escorted to the Zhenfu Division, although he didn't want to do anything with the person in front of him.
The brothers and sisters of the Pan family, who were about to leave, heard the conversation behind them, turned around, and saw the figure protecting them, and they were really grateful.
What the eldest brother said in the letter is good, this person is really worthy of deep friendship.
At this time, Duanmu Xu didn't have the heart to feel the grateful gaze cast by the Pan family brothers and sisters, but concentrated on slowly urging the aura to protect his body.
He didn't know what kind of cultivation this commander of the Pacification Division was, but he was sure that he must be much higher than himself.
