The three hundred and seventy-seventh round

If Hou Junji was not the initiator, but only saw that Qin Ying was grounded in Xihuaguan, so he inserted a pole in the middle, then the silk book test questions he sent someone to put in Qin Ying's wing room were fake?

The silk book that caused the people in the audience to scramble for it has not left a trace now. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info is not able to distinguish the similarities and differences between the two silk books just by the impressions of the lifters.

Qin Ying's mind was infinitely entangled by this leaking case, and she was hungry but didn't even want to eat the refreshments in front of her.

Li Daozong was amused by Qin Ying and regained his intelligence corresponding to the Shangshu of the Criminal Department. He asked his subordinates to bring the person whose confession was inconsistent with that of Guangping Daoist into the wing room again for interrogation.

Unexpectedly, after a while, his subordinates came back and reported that the man had just fainted in the Sanqing Hall because he had been in retreat for too long.

Qin Ying sneered when he heard this: "He was afraid of being held accountable by us, so he made this decision." The firewood room dragged into the backyard was closed, and he poured cold water to see if he could pretend to be there. "Her heart has always been generous, but she cannot tolerate betrayers.

Li Daozong glanced at Qin Ying silently, and suddenly felt that under her unwavering appearance, a raging wind and rain were brewing.

After a while, his men came into the compartment and reported, "The man is awake." The transcript was laid out in pen and ink, asking him who he was, but he bit his tongue and tried to kill himself, but fortunately he found it in time, and we stuffed him with a ball of cloth. Do the two adults think it's better to torture him to confess, or to keep him alive without food or drink? ”

Li Daozong did not immediately express any opinion on this, obviously wanting to go to the firewood room to see the man's description for himself.

Qin Ying immediately followed.

Li Daozong, who is a three-grade scholar, has not set foot in the firewood room for several years, thinking that it will be full of firewood and disorderly, but he underestimated the two Taoists in charge of Xihuaguan, and the firewood room is also in charge of the warehouse.

After more than ten years of retreat, the core of the man's body had already been hollowed out. However, Li Daozong's subordinates, just in case, still tied him up with a rope. He gasped and leaned against the wall, his face resolute in his face.

After Qin Ying squinted and approached him, he leaned down and pulled out the lump of arrowroot cloth with his left hand, and threw it beside him with a bang. Two fingers carefully pinched his jaw as if it were dirty, and with a little skillful force, this part of the bone was removed:

"If you confess honestly, you can still have a way to live. Otherwise, when you are sent to the prison of the Criminal Department, it is still light to extract a confession, as long as you can't catch the real culprit, you will be a dead lamb, and then the Lord will never use money to redeem yourself for your sin. ”

She exuded an indescribable aura around her, which surprised Li Daozong, who was standing behind her. But he was immediately relieved, how could Qin Ying, who dared to grab the white blade empty-handed, be a kind person inside and out?

"If I did, wouldn't I be the one who died in the end?" The man stared at Qin Ying and spit out these words with great difficulty.

"If you behave well, you will still be a Taoist of my temple." Qin Ying raised his eyebrows and waited for him to make this choice.

The man was silent for a while, his eyes drooped to the ground and he sighed gloomily and said, "Xiaodao has a sentence to say to the viewer alone. He has been in this temple for more than a year, and he has seen Qin Ying's ruthlessness, and he has also seen Qin Ying's kindness and tolerance, and he remembers how resolute and resolute she was in dealing with those disobedient black sheep at the beginning of her tenure.

Her words have never been groundless, and she will not give herself and others room to regret anything she says.

He had always longed for her, but he betrayed her in the end. Just because of the things that look tempting outside the body.

Qin Ying turned his head and winked at Li Daozong, signaling that he could handle it independently, only to see Li Daozong wave his hand helplessly, and let the group of people leave the firewood room together. There were only two people left in the huge space, and Qin Ying sat down and waited for him to tell him everything he knew.

"That crazy guy Gao Yi is in collusion with us." The man spoke with a hesitant expression, but was quickly muffled by a barrage of coughs.

After hearing this, she bowed her head lightly and said, "I know that Gao Yi is a little strange. ”

When she first saw Gao Yi, Qin Ying felt that something was wrong. He pretended to be crazy in front of outsiders, why was he calm in front of her? After that, Qin Ying asked him who he was from, and got the new word "Shandong Laizhou...... The country is divided into ten provinces, Henan Province has Laizhou, what is the name of "Shandong"?

It can be seen that although Gao Yi can speak fluent official dialect, he is not a native of the Central Plains.

Then nine times out of ten, it is a foreigner who impersonates and really raises his son to participate in the scientific examination.

And even the place of origin can be mistaken, but it can be seen that the replacement is very hasty, and before I have time to memorize the ten maps of the country divided in the first year of Zhenguan, the flaws left are too obvious.

At that time, Qin Ying quietly asked him again what books he read for entertainment in addition to reading the bibliography of the Ming Sutra. Hearing that he only replied to "Art and Literature Gathering", which was written a few years ago, Qin Ying deepened his doubts about him.

Nowadays, the printing technology is not yet mature, and a set of "Art and Literature Gathering" is very valuable, and the scope of circulation is not very wide. Everyone inside the customs is proud to be able to read this book, and people outside the customs are basically in a state of rumors.

Gao Yi should have known from a certain channel that Qin Ying had a close relationship with Lord Ouyang, who edited "Art and Literature Gathering", and deliberately said the title of the book to his liking, so that Qin Ying would pay attention to him.

It can be seen that there must be an extraordinary force behind him.

However, Qin Ying still can't figure out which foreign faction's spies this is, why did he sneak into the capital to participate in the imperial examination, and he had to make a storm in Qin Ying's Xihua View that could not be easily erased.

――Could it be that the purpose of Gao Yi and his forces is not only for Qin Ying but also for the Ministry of Rites?

Qin Ying held his left hand on his cheek and thought about it, and gradually recalled things related to foreign countries.

The Ministry of Rites received the Silla envoy to the Tang Dynasty last summer, and then left Chang'an with the Silla convoy to prepare for the spread of medicine and medicinal materials in Silla.

The convoy was assassinated somewhere in the grassland of Youzhou, and the convoy stayed for a few days to recuperate from its injuries. Qin Ying found that the Youzhou Prefecture and the military government were not in harmony, so he tried to pass on the message to His Majesty, and also submitted the matter of Goguryeo's establishment of Jingguan on the Yalu River.

Li Shimin replied in a hurry, sealing her a five-grade vacant position, and asking her to bring people to Goguryeo to welcome back the bones of those former dynasty soldiers who had been made into Jingguan.

A few days later, she fulfilled her mission to welcome back to Jingguan, and the price was that at the banquet of diplomatic relations between the two countries, she had a fierce dispute with the lord of Goguryeo.

On the Oriental Peninsula outside the Central Plains, the three small states of Goguryeo, Silla, and Baekje stood side by side.

Silla had already taken the initiative to send an envoy to Tang and Li Tang to show goodwill.

Goguryeo's attitude towards Li Tang was very tough, because there was an iron-blooded monarch in that projectile land.

Qin Ying was going to Silla to preach medicine, but he couldn't see Goguryeo personally envoying on the bank of the Yalu River with Jingguan's provocation, and he damaged the face of the Goguryeo lord in front of the public.

Goguryeo originally sealed the news that the lord of the country was ruthlessly placed by Li Tanglai, but the Jingguan that was resting on the Yalu River was all removed within a day, and all the people with long eyes could know that Li Tang had ascended to the kingdom, and his majesty was still there.

Those Silla merchants who transported goods from the upper reaches of the Yalu River all said by word of mouth how amazing and brilliant the young envoys sent by Li Tang were, and how disgraced the lord of Goguryeo was in front of them.

When the lord of Silla learned of this, he expressed regret that Qin Ying could not come here to preach medicine, and also expressed his pleasure to see Qin Ying's envoy to neighboring countries.

Qin Ying remembered that in his previous life, the peninsula east of the Central Plains was very unpeaceful. Goguryeo was interested in annexing Silla, and Silla, knowing that he was invincible, came to Li Tang in order to seek refuge. These three countries are entangled openly and secretly, and Qin Ying was killed by Li Shimin's edict without seeing how it ended.

However, in this life, Qin Ying seems to have been involved in the wrestling of three countries. It's not about herself, it's just her delusion.

――If Gao Yi really came from a foreign country, could he be a Goguryeo?

Qin Ying brushed the thoughts in her head little by little, feeling that her life in this life was much more difficult than in her previous life.

The man looked at himself and caused Qin Ying's face to be so solemn and heavy, and the guilt in his heart was even stronger, regardless of whether Qin Ying had the heart to listen to it or not, what he had done, and said it all like pouring beans into a bamboo tube.

It was more difficult to make a sound after being removed from his jaw, and since the retreat, his stomach was often empty, so he didn't have much strength to use, and he almost fainted again after a while, but Qin Ying raised his head and said to himself with a slight apology: "Outside of the wandering thing just now, can you tell me again?" He didn't take a breath, and almost suffocated himself.

“…… Half a month ago, I went to Dongmingguan to study, and when the four seats dispersed and I was about to leave, a foreigner wanted me to do him a favor, and said that after the deed was completed, he would get a heavy profit. Finally, he re-said in a deliberate tone.

Qin Ying had already expected what he was going to confess, so he held his knee with his right hand and said at the right time: "What about after you promised him?" ”

Then he nodded and replied: "On the day of the incident, I reminded the people of Guangping Dao that there have been many lifts in Xihuaguan recently, and some Taoists need to be on duty at night. Guangping Taoist people drew a Taoist from each side room and went to the front yard hall to watch the night. I want to take advantage of this to create a situation where the Taoists are more chaotic tonight, and the night watchers cannot prove their innocence. ”

She sighed in her heart that this person was scheming, and said: "You climbed to the top of the pavilion after leading the night errand of the Taiyi Palace? ”

The man frowned slightly and said, "The stranger uncovered the roof tiles of the attic, threw a silk book in, and asked me to put it on the patio in the backyard." I was afraid that the East Window incident would affect me, so I said that the peeling marks of the roof tiles were caused by my own trampling. ”

"Since they are originally a raccoon dog, why don't they directly pass on the Ming Jing test questions to Gao Yi, and pull you into the gang?" Qin Ying's brain made up the scene of that night and brought up the loopholes in the logic.

I saw him think for a while and said, "They probably want to cause some negative impact on the five-rank official body of the Lord. ”

Qin Ying groaned, thinking that those foreigners promised to make the Taoist people in Guanzhong do the internal response with heavy profits, and they must have left a follow-up move. And after Gao Yi got the Ming Jing exam questions, he could have secretly hidden them, and quickly burned them after reading them. But his crazy and outrageous move attracted attention, and he put the silk book with the test questions in his baggage, which should also have a plan.

When the leaking case is made big by other people, the suspicion will be pointed directly at Qin Ying - what does this bring to her, not to mention "some" negative effects?

Her enemy Hou Junji is still unstable. When Qin Ying was proud, he created opportunities to make her frustrated, and when Qin Ying was frustrated, he seized the opportunity to fall into the well. It's even more annoying than flies.

If it weren't for the serious injury to her right hand after a confrontation between Qin Ying and Hou Junji, she would have been impeached by Hou Junji, Dali Temple, and Yushitai.

She breathed through her nostrils, but she still felt a foul breath in her chest.

Although I disdain the almost shameless tricks used by those foreigners, I have to admire that they have done a lot of homework before doing things, and can disguise the leak case as an internal fight between dogs and dogs.

Qin Ying slowly clenched her right hand, and the slight pain in her palm made her realize how bad her situation was.

-- There are foreign countries watching outside, and enemies inside coveting them.

Even if you take it step by step, it's still easy to make mistakes.

Fortunately, those who betrayed themselves reined in the precipice. Being lost in a thorny path, I know to return to myself.

Qin Ying was ruthless in the end, and when he finished coughing with his head tilted, he said softly: "When this case is over, you can follow the two Dao people in charge to manage the money and keep accounts." Although I can't bring you any glory and wealth, I can let you learn and improve. ”

The man was stunned for a moment, choked up heavily, and said, "Thank you for the grace of the Lord not to kill." ”

She brushed her sleeves and got up, without a trace of light in her eyes: "The person who wants to kill you is not me, but the person who asked you to enter the game." Xihuaguan is not safe today. Later, I will call Master Li's men to send you to the prison of the Criminal Department, which is heavily guarded to protect you from strangers, but do not accept food outside the prison. ”

The man spoke again and thanked Qin Ying for a long time.

Opening the door of the firewood room and walking out, the dense haze in Qin Ying's heart dissipated a little, and she casually instructed the officials of the Criminal Department to do things, and she went to the wing room of Li Daozong's office.

He was sitting in front of the small table looking at a pile of files, not guarding the door of the firewood room, obviously trusting her very much. When she walked closer to Xiaoji, Li Daozong smiled and said, "Has there been progress in the case?" ”

Qin Ying didn't answer in a hurry, wiped his hands with the handkerchief in his sleeve for a while, pinched the tea on the small table and ate two pieces, and said, "Master Li, you might as well guess what I know first." ”

Li Daozong's smile became a little bitter, he picked up the pen hanging on the pen mountain, dipped it in the water in the pen wash and sighed: "Since Lord Qin's words have been successful, if you have some understanding of the case, let's talk directly." I'll write it down for you for the time being. ”

She blinked when she heard this, and decided not to speculate and speculate about her own reasons, but only recounted how the man got the silk book as it was.

Before Gao Yi's true identity was confirmed, she didn't want to expose those foreigners who had eyeliner in Li Tangtang. After all, the enemy is dark and I am clear.

She believed in the character of Li Daozong, the secretary of the Criminal Department, but she couldn't trust many of his subordinates. (To be continued.) )
