Yin Tiancheng walked into the palace with a case file in his hand, and saw that Governor Lin was discussing official business with Master Zhang, so he stepped forward to greet the two of them. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Father-in-law, hurry up and enter the palace with me to meet the saint." After the greetings, Yin Tiancheng quickly turned to the topic.
"What's the urgency that you have to meet the Holy One?"
"Someone is rebellious and tries to assassinate the saint!"
"What?" Governor Lin was taken aback when he heard this, and hurriedly asked Yin Tiancheng: "Tiancheng, where did you hear this news?" ”
"It's a child's inference." After speaking, Yin Tiancheng handed over the list given to him by Nangong Yu to Governor Lin, only to see that Governor Lin asked with doubts after reading the list: "How do you know from this list that the thief is going to assassinate the emperor?" ”
Yin Tiancheng first explained the origin of the list to everyone and then asked Lu Wu: "Do you remember the riddle that Zheng Zhihao gave me the day before yesterday?" ”
"Remember, the wind is sluggish and the water is cold, and the strong man will return once he is gone." Lu Wu opened his mouth and replied.
"Can you guess what that means?"
"Not as smart as you, I can't guess. However, it seems to be a poem written by an assassin during the Warring States period before assassinating the emperor. ”
"When Jing Ke assassinated the King of Qin and parted, Prince Dan of Yan made a trip for him by the Yishui River. In the middle of the banquet, Gao gradually left the building to say goodbye, and Jing Ke got up and sang to thank him. The title of this song is "Yi Shui Han", and Zheng Zhihao's riddle comes from this song. Yin Tiancheng explained to him further.
Governor Lin asked, "I still haven't figured out what this has to do with the assassination of the Holy Master?" ”
Yin Tiancheng asked him: "Have you noticed that Zheng Zhihao seems to have said the wrong two words?" ”
"Not bad." Governor Lin replied: "The original sentence should be that the strong man is gone and will never return, is it because the Goryeo people don't know much about the history of my Central Plains?" ”
"Goryeo's predecessor is Yan Guo, even if he remembers other allusions wrongly, he will never remember this matter wrongly, I think he deliberately said these two words wrong, wanting me to know the truth of the matter." Yin Tiancheng replied confidently.
Governor Lin said: "Tiancheng, don't sell Guanzi, tell us what the mystery is?" ”
"The wind is sluggish and the water is cold, and the strong man is gone, and these two sentences are easy to understand if they are guessed as a riddle. Jing Ke, the assassin, did not return, that is, he had to say goodbye to the person who saw him off. Together, the Assassins meant that they were leaving. ”
"And Zheng Zhihao changed two words, could it be that the assassin is coming back?" After listening to Yin Tiancheng's explanation, Governor Lin suddenly realized.
"My father-in-law is right." Yin Tiancheng said: "Zheng Zhihao was originally the main candidate to arrange the assassination of the saint, but after he failed to assassinate me and Ding Ming that day, his identity has been exposed, and his master can no longer entrust this mission to him." There are only two endings waiting for him, either killing people and destroying his mouth, or leaving the country to die. So he changed two words and told me that although he was no longer an Assassin, there were other Assassins who continued to complete the mission. ”
"But ......" Hearing this, Governor Lin asked a little uneasily: "Tiancheng, can you be sure that you didn't guess Zheng Zhihao's riddle wrong?" ”
Yin Tiancheng asked him a sentence: "There are two more sentences after "Yi Shui Han", do you remember?" ”
"Explore the tiger's den and enter the Jiaogong Palace, look up to the sky and exhale into a white rainbow." Although Jing Ke failed to assassinate Qin, most of the people in the world regarded him as a hero, even a knight who didn't know a few big characters would recite this impassioned poem "Yi Shui Han", not to mention that people in the government like Lin Zhifu didn't know the reason.
Yin Tiancheng replied confidently: "Jiao, Longye, is the symbol of the emperor, entering Jiao Palace means sneaking into the palace, such an obvious answer, how can it be difficult for me." Zheng Zhihao is telling us unmistakably that they are going to assassinate the emperor. ”
"Zheng Zhihao has been exposed, so who will complete this conspiracy?" Governor Lin asked.
"I don't know yet, but I'm sure the Assassin is someone from the Goryeo Mission." Yin Tiancheng continued: "Before the mystery is revealed, in order to have full confidence to support my diagnosis, I will ask Mr. Zhang to help me investigate something. ”
Master Zhang asked, "What to investigate?" ”
Yin Tiancheng tore off a small blank piece of paper from the list, and handed it to the master book along with the piece of paper torn from the gold-inlaid sandalwood box, and said: "Mr. Trouble quickly find a few framers to identify what type of paper this is, and at the same time confirm whether these two pieces of paper are the same kind of paper." Come back as soon as you have an answer, I'll be waiting for you here. ”
"Okay." Zhang took the piece of paper and went out to do business.
In less than an hour, Yin Tiancheng came back when he saw Master Zhang, and after taking a breath, he said: "The two pieces of paper have been screened by several old framers and unanimously confirmed that they are the same type of paper, and they are made of hemp paper. ”
"Isn't it the Guangdu thin tissue paper for the imperial palace?"
"No, it's plain hemp paper." Master Zhang wondered why Yin Tian would ask such a question.
Yin Tiancheng asked again: "How long does it take for the paper to be made?" ”
"For about a month, the framer can't identify the specific time."
"Well, that's enough." Seeing that these results were exactly the same as what he thought in his heart, Yin Tiancheng finally smiled.
Yin Tiancheng took the piece of paper from Master Zhang's hand and handed it to Lu Wu, and then asked him, "Do you have an impression of this small piece of paper?" ”
"No, I don't know a few big characters, how can I pay attention to these elegant things." Lu Wu looked dazed.
"This is the piece of paper I removed from the seal of the Kowloon jewelry box."
Lu Wu asked, "What is your purpose in investigating this piece of paper?" ”
Yin Tiancheng took out another item from his arms, and the entire lobby was dazzling in an instant.
"This is the Nine Dragon Pearls." Yin Tiancheng said to them.
Yin Tiancheng and Lu Wu recognized this treasure, but the other people in the mansion saw it for the first time, so they couldn't help but gather to take a closer look.
Governor Lin looked at this rare treasure and asked Yin Tiancheng: "I heard that the Nine Dragon Pearls are the treasures of the Goryeo mission to pay tribute to the saints, but how are they here for you?" ”
Yin Tiancheng hurriedly made amends to Governor Lin, and then said: "Please forgive the child for not reporting this matter to his father-in-law in time, the reason for this will be explained to you in detail later, the most important thing at the moment is that there are no Nine Dragon Pearls in the treasure box of the Goryeo Mission, but in the hands of the child." ”
"How do you know that there are no Nine Dragon Pearls in the treasure box? There may be several Nine Dragon Pearls in the world, but you have only one in your hand. Governor Lin looked at him with a puzzled face.
"Father, maybe you're right, but the child can be sure that this one of mine came from a gold-inlaid sandalwood box." Yin Tiancheng turned his face and asked Lu Wu again: "Do you remember what the Goryeo envoy Li Yongtai said about how to keep the Nine Dragon Pearls?" ”
Li Yongxian said that the lock on the treasure box is called Jiuqu Linglong Lock, and this lock is extremely difficult to open. The only thing that could open this lock was a key, which was kept by Lee Yong-hyun himself, and then the lock was sealed with the seal of the Goryeo feudal king, and it was not opened by His Majesty himself until the face of the saint. At the same time, the treasure box and the key are kept by Li Yongxian and the absconding Zheng Zhihao, Zheng Zhihao's martial arts, everyone has also seen it, I can say responsibly that no thief in the world can steal the jewel from his hands and live safely. If it is inferred from common sense, there is basically no possibility that the Nine Dragon Pearls will be stolen by mortals. ”
After listening to Lu Wu's answer, Yin Tiancheng sneered and said, "It is true that there is no thief who can steal the Nine Dragon Pearls from the Goryeo Mission, but Brother Ding still missed the most important point. ”
"I didn't guess that possibility?" Lu Wu asked.
Yin Tiancheng said sharply: "Because they are simply guarding and stealing!" ”
"Really? Brother Tiancheng, tell me about your inference. Lu Wu has secretly protected him for many years, and he knows his character better, and now listening to Yin Tiancheng's answer so decisively, he knows that he has the answer in his heart.
"It's the piece of paper in your hand that proves my judgment." Yin Tiancheng took the piece of paper from Lu Wu's hand and showed it to everyone, and said unhurriedly: "This small piece of paper has not been made for more than a month, but according to the envoy Li Yongxian, the seal on the treasure box was put by the lord of Goryeo himself before they set off, and the mission has been in Beijing for nearly two months, plus they set off from Goryeo to the capital, I am afraid it will take a month, that is to say, the seal affixed by the king of Goryeo should be made for at least three months." At the same time, Zhang Zhushu told me that the material of the small paper is made of ordinary hemp paper, but we all know that the royal paper is Gwangdu thin cotton paper, is Goryeo so poor that he doesn't even pay attention to this etiquette? So I conclude that the seal I see now is a fake! ”
Yin Tiancheng's words convinced everyone, and Lin Zhifu also understood, he asked Yin Tiancheng: "You mean that after the Goryeo mission came to the Central Plains, they opened the box and took out the Nine Dragon Pearls, and then stole the beams and pillars and pasted fake seals. But why did they do this, and for what purpose? ”
"Didn't I just say that they want to assassinate the emperor." Yin Tiancheng replied.
"How are they going to assassinate the Holy One today?"
"They are just following Jing Ke's assassination of Qin, hiding a mechanism in the box, as long as the saint opens the treasure box, their lives are in danger."
