Pei Xingli listened for a long time, and he didn't have a chance to interject, but at this moment, he looked at this vacancy, but he retorted to Xilingyue: "The county lord may not say this. If the orphans of the Wu family did not reveal their identities, Li Qi, Liu Pi and Yang Wenhuai would not easily take refuge in him...... The argument of exposing his hiding place is also untenable, my Datang has a vast territory, he doesn't have to hide in one place, and he is naturally not afraid that this poem will expose his hiding place. ”

"General Pei's words are reasonable." Li Chengxuan also expressed his opinion at this time, "The orphans of the Wu family want to find this cane, it must be for this article and this song."

Poetry, but by no means to hide identity and location. Yang Wenhuai said that the secret in this cane is enough to change the dynasty. The younger brother thinks that there are only two possibilities: first, the orphan of the Wu family knows the secret in the cane, and is worried that it will be discovered by the imperial court, and wants to find the evidence of destruction first; Second, he didn't know what the secret was, so he was in a hurry to find it. ”

It can be seen that the top priority is to crack this poem first. The saint has an advantage, after all, this staff is now in your hands. Pei Xingli added again.

After a few nights of suffering, this was the only news that made Li Chun feel gratified. Yes, at least I have already obtained the "Tongtian Cane" first, this is the advantage! But after thinking for a moment, he found that this advantage was very distressing: "The tricky thing about this matter is that Shun can't let the Chinese courtiers disassemble this poem, otherwise the content will be leaked, and this advantage will be gone." ”

"yes." Guo Zhongting also sighed, "It seems that we can only rely on ourselves." Holy Lord, you know that the minister is not very literate, and his ability to disassemble poetry is limited. ”

Li Chun looked at Pei Xingli again, and the latter also replied frankly: "Don't hide it from the saint, Weichen is a military general, and he doesn't know how to write and ink." ”

Xiling Yue also waved her hand: "Yue'er grew up in the merchant's house, it's okay to settle accounts and do business, and detectives are also interested, just ...... Worse. ”

Li Chun sighed again after hearing this. He didn't even ask Li Chengxuan, the other party was his own brother, and he was taught by the same group of teachers, and he knew best what Li Chengxuan's ability was to write poetry and songs. What's more, the Han culture is broad and profound, and there are countless ways to disassemble a poem.

After thinking about it, Li Chunsi finally gave an order to a few people: "Yue'er, Zhong Ting, as you said before, go find the items that Liu Pi and Li Qi were copied, and strive to find more clues." ”

"Yue'er (minister) takes the order." Xi Lingyue and Guo Zhongting quickly replied.

Li Chun looked at Pei Xingli again: "Zhengjun, when you return home today, tell your father the inside story, I will summon him and Bai Juyi into the palace tomorrow to disassemble this poem, I'm afraid it will take a few days for him to work." ”

"Wechen takes orders." Pei Xingli also replied.

"As for the sixteenth brother," Li Chun deliberately paused for a moment and asked Li Chengxuan, "You told me last time you entered the palace that the murderer of Li Qi already has an eyebrow, how is the investigation?" ”

Li Chengxuan hesitated for an unprecedented moment, and even glanced at Pei Xingli before replying: "Brother Chen is still looking for evidence. ”

Li Chun was obviously disappointed, and said irritably: "Since you have any suspicions, just arrest people back and torture them!" ”

"Brother Chen doesn't want to startle the snake for the time being." Li Chengxuan explained, "Once found by the orphans of the Wu family, the younger brother is afraid that he will kill people and destroy the evidence." ”

Li Chun was very helpless and powerless after hearing this, so he could only pin his hopes on Li Chengxuan and instructed: "This person is very critical, I haven't even seen Yang Wenhuai, you must find out for me." Let's put everything else aside first, and you will leave the palace today to continue the investigation. ”

"Brother obeys."

The next day, several people began to split up.

It is the twenty-fourth day of the lunar month, and the Daming Palace is full of joy, and the eaves of the palace corridors and the beams and pillars are full of red palace lights; The flowers and trees beside the pond have also been trimmed with a new look, and colorful silk threads are tied everywhere on the branches.

The palace people were all laughing and laughing, discussing the New Year's rewards given by the masters, and they didn't realize that the crisis had arrived. Xilingyue suddenly began to understand Li Chun, as the Son of Heaven, with his family and country in mind, not only could he not express the difficult things in his heart to the person next to him, but he also had to face this innocent smiling face, which could not be said to be depressed.

It's no wonder that she, the emperor's uncle, is indifferent to love matters, and now she is a favorite. Presumably, in addition to Du Qiuniang's similarity with Ji Meiren's temperament and talent, she also has empathy, so as to comfort the emperor's depression!

Xilingyue and Guo Zhongting came to the Si Zhen Division of the Shanggong Bureau in this joyful atmosphere, and also took Acui and Adan with them. When the four of them arrived, the new Zhao Shanggong, that is, the original Zhao Si system, was already waiting here, and his attitude was even more respectful and responsive, and the treasury of Si Zhen was also open without reservation. Xilingyue asked several female officials of Si Zhensi to help find out all the belongings in the names of Liu Pi and Li Qi confiscated by the imperial court, especially calligraphy and paintings.

Several people worked hard all morning before they found all the calligraphy and paintings. When Xi Lingyue and Guo Zhongting saw the number, they didn't dare to take it lightly, and hurriedly calmed down to find clues. Atsui and Adan were inconvenient to interfere, and they were called by Guo Zhongting, one pinched his shoulders and beat his legs for him, and the other ran errands for him. Even the lunch was taken by Ah Cui from the Shangshi Bureau, and it was almost fed to his mouth.

So busy until sunset, Xi Lingyue and Guo Zhongting had read most of the calligraphy and paintings, but they never found any useful clues. Just as the two of them were frowning, a gentle shout suddenly sounded outside the door of the warehouse: "County lord, county lord." The two put down the calligraphy and painting in their hands, got up and walked through the rows of cabinets, and saw that the person who came was Zheng Wanniang. She was dressed as a palace maid and held a tray in her hand, smiling and groaning outside the door.

Xilingyue hurriedly greeted her: "Wanniang, why are you here?" ”

Zheng Wanniang motioned for her to look at the tray and replied, "It was the concubine who asked the maid to come." She said that you found out about Ji Meiren and returned her innocence, she wanted you to go to the Hanxiang Hall to sit, but you were reused by the saints, and you lacked skills. Today, she heard that you came to Shanggong Bureau, so she personally cooked and made some nourishing things, because the maid and you are old acquaintances, so she asked the maid to run errands and send it. ”

Zheng Wanniang was articulate, and her words were very clear. As her words came together, there was also the fragrance of the soup cup on the tray in her hand, and I don't know what it was nourishing, in short, the aroma was overflowing, and the lid couldn't hide it.

Before Xiling Yue could thank him and reply, Guo Zhongting had already said sourly: "Okay, Aunt Guifei is only thinking about Yue'er now, but she has forgotten me." Hmph, I like the new and hate the old! ”

Several of the women in the room laughed when they heard this. Zheng Wanniang seemed to have expected him to say this, and immediately blocked him back: "County Prince, the concubine said, even if you are snubbed, you can't blame her, otherwise she won't speak for you in your marriage." ”
