Beishi is the largest business district in Luoyang, the eastern capital, bustling, lively, different from all kinds of Hu merchants in the Western Regions in Chang'an, the merchants here are relatively single, mainly Sogdian merchants, the outer house that walks the water, in the Beishi, where every inch of land is valuable, is considered large, and the Sogdians who live around are high-nosed, deep-eyed and white-skinned.

Di Renjie dignified Dali Temple, when the court captain, but is a practical faction, do not pay attention to pomp, walk as a car, personally come to investigate the scene, a large number of officials in Dali Temple are accompanied by a quick catch, the autumn official Yamen came to inspect the school waiter, the imperial history of the Tai to Junchen is dominant, or sent a few to supervise the scene of the imperial history, but the upper and lower officials of the Luoyang Mansion are not the sons of people, stunned that there is no official body to come forward, sent a catcher, led the full of Yamen to catch the fast government with the accompaniment, full of streets and alleys, probably want to replace quality with quantity.

When he arrived at the ground, Di Renjie waved his hand, scattered the people's hands, and asked them to look for abnormal clues, and he also squatted on the ground to check a few ruins, a few tiles, which were burned to black, and checked the layout of the corpses, only to see that the portal was not destroyed, and many corpses died on the couch, neatly arranged.

"When did you walk on the water?" The on-site autopsy, the bloody smell was disgusting, Di Renjie did not avoid it at all, and the dozen or so Sogdian merchants brought by the catchers were left out in the cold for a long time, and he was very uneasy, he did not turn around, turned his back to them, and interrogated.

An elderly Sogdian merchant reached out and stroked his curly hair that hung down to his cheeks, "It was about the time of the ugly time when I got up at night to go to the toilet, and I went to my house to look at the silver vault, and I saw that there was a fire in this place."

"How's the fire?"

"When the fire flashed, it immediately soared into the sky, and the flames were higher than the beams of the house"

"Have you ever heard a movement?" Di Renjie turned around and asked the others.

Unexpectedly, they looked at the old man in Sogdia in unison, and did not speak easily, and the old man still replied, "I heard a few screams, and the sound of weapons fighting."

"Did the screaming happen before the fire, or after the fire, and was the fight inside or outside the house?" Di Renjie asked sharply.

"The little old man is dazzled, and he has never seen it in earnest," the Sogdian old man shook his head, and the other Sogdian merchants followed suit to express their confusion.

Di Renjie frowned, approached them, and said sharply, "There are both fires and screams, but the government has not received a report, what are you doing?" ”

The old Sogdian replied very calmly, "The great officials forgive their sins, and we and other foreigners are timid and dare not say or do much.

Di Renjie's expression was complicated, and he glanced at them, "You are protected by the imperial court, the people are tolerant, and you should take responsibility and repay in the Tang Dynasty."

A group of Sogdian merchants expressed their willingness to donate money and silk to assist the government in comforting the families of the victims, and soon scraped together 50,000 yuan of money and 400 horses of silk.

Di Renjie's eyes swelled with anger, and it quickly dissipated, turning outsiders into outsiders, dealing with them, without damaging the prestige and dignity of the Celestial Empire, waving his hand and making them retreat.

Di Renjie looked around on this ruin for more than half an hour, and talked back and forth, verifying that the deceased was indeed young and strong, and there was unknown poison on the bones.

"Da Da Da" rode a fast horse and galloped, and immediately the knight rolled the saddle and dismounted, rushed over, bowed down, and played, "Di Tingwei, there are traitors in the temple who have rebelled and murdered two people who surrendered themselves, the injured are seriously injured, and they are dying, and the assassin is injured and fled, and his subordinates have arranged for the whole city to be roped."

Di Renjie tugged at the corners of his mouth, and remained silent, "Let's go, go to Yishui with this official to have a look."

Yishui is in the south of Luoyang City, the road is very far away, Di Renjie got into the carriage, closed his eyes in the slight bump and thought, the two injured he had already replaced, even if he died, it was just the hands of fake others, the execution of two court death row prisoners, insignificant, he didn't even have much interest in the origin of the assassin, he took over the case, settled the injured in Dali Temple, heavily guarded, knowing that it was impossible to succeed, but there were still people who came to kill them, which is a suspicion in itself.

Assassins don't have to come to kill.

When I arrived at Yishui, the painting boat docked on the shore, in the past, the lights were bright and green, the singing and dancing were level, in just a few days, it was already dilapidated, spider webs and flying insects, everywhere, in several boxes on the ship, a mess, leftovers everywhere, in the jasper wine glass, there were still a little drops of residual wine, and some mosquitoes were crawling.

Di Renjie walked around the inside and outside, and found no special traces, his nose twitched, the aroma inside was not quite right, he only smelled a little, and his body was a little hot, "Left and right, is there anyone who is good at distinguishing the aroma?" ”

"Back to Tingwei, there is a master with a special sense of smell in the temple, but he has never come to the Eastern Capital with his car, so his subordinates will arrange for someone to go to Chang'an to summon him" Sizheng next to him has already figured out the path of the new boss, and he has also followed the vigorous and resolute action.

Di Renjie nodded, "That's all for today, everyone has worked hard, let's disperse."

The servants listened to the order and left in droves, Di Renjie shook his body and stepped into the car, joking leisurely, "Go back to the temple to see, and see who wants to kill the mouth, and where do you want to take me and others"

"Yes," the subordinate officials of Dali Temple suddenly received the order.

Di Renjie nodded, lowered the curtain, opened it suddenly, and yelled, "Come on, look at the vegetable farmer"

But it was a step too late, the peasant who was dressed in tattered gray clothes, barefoot, and carrying vegetables and vegetables, ran wildly, bypassed the pursuit and interception of the errand soldiers, jumped on the side of the ferry, and pounced on the painting boat, the fire sickle in his hand moved, and a little spark jumped on him, and the whole body suddenly ignited a raging fire, and it didn't take much effort, in the orange flames, only a dark skeleton remained, and the painting boat also burst into flames, turning into a huge fire ball, floating on the sparkling water, and the picture was weird to the extreme.

Di Renjie's face was pale, his thick eyebrows raised, and his whole body trembled angrily, "Good thief, good thief"

Shanglinfang, there is an inconspicuous house, there are two big locust trees in front of the house, and three people must hold hands to hug each other.

The black-gauze woman who haunted Princess Yiyang's mansion temporarily lived here, holding a piece of paper in her hand and looking at it repeatedly, since this piece of paper came to her hand last night, she never left her hand, her eyes were not instantaneous, her mouth was cold, and she asked, "Is Fleur okay?" ”

"Oh no, frightened" Yunu felt a little guilty, the arrangement was not proper, and did not stop Fleur's trip, causing seven women to commit suicide by throwing themselves into the river under her nose.

The woman in the black veil sighed and said no more.

After a while, a stranger walked outside the door, the figure was very familiar, but the appearance was rusty, he was a Jedi after disguise, "Lady, everything is going well, the vegetable farmer is broken, and the three killers are also soon"

The woman in the black gauze was silent, stretched out her white jade-like fingers, and gently stroked it inch by inch on the piece of paper, as if she was caressing a rare treasure, and the handwriting on it was like that.

"I love Songshan alone, there is a frightening dance in the hall, taste the gulls and herons and sit and forget, there are plum trees under the court, every time you meet the white dew and fall, when you exceed the sky, the frost falls"

The woman in the black gauze muttered to herself, as if no one was around, "Little thief, these many lives, one by one, are paved to Lijingmen, you have to come back well"

Tick-tock, tick-tock, tears fell onto the paper, blurring and deforming the ink of the three words of the Amazing Dance.

I don't know what came to mind, Joan's nose wrinkled slightly, "Phew"
