Chapter 38: Spice Doubts (II)
Not long after, a sigh from Sun Simiao came from the hall, "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable~"
"Don't mourn the old miracle doctor. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" Li Ke saw that Sun Simiao had not come out for a long time, and he also turned around and entered the lobby, and saw that Sun Laodao was checking the wound of the blue-clothed old man.
This Sun Lao Dao is also a wise person who has experienced three dynasties, and his IQ is also extremely high, not like the elders of the three dynasties that people often say, this is a real old man who has experienced the turmoil of three dynasties.
In this situation, Sun Simiao, a well-informed human spirit, did not question whether the old Taoist priest who fell to the ground was killed by Li Ke, obviously he also knew the cause of the death of the blue-clothed old Taoist, and when he saw Li Ke coming in, Sun Simiao was just silent and contemplative.
"Doctor Sun has seen something." Li Ke walked to Sun Simiao's side, thinking that Sun Simiao was sad because of the death of his old friend.
It wasn't until he approached this old way that Li Ke found that Sun Simiao's expression was a little complicated, was it sadness? Is it fear? Even Li Ke saw a trace of reluctance in Sun Simiao's eyes when he looked at him, but this expression disappeared in a flash. Even Li Ke is a little confused now, what is this old way doing? What does it mean for a dead old friend to make such an expression?
"Your Highness should not ask about this matter." After Sun Simiao's inspection, he seemed to have changed into a different person, and stood up like an irrelevant stranger and warned Li Ke indifferently, as if the old man with a modest demeanor outside the house just now was not him.
"Okay, Doctor Sun doesn't want to say it, and Ke won't be reluctant, but Ke wants to ask Doctor Sun to talk about it in Ziyun Tower tomorrow, and ask Doctor Sun not to refuse." Li Ke saw that Sun Simiao's attitude suddenly became cold, but he also said with anger. It's not that Li Ke is young and frivolous, it's just that Li Ke was put in a position by Sun Laodao's sudden 180-degree turn, and he didn't turn the corner.
As soon as the words came out, Li Ke suddenly understood that this matter was not simple, Sun Laodao should be to put aside the relationship with him, and if he talked to him like this, Sun Laodao would definitely release his pigeons tomorrow.
But Li Ke is not without a way to remedy it, if he wants Sun Simiao to come as promised, he only needs to reveal a little bit of the "clues" he knows.
Sun Simiao couldn't help but be angry when he saw Li Ke because of his few faint admonitions, but Li Ke was still a young man and didn't understand his good intentions. I wanted to make up my mind in my heart, and I would immediately return to Nanshan to live in seclusion, but I wouldn't go to Ziyun Tower to see this "small" King Wu again, but Li Ke's next move really surprised Sun Simiao.
I saw Li Ke put an incense stick that had not burned out into his sleeve on the incense burner in front of Xu Fu's statue, and glanced at Sun Simiao with a little meaning.
Sun Simiao saw Li Ke act like this, as if he had been held seven inches, and the two of them were squinted, but the white beard trembled in an instant, and he wanted to say something, but he saw that Li Ke had already walked out of the hall one step earlier.
As soon as Li Ke came out of the hall, he saw that Yuan Kui was looking down the mountain through the low courtyard wall, thinking that the Xuanwu Wei found by the eunuch should also be about to arrive, after all, it is only a mile of mountain road, if it is not here now, it can only be said that the army of the Tang Dynasty is unbearable.
"Your Highness, they are here." When Yuan Kui saw Li Ke come out, his expression was a little nervous, obviously afraid of the so-called Xu Fu Law Field. Seeing that Li Ke was fine, he was relieved.
Li Ke whispered a few words to Yuan Kui: "Don't mention Xu Fu later, just say that after coming in, I saw a Taoist priest dead." Don't make extraneous branches. ”
After all, Yuan Kui is also a servant who grew up in the royal environment, and he also knows that Li Ke doesn't want to cause trouble, so he nodded.
"Yes, Aqua knows."
In the blink of an eye, a black-armored general was leading a team of guards to surround Yundantang on the third floor and the outer three floors, and Gonggong De was escorted up together. Li Ke looked at this posture, a little panicked, and a little relaxed, surprised by the high grade of the person who came, and the matter here was really not simple; But when he saw that the person who came was an old acquaintance, he immediately calmed down again.
"General Li, we're meeting again." Li Ke didn't know why, seeing that it was Li Junxian who brought his troops over, his mood relaxed inexplicably, probably because Li Junxian showed mercy to his subordinates in the palace that day.
"His Royal Highness King Wu, I think you also know, the matter involves the Da Nei Shangdan Bureau, so I have to ask you a few words." The first thing General Heijia said after coming up to give a salute was not to ask why Li Ke was here, obviously he had already learned the general situation from Eunuch De.
"Are you going to bring it back to the sect for questioning?" Li Ke knew the rules and said lightly.
Li Junxian didn't answer immediately, just listened to the whispered report of his subordinates, Li Ke vaguely heard something from Sun, but seeing that Sun Simiao didn't come out, obviously there were some things that Li Ke didn't have the right to know.
"That's not necessary, just ask questions here, and leave after asking Your Highness." Li Junxian listened to the whispers of his subordinates and said thoughtfully.
"When will Your Highness arrive at Yundan Hall today?" Li Junxian asked loudly,
"It's almost midday, it's nearly noon. Aque, when did we arrive at Hibiscus Garden? Li Ke replied.
"Back to Your Highness, we are at the Furong Garden at three o'clock."
"Well, did His Highness immediately send Gonggong De down the mountain to report the news after he found out that the Daoist of Yundantang died." Li Junxian continued to ask, only to see that as soon as these words came out, the father-in-law on the side looked at this and nodded wildly.
"Yes, after Father-in-law De found the bloodstains, the three of us entered the lobby and saw that the people in the hall were dead, so we sent Father-in-law De down the mountain to report the news." Li Ke's face was expressionless.
"Then why did His Highness come here, and how did he know that this place is the Shangdan Judan Temple, which is also affiliated with Ouchi?" Li Junxian continued like the Jincha Shu Huang of later generations.
"I wanted to go to the place where the water was taken from the Furong Imperial Garden to check the quality of the water source, and I passed through here led by my father-in-law. As for knowing that this is the Dan Courtyard set up by the Shang Dan Bureau in Furong Garden, it is also the father-in-law who listened to what the father-in-law above said. Li Ke saw that Li Junxian was asking about the scene, so he had to continue to answer truthfully.
Li Junxian pondered for a moment, and when Gonggong De came out of the palace, he knew that it was not uncommon to say a few words about the Shang Dan Bureau, so he did not continue to ask, and waved his hand to send a group of people to escort Li Ke away.
As for the father-in-law of De, he was brought back for trial with a miserable face, after all, the Shangdan Bureau is His Majesty's personal command, and the secret affairs here can be known and revealed by a little eunuch at will. And today's events seem to be everywhere with the elements of the guidance of the father-in-law, the father-in-law of the country is looking for a trail to go up the mountain, the father-in-law of the country touched the bloodstains, the father-in-law said that this is the Shangdan Bureau, too many coincidences make this matter extraordinary. It's just that Li Ke still hasn't been able to understand why Gonggong De wants to bring him to this temple, and Li Ke has received too little information at present.
Li Ke continued to follow the trail, led by the Xuanwu Guard, up the mountain to find a mountain stream for water.
Along the way, knowing Sun Simiao, Li Junxian must have some secrets that cannot be said to hide from him, and Li Ke has some worries but also falls into contemplation from time to time.
Li Ke connected the information he obtained, but he made a new discovery. If Li Ke thinks about it, this secret should be related to the Furong Garden, but the cause and effect of today's events is not something that Li Ke can know, according to Li Ke's memory in the previous life, he has not heard much about the royal family-related emergencies in the Furong Imperial Garden, is it not that Li Ke and his little son suddenly entered the palace and caused some undercurrents to be fanned by their butterfly wings, but they still don't know it?
Li Ke's eyes suddenly lit up, his heart moved, and he tightly held the half-truncated incense in his sleeve. Now Li Ke has got too little information, and a lot of things are hidden under a mess, but Li Ke vaguely feels that this half-truncated incense must be the key thread that can untie the mess!
