Chapter 357: Coming to the door again
The first snow of the depths of winter is finally coming.
When you get up early in the morning and open the door, you can see the white expanse outside the house, the white is pure and clear, and the white makes people have no distractions.
After putting on their thick clothes in the house and making sure that there was no skin exposed except for their faces, the people also pushed open the door to meet the different Chang'an City.
This morning's Chang'an City looks like it has a different kind of beauty under the reflection of the snowlight, sometimes hazy, sometimes pure, there is no crowded scene in the past, and there is no noisy human voice, as if it is a paradise, quiet makes people feel a little strange.
Picking out the shovel from the house, they also began to clean up the winter snow that had accumulated in front of their house, and gradually, the neighbors began to get busy
"What happened yesterday?"
After a long day of work, the people gathered in twos and threes, asking each other what happened last night.
But for the prisoner in Dali Temple last night to escape from prison, the court also issued a dead gag order, did not let a little news circulate, today's people, they just know the corner of Dali Temple last night and its liveliness, but what happened, they also don't know.
"I don't know, it's quite lively anyway."
There was no specific answer, and after a casual discussion for a while, they got back to work.
Although the imperial court has done a good job of secrecy among the people, for the well-informed magnates and families, the incident of Dali Temple last night really appeared in front of their eyes.
The prisoner escaped from prison, this matter is by no means ordinary, not to mention that last night was the annual lantern festival, but such a thing happened in a blink of an eye, people do not suspect that this is all fake, but the news they have now learned is only that, why this happened, I am afraid that only Dali Temple Siqing, and His Majesty will know today.
Taiji Palace Manna Hall
Shangguan Hai had a complicated expression on his face at this moment, standing in front of Tang Jingzong and not daring to say a word,
The place he managed actually had such a large-scale escape from prison in history, and this incident also made Shangguan Hai lose face, and he would not be able to raise his head in front of his colleagues in the future.
He scolded the group of jailers under him in his heart, but his face couldn't show a trace in front of Tang Jingzong, and he didn't have to suffer in his heart, and he was also very uncomfortable staying in the Manna Hall at the moment.
After a while, the scolding came as scheduled, and for Tang Jingzong's anger, Shangguan Hai did not respond at all, not only did he not respond, but when Tang Jingzong opened his mouth to reprimand himself, Shangguan Hai actually showed a relieved expression
It's as if Tang Jingzong didn't scold himself, and Shangguan Hai felt uncomfortable, a very strange idea, which made people feel puzzled
"If you can't give me a reasonable explanation, you can go back to your hometown!"
With Tang Jingzong's anger, Shangguan Hai returned to Dali Temple.
"What the hell was going on last night?"
The general situation last night, the officials of Dali Temple have investigated clearly, although the identity of Bailong and his party has not been found out now, but when Shangguan Hai learned that they were sent in by King Jin, this matter became a bit tortuous.
"My lord, after the investigation by my subordinates, it seems that last night's incident was caused by a teenager."
"Teenager? Who is he? After Shangguan Hai heard this, he frowned and asked
The largest prison escape in history, because of a child? caused such turmoil, could it be that he was the reincarnation of the Heavenly Evil Lone Star?
"We still know the identity of the young man, but judging by his face, he has Turkic blood in his body!"
As soon as the word Turkic came out, Shangguan Hai swept away the calm just now, and suddenly there was a lot of sharpness on his body! In an instant, the officials around Shangguan Hai, they all felt a solemn atmosphere, and now they were surrounding them.
"Turkic? Is it really for sure? Shangguan Hai asked quickly
"Judging from his face, the identity of the young man is indeed suspicious, but if you want to know his true identity, I'm afraid you have to bother the adults to go to the Jin Palace?"
"Listening to what you say, do you think His Royal Highness the King of Jin knows his identity?"
"This subordinate can't guarantee it, but I heard from the jailer that His Royal Highness the King of Jin once took the people in his house to interrogate the young man, and the time is not short, judging from the current situation, His Royal Highness the King of Jin should know more than us."
After Shangguan Hai heard this, he also nodded silently, but then, when he thought that someone dared to let people interrogate prisoners without his own orders, his face suddenly became a little unpleasant.
And just now, after the official who was answering for Shangguan Hai saw his sudden change of face, he was also a little embarrassed at this moment
"Prepare a carriage for the official, and then settle accounts with you after the official comes back from the Jin Palace!"
"Yes...... My lord. ”
Immediately Shangguan Hai got into a carriage and rushed to the Jin King's Mansion, and a moment later, Shangguan Hai came to the Jin King's Mansion, and after explaining his identity to the people in the Jin King's Mansion, he also saw the Jin King
"Lord Shangguan"
"Your Highness"
The two saluted each other, and then came to a quiet room, and after a few more polite words, Shangguan Hai talked about what happened last night
"Your Highness, you sent that group of people and that young man to Dali Temple last night?"
"Yes, it's Xiao Wang."
Then King Jin paused, and then he also succinctly talked about what happened to Shangguan Hai last night.
At that time, Xiao Wang was about to leave and return to the mansion to rest, but he happened to see someone arguing in the market, so Xiao Wang went over to find out.
But unexpectedly, Xiao Wang actually found a Turkic teenager in the crowd. ”
Speaking of this, King Jin also smiled, I don't know if he was laughing at his luck or laughing at his bad luck.
"The Turks and the Tang Dynasty have had a long-standing grudge, originally the last time the Turkic Khan came, Xiao Wang originally thought that they were really friendly with my Tang Dynasty, but he never thought that they would actually make peace with ......"
"Your Highness, no one expected this"
King Jin said that it was the rebellion of the King of Thailand, and as the elder brother of the King of Thailand, he thought of the sibling who was thousands of miles away at this moment, and his mood was also a little low at this moment.
Looking at Shangguan Hai, who also looked sad, King Jin smiled bitterly, and then continued to talk about Shangguan Hai's question.
"Since the Turks dare to murder their father, how can Xiao Wang make that Turkic boy feel better?
And at that time, Xiao Wang found that there were many people around the young man to protect him, and Xiao Wang was worried that he had any bad intentions, so he took it upon himself to detain them to Dali Temple
Without informing the adults, Xiao Wang made his own opinion, and Xiao Wang will accompany you here. ”
King Jin said sincerely, and after Shangguan Hai heard about it, he also responded
"Your Highness, you did the right thing, so why do you need to make amends...... It's just that the lower official wants to know something, I wonder if Your Highness can answer for the lower official? ”
"Lord Shangguan, please speak"
"Does Your Highness know the true identity of that young man?"
looked at King Jin directly, Shangguan Hai also patiently waited for his answer, but when King Jin heard Shangguan Hai's question, he was slightly stunned for a moment, and he also said helplessly
"Lord Shangguan really doesn't hide it, last night Xiao Wang sent someone from the palace to interrogate the Turkic boy, but it has just begun, and last night's incident happened...... Now Xiao Wang only knows what he just said. ”
King Jin said that at this time, he seemed to be a little annoyed, annoyed with his subordinates, why didn't he ask for more news last night.
Although the boy is still in Dali Temple, under layers of surveillance, but when he woke up last night and saw a group of corpses, he seemed to be crazy, he didn't know what he was muttering, today's teenager is not an exaggeration to describe himself as a madman, and if you want to get news from a madman, then you must first turn yourself into a madman.
Last night, it was the best time to interrogate the young man, but even King Jin said that he had limited information, could it be that this matter would not end?
After Shangguan Hai heard this, he also sighed helplessly.
"Your Highness, if you remember anything later, you must inform me, because Your Majesty has already given a death order to the lower official, if you can't find out ......"
Shangguan Hai said that at this time, his face showed a dejected color, and after the King of Jin on the opposite side paused slightly, he also assured Shangguan Hai seriously
"Lord Shangguan, please rest assured, as long as there is news, Xiao Wang will notify you as soon as possible."
"His Highness Youlao"
Then the two exchanged a few words of greeting, Shangguan Hai left here with a heavy heart, although he got a lot of news this time, but it had no effect on the essence.
The identity of the young man is what he or Tang Jingzong cares about the most, and if he can't find out a little, then Shangguan Hai can be said to have no achievements.
As soon as he remembered the face he saw in the Ganlu Palace, Shangguan Hai was also afraid for a while after leaving, and silently asked the coachman to start driving the carriage, and Shangguan Hai was also thinking about how to explain the matter to Tang Jingzong
And in the palace of King Jin, when Shangguan Hai left, after King Jin slowly finished tasting the cup of tea in front of him, he also rushed to his own courtyard.
The courtyard where you can only enter by yourself and others can't enter at will, there are two people here today, one is his confidant and staff, and the other is Fang Tang, who is wrapped in thick clothes and has a very pale face.
Returning to the courtyard and finding the room where the two of them were, King Jin also said to Fang Tang on top of the original position just now
"According to your request, I didn't say to Shangguan Hai about the identity of the young man, this king has already done what you asked, so shouldn't you take out the things?"
King Jin opened his mouth a little hurriedly, which made Fang Tang slowly take out the account book that King Jin had always wanted from his arms.
Slowly took out the account book, and then put it on the table, Fang Tang opened his mouth and said to him at this time
"After the ledger is given to you, when will Li Xian come out of Dali Temple?"
"Li Xian's matter involves the secrets of the Heavenly Family, is it so easy to deal with? But rest assured, since this king dares to make this promise to you, then of course he is capable of doing it. ”
Looking at Fang Tang deeply, King Jin said in a posture that he did not allow others to refuse, but after Fang Tang heard this, he did not feel any joy in his heart.
King Jin promised not to promise, this is not important to King Jin who now knows the true life of the young man, just by virtue of King Jin knowing that Li Xian is not a person from the Heavenly Family, Fang Tang must give him the account book.
And the promise of King Jin at this moment, this is also just a means for him to get the account book from Fang Tang as soon as possible, as for whether he will make a move in the future, then it really depends on his mood.
"Ahem"
Fang Tang's body was still extremely weak at the moment, and as soon as he woke up today and learned about the Dali Temple, he immediately came here, which was still a big burden for Fang Tang, who was still very weak
It may be because Fang Tang came to suffer from the wind and cold, so the coughing sound is constantly sounding at this moment, and for this coughing sound, King Jin did not express any dissatisfaction with him, and now he is just patiently waiting for Fang Tang to hand over the account book to himself
After patting his chest and breathing became smoother, Fang Tang said as he handed the ledger to King Jin
"I hope you don't forget your promise!"
This wandering thing, no matter who owned it, eventually returned to its original owner
Looking at the familiar ledger in front of him, King Jin's breathing was also very short, his face was flushed, and he didn't say a word at this time, but the excited and hot look in his eyes, which could already represent everything.
"Degree!"
Without opening the ledger, King Jin called out the name of the degree at this time, and after nodding slightly to this degree, he also picked up the ledger and went to another place in the room.
A cabinet was opened, and after Fang Tang saw that he had taken out pages of paper full of handwriting from it, his heart was also nervous
In the past, since Yang Xian, the head of the household, dared to secretly record every account of the King of Jin's embezzlement of taxes and silver, how could he have no backhand for the King of Jin on the other side?
In this regard, Fang Tang was just guessing at the beginning, but only now did he dare to confirm that this matter was true.
At this time, the degree began to compare page by page, and after Fang Tang read what the degree had done, he also slowly tasted the tea in the cup without saying a word
Everything that has ended at this moment Fang Tang didn't leave here, it's not that he didn't want to leave, it's just that Fang Tang understood that if he didn't open his mouth to confirm that everything was okay, even if he left, then King Jin would still bring him back
In this case, Fang Tang might as well stay here openly, and at the same time, he can also give King Jin the illusion that everything is fine
However, the illusion created by Fang Tang immediately disappeared between heaven and earth as soon as he said a word after the end of the comparison
"Your Highness... One page short of the ledger"
After the comparison ended, he said to King Jin, and after King Jin heard this, his face that had been smiling also showed a little bit of ruthlessness at this moment... (To be continued.) )
