Chapter 281: The Emperor's Meaning
Song Jun lives on the fourth floor, he is a person who looks thin, has a pair of beads in his eyes, and has a mustache, much like the master he saw in film and television dramas.
When Su Wuming, Di Bu and the others found him, he was drinking in the house, looking at his appearance, he seemed to be very excited and happy, after all, the person he had always hated was finally dead.
Because the news he heard before came from Sun Jiang, although he had prejudices against this Song Jun, after not seeing and understanding it with his own eyes, Su Wuming still wouldn't think that Song Jun was a person who said bad things behind his back.
Song Jun was very surprised by Su Wuming and Di Bu's sudden visit, so he was a little overwhelmed for a while, stood at the door of the house, and stammered and asked, "You guys...... Who are you, and is there something wrong? ”
Su Wuming frowned slightly, and said, "You are Song Jun?" ”
Song Jun nodded again and again, and at this time, he had already recognized Su Wuming, and after recognizing Su Wuming, he naturally knew the purpose of Su Wuming's trip, and when he understood, his heart suddenly sank, but he didn't dare to make any noise, just quietly turned sideways and said, "Come into the house and say." ”
After entering the house, Su Wuming explained his intentions, and after Song Jun listened, a cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he said for a long time: "That's right, I did say that Master Sun was misbehaving, but I didn't say nonsense, this Master Sun is indeed misbehaving, relying on his superb chess skills, insulting people everywhere, and ......" Speaking of this, he seemed to notice that Su Wuming was followed by a Sun Jiang, but he just hesitated, and then said: "And, Once I saw this Sun Shi deceive a woman from a good family to a place with his high identity, and the woman was a nymphomaniac, it was ...... I can't help but want to slap him a few times. ”
Hearing Song Jun say this, Su Wuming suddenly understood that it is understandable for a talented person like Sun Shi to be sought after by women, and those nymphomaniac women are indeed angry when people see them.
And a person like Sun Shi actually deceived a woman from a good family, but it was a little surprising, although the woman from a good family was willing, but if he couldn't give the woman a future, it would inevitably be suspected of deceiving feelings.
It's just that I don't know what happened to the woman from the good family now.
Su Wuming turned his head to look at Sun Jiang and asked, "Do you know about this?" ”
Sun Jiang flickered a little between his words, and shook his head after a long time: "I don't know very well about these things of the young master, but I believe in the character of the young master of my family, and he will definitely not be able to do this kind of thing." ”
Sun Jiang's words have always been just one-sided, maybe some of what he said is true, but in terms of protecting Sun Shi, he has done the best, so it is difficult for people to believe those words about Sun Shi.
At this time, Di Bu looked at Song Jun and asked, "Where did Master Sun pull that woman to at that time, and besides, do you know who that woman is?" ”
Song Jun shrugged: "I only know what that place is, but as for who that woman is, I don't know, although I hate that Sun Shi, but I am not shameless enough to peek at others doing that kind of thing." ”
Song Jun is shameless or not shameless, Su Wuming and Di Bu don't know, but they can guess that if Sun Shi plays with that woman's feelings and body, then how will that woman react?
Homicide?
This is extremely possible.
For this reason, Su Wuming asked Song Jun to tell the place where Sun Shila's woman went, that place is an inaccessible alley in Chang'an City, called a bandit alley, most of the people living in it are ordinary people living at the lowest level of society, that place is very dirty, but it is the most suitable for rich people to buy a set of courtyard gold houses in it.
After hearing this, Su Wuming and Di Bu had nothing to ask, and then they got up and said goodbye, they were going to go to the bandit alley to investigate and see if they could find the girl who was pulled away by Sun Shi.
And not long after Su Wuming, Di Bu and the others left, Tang Ye left the Tang Mansion in a hurry, he turned a few streets in Chang'an City, flashed into a mansion, and then met a person inside, told all these things, and stood aside after finishing speaking, waiting for news.
I don't know how long it took, the person in front of him nodded slightly, and asked, "Then Master Sun really didn't do it from your Tang Lou?" ”
"Yes, master, I have investigated all the people in the Tang Building, and no one has killed that Sun Master, besides, killing that Sun Master is not good for us!"
A slight smile appeared on the corner of the mouth of the person who was called the master, thinking to himself, Tang Ye thought that killing Sun Shi would not be good for him, but he knew that Sun Shi was dead, but it was indeed a little good for him, of course, at this time, this benefit was called a trouble for him.
However, this person obviously didn't care much about this trouble, and after a little contemplation, he said to Tang Ye: "Since the murderer is not your person, then let Su Wuming investigate, at this time, the most distressed person should be the emperor and not us." Speaking of this, the man added: "But you have to manage the tenement building for me, if it affects my major affairs because of this matter, I can't spare you." ”
Tang Ye responded again and again, and then left cautiously.
The news of Sun Shi's killing in the chess saint competition in Lefang quickly spread to the palace, and after the emperor Li Yan heard the news, he was immediately surprised, he felt that this matter was incredible, he didn't think that a chess saint should also be fought for by murder, but now Sun Shi is dead, and this Sun Shi is said to be the most likely person to become a chess saint before the game.
Li Yan is not a stupid person, he quickly thought of the consequences of this matter, if Sun Shi was really killed because he was fighting for the title of chess saint, then the culprit of this murder case was the emperor Li Yan himself, because he was going to hold this talent competition.
And if someone stands up and kills people for the sake of a chess saint, then for the title of the first genius of the Tang Dynasty, I am afraid that more people will be murdered, after all, the title of the first genius of the Tang Dynasty is more prominent than the title of the chess saint.
If Sun Shi was really killed because of this title, then there will definitely be people in the DPRK and China who will stand up and shout to stop the talent contest and continue the competition.
But if he really stopped the game, wouldn't that slap him Li Yan's face? In the future, if he, the emperor, will there be any weight?
A talent contest is said to stop, which is absolutely not allowed.
But if it doesn't stop, you have to accept the possibility that people will be killed continuously, and even, there are rumors and rumors from many people in the entire Tang Dynasty.
Li Yan was very embarrassed, he suddenly felt that being the emperor was not a pleasant thing, and after thinking about it for a long time, he sent someone to invite Li Deyu, and at this time, the only thing he could rely on was Li Deyu.
After Li Deyu saw Li Yan, his expression was not very good, because he could understand the emperor's situation at this time, and he also knew what the emperor called him for, but in the face of the emperor's predicament, even he didn't know what to do.
However, as a courtier, it is within his duty to share worries for the saint, so although he felt that it was difficult to choose, Li Deyu still gave the emperor Li Yan a few ideas, for example, the matter of the talent competition can be slowed down first, but it is not stopped, so the next chess competition must continue to be compared, and the killing of Sun Shi must continue to investigate, as for whether the talent competition will be suspended, it depends on the final investigation results.
Li Yan felt that Li Deyu's method was barely usable, although it could not completely solve the problem, but at least it delayed the troubles, and waited for the murder to be investigated clearly.
After the two of them discussed, Li Yan immediately ordered someone to call Linghu Gu, the secretary of Dali Temple, and asked Dali Temple about the case's opinion, when Li Yan learned that Linghu Gu had sent Di Bu and Su Wuming to investigate the murder case, his heart was a little calm, although he didn't know much about Di Bu and Su Wuming, but when the palace maid was killed, he still made him full of confidence in these two people.
Seeing Li Yan's satisfied smile, Ling Hu Gu's heart was also a little relieved, but this relief was only short-lived, because he suddenly thought that if Di Bu and Su Wuming solved the case, then how famous the two of them would be.
If it was before, he didn't have to care about Di Bu, although Di Bu had the ability, but his ability was not very big, at least not so big as to threaten his position, but now that Di Bu has taken refuge in Li Deyu, with Li Deyu behind him, Di Bu's power is indeed much stronger than he imagined.
And then there is that Su Wuming, from the beginning, he felt that this Su Wuming was a dangerous existence, at this time Su Wuming's fame, I am afraid that it is better than his fame of Dali Temple, the people of Chang'an City may have heard of Su Wuming, but few people have heard of him Linghu Gu.
Just when Ling Hugu thought like this, Li Yan asked him to kneel down, Ling Hugu was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly knelt down and retreated.
At this time, it is the twilight of spring, although the walls of the palace have been mottled, but the purple and red are blooming all over, but it also has a special taste, as if it is a piece of warmth in the solemnity.
Ling Hugu hadn't entered the palace for a long time, and he should have enjoyed the scenery here, but for some reason, he had no intention of appreciating it.
At this time, a burst of laughter suddenly came from not far away, Di Bu was slightly startled, looked up, and saw a woman playing among the flowers, the woman smiled lightly, as if she was a fairy who had entered the mortal world, only at that moment, it hooked Linghu Gu's heart.
However, Linghu Gu knew what this place was after all, so even though he admired the woman very much, he only stopped for a moment, and then hurried out of the palace.
After the figure of Ling Hugu disappeared, the laughter in the palace suddenly stopped, and the corner of the woman's mouth, who was originally like a fairy, suddenly showed a light smile.
