Chapter 691: The Case Occurred
Not to mention that Pei Xuanji was terrified outside, but Pei Shiju, who was inside, had a peaceful face, the cane in his hand knocked on the ground, and there was a clear sound, and after a period of darkness, the light lit up before meeting.
"I didn't expect the famous Horror Mountain Villa to be here." Pei Shiju glanced around, only to see the pavilions in front of him, the birds singing and the fragrance of flowers, and faintly there were bursts of melodious bells, Pei Shiju shook his head again and again.
"Although the Horror Mountain Villa is what the emperor sees, the so-called horror is not literal, which of the people here is not a person who asks the immortals, and the emperor attaches great importance to these people." Song He shook his head and said, "If it weren't for the importance of this case, the villain wouldn't have borrowed this place." ”
"I heard, you've been stocking up on a lot of things lately?" Pei Shiju glanced at Song He and said.
"Whether it's the Hebei War, or the grassland people in the future, that kind of thing is the main force, look at the recent emperor every war has not used this thing, not only because the power is not strong, but more importantly, Li Zhao can't know, otherwise, it won't be able to play a role on the battlefield at a critical time."
"If you don't make a move, forget it, once you make a shot, it's a thunderbolt." Pei Shiju naturally knew what kind of place this so-called Horror Mountain Villa was, but what he didn't expect was that he actually appeared in this place.
"Hehe, no one would know that after the Imperial City, there is such a place with beautiful mountains and rivers in Longshou Yuan, and no one would have thought that in such a place, there is a terrifying mountain villa hidden, and almost all the Taoist priests in Datang have been invited." Song He said with a smile.
"Has that person been recruited?" Pei Shiju did not continue to ask, what was in the Terror Mountain Villa, he vaguely knew something, but this place, except for some eunuchs. It is Li Xin's guards guarding this place, and in this mountain villa, there are secret sentinels everywhere, and there are almost hundreds of Taoist priests in it, refining gunpowder in it according to Li Xin's requirements.
"Inside the Horror Hills. Who else can not recruit? Song He said proudly: "We don't do anything on weekdays, except for serving the emperor, now we can finally find something to do." ”
"Who is it?" Pei Shiju asked a little nervously.
"The emperor doesn't know anyone, and the inside of Jinyiwei is uneven, although he has only recruited a thousand presidents for the time being, but does Master Pei believe that a Jinyi Wei Qianqian can do such a thing? Moreover, this matter is also related to the clan and the minister. Song He shook his head and said.
"Clan?" Pei Shiju's face suddenly looked bad, although the emperor had already made it clear that no matter who was involved in this matter. will investigate to the end, and they don't even mind killing the nine clans, but if it involves the clan, even if it involves the clan, even if it is themselves, they have to be careful.
"We have already captured that Jinyi Wei Qian, and the person behind this will be able to be arrested soon, but the people of the clan, the boss is ready." Song He led Pei Shiju to a wing room. I casually took out a stack of materials from a few cases.
Pei Shiju took it, and there was a confession from the craftsman who sold the mold on it. There is also a confession that came to assassinate the craftsman, he looked at the confession, and he didn't pay much attention to the name of the general manager on it, but the officials involved above were shocking, Li Ran, the son of Li Ren'an, the prince of Zhao County, and He Zhun, the son of He Chou, the squire of the Ministry of Works, were on the list.
"What is Grandpa Song going to do?" Pei Shiju put down the document in his hand. said: "Although this clan is relatively sudden, but in the end, it is the clan, the emperor said that the nine clans will be destroyed, I am afraid that the newly established clan will be wiped out." ”
"They are not the masterminds, not the Nine Clans. But the others are maybe, and more importantly, the affairs of the clan are also the affairs of the emperor, and the emperor will deal with them as he says. Song He said without hesitation. This kind of thing was originally a trivial matter, but if it was said that the Nine Clans would be destroyed, I am afraid that everyone in the court would oppose it.
"Then let's catch it first!" Pei Shiju looked at the documents, then shook his head and sighed: "Look, here, there are as many as five sons of ministers, including the sons of the family, the sons of the ministers of the dragon, and even myself, and finally the one who was hand-picked by the emperor himself, but in the end, he betrayed the Son of Heaven for the sake of these copper-smelling things, and I don't know what kind of attitude the Son of Heaven is." ”
"People's hearts are insufficient, so it is naturally so." Song He said disdainfully: "There are many people in the world, and only those of us who are loyal to the Son of Heaven are always loyal to the Son of Heaven. ”
After hearing this, Pei Shiju touched his beard and didn't continue, but said lightly: "Although the last person is not exactly careful, but the three people around them can be sent to keep an eye on them, they are all old men of Jinyiwei, even if they are killed, if they escape and betray Jinyiwei, it is nothing to solve this case." Father-in-law, you can't take it lightly. ”
"That's natural, although Jinyiwei monitored the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty, we are also people who monitor Jinyiwei." Song He touched a jade ring on his finger and said proudly: "As long as this Qian Zong is caught, everything will fall into place." However, my lord, I'm afraid these people need to be dealt with by the Criminal Department. The boss also needs to go to Chang'an City to sit down. ”
"Hey, I'm old, I'm old, I didn't expect to come out for a walk at this time." Pei Shiju stood up, leaned on crutches, pulled out a piece of paper in front of him, and shook his head.
"The emperor is thousands of miles away, and the most trusted person in the court is the boss. In the palace, Concubine Pei also often goes, hehe, no, isn't Concubine Pei pregnant again? Song He said with a smile: "The experienced Wen Po in the palace has said that this time it must be a little highness." ”
"Oh, really?" Pei Shiju was very happy after hearing this, and said with a smile: "It is the blessing of my Pei family to be able to spread heirs for the royal family." Go, go, dispose of these guys to go. ”
"Please, sir." Song He was very respectful, and respectfully sent Pei Shiju out and let Pei Xuanji continue.
The carriage moved slowly again, and I don't know how many times it turned, and by the time Pei Xuanji reacted, he had already arrived at his family's mansion, and when he looked at it again, it was already dark outside.
"Go. Palace. Pei Shiju got out of the carriage, Pei Xuanji was about to go home, but he saw Pei Shiju shaking his head and said, "Come on, order Duan Qi to go to the Wude Hall to see the old man." ”
"Father, it's better to do it tomorrow." Pei Xuanji is still hungry, although he is not tired all day today. But I was very worried in my heart, and the whole person was nervous for a day.
"Then you go home to rest, and the old man enters the palace." Pei Shiju snorted coldly, and the frightened Pei Xuanji had no choice but to accompany Pei Shiju into the palace.
In the Wude Palace, Wei Yuancheng was on night duty, and there were a few dishes on the table in front of him, watching the music while eating, but when he saw a sound of footsteps, he saw Pei Shiju walking in with a cane. I was stunned for a moment, and then I saw the saber held by Pei Xuanji behind me, and suddenly my face changed, and I knew that something big had happened, so I quickly stood up.
"Boss, why did you enter the palace late at night?" Wei Yuancheng couldn't help but step forward and said.
"You're just right." Pei Shiju nodded, looked at the dishes, and said to the waiter on the side of the servant, "Go." Get some food and bring it up, the old man is hungry too. Be more prepared, and wait for the next general to come. Also, wait and ask if the queen has rested. If not, say that the minister has something important to ask to see. ”
After Wei Yuancheng heard this, his face suddenly turned pale, this is a big deal. I'm afraid it also involves a harem or clan, otherwise, it won't alarm the eldest grandson.
After half a ring, he saw Duan Qi walking in in armor, and his face was grim. Only a pair of eyes were shining, but after coming in, he found that something was wrong, and there were a few more black-clothed guards beside Pei Shiju.
"General Duan, have you eaten at night, no, let's eat a little together!" Pei Shiju pointed to the wine and food on the side and said, "I'm afraid I need to bother Lord Duan tonight, and I don't even have time to sleep at night." ”
"Boss, please just give orders." Duan Qi just glanced at Pei Shiju, and ate the dishes next to him cleanly, he ate quickly, and when he finished eating, Pei Shiju was chewing slowly.
"I'm getting older, and I'm slow to eat." Pei Shiju finished the last bowl of rice after half a ring, asked the waiter to put away the dishes and chopsticks, glanced at Duan Qi, and said, "General Duan, how does the emperor treat you?" ”
"Grace is as heavy as a mountain, and even death cannot repay it." Duan Qi said without thinking.
"What if someone wants to spoil the emperor?" Pei Shiju asked again.
"Kill it." Duan Qi snorted coldly, and the murderous intent on his face flashed.
"How much can you master in Jingying?" Pei Shiju stood up, took Li Xin's sword, looked at Duan Qi and said.
"What the boss wants to do, just tell me." Duan Qi said loudly.
"Good. Then prepare, the old man will go to see the queen first. Pei Shiju was waiting for him, and suddenly there was a sound of ringing outside, his face was stunned, and he said, "The queen is here." ”
Sure enough, as soon as the incense wind rolled outside, I saw the eldest grandson Wujian pulling Li Chengzong slowly, and Pei Shiju hurriedly greeted him.
"Lao Niangniang came in person, it is the sin of the old minister." Pei Shiju and the others greeted him and said.
"The eldest is the patriarch of the four dynasties of this dynasty, and he should come to the palace. What's more, it's so late, the boss still wants to enter the palace, there must be something important, and the important thing can't be delayed, boss, what is the matter with finding this palace? The eldest grandson Wujian had a soft voice and a graceful expression, but he showed great respect for Pei Shiju.
Pei Shiju sighed in his heart, no wonder the eldest grandson Wujian can become the queen, but this kind of bearing is not comparable to ordinary people. I didn't dare to slack off at the moment, and hurriedly said: "Nine days ago, when the emperor was in Bianzhou to observe the people's situation, he found Zhenguan fake money, and he was furious in his heart, and he secretly ordered the ministers to join the Terror Mountain Villa and Jinyiwei to investigate thoroughly, and now there is a result, and it is preliminarily concluded that there are as many as 52 people involved in the case, including ministers, ministers' sons, and clans, and the others are easy to do, but this clan, the old ministers and others dare not decide, please Niangniang Ming. ”
"Fake money?" Wei Yuancheng and Duan Qi's faces changed, and only then did they know why Pei Shiju came late at night, this is no longer an ordinary matter, it is indeed related to Jiangshan Sheji. (To be continued......)
