Chapter XXVIII
Li Jin is sick.
I don't know if it's because the disgust has played a role, or if the anger has been too strong in recent days, in short, I want to be benevolent, and I fell ill in bed.
Pei Xiu was anxious about this, and searched for countless imperial doctors in the palace and countless famous doctors in Chang'an City, all of whom waited in the Shu Palace, waiting for consultation, but without exception, they were all driven out before they approached Li Jin's bed.
He was sick, but he refused to be healed.
The old doctor who left at the end stroked his beard and glanced at Pei Xiu meaningfully, "Heart disease still needs heart medicine, the old man thinks that adults might as well find a Taoist priest to try." ”
Pei Xiu sneered, waved his hand at him and scolded him to leave quickly.
The King of Shu can always follow the twelve monks, do you need to find a Taoist priest if you really fall into evil?
Pei Xiu snorted sharply, and stepped in small steps.
Gao Yang's case is over. Gao Yang was afraid of the crime, and His Majesty issued a decree to punish his son for never being allowed to enter the court as an official, and Gao Yang's elder brother Dingguo Marquis Gao Bin was stripped of his title and fined one year as a punishment, in addition, no one in the Gao family was implicated.
Those who are officials are still officials, and those who are in business are still in business, even if there is a temporary cold fall because of this matter, how long can you expect people's memories to stop here?
The world is bustling, all for profit. The world is crowded, all for profit.
There will always be only innocuous scars, no long-lasting bleeding wounds.
And there is something even worse: the Gao clan has completely become a prince's party.
This time, the King of Shu not only failed to let the Gao clan hurt the foundation as he wished, but also self-defeatingly pushed them all to the hostile camp, which can be said to be a loss to his wife and a soldier.
Now the Gao clan regards the prince as a benefactor, especially Gao Yang's brother Gao Bin, after being released from prison, he directly led a few direct clansmen to kneel in front of the East Palace and kowtow to thank him, and he kowtowed for eighteen times before he was invited into the East Palace by the prince who came in a hurry.
suffered such a big loss, and it is understandable that the king of Shu was sick.
Pei Xiuli straightened his shirt and raised his hand to knock on the door.
Li Jin's voice inside the door came out with anger, "Get out, this king is not sick!" ”
Pei Xiu said softly, "Your Highness, it's a minister." ”
There was silence in the door for a while, and then Li Jin's weak voice came, "Come in." ”
Pei Xiu hurriedly opened the door and walked in.
The light in the room was dim, and he squinted his eyes for a while to get used to it before he found Li Jin's figure.
Instead of lying on the bed, he sat in the Taishi chair in front of the outhouse, reading a book in his hand.
Pei Xiu bowed his hand, "Your Highness." ”
Li Jin hummed and raised his eyelids, "All sent away?" ”
Pei Xiu should be, "But I don't know why His Highness refuses to ask the imperial doctor for treatment?" ”
Li Jin coughed a few times, unhurriedly picked up the tea on the table and took a sip, "Sick, it's interesting whether it's true or false." The imperial doctor came to see, after taking two doses of medicine, what good would it do to the king? ”
Pei Xiu lowered his eyes, "Your Highness is wise." ”
Li Jin hummed, "How did you explain what you did?" ”
Pei Xiu said, "We have arranged manpower over there, and the clues have been laid out, and now we are just waiting to invite you into the urn." ”
Li Jin nodded, "Then don't delay, explain to Yan Wu, and take advantage of the fact that the case has not faded out of the field of vision of the emperor and the prince, and quickly submit the evidence, so as not to have too many dreams at night and cause another incident." ”
Pei Xiu should be, "Then the King of Wei is ......"
"Don't startle the snake just yet. That guy is very alert, and if he leaks the news in advance, it is hard to guarantee that he will not notice that something is wrong. ”
"I know." Pei Xiu said respectfully.
Li Jin began to cough again at this time, and sweat began to break out on his forehead, so he had no choice but to put down the book, and the whole person fell into the cloud brocade group behind the chair and closed his eyes to recuperate.
Pei Xiu saw that he looked tired, and was about to say goodbye, but heard Li Jin speak again, "Rong and the county lord, what have you been doing lately?" ”
Pei Xiu hurriedly replied, "The county lord has not been out of the East Palace since he entered the palace and met the queen, but according to the people on the other side of the East Palace, the county lord seems to be in the palace...... Raised a face. ”
Li Jin opened his eyes and raised some interest, "Make it clear." ”
Pei Xiu should be, "The minister heard that the head was actually the one that the county lord met by chance on the street before and forcibly caught him in the East Palace. was originally a ranger, and because he was born handsome, he was deeply loved by the county lord...... Now he has been sealed as a personal guard, and he takes it with him every day, and he never leaves him for a moment. ”
"Ranger?" Li Jin couldn't help but mock, "What's wrong with their family?" The old and the young all like the Ranger. ”
Pei Xiu held back a smile and continued to report, "The minister also heard that the county lord made an exception to allow that ranger not to have to kneel, Yan Xie was very angry about this matter, and beat several of his subordinates to vent his anger." ”
"Interesting, interesting." Li Jin laughed, this laugh couldn't help but pull his lungs and couldn't stop coughing, and hurriedly picked up the tea bowl and poured it violently, straightening out his breath, "Continue to keep an eye on her, this king wants to see, what else can she do to impress people next." ”
Pei Xiu's eyes should be.
"Also, find out where the letter Gao Yang received came from as soon as possible." Li Jin added.
Pei Xiu hurriedly said, "Speaking of this, Chen has made a new discovery recently. ”
"According to Gao Yang's confidant, this letter did suddenly appear in the study, and Gao Yang happened to be in the dire situation of being investigated for corruption by Wang Yi at that time, so as soon as he received the letter, he immediately sent it to you like a treasure, without the slightest delay."
"It's also because things are moving so fast, so very few people know about the existence of this letter, including Gobin."
Li Jin pondered for a while, "So do you think that the original purpose of the person who sent the letter was to save Gao Yang or harm Gao Yang?" ”
Pei Xiu said cautiously, "Then I'm afraid it depends on the relationship between this person and you." ”
Li Jin raised his eyes and looked at him, and did not blame him for being rude, but agreed, "If this person really guessed from the beginning that this king would kill Gao Yang, it would be a bit tricky." ”
There is such a person who holds his handle in his hand and knows his temperament well in the world, and he really cannot be at ease in any way.
"Not really." Pei Xiu said with a smile, "If this person's purpose was to harm Gao Yang in the first place, then his subsequent actions to save the Gao Yang clan just exposed this person's weakness of not being ruthless enough." An enemy with a weak point is not a difficult enemy to deal with. ”
Li Jin nodded in agreement.
And if this person's purpose was to save Gao Yang in the first place, then there is no need to be afraid. Because it means a mistake in judgment, and no smart person would make such a stupid mistake.
"Check, keep checking. No matter what the purpose is, be sure to find this person behind the scenes to this king first. Li Jin said.
Pei Xiu should be.
Li Jin waved his hand and said tiredly, "Go down." ”
Pei Xiu hurriedly bowed and retreated, and did not forget to close the door carefully before leaving.
He hurriedly walked out of the Shu Palace, burying his head and walking, without looking up and looking around.
In fact, Pei Xiu did not tell Li Jin all the results of the investigation.
And what he didn't say was precisely the most important thing: the person who sent the letter was seen.
At that time, there was a sudden fire in the front yard of Gaofu, and everyone rushed to put out the fire. However, there was a domestic servant, because he was blind at night, and accidentally ran in the opposite direction and ran to the vicinity of the study opposite the front yard.
The servant said that although it was not really seen at night, the temperament of the other party was enough to impress.
According to his description, although the person who sent the letter was masked, he could tell from just looking at those eyes that the other party was not from Chang'an City.
And the most interesting thing is that the messenger also noticed that someone found him, but he did not choose to kill him, but only lit his sleeping hole and left in a hurry.
That's a lot of fun.
He chose to do this kind of thing, but he did not want to involve the lives of innocent people.
Isn't this the same behavior as the act of manipulating the technique of disgust to save the Gaoyang people?
So is this person too good, or is he disdainful of leaving clues?
Pei Xiu doesn't have an answer yet.
However, he had already taken the Gaofu family as a servant, and as long as time passed, he believed that he would be able to find the person who sent the letter.
