Chapter 123: Trouble
After Heytea gave up leaving the city, Jing Wan'er let Heytea hide in the Moon Tower of Zichan'er and his wife, the most dangerous place may not be safe, but there is no other expedient solution in front of her.
"Girl, the slave has no relatives in the world, and it is no longer important for the slave or maid to leave the city. But this clearance document can help the girl, and it can't be wasted on the slave in any case. ”
Jing Wan'er closed her eyes, and sometimes she would wonder if it was worth it, tossing and turning like this, and it was dawn.
Shen Xingwen fell asleep and yawned. glanced at Hu Chao in the middle of the prison.
One night, Hu Chao received a hundred lashes. Now he was covered in protruding bones, revealing his chest one by one, and Bai Sensen was terrifying.
Shen Xingwen slowly walked to the front of the prison and looked at Hu Chao.
"Still refuse to confess that you plotted to kill the prince, and your accomplice?" listen
Seeing his voice, Hu Chao's originally closed eyes suddenly opened, almost sleepless all night, and the officials did not whip him again in the morning, he couldn't help but fall asleep.
Until this moment, Hu Chao knew that none of this was a joke.
The former prince's ghost haunted him, and the old case was reopened after more than 20 years.
"I didn't harm the prince," Hu Chao's teeth mixed with blood, "Does Dali Temple want to bend into a move?" “
Shen Xingwen looked at him and was unmoved: "I did beat you, but I can guarantee that it is not a bend, the word bent is too far away from you." “
Hu Chao looked at Shen Xingwen, is there really a stupid person in this world who will admit to the crime of murdering the prince? Murdering the prince is not a matter of lightly waving a few whips, and I am afraid that it will not be enough to pull out Ling Chi outside the noon gate.
Shen Xingwen continued to sit on the chair from yesterday, raising his eyelids and looking at Hu Chao.
Yesterday mentioned Ming Chongyan and Qiu Shenxian, from Hu Chao's reaction, we can already know seven, seven, eight and eight.
"Actually, you must harm the former prince, and another point may be because the former prince has been in charge of the country three times and is deeply supported by the government and the opposition, but because of Ming Chongyan's words in front of the queen of heaven, the former prince's mother and son were separated, and they were finally abolished. In your hearts, no matter whether the former prince really killed Ming Chongyan or not, he already hated you warlocks in his heart. Such a prince, once he has the opportunity to return to Chang'an and control the court, what awaits you warlocks is death. “
Shen Xingwen looked at Hu Chao gloomily.
Hu Chao's face trembled again because of these words.
Shen Xingwen slowly leaned forward and said, "So in order to protect yourself, you also have to find ways to force the former prince to death, so that he will never have a chance to make a comeback, obviously, you have succeeded." “
Hu Chao looked at him: "This is all your assumption." “
Death will not admit to the crime.
Shen Xingwen frowned, and then said slowly: "That's why I need you." “
The official handed the prepared confession to Shen Xingwen, and Shen Xingwen said:
"Sign and draw on this piece of paper, and the motive and evidence are all complete."
Hu Chao looked at Shen Xingwen speechlessly, judging from the day he "got along" yesterday, this young man was smart and cunning. But what did he say at this moment? Let Hu Chao look like an idiot.
"Don't you want to?" Shen Xingwen seemed to see Hu Chao's thoughts, took the confession in his hand, and stared at Hu Chao, "You warlocks should believe in the reincarnation of cause and effect, right?" From the day you decided to frame the former prince, you should have expected the end of today. “
Hu Chao looked at Shen Xingwen, and suddenly the corners of his mouth trembled uncontrollably, "This is Dali Temple?" Do you know what will happen to your Dali Temple if people outside know that I have been arrested here? Hu Chao looks like a smile but not like a smile.
Shen Xingwen looked at him, "What will happen?" “
Hu Chao didn't sleep all night, both eyes were red, he stared at Shen Xingwen like this for a long time, "Razed to the ground, burned by fire, and disappeared from the map of Chang'an." “
Shen Xingwen moved his eyebrows, and said lightly: "So powerful? big
Li Temple was established from the beginning of the Northern Qi Dynasty, and it has been followed for hundreds of years without interruption. “
This kind of ridicule is really quiet, but Hu Chao didn't change his face, he stared at Shen Xingwen with hatred.
Shen Xingwen also stared at him coldly.
Although Pei Tan did not personally interrogate the prisoner this time, with him sitting in Dali Temple, others did not dare to come nonsense.
In the past two days, everyone has something on their minds, originally about the capture of Hu Chao, Jing Wan'er was the first to plan to tell Pei Tan, but Pei Tan left without waiting for her to speak, and Shen Xingwen just happened to come to the door...
"My lord, what did Guanglu Siqing and you say?" Jing Wan'er opened her mouth carefully, she had already wanted to ask this question, knowing that she was trespassing, but she really had too many questions in her heart.
The daughter of Guanglu Siqing, the titular lord of the Tang Dynasty, whose name is Li Nunu, is counted... It's as big as Jing Wan'er.
Do you want to tell Pei Tan about Li Nunu finding her?
Jing Wan'er didn't know how to talk to Pei, after all, Li Nunu started from scratch
didn't show up at the end, and Jing Wan'er didn't know what her purpose was.
She only vaguely felt that the adult's marriage was probably even more pure.
Pei talked for a long time before saying: "I just talked about some things in the court, and I didn't say much." ”
After seeing Guanglu Siqing come back, Pei Tan knew about Hu Chao, so he didn't talk much about this meeting. Looking at Pei Tan's expression, it was not as simple and relaxed as he said.
Jing Wan'er hid her eyelids with some hesitation.
Since the day of Hu Chao's "mysterious disappearance", the spies of Shangshufu have been looking for them in the city all the time, but after three days, there has been no news.
"I was the first to get there, and now, you can't even find someone?" Zong Chuke looked at the spies who had returned in vain with an expressionless face.
The spy lowered his head with a pale face: "Lord Qiqi, the beggars we sent went deep into the major dead corners and black alleys in Chang'an, and they couldn't find any trace of Hu Chao hiding. It stands to reason that it can't be, unless..."
Zong Chuke looked at the spy, and his voice was a little colder: "Unless what?" ”
The spy had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "Unless he hides in the houses of the houses, in that case, we will not be able to find out." “
There are so many big gate lords in Chang'an, how can they be allowed to go door to door and search, and they are far from having this power.
Zong Chuke stared at the spy: "In Chang'an City, it is impossible for any family to be willing to shelter Hu Chao. ”
If Hu Chao really had a backer, he wouldn't have lived like a mouse in Chang'an all these years. Zong Chuke knew this very well, so he let Hu Chao hide and wander, anyway, it was the Monkey King, who couldn't turn over the Five Finger Mountain.
But now... Did Hu Chao evaporate from the world?
The spies suddenly shook their faces: "Could it be... Hu is out of town? ”
This may have scared them all, theoretically it is impossible for Hu Chao to disappear, but now it is impossible for it to come true.
Zong Chuke asked: "What about the Chang'an City Gate, what is the change?" ”
Now the inventory is extremely strict, and it is impossible for each family to issue customs clearance documents at will, unless Hu Chao has someone behind him to help him.
Zong Chuke stared at him fixedly: "Are you sure that Hu Chao is no longer in the city."
? “
The spies kowtowed vigorously, they never missed anything, thinking about it, could it be that Hu Chao had become a ghost and hid in hell. He shuddered.
"Lord Shangshu, what should I do if this continues?" It was too dangerous to let Hu Chao go outside, and I thought that Hu Chao would not be able to dodge it horizontally, but if this person does not die one day, the greater the threat to the current Shangshu Mansion.
Zong Chuke clasped his fingers on the table: "Take a document from Shangshu Mansion to go out of the city, and take a team of people out of the city to search." ”
The spy immediately nodded, "Yes." ”
The leader of the spies quickly led people away, and his subordinates quietly asked: "Boss, how can we search, if Hu Chao has fled to the south and north of the world, how can we find people and bring them back?" ”
The spy stared at the man coldly, "Then the meal when I went back to the house today is our severed head meal." ”
His subordinates turned pale.
"The north city gate is all official families, and ordinary people can only go out of the city through the south city gate, so we will go out of the south city gate first."
The group went out of the city effortlessly with papers, and outside the city was a desolate official road to search along the way, and there were many things discarded by others on both sides.
"Boss! Yes, I found it again! ”
One of his men rushed to the spy with a handful of debris in his hand.
The spy looked at it and saw that it was a torn customs clearance document. He immediately stared, even if ordinary people had already left the city, they would not easily tear up the customs clearance paperwork, this one was torn so thoroughly, it was like venting his anger.
The other subordinates hesitated, "It's also possible... Was it discarded by other passers-by? “
After all, the customs clearance documents can only be used once, and after leaving the city, it is a piece of waste paper, which is useless.
The spy stared at the paper for a long time, "Find all the torn pieces and put them together." ”
All his men acted immediately, but fortunately it didn't rain for the past two days
The wind was blowing, and it was not long before all the pieces of paper scattered in the grass were found.
Putting all the productions together, all of a sudden, the handwriting was revealed.
"Song Beichen..."The spout's face changed, this was the pseudonym used by Hu Chao in Chang'an City.
The spy immediately put the found document into his chest, "Leave two people here to continue the search, I will go to interrogate the city gate guards, and report to Lord Shangshu!" ”
The document has a specific date of leaving the city, as well as the number of people who will leave the city. sent this document to the guard at the city gate, asked who was on duty that day, and then showed the portrait of Hu Chao, who had been prepared a long time ago, to the guard on duty, and immediately determined the matter of Hu Chao out of the city.
Moreover, I knew that Hu Chao went out of the city alone, without horses or vehicles. Moreover, on that day, in the hour before and after Hu Chao was in the city, there were no cars and horses from large families passing by, which meant that it was impossible for Hu Chao to catch someone else's car halfway.
How far can he go alone?
The city guard was shocked, his face trembled and he remembered something: "There was a big day that day."
The people of the temple said that a murderer had escaped, and they must go out of the city to get people..."
The spies' faces were pale, the guards' faces were pale, and the Huangkou children in Chang'an City knew that the Dali Temple Monk Shufu was a mortal enemy, did he inadvertently cause any trouble?
