The words plunged the room into a terrible silence.

The three of them found that no one could answer this question, maybe only Jing Wan'er's eyes flickered.

Because this question suddenly reveals another terrible problem... Kill Huigen's... Is there only one person?

It actually felt a little eerie.

"Have you smelled it, my lord, there is a fragrance on King Changle's body?" Jing Wan'er said suddenly.

Pei Guards couldn't help but glance at Jing Wan'er coldly, only this girl was always a ghost, I was really afraid that she would say something in the next second.

Pei Tan was closer to Li Xiuqi than Jing Wan'er, so he could naturally smell the cold fragrance, but he didn't understand what Jing Wan'er meant.

"That should be the purple hall in the palace, the commonly used ambergris incense." This kind of fragrance appeared in Pei Tan's memory, he had met Zhongzong several times in the Zichen Palace, and what lingered in the hall was vaguely this incense.

Hearing Pei Tan's introduction, Jing Wan'er was also slightly stunned.

"In the early years, it was recorded in Chang'an Zhi, 'The Western Regions envoys offered strange incense, and the fragrance was along Chang'an for dozens of miles, and the moon was resting'." Jing Wan'er muttered.

Pei Tan looked at her: "Not bad, and this fragrance... A real rarity, even the last offering was almost ten years ago. Therefore, it stands to reason that such a precious tribute can only be used by His Majesty alone. ”

This is many times higher than the tribute of this level of Alocasia, and other tributes can still have favored courtiers and have the opportunity to enjoy them, but such a strange fragrance, like the name of ambergris, is only respected in the world.

The corners of Jing Wan'er's mouth moved slightly: "Could it be that this incense was also given by the queen to King Changle?" ”

Pei Tan's eyes were gloomy: "I said, the earliest record of the offering was ten years ago, and it should have been used up long ago." Even the current Majesty... Not necessarily. ”

Your Majesty doesn't have it, but a county prince does?

Jing Wan'er subconsciously thought that King Changle gave the royal tribute Alocasia flowers to Qinglong Temple privately, maybe this was not enough for him to commit the crime of bullying the king

, but privately used the strange incense that even the emperor couldn't afford to use, this is already an unusual swagger, don't believe that if Zhongzong knows, Zhongzong will forgive?

Jing Wan'er said: "I don't understand more and more what this prince thinks. ”

If you just look at these two contacts with Li Xiuqi, Jing Wan'er can't feel that he is an arrogant and wanton person. On that pale face, he is always calm and steady, it should be said that such a lonely temperament is more like a person of Qing cultivation than these monks of Qinglong Temple.

But thinking of his inappropriate dress, Jing Wan'er was silent again.

Pei Tan's eyes flashed suddenly, and after a while, he looked at the two people in front of him: "King Changle may not have despised the emperor's authority. ”

Jing Wan'er looked over in surprise.

Pei Tan's eyes flashed a few times, "Ten years ago, when this incense was tributed, it was the queen of heaven who was in power. Have you ever wondered... What was the court pattern at that time? ”

This time, Jing Wan'er reacted half a beat slower, whether she is a girl in the boudoir, it is difficult to understand these court disputes.

Pei Guard's expression froze: "At that time, Prince Teng was still the most famous prince in the court and the opposition. ”

Exactly, just by looking at the popularity of the poetry and wine of King Teng's pavilion, you know that His Royal Highness King Teng was splendid in the past.

"When the Queen of Heaven received this tribute, if you want to give it to your ministers, King Teng may be one of them." Pei Tan's analysis even drove the political pattern of the year, which made Jing Wan'er feel that her ears and eyes were freshly washed.

Pei Shiwei said coldly: "So the ambergris incense of King Teng's Mansion was given by the Queen of Heaven in the past. ”

And King Teng may not like to use such a strong incense, after driving the crane to the west, the ambergris was left in the hands of King Changle.

A line of analysis that is more thorough.

And if this is the truth, Li Xiuqi, the king of Changle, really did not do anything to deceive the king.

Moreover, even if Zhongzong knew about Li Xiuqi's use of ambergris, if he pursued it, it would involve the queen of heaven, and His Majesty would only turn a blind eye and pretend not to know.

Therefore, Changle Wang knows this, so he will use ambergris without scruples?

"But there are so many incense to use, why use ambergris?" Is it deliberately so ostentatious.

But there must not be much ambergris left in King Teng's mansion, and how long can it be swaggered.

Pei Tan said a little quietly for a moment: "The characteristic of ambergris compared to other incense is that it can last for a long time, and it is rumored that it is made of dragon saliva, so it will be favored by the emperor, but in the final analysis, it is just a legend." ”

"When we saw King Changle, he looked like he was going to bed, who would use incense when he went to bed?"

Jing Wan'er's eyebrows were a little wrinkled, and they were still so fragrant. Doesn't it affect rest?

On this day, it seems that it was wasted again.

Jing Wan'er didn't know if she could see some waves from Pei Tan's face.

When I went back to my room and lay on the bed in my room, I felt the cold and hard bed under me, and only a thin piece of satin was covered, but this was not the reason why Miss Jing couldn't sleep.

Although the conditions in the temple are difficult, Jing Wan'er is a person who has slept in the palace Chase shop, how can she care about this.

She just pricked up her ears and listened carefully to the sounds outside. The courtyard was quiet, as if the whole temple had slept.

After two nights of observation, she was already very sure that the cold-faced Pei guard was not an iron-beaten immortal after all, and whenever the time passed and the ugly time appeared, he would squint for half an hour.

Jing Wan'er just wanted to gamble today to see if he would fall asleep at the same time.

The breathing of a person who practices martial arts is different when he is asleep, and it is easy to hear the difference.

After hearing the sound of Pei Guard's sleep, Jing Wan'er sat up from the bed. If you ask her why she knows, each of those imperial guards in the palace is a master of internal strength, and only she who often goes out to deal with corpses in the miscellaneous room will often deal with the guards.

After Jing Wan'er confirmed, she pushed away the quilt on her body, put on cotton socks and stepped on the ground, she was also very good at not alarming people, as long as the sound she made was within a certain magnification, she would not be discovered by Pei Guards.

She walked over and opened the door, paused, and then stepped out with both feet.

There will be no monk in the courtyard anymore, and she will not go out like this, it is not an unbearable winter night, and it will not affect her if she goes out like this.

"Jing Wan'er." A soft voice in my ear.

Jing Wan'er paused and turned around slowly.

Pei Tan opened the door and stood inside the door.

"Where are you going?"

Jing Wan'er didn't even know when Pei Tan was standing there, and there was a glimmer in her eyes.

There would hardly be any flaws in Jing Wan'er's strategy, since she was the only man she had met.

She saw a candle flame in the room behind Pei Tan, but she didn't dare to come out until the candlelight was extinguished.

Jing Wan'er lowered her eyes and was silent for a long time, and said, "My lord, you said that the judgment of the case is based on evidence, and if you blindly stay in the room, there will be no evidence to send." ”

The Pei clan's power is indeed very large, and it is possible to find out the information of the tribute from the palace, as well as some other means. But these are only superficial efforts after all. Huigen still has no clue what the cause of death is.

The cause of death in a case cannot even be determined, let alone the murder weapon and murderer, which are far away.

Pei Tan's eyes were deep, and looking at Jing Wan'er, he knew that this girl would not sit still, "So, what do you want to do now?" ”

This doesn't make sense, is she going to steal when the night is dark and the wind is high?

But the evidence wasn't something she could steal.

Jing Wan'er wanted to say something but stopped, so she blindly looked at Pei Tan with her eyes, and Pei Tan said after a long time: "What's wrong?" ”

Jing Wan'er said: "If I say it, I'm afraid the adults will laugh at me." ”

Pei Tan's eyes moved, and he squinted again, "I won't laugh at you." ”

Jing Wan'er seemed to be looking at the expression on his face.

She also said uncertainly: "Even if... A woman's intuition? ”

Pei Tan didn't hear clearly for a while, "What?" ”

Jing Wan'er looked at him even more motionlessly, "Adults are men, are you willing to trust women's intuition?" ”

Pei Tan stared at her and stopped talking.

But there may have been some incredible changes in his face.

Before Pei Gongzi came out, he grew up in the Pei family for more than 20 years, and most of the women who could marry into the Pei family were from the five surnames and seven sects, and they knew the general grace and bearing. A woman's intuition is like this...
