Hearing Pei Tan say this, Li Xiuqi just stared at Pei Tan.

"Pei Siqing, this king still has to pack his bags to return to Beijing tomorrow, you can go."

Pei Tan said: "The prince once asked the ministers to investigate the case and return your innocence. ”

Li Xiuqi's eyes moved: "This king didn't say so. ”

Li Xiuqi really didn't say anything to let Pei Tan return his innocence.

But Pei Tan looked at him: "But the minister understands that this was what you meant at that time, Lord Wang. ”

There are some things that don't need to be said. At that time, it didn't matter whether Li Xiuqi meant this or not.

"Although this king did not send this letter back to Chang'an, it does not mean that this king will not say anything after returning to Chang'an." No matter how a generation of kings and grandsons looks, Wen Wen also has his power.

Pei Tan's voice was slightly deep: "Lord Wang? ”

Li Xiuqi said: "Send Pei Siqing out." ”

Two warrior monk-like people appeared in the room, looking at Pei Tan with unkind eyes. In just five days, Pei Tan became a thorn in the side of the first temple of the Tang Dynasty.

After being sent out of the hospital, Jing Wan'er was sure that the people in the courtyard couldn't hear it, so she looked at Pei Tan: "Didn't the adults find that there were more boxes in the prince's house?" ”

Pei Tan said: "I found out. ”

Jing Wan'er's eyes were faint: "But it is said that the prince is lightly dressed and has never come to the temple to cultivate, and when he came, he had nothing but a long coat, why did he leave, but suddenly there was such a big box?" ”

Could it be that the monks of Qinglong Temple will prepare some parting gifts.

Can't force open King Changle's box, "There will be a way to deal with the box." Pei Tan said.

Jing Wan'er was a little puzzled, in this situation, I really don't know what else Pei Tan can do.

Back in the courtyard, Shen Xingwen waited there with a smile: "Adults called me?" ”

Pei Tan looked at him: "Nothing." ”

The three of them were locked up in the house and talked.

Pei Tan said: "You used to be a lifter, you naturally have a good mind, you might as well analyze it, what can these headless clues be connected with?" ”

Pei Tan actually planned to tell Shen Xingwen all this.

Shen Xingwen also squinted: "If the adult trusts his subordinates, the subordinates should be willing to share their worries for the adults." ”

Pei Tan looked at him, "If the murderer is the prince, how do you think he committed the crime?" ”

I didn't expect Pei Tan to be so straightforward, and Shen Xingwen's face looked even more playful, I am afraid that King Changle is the real culprit behind the scenes is what Shen Chengzuo is most happy to see, what does Pei Tan mean by this.

"If the prince is the real murderer, then he killed Huigen and Concubine Wang De successively, and Huigen died in the attic that the prince repaired, there is no more obvious murder scene than this..."

"I guess, Huigen broke through the scene between the prince and Concubine Wang De, so the prince killed people and killed him, but because the adults did not let go of the case, the prince was afraid of finding himself, so he killed the princess of the foreign princess without doing anything."

Speaking of which, where is it like talking about a prince, he is simply a hooligan.

Pei Tan's face was pale: "Did you say this, did you think about it?" ”

Jing Wan'er didn't want to hear it. Analyzing the case in this way, all the people in Dali Temple were unjustly killed.

Shen Xingwen smiled, he didn't think about it, and said with some regret: "It's a pity, although Shen wants to infer like everyone else, but adults need evidence, and what is missing in this case is evidence." ”

Logically, you can suspect Li Xiuqi from 10,000 reasons, but without evidence, the suspicion cannot be established.

And what they suspect is a Tang Dynasty prince and grandson, not some other peddler pawn.

The three of them looked at each other speechlessly, so they are here now, are they thinking about what evidence they can find to convict Li Xiuqi?

"Actually, this case is not without evidence." Jing Wan'er looked at Pei Tan, "My lord, in the Huigen case, the murder weapon was a wooden fish. Hye-geun's body is also in the ice cellar. ”

There is evidence, but all the evidence cannot be connected to the last line.

Jing Wan'er had an indescribable feeling in her heart, she was born in the palace, and it was difficult to say that a few of the people in the palace who collected the corpses in person died because of conclusive evidence. I'm afraid that most of them died worse than unjustly killed.

But she was used to seeing this, the weak eat the strong, in this world where the strong are respected, your weakness is already the original sin.

If there is any change in her thinking, it is from meeting Pei Tan.

Shen Xingwen said: "Let's think about it from another angle, as the former imperial concubine, Concubine Wang De has lived peacefully in the palace for so many years, and she died here just after arriving at Qinglong Temple, which is already inconceivable. ”

Jing Wan'er couldn't help but move her lips slowly: "All cases are a knot, find the knot, and untie it lightly." ”

The princess Wang De she met with Pei Tan was smart and a little cunning, and she didn't even give Pei Tan a chance to seize it. A woman like Concubine Wang De, who can kill her.

But she died quieter than anyone else.

This made Jing Wan'er still unable to accept it.

"In this case, the two people who have died, are not simple." Pei Tan rolled up his sleeves, stood in front of the window and said, "Huigen is a monk with extremely high martial arts, and Concubine Wang De is the only concubine of His Majesty Ruizong, it is not easy to kill these two people." ”

Pei Tan said it more vaguely, but Jing Wan'er understood very well that they dealt with a Xuantai, Pei Tan was seriously injured, and when the queen of heaven killed so many Li royal families, her own biological children died so much, but Concubine Wang De was also alive and well.

Even if King Changle killed these two people in a frenzy, wouldn't it mean that King Changle was even more powerful than these two people combined.

But if Li Xiuqi is really such a character, he will still leave so many obvious clues, waiting for Dali Temple to find out about him.

This is fundamentally paradoxical.

"Unless it was a ghost who killed Monk Huigen, and it was a god who killed Concubine Wang De, anyway, this is a Buddhist temple, and anything can happen." Shen Xingwen lowered his head and smiled.

There is no need to solve the case, everything is pushed to the gods and Buddhas, and when Pei Tan returns to Chang'an, he will use this reason to report to Zhongzong.

The candle flame in the room shook and almost went out.

Pei Tan turned around and looked at the lamp oil there.

Jing Wan'er moved her mouth, and when she saw his gaze, she suddenly understood.

If you are standing in turbulent water, it is only possible to find the direction of the current if you follow the direction of the water.

You can guess that Zhang San is the murderer today, or you can change your mind tomorrow and think that Li San is a murderer, and anyone may suspect anyone before the case is decided.

Pei Tan said: "Ideas will change, but there is only one thing that will not change." ”

Jing Wan'er answered: "It's every piece of evidence we've found so far." "The evidence is always there, reasoning, is based on evidence to infer the facts of the case, not by subjective will, so they will be more and more wrong.

It was already dark outside, Shen Xingwen yawned and walked out of Pei Tan's room, a smile appeared on his lips.

Early in the morning, the ten Dali Temple officials in the front yard finally began to assemble, and the two monks helped King Changle carry the box to the front of the carriage.

Pei Tan glanced at it: "What is in the prince's box." ”

Li Xiuqi said: "Some sundries of this king. ”

The two of them carried it to the back of the carriage and tied the box, Pei Tan slowly bowed: "The temple has prepared a carriage for the prince, can the ministers escort behind the prince?" ”

There are so many people, two carriages, one is loaded with the King of Changle salute, and the other can only be ridden by Li Xiuqi himself.

Li Xiuqi glanced at it: "Okay." ”

Pei Tan then divided five officials to escort Li Xiuqi's carriage, and the rest of the people followed the carriage with their luggage.

Shen Xingwen said: "My subordinates have their own horses, so adults don't have to worry about me." ”

There was only one woman in the company, Jing Wan'er, and she looked at Pei Tan until he said: "You are a woman, it is inconvenient to go in and out of the city gate, so let's get in the carriage and sit." ”

Jing Wan'er smiled slightly: "Thank you for your compassion." ”

Jing Wan'er sheltered in the carriage, and at this time a little monk came out of the temple, "The abbot is sick, let the little monk say to the prince and the temple,

He wasn't far away. ”

Pei Tan said: "Master Xuanlian is too polite. ”

The little monk stood at the gate of the temple, and Pei Tan turned around: "Let's go, the gate of Chang'an should be opened in half an hour." ”

Pei Tan handed a letter to the little monk: "Please forward this letter to Master Xuanlian on behalf of Pei, and bid farewell to the master on my behalf." ”

The little monk took the letter that was sealed by fire paint, glanced at it, and said with a smile: "The little monk understands. ”

Pei Tan turned around and led the people of Dali Temple to leave.

This morning dew was faint, and the little monk saw that the two carts of people and horses were really far away, so he turned around and entered the temple and closed the temple gate.

The keeper of the Chang'an city gate, in the morning, "Open the city gate!" "When the curfew ended, the businessmen who were waiting to enter Chang'an had already lined up in a long line.

"General Pei, what do you think it is?" A guard pointed to the slowly approaching car on the official road.

It stands out because it's a car with a white horse.

The curtain of the car was opened, and Li Xiuqi looked at the city guards.

The faces of the guards changed, the people in the car were dressed in white clothes and white socks, and their eyebrows were sparse, and the guards at the Chang'an City Gate were different from other places, because they were used to seeing powerful people.

The general who took the lead immediately knelt down: "Let the prince go." ”

Li Xiuqi lowered the curtain, and five officials escorted him through the Chang'an City Gate together.

A few steps behind him was Pei Tan's vehicle.

After Li Xiuqi walked a few steps, he stopped the carriage. His palace and Dali Temple are not in the same direction, and it is time to part ways at this moment.

Pei Tan rode on the horse and slowly came to the city gate, and the general who guarded the city couldn't help but look at Pei Tan after seeing it.

"Who's in the carriage?" A moment later, the general asked Pei Tan.

It's really not that the fame of Dali Temple and Pei Tan is not loud enough, but Chang'an is Chang'an after all, and it's okay to go out if you want to, but it's not so easy to get in if you want to come in.

And Dali Siqing is actually riding a horse, who is sitting in the carriage?

"Turn on the carriage." The general's eyes sank.

Pei Tan's reputation is really bad, it's good that he doesn't show up, and who doesn't want to trouble him when he appears.

Pei Tan said: "There is no one in the carriage. ”

The general swept coldly: "It's not up to you to decide, you can only enter the city after opening the inventory." ”

At this time, the carriage of King Changle, who was waiting in front, suddenly turned its head slowly, and the person who was waiting opened the curtain in front of Li Xiuqi.

Pei Tan looked at the general and did not speak.

Seeing that the guards of the city and the two parties entering the city were faintly facing each other, some people stopped to see the excitement at the city gate.

"Can't open it?" A city guard stared at Pei Tan.

At this time, the general said: "Don't talk nonsense, open the carriage and check." ”

These city guards were used to this kind of scene, so they ignored Pei Tan at the moment, went up and grabbed the carriage, and opened the door above.

I saw that the carriage was empty, and there was really no one there, only the box in the corner.

A glimmer of light flashed in the general's eyes.

Li Xiuqi's hand in his sleeve slowly squeezed up.

It was Pei Tan who let Jing Wan'er sit in this carriage.

What about Jing Wan'er?

"What's in the box, open it." The general's gaze fell on the box.
