Chapter 19: His Royal Highness the King of Changle

At this moment, there was no one in the building, and Jing Wan'er suddenly knelt down: "Please be fulfilled." ”

Pei Tan was even more penetrating and clear than she imagined, and he wrapped Zichan'er with kindness, so that Zichan'er had to take her in. But the difference is that Jing Wan'er never thinks that she has saved someone's life, so she has much kindness to Zichan'er, on the contrary, she can let Zichan'er be her eyes in Chang'an City and deliver news for her.

But...... She can't ruin someone's life. Especially when she saw Zichan'er standing with her husband just now, Jing Wan'er realized what her appearance had brought to the couple who had lived peacefully in Chang'an City for many years.

Pei Tan's voice slowly sounded above: "You don't have to kneel me." ”

Jing Wan'er's heart tightened, she was a palace maid, even though she had escaped from the palace, the death penalty had already been placed on top of her head.

After a long time, she took a slow breath: "After this incident, Wan'er is at the disposal of adults. In fact, the fugitive slaves in the palace ...... After last night, Wan'er is already a capital crime, but this matter is about the face of the palace, if Wan'er dies alone, this matter can be over, and Wan'er is willing to die. ”

From beginning to end, Jing Wan'er's voice was quiet and her attitude was obedient, but Pei Tan gradually narrowed her eyes.

Fugitive slaves are naturally related to the face of the palace, especially the sum of the palace maids who escaped within five years, once exposed to the open air, not only the palace will be shaken, but I am afraid that Chang'an and the world will be a laughing stock.

This is what Jing Wan'er wants to say, she escaped alone, and it can still be made up, if the escape of all the palace maids within five years is implicated, it will not only be these palace maids hiding in Chang'an City who will die.

I still remember the witch confusion of that year, how many people were implicated, and there were piles of corpses and bones in the palace.

If you think about it carefully, you will know that the core of this matter will only be more terrifying than the witch Gu.

Pei Tan didn't say anything for a long time, Jing Wan'er is indeed smart, smart enough to find a weakness to "threaten" him in this situation.

Jing Wan'er's palms were sweaty, and her whole body even began to tremble slightly.

"I said, you don't have to kneel me." Pei Tan's voice was still faint, "Stay here, and I'll talk about it later." ”

Unexpectedly, Pei Tan would pass Jing Wan'er's request in such an understated way, Jing Wan'er looked stunned, and even couldn't deal with it at all.

But she finally determined one thing, that is, at least for now, Pei Tan would not say anything about the palace maid's escape from the palace.

Jing Wan'er, who couldn't tell whether it was disappointment or what, could only obey what Pei Tan said, and got up slowly, knowing in her heart that it was basically impossible for her to be eager to get Pei Tan's answer now.

Pei Tan is the Dali Siqing of Chang'an, and it is impossible for him to violate his duties so easily.

"Pei County."

Pei Xian, who heard the order, immediately appeared at the side door, "Childe." ”

"Let's go."

Zichan'er and her husband also immediately appeared from the side door, and watched Pei Tan and the master and servant walk to the door with some trepidation and surprise, and just opened the door and walked out.

Only the girl who stood silently in the hotel lobby with a sad expression.

Back in Dali Temple, except for Pei Tan and Pei County, everything is still solemn as usual. No one knew about the episode of a mysterious girl who came here early in the morning and now quietly left.

"Childe, why did you save that palace maid in one more move?" This is really not like a cautious son.

Pei Tan's expression was not obvious: "If someone in the palace wants to kill Jing Wan'er, then nine out of ten it is related to Zong Huo." "So Jing Wan'er can't die.

Pei Xian still said: "Then she is dead, wouldn't it be more able to confirm the conspiracy of this matter?" ”

Jing Wan'er is dead or alive, and it has no impact on the judgment of this matter at all.

Pei Tan glanced at his attendant: "The corpse that died for Zong Huo is also a descendant of the Jing family." ”

Therefore, only Jing Wan'er can understand the meaning of the human skin tattoo for the first time.

But Pei Xian suddenly shook slightly, because he understood the meaning of Pei's conversation,...... There is already a Jing family who has died for this, enough is enough......

Pei Tan slowly paced to the window at this time, "Maybe this matter will become an opportunity for us to solve this case of substitution." ”

Pei Xian turned around silently: "The subordinates are just worried that they will find out about the son." If you can't find a palace maid in the palace, you will inevitably think of the people who went in and out of the palace last night. ”

Even if Pei Tan holds the Zhongzong token, he will still have a registration, and as long as he checks it, he will definitely not be able to avoid it.

Pei Tan's eyes were gloomy: "Don't worry, they can't find it." ”

The mystery of this sentence was revealed from the palace.

After searching for a night, the palace maids who were not found by the internal guards and Qianniuwei were dispatched, and they could only report to Cui Shanggong.

Cui Shanggong was shocked: "Impossible! How could I not find it!? ”

She stared at the commander of the guard.

The commander of the internal guard also looked cold, last night he personally led people to search the entire forbidden palace, and did not find the palace maid with the same figure as reported by Cui Shanggong.

"Could it be that Cui Shanggong doubts the ability of our internal guards?" Joke, the entire Daming Palace, is a fly that escapes, and it is impossible to escape from their palms.

No matter how bold Cui Shanggong was, she didn't dare to turn her face with the internal guard, she swallowed her words hatefully, how could this be possible? Could it be that the slut really gave birth to wings!?

At this time, the commander of the internal guard said coldly: "Cui Shang Palace, there is a palace maid who has fled from the place under your jurisdiction, and now her whereabouts are unknown, how are you going to explain to Your Majesty?" ”

After searching all night, if the palace maid finds it, then all the blame will naturally be pushed on the head of the palace maid. But now, no one has been found.

Cui Shanggong felt that his limbs were cold, it was impossible, things were completely out of her control, just yesterday when she asked the internal guard to arrest someone, she was still sneering, feeling that the slut finally took the initiative to show the fox's tail, who would have thought that she would give her a head-on blow as soon as it was dawn.

She didn't want to admit it, but she had to say: "Unless she is no longer in the palace, how can she not find it?" Could it be that she has an accomplice? ”

Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain such an unbelievable thing, no matter how smart Jing Wan'er was, it would be impossible for a person to escape from the palace.

The commander of the internal guard turned around coldly and said, "Let people check immediately, whether anyone left the palace with a token last night." ”

Vehicles entering and leaving the palace gate must be routinely inspected, and no matter how big Jing Wan'er's ability is, it is impossible to be invisible. Unless it's a car that hasn't been inspected by the palace guards.

So that's it...... A cold light flashed in the eyes of the commander of the internal guard.

The commander of the internal guard and the people of the Qianniu Guard Camp personally went to the palace gate to check the entry and exit records, and naturally no one dared to hide it, so they immediately took out the registration book.

There are a total of eleven doors in the palace, and those who may enter and exit the palace gate in the middle of the night either have an imperial edict or a title above the second grade, so a circle of checks down, only Wenchang Gate, Danfeng Gate, Guangji Gate three doors have people in and out.

The commander of the internal guard flipped through the booklet, last night, Shen Jieyu in the palace summoned several of her relatives to enter the palace to talk, because Shen Jieyu had just become pregnant, so Zhongzong specially approved Shen Jieyu to call her family to accompany her at any time, Shen Jieyu's relatives were a total of three people, and they went to Guangji Gate.

The Commander of the Internal Guard just stared at it for a moment, then threw the booklet back to his men.

Then he opened the entry and exit books of Wenchang Gate.

It is written, Dali Siqing, Pei Tan, was ordered by the emperor to enter the palace, and left after a while.

The commander of the internal guard stared at the words "leaving after the time" for a long time, usually the courtiers stay in the palace overnight, which is extremely rare, the Daming Palace is heavily guarded, and other idlers can stay in the palace for no reason.

He asked the guards brought by Wenchangmen: "Has Dali Siqing been discussing with His Majesty all night?" ”

The guard bowed his head and replied: "No, last night Dali Siqing traveled to Taiye Pool alone at night, and Gonggong Cai, who was next to His Majesty, testified about this matter." ”

The head of the internal guard looked cold: "Night tour of the Taiye Pool? ”

The guard's voice lowered: "It is said that ...... It was approved by His Majesty. ”

Perhaps the tour of the Taiye Pool itself is not suspicious, but among the reports received by the commander of the internal guards, he has searched the area around the Taiye Pool, and mentioned the painting boat that Pei Tan was riding.

In that kind of painting boat, you have to hide a person...... It's too easy.

The eyes of the internal guard commander became colder and colder.

At that moment, he flipped through the last register.

King of Changle.

The three words came into view, and the eyes of the internal guard commander suddenly narrowed.

Danfeng Gate is one of the main gates of Daming Palace, and those who can walk through this gate are naturally emperors. King of Changle. He is the eldest son of Li Yuanying, the former king of Teng.

Teng King Li Yuanying, that is the legend of the Tang Dynasty.

A poem "Preface to the Pavilion of King Teng" is recited by every Tang Dynasty citizen.

And as the son of King Teng, King Changle ...... Like his father, he is a literary and elegant character.

The so-called literary style...... It's free.

The commander of the internal guard suddenly closed the booklet in his hand, and he thought about the events of last night and night, and figured out the cause and effect.

Then he immediately opened Jing Wan'er's portrait.

Cui Shanggong had already prepared, and he had already assigned Jing Wan'er's portrait to the internal security department of each arrest person as soon as possible.

I saw the woman in the painting, which shows that her eyebrows and eyes are beautiful.

The internal guard commander pondered for a moment in his heart, "King Changle yesterday, where was he admiring the moon?" ”

The guard guarding the Danfeng Gate shook his head: "King Changle has always been free in the palace, and we don't dare to interrogate." ”

That's the son of King Teng, the royal family and nobles, where is King Changle going, why do you need to report to them.

The commander of the internal guard could only close the portrait after a long time, and after struggling for a moment, he said in a deep voice: "No one is allowed to mention the matter of the loss of the palace maid of the miscellaneous room from now on. ”

——

In Dali Temple, Pei County was completely unclear: "Why does Gongzi think he won't find it?" ”

Pei Tan stood in front of the window, looking at the green leaves, but his thoughts were already drifting away: "Last night was fifteen, and King Changle would also enter the palace." ”

Hearing the name of King Changle, Pei County was suddenly stunned.

If there is any one else who is an outlier in the current tense situation in the Tang Dynasty, it must be ...... Changle Wang, Li Xiuqi.

Pei Tan had a light eyebrow: "King Changle has always felt that the moonlight in the palace is better than the long street, so every fifteenth, he will enter the palace to admire the moon." If the internal guard wants to find out who entered and exited the palace gate last night, it will inevitably find King Changle. ”

Pei Xian was obviously still a little dazed: "Even if you find King Changle, so what?" ”

On the contrary, King Changle's status is noble, and those internal guards may not dare to doubt it, and they will only focus their suspicious eyes on Pei Tan when the time comes.

Pei Tan smiled faintly: "No one in Chang'an knows that the King of Changle is amorous, and there are countless beautiful female slaves in the house. In this case, if there is no palace maid with a good appearance in the palace, who will dare to investigate it deeply. “
