Chapter 64: Return to Dali Temple
There are more than 100,000 candidates in Chang'an this year, and some of them may be talented, but they may not all be on the current yellow list, and in the end, what can represent their existence may be these articles and sentences.
Now the water stains on the desktop are gradually receding, and when they are completely dry, these words will completely dissipate.
Once a man named Liu Yong, all traces of the appearance in the world disappeared like the yellow sand in Saibei.
It's really desolate, Jing Wan'er is stunned.
"Liu Yong can say that he committed suicide, or he can say that he is not." At this time, Pei Tan suddenly sounded faintly.
Jing Wan'er looked over in surprise.
Pei Tan said: "The chair was dragged on the ground with the same traces, and the person who had sat at the table in the corner of the first floor also came to the third floor and sat opposite Liu Yong. ”
Jing Wan'er looked at the opposite side that was empty at the moment.
Pei Tan said again: "This person is not here to drink with Liu Yong, and he is not even Liu Yong's friend. ”
If it was a friend, the same drink as Liu Yong would definitely fall on the opposite side, but the opposite side was almost clean, clean and unusual.
Jing Wan'er thought that a person is not a friend, and even so calm that he does not leave a trace, who would cut the grass and erase all the sense of existence so much?
Murderer.
She was shocked, and finally understood why Pei Tan said that Liu Yong could say that he committed suicide, or that he could not say that he was not.
Because it seems that Liu Yong jumped off the scene by himself, but the person opposite, is he just watching?
Those who watch and kill but do not save are even more killed.
Even... Jing Wan'er suddenly thought that the other party was not only not saving him when he saw death, but even the culprit who pushed Liu Yong's death.
"When Liu Yong died, it was two hours after the list was released, and the time was too coincidental. During this time, the hearts of all the candidates who failed to make the list were extremely uneasy. "Dali Temple is a case, and behind it is the hearts of the people.
Jing Wan'er seemed to understand what Pei Tan meant, and the hearts of the people at this time had the most opportunity to take advantage of.
"If the other party has taken the opportunity to provoke and deliberately stimulate Liu Yong..."
Liu Yong chose to end his life in despair.
Jing Wan'er has seen many palace maids choose to end their lives in the palace every year, and many people who commit suicide are almost tortured at the moment of suicide.
This torture is not physical, it is the straw that crushes the spirit.
"But Zichan'er said that no one else has come up." Jing Wan'er hesitated, this is also where she has never been able to figure out where she can clear the suspicion for Zichan'er and his wife.
Pei Tan's eyebrows furrowed, and he suddenly said: "It's not that no one came up, it's someone who came up and won't attract attention." ”
Jing Wan'er's eyes lit up, and she almost blurted out, "Man! ”
Restaurant guys.
In a restaurant, like an invisible person, a person who drinks and has fun, will pay more attention to his buddy. To them, the guy is just a tea and water hander.
They had forgotten about this, and Jing Wan'er hoped to go back to Dali Temple now.
The restaurant has been sealed, but the guy of the day, as long as he goes back and asks Zichan'er now, he can know immediately.
Pei Tan was not as excited as her, and after being silent for a long time, he said, "Even if you ask, it's useless, they have now been convicted as suspects, and in the law, suspects have no ability to testify." ”
Besides, saying that they are buddies now will only make people think that they are biting each other, and they will not believe it at all.
Jing Wan'er's just ignited hope was shattered again.
"Your Excellency..."
"Besides," Pei Tan looked at the girl after being silent, "Now Dali Temple, it's no longer up to me to decide." ”
That's the real helplessness.
Jing Wan'er couldn't help biting her lip, now Dali Siqing has to come to the scene secretly, and how can I hope that Zichan'er and Wenlang can be
Acquittal.
"It's us, we should really go back to Dali Temple sooner now." Pei Tan said unhurriedly.
There are no socks on his feet, which does not affect Pei Gongzi's Sven in the slightest.
They have been out for a long time, and they are at risk of being discovered at any time.
Jing Wan'er secretly took a breath.
Before leaving, Pei Tan pulled the chair and quietly restored the table. The two walked downstairs barefoot and put on their dirty socks at the door.
The two of them walked to the haystack at the base of the wall, and found that the problem of turning out was greater than turning in.
They can climb up the haystack and climb over the wall to get out. Ignore the look of the haystack that has been crushed by the weight of the two of them.
The height is no longer enough.
Pei Tan slowly lowered his eyes, and in the dark, said to Jing Wan'er, "You stepped on my shoulder." ”
Jing Wan'er looked surprised.
Pei Tan didn't hesitate anymore, one leg bent on the ground, and the whole person half-knelt down.
Jing Wan'er bumped into her heart.
"Come on." Pei Tan said.
There was no point in wasting time on this matter, Jing Wan'er walked up to him and slowly raised her foot and stepped on Pei Tan.
Pei Tan is the kind of man who is thin and does not show his bones, with a thin waist, some of whom look like the beauties of the Wei and Jin dynasties in the painting, even if the Tang Dynasty is open, the physical contact between men and women, especially the opportunity for Jing Wan'er to be in contact with the three major members of the dynasty, is almost impossible.
And when she stepped on Pei Tan's body, she found that he didn't move at all, and he held her very steadily.
Jing Wan'er was no longer suspicious, quickly gathered her thoughts, stepped on Pei Tan's shoulder, and quickly climbed the wall.
"Your Excellency." She stood on the wall and turned to beckon to Pei Tan.
Pei Tan slowly looked at the haystack beside him, first walked up, and then looked at the wall above his head that was still far away, he first climbed it with his hand, and then jumped hard, stepping on it with some difficulty with one foot.
Jing Wan'er didn't want to hold Pei Tan's hand and helped him climb up.
The two of them looked at each other on the wall, and the residual warmth of the fingers that had just touched the body was still on each other. The two lowered their heads at the same time, and looked at the bottom of the wall, and there were still two pairs of shoes for the two of them.
The two went down from the wall one after another, and left to return to Dali Temple when no one was paying attention on the street. The two of them may only have socks stained with yard plaster to represent what happened to them, but no one would dare to take off Dali Siqing's shoes and check his socks.
And Jing Wan'er, what came out with her today was Lord Siqing's deity, did she still have to worry that Pei Tan would denounce her?
Hehe, thinking about it like this, it's very comfortable.
On Chang'an Street, the people are still living their lives.
The top three names seem to be a grand event in Chang'an, and the world celebrates together, but the real people are numb to the names on the list.
On the noisy East Street, a sloppy man appeared, with thinning hair and a yellow face and thin muscles. It's like I haven't eaten in ten years.
His hungry green eyes saw the steaming buns on the side of the road, and he immediately convulsed, and immediately rushed over, grabbed a bun and stuffed it into his mouth.
The owner of the steamed bun shop reacted and exclaimed, "You thief! Stop it! ”
The sloppy man didn't care about it, he swallowed the bun desperately, and his face was choked red and he didn't care.
The owner of the steamed bun shop immediately shouted loudly, and several big men quickly rushed out of the store and firmly restrained the man who stole the steamed bun.
The boss rolled up his sleeves and looked at the man with a sneer, "In broad daylight, if you dare to eat the overlord's meal, I will pull you to see the official now!" ”
The man immediately raised his eyes and stared at the boss, "Don't, don't see the official, I don't mean to!" ”
The boss was annoyed, pointed at the man and said, "You have eaten it all, I have never seen such a brazen thief as you!" ”
The thief was really not brazen, I saw him show his face in a panic, and there was a little bit of grace in the dirt.
"I, I saw a typo on the sign at your store, if you don't pull me to the official, I'll change the sign for you." The man said.
The boss simply thinks it's the best joke I've heard today, a thief steals steamed buns, and if he doesn't repent, he even says that there is a typo on his signboard?!
The boss was furious: "Tie up this thief and take him to the official immediately!" ”
"The thief" seemed to be really panicked, and immediately said: "The sign of your shop hints at rebellion with words, if you really pull me to see the official, I will definitely denounce you!" ”
The boss's face changed in anger, and at this point he believed that he had caught a madman, and scolded angrily: "You thief is so credible, where does my signboard hint at rebellion, believe it or not, I'll cut your tongue out now?" ”
The boss was intimidated, but the "thief" suddenly sank his face and said with a sneer: "You have openly hung the word Zhou on your plaque, haven't you forgotten whose country name it is now?" “
