This matter was reported to His Majesty, and His Majesty was naturally furious, and after the reprimand, Jiang Zhongze and the two officials of the Criminal Department were detained in the palace, ready to be questioned in person.

There were four people when he entered the palace, but he was the only one who left the palace. Di Fangxing touched his chin, thinking of this stubble, the beard at the corner of his mouth couldn't help but curl, and after calming down his inner joy, he didn't go back to Dali Temple or to the Ministry of Officials, but went straight to Pei's mansion.

When he arrived, Pei Xingting was talking to the two Pei disciples in the hall, as if the two had some conflict.

"Pei Xiangye." Di Fangxing smiled and raised his hand to salute, "It's unfortunate that the lower official came." "Just in time for the elders to reprimand the juniors.

"It's just a trifle." Pei Xingting glanced at the two people, and smiled at Di Fangxing, "Master Di seems to be in a good mood. ”

"I'm here to thank Xiangye." After Di Fangxing gave a salute, he sat down under Pei Xingting's gesture and said, "It's good that Xiangye reminded me that I asked the lower officials to go this way, otherwise it would almost cause a big disaster." ”

"So ......" Pei Xingting picked up the teacup and took a sip and put it in his hand, "It's just a coincidence, the old man's people happened to see the people from the Criminal Department enter the gate of the Ministry of Officials, so they specially said to Master Zhidi." By the way, how is Li Xiuyuan? Can the injury be severe? ”

"I'm about to talk to Xiangye!" Di Fangxing said, his eyes fell on Pei Xingting, paying attention to Pei Xingting's reaction, "Li Xiuyuan...... He's dead. ”

"Dead?" Shocked, Pei Xingting couldn't help but stand up and looked at him in disbelief, "You said Li Xiuyuan is dead?" ”

The reaction is so big, it doesn't seem like a fake. Di Fangxing's heart was a little relieved: when he saw Li Xiuyuan die, he didn't suspect Pei Xingting who led him over, and now everyone is suspicious, although the possibility that the Zhang family's affairs are related to Pei Xingting is very small, but he still has to give it a try.

The result of the temptation made him breathe a sigh of relief, Pei Xingting should not have been involved.

"Yes, Li Xiuyuan is dead." Di Fangxing couldn't help but gasp when he thought of the scene he saw earlier, "When we went in, Li Xiuyuan sat there motionless and closed his eyes to recuperate, and the food box was put aside without moving, originally thinking that it was nothing. As a result, Lin Liyang, a reckless man, stepped forward and pushed him, but fortunately, this time his recklessness was considered to have made a meritorious service, and this push, the head fell like a mud pinch, which made us startled. The body had not yet been examined, but the blood had not gushed out, and it looked like it had been dead for some time. ”

Although it was only a few sentences, and Di Fangxing didn't describe it too much, the scene was really too graphic, which made several people present gasp in unison.

Di Fangxing paid attention to everyone's reactions as he spoke, and there was a strange sense of satisfaction in his heart when he saw everyone's surprised appearance in the same clothes. This kind of thing should be frightening to anyone, but it's not because he can't see it.

"Speaking of which, I was going to ask Mr. Pei a thing or two about this matter." After a pause, he looked at Pei Zongzhi, who was sitting on the side, met his gaze, and asked, "How can this Li Xiuyuan's ability not to discourage the lower officials, if the jailer guarding the door did not lie, what kind of person do you think can kill him quietly?" ”

Pei Zongzhi only spoke after a little silence when he heard this: "According to what you say, then this person must be a master, understand yin and yang arts, and be resourceful, and two of the three things are far better than Li Xiuyuan." ”

"And it's only been a few hours since Li Xiuyuan was imprisoned, and if this person can be killed in such a short time, he will definitely not go far, and he may even hide among the group of officials in the ministry." Di Fangxing said, and said a cruel word, "This entire official department can't be picked up in Di's opinion!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the room fell silent.

Seeing that Pei Xingting and Pei Zongzhi didn't speak, it was really embarrassing! Pei Xianzhi thought for a while and spoke: "What Master Di said is reasonable. ”

As soon as he opened his mouth, Pei Xingting said: "In this case, there are too many people who will check." ”

"Check more! Even Jiang Zhongze and those two members of the Criminal Department were detained in the palace by His Majesty, do these people have to be let go? Di Fangxing said, "I don't expect the household department to find me many useful things, if I don't arrest these people and torture them, what else can I do?" There's nowhere to start! ”

"Actually, there is another possibility." Pei Xingting said, "Except for the master like Zong Zhi said, Li Xiuyuan is silent, maybe because he sees an acquaintance." There are not a few people who Li Xiuyuan is familiar with, but he can't be that kind of little jailer in the entire ministry, all the clerical officials know him, there are always people with names and surnames, so you might as well start with acquaintances. ”

How could he not know that Pei Xingting was mentioning him? Di Fangxing looked a little excited when he heard this, and hurriedly got up and solemnly saluted him, saying: "Xiang Ye's words, let Xia Guan Mao suddenly open up, thank you Xiang Ye for mentioning something!" ”

Pei Xingting just smiled: "Don't thank me, you're just angry, you didn't think of it for a while, you can figure this out sooner or later." ”

Di Fangxing said again, "Thank you Xiangye for mentioning it."

After a few words of greeting, Di Fangxing got up to say goodbye, Pei Xingting did not leave him, and after he left, he picked up the already cold tea cup on the side and took a sip, sighing: "This day is really full of twists and turns, fortunately, Your Majesty is still young, if the first emperor is still afraid, he will be surprised by this." ”

As soon as the sky was bright, the Great Heavenly Master was arrested, Di Fangxing and Jiang Zhongze interrogated and broke up unhappily, but in the afternoon, the Great Heavenly Master was killed in the prison of the Ministry of Officials, it was really unexpected, such a Great Heavenly Master actually died in such a strange death so silently? If it weren't for Di Fangxing's own words, he would have thought that someone was alarmist.

With some emotion, he looked at Pei Zongzhi: Fortunately, Zongzhi reminded him, so that they could find out in time that there was such a mistake in the ministry.

"What's going on with this Jiang Zhongze?" Pei Xingting couldn't help frowning when he thought of such a thing happening to the ministry, "Su Ri saw that he did things without leakage, and he had never had any mistakes, but there was such a big problem today." ”

Pei Xianzhi said: "What simple character can kill Li Xiuyuan?" In the final analysis, Jiang Zhongze's skills are just not as good as others. Now that such a thing has happened, Your Majesty doesn't know what to punish with this punishment? I'm afraid that Shangshu can't sit still! After all, he was unlucky! ”

"He won't die, but Li Xiuyuan is already dead." Pei Zongzhi said coldly on the side, "My head has fallen off!" ”

Pei Xianzhi slapped the table and stood up: "What are you talking about!" "Jiang Zhongze is just dereliction of duty, as for such ridicule?

"Okay, stop arguing." Pei Xingting put down the cold teacup and looked at them, "This matter is very troublesome, it has nothing to do with you, don't mix it casually." ”

Pei Xianzhi reluctantly responded.

Pei Xingting nodded slightly when he heard this, but his eyes fell on Pei Zongzhi who was opposite him: In fact, he said this sentence to this person.

This one looked left and right, and did not respond at all.
