Chapter 267: Li Er is no longer calm

On this day, Han Min and Qin Zulai drank tea in the teahouse.

Han Min couldn't help but ask, "Qin County Order, don't you think that these days are a little too calm?"

Qin Zulai glanced at Han Min, "Lord Han, be calm, isn't it good?"

"What? Do you still want a case to happen? Have you forgotten what you were forced to do by those cases before?"

Han Min sneered, "Qin County Order, of course the lower officials are not expecting a case to happen. ”

"It's just that Yuwen Chengdu and Dawn suddenly stopped moving, and the lower officials were a little unaccustomed. ”

Qin Zulai took a sip of tea and said lightly: "Haven't you heard that sentence? Before the storm comes, there will be a period of tranquility. ”

Hearing this, Han Min was shocked, and hurriedly looked at Qin Zulai, "What does Qin County's order mean...... Something big is going to happen in the future?"

"Now that they have determined that Emperor Yu Dinghai Mirror is true, then they will only do two things next. ”

"What two things?"

"Or, there is still a lack of other Qin King Eight Mirrors, continue to look for Qin King Eight Mirrors, but the Qin King Eight Mirrors may not all be in Chang'an City, so they may be looking for other places, so we will have temporary peace. ”

Qin Zulai put down the teacup and continued: "Either that, they have already found the Eight Mirrors of King Qin, and the heirloom jade seal of He's Bi is also in their hands. ”

"Therefore, they have to crack the shocking secret left by Qin Shi Huang. ”

"But this needs time, and it is not time yet, so they are afraid of being discovered, so they can only choose to hibernate. ”

Han Min couldn't help but look at Qin Zulai and asked, "What do you think they will do now?"

Qin Zulai rolled his eyes, "I really don't know this, I am not as capable as you, and I was arranged to be a ghost next to me...... It almost cost me a lot. ”

Han Ming's face couldn't help but turn red, coughed, and said, "That's all in the past, Qin County Order, don't laugh at the lower officials, the lower officials are also victims." ”

Qin Zulai's eyes narrowed, he ignored Han Min,

Instead, he suddenly said meaningfully: "Your matter has given me someone Qin a wake-up call." ”

"They can arrange for me to be there, then...... Why can't I treat others the way they do?"

"If we have an internal response with them, we will not be ignorant of their whereabouts in the future, and we will not be too passive. ”

He touched his chin and muttered to himself, "But if you want to install the inner ghost, it's not easy...... How can we keep Yuwen Chengdu from doubting them?"

Qin Zulai, he began to think seriously about the feasibility of this matter.

He doesn't know much about Dawn, and it's really not easy to insert ghosts inside.

But if he succeeds, it will definitely be of great help to him.

Han Min was shocked when he saw Qin Zulai thinking about something so seriously for the first time, and he felt that Dawn might be about to start to be unlucky.

"Your Excellency, Lord Jing Zhaoyi. ”

And at this moment, a voice suddenly interrupted Qin Zulai's thoughts.

Qin Zu came to find the sound and left, and saw a guard wearing the clothes of the palace guard, running in front of them.

The guard hurriedly said: "Your Majesty has an order, please enter the palace immediately to face the saint." ”

Qin Zulai and Han Min glanced at each other.

Li Er, how could he let them enter the palace so suddenly for no reason?

Is that what happened?

Qin Zulai put down the copper coin to settle the bill, and walked out with the guards.

On the way, he asked, "Can this official ask, what happened?"

This janissary was fortunate enough to participate in several cases of Qin Zulai, and he admired Qin Zulai very much.

So at this time, when he heard Qin Zulai's words, he thought about it, and then he looked around.

Only then did he lower his voice and whispered: "Your Majesty found a notice letter in Daming Palace this morning. ”

"Advance letter???," Qin Zulai asked.

The guard looked at Qin Zulai and said, "The prophetic letter of the thief saint, he said...... On the night of the full moon, the palace is in the palace, and at the hour of the hour, the Tang Dynasty jade seal is stolen!"

Thief of the Tang Dynasty Jade Seal???

Hearing this, Qin Zulai's eyes narrowed slightly.

After glancing at Han Min, he saw the shock in the other party's eyes.

A group of three people sped up their pace like this.

When Qin Zulai and Han Min arrived at Daming Palace, they saw that there were already some people in the palace at this time.

Prime Minister Fang Xuanling, the governor of the capital Sun Wuji, and Dali Temple Shaoqing Li Xiaoyao.

Liu Hongji, the commander of the Praetorian Guard, and Sun Chong, the chief of the Criminal Department.

In front of Changsun Chong, there was still a man standing thirty-five or sixteen years old, but his appearance was a little unfamiliar, and Qin Zulai didn't know him.

At this time, these people were all standing in the hall, and when they saw Qin Zu coming, Eldest Sun Chong and Eldest Sun Wuji, they all nodded and signaled, and Fang Xuanling also smiled.

Liu Hongji had a resolute face and an unchanged expression, while another stranger also smiled at Qin Zulai and released kindness.

Qin Zulai responded one by one, and then walked to the front of the hall with Han Min and bowed to Li Er, "I've seen Your Majesty!"

At this time, Li Er's face was very ugly.

Seeing Qin Zulai arrive, he regained some of his smile slightly.

He nodded and said, "Ancestor Qin, you're here, that person is all together." ”

Li Er didn't have any greetings today, and went straight to the point: "I called you over today, because this morning, after I came to Daming Palace, I found this on the bookcase. ”

As he spoke, he ordered the eunuch to hand over the advance letter on the table to everyone.

When Qin Zu came, he saw the warning letter from the guards on the road.

There are only four short sentences on the teaser letter.

[On the night of the full moon, the palace is in the palace, and at the time of the hour, the Tang Dynasty jade seal is stolen!]

Other than that, there is no inscription, but a pattern is drawn in the lower right corner.

Qin Zu took a look, it was three willow branches.

"It's really a prophetic letter from the thief!!" Han Min couldn't help but exclaim in surprise when he saw it.

Qin Zu looked at Han Min and asked, "What thief saint?"

He has only heard of the saints of books, poems, and paintings.

Han Min looked at Qin Zulai and said, "Qin County Order, this is a very well-known thief among the people, famous for never missing, never being caught, and no one has ever seen him. ”

After each of his thefts, he would draw three willow branches on the scene as proof of his theft. ”

Moreover, he never robbed ordinary people, only went to the wealthy nobles to steal, and every time he stole money, he basically gave it to the poor people. ”

So he has a certain reputation among the people, and there are a lot of rumors about him. ”

"Because every time he robs, he leaves three willow branches, so we all call him Liu Sanchang. ”

Qin Zulai: ......

You gave Liu Sanchang's name to a thief?

So where do you put Liu Yong??

But if you think about it carefully, Liu Yong will not be born for more than 300 years, so forget it.

Maybe at that time, the three changes of the thief saint willow would have long since turned into a pile of loess and dissipated in the world.

can be passed down through the ages, that is, only Liu Yongliu Sanchang, a graceful poet.

Speaking of this, Han Min couldn't help but feel a little strange, and said: "This Liu Sanchang will only leave a mark after committing the crime......"

"Why is this time, so arrogant! Before committing the crime, he left a warning letter?"

Moreover, the people he went to steal before were all wealthy families and some corrupt officials, and few people saw him in Chang'an. ”

"Why is he so high-profile this time, not only left a warning letter, but also stole His Majesty's jade seal. ”

When Qin Zulai heard Han Min's words, his eyes suddenly moved.

He looked at Han Min and asked, "Lord Han, you mean...... This time, Liu Sanchang's style of acting is different from the past?"

Han Min nodded and said, "That's right, he never left a warning letter in advance, and what he stole before was all valuable things like gold, silver, and jewelry. ”

The voice fell,

Qin Zulai's heart moved, and he suddenly thought of a possibility.

"It's not Liu Sanbian's doing, it's someone who wants to use his name to commit theft......"

Suddenly, two voices rang out in unison.

Qin Zulai was stunned, and the person who spoke on the other side was also slightly stunned.

The two looked at each other, and Qin Zulai found that the person who spoke was a stranger he didn't know.

That person, who seemed to see through Qin Zulai's thoughts, smiled, and arched his hand: "Yu Cheng, the new secretary of the Criminal Department, Lord Qin, has admired the name for a long time." ”

The new secretary of the criminal department??

Qin Zulai's eyes moved.

Li Xiaoyao said: "Lord Wei impeached Zhang Liang, and Yushitai also investigated it, Zhang Liang had been corrupt many times. ”

Therefore, His Majesty was furious and belittled Zhang Liang. ”

"Master Yu, he is the assassin of Youzhou, because of his outstanding political achievements, he has solved many big cases. ”

"Therefore, recommended by the eldest grandson, His Majesty specially transferred Lord Yu to the Criminal Department and served as the secretary of the Criminal Department. ”

A capable person who was transferred directly from the local government to the central government??

Qin Zulai hurriedly returned the salute, "It turned out to be Lord Yu, disrespectful, disrespectful." ”

Woo Seung smiled, his smile gentle and elegant.

"Lord Qin has never seen this official before, so it's normal not to know this official, and as a colleague in the future, you should cooperate and cooperate well. ”

"That's what U-sama said. ”

The two exchanged pleasantries, and they were officially acquainted.

Although I don't know how Yu Cheng is a person, Qin Zulai knows,

Being able to be transferred from the local government to the central government, and still holding such an important position as the secretary of the criminal department, this Yu Cheng's ability is definitely not bad.

Yu Cheng looked at Qin Zulai and asked, "What does Lord Qin think of this teaser letter?"

Qin Zu glanced at Yu Cheng, then looked at Li Er, and said, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this advance letter is clearly someone who deliberately took advantage of Liu Sanchang's reputation and wanted to frame Liu Sanchang. ”

Li Er's eyes flashed, and he asked, "Why do you say that?"

Qin Zulai continued: "No matter how magical the legend is that Liu Sanchang is, but in essence, he is a thief, and this can never be changed!"

And the thief's actions are mainly a hidden word, and the so-called hidden, that is concealment. ”

"For them, stealing silently, without any danger, that's the most important thing. ”

"Master Han also said before, Liu Sanchang, this person has never missed, has never been caught, and no one has ever seen him. ”

"The reason why he was able to do this was that he acted very secretively, never touched anyone, and finally left a willow branch mark, just to make a name for himself when he was sure to be safe. ”

So, he's already made a habit, and for a habitual thief, habit is absolutely the most important thing. ”

"Anything strange that he is not used to can have fatal consequences for him. ”

Therefore, as a habitual thief with a lot of experience, he will never leave a warning letter before stealing something. ”

Li Er thought about it, nodded as well, and said, "What you said is reasonable, then I don't have to worry about it." ”

"Nope. ”

Qin Zulai shook his head and said calmly: "Since the thief has put the teaser letter here, it is to attract our attention and let us set our eyes on Liu Sanbian. ”

That means that he will definitely come to steal the jade seal, and he is confident that he can steal the jade seal. ”

"Because only in this way can this letter be useful, otherwise why would he go to such a hurry and risk the letter to be delivered to His Majesty?"

Hearing this, Li Er's face became gloomy again.

"What a guts!!"

"This thief is really happy, this is the first time I have been teased like this!"

At this moment, Li Er was really extremely angry and ashamed.

He looked at Qin Zulai and said, "Qin Zulai, then you say, what should I do?"

"Who is it that has the audacity to steal my jade seal?"

Qin Zulai's eyes flashed slightly, and he said: "Your Majesty, now there is only such a warning letter to frame others, the evidence is insufficient, and the minister cannot judge who the thief is." ”

"But...... Didn't he say it? ”

Qin Zulai waved the teaser letter, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"On the night of the full moon, at the hour of the hour, he has already told us the time, and the night of the full moon is tomorrow night. ”

"He has the strength to deliver letters, and he is enough to steal the jade seal secretly, but he doesn't ......"

"That means he wants to steal the jade seal in front of all of us tomorrow night, right now. ”

"In that case, then we will satisfy him. ”

Li Er's eyes flashed and said, "You mean ......"

Qin Zulai smiled, "Tomorrow night, as long as he dares to make a move, the minister will be able to help His Majesty catch him!"

At this moment.

Li Er always felt that there was something wrong with Qin Zulai's smile, and it seemed that he had some bad intentions.

But he thought about it and nodded calmly.

"Since he dares to provoke me, then I, let's see if he has the ability!"

Tomorrow night, the Praetorian Guard, Dali Temple, the Criminal Department, and Jing Zhaoyi will be linked, and I won't believe it, he can really steal the jade seal under the noses of so many people. ”

After saying that, he seemed a little in a bad mood and a little impatient.

With a wave of his hand, he continued: "You all stand down, except for Qin Zu to stay, all of you stand down." ”

Everyone agreed, and they all acted according to Li Er's will.

The others bowed and bowed, and then left the main hall.
