Chapter Fifty-Seven: The Immortals Behind the Immortal Bureau
Please discard the annotations to the regulations of the Gyeongkook Supervision Yuan and turn to the last page of Volume 5 of the Internal Reference Materials of the Supervision Yuan.
The fifth volume is a summary of the cases of the Supervision Yuan over the years, copying the analysis and summary of various representative cases in recent decades, and for all kinds of cases, it elaborates on the origin of the initial planning of the event, the process of brewing, the influence of the variables in it, and the final result.
Book 5 contains a lot of cases, and with the help of the intelligence system of the Inspectorate and the relevant evidence found in the events, it is enough to explain most of the so-called conspiracies in this world, to find the real reason for what happened, and the process in between, because human beings are actually far less imaginative than they themselves think.
But there is also a kind of case, people can only dig out one or two sides of the matter, but cannot explain everything, which is the three words written on the last page of the fifth volume, the three words that Fan Xian and Chen Pingping are very familiar with.
"Immortal Bureau. ”
......
......
The so-called immortal bureau refers to the occurrence of variables that cannot be judged by common sense in the incident, thus finding a situation that the immortals cannot predict.
For example, Chen Pingping led the black cavalry to assault thousands of miles, went deep into the border of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and captured Sean, who secretly returned to his hometown to attend his son's wedding. The Supervision Yuan has calculated all the details, even counting the heavier price, but Sean did not actually drink the wine carefully prepared by Lord Fei Jie at the wedding, and the leader of the Northern Wei Dynasty spy used a calm to the point of coldness, controlling his diet and everything around him.
But when the people of Kyungkook thought that the conspiracy could no longer follow the process, the story took a very unexpected turn - Sean listened to the noise coming from the new house. He began to be depressed and began to want to drink alcohol, and coincidentally, the captain of the pro-soldier who was in charge of taking care of the wine in his skin bag. I didn't hold back my cravings for wine on the journey, and I had already drunk all the wine, so this irresponsible captain of the personal army, when Lord Sean asked for wine, fainted in panic, and directly poured a bag of wine for the wedding.
So Sean was poisoned, so Chen Pingping and Fei Jie succeeded. And it wasn't until much later that Chen Pingping and the others knew that the reason why Sean was so depressed was because of his son...... Inhumane.
This variable. It didn't exist in the plan, but it had a huge impact on the situation.
Another example is that 20 years ago, a salt merchant in the south suddenly died after a birthday banquet. The Criminal Department has not found out the cause of the case, so it was transferred to the Supervision Yuan to deal with it everywhere, who knew that after checking and checking, it was found that 14 people were suspected of committing crimes that night, including aunts and wives. It seems that everyone wants the big businessman on the rich side to die quickly.
And who is the real murderer?
After another three years, a poor old man was caught stealing baked cakes and taken to the government, and he probably didn't want to live anymore. Three years ago, the salt merchant died at his hands. When they got the news, the people in the Supervision Yuan were ashamed and frightened, thinking to themselves how could these professionals let go of the real suspect? When they arrived at the scene of the crime for the first trial, everyone suddenly realized and was embarrassed.
The old man and the salt merchant were neighbors when they were children, and they grew up together since childhood, and later the old man went to live in Wuzhou, and when he returned to his hometown to settle down, he saw the salt merchant doing a big birthday, and he didn't know what evil he had. He actually climbed into the courtyard, picked up a stone, and stoned the drunk salt merchant to death.
The Supervision Yuan once paid attention to the scratches on the walls of the courtyard, but it never expected that an old man who had returned to his hometown and settled would take great risks and climb into the courtyard to commit murder, and he had not yet been discovered by the guards.
Yan Ruohai, who had not yet become the organizer of the four places at that time, asked the old man curiously: "Later, I transferred the case file, and Baozheng also asked you, why are you not nervous at all?"
The old man said, "What's there to be nervous about? ”
Yan Ruohai was probably the first time he had seen such a fierce character, but he was still very strange: "Why did you kill him?"
The old man replied confidently, "In winter, he slapped me. ”
......
......
The assassination of the Hanging Temple seems to be also a fairy bureau.
His Majesty the Emperor became increasingly suspicious of the Ye family, and was afraid that there was a great master in the other party's family, so he thought of such a shameless trick to frame the other party, on the one hand, he used the name of the harem to transfer the palace code away, and on the other hand, he put a small fire under the hanging temple. As for this fire, it is estimated that Fan Jian and Chen Pingping both know it.
And after the fire started, the top floor was a little chaotic, and the assassin of Xihu finally couldn't help but make a move when he saw such an opportunity. He has been in the palace for more than ten years, and he really can't stand it anymore, this kind of endless life is really uncomfortable, three years later, and then three years, I don't know when it will end - at that time, Gonggong Hong escorted the Queen Mother downstairs, and his judgment of Fan Xian's strong strength was a little biased, so he looked at the emperor who was only a few steps away, and decided to make a move!
The guards made a move and gave the white-clothed swordsman another chance.
The white-clothed swordsman made a move, and after the prince, the little eunuch who had been hiding for a long time, saw the emperor's back less than a foot away from him, and thought of the dagger that was less than a step away from him, hidden in the wooden pillar - he thought that this was an opportunity given to him by God - in the face of this naked temptation, he was determined to take revenge, and resolutely cut off the little cock into the palace, how could he miss it?
......
......
His Majesty the Emperor began a ridiculous arson, all the people who were hidden in the darkness sensitively smelled that there were too many opportunities to take advantage of the incident, of course, the assassins were some resolute and brave people, although they had never been in contact with each other, but they chose to find an opportunity to shoot one after another, as the so-called helping each other is to satisfy themselves, as long as they can kill the emperor of Qingguo, they will not hesitate to kill themselves, but they must cherish this opportunity created by mistake.
They came from all over the world, and they came together for the same goal, and they walked very resolutely and tacitly.
In Guangxin Palace in the middle of the night, Fan Xian was lying on the bed. Looking at the veil on the bed, I couldn't sleep, and I was raised in the palace these days after the injury, and I slept more during the day.
The candles in the palace were a little dim. His eyes were fixed on the thin veil, as if he wanted to use Sakuragi's stunner to tear the veil apart and see the truth behind it.
Wan'er had already slept, and she was far away from herself on the big bed, because she was afraid that when she moved at night, she would touch the wound on her chest and abdomen. Fan Xian turned his head to look at her, and stroked her long black hair exposed outside the pillow with some pity. The palace was very quiet, the eunuchs were asleep, and the palace maids on duty at night were resting on the square pier. Fan Xian turned his gaze to the sky again and began to talk to himself.
It's just that his lips opened and closed slightly, and he didn't make the slightest sound. He was asking questions to himself, and at the same time he was combing through the ins and outs of the matter.
"Xihu's assassins, hidden little eunuchs, these are all objects that leave evidence of death, so the supervision court should judge that there should be no problems. His lips opened and closed silently in the darkness of the night. It looked a little weird, "But what about the shadow? Probably no one knows the white-clothed swordsman except himself." It's the six bosses who have lived in the dark for many years and have never been seen before, the most powerful assassin shadow in Qingguo. ”
His eyebrows curled up a little nicely.
"Immortal Bureau, I think this immortal must be a cripple. He sneered and sneered contemptuously at the empty bed: "The emperor wants to arrange a bureau to eliminate the Ye family's power in Kyoto and cut off the hand that the eldest princess may be holding in advance...... Presumably even the emperor felt that I forced the second child too hard, and he must have known his actions against Xinyang after the year. ”
Fan Xian couldn't help but gasp when he thought of this. I don't know if it was caused by the pain of the wound, or I was frightened by the emperor's underground methods, and thought: "Your Majesty is really too despicable and shameless!"
"Then what do you want to do?" he guessed Chen Pingping's true intentions. "If I ask you face to face, I think you will only sit in a wheelchair and say: In Chen Yuan, I told you that I will deal with this kind of thing about the Holy Family. ”
"Holy Grace?"
"After the situation has changed, you still have the leisure to arrange for the shadow to assassinate, and then let yourself be this hero?"
"Is it that simple?"
As the number one assassin of Qingguo, it is not such an unimaginable thing that the shadow can hide from the ears of Gonggong Hong. It's just that Fan Xian refuses to believe that the shadow's shot is simply to set up a game and save the emperor's life, so as to save the injured and get the unshakable saint, the movement is too big, and the result is not rich enough, which is not in line with Chen Pingping's character who calculates to the bones, so he always feels that Chen Pingping has something to hide from herself.
"And you're not afraid, I know it's the shadows. Fan Xian raised his eyebrows, "But if you want to assassinate the emperor, this can't be said, let's not talk about the problem of the loyal dog's sudden disloyalty, but with your strength, if you want to assassinate, you will definitely create a more perfect environment." Do you want to test those princes on behalf of the emperor?**, you old dog is too nosy, and the emperor probably doesn't want to be so frightened. ”
Thinking about it, he was entangled in the situation and could not extricate himself, so he had to sigh and fall asleep slowly, but even in his sleep, he still believed that his mother's old comrades-in-arms must have hidden the deepest dark thoughts in their hearts extremely deeply, and refused to give anyone a chance to peep.
"There is no real fairy bureau in this world. Chen Pingping sat in a wheelchair and whispered to the blindfolded man in the Yuanzi forest: "You also know, the death of the salt merchant mentioned in the five books...... The reason why the old man who snatched the baked cakes was able to kill the salt merchant with ease was because the guards in the house had already been bought off by the aunts, and they would love to see someone help them in this way. ”
And the old man would attack the salt merchant, not because he slapped him many years ago. ”
"The precise reason is that the salt merchant robbed the old man's daughter-in-law back then. ”
"The revenge of killing his wife is always relatively large. ”
"And don't believe that Yan Ruohai won't be able to find out about this, in fact, you and I both know that he was dazzled by the 50,000 taels of silver tickets given by the concubines of the salt merchants that time. ”
"So to speak. The old cripple concluded, "There is no fairy bureau." Everything is artificially arranged, and even if there are coincidental variables, they are under my control, if not controlled. Your Majesty should have died by this time. ”
Wuzhu said indifferently: "There has never been a complete control of things in the world. ”
"I admit that the presence of the Xihu assassin and the little eunuch has indeed almost disrupted my entire plan...... Fortunately, it did not have a fundamental impact on His Majesty's safety. ”
"From your tone, I can't tell that you are loyal enough to the Emperor. ”
Chen Pingping laughed: "I am loyal to Your Majesty, but for the sake of Your Majesty's true interests, I don't mind Your Majesty being frightened." ”
"What are the real interests? A mature enough successor?" Perhaps only in the face of Chen Pingping, an old acquaintance, would Wuzhudi speak as much as it does today.
"Planning. Chen Pingping said: "Politics is a process of planning, Your Majesty wants to drive away the Ye family, just a fire." That's not enough. ”
"Do you think that the emperor would believe your explanation if he knew the truth of the matter?" Wuzhu said indifferently.
Chen Pingping shook her head: "As long as it is good for Your Majesty, can I be trusted." It's not an important thing. ”
Wuzhu believed that he and Fei Jie were both such old perverts, and said softly: "Your emperor almost died. ”
Chen Pingping is very accustomed to his rebellious title, since many years ago, Wuzhu will never call His Majesty like ordinary mortals, and he is in awe.
"Your Majesty will not die. "The old man's words are very powerful. "This is what I absolutely believe in, and don't forget that His Majesty will never let people know his final hole cards. ”
"He can't die. I don't care much. Wuzhu suddenly tilted his head, "I only care, he almost died." ”
The two of them represent Wuzhu's completely different attitudes.
Chen Pingping smiled bitterly, of course he knew that Fan Xian was accidentally seriously injured, what kind of terrifying killing machine would turn Lao Wu into, even if the old traitor was as sinister as him, when facing the indifferent Wuzhu, there was still a chill from the bottom of his heart. So he tried to explain: "Fan Xian was worried that the emperor would have some doubts about him because of his rapid rise, so I arranged this matter to solve his doubts once and for all...... Of course, I laid out the beginning of the story, but I didn't guess the end of the story. ”
He smiled slightly, and seemed to be very proud that he still remembered the mantra of the young lady back then: "Although this has a lot to do with the shadow, he always wants to fight with you, and you don't give him this opportunity, so it is rare to have the opportunity to do it with your own disciple, he is really a little reluctant, of course, if Fan Xian doesn't chase him out and is so seriously injured, this matter will not have much significance." ”
Wuzhu suddenly said very abruptly: "You let the shadow come back, and I will give him a chance to fight with me." ”
This cold joke almost choked Chen Pingping, and after coughing for a long time, she spread her hands and said, "It's just an accident." ”
Wuzhu said directly: "If it was just an accident, why did he run away before I came?"
Chen Pingping's face was full of wry smiles, and she coughed a lot before she recovered: "This ...... It's my arrangement, because I'm worried that you'll be unhappy and let him have some accidents, you must know that there is such a really good person around me...... If you kill him, how will my old bones survive?"
Wuzhu didn't speak, only the black cloth fluttering in the night wind was expressing his dissatisfaction.
"When I die, the Shadow will be loyal to him. Chen Pingping said her return very seriously.
Wuzhu tilted his head slightly, as if he was considering whether Fan Xian would accept this compensation, and after thinking for a while, based on his judgment, a lustful and powerful person like Fan Xian would definitely be interested in a super strong assassin on the ninth grade.
He was silent for a moment, and then said, "You found me in the south and said that there are interesting things to show me in the capital...... Is this the play?"
"Fan Xian always said that you were playing in the south, I thought he was lying to me. Chen Pingping said: "I didn't expect you to be really in the south, this thing is very coincidental." ”
Chen Pingping suddenly leaned forward: "I'm going to let you watch the play, but it's a pity that I underestimated Fan Xian's strength and Fan Jian's shamelessness." This old boy, knowing that the fire was set by His Majesty, hurried to rush Fan Xian upstairs to rescue the driver......" The old man laughed sharply, "I didn't let you see it." It's a pity. ”
Wuzhu slowly raised his head: "You want to kill the Queen Mother?"
Chen Pingping shook her head: "After all, the Queen Mother is Fan Xiandi's grandmother, and Miss Miss, although she watched this incident happen, and did not help the Taiping Courtyard, but after all, she did not personally participate in this matter...... So far, what I've found out isn't enough to say anything. ”
Wuzhu shook his head and said indifferently: "If you find something in the future, or I find something, no matter what Fan Xian does...... I'll do it. ”
Chen Pingping knew what kind of determination and strength the three words "I will do" represented, but he still shook his head firmly: "Old five." Although you are the most terrifying person in the world, still don't underestimate the true ...... of a country and a palace Strength. And since the old man is the president of the Supervision Yuan. It is also necessary to consider how the world of Qingguo can be passed on safely. ”
"Don't forget, this is also the last wish of the young lady. He smiled and said, "So I'll do these boring things." ”
"And what were you going to show me?"
Chen Pingping suddenly sighed, and her voice seemed a little lonely: "Since this scene has not been staged, don't say it again at this time." ”
Wuzhu's reaction was not like ordinary people. Seemingly not interested in asking at all, he turned cleanly, ready to disappear into the darkness.
"After you took the young master to Shanzhou. We never met again. Chen Pingping suddenly sighed behind him, "I haven't seen you for seventeen years, and you're going to leave so soon?"
Wuzhu paused and said two dry words: "Take care." ”
Then he really disappeared into the darkness, but with Wuzhudi's strength and temperament, it was already a wonderful thing to make him say the word take care, at least, Chen Pingping felt a little more warmth in her heart.
Chen Yuan's old servant walked over. Pushing his wheelchair into the room. Chen Pingping didn't know what she was thinking, and suddenly sighed with some satisfaction, and said, "You said that you were able to successfully induce those two extremely patient guards and little eunuchs to do it...... Am I a very good person, but thanks to the Xihu assassin, if he watched Fan Xian go upstairs and continued to ambush him in ambush, it would be very boring. ”
The old servant smiled bitterly and said, "The dean's master has no last resort. ”
Chen Pingping sighed: "I was born to work hard, and I never forget to pull nails for Your Majesty...... Where can you count your majesty? ”
He stayed in the palace for a few more days, until the frost became heavier and there was a sign of snow in the sky, and at Fan Xiandi's strong request, Emperor Qingguo finally allowed him to go home.
After experiencing the rescue of the Hanging Temple, as long as there are people with eyes, they can recuperate their injuries through the palace, and His Majesty is angry in many details, and it is found that Fan Xian's holy family is not only restored to the same as before, but it is still better than usual, after all, he uses his body to block in front of the life-killing sword, even if it is a move to invite favor, but it is also a life in exchange for the grace of the land, not too many people will be red-eyed, just a jealousy.
On the day that Fan Xian left the palace, all the palaces sent extremely rich gifts, even the queen was no exception, and the gifts of the second prince's biological mother, Shu Guifei, were particularly heavy, and the palaces were full of rumors, except for Ning Cai's heroic nature, Yi Gui Concubine and the Fan family were close, not much in the accident, no one dared to despise this matter.
Even the old ancestor of the Queen Mother rewarded Fan Xian with the evil beads that he had used for more than ten years, where did those ladies dare to be careless.
Fan Xian was half-lying in the carriage, although the injuries in his chest were not yet fully healed, but at least there was no problem in turning over slightly. He lifted the corner of the curtain of the car window, looked at the round pearl in his hand by the light of the earth and sky outside, squinted his eyes slightly, and thought, could it be that the genuine grandmother is finally willing to accept his existence?
Along the way, Lin Wan'er and Ruoruo were the happiest, they were really a little bored after staying in the palace for so many days, and Fan Xian's injury was better day by day, which made the aunt and sister-in-law feel a lot more relieved.
The carriage traveled to the main gate of Fan's Mansion, between the two stone lions, wooden planks had already been laid on the steps, and the middle gate of Fan's Mansion was wide open, as if to welcome the holy decree, and the carriage was carefully welcomed in.
Generally speaking, it is impossible for the carriage to enter the mansion directly through the main gate, but the eldest young master is injured like this, so it is natural to arrange it properly.
The carriage drove directly to the back house, and Fuji Zijing and a few people carefully carried Fan Xian down, and Sisi carefully guarded her, she was not qualified to enter the palace, and she was in a hurry at home these days.
Fan Xian looked at her slightly red cheeks, sneered a few words, turned his head, and saw his father and the Liu family.
He looked at the faint care in his father's eyes, his heart warmed, and he said softly: "Father, I'm back." ”
