The moonlight is cold.

At the gate of Xu Guogong's mansion, Gao Shilian's face sank, and he said coldly: "The old man is the emperor's family, how can you say that you can search it, where is the old man's face?" What if you can't find it? ”

"If you can't find it, you can't find it, Lao Tzu is ordered to do an errand, and the people below see it in, so they have to check, if you stop it, you are shielding, and you won't be allowed to enter the house, Lao Tzu will not come in, please come up and preside over justice." Cheng Yanjin said coldly, flicked the horse's head, and headed in the direction of the palace.

If it weren't for Li Jing's order, Yi Cheng would have rushed in to search with Cheng Biting Jin's hot temper, but now it's different, and he can't hurt Gao Shilian if he catches someone, so it's better to wait for Qin Huaidao to kill this old man later.

Gao Shilian saw that Cheng Biting Jin was not as unreasonable as usual, and he panicked inexplicably, if the saint really came over, the consequences would be very serious, his eyes flashed with a cold light, and he didn't open his mouth to stop it, turned around and hurried back to the house.

Cheng Yanjin saw that Gao Shilian did not stop him, and more and more proved that there were ghosts, this is a hurry to return to the house to deal with the aftermath, but he doesn't care, as long as the person is inside, it will be easy to do, the top priority is to get the holy decree to enter the mansion, find the killer and sit on the charge, as for the disposal, it is the matter of the saint and Qin Huaidao, and he can't do it for himself.

galloped all the way, and soon came to the palace, and found Li Er, who was still working overtime to deal with government affairs, Li Er's face became gloomy after hearing it, if Gao Shilian really took in the killer of Fengyulou, it means that Gao Shilian has not given up his obsession back then, and he is mixed with the former prince, what is this going to do?

Li Er would not be merciful in anything that affected the imperial power, put down the notebook, and said coldly: "Get up, I will personally go and see what this uncle wants to do?" ”

Cheng Biting Jin was eager to make a big deal and did not dissuade him.

It was a big deal to go out of the palace in the middle of the night, and the internal guards were dispatched to impose martial law and blockade all along the way, and the party hurriedly came to the Xuguo Mansion, and someone had already notified Gao Shilian in advance to wait at the door.

Seeing Li Er get out of the carriage with a cold face, Gao Shilian felt bitter in his heart, but he stepped forward with a strong and happy face and saluted solemnly: "The old minister is on his body." ”

"Tall man is so majestic." Li Er said coldly.

Gao Shilian knew that it was bad as soon as he heard the title and tone, and hurriedly said with a bitter face: "The minister is panicked, thanks to Lord Cheng's reminder just now, I checked it, and there are really a few strangers hiding in the mansion, I would rather die than surrender, and I committed suicide when I saw that there was no escape. ”

"Is it really unaware, or is it a broken tail to survive?" Li Er said coldly.

"The old minister doesn't dare, please see it." Gao Shilian panicked, and hurriedly gestured to his subordinates to carry out a corpse, all dressed in black, with black scarves, and the wounds were all around the neck, which looked like suicide.

Li Er glanced at the corpse and said coldly, "Of course I will find out and go in and search." ”

"Yes!" Cheng bit Jin Daxi and rushed in with a large group of people.

Gao Shilian's face turned pale in an instant, as if he was struck by lightning, he thought that he was looking for an uninformed excuse to hand over a few dead ghosts to prove his innocence, Li Er would put a horse on his relatives and get the matter over, but he didn't expect Li Er to be so resolute and search, how can this be good?

Thinking of the consequences of the exposure of the matter, Gao Shilian was completely confused, and he was extremely remorseful, but he endured it and secretly prayed in his heart not to find it, not to find it......

Li Er can give face to other things, after all, he is his uncle, but when it comes to imperial power, Li Er can't tolerate it, he has been observing Gao Shilian, and when he sees the other party's reaction, he still doesn't know the result? My heart was full of disappointment, and anger, I thought that after so long, it was time to let go and give me a chance to make a comeback, high-ranking officials, since this is the case, then don't blame yourself for being unkind.

It didn't take long for Cheng Yanjin to catch more than 50 people out, half of them were shot, and half of them were injured and became prisoners.

Li Er looked at the person he caught, his face was pale, he looked deeply at Gao Shilian, who had fainted, flicked his sleeves, got into the carriage, lifted the curtain of the car and shouted: "Cheng Heizi, block the Xuguo Mansion, no one is allowed to visit, go out, interrogate overnight, I want to see the confession before dawn." ”

"Yes!"

Cheng Yanjin hurriedly agreed, and threw himself to the ground with admiration for Li Jing's calculations, now it was good, not only caught the murderer, but also hit Gao Shilian, and picked it all by himself, he was in a good mood, and he was in high spirits, and shouted: "Listen well, no visits, no going out, waiting for the holy judgment." ”

After speaking, he glanced at Gao Shilian, who was unconscious, the saint has no will, of course he can't be arrested, thinking that he has a living mouth in his hand, he is not afraid of no clues, Gao Shilian is dead, and there is no need to do anything.

"Someone, take the prisoners, and the bodies of the wanted criminals."

"Obey!" Someone took the order with a bang.

Soon, a group of people left in a mighty manner and went straight to the Southern Yasi of the forbidden army.

The next day, the morning pilgrimage.

The civil and military officials were separated on both sides, and the hall was quiet and a little depressed, leaving only the officials of each ministry to report in turn according to the custom, but no one listened attentively.

Thinking about what happened last night, the grand family, the Duke of Xu Guo was actually forcibly broken into by the forbidden army, and the saint rushed there in person, this matter is definitely not trivial.

Today's pilgrimage will definitely have a good show.

Just thinking about it, an inner servant hurriedly came, probed his brain at the door, and did not dare to enter, the chief manager Wang De hurriedly went over to inquire, his face changed greatly, he hurriedly returned, hurriedly came to Li Er's side, and whispered in a low voice: "Saint, the big thing is not good, the eldest son of Duke Xu Guo came to report the news, saying that Duke Xu Guo was worthy of the grace of the saint, and last night, he cut himself." ”

"What?"

Li Er was taken aback, his face instantly gloomy, as soon as Gao Shilian died, it was equivalent to taking all the responsibility for the crime, pleading guilty and surrendering to the law, the key clues were broken, there was no way to investigate deeply, and there was no evidence for his death, so he could not be convicted of treason, otherwise he would have a reputation as unkind.

The more he thought about it, the more angry Li Er became, and said secretly: "You have to put it together when you die, you are his uncle, not my uncle, why are you so partial?" ”

The hundreds of officials in the hall felt Li Er's anger, and they all knew that the show had begun, cheered up, and those who were reporting the situation also stopped talking, and the scene was instantly quiet, revealing a little depression.

After waiting for a while, Li Er whispered a few words to Wang De, and said coldly: "Xu Guogong Gao Shilian is suspected of harboring the killer of Fengyulou, the matter was exposed, and he committed suicide last night. ”

"Boom-"

The audience was in an uproar, Xu Guogong actually shielded the killer of Fengyulou, how could it be?

But the holy Chrysostom said that he had made a qualitative characterization of the matter, and he must have mastered some evidence, and it is impossible to be false, but this makes it even more difficult for everyone to accept, usually a good old man, looking at everyone with a smile, Xu Guogong, who has the demeanor of an elder, actually shielded the killer of Fengyulou? How so.

Li Er was tired, after all, he was the uncle of the Holy Queen, and he was also half of his uncle, and said indifferently: "Retreat from the dynasty." ”

The morning dynasty ended in a hurry, and everyone saw that Li Er didn't mean to explain, and they didn't dare to ask more, so they inquired about each other's news and walked out.

Wang De stepped forward quickly, stopped Cheng Yanjin, Fang Xuanling and the eldest grandson Wuji, and led them to the side hall, Li Er was already waiting, his face was ugly, he glanced at the eldest grandson Wuji, and motioned for everyone to sit down.

The eldest grandson Wuji knew Li Er too well, so he didn't dare to sit down, and asked bluntly: "Holy Lord, the minister and the holy queen are thanks to their uncle's pull, and they have a deep relationship, and the minister doesn't understand very much, why does it happen?" ”

"You mean I wronged him?" The fire pressed by Li Er jumped up a little.

"I don't dare, I just want to know the truth." Eldest Sun Wuji hurriedly said.

Li Er glanced at Cheng Yanjin, Cheng Yanjin nodded knowingly, explained in detail what happened last night, and finally added: "Lord Changsun, the captive is still locked up in the Nanyasi, and he has confessed last night, if you don't believe it, you will interrogate yourself in a while." ”

The matter was detailed, and many people were present, the eldest grandson Wuji knew that it was impossible for Cheng Yanjin to lie about this kind of thing, because he couldn't stand up to investigation, but he still couldn't believe it.

The eldest grandson Wuji couldn't figure it out, and Li Er couldn't figure it out either, so he looked at Cheng Yanjin: "What did you recruit?" ”

"Back to the saint, they escaped from the Divine Sword Villa, and the young master of Fengyulou, Lei Wu, infiltrated Chang'an, looked for an opportunity to burn a barbecue, and then sneaked into the mansion of Xu Guo to hide, looking for an opportunity to leave, if it wasn't for the Holy Lord's decree to close the city and arrest him, he would have fled." Cheng Yanjin hurriedly said.

"That's all?" Li Er asked, his brows furrowed, very dissatisfied.
