Time flies, time flies.

Unconsciously, most of the month has passed, and the Investigation Department of the Supervision Office has been dispatched to search day and night, but no clues have been found, and no one has attacked the people of Qinjiazhuang again.

On this day, Li Dejian returned to the office as usual, ready to sort out his thoughts, and an unexpected person came to visit in a hurry, it was Xue Rengui, who was dusty, his eyes were full of bloodshots, and he hadn't slept for several days when he saw it, and he came over with a breath.

Li Dejian knew very little about Xue Rengui, only that it was someone around Qin Huaidao, and Qin Huaidao obeyed the eldest brother, and he couldn't figure out what to do, so he invited people into the yafang.

Xue Rengui knew Li Dejian's identity, and he was also the first person Qin Huaidao told him to find after returning to Chang'an, and after entering the city, he asked the team to return to his house, and he came directly to him, and he didn't talk nonsense, handed over a letter and said solemnly: "Lord Li, the young master of my family sent me to find you, I need to give a letter to Lu Dongzan with my own hands, I don't know if it can be convenient?" ”

"Follow me." When Li Dejian heard that it was Qin Huaidao's meaning, he did not refuse.

The two returned to the backyard not long after, pushed open the door of the private room where Lu Dongzan was under house arrest, Xue Rengui looked at Lu Dongzan, he didn't know, and looked at Li Dejian, Li Dejian nodded knowingly, and said, "Da Yan, someone is looking for you." ”

Lu Dongzan looked up and down curiously, and said bluntly: "The old man doesn't know, who are you?" ”

"My young master, Qin Huaidao, Lord Qin, has a letter for you." Xue Rengui went up familiarly.

"Lord Qin's letter? Good thing, I haven't seen him for a long time. Lu Dongzan took it and opened it, took out a few pieces of paper and looked at it, and soon his face changed greatly, he became nervous, and quickly took a closer look.

There is not much content, but the words are like thunder, the fried Lu Dongzan was in a big mess, he never thought that Tubo would be gone, if it wasn't for the envelope and his son's handwritten letter, I would never believe it, after reading it, he didn't move, and looked out of the window fixedly, like a clay sculpture.

Li Dejian was a little curious, he could make an old fox like Lu Dongzan lose his soul, I am afraid that the content above is not simple, but the smart one didn't ask much, looked at Xue Rengui, Xue Rengui did not stay for long, hugged his fists and said: "The letter has been brought, Master Li, retire first." ”

"I'll send you." Li Dejian said politely, the person who can make Qin Huaidao call him a big brother is not simple, and there is no harm in making friends, adding: "Seeing that you are physically and mentally exhausted, forget it today, wait for you to rest well, find a time to have a meal together, how about it?" ”

"Thank you Lord Li for your appreciation, I'm afraid I can't do it recently, can I wait for the young master to come back?"

"Okay, please!" Li Dejian sent Xue Rengui out of the door and returned to the private room under house arrest, seeing that Lu Dongzan was still in his original position, motionless, and even more lost his soul, knowing that the matter was not small, he was ready to leave first.

At this time, Lu Dongzan suddenly said: "Master Li, the old man is in a bad mood, but he has wine." ”

"I'm going to get some for you." Li Dejian didn't refuse, and when he saw a tear suddenly flashing in Lu Dongzan's eyes, his heart was shocked, but he didn't ask much and left in a hurry.

Not long after, Li Dejian came over with a jar of liquor and a plate of braised beef, put it on the table and said: "This is the liquor brewed by Lord Qin, and the official is reluctant to drink it, and today it is cheaper for you." ”

Lu Dongzan didn't speak, picked up the wine jar and opened it, and poured it directly into his mouth, exuding a desperate aura on his body, which made Li Dejian feel shocked, and hurriedly shouted: "This is a high degree of liquor, you can't drink it like this." ”

"Knock, knock."

The sweet liquor went down the esophagus, and Lu Dongzan kept swallowing, like a hopeless person who longed for anesthesia, escaped, tired, and hated to go.

Soon, a jar of liquor went down for the most part, Lu Dongzan felt that he couldn't breathe, breathed a sigh of relief, wiped his mouth, looked at Li Dejian's eyes were red, and said: "Lord Qin ruined my dream, but gave me a new dream, I don't know whether to hate or be grateful, my heart is like numbness, the person you are looking for is in the prince's manor." ”

After speaking, Lu Dongzan craned his neck and continued to swallow heavily.

Li Dejian's heart moved, he couldn't understand the new and old dreams, but he understood the last sentence, there is only one place in the Tang Dynasty called the Prince Manor, and it is also the only place that the Supervision Mansion has not checked these days, and he was overjoyed, and he saw Lu Dongzan slumped to the ground, fell asleep, and the wine jar rolled down.

Li Dejian was in a good mood when he got the prompt, and he had a little more affection for Lu Dongzan, hugged the person on the bed, and left in a hurry.

After coming to the office office, Li Dejian suddenly realized a problem, the prince's manor is a royal child, covering a large area, with mountains, rivers and farmland, in the east of Chang'an City, is the manor of the current prince, guarded by the princess rate, can not be approached without approval, how can this be checked?

actually involved the crown prince, no wonder Lu Dongzan said that he would kill himself if he knew it, and the stakes were very high, Li Dejian didn't dare to make his own decisions, thinking that his father should be in the research institute at this time, and hurriedly went out.

Not long after, Li Dejian came to the research institute, the guards guarding the door knew, and let him go directly, Li Dejian was not the first time to come, he found an attic on the road, and motioned to the guards guarding the door to leave and push the door in.

Li Jing, who was dealing with official business, raised his head: "Go in such a hurry, what's wrong?" ”

Li Dejian was worried that the partition wall had ears, looked left and right, Li Jing suddenly realized that the matter was not small, signaled to follow, and came to a garden pavilion together, the breeze was blowing, and he knew the chirp, which was quite quiet and leisurely fun, but Li Dejian was not in the mood to appreciate it, looked at no one around, and said in a low voice: "Father, a person named Xue Rengui came over, said that he was entrusted by Huaidao, and gave Lu Dongzan a letter. ”

"What?" Li Jing's face changed greatly.

"Be quiet." Li Dejian cautiously looked around, and after making sure that no one was there, he breathed a sigh of relief, and added: "What is my father panicking, is this Xue Rengui unreliable?" ”

"No, Huaidao has mentioned this person to me more than once, and I have also secretly checked it, a reliable person."

"If it is reliable, then the letter is really entrusted by Huaidao, I don't know what is written to make Lu Dongzan change so much."

"You go into detail, it's good to miss a detail."

Li Dejian nodded and carefully explained what had just happened, Li Jing listened carefully and fell into silence, Li Dejian felt more and more that the matter was not small, and waited patiently.

After a while, Li Jing advised: "The matter of the letter must not be mentioned to anyone again, Lu Dongzan's words may not be credible, and the Prince Villa is special, no holy decree can not be clearly investigated, and it must not be investigated, find some stable and credible people to disguise, stare outside the village, once it is exposed, withdraw immediately, and wait for Huaidao to come back." ”

"It's hard to be true......"

"Shut up, don't talk, don't ask." Li Jing hurriedly interrupted.

Li Dejian realized that the matter was probably more complicated than he expected, so he didn't ask any more questions, solemnly agreed, left in a hurry, and deployed.

Li Jing looked in the direction of the East Palace, his eyes were solemn, it was about the prince, and he had to be cautious.

After a moment of silence, someone outside came to report: "My lord, the Holy One has summoned you." ”

Li Jing agreed and hurriedly went out, Xue Rengui came back, and the messenger must have also returned, bringing the latest news from Tubo, and I don't know what excuse Huaidao will find to refuse to be crowned king?

The carriage traveled all the way to the palace unconsciously.

Li Jing hurriedly entered, and when he came to the Manna Palace, he saw that Li Er was angry, and the atmosphere was very tense.

Li Er also saw Li Jing who came in, and shouted angrily: "The pharmacist came just in time, and you also came to evaluate the reasoning, this Huaidao actually asked to resign from the title of king and reward a princess instead, it is simply audacious, whimsical, arrogant, and unforgivable." ”

Speaks the most ruthless words, but uses the most intimate nickname.

When Li Jing heard that he was called a pharmacist, he called Qin Huaidao "Huaidao", not Aiqing, an adult, etc., it can be seen that he is happy in his heart, but this reason is a bastard, he has already married a princess, and he still wants one, he is really bold, arrogant, whimsical, and unforgivable.

The royal princess is unspeakably expensive, how can she serve a husband together?

But I have to admit that this excuse is simply too good, it can not only make the civil and military officials angry, take back the reward, but also harmless, not hurt himself, Li Jing praised it in his heart, but he held back a smile, and deliberately said with a straight face: "The saint scolded him very much, and he didn't know the height of the sky and the thickness of the sky with a little credit, and he got carried away, he was provoking the law of the imperial court, this example must not be opened, otherwise everyone will follow suit, what kind of system will it be?" Where does the majesty of the imperial court remain? The minister suggested that the reward be withdrawn, and the merits should be offset. ”

Fang Xuanling also held back a smile, pretending to be indignant and said: "Yes, Lord Qin is provoking the majesty of the imperial court, the crime is unforgivable. ”

"The reward is still to be rewarded." Li Er's tone changed.

The ministers were shocked, the script was wrong, and they all looked at Li Er.
