Chapter 405: Forming a Network
Now the only way is to find the real mastermind and make the case an iron case, so that the two princesses can get out of prison.
Li Qinzai is very clear that the current situation is becoming more and more serious, and it has gradually detached itself from the nature of the case itself, and it has become more and more flavorful of political confrontation.
However, the source of everything is still the real mastermind who has not been caught.
To trace this source, we can only start with the enemies of Guo Fan and the others, and the direction may not be correct, but it is the only feasible direction, and other directions have become a dead end.
Holding the list screened by Song Sen in his hand, the list is full of people who theoretically have enmity with Guo Fan and the others, and more than 100 people are listed among them, and it is difficult to distinguish loyalty and traitor.
Li Qinzai could only distinguish them one by one, and even had to rely on guessing.
After staring at the list for a long time, Li Qinzai suddenly muttered: "There is one thing in common, most of the people who were bullied by Fan Yunxian were relatively down-and-out eunuchs in the palace, you see, some of them were the nursery supervisors of the Huanglin Garden, and some were the temple people of the Inner Service Province, and the highest official position was only the Nine Rank Masters of the Inner Service Province." ”
"Tsk, Fan Yunxian is the queen's chamberlain, a popular fried chicken in the Forbidden Palace, he is so unproductive, has nothing to do all day looking for the bad luck of these low-level eunuchs?"
Song Sen glanced at the list and said, "There is one thing that Li Xianbo may not know, these low-level eunuchs who were bullied by Fan Yunxian were all invincible celebrities in the Taiji Palace many years ago. ”
"Some of them are the people who serve around the queen, there are also the people who serve around Concubine Xiao Shu, and there are also the people around Li Zhong, the king of Liang, who is the abolished prince, at that time, they walked with their nostrils on their backs in the palace......"
"Later, Queen Wang and Concubine Xiao Shu were hanged, and the former prince was deposed, these invincible eunuchs lost their power, their status plummeted, and they naturally became low-level eunuchs."
"Fan Yunxian bullied them, probably because of the grudges that Empress Wu had accumulated with the masters of these people back then, so she was happy to torture them, which can be regarded as a vent of the evil anger of the queen and himself."
Li Qinzai was startled, his body involuntarily sat up straight, and he stared at the front of the list seriously again, and couldn't help but raise his hand and give Song Sen a slap.
"Are you stupid or have you had a stroke? Didn't you find such an obvious clue? Li Qinzai said angrily.
Song Sen covered his head inexplicably: "What clues?" ”
"In the list of more than 100 people, there are actually only more than 20 former celebrities, and the scope is locked in these more than 20 people to check one by one."
Song Sen was stunned and said: "What does Uncle Li mean is that only among these celebrities back then, can they be Fan Yunxian's enemies?" ”
Li Qinzai said in a deep voice: "The hatred accumulated for many years is the real hatred, and the rest of those who have been bullied swallow their anger, but it is just the spirit of cowards, they are used to being bullied, but they dare not take the initiative to retaliate." ”
"Only those eunuchs who have been popular, they have seen conspiracies, they have also experienced ups and downs, they know how to forbear, and they also know how to kill with one blow, these people are the real suspects."
Song Sen pondered for a long time, as if he had an understanding, then clapped his hands fiercely, and said excitedly: "If there are only more than 20 people, the lower officials will take them down, and torture them one by one, if you don't believe them, you won't recruit them!" ”
Li Qinzai sighed: "You have exposed your stupidity again......"
"Uh......" Song Sen really showed a puzzled and stupid look.
"You are a little Baiqi in charge, dare to make such a big move in the palace? Are you blind and deaf to the Son of Heaven and the Queen? ”
Song Sen was stunned for a long time, then straightened his clothes and bowed to Li Qinzai.
"The lower officials are dull, please teach Uncle Li."
"Go out and find a tree to hold onto, look up to the sky and shout 'I'm stupid' three times, and I'll tell you."
Song Sen: "............"
"Forget it, I can't offend you to death, maybe I'll have to cooperate next time." Li Qinzai regretfully changed his words.
Song Sen breathed a long sigh of relief and wiped the cold sweat from his head: "...... Thanks a lot. ”
"You let the eyeliner in the palace spread the news, just say that Guo Fan and the others who were locked up in Dali Temple retracted their confessions again, the real mastermind is someone else, Dali Temple has mastered the evidence, and tomorrow the court will face the Son of Heaven and lock up the criminals."
Song Sen was stunned: "And then?" ”
"Then send someone to keep an eye on these two dozen people and see how they react tonight."
"How will they react?"
Li Qinzai said slowly: "Innocent people may be scared and frightened when they hear the rumors, but they themselves know that they are innocent and will not make any moves. ”
But if it is the real mastermind, the reaction will be different, they may find a way to escape from the palace, they may bury the physical evidence, or they may pretend to inadvertently go around to find out about the mastermind...... In short, he will definitely make some kind of move. ”
Song Sen's eyes lit up: "A plan to attack the heart? High! ”
patting Song Sen on the shoulder, Li Qinzai said: "What we have to wait for is this person, can we do it if we are sure to take him down in the future?" ”
Song Sen straightened his chest: "Yes!" ”
Song Sen, who was excited, shook his hands and got up neatly to say goodbye: "Xiaguan will go and prepare and say goodbye." ”
Li Qinzai smiled encouragingly: "Go, Makabaka, useless little garbage." ”
…………
Outside Chang'an City, in the unknown apricot blossom forest, a grass house looms among the red and white elegant apricot blossoms.
There are only three or two rooms connected to the grass house, and there is a fence in the open space in front of the house, and some chickens and ducks are scattered behind the house, as well as two red-crowned cranes with handsome fairy wind.
Sandalwood was burning in front of the house, and an old man sat cross-legged, stroking a guqin in his hand with his eyes half-closed.
A quaint and distant piano sound echoed in the apricot blossom forest, wafting in the air with the faint smell of sandalwood, picturesque and elegant.
The old man devoted himself to the sound of his piano, completely forgetful and even a little enlightened, I don't know if he has comprehended the way of heaven in the sound of the piano, and there are faint signs of ascension.
The county lord of Jinxiang knelt on the futon, her little mouth pouted slightly, but she couldn't appreciate such an elegant piano sound at all, but was full of worries.
I don't know how long it took, the old man finally sighed, obviously this time there was no breakthrough, and there was no hope of ascension.
If Li Qinzai was present at this time, he must know this old man.
It's half an acquaintance.
At the beginning, Li Qinzai led the Li family to travel hundreds of miles, rushed from Chang'an to Taiyuan, and burned down the ancestral house of the Taiyuan Wang family.
And this old man is the great Confucian who stopped Li Qinzai outside the Wang family's ancestral house, Niu Fangzhi.
Later, when Niu Fangzhi learned the truth, he was immediately ashamed of himself, deeply ashamed of Wang's evil behavior, and angrily walked away in the fire of Wang's ancestral house, and broke off relations with Wang.
After breaking off diplomatic relations, Niu Fangzhi came to Chang'an alone, and found a quiet place outside Chang'an City to live in a quiet place to enjoy the quiet life of a hermit outside the world.
To this day, the quiet life was broken by the sudden arrival of the county lord of Jinxiang.
Why did Jin Xiang know this great Confucian cow Fang Zhi of the time?
Because of her father, King Teng.
An old gentleman who likes to be vassally elegant and specializes in making friends with the literati of the world.
