Chapter 81 Denied Permissions
The sun is setting again, and the sun is twilight.
Xu Zun sat in the wide carriage of Lord Li Yan, and sat with the county guard Taimin.
Through the car window, it can be seen that Ju Ran is leading a group of people to hunt fast, using the cart of Yizhuang to collect the dead to transport the female corpse that appeared in the Huguo Temple.
Zhao Yu was really thick and thin, he deliberately rode a horse and followed the cart, staring at the corpse on the cart almost with good eyes, for fear of being stolen or destroyed.
Xu Zun happened to have this concern, and he was also worried that someone would be unfavorable to the corpse.
Because, the legend they know about the corpse of the monk-clothed woman is so far limited to Ju Ran.
They can't guarantee that what Ju Ran said is true, what if they were simply beaten into tricks, planted blame, and wronged good people?
Otherwise, why would this Taemin seem so panicked and nervous? And do you want to Ju Ran deliberately obstruct it?
If this is the case, then Ju Ran may use some kind of tricks, so he must be optimistic about the corpse.
However, then again, if Ju Ran is really lying, then there shouldn't be any need for him to make it up so meticulously, right?
What kind of monk is it, what kind of sutra is it, and the names of those sutras can he clearly remember?
Even if they were looking for a scapegoat to solve the case, they shouldn't be looking for a high-ranking monk, right?
Besides, after Liankong was arrested, there were no more cases, so it can't be proved that they arrested the wrong person?
To sum up, Xu Zun still came to a conclusion that Ju Ran should not be lying.
With such a well-known case, there is no need to lie at all.
Therefore, Xu Zun withdrew his gaze and glanced at Taemin, and asked another question instead:
"Lord County Shou, have you ever heard of a woman named Lu Xiaofeng?"
"What?" Taemin seemed to be in a trance, and when he heard Xu Zun's question, he retracted his spirit vigorously and asked repeatedly, "Lu Xiaofeng?" ”
"I heard," Xu Zun said, "her family lives in Bookstore Street, used to run a printing factory, and her ancestors were also Jinshi. ”
"Oh...... It turned out to be the Lu family bookstore," Taemin nodded, "I know, I know, but his family only runs a bookstore, how can my Daxuan's printing house be run privately, it belongs to the imperial court."
"That's right, this Boss Lu was the director of the printing house earlier, and we all called him Dr. Lu, and this official has dealt with him a lot before."
Majordomo? Doctor?
Xu Zun sounded a little kind.
Later, however, Dr. Lu quit his printing job and opened a bookstore, which made a lot of money! Hmm......" Taimin looked at Xu Zun suspiciously, "Why did Lord Xu ask about Lu Xiaofeng?"
"I don't know who this Lu Xiaofeng is from Dr. Lu?"
"It should be his daughter," Xu Zun asked again, "Have you heard that the family moved out of Shangyuan City a few months ago?" ”
"Oh?" Taemin was surprised, "Leaving Shangyuan City?" Why? ”
"......" Xu Zun was speechless for a second, and said, "I said that there was an urgent matter in my hometown, and I left suddenly, and I haven't returned yet." ”
"Impossible!" Taimin shook his head and waved his hand, an ugly smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "The Lu family is the surname of Shangyuan, the Hou family, this Dr. Lu's hometown is in Shangyuan City, what hometown do you want to go back to?" ”
"Oh?" This time, it was Xu Zun's turn to be surprised, and he hurriedly asked, "Are you sure?" ”
"Sure, the household registration of the workers in the printing factory is very strict," Taemin said, "and as the printing director, he has to remember it clearly."
"Unless, you're not talking about going back to your hometown, but going to visit your relatives."
Relatives?
Xu Zun shook his head, how could his relatives be in such a hurry? Not only did he not return for several months, but he also did not hear from him?
Seemingly...... The situation of Lu Xiaofeng's family is indeed worth paying attention to, I wonder if the disappearance of Miss Hou Fu will be related to this matter?
"Hmm......" Although Li Yan didn't understand it, he still asked with hope in his eyes, "Ji Ying, you suddenly asked about this person, did you find anything?" ”
"Master Li," Xu Zun thought of something, and hurriedly said to Li Yan, "There is something troublesome, you are tired to get me a search warrant, I want to search a place." ”
"Lord Xu," Tai Min grabbed the conversation and said, "If you want to go to Dr. Lu's house, you don't need a search warrant at all, you are Tangzhou to be sentenced, as long as you say a word!" ”
"No!" Who knows, Xu Zun said in surprise again, "What I want to search is not Dr. Lu's house." ”
"Oh?" Taemin wondered, "So where do you want to search?" ”
Xu Zun paused for a few seconds and said four words solemnly:
"Qing-Lan-Shu-Yuan!"
Who knows, as soon as these words came out, Li Yan and Taimin actually replied three words in unison:
"It's impossible to !!"
"Huh?" Xu Zun was surprised, "Why?" ”
"Why?" However, Li Yan also asked the same question, "Why did you investigate Lan Academy?" I can't find it there! ”
It was only at this time that Xu Zun noticed that the faces of the two adults were different, as if there was some kind of taboo in this Qinglan Academy.
Wululu......
Who knows, just when the two sides were puzzled, there was a sudden commotion outside the carriage, and it seemed that a team of people blocked the way.
Sigh......
The carriage stopped suddenly, and Li Yan didn't know what was going on, so he hurriedly picked up the curtain to check.
"Lord Thornshi, Lord Gunner, it's me!"
But seeing a middle-aged man wearing a green robe and dressed a little like a eunuch outside, he rode directly to stop the car.
"Oh, it's Steward Li!" Li Yan wondered, "What's wrong?" ”
"My lord," this Steward Li said eagerly, "Master Hou ordered the villain to come and specially invite that Xu Zun Xu to come to the Hou Mansion to talk!" ”
Yes?
Hou Ye?
Xu Zun understood what was going on, and the blue-robed man in front of him was the housekeeper of the Hou Mansion.
The reason why he came to invite him must be because Hou Ye had heard about his visit to investigate.
I left a suspense in the Hou Mansion, this Hou Ye loves his daughter very much, and he is bound to come to find himself.
"This ......"
However, Li Yan and Taimin didn't know what was going on, and they didn't understand why Hou Ye invited Xu Zun for no reason?
Even if you please, why didn't you take Xu Zun away directly just now, but you just sent someone to kill him back?
And looking at this menacing appearance, it doesn't look like "please"!
"Okay!" Li Yan agreed, "Since this is the case, then let's change our route now and go to the Hou Mansion to disturb together!" ”
"My lord! Hmm......" The housekeeper clasped his fists at Li Yan and said in embarrassment, "Our Hou Ye ordered that only Xu Ti be punished!" ”
"This ......"
As a result, Li Yan was even more worried.
But there was a huge disparity in status, and he couldn't stop it if he wanted to.
"It's okay," Xu Zun got out of the car calmly and said to Li Yan calmly, "Master Hou should just talk about the case when he looks for me, and I'll go back when I go to my humble position." ”
"This ......" Li Yan groaned and said to Xu Zun, "Ji Ying, don't be rude when you arrive at the Hou Mansion, be careful when you speak!" ”
"Well, don't worry!" Xu Zun had already had a plan in his heart.
"Also," but when Xu Zun turned around to leave, Li Yan suddenly reminded, "This may also be an opportunity, if you really want to check that Qinglan Academy, then take the opportunity to apply to Hou Ye!"
"Maybe he'll be able to help you get permission!"
Oh?
Hearing Li Yan say this, Xu Zun was undoubtedly more curious about this Qinglan Academy......
