Chapter 167: Each has a ghost
On the other end, Cheng Yanjin, who came out of the Taiji Palace, was also covered with sweat.
It's obviously early spring, and the weather is still very cold, but there are not a few people who sweat on their heads and backs today.
Cheng Yanjin glanced back at the tall and majestic palace.
The monstrous killing intent and anger that His Majesty Li Er showed today had only been seen ten years ago.
That year was the change of Xuanwumen.
As an old minister who has followed Li Shimin for many years, Cheng Yanjin knows him very well.
Even the invasion of the Turkic barbarians, the provocation of the foreigners, and even the Weishui Alliance, which humiliated him, never made him so angry.
Because Li Shimin was very sure from beginning to end that he had the ability to defeat those enemies.
All grievances are temporary, and the final winner will always be him.
But today's situation is different.
If you insist on an analogy......
It's more like Li Shimin, who was still the king of Qin back then, heard the news that the vague prince Li Jiancheng was ready to make a move, and then decided to strike first, the murderous intent and anger he showed!
He is a very proud person, and he must not tolerate someone trying to control the world in front of him or behind his back.
It is even more unbearable that someone tries to change the crown prince and shake the safety of Li Chengqian.
This is equivalent to stepping directly on the skin of the face and trampling on his majesty!
Shook his head.
Cheng Yanjin muttered to himself:
"I don't know who's behind it......"
"The old man only hopes that this matter is not touched by the Qinghe Cui family."
"Hehe, fuck it! If they really don't know how to get involved in this matter, the old man can't save anyone! ”
His current wife is from the Qinghe Cui clan.
Although it is not the same room as the one in the capital now, if something happens to the other party, the same clan will help each other.
But if his wife comes to him for help, then he can only stand by and watch.
After all, he didn't want to bear the wrath of His Majesty Li Er.
Cheng Yanjin thought the same as Lu Heng-
Dead friends, immortal poor friends!
………………
An hour later.
Wing Country Mansion.
Qin Qiong looked at Cheng Biting Jin who came to the door in some surprise, and saw that the other party's black face was about to turn white, he was very curious.
"Zhijie, what's going on, what's going on with you being in such a hurry?"
Cheng Yanjin was not polite to him, picked up the water bowl on the table and poured several bowls of water before finally speaking.
"Over there in Anhuafang, Lu Heng's Tianxia Bookstore is on fire, don't you know about this?"
"Xiao Yu poured the fire oil, I don't know who set the fire."
Hearing this, Qin Qiong suddenly stood up in shock.
He hurriedly asked:
"What the hell is going on? Is Lu Heng injured? Is the fire under control now? Are there any casualties over there? In addition to Lu Heng's presence, who else did we know? ”
A series of questions made Cheng Yanjin's eyes darken.
Before he could answer, he saw Qin Qiong turn around twice, and said to himself:
"No, there is such a big thing in the capital, how can I say that I am also a general of Zuo Wuwei......"
"I don't have any real jobs, but I should go over and have a look, right?"
"Yes, yes, yes, we have to go quickly!"
Qin Qiong said and prepared to go out.
Cheng Yanjin hurriedly pulled him down:
"What are you doing here?"
"At that time, the old man, Lu Heng and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince were all present, and fortunately, the old man wanted to go to the town for them, otherwise it was not certain whether Lu Heng alone could bring His Royal Highness the Crown Prince out safely."
"Now because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in danger, His Majesty has been furious."
"There are too many strange things in this case, Your Majesty instructed me to handle the case, and the limit is ten days......"
"But I know how to investigate cases!"
Qin Qiong, who was already preparing to leave for the fire, was stunned.
He glanced back at Cheng Yanjin in disbelief-
What did Your Majesty think, and actually let this Cheng Laohei investigate the case?!
Half a day.
Qin Qiong took two steps back, already understanding.
He glanced at Cheng Yanjin, who was anxious and white-faced:
"What are you doing here? Let's go find a pharmacist together. ”
"It's not enough to look for him, let's find everything you can find and ask, as long as it's not a person with five surnames and seven hopes, our old guys still have a little brain."
It's late afternoon.
At the gate of the mansion of Li Jing, the acting prince of the country, there were a bunch of people standing.
At this time, throwing a brick into the crowd can kill a grandfather.
The porter was stunned.
People, he basically knows them all.
But the question is...... What happened today to make so many bigwigs come to their doors?!
Is the sky falling?
Cheng Biting Jin waved his hand at the gatehouse:
"Hurry up and report to your master, just say that Lao Cheng came to ask him about something."
After a short period of stunnedness, the porter was a little embarrassed and said:
"My lord said a long time ago that he would not see guests today......"
"The small one is just a mere gatehouse, and I can't persuade it, so don't be embarrassed about the small one."
Cheng Yanjin glanced back.
He looked at Qin Qiong, eldest grandson Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Li Daozong and others behind him.
If it weren't for the fact that many of his old men had already left Beijing to take up local posts, he would have brought a dozen or twenty people with him today.
If it weren't for that, Cheng Yanjin would not have been able to call those Wenchen.
"What's his business with today?"
Li Daozong was a little suspicious:
"Don't you want to see Lao Cheng, and don't want to see me? I'm not like this old bastard. ”
"Otherwise, you might as well go in and pass it on."
Cheng bites the gold and doesn't fight in one place.
He glared at Li Daozong, and immediately raised his hand to pull the concierge open, ready to enter the mansion directly!
But at this moment, the door of the mansion suddenly opened by itself.
Zhang Hongfu stood at the door and smiled at everyone:
"Why are the brothers so angry, are these subordinates too rude?"
The moment she spoke, not only Cheng Yanjin, but everyone present shivered silently.
Mrs. Li Jing's prestige, they have all heard of it for a long time, and they have even dealt with it a lot.
I can't mess with it, I really can't mess with it!
Everyone took a step back in unison, and Cheng Yanjin was a little stunned.
He didn't dare to open the door anymore, and his voice lowered:
"Sister-in-law, we really have an urgent matter to find a pharmacist today, otherwise we wouldn't be so rude."
"Just let us in!"
Zhang Hongfu smiled, didn't say good, didn't say bad.
The scene froze for a while.
But it didn't take long for everyone to see two people coming out of the mansion.
One is Li Jing.
The other was actually the one who testified for Lu Heng in the early dynasty......
Bearded guest!
"His grandmother's bear's ......"
"That's why Pharmacist Li didn't see us because of this?"
Cheng Yanjin was shocked.
In front of him, Li Jing sent Zhang Zhongjian to the door.
As if he was ignoring this group of old fellows, he took care of Zhang Zhongjian and sent Zhang Zhongjian into the carriage.
Then, he turned his head to look at the crowd.
"Now, we can go in and talk about it."
