Chapter 404: What He Wants Is Not Anyone's Life (Two Watches in One Asking for a Monthly Pass)

Lin Yunyan took a breath.

That's true.

There is a lot of danger in the fire, if that person wants to kill Li Shao, just put him by the fire.

In the tragedy of a large hall, Li Shao died in the second room, even if the position was strange, it would be judged that the child was panicked and fell.

But Li Shao didn't have anything to do.

"If you don't want Li Shao's life, do you just want to attack the first queen?" Lin Yunyan questioned, and as soon as the words came out, she shook her head, "If I were him, I would have the drug in my hand that stunned Gonggong Cai, and I would also stun Li Shao, and then go in the east room to light a fire to ensure that nothing goes wrong...... Hey? ”

Speaking of which, she felt even more wrong.

"If he wants to kill the first queen, he has to ensure that the people in the east will not be woken up by the fire," Lin Yunyan frowned, and when she thought of something, she said it, so that she could sort out her thoughts and give Xu Jian some aura, "Could it be that he knows that there is a sleeping incense in it?" He first stunned the people in the east room, and then came out to attack the people in the east room?

Don't let Li Shao call because you don't want my mother to hear it?

Then he should go to the east to light the fire for a while, instead of making Li Shao overturn the oil lamp......"

It's weird.

The more I pondered it, the more I felt that there was something that made sense.

Is it because they haven't grasped the original state of the matter, or are the monkey-faced eunuchs who act at all and set fires as they please, but they are deeply disturbed and want to find a reasonable idea for each other here?

Thinking like this, Lin Yunyan couldn't help but shake her head with tears and laughter.

If in the end they think too much, that's really ......

"Is it also a kind of 'show talent meets soldiers'?" Lin Yunyan laughed at herself, "We treat him as a scholar, but in fact, that monkey-faced eunuch is a ruffian?" ”

After speaking, she heard Xu Jian beside her also laugh.

A little helpless, and a little powerless, but after laughing, the two of them combed up from the beginning.

If you want to find answers to old things, you are not afraid to think too much, but you are afraid that you will not think thoroughly enough.

Xu Jian picked up the teapot and added tea to Lin Yunyan, and motioned for her to moisten her throat.

He took a sip of his own tea, his eyebrows lowered, and he looked calm and peaceful under the oil light.

Lin Yunyan held the teacup in both hands and looked at Xu Jian fixedly.

She couldn't take her eyes off, she knew very well that it was Xu Jian's steadiness that made her gaze momentary.

has been getting along for a long time, and Lin Yunyan also knows Xu Jian's temperament.

This person is really cold when he is cold, and the weirdness of yin and yang can make the entire Jinluan Hall want to laugh but dare not laugh, and hold back, but aside from those external appearances, Xu Jian's heart is calm and upright.

It comes from the teachings of the old grandfather for many years, and also from the hardships he has suffered since he was a child and has practiced martial arts day after day.

The perseverance in his heart makes Xu Jian able to quickly put away his panic and get on the right track when he encounters an accident.

This kind of resolute character not only created Xu Jian, but also deeply affected Lin Yunyan, which would make her involuntarily believe that no matter how many hardships and fogs there are, as long as they are with Xu Jian, the two of them can overcome obstacles.

With Xu Jian by his side, so much unprepared and puzzled news tonight doesn't seem to be so messy.

"What we are thinking about now, not only will we think, but also my father-in-law and the saint will think about it later," Xu Jian put down the teacup slowly and methodically, and his tone was calm, "I was just in the imperial study, and the time was still too tight, and I had some ideas, but they were not thoughtful.

When the saint thinks about it in his spare time, he will naturally think of these things, listen to them more, discuss more, even if it is three stinkers, he can gain a lot.

In the past, the saint and his father-in-law did not think of this, but they didn't know that the fire started in the east and they all thought that it was burning in the east and the east, and people were stunned by the smoke in their sleep, until the mother-in-law rushed over and was only enough to pick up the young Li Shao......"

Lin Yunyan bowed.

How else do you say that clues matter?

Even the slightest clue can change the final answer, let alone such a critical message as the ignition point in a fire.

Originally, it would not be so difficult to judge the location of the fire in the fire, but the bad was that two barrels of lamp oil were stored in the ear chamber, although they did not explode, but they also made the fire burn more and more, and the scene was a mess.

It is also because of these two barrels of oil, whether it is accepted as an accident by the father or believed to be a murder by the saint, it is determined that the fire started in the east.

Until tonight, this was overturned by Li Shao's testimony.

Many of the previous judgments will also be changed.

"Judging from the previous judgment," Lin Yunyan dipped her fingers in some water, drew a few strokes on the table, and only divided the middle room, the east room, and the east room, "Mother went all the way to the east, through the second room to the second room."

The fire starts in a short time, and this is the most dangerous place.

She picked up Li Shao, who was already unconscious, and took advantage of the fact that the fire did not block the way, and returned the same way, from the east room to the middle room, and then out of the palace gate, and then put the person down and returned to the fire.

And this time, the fire inside was even bigger, and Mama Liao chose to open the window, but failed, and her mother and the former queen also missed the opportunity to get out. ”

Xu Jian looked at the desktop and said, "My father-in-law mentioned some things to me, but I didn't say it in such detail, and I won't know until I read the case file tomorrow, but it just sounds like your idea makes sense." ”

Lin Yunyan responded softly, putting aside the speculation based on the fire in the east: "Now, it's time to think about what my mother did when the fire broke out in the east." ”

In other words, when his mother rescued Li Shao, Li Shao's exact location.

She thought so, so she asked Xu Jian.

Xu Jian pondered for a moment and said, "The middle room or the east room." ”

Lin Yunyan listened carefully to his explanation.

"The saint mentioned that the novice who was guarding Li Shao said that the windows were closed, and the mother-in-law rushed out of the temple door with Li Shao in her arms, and then went back," Xu Jian's finger pointed on the table, and said, "I found someone in the middle room, and I took it out directly, and there is no doubt about doing so."

In the east of the fire, this place burned first, and the fire was the largest, and the mother-in-law picked up Li Shao and turned her head directly and ran out through the safe middle room, which also made sense.

When in distress, choose the nearest exit, human nature.

If she had made the opposite choice and rushed into the eastern room, and saw the dizzy queens and grandmothers inside, would she have turned around and walked through the eastern room? ”

"No," Lin Yunyan said immediately, throwing herself into that scene, and the answer was not difficult to come out, "If I were her, I would directly open the window and throw Li Shao out of the window, and then drag the others."

At that time, running out from the east time room, where the fire was the largest, was simply seeking the near and far.

In the same way, the place where the mother found Li Shao will not be in the east.

Only when Li Shao is in the east room or the middle room, his mother will choose to carry him out from the door for the first time. ”

Xu Jian agreed: "For the first time, my mother-in-law did not enter the East Room, she found Li Shao first and rescued people in a hurry.

When she returned, she passed through the east room in the fire, maybe she called out to Grandpa Cai, or she couldn't care about it, and entered a little room, and the smoke was billowing inside.

Xu is sleeping incense, Xu is inhaling smoke, or the two overlap, the first queen and they are either unconscious or chaotic, the mother-in-law tries her best to wake them up, Mama Liao goes to open the window, and the mother-in-law holds the first queen......"

The image of that night became vivid in my mind.

The smoke seemed to have passed through time and swept in, so that Lin Yunyan subconsciously reached out to cover her mouth and nose.

Xu Jian saw it in his eyes, moved the chair, leaned over, and hugged Lin Yunyan's shoulder.

That's the pain.

No amount of gags can divert the mind, but it can only ease the moment, and when the mind is refocused here, the wound will still be painful.

If you are weak, you probably don't want to think about it, try to let it go, and leave it to someone who can be competent and trustworthy to find the answer, so as not to be unable to survive and fall down before the truth is revealed.

This kind of "giving up" is also a good choice.

But Xu Jian would not persuade Lin Yunyan so much, and would not take care of it for her, because she could bear it and was more willing to bear it.

The little lord seems to be delicate, but in fact he is tough.

And if the wound wants to heal completely, it has to cut off the carrion and usher in a new life.

"I just wanted to tell you in the imperial study," Xu Jian's voice was still calm, like a whisper, not intense, but it could calm people's hearts, "That sleeping incense was an 'accident', we didn't expect it, and Saint Shangyuan didn't think about it."

Thinking of this today, his guilt towards the former queen will be even deeper, and this emotion will continue to spread to Li Shao.

It doesn't seem like it's good for us, but it's a gamble that we can die and survive.

Only by figuring out all the truths and closing the coffin of good and bad can the victims really move forward.

So you are, so is the Holy One. ”

While speaking, Xu Jian held Lin Yunyan's hand and stroked the back of her hand, not letting her block her breathing.

"I'm fine," Lin Yunyan smiled at Xu Jian, "Now that I've thought about the situation that night, I can continue to judge." The monkey-faced eunuch's actions didn't look like he wanted Li Shao's life, nor did he want the life of the first queen. ”

The former Li Shao will not have all the beards and tails, and the latter should set fire to the east a little later.

The question swirled in their minds, and the two of them didn't speak for a long time, racking their brains to find some clues or a glimmer of inspiration in the known clues.

Unfortunately, the aura is not that easy.

Xu Jian patted Lin Yunyan's shoulder and said, "It's not early, if you don't blow the lamp and rest, you will have to worry about it tomorrow when the Queen Mother knows." ”

"I'm afraid I can't sleep." Having said that, Lin Yunyan still went to bed and lay down.

Xu Jian blows the lamp.

The hall was dark, and suddenly lost her vision, and Lin Yunyan was not very comfortable.

It was just such a moment that a flash of inspiration flashed.

She hurriedly stood up, held the arm of Xu Jian, who was sitting down on the edge of the bed, and said, "We have been thinking about what happened that night in Dingguo Temple, and why, maybe we should change our thinking." ”

Xu Jian said in a low voice, "Huh? "Silence.

"You said in the imperial study that although you can't assert that the murderer of Dingguo Temple and the black hand who arranged the attack on the town are the same person, you tend to believe that they were both done by one person," Lin Yunyan said, "If you are the person behind it, that night you let people attack the town at the bottom of the mountain, would you want to set fire to Li Shao and the former queen again?" ”

Xu Jian was stunned.

He understood what Lin Yunyan was referring to "a different way of thinking".

Instead of focusing on Dingguo Temple, we will look at the situation of the town under attack.

This question was not difficult for Xu Jian, and he soon said directly: "Then it is better to have a few more assassin masters and directly kill the saint in the town!" ”

All the calculations were for the chair.

Facing the battle, only the sons of the first emperor can sit on the dragon chair.

Now that the Holy Lord has been involved in the crisis of that town, it is enough to take his life.

How can there be a reason not to kill the saint, but to move the first queen and Li Shao?

"Perhaps, I didn't expect the saint to come down the mountain at first, and there was a shortage of people in the town, so there was no way to get the target directly," Xu Jian paused, and his thoughts suddenly broadened, "It's true that the mountain can't prepare in advance, but the monkey-faced eunuch on the mountain can know if the saint is in the temple."

If his original goal was the Holy Lord, he also clearly knew that the Holy Mountain had gone down the mountain to suppress the bandits, and he could have given up setting the fire.

As soon as he put out this fire, he lost the opportunity to get rid of the saint up and down the mountain. ”

It is equivalent to meaninglessness.

No matter which angle you think about it, what this monkey-faced eunuch did was too strange.

Unless......

Xu Jian exhaled a breath and said in a deep voice: "Unless, his target is not the Holy Lord, not the first queen, and not Li Shao." ”

Lin Yunyan was stunned in her heart, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that this possibility was not impossible.

"Yes, the Holy Lord has always had no intention of taking the throne, even if that person doesn't believe it, he won't rush at the Holy as soon as he makes a move," Lin Yunyan pondered and said, "No, he believes in it, and he doesn't fight or grab it, so he doesn't want to kill the Holy ......."

"And the former Empress and Li Shao who were caught in the fire," Xu Jian sighed, "It seems that our previous thinking is not wrong. ”

"That eunuch didn't want Li Shao's life, and he didn't think about the life of the empress first," Lin Yunyan's voice trembled slightly, "He didn't think about who he wanted to kill at all."

In the final analysis, the fire was only part of the operation under the mountain, and it was very likely that the saint was transferred back to the mountain to rescue.

Yes.

The bandits attacking the town are fake, and those are not bandits, they are dead soldiers.

Once the saint stayed at the foot of the mountain and carefully investigated those thieves, maybe he would have seen through the means at that time, and there would be no follow-up of the princes to suppress the bandits and fight for merit, let alone expose the inside story and let Li Mi, who robbed the merit, be deposed......

Therefore, the saint must gather a large number of people to return to Dingguo Temple, and the black hand needs time to deal with the situation in the town to ensure that it will not be exposed.

It's just that the fire on the mountain is bigger than expected, and neither the Empress nor my mother escaped......"

With this sorting, many things became clear.

Lin Yunyan came from it with sadness, her throat choked, and her eyes were extremely sore.

"If you really want to kill someone, the drug is used on Cai's father-in-law, can he still get up and struggle to climb a little outside? Can that grandma almost escape to the bright room? She shook her head slowly, "It's impossible, they won't wake up at all."

They were able to move in the end, but the medicine was insufficient, and they fell asleep for a short time, and when the fire was burning, they woke up.

Even if they don't wake up, in the eunuch's expectation, people who haven't smelled the drug in the east will wake up, and the queen will run out first, and they will take Li Shao away, and also put Cai Gonggong and the grandmother out.

He wanted a fire that could be seen from the bottom of the mountain, not anyone's life......"

Thank you for the reward from the small courtyard of the book friend.
