Chapter 34 Lu Lao

In the early morning of the next day, the door of the Nine Dragons Pavilion had just opened, and Xuan Xi came to the pavilion accompanied by a small team of palace maids. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Do you remember what kind of dossier this palace wants you to look for?" Xuan Xi entered the pavilion, turned around and asked, looking at the palace maids.

Under the gaze of the palace maids, they should all be.

"Good!"

Xuan Xi nodded: "Since you have memorized everything, then let's spread out and look for it! Remember, once you find something, you must come and report it immediately." ”

The palace ladies responded again, and immediately dispersed.

Chen Jun, a scholar of Kowloon Pavilion, was strange, and didn't know what file Her Royal Highness the Princess had come to find, so he asked, "Princess, what are you ......?"

When Xuan Xi saw Chen Jun, his eyes suddenly lit up.

As a scholar of the Kowloon Pavilion, Chen Jun has been in charge of the Kowloon Pavilion for nearly 40 years, and he knows everything about the Kowloon Pavilion well, especially the huge files in the Pavilion, and the old man is even more familiar with it.

"Elder Ge, let me ask you something. ”

Xuan Xi looked at Chen Jun and said, "Do you know where the official silver robbery case files that have occurred in Qingzhou in the past twenty years are placed?"

"Qingzhou's official silver robbery?"

Chen Jun touched his beard and thought about it, and suddenly his cloudy old eyes were blazing, and he asked, "The princess said yes, but the official silver robbery that happened in Qingzhou twenty years ago?"

"Exactly. Xuan Xi nodded hurriedly, overjoyed.

Last night, when she was asleep, she suddenly received an urgent flying pigeon message from Chen Yutian, which detailed the time of the official silver robbery, which was about twenty years ago.

"Your Highness, come with me. ”

Chen Jun said, and led Xuan Xi to a bookshelf near the corner of the Nine Dragon Pavilion.

"The official bank robbery of twenty years ago...... Twenty years ago, the official bank robbery ......"

Chen Jun muttered, one finger swiping in front of the bookshelf.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he reached out and pulled out a thick dossier from it: "Found it! Your Highness, take a look, but this?"

Xuan Xi took the dossier, only to see a few large characters with silver hooks and iron paintings written on the gray cover.

Qingzhou Guanyin case

Looking at the time marked inside, it was exactly twenty years ago.

"Not bad!"

Xuan Xi was overjoyed, and his eyes were full of excitement: "Elder Ge, thank you so much!"

And at the same time that Xuan Xi led the palace maids to search for the dossier in the Nine Dragon Pavilion, the officials also welcomed an important guest.

This person is dressed as a military attachΓ©, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and is awe-inspiring, and he is Xuan Ye's personal guard, Puyang Mausoleum.

"The emperor has an order to transfer the treasury file of Fang Meng, the servant of the Criminal Department. ”

Puyang Mausoleum, as always, cherished words like gold, and after reading the emperor's will, he quietly nailed it to the ground like a javelin and stopped talking.

The official department Shangshu immediately ordered someone to retrieve the treasury file, and after a while, Puyang left with the warehouse file Pegasus.

......

......

The investigation in the capital is ongoing, and the investigation in Hakuyama County is also continuing.

It's already the middle of the day, and Baishan County is bustling and lively.

A fast horse galloped over, and the person on the horse was Zhang Yi, the head catcher of Baishan County, and after a while, he was already in the second hall of the county government.

"My lord, the matter you ordered has been clarified. ”

Zhang Yi stood in the second hall and bowed to Chen Yutian and Bai Fan, who were sitting in front.

Bai Fan nodded: "Say." ”

"I carefully investigated the villagers who lived in the villages near the Guanyin Temple, and it was true that many of the villagers had seen the ghost temple while walking at night, and said that they had seen a messenger from hell wandering around the temple. Villagers from several nearby villages said so. ”

Chen Yutian nodded: "That's really the case." ”

Bai Fan immediately looked at Zhang Yi with a tired look, and asked him to go down to rest.

Zhang Yi left in response.

After Zhang Yi left, Bai Fan couldn't help but ask Chen Yutian: "Brother Chen, why did you order Zhang Yi to investigate this matter in my name?"

He was confused, and Chen Yutian's arrangements for the past two days became more and more incomprehensible to him......

Chen Yutian smiled and said lightly: "Brother Bai, do you remember what we said about staying in the ghost temple on a rainy night?"

Bai Fan nodded: "Of course I remember." ”

The three of Chen Yutian had said this many times, and he didn't believe it at first, until Chen Yutian cracked the mechanism of the Guanyin Temple, and he didn't believe it.

"That night, we strayed into the ghost temple due to the rainstorm, and afterwards I have been thinking, we strayed into the ghost temple on the night of the rainstorm and saw the heavenly punishment sculpture, is this really just a coincidence?"

He said slowly.

"After that, I saw through the mechanism of the Guanyin Temple, and finally figured out that it should not be a coincidence, so I asked you to order Zhang Yi to conduct this investigation in detail. ”

"What do you mean......"

Bai Fan suddenly realized, "That ghost temple, will it appear every night?"

"Not bad!"

Chen Yutian nodded, "According to Zhang Yi's statement, the ghost temple should appear every night, so it will be seen by so many villagers who walk at night." ”

"But, why is that?" Bai Fan was puzzled.

"I think it should be deliberately let the villagers see it!" Chen Yutian said lightly.

"Deliberately?" Bai Fan was surprised.

"Yes!

Chen Yutian nodded slowly, and then said: "I think, in that ghost temple, there should be people left behind every night, these people are dressed in black, wearing ghost faces, dressed as messengers from the underworld, wandering around this ghost temple, deliberately letting the villagers who walk at night see that it is indeed a ghost temple." Because, if you go there during the day the next day, you can only see one Guanyin temple. ”

"In this way, the villagers who saw it naturally believed that what they saw last night was all haunted by ghosts, and they were convinced of it......

"I see!"

Bai Fan slapped his thigh and suddenly realized, but immediately, his eyes showed confusion, "But I still don't understand a little, why did Zhu Zheng do this?"

"Oh, Brother Bai, how do you know that this is Zhu Zheng's doing?" Chen Yutian laughed.

Brother Chen smiled. ”

Bai Fan also said with a smile: "The Guanyin Temple was repaired by Zhu Zheng, and the craftsmen used in the repair were all from him alone, so this ghost temple was built by him, right?"

Chen Yutian nodded slightly.

"And Tianying had seen a ghost-faced person coming in and out of Zhujiazhuang before, so this ghost-faced person pretending to be a messenger from the underworld should also be from Zhujiazhuang, so that Zhuzheng must have nothing to do with this matter. ”

Chen Yutian smiled and nodded: "Brother Bai's analysis is extremely correct. I also feel that this Zhu Zheng has nothing to do with this case, but there is no evidence in my hand to prove it. This man is really well hidden. ”

"Speaking of evidence......"

Bai Fan suddenly changed his words and said, "Our judgment on Li Xian's case is not supported by any evidence......

"Speaking of the case......"

Chen Yutian's eyes suddenly flashed, "Didn't you send someone to the vicinity of Li's house to inquire about the news from those neighbors?

"Alas......"

Bai Fan sighed and shook his head slightly: "It's okay not to mention this matter, although there is a lot of news from inquiring, none of it is useful." ”

"Oh?"

"There is only one that is still valuable, but at most it is half a clue. ”

"Oh, half a clue?"

"Exactly!" Bai Fan nodded.

Chen Yutian became even more curious, and said, "How do you say this?"

"There is an elder who claims that Li Xian used to associate with a man named 'Wan San' 20 years ago, and the two were very close to each other. However, the old man only knew that the man's name was Wansan, but he didn't know what his real name was, so how can we find out. Bai Fan spoke, a little depressed.

Chen Yutian also smiled bitterly, just by a false name, there is really no way to check it.

"Mansan ......"

Chen Yutian muttered, this ten thousand three, where is it sacred?

......

......

Xuandu, in an ordinary courtyard, a white-haired old man wearing a hat is quietly tending to a few flowers.

These flowers are bright and beautiful, delicate and lovely, and the flowers bloom and exude bursts of fragrance.

The old man watered the flowers very carefully, and his eyes were serious and extremely bright.

He is the old man who is good at making jewelry in the mouth of Lu Lao, Chen Yutian and Xuan Xi.

At this moment, it is almost winter, but the flowers in this courtyard are in full bloom as always, which shows that this old man also has a lot of internal strength.

"Grandpa Lu, I've come to see you. ”

Xuan Xi jumped into the courtyard and shouted loudly.

Lu Lao glanced back and said with a kind smile: "You girl, didn't you go out to do errands, why did you come back?"

However, the old man just glanced at Xuan Xi and was stunned for a moment.

Because, on Xuan Xi's head, there is a silver hairpin.

The silver hairpin was the relic of the Qian family that Chen Yutian picked up at the scene of the Qian family's murder, but at this moment, Xuan Xi inserted it in his hair.

This thing was originally said by Xuan Xi that it was made by Lu Lao, so Lu Lao immediately recognized it when he saw it.

"Girl, that hairpin ......" Lu Lao said, surprised.

Xuan Xi's eyes flashed, his big eyes turned slyly, and then he smiled lightly: "Old man, you recognize it......"

As he spoke, he took off the silver hairpin and handed it to the old man.

"How could it not be recognized?"

Lu Lao took the silver hairpin and smiled slightly: "This silver hairpin is the old man's wedding gift to Ruoyun's girl, and there is only one in the world." Look, isn't there a little 'willow' character here......"

Lu Lao pointed to a place where the patterns of the silver hairpin were intertwined.

Xuan Xi looked at it curiously, and saw that the patterns on it were staggered, faintly forming the appearance of the word "willow".

"Really...... That's too clever, isn't it...... If it weren't for your grandfather's reminder in advance, it would be really hard for me to see that this is a 'willow' character. Xuan Xi exclaimed.

"Of course......"

The old man smiled proudly, and suddenly changed his words, and became suspicious: "By the way, how can this thing be in the hands of your girl, have you seen Ruoyun girl?"

Xuan Xi was a little embarrassed, listening to Lu Lao's tone, he had a very good relationship with the Qian family, the lord of the silver hairpin, and she didn't know how to speak about the bad news of the Qian family's death.

However, thinking of the three tasks assigned by Chen Yutian before leaving, she had to speak again.

For a moment, she felt extremely entangled.
