Tang Dynasty detective

The mountain wind gradually picked up.

Wei Luo took off his ragged coat and false beard, feeling relaxed and at ease, looking much younger than before.He traveled to Datang at the age of 16, and went to Chang'an with Liao Kaizhi to be his staff. At the age of 19, he presided over Si Tiantai and served as Si Tianjian. The journey was full of ups and downs, with many difficulties and dangers. Now, he is only 26 years old.

When Wei Luo first arrived at Shuangxi Mountain, in order to arouse unnecessary suspicion, Chief Qing asked him to disguise himself, and no one had seen his true face.Later, when he arrived in Chang'an, he kept growing a beard and worrying all the time, making him look much older than his actual age. He lied about being in his thirties, but no one ever doubted him.

Companion to a monarch is like companion to a tiger, besides, there are fierce tigers and wolves in the court today, Wei Luo presides over Si Tiantai, he acts cautiously and dare not make the slightest mistake.Before leaving Chang'an, Chief Qing told him that if he encountered a difficult problem and couldn't decide, he would return to Shuangxi Temple to discuss it.In the vast night, Wei Luo walked into the secret passage of Sitiantai cliff, crossed Taibai Mountain, entered Shuangxi Mountain, returned to Shuangxi Temple, and then returned to Chang'an with a good life-saving policy related to the fate of the court and the country.

In recent years, the court situation has become more and more turbulent, and Wei Luo has to go back and forth to Shuangxi Temple almost every month.In the eyes of the outside world, Wei Luo is an immortal Wei who predicts things like a god. Don't you know that most of the advice at critical moments comes from Chief Qing.The Taoist priest doesn't leave the mountain all year round, but he sees it more thoroughly than the people outside the mountain.

Wei Luo used some tea and rice.

He let out a long sigh of relief, unloading the exhaustion of many years, "Master, I want to find them tomorrow."

Qing has a long beard, "It's not the time yet, so don't be impatient. Since you already know that they are watching the hills, there is no need to be impatient. If you act rashly at this time, if you are caught by someone with a heart, you will definitely cause trouble."

Wei Luo: "Master, don't I have to go back to court in the future?" He didn't want to go to Chang'an, but the first chief Qing asked him to go down the mountain to do divination. After leaving the Sitianjian, Qing Daochang once said that this is his fate, and it is also the fate of Datang. Since it is destined, he can only look forward.

Now that the young prisoner has been executed, it stands to reason that there is no chance for Wei Luo to return to court. He can put the blame on the young prisoner, and give the young prisoner an accusation of conspiracy to kill.

Chief Qing said thoughtfully, "You don't have to go back to court. If it's true as you said, Emperor Dezong Li Shi will drive the crane west. If you go back at this time, you will do a lot of harm but no benefit. He has nothing to do with you." The kindness of knowing you, you have assisted him for seven or eight years, you have worked hard and never changed your mind, your chance has already come to an end, so you don't have to force it anymore."

Wei Luo sighed, "I'm afraid the emperor will still look for me, but he still doesn't give up."

Qing Daochang picked the wick, was silent for a moment, and said: "He is looking for you now, and he can't wait to hear you tell him who is the most suitable to succeed him, otherwise, he would not have secretly contacted Guanlan College. These years He has never sent any errands to Feng Anran, otherwise, how could Feng Anran make money so leisurely? It seems that his health is about to fail."

Wei Luodao: "The emperor doesn't like the crown prince, but he can't hold back the destiny after all. Master, you are right, I will do a lot of harm if I go back. If I say that the crown prince will succeed, the emperor will definitely blame me. If I recommend other candidates, the crown prince will succeed." I must be the first one to be dealt with afterwards. But, master, how do you know that the emperor secretly contacted Guanlan?"

Chief Qing said: "The emperor is suspicious. Dali Temple said that you fell off a cliff, but he would not believe it. If you want to see people, you must see corpses. The emperor must have guessed it. Dali Temple does not want to find out your whereabouts, because there are people in the court who don't want to." You go back. He secretly assigned Guanlan Academy to find someone, which shows that he no longer trusts people in the court, and there is really no capable person around him."

Wei Luo: "It's not easy at high places, and it's not easy for the emperor."

Master Qing said: "He has been worrying about gains and losses in his life, and now that the general situation is about to go, he still hesitates and struggles."

Wei Luo said: "Based on this, I really can't show my face. If Feng Anran finds out that I'm in Shuangxi Temple, he will definitely come and arrest me."

Qing Yi lost his expression.

The master has no desires, is generous and kind, but when Feng Anran is mentioned, he will show displeasure. Wei Luo knows that he has made a slip of the tongue, so he doesn't say anything more.

The next day.

The master and the apprentice meditated and practiced in the audience.

The mountain gate moved slightly.

Qing Yi closed his eyes and meditated, as if he hadn't heard.

The voice was louder and more real. It was indeed someone knocking on the door.

Wei Luo wanted to get up to avoid it, but Qing Yi shook his whisk to signal him to stay calm.

The knock on the door rang for a while, then stopped.

After a while, it rang again.

Wei Luo was a little uneasy, Qing Yichang stood still, and said softly: "Practice."

Wei Luo: "Yes, Master."

Outside the mountain gate——

A dejected voice sounded, "Master Qing, have you traveled far away again? When you come back, you must help me uphold justice. Feng Anran is bullying people everywhere because of his wealth and wealth. This old man really can't swallow it .”

Mo Zhiqiu?

Wei Luo knew this man.At that time, before he went to Chang'an, Mo Zhiqiu came to the temple once, the first chief Qing said a few words to him across the mountain gate, but did not let him in.Qing Daochang said that this person is an autopsy, with a dirty and chaotic atmosphere, which will disturb the purity of the temple.

Mo Zhiqiu actually knew Feng Anran, Wei Luo thought to himself, maybe anyone who knew Feng Anran could not enter the mountain gate, but the ninth brother and the third brother also knew Feng Anran, would the master not let them in?

Qing Daochang turned a deaf ear, as if he hadn't heard, and continued to meditate quietly, but outside the mountain gate, Mo Zhiqiu didn't just leave, as if he was sitting outside the gate, talking to himself.

"Our Mojiazhuang is also a family tradition. Although we practice autopsy, which is also a business of upholding justice, but Feng Anran wants to oppose me everywhere. Let's talk about the case of Shuangxi Town this time. I didn't want to go out. He He insisted on begging me, but I reluctantly agreed to help him, thinking of my old friendship, but he thought my salary was too high. For such an important case, if I asked him to buy documents from Dali Temple, 200 taels of Guanlan would be considered high. ?”

Wei Luo swallowed, and offered a price of 200 taels for a gang. How is this different from taking advantage of the fire?

Mo Zhiqiu seemed to have drunk some wine, and continued to babble, "I gave him face to help him, but he actually said that I was taking advantage of the fire."

Wei Luo couldn't hold back and smiled.Carefully looked at the master, fortunately the master was not angry, he took a breath, forced himself to meditate, and cut off the endless chatter outside the door.

Mo Zhiqiu said: "Why did I take advantage of the fire to rob? I want 150 taels to pay a deposit in advance. What's the matter? Isn't the group of waste raised by him in Guanlan also take advantage of the fire to make black-hearted money all day long? Why doesn't he know how to reflect on himself? It's just 150 taels. I'm not happy at all." Mo Zhiqiu burped, "I'm not happy about paying the deposit, and I'm not happy about paying the final payment. It's been a few days since this case was closed, and I still haven't sent the final payment."

Three days, less than.

Mo Zhiqiu said: "I've tried my best to help him, but if he understands the slightest bit of favor, he should come to the door three times and knock nine times in person to send me the balance, right? He's lucky, these days, he doesn't even have a face-to-face meeting If I don’t fight, I will definitely blackmail my remaining 50 taels of silver. Old man, I will go to him today to ask for it back. I have to tear down his dilapidated archway, and tear it down for him."

Three bows and nine knocks, isn't that too exaggerated?

The master said that Feng Anran is an iron rooster, and this person also scolded Feng Anran for treating money as his life, but Wei Luo listened, why is Feng Anran so pitiful?

There must be something hateful about a poor person, probably Feng Anran is indeed hateful, or why would everyone scold him?If Feng Anran was really so stingy, would he detain Brother Ninth and the others? No wonder Brother Nine was so interested in finding Wei Luo?It must be that the money in hand is not enough to spend, and there is no way to coax the third brother to play.Ninth brother, he doesn't care about his wife when he sees his wife, and coaxes him like a baby every day, what the idiot and wife fans say is that he is right.

Mo Zhiqiu continued to mutter, "Master Qing, you judge, you said that Feng Anran, who treats money like his life, double-faced, corrupt, and shameless, why hasn't he been unlucky after so many years? He Feng Anran is bad, so many good children were fooled into the mountains by him, those children are so good, they are blinded by Feng Anran's coercion and temptation, and they don't know it, and they do their best to make money for him, it's pitiful!"

Listen, Wei Luo, could it be that Ninth Brother and the others were also deceived?

Mo Zhiqiu said: "Just talk about Zhang Yuqing, what a wonderful child, the grandson of the old general Zhang, with exactly the same facial features and eyes as the old general, I fell in love with him at first sight, and wanted to take him as a disciple and put my whole life on the line." I taught him all the unique skills, and I have said it many times, but I can't say anything, that child is too sincere, and he was blinded by lard."

Co-authored, robbing apprentices did not rob others, and settled a grudge.

Mo Zhiqiu said again: "A few days ago, I saw a good boy again. He has handsome features and fair skin, like a piece of jade, but he has a quick mind and is smarter than Zhang Yuqing. I like it, okay? It's easy to meet a good young man who can compare with Guanlan's trash, I want to accept him as an apprentice, and teach him all the knowledge I have learned in my life. Guess what, I was snatched away by that vicious person Feng Anran again."

This one is also quite pitiful. He wants to pass on his lifelong knowledge to others, but he can't even take in an apprentice.Hearing Mo Zhiqiu's voice, Wei Luo was about to cry. It would be quite spectacular to cry at such an age.

Mo Zhiqiu said: "Do you know how bad Feng Anran is? In order to rob this apprentice from me, he went so far as to get him up the mountain, and directly arranged him as a bronze-level judge, and even let his private who doesn't know where he came from The son circled around other people, trying his best to deceive with sweet words. That lazy, cheeky little bastard must be his illegitimate son, otherwise Feng Anran's bad temper would allow him to do everything in his power. Years? That little bastard really learned the essence of Feng Anran, he has a way of deceiving people, coaxing people around, yesterday I was drinking in the town, and he took people to the town to make robes, bastard, in broad daylight The eyes are almost staring into the bones of others, and I have no good intentions."

Wei Luo pondered carefully, and something seemed wrong.

The ones from Guanlan, the new ones, the handsome ones, the fair ones, the quick-witted ones, the ones who can go up the mountain, the ones who went to the town yesterday, the ones who bought robes for two, the ones who can stare at people in broad daylight and see what's going on in their bones... Wei Why does Luo sound more and more like the two masters of their family?

No, no, Wei Luo followed all the way yesterday, the two of them made robes together, and they didn't see the little bastard Mo Zhiqiu said.

It's really a coincidence that Brother Ninth's biggest pastime is buying clothes for his wife. Brother Ninth's daughter-in-law is so pretty, wearing new clothes will take away Brother Nine's soul.
