Royal study.

The emperor had just left the early court, and he did not approve a few papers behind the desk. He heard that the eunuch said that there was often a waiter outside the door to see him.

"Come in." The emperor held the vermilion pen without lifting it.

Master Jian cried and knelt outside the door and crawled to the emperor, "Your Majesty, I beg you to be the master for this humble minister!"

The emperor frowned, put down the vermilion pen, and felt a headache, "If you have something to say, what does it sound like a dignified fourth-rank official is crying?"

Master Jian cried for a while, "Yes, please forgive me, Your Majesty."

"Say."

"Your Majesty, you know that the son-in-law of the Dingguo family was originally the successor of our Jian family. He was brutally beaten by some black heart yesterday, and he hung up at the gate of Chang'an for a whole night. He was released at noon today." Come down!"

Master Jian said with a mournful face: "Originally, Master Hou should have asked the emperor for justice, but Master Hou... he disliked my son and asked people to send Jian Ji back to Jian's mansion, but he didn't recognize this child."

"Oh?" The emperor raised his eyes, with a bit of interest in them, "Is there such a thing?"

"Everything I said is true."

"Cao Desheng?" the emperor shouted.

"Return to Your Majesty, Eunuch Cao went out to play with the crown prince this morning." A eunuch replied.

Only then did the emperor remember what he promised the prince not long ago, rubbed his fingers and sighed: "I'm getting old, I can't remember things."

"You go and ask today's garrison to come over and ask questions." The emperor was in a good mood, and just took it as an interesting story to rest his mind.

Not long after, a hundred households guarding the city of Chang'an entered the hall and reported to the emperor what had happened in the morning.

"Today's incident was discovered by the stall owner who set up a stall nearby. He hung Master Jian and the other two on the city wall, leaving only part of his underwear to cover his body." Baihu said calmly, "One of them has seven men and eight women written on their bodies. , and the other person wrote on behalf of the heavens, and Young Master Dujian hung in the middle with small characters written and arrows pointing to...that place."

"Pfft." The little eunuch in front of the emperor couldn't help laughing, and immediately knelt down and begged for mercy.

"Get up." The emperor waved his hand, held back his smile, and asked, "Chang'an City is guarded day and night, and you didn't know what happened last night?"

The hundred households knelt down and said sincerely: "Your Majesty, forgive me, no one noticed anything unusual, and although the three people were hung on the wall, they had no external injuries. Master Jane and the others have done bad things, that man wants to teach them a lesson, "

"Yes, yes." The emperor asked coldly, "Jian Qing's family, you only accuse someone of hanging Jian Ji on the top of the wall, how do you explain the bullying men and women written on them?"

"This..." Master Jian rolled his eyes, knelt down and said, "Jian Ji has always been raised by General Jian's side, and has developed an arrogant temper to do wrong things. It's just that he is my wife's own flesh and blood that fell from my wife. Chang'an City is high and cold, and the spring is cold, although it will not fall, if the wind and cold enter the body, it will kill people!"

Master Jian started to cry again, "Jian Ji has always been in poor health, what happened to me, how can I live!"

Baihu looked at his pretending face, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he thought to himself that Mr. Jian is really clean, a good father who loves his children, the fault is others' fault.

The emperor stroked his fingers and said in a low voice: "You are right. Even if your son does something wrong, he will be punished by the government. If everyone follows suit, what is the difference between the Chang'an city wall and the pork shop on the street?"

Baihu suppressed his smile and said, "Your Majesty is right."

Hearing that the emperor compared his son to pork, Master Jian didn't dare to refute, only dared to say yes.

"Marquis Dingguo, I remember being your concubine's younger brother?" the emperor asked.

"Yes."

"Well, he was a soldier all his life, an iron-blooded man, and he has no female relatives in his family. How can he raise his children. Since he sent Jian Ji back, then go back." The emperor said, "If you love your child, take it back and raise it well, but Don’t ask people to hang it on the city wall, and lose face to your family.”

Cold sweat ran down Master Jian's forehead. The emperor was warning him that Jian Ji's matter would embarrass Ding Guohou, and it would be okay to send the child back. He opened his mouth and had no choice but to agree.

"Let Dali Temple cooperate with the imperial guards to investigate, where did the masters come from, and hang three living men on the city wall without anyone noticing." The emperor rubbed his hands and said with a smile, "If you find out, bring them to me. "

"Yes."

Master Jane walked out of the palace gate dejectedly.

"Master, how are you?" Mrs. Jane came up to her.

Master Jian shook his head, and told the emperor that Jian Ji had been thrown into the Dingguo Mansion and asked him to return to his family.

"Hiss—our family, you can point to the signboard of Dingguo Mansion to get money!" Mrs. Jian stared, and said angrily, "What a jane, wait, I'll go find the empress right now."

"Is it useful for you to find your wife?"

Mrs. Jian smiled, and said in a low voice: "I have prepared 5000 taels of silver. Your Majesty has been short of silver all the time. I ask her to speak nice words in front of His Majesty."

"Jian Rong is getting old, so she can't live without her children. This matter can be handled." Mrs. Jian patted Master Jian's chest, "Look at me."

The emperor ordered a thorough investigation, and Dali Temple acted immediately, leading people to investigate what Jian Ji did yesterday and who he had dealings with.

"Yesterday, I played mahjong with my friends at Liu's Tourist Hall, played billiards for another hour, went out to Xinghualou to drink, and then... went to the lakeside to see the scenery. It was already night, and I was arrested. "Jian Ji lay on the bed, breathless as if he was seriously ill.

Dali Sizheng told him to press his fingerprints on the paper, then turned around and led someone to another victim, and he really said the same thing.

"There is another person. This person is quite strange. I saw him holding a statement of guilt at the entrance of the vegetable market this morning, saying that it was requested by the ghost yesterday." Another temple was holding the pleading paper and said with a smile, "This ghost is interesting."

"What does this person say?"

"He said that after playing in Liu's Tourist Hall yesterday, Jian Ji saw a beautiful pair of children, and followed him, but was spotted by his husband and told him to go back. He was upset, and the three of them went to drink and were followed. Something happened." Sizheng clicked on the word "husband-in-law" and said with a smile, "It looks like retribution."

Another temple shook his head and said, "That person is in the Liu's swimming pool?"

"This person explained that Young Master Jian thought that this person was a scholar who went to Beijing to rush for the exam and lived in the Liu Family Pavilion. There are very few twins in this world, so let's go to the Liu Family Pavilion to find out." Si Zheng said.

"Okay, let's go quietly. Liu's Tourist Hall opens today. I have played in it a few times. The business is good. Don't ruin their business because of the investigation." Si Zheng said.

"That's what I meant."

If you can't smell it, you jump into the window, only to see Wen Bucheng sitting behind the table, with tea in one hand and a book in the other.

"Where's my wife?" She asked while brushing her hair.

Wen Bucheng turned a page and said softly: "Miss Li is here, and Miss Zhou told him to go to the box on the third floor."

He nodded if he didn't smell it, turned around and went downstairs, and found the servant of Liu's family at the door on the third floor.

"You bring the snacks I bought to Jin'er." He took out the kraft paper from his arms and asked her to send it in.

Li Xin ran over and said in a panic: "Boss, you are here, it's not good, there are two Dali Temples looking for you!"

"Shhh, keep your voice down." He glanced at the tightly closed private room before smelling it, and dragged Li Xin away from the door, "Why panic, take the two of them to my office on the fifth floor."

"Yes."

However, the two Sizhengs were taken aback by the overwhelming atmosphere as soon as they entered the gate of the pavilion.Before he could stand still, the guy with a bright smile came up to him and introduced the activities in the store with a leaflet.

"No hurry, the two of us have something to ask you." Si Zheng said.

"You said." The man said enthusiastically. "As long as I know."

Sizheng asked in a low voice: "Are there a young couple living in your store, and both of them have good looks. By the way, this wife is a couple."

"Shuang'er?" The man stared round his eyes, "Is it the good-looking Shuang'er?"

"Correct."

"Both couples look good?"

"Yes."

"Isn't that our boss?" The man smirked. "In terms of good looks, I have never seen anyone who is more beautiful than our two bosses!"

"Huh?" The two temples looked at each other.

"What's the name of your boss?"

"You don't know about our boss? Wu Quxing, who was proclaimed by the Holy Majesty, once killed a bandit in a village by himself!"

The two temples looked at each other again and nodded.Good looks, high martial arts, this Jian Ji case, the murderer who but you!

"It's not me?"

If he didn't smell it, he blinked his clear eyes and looked innocently at the two priests.

"You guys are mistaken, I have a gap with that... young master Ding Guohou, but it is not enough to hang people on the city wall!" Can't smell the candlelight in the almond eyes, and the handsome face is full of tears. Smiling, "He is the son of the Marquis of Dingguo. There are so many people in my family waiting for me to send money to eat. How can I make the Marquis unhappy by doing such a thing?"

Before a stick of incense.

When the two temples were being brought in front of Wen Bujiu, they were really shocked by Wen Bujiu's appearance and temperament.

This kind of demeanor is simply like a noble son cultivated by the big family in the capital, not like a person who wields swords and guns when he disagrees with each other.

However, if the case can be settled based on appearance and bearing alone, then Dali Temple simply changed to a face-to-face stand and the matter is over.

"Master Wen, do you have evidence?" Si Zheng asked.

"Evidence?" Hearing it, he turned his head and leaned on the stool to recall, "Yesterday, my wife and I went to eat delicious food in the capital. I was followed by three villains, Jian Ji, and I told them. Someone should have heard it at that time. Very angry."

"But it was also at that time that I knew that he was the young master of Marquis Ding. As for me, a commoner, I have no power and power, so I dare not bully him." Hearing that, I sneered, "But I really want to beat him up."

"Cough." The two temples were covering their mouths and clearing their throats.

"After talking about Jian Ji, my wife and I went to meet my brother for dinner. After dinner, my brother went home to study, and Jin'er and I went back to the hotel to explain the opening of the hotel, and then went home. You can find the customers who were in the store at that time , the street vendor on the road asked, I don't have time to follow Jian Ji."

"In that case, wait for the two of us to investigate and then make a conclusion." Si Zheng asked him to press his fingerprints on the confession, looking at it with an upright face.

Put down the pen and said with a smile: "Although I don't know who did it, but I am very grateful to him for getting rid of this anger for me. When the two adults catch him, I have to give him a pennant and exempt him from going to the museum for a year." cost!"

The two monasteries gradually believed in the unsatisfactory rhetoric, and with helplessness on their faces, they bid him farewell.

"My lords, walk slowly, come to the museum often when you have free time, let's make friends." He smiled and said.

As soon as the two of them left, they lowered their eyes and pressed their cheeks expressionlessly.

Wen Bucheng came out of the inner room, and asked softly with his hands behind his back: "Continue?"

If you can't smell it, you sneer, "It's getting dark, of course continue."

"The scenery in Chang'an is infinitely beautiful. If you don't appreciate it for a few days, you will waste this great spring scenery."
