Defend the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 47 Start the show

"Grandpa Shijun, uncles, this matter is a long story, and as Cui Canjun said just now, it is intricate and intricate..."

After working so hard for so many days, and even staying up in fear for several nights, I can finally start to perform.Han Pingan bypassed Lin Shijun's case and walked in front of the crowd, full of vigor and cadence.

"Sanlang, grandpa is too old to stay up all night, let's get straight to the point."

Lin Shijun reminded with a smile, thinking that this child is going crazy and committing crimes again, it is hard to change nature.

Han Shimei pointed at her son and was about to scold her, but when Shijun looked at her again, she could only lower her arms in embarrassment.

"Ok."

Han Pingan was a little regretful that the opening remarks that had been prepared for so long were not needed, and he smiled awkwardly, and turned to look at Xu Haoran.

Xu Haoran had been prepared for a long time, and immediately leaned over and took out four portraits from the wooden box.

Yu Wangli tacitly picked up the hammer and nailed the portrait to the wall with iron nails.

"This painting is lifelike, and the brushwork is unprecedented, Saburo, who made this."

Lin Shijun was a gifted scholar who was admitted to Jinshi at the age of 21. He was proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and was immediately attracted by the four portraits that had just been put on the wall.

Han Pingan smiled secretly and knew that you would be curious. He walked over and found a portrait of himself, and proudly sent it to Lin Shijun.

"This technique is my own creation, but these portraits were made by Pantuo, a young painter in Yele City. He is extremely talented in painting, and the blue is better than the blue, which is better than my teacher, and these paintings of his help. I'm busy."

"You created it yourself?"

"Grandpa Shijun, I have created a lot of original things, and it's not like you don't know about them."

This child is not good at reading, but he is good at everything else, especially eating, drinking and playing.All kinds of whimsy, really amazing.

Lin Shijun had learned the lesson before, looked at the lifelike portrait and said: "Let's talk about the business first, if you have free time tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, please ask that little painter to help grandpa paint a picture."

"Okay, let's get down to business first."

Han Pingan glanced at Li Chengye, who was kneeling by the gate, and turned around to look around the crowd: "Everyone, Zong Zheng, Zong Zhu, Kang Canjun, Mr. Shi, let me say this first as a respect. If there are any deficiencies or mistakes, please criticize and correct them."

Li Chengye was kneeling at the entrance of the lobby, Qian Chonghou and Liu Sangen were arrested, and they were outside right now.

Things happened over there in Juncheng, but Kang Youling was not afraid.

Because Li Chengye knew nothing, and Qian Chonghou and Liu Sangen, who knew everything, were the most loyal and would definitely not confess him. The other Mifatai who knew everything had already died, so there was nothing to worry about.

He raised his head and asked unhappily: "Sanlang, what do you mean by that, and what does it have to do with me?"

"You'll find out later."

"No, you have to speak clearly first!"

Lin Shijun showed displeasure, and Han Shiyu looked this way.

Cui Han realized that he could no longer pretend to be confused, and immediately turned his head: "Kang Canjun, you are in your tens of years, and you are so fussy with a child like Saburo, don't you know what it means to be childish?"

"Cui Canjun..."

"Several Zongzheng Zongzhu didn't say a word, why are you in a hurry, maybe you have ghosts in your heart!"

"Okay, the next official is all ears."

If you are not an official, you have no human rights, and even your words will be interrupted.

Han Pingan secretly slandered, pointed to the four portraits on the east wall and said bitterly: "Grandpa Shijun, eighteen days ago, I took two servants out of the city to play, and I was ambushed by these four villains... "

Han Pingan talked about the time from being kidnapped by the thieves, to discovering that everything was related to Mifatai, and how he had to steal the seal of pushing officials in the face of many murderous plans, and ordered Xu Haoran to try to arrest Yele City. Thief captain, the establishment of a thief arresting agency in the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion for a thorough investigation.

Lin Shijun and General Wang were secretly startled, and subconsciously looked at Miphatai's son Mitif.

Mitiff neither defended nor begged for mercy, he didn't even look very scared, he still knelt behind the small table with no expression on his face.

The reactions of Shi Xianning and Bai Zuojian were very strange. They were very nervous when they first came in, but now they have become very calm.

Ashina Shan pretended to be calm, but those trembling hands betrayed him.

Shi Zeshan couldn't believe that the real Han Sanlang was not dead, but the fake Han Sanlang was dead. She was shocked and worried.

The more calm he became at this time, he kept looking at Ashina Sai who was kneeling opposite him with meaningful eyes.

As if receiving some kind of encouragement, Ashina nodded calmly, and suddenly became less scared than before.

An Fuyan was still sitting upright, thoughtful.

Although Han Shimei knew what had happened, looking at the portrait of the thief and listening to his son's description of what happened, he still felt lingering fear.

"I have the power, I have the investigators, and I have the money, but how will this case be investigated?"

Han Pingan paced back and forth in front of everyone, and said to himself: "It is understandable that someone wants to kill my father, but why do you want to kill me, and why do you have to find someone to pretend to be me? What's the use of pretending to be me? I was really confused at the time." Water, I really can’t think of a reason.”

It's quite complicated when you think about it, General Wang asked curiously: "What happened later."

Han Pingan smiled and said: "But one thing is very clear, killing my father and killing me and finding someone to pretend to be me, these two seemingly completely irrelevant clues eventually converge on Mi Fatai. Let’s start with the death of Chami Fatai, to see if we can clear the fog and solve this mystery.”

Wu Yatui had never seen such a bizarre case, and couldn't help asking: "Sanlang, it's understandable for you to say that someone killed your father. How do you say that?"

"Because no matter what you do, you can't have no motive. That is to say, whoever benefits from killing my father will benefit. The first thing I thought of was Uncle Six. If my father, the supervisor, is killed, Uncle An will be killed." The general will definitely be unlucky, and Uncle Six will have a chance to become a great general."

"Sanlang, how could I harm your father..."

"Li Chengye, who told you to speak!"

Wu Ya pushed and scolded, Li Chengye quickly lowered his head.

Han Pingan smiled, and continued: "The second thing that comes to mind is Uncle An. If he wants to rebel, the first person he will kill must be my father, the military supervisor. Besides, my father may have offended some people when he cleared up military discipline. , they hold a grudge and want revenge.”

General Wang asked, "What about later?"

"The most suspicious people on the Zhenjun side are of course Qian Chonghou and Liu Sangen. They rushed to the place where Cao Duman was trying to kill my father first, and then chased them to Baisha City without stopping. Even the ghost in the army who colluded with Cao Hedam, who was full of rebellion, was strangled to death under their custody."

"Seeing that Cao Duman led more than 100 cavalry to intercept and kill my father, the Langyafeng who had not released the wolf smoke for a long time were also their subordinates. But at that time they were in Baisha City, far away and far away. As for the evidence, there is nothing we can do with them for the time being, we can only start from Mifatai."

"Of course, I don't put all my eggs in one basket."

Han Pingan picked up a piece of melon from Lin Shijun's case, smiled while eating: "You can't just stare at the front when investigating the case. It happened in those few days, but those thieves must have planned for a long time. Others Not to mention, let me just say that it is not easy to find someone who looks similar to me and is about the same age as me in the vast crowd.

So in terms of time, I have to think about the past two or even three years.In terms of geography, we should not only focus on Yele and Baisha City, but also think of Guishu and even Chang'an.In other words, if you want to jump out of the case and look at the case, you have to stand higher and see farther..."

He started rambling again, and started talking nonsense again.

Han Shimei was about to remind her son not to digress, but seeing Lin Shijun nodding his head slightly, he could only give up again.

"So, I came up with a three-pronged approach."

Han Pingan looked back at Xu Haoran: "First of all, please ask Cui Mingfu and Xu Shaofu to go to Mifatai's house to investigate the case with great fanfare. While investigating the case, test the sixth uncle again to see how he responds. It turned out that the sixth uncle not only did not I was worried about the incident, but I was very supportive. So far, I have basically ruled out the possibility that he wants to kill my father."

General Wang asked with a smile, "Test again?"

"I tried it once before. The first time I told him that I was kidnapped by a Turkic horse thief, Cui Mingfu found out that Uncle Liu was shocked and worried, and even sent troops to Xieerfeng to redeem me with old man Chen.

To put it another way, his character is a little careless, bluffing, and even a little stubborn, and he is far behind in terms of playing with his mind. "

It's really not pleasant.

Li Chengye felt very comfortable listening, thinking that this crazy son-in-law is still very righteous, and this is trying to excuse him, the father-in-law.

"Secondly, please old man Chen secretly observe the movements of the Zoroastrians, Tuncheng, and Juncheng. Most of his night watchmen and Youyi people went to Baisha City with my father, and the rest are helping in the Thief Catch Bureau. , and Cui Mingfu and Xu Shaofu have made such a big commotion, naturally no one will be wary of him."

"Then let Huang Bowen, the executive officer of the Thieves Bureau, go to Mifatai's house with great fanfare, bring the official document with my father's official seal and my portrait, and hurry along the trade route to Guishu and even Beiting. Look for posthouses, beacon forts, garrison forts, and various guard cities along the way to see if anyone has seen the guy who tried to pretend to be me."

Han Pingan looked back at the Sogdians, and said with a smile: "That kid speaks with a Youzhou accent, and he should be from Guannei. On his way to Yele, he can bypass a posthouse called Fengbao. But you can’t get around everything. Gooses leave voices, people take photos, as long as you seriously investigate, you will definitely be able to find out his details.”

This child is really talented and intelligent, and he is more like a pusher than his father.

General Wang couldn't help sighing: "What a three-pronged approach!"
