Demon detective

Chapter 130 Game
When Eunuch Lan yawned and took the leader of the inner guard cabinet and the accompanying eunuchs to rest in the inner hall, and the governor Han Wentao also left the Yamen with his men, Song Zhili still seemed to be in a dream, unable to recover for a long time .

There are five things placed on the desk in front of him, besides the imperial decree and imperial decree, there are also his official guides, an official robe inlaid with gold and jade, and an exquisitely carved gold medal. flat peach.

Governor of Qi Prefecture, equivalent to a high-ranking official, is the second in command of the state government after the governor, and a fifth-rank official position. For his current county magistrate, it can be said that he has been promoted to a third rank!

That official robe is called the Yusheng Yingpao, which is a symbol of honor, representing the integrity of an official, uprightness, and fearlessness of the powerful.

The Golden Pantao is also called the Golden Wing, which represents the royal family's highest recognition for an official, and will definitely be entrusted with reuse in the future.

In other words, as long as Song Zhili works hard, he will definitely become an official in the court and assist the country in the future.

At this time, Chen Houlu was holding his golden belt, just like holding his beautiful wife and concubine, immersed in his own joy.

Perhaps at this time, he was secretly glad that Song Zhili didn't sign his retirement application, right?
Amazing!
At this moment, it is naturally impossible for Xu Zhen to accurately predict that such a major reversal will occur.

Mr. Lan is the chief supervisor of the Rites Supervisor, and Mei Dong is the chief of the inner guard mansion. Both of them are close ministers of the emperor.

Letting such an important person come to announce the decree overnight, and the governor of Songzhou must listen in, which is enough to show that the emperor attaches great importance to this case, and it also shows that there is a lot of content in it!

Could it be that... Cui Xiaotian's life-saving mechanism has already taken effect?
The emperor already knew about Han Wentao and others' deed of setting fire to the granary?

Xu Zhen felt that there was a meaning of beating Han Wentao between the lines of Mr. Lan's characters, especially when he was reading the emperor's handwriting, he seemed to be reading very hard on purpose.

Eunuch Lan's name is also very good, Lan Yanxi, this name... sounds a bit like Gongdou!
The name Meidong is even more interesting. I really want to ask him, is there a younger brother who can play Cuju?

Thinking wrong!
Xu Zhen quickly withdrew his thoughts and returned to the topic again.

In fact, for the current situation, he is not completely unpredicted.

The reason why he asked the monk Qi Yunzheng to leave Song Zhili with two prophecies was also because he had already deduced them before.

First, as early as the trial of Qiu Batian, the emperor had personally ordered to intervene. Although Qiu Batian's case involved the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, it was enough to show that the emperor was already paying attention to Yanping County.

Second, since the Wansheng gambling house was burned down, Xu Zhen found that there seemed to be some strange people near the Yamen.

Out of the keen investigative ability cultivated in his previous life, he realized that those strange people should be professional monitors, and they seemed to be monitoring every move of the yamen.

If it was someone from Qiu Batian or Cui Xiaotian, they would obviously not be so professional.

So, from that time on, Xu Zhen began to speculate whether those people were inner guards?
If so, then it would be of great benefit for them to deal with Cui Xiaotian.

It is precisely because of this that Xu Zhen left two prophecies.

Unexpectedly, I really guessed it right, the emperor really made a move!

He just didn't expect it to be so timely, so powerful.

Before, he even planned that once they escaped from the clutches of Han Wentao and others, could they take Cui Xiaotian to the Holy Capital to sue?
Now it seems that it is no longer necessary.

This is really a turning point. In this way, Song Zhili's name is justified, Han Wentao can only stare blankly, and he doesn't have to go wandering around the world with Youmeng!

However, although the crisis has been resolved and everything seems to be moving in a good direction, Xu Zhen, who is vigilant, still believes that he must not let his guard down...

……

At the same time, the governor Han Wentao stayed in the inn, in the mysterious guest room.

Han Wentao fell to his knees, trembling, waiting for his mysterious superior to answer.

If things went wrong, he naturally knew what consequences he would have!
However, when he tremblingly told about the imperial decree, the hoarse voice hidden in the shadow suddenly laughed.

"Hehehe..." The man laughed, "It's very good, Han Shishi really worked hard!"

"Ah!?" As soon as these words came out, Han Wentao was even more frightened. This sentence was hard work, and it seemed to mean letting himself rest forever.

"My lord..." Han Wentao said, "This incident was really an accident, and I still think that someone behind the scenes is targeting us. Please, for my loyalty, please spare my life!"

"Han Inspector, you misunderstood." The hoarse voice suddenly became more amiable, "Think about it carefully, if the Holy One really wants to kill us, will he let the Yamen kill Cui Xiaotian?"

"Ah?" One sentence made Han Wentao's spine feel hairy, and goose bumps covered his whole body.

"Let me ask you," the hoarse voice asked, "Is our Changle Emperor Guigeng this year?"

Emperor Changle's name is Li Xin, the eldest grandson of the previous emperor, Xuanxinzong Li Xing.

The emperor's grandson succeeds to the throne, so it is naturally impossible for him to be old.

"Nineteen years old, right?" Han Wentao replied, not knowing why the other party mentioned the emperor's age.

"The new emperor has only been enthroned for four years," the hoarse voice analyzed, "Nowadays, the court and court are facing each other, and the power is getting stronger and stronger. Our little emperor obviously has his own ideas!

"Because of the Qiu Zhennong incident, Qiu Kai was unable to join the cabinet for a long time, which gave us an advantage. However, the current Cui Xiaotian incident has put us in the army again.

"Thus, the two sides are considered a tie.

"However," said a hoarse voice, "Once Cui Xiaotian's secret is revealed to the world, our side will suffer heavy losses.

"Obviously, the little emperor doesn't want to see this situation, and he still needs us to check and balance the other side.

"So..." said a hoarse voice, "Firstly, the Cui Xiaotian incident is over here, firstly kill him; secondly, the little emperor took the opportunity to beat us, so that we can take care of ourselves.

"In my opinion, either the little emperor is a genius, or he has a master by his side."

"But...but..." Han Wentao was still terrified, "Cui Xiaotian's life-saving mechanism is definitely not a lie. Once the cabinet gets hold of those things, we will definitely be impeached!"

"Wrong, this is the best part of the little emperor," said a hoarse voice, "The cabinet has physical evidence but no personal evidence, so we can only fight a war of attrition with us.

"If the little emperor really wants to bring us down, he just needs to keep Cui Xiaotian alive."

"So..." Han Wentao said in surprise, "He wants our two factions to fight each other, which is... too scheming?"

"The emperor's art is beyond the reach of ordinary people," said a hoarse voice, "Han Inspector, you don't have to worry, cooperate with the work of the county government, and cut Cui Xiaotian!"

"But..." Han Wentao worried, "What about Song Zhili and those people? If they go out and talk nonsense, then we won't be passive..."

"I can't help it," said a hoarse voice, "The emperor gave him a golden pan peach, that is to protect him, and it would be unwise to touch the emperor's Nilin!

"Actually... we still have something to gain," the hoarse voice said again, "at least we have figured out the emperor's attitude. The current passivity is not really passive. Only in this way can we make our future plans more foolproof..."
