Datang: Hiding private money, exposed by Xiao Sizi

They just feel that they have seen the truth.

At the same time, they also admired Shen Lian even more.

Even Wang Chengdao couldn't help but sigh, Shen Lian... This is the most intelligent person in the Chu Palace, he really deserves the title!

After all, he didn't notice this detail, this clue at all.

Anthony also couldn't help shaking his head in admiration. Putting aside the hostile forces, Shen Lian really deserved their admiration.

Everyone was filled with emotion towards Shen Lian.

And Shen Lian, seeing the expressions on their faces that already knew the whole truth, just sighed in his heart.

The world is stupid!
the truth?

Ah!
They have already strayed a hundred and eight thousand miles away!
And, in this life, none of them will know the truth.

Because, the person behind the scenes is himself!
Everyone now knows that the scene was faked by the murderer, and they also know the murderer's purpose and how the murderer escaped from this secret room.

But... who is the murderer?
They looked at Shen Lian again.

Although Wang Chengdao didn't know about Shen Lian's plan, he didn't know that he had fallen into Shen Lian's trick.

But he could sense that the current situation was getting out of control.

Shen Lian's image and status among these envoys became more and more powerful.

If things go on like this, Wanbang's coming to court this time will really give Datang benefits for nothing.

He didn't want to make this trip in vain, and he didn't want Datang to be the final winner. After all, the stronger Datang was, the more difficult it would be for him to win Datang in the future.

He didn't want himself to work so hard to pull this off, only to end up making a wedding dress for Datang.

So Wang Chengdao spoke directly, trying to disrupt Shen Lian's rhythm, he said: "Commander Shen, you have said so much, but you still haven't said who the murderer is."

"Of course, you did find out a lot of secrets, but what's the use of not knowing who the murderer is? Everyone is still uneasy, and still can't let go."

The other envoys nodded slightly when they heard Wang Chengdao's words.

Indeed, what they want is a murderer.

As long as the murderer is not caught, their hearts will be terrified and restless.

Shen Lian glanced at Wang Chengdao, with a deep expression, which gave Wang Chengdao the feeling that Shen Lian had seen through him at a glance, leaving him with no secrets.

This feeling made him panic.

Shen Lian raised the corners of his mouth and laughed softly. The laughter seemed to be mocking Wang Chengdao's petty thoughts.

Wang Chengdao's face froze.

And before he could say anything in the future, Shen Lian withdrew his gaze.

"Why are you anxious? This is the case. We need to search for clues one by one and present evidence one by one. Only in this way can our reasoning avoid any surprises."

"After all, human life is at stake. We must not allow criminals to escape punishment, but we must also never allow innocent people to suffer unjust injustice."

"I don't know your attitude towards the case, but I will never allow myself to close any case in a hurry. That is not only unfair to the deceased, but also unfair to the truth."

Originally, the envoys who were anxious to let Shen Lian find the murderer, don't care about these details, heard Shen Lian's words, and lowered their heads in shame.

They felt that if they were compared with Shen Lian, they would be really inferior.

Shen Lian seemed to be bathed in holy light, making them look up.

And precisely because of this, they became more and more convinced of Shen Lian.

They feel that a person who is so committed to the truth, who is so principled, is definitely someone worthy of their trust.

As for Wang Chengdao, because of Shen Lian's words, he directly became a villain.

For the sake of the truth, Shen Lian will never be careless.

Then Wang Chengdao's urging of Shen Lian, isn't it the kind of person who hastily closed the case and must be responsible for the truth and the deceased?

For a while, some of the envoys who were close to Wang Chengdao were a few steps away from Wang Chengdao.

In the already crowded room, there was a vacuum around Wang Chengdao.

Can't help but say, it's really amazing.

Of course, what was even more amazing was Wang Chengdao's livid face.

It turns out that when a person is aggrieved and angry, his face can really turn blue.

Shen Lian glanced at Wang Chengdao lightly and sneered in his heart. He just disdained using words to bully people, but it didn't mean that he couldn't do it.

On the contrary, with Shen Lian's intelligence, it couldn't be easier for him to squeeze people out.

It's just that before he felt that the sharpness of the tongue was too tasteless.

But now, Wang Chengdao is like a chirping sparrow, screaming non-stop and making noise.

Once or twice, Shen Lian farted.

But Wang Chengdao didn't stop and continued to make noise, so Shen Lian had no choice but to use Wang Chengdao to boost his image and let Wang Chengdao know the consequences of being squeezed out.

Lift and step on, Shen Lian is a professional.

He did not mention Wang Chengdao in the whole article, but Wang Chengdao became the foil for Shen Lian's glorious image.

This is the gap in rank.

Shen Lian laughed, that is, it is not the time to deal with Wang Chengdao, otherwise, he could let Wang Chengdao become the murderer.

But... Wang Chengdao is still useful, so Shen Lian will keep him for the time being.

"Actually, now that we know how the murderer left, we will be very close to finding the murderer."

Shen Lian spoke again. As soon as he spoke, everyone's eyes focused on Shen Lian again, and Shen Lian once again became the center of attention.

Shen Lian said: "In the inn, there are soldiers from the Tang Dynasty patrolling at all times to protect everyone's safety, and there are also guards brought by the envoys themselves, so the murderer, even if he escaped here during the chaos, would not dare to mess around at all. Run, and don’t dare to run too far, or you will be in danger of being discovered.”

"It just so happened that our patrol officers from the Tang Dynasty were patrolling nearby at that time. I have already asked them if they saw anyone walking around my Shen Lian before and after the incident. The answer was no..."

"What does this mean, do you know?"

Once again, everyone was seduced by Shen Lian and given psychological hints.

When they thought about the meaning of Shen Lian's words, Wang Chengdao also frowned and started thinking.

Soon, someone said: "Could it be... the murderer didn't return by road at all after committing the crime?"

"It must be so. There are so many patrolling soldiers, and they are very dense. This is still in the post station of Datang. If the murderer walks on the road, it is impossible not to be discovered."

"Then how did he leave without passing the road?"

Suddenly someone said: "Unless...he doesn't need to take the main road..."

As soon as these words came out, suddenly, the originally noisy room became incomparably quiet.

But although the sound was gone.Everyone's eyes were suddenly looking at one person at this moment!

And this person is Anthony, the envoy of the Great Food Kingdom!
They are all staring at Anthony at this moment!
Anthony also noticed that everyone was staring at him, his expression changed, and he said, "What are you looking at me for? I didn't do this at all!"

Anthony naturally thought of things that other envoys thought of.

And this thought made his whole body go cold.

He hurriedly looked at Shen Lian and said, "Commander Shen, Commander Shen, please tell everyone that the murderer is not me. You must not accuse me unjustly!"

Shen Lian glanced at Anthony and said, "Anthony, it's not that everyone has wronged you, but everyone does have reason to doubt you."

"The Prince of Tubo lives in Tiangang No. [-] Courtyard, and the Tiangang Courtyard is arranged from left to right according to training. That is to say, Tiangang No. [-] Courtyard is the outermost one. Beyond that, we, the Tang Dynasty, are temporarily stationed at the inn to guard Your military camp, you don’t think the murderer is so bold that he dares to come to our military camp, right?”

"So, Tiangang No. [-] Courtyard next door to Tiangang No. [-] Courtyard is really suspicious!"

"And it just so happens that you live in Tiangang No. [-] Courtyard... The thieves will not go to the military camp or take the main road, so the only one who wants to escape is you, Tiangang No. [-] Courtyard."

"so.……"

Shen Lian's eyes flickered and he said, "I really don't blame everyone for doubting you, but the possibility points to you."

"Of course, I will not wrongly accuse you just because of this matter. However, since everyone suspects you, a proper search is also necessary, so..."

He looked at Anthony with an ugly face, and said, "Your Tiangang No. [-] courtyard, can you let us search it?"

Although Shen Lian's words were an inquiry, Anthony knew that he could not refuse.

There is no reason to refuse, nor dare to refuse.

Because of refusal, what does it mean?
It shows that he has a ghost in his heart!
After all, the case has now been extrapolated to this point.

The murderer, indeed, was the most likely, his Tiangang No. [-] Courtyard.

If he doesn't refuse, let Shen Lian and the others search.

That will naturally give people a sense of self-confidence that they are not afraid of shadows.

But if he refuses.

There is only one possibility.

He was scared!
He was afraid of being searched for something.

In other words, Shen Lian was just suspicious before, but after he refused, it was equivalent to self-destruction.

It is equivalent to directly telling everyone that he has a problem.

Therefore, even if Anthony had 1 reluctances, he couldn't refuse.

Even though... my own residence has some secrets of my own.

But now, these envoys are all eyeing him.

He didn't dare to think about what would happen if he refused.

However, Anthony is not afraid.

Because he knew that he had never done anything, so even if he was searched, he would not be afraid.

He looked at Shen Lian and said, "I also hope to catch the murderer as soon as possible, so I am naturally willing to help Commander Shen."

"Since Commander Shen wants to search, let's check it out. I support it with both hands."

Anthony's straightforwardness made the envoys who thought they had found the murderer suspicious again.

It is really Anthony's performance at this time, too relaxed.

If Anthony is really the murderer, he should think of a way to stop it, right?
So, is Anthony really not the murderer, or is it that... he has something to rely on, or is he too good at pretending?
These envoys all frowned and looked at Anthony. For a while, they couldn't tell what Anthony was thinking.

As for Shen Lian, he just glanced at Anthony lightly, his expression unhurried, neither salty nor indifferent.

He said: "In that case, let's check it out. If it really has nothing to do with you, I will never let you suffer innocent injustice!"

Anthony nodded with a smile: "I believe in Commander Shen. After all, Commander Shen's reputation is well known to the world."

Shen Lian no longer delayed, waved his hand directly and said: "Qin Shaoqing, take people to search."

"sure, no problem!"

Qin Ziyi didn't think much about it. Shen Lian asked him to check, so he just went and checked.

As for whether he could find something, Qin Ziyi himself didn't know.

Soon, a kind of yamen servant entered Tiangang No. [-] courtyard.

None of Shen Lian and the others entered Tiangang No. [-] courtyard, but stood at the door, waiting for the situation inside.

Shen Lian said: "There are too many of us. If Anthony is not the murderer and the murderer is hiding among us...if we go in, we may give the murderer a chance to frame Anthony, so everyone should wait outside the door. After the Dali Temple search, we will naturally be informed of the results."

Everyone nodded in agreement when they heard Shen Lian's words.

Shen Lian was very thoughtful in all aspects.

And even though Anthony repeatedly made trouble for Shen Lian, Qin Wenyuan still took Anthony seriously and did not allow Anthony any chance of being framed before the result came out...
This kind of heart, this kind of atmosphere, made these envoys even more admired.

They felt that Shen Lian was like a saint in the world!

Compared with Shen Lian's magnanimity, they felt that they were really petty.

Even Wang Chengdao, the envoy of Nanzhao, A Guda, the great prince of Tie Le, and others couldn't help but nodded.

Not to mention anything else, Shen Lian is enough to be arrogant to everyone just for his fairness and seriousness in solving cases.

If it were them, Anthony would make trouble for him many times, and he would definitely take this opportunity to deal with Anthony well.

Even if Anthony can't be killed, it won't make Anthony feel better.

But Shen Lian was not like that.

This made them, as opponents, couldn't help but sigh a few words, Shen Lian and them are just different!

As for Shen Lian himself, who was constantly being lamented by everyone, he just looked calmly into the courtyard.

He was not arrogant or impetuous, and he did not feel complacent because of the changes in everyone's attitudes.

Of course, it's not that Shen Lian is so humble.

But Shen Lian really didn't know what to be happy about. After all, being promoted by some kept-in-the-dark pawns, there was really nothing to be proud of.

They thought it was tolerance, but it was just Shen Lian, who didn't want to make troubles in vain.

Whoever he wanted to frame, he wouldn't give that person a chance to escape!
Therefore, he didn't want to let anyone in, he just didn't want what he just said to really be an excuse for that person to escape his calculations.

Shen Lian is such a person, he doesn't care about anyone.

If it is calculated, it will definitely be the perfect plan!
