Datang: Starting from a fortune-telling stall, Wu Zetian was suddenly abducted

Chapter 30 A set of combination punches made no sound
After listening to Li Junxian and Guo Xiaoke's words, Li Chunfeng couldn't help but feel refreshed, and was about to ask them to continue the investigation.

However, at this moment, a high-pitched voice sounded outside the door:

"The imperial decree has arrived, old slave, pass it on to His Majesty."

"Li Chunfeng, Li Junxian, and Guo Xiaoke will suspend the search of Ximing Temple and enter the palace to discuss matters at Chenshi today."

"Let the Nanya Army take over the Sutra Pagoda first, and then the master will implement it."

After hearing this imperial edict, Li Chunfeng and the other three looked at each other with surprise in their hearts.

This Ximing Temple is really a holy family, and it dares to disturb His Majesty so late.

But fortunately, His Majesty is not confused and did not listen to Ximing Temple's one-sided words, so they can continue to investigate further.

Thinking of this, the three also responded loudly:

"Li Chunfeng obeys the order."

"Li Junxian obeys the order."

"Guo Xiaoke complies."

Later, Guo Xiaoke ordered the Nanya Army to guard Ximing Temple and wanted them to continue the search.

However, they were stopped by Shentai who was next to them, saying that they dared to resist the order, and at the same time let the monks monitor every move of the Nanya army.

Hearing this, the three of them smiled disdainfully and left the scripture tower.

After walking outside the temple, Li Junxian left most of his guards behind and told them to keep a close eye on Ximing Temple before he left with peace of mind.

At Chenshi, the three entered the palace and met Li Shimin.

Before entering the palace, the three people had discussed it. Although Li Chunfeng had a low official position, he was deeply favored by the Holy Grace.

Moreover, Li Chunfeng was involved in this matter, so he will tell the story.

Li Shimin gave the three people seats and asked what happened last night.
Li Chunfeng started from the debate on scriptures and continued to the investigation of Ximing Temple.

After Li Shimin listened to the whole process, he looked at them with a headache and said:

"You guys are so courageous, you dare to use the name of Nanya Army privately."

Li Chunfeng said respectfully: "The situation is urgent. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

Hearing this, Li Shimin nodded and warned:

"I won't do this next time, otherwise, even if I can spare you, those censors will not spare you."

"Look for yourselves, these are the memorials to impeach you today."

The three of them looked at the pile of memorials that were almost piled up, and they all stood up and saluted, thanking His Majesty for your forgiveness.

Li Shimin continued; "Since you haven't found any evidence, it means they have moved the evidence."

"I also allow you to continue investigating this matter, but I only give you five days."

"In five days, I will give the queen a medical treatment."

Hearing this, the three of them trembled in their hearts.

They are all very aware of Li Shimin's rebellious nature.

The first is rebellion. No matter how good your relationship with him is, as long as you are involved in this, even if you are his brother, he will never let it go.

The second is Queen Changsun. Over the past few years, the Queen's health has become worse and worse, and Li Shimin's temper has gradually become irritable.

If he took care of the queen before, he and the others might be implicated.

At this time, Li Shimin said again: "Five days is enough for you to investigate. You two, Chunfeng and Junxian, are the main ones, and Xiaoke is the assistant. The Nanya Army can be mobilized at any time."

"By the way, Jun Xian, in three days, it will be the day you are granted the title. Don't forget it."

"Okay, do you have anything else to say? If not, just step back."

Immediately, the three of them bowed and left.

After leaving the palace, Li Junxian and Guo Xiaoke looked at Li Chunfeng in unison.

Seeing the two people looking at him, Li Chunfeng couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Your Majesty's combination of punches makes no sound. It seems that if this matter goes wrong, I will be mainly responsible."

Li Junxian consoled him: "Brother Chunfeng, the emperor is dissatisfied with us for not saying hello to him in advance, so he is insinuating this."

"However, five days is still enough time. Moreover, this is also a chance for the emperor to make up for our mistakes."

Guo Xiaoke also looked at Li Chunfeng and said, "Brother Chunfeng, the Nanya Army will definitely cooperate with us."

Hearing this, Li Chunfeng stopped thinking and prepared to start the investigation.In just five days, it was also very stressful.

Li Chunfeng had no intention of thinking about the punishment in five days, but quickly began to make arrangements.

After discussing with Li Junxian and Guo Xiaoke.

Considering the large flow of people in Ximing Temple, the emperor had no intention of ordering the closure of the temple.

So their focus is still on searching.

First, two hundred Nanya troops were ordered to conduct a blanket search of the entire scripture tower.

Then, he ordered two hundred Nanya troops to search other places in the temple.

Focus on searching the main hall, each side hall, and the monk's residence.

Another hundred Nanya troops were sent to guard every passage inside and outside the temple. Those who entered could be left alone, but those who went out had to be searched.

Immediately afterwards, Li Junxian went to the Ministry of Industry, called up the construction plan of Ximing Temple, and cooperated with the Nanya Army to eliminate them one by one.

In addition, Li Junxian also arranged a group of guards to patrol outside the temple to prevent unruly people from climbing over the wall and entering the temple.

Li Chunfeng ordered someone to bribe the wandering monks in the temple to find out the information. He himself was sitting in the Star Observation Tower, constantly observing the changes in luck in Ximing Temple at twelve hours.

After the deployment was completed, the three of them also acted separately.

Suddenly, the entire Ximing Temple was in a state of restlessness due to their torment.

The vendors outside the temple were panicked when they saw so many officers and soldiers. They knew that something big was going on at Ximing Temple, so they all removed their stalls and observed the situation at Ximing Temple.

Among the pilgrims who kept coming and going, there were also many dignitaries who were particularly dissatisfied with the fact that Nanya troops were searched when they came in and out.

There was even a conflict with the Nanya army, and many memorials to impeach Guo Xiaoke were presented to Li Shimin, and Guo Xiaoke felt pressured for a while.

However, the worst thing was for the monks in the temple. Everyone's life and routine were completely disrupted by the Nanya Army.

Nan Yajun can be seen in the house, kitchen, and even the place where he usually practices.

The monks complained endlessly about being harassed and ran to Shenping and Shentai one after another to complain.

Shentai looked at the arrogant Nanya Army in the temple and was furious.

I ran to the abbot's room to find Shenping, complained, and asked Shenping to find a way to solve the matter.

Shenpei sat cross-legged on the futon, twirling Buddhist beads and chanting sutras.

After Shenping finished chanting, he asked, "Are those Gu puppets properly placed?"

Shentai responded in a respectful tone: "Everything has been placed properly."

"Those are the relics left by the Sui Dynasty. Even if they turn over them, it will be difficult to find them."

"I recite scriptures several times every day to cover up my dead energy, and that Li Chunfeng can't detect it even if he has the posture of a celestial master."

After finishing speaking, Shenpei recited a Buddha's name and relaxed a lot.

When Shen Tai saw that Shen Ping stopped talking, he asked angrily:

"Senior brother, are we just going to let Li Chunfeng do such random things in our temple?"

"The monks in the temple are all miserable."

"The pilgrims who came are also quite dissatisfied. Rumors are spreading in the city. I am afraid that by tomorrow, the pilgrims will not dare to come again."

Shenping said in a deep voice, "I underestimated Li Chunfeng."

"This person's methods are despicable, and he obviously wants to take the opportunity to destroy Ximing Temple."

"Continuing on like this, I'm afraid he will find out the clues, and this person can no longer stay."

Hearing this, Shentai immediately became energetic. After thinking for a moment, he said with a worried face:
"Senior brother, if we get rid of Li Chunfeng now, we may soon be suspected of Ximing Temple."

Kampei's expression remained unchanged, "Only dead people can't speak, so how can they start investigating."

"After he dies, everything will be calm in a while."

"You immediately send someone to bribe his servants and collect his hair, nails, etc., so that I can cast the spell as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Shentai did not dare to waste a moment and hurriedly sent someone to do it.

In the blink of an eye, two days passed, and the two parties fell into an anxious stalemate.

Li Chunfeng still hasn't found any favorable evidence, and everything has made no progress.

On the other hand, at Ximing Temple, there are fewer and fewer pilgrims, and the monks are also absent-minded. It has really become a monk ringing the clock every day.
