People are in Zhenguan, solving crimes scientifically

Chapter 236 The prince is in a coma, the king of Yue seizes the heir, and the storm is coming!

Two days later.

Outside the majestic Chang'an City, there are many pedestrians.

On the spacious and straight official road, there are wealthy people dressed in rich clothes, working people in simple clothes, and foreigners wearing Hu clothes. Some of them have fair skin, and some are as black as coal. They speak different languages ​​and have different expressions. The skin color appears on the road outside Chang'an City at the same time, but it does not give people any weird feeling at all. Even ordinary people are accustomed to these things... This is Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty. At this moment, it is the most prosperous and prosperous place in the world. A place that embraces all rivers.

At this time, these pedestrians with different skin colors and different clothes suddenly stopped, raised their heads and looked towards the distance of the road.

Then they saw thousands of horses galloping towards them on the official road in the distance. The dust kicked up by the horses' hooves gathered above their heads. The darkness was like dark clouds, covering the sky and the sun, and spread rapidly with the thousands of horses.

At this moment, whether they were wealthy businessmen, common people, or foreigners, they all hurriedly moved to both sides of the road, not daring to confront the horses head-on with their flesh and blood bodies.

Watching the passing of these elite cavalry, the common people couldn't help but start talking curiously, discussing where these cavalry came from and whether a new war was about to happen.

"Uu——"

At this time, these thousands of elite cavalry suddenly stopped outside the city gate.

Xiao Man'er's sensibleness made Lin Feng sigh more than once. With a wife like this, what could a real husband ask for?

He ignored Chen Miao and looked at Xiao Man'er, who was wearing a smart outfit and full of heroic spirit, and said: "Man'er, how are you? Are you tired?"

Xiao Man'er felt Lin Feng's concern and shook her head with a smile: "I have been naughty and independent since I was a child. In addition to reading, I also like riding and shooting. So I have pestered my father to teach me riding and shooting since I was a child, and I practice a few tricks every day. At this time, this kind of traveling is not difficult for me. "

Lin Feng said with a smile: "In addition, I promised your father to take care of you. If you have other needs in Chang'an City, you can come to me. As long as I can help, I will definitely help."

After hearing these words, Du Cheng's face finally had a different look, and he hurriedly said: "Thank you Lin Si Zheng."

Lin Feng said: "Go ahead and settle down first."

Lin Feng had already decided that after the incident in Chang'an passed safely, he would propose marriage to Xiao Yu.

Chen Miao opened the folding fan and fanned coquettishly. Looking at the ancient and majestic city in front of him, he said: "It is indeed Chang'an. It is prosperous and majestic enough. It is indeed worthy of my son's hard work to come here." , this will be my master’s place of fame from now on.”

Du Cheng did not reject Lin Feng's kindness. Even though he was cold and aloof, he still knew what he should do and what he shouldn't do.

Watching Zhao Shishi and Xiao Maner leave, Lin Feng looked at Chen Miao and Du Ming again and said, "Mr. Chen, Mr. Du, I wonder if you have a place to live in Chang'an City? If not, you can go to my mansion first. Stay for a while.”

"After entering the city in a while, you can go back to Xiao Mansion to rest. I have something urgent and need to go back to Dali Temple Yamen immediately. I will visit you when I am free tomorrow." Lin Feng said softly.

Du Cheng glanced at the fool who was fanning Han Qiu. His waist was straight and his words gave people a sense of sharpness: "The Du family has more than one house in Chang'an. I don't need Mr. Chen to bother. In addition, I feel that I have nothing to do with Mr. Chen." People with the same aspirations may not be good friends.”

As he said that, he looked at Du Cheng, and while fanning himself in the cold autumn of late October, he felt free and easy to invite Du Cheng: "Mr. Du, although we have only known each other for two days, I think you and I have a chance to become friends. Confidant, if you don’t have a place to live, you can live in my Chen family’s house. You can live wherever you want, and I won’t charge you any money.”

His heart became softer and he nodded: "I know."

"All right."

"Yes!"

Chen Miao was directly rejected by Du Cheng, and was not embarrassed. He smiled and said: "If we don't have the same ambitions, we can cultivate them slowly. In the future, we may not be able to become close friends."

Lin Feng withdrew his gaze, relaxed his muscles and bones, and listened to the crackling sounds coming from the joints all over his body. He took a long breath, looked at Sun Fujia, Zhao Xieyang, Du Cheng and others who were traveling with him, and said with a smile: "In order to hurry up, Apart from resting with the horses, we didn’t waste any time. Thank you all for the hard work.”

When Xiao Man'er was on the road, she already knew how complicated the current situation in Chang'an City was. When she heard the voice, she nodded directly: "Don't worry about me, I will rest for two days... On the contrary, you must protect yourself and think about everything. "If you have anything to do, you can go to your father. If your father doesn't help you, just tell me and I'll make trouble for him."

Zhao Xieyang shook his head quickly and said: "As long as we can reach Chang'an smoothly, the hard work is nothing."

After saying that, he no longer delayed, directly pulled the reins, turned the horse around, and said: "Let's go!"

Although she said this, Xiao Man'er's flushed face, the fine beads of sweat on the tip of her nose, and her slight panting when speaking still betrayed the fact that Xiao Man'er was very tired and hardworking.

The captain who commanded the cavalry saluted Lin Feng and said, "Lin Si is right, I can only send you here. Without your Majesty's order, we cannot enter Chang'an City."

Lin Feng smiled and nodded, and said: "You go and settle down first. After you are settled, send someone to send me a message and tell me where you live. When I have some free time, I will write a letter to introduce you to the masters of the art of war in the Imperial College." "

Du Cheng had a cold temperament and didn't talk much, but he nodded.

Looking at Du Cheng's back like a javelin, Chen Miao exclaimed: "Is this Du Cheng really the legitimate son of a great Confucian family? No matter how he looks at it, he can't get along with the great Confucian family."

Lin Feng looked at Chen Miao and said, "I treat you the same way. If you need anything in Chang'an City in the future, you can come to me."

Lin Feng knew that Xiao Man'er didn't want him to worry about her. She didn't want to be a burden to him. He wanted Xiao Man'er to ride in the carriage more than once, but Xiao Man'er knew that Lin Feng was in a hurry to rush back to Chang'an and the carriage was too slow, so she insisted on riding together.

Chen Miao hurriedly swung the folding fan and said: "My father has told me that when we arrive in Chang'an, we can no longer trouble Lin Si Zheng. Lin Si Zheng can rest assured that my Chen family has a house in Chang'an, which is completely enough to live in."

Lin Feng listened to Xiao Man'er's words and thought to himself that if Xiao Yu heard these words, Xiao Yu would probably be heartbroken. Before he even got through, his elbow was already bent so badly.

The captain had a bold temper and said with a smile: "Okay! Then we will wait for Lin Si Zheng's good wine and food. We will not return until we are drunk."

Du Cheng did not respond to Chen Miao's shamelessness.

Lin Feng understood the rules of the army. He bowed and said, "Thank you, Commander Han, for taking care of me along the way. After I am settled, I will bring good wine and food to thank Commander Han and all the brothers."

Du Cheng saluted Lin Feng and rode directly into Chang'an City.

Lin Feng glanced at Chen Miao. If he hadn't known that Chen Miao's show of coquettishness was all disguise, he would have really suspected that Chen Yitian was deceived by lard and let Chen Miao perform such an important task.

Lin Feng originally thought that Xiao Man'er would stop persisting because he was tired, but unexpectedly, Xiao Man'er actually persisted until Chang'an.

He looked at Lin Feng, cupped his hands and said, "Lin Sizheng still has official duties, so I won't disturb Lin Sizheng."

"Don't talk about other people behind their backs."

As powerful as the Tathagata came when he left, he swept across like a torrent and disappeared at the end of the road in the blink of an eye.

"Tsk tsk..."

After saying that, Lin Feng looked directly at Zhao Shishi and said: "Shishi, send Man'er home."

Chen Miao hurriedly closed the fan and said with a smile: "Lin Si is the only leg I can hold in Chang'an. If I encounter problems, I will definitely find Lin Si Zheng. I just hope Lin Si Zheng won't find me troublesome."

Lin Feng smiled and said: "You have followed me all the way. Do you think I will be someone who is afraid of trouble?"

"That's true."

Chen Miao cupped her hands to Lin Feng and said, "Then I won't delay Lin Sizheng's time. After I settle in, I will visit Lin Sizheng in person."

Lin Feng nodded: "You can come anytime."

Chen Miao got the result he wanted, and without further delay, he rode directly into Chang'an City.

Soon, only Lin Feng, Sun Fujia and Zhao Xieyang were left in the originally lively group.

Looking at the back of Chen Miao, who was dressed in gorgeous clothes and fluttering sleeves, Lin Feng narrowed his eyes and said, "Dr. Sun, you said... Chen Miao and Du Cheng are really just what they said." Have you known each other for two days?”

Zhao Xieyang originally thought that Chen Miao and Du Chengzhen were two extreme personalities, and found their conversation just interesting. Unexpectedly, Lin Feng said such words just after they left.

This made him startled, and before he could understand the meaning of Lin Feng's words, he heard Sun Fujia's voice: "They should have known each other before, and they are familiar with each other to a certain extent."

"what?"

Zhao Xieyang was stunned for a moment, and he couldn't help but said: "Why do you say that?"

When Sun Feng saw that Lin Feng was not hiding from Zhao Xieyang and said this, he understood that Lin Feng really wanted to take Zhao Xieyang into his confidant. He said, "I wonder if County Lieutenant Zhao has noticed something."

"what's up?"

"Yesterday when we were taking a break, Chen Miao gave Du Cheng a piece of cake from the dry food we were eating."

Zhao Xieyang thought for a while and nodded immediately: "I remember, but that's nothing, right? Didn't Chen Miao bring us pancakes too?"

Sun Fujia shook his head: "It's nothing to take the pancakes, but before taking the pancakes, I saw Chen Miao pick up a piece of dried meat first, but after he glanced at Du Cheng, he put the dried meat back and only took Pancakes, but when he brought us something, he also brought dried meat.”

Zhao Xieyang frowned and said, "Maybe Chen Miao felt that Du Cheng was too arrogant and deliberately refused to give him delicious dried meat."

"It's possible."

Sun Fujia continued: "But when we ate dry food this morning, Du Cheng got the food by himself. I saw with my own eyes that he threw the dried meat aside with disgust and only picked up the pancakes."

"Is there anything else?" Zhao Xieyang looked surprised: "I didn't notice these." Sun Fujia smiled: "My eyes never left them, so I saw these two things clearly. ...If Chen Miao didn't bring dried meat to Du Cheng, it might be because he was dissatisfied with Du Cheng. But Du Cheng himself didn't bring dried meat and looked disgusted, so Chen Miao didn't give it to Du Cheng. The matter of drying meat is very debatable. "

Lin Feng said at this time: "Also...when Du Cheng and Chen Miao went to relieve themselves together, Du Cheng just glanced at Chen Miao, and Chen Miao turned around to observe Du Cheng's surroundings."

"This is not the tacit understanding and reaction of two people who are unhappy with each other."

Zhao Xieyang was not stupid. On the contrary, he had a strong reasoning ability. It was this that made Lin Feng take a liking to him.

So at this moment, after Lin Feng and Sun Fujia gave out details that he had not noticed, he quickly reacted: "The tacit understanding of one thing may be a coincidence, but two things will never be a coincidence again... They really Have you known each other for a long time?"

"But if that's the case, why do they act like they're not familiar with it at all? Even Du Cheng specifically acted like he didn't want to give Chen Miao face?"

Lin Feng smiled and said, "Isn't this obvious?"

"what?"

Lin Feng said meaningfully: "They just want us to think that they don't know each other. After all...normally, there is no intersection between them. Wouldn't it be abnormal for them to know each other?"

"This……"

The familiar feeling came again. He obviously knew every word Lin Feng said, but when they were put together, he felt that his wisdom had been ruthlessly crushed.

Even before entering Chang'an, Zhao Xieyang could feel the smell of conspiracy.

"Come on, let's go into the city too."

Lin Feng smiled and drove the horse while saying: "After arriving at Dali Temple, I will go to Xiao Siqing to tell you about you and see if there is any vacancy in the Yamen. If not, you will serve as an official first."

Zhao Xieyang said quickly: "Thank you very much Lin Sizheng. Lin Sizheng can rest assured that I will definitely live up to Lin Sizheng's trust and work conscientiously so as not to embarrass Lin Sizheng."

Lin Feng smiled and said: "Since I personally brought you to Dali Temple, I naturally believe that you can do well. In addition, like Zhao Shiwu, you are only responsible to me in Dali Temple. If I do not give you the task, you Just go about your business in Dali Temple. If I have something to do, you just need to follow my orders."

Zhao Xieyang couldn't hide the excitement on his face. Lin Feng's words were equivalent to telling him directly that he was Lin Feng's direct confidant. If Lin Feng was promoted in the future, he would definitely be able to follow the rising tide, which was definitely unmatched by ordinary officials.

Even if Lin Feng's official position does not increase, given Lin Feng's status in Dali Temple, he will definitely be promoted as long as there is a vacancy. It can be said that as long as Lin Feng stays in trouble, his future is very promising.

"From now on, I will listen to Lin Sizheng's orders. Lin Sizheng asked me to go west, but I will never go east."

Zhao Xieyang expressed his loyalty to Lin Feng very sensibly.

Lin Feng nodded slightly and said no more.

After everyone was settled, Lin Feng looked at Sun Fujia for the last time and said, "Doctor Sun go to Dali Temple with me, or go back to the Ministry of Punishment?"

Sun Fuga thought for a while: "I have experienced many things this time, and it is necessary for me to report them to Dai Shangshu as soon as possible. I will go back to the Ministry of Punishment first."

Lin Feng nodded: "It's okay. Dai Shangshu, Xiao Siqing and Wei Gong are all trustworthy people. There is no need to hide anything from them."

…………

Dali Temple.

Lin Feng and Zhao Xieyang entered the Yamen.

As soon as he entered, Lin Feng noticed something was wrong with the atmosphere in the Yamen.

When someone saw Lin Feng, they hurriedly saluted and said hello to Lin Feng as usual. However, after Lin Feng left, Lin Feng noticed from the corner of his eye that they were still standing there, looking at him, and their expressions seemed a little complicated.

Lin Feng's eyes flashed slightly, thoughtfully in his heart.

"Lin SiZheng, you are back!"

At this time, a familiar voice sounded.

Lin Feng followed the sound and saw Li Haomiao, the envoy of Dali Temple, his eyes lit up the moment he saw him. He quickly ran in front of him, looked at Lin Feng with burning eyes, and said: "Lin Si Zheng, you can go now After spending so many days in Linshui County, I must have gained a lot, right? I wonder if there is any news that I can know."

Li Haomiao is a typical gossip expert who has no resistance to intelligence and unknown news. He and Lin Feng are also familiar with each other, so when he saw Lin Feng come back, he licked his face and directly asked for information.

Lin Feng looked at Li Haomiao's expectant eyes and nodded slightly in his heart. Li Haomiao's reaction to him was quite normal, or in other words, only Li Haomiao was normal.

He thought for a while and then said: "Want some news about my journey?"

Li Haomiao nodded quickly.

"Exchange!" Lin Feng said lightly.

"what?"

Li Haomiao was stunned for a moment, then heard Lin Feng say: "Messages should be exchanged for messages, and intelligence should be exchanged for intelligence. Shouldn't it be?"

"Yes, yes, of course."

Li Haomiao finally reacted. He instantly understood what Lin Feng meant and said quickly: "Lin Sizheng, you don't know that a lot of things happened while you were away from Chang'an City."

"Pick something related to me or something important to talk about." Lin Feng said.

Li Haomiao hurriedly said: "The first thing is related to Lin Sizheng."

Lin Feng glanced at Li Haomiao and said, "Someone said I was fake?"

Li Haomiao was stunned for a moment: "How did Lin Sizheng know? This matter is strictly prohibited from being discussed in private."

Sure enough!

As he expected, when the Sixiang Organization saw that Kui Su had failed to intercept and kill him, they directly exposed their secrets and wanted to make their secrets thunderous.

But they never thought that their thunder had already been solved.

"I know this, so I'll exchange it for other information." Lin Feng said.

Li Haomiao opened his mouth and could only continue: "Something happened to Wang Shaoqing——"

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Lin Feng's voice: "I know too."

Li Haomiao: "...Lin Sizheng, are you really not in Chang'an during this time?"

Lin Feng laughed: "Come again."

The smile on Li Haomiao's face suddenly faded. He looked at Lin Feng seriously, as if he was facing a formidable enemy, and said, "I don't believe there is no news that Lin Si Zheng doesn't know..."

He took a deep breath and said: "Your Majesty has set a time. Half a month later, that is, on the eleventh day of next month, at the Hall of Ten Thousand Buddhas in the East Palace, Bopo, the eminent monk from Tianzhu in the Western Regions, will pray for His Highness."

"Senior Monk Popo of Tianzhu?" Lin Feng finally heard the information that he didn't know. His eyes flashed as he recalled what happened at Puguang Temple and said, "Has this eminent Monk Popo of Tianzhu come to Chang'an? Or does he still live in Puguang Temple?"

Li Haomiao nodded: "The eminent monk is still on the way. Wang Xuance, an official of Honglu Temple, and Demiao, the head of Bodhidharma Academy of Puguang Temple, will personally go to Tianzhu to greet him. He is expected to arrive in Chang'an in three days and will still stay at Puguang Temple."

Puguang Temple is related to the Four Symbols Organization. This Tianzhu eminent monk Popo was personally greeted by the eminent monk of Puguang Temple. Does this mean that... Popo is also related to the Four Symbols Organization?
However, Popo is an eminent monk from the Western Regions, and the Western Regions are the territory of the merchants in the Western Regions. Could this Popo also be related to the merchants in the Western Regions?
Or is it a coincidence that Popo's arrival is entirely the result of Li Shimin's love for his son? Is he overthinking it?
Lin Feng's eyes flickered and his brain was working rapidly.

Li Haomiao finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Lin Feng didn't say "I know it too". He regained his confidence and said, "I have another piece of news, I guarantee Lin Sizheng doesn't know about it."

Lin Feng looked at Li Haomiao and heard Li Haomiao take a deep breath and whisper: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince fell into a coma after meeting with His Royal Highness the King of Yue yesterday. All the doctors from the Imperial Medical Department were called to the East Palace overnight, but so far, , still no imperial doctor has left the East Palace."

"At the same time... the guards of the Yue Prince's Mansion were taken over by the Qianniu Guards, and His Highness the King of Yue was prohibited from leaving the Yue Prince's Mansion. There are rumors that it was His Royal Highness the Prince of Yue who harmed the Crown Prince for the sake of becoming the crown prince."

"His Majesty did not go to court this morning. Wei Gong requested to see His Majesty, but was refused... All the officials were in danger, even Duke Xiao sighed."

Zhao Xieyang's eyes widened, and his head was buzzing... The fight between the crown prince and the king of Yue for the right to inherit the throne, was this news that he could hear?
I don't deserve such information.

As for Lin Feng, his expression became a little more solemn.

He thought that the death of the young minister of Dali Temple was enough to cause chaos in the court, but now he realized that he was just the beginning.

The prince's coma is suspected to be related to the Yue King Li Tai... With just this sentence, you can imagine what kind of earthquake would happen in the Tang Dynasty court.

Lin Feng couldn't help but raise his head and glance at the gray sky above Chang'an City.

He couldn't help but think of a sentence: "The storm is coming... No, the storm has already come."
