People are in Zhenguan, solving crimes scientifically

Chapter 237 Lin Feng’s speculation! Xiao Yu's scalp is numb!

Seeing that Lin Feng was deep in thought because of his big news, Li Haomiao couldn't help but look around, and then whispered: "What exactly this matter is about has not yet been determined, and all the officials are keeping their mouths shut. I don’t dare to say nonsense, lest I offend the holy face, so Lin Simasa must not spread it to anyone else. I respect and trust Lin Sizheng from the bottom of my heart, so I told this news. Other senior officials don’t dare to say it. After all, this is a beheading. event."

Listening to Li Haomiao's words, Lin Feng calmed down his chaotic thoughts and glanced at him.

When he saw Lin Feng's dark eyes, Li Haomiao suddenly had the illusion that he had seen through everything, which made him feel guilty and his eyes wandered.

Seeing this scene, Lin Feng immediately understood what it meant to respect and trust him. Li Haomiao clearly couldn't hold back his desire to share gossip and maintain his image as an all-knowing Dali Temple spy, so he told himself this.

However, he still had to accept Li Haomiao's feelings. After all, the news was really extraordinary. He thought about it and said: "Both of your news are very heavy. I don't have news of equal weight to tell you, so I I can let you know everything I have experienced along the way... You are the first person to know all this. If you share it with others, you should get some surprises. "

When Li Haomiao heard this, his gossipy eyes suddenly shone brightly.

He hurriedly said: "The news does not matter, only the number of people who know it. The less people know the news, the more important it is."

Able to speak... Lin Feng nodded, and then he turned to look at Zhao Xieyang and said: "Zhao County Lieutenant, you have heard about what I have experienced along the way and witnessed it with your own eyes, so it is up to you to explain it." Li Si Cheng tells it, remember..."

Lin Feng reminded: "Don't add fuel to the fire. Don't talk nonsense about things that haven't happened. Just talk about what has happened. Just tell it normally. Li Sicheng will judge for himself what is important and what is not important."

With a flick of the brush, the cinnabar pen that was writing suddenly stopped. Xiao Yu looked at the dossier's head and raised it instantly.

He hurriedly saluted and said: "Lin Si is rest assured, the official will tell Li Si Cheng everything that Lin Si is going through in detail, without adding any exaggeration or jealousy."

At this moment, Zhao Xieyang finally understood Lin Feng's status and reputation in Dali Temple.

Lin Feng looked at Xiao Yu carefully and said with a chuckle: "With so many things happening in Chang'an, I have to hurry up and come back to share my worries with Xiao Gong, so we didn't rest at night and kept rushing."

Although Lin Feng knew that he had a chance to win the position of Shaoqing, he did not expect that Xiao Yu would directly recommend him by name without consulting him. This was undoubtedly because of his determination from the beginning in a complicated situation. He stood here.

Now that he heard Lin Feng's words, the thoughtful Bagua expert suddenly understood... Zhao Xieyang was Lin Feng's right-hand man. In other words, he was the confidant Lin Feng had trained. Otherwise, if he wanted him to come to Dali Temple, he would directly A paper transfer order is enough, so there is no need for Lin Feng to bring it in person and introduce it to himself, the temple minister.

Lin Feng pushed the door open and saw Xiao Yu sitting behind a desk in a familiar office room, flipping through files without raising his head.

Lin Feng thought for a moment and said, "About the fight for the position of Shaoqing?"

For smart people, when encountering sharp and complicated things, they usually stand on the sidelines and will not rush into the situation. They will only join in when they can get a glimpse of the clear situation or are sure of victory.

People who are good at inquiring about information have an exquisite heart. Knowing that Zhao Xieyang will be Lin Feng's confidant in the future, Li Haomiao immediately showed a warm smile and said with a smile: "It turns out to be Brother Zhao. You followed Lin Si to Dali Temple." , then we will all be colleagues. Lin Sizheng still has important matters to attend to, so let me take you to get familiar with Dali Temple. Let’s take a walk. You tell me about Lin Sizheng’s deeds along the way, and I will guide you at the same time. Take a walk.”

He said: "Yes, it is indeed a matter of the position of Shaoqing. Wang Shaoqing died, the position of Shaoqing is vacant, and countless pairs of eyes are staring at this position."

Xiao Yu nodded, shook his head, and said: "It is related to this matter, but it is not entirely this matter."

Xiao Yu laughed: "I really can't hide anything from you. Although you are not in Chang'an, I'm afraid you know what happened in Chang'an, right?"

Lin Feng's eyes moved and he looked at the tired look on Xiao Yu's face. He already had a guess in his mind. He said, "Is it about my secret being exposed by the Four Elephants Organization?"

Li Haomiao put his arm around Zhao Xieyang's shoulders and left with a smile on his face.

After all, if you enter the game from the beginning, you will inevitably become a thorn in the eyes of others, and then suffer the open and covert attacks of various hostile forces. You can even be easily used by skilled chess players to become a target, attracting the attention of others, and doing things for real chess players. Wedding dress, so no matter how you look at it, it is not a wise move.

With Lin Feng's words, Zhao Xieyang felt relieved. He has a positive heart. Now that he has the opportunity to get to know his colleagues and become familiar with the environment, he will naturally not let it go.

Zhao Xieyang's mind was sharp. When he heard Lin Feng's reminder, he immediately understood the implication of Lin Feng's words. Lin Feng was telling him not to talk about speculations about the Four Elephants Organization, the Jinchai Family and other forces, and only to pick on Lin Feng's people in Linshui County and Shenshan County. Just investigate the case and have a back-and-forth fight with the Four Symbols organization.

Xiao Yu listened to Lin Feng's words with a happy smile on his face: "Okay, okay, okay, if you have this kind of thought, it will be worth the pressure I have been putting on you during this time."

This made Zhao Xieyang stunned, but soon, as he was well versed in the world, he understood that Li Haomiao's enthusiasm for him was not because of him at all, but because of Lin Feng.

"Even on the day of Wang Shaoqing's accident, an official suggested to His Majesty that a new Shaoqing should be appointed as soon as possible... In the end, His Majesty scolded him, but the various factions and forces in the court did not give up their thoughts because of this. On the contrary, because the choice of Shaoqing was pending, he felt that he had a chance, so he continued to fight openly and secretly. "

But his brows were furrowed and the cinnabar pen in his hand remained motionless for a while, which made Lin Feng realize that Xiao Yu seemed to be reviewing the files, but in fact his thoughts were already racing.

Lin Feng listened quietly without interrupting.

After saying that, Li Haomiao directly put his arms around Zhao Xieyang's shoulders, as enthusiastically as if the two were half-brothers who had not seen each other for many years.

Lin Feng raised his hand and knocked on the door.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Xiao Yu's thoughts turned back, but he still did not raise his head. The cinnabar pen in his hand finally landed on the file and he was annotating it.

When Li Haomiao heard Lin Feng's words, a flash of light suddenly flashed in his small eyes. He had actually noticed Zhao Xieyang when he came here, but Lin Feng didn't introduce Zhao Xieyang. He didn't know the other person's identity. He didn't know how to address his stance, so he just pretended that he didn't pay attention to the other party.

Not long after, a familiar, slightly tired voice came from the room: "Come in."

"When His Majesty saw this, he knew that he could not wait for the case to be solved before appointing a new young minister, so he also began to look for candidates. Since this is my official position in Dali Temple, His Majesty also asked my opinion."

In other words, say what should be said, but not a word of what should not be said.

"Although you have just assumed the post of Chief of Dali Temple, you have solved many unsolved cases in a short period of time. You also solved the murder case of an envoy in the East Palace, protected His Highness the Crown Prince, and restored the image of the Tang Dynasty. You have made great achievements, and everyone in the world doesn’t know your abilities. Therefore, in my opinion, you are fully qualified to take over Wang Shaoqing’s position.”

When he saw Lin Feng standing in front of the table, there was a hint of astonishment on his tired face at first, and then a smile quickly appeared on his face, and his tired eyes finally became bright: "Why so fast? I thought you would at least have to It won’t arrive until tomorrow morning.”

Seeing that Zhao Xieyang understood what he meant, Lin Feng nodded. He looked at Li Haomiao and introduced: "Li Sicheng, this is Zhao Xieyang, the county lieutenant of Shenshan County. I got him while investigating the case in Shenshan County." After a lot of help, I found that he has quick thinking and outstanding abilities, and is a good prospect, so I brought him back and prepared him to join Dali Temple. "

Lin Feng, on the other hand, went straight to Xiao Yu's office without further delay.

"Mr. Xiao, I'm back." Lin Feng said with a smile.

"Dong dong dong."

Soon, the three of them separated.

"what's up?"

It was Lin Feng who brought him here, and it was Lin Feng who introduced him to Li Haomiao, so the dignified sixth-grade Prime Minister of Dali Temple could regard him as a biological brother.

He looked at Lin Feng and saw Lin Feng smiling and saying: "Go with Li Si Cheng, familiarize yourself with the environment first, and then I will discuss with Xiao Si Qing and see how we can make arrangements for you."

Xiao Yu looked at Lin Feng and said, "I recommended you."

But Xiao Yu, who has always been calm and rational, even though he knew this, still unequivocally supported himself when Li Shimin asked him for his opinion, allowing him to directly enter Li Shimin's sight, thus becoming qualified to compete for the position of Shaoqing. Lin Feng was indescribably moved by his deep love and affection for him.

Xiao Yu really regarded him as a relative.

Lin Feng took a deep breath and said sincerely: "Mr. Xiao is worried about the boy."

Xiao Yu only heard this sentence and knew that Lin Feng was very clear about his efforts and risks. He shook his head and said: "It's nothing to worry about. If I can really make you a young prince, it will be great for you and my Xiao family." It’s a good thing.”

"only……"

Xiao Yu paused for a moment, then his face turned ugly, and said: "It's just that I didn't expect that the Four Symbols organization would attack you at this critical moment and directly expose your secret."

"If in normal times, your secret is exposed, your Majesty knows it, we know it, and we are fully prepared, so it won't have much impact on you at all."

"However, in the critical period of competing for the title of Young Master, your secret is exposed at this time, and the meaning is completely different."

Lin Feng's eyes flickered a few times and he said, "Is this a reason for other competitors and the forces behind me to criticize me?"

Xiao Yu nodded: "They said that you are not an official of the Tang Dynasty. Even if you have made a lot of achievements, it is not enough to change your non-official nature. Therefore, you are not an official, so naturally you are not qualified to compete for the position of Shaoqing." Bit."

"Some people say that you know that you are fake and still claim this identity. You are greedy and deliberately deceive the emperor. They even asked your majesty to punish you for deceiving the emperor."

Lin Feng narrowed his eyes and said with a half-smile: "It's interesting. Attack me with this point and prevent me from competing with them for the position of Shaoqing. This is normal and I can understand it... but I ask your Majesty to punish me for the crime of deceiving the emperor. You really want me to die. I wonder which colleagues hate me so much?”

Xiao Yu glanced at Lin Feng and said, "Don't be surprised. Most of the people who said these words are relatives and friends of the real culprits who were found by you. Find out the truth, find out the real culprits, and deal with the victims." To everyone in the world, it is a happy and good thing, but to the relatives and friends of these real murderers, it is a painful thing. They cannot blame their relatives and friends for committing crimes and killing people, they can only blame you for being nosy. ”

Lin Feng sneered: "I see, no wonder they hate me so much. It turns out that I am nosy. It's just a pity that I just like to meddle in other people's business. The more they do this, the more I feel that I am doing the right thing." "

Xiao Yu understood Lin Feng's jealous temper. He said: "This is why I keep telling you that if you have the opportunity, you must seize every opportunity you can to get promoted. Only in this way can you take care of these nosy things as much as you want."

Lin Feng nodded. He was not stupid. He saw these things very clearly. He said: "Should I say it or not, their reasons are actually not a problem. They can indeed have a fatal blow to me... But I I heard that discussions about me have been strictly prohibited?”

"Did you really just come back? Do you know this news?"

Xiao Yu nodded: "Seeing that the attacks on you are getting more and more intense, I'm afraid if you don't stop it, not only will you face a crisis, but it will also cause problems in the plan we have prepared for a long time against the Four Elephants Organization, so I, Dai Shangshu, and Doctor Wei asked for a meeting. Your Majesty, I hope your Majesty will come forward."

"Finally, His Majesty summoned all the officials and said directly and succinctly that he had known about you for a long time, and that you still stayed in Dali Temple as Lin Feng, the former Prime Minister of Dali Temple. This was also His Majesty's order. You were doing things under a secret order." "Yes. After receiving His Majesty's explanation, even if His Majesty did not say what your mission was, it still blocked the mouths of all officials. In order to prevent anyone from picking on you behind your back and affecting our overall situation of the Four Elephants organization, His Majesty personally ordered that it is strictly prohibited. Anyone who criticizes you behind your back will be severely punished.”

He looked at Lin Feng and said: "So far, the scandal of your secret being exposed has been solved, but it still has some impact on you. You entered the officialdom abnormally, and your time as an official was only a few months. This People who were originally neutral towards you will feel that your time as an official is too short and you do not have rich official experience to be worthy of the important task of Shaoqing, and then they start to oppose you. "

After listening to Xiao Yu's story, Lin Feng was silent for a moment, then exhaled and said: "The so-called reason for objection is actually that I feel that my entrance method is different from theirs, I am not the same type of person as them, and I have only been a few months old. , you have the opportunity to jump from a humble commoner to two major ranks and become the much-anticipated fourth-rank Dali Temple young minister. Are you jealous of me? "

Xiao Yu put down the cinnabar pen in his hand and smiled: "I knew that even if I beautify these, you can still see the essence at a glance."

He looked at Lin Feng and said with a smile: "After listening to what I said, what do you think?"

Listening to Xiao Yu's words, Lin Feng showed a rare hint of unruliness. He said: "I am a soft-spoken person but not a tough person. Whoever doesn't like me will do whatever I want... So, since they don't want me to be from a humble background." If my commoners surpass them, then I will have to reach a position that makes them envious but not afraid to hate!”

"Mr. Xiao..."

Lin Feng took a deep breath and said solemnly: "I want to become the Young Minister of Dali Temple, for my support, your support, and for everyone who supports me and trusts me."

What Xiao Yu was waiting for was Lin Feng's words. Lin Feng was the protagonist in the fight for the young minister of Dali Temple. No matter how much he did for Lin Feng, if Lin Feng didn't have the idea of ​​​​stopping the God of Killing, it would be useless no matter how much he did.

He smiled and said: "Then do it!"

"How to do it?" Lin Feng asked.

Xiao Yu picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for himself and Lin Feng.

He asked Lin Feng to sit down, pushed the tea cup in front of Lin Feng, then picked up his own tea cup, blew the white air on it gently, and said: "You have my full support, and the approval of Dai Shangshu and Doctor Wei. You already have a background that is not weaker than others, but due to this secret incident, the number of people who oppose you has increased, and now there are only three of us supporting you, which is no longer enough. "

"So, you now have two paths going at once."

"One, find more people to support you. With your potential today, I believe there will still be people willing to stand by you."

"another……"

Xiao Yu took a sip of tea and said: "Continue to make meritorious deeds and make greater merits!"

He looked at Lin Feng and said: "Speaking of a thousand, speaking of ten thousand, why can others stop you? Is it because your contribution is not so great that they can't even open their mouths to object?"

"If you can add one or two more credits to the East Palace Envoy case, I think if anyone dares to oppose you, the first one to stand up and scold them bloody must be His Majesty! Your Majesty has always made clear rewards and punishments, and your merits If you still oppose it when it has reached the level of promotion, you are challenging the principles that His Majesty has always adhered to. "

For meritorious service without background, whether the credit is useful is just a word from the powerful. But for meritorious service with background, one merit can be magnified dozens of times.

Xiao Yu made it very clear that it would be enough to solve two more cases at the level of the East Palace Envoy Case.

And a case like this...

Lin Feng's eyes flashed, he already understood what Xiao Yu meant.

Xiao Yu turned around in such a big circle just for one thing.

Lin Feng looked at Xiao Yu and said, "Mr. Xiao wants me to solve the case of Wang Shaoqing's murder and the case of His Highness the Crown Prince's coma?"

Xiao Yu, who was originally smiling, was stunned for a moment after hearing Lin Feng's words.

"How do you know that His Royal Highness is in coma?"

Xiao Yu was still waiting for Lin Feng to ask him to give him a clear path, but who knew that Lin Feng would tell him directly.

Lin Feng smiled and said: "Mr. Xiao doesn't need to worry about how I know it. Mr. Xiao only needs to tell me, yes or no?"

Xiao Yu looked at Lin Feng's penetrating black eyes and sighed helplessly: "I can't hide any secrets in front of you."

"Yes, I hope you can take the initiative to fight for these two cases and solve them."

"Take the initiative to fight for it?"

Lin Feng keenly caught the anomaly in Xiao Yu's words and said, "What does Mr. Xiao mean by taking the initiative to fight for it?"

Xiao Yu put down his teacup and his face became serious. He sat upright and looked at Lin Feng, saying: "Wang Shaoqing has been murdered for five days. Naturally, the court will not ignore it. Originally, the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple were responsible for investigating this matter, but because of Wang Shaoqing's case occurred in the jurisdiction of Chang'an County, so Chang'an County Magistrate Zhou Helin took the initiative to ask Ying to investigate. Wei Guogong detailed to His Majesty the mysterious cases that Zhou Helin had investigated and believed that Zhou Helin had the ability to find out the truth, so he also supported Zhou Helin's investigation. "

"As a result, this case fell into the hands of Zhou Helin. Zhou Helin has been investigating for almost five days now, but I haven't heard that he will solve the case immediately. In other words... you still have a chance."

Lin Feng touched his chin and said, "Master Xiao is asking me to take the credit."

Xiao Yu said calmly: "The case is placed there. Whoever can solve it will get the credit. This is a matter entirely based on ability. How can it be called taking credit? Not to mention that Wang Shaoqing is the young minister of my Dali Temple. Something happened to him Well, as the chief of Dali Temple who has the strongest investigation ability, it is not a matter of course for him to investigate the case? "

As soon as Lin Feng heard Xiao Yu's words, he knew that Xiao Yu had obviously thought about this matter for a long time and was waiting for him to come back.

He was moved in his heart and asked, "Magistrate Zhou also wants to compete for Shaoqing's position?"

Xiao Yu said: "His rank is the same as yours, fifth rank, and they are both on the prison. Do you think he wants to climb up? Not to mention, his background is more powerful than yours. Wei Guogong is his His mentor, Duke Wei supports him, and few people can match him in terms of background. His chances are very high, how can he give up this opportunity? "

Lin Feng understood that this was no longer just a simple investigation, but also an open and covert struggle behind the position of Shaoqing.

He pondered for a moment: "I understand. I will take the initiative to ask Ying to investigate this matter. I hope Xiao Siqing will approve it at that time."

Xiao Yu waited for Lin Feng to say this, and he smiled and said: "I, Dali Temple, should take revenge on myself, why not let others take revenge? It seems that I, Dali Temple, are very incompetent."

This is also a personal emotion... Lin Feng smiled and said, "I understand that I will do my best to find the real culprit who killed Wang Shaoqing."

Then, Lin Feng said another thing: "What about the prince's coma?"

When Xiao Yu heard this, his expression became more serious.

He looked at Lin Feng and said, "No one will argue with you about the investigation. Even if His Majesty appoints you, they will refuse with all their strength."

"I believe you have also heard the rumors. It is said that this matter involves the contest between the King of Yue and the Crown Prince. Needless to say, the Crown Prince is orthodox to the East Palace, and the King of Yue is His Majesty's favorite heir, and his status is not that of other princes. match."

"Now this case is caught between them. No matter whose problem is investigated in the end, it will be very difficult."

"Therefore, unless His Majesty firmly asks someone to investigate, no one will be willing to take over this hot potato."

Listening to Xiao Yu's words, Lin Feng felt in his heart how difficult this case was. This was definitely the most special and difficult case among all the cases he had encountered.

"Since this case is so hot, why does Mr. Xiao want me to take the initiative to fight for it?" Lin Feng asked.

Xiao Yu looked at Lin Feng seriously and said: "On the one hand, I believe in your ability, and you will definitely be able to find out the truth. Others only think about the difficulty of the result, but ignore the most important thing... that is For Your Majesty, whether His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's coma is a fratricide is far more important than anything else. As long as you can come to a conclusion, Your Majesty will never ignore your contribution. "

"on the other hand……"

Xiao Yu took a deep breath and said: "You have no choice! As long as you want to truly win the position of Shaoqing, this is the only chance you can see at the moment! You may say that there is also the Four Elephants Organization, But we are not sure when they will take action, and we are not sure whether we can really stop them, so the case of Donggong is the most obvious and suitable for you now. "

Lin Feng understood what Xiao Yu meant. He had an active brain and a smart mind, and could see many things further than Xiao Yu.

So Xiao Yu only mentioned it a little, and Lin Feng could understand.

Only this time, Lin Feng did not nod directly and said that he was going to investigate the East Palace case.

Instead, he looked at Xiao Yu and said, "Mr. Xiao, I want to know something."

"What?" Xiao Yu looked at Lin Feng in confusion.

Then I heard Lin Feng say: "I want to know... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in coma and the crisis caused by my secret is resolved. Which one is in front and which one is behind?"

Xiao Yu frowned and said, "The disturbance you secretly caused was resolved by His Majesty yesterday afternoon, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince fell into a coma last night."

Lin Feng nodded and said thoughtfully: "In other words, my problem was solved yesterday afternoon and I had the opportunity to compete for the position of Shaoqing again. However, because my secret was exposed, many neutrals opposed me. My hope was slim... But at this moment, not long after, the prince fell into coma, suspected to be the work of the King of Yue, so no one in the government or the public dared to wade into this muddy water, and because I wanted to compete for the position of Shaoqing, this was my The only clear opportunity for meritorious service."

"That is to say, I will definitely investigate this case..."

At this point, Lin Feng raised his head and looked at Xiao Yu, who frowned and seemed to understand Lin Feng's meaning, and said: "Mr. Xiao, don't you think this is tailor-made for me? Do you think this is a coincidence? ?Or……"

He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Did someone prepare this case for me?"
