Tang Dynasty detective

Chapter 330
After everyone sat down, Di Huai poured a glass of wine and said with a smile, "Cang Hai, you have jumped from Jiupin County Magistrate to Dali Temple Minister. In the history of the Tang Dynasty, you are No. 1! Come, let me offer you a toast !"

Li Canghai smiled calmly and said, "Brother Di, didn't you also jump from a county magistrate to a feudal official? This No.1 title in history, I dare not enjoy it to myself!"

"It's not thanks to you. If it weren't for you, how could I be where I am today? Come on, do it!" Di Huai seemed to be in a good mood, and laughed.

Several people quickly toasted and staggered together.

"My lord, I have one thing I don't know. According to Brother Zhang, Kang Xu who led our investigation in Zhengyang County was actually pretended by the lord. What's going on?" Xiao Wu asked a little drunk, These questions have been bothering him, making him puzzled.

Li Canghai put down his wine glass and said, "It all started on the night when I was assassinated. That day I left the Futian courtyard, and was ambushed by an assassin on the way and fell into a coma. Brother Zhang once said that weapons are poisonous when he was treating me. But I was not poisoned, so I thought it would be better to take this opportunity to fake death and make everyone think that I was really poisoned and passed out."

"That's right, my lord was indeed poisoned, but the toxin didn't enter his body, but was discharged out by himself. I thought it was strange at the time, but after talking with him, I found out that your lord had eaten a food called 'Thoreau'. Guo's miraculous fruit has long been invulnerable to all poisons, so I came up with this plan." Zhang Xuanming said with a smile.

Li Canghai nodded, and continued: "That night, I secretly sent someone to Luoyang to find He Xiao, who is best at disguise in the Gopher Sect, and asked him to go to Zhengyang in a starry night, and made this picture in the image of A Xu. mask."

As he said that, Li Canghai took out an exquisite human skin mask from his bosom, Xiao Wu took it and looked at it, and was immediately surprised.

This mask was made so lifelike that it was exactly Kang Xu's appearance, enough to confuse the fake with the real one.

"After exchanging identities with A Xu, I can investigate the secret of 'Ni Lin Xuan Wu' in an open and honest manner. As expected, I finally found an opportunity and successfully sneaked into their side." Li Canghai took a sip of his drink, wiped He pursed his lips and said.

"It's no wonder the lord left behind three kits, it turns out that the lord has always been by our side." Chang Feng said with emotion.

"Those three kits were just to confuse Di Hentian, but I didn't expect their plan to be carried out ahead of schedule, but fortunately you discovered the secret and went to Jinshui to invite Brother Di in time, otherwise it would be really hard to catch Liu Tong is a big fish." Li Canghai said happily.

"My lord, I still don't understand. The kit you left reminded us to go to Jinshui County to find Lord Di. How do you know that Lord Di has evidence of Liu Tong's rebellion?" Zhang Xuan took a sip of wine, asked curiously.

Li Canghai smiled slightly. Before he could speak, Di Huai took over the words and said, "These are all obtained by Canghai from my secret investigation, but it is also thanks to Zhao Yuan's help in secret, otherwise I would not be able to find out in time. That evidence."

"Zhao Yuan?" Li Canghai was a little surprised. Zhao Yuan was an official of the Ministry of Industry in Duji Province. He had helped Li Canghai to control the flood of the Yellow River, so he was no stranger.

It's just that he didn't expect that these evidences came from his hands, and Li Canghai was filled with emotion. Although the Tang government is corrupt now, there are still many loyal and upright people.

"Actually, from the moment Liang Xiu died, I had doubts. Liang Xiu joined the 'Ni Lin Xuan Wu' not because he was coerced, but because he cared too much about his confidante, Fen Er. The reason why he entrusted Fen Er to I was just worried that 'Ni Lin Xuan Wu' would tear up the promise, but based on my understanding of him, he would never commit suicide easily. If a person has something in his heart, he will cherish his own life. Liang Xiu cares about fans so much, How could he commit suicide? But I had a confrontation with 'Nilin Xuanwu', so I couldn't go to investigate, so I secretly entrusted this matter to Brother Di." Li Canghai said.

"My lord, why did you choose Master Di instead of someone else?" Chang Feng asked puzzledly, blinking his eyes.

Li Canghai took a sip of his drink, narrowed his eyes and said, "There are three reasons for this. First, Jinshui County is not under the jurisdiction of Duji Province. Second, brother Di is good at reasoning and solving cases and has rich experience in handling cases. Third, I only Know him as an honest official."

"I understand. Jinshui County is far away from Duji Road. No matter how cautious Liu Tong is, he would never have thought that Lord Di, who is far away in Jinshui, is investigating him. Your lord's secret trick on Chen Cang is really clever!" Zhang Xuanming admired him very much. said.

"It's a pity that Di Hentian ran away, and the manipulator behind the 'Ni Lin Xuan Wu' has not yet shown up. All this is not over yet." Li Canghai pondered.

Li Canghai's words made everyone fall into deep thought. He was right, Di Hentian escaped, and the mastermind behind the scenes was unknown. On the surface, it seemed that the case of treason was clear, but in fact it was more complicated and confusing.

"Speaking of which, I really want to thank Brother Zhang. If Brother Zhang hadn't prepared the drug for me, I would have been chopped into meat sauce in a deserted village. Brother Zhang, Canghai toasts you!" Li Canghai cheered up. Spirit, smiled at Zhang Xuanming.

Li Canghai is easy-going, he doesn't put on airs like a lord, so everyone laughed, and then chattered happily.

"My lord, we caught a Japanese assassin in Zhengyang, and now he is being imprisoned, do you want to interrogate him?" Xiao Wu suddenly said.

"Eastern Assassin?" Li Canghai's first reaction was Ryosuke Miyamoto, because in the palace, Li Canghai did not find Miyamoto Ryosuke. Now that he heard that they had captured the Eastern Assassin, Li Canghai immediately thought of him.

"But Ryosuke Miyamoto?" Li Canghai asked.

"Exactly. How did you know the identity of the assassin, my lord?" Xiao Wu asked in surprise.

"Miyamoto Ryosuke is a master of martial arts, how did you catch him?"

"My lord, Miyamoto Ryosuke was not captured by us, but was captured and sent to the gate of the yamen." Xiao Wu said.

"Oh? There are other things like this? Do you know who is helping in secret?" Li Canghai touched his nose and asked in doubt.

"I don't know about this, but there was a note on Miyamoto Ryosuke at the time, please read it, sir." Xiao Wu took out a note from his arms and handed it to Li Canghai.

Li Canghai took the note and read it carefully.

There was a sentence written on the note: Assassin from Japan, headed by the traitor.

The handwriting on the note is beautiful, and it can be seen that it was written by a woman.

"If my guess is correct, the person who captured Ryosuke Miyamoto was Xue Xuan." Li Canghai thought deeply.

"Miss Xue?" Several people were stunned at the same time.

Chang Feng suddenly realized and nodded, and said: "That's right, after the Lichunfang caught fire, Miss Xue thought that the Lord died in the sea of ​​fire, and she once said that she would avenge the Lord. In this way, Miss Xue must have caught the Dongying assassin."
