Tang Dynasty detective

Chapter 352 Panlong Secret Guard
Lu Jitong smiled, picked up the silk, stroked it lightly, and said, "I don't know what your lord is talking about."

Li Canghai had guessed that he would deny it a long time ago, so he said lightly: "You are in a prison and don't know anything about the outside world. Don't you worry about accidents? Otherwise, why would she come here to deliver food in the middle of the night? ?”

Hearing this, Lu Jitong frowned suddenly.

Seeing this, Li Canghai knew that his guess was right, so he went on to say: "Lu Jitong, I want you to know that I am not trying to deal with you. What I am dealing with is the ronin of Sang Island. Regarding this point, we have the same goal."

Lu Jitong lowered his head and began to think, he could naturally hear the meaning of Li Canghai's words.

As the saying goes, the enemy of an enemy is a friend.

Since they both have a common goal, the two sides have an opportunity to cooperate.However, he was not sure whether Li Canghai's goals included them.

Li Canghai saw his worries, and said, "The reason why I deal with the ronin of Sang Island is because they have done a lot of evil. As long as you keep yourselves in order, I will never touch you."

Lu Jitong pondered for a while, and felt that Li Canghai had no reason to deal with them, so he said, "Please give me the sake, sir."

Seeing Lu Jitong acquiesce, Li Canghai hurriedly handed over the sake in his hand.

Lu Jitong unfolded the silk, and then sprinkled sake on the silk. After a while, a line of writing appeared on the white silk.

"The problem really appeared on the silk, and it turned out that sake was used to make it appear." Li Canghai said.

"I don't know, my lord, this is Dongying's 'Concealment Technique', and only by using specific drinks can the words appear." Lu Jitong explained.

Li Canghai nodded, and leaned closer, seeing that the Japanese characters appeared on the silk, he couldn't help frowning.

He doesn't know Japanese characters very well, but judging from the Chinese characters mixed in it, it can be seen that it seems to be related to the box.

Because there are words like 'box' and 'no trace' written on it.

And Lu Jitong's dignified expression seemed to explain this problem.

"What does it mean?" Li Canghai asked.

Lu Jitong's eyes were slightly cold, he suddenly took out a small token from his sleeve, and said seriously: "My lord, please let me go immediately."

Li Canghai took the token and looked at it carefully.

There is only a very simple word "Talk" on the token, and a dragon is engraved on the back.

Li Canghai recognized the logo, he frowned slightly, stared at Lu Ji and said, "Are you Panlong Secret Guard?"

Panlong Secret Guard is a spies formed by the emperor. It was originally under the direct command of the emperor, and it was dedicated to collecting the secrets of the civil and military ministers of the Manchu dynasty for the emperor.

However, since the emperor became addicted to wine and sex, this secret guard was handed over to Gao Lishi, and their duty changed from monitoring ministers to looking for the elixir of life.

"My lord, I had to hide something before, it was a last resort, but now the situation is serious, I have to leave the prison." Lu Jitong said solemnly.

Li Canghai looked at the token and said disapprovingly: "I can let you go, but you have to tell me what is written on it?"

"Forgive me, I have nothing to say. Since you know the Panlong Secret Guard, you should know that you have no right to be imprisoned by me. You are offended!" Lu Jitong slightly cupped his hands at him, and then he was about to step out of the cell.

"It is true that the magistrate of Zhengyang County has no right to detain you, but what about Dali Temple Minister?" Li Canghai did not stop him, but raised his voice and said calmly.

When Lu Jitong heard this, he immediately took back the steps he had just stepped out.

The Minister of Dali Temple is in charge of the prisons all over the world. Even the relatives of the emperor and the country are in awe of him.

"If you step out of the prison cell, it will be a crime of escape. You should think about it clearly." Li Canghai stared at him with his hands in his sleeves.

"Are you the Minister of Dali Temple?" Lu Jitong looked at him with a frown.

Li Canghai shrugged his shoulders, and said calmly, "Is there anyone else here? Unfortunately, I have just been promoted to Dali Temple Zhengqing. So, I am still the one who is interrogating you."

"How do I know if what you said is true or not?" Lu Jitong suddenly had a look of fear in his eyes.

Li Canghai took out a seal from his bosom, and stamped a pattern in his hand. Lu Jitong looked at the pattern carefully, and found that it was indeed the seal of Zhengqing of Dali Temple, and hurriedly knelt down.

"Sir Panlongwei is paying tribute to your lord!" Lu Jitong's attitude suddenly became respectful.

"Get up, I still have that question, what do the Japanese characters on the silk mean?" Li Canghai asked calmly.

Lu Jitong hesitated, and after a while he said: "Now that the matter is up to now, there is no need to hide it anymore. My lord should know that Panlong secret guards were sent to search for the elixir of life. Just because I have been to Dongying, Yueyue Before Yu, I received a letter from General Gao, asking me to go to Yangzhou to pick up a group of Dongying people. When I picked them up, I found that the leader was my old acquaintance in Dongying, Fujiwara Kyoko."

With his hands behind his back, Li Canghai listened carefully to Lu Jitong's narration.

"What about after that?"

"Xingzi carries a brocade box with her. The brocade box is called 'Amaterasu Treasure Box'. It is said that it contains the secret of ascension to immortality. It is the most precious treasure of Dongying. It was only because of the rebellion in Dongying that Xingzi brought the brocade box to the Central Plains. I Ben was ordered to escort them to Chang'an, but they were hunted down by Dongying killers all the way. After a fierce battle, we lost contact. Fortunately, I told Xingzi that I was from Zhengyang County, which made us in Zhengyang Counties gathered."

Li Canghai nodded and said, "I already know about this matter, you booked an inn for them to hide."

"That's right, but it didn't take long before the Dongying killer arrived. Afterwards, the adults thought I had killed Tao Zhaoxue and sent me to prison. At that time, when I heard that the Holy Majesty was coming to Luoyang, I thought of using the county government to contain the Dongying killer. Send the brocade box to Luoyang and give it to General Gao."

Speaking of this, Lu Jitong's tone suddenly became extremely admirable. He looked at Li Canghai and said, "It can be said that what you guessed before, your lord, is absolutely right. I used the constant wind to spread false news in brocade boxes, and attracted the wanderers from Sang Island to come. At the same time, Xingzi sent people to meet with the Panlong secret guard sent by General Gao, and the brocade box can be safely delivered to Luoyang."

"You thought that Chang Feng had restrained the Sang Island Ronin, but unexpectedly, an accident happened. The Sang Island Ronin saw through your plan and took away the brocade box?" Li Canghai frowned slightly.

Lu Jitong sighed, shook his head and said, "Xingzi only said that the brocade box was missing, but it's not known whether it was acquired by the rogues from Sang Island."

Li Canghai paced back and forth for a few steps, and pondered, "Even if I let you go, you still don't know where the brocade box is. Rather than looking around aimlessly, it's better to start with the rogues of Sang Island and see if they got it." brocade box."
