Tang Dynasty detective

Chapter 59
Yang Lao didn't think about the subtlety of this, so he nodded and said: "Since you are a member of the Di family, it doesn't hurt to tell you about this matter."

Li Canghai's ears twitched instantly, thinking that the old man really had something to tell him, but he didn't know what made him so cautious.

"Old Yang, what do you want to tell this junior?"

Old Yang suddenly coughed violently. Seeing this, Li Canghai hurried forward to pat him on the back.

After breathing hard for a few breaths, Old Yang blushed a little, and said with difficulty: "This old man has kept this secret for decades, please listen to it."

Seeing his solemn expression, Li Canghai knew that something was unusual, so he hurriedly put his ear to him.

Elder Yang whispered in his ear that it would take almost a stick of incense. After Li Canghai listened, he felt struck by lightning, and was stunned.

After being stunned for a while, Li Canghai woke up from the shock. Many questions appeared in his mind. He was about to ask Mr. Yang for confirmation, but he found that Mr. Yang's head was down, his limbs were drooping, and he was already dead!
When Li Canghai walked to the lobby, everyone felt a little strange when they saw his expression was different.

Looking at Yang Su, Li Canghai said deeply, "Old Yang... has already gone west."

Yang Su's body shook a few times involuntarily, two lines of tears suddenly overflowed from his eyes, and he walked quickly towards the back hall.

"Cang Hai, what's going on? Why did Mr. Yang suddenly drive west?" Liang Xiu asked with a look of shock.

Li Canghai didn't answer him, but walked quickly to the bound He Xiao, stared at He Xiao, and said coldly: "He Xiao, is that painting of Huangfuwei in your hands?"

He Xiao had already made up his mind to deny it to death, so he naturally wouldn't admit it, so he hummed, "I don't know what to paint or not to paint."

Li Canghai grabbed He Xiao by the collar and shouted: "Stop pretending to be confused, only you and Hongyan are looking for treasures in this Luoyang city, Hongyan has paintings by the Yang family, and Huangfuwei's painting must be yours." It was stolen. Honestly hand over the painting, and I will protect your life, otherwise your life will be in danger if the matter is revealed!"

Li Canghai suddenly became angry, which startled everyone.

Even Di Qing was stunned on the spot, he always gave people a gentle and refined feeling, even when exposing the murderer, he never lost his temper.

Huangfu Kun, whose face had been gloomy all the time, came over, he pushed Li Canghai away, his eyes were fierce, he stared at He Xiao and said: "This general is not that patient, if you don't hand over the picture scroll, this general will let you You can't live, you can't die!"

He Xiao looked at them indifferently, with a sneer of disdain on the corner of his mouth: "If anything goes wrong with me, you will never get the picture scroll."

"You dare to threaten me?" Huangfu Kun suddenly grabbed his neck, his face became ferocious.

He Xiao's face was congested with blood, and his breathing became short of breath.

Li Canghai was worried that Huangfu Kun would really kill him, so he said in a deep voice, "General, this man holds a scroll in his hand, so he cannot die."

"Hmph, isn't it just a broken painting, I don't care about it. I won't give him any color, he really thinks this general is a vegetarian!"

Huangfukun fought on the battlefield all his life, how weak is the strength in his hands?He Xiao quickly rolled his eyes.

"General, haven't you heard Cang Hai's words?" At this moment, Di Qingfen's face became slightly cold.

"Girl, this is not your business... Oops!"

Huangfu Kun said without turning his head, but before he finished speaking, Di Qing stretched out two slender fingers like lightning and flicked his shoulders, Huangfu Kun suddenly let out a cry of pain, pinched He Xiao's hand suddenly Ma, instantly relaxed.

"Smelly girl, do you dare to attack this general?" Huangfu Kun turned around and glared at her, then roared viciously.

Di Qing's face seemed to be covered with frost, and she said each word with a pause: "Cang Hai said he couldn't die."

A seemingly invisible killing intent locked on Huangfu Kun, which made Huangfu Kun, who had fallen into a violent temper, wake up instantly. Although he was fighting in the battlefield, his skills were not bad, but compared with the masters in the world, there was still a big difference .

Although this girl Di Qing is young, she is also one of the best masters in the Jianghu. If Di Qing wants to kill him, it may only take a moment for the two of them to be so close.

Looking at the silent Huangfu Kun, Li Canghai smiled gratefully at Di Qing, and the frost on her face instantly melted, revealing a charming smile.

"I hope the general will forgive Qing'er for offending her, but this person cannot die." Li Canghai clasped his fists at Huangfu Kun and said solemnly.

Being planted in the hands of a yellow-haired girl, anyone would feel uncomfortable about this matter. Huangfu Kun was furious, so he naturally didn't want to pay attention to him, and stood there blowing his beard and staring.

Li Canghai hesitated for a moment, walked up to Huangfu Kun, and said a few words to him softly, Huangfu Kun's face instantly became serious.

"Is what you said true?" Huangfu Kun stared at him and asked.

"This matter was said by Mr. Yang himself, the general thinks it is true?" Li Canghai said with a serious face.

There was a trace of cold sweat on Huangfu Kun's forehead. He patted Li Canghai's shoulder and said gratefully: "Thanks to you stopping him in time, otherwise, I would have made a big mistake."

"General, can He Xiao be handed over to you?" Li Canghai asked.

"Naturally, I'll send you some elite soldiers to help you take care of this person." Huangfu Kun said in a long voice.

Li Canghai glanced at He Xiao, he was panting desperately, and it seemed that he still had trouble breathing.

He Xiao was imprisoned and guarded by elite soldiers guarding Luoyang together with yamen servants to prevent anyone from approaching him.

Li Canghai and Di Qing went back to Di's house, Li Canghai remained silent all the way, thinking about the secret Mr. Yang said all the time.

According to Mr. Yang, the surface of this picture is "The Journey of the Emperor Wu" painted by Yan Liben, but in fact there is a mystery hidden inside.

This picture hides a big secret. Once this secret is discovered, it will become the key to chaos in the world.

Back then, Wu Zetian usurped the Tang Dynasty and changed the name of the country to "Zhou". It can be said that it was all due to this secret.

When Di Renjie was prime minister, he had obtained this secret, so he entrusted this matter to Yan Liben and let him hide it in the painting.

When Di Renjie died, he divided the picture into two and handed it over to Yang Ling and Huangfu Yuan respectively, and the two loyal ministers, Wen and Wu, took care of it on their behalf.

As a veteran of the three dynasties, Yang Ling was highly respected. After hiding in Luoyang, he regarded the scroll as a treasure, but it has survived for decades.

However, Huangfu Yuan died on the battlefield, leaving only the scrolls, but did not tell his descendants the secrets.

Originally, Yang Ling planned to keep the secret and enter the coffin, but unexpectedly, a prodigal son, Yang Su, came out. In order to win a smile from the girl, he even stole the picture scroll.

He didn't decide to tell Li Canghai until he knew the truth and felt that the secret might have been known to others.
