Dali Temple Small Dining Room

  Chapter 181 Bamboo Rice (4)

  Xun Zhou opened his mouth and was about to speak when a familiar voice came from the forest not far away.

   "Maybe it's about your father!"

  This voice...Wen Mingtang twitched the corners of his mouth, and looked along with Xun Zhou. Someone came out of the bushes in the mountain.

  He was dressed in riding clothes, with a bow on his back. He looked like he was hunting in the mountains, but...Wen Mingtang looked at his empty waist: Hunting with only a bow and no arrows?

  This Lin Shaoqing, who is a master at solving crimes, should pretend to be decent even if he pretends!

  Because Lin Fei was not wearing an official robe, Xun Zhou was not sure of his identity for a while, and subconsciously turned his head to look at Wen Mingtang.

  Wen Mingtang said: "This is Lin Shaoqing from my Dali Temple."

As soon as these words came out, Xun Zhou's face changed suddenly, and this reaction fell into Wen Mingtang's eyes, and he said "Sure enough", this Xun Zhou really came to Chang'an City early, otherwise he would not know Lin Fei's name .

  Compared to the sudden change in Xun Zhou's face, Lin Fei looked calm. He nodded towards Xun Zhou and said, "Lin Fei."

  Xun Zhou who came back to his senses hastily took a step back, bowed to Lin Fei with his hands, and said, "Lin Shaoqing!"

  Lin Fei gave a "hmm", looked at Xun Zhou in front of him, looked at him for a while, and said, "Xun Zhou?"

It was another person who took the initiative to reveal his identity without him having to say anything. There was a trace of helplessness on Xunzhou's face, but he still answered "Yes", and then said: "My husband and I came to Chang'an half a month ago. , I have been inquiring about Miss Mingtang these days, but fortunately, my hard work paid off, and I finally found out!"

  So, it is no coincidence that Wang Hetong Xunzhou will appear here this time.

Wen Mingtang looked at Xunzhou, and asked again: "So, why did you find me on purpose? Is it for my father's business?" When he said "for my father's business", Wen Mingtang glanced at Lin Fei who suddenly appeared .

Lin Fei said: "Recently, I heard that Wang He took him to find a few officials who had a good relationship with your father but were not implicated and asked about the past, so I guessed that his search for you was related to this matter. "

  Since Lin Fei had reached this point, Xun Zhou hesitated for a moment, but simply admitted it: "Lin Shaoqing is right, I came here for this matter."

  The **** the opposite side tilted her head, looked at Xun Zhou, and waited for his next words.

"When the teacher had an accident, I went out to visit my sister and brother-in-law but did not return. Because my brother-in-law was a parent official in a local place, it was inconvenient to leave without reason, so I rushed back to Chang'an by myself. It's a pity..." Xun Zhou sighed and his eyes twitched. Hong, "I didn't even have time to see the teacher for the last time."

   It took only half a month for Wen Xuance to start the project and the accident happened, and it took ten days and a half months for the news to reach brother-in-law Xunzhou. How could we see him in time when we rushed back to Chang'an?

Wen Mingtang didn't take this seriously, and she said frankly: "If you had gone to see my father at that time, maybe you would have been arrested and interrogated with me." Having said that, she waved her hand and said, "It was always like that at that time. Of course, one can be less involved. If you feel guilty about this, you don't have to!"

Seeing the girl's free and easy appearance, Xunzhou couldn't help sighing again, and said with emotion: "Although the teacher looked serious on the face back then, on the inside, he has the same temperament as sister Mingtang. !"

  Lin Fei glanced at Xun Zhou who was feeling emotional, and said, "You've said a little less—arrogance!"

   It is precisely because of this arrogance that it is easy to offend people!

  Xun Zhou heard the words, smiled wryly and said, "What Lin Shaoqing said is true!"

   Talented and proud people are like Wen Xuance and Wang He. The difference is that Wang He did not step into the official career because of that arrogance, and became a celebrity. To Wang He, this arrogance, not only will not damage him, but it will add a bit of celebrity to him. In the officialdom, if this arrogance meets some people, it will become a deadly existence. I am afraid that I will not know when I offended the villain.

   Sighing, Xunzhou continued: "My brother-in-law and I don't believe that the teacher would do such a thing, so we have been secretly investigating this matter for these years."

  For them, Wen Xuance, a benefactor, not only preaches and receives vocation, but also has a great kindness to stand up when they are in distress. How can they forget such a great kindness?

Speaking of this, Xun Zhou paused for a while, glanced at Lin Fei, and said, "Last year, we found a person by accident. From this population, we learned that the imperial edict back then was very important It may have been replaced mid-delivery."

  Wen Mingtang said "Oh", looked at Xunzhou, and asked, "Is there any evidence?"

   Facing the girl's calm eyes, Xun Zhou opened his mouth, glanced at Lin Fei, and hesitated to speak.

  Lin Fei lowered his eyes, as if he hadn't seen the wink, and stood there motionless.

   As a last resort, Xunzhou had no choice but to say: "Sister Mingtang, can I borrow a word? This matter is related to my mentor, and it is extremely important."

  Because the matter is so important, it is naturally impossible for outsiders to hear it.

   From Xun Zhou's winks again and again, it is obvious who this outsider is referring to.

  Wen Mingtang: "..."

  Looking at Lin Fei who came here on purpose and didn't shy away from it, Wen Mingtang fell silent. After a while, she said to Xun Zhou: "It's okay, he won't talk nonsense."

Is it? Xun Zhou hesitated, then paused. Facing Wen Mingtang's expression, Xun Zhou said frankly, "I'm not worried about Lin Shaoqing talking nonsense, I'm worried about him going to investigate..."

They have been in Chang'an for half a month and have inquired about the affairs of Chang'an city. Judging from this Lin Shaoqing's past, after he finds out, he will definitely start to investigate immediately. startled people...

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Lin Fei: "Since you have found out that there is something wrong with this matter, if you don't start to investigate, you will return Wen Xuance's innocence. You are going to hide the evidence at home and stay behind closed doors. No?"

  One sentence made Xun Zhou speechless. Seeing Wen Mingtang's expression of nodding involuntarily in response, Xun Zhou opened his mouth, feeling powerless: Are these two too courageous?

  He sighed: "This matter is of great importance. When the accident happened back then, because someone pleaded for the life of his teacher, he checked it and found that the evidence was convincing. Therefore, the late emperor was angry and said that this case should not be brought up again..."

   "It is the first emperor who should not repeat this case," Wen Mingtang said to Xunzhou, "Now His Majesty has no way not to repeat such words!"

  Xunzhou: "..."

Looking at the two calm and calm faces opposite him, he couldn't think of anything to refute for a while, and not only could he not refute, but also had a subtle feeling in his heart: what these two said seemed to be true, now Your Majesty is not allowed to mention it again!

  Seeing that Xun Zhou didn't speak, Wen Mingtang seemed dumbfounded, and immediately asked: "So, what evidence did you find?"
