Chapter 594: Plum Garden

"Zheng Liwan is missing?" In Luoyang City, Xu Jingzong and Qiu Renjie looked at each other with indescribable surprise on their faces, but there was a hint of worry and fear on Xu Jingzong's face. But Di Renjie could see it clearly.

"What are you worried about?" Di Renjie saw this and asked quickly: "Although Luoyang is the place where the crime occurred, there are Royal Forest Army guards guarding here. Who dares to come and offend? We also have Royal Forest Army guards when we travel. Could it be?

Can someone else come to assassinate me?" "Although this is Luoyang, I'm not worried about these killers!" Xu Jingzong glanced at Qiu Renjie and saw that his face was full of smiles and an expression of indifference, and he secretly felt in his heart

Thoughts: "I'm afraid there are other things behind this big case.

I and these people are just a chess piece. Whether this chess piece should be discarded after use is a problem! How important the capital is. There may be corrupt officials, but it is absolutely impossible to have ruthless officials.

The existence of bandits, where is the Baoguo Temple, where incense is flourishing, His Majesty put Zheng Liwan there, and sent several Royal Guards to guard there. Is it so easy to be killed? If it is so simple,

Your Majesty couldn't have seized power from so many Li family emperors back then. Humph! How powerful the Jinyi Guards are. They monitor other places. Maybe they are those who have a corpse meal, or are colluding with local officials. Maybe

There are people who lied about the news, but it is absolutely impossible for these things to happen in the capital. Your Majesty's control over the capital is the same even if you are not in Chang'an City. But now this kind of thing happened and at this time, your Majesty

There has been no response yet. His Majesty's army is there and has not yet arrived in Hanzhong. It is enough to summon Minister Xuande Hall to deal with the matter in person. But what your Majesty is doing is just a casual sentence, ordering the magistrates of Chang'an County and Wannian County to jointly investigate.

It’s just a case. For such a major case, only two county magistrates were asked to investigate the case. Although these two county magistrates were far higher in rank than other county magistrates, they were only one county magistrate. How could they be compared with the big officials of the imperial court?

How can we compare it with other members?" When Xu Jingzong thought of this, his expression suddenly changed. For the first time, he felt that there was a mysterious big hand behind the case, and the owner of this big hand was self-evident, that is Dang today, Dang today.

Why did you do this? Xu Jingzong didn’t know.

"Old, why were Liu Huifu and Wu Neng killed?" Di Renjie suddenly asked curiously, pointing to the last piece of news obtained from the Di newspaper office.

...Hmph! Of course he knew too much, so he was killed." Xu Jingzong showed a hint of disdain at the corner of his mouth and sneered: "Do you need to say this? These people think they are doing something sophisticated, but they don't know.

This matter has long been noticed. Liu Huifu and Wu Neng have great power in Chang'an City. The power I am talking about is not in the officialdom but outside the officialdom. Because of this, they handled the matter for those people.

Most of the things are hidden from the light. This is a critical time. Once His Majesty catches the Luoyang incident and makes a fuss about it, these two people will be enough to implicate a large number of people, so they will die in prison for no apparent reason.

I'm afraid these two people were beaten to death and never imagined that they would live today. Huaiying! Just leave this matter alone. I heard that the reason why these two people were imprisoned was because they offended His Majesty. Such people deserve to die." He said.

He pointed upward, and the meaning in his words was very clear. I am afraid that this matter was done by God, but it was difficult for him to say it in his mouth. He would give such an excuse. God knows if there are any Jin Yiwei among the Imperial Guards outside.

Inside, once this matter is reported, Xu Jingzong may not be able to bear the consequences and walk away.

"But?" Di Renjie was about to speak, but Xu Jingzong pointed at it. His heart moved and his expression changed drastically. Although Xu Jingzong didn't say it explicitly, he still understood that Lu Zhaoci might have done this personally. Just imagine that in the Ministry of Punishment

In the prison, who can kill these three people quietly? Is there anyone else except Dang today? But when I think about it, although it is a great thing to do, it is against the way of an emperor. What do you think?

It’s not something God did.

"Old, I'm afraid you said it wrong this time. This matter has nothing to do with the higher-ups. I'm afraid it was done by someone else." Di Renjie shook his head and said, "Although I don't know why these people do this, lower officials always have something to do.

I feel that this matter has a lot to do with what happened in Luoyang." "You think so?" Xu Jingzong asked in surprise, then shook his head and said: "One is in Chang'an, the other is in Luoyang, the two are

There is no necessary connection between them at all. For Zheng Renji, even if he wants to manage his power, he will only do it in Luoyang, or in other words, he will collude with those dignitaries in Chang'an. Who are Liu Hui and Wu Neng?

Compared with Zheng Renji, Zheng Renji will not take it seriously. These two people have nothing to do with the Luoyang case. I have also sent people to investigate. Liu Hui has been to Luoyang once, because his family's Xiao Liu Chan is in

A crime has been committed in Luoyang. As for the man named Wu Neng, he has never been to Luoyang and has nothing to do with the Luoyang case. Huaiying! Since His Majesty has decreed this matter, we should not get entangled in it. Although you and I are

The imperial envoy can only be responsible for the Luoyang case and has nothing to do with Chang'an.", "Old man, don't forget that the Hongnong case seems to be the work of the mastermind behind it, but according to our inference

, the murderer is actually in Chang'an, those who came from Guanzhong." Di Renjie shook his head and said: "Old man, haven't you always wanted to find out the results behind the case of private farmers? This is an opportunity! Use Liu Hui

The murder case of Wu Neng and Wu Neng stirred up the storm in Guanzhong. We follow the clues. On the surface, we are investigating the Liu Hui case, but in fact, we are investigating the Hongnong case, concealing the truth. Isn't this good?", "

This?" Xu Jingzong's expression changed, with a trace of hesitation on his face. I have to say that Di Renjie's idea is very good and can be implemented. Nowadays, it is difficult to open the situation in Luoyang.

Yes, because even if we know that Zheng Renji is related to this matter, there is no relevant evidence to prove it. If we can take the wrong approach and investigate the case of Liu Hui and Wu Neng first, we may get unexpected results.

s consequence..

"Old." Di Renjie urged.

"Okay! Since Huaiying Jianjing, I will accompany you for a while." Xu Jingzong looked at Di Renjie's anxious look and couldn't help laughing.

"By the way, sir, how about getting close to the King of Wei?" Di Renjie suddenly asked.

"Hello Ran." Xu Jingzong nodded, glanced at Qiu Renjie, and said, "Huaiying! Remember, although you are Tai's person, you are still His Majesty. Although King Wei is not on good terms with Tai, he still

We are also His Majesty's sons. To be honest, in front of King Wei, we are still ministers. We must not mess up our identities.", "Haha! This is natural, an old joke." Qiu Renjie shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "

It is strange to say that King Wei's illness has been cured, so he should go to the Shaolin Temple, so why is he still in Luoyang? Although His Majesty's imperial edict has been published, doesn't he want to go to the Shaolin Temple to study Buddhism?

Why are you still staying in Luoyang?", "Where else can you go if not in Luoyang? Go to Shaolin Temple?" Xu Jingzong shook his head and said: "Shaolin Temple is a holy place for Buddhism. Although King Wei is young and proficient in classics and history, he has

But the Buddhist monks don't have any favorable impressions. It's understandable not to go to Shaolin Feng. As for why he didn't go back to Chang'an, it's easy to understand. Huaiying, why did you ask him to go back to Chang'an? Your Majesty is no longer in Chang'an. What happened at the last court meeting?

He has offended the people of Tai and Tai's family. Does he still dare to return to Chang'an? If he stays in Luoyang, as an idle prince, at least His Highness will not cause trouble for him. "

"Huh! Can you hide there?" Di Renjie sneered: "Now that His Majesty is still in office, once Tai ascends the throne, where can he hide?" "By that time, Tai will not cause trouble for him.

." Xu Jingzong shook his head and said: "However, King Wei is a good person. If he were an ordinary person, I would be willing to associate with him. There are some aspects that I like very much."

"I heard that King Wei often invited Lao to his residence?" Di Renjie said with a half-smile.

"He is the emperor, and he came to invite me, so I had to go.

"Xu Jingzong shook his head and said: "Besides, I had some friendship with him at first. But later I entered the Xuande Palace and it was difficult to associate with him. Now that the East Palace has been decided, His Highness has got married, so he can handle ordinary matters.

Regarding state affairs, no one can shake the position of Tai. I will agree to his invitation. Otherwise, hehe! I really don’t have the courage!", "Okay, sir, I still have to go to the capital for a visit. This is Luoyang.

I'll leave the matter to you. You must hurry up and do it." Qiu Renjie said with a smile: "I heard that King Wei has many friends, so I might as well reveal one of them, so that it can cause a storm in the city.", "Okay.

Idea." Xu Jingzong said quickly: "I will go find His Royal Highness the King of Wei right now." After saying that, he walked out impatiently. Di Renjie shook his head repeatedly.

"Sir, where are we going now?" Xu Jingzong sat on the carriage. The carriage moved slowly in Luoyang City. Through the carriage, the cries of vendors outside could be heard. But he sat motionless in the carriage.

, frowning, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Go, Meiyuan." Xu Jingzong thought for a moment and said, "His Royal Highness the King of Wei invited me to go fishing." Meiyuan is located on the edge of Luoshui. It is a private garden of a royal family. Back then, Yang Guang saw it above Luoshui.

, the setting sun and the dotted sails were really beautiful, so a private garden was built there for daily recreation. After Yang Guang died, it was owned by Wang Shichong. After Luoyang was conquered, it naturally fell into the hands of Lu Zhaoci.

Lu Chengtai once followed Lu Zhaoci to Luoyang. Seeing the beautiful scenery of the plum garden, he felt happy and asked Lu Zhaoci to reward him with the plum garden. This plum garden has now become Lu Chengtai's private property. While he was recovering in Luoyang,

, Lu Chengtai lived in the plum garden. Sometimes, he would fish on the Luoshui River, or go boating on the Luoshui River with a few friends, or visit the famous mountains and rivers, which was quite a leisurely experience. Xu Jingzong

He was a scholar and poet. Although his reputation was not very good, it did not prevent Lu Chengtai from interacting with him. What's more, when Xu Jingzong was unsuccessful, Lu Chengtai took good care of him. Later, although Xu Jingzong's position improved,

They were estranged, but now they live in Luoyang at the same time and their contacts have become closer. Yesterday, Lu Chengtai ordered someone to invite Xu Jingzong to visit Meiyuan. Xu Jingzong was naturally very happy.

"Mr. Xu, I have kept Xiao Wang waiting for a long time!" At the gate of Meiyuan, Lu Chengtai was wearing a cool shirt. Although there were two beautiful maids behind him fanning himself, there was still a lot of sweat on his forehead. He was

It's natural that he is fat, doesn't like sports, and is in poor physical condition. What's more, it shows that this person has the demeanor of a polite and virtuous corporal.

"Your Majesty, I've been waiting for a long time. It's really the fault of the lower official." Xu Jingzong slowly got off the carriage, cupped his hands with a smile and said: "The lower official has some secular affairs and stayed in the Yamen for some time. It's my fault.

.”

"Haha! The old country is busy with affairs, unlike Xiao Wang, who has nothing to do all day long. He eats and drinks here for free, hey! It's really embarrassing to think about it!" Lu Chengtai shook his head and said: "I hope that my brother, King of Shu, can follow his father in the north and south."

I have made great contributions to the country during the war, but Tai is sitting in Chang'an to handle state affairs, and only Xiao Wang is like a waste. I really have lost the dignity of my royal family! I am ashamed of myself."

"Haha! The prince is too modest." Xu Jingzong shook his head repeatedly and said: "Among the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty, who doesn't know that His Highness the King of Wei is a tall man and the most powerful person in the banquet room. If the prince is a corpse, what will he do?

The officials and others will also be punished by the ginseng of Yushitai. Your Majesty, you are too modest."

"Haha! I really know how to talk." Lu Chengtai sat in a posture of asking, and said as he walked: "Although Xiao Wang has been staying in the plum garden these days, Doctor Zhang asked Xiao Wang to rest in peace and recuperate. To be honest, Xiao Wang

How can I think about recuperating in peace at this time? Think about it, it is unfilial for my father to send troops to conquer his son and not go to see his son off! A big case happened in Luoyang, and Xiao Wang was in Luoyang, but he ate and drank for free, doing nothing all day long.

It is disloyal to contribute to the affairs of the court. Seeing Mr. Di Renjie, Mr. Di, Zheng Renji and Mr. Zheng running around all day long, but unable to do anything himself, it is unkind. Xiao Wang is really uneasy! "

"Everyone says that the prince is benevolent and righteous. Today, I know that the prince is a kind and righteous man, which cannot be compared with us. Well, once your majesty knows the news, he will be very happy in his heart." Xu Jingzong narrowed his eyes and showed a smile on his face.

, laughed loudly and said: "Your Majesty, you can rest assured and recuperate here. As long as you are healthy, you will be contributing to the country."

You must know that Taihe and Prince Shu are now married. Soon, the branches and leaves will spread and the royal bloodline will be carried forward. Haha! The royal family has many bloodlines and the foundation can flourish. Your Highness, only this is the foundation for the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty!"

"Haha! What I said is very reasonable, very reasonable." Lu Chengtai narrowed his eyes and looked gloomy. How could he not hear the words behind Xu Jingzong's words? To put it nicely, he was considering the court, but if he said it

To put it bluntly, I just want Lu Chengtai to do all he can for the royal family. You! It’s better to be an idle prince! It’s better to be a stallion and go away exclusively for the royal family. For other things, you Wei

There was no need for the king to think about it. Although Lu Chengtai knew what Xu Jingzong meant, he had no way to express it, which made the prince, who usually thought he was very resourceful, really depressed. In desperation, he had to lead Xu Jingzong towards Luo

He walked to the water bank. Only Xu Jingzong followed him, with a thoughtful look on his face. He had been in official circles for a long time, so he naturally knew what things could be contaminated and what things should not be involved. This is the inheritance of the royal throne, isn't it?

A minister can get involved. Especially Xu Jingzong, who has just entered the Xuande Palace and is not even as qualified as Chen Guangrui, so he dares to get involved in other matters.

"Your Highness, the Meiyuan Garden has beautiful scenery. If you stay here for a long time, I'm afraid you will feel a little reluctant to miss Shu." Xu Jingzong seemed not to notice that Lu Chengtai's expression was wrong, pointing to the scenery around the Meiyuan Garden and said with a smile: "Next

Even though I am an auxiliary minister, I am very happy to see such a garden!"

"Haha! If you like me, how about asking me to stay here for a few more days someday?" Lu Chengtai said with a smile: "Anyway, there is only Xiao Wang in the plum garden now, and my father is not in Chang'an now.

What's more, even if my father knew about it, he wouldn't blame Xiao Wang and Mr. Lao. What do you think, Mr. Lao?"

"Haha! Your Highness, I don't dare to do this." Xu Jingzong waved his hand and said: "Your Highness doesn't know something. When I came to Luoyang this time, I didn't expect that I could stay in the position of Xuande Palace Bachelor for a long time!"

"How do you say this?" Lu Chengtai asked in surprise.

"Di Renjie is indeed a person that your Majesty and your Majesty value very much. Although I have rich experience as a subordinate, I have to say that Di Renjie is extremely intelligent and cannot be compared with ordinary officials." Xu Jingzong said with a smile: "Luoyang One

Although the case is ostensibly presided over by the lower official, in fact, the lower official is just an old man who nods. The real decision maker is Qiu Renjie. He orders the government officials to do things and directs the soldiers to investigate the case. These are all the things that Qiu Renjie is doing.

The lower official just takes the big seal and stamps it there. Sometimes, he doesn't even know what is written on the document. Haha! How long can you think of this position of Xuande Palace Grand Scholar?

?”

"This Di Renjie is so bold. It's really hateful." Lu Chengtai's expression changed, his eyes turned cold, and he snorted coldly: "Who is Di Renjie? He is just relying on His Highness's favor, and he actually doesn't take him seriously.

If he's not old, then he? Hum!" Lu Chengtai had a look of disdain on his face.!~!
