Chang'an is still the same as usual. The fat monk mingled among the crowd and laughed and talked with a group of idle men. He calculated that the day should be taken to Chang'an today.

While talking, the fat monk kept staring at the streets. As the noisy crowd was dispersed by a group of officials, the head of the Lu family in Dali Temple appeared in sight.

"I still have something to do, so I'll say goodbye first." The fat monk smiled and said to a few idle men and left.

The head of the Lu family was taken to the palace as soon as he arrived in Chang'an. No one knew what the head of the Lu family had said to His Majesty today. It took a long time later that the head of the Lu family left the palace and was taken to Dali Temple to wait for trial.

At Dali Temple, Di Renjie and Dali Temple Minister were waiting in front of Dali Temple. The head of the Lu family walked all the way to the Dali Temple in front of Dali Temple with shackles and looked up without looking at Dali Temple Minister, but stared at Di Renjie.

"Are you Gu Qing's disciple?" The head of the Lu family said in a hoarse voice.

"That's right." Di Renjie turned to the side facing this old guy, "Please."

"Gu Qing, I will definitely underestimate you!" The head of the Lu family walked into Dali Temple and took it to the Dali Temple prison.

Although the head of the Lu family was imprisoned too suddenly and too secretly, after asking and guessing, there were many voices in Chang'an. Some said that the royal family was going to deprive the aristocratic family, and some said that because the Lu family thought about the incident of Prince Yin, he conspired to rebel.

As the young minister of Dali Temple, Di Renjie is dealing with the Lu family who was taken to Chang'an from the Lu family. Dali Temple has become very low-key. Why is Chang'an so popular? It is very public opinion. If this continues, he will bring out the Xuanwu Gate incident. The more he thinks about it, he becomes more anxious. He puts down his writing and walks out of Dali Temple.

After coming to Bizhai, Di Renjie found that the fat monk was not here, but the short one was there.

"Where is the monk?" Di Renjie walked into Bizhai and asked.

"I've gone out, and I've sent all the staff out. I'm not enough now. He's going to listen to the wind." The short man sat bored, "Little Di, have you noticed that something is wrong with the limelight in Chang'an recently?"

Nodding his head, Di Renjie was also puzzled, "This gust of wind will not come in vain."

"Yes." The short man thought, "I've already told Gu Tou Er, but I don't know what Gu Tou Er will make arrangements."

"Look at it first." Di Renjie looked worried, "If you ask me to tell me the teacher, I won't go back these days and stare at Dali Temple, for fear of something unexpected."

"I understand." The dwarf nodded.

...

That night, Di Renjie was not sleeping all night and the head of the Lu family did not fall for a day and made people feel restless. It was late at night that people were more sleepy. The bleak autumn wind blowing by Qujiang Pool made him feel excited.

In the hazy dark night, you can see a few dark blue fires. After rubbing your eyes hard, you will see a few dark blue ghost fires floating on the lake, floating in Chang'an all the way.

"Ghost... Ghost Fire!" He ran into the streets of Chang'an in a panic and encountered a team of soldiers patrolling the night. "Several officials, there are... Ghosts!"

"What are you ghosts? How come you are so whirring!" Brother Qiang, who led the team, shouted, and looked up and saw dark blue ghost fires floating silently on the street. His feet were soft and he fell to the ground. "Ghost...ghost...ghost fire!"

The originally quiet Chang'an City became noisy late at night. The officials of Dali Temple came to Di Renjie, "Shaoqing, something happened!"

Putting down the file in his hand, Di Renjie was confused.

"Shaoqing, there is ghost fire outside...there is ghost fire outside!" The official said and his tone was trembling.

Di Renjie stood up and walked all the way to Dali Temple. The dark blue ghost fire floated in the street. He was surprised and even more frightened.

On the morning court the next day, Li Er's face was very bad, and ghost fire appeared in Chang'an. This incident caused a huge wave of speculation among the people, and the ancients respected the gods.

"A thorough investigation!" Li Er immediately issued an order.

Fang Xuanling noticed that Li Er's face looked very bad. From the previous public discussion to the current situation, what is alluded to this matter is the Xuanwu Gate back then, which is just a taboo in His Majesty's mind today.

Li Er's order made the entire Dali Temple nervous.

The Chang'an Outskirts Temple was already at midnight, Gu Qing got up and looked at Di Renjie at home, "Didn't you say you would stare at the head of the Lu family during this period?"

"Teacher." Di Renjie nodded and said, "There was a ghost fire in Chang'an City last night, and the court shook!"

"Ghost Fire? Gu Qing said in confusion, "What's the reaction of the person in the palace?"

"A thorough investigation!" Di Renjie replied, "Teacher, are there really ghosts and gods in this world?"

"No!" Gu Qing said with a sneer, "From the previous public opinion to the current ghost fire, it seems that someone wants to save the life of the head of the Lu family, and alluding to Xuanwu Sect? What a courage."

"The teacher means..." The breeze blew, and Di Renjie's mind was clear, "The teacher means someone is causing trouble from it and wants to take advantage of the situation to protect the head of the Lu family?"

"It's probably true." Gu Qing took a bowl of porridge handed over by his servants at home and started eating.

"But if someone really does this, how did the ghost fire do it?" Di Renjie was puzzled again.

"Phosphate, something that is very easy to burn." Gu Qing ate the porridge, "The incendiary bomb I made contains phosphorus, which I extracted from my urine. Someone used phosphorus to create ghost fire."

"Students should still check it out? Students have never seen the phosphorus thing." Di Renjie said.

"Su Dingfang has seen this thing, and it is a bit powdery in white." Gu Qing thought in his heart, "This thing will not burn for too long. If it causes the posture of last night, you must be near Chang'an. Follow the wind direction last night, and start to check from the first person who saw the ghost fire. There should be clues."

"Student understands." Di Renjie left now.

Seeing this boy leave, Gu Qing sighed. The Lu family has been in name only. What is the use of doing these things? What is wrong with it? But it just touches the thorn in Li Shimin's heart.

Di Renjie and his people began to investigate. Dali Temple Minister watched Di Renjie busy up and down. Can the ghost fire be investigated? He was puzzled and grabbed Di Renjie and said, "Di Renjie, the most important thing at the moment is to appease the people's hearts."

"If the truth is found, the people will naturally be determined." Di Renjie bowed and said to the Dali Temple Minister, "If there are really ghosts and gods, the officials should see what this ghost and god looks like."

Di Renjie and the people from Dali Temple interrogated them in Chang'an and found the first person to see the ghost fire. The first person to see the ghost fire was in Qujiangchi.
