Chapter 4 Secret Files

Since that year, the demon chaos in Chang'an.

And after Li Chunfeng and the strange leader, the Glowing Star Monarch re-established the covenant.

Over the years, it has been rare to see strange traces.

How much more is it in this palace?

Of course, the world is divided into the table.

On the surface, the weirdness is gone.

But in the inner world, the weird has not died, but has become more hidden.

Li Chunfeng once said to Li Zhi that if the Tao circulates today, the righteousness is full.

It belongs to a strange era, and it is gradually passing.

Although weird is strong, it is difficult to be the iron horse of Datang.

At the same time, Li Chunfeng has seen the celestial phenomena, and now the rules of heaven and earth have changed, and it is becoming more and more difficult to come up with powerful weird and strange people.

After a few years, it will even die out completely.

So weird, it's also trying to blend in with the human race.

In short, if in Chang'an, in the Tang Dynasty, in the palace, there are strange and other monsters appearing, then they are killing themselves.

Wu Meiniang looked at Su Dawei.

Su Dawei also looked at her at the same time, his eyes calm.

"Ami is by no means a monster."

Wu Meiniang's voice was firm, and she looked at Guo Xingzhen: "Could the Taoist be mistaken?" ”

"You can't go wrong with being poor."

Guo Xingzhen is categorical.

Just when Wu Meiniang frowned slightly, Jin Wuwei, who caught up, and the palace eunuchs at the scene were at a loss, Guo Xingzhen said: "Poor Dao didn't say that Su Langjun is a monster, this is a misunderstanding." ”

The corners of his mouth smiled, and his right hand moved.

The wooden sword that had been shot earlier, with a thud, flew out of the grass and fell back into his hand.

Guo Xingzhen glanced down and said, "Blue blood, sure enough." ”

Seeing this scene, Wu Meiniang didn't know what was going on, and the jade finger pointed to the green plant in front of her and said, "Go search there." ”

"No!"

Qianniuwei, who was on duty, hurriedly responded with his fists and ran over with more than ten Jin Wuwei and searched in the grass.

In the end, I really didn't find it, so I had to come back with a bitter face, knelt down on one knee to Wu Meiniang and Li Hong, hugged my fists and said: "Queen, prince, there is nothing over there, just a few blood stains on the ground." ”

Guo Xingzhen stroked his beard on the side, and said with a regretful face: "It seems that it was still run away, but it's a pity." ”

"How can there be monsters in the palace?"

Wu Meiniang's face darkened.

She really can't forget the scene when the queen used witchcraft to spell Princess Ansi and almost took the princess's life.

"Pass on the palace order, and let Jin Wuwei search all the palaces in the palace......"

"No!"

"Wait."

Wu Meiniang's raised hand slowly fell: "This matter must not be made quiet, it must be carried out in secret, understand?" ”

"No."

"Then pass on the Taishi order to enter the palace."

"No."

After giving the order, Wu Meiniang held Li Hong's shoulder with her hand: "I'm tired, let's stop today's banquet, Ami, if there is something, I will call you again, you are free, you can come to the palace to walk around." ”

"Yes."

After a pause, Wu Meiniang said again: "Although you are not in the battle formation now, you can also move around there a little more." ”

Su Dawei's heart moved, and he hugged his fists and said, "No." ”

……

Coming out of Daming Palace, Su Dawei did not go back to the house first, but went straight to Dali Temple.

It's not to see Dali Temple, but to Ducha Temple.

Returning to Chang'an this time is really unexpectedly exciting.

From the assassination on the first day of entering Chang'an, he entered the palace to see Li Zhi that night, and went to Wu Meiniang's banquet the next day, and then met the crown prince Li Hong at the banquet, and then met Helan Minzhi and Ming Chongyan, who were very hostile to him.

There is also a demon road of unknown origin.

The other party even dared to shoot at himself, which was bold.

Although Guo Xingzhen was later rounded up with the word "monster".

But Su Dawei was sure that at that moment, Guo Xingzhen was targeting himself.

even revealed naked killing intent.

These things made Su Dawei's whole nerves tense.

When he returned to Chang'an, he was caught in a complex whirlpool.

Li Yifu's secret digging pit.

Helan Minzhi's hostility and hatred towards himself.

The Taoist priest's killing intent towards himself.

These people are all people around Wu Meiniang.

Oh, that's funny.

I am in Wu Zetian's camp, and the people around Wu Zetian want to kill me?

There is nothing more funny in the world than this.

Entering the Ducha Temple, the messenger guarding the door also recognized Su Dawei and hurriedly bowed.

Su Dawei waved his hand and strode in.

It's going on in a hectic way.

Although the Ducha Temple was originally set up only to deal with the small work of various countries ambushing in Chang'an, with the expansion of these years, it has far exceeded the scope of its initial construction.

So far, it has not only been a detailed external inspection.

Internally, there is also a faint responsibility to supervise hundreds of officials.

Its tentacles were brought as far as Baekje by Su Dawei, and to Silla, Goguryeo, and the Wa Kingdom.

In Chang'an, with Li Zhi's several visits to Luoyang, the intelligence network of Ducha Temple has already expanded from Chang'an to Luoyang.

If you look at it from the map of the Tang Dynasty, the headquarters of Ducha Temple is in Chang'an, but the intelligence network has been connected from Chang'an, to Luoyang, from Luoyang to Dengzhou, to the peninsula.

Such a behemoth, its various things are complicated, and the difficulty is a hundred times greater than when it was first created.

Therefore, the manpower in the entire yamen is more than that of Dali Temple.

As far as the eye could see, there were two or three hundred people rushing to and fro in the temple.

There is information to be collected.

There are those who carry the dossier.

There are those who classify and organize the files.

There is analytical intelligence.

There are traces to follow.

There are studies of maps and tracking cases.

There are those who are responsible for docking with the various departments of Datang.

There are also people who manage all levels of smugglers, intelligence subdivisions, teams, and perimeter personnel at all levels.

It's a lot of stuff, it's wonderful.

"Siqing!"

Seeing Su Dawei at a glance, Zhu Bo, Changshi and others, they hurriedly put down the work at hand, hurriedly trotted up, and saluted Su Dawei.

The first thing Su Dawei did when he returned to Chang'an was to eliminate internal rebellion and kill people.

Here's where it comes in.

This time, he left Chang'an for three years, and the first thing he did when he came back was not to enter the palace to see Li Zhi.

Instead, by means of being assassinated, he falsely claimed to go to various yamen to make trouble.

The most critical step is to come to Dali Temple, which belongs to the yamen of Ducha Temple, and regain his authority.

With Ducha Temple in hand, it is equivalent to having more clairvoyance and ears to the wind.

This is Su Dawei's most important layout in Datang.

"Okay, let's go and get busy, by the way, if you have something, you can report to me alone."

Su Dawei waved his hand to disperse his subordinates, and said, "Where are Gao Dahu and Li Boren?" ”

Last night, they were in Su Dawei's mansion, waiting for Su Dawei to come back.

By now, I should have gone back to Ducha Temple on an errand.

"Siqing, I'm here."

From behind the crowd came Li Bo's voice.

The officials hurriedly dispersed, Li Bo strode up, hugged his fists at Su Dawei and said, "Dahu has a case at hand, I am here." ”

"Let's go, talk to the side."

"Yes."

Although Su Dawei is now a martial artist under the fourth rank, his power is far less than when he was the governor of Xiongjin in Baekje.

When he returned to Chang'an this time, the post of governor was automatically relieved.

Bad handsome, Li Zhi didn't mention it, most of the time it was difficult to go back.

When I went to Chang'an County yesterday, in addition to the old bad people, the yamen from the county monarch to the errand servant were all replaced by new people.

There is only the Ducha Temple, and the power is great.

There is no one to take Su Dawei's place.

At least for now, Li Zhi has not put forward another candidate to take over.

Only when Su Dawei returns here can he have a sense of security that everything is under control.

Striding back to his public office table and sitting down, Su Dawei glanced down at the table.

Although he didn't sit in this position for a few years, his men still cleaned up well.

The pen and ink on the table and the paperwork are exactly the same as when he left, and the whole table is clean and clean.

The position of the table facing the right hand is slightly glowing.

That was when the dossier was reviewed in the Ducha Temple, the cold came and the summer came and went, and the traces left by countless years of writing.

Putting away the feelings in his heart, Su Dawei said to Li Bo: "What's the big deal in Chang'an recently?" ”

"Big event, I don't know what Siqing refers to......"

Li Bo has always called Su Dawei as an official in the Ducha Temple.

"Is there anything worth noting or being wary of in Chang'an?"

Su Dawei saw Li Bo frowning and thinking hard, so he simply went further: "I was invited to a banquet by the Empress Wu in the palace today, and I met Helan Minzhi and Ming Chongyan during the banquet, both of whom are extremely hostile to me, and there is also a Taoist priest named Guo Xingzhen, is it recorded?"

Where did this person come from? Who introduced you to Empress Wu?

Who else is worth noting around Empress Wu? What's unusual lately?

By the way, and the prince's side, is there anything abnormal? When did the prince's illness begin, and which famous doctors were used for treatment? ”

As soon as he opened his mouth, the question was directed at Wu Meiniang's side.

The assassination was important, but it was nothing compared to what happened at the feast today.

Wu Meiniang is his biggest investment and backer since he came to Datang.

If something goes wrong with this pillar, it will be a big trouble to shake the foundation.

Asked by Su Dawei, Li Bo was stunned for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Siqing, that's in the palace." ”

"Bring me the relevant files."

In the palace, according to the rules of the Ducha Temple, it is generally not possible to focus on investigation.

This is taboo.

Once Li Zhi knew about it, it would be a catastrophe.

But Ducha Temple was set up by Su Dawei, and he knew very well that the so-called taboo in the palace and not being able to investigate was only a superficial rule.

Take Li Zhi himself, he is now relying more and more on the Ducha Temple.

In addition to the turmoil in Chang'an, whether the officials are loyal or not.

The concubine in the palace, why doesn't he want to master?

Power is addictive.

Even if Ducha Temple is a poisonous weed, Li Zhi can't do without it now.

Even if the rules of the Ducha Temple are not aimed at the palace, Li Zhi himself sometimes puts forward some special requirements.

These are not known to ordinary people in the Ducha Temple.

But Su Dawei is not in this case.

He is the one who makes the rules.

Li Bo glanced at Su Dawei, saw his resolute expression, hugged his fists, and reached out to Su Dawei to ask for the key.

Su Dawei untied the goldfish bag, which contained the fish talisman for entering the palace, as well as his seal as a temple secretary.

This represents the highest power within the Ducha Monastery.

There are two such seals, one in the hands of Su Dawei and the other in the hands of Li Zhi.

Only with this kind of letter seal in his hand can he call all the secret files in the Ducha Temple.

Otherwise, no matter how high your official position is, you will not be able to check it.

Su Dawei raised his pen and wrote the voucher, stamped the letter, and then handed the voucher to Li Bo.

Li Bo took this thing, and then went to the archives to read the palace archives.

This check will also be recorded.

If Li Zhi had the heart to investigate, he would know that Su Dawei had transferred the secret file in the palace.

But Su Dawei is not worried about this.

What happened in the palace today is the best reason.

Even if Li Zhi asked, he could tell him bluntly.

These are all within the responsibilities of the Ducha Monastery.
