Chapter 639: Calm the Down
From simple to complex, there is only one turning in between. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoFor example, the case in front of me is simple and simple, it is nothing more than a previous grudge, so he poisoned and killed.
But if it has to be developed in a complicated place, it is very easy, as soon as Li Su made a move, he involved a servant of the criminal department, involving the courtiers, which attracted more attention, and the matter was naturally complicated, to this point, no one would treat it as a simple homicide case, and it would not be too much to say that it was a court battle, the difference is that the camp of the enemy and us in this court battle is not very clear.
As long as the water is muddyed in anything, it is not easy to distinguish between black and white loyalties and treacherousness, which is also the effect that Li Su wants to achieve.
Today, it seems that the results are good.
Huang Shoufu himself died after taking the tonic by mistake, so the case became simple again. It has nothing to do with the Xu family, it has nothing to do with the court, and of course, it has nothing to do with the person behind the scenes, especially since this rumor was said by the bitter master's family himself, which is more true.
Li Su even guessed their next step, if that family member had to go to Dali Temple to make it clear, presumably even Sun Fujia would be caught off guard, and even had doubts and confusion about his life from then on, reflecting on what he had done in the past few days.
It's easy to get into trouble, and it's easy to settle down, it's just another way of putting it down.
Li Su can be sure that the mastermind behind the scenes must be afraid, since Han Shilang of the Criminal Department was imprisoned, things have developed in a direction that he can't control, "uncontrollable" means danger, but any normal person will not do this kind of stupid thing of dancing without the tip of a knife, so now the family of the bitter master has changed his statement Li Su can understand it very well.
I can't afford to play, I don't want to play, I want to withdraw, this time everyone loses both, and the next time I have a chance to learn again.
"What about Han Yu? That criminal squire still hasn't recruited anything? Li Su suddenly asked.
Wang Zhi shook his head: "No, and I'm sure he won't recruit anything, because Han You's family is inexplicably gone." ”
Li Su nodded and said slowly: "I understand, but he did a good job and controlled Han You's family, of course he won't recruit anything." ”
Wang Zhi smiled and said: "It's good news, your father-in-law should be able to clear his suspicion, since there is this rumor in the market, I am afraid that the day he will be released from prison is not far away." ”
Li Su sighed: "Yes, let's get people out first." ”
Saying that, he sneered twice: "Since the wind direction has changed, I believe that someone will take care of the aftermath for me......
Wang Zhi blinked blankly: "Has he cleaned up the aftermath?" ”
Li Su smiled: "Didn't you find the details? It is rumored that he died after drinking ginseng soup, and it has nothing to do with the Xu family's tea, this sentence is the aftermath, not only the suspicion of the Xu family has been cleared, but even the reputation of the Xu family's tea has been twisted, and now the person who is most afraid is not us, but the person behind the scenes, he is afraid that things will be more out of control, he is afraid that I will make this case bigger, not to mention anything else, Sun Fujia has been the secretary of Dali Temple for these years, but he is not a dry eater, if he doesn't know how to stop at this time, he will inevitably be burned......"
Wang Zhixi said: "In this way, this case will be settled soon, and your father-in-law will be released from prison safely." ”
Li Su sneered: "He said to provoke trouble, he said to calm down, is I Li Su a plaything to be rubbed?" If I don't dig out the people behind the scenes this time, who knows when he will do it to me next time? Therefore, this time I can't help him, since he provoked me, it's up to me to settle down or not, I have to pull him out and cut the grass and eradicate the roots, otherwise I won't be able to sleep! ”
The cold tone surprised Wang Zhi, looking at Li Su with a frosty face, Wang Zhi wisely didn't speak.
"Let's see how he deals with the aftermath first, and when my father-in-law is acquitted, it will be time for me to settle accounts with him, this matter is not over!"
Wang Zhi said cautiously: "What if the person behind the scenes is very big? For example, King Wei, or ...... East Palace. ”
Li Su's mind suddenly appeared in the Ganlu Hall just now, when Li Shimin mentioned the gloomy expression of the next generation of monarchs of the Tang Dynasty, and then Li Su showed an unpredictable smile on his face.
"Today's East Palace, is it really tomorrow's co-master?"
***********************************************************************
Let Wang Zhi send someone to hand the words into the prison of Dali Temple, so that the old man can rest assured, and Li Su led the trilogy to turn around and go towards the Sifang Pavilion.
There is no way, he has to work for him after being ransacked, and he has to do the reception of foreign guests himself, so he can't be lazy anymore.
Outside the Sifang Pavilion, the Tubo people gathered together, and when they saw Li Su and others coming, the Tubo people got out of the way.
Fang Lao Wu and the others stayed outside with interest, glaring at those Tubo people, while Zheng Xiaolou walked in with Li Su without saying a word.
Li Su didn't mind. Since he met Zheng Xiaolou, his existence in the Li family has been very detached, the so-called "detached" means that no one can instruct him to do anything, what to do, how to do it, and to what extent, it all depends on his personal mood, even Li Su can't force him.
If it weren't for the fact that everyone was so familiar, this kind of personal guard Li Su would have been eager to fire him in minutes.
Today, if no one accompanied Li Su into the Sifang Pavilion, it was obvious that Zheng Xiaolou was in a good mood, although he couldn't see any clues on the surface, no matter whether he was happy or angry, he would always maintain the same expression on his face, yes, that's right, the dead man's face, the kind that is suitable for lying in the coffin, occasionally pulling the corners of his mouth and laughing is as terrifying as a corpse.
When Li Su walked into the Sifang Pavilion, he found Lu Dongzan sitting alone in the courtyard, looking up at the big locust tree in the courtyard in a daze.
Seeing Li Su come in, Lu Dongzan's expression immediately became very resentful, and he threw a complicated look at him lightly.
Li Su was embarrassed.
He is indeed too rude to foreign guests, and not to mention the matter of heavy gifts from others, even if it is a normal reception work, Li Su has not done enough, after a thousand years, the prime minister of a country visits, at least he should review a guard of honor, hold a press conference, hold a state banquet or something, but Lu Dongzan has only been hurriedly received by Li Shimin once since he entered Chang'an City, and he chatted for an hour.
Li Su was very guilty, so guilty that he even distorted his smile, exaggerated a smile, and walked forward quickly.
"Ah, forgive your sins, forgive your sins, the lower officials have been neglecting these days, and the lower officials will die!"
didn't see the courtesy, as soon as he grasped Lu Dongzan's hand, he kept shaking, a very novel and unique way of meeting.
Lu Dongzan's smile was obviously not very sincere, and it could be seen that it was also forced.
"The virtuous brother is the important minister of the country, and he is the first minister of the state, what is the crime?"
Li Su still held his hand, and said with a sincere expression: "I really don't hide it, Xia Guan has not been entangled in state affairs these days, but sick, since he was a child, he has been weak, and there are many problems, he fell ill every now and then, sometimes he was excited and confused, and his mind was in chaos, and when he came to his senses, he broke into the trouble, and the things that should not have been done were done, and he invited many famous doctors to see it, but unfortunately he couldn't cure it......"
Life is like a play, Lu Dongzan immediately showed a caring look, and his expression was equally sincere.
"Brother Xian, how are you doing today? If you are not in good health, it is better to go home and continue to recuperate, it is okay for your brother to be here......"
"Brother Lu is noble, the foolish brother is welcome, so I will say goodbye and go home to lie down and recuperate......"
After speaking, Li Su arched his hand and turned around.
"Huh?" Lu Dongzan was stunned.
This...... What kind of person is it, he doesn't play cards according to the routine at all! Can't you understand the kind words?
Fortunately, Li Su immediately turned around again, laughed and said: "Brother Lu, don't be nervous, the foolish brother is just joking with you, you are my honored guest of the Tang Dynasty, if you are thrown in the Sifang Pavilion and ignored, as the master of the state of etiquette, how is this kind of behavior different from a beast?" ”
Lu Dongzan's cheeks twitched a few times, and then he squinted at him, the meaning in his eyes was very clear, you have been a beast for several days, apologize to this baby!
Li Su didn't realize it, looking left and right, Lu Dongzan had no choice but to do his best to be a landlord and invite Li Sutang to take a seat.
The Sifang Pavilion is equivalent to the state guesthouse of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Tang Dynasty, and the foreign guests are not only Tubo, but also envoys from Tianzhu, Gesa, Dashi, Hall and other countries, basically the envoys of each country occupy a courtyard, of course, the envoys of various countries live in it, and they do not often interact with each other, after all, everyone's identity is very sensitive, but it is not just a neighbor relationship.
Walking into the hall, Lu Dongzan invited Li Su to take a seat, and after the guests and hosts sat down, Li Su accompanied Lu Dongzan to greet him for a long time.
Lu Dongzan kept wanting to speak and stopped, Li Su didn't seem to see it, and chatted for a long time about some innocuous and nutritious topics, and finally Lu Dongzan couldn't help it, raised his hand and waved away the maid in the hall, and lowered his voice and said: "A few days ago, Brother Fool sent Deputy Envoy Raza to give a gift to Brother Xian, I don't know if Brother Xian has ever received it?" ”
Li Su showed gratitude: "Brother Lu is generous, and Brother Yu wants to thank him here." ”
Lu Dongzan smiled: "It's good to receive it, you and my brother, you don't have to stick to the vulgar etiquette, the gift is just a private gift from the foolish brother, and the virtuous brother can rest assured if he doesn't dislike the foolish brother." ”
Li Su thanked him a few more words, then his face turned pale, and he sighed faintly: "Since Brother Lu is commensurate with Brother Fool, Brother Brother Lu will also say bluntly, Brother Lu, the gift you gave can kill me!" ”
Lu Dongzan exclaimed: "Why did the virtuous brother say this? ”
Li Su sighed: "I just came back from the Taiji Palace, Your Majesty summoned me today, saying that someone reported me for accepting heavy gifts from Tibet, which was a taboo for the ministers, and I was afraid of being disloyal and unscrupulous, Your Majesty Long Yan was furious, not only ordered me to hand over all the gifts to the treasury, but also fined me for a year......
Raising his eyes and looking at Lu Dongzan with resentment, Li Su's eyes showed a suspicious look: "Brother Lu, you give these heavy gifts, you don't want to separate the foolish brother from His Majesty's monarchy and ministers, right?" (To be continued.) )
