The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1664 Worth looking forward to
Dai Zhou's estimate was correct, because Dou Yan had already gone to Dali Temple in a carriage. After retreating, Dai Zhou deliberately walked slowly and fell behind Dou Yan. This time Dai Zhou returned to Dali Temple , I guess the first person I saw was Dou Yan.

Regarding what the prince Li Chengqian said in the early court, Dou Yan was thinking about it, and Dai Zhou was also thinking about it, but what Dai Zhou thought about the most was that the prince was perfunctory to the Dou family.

The power of the Dou family is really too great. The Dou family more than 20 years ago, even the royal family of Li and Tang were afraid of three points. Although the Dou family is not so arrogant now, it is still an existence that should not be underestimated. Over the years, the court Starting to weaken the influence of these aristocratic families on the imperial court has already achieved initial results, but the connections between the Dou family and the Li Tang royal family cannot be severed overnight. To deal with such a deep-rooted family like the Dou family, it can only be boiled in warm water frog.

Otherwise, it would not have been more than 20 years. The Dou family is still a situation of nine governors and three important officials in the court. How many officials can stand in the Hanyuan Hall every morning?The three brothers of the Dou family are all in the court class.

The prince is perfunctory to Dou Yan, but even if it is perfunctory, it is too easy for Dou Yan to make a fuss. It seems that today's life is not easy.

Sighing secretly in his heart, Dai Zhou got into the carriage and went back to Dali Temple.

That Di Renjie is a rare talent, I hope this case can be closed as soon as possible in his hands, it feels so uncomfortable to be caught in the middle.

After retiring from the imperial court, Deyi went back to His Majesty Li Er's bedroom, while Li Chengqian took his personal eunuch to the Xuanzheng Hall. After discussing matters in the court hall, there were still a lot of memorials waiting for him in the Xuanzheng Hall.

Walking to the entrance of the Xuanzheng Hall, the little yellow gate waiting outside the hall bowed to Li Chengqian.

"Your Highness, Xuan Gong is waiting for His Highness in the hall." Xiao Huangmen said.

"Well, I know." Li Chengqian replied.

Li Chengqian knew that Xuan Shijing would come to find him, but he didn't expect that he would come so early. Also, he sent Dai Zhou's booklet to Xuan Shijing's home in Daozhengfang as soon as he retired yesterday. Xuan Shijing also needs to intervene, now Xuan Shijing has ended Huo Mu early and entered the palace to find himself.

Thinking of this, Li Chengqian walked into the Xuanzheng Hall, and saw Xuan Shijing who was standing in the hall and looking around.

"It was a coincidence that I would give you two days to rest and take a bath. When something like this happened, I had to let you take action." Li Chengqian walked into the hall while talking.

Hearing Li Chengqian's voice, Xuan Shijing came back to his senses and bowed his hands in salute.

"It's really not the right time for this case to happen." Xuan Shijing straightened up and said with a smile: "But it's a coincidence that when this case happened, I was at the scene, and the boat where Dou Shanglie was located was next to my boat. It was also when people from Dali Temple surrounded Xuanwu Lake, and it was only when we arrived at the scene of the crime that people died on the nearby painting boat."

"You were also on Xuanwu Lake that night?" Li Chengqian asked, "Then can you see that something is wrong?"

Xuan Shiqing shook his head helplessly: "If I had seen something was wrong beforehand, I wouldn't have waited until the people from Dali Temple came to find out that there was a death on the boat. Moreover, the death was caused by Dou Shanglie, and I did it yesterday. I didn't know it when I was there that night."

"That's it." Li Chengqian was also excited in vain, thinking that he could hear some different news from Xuan Shijing: "Then what do you think of this case?"

"Dou Shanglie died of poisoning. This is the result of the investigation in Dali Temple, but what kind of poison has not been found out so far. It is estimated that an autopsy is needed." Xuan Shijing said: "But Dou Shanglie's death, It probably won't be that simple."

"Open the autopsy?" Li Chengqian suddenly realized what he was thinking, and said with a smile, "It's no wonder that at the end of the morning morning, the members of the Dou family couldn't help but fear that the Dali Temple would open the corpse."

"Is there any movement in the Dou family?" Xuan Shijing asked.

Li Chengqian nodded: "Well, during the morning court today, Dou Yan said that Dou Shilun was unwell, and he might not be able to go to the morning court for a few days. Yesterday I saw that Dou Shilun was still alive and kicking, so he said that he was not feeling well at home this morning. Self-cultivation, I made it clear that I want to put pressure on Dali Temple and let the people in Dali Temple continue to speed up the investigation. I guess I still want to bring Dou Shanglie's body back to Dou's house, and I don't want Wu Zuo to destroy Dou Shanglie's body. I got through it perfunctorily, but even though I made do with it, the people of the Dou family probably won't let it go so easily, Dai Zhou will be in trouble."

"Dou Yan and Dai Zhou are both foxes, let them pinch each other." Xuan Shijing said with a helpless smile, "As long as it doesn't affect the investigation, it doesn't matter."

"Then you came to the palace so early today, what do you want to know?" Li Chengqian looked at Xuan Shijing and asked.

"It's nothing, I just want to ask His Highness if the Dou family can be suppressed during the investigation of this case." Xuan Shijing said: "If the Dou family is involved, it is the Dou family who died. This is troublesome. What I am most afraid of is that the Dou family did not follow the rules and made some moves behind their backs. There were also many people in Xuanwu Lake that night. This matter was also spread in Luoyang City. To act recklessly will not look good on the court's face."

Li Chengqian nodded: "Indeed."

What is the virtue of the Dou family, Li Chengqian, as the prince of the Tang Dynasty, still doesn't know?
After thinking about it carefully, Li Chengqian said: "You can go and investigate this case. There is no need to worry about the movement of the Dou family in the court. I will help you deal with it. As for the small movements behind the Dou family, in Luoyang City, only You can take precautions yourself, I heard that the young man named Di Renjie you recommended to Dali Temple has some skills, he should be investigating this matter, right?"

"Exactly." Xuan Shijing replied.

"If that's the case, let me see that young man's ability." Li Chengqian said with a smile: "It's a good thing for young people to have ability, and if they have ability, they will have a future."

Obviously, if Di Renjie can handle this case well, he will officially enter the eyes of Prince Li Chengqian, no matter whether he investigates this case by himself or cooperates with Xuan Shijing to investigate it together.

Li Chengqian's words promised a bright future for Di Renjie. It's a pity that he didn't say it in front of Di Renjie, otherwise it would definitely give Di Renjie more encouragement. Now, these words can only come through Xuan Shijing's mouth , to convey to Di Renjie.
