Drive the RV back to Datang

Chapter 623 Chapter 641: Knocking the Mountain and Shaking the Tiger

After leaving the morning, Wang Chenghuan, the servant of Zhongshu, kept frowning. After leaving the imperial city, he hurriedly boarded the sedan chair, urging the bearers to hurry back. On the way, he stuck his head out of the window of the sedan chair, urging the bearers to speed up again. speed.

After finally arriving at the door of the house, Wang Chenghuan hurriedly got off the sedan chair, trotted all the way into the house, and ran to the study in a hurry after entering the courtyard, shouting to the housekeeper while running: "Wang An, hurry up and prepare the pigeons, sir, I want to fly!" The pigeon passed the book and merged the state."

"Yes!" Seeing his haste, the steward guessed that something serious must have happened, so he didn't dare to neglect, and hurriedly prepared the pigeons.

To the northeast of Chang'an City, there is a large poplar forest, about seventeen or eight miles away from Chang'an. In front of the poplar forest, there is a large piece of wasteland, and the wasteland is full of waist-high weeds.

However, at this moment, there is a large area of ​​the wasteland where the weeds have been cleaned up, and it seems that they have been crushed with stone rollers to make a rice field for drying rice. There are no people living here for more than ten miles. Such a field appears , very abnormal, and this valley field seems to be newly built, even the grass ash on it is very new.

In the center of the grain field, there are more than a dozen stalls of rice and corn, and each stall contains not much rice, only about half a catty. However, if you look carefully, you will find that each stall of rice has a The circle made of thin rope can be recognized by experienced people at a glance. It is a trap for bird hunting, and the word trap is probably derived from it.

There are more than a dozen nooses in more than a dozen stalls of millet. These bird-catching nooses extend to the woods more than 20 meters away. Looking at Guchang, while Di Renjie stared at the sky in the direction of Chang'an, each of them held a bow and arrow in their hands.

This group of arresters was very patient. They waited from the morning until almost noon, without moving a muscle, not even daring to say a word. Finally, Di Renjie exclaimed in surprise: "Get ready, the pigeon is here. If the pigeon doesn't eat, it will be shot directly." .”

"Yes!" Everyone answered in low voices.

The white carrier pigeon flew over. It seemed to see the grain on the grain field. This was a great temptation for the pigeon. Although it had only flown for more than a dozen miles, the bird died for food. Birds have big mouths. Greedy, want to eat food when they see it, unless they are already very full.

The pigeon landed on the grain field, fluttered its wings, and then hopped to a pool of rice and began to peck at the rice.

Di Renjie looked carefully for a moment, then said in a low voice, "It's Tan Jun's line, Tan Jun, take it up!"

A young pimple-faced catcher heard the words and pulled the rope violently. The thin rope snare immediately began to shrink rapidly, and it caught the pigeon's legs at once, and both legs were caught. The pigeon flapped its wings and struggled. But it was of no avail, the slipknot tightened as it struggled.

Di Renjie was overjoyed when he saw this, and quickly rushed out of the woods to the valley, grabbed the pigeon, and looked at the pigeon's leg. Sure enough, there was a reed pipe tied to the pigeon's leg, and both ends were sealed with beeswax.

At this time, other police officers had already arrived, and one of them was holding a pigeon cage in his hand. The policeman carrying the pigeon cage looked at Di Renjie with adoring eyes, and said, "Master Shaoqing, are you the reincarnation of a god?" ? You can predict the future, how do you know that there will be carrier pigeons?"

"Guess." Di Renjie is a little proud at the moment, he really has the right to be proud, why, because after he learned that Chang Fu is from Bingzhou, he came up with a clever trick called knocking the mountain to shake the tiger.

How to knock the mountain and shake the tiger? First of all, he speculated that the possibility of Li Hao being the murderer is extremely low. Someone must be trying to frame Li Hao. Since Li Hao was being framed, it is likely to be someone from the court. He deliberately told Sun Fujia Today, he will go to Bingzhou to check the details of Changfu, and he also knows that Sun Fujia will definitely report these to Li Shimin.

Then those who framed Li Hao will naturally hear the news in the hall, and they will be panicked. After the court is over, they will definitely send a letter to Bingzhou. The only possibility is Feige passing on the book.

The flight of pigeons is not restricted by roads, they usually fly straight, and their current location is on the straight line between Chang'an and Bingzhou, clearing the grain field, spreading rice, just to attract the carrier pigeons to land and eat, so that they can be caught alive. He is useful, but if the pigeons are not attracted by the rice, then he can only shoot down the pigeons with crossbow bolts.

Now that the carrier pigeon has been captured alive, and everything is exactly as he expected, can Di Renjie not be happy?

Di Renjie unfastened the reed tube from the pigeon's leg, stuffed the pigeon into the pigeon cage, opened the reed tube, and took out the paper strip inside. The paper strip was rolled into a small roll, only two inches long and half an inch wide when unfolded Seeing that there were two lines written in petty characters: "Dali Temple sent Di Renjie to investigate Chen Fu, be careful!"

After seeing the content of the note, the other arresting officers and Dali Sicheng were quite disappointed, because there was no signature or address on it, and they had no idea who wrote it and who it was passed on to.

Di Renjie's mouth was slightly raised, showing a happy smile. He is not an ordinary person. He got very important information from the content of this note.

First of all, that Chang Fu is not called Chang Fu at all, but his surname is Chen, and his name is Chen Fu. This information is very important. If you want to check someone, even the name is wrong. How can you check?
Secondly, judging from the handwriting, the handwriting on this note is very small, but the handwriting is very clear, but the handwriting is a bit ugly.

Speaking of ugly handwriting, the ugliest handwriting in Chaozhong is of course Li Hao, but Di Renjie can be sure that this is not Li Hao's handwriting, because Li Hao's handwriting is uglier than this, and he can be sure that these two lines of characters are written with his left hand , Why do you write with your left hand? The purpose is to deliberately hide your own handwriting. It is not bad to be able to write with your left hand to this extent.

Di Renjie has read the files all the year round, and has also studied the handwriting deeply. Since the person who wrote this note may have practiced handwriting with his left hand, he can deduce the handwriting of his right hand from the handwriting of his left hand.

Di Renjie seemed to be flipping through countless files in his mind. His mind was like a computer, with a lot of data in it. Soon, 16 people met the requirements from the right-hand handwriting deduced from the left-hand handwriting, which is still a bit large.

But you can add conditions and then filter, assassinate Nanzhao envoys, and blame King Qiongnan, this is not a trivial matter, and it is definitely not something that ordinary forces dare to do. It can be seen from this that it must be a big force, and who is the biggest force in Bingzhou? , There is only one answer, Taiyuan Wang.

Taiyuan is the land of the great ancestor Li Yuan, and the Taiyuan royal family is the first to support Li Yuan among all the powerful families. Because they are the first, they are extremely trusted by the old Li family. Li Shimin beat the powerful family many times, but Never touched a single hair of the Wang family, even!Prince Li Zhi's concubine is the daughter of the royal family, the concubine, she is the future queen, it can be seen that Li Shimin attaches great importance to the Wang family.

But right now, the Wang family seems to be in trouble. Di Renjie is almost certain that the Taiyuan Wang family is the real culprit behind the case of poisoning the Nanzhao envoy in Taibailou, because he has other evidence, and he has already found the person who wrote the note in his heart. This person is Wang Chenghuan, the Minister of Zhongshu.

Because among the sixteen people selected by Di Renjie from the handwriting, only Wang Chenghuan is from the Wang family of Taiyuan. Moreover, Wang Chenghuan fell down once in the winter three years ago, knocked his arm on the stone steps, broke his bone, and recuperated for nearly three years. During the past three months, he has been eating and writing with his left hand. No wonder he writes well with his left hand. It is true that he has practiced, but he was forced to practice.

Having identified the person who wrote the letter and the real culprit behind the scenes, the next thing will be easy. Di Renjie is in a good mood, and he takes two hundred policemen to the woods to lead the horses, and gallops away in the direction of Bingzhou.
