In the side room of Tongfu Temple, Mr. Cui, who was usually elegant and elegant, hung on the beam of the house like a dead dog.

Zhang San and others pretended to be the illusion of committing suicide fearing guilt.

However, Zhang San was feeling a little mixed with emotions at this time, staring at the flying snow outside the house, his eyes no longer had a focus.

The subordinates who accompanied him were standing behind him without saying a word, listening to the sound of soldiers searching from the temple on the other side, the two of them seemed a little depressed.

Zhang San sighed quietly. He could already see his soon-to-be fate. He withdrew his gaze, turned around and looked at his subordinates behind him, and asked, "Do you regret coming to carry out this mission?"

The man straightened his chest and said softly: "What are you going to regret? From the moment he received the task, the young man was ready to not be able to go back."

"And the head of the family has agreed that if there is any accident, my family will definitely be compensated and taken care of. It's a pity that I can't advance and retreat with my brothers."

Zhang San patted his shoulder and nodded with relief: "It's worthy of being my brother Zhang San. The temple has been blocked. You must prepare for the worst, but it's not without a chance."

As a dead soldier trained secretly, Zhang San had expected such a day, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly.

At this time, footsteps sounded outside the door, and a petite man rushed in from outside the house, came to Zhang San, clasped his fists and said, "Captain, the people of the hundred cavalry have surrounded this temple and cannot escape at all."

"They are looking for our side courtyard. They will inevitably rush in and search in not long. My subordinates have just found the location of Empress Xiao. Let's act quickly?"

Another subordinate was a little stunned. The temple was blocked and the place was also stared at. What else would he do?

Empress Xiao? Could it be...

Then his eyes lit up and he became excited.

This is how people are. As long as there is a slight hope, who wants to die?

At the critical moment, Zhang San certainly would not pretend to behave and explained: "Although hundreds of cavalry have blocked the temple, they will definitely not dare to search the Zen room where Empress Dowager Xiao worships Buddha. As long as we can hide in or hold Empress Dowager Xiao hostage, there will be a glimmer of hope."

"This time I failed to retreat in time because I was wrong with the plan, which made you even implicated. If I had known it, I should have done it directly and prevent Cui Yongjian from being too slow."

The man who had just arrived said in a deep voice: "At the beginning, the Baikong was stopped by the abbot of Tongfu Temple and did not dare to enter. Who would know that Baikong actually dared to suddenly break into Tongfu Temple for search?"

"Your Majesty ordered soldiers not to enter Tongfu Temple back then. I wonder why those soldiers were so brave?"

Not only was he strange, but Zhang San was also deeply puzzled.

The original plan, if it can be transferred, it will be transferred. If it cannot be transferred, Cui Yongjian will be silenced and hide in Tongfu Temple.

When the limelight came over and went back, but the Baiqi actually dared to break in and search, which caught them off guard.

Based on Zhang San's understanding of Li Junxian, this commander was loyal and would never dare to disobey the emperor's orders and enter without authorization.

But now the Hundred Knights broke in and searched directly, which was really surprising!

This made Zhang San unable to help but think of the Zhongyi Hou who temporarily joined Baiqi to assist in investigating the case.

Before coming, the head of the family specifically told him to be careful of the stick, but Zhang San didn't think so at first.

Now that he is about to fall, Zhang San doesn't know what it feels like.

As expected, it must be the credit of the Zhongyi Marquis who was forced into such a desperate situation.

I just don’t know why that guy is so reckless that he dares to ignore His Majesty Li Er’s imperial order and break in. He is indeed different from ordinary people.

It seems that that guy is not only good at literary talent, can fight, can make money, and is also flexible enough, and his style of being quick and fast is fully reflected.

However, this young Marquis of Zhongyi is really capable, no wonder the head of the family was so afraid of him.

Seeing Zhang San falling into deep thought, the subordinate who had just come in interrupted his thoughts in a deep voice.

"Captain, if you want to go, set off immediately. If you delay any further, it will be too late!"

A cold light flashed in Zhang San's eyes and he said sternly: "Things have come to this point, success or failure is here. If you fail, I, Zhang San, live and die with everyone and will never live."

"Life and die together!" Perhaps in order to enhance courage, the two subordinates looked at each other and shouted in unison with determination to die.

As soon as several people left the side courtyard and sneaked towards the Buddhist temple, the sound of the courtyard behind them breaking out.

...

At the gate of Tongfu Temple, Yang Fan originally wanted to fool the abbot Tokugawa and prevent him from going to interfere with the search of Baiqi.

But now I am so annoyed by this old abbot.

The abbot Tokugawa looked at Yang Fan with his eyes glowing, and eagerly persuaded: "The Marquis' understanding of Buddhism made the old monk admire him. He had such wisdom at a young age, so he must be the reincarnation of an Arhat. It is better for the Marquis to convert to Buddhism and spread the great selfless spirit for me..."

Looking at the endless talk of Tokugawa abbot, Yang Fan was speechless.

hehe!

Converting to Buddhism is simply a joke.

Several beauties are waiting for themselves, and their beautiful life has just begun, leaving him empty all four. Isn’t this nonsense?

Seeing this guy's relentless look, Yang Fan really gave a few Buddhist verses to show off!

Just as he was about to use some method to escape, Qin Huaidao rushed over: "Marty, Cui Yongjian hanged himself in the side room of the temple!"

"What, Cui Yongjian committed suicide? Take this marquis with him now!" Yang Fan was stunned for a moment and couldn't believe it.

The children of these aristocratic families are very arrogant and have a wealthy life, so they cannot be determined to commit suicide.

The most important thing is that the existing evidence only shows that Cui Yongjian transported the crossbow out of Chang'an City and did not recognize him as the mastermind.

If it were just a crime of transporting the crossbow, with the power of the Cui clan in Qinghe, although it was impossible for him to be completely exempted from his guilt, I think it would not be a heavy punishment, and there was no need to commit suicide.

Yang Fan's first reaction was that Cui Yongjian was silenced, and Duan Zhixuan's figure couldn't help but appear in his mind.

Just now, Duan Zhixuan turned around and walked away from the Baiqi Station neatly. He thought this guy gave in and said that he was using this trick.

Really careless!

When Yang Fan and Tokugawa abbot entered the side yard, Cui Yongjian's body had been put down.

The abbot Tokugawa had a pale face. Unexpectedly, someone died in the temple, and he was the target of the marquis.

Holding the panic in his heart, the abbot Tokugawa stepped forward and looked at the corpse carefully. He suddenly screamed and said in disbelief:

"Isn't this person a pilgrim from a few days ago? He claims to be a merchant from the Western Regions. Because the road is blocked with heavy snow, he has been renting here. Who would have thought that he was the suspect who assassinated the King of Wu?"

He ignored the fuss of Tokugawa's abbot. Yang Fan looked around for a week and asked, "Have you found other people?"

Li Junxian frowned: "No, the house has been searched all over, and there is no one else. Even if there are, I think we have already escaped before we come."

Yang Fan did not give up. In his opinion, Li Junxian was an excellent general. He was more suitable for the battlefield of confrontation between the two armies, rather than the spy department that was untied.

On the contrary, although Qin Huaidao is young, he is meticulous and has a quick ability to accept new things. He is born to be a good person who engages in intelligence.

As soon as this guy came in, his eyes were scorching around.

So Yang Fan turned to Qin Huaidao and asked, "Huaidao, have you discovered it?"

Qin Huaidao touched the bedding with his hand and said, "There is still warm on the bed. It is obvious that Cui Yongjian once slept on it. A person who wanted to commit suicide could not sleep, but he got up early in the morning to commit suicide."

"In addition, this hanger rope has just been measured. With Cui Yongjian's height, there is no need to tie it so high. Otherwise, it would be a bit illogical to jump from the stool if it were hanging."

"These abnormalities show that Choi Yongjian did not commit suicide, but homicide."

Yang Fan was stunned now!

Qin Huaidao is worthy of being a good at intelligence. It took so long before he discovered so many problems.

Li Junxian sighed regretfully: "It's just a little bit short. If I had come here earlier, Cui Yongjian would not have died. Alas, the person who killed him might have run away long ago. It would be difficult to find the person behind the scenes!"

Qin Huaidao's face was still a little tender and a confident smile appeared, and he said confidently: "I don't know if I can find the person behind the scenes, but the person who killed Cui Yongjian may not be able to be caught."

Yang Fan smiled and praised: "Huaidao's thoughts are indeed delicate!"

Qin Huaidao smiled embarrassedly and said modestly: "Marquis Zhongyi is too honored. Haven't you posted it long ago?"

Yang Fan patted Qin Huaidao on the shoulder intimately and laughed: "I am not arrogant or impatient, and I am the Ming Qiuhao, who is worthy of being the master of Yiguo, is not bad!"

Qin Huaidao grinned and showed a smile that was not much better than crying!

The marquis's hand was too strong, and he almost knelt down. He was as good as Duke Lu, Cheng Yaojin, who liked to tease people so much.

What made him even more depressed was that the words of this marquis were too hurtful.

If I hadn't just discovered the clue and said a few more humble words, wouldn't I admit that it was my father's species?

Li Junxian didn't know the inner activities of the two. Seeing that they were sympathetic and fighting a hoarse fan, he seemed even more confused: "What do you two mean?"

Yang Fan briefly explained a few words, and Li Junxian said in surprise: "You mean that the person who killed Cui Yongping is still in the temple."

"Of course!" Yang Fan nodded confidently.

Qin Huaidao led people to Tongfu Temple first. There was no possibility of the murderer going out. These people could only hide in the temple.

At this moment, soldiers came to report: "Marty, General, there is a footprint outside the courtyard to walk towards the Buddhist temple. The man sent someone to follow him, but he lost his trace in the Buddhist temple hall."

Yang Fan waved his hand: "Search it for me, don't let every corner."

Li Junxian had a calm face and a little depressed. He didn't expect that these people were actually in the Buddhist temple.

If it weren't for the fact that he had come here earlier, he might have saved Cui Yongjian's life.

Of course, Li Junxian didn't care about Cui Yongjian's life or death, but wanted to find the person behind Cui Yongjian.

The abbot Tokugawa who was standing beside him came over and said awkwardly: "That...Master Tadao, you have to believe me. I really don't know that the suspect is hiding in the temple. Look... can you report to Your Majesty... cough cough..."

It would be strange if he heard that the assailant was still in the temple and his obstruction caused the death of an important suspect.
