Li Xiuning, Pei Ji and Liu Wenjing stretched out their heads to look under the city wall, and saw that the government announcement office under the city wall was crowded with people's heads. The three of them glanced at each other, then went down the tower, and heard the surrounding crowd talking.

"The young lady of Tang Guogong's mansion was kidnapped by strong men, and anyone who has clues will be rewarded."

"Some of the young ladies in Tang Guogong's mansion dare to move their minds, and they are so courageous."

"However, a lot of women have disappeared in the city recently. Could it be a prostitute who committed the crime?"

"I don't know about that, but I heard that a few days ago, the daughters of the village head of Changwang Village were all kidnapped, and everyone in Changwang Village went to Qiyan Temple."

"I've also heard about this. It is said that the prostitute who kidnapped the village head's daughter in Changwang Village is a monk?"

"Monk? Isn't this a flower monk? I heard that there is a secret method of double cultivation in Buddhism. Is this monk for cultivation?"

The three looked at each other, and Pei Ji said, "Could it be the Tang Guogong I met outside the city yesterday?"

Liu Wenjing nodded and said, "There is only one Tang Guogong in this world, but this thief is too courageous. This Tang Guogong is a relative of the emperor. If this matter is brought to the saint, the emperor will be furious. This Puzhou Heads are rolling to the ground."

Pei Ji shook his head, and said, "Not necessarily, Tang Guogong Li Yuan is not favored by the current emperor because of his surname Li. The rich and powerful in the capital are eager to see Tang Gong's jokes. Now that his daughter is taken away, Tang Gong's reputation is over."

Li Xiuning remained silent, the person who was taken away was himself, and the person who was taken away was also himself, it was a real human comedy.

Liu Wenjing suddenly asked Li Xiuning, "My virtuous brother's surname is Li, does it have something to do with this Tang Guogong?"

Li Xiuning shook her head and said, "I am a branch of the Li family in Longxi, and I have little relationship with Duke Tang's mansion."

Pei Ji nodded, suddenly thought of something, and said, "This Changwang woman is on the city wall. She is one of the missing women. Maybe we can find some clues about the kidnapper from her."

Liu Wenjing also suddenly realized, "But I forgot about this. Brother Pei said yes, but in the current situation, if these people die, I'm afraid there will be no clues."

Li Xiuning didn't know what to say at this time, after all, she was clear about the matter, but now she got these two people involved.

Pei Ji thought for a while, "So we still have to make two preparations. I thought it was just the daughter of the village head of Changwang Village who disappeared, and the situation was still under control, but now that the lady from Tang Guogong's mansion is missing, it's out of control. Even if Tang Guogong Li Yuan is not favored anymore, he is still a Duke after all, representing the face of the imperial court, so it is conceivable that Puzhou is in a mess."

Liu Wenjing frowned and said, "What does Brother Pei mean?"

"Yes, Xiyongqing Temple is a monk. If you run away, a monk can't escape from the temple. This Xiyongqing Temple is the most suspect. I still have to investigate it." Pei Ji said, "As long as it is a problem with Xiyongqing Temple, there will always be a problem. There are clues."

Liu Wenjing nodded, and asked Li Xiuning, "What do you think, Brother Pingyang?"

Li Xiuning was distracted at this time, she couldn't figure out the reason why her parents made such a move, but it made her hard to get off, if she went back at this time, she would definitely not be able to escape the result of marrying a woman, but if she didn't go back, the disturbance would get bigger and bigger, At that time, it will inevitably be difficult to end.

Suddenly I heard Liu Wenjing ask myself, but I didn't hear Liu Wenjing's question clearly, so I could only say vaguely, "Brother Pei and Brother Liu are both talented and learned romantic people, what do I think, little brother, these few days Ri doesn't know what clues the two of you got, and you can't talk nonsense."

Pei Ji smiled and said, "It's not like Pingyang to be so cautious. Forget it, Zhaoren, tell Pingyang about the clues you and I found."

Liu Wenjing immediately told Li Xiuning their speculation about the identity of the kidnapped monk. Li Xiuning couldn't help but frowned. The place where she escaped was a temple, but she didn't know if it was the Xiyongqing Temple.

"Why Pingyang, what do you think?" Pei Ji asked seeing Li Xiuning's frowning.

Li Xiuning shook his head and said, "Since there are clues, it is reasonable to investigate. The identity of this monk is confusing, but I think we should start with the old monks? For example, the abbot of Wangu Temple? "

"Since you want to blame Qiyan Temple, you must have a suspicion with Tan Yan. Let's put it this way, this person must have something to do with Tan Yan. Shouldn't we start with someone who is familiar with Tan Yan?"

Liu Wenjing and Pei Ji looked at each other, and Liu Wenjing said, "Your brother Pingyang really has a clear mind. The master of the Puzhou temple and Tanyan are the abbots of the Wangu Temple. The distance between Xiyongqing Temple and Wangu Temple is not far. There is no problem with Xiyongqing Temple, and it will not be too late for us to go to Wangu Temple."

Li Xiuning just wanted these two people to avoid detours, but these two people seem to have their own opinions, and they are both true masters, but anyway, the culprit has been eliminated, so it's okay to accompany the two of them around.

Li Xiuning glanced back at the city wall, and said to Pei Ji and Liu Wenjing, "Isn't it good to leave General Yao here?"

Liu Wenjing smiled and said, "There are soldiers guarding, ordinary people can't go up the city wall, even if Wang Xingben invited the old god Sun for a while, we can't just sit here during this time, can't we? Although I don't know the village head of Changwang Village How did her daughter escape, but if the mastermind behind the scenes is not removed, this Puzhou woman can't feel at ease."

Pei Ji said, "It's not too late, let's go to Xiyongqing Temple to find out. I thought that Zhaoren and I were weak, but now that you, a five-level martial arts master in Pingyang, are by your side, you have a lot of confidence. "

While the three of them were talking, several guards on horseback rushed towards the gate of the city, galloping their horses with whips, shouting, "Decree by the governor, the four gates of Puzhou are closed, and the whole city is searching for thieves."

Pei Ji, Liu Wenjing, and Li Xiuning were stunned on the spot, the city gates were closed, how did they get out of the city?
When the rider arrived in front of him, Li Xiuning saw that Li Shentong and Li Jiancheng were surrounded by several guards, so he hurriedly turned away.

But with Li Shentong's sharp eyes, he saw a hint of surprise flashing in Li Xiuning's eyes, he hurriedly got off his horse, walked up to him, and said to Li Xiuning, "I just couldn't find a good brother in Yuelai Inn, but I don't want to meet you here. Brother."

Seeing that he couldn't escape, Li Xiuning could only salute Li Shentong and said, "So it's Brother Li, how is your injury?"

Li Shentong patted his chest, and said, "It's all right now, Brother Lao Xian misses you."

Li Xiuning nodded, nodded to Li Jiancheng who was standing aside, and said, "I have met His Royal Highness."

Li Jiancheng suddenly felt a familiar chill creeping up his back, as if his elder sister wanted to teach him.

But this feeling disappeared in a flash. Seeing Li Xiuning nod to him, got off the horse, walked up to him, and said with a smile, "Brother Li, where are you going?"

Li Xiuning couldn't help laughing from the bottom of her heart, this Bishaman called her brother Li, and Li Shentong called her good brother, the seniority was completely messed up.

Li Shentong said to Li Xiuning, "It's been half a decade since we left Chang'an, and Brother Pingyang looks more and more talented."

Then he glanced at Pei Ji and Liu Wenjing, and suddenly felt that the two seemed very generous, but Li Jiancheng said in surprise, "Did the two gentlemen and I meet before the checkpoint yesterday?"

Li Shentong said with a smile, "Brother Pingyang, won't you introduce these two sages to Brother Wei?"

As the spokesperson of Tang Guogong's government in the arena, how can Li Shentong's eyesight be compared to ordinary people?One can tell at a glance that the two of them are scholars of the four realms, and in Chang'an, they are all famous scholars below the great Confucianism of the five realms.

This Puzhou is indeed rich in resources, rich in treasures and outstanding in people.

Li Xiuning immediately smiled and said, "These two, one is Pei Ji Pei Xuanzhen from the Sangquan Pei Family of the Wenxi Pei Family, and the other is Liu Wenjing and Liu Zhaoren, both of whom are well-learned poets and books, two dear friends, this is Tang Guogong's Clan brother, Li Shentong, brother Li, that is Tang Guogong's son, Li Jiancheng."

After several people greeted each other, Li Shentong asked, "Are the three going out of the city?"

Pei Ji nodded and said, "I was entrusted by someone to go out of the city to do some things."

But Liu Wenjing said suddenly, "What is Xuanzhen doing in a secret way? When I left the city, I was looking for clues about the woman's disappearance. Miss Tang Guogong was also taken away. It can't be said that it was done by one person. At this time, we should work together and rely on you and me. , Finding the person behind the scenes is like looking for a needle in a haystack."

Pei Ji originally wanted to hold Liu Wenjing back, but seeing what Liu Wenjing said, he couldn't help but think that the Duke of Tang's mansion is also a sufferer, so maybe it can be used.

Li Shentong looked at Pei Ji, Liu Wenjing and Li Xiuning and asked, "What clues did you find?"

Pei Ji shook his head and said, "There are some eyebrows, but they are not very clear, and I need to go out of the city to find out."

Li Shentong clasped his fists at the three of them and said, "It's a good thing to have a good look, so I ask the three of you to bring me and your son. After all, the lady's disappearance is related to the face of my Tang Guogong's family. My Tang Guogong's mansion wants money. Give people to others, and help the three sages."

Li Xiuning was stunned. Could it be that Li Shentong and Li Jiancheng should follow him?How to play this?
Pei Ji smiled and said, "Master Li is being polite. He was originally entrusted by others, but now with the help of the Duke's Mansion, it is even more powerful."

At this time, a voice came from behind the few people, "It is about the safety of my mistress of the Chai family, and I have a share in this matter."

Seeing Chai Leopard and Ma Sanbao approaching, Chai Leopard bowed to the three of them and said, "Chai Leopard has met a few of them, and I also want to know who dares to move a tiger on my Chai family's head in this river east?" Xu, in this way, the two of my brothers will also accompany the three of you."

Then he glanced at Li Xiuning with a slightly deep look.

Li Xiuning knew that Chai Bao doubted his identity, but he was not sure. There would probably be a lot of trouble along the way.

If this Chai Leopard really wants to fix something, I don't mind killing him quietly.

My old lady is a martial arts master of the five realms, you Chai Leopard and Ma Sanbao are not enough to beat my old lady with one hand.

Pei Ji and Liu Wenjing looked happy. If the Chai family could help with the matter in this river east, it would definitely get twice the result with half the effort. From the words, the two had already judged that one of the two members of the Chai family should be the Chai Leopard, the steward of Chai, who is known as the economic unparalleled One is Ma Sanbao, the third master of the Chai family's guards, who is called Lord Ma by people in the rivers and lakes.

Li Xiuning frowned, and said, "The clues I'm waiting for are just clues, so it's bound to draw people's attention with such a big fanfare."

Chai Bao laughed, "Is this Li Pingyang who overwhelmed my lines with several poems on the Guanque Tower?"

Li Xiuning immediately understood why Chai Leopard looked at him with that kind of eyes. The Chai family is a local snake in the east of the river. It could be said that the Guanque Tower is the property of the Chai family. After all, he was careless. Many people who study poetry have read it, not to mention that Lu Lun is a famous frontier poet.

In this era when the rhythm of poetry is not complete, a poem with a neat rhythm is definitely at the level of Wang Zha, and it is difficult to escape the eyes of those who care.

In addition, Li Zhao's name is Pingyang, Pingyangzhao, isn't this not self-inflicted?
No wonder Chai Leopard became suspicious.

"Pingyang's talent is like a vast ocean, which can hold up half of our poetry circle in the Sui Dynasty." Liu Wenjing laughed, "It seems that Director Chai also saw Pingyang's poems on the Guanque Tower?"

Li Xiuning's expression was a little bit wrong when he heard that half of the country, any half of the world must be a collapsed product.

Before I crossed over, someone propped up half of the ghost animal area of ​​a certain station, and the house began to collapse in the blink of an eye?What is known as half of the country in the music world, grabbing the headlines will always encounter big incidents, Chang Kaishen, who wants to rule the river, also wants to save half of the country, didn't he become the island owner and go fishing in the end?
"I admire you very much." Chai Bao looked at Li Xiuning with a half-smile and said.

Li Xiuning immediately wanted to kick Chai Leopard to death with one foot, what kind of look is this?I am probably not far from being exposed.

Ma Sanbao said suddenly, "What clues did you find, can you tell me?"

Pei Ji thought for a while, and said, "It's not a secret, the three of us were entrusted by Master Tan Yan, the national teacher of Qiyan Temple, to help investigate the disappearance of the village head's daughter in Changwang Village."

"Entrusted by the National Teacher?" Everyone asked in surprise.

Pei Ji nodded, Liu Wenjing sighed, and said, "In the past few days, Xuanzhen and I have been visiting Changwang Village. According to the descriptions of witnesses and the scent of sandalwood at the scene, the captor is probably a monk."

"Monk? Could it be that the monks from Qiyan Temple did it?" Ma Sanbao frowned, and said, "I'm just going to summon guards and go to Qiyan Temple to ask for someone."

Pei Ji smiled, "Master Ma, this is what the thief wants to get."

Liu Wenjing also laughed, "People from Changwang Village have already been to Qiyan Temple."

Ma Sanbao looked at Chai Leopard, and Chai Leopard nodded. Chai Leopard had mastered the information network of the Chai family, and he was well informed. Ma Sanbao just came from Yanchi, but some news was a little behind.

"What does this mean?" Pei Ji said, "The thief wants to bring trouble to the east."

"But this thief may or may not be a monk." Cai Bao said, "Pretending to be a monk may also be a way to cover up his identity."

Pei Ji smiled, "Director Chai is indeed very clever. I discussed with Zhaoren for a long time and came to a conclusion. Why did the thief pretend to be a monk? It shows that the thief is very familiar with the monk. Even if he is not a monk, he must have inextricable connections with the monk." Relationship."
