Chang'an County, county government.

Pei Xingjian was a little worried and sat in the study room of the back house in a daze.

Chang'an County has successively experienced incidents. First, there was a murder case in Lingbao Temple, where a beauty in front of the late emperor died, while the suspect was a talent in front of the late emperor. Immediately afterwards, when there was evidence to prove that the suspect was innocent, Zongzhengsi insisted on executing the suspect, which confused Pei Xingjian. Of course, he did not object to Zongzhengsi's decision.

After all, this is all within the royal family.

From the day he entered the officialdom, he adhered to one principle and did not get involved in the right and wrong of the royal family.

As for why Zongzheng Temple wanted to execute Mingkong?

He didn't care, because he never cared about the life or death of a talented man.

If Mingkong is not out of date, the emperor will decide; since Mingkong is out of date, what does her life and death have to do with him?

But unexpectedly, after this, a series of accidents were triggered.

First, the Chang'an prison girl was burned, and the left guard general, the daughter of his mentor Su Dingfang, was seriously injured.

Although Pei Xingjian didn't know why Su Qingfang became a classic of the Provincial Escort Bureau, he was very serious.

Afterwards, another case occurred in Lingbao Temple.

First, Nie Su disappeared, then De Rong disappeared.

Before these two cases could be achieved, the Maitreya Hall was destroyed, and there seemed to be a strange occurrence.

The case was submitted to the Taishi Bureau, and it was thought that the result would be soon. But immediately afterwards, Su Qingjie discovered Su Dawei's whereabouts.

The two sides fought fiercely in Furong Lane, Tongshanfang, Wannian County, and Su Dawei fled without a trace.

Su Qingjie was summoned home by Su Dingfang and scolded him very much.

Afterwards, Su Qingjie went to Kunming Chi to compete with Yuchi Baolin. Although he won a great victory, he was also slightly injured...

This series of things was enough to make Pei Xingjian busy.

He was scolded by Shangguan one after another and returned to the county government, but there was still no news.

This also gave Pei Xingjian a headache and didn't know how to proceed. Should he continue to investigate? Or did he ignore it?

Just when he was in a dilemma, Su Qingjie came to tell him that he suspected that Ming Zhen of Lingbao Temple was the real murderer and asked to enter Lingbao Temple for investigation. My little master, although Lingbao Temple is a Buddhist temple, it is a royal Buddhist temple.

The monks inside were mainly concubines from the late emperor during his lifetime.

There have been a series of accidents. At this time, if you go to Lingbao Temple for investigation, it is not an investigation, but a slap in the face of the royal family.

And at this time, it is estimated that Lingbao Temple will not agree to their entry into the temple.

Before Su Qingjie could be comforted, news came from Lingbao Temple: Master Mingzhen is missing!

My dear master, this Lingbao Temple is too evil.

From Mingkong and Minghui to now, five people have had an accident.

"Lion, you can go and investigate, but you must not disturb the nobles in the temple's practice? Otherwise, your father will not be able to protect you."

Su Qingjie said: "Brother, don't worry, I know the importance of it."

If you really know the importance of it, you will not be able to beat Yuchi Baolin in Kunming Lake.

It is also a blessing that Duke E and the old Yuchi Gong have begun to cultivate one's own character in recent years, but they have not come out to ask Yuchi Baolin for justice. Otherwise, not only will the Chang'an County Government be in chaos, but they are afraid that even Su Dingfang will not be able to live in peace.

But if he wasn't allowed to go, this kid might run away secretly.

Since that's the case, let him take a look.

Pei Xingjian also sent Chen Shiyilang and Zhou Liang to accompany him. One of them was calm and capable, and the other was smart, which could at least prevent Su Qingjie from causing trouble. Even so, Pei Xingjian was still worried and a little worried.

"Mr., someone outside asks for a visit."

"who?"

Pei Xingjian was upset, so he didn't have a good tone when speaking.

"It is said that it is from the mansion of Nancheng County. Please ask the husband to come and talk to him."

Nancheng County Male?

Pei Xingjian was stunned and looked up.

The person who came to report the news was his confidant, Wang Sheng.

"What did the man in Nancheng County ask me to do? I don't seem to know him."

There is no reason why Pei Xingjian reacted like this.

This man in Nancheng County, surnamed Wang, was named Wang Jingzhi.

Listen, aren't you a little unfamiliar?

However, if you mention Wang Jingzhi's father, he would definitely be famous during the Zhenguan period.

Wang Jingzhi's father was named Wang Gui, whose courtesy name was Shujie, and he was from Taiyuan. He was the grandson of Wang Sengbian, the Minister of the Southern Liang Dynasty. He was one of the four famous prime ministers in the early Tang Dynasty.

In the 13th year of Kaihuang in the Sui Dynasty, Wang Gui was summoned to the secretary to introspection and was appointed as the Taichang Zhili Lang.

After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, he served as the consultant of the Crown Prince's Office, as the prince's Zhongshe, and the prince Zhongyun, as the confidant of the prince Li Jiancheng. Later, he was exiled due to the Yang Wengan incident. After Li Shimin ascended the throne, Wang Gui was recalled to Chang'an again. He served as the counselor, the minister of the Huangmen, the minister of the Ministry of Rites, and was granted the title of Duke of Yongning County. In the 13th year of Zhenguan, his posthumous title was Yi.

How about it, isn't it awesome?

But there are even more awesome ones.

Wang Gui and Emperor Taizong were in-laws, and Emperor Taizong's third daughter, Princess Nanping, was Wang Gui's daughter-in-law.

After Princess Nanping married into the Wang family, Wang Gui insisted on the Nanping office to kneel down and bow down to his husband and his wife. You should know that since the Five Barbarians invaded China, the rituals and music have collapsed. Although the Li Tang royal family was named as the Li clan of the Longxi family of the Five Surnames and Seven Family, the blood of the Hu people actually flowed in their bodies. Li Shimin always wanted to restore the rituals and music, but he was unable to find a suitable candidate. Wang Gui's persistence made him see the long-lost rituals and laws, and was very happy. Not only did he not blame Wang Gui, but he praised Wang Gui very much. It was then that when the daughters of the Li Tang royal family got married, they had to bow down to their parents-in-laws, and gradually evolved into a custom.

Wang Jingzhi is the husband of Princess Nanping and Wang Gui's youngest son.

However, Wang Jingzhi was very unlucky.

His father Wang Gui died of illness in the 13th year of Zhenguan. In the 17th year of Zhenguan, he was implicated in the rebellion of Prince Li Chengqian. Not only was he exiled to Lingnan, but his marriage to Princess Nanping was also interrupted. Before Emperor Taizong passed away, because he was thinking about Wang Gui's contribution and Wang Jingzhi was indeed innocent before, he issued an order to pardon Wang Jingzhi and let him return to Chang'an.

After Wang Jingzhi returned to Chang'an, he restored his title, namely, Nancheng County Male.

But that's all.

When Pei Xingjian was examining the Ming Dynasty, Wang Jingzhi was still in Lingnan.

After he became the magistrate of Chang'an County, he had no contact with Wang Jingzhi.

"Go and tell the person that the county is busy with official business. Thank you for the man in Nancheng County. Let's talk about the matter of going through the government a little later."

"Here!"

Wang Sheng turned around and walked out.

"Slow down!"

Just as he was about to go out, Pei Xingjian suddenly called him again.

Since returning to Beijing, Wang Jingzhi has lived in seclusion, never contacted others, and rarely invited anyone to visit his mansion.

Why did I suddenly invite myself to visit the mansion?

"Have you asked clearly what's wrong with me asking me to go to the mansion?"

"Oh, it is said that the man in Nancheng County is preparing to marry a bride, so he asked the husband to go and drink."

wrong!

It is not surprising that Wang Jingzhi married a bride.

After all, he had divorced Princess Nanping, and Princess Nanping later married Liu Xuanyi and died of illness at the beginning of the year.

Emperor Li Zhi was a kind person.

Princess Nanping is his sister, so when Princess Nanping was alive, Wang Jingzhi certainly could not get married.

But now, Princess Nanping is dead. I guess there is also a entrusted Princess Nanping before her death. After all, the couple had a very harmonious relationship before the divorce. Moreover, Wang Jingzhi was the son of Wang Gui, and being single is not a good thing after all.

So, Li Zhi allowed Wang Jingzhi to remarry.

I have nothing to do with Wang Jingzhi. It has nothing to do with him to marry a bride.

He was the son of Wang Gui, and he was finally polite. It was a rude act that he suddenly invited me to pass by the mansion, and he should be very clear about it.

So, he still wants to send someone to invite me?

A thought suddenly flashed through Pei Xingjian's mind.

He said to Wang Sheng: "It is indeed a good thing to marry a new man, and I cannot help but congratulate him.

Put down the invitation and tell the visitor, and say I will go on time. By the way, if you go buy some gifts, I will never go there empty-handedly."

"The villain understands."

After Wang Sheng finished speaking, he bowed and left.

Pei Xingjian looked at Wang Sheng's departure back and suddenly frowned.

A very strange feeling surged in my heart.

He didn't know where the strange feeling came from, and he just looked at Wang Sheng's back and felt very uncomfortable.
