Chapter 24: Xuanduguan Murder Case (2)(1/2)

He knew Zhang Ping and Zhao Hu's shoes, but the other plate was a pair of worn black leather boots. Isn't these the shoes I planned to use for divination yesterday?

"Pei Jun, this is not my shoes!"

When Li Xiu lowered his head, his shoes were under the bed!

“My shoes are underneath!”

Pei Kuan was also stunned. He winked at his subordinates, and the yamen runner lay down under the bed and took out his shoes.

Li Xiu put on his shoes and walked a few steps. This is my shoes. I don’t know who threw those shoes here. They were torn and old, and they didn’t fit. How could I wear them?

Everyone tried it out and it turned out that it was not Li Xiu's shoes.

Pei Kuan quickly bowed and saluted, "It seems that someone falsely accused Your Highness of the Highness, but he made a mistake in his busy schedule. He took the wrong shoes, but he washed his highness upset for his injustice!"

"Then my two followers should be wronged too!"

Pei Kuan was a little embarrassed, "Your Highness, Wang Qi, the minister of Dali Temple, has also been here just now. He wants to take over this case, but I did not agree. However, the case of Dali Temple has been recorded. I can only prove that Your Highness was framed, but there are footprints of the two of them on the scene, so I can't explain it to Dali Temple."

Li Xiu immediately said anxiously: "Pei Jun, we went to a room last night, and then Zhong Mixiang fainted. We have been together all the time. Since I was framed, they were of course framed, so Is there any explanation for this?"

"That's not what the apprentice of Zhenren Long Yang said. They said they were finding you along the bloodstains!"

At this time, someone came up to whisper to Pei Kuan. Pei Kuan apologized: "The Dali Temple Minister is here again, I'll go and tell him something."

He turned around and went out.

Through the window, Li Xiu vaguely saw Pei Kuan quarrel fiercely with an official.

Soon, Pei Kuan rushed back angrily and cursed: "What a bastard!"

"What do you say about Pei Jun?"

"The Dali Temple Minister Wang Qi ran to ask the Regent for instructions. The Regent said that the prince violated the law and was guilty of the same crime as the common people. Wang Qi came back to arrest His Highness. I told you about someone who framed you. He said that His Highness was deliberately wearing those pairs of broken shoes to commit crimes."

Li Xiu has completely calmed down, and this matter must have nothing to do with the Regent.

"Then what?"

"Then I said, the highness can't walk after putting on those shoes. The bastard said, the shoes may be worn by another friend of yours. Although you are not on the scene, you are directing them to kill people behind the scenes."

"So he must take me away?"

Pei Kuan sighed, "He has the regent's order, so I can only report to the emperor, otherwise I can't fight against the regent!"

At this moment, Dali Temple Minister Wang Qi walked in quickly and took a deep look at Li Xiu.

"I just received the order from the Regent again. Although His Highness is suspicious, he is willing to guarantee His Highness that His Highness can not be arrested. This case will be handed over to Jingzhao Mansion and Dali Temple will no longer be asked about it."

After saying that, he hurriedly left with a group of head-in-chiefs from Dali Temple.

Pei Kuan was confused, but Li Xiu sighed and said, "What does it mean to turn your hands into clouds and turn your hands into rain? I have seen it today. I was obviously framed by him, but in the end I still owe him a huge favor!"

………………

Pei Kuan took a large group of yamen runners and constables and left. Li Xiu walked out of Xuandu Temple alone. His eyes turned and saw a man in green standing at the gate.

As soon as you get closer, you can see that the man in blue is wearing a human skin mask.

"You are waiting for me!"

The man in green said lightly: "The Regent is just to teach you a lesson. The Regent said, although you are a little brave, you are still too young. I hope you can take care of yourself!"

"Where is my maid?"

"She is safe. As long as you stop meddling in other people's business, your men will come back!"

The man in green turned around and left.

Li Xiu slowly clenched his fists.

‘Hey!’

The space appeared, and his balance was only 300 guan. The wallet was upgraded. It was originally a pickle jar, but now it has become a pickle jar.

The first space is empty, indicating that the reward has been released.

Li Xiu was a little confused. His wallet was upgraded overnight. What's going on?

There are rewards that have been issued, where is the reward?

………

The square outside Xuandu Palace was empty, with fine raindrops under the sky.

Li Xiu sat alone on the stone bench. The weather in early spring was very cold. He sniffed and rubbed his hands.

Usually, they think that the little eyebrows are too wide and that Zhang Ping and Zhao Hu are unreliable, but those who are arrested and those who are missing are missing. Li Xiu felt an indescribable worry and loneliness in his heart.

Zhang Ping and Zhao Hu are not able to control themselves, but Xiao Mei has to find her.

Thinking about what happened last night, a hint of bitterness appeared on the corner of Li Xiu's mouth.

Li Chengqi said nothing wrong. He is indeed too young and has no experience.

If you don’t understand any situation, you will break in.

Back to what happened last night.

He felt as if there was a giant in the air, watching his every move, and gently tweak them, they fell into a trap.

This giant is Li Chengqi, and the whole situation is under his control.

The father wanted to use three treasures to defeat the Niu Xiantong, but it was obviously discovered by Li Chengqi.

But the father seemed to be confused.

Li Xiu had to admire Li Chengqi's skillful methods. If it weren't for his appearance, I'm afraid that the father would have completely lost during the gambling battle.

But why did he let himself go? Is it true that he is just teaching himself a lesson? Or is he warning himself not to tell his father about this?

Li Xiu knows Li Chengqi very well. Li Chengqi is cruel and will never let him go easily. He should be afraid that he would alert him if he catches him, so he let him go for the time being.

Li Xiu is most worried about Xiaomei's safety now. Where should I find her?

"Go and worship the God of Wealth! I believe the God of Wealth will give us some advice." The whole family walked quickly past Li Xiu and walked towards Xuandu Temple.

Li Xiu looked back at the back of the family and looked at the magnificent main hall of Xuandu Temple. Will it give it a guide?

………………

Li Xiu knelt down in front of the statue of the Star Lord of Wealth, folded his hands and prayed, "I beg the God of Wealth to give my disciple a clear way. If I can save Xiaomei, I will definitely add a hundred scoops of fragrant oil to the God of Wealth!"

Li Xiu bowed three times, and as soon as he got up, he felt someone patting him on the shoulder from behind.

When he turned around, it turned out to be a Taoist priest. He handed Li Xiu a note, "Someone will give you a note."

"Who gave it?"

"It's a young man, he's gone."

Li Xiu opened the note and there was only a line of words on it, "Xingshan Temple Heavenly King Hall."

………….

Xingshan Temple and Xuandu Temple are far away, in Jingshanfang on the east side of Zhuque Street.

Xingshan Temple looks much quieter than Xuanduguan, and there is no such thing as the Taoist in the city who is obsessed with money as Longyang Zhenren.

Li Xiu walked into the temple gate, walked around the Main Hall, and came to the Heavenly King Hall behind. It was deserted, with only a few monks and no other pilgrims were seen.

"Meow!"

A fat raccoon cat jumped off the wall next to it and stretched long.

This raccoon cat—

Li Xiu suddenly recognized this fat cat. Isn’t it the cat demon in Gao Lishi’s mansion?

The fat raccoon seemed to know Li Xiu, and walked up to him and rubbed him.

"It's really you little guy!"

Li Xiu touched the head of the raccoon cat, and he also liked the fat cat very much.

"It's a trained cat, and it knows where your companion was sent?"

When Li Xiu turned around, he saw a tall young man standing behind him, wearing a bamboo hat, a black and white warrior uniform, and a long sword in his hand.

He was 1.85 meters tall, his waist was as straight as a pine tree, and half of the face exposed under the hat was as crystal clear as jade. He slowly raised his head, his nose bridge was high, his eyebrows were like swords, and his eyes were like cold stars.

One word is ‘cool’, two words are ‘cool’, and three words are ‘cool’, so handsome!’

A faint smile appeared on his lips, "Someone is following you, I knocked him out!"

The man stepped forward and knelt down in front of Li Xiu, which scared Li Xiu.

"You are…..."

"Thank you for your life-saving grace!"

Li Xiu thought, "You are the brother of that little lady?"

The young man nodded, "Pei Min in Jinzhou, if he hadn't been to the young master's rescue, he would have died unjustly in prison."
