Chen Liangfu didn't know how long he waited. When he heard the door creaking open again, he almost instinctively opened his eyes.
It's a pity that the face in front of him is not the face of the layman Yuzhen, who can conquer mountains and rivers and overwhelm the whole country.
"Principal Yuzhen said she doesn't want to see you. Prime Minister Zuo, please go back."
After that, the middle-aged maid closed the door heavily.
Chen Liangfu did not sigh, but shook his head with a self-deprecating smile.
After all these years, can she still not let go?
The tide of memories surged wildly, bringing Chen Liangfu back to that night many years ago.
Lantern Festival, Chang'an Lantern Festival.
The streets and alleys were crowded with people watching lanterns. It was at that time that Chen Liangfu met layman Yuzhen for the first time.
At that time, she was not a layman named Yuzhen.
Chen Liangfu had never seen such a beautiful woman before. She really had a flawless face, as if carved from pink and jade.
Chen Liangfu was also a proud young talent at that time, and he immediately began to pursue the layman Yuzhen.
Everything was so wonderful at the beginning, and that period was also the happiest time for Chen Liangfu.
pity…
Things went counterproductive.
Chen Liangfu turned around and left, fearing that he would never be able to take this step again.
…
…
Just when everyone was getting ready to go to Zheng Jie's house to celebrate his birthday, Zheng Jie suddenly announced that this year's birthday banquet would not be held.
One stone stirs up a thousand waves.
Everyone can't understand why a wonderful birthday banquet can't be held at all?
Is Zheng Jie making fun of himself or making fun of everyone else?
Zhao Xun was also puzzled.
Zheng Jie's birthday celebration is an annual ritual that has not stopped for so many years.
Now the sudden announcement of interruption is really easy to make people suspicious.
Moreover, Zheng Jie's birthday banquet is a very important political and social occasion, so many things cannot be advanced.
Of course, this includes the secret investigation of Zheng Jie.
So you have to change the direction.
Although Zhao Xun wanted to spit out the fragrance, he still held back.
He had to find Jia Xingwen again and analyze together with Wangcai what to do next.
"Has anything unusual happened recently?"
“Does Left Prime Minister Chen Liangfu’s trip to Zhongnan Mountain count?”
Ever since Zhao Xun listed Chen Liangfu and Zheng Jie as key suspects, Jia Xingwen has been secretly observing their every move.
Fortunately for Zheng Jie, apart from being on duty in the palace, he basically stayed in the mansion.
Apart from the sudden announcement of the cancellation of the birthday banquet, there was nothing suspicious about it.
But this Chen Liangfu actually left the city for a trip to Zhongnan Mountain.
You must know that officials of Chen Liangfu's level will pay great attention to everything they say and do, for fear of being caught and criticized.
Therefore, their scope of activities is basically limited to Chang'an, or even the Imperial City.
To be precise, Chen Liangfu has not left Chang'an City for nearly a year.
The main reason is that Chang'an City has all kinds of entertainment facilities.
For drinking and listening to music, you can go to Pingkangfang Jiaofangsi, for climbing mountains, you can go to Leyouyuan, and for lake tours, you can go to Qujiangchi.
As long as Chen Liangfu didn't want to leave the city, he could stay there for several years.
But at this tense time, Chen Liangfu, who had not left the city for nearly a year, suddenly went to Zhongnan Mountain.
This is indeed abnormal.
"What did he do in Zhongnan Mountain?"
Zhao Xun asked doubtfully.
"I don't know. My informant only saw him going to Zhongnan Mountain, but he didn't dare to follow him too close for fear of being discovered."
Jia Xingwen explained helplessly.
Zhao Xun nodded slightly.
A big boss like Chen Liangfu must have many experts protecting him.
Even if they are bad people, it is best not to mess with them easily.
Once their identities are exposed, God knows whether these big guys will be ruthless enough to kill and silence them.
"At first, I thought it would be easier to investigate Mr. Zheng. But I don't know whether Mr. Zheng did it intentionally or not, but he even canceled the birthday banquet."
Zhao Xun shook his head and said: "If we continue to investigate at this time, the traces are too heavy, and we may be discovered. At the moment, it seems that it may be a good choice to investigate Chen Liangfu instead."
Of course, Zheng Jie did not get rid of the suspicion because of this. Zhao Xun still asked Jia Xingwen to send informants to keep an eye on him and report any abnormalities immediately.
"It seems we have to go to Zhongnan Mountain."
Zhao Xun felt that Chen Liangfu's suspicion was not small when he contacted the case file library for a mysterious fire after he checked the files of Chen Liangfu and Wang Zhongyi.
Zhao Xun turned to Jia Xingwen and said: "I heard that there is a kind of spirit dog in the Bad Man's Yamen, which is a breed developed in cooperation with Qin Tianjian. As long as this kind of spirit dog smells the scent of the target, it can find it along the way. I wonder if we can
Take one and go to handle the case."
Jia Xingwen hesitated and said: "Of course there is such a spirit dog, but if you want to use it, you must get Master Feng's warrant..."
"This is simple, I'll do it."
Zhao Xun patted his chest and promised.
When it comes to fooling him, Zhao Mingyun is the best among people.
…
…
"You want to get a spirit dog?"
When Feng Hao learned about Zhao Xun's purpose, he was completely surprised.
"Why do you need a spirit dog?"
Zhao Xun had already prepared a plan and told Feng Hao one by one about the suspicious actions of left prime minister Chen Liangfu in going to Zhongnan Mountain.
After hearing this, Feng Hao only said two words: "That's it?"
"You wouldn't want to trace the whereabouts of the left prime minister just based on this, right? Zhao Mingyun, are you a little distracted?"
There was no one else in the room, so Feng Hao spoke very directly.
He admitted that Zhao Xun had handled the case very well recently and was highly appreciated by His Majesty. But the problem was that he should not be too arrogant because of it.
The reason why Feng Hao previously agreed to Zhao Xun's investigation of Zheng Jie in the name of celebrating his birthday was because it was somewhat concealed and would not be too exposed.
Whether Zheng Jie noticed it or did it unintentionally, the birthday banquet was cancelled, so Zhao Xun should calm down and think about it in the long run.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Xun immediately proposed an alternative plan and went to track down Left Prime Minister Chen Liangfu.
This operation was so exciting that Feng Hao felt that he couldn't keep up with the rhythm.
Zhao Xun was speechless.
His immediate boss was good at everything, but he was too cautious.
It's impossible for a bad person to have the words "I am a bad person" written on his head, right?
If a bad person wants to investigate a case, doesn't he rely on peeling off the cocoon to pick out the gold?
If all the clues are obvious, then why do you need bad guys? Any county police officer can solve the case.
But he couldn't say these words to Feng Hao.
One level at the official level is overwhelming, let alone so many levels behind.
No matter how good his physique is, he will be crushed into a pulp.
"Master Feng, I feel that there is something fishy about the Left Prime Minister, so I plan to follow the clues to see if it is really what I inferred. I can guarantee that I will not alert the Left Prime Minister without any conclusive evidence, and I also ask Master Feng to make it happen.
"
This Zhao Xun is really a gangster!
Feng Hao wanted to say something more, but the words came to his lips and he swallowed them.
"That's all, I will assign you a spirit dog. Remember to be careful."
