Chapter 565: Accumulated experience! Possessed wisdom!

Shen Lian followed Bai Yanguan into the study. He closed the door to block the biting cold wind outside.

After taking a sip of tea, he put down the cup, looked at Shen Lian, and asked, "Is everything going well on the front line?"

Shen Lian said with a smile: "I am relieved to be back. Does Mr. Bai think there will be any accidents?"

Bai Yanguan thought for a while, then nodded with a smile: "That's right, Mr. Shen is very smart. If the battle situation is dangerous, you will not be able to come back with peace of mind."

"So, Master Shen has finished all the things he wanted to do in Nanzhao?"

Bai Yanguan knew that Shen Lian followed the alliance army to Nanzhao for some special things.

Shen Lian nodded slightly and said, "It's done."

"In Nanzhao, I found out a lot of Beidou Society's secrets. I also had a duel with Beichen in Nanzhao and destroyed an important stronghold of Beidou Society in Nanzhao. So, the result is quite satisfactory."

Official Bai Yan knew that these things were considered secrets.

So he didn't ask in detail, so as not to embarrass Shen Lian.

He nodded and said: "It's good if it's successful. It would be better if you can come back safely from this trip."

Shen Lian gently rubbed the teacup with his fingers and said, "I returned safely, but Master Bai is not too well."

Bai Yanguan's hands paused slightly, he held the tea cup and said, "I was impulsive."

Shen Lian glanced at Bai Yanguan and said directly: "Master Bai, I have investigated your case clearly."

Bai Yanguan's whole body trembled, and he seemed a little afraid to hear the final result.

Then, he saw Bai Yanguan looking at him and saying word by word: "You are unjust, Zhou Qin, you were not the one to kill."

"You were framed!"

Brush it up!

At this moment, Shen Lian clearly saw that Bai Yanguan's dark and turbid eyes suddenly burst out with a light called innocence.

Then, this old man who had been responsible for justice in the world for decades suddenly burst into tears.

At this moment, Shen Lian had indescribable complex feelings in his heart.

He didn't know whether he should be happy for Bai Yanguan or sad.

An old man, an old man who had never shed a tear in his whole life, was now in tears because of the word "innocent".

Bai Yanguan is the person who fights against Mr. Li.

In the Tang Dynasty, people, even civil servants, had to carry swords on the battlefield.

Therefore, Bai Yanguan also went to the battlefield.

He was also seriously injured.

But even though he suffered the pain of almost dying, he never shed a single tear.

And now... Bai Yanguan, who has lived for most of his life and has experienced all kinds of painful experiences and has wisdom in life, is bursting into tears at this moment.

This really made Shen Lian feel very uncomfortable.

Shen Lian looked at Bai Yanguan. At this moment, he seemed to understand the meaning of the truth more and more.

Peel away the cocoon and find the truth.

Clear the wronged person, bring justice to the dead, and send the criminal to prison.

This is the true meaning of the existence of Dali Temple!

Bai Yanguan took out his handkerchief and gently wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes. Seeing Shen Lian looking at him, he smiled and shook his head and said: "As people get older, somehow their hearts become softer. Just now Accidentally, I made a joke out of you."

Shen Lian smiled and said, "It's Mr. Bai who has been wronged."

Bai Yanguan shook his head and said: "I am not wronged because I really feel that I killed someone."

He thought about it and was about to ask something, but fell silent again and said, "Although I really want to know the truth, I understand the rules."

"As a participant in the case, I should not ask too many questions before the trial. That is against the rules."

Shen Lian said: "I don't care about that. Lord Bai wants to know. I can tell Lord Bai in detail."

Bai Yanguan shook his head and said: "You are already the Minister of Dali Temple, and Dali Temple, as the final judge of the Tang Dynasty's prison cases, must have firm principles."

"I don't want you to break the rules because of me."

"Besides, knowing that I was wrongly accused and that I am not the murderer can already put my mind at ease."

"It's just a matter of waiting a few more days to find out the truth. I can afford to wait."

Shen Lian knew Bai Yanguan's temperament.

Bai Yanguan has the kind of temperament that once he makes a decision, eight horses can't pull him back.

When Shen Lian saw this, he said nothing more.

Since Bai Yanguan is willing to wait, he has no choice but to stick to the so-called rules.

Bai Yanguan untied the knot in his heart, and his whole face became much rosier.

There are also more smiles on his face.

I saw him pick up the tea cup and take another sip of hot water, and his whole body felt even warmer.

He looked at Shen Lian and asked, "When did you come back?"

Shen Lian said: "It's been a few days."

"You came back specifically for my case?" Bai Yanguan asked again.

Shen Lian smiled and said: "The matter in Nanzhao has been resolved. I was planning to come back. But I heard about Master Bai's case in Yangzhou City, so I rushed back quickly. This did not delay my business. Bai Don't worry, adults."

Bai Yanguan was relieved when he heard that Shen Lian was not really delayed.

What he dislikes the most in his life is causing trouble to other people, even Shen Lian, he doesn't want to cause trouble to Shen Lian.

Bai Yanguan said: "Will the trip to Nanzhao go smoothly?"

"It went smoothly. Although there were some twists and turns in the process, everything that should be done was done."

Bai Yanguan nodded and said: "I've done everything I wanted to do, so that's good. Nothing in life goes smoothly. As long as the result is good, that's good."

He saw Shen Lian looking at him, and based on his understanding of Qin Wenyuan, he knew that Shen Lian must have something to ask.

He smiled and said, "Just ask whatever you want. I will tell you everything I know."

Shen Lian chuckled and said, "Master Bai is really powerful, he knows everything."

Bai Yanguan rolled his eyes: "Is this how the words are used?"

Shen Lian smiled and then said: "Master Bai, were you working on an old case before the incident occurred?"

Bai Yanguan looked at Shen Lian in surprise and said, "How do you know?"

Shen Lian smiled and said, "Of course it's an inference."

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Bai Yanguan's heart moved.

He knew that Shen Lian would never do such meaningless things unless necessary.

Therefore, since Shen Lian asked, it can only explain one thing...

His eyes flickered and he looked directly at Shen Lian and asked: "Is my case related to that old case?"

Shen Lian nodded directly, without hiding anything from Bai Yanguan, and said: "It's related."

Just these two words are enough for Bai Yanguan to think about many things.

Bai Yanguan worked as a minister in Dali Temple for many years, and later became a minister in the Ministry of Punishment. It can be said that no one has seen more weird things in this world.

He has seen too many conspiracies and cases caused by various reasons.

Therefore, he knows far better than ordinary people what causes some people to take risks.

What was originally puzzling was immediately awakened by Shen Lian's words at this moment.

He said: "So that's how it is. I'll tell you why it's such a coincidence."

"It turns out that I was really plotted."

Shen Lian looked at Bai Yanguan and asked, "Did Mr. Bai make any new discoveries about the case back then?"

Bai Yanguan let out a breath.

There was a trace of memory in his eyes, and he said: "That was a case ten years ago."

"When that case happened, I was still the Minister of Dali Temple."

"The loss of military pay almost caused a mutiny in the army. Fortunately, His Majesty scraped together things and the Ministry of Household Affairs was frugal, so it was difficult to come up with the same money to make up for the shortfall of the soldiers."

"Otherwise, Datang will be really in danger at that time."

"You must know that not long after the founding of the Tang Dynasty, internal and external troubles were very serious. Any mutiny in the army would definitely cause huge changes."

"At that time, once external enemies come and some Xiaoxiao rebel internally, the Tang Dynasty will definitely be in danger!"

"Therefore, Your Majesty is extremely angry. In His Majesty's opinion, this is simply a crime of treason."

"So His Majesty appointed me to investigate the case with full authority."

Bai Yanguan took a sip of tea as he spoke.

He sighed and said, "But, I have betrayed His Majesty's trust."

"In the end, I only found Zhao He, and then with Zhao He's death, the case fell into a deadlock."

"All clues seemed to be interrupted in an instant."

"As a result, I couldn't find any other clues, and this case became an unsolved case."

"Fortunately, Your Majesty understands. Your Majesty understands that it's not that I didn't care, but that once Zhao He died, all the clues were lost, and it was really difficult to investigate. Therefore, Your Majesty did not blame me."

"But this case, in my heart, has always been a hurdle to get out of."

"I have solved countless cases in my life, but in the end I let His Majesty, who trusts me the most, be so disappointed. This is an unforgivable thing for me."

"Therefore, in the past ten years, I have actually been thinking about whether there is a chance to re-investigate this case, and the result..."

He paused, raised his eyes to look at Shen Lian, and said, "I really thought of it."

"What?" Shen Lian asked.

Bai Yanguan said: "Where do those military salaries go?"

"place?"

Shen Lian narrowed his eyes.

Bai Yanguan said: "That army's salary is worth hundreds of thousands of copper coins. This is not a small amount. Even if they are piled together, it is a small mountain."

"But those military salaries were in Chang'an City at that time, and they suddenly disappeared out of thin air."

"So, where can all this military pay go?"

Bai Yanguan looked at Shen Lian and said: "The people guarding the city gate at that time were all His Majesty's confidants, so we can be sure that military pay was never secretly transported out of Chang'an, and even in the past ten years, it has not been transported out of Chang'an, because Although His Majesty did not say it, he has always remembered that once a vehicle leaves Chang'an, it must be strictly inspected."

"That's why those military salaries are still staying in Chang'an City to this day!"

"Back then, when His Majesty was furious, he sent people to search from house to house, checking almost every place where things could be hidden."

"But still found nothing."

"so……"

Bai Yanguan said: "Where are these military pay, enough to pile up a mountain of military pay, to be able to escape such a search!"

"And more importantly, why haven't you used it in ten years?"

Shen Lian's heart moved and he said: "Those military pay, although there is no chance to transport it out of Chang'an, can actually be used, but no one has been found to have used it in these years?"

Bai Yanguan nodded and said: "Yes, in fact, in these years, Dali Temple and His Majesty's Shadow Guards have been paying attention everywhere. The copper coins used as military pay have special marks on them. This is also to prevent anyone from deducting military pay. used, so the same goes for that batch of military pay. As long as someone has used it, it will be discovered sooner or later."

"But so far, those military salaries have not been used once. Don't you think this is too strange?"

Shen Lian gently stroked the tea cup with his fingers, his eyes twinkling.

After pondering for a moment, Shen Lian suddenly laughed and said: "It's really strange. Although there are people guarding the city gate, they were able to transport Zhao He and some copper coins back then. It's not difficult at all. It's a big deal to find some people. Everyone can take less and transport it away.”

"But as a result, there was no circulation on the market."

"That can only mean one thing. Those military salaries are of no use to them."

"Why doesn't it work? I think it's definitely not their conscience and they don't want to use it."

"But..."

His eyes flashed and he said: "They can't use it, or in other words, those military salaries haven't even reached their hands yet, they are still hiding them somewhere!"

Bai Yanguan also nodded slightly after hearing Shen Lian's analysis.

He said: "I think so too."

"At first, I couldn't figure out why they haven't spent the military pay even after ten years. Although there are special patterns on the military pay, ordinary people can't recognize it."

"So as long as they spend money, it's actually very difficult to find them."

"But they still haven't spent the military pay, which made me very confused."

"And just a few days ago, I suddenly thought of a possibility."

Bai Yanguan looked at Shen Lian and said, "It's not necessarily that they don't want to use the military pay, but that they can't use it!"

"After thinking about this possibility, my eyes suddenly became clear, and many doubts were immediately solved!"

Bai Yanguan said: "Why can't they use these military salaries? As you just said, even if we guard the gate of Chang'an City very tightly, they can still transport it out as long as they transport it in batches, so they don't exist There is no possibility of transporting money out!”

"Then, since they can't use it, there is only one possibility, and that is that those military salaries, as you said, may not be in their hands!"

"But if the money is not in their hands, where will it be?"

At this moment, Bai Yanguan's old eyes shone with wisdom.

This is the wisdom he has accumulated from his experiences.
