A scholar of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty

"I see." Li Er nodded thoughtfully.

"That's good." Gu Qing said with a smile.

"I still have a question." Li Er said again, "If it will explode like this, will ordinary people's homes also be in this danger."

"Actually, it's not the case. Just remember to open the windows when cooking. Most people cook with the windows open, and the dusty environment is rare, unless it's a dusty house that hasn't been cleaned for a long time. For ordinary people, this will not happen.”

"We still have to be careful." Li Er nodded solemnly.

Back in his mansion, Li Er listened to Li Junxian's report and said, "So Chengqian intends to take Gu Qing down."

"Back to the Supreme Emperor." Li Junxian said, "In the court, many ministers were criticizing Gu Qing, but His Majesty didn't say anything, but let Di Renjie tell the situation of this case. There is not much evidence for Kunai. If With conclusive evidence, this is the best time for Your Majesty to take down Gu Qing."

"I understand." Li Er nodded, "You follow me to do something!"

"Yes!" Li Junxian replied with a salute.

"Wang Qin!" Li Er ordered Wang Qin again, "Bring a bag of noodles."

With Li Junxian and Wang Qin, Li Er did several experiments, and two of them were successful. It seems that it is really not a mystery, there is really such a thing as a dust explosion.

"Your Majesty, why did this happen?" Li Junxian asked puzzled.

"It seems that Gu Qing didn't lie to me." Li Er looked serious.

Powder will explode?Wang Qin was really frightened, how many people are living in danger according to this, it is wrong to look carefully, if it really blows up the people in the Central Plains, wouldn't they all die?He looked at Li Er in puzzlement.

Li Er nodded and said to Wang Qin, "If this matter is known to too many people, it will definitely cause panic, pass on my words to Chengqian, don't investigate this case, let me stop everything! That's all."

"Old slave understands." Knowing what Li Er meant, Wang Qin hurriedly left to go to work.

Chapter 744 Helpless

Tai Chi Palace is still arguing about the cause of this incident. Facing Chaozhong and Li Chengqian, Di Renjie couldn't explain clearly for a while, so he had to reply with a sentence of still investigating. He also wanted to go back to Dali Temple to find out the case. Tai Chi Palace has been most of the day.

The case this time is indeed very strange, and Chu Suiliang also doubts Gu Qing, but after thinking about it carefully, he thinks it is necessary for Gu Qing to do this?

Li Chengqian looked at the crowd in the court hall, and his mind was heavy. This is indeed the best chance to win Gu Qing. The opportunity is right in front of his eyes. Whether Gu Qing did it or not, this matter has nothing to do with Gu Qing. Looking at it With the opportunity in front of him, seeing the courtiers scolding Gu Qing, he found that he didn't have the courage to arrest Gu Qing. Even if Gu Qing was in the village and not in the court, Li Chengqian could feel that Gu Qing was overwhelming him.

It's not so easy to catch Gu Qing, Gu Qing's position in the court is so great that I can't stop him, and I don't have evidence yet, even if I have evidence, there are too many things I need to do to take Gu Qing down. The morning classes are almost all set up by Gu Qing.

"Retire!" Li Chengqian interrupted everyone's discussion, "Chu Suiliang, Xu Jingzong, Shangguanyi came to Ganlu Hall to discuss matters!"

Leaving Taiji Palace, Li Chengqian was going to Ganlu Palace and found that Wang Qin was waiting for him here at some point, "Why are you here?"

"Your Majesty has something to ask the old slave to bring." Wang Qin said to Li Chengqian, "This time, the case is closed and there is no need to investigate it, and it has nothing to do with Gu Qing. It can be handed over to Dali Temple. Your Majesty will do your own thing." It’s good to do what needs to be done.”

"It has nothing to do with Gu Qing?" Li Chengqian was puzzled.

"Indeed, it has nothing to do with Gu Qing." Wang Qin said with a smile, "This old slave is leaving now."

Watching Wang Qin leave, Li Chengqian went back to Ganlu Hall and sat down weakly. It turned out that everything had nothing to do with Gu Qing. I don’t know why Li Chengqian suddenly felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief. If Gu Qing really did this, what should he do?Sometimes I dare not look up, for fear that when I look up, I will find that the person in front of me is much taller than myself.

Besides, how to capture Gu Qing?Gu Qing's relationship in the court is too huge, from the old general of the state to the current three provinces, six departments, nine temples and twelve guards in the court, there are Gu Qing's people, even the most important general in the court Su Dingfang is Gu Qing Desperate brother, Li Chengqian smiled wryly, why should he fight Gu Qing? At least he is no match for Gu Qing now. The conversation with Changsun Wuji that day is still clearly remembered. He will leave the court eventually, and the Gu family will never be an official in the court.

But when this opportunity will come, I don't know at all, ten years or twenty years?

Discussions came from outside the hall, Xu Jingzong, Chu Suiliang, and Shangguanyi had already arrived outside the hall.

"Come in." Li Chengqian said wearily.

The three entered the Ganlu Hall to salute, and Chu Suiliang said to Li Chengqian, "Gu Qing cannot be arrested until there is no evidence. I think we should let Dali Temple check it out before making an assertion."

"This case..." Li Chengqian hesitated for a while before opening his mouth, "Let's hand over this case to Dali Temple for investigation. There is no need to discuss it again. I want to discuss with you about the autumn harvest. Here, the food from Nanzhao this year has not been too late."

"Your Majesty." Chu Suiliang Shangguanyi stepped forward and said: "Because of the monsoon, Nanzhao wanted to take the waterway. The monsoon came too late this year, and it was delayed for a while. Nanzhao meant that he still wanted to take the waterway. Now It is already on the way, and there will be news in a few days."

Li Chengqian nodded slightly, looked at Chu Suiliang and asked, "How is the dispatch of officials from the DPRK and China recently?"

Chu Suiliang: "Return to Your Majesty..."

……

When Di Renjie returned to Dali Temple, he was still at a loss. Distraught, the petty official at the side stepped forward and asked, "The family who kept the gunpowder has been seized, and they are interrogating now. Do you want to punish them?"

"No need." Di Renjie said with a frown.

"Master of Dali Temple." Another small official came to report, "Someone sent a letter."

Di Renjie took the letter with sealing wax on it and it seemed that he hadn't opened it. When he opened the letter, Di Renjie looked at the crooked words on it and knew that it was written by his teacher himself. It said the reason for the explosion. Burn the credit candle in the room of the room and go to the dungeon.

In the dark dungeon, Di Renjie looked at the family in front of him, and they faltered and couldn't speak in the face of the jailer's interrogation.

"You all step back." Di Renjie signaled the guards on the side to leave, and stood in front of these people and asked, "I'll ask you a few questions and you can leave."

"Yes." They nodded tremblingly.

After sitting down, Di Renjie asked, "Did you get up early to cook?"

"Yes." The other party replied.

"Is the window open?" Di Renjie asked again.

"No." The other party said in a low voice, and looked at Di Renjie in fear, "My lord, we really didn't hide firearms, we are ordinary people, born and bred in Chang'an, we would not do such a thing. "

"Okay, okay." Di Renjie motioned him not to panic and asked, "Is there a lot of dust in your house?"

"I didn't notice, it's always been like that at home." He said.

"Actually, our Dali Temple also found that there is no trace of any firearm explosion in your home. From the very beginning, I suspected that you and Ben did not hide any firearms." Di Renjie said, "But I can't let you go like this. There are too many discussions in the court and among the people, I need to find a reason to close the case, and I also ask a few of you to stay here for a while, and you can go back in less than three days, understand?"

Fang Fang nodded vigorously, and asked again, "My lord, old man, I have to say more. Since your lord has found out that our family has no private possession of firearms, how could our family be like this if it were not firearms."

"Don't ask too much, this is a matter of our Dali Temple, you don't need to worry about it! You just need to know that you have not hidden gunpowder and you are innocent. We will take care of other things in Dali Temple. Please stay A few days."

Di Renjie stood up and told the guards beside him, "Put them in a clean cell at the back."

"Yes!"

Di Renjie left the dungeon, and after cross-examination, it seemed that the matter was exactly as the teacher said. It should be a dust explosion. This is the truth, but if this truth is announced, it may cause panic, so I have to find another reason to close the case. Di Renjie left Dali Temple annoyed and walked out of Chang'an all the way to the village.

Chapter 745 Lu Dongzan Meets the Messenger of the Alliance

Pei Xingjian and Xue Rengui have already arrived at the Hexi Corridor, and they can go to Tubo in half a month. The Hexi Corridor has already entered autumn, and the wind in the daytime is still very dry. After nightfall, it is very cold here. Looking at the terrain here, Xue Rengui also said , "Let's set up camp here and rest, and hurry up tomorrow, it's getting late."

Pei Xingjian also nodded, "I thought that the teacher would give some instructions to preside over the meeting this time, but this time the teacher didn't say anything."

"Maybe the teacher feels relieved to leave it to you." Xue Rengui watched the soldiers bury the pot and cook, "I don't know how the situation in Tubo has changed this time. Don't fight."
