Dali Temple.


    "What? Is this the case closed? ” Li Er was startled.


    Sima Yi nodded slightly.


    “Uh, what is that...” Li Er suspected that there was something wrong with his ears for a while, “Dali Qing, is this the case? 』


    ?Li Er''s heart was beating wildly. At this moment, he was just worried that the hussar was chasing closely, and suggested that Sima Yi could use the little thief to hit him first, at least to prove that he was doing something and not just a freeloader. Unexpectedly, Sima Yi directly said that he wanted to close the case, and he suddenly changed his mind. His expression changed.


    "Dali Qing..." Li Er said cautiously, "Is it a bit... um, I mean, is it a bit hasty to close the case so quickly?" 』


    “It’s okay…” Sima Yi still smiled and said calmly, “The case is closed. Could you please send someone to send the body and everything to the Yizhuang outside the city... In addition, a certain person will have the Dali Temple issue a notice saying that the thief is seeking wealth and killing, and will be imprisoned in the Dali Temple until the autumn. 』


    "This..." Li Er was stunned for a moment. Is Sima Yi really going to do this? Didn''t Sima Yi already say before that he was not that money-greedy guy? Why are you saying it''s him now? What causes this? Anyone heard about it?


    Sima Yi glanced at Li Er and said, "If Captain Li doesn''t want to do it, I can let others go." 』


    ?Li Er immediately reacted, "I don''t dare, I don''t dare. I''ll do it now." 』


    ?However, as the leader of the inspection team, Li Er obviously did not have the authority to question the minister of Dali Temple, so he could only respond in confusion, then retreated and acted according to Sima Yi''s instructions.


    Of course, the innkeeper was so happy that he almost flew up on the spot, and hurriedly tried to give Li Er a red envelope, but Li Er refused.


    ??Li Er had a cold face and didn''t say much nonsense. He did as Sima Yi asked. Then he thought about it all the way and always felt something was wrong, so he called in his subordinates halfway and gave some instructions.


    ?Li Er''s men nodded, turned the corner of the street, and went straight to Chang''an Youwen Division.


    …(дIII)…


    You Wensi.


    After hearing Ma Gang''s reply, Kan Ze''s eyes moved slightly, "Is this what the Minister of Dali Temple said?" Nothing more to say? 』


    Ma Gang lowered his head and replied, "No, that''s all." 』


    ‘Well…’ Kan Ze nodded, ‘Okay, I understand. You... still follow the previous arrangement and explain it first..." Kan Ze obviously didn''t want to explain anything to Ma Gang immediately. He asked Ma Gang to go ahead and come back later.


    Ma Gang was confused, but he could only respond and retreat.


    ??Kan Ze lowered his head and continued to comment on the documents on the desk. After he finished writing, he put down his pen and said, "Come here, call Li Congcao." 』


    ?? Kan Ze probably guessed what Sima Yi meant.


    『Report! Maoling Inspection Team Li sent people here to see the director and report something important. 』


    Li Congcao had not yet arrived, but Li Er''s men arrived first.


    ?Kan Ze thought for a moment and nodded to let people pass in.


    Not long after, Li Er''s men came forward to pay homage to Kan Ze. Then, according to Li Er''s instructions, they recounted what happened in Dali Temple before and after, and then asked Kan Ze what his instructions were on this matter...


    ??Kan Ze smiled and said, "I''ll tell you the team leader. I know about this...just do what the Minister of Dali Temple ordered. There''s no need to worry about it." 』


    Li Er''s men bowed again and left.


    You heard that Mr. Li from the Department had just walked through the corridor, then turned to look at Li Er''s men who were leaving in a hurry. He raised his eyebrows slightly and bowed down to the hall. "I have met the Director. May I ask the Director if he has any questions?" What''s the order? 』


    ??Kan Ze waved and indicated, "Sit down first." 』


    Li Cheng came in and sat down.


    ??Kan Ze lowered his head and wrote. In a short time, he wrote a briefing, then sealed it, covered it with wax, and sent it directly to the Husband''s Palace. After the messenger left, Kan Ze looked at Mr. Li for a while and said slowly: "The defense line you are responsible for is likely to have problems again..."


    ?Li Zhengyi raised his eyebrows and said, "What?" ! 』


    …(··)…


    Hushifu.


    Fei Qian frowned slightly as he looked at the summary of the case that was sent almost immediately.


    Not only did the Information Department report it, but Dali Temple also reported relevant information.


    ?Zhang Cun is a clown. He is of little value even if he is alive or dead. But the problem now is that someone is taking the opportunity to cause trouble.


    ?Originally Fei Qian thought it was Zhang Cun who was causing trouble, but it turned out that it was not the case. Zhang Cun was just being taken advantage of.


    “Either Shandong...or...” Pang Tong shook his head, “It’s better to have more Shandong. 』


    "oh? Fei Qian glanced at Pang Tongyi and said, "You mean Zhou Gongjin is too busy now?" He is just sick, it’s not like he will be gone now..."


    “Ah,” Pang Tong clapped his hands, “My lord, when you say that, I’m not sure. 』


    There is a spy in Chang''an.


    And it’s not just one or two spies.


    But the problem is that this thing is like weeds in a field. If you **** them today, they will quietly grow back in two days.


    The big man doesn’t have paraquat. Moreover, even if paraquat is available in later generations, it will not work well. Once the effect of the drug wears off, the growth will continue as usual, and there will be many side effects. In later generations, when cameras were everywhere and people had to verify their identity one by one when entering and exiting customs, spies and spies were still emerging in endlessly. What''s more, in the Han Dynasty, which did not have imaging technology and timely information inquiry, it was basically impossible to completely eliminate spies. impossible.


    As long as it is cleaned frequently, some fish may slip through the net.


    "If we say that Jiangdong is going eastward..." Pang Tongba smacked his lips and said, "Zhou Gongjin should be more concerned about Sichuan and Shu. After all, there is Jingzhou in between... But what you said, lord, actually makes some sense. After all, Things in the Western Regions seem to be bigger now. If Guanzhong is overwhelmed with the Western Regions, Jiangdong will naturally be more bold..."


    ?Fei Qian nodded slightly.


    "However, I still feel that the majority of those who care about us so much are probably Prime Minister Cao..." Pang Tong chuckled, "It''s as if we also care about him... Prime Minister Cao, I''m afraid he doesn''t even want to have a few bowls of rice for his lord." You have to know...haha..."


    Fei Qian laughed and said, "Actually, I also want to know how many bowls of rice Cao Mengde can eat now..."


    The monarch and his ministers burst into laughter.


    Lian Po is old, can he still make a living?


    After Cao Cao detected and captured some of Fei Qian''s ambushes in Shandong, he did not relax because of this. Instead, he became more cautious. He did not even stay in Xu County and Yecheng for a long time, and did not talk to anyone in advance when coming or leaving. Tell me, maybe I was still in Yecheng yesterday, and today I arrived at the military camp outside the city, and then arrived in Xu County two days later. It was quite elusive.


    In other words, it is like Cao Cao in the proverb of later generations. When Cao Cao arrives...


    At the same time, Cao Cao''s censorship of various places was also intensified. In particular, Youwensi, who followed Fei Qian''s example, established a school affairs office, or it could also be called a school affairs office. There was a governor, a left and right lieutenant, and similar to other military offices, there were chiefs, lieutenants, etc. Wait, and then recruited a lot of school officials and school officials. On the surface, it was for spying on the enemy, spying on the enemy, etc., but in fact, it also monitored and verified local officials.


    The Youwen Division here in Feiqian used to have the function of monitoring and supervising local officials, but now it has handed over this part of the official work to the Examination Division, which not only dispersed the firepower, but also reduced the local officials'' knowledge of Youwen. The hatred level of the company.


    ??And the biggest difference is that Feiqian''s Youwen Division only has the power of spying and supervision, but does not have law enforcement power, while the School Affairs Bureau does.


    ?Perhaps Cao Cao feels that centralization of power is not a problem?


    ??Of course there is another possibility that Cao Cao is not confident about delegating this authority...


    In history, people often say that Cao Cao "employs people without suspicion and does not use those who doubt", and then babbles about a lot of methods and methods used by the company to select talents. In fact, there are some discrepancies in their interpretation, and this sentence describing Cao Cao should be understood correctly. , cannot be read together, but must be viewed separately, that is, the first half of Cao Cao''s words is "do not doubt the people you employ", and the second half is "do not use the people you doubt".


    In the entrepreneurial stage, winning over people’s hearts and wooing younger brothers is the first factor.


    ?For example, in history, Liu Bei defected to Cao Cao, and everyone advised Cao Cao to take action early. Guo Jia persuaded Cao Cao to "recruit heroes by being honest and trustworthy, but he is still afraid of them." "If you harm the virtuous in the name of it, the wise men will doubt themselves and change their minds to choose their master. Who will rule the world?" 』


    Cao Cao took this seriously. As your business gets bigger, how to concentrate power on yourself and exclude dissidents becomes more important than winning over people''s hearts. In the second half of the period, Cao Cao''s suspicious side came out...


    Historically, Cao Cao killed this and that, which basically happened in the second half.


    ??Now that Cao Cao has killed Kong Rong, it is also confirmed that Cao Cao has officially entered the second half...


    "My lord..." Pang Tong stopped smiling, "Now this matter...my lord means...that Sima Zhongda should just handle it like this?" 』


    "Well..." Fei Qian pondered for a while, then smiled and said, "Does Shi Yuan have any better way?" 』


    Sima Yi has been surrounded by various cases of corrupt officials for a while, and he seems to have been frustrated for a long time. Finally, he found a fun thing to show off his activities?


    Pang Tong pinched his chin and said, "It''s okay, let him try it first..."


    Fei Qian nodded and smiled slightly, "Then let him try it first." 』


    …(＾－＾)~…


    Maoling.


    At the street entrance notice board.


    Notices of Zhang Cun’s death were quickly posted.


    Human nature is similar in that feudal dynasty. Greed and laziness are still two huge stones blocking the path forward for most people. Therefore, in Chang''an and the surrounding tombs, various vicious incidents still occur from time to time, including robbery, murder, and arson.


    But like most criminal cases in later generations, the criminal is often close to the victim and has a certain degree of social relevance. Therefore, most of the time, with the victim as the center of the circle and expanding the screening outward layer by layer, some clues can be found in most criminal cases. In addition, it is obvious that no one can learn from the criminal methods of these ordinary criminal cases in the Han Dynasty from later generations. Some methods have been learned from some criminal investigation movies and TV shows, so once the relevant suspects are found, they are often easier to detect.


    After all, there is no such thing as a big man who has no doubts about his guilt, but he has always suspected his guilt.


    There are indeed unjust, false and wrongful convictions, but they are not as numerous as imagined.


    On the contrary, strangers commit crimes, which are the most difficult to solve.


    Because the social relationship between the stranger and the victim is basically very far away, even completely out of the pursuer''s thinking range, coupled with the movement of people...


    Generally, when a major murder occurs, the area is always sealed off immediately, and then suspicious persons are searched within the area. This is considered a basic operation, but even so, it may not be able to catch the big fish, because the murderer is very likely to be caught. He ran away a long time ago.


    ?However, once the notice is posted, it means that the entire case has come to an end.


    When a person dies, he dies, and once he dies, a hundred people die, while the living still live and are busy working.


    So after the notice was posted, most people just said "Oh" and continued to work on their original matters.


    The innkeeper breathed a sigh of relief and ordered his men to tidy up the room where Zhang Cun died. However, since there were no strong detergents in the Han Dynasty, the innkeeper was reluctant to fumigate the house with expensive spices to remove the smell of blood. After adding in the death of a person, this room will also be considered a haunted house, and no one may dare to live in it. Therefore, it is equivalent to the inn owner having to endure a long period of vacancy...


    It means that the innkeeper''s interests are damaged, so the innkeeper hates the murderer more than anyone else, and also scolds Zhang Cun for bringing him trouble.


    There was no grudge between the innkeeper and Zhang Cun before, but now there is.


    『I just said, that guy is wearing bright clothes, doesn’t he invite thieves to himself? ” The innkeeper tried to prove that he was also a victim, an innocent person implicated by Zhang Cun, an idiot. However, Zhang Cun’s death in the inn was not the inn’s fault, nor his problem. “Which place in this world will be free of thieves? Wandering around in this outfit and being noticed by thieves will mean death sooner or later, right? Therefore, it is better to be more honest and responsible! Everyone should keep a close eye on their belongings. If you have any problems, call the inspector as soon as possible! 』


    Don’t reveal your wealth in vain.


    This is a cliché.


    Obviously, what the innkeeper said does make some sense.


    The innkeeper sighed with emotion, thinking that this matter was basically over. As long as everyone gradually forgot about this matter after a while, at least after the smell of blood in the room receded, everything would return to peace.


    However, the innkeeper soon realized that the trouble was not gone.


    On the third day, guests who originally stayed near Zhangcun’s guest rooms asked to check out…


    "What? Did you hear... someone crying in the room? There is still... there is..." The innkeeper''s face trembled, and he did not dare to say the word on the edge of his mouth, "You guys, did you hear it correctly? In this bright world, in broad daylight, how could...what could be there? 』


    There is no daylight, but it is not broad daylight at night! ” One guest obviously had dark circles under his eyes and said, “I can’t stay here anyway, so I’ll refund my money!” Get your money back! I want to live somewhere else! 』


    Inns are all short-term rentals. Some people pay once a day, and some pay once every three or five days. Therefore, if you want to return the money and leave, the innkeeper has no choice but to let him return the money and leave.


    This is impossible! ” The innkeeper gritted his teeth and denied, “There is no ghost at all! 』


    Of course the innkeeper cannot admit that there is a ghost. If he admits it, wouldn’t the entire inn stop trying to do business?


    ??In order to prove that the house where Zhang Cun died was normal, the innkeeper endured it, gritted his teeth, gritted his teeth, shook his legs and opened the lock on Zhang Cun''s door, and then pushed the door open tremblingly...


    ?There was a strange creaking sound from the door, which made everyone present tremble. Even at noon, I seemed to feel some icy air coming out of the door, which made people''s hair stand on end.


    ??The innkeeper held the door frame, took a few quick breaths, and then stretched his head and took a look inside.


    Everything is business as usual.


    In addition to the dark marks on the ground that have not been completely removed, there is also the faint smell of blood inside the house.


    "look! Nothing! "Seeing that there was no movement in the room for a long time, the innkeeper took a breath and his voice gradually became louder. He tried to prove that there were no ghosts in the house. "It must be just the sound of the night wind!" Look, there''s nothing! 』


    ??The innkeeper stood inside the house, waving his arms, wanting to invite more people into the house for verification, but most people stood at the door and peered in, not daring to step beyond the bounds.


    "boss! Do you only have the key to this room? "Someone in the crowd suddenly asked.


    The innkeeper nodded and said, "That''s right, I''m the only one who has..."


    “Since the door is always locked, the person can’t get in...but there is a sound inside the house...unless..."


    The innkeeper was suddenly shocked and said, "Don''t talk nonsense!" 』


    『I didn’t say anything nonsense, many people heard the sound! Not now, I can’t say it came out again at night! 』


    The innkeeper became anxious, "No, absolutely not!" 』


    “No matter what, I’m going to check out now... As you said, I don’t dare to stay anymore...”


    That’s right, let’s check out first! 』


    『It’s always better to be careful...』


    Check out, check out! 』


    『Boss, please act quickly and don’t delay us in finding a place to live! 』


    However, as more and more people checked out and left, other guests who did not hear any cries and screams at night, but with the intention of not making any big mistakes, asked to check out one after another, and some even asked the innkeeper to find them. An expert would do something like a ritual. For example, I heard that the Taoist priests of the Five Gods are very powerful. Opening a water and land ashram to send away lonely souls and wild ghosts might be able to eliminate disasters, eliminate ghosts, and so on...


    The innkeeper was so anxious that he couldn''t stop these guests from checking out. Even later, he himself became suspicious of the ghost in Zhangcun''s room, so he had to send people to the Wufang Dojo to invite Taoists to come and perform the ritual. Exorcise ghosts.


    The people from Wufang Dojo are here.


    ??The innkeeper watched with pain as Taoist priests from five directions arranged the ceremony, and then chanted scriptures...


    Some of the people watching were worshiping devoutly, some were laughing and joking, and some were silently reciting their thoughts. They all had different opinions, but everyone had the same understanding. Now not only the people around the inn knew that the case of Zhang Cun had been closed, but also People who were walking around to watch the excitement all knew what was going on...
