Zhang Yun slowly stood up. He had been waiting for a long time. He was not in a hurry. He had to wait for Wei Tao to finish all the plays before he could take action.

"Everyone, since I invite you to come, I will take this opportunity today to give you a clear explanation. Regarding the assassination of Pei Xiangguo that happened a few days ago, I think it should be time to summarize this matter."

Zhang Yun's words caused a slight commotion. Zhang Yun has always been famous for being cautious and not being slight. Does he have any clues when he says this?

Wei Tao's gloomy face did not say a word, his lips turned white, Liu Yan's statement made him feel uneasy, and Zhang Yun's confidence made the uneasy deeper in his heart, but he didn't believe that Zhang Yun could find any powerful evidence that he hadn't last night!

Zhang Yun walked up to the front desk and smiled slightly for Pei Min, "Mr. Pei, please allow me to occupy this place for a moment."

Pei Min quickly packed the things on the table aside, leaving a space empty, "Zhang Xiangguo, please!"

Zhang Yun walked forward and faced everyone, like a magic trick. He clapped his hands. Everyone looked back and saw an official walking into the hall with a large package. Shen Zhenzhu stared at the proud Zhang Yun, with a complicated expression on her face.

The officials carefully placed the package on the table and slowly untied it. Many people stood up and looked into the neck. A slight scream came from the hall.

The brocade package was spread out, and only a few items were placed on it, a crossbow machine, a shaft of imperial edicts, and two booklets similar to registration papers.

Everyone immediately thought of the crossbow that shot Pei Zunqing on the scene, but it was obviously taken away by the inner guard, how could it be in Zhang Yun's hands? Could it be?

．

Zhang Yun picked up the crossbow machine and said to everyone calmly: "I believe many people have guessed this crossbow machine. Yes, it is the crossbow that I borrowed from the inner guard."

He pointed to a row of white traces on it and said, "This is the number of the crossbow machine. The military supervisor 433335. The manufacturer is Sun Hao, and he is behind everyone now."

Everyone turned around and saw a middle-aged man in his fifties standing up and bowing, "The villain is Sun Hao, a military weapon crossbow craftsman. This crossbow was made by the villain, six years ago."

"Okay! Please listen to me to continue."

Zhang Yun smiled and pulled everyone's attention back and continued: "According to the records of the military weapon surveillance, this crossbow was assigned to Fan Yang's army in January of the tenth year of Tianbao. Please see the records."

Zhang Yun raised a booklet, "This is the record of the military weapon surveillance at that time. It has a crossbow number and a signature of the officials at that time. It was written very clearly and was assigned to Fan Yang, but......"

Speaking of the word "but", Zhang Yun's tone suddenly became higher. Emphasizing this turning point shows that there will be significant information behind him.

"Although this batch of military weapons was allocated to Fan Yang's army, they did not transport them away and they had no time to transport them away. They just recorded the records on the books and the military weapons were still stored in the warehouse of Weiwei Temple."

Zhang Yun's words were like a turn of twists and turns, which made the originally simple case suddenly become confusing. Everyone straightened their waists and looked at Zhang Yun intently. Even Wei Tao was attracted, his face changed several times, and a kind of worry appeared in his eyes.

Zhang Yun slowly swept away everyone, as if they were letting everyone digest the deep meaning of his words, and as if they were swaying everyone's appetite. He smiled and continued, "I think many of you here still remember what happened in February of the tenth year of Tianbao, who still remembers?"

"It was Gao Xianzhi who was summoned to rebel in Nanzhao!" Yan Zhenqing, who had been silent, interjected.

"Shishou Minister Yan is right. In February of the tenth year of Tianbao, the late emperor appointed Gao Xianzhi as the governor of Jiannan, and dispatched 50,000 troops from Guanzhong, recruited 30,000 troops, a total of 80,000 people, and went to Jiannan to replenish troops. This matter was fully responsible for Li Lin, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of War at that time. I found a copy of the decree at that time."

Zhang Yun opened the scroll next to him and read aloud: "I will recruit 30,000 Guanzhong athletes to provide military uniforms and weapons to perform in Jingyuan. I will go to Shu in April...."

Zhang Yun put down his order and said with a smile: "Did you hear the clue? If you want to use military uniforms and weapons, that is, to arm this newly recruited army, then where the military weapons to arm them come from, the problem lies here!"

Zhang Yun picked up another thick booklet and whispered: "This is the registration book of the Weiwei Temple warehouse, with detailed records on it. The military weapons originally assigned to Fan Yang were transferred to Jiannan Army, and Fan Yang Army weapons were repaired afterwards. The number here is this crossbow."

Shi Potian's shocking words shocked everyone. Everyone understood that this crossbow did not come from Fan Yang's army, but from Jiannan army. In other words, the person who assassinated Pei Zunqing was not An Lushan, but was done by Li Heng of the Southern Tang Dynasty.

The hall was like a sensation, and the noise was clamoring. Zhang Yun distributed all the evidence, "Please check it out, this is the ironclad evidence!"

‘Damn!’ Pei Min rang the little bell, “Please be quiet!”

The conference hall suddenly became quiet again, and Pei Min said slowly: "Zhang Xiangguo has explained the facts to everyone like a deceiving cocoon. Now the truth is revealed. The person who killed Xiang Pei was done by the Southern Tang Dynasty. The court will show the world and condemn such despicable behavior. Do you still have the right opinions?"

Everyone looked at Wei Tao together. Wei Tao's lips were almost bitten and bleeding. There were too many loopholes in it. He could easily refute it. Who could prove that the crossbow machine was shooting Pei Zunqing? Who could prove that this was not framed by someone else? Will Li Heng be stupid enough to commit the crime with his crossbow arrows? How could he know that the batch of military weapons were originally allocated to An Lushan at that time? These were huge loopholes, but could he say it?

He saw the military weapon surveillance ascendant to the throne. It was true. This was something taken away by the inner guard. How could it be in Zhang Yun's hands? It can only be one thing. Zhang Yun's performance today was instructed by Li Qing'an, and he was carrying out Li Qing'an's orders.

At this moment, Wei Tao felt like a puppet clown, jumping around on the stage, but the thread was held in the hands of others. A shame that he had never experienced before almost crushed his heart. He could no longer control his blood, and a stream of passion surged into his brain, blurting out: "I don't accept it!"

The hall was so quiet that it seemed as if a needle fell down and could hear it clearly. No one spoke, looking at Wei Tao with a sympathy or pity. Things had come to this point, and he had nothing to argue with. Lu Huan sighed, pulled Wei Tao for a moment, and whispered: "Shu Wei, don't say anything more."

Pei Min asked again: "Shangshu Wei, what do you want to say?"

Wei Tao waved his hand and said exhaustedly: "It's nothing, Zhang Xiangguo is right!"

"Okay, this case will be settled, and the Secretariat will draft an order and spread it all over the world!"

At this moment, the voice of the Empress Dowager Chen Zhenzhu came from behind, "The Ai family also has a few words to say!"

She stood up, surrounded by palace maids, walked towards the front desk, and walked to the front. She glanced at everyone and said aloud: "My ministers, can the Ai family say it?"

Everyone bowed and saluted, "Please give an order!"

Chen Zhenzhu nodded and said, "Pei Prime Minister has passed away. We should remember it. But the court has its own principles and the government must continue. Zhang Prime Minister said it was right just now. We are in opposition to the Southern Tang Dynasty and we will wipe out An Lushan's rebellion. The soldiers of the front army bravely serve the country. We should unite with sincerity to make the government operate quickly and quickly, so that the military rations can go to the front line early, so that the soldiers will not be hungry and cold. But the current situation is not optimistic. The Ai family saves its roots because the right prime minister is hanging in the air. Today, taking this opportunity, the Ai family proposes that the left prime minister Zhang Yun succeed to the right prime minister to maintain the stability of the court. This is just the words of the Ai family. The right prime minister is very important, and the ministers must discuss and decide."

Zhang Yun never dreamed that it was the Queen Mother who later declared him the right prime minister in the end. His mind changed very quickly and suddenly understood Li Qing'an's painstaking arrangements. According to the empty convention of the superiors, the right prime minister and the Political Affairs Hall were elected by a hundred officials above the fifth rank. This is why Wei Tao tried his best to win over middle and lower-level officials.

But the convention is not the law. The laws of the Tang Dynasty were always appointed and removed by the emperor from the third rank or above. When the emperor was young, the empress dowager could also designate the prime minister on his behalf. This is in line with the law. Of course, the premise is that the empress dowager must have sufficient power.

But in today's situation, Li Qing'an just didn't want to take the path of all officials choosing, so he borrowed the Empress Dowager's deduction to designate him as the right prime minister. All officials can ignore the Empress Dowager's designation, but who would still object to Zhang Yun's performance just now?

There was silence in the hall, and Pei Min finally spoke first, "I am willing to obey the Queen Mother's orders and support Zhang's succession as Right Prime Minister."

Liu Yan also stood up and said, "The country has no form and is unstable for a day. I support Prime Minister Zhang as the right prime minister."

"I also support Prime Minister Zhang as the right prime minister." This is Yan Zhenqing's statement.

Almost in order, the ministers expressed their support one by one. When it was Wei Tao's turn, he suddenly snorted heavily, turned around and left.

． ． ． ． ． ． ．

At the Baqiao military camp, a team of cavalry rushed from a distance, stopped a hundred steps away, shouting: "I am the inner guard Hu Peiyun, please see the general!"

The red flag fell from the camp gate, Hu Peiyun turned over and dismounted and walked quickly towards the camp. Hu Peiyun was the deepest member of the Yinlong Association to enter the Anxi Army. He had already reached the third rank, the left general of the inner guard, and held the intelligence power of the Anxi Army. He was one of Li Qing'an's most trusted confidants. Among the gold medals assigned by Li Qing'an to the generals, his gold medal ranks fifth, second only to Duan Xiushi, Li Siye, Feng Changqing and Li Guangbi. This shows Li Qing'an's trust in him.

But today Hu Peiyun felt a little bitter in his heart. He truly felt Li Qing'an's imperial mind.

It was noon at this time. He quickly came to the front of the coach's account, but learned that Li Qing'an's bedroom account was arranged in two large and small accounts, and there was an inner account inside. One was to keep warm, but more importantly, it was to be safe. According to his identity, he could go directly to the outer account of the bedroom account.

As soon as he picked up the curtain and entered the outer tent, the two personal guards guarding the door of the inner tent quickly 'shh!' and whispered: "The General is not awake yet!"

Hu Peiyun was stunned. Li Qing'anke never slept until noon. "What happened?" he asked in a low voice in surprise.

"The General entered the city last night and came back in the early morning."

"Oh!" Hu Peiyun didn't dare to ask more. At this time, Li Qing'an's somewhat tired voice came from the inner tent, "Who is outside?"

"General, it's me!"

"Come in!"

Hu Peiyun walked into the inner tent, and there was only Li Qing'an, and there was no woman who served him. This was the difference between Li Qing'an and other princes. There were at least two women in the tent of other princes, and Li Qing'an never brought women into the military camp. This was his principle.

The light in the inner tent was very dark, filled with a faint fragrance, not magnificent, nor was it made of pearls and jade. It was just a thick Persian carpet. This was a gift from Emperor Dashi. There were several cushions inside, and a fiery red fox skin was covered with a fire-red fox skin. Hu Peiyun knew the origin of this fire fox skin. Duan Xiushi was hunted by Duan Xiushi two years ago and presented it to Li Qing'an. Unexpectedly, Li Qing'an was used as a bedding for sleeping on his own, but Duan Xiushi was demoted and demoted from the Anxi supervisor to the Jiedushi of Guannei Dao.

Although Li Qing'an demoted Duan Xiushi, he still used the things he offered. From this small matter, you can see Li Qing'an's generous side. Thinking of this, Hu Peiyun's little dissatisfaction disappeared without a trace.

He bowed and said, "I am not good at the position of the general!"

Li Qingan lay on the fox fur, and could see that his face was still tired, as if he was not awake, he waved his hand and said, "What's going on in the court?"

"Reporting to the General, the Political Affairs Hall and the Privy Council passed the proposal of the Empress Dowager, officially enthroning Zhang Yun as the right prime minister of the Secretariat, and has issued an order to the court."

"Yeah!" Li Qingan was not very concerned about this matter. As he expected, he was obviously more concerned about the Pei Zunqing case.

"Has that case turned out?"

"Reporting to the general, the court has determined that it was done by the Southern Tang Dynasty and has issued a certificate of the whole country to condemn the despicable behavior of the Southern Tang Dynasty assassinating Pei Zunqing."

"I'm not talking about the court, I'm talking about you, have your investigation been found?"

"Since the court has drawn a conclusion, it will be meaningless to investigate the low-level position. The high-level position is asking the general to stop the investigation."

Li Qingan didn't say anything, and looked at him coldly, and Hu Peiyun didn't explain anything. He believed that Li Qingan should understand what he meant.

In fact, Hu Peiyun had accidentally found out the truth. Last night, when he was sorting out things for Zhang Yun according to Li Qing'an's order, he accidentally discovered that the crossbow was his spoil. It was seized by him when he cleared An Lushan's spy in Chang'an two months ago. The crossbow was on the list at that time. He searched for four or five days and it turned out that the crossbow actually originated from him.

But what shocked him even more was that the crossbow, together with some of the spoils at that time, was handed over to Li Qing'an. In other words, the murderer's crossbow came from Li Qing'an's hands. What does this mean? This made Hu Peiyun dare not think about it anymore.

Early this morning, the truth of another clue also surfaced, and the wine the murderer drank was found out. This was the most proud part of Hu Peiyun. His subordinates were incompetent. They could find the answers to what seemed incredible to others, but this time the answer was difficult for him to accept. The murderer drank Sanlejug, which had been stored in the cellar for more than 30 years.

Hu Peiyun knew that there was only one place in Chang'an. The Rehai Ijijiu Store in the West City, and the owner of the wine shop was Changjin, which was the stronghold of Yinlonghui in Chang'an.

If the secret of the crossbow was not discovered, Hu Peiyun might not believe that this case was related to the Yinlong Club. What would Yinlong kill Pei Zunqing for? Perhaps the 30-year-old Sanlejue was just a coincidence, but now Hu Peiyun understands that Pei Zunqing was killed by the Yinlong Club.

The tent was very quiet, so quiet that Hu Peiyun felt an invisible murderous intent covering him. After a while, this murderous intent gradually disappeared. Li Qing'an's tired voice sounded in the tent, "You can stop investigating and completely seal it!"

"yes!"

Hu Peiyun understood the meaning of this 'complete seal'. He bowed and slowly withdrew from the big tent. When he walked to the door of the big tent, he suddenly heard Li Qing'an say: "I remember you are also a member of the Hidden Dragon Society!"

Hu Peiyun was shocked all over. He slowly turned around. A smile appeared on Li Qingan's tired face. This smile was like a ray of sunshine that broke through the dark clouds. It immediately made Hu Peiyun feel warm in his heart. An inexplicable emotion made his nose sore, nodded, and walked out quickly.

Li Qingan slowly closed his eyes. He was very tired and wanted to sleep for a while, but he knew he could not sleep anymore. Li Qingan sighed slightly. He had to do something. Pei Zunqing had done a little too much and did not abide by the rules of the game. For the benefit of the family, he ignored the eyes of the world and forced the Pei family to be the chief of Qingzhou, Yuanzhou, Longzhou, and Yanzhou. Li Qingan could tolerate these, but he did not know how to restrain himself, but instead became more and more powerful. He even bribed Zhao Yun, the doctor of the Southern Tang Dynasty's Rites, who was Dugu Haoran's disciple, and falsely accused Dugu Haoran of acquainting with the Southern Tang Dynasty. His ambitions had expanded to this extent, which made Li Qingan unable to bear it.

But no matter what, he had to go to Pei Zunqing's mansion in the afternoon and accompany Wan'er.

Half an hour later, Li Qingan returned to his mansion, and the whole family rushed out of the gate to greet him, just like a warrior who welcomed the victory. Li Qingan looked at his wife and daughter, and his heart was filled with an incomparable happiness.

"Dad!"

The eldest daughter Li Siduo ran up with her arms spread out. Five days away from her two-year-old birthday. Li Qingan picked her up, kissed her heavily on her face, clicked on her nose and smiled, "What birthday gift do daddy want you to give me?"

"Dad, I want honey!"

When Li Qingan heard that his daughter Babaer wanted honey as a birthday gift, he couldn't help but laugh. At this time, his son also ran up to hug his legs, "Dad, I want a gift too!"

Li Qing'an's son was officially named Li Tan when he was one year old and was named Prince Yiwu. He was only two months younger than Li Siduo, but he was strange and elves. All kinds of ideas could be thought of from his little head.

Li Qingan also picked him up and asked with a smile: "What gift do you want?"

The little guy pointed at Li Qing'an's Wanli Chasing Yunma and said, "I want Dad's horse!"

"Hehe! You guy is pretty thinking. If you want your dad's war horse, that's fine! Dad will give you a pony and let you ride it every day."

"Okay!" The little guy clapped his hands with joy.

"Dad, I don't want honey anymore, I want horses too."

Li Qingan loved his baby daughter and pricked her little face with her beard, and smiled and said, "Dad also gives you a horse."

"I want a big horse, bigger than my younger brother's."

At this time, Rushi smiled and carried her daughter over, "Dad is tired, let her rest."

Mingyue also walked up to her son with her big belly and said, "Stop making trouble, come down quickly."

Li Tan was favored by his aunts, but he was very afraid of his mother. He obediently got off Li Qing'an and was led aside by Ruhua.

Mingyue was almost born and it was very difficult to walk. She stepped forward and smiled and said, "You don't say anything before you come back. Wuyi happened to take the child to Ci'en Temple to fulfill her wish."

Wuyi's adopted daughter is the orphan left by Zhang Yue. She was named the lord of Jinman County and also Li Qing'an's daughter. Li Qing'an asked, "Does their mother and daughter get along well?"

"When the child first came, he made a fuss for a few days and asked for his aunt. Later, he slowly adapted. The day before yesterday, he hugged Wuyi's neck and shouted 'Mom!' Wuyi's tears came out. The child was very sensible and heartbreaking."

"Well! How is your body?"

"It's almost done! I've given birth to a baby, and I know that there's no big problem. The baby's fetal position is very correct. By the way, I'm going to write a letter to tell you that Wan'er is also pregnant. Half a month ago, the imperial doctor diagnosed her with a happy pulse."

Li Qingan nodded. Actually, he already knew that it was because Wan'er was pregnant that Pei Zunqing was so crazy. Mingyue saw that her husband had no ecstasy on her face and said in surprise: "Do you know?"

"That doctor Zhang said it out. You know that my intelligence network has always been very powerful."

Mingyue nodded silently and said, "The affairs of her grandfather have hit her a lot. Go and comfort her!"

Li Qingan then found that Pei Wan'er was not here and couldn't help asking, "Where is Wan'er?"

"She is in her room, and I have ordered someone to tell her that you are back!"

．

．

．

Pei Wan'er's residence is called Dongyuan, which is a quiet and elegant courtyard. This is also the arrangement Mingyue specially arranged for her, considering her family background. It is a little bigger than Qinsiyuan in Wuyi. The yard is full of various orchids. Orchids are Pei Wan'er's favorite. A bunch of green bamboos surrounded the small building where she lives, which is particularly elegant. Pei Wan'er has four maids, all of whom are personal maids she brought from her parents' home. She entered the Zhao Prince's Mansion. According to convention, the four maids have regained their freedom, but this has no meaning to them. They grew up with Pei Wan'er and have long regarded her as their master.

"Girl, the master is here!"

As soon as Li Qingan walked into the yard, Bai Lan, one of the four maids, shouted, and she was still used to calling Wan'er a girl.
Chapter completed!
