Chapter 77 Showdown!New case!
Listening to Lin Feng say the word "perfect", everyone present couldn't help but feel a sense of joy that the clouds could be lifted to reveal the sun, and the night would be bright.

It's finally over.

It seems that no matter how long the night is, it will eventually pass.

The Zhao Deshun case was like a big mountain weighing on the Zhao family, Wei Zheng and Sun Fujia. They thought they had seen the whole mountain, but they didn't know that all they saw was the foot of the mountain covered by dark clouds, and even the mountainside. not here.

But now, Lin Feng has cleared away the dark clouds for them, allowing them to finally peek to the top of the mountain and see the real truth!

And not only did he see the truth, he also took them to the top of the mountain and picked the most important fruit - something that the fake Zhao Yanran and Lu Chenhe who created all these conspiracies never got it!

And all this only lasts one day!
We arrived last night, cracked everything tonight, and got the treasure that these thieves dreamed of!
This really made everyone present feel like they were in a dream.

Zhao's eyes flashed with admiration and said: "Once word spreads about Mr. Lin tonight's incident, Mr. Lin will surely become famous in the future, and our Tang Dynasty will also have another legendary detective."

Zhao Minglu nodded heavily, his eyes full of fanaticism like a believer: "My benefactor's ability should be famous all over the world. How many people in the world can have the ability of my benefactor?"

Lin Feng looked at Zhao Minglu's enthusiastic expression and felt that Zhao Minglu was a little too grateful to him. He waved his hands modestly and said, "This is nothing, I don't dare to brag about it."

When Cheng Yaojin heard this, he waved his hand and said: "How can you call it a boast? I, old Cheng, think that he is well-informed. What kind of monsters and monsters have I not seen? But I have never seen such a case-solving ability as yours." However, I think it’s not too much to call you the number one detective of the Tang Dynasty!”

As he said that, he turned to look at Wei Zheng and said, "Xuancheng, tell me, am I right?"

The unsmiling Wei Zheng glanced at Cheng Yaojin, then nodded slightly and said in very calm words: "It's really not too much."

Cheng Yaojin was really surprised when he heard this. Who doesn't know that Wei Penzi has the highest vision and the highest demands?In the imperial court, it was even harder to get a word of praise from Wei Zheng than to go to heaven. In the end, he boasted that Lin Feng was the best detective of the Tang Dynasty. Wei Zheng, who had such high vision and high demands, actually nodded!

Cheng Yaojin couldn't help but take a deep breath. Lin Feng's status in Wei Zheng's heart was higher than he expected!

Cheng Yaojin couldn't help but look at Lin Feng a few more times. He originally thought Lin Feng was pleasing to his eyes, but now he even felt that he was a talented person who would have a future.

Lin Feng was so favored by these big guys, and he quickly showed a humble smile.

Wei Zheng nodded appreciatively again.

Lin Feng felt that his performance tonight should be a perfect score in Wei Zheng's heart, and his favorability score should be almost the same. He was ready to strike while the iron was hot.

Taking advantage of Wei Zheng's favorable impression of him, he showed his cards to Wei Zheng and told the truth.

Cheng Yaojin coughed and said: "Since the matter here is completely over, let's go directly without delay."

Lin Feng and Wei Zheng both nodded. The thief had been caught and the treasures had been found. It was a complete success.

Everyone left immediately.

In order to take care of Wei Zheng, Sun Fujia and the others, Cheng Yaojin thoughtfully prepared a carriage for them.

Everyone in the Zhao family walked outside the door and watched them leave.

Although Lin Feng and the others only came for one day and one night, it felt like a long, long time had passed.

In fact, too many things happened in this day and night.

These things will probably be unforgettable for the Zhao family for a lifetime.

And the name Lin Feng will be engraved in their hearts forever.

Mrs. Zhao looked at Zhao Minglu and said softly: "You must always remember Mr. Lin's kindness."

Zhao Minglu nodded heavily, like a vow: "I will never forget it in this life."

…………

on the carriage.

Everyone's bodies swayed back and forth with the carriage, and Lin Feng grabbed the edge of the window to prevent his head from being shaken into pulp.

Originally, he thought that when he was so sleepy, he could sleep comfortably and have a sweet dream, just like driving at night in his previous life.

But the cruel reality told him that this was really a dream.

The carriage has no shock-absorbing system, and the wheels are as hard as stones. When walking on uneven ground, it will really fly up at any time.

Fortunately, Cheng Yaojin didn't want to travel all night. He stopped after walking for two hours.

He came under the carriage and said: "We are tired and our horses are exhausted. We need to take a rest. Rest where we are for two hours, and then we can continue setting off after dawn."

Wei Zheng nodded slightly: "Okay."

After saying that, he looked at Cheng Yaojin who was looking at him with a smile and did not leave. Wei Zheng frowned and said, "Why don't you go and rest?"

Cheng Yaojin chuckled and said, "It's okay, I'll just take a look at you."

"Look at what I do?"

Cheng Yaojin said truthfully: "Let's see if you can maintain your usual upright image even though your whole body is sore."

Wei Zheng's face froze, and the hand he was rubbing his shoulders silently dropped, and he said expressionlessly: "It's boring."

As he said that, he closed his eyes directly and was not ready to get off the carriage. He leaned back and was about to rest.

When Cheng Yaojin saw that Wei Zheng didn't come down, he shook his head in disappointment. He thought he could see Wei Zheng limping, but it was a pity.

Seeing that there was no good show, he stopped delaying, yawned, and left.

Lin Feng only thinks that the way Wei Zheng and Cheng Yaojin get along is very interesting, or that all the big guys who have a good relationship with Wei Zheng have an interesting relationship with Wei Zheng.

They seemed to be looking for opportunities to see Wei Zheng's embarrassment at any time.

Dai Zhou was like this, and so was Cheng Yaojin.

It seems that Wei Zheng really made them miserable on weekdays, so that they could only have fun in this way, but how could Wei Zheng not know this and not give them a chance at all.

This is a bad friend...Lin Feng looked at Wei Zheng and saw that although Wei Zheng had his eyes closed, his hands were very dishonest. He was secretly tapping his waist while constantly moving his body slightly. It could be seen that Wei Zheng was My old bones are really sore and need a good stretch.

But Wei Zheng had just finished arguing with Cheng Yaojin, and with his temperament, he was too embarrassed to go out to stretch his muscles again.

When Lin Feng saw this, his eyes flickered slightly, and he felt that the time had come.

It's time for a showdown with Wei Zheng!
Wei Zheng's character was confirmed by Lin Feng, and he was more trustworthy than anyone else. If he showed his cards to Wei Zheng, Lin Feng didn't have to worry that Wei Zheng would take this opportunity to take advantage of him.

As for the former Dali Temple Prime Minister Lin Feng's fake death escape, he always felt that it was a huge conspiracy, a thunder that was about to explode at any time. Once this thunder exploded, he would probably be shattered into pieces, so he could not delay any longer.

Thinking of this, Lin Feng looked at Wei Zheng and whispered: "Mr. Wei, let's go down for a walk? I have something I want to talk to Mr. Wei alone."

When Wei Zheng heard this, he opened his eyes. He glanced at Lin Feng, with a hint of relief in his eyes, and said, "Then I'll go for a walk with you."

Obviously, Wei Zheng thought Lin Feng was helping him get out of the carriage to stretch his muscles.

Lin Feng smiled and naturally didn't say anything more.

The two got off the carriage and walked in the woods, with the wind whistling in their ears and feeling very cool.

Lin Feng tightened his clothes and looked at Wei Zheng who was stretching his muscles. He took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Wei, I have a secret that I want to tell Mr. Wei."

Wei Zheng was stunned for a moment. He turned to look at Lin Feng and said, "Is there really a secret?"

Lin Feng nodded and said seriously: "How dare I deceive Mr. Wei?"

Wei Zheng saw that Lin Feng's expression was serious, even solemn, and his expression became serious. He said, "Go ahead."

Lin Feng looked at Wei Zheng and said, "Mr. Wei, do you think it's pitiful for the real Zhao Yanran to be replaced by the fake Zhao Yanran by stealing the sky and exchanging the sun for the sun?"

Wei Zheng didn't expect Lin Feng to suddenly mention the real Zhao Yanran. Although he didn't know why Lin Feng suddenly mentioned Zhao Yanran, he still nodded and said: "It's pitiful."

"Isn't it pitiful that a good life is ruined just because of this fake Zhao Yanran?"

Lin Feng asked again: "Does Mr. Wei think Zhao Yanran is really innocent?"

Wei Zheng couldn't help but frown. He felt that Lin Feng's question was really strange, and said: "Of course she is innocent! She lived a good life, but just because the fake Zhao Yanran needed her identity, her family was ruined. Isn't it innocent?"

Lin Feng let out a long breath, faced Wei Zheng's baffled gaze, and said directly: "Then Mr. Wei... do you know that I, standing in front of you, am as pitiful and innocent a person as the real Zhao Yanran?"

"what?"

Wei Zheng was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Lin Feng meant at all.

Seeing that the preparations had been completed, Lin Feng went straight to the point and said, "Mr. Wei, actually I am not the real Lin Feng, the Prime Minister of Dali Temple!"

"Like the real Zhao Yanran, I was both a person who was mutilated by someone else. However, in Zhao Yanran's case, she was replaced, and I... was replaced by Lin Feng, the Prime Minister of Dali Temple."

After Wei Zheng heard this, he was very calm and his expression did not change at all.

Lin Feng was immediately shocked. He felt that Wei Zheng was worthy of being a big shot. He was so calm even with secrets of this level.

Then, before he could praise him, Wei Zheng's eyes suddenly widened, his expression cracked, and he couldn't hide the look of confusion on his unsmiling face. Lin Feng's whole face suddenly gave Lin Feng the feeling of "Are you kidding me?"

Wei Zheng just looked at Lin Feng in a daze, the expression on his face was out of control. This was enough to show how damaging Lin Feng's words were to Wei Zheng!
Even though Wei Zheng was as calm as he was, he couldn't calm down at this moment.

Did I not lay the groundwork enough? It was too sudden... Lin Feng couldn't help but worry: "Wei Gong, are you okay?"

Wei Zheng still didn't respond to him.

After a long time like this, Wei Zheng took a deep breath, his expression barely regained his composure, his tone was not as calm as before, and he said with a hint of surprise: "Are you serious?"

Lin Feng looked extremely serious: "How dare I joke about such a thing?"

Wei Zheng's dark eyes were staring at Lin Feng. Lin Feng could feel Wei Zheng's eyes looking at him. His eyes were calm and unafraid. After a moment, Wei Zheng looked back and his expression completely returned to its previous calmness.

He said, "What's going on?"

Lin Feng had already prepared a draft. Hearing this, he said directly: "Actually, I am a beggar. When the real Dali Temple Prime Minister Lin Feng was imprisoned for ten days, I was caught in the prison and replaced that Lin Feng. I wanted to go in his place. die."

"And the real Dali Temple Prime Minister Lin Feng has long since disappeared."

"I yelled and said I was not who I was, but no one believed me. They all thought I wanted to escape the crime, so they came up with this excuse."

"Later, Lin Feng, the former prime minister of Dali Temple, was worried that my yelling would arouse suspicion, so he found his accomplice, the deceased jailer of the Ministry of Punishment, and asked him to kill me and create a scene of suicide." I just didn’t expect that I didn’t die, and the collision completely ignited my desire to survive. Wei Gong also knew what happened next..."

Lin Feng quickly explained the whole story in the most concise language.

Wei Zheng was stunned when he heard this. He really didn't expect that the person he admired so much turned out to be a fake!And there is actually such a shocking secret hidden inside!

Wei Zheng couldn't help but think of what Lin Feng had mentioned about the fake Zhao Yanran. The fake Zhao Yanran was also using the sky to change the sun... He didn't know how complicated Lin Feng's mood was when he revealed that the fake Zhao Yanran was using the sky to change the sun.

He was silent for a while, digesting Lin Feng's content, thought about it, and asked, "What evidence do you have to prove what you said?"

"It's not that I don't want to believe you, it's actually that this secret is too shocking and too sudden."

Lin Feng was well prepared and said: "Lin Feng, the former Prime Minister of Dali Temple, was from the White Tiger Organization. Zhao Shishi and a prisoner had seen the white tiger pattern on his leg. Later, Dai Gong also investigated me because of this... But I There is no white tiger pattern on his body."

"On this point, Wei Gong can ask Zhao Shiwu for confirmation. He can prove it."

"Wei Gong can also ask Dai Gong for confirmation. Dai Gong almost wanted to arrest me because of this matter that day."

Wei Zheng frowned, with surprise on his face, and said, "You mean, the real Dali Temple Prime Minister Lin Feng is also a member of the White Tiger Organization?"

Lin Feng nodded and said: "Yes, that's why, after I stopped his accomplice Cuizhu from stealing the gold hairpin, their organization set fire to the Yushitai and left the white tiger pattern as a warning to me."

"After all, in their eyes, I was their scapegoat, but now the scapegoat has ruined their plans. How can they tolerate it?"

Wei Zheng paced back and forth, his brows furrowed, and he was obviously thinking about and judging Lin Feng's words.

As a censor, Wei Zheng would not believe anything easily, but out of his trust in Lin Feng, he would not believe Lin Feng's words at all, so this required careful consideration and analysis by him.

Lin Feng looked at Wei Zheng and continued: "Mr. Wei, I have no reason to deceive you now."

Wei Zheng looked at Lin Feng.

Lin Feng looked at each other calmly and said: "I didn't say it before because I am still a death row prisoner. I'm afraid that after I say it, you will suspect that I am trying to get away with it and not be beheaded... But now, I have completely solved the problem. Regarding the Zhao Deshun case, according to His Majesty’s words, I can be reinstated immediately.”

"So there is no possibility for me to lie in order to survive. I choose to tell the truth to Duke Wei now because Duke Wei treats me sincerely. I can't bear to deceive Duke Wei. When I think of all the things I have concealed from Duke Wei, my My conscience is troubled."

After listening to Lin Feng's words, Wei Zheng's stern expression changed slightly.

Seeing this, Lin Feng struck while the iron was hot and continued: "Human beings are not grass and trees, no one can be ruthless. Even though I am a prisoner, Duke Wei has never despised me because of my status. Duke Wei believes in me, supports me, and backs me up. Even if I want to do something that seems incomprehensible, Duke Wei will support me without complaint."

"If Mr. Wei treats me like this, if I continue to hide it from Mr. Wei, where will my conscience be?"

"So, even if concealing this matter means that I can obtain the sixth rank status of Dali Temple Prime Minister that I could not even imagine before, I will give it up without any hesitation. Even after telling the truth to Wei Gong, I will immediately I am also willing to be beaten back to my original shape and turn back into the beggar who can only beg on the street!"

"I just want to be worthy of Duke Wei's sincerity in treating me! I just want peace of mind."

What Lin Feng said was sincere. Of course, there was a reason for hoping to win Wei Zheng's favor, but it also contained his true thoughts. Wei Zheng really didn't say anything to him, it was so good!

Under this situation, Lin Feng was sincerely grateful to Wei Zheng.

He really didn't want to deceive Wei Zheng.

Wei Zheng listened to Lin Feng's words and looked at Lin Feng with his eyes. Lin Feng did not dodge at all and just looked at Wei Zheng calmly.

Eyes can sometimes convey information better than words.

The two looked at each other like this for ten breaths. Wei Zheng slowly exhaled and said, "You have deceived me, and you want to turn back into a beggar and run away. What do you think of me?"

Lin Feng was startled.

Then Wei Zheng said calmly: "After returning to Chang'an, I will ask Dai Shangshu for confirmation as soon as possible. If everything is true as you said, you are really an innocent and pitiful person, and you can't continue to be a beggar."

As he spoke, he turned around and left, his voice carried by the night wind: "Wasting your skills on begging, such a waste of natural resources, I can't do it... There is no place for you in Dali Temple, if you can't do it at Yushitai If you want to come, come.”

Lin Feng was stunned for a moment, then his eyes widened.

Suddenly, it felt like a fire was burning inside.

Although he had expected such a result, when he actually heard Wei Zheng say these words, Lin Feng still felt as if his whole body was surrounded by warm light.

He took a deep breath and saluted Wei Zheng very formally: "Thank you, Mr. Wei!"

…………

Wei Zheng didn't say anything during the rest of the journey.

Lin Feng spoke very little.

He knew that even if Wei Zheng trusted him again, he would still need to verify it, but he was not worried. What happened between Dai Zhou and the prisoner really happened. If he asked, he would know everything.

In addition to Zhao Shiwu's confession and the fact that he had no need to lie, many factors were enough to prove his words.

Sun Fujia looked at Lin Feng and Wei Zheng from time to time, his eyes filled with confusion. He always felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the carriage, but he couldn't put his finger on it.

In this way, before midnight the next day, they finally arrived at Chang'an City.

With Cheng Yaojin's token, the closed Chang'an city gate was quickly opened, and everyone entered Chang'an city.

Cheng Yaojin rode his horse, looked at Wei Zheng in the carriage, and said, "I am going back to the Ministry of War for business first. Do you want to go back to the mansion to rest directly, or are you going somewhere?"

When Wei Zheng heard Cheng Yaojin's words, he said his first words of the whole day: "Go to Dai Shangshu's residence."

Cheng Yaojin froze for a moment.

He looked confused: "It's already late, why are you disturbing him? It's very rude to disturb someone's dream."

Lin Feng's eyes flashed slightly, he could understand Wei Zheng's thoughts.

Wei Zheng didn't want to wait more than a quarter of an hour to find out the truth about his secret.

Wei Zheng said in a deep voice: "This matter is related to the conspiracy of the White Tiger Organization, and there can be no delay."

Seeing Wei Zheng's serious look, Cheng Yaojin said, "That's alright, you can go ahead. I have official business and can't accompany you."

Wei Zheng nodded: "I'll thank you another day."

Cheng Yaojin chuckled and said, "As I said, just don't trouble me in the court, Your Majesty."

Wei Zheng directly lowered the car curtain, not even bothering to respond: "Zhao Shiwu, let's go."

Zhao Shiwu glanced at Cheng Yaojin apologetically and quickly drove the carriage.

When Cheng Yaojin saw this, he couldn't help laughing and scolding: "What evil did I do in my previous life, to meet you as stubborn as this in this life!"

He shook his head, but he wasn't really angry. After all, who doesn't understand Wei Zheng's temper?If Wei Zheng suddenly became easy to talk to, he would feel a little strange.

"Let's go too."

The two parties separated and went in opposite directions.

…………

The carriage stopped in front of Dai Zhou's mansion.

Wei Zheng and others got off the carriage one after another.

Looking at the closed door, Wei Zheng said: "Call the door."

Zhao Shiwu quickly stepped forward and knocked on the door.

Not long after, footsteps came from the door, and at the same time a voice came out: "It's so late, who is knocking on the door?"

Wei Zheng said in a deep voice: "I, Wei Zheng, have important matters to see Dai Shangshu. Please inform me."

"Wei Gong!?"

The voice inside the door suddenly changed, and he quickly opened the door.

A middle-aged man who looked like a housekeeper poked his head out of the door. When he saw that the person was indeed Wei Zheng, he quickly bowed to Wei Zheng and said, "I have met Mr. Wei."

Wei Zheng waved his hand and said, "I'm sorry for bothering you so late at night. Please inform Shangshu Dai."

When the housekeeper heard this, there was a hint of sadness on his face. He looked at Wei Zheng with a frown on his face and said, "Mr. Wei, something happened to my master!"

"what?"

Lin Feng and the others were stunned, and Wei Zheng was also quite surprised: "Something happened? What happened?"

The steward said: "Wei Gong doesn't know anything. Just yesterday morning, my husband went to see the envoy from Meng Shezhao. But not long after, news came that the envoy from Meng Shezhao and the eldest prince Meng Shezhao had died. Yes! And my husband became a suspect and was controlled. "

"The envoy died in our Tang Dynasty Post House. Your Majesty was very angry and ordered Dali Temple to investigate the matter. Now I am being controlled by people from Dali Temple. Since yesterday morning, I have never left the post house."

After hearing the steward's words, even Wei Zheng's expression changed slightly.

The envoy died!

Dai Zhou also became a suspect!
Controlled by Dali Temple!
I was only out for a few days, why would such a change happen?
He couldn't help but look at Lin Feng. When it came to cases, Wei Zheng was now accustomed to asking Lin Feng's opinion first.

Lin Feng frowned slightly, obviously thinking about this matter.

Lin Feng gently rubbed the thumb and index finger of his right hand, and his brain was running rapidly... At the critical moment when he left, when his identity was exposed, and Wei Zheng needed to ask Dai Zhou for confirmation... Dai Zhou suddenly came across the case and became a suspect. Man, is this too much of a coincidence?
And Mengshe Zhao, isn’t this Nan Zhao?

The golden hairpin of Princess Changle was presented by the envoy of Meng Shezhao.

The envoy from Mengshe who presented the gold hairpin died, but Dai Zhou became a suspect... And the target of the White Tiger Organization is these gold hairpins...

Could this be too much of a coincidence?
Lin Feng raised his head and looked at Wei Zheng. When he saw Wei Zheng looking at him, he was stunned for a moment. Then he understood what Wei Zheng meant and said directly, "Mr. Wei, I think we need to see Dai Shangshu."

When Wei Zheng heard this, just like in Shangzhou, he did not distrust Lin Feng because Lin Feng revealed his identity. He nodded directly: "I will take you there."

 I would like to recommend a book written by a friend, Li Wei's "Da Ming: My Boss Zhu Yuanzhang", it is very interesting, you can take a look~
  A new volume of content begins, and the protagonist begins to take on a bigger stage.
