Vertical sun.

The rising sun rises in the east.

Warm sunlight passed through the window and fell into the room, waking up Shen Lian, who was sleeping soundly.

Shen Lian stretched and got up to wash up.

After finishing cleaning up, he quickly walked out of the door.

As soon as they went out, they saw Lu Shisan and Fatty Zhang waiting outside the door.

When the two saw Shen Lian, they bowed directly to Shen Lian, "Master Shen."

Shen Lian nodded slightly and said, "Let's go and eat first."

With that said, Shen Lian led the two of them to the food stall where they usually go, and said, "Boss, the old rule is three servings."

"Okay."

The shopkeeper's resounding reply.

Soon, three bowls of mutton soup and three naan were served.

Shen Lian said, "Eat quickly. After eating, we will enter the palace together."

Yesterday at Han Xun's residence, after learning that the building built by Han Qian ten years ago was the Temple of Heaven, Shen Lian decided to go to the Temple of Heaven to have a look in person.

If the problem cannot be found in the volume, then the problem may lie with the entity of the Temple of Heaven.

Therefore, he specially called Fatty Zhang and asked him to accompany him there.

Fatty Zhang is the best at Feng Shui and traps.

As an altar, the Temple of Heaven may contain some secrets, and Fatty Zhang is the best candidate.

Fatty Zhang is good at Feng Shui.

If there are some hidden mechanisms, Fatty Zhang is also good at it.

As for Lu Shisan, Shen Lian also wanted him to use the power of the Shadow Guard to check whether there was anything special discovered when the rooftop was built ten years ago.

Things that happened ten years ago are very difficult to investigate. Only a high-level intelligence agency like Shadow Guard can possibly find out.

If the shadow guards can't find it, then basically no one can find it.

Shen Lian took a sip of the sheep soup and said to Lu Shisan, "People should keep an eye on the temple. Han Qian was killed and Zhang Qin was also killed. Both of them are related to the temple."

"If people in the temple learn about it, they may suspect that they have been exposed and run for their lives."

Lu Shisan nodded, "Don't worry, sir. I have arranged enough power. Anyone who goes down the mountain will be followed by our people. We will never let anyone in the temple escape."

Shen Lian nodded slightly.

He continued, "After I investigate the Temple of Heaven, I will go to the temple myself. I want to see how many secrets are hidden in this temple."

The three of them soon had enough to eat and drink.

Shen Lian placed the copper plate on the table and left with the others.

Not long after, they arrived at the palace gate.

Shen Lian took out a token. After the guards looked at it, they quickly moved out of the way.

Li Shimin gave Shen Lian the privilege of entering and leaving the palace at will. Except for a few special places in the palace, there was basically no place that Shen Lian could not go.

Normally, besides looking for Li Shimin, Shen Lian would not just run around the palace casually.

After all, the palace is a very sensitive place. If you come here too much, it will inevitably cause unnecessary trouble.

He brought the two of them to a palace and said, "Wait for me here. I'll go see His Majesty first."

When we arrived at the palace, it would be inappropriate not to meet Li Shimin in person.

And if you want to go to the Temple of Heaven, which is dedicated to emperors, you need to inform Li Shimin in advance.

He asked the guard to report it, and soon the guard came back and said, "Sir Sir Shen, your Majesty allows you to come in."

Shen Lian nodded slightly and walked towards the main hall.

Entering the hall, they saw only Li Shimin sitting on the desk reviewing memorials in the empty hall.

When Li Shimin heard the footsteps, he didn't even raise his head and said, "Why did I bring you here? You are about to get married, and you don't know not to run to the palace."

Listening to Li Shimin's teasing and complaints, Shen Lian smiled and bowed, "Your Majesty, haven't I been busy fighting against the enemy?"

"oh?!"

When Li Shimin heard this, his eyes flashed.

He then raised his head, looked at Shen Lian, and said, "Is there any news about the Beidou Society thief again?!"

Shen Lian nodded slightly, and immediately informed Li Shimin about Han Qian and Han Xun's affairs in detail.

After hearing this, Li Shimin pondered for a moment, and then nodded slightly, "Mrs. Han is a hard-working person. Although Han Xun made mistakes, he protected the file and prevented the Beidou Society thieves from escaping. This can be regarded as a meritorious service."

"Your treatment is fair."

"Since you want to check out the Temple of Heaven, then go ahead."

Li Shimin raised his head, looked out the door, and said, "Deshun."

At this time, a middle-aged eunuch quickly walked into the palace with his head lowered, "Your Majesty."

Li Shimin said, "Deshun, you and Shen Lian go on a trip. If Shen Lian needs to question someone in the palace during his investigation, go and find them for Shen Lian."

Deshun was Li Shimin's trusted eunuch and was very powerful in the palace.

Since the Temple of Heaven is within the palace, it is inevitable that the people in the palace will need to cooperate when the time comes.

Therefore, Li Shimin arranged for Deshun to allow Shen Lian to investigate more smoothly.

To avoid being misled by some unsighted people.

Deshun did not dare to hesitate and said hurriedly, "Slave, follow your orders."

…………

Shen Lian and Deshun left the hall.

Deshun said quickly, "Master Shen, if you need anything in a while, just ask my servant, and I will do my best to help Master Shen."

Shen Lian nodded slightly and said, "Then it's my turn to thank you."

Deshun shook his head hurriedly, "This is what a slave should do. Master Shen, please don't be so polite. This will hurt your slave."

Shen Lian laughed and said, "Then I will no longer be polite to my father-in-law. I will treat my father-in-law as a family member. If there is any disrespect in my attitude, my father-in-law must forgive me."

When Deshun heard this, a smile suddenly appeared on his face, "It is my slave's luck to be treated like a family member by Lord Shen."

Shen Lian and Deshun looked at each other, then both smiled and nodded.

Deshun was able to serve Li Shimin in the palace, so he was naturally a very smart person.

He knew very well that Shen Lian's current status was no longer inferior to any of the royal relatives.

In the entire court, not only His Majesty is optimistic, but many officials also value Qin Wenyuan and Shen Lian very much. Moreover, because of some cases, Shen Lian has a very good relationship with Wei Zheng, Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and other big shots.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Under such circumstances, Shen Lian's momentum has become unparalleled among the younger generation.

Therefore, when Deshun faced Shen Lian, he did not have the arrogance of a servant of the emperor at all, but instead kept his attitude extremely low.

This was specifically for the purpose of showing favor to Shen Lian.

As for Shen Lian, being as smart as him, he could naturally see through Deshun's thoughts at a glance.

So his response just now was also a recognition of Deshun's goodwill.

Therefore, when the two of them looked at each other and smiled, their tacit understanding was obvious.

Deshun got the recognition he wanted and worked even harder. While leading the way, he said, "Master Shen, when the Temple of Heaven was built, I didn't have much power, so I didn't know much about the Temple of Heaven. But I know, There are still some old people in the palace who know about the construction of the Temple of Heaven."

"So, if Master Shen needs them, I will call them over soon and let Master Shen ask questions."

When Shen Lian heard this, his eyes brightened slightly. He did not refuse and said with a smile, "Then I'll thank you."

The Temple of Heaven definitely has some secrets.

And this secret may not be so easy to find.

Therefore, if we can get more information from people who were familiar with the matter back then, we will naturally find the secrets, which will be more helpful.

Deshun said with a smile, "It's not in the way, it's not in the way. It's a blessing for the slaves and them to be able to help Lord Shen."

Soon, several people came to a side courtyard and stopped.

The gate to the side courtyard is closed. There are two guards guarding the door, and above it, there is a plaque.

On the plaque, there are two big characters with flying dragons and phoenixes, Temple of Heaven.

Deshun said, "Master Shen, we are here."

Shen Lian nodded slightly.

Deshun looked at the guard and took out a token. His expression was far less warm than when he faced Shen Lian. He said calmly, "Your Majesty has an order. Lord Tang will handle the case here. Please cooperate well."
