On the third day that Song Mu stayed in the Dali Temple, he had already seen six pieces of paper written in front of him burnt.
Regardless of poetry or articles, even if Song Mu tried his best to control the fluctuations in his writing power, the paper he was writing on would soon burn.
There was no pattern to be found in it, which made Song Mu's heart change even more heavily.
This incident has almost confirmed all the speculations about this matter. Song Mu cannot escape the blame no matter what.
Song Mu also had a heavy look on his face. He was thinking hard and didn't know what the reason was.
Several Qingtian guards in the room just looked at Song Mu, with some vigilance on their faces this time.
At this moment, the door suddenly opened, and Yan Ren's bald head appeared again.
He stepped into it, looked at Song Mu who was sitting aside and said in a deep voice.
"Master Song, a distinguished guest has come to see you."
When Song Mu came back to his senses, he only heard the sound of footsteps. The person walked into the room. He looked at the few ashes on the table and frowned.
Song Mu had also come to his senses at this moment. When he saw the person coming, his expression surged and he immediately stood up, bowed and handed over his hands.
"I am here to see Your Majesty!"
The visitor was none other than Li Ao. He was wearing a purple robe this time. He looked at the situation in the room, then looked at Song Mu, frowning slightly.
"Song Aiqing, in this case, is this really what you did?"
Li Ao asked lightly, but Song Mu quickly bowed his head, hesitating slightly, with a look of shame on his face.
"If you look at the current situation, it is indeed... the humble minister's doing."
Hearing Song Mu defend himself in this way, Li Ao raised his eyebrows slightly, but glanced at Song Mu again and shook his head slightly.
"I believe you have no motive in this matter. Song Aiqing, don't let this matter make you confused."
When Song Mu heard what Li Ao said, his expression relaxed and he was a little excited.
"Your Majesty is clear."
Song Mu said in a deep voice, while Li Ao walked around in the main room and looked at the things on the table. He wavered slightly and saw flames surging on the remaining papers.
Several Qingtian guards were slightly shaken, but they were stopped by Yan Ren. They bowed and exited the room, leaving only Song and Mu.
At that moment, Li Ao looked at Song Mu and whispered this time.
"I have no way of knowing the full context of this matter."
"But I will not allow anyone in this world to wantonly threaten the Queen Mother, Song Aiqing."
Song Mu bowed quickly, but Li Ao had already spoken.
"Since this fire was deliberately brought to you, I want you to put out the fire and restore your innocence. How about that?"
Song Mu was stunned when he heard this. He never expected that Li Ao would turn around like this. Not only would he not pursue any further investigation, he would actually let himself find out the matter.
Song Mu was shocked and was about to kowtow, but Li Ao stopped Song Mu's movements and looked at Song Mu calmly.
"The reason why I believe in you is because of your upright character and the vibration of the stars. I believe that the aura technique will not deceive me."
With that said, Li Ao took a step forward and stood in front of Song Mu and said.
"This month, I want a result. Song Aiqing, can you do it?"
Song Mu's expression paused, and he quickly handed over his hand.
"I will definitely fulfill my mission!"
After the words fell, Li Ao responded, and immediately took out an imperial edict and gave it to Song Mu, instructing Song Mu to go back and wash up first.
When Li Ao left, Song Mu opened the imperial edict in his hand with excitement.
I only saw in the imperial edict that Li Ao was promoted to Song Mu as an official of Dali Temple, responsible for studying case studies.
Li Ao gave Song Mu such an official position, and what he just explained, everything is self-evident.
Song Mu clenched his fists even more at this moment.
No matter how His Majesty made such a decision, he must get to the bottom of it, and he must uncover the villains hiding in the dark one by one.
After putting away the imperial edict, Song Mu immediately walked out. Before leaving Dali Temple, Yan Ren followed him from the side and raised his hand towards Song Mu.
He changed his doubts and cold eyes before, but said with a serious expression.
"Master Song, the Holy Father said that from now on, we will all obey your orders."
As he spoke, his eyes kept scanning Song Mu, and he couldn't help but think a little in his heart.
"Thank you, Sir Yan. It's just that Song has to rely on Sir for the things that were investigated before in this case."
Yan Ren also smiled and cupped his hands towards Song Mu. This time his eyes seemed to flicker slightly, but he spoke to Song Mu.
"Yan will do his best to help in this matter. However, your Excellency will only focus on the fire case. For other matters, please... take a moment."
Song Mu frowned immediately when he heard this, somewhat confused as to what Yan Ren meant.
Now I also want to concentrate on solving this fire case, but how can I do other things?
It's just that Song Mu was eager to return home and would not return for a few days. He didn't know how sick his master was, so he hurriedly said goodbye.
The moment he walked through the gate, Song Mu felt relieved.
The previous depression seemed to be finally relieved at this moment, and I felt quite elated.
At that moment, Song Mu walked out, but before he had gone far, the scholar suddenly came up to him, blocked Song Mu's path, and said with his hands raised.
"Song Zhuangyuan, I'm sorry to bother you, Xiaosheng. I have a question."
Song Mu was puzzled, but the other party had already spoken.
"The number one scholar in the Song Dynasty, the tragic situation of the Song family in Hongzhou, is it really because of the number one scholar?"
Song Mu suddenly paused, and at this time, the scholar next to him also came forward and asked Song Mu this time.
"Song Zhuangyuan, this time you were taken into Dali Temple by the Qing Tianwei, but because of the fire in the imperial city, there are rumors in Chang'an that you started the fire?"
As several people said this, others immediately gathered around them, their eyes flashing with light, as if they were all waiting for Song Mu to tell him the reason.
Song Mu felt bad at the moment. Fortunately, a carriage arrived next to him and a familiar voice came.
"Song Zhuangyuan, there is something urgent at home, please come with me quickly."
When Song Mu heard these words, he immediately felt that he had a savior. He quickly looked around and saw Xu Yuncai's face. At this moment, he hurriedly moved around and got on the carriage.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! When the carriage started to move, Song Mu breathed a sigh of relief, but he quickly asked.
"Brother Xu, something happened in my family..."
Just as he said this, Song Mu looked into the carriage and saw that Tao Fengming was also there at the moment, looking at him.
"Master."
Song Mu immediately moved forward. Tao Fengming also looked at Song Mu, looked at it carefully, sighed slightly and said.
"Okay, it's okay."
"Master is worried." Song Mu said. Xu Yuncai next to him also looked at Song Mu and said with emotion.
"Sir, I'm worried about you, so I was waiting here the day before yesterday. I didn't expect that you would be surrounded by these guys when you came out."
Song Mu was also moved when he heard this, and was a little surprised by what happened just now. Xu Yuncai explained the reason to Song Mu at that moment.
"This is a strange thing to say. After Brother Song was taken away by the Qingtian Guards the day before yesterday, the news suddenly spread all over the city, especially that you were taken away by the Anti-Corruption Division. Many people in Chang'an were talking about this.
Something.”
"It doesn't really matter. It's just that the evening before yesterday, at the Chang'an government office..."
Xu Yuncai said this, frowning slightly at this moment, looking at Song Mu, and sighed angrily.
"Then Song Chuanwen actually went to beat the drum of injustice, saying that Brother Song had killed his father and brother in Yuzhang City."
"After trying to no avail, this guy went to Gongyuan to redress his grievances, saying that his path to the imperial examination was ruined because of Brother Song."
Song Mu was also shocked when he heard this. He didn't expect that something would happen against him in Chang'an during the two days he was in Dali Temple.
"It's just that neither the government office nor the Gongyuan paid attention to this matter, but who would have thought that Song Chuanwen was not afraid at all and actually united with the gangsters in the city..."
When Xu Yun just said this, he didn't even mention it at all. This time he almost gritted his teeth and said.
"He said that he will not redress his grievances now. He only wants to have a civil war with you to relieve the so-called grievances in his heart."
"Then he let those thugs spread the word throughout the city. Now many scholars in the city have their thoughts fluctuating."
Xu Yuncai said angrily. Song Mu immediately thought deeply when he heard this. At this moment, he seemed to understand why His Majesty came today.
There is also what Yan Ren just said about His Majesty's sudden change of attitude.
The appearance of Song Chuanwen seems to have changed this matter.
