Kunning

Chapter 51: Gidozuka

There is a strange subtlety to the atmosphere.

Everyone didn't know if they felt something, their eyes wandered between Shen Zhiyi and Jiang Xuening, maybe they felt that Princess Leyang was too kind to Jiang Xuening.

The **** named Zheng Bao had already stepped down thanks to his gratitude.

Jiang Xuening's mind was relieved of a major matter. Although she didn't know what would happen next, her tense body finally relaxed a bit.

If you use the words of You Fangyin in the previous life, what is her name?

Come to think of it, it should be called "actress".

Other than that, she is top-notch in acting and pretending to be pitiful.

Come to think of it, it's not that bad.

Although she achieved her goal by using Shen Zhiyi, but in another sense, it can be regarded as a good relationship for Shen Zhiyi, right?

Can't count as evil, can't count as evil.

Jiang Xuening warned herself a few words, then said: "Let's go."

Shen Zhiyi had nothing to say.

Even though she didn't read the same direction as these companions when she returned to Mingfeng Palace, she took Jiang Xuening's hand and accompanied her all the way back to Yangzhizhai, and went into the hall and sat talking with them for a long time before leaving.

Xiao Shu seemed a little silent during the whole process.

When Shen Zhiyi left, she took a few glances, as if she wanted to say something. But looking at the other people sitting in the hall, he didn't say anything.

It wasn't until she saw Shen Zhiyi got up to leave that she followed in silence.

When Jiang Xuening turned her head and saw it, she guessed that she had something to say to Shen Zhiyi alone, maybe it had something to do with today, with the Palace of Compassion and Ning and Empress Dowager Xiao.

But it is not easy for anyone to catch up and listen.

As soon as Xiao Shu left, the hall became strangely quiet. Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, but no one spoke.

After a while, Fang Miao patted her chest with lingering fear, exhaled the breath she had been carrying all the way back, and sighed leisurely: "I ran into this kind of thing when I first entered the palace, but I almost didn't scare me to death."

The rest of the people also nodded in agreement.

They all said: "I don't know what's wrong with Yu Ruyi..."

Jiang Xuening naturally knew what was wrong with Yu Ruyi, so she just kept silent at the moment.

After all, she was standing below, so she shouldn't know.

Yao Rongrong looked terrified, but she was different from others, she was also a little curious besides being afraid, hesitated again and again, but actually lowered her voice, and said timidly: "Just now the Empress picked up the broken piece. Yushi happened to be next to me, and I, I caught a glimpse of the word. But, just, what does 'Yitong' mean?"

"Yitong?!"

Fang Miao, who was frowning and pinching her fingers to count good and bad for herself, trembled when she heard these two words, she couldn't help exclaiming, and looked at Yao Rongrong with almost terrified eyes, even her voice was slightly distorted.

"You actually saw these two words?"

Yao Rongrong was completely frightened by Fang Miao's reaction: "Look, I saw it..."

Zhou Baoying, who was the youngest and not familiar with the world, was the most confused: "What's wrong with these two words?"

In the early winter afternoon, the sun in the sky was covered by the hazy clouds, and the edge of the Forest of Steles in Baita Temple was already covered with fallen leaves, and the thin branches trembled in the cold wind.

A big brass bell hangs high in Chaoyin Pavilion.

Next to it is a short stone platform, on which there is a piano table, a tea table, and a lotus incense burner in the corner, and a incense seal placed inside is only half lit.

However, the next moment, he was swept down with anger and collapsed!

"Bang bang bang!"

The lotus incense burner fell on the steps below and jumped down the steps. Most of the pale incense ash in the burner poured out, and occasionally adorned a few dead leaves lying on the ground, which was shocking.

Jianshu's eyelids couldn't stop twitching, and he pressed his head down, not daring to look up.

All I could hear was that warm and generous voice from the past that had frozen like ice.

It was Xie Wei who, under his fury, became extremely calm and asked, "Who told you to do it?"

Jianshu said: "When the subordinates heard the news, the order had already been issued. When they asked them, they only said that it was the news from Jinling, and they were quite impatient with the subordinates in their words, as if they were a little defensive. After pretending to leave, I squatted there for half an hour. I saw a sedan chair coming from the direction of Le'an Square, and a person got off. He was in his fifties, skinny, with a goatee and a gray coat. If the subordinate reads correctly, it looks like Mr. Gongyi next to the head teacher."

Xie Wei is used to wearing white when he is not in the palace or looking for official business.

Unpretentious white clothes.

This makes him seem to have nothing to do with the troubles of the world, and he has no cause and effect in the world of mortals. The same white clothes may look like traffickers and pawns when worn by others, but there is always an unconcealable loftiness when worn by him.

It's just that there is a bit of cruelty in this high and wide area at this moment.

He asked again, "Where is Dingfei?"

Jianshu lowered his eyes and lowered his voice: "After learning about this, Daoqin specially ordered people to carefully review the secret letters that Mr. Dingfei sent to the capital in the past month, and there was no mention of today's events."

Xie Wei laughed: "I don't change my mind, how do I know that the same is true of my heart?"

Jian Shu didn't understand this for a while, he wanted to say that in Jinling, the son must have obeyed his master, even after he went to Beijing, he would send secret letters to the sect from time to time, and it was obvious that he was on the master's side in the sect.

But just as he was about to speak, what he said just now passed through his mind.

Gong Yicheng has always been by the teaching head's side, and rarely leaves Jinling.

How could the others have already arrived in the capital, and Mr. Dingfei who was also in Jinling didn't realize it and didn't give them any news?

Thinking of this, Jianshu's heart is already awe-inspiring: "Mr. means..."

Xie Wei's snow-white sleeve robe was stained with some incense ash, he raised his finger and stroked it lightly, not only did not wipe it off, but it melted the little incense ash, making the stain even more.

His normally clear eyebrows and eyes concealed a bitterness.

The line of his lips was straightened, and there was a hint of danger in his expression, which only made people feel terrified: "Since Gong Yicheng is here, he has been ordered by the head of the teaching. This is because I suspect that I have not moved for a long time. with me."

Thinking of the complicated situation in the teaching, Jian Shu couldn't help but frowned: "Sir, he hasn't done anything in the palace yet. Now Mr. Gongyi came and gave orders, ignoring your previous arrangements, and boldly, rashly If Ruyi lettering makes waves, it doesn’t matter if they fail, if it implicates Mr.

After all, the people involved are all the eyes and ears of the gentleman in the palace.

This is totally putting Mr. in danger!

Xie Wei was silent, only raised his eyes to look at the forest of steles in front of him.

Fallen leaves covered the ground.

Each stele in the forest of steles is six feet high and one foot wide, which is very different from ordinary stone steles. What is engraved on them is not some Buddhist gatha, but one after another ordinary names.

In the future, the name was not even engraved.

There are only blank stone tablets standing in the bleakness of the mountains.

"The current court situation is like a string of arrows, and it is about to explode. It doesn't matter if I get involved, I'm afraid that this matter will be used by someone with a heart, and harm other innocent people." He slowly closed his eyes, thinking about the personnel in the church, When he opened it again, the bottom of his eyes, which were as dark as cold, was already filled with a murderous silence, even revealing a bit of gloom, "Destroy my plan. It's not enough to succeed, but it's more than a failure!"

Jian Shu had long seen that the group of people in the sect were not pleasing to the eye, so he wanted to say something when he opened his mouth.

Just out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of someone coming up from the back mountain.

He is an old monk wearing cassock with kind eyebrows and kind eyes.

So he swallowed the words that were about to be exported.

That old monk is the abbot and abbot of Baita Temple, his name is Wangchen, and all those who worship the Buddha respectfully call him "Master Wangchen". Xie Wei invited him to give a lecture today.

He came from a distance, and when he reached the Chaoyin Pavilion, he saw the incense ashes scattered in front of the steps.

The footsteps stopped.

Xie Weiren stood on the pavilion, he was clearly stern and cold before, but when he turned around, he disappeared, the corners of his lips were slightly curved like a spring breeze, and the green hills were far away, he said: "Shicai's sword book is reckless, knock it over I don’t want to blame the master if I took off the censer.”

Sword Book: "..."

Grandmaster Wangchen put his hands together in salute, and said generously: "Amitabha, it's fine."

In Yang Zhi Zhai, anyone with a little bit of thought would know as soon as they heard it. Since Fang Miao had such a big reaction to Yao Rongrong's words, she must know something.

So they all asked.

Fang Miao said: "When you hear the word 'Yi Tong', can you not remember anything?"

Everyone was a little confused.

Jiang Xuening remained silent.

It was Chen Shuyi who reacted quickly, her eyelids twitched, and she suddenly said: "You mean, could it be... Yitong Tomb?!"

As soon as this remark was made, someone said "Ah", obviously thinking of it a little bit.

It's just that this matter happened twenty years ago, and most of them had only heard about it, knowing that there was such a place and something happened, but they didn't know the specific situation back then.

Zhou Baoying was even more ignorant, and asked, "What, what's the matter?"

Fang Miao glanced at Chen Shuyi, and then said: "It was twenty years ago when King Pingnan rebelled against the party and joined forces with the Tianjiao rebel party to commit rebellion..."

King Pingnan was originally the brother of the late emperor. He was very brave and good at fighting, and he was very popular in the court.

But the first emperor couldn't help marrying the Empress Dowager Xiao.

Empress Dowager Xiao's elder brother is Duke Ding Xiao Yuan, behind him is the entire Xiao clan, and at that time Xiao Yuan also married the elder sister of Hou Yihou next door, who was Yan Lin's aunt, as his wife, the two most prominent members of the Daqian Dynasty The family was united by in-laws and the late emperor to support the late emperor. How could the late emperor fail?

So in the end the throne changed, and it was the former emperor who won.

After he ascended the throne, he sent Pingnan Wang Yuan to the fiefdom.

Unexpectedly, King Pingnan was not reconciled, secretly raised soldiers, and colluded with the Tianjiao, which was widely spread among the people and attracted many believers, and its power became stronger and stronger.

Twenty years ago, together with the leader of the Tiantian sect, he sent troops to the north and took the capital directly.

Heavy soldiers surrounded the entire palace.

At that time, the late emperor was hunting in Shanglinyuan, but because of this, he escaped a catastrophe, and was escorted by Shanglinyuan's elite soldiers all the way to the north.

However, Empress Dowager Xiao, who was still a queen at that time, and Shen Lang, who was still a prince at that time, still stayed in the palace.

"It's strange to say that King Pingnan's elite soldiers and the rebellious party of Tianjiao entered the palace, but there was no trace of the empress dowager and the saint, so I suspected that there was a secret passage in the palace that allowed them to escape from the palace. When Fang Miao said this, her voice paused, and a hint of fear appeared in her expression, "But the rebels have already besieged the city. If the Empress Dowager and the Holy One escape from the palace at this time, they have to go through various city gates to escape. When they left the city, they immediately sent heavy troops to guard the city gates, and no one would be released. King Pingnan hated the former emperor deeply, and refused to stop until His Highness the Crown Prince was found, so he sent people to search every house in Beijing. Boys over, under the age of twelve, or over three feet tall were all arrested..."

Everyone shuddered when they heard this.

Jiang Xuening already felt a little nauseous.

Fang Miao's voice was a little difficult, but there was a force pushing her to continue, as if this matter should be known to many people: "At that time, many people in Beijing had heard of the war and fled early, but in Beijing There are still quite a few families, so there are more than 300 boys arrested. His Royal Highness was about eight years old at the time, and King Pingnan arrested the palace servants who had served His Highness in the palace to identify them. More than 300 boys But none of them was the prince. King Pingnan was furious. The capital was surrounded by iron barrels. He didn't believe that people could fly with wings, so he sent an order to the whole city. If someone hid the prince, he had better hand it over as soon as possible, otherwise Then he slaughtered all the three hundred boys who had been arrested."

Zhou Baoying should have never heard of this before, her eyes were already rounded, and she asked softly, "What about later?"

Fang Miao's face turned pale, and she said: "Later, Duke Ding and Marquis Yongyi retreated the rebel army and reopened the closed city gate to enter the capital, only to see a pile of corpses piled up at the gate of the palace. The heavy snow of the day froze people together, and the blood congealed into solid ice, which could not be chiseled even with a chisel, and if a piece was chiseled off, it might still be attached to human flesh, so they would not dare to move again. When the snow melted into water, People are rotten..."

"vomit!"

Yao Xi, who had been listening and saying nothing before, finally couldn't bear it anymore, covered her mouth and ran out of the house.

The faces of the others were also very ugly.

Fang Miao's own stomach was actually churning, thinking of the scene in the Compassionate Ning Palace today, she became more and more trembling: "Later, these three hundred or so children were buried generously by the late emperor, and the monument was erected in the White Pagoda Temple for The "Yitong" who died saving the crown prince, so the forest of steles in Baita Temple is also called "Yitong Tomb". I heard that the young prince who was only seven years old in Dingguo's mansion was among them..."

After all, it should be brother Xiao Shu.

It's just that the background is much higher than the current Xiao Shu: after all, apart from being the son of the Xiao family, Dingfei's biological mother is also the sister of Yongyi Hou Yanmu, which is an unprecedented bloodline jointly conceived by two great families.

Although the Qingyuan uncle's mansion has fallen, You Yue has heard about this incident, and it is inevitable to show it off: "Speaking of which, after the loss of her son, Mrs. Yan was heartbroken, so she reconciled with Duke Ding and returned to the Marquis of Yongyi. Mansion, died of illness not long after. Yan and Xiao seem to have no contact with each other after this incident."

Yao Rongrong suddenly said "ah".

She looked very surprised: "Then, Miss Xiao is actually a stepmother?"

"boom!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the half-closed door in front of the hall was pushed open and hit the wall, causing a loud bang, scaring everyone to look back.

It was Xiao Shu standing at the door.

His face was full of stern words like never before, and he only said coldly: "What nonsense are you talking about!"
