Chapter 684: The Bodhisattva Comes Forward
Chunxiao didn't dare to ask, and the urn replied angrily, looked left and right, and ran to a tree not far away to stay.
He Linwan stepped up the steps in front of the hall, took two steps and stepped on a cylindrical piece of wood under her feet, but fortunately she walked steadily, looked down and gently kicked the wood away. When I was about to push open the temple door, I found that there were still some barbs on the red paint peeling off the door.
He Linwan glanced at the Guanyin Palace, which really needed to be repaired, opened the door and walked in, then turned around and closed the door again.
Because the doors and windows of the temple were closed, it was very dim. Although there was still an oil lamp burning on the offering, because the main hall was very large and empty, the faint light was only enough to illuminate the square inch of land under the Bodhisattva's feet.
He Linwan faintly saw a figure behind the yellow curtain behind the Buddha statue, and her figure was similar to Li Yu's, and she walked behind the curtain while casually asking, "Didn't you ask me to come?" What are you doing hiding behind-"
Before He Linwan could finish speaking, he suddenly raised his foot and kicked towards the figure behind the curtain without warning, and the figure didn't seem to expect her to make a move, so she was kicked and fell to the ground with a muffled grunt.
He Linwan casually took a piece of incense on the offering table, lifted the curtain and walked in, put the incense in his hand next to his left ear before the man wanted to get up, and said casually: "I just learned a trick to kill people by piercing the ear, do you want to try it?"
The man was obedient and didn't dare to move anymore, but just raised his head to look at He Linwan and asked, "How do you know it's not him?"
He Linwan also looked down at him in the dim light, although this person was a little embarrassed to be held hostage by her at the moment, but his expression was as calm as ever, only his eyes showed a little helplessness.
"Who is he?" He Linwan tilted his head and said with a smile, "Besides me, you are not the only one here, Mu Gongzi?"
When He Linwan stepped on the steps, he knew that the person who called her was not Li Yu, and with Li Yu's carefulness and thoughtfulness, even if he found a place in disrepair to meet her, he would not leave any wood that could be accidentally slipped in the place where she might pass, and there would be no barbs on the closed door.
But this person asked her out in such a way, and he expected her to appear, and it was very likely that he would know something about her and Li Yu. So He Linwan only hesitated for a moment, and then pushed the door in. Although it is a bit risky, but today Baoan Temple is full of people, it is impossible to ambush too many people in this small Guanyin Temple, and since Li Yu said that he will come to see him today, he will definitely send someone to follow him.
It's just that He Linwan didn't expect that waiting for her in the Guanyin Hall was Mu Zhizhen, who had not been seen for a long time.
"You know who I'm talking about. Mu Zhizhen said in a firm tone.
"I don't know what dumb riddle Mu Gongzi is playing with me, if you have something to say, you might as well say it directly. My family, starting with my father, has been rough for three generations, and his patience is not very good. He Linwan smiled and played with the incense in his hand, and the sharp incense tail almost poked Mu Zhizhen's eyes several times.
Mu Zhizhen glanced at the incense, although it didn't look like a dangerous item, but in the hands of a person with martial arts, anything could become a weapon to kill.
"I came to Miss He today, and I have no ill intentions. Mu Zhizhen looked at He Linwan and softened his tone, "I don't know if I can put down this incense and let's talk well?"
He Linwan smiled at Mu Zhizhen, and then said ruthlessly: "No." How do I know if what you say sounds good or not, if it doesn't......"
He Linwan glanced at the "murder weapon" in his hand, and the implication was obvious.
Mu Zhizhen couldn't help but smile bitterly, but he didn't say anything more, he simply raised his hand to show that he was harmless, then adjusted his posture and sat cross-legged in place, "What you want to say is a bit long, please allow me to change to a more comfortable sitting position." ”
He Linwan glanced at him, this person deserved to be a young man who became famous, and Mu Zhizhen, who made a high-minded and arrogant person like Li Yu also a confidant. Not to mention anything else, this bearing is really good, Fan Yun's grandson Fan Liangbi, who was carefully cultivated at the beginning, is far inferior to standing in front of Mu Zhizhen.
Mu Zhizhen found a comfortable posture before he spoke: "I guess you also know that after the Shangyuan Festival, the long ...... Li Yu is going to send Chunyang to get married. ”
He Linwan said a little impatiently: "This is not something that everyone in the capital knows? Why don't you make a long story short? What are you looking for me for?" ”
Mu Zhizhen wanted to take something from his sleeve pocket, but as soon as he moved, he remembered that he was still being held hostage, so he raised his head and asked He Linwan sincerely: "Can I take something?"
"Please. He Linwan didn't care, "Even if you make any changes, I can make you a dead person in an instant, so I'm not afraid of you moving." ”
Mu Zhizhen twitched the corners of his mouth, and then took out a piece of paper from his sleeve pocket and handed it to He Linwan.
He Linwan took it with one hand, opened it and looked at it, and found that it was a hand-drawn map, which was very simple, but the important roads of mountains and rivers were clearly marked, and people could recognize it at a glance as a map of the Gyeonggi area. The map is ordinary, nothing special, only in a few locations, deliberately marked with conspicuous cinnabar.
"What is this?treasure map?" He Linwan asked after reading it at a glance, raising his eyes.
"The several places marked with cinnabar are the ambush locations set by Daji on the day of Li Yu's wedding. Mu Zhizhen said seriously.
He Linwan frowned when she heard this, crumpled the paper into a ball casually, and threw it back into Mu Zhizhen's arms, "This kind of confidential matter, you don't have to tell me to know, you can take it yourself." ”
Mu Zhizhen caught the paper ball, rubbed it for a while, and smiled bitterly again: "You don't believe me." Well, I've done what I had to do, believe it or not. ”
He Linwan looked at him and couldn't help but ask curiously: "As far as I know, aren't your Mu family already turning against the Jin Palace?
Mu Zhizhen did not immediately answer He Linwan's words. He unfolded the mass of paper in his hand, smoothed it carefully, stared at it, and then tore it to pieces little by little, until it was too broken to put it back together, and then he put the scraps back into his sleeve pocket.
"The other day, I went to see my grandfather. Mu Zhizhen lowered his head and said slowly, "During this time, he has always been guarded by people sent by the palace, and it is difficult for me to see him." This time, the palace did not stop me from seeing him. Probably they know that this time we will see our ancestors and grandchildren for the last time. ”
He Linwan was stunned when he heard this, "Your grandfather ......"
"I have been asleep since he saw me that day, and I went to a familiar imperial doctor to inquire about my condition, and the imperial doctor said that he had been an old man for a few days. ”
