The emperor sat on a chair, surrounded by the second prince Li Zongping, Su Wen, and two men who Su Wen felt strange.

The feeling that these two men gave Su Wen was that there was vitality hidden in their bodies, and every step and every step also exuded the breath of a master, presumably they were masters in the palace.

According to Su Wen's observation, the strength of these two people is much worse than that of Han Li of Sanhemen, but they are not just masters of martial arts.

Just by looking at the calluses on their tiger mouths, you know that the two of them had better be proficient in firearms. And as two people, the security work must also be outstanding.

The two of them are strong in this kind of comprehensive and comprehensive, not just martial arts.

Opposite the few people, they were tied to a chair, and their eyes were covered with dust.

"Jingchen, why did you kill the prince? It was another man who spoke, a man with glasses, a pale-skinned and somewhat weak looking man, a master of torture.

This is Shi Changqing's own choice. Jingchen said indifferently, as if he was not being interrogated.

"If it weren't for your demagogy, how could Shi Changqing attack the prince?"

I just planted a seed in his heart, and as for what kind of buds and flowers the seed will produce depends on what kind of soil it has. Flowers and plants do not always grow on stones, but flowers and plants grow on the soil where the corpses are buried. Jingchen laughed.

"Nonsense. The torturer said. Turning his head to look at the emperor, he saw that the emperor nodded, picked up a needle and pricked it in the neck of Jingchen and pushed it in, and inside was scopolamine, which is the so-called truth spitting agent.

Under normal circumstances, torture would not use this method, and that does not show his skills.

But at this time, the emperor was not in the mood to wait for him to interrogate slowly, and the emperor wanted to hear everything from Jingchen now.

One hour, the emperor walked out of the prison with a gloomy face and rode back to the imperial city with two escorts.

Although the pure dust was injected with a true spitting agent, it had no effect. Su Wen had already guessed that such a method would not have any effect, so it was not surprising.

The next thing waiting for the clean dust is the real torture. However, in terms of effect, Su Wen is not hopeful.

It is difficult for even a trained ordinary person to pry his mouth open, let alone clean the dust.

Under Li Zongping's arrangement, a car sent Suwen back to Jiming Mountain.

Here he waited for the emperor's choice.

If there is no progress in the torture after a few days, it depends on whether the emperor wants to vent his anger by cutting the pure dust with a thousand knives, or whether he will try it in his own way.

Su Wen guess is the second type. Only Jingchen was cut by a thousand knives, and the emperor could not accept it no matter what.

Now he just has to wait.

In the night, Su Wen went to Jiming Mountain and rested on the mountain.

Su Wen was closed for the next two days, during which Xu Le and Liu Xiangdong both came to visit, but they didn't see Su Wen, but they visited Dao Yan and expressed their gratitude.

At the same time, Xu Le still walked with the Buddhist scriptures, and after seeing his appearance, he began to turn his interest to religion after this incident.

As if he had discovered something new and interesting, religion was much more interesting to him at this time than it was to solve crimes and capture the criminals.

On the third day, Su Wen came out of his room and went straight to the Imperial City.

"That pure dust is what you call a descendant of Bo Xun, the great enemy of Buddhism?" the emperor fell silent after saying this.

In addition to the emperor in the palace at this time, there is only Su Wen.

"Not bad. Su Wen nodded.

"Why didn't you say it last time?"

"It's because of who they are that they shouldn't do something like this, it's not good for them. Unless someone negotiated conditions with them, they had no reason to do anything to the prince.

The poor monk wants to know who they are, and His Majesty wants to know who is behind them.

The poor monk cares about the knife, and His Majesty cares about the hand with the knife.

Therefore, it does not matter whether or not to tell the origin and origin of the knife. Su Wen shook his head.

He didn't know who told the emperor about this, and the other party's purpose was probably to stir the Buddha into this troubled water.

At this time, the most motivated people to do this kind of thing are two people, one is the hand behind the back, and the other is Taoism.

It's easy to understand that the hand behind the back wants to stir the Buddha door in.

As for Taoism, the crown prince they supported was dead, and from any point of view, they had a motive to do it.

However, the other party may think about this matter too simply. Does the other party think that as long as there is a little connection, His Majesty will be angry?

Su Wen thought about it, with the state of the emperor, if there is no good explanation, it is really possible.

The emperor was silent for a long time before he said: "You go and see the queen first, she is not in good health these days, you enlighten her." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. Su Wen retired, and after going out, he ran into the second prince at the door.

"Master, where are you going?" the second prince asked enthusiastically.

"I've seen Your Highness, and the poor monk went to see the Queen. Su asked the haltene.

"Then don't bother the master. The second prince, Li Zongping, hurriedly said.

Su Wen smiled, said goodbye and left for a distance before shaking his head slightly.

He already felt that the attitude of the second prince in the past two days had changed a little from before. Although the same enthusiasm, but less sincere.

It's easy to understand.

He used to need Buddhist support, but now he doesn't.

Although he still wants to suppress Buddhism, he needs to maintain a certain balance and will no longer fully support Buddhism as he has previously expressed.

To put it simply, the location has changed.

Seeing the somewhat haggard queen in the palace, Su Wen chatted with her for a while, and talked about some Buddhist scriptures, and left when the queen was a little sleepy.

As soon as he left, a guard came to him and said that the emperor wanted to see him.

Su Wen walked on the road and thought about it, and it should be because of that sentence that he called himself in the morning. But there shouldn't be any problem after being pushed by yourself.

Then let yourself go now, I'm afraid it's just as I think, there is nothing to be gained from torture and purification, and the emperor has already made up his mind.

Seeing the emperor again this time is no longer the side hall of the palace with the prince's coffin.

This time, the palace was brightly lit, and the emperor's haggard face and gray hair were really on display.

This is an old man who has lived less than two years.

After this incident, I am afraid it will be shorter than expected.

"Master Suwen, can you assure me that everything is safe?" the Emperor asked, sitting on it.

Su Wen thought for a while, shook his head and said, "The poor monk doesn't dare to guarantee it, but he will do his best to ensure that there will be no problems." If there is a real case, the poor monk will kill Jingchen and will not let him leave alive. ”

The emperor nodded: "Just do what you said, send Jingchen to the Pure Heart Temple, and I will arrange people." ”

"There should not be too many people, at most three or five people. Su Wen said.

After all, it is uncertain whether the other party will really come to save Jingchen and when to save Jingchen. If there are too many people, it is easy to be noticed.

"Just as you said. The emperor decided on the spot.

This is Su Wen's plan, if Jingchen is in prison, the other party may not save Jingchen. No one dared to save countless guns, not even the Sword Immortal.

But if it's in the Pure Heart Temple, that's not necessarily the case. Either way, it's just a monastery. Su Wen felt that if he was the other party, even if he knew that he would definitely be prepared, and the word "trap" was clearly written, he would definitely be moved.

The other party didn't know what kind of place the demon suppression tower in the temple was.

As long as they go to the tower to save the dust, then Su Wen will be sure to leave them behind.

Please enter the urn? Su asked, I hope I can get it.
