Chapter Seventy-Three: The Past Comes Back (1) Today starts the double watch, around eight o'clock in the morning and evening, I wish you a happy New Year's Day!

This dynasty believes in Buddhism, in the early years of the country's extensive repair of monasteries, Daxiangguo Temple is the most atmospheric and solemn one outside the capital in the early years. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The temple is built on the mountain, and the main hall is high on the top of the mountain. Along the way, dozens of large and small halls and small halls were arranged to the top of the mountain in turn. In the meantime, the forest and spring are covered, the mountains are beautiful, and the fragrance is like a fairyland.

An official road can lead directly to the top of the mountain, and there are several stone paths under the mountain, and more pilgrims choose to walk up the mountain.

It was far away from the foot of the mountain, and Jiang Li asked Xiao Wu to dismount. When Xiao Wu found a place to tie the horse, he turned around and saw Jiang Li talking happily with himself and a pair of mother and son selling fragrant wax on the side of the road. Jiang Li asked, the mother and son replied a few words, and finally saw that she gave the mother and son a piece of silver, bowed their heads at the mother and son, and smiled. Looking back, the smile on his face was still there.

Xiao Wuxian looked at it coldly, making that smile dazzled. However, after being stunned for a moment, Jiang Li walked up to him and said in a relaxed tone: "The people haven't left yet, but fortunately, we have caught up." The person in Jiang Li's mouth was naturally the one who received the secret letter from Jiang Shizhen back then. It was also the person who came today to hand over the half of the silk paper.

"Who is that man in your mouth?" Xiao Wu couldn't help but be curious.

Jiang Li smiled mysteriously, "You'll know when you see it later." ā€

Her father's letter only asked her to come to Daxiangguo Temple, but he did not clearly specify who he came to see. According to the mother and daughter who sell incense wax at the foot of the mountain, Taiwei Liu in Beijing comes to Daxiangguo Temple to sit in meditation for a day on the fifteenth day of every month. The person Jiang Li was looking for was also about fifteen.

But she believes that the person she wants to see today will not be Mrs. Liu. When my grandfather returned to Beijing for trial, he did have dealings with Liu Taiwei, who served in the Privy Council, and the Privy Council was useless after Qin's power, and the courtiers had to go through the hands of Qin Xiang in advance if they wanted to go to the imperial court. With his little lieutenant, if he really accepted the incriminating evidence about Qin Xiang collected by Jiang Shizhen, I am afraid that he would not live today.

Looking at the people who can make Qin Xiang jealous today, in addition to the emperor of the current dynasty, there is only the emperor's own brother, the eighth prince Zhao Frame.

She found someone to understand the history of this dynasty: Zhao Ji, the current emperor of this dynasty, was originally the seventh son of the previous emperor, and was named the king of Chu in his early years.

At that time, the crown prince lost power in a struggle for power with a group of brothers, and it is said that he died of illness after being exiled. Several of the prince's other brothers were also killed or wounded in the battle, and one of the wounded became monks.

The first emperor couldn't bear to see his sons kill each other, and after selecting the king of Chu as the crown prince, he gave each of the remaining two sons a gold medal to avoid death in front of the courtiers, and asked the prince at that time to swear to treat the two brothers well after succeeding to the throne.

After the king of Chu became the emperor, according to the last order of the emperor, he treated the two brothers with courtesy, crowned the prince, rewarded the land and money mansion. On the other hand, he slowly relieved himself of the powers of the two pro-dynasties and secretly monitored their actions. The two princes have been idle princes for a few years, one died of illness, and the remaining one is the most kind and amiable eighth prince.

A few years later, the emperor pushed his advisers when he was the king of Chu to the position of prime minister, and relieved him to hold the power of the court and politics in his hands, and he was happy to linger in the harem, and later indulged in calligraphy and painting, and was even more neglectful of the government. The adviser of the king of Chu in the past was the Qin minister of the current dynasty.

Therefore, after Qin was in power, he could cover the sky with one hand above the court, but only give three points to the eighth prince Zhao Frame. And the eighth prince Zhao Xiang seems to be knowledgeable, and he easily does not oppose the Qin Mansion, and he has never confided half of his dissatisfaction with Qin Xiang to the outside world. This kind of behavior naturally made a large group of loyal ministers who were not angry with Qin Xiang die, but it also made Qin Xiang let down his guard against Zhao Xiang.

After Jiang Li inquired that it was Taiwei Liu who came to Daxiangguo Temple today, he first thought of the eighth prince Zhao Jiao. Liu Taiwei has always been close to the Eighth Prince, and it is very likely that it is the Eighth Prince Zhao Frame who can let his grandfather entrust him with such an important letter and be called a noble person by his father.

All of this is just her speculation, how can she say it to Xiao Wu. So in the face of Xiao Wu's question, she could only smile.

With the bottom in his heart, Jiang Li's steps were brisk, and he took a step ahead and climbed the stairs.

The battle of Luo Fengpo just now really made her frightened, thinking that the half of the silk paper on her body was very important, and the unconscious and ignorant were obviously instructed by Qin Yuanhua, but I was afraid that the news of the ignorance and unconsciousness of death had not yet reached Qin Yuanhua, and when Qin Yuanhua reacted, the silk paper in her hand had been handed over to that person, and she would be considered a complete merit. The rest is not something she can worry about.

Xiao Wu hurried to catch up, and Jiang Li held on to the railing next to the trail and gasped slightly. Xiao Wu stopped and waited very gracefully, looking around vigilantly, with a cold expression.

Thinking that Xiao Wuyi and the others had taken such a big risk for their sister and brother, Jiang Li was still a little weak-hearted. Thinking that if she said more good things, she would not die, so she breathed a sigh of relief and said sincerely, "Thank you so much today." ā€

Xiao Wu's expression was cold: "We fought so much, more than a dozen people were injured, and we rescued your two sisters and brothers from the tiger's mouth, just in exchange for you to say thank you?" ā€

Jiang Li blinked, wanting to say a few cruel words as usual, after all, it was true that he was favored by others, so his tone couldn't be tough. Pretending to be relaxed, he said: "It's too light to say thank you, why don't I go to Qianqiufang another day to set up a few tables, prepare a little gift, and make a special trip to thank your brothers and Miss Qiushuang?" ā€

"How many boxes are Bo Gift?" Xiao Wu raised his eyebrows, as if he was interested.

Jiang Li flicked his sleeves and continued to climb up, snorting coldly, "Want to be beautiful?" How many more boxes are there? It's because I understand etiquette, and I think about the number of etiquette to be repaid for my kindness, and it's just a little meaningful. It's a big deal to pay a few dozen taels of silver per person, so you should invite your brothers to drink. ā€

Xiao Wu snorted coldly: "It's really the nature of a profiteer." Hacked more than 50 boxes of us, and we didn't even want to spit out a box! My brothers are busy with each other, and a few dozen taels of silver will be sent away? Just now, he saw her make a move, and gave a few taels of silver to the mother and son who sold incense wax on the roadside.

Talking about Qian Jiangli's regained his slippery temperament, he said coldly: "If I don't invite it, I can say it." No, even you admit it yourself, the reason why you saved our sister and brother was because I was worried that the evidence in my hand would fall into the hands of the surnamed Qin. Let's just use each other, how can it be as if I owe you a favor, and still want to carry a box back from my hand, dream. ā€

Xiao Wu squinted behind him with a look of disgust, and against the backdrop of the green mountains, it was clear that she was a beautiful and dusty beautiful woman, but she had a miser tone when she spoke, which made him who was noble and couldn't bear to look at it directly.

couldn't help shaking his head and sighing: "I really don't know what the Jiang family has become poor, making you a young lady busy calculating all day long." It's okay to connive at the smuggling of people under your hands, knowing that we are bandits and dare to extort again and again, either poor and crazy or really obsessed with money. I really don't know how Jiang Zongjin, who is an upright official, can have such a daughter as you! ā€

Jiang Li raised his eyebrows and smiled lightly, "I was poor and scared in my last life, and it is good to be a miser in this life." The mountain breeze stroked her black hair, and she smiled calmly, "Whether you call me poor and crazy, or say that I stink of copper, as long as you don't count about taking it back from me, I don't mind what you say." ā€

Xiao Wuyi choked on his chest and smiled bitterly: "How did I forget, in front of people like you, we are only worthy of being fourth-class robbers." ā€

The mountain in front of him turned, and suddenly opened up in front of him, and a magnificent hall appeared in front of the two of them. (To be continued.) )
