Chapter 11 Troubles and Fortunes
Tang Ying asked, "What should I do next?" This monster is extremely cunning, and its sorcery seems to be even stronger. If he wanted to hide his tracks, we wouldn't find him. ”
Di Renjie said: "Don't worry. I asked Lord Siqing of Dali Temple to send manpower to start from the bank of the Luoshui River. ”
Under Di Renjie's deployment, fishermen and officers and soldiers were arranged to jointly reconnoiter the river in the middle and lower reaches of Luoshui, and a large number of caves were indeed seen. But there is no clue at all, only a variety of rotten rhizomes that make it impossible to tell whether it is natural or artificial. Days passed, and the officials found nothing.
Tang Ying was busy supervising the reconstruction of the palace at first, but seeing that everything was on the right track, she couldn't bear to go to Dali Temple to find Di Renjie.
Di Renjie was also at a loss at this time, and he was already sleepy and tired of exploring Dali Temple for days. What's more serious is that there are still people who continue to go to the government to report the disappearance of their relatives, and everyone in Luoyang City is in danger for a while.
At the beginning of July, news came from Chang'an that Empress Wu ordered the execution of the eldest grandson Wuji and Liu Zheng. When Tang Ying heard the news, she remembered the situation when the eldest grandson Wuji picked her up and jumped off the high platform and the promise she made with Liu Zheng in the Lizheng Palace, and she felt very uncomfortable. Although they are stumbling blocks on the road to Wu Mei's hegemony, they are not guilty of death.
Tang Ying is a person of the 21st century, and he has been educated equally by everyone since he was a child. Although it is impossible to achieve absolute equality in modern times, human life is definitely not so easy to say no. She didn't know what it was that made Wu Mei lose her mind, and she couldn't wait to put on her wings and fly back to stop Wu Mei. However, after thinking about it, maybe it was because he was afraid that she would stop her, so he deliberately arranged for her to come to Luoyang.
Tang Ying opened the small porcelain vase he carried close to him, and rummaged through the historical memorabilia he had written when he first crossed over, but there was no record of who else had died in the past two years. She racked her brains to recall the history books, but found that she couldn't remember anything else except the ancient life that had been recorded for many years.
The eldest grandson Wuji, who held power, was annihilated in the long river of history. In all fairness, if he really wants to put Wu Mei to death, it is not completely impossible, for example, if he insists on not letting Wu Mei be called, will things take a turn for the better? What kind of impact did his appearance have on him?
It was difficult to sleep at night, Tang Ying knocked on Li Chunfeng's door with wine. She has something on her mind, Li Chunfeng can see it at a glance, but she is not in a hurry to ask, just quietly drinks with her.
After three rounds of drinking, two clouds of glow red stained the upper cheeks, coupled with the blurry and drunken beautiful eyes and a wisp of sadness shrouded in the eyebrows, Tang Ying looked more beautiful than before. Li Chunfeng took the wine glass in her hand, and Wen Yan asked, "Just say the worries, and you and I will share them together." ”
Tang Ying bit his lip, suddenly stretched his face in front of him and said, "If I tell you that Eldest Sun Wuji and they died because of me, do you believe it or not?" Li Chunfeng was taken aback and said with a smile: "Shadow, you drank too much." Their deaths were all power struggles, and if they weren't for their opposition to the emperor, they wouldn't have come to this point. Looking at all dynasties, how can there not be some people who have failed in the struggle? Don't take it to heart. ”
Tang Ying shook his head, stubbornly snatched the wine glass and drank it all. How could she tell him that if she hadn't traveled to the Tang Dynasty by herself, if she hadn't gone to Ganye Temple to find Wu Mei on a whim, and told Wu Mei the opportunity to return to the palace, would she still be able to take the first step into the palace? If she hadn't escorted Wu Mei all the way, she would have died a long time ago, and she would not have staged the decline of the five major families that were fought against this time.
Could it be that Wu Mei's life is really more important than so many lives? Was she the right decision? If, wouldn't it be better to let Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang kill Wu Mei? She had a splitting headache and couldn't help herself in tears.
Li Chunfeng put his arm around her shoulders, pressed her tightly to his chest, and asked gently, "What happened?" Tell me if you can't bear it? I'll take care of everything for you! ”
Tang Ying cried and said, "No...... I can't say. Li Chunfeng lifted his chin lightly with his fingers and made her look at herself, "Shadow, you are mine...... Wife. Lovers should share weal and sorrow. I have the responsibility to help you solve all the difficulties you are encountering now. Come, tell me. You also know that I'm not an ignorant or cautious person, and I'll do it. ”
Tang Ying choked and couldn't speak, stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around his neck, and happily cried to vent the pressure of keeping secrets all these years.
After a while, when she calmed down, she stared straight at Li Chunfeng with big bright eyes. As soon as the words come out, it is possible to gain his understanding and liberate himself; But it is also likely to arouse his strong disgust and destroy their already troubled relationship...... None of this is conclusive. Is she going to take this risk?
Seeing her hesitation, Li Chunfeng gently kissed away her rolling tears and encouraged: "Tell me, don't be afraid." ”
Tang Ying asked her heart, and her heart told her that she wanted to confess to Li Chunfeng, and she believed that Li Chunfeng could understand her. So she said seriously: "Chunfeng...... If, let me tell you, I am what Yuan Tiangang said about 'the demon girl who disrupted the fortunes of the country'...... Will you still like me? ”
Li Chunfeng was stunned for a moment, "What? What does it have to do with Brother Yuan? ”
Tang Ying's whole heart tugged, and she said worriedly: "Ten years ago, when Wu Mei was in Ganye Temple, I met her. ”
Li Chunfeng breathed a sigh of relief and burst out laughing, "Yes." I know, I asked you back then. At that time, Mrs. Tang took you to seek Buddha, right? ”
Tang Ying shook his head, tightened his mouth, and took a deep breath before saying, "It's me...... Took you for a ride. Actually, it was Wu Mei who I took the initiative to find, and it was I who told her that Emperor Li Zhi would go to Ganye Temple on the day of Taizong's death and let her ...... Get ready to go back to the palace. ”
After Li Chunfeng heard this, his eyes widened, and he unconsciously let go of his hand holding Tang Ying.
"How...... How can it be? He muttered incredulously, "At that time, you were only seven years old?" Even if you know the emperor's itinerary from Tang Wenjing, how do you know about Wu Mei's relationship with him? ”
Tang Ying wanted to grab his hand, but he subconsciously dodged it, just looking at her with unfamiliar eyes, as if he was looking at some incomprehensible creature.
It's over, it's all over. The night wind blew, blowing away the heat of Tang Ying's body, leaving only cold.
She smiled sadly and said to Li Chunfeng: "You said you can understand. But there are still a lot of incredible things on shijie, which you can't say clearly. ”
Li Chunfeng was stunned for a long time, remembering Tang Ying's early wisdom and maturity inadvertently revealed when he was a child, and guessed in a dry voice: "Could it be that you are a prophet?" She will return to the harem, you have already divined? He himself launched the fortune of China for thousands of years, and it is natural to think of this possibility.
