Chapter 32: Conspiracy (2-in-1)
The appearance of the old woman gave Pei Min a strange feeling, and the calm on the surface gave him a very terrible sense of depression.
Sorcerer, Sorcery!
According to Pei Min's understanding, this witchcraft is magical and mysterious, and the real principle may be the same as physical chemistry.
In the eyes of the ancients, physical chemistry is a demon magic and magic, and the chemical raw materials refined little by little are fused with each other to form a huge chemical reaction.
People who don't understand these reactions see them as ghost manifestations.
It's like a firearm!
Although gunpowder was invented in the Tang Dynasty, it was the Westerners who really carried it forward.
Although it is ashamed, it is also a historical fact.
In Pei Min's memory, the firearms came from the West during the Ming Dynasty.
At that time, European explorers and merchants wanted to make the most of the benefits in the East, and when the Ming Dynasty first encountered the Western arquebus, the upper and lower levels regarded the musket as a demon and feared it like a tiger.
However, in the subsequent Battle of Xicaowan in Xinhui, Guangdong, the Ming army obtained Western arquebuses from two captured Portuguese ships, and later captured Japanese arquebuses when they captured the Japanese pirates that invaded Shuangyu along the coast of China.
The military bureau of the Ming Dynasty quickly realized the problem, and according to the structure of the arquebus, it was imitated into a bird gun, and the three armies were popularized as quickly as possible.
This is also a correct attitude towards science and technology, during the Ming Dynasty, China's firearms lagged behind the West, but the gap was not large.
The Qing Dynasty became a complete counter-example in this regard, directly leading to the era when firearms were prevalent, and China was still using the oldest bows and arrows......
The so-called Gu technique should be similar.
In later generations, some people also intended to trace the Miao Jiang Gu technique, and put forward a scientific explanation for this: a bold guess that raising Gu is to raise bacteria, some bacteria are harmful to the human body, and some are fatal to the human body, so they are divided into medical Gu and poisonous Gu.
Whether it's true or not, Pei Min doesn't know, and future generations are just guessing.
After all, witchcraft has been lost in later generations, and future generations can only understand it from a few words.
But Pei Min believes that witchcraft is magical, but as long as he understands it deeply, it is by no means as terrifying as he imagined.
If they were really as invincible as they were rumored, they would not be able to become the overlord of the Eastern Land.
But it is undeniable that because people are the same, with false rumors and the imprisonment and restrictions of the ancients' thoughts, people in this era are inexplicably taboo about witchcraft.
Especially in the Imperial Palace, whenever there is a witch Gu thing, it means a bloody storm.
If it weren't for Pei Min's appearance that caused an accident, the current queen would have been deposed because of witch Gu, and Wu Jieyu officially stepped onto the stage of history and began her action of persecuting the prince and the three kings.
The appearance of the witch master also connected with them and connected with them, which was not a good sign in Pei Min's opinion.
In particular, the black hands behind the scenes are likely to involve the temple court.
Pei Min, Gongsun You, and Gongsun Xi sat down again.
Gongsun You's expression was a little melancholy, Gongsun Xi's expression was a little confused, and Pei Min was also thinking about things.
After a while, Pei Min said: "Have you made any substantive discoveries these days, the key is that the mastermind behind the scenes is the imperial court or the people from the rivers and lakes?" ”
Gongsun didn't want to think about it, and replied without hesitation: "It's from the imperial court!" ”
"Are you sure?"
Pei Min asked.
"Sure!"
Gongsun You said helplessly: "This is also the reason why we have not been able to track down the results, not that there are no clues, but that we dare not go deeper." Jianghu people are the most taboo to confront the imperial court, as the saying goes, the arm can't twist the thigh, no matter how strong the momentum of the Qingyu League is, it is impossible to be an enemy of the country. Once a conflict occurs, the results speak for themselves. ”
Pei Min tapped his fingers on the ground and said, "So, can it be sure that Princess Taiping left behind the green dragon?" ”
Gongsun Youxian was surprised, and then thought of the existence of the Zhan family's brothers and sisters, and said with a wry smile: "They still said it." ”
"Don't blame them! They are meant to say! Pei Min covered for the two brothers and sisters, because of their special background, the skills and abilities of their brothers and sisters were particularly valued by Pei Min, and soon after joining the command, they had already begun to carry out tasks, which helped him a lot.
"Actually, I knew a little bit about the situation early on, and I have always been curious about who received Princess Taiping's inheritance. It's just that I'm a foreign minister, so it's inconvenient to investigate. Just right, take this opportunity to figure out this matter. Now that the Zen seal is imminent, the court is calm, and the Tang Dynasty is also thriving. There are really little demons who want to ruin this situation, but they have to pass my level. ”
Pei Min looked at Gongsun Youdao seriously: "What did you find?" ”
Gongsun You hesitated for a moment, and when he saw Pei Min's eyes burning, he knew that he couldn't hide it, so he said helplessly: "I did investigate a little, and now I suspect that the person behind the scenes is Gao Lishi." ”
"What?"
Pei Min looked surprised, surprised, and exhaled in disbelief: "You guys are mistaken, how can it be a high servant?" ”
Gongsun said in a deep voice: "I also hope that I am mistaken, but there are always signs that it is he who is the most likely." ”
She paused and said, "That night when the Ten Tigers attacked, I speculated who might be behind the scenes." The Qingyu League has been controlled, and it rarely causes trouble, and the people in the rivers and lakes also sell us face, there are not many opponents, and even fewer are willing to take the lives of our sisters. And the Liao family is not stupid, and the people behind the scenes give huge rewards. If the people behind the scenes don't have this background, it is impossible to gain trust. ”
"There is capital and strength, and only the Liang family in the East China Sea has this foundation in the rivers and lakes. But the Liang family in the East China Sea has lost face and lost their lining after a fuss with their son, and they have already given up competing with us, so it is unlikely that he will ......"
"In addition to them, there is only a mysterious organization that offended in order to save Uncle Zhan's family. Based on this analysis, I estimate that the other party doesn't care if the Liao family's Ten Tigers' secret attack can succeed, their purpose is not us, but Uncle Zhan. Their main purpose is to force Uncle Zhan to show up by dealing with us. ”
"Through these months of investigation, Colliers has continued to come into our sight. As a result, it is impossible to continue the investigation...... Childe knows best what kind of character Gao Gonggong is. It's really him, and we can't stand him. ”
Gongsun You's words are quite helpless, and the facts are also true.
A Jianghu person, so fighting with Colliers?
Not to mention Gongsun You, even if it is Pei Min, as long as it is not a grievance that cannot be resolved, he is not willing to be an enemy of Gao Lishi.
If this is related to Colliers, the problem is different.
Pei Min frowned, thinking about his visit to Beijing this time, Gao Lishi's overtures and every word and sentence he said.
"We're all the way!"
"You are Your Majesty, Datang is good; Your Majesty is good, everything is fine. ”
Colliers's words are not difficult to understand, and they are also a big truth.
Pei Min cares more about Datang than Li Longji.
And Li Longji, as the ruler of Datang, his goodness means that Datang's goodness.
And Gaolishi is only aimed at Li Longji, as long as Li Longji is good as the emperor, nothing else matters.
The two sides are fundamentally different, but the core is not far apart.
This is also the reason why Colliers said all the way.
What ordinary people say, Pei Min may be a fart for him.
Who wouldn't say such good words of flattery?
An Lushan also said that his loyalty can be learned from heaven and earth.
Song Gaozong and Zhao Gou also said that they had a strong determination to resist Jin.
The devil believed them.
But these words came from Gao Lishi, but Pei Min was convinced.
Because he knows the person of Colliers better than anyone else, and knows the deeds of this old eunuch in his life.
Eunuchs have always been disliked by the world, and those who hear eunuchs instinctively regard them as villains.
But Gao Lishi was evaluated as "the first person to be a virtuous eunuch through the ages".
is also Li Longji's right-hand man, Gao Lishi has always had a friendly attitude towards him Pei Min.
Pei Min also maintains a certain respect for this rare virtuous eunuch in history.
They didn't have any problems with each other, and today Colliers was kind enough to rule out a potential problem for him.
"I don't think it's likely to be Colliers!"
Gongsun Xi, who had not spoken, suddenly interjected.
Pei Min showed a smile of interest and asked curiously, "How can you see it?" ”
Gongsun Xi has a sister, and he rarely uses his own brain, and his brain is also a little chaotic at the moment, and he said hesitantly: "I feel that a person like Gao Lishi really doesn't need to be so troublesome to deal with us, just come directly." ”
Pei Min smiled and praised: "This time I have the same opinion as Miss Xi. ”
Gongsun Xi smiled like a flower when he heard this, and he was quite proud.
Pei Min said and looked at Gongsun Youdao: "This may not be true, it may be misled, or there may be some misunderstanding." You have a close relationship with me, and Gao Nei has known it for a long time. If there is really anything, he will not use such drastic means. Even if you want to use it, you will say hello to me. And with the strength of the high chamberlain, he wants to attack you, and you will not have a chance to resist. He represents the emperor, and at the feet of the Son of Heaven in Chang'an, no force can shake the imperial power. ”
Gongsun Youdao: "So we suspect that Gonggong Gao has done something unspeakable behind the saint's back, and he has other plans, and he has been investigating in this regard." ”
Pei Min shook his head and smiled: "Impossible, you don't know that Gao Neishou will say that." Gao Nei is of the same mind as His Majesty, and he may tell His Majesty some white lies, but he will never betray him, or even control another force without him. You must be mistaken, don't dare to say anything else, you can trust me at this point, Gao Neishou can't be behind the scenes......"
Gongsun You rubbed his head and said with a smile: "You are so sure, you must not be wrong." It's just that I don't understand, who is it if it's not Colliers, why is the final spearhead pointed at Colliers? Did someone frame him? This kind of framing method is too low......"
Pei Min couldn't figure out what was going on for a while, and said, "It's okay, it's a day when foxes always show their tails." You go back and reorganize the intelligence information, remove Colliers, and see if there are any new discoveries. I'll help you look into it too. I want to see which way the cow ghost snake god is so arrogant. ”
"That's all there is to it!" Gongsun You sighed slightly, but thinking that this time was different, he was not alone, and he felt inexplicably relieved in his heart.
Gongsun Xi wanted to speak and stopped, and only after a long time did he say: "I think that old woman still has some ability, how about we threaten the lives of the Ten Tigers and let her treat your injuries?" ”
Pei Min shook his head and said: "This matter is not urgent, this arm can't be moved, it's really in the way, and I'm happy to see if I can recover sooner." Tomorrow, I will find Doctor Liu, and he will help watch it. With a professional on our side, we can rest assured that we don't even know the Tao. ”
Gongsun Xi smiled: "It's still the master who thinks thoughtfully!" ”
"It's getting late, let's rest early! You sleep in the house, don't mind, I'll sleep outside here, right? ”
There was an extremely dangerous character locked up in the house, Pei Min didn't worry about going back to the house to sleep, and he was too tired to talk like this until dawn.
Gongsun You's face changed slightly: "How can it be done?" ”
"Nothing can't be done! That's it! Pei Min waved his hand away from Gongsun Xi beside her, put her sitting on the mat in twos and twos, built a small bed, and lay directly on it and said, "Just bring me a quilt." ”
It's the middle and late autumn season, and the climate in Chang'an is also a little cooler, and you still need a quilt to warm up when you sleep at night.
Seeing that Pei Min was already lying down, Gongsun You had no choice but to follow him, and got a bed quilt for him.
The two sisters saw that Pei Min was sleeping in the hall, and it was not good to stay in the hall for a long time, so they went to the bedroom to rest together.
The two sisters were worried that something would happen again, so they slept in their clothes and lay flat on a couch.
Gongsun Xi suddenly asked, "Sister, you and the master, is there something to hide from me!" ”
……
**********
Chang'an, a palatial mansion!
Lu Qi leisurely looked at the "Three Character Classic" in his hand, and watched it with relish.
The white-clothed boy walked in happily and shouted, "Brother Lu, everything is as you expected, the pear wife in Xiangxi has made a move, but I don't know how they are fighting?" ”
Lu Qi didn't leave the "Three Character Classic", and said leisurely: "Don't have any expectations, Mrs. Pear is not a person with us all the way, and she will not be heavy-handed." She is essentially a doctor, and it is impossible to expect them to fight and lose. In the end, there is only one result, the enemy of the enemy is a friend. Regardless of the process, they have the same purpose, and sooner or later they will work together. ”
The man in white looked at Lu Qi with some complications, and sighed: "Such a terrible layout, only you Lu Qi dare to think about it." ”
Lu Qi smiled: "It's Senior Brother Yuan who is too conservative, doesn't really grasp the definition of this power in your hands, and is too separate from the above. Separation is certainly convenient for us to develop, but it is too slow to develop and the benefits are too small. Instead of taking it one step at a time, it is better to climb to the sky one step at a time. We have to let the above know that his country is not as stable as imagined, and let him understand that he can't do without us. The prince's coming-of-age, Pei Min's betrayal is a wake-up call for him......"
The man in white thought about Lu Qi's layout, and a trace of heat flashed in his eyes.
"When it's done, I'm going to deal with two people!" Lu Qi said suddenly.
"Who!"
"He Zhizhang, Zhang Xu!" A hint of hatred flashed in Lu Qi's eyes.
He submitted an article to He Zhizhang, but the evaluation of the two was useless......
