Chapter 824: Wu Mingkong wants to enter the palace?

"Father, wronged, I'm telling the truth" Hearing Li Xiu say that he didn't tell the truth, this made Li Jin immediately shout for himself, and there was also a aggrieved expression on his little face, which really made people not see half a fake.

"Do you know the truth, don't play tricks in front of me, otherwise I'll leave this matter to your mother to deal with!" Li Xiu didn't pay attention to Li Jin's words at all, but glared at him again and said, as a father, he knows better than anyone else the ghost eyes of his son.

As soon as he heard that Li Xiu was going to hand himself over to his mother, Princess Pingyang, Li Jin's little face immediately collapsed, he was not afraid of heaven and earth, but he was only afraid of Princess Pingyang, because Princess Pingyang was very strict with him, plus he was naughty, he was beaten and punished since he was a child, but he was honest since he was a child, and he had a long memory after a few beatings.

"Father, mother is still pregnant with her younger brother, don't bother her with this kind of trivial matter, if you want to hear the truth, I just say it." Li Jin inherited Li Xiu's cheekiness, and immediately showed a flattering smile and begged for mercy.

"Haha~, your kid is not very old, but he has a lot of eyes, but it's no wonder, after all, your father has more eyes, and your father and son are really similar!" Ma Ye saw that Li Jin really didn't tell the truth, not only was he not angry at the moment, but laughed and pointed at Li Xiu's father and son.

Hearing Ma Ye's words, Li Xiu had no way to refute it, and finally could only look at Li Jin again and ask him to tell the truth quickly, Li Jin also knew that he couldn't hide it at this time, so he had to speak again at the moment: "Actually, the reason why I burned the Inspiration Temple was mainly because of Mingkong." ”

"That girl from the martial arts? How could the Temple of Inspiration provoke her? Ma Ye couldn't help but be surprised when he heard Li Jin's words, Wu Mingkong is the second daughter of Wu Shi Tong, and he is also one of Li Xiu's students, even her name was given by Li Xiu, Li Jin also grew up with him since childhood, although the two often quarrel, but the relationship is very good, these Ma Ye also know, but the Wu family had an accident some time ago, and Wu Mingkong also had a difficult trip to the house, so he was a little strange.

"Wasn't Mingkong's father sick some time ago, so he went back to Chang'an to recuperate, but his father was very sick, and even the imperial doctor in the palace was useless, and it happened that Mingkong's mother believed in Buddhism, so she went around to worship Buddha and burn incense in the temple, and the monk of the Inspiration Temple was uneasy and kind, and he actually bewitched Mingkong's mother to do one thing......"

Although Li Jin is young, he speaks very methodically, and he immediately told the reason for the matter, it turned out that "Li Yuan" died some time ago, although it was a fake, but only Li Xiu and Pei Lin knew about this matter, and in addition, everyone in the world thought that Li Yuan was really dead.

In addition to the assistance of Li Shimin's brothers, there are also a number of capable ministers, and among these ministers, many of them are Li Yuan's friends in Taiyuan, such as Pei Lin is one of the representatives, and there is also an old friend that Li Yuan trusts very much, that is, Wu Mingkong's father, Wu Shitong.

Although Wu Shi Tong was born as a businessman, but he was extremely talented, when Li Yuan was in power, Wu Shi Tong once held the post of the Ministry of Works, and also had the right to control the six departments, and his personal relationship with Li Yuan was also excellent, Wu Shi Tong's original wife died early, so Li Yuan personally told him to match, took Wu Mingkong's mother Yang, the wedding money was from the treasury, and even Li Yuan also rewarded Wu Shi Tong with the privilege of avoiding death once for a crime, which shows Li Yuan's favor to Wu Shi Tong.

It's a pity that after the Xuanwumen Incident, Li Shimin ascended the throne as the emperor, and the old courtiers before Li Yuan naturally wanted to give way to the new ministers, and even Pei Lin took the initiative to resign, and Wushi Tong was naturally suppressed, so he was transferred to Lizhou as the governor.

However, Wu Shi Tong is indeed talented, after taking office in Lizhou, he will soon be in good order in Lizhou, especially after having corn and sweet potatoes These high-yield crops, although the land in Lizhou is not good, but for several years of bumper grain harvest, and he also recruited fugitives from the mountains, which greatly increased the population of Lizhou, and finally Li Shimin also had a sense of admiration for Wu Shi Tong, so he promoted him to the governor of Jingzhou, although they are all governors, but Jingzhou is much richer than Lizhou.

Originally, with the talent of Wu Shi Tong, maybe it is really possible to be transferred back to Chang'an in the future, but unfortunately the news of Li Yuan's death some time ago reached Jingzhou, Wu Shi Tong heard that his old friend died, and he was also grief-stricken at the moment, and finally he couldn't afford to be ill, Li Shimin was also very shocked when he heard the news, and at the same time thought of Wu Shi Tong's great achievements when he served in the local area, so he specially issued an edict to let Wu Shi Tong return to Chang'an to recuperate.

Li Xiu had also visited Wu Shi Tong before, after all, he had some friendship with Wu Shi Tong before, but at that time he found that Wu Shi Tong was very ill, and he was tired of even talking to him, Wu Mingkong had been staying at home with his father during this time, and he didn't even have time to go to Li Xiu's side to study.

Seeing that the samurai was so sick and showed no signs of improvement, Yang, who believed in Buddhism, naturally worshiped the Buddha and burned incense everywhere, hoping to make her husband's health better with the help of the ethereal power of the gods and Buddhas.

Although the Inspiration Temple does many illegal things among the people, the monks in the temple are very discerning, using the money gathered, plus some small means, it is easy to package some monks in the temple as "profound Buddhism" monks, but also walk among the nobles, as a result, women like Yang in the courtyard of the deep house are still convinced of them.

One of the most famous monks in the Inspiration Temple is called "Lingyin", Yang also has great respect for this spiritual seal, and donates a large number of property to the temple every year.

Originally, this spirit seal was nothing more than to defraud the Yang family of a little money, and the martial arts family would not care, let alone provoke Wu Mingkong, but this time the spirit seal didn't know what medicine he had taken wrong, and he actually told the Yang family after the ceremony, saying that Wu Shi Tong and Wu Mingkong were destined to fight each other, and this time Wu Mingkong also started because of Wu Mingkong, and if you want to make Wu Mingkong's illness better, the only way is to marry Wu Mingkong.

Yang is actually a very shrewd woman, but she is confused by religion, although she is still a little suspicious of Wu Mingkong's illness Wu Shitong, after all, Wu Mingkong is her biological daughter, but now Wu Mingkong is almost twelve years old, and it is not for nothing that a Tang woman marries at the age of twelve, and even if she doesn't marry, she can get engaged now, after all, girls have to marry sooner or later.

It is precisely because of this that the Yang family has been looking for a suitable husband for Wu Mingkong some time ago, and Wu Mingkong was also very angry when he found out, but she knew that her mother was confused by people like Lingyin, and it was probably useless to say anything, but she was not a fuel-efficient lamp, she designed it secretly, and when Lingyin went to Wufu again, she was teased by Wu Mingkong and lost a lot of face.

It's a pity that Wu Mingkong is still too young after all, after he played with the spirit seal, he was hated by the spirit seal, so he told the Yang family again that Wu Mingkong's numerology is very hard, I'm afraid that the general husband's family is not worthy of her at all, and marrying out will kill the husband's family, the only way is to send Wu Mingkong to the palace as a concubine, and only the royal family can suppress Wu Mingkong's numerology.

Wu Mingkong originally just wanted to teach Lingyin a small lesson, so that he didn't talk nonsense, after all, she didn't want to get married so early, but she didn't expect Lingyin to become even more violent, encouraging her mother to send her to the palace, although the concubine of the palace is extremely noble, but she has studied with Li Xiu since she was a child, and naturally knows the situation of the concubines in the palace, even if the favored concubine is lost, if she loses favor in the future, she will become a widow, and the intrigue in the palace is extremely vicious, and if you are not careful, you may take your life.

In fact, the palace of the Tang Dynasty is relatively good, after all, there is the pressure of the eldest grandson, and the relationship between the concubines in the palace is relatively harmonious, but Li Xiu is worried that Wu Mingkong will follow the old path in her original history, so he has been instilling in her the darkness in the palace, telling stories such as Zhen Huanzhuan and palace scheming, so that naturally the young Wu Mingkong regards the palace as a demon cave, but now that spirit seal actually encouraged his mother Yang to send her into the palace, which naturally made Wu Mingkong angry and angry.

However, Wu Mingkong is only a little girl less than twelve years old after all, Wu Shi Tong has lost power before, and his influence in Chang'an is not great, and he can't teach Lingyin a lesson, so he can't think about his anger, Li Jin went to visit Wu Mingkong the day before yesterday, and only then did he hear her talk about it, which made Li Jin also extremely angry, so he took advantage of the reason for bullying others in the Inspiration Temple, and set fire to the Inspiration Temple, and also took advantage of the chaos to find the spirit seal, and personally beat the other party half to death to relieve his hatred.

"That's the way it is, but this matter has nothing to do with Mingkong, I decided to burn down the Inspiration Temple by myself, and she didn't know about it in advance!" Li Jin finally spoke again.

"Don't know?" Li Xiu looked at Li Jin in front of him but showed an inscrutable smile, and after a while, he spoke to Li Jin again, "You go and bring Mingkong to see me!" ”

"Father, didn't I say it has nothing to do with Mingkong?" Seeing that Li Xiu was going to call Wu Mingkong, Li Jin was also a little anxious at the moment.

"Whether Mingkong knows about this matter or not, it is all because of her, so you just have to call her!" Li Xiu said with a blank face at this time, the reason why he called Wu Mingkong naturally had his reasons.

Seeing Li Xiu's face so serious, Li Jin didn't dare to say anything, so he had to nod his head and agree, and then rode on his horse and galloped away, and when he left, he saw Ma Ye stroking his beard at this time and said: "Boy, none of these children in your family are fuel-efficient lamps!" ”

Li Xiu also smiled bitterly when he heard this, but he didn't say anything, but at this time, Ma Ye suddenly thought of something, and smiled again at the moment: "Jin'er burned the Inspiration Temple, I estimate that some people will be troubled to the court tomorrow, and then you may have to go to the court to go to the court!" ”
