Chapter 812: The Sisters Are Unusual (Part II)
Li Jing actually did not differ from what he thought in his heart, which simply made Yang Guang a little dumbfounded: "How could you have thought that the mind master could be a great bodhisattva?" On what basis? ”
"Lord Wang, the last general guessed this result from the king's fate issued by the prince to the last general. Dozens of days ago, the last general was ordered to go to eastern Zhejiang to pick up the daughter of the heart when the dust went north, he had doubts about the identity of the heart, not long ago the prince passed the king's order again, and the end of the order was changed to escort the dust back to Dongjiao City, and it is expected that there will be robbers halfway robbery, which makes the last general have doubts about the true identity of the dust.
In the past, the general had asked Zhang Changshi for advice on the details of the case of the prince who had lured him to surrender and broke Nanchen's "Wild Goose's Nest", and in connection with the various things that happened to Chen's now, he naturally got an inference: Liaochen's mother's mind was not because she surrendered to the imperial court, and was regarded by the remnants of the "Wild Goose's Nest" as a traitor who wanted to get rid of it quickly, but it was possible that she was a traitor who won the trust of the imperial court by surrendering to the imperial court, and her status was respectful, otherwise it was not enough for her comrades to repeatedly do something to her daughter.
After getting this inference, and thinking of the robbers' actions after robbing the dust from Dongjiao City for the first time, it naturally ruled out the possibility that the robbers hijacked the dust in order to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, kill people, and the only possibility left was that Xin Yi himself was also a person in the "Goose's Nest".
In addition, Gu Zi'er, the younger sister who confessed her heart to Qian Wuxian, was the one who made him rob twice, which made the last general think that this pair of sisters was extremely unusual, and the younger sister could not hesitate to take risks again and again in order to protect her sister's only daughter, and it should not be simply to care about sisters' affection, most of which have other reasons. When you think about it this way, it is not difficult to judge that the mind is a great bodhisattva. ”
In fact, as early as Yang Guang returned to Guangling from Chang'an, he successively learned the details of the murder in Tongguangni Temple from the mouths of the white-haired Liang Mo and Feng Xiaoxi, especially after listening to Feng Xiaoxi's narration, he had doubts about the real cause and motive of Xinyi's death, and then came up with a plan to use dust as bait to lure the remnants of the "Goose's Nest" hidden in the shadows to rob, so as to take the opportunity to capture the bandit leader alive and re-find the plan to solve the two murders in Jiankang. The key to the success of this plan is Li Jing.
Facts have proved that this "god of war" of later generations, who is only sixteen or seventeen years old, really did not disappoint him, not only successfully completed the two arduous missions he confessed, but also was able to draw inferences from one another, and deduced through various clues that his mind was Guan Zizai (the Great Bodhisattva).
"Well, if that's what you assumed, how do you explain the assassination of the heart?" Yang Guang wanted to hear Li Jing's judgment on the case of Tongguangni Temple, so as to corroborate each other with his own thoughts.
"The last general has never investigated the scene of the murder on the spot, and he cannot make an accurate judgment, so he can only guess based on the above inference about the true identity of the last general, and Xinyi was definitely not assassinated, and most likely committed suicide in fear of crime." Li Jing replied thoughtfully.
"Suicide in fear of sin! Do you mean that she was aware of the king's suspicion of her before she died? ”
"This possibility cannot be ruled out." Li Jing thought for a moment and added, "Perhaps, it was Pei Duji's office who brought her to Jiangnan from Chang'an, which made Xinyi suspicious and suspected that Xingzang had leaked, so he conspired with his comrades hiding in Jiangnan to plan this assassination." The last general also guessed that his intention must have been to propose to his comrades before his death, asking them to try to protect his daughter Lichen, which triggered the previous roadblock robbery incident of Qian Wuxiao and others. ”
"No, it won't." Yang Guang looked out of the hall, shook his head, and said, "As you expected, the mind is the words of the great Bodhisattva, she should be the leader of all the remnants of the 'Wild Goose's Nest'. ”
Li Jing opened his mouth, wanted to say something, but held back again.
"Li Jing, you say, is there such a possibility: Xinyi has a successor, and her mission has been completed, so she tried in vain to exchange her death for the protection of her daughter by the same party."
"Lord Wang, maybe the last general's inference is wrong, Xin Yi is not the supreme leader, her death, half of it is because she protects her daughter Lichen, and the other half is because someone wants her to die, so as to achieve the purpose of covering her successor." Li Jing couldn't help but say what he wanted to say in his heart.
In an instant, Yang Guang's mind once again flashed over a person's name: Chen Shubao.
However, he immediately denied the idea that Chen Shubao instructed and planned the death of the heart: Chen Shubao was far away in Chang'an, and under the strict surveillance of the imperial court, it was impossible for him to remotely command the remnants of the "Wild Goose's Nest" far away in the south of the Yangtze River.
"Lord Wang, the last general will ask for an order to rush to eastern Zhejiang again to exterminate the rebels!" When Yang Guangyu was groaning, he listened to Li Jing take the initiative to ask for his life.
"Li Jing, this time you went to eastern Zhejiang to do an errand, and several errands were done very beautifully, and this king is very satisfied. I mean, you should rest in Guangling for a few days, and leave the matter of suppressing bandits in eastern Zhejiang to others. Yang Guang was reluctant to let Li Jing leave his side, and persuaded him with a smile.
"Lord Wang, the last general escorted Qian back to Guangling unharmed, and he has already rested. Moreover, the last general asked the prince for an order and rushed to eastern Zhejiang again, not only to suppress the bandits, but also to capture that Gu Zi'er to meet the prince and uncover the mystery of the death of the heart. If it is someone else, I am afraid that it will be difficult to do what the prince wants. Li Jing tightened his face and insisted seriously.
Li Jing's words moved Yang Guang: According to Qian Wuxian's confession, Gu Zi'er is obviously a key person, if she can be captured alive, not only can she find more remnants of the "Wild Goose's Nest" and wipe them out, but more importantly, she can find out more things about Chen Shubao from her mouth, which is conducive to confirming her previous conjecture that Guan Zizi is not a person.
He further thought that Guan Zizai, the big leader of the "Wild Goose's Nest", might just be a code name, not specifically referring to one person, at present, except for himself, only Pei Yun knows a little, and due to various considerations, this situation is inconvenient to mention to more people. In this case, Li Jing is the best candidate to go to eastern Zhejiang to suppress bandits.
"If this king agrees to your request and appoints you to go to eastern Zhejiang again, how many men and horses do you plan to bring?"
"Just one battalion of hussars around the prince is enough." Li Jing heard that Yang Guang agreed to his invitation, a smile bloomed on his face, and he replied confidently.
"Well, just transfer Pei Qiantong's battalion to your control. However, you must remember that this time you went to eastern Zhejiang, while doing a good job of suppressing the bandits, you must also pay attention to appeasing the people and winning over the hearts of the people. ”
