Xiao E's personal maid Green Pothos entered in response, not only holding Xiao E's golden needle box in her hand, but also a bag on the box, walked in front of Xiao E, and reminded Xiao E softly: "Princess, this is the object you want your servant to keep for the time being, and the maid has brought it to you." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Xiao Er was reminded by the green pothos, and suddenly remembered one thing, and ordered the green pothos to put his golden needle box on a few cases first, clean up the remaining meals on a few cases, and take the bag up, and apologize to Yang Guang: "I just cared about talking, and I forgot about it for a while." Before I left Beijing to merge with the state, the guard Zhang Xutuotuo who was left in the Chang'an Mansion by the prince brought it into the palace, saying that he asked me to bring it to the state and hand it over to the prince. ”

This is the first letter that Zhang Xutuotuo brought to himself in the months since An Ruoxi's suicide, Yang Guang hurriedly took the bag from Xiao E's hand, and he didn't care about asking Xiao E to do the needle for him to relieve his fatigue, so he stood in place and didn't move, opened the bag and couldn't wait to look at it.

Completely different from the previous letter, Zhang Xutuo's second letter was full of reports to Yang Guangyu about the progress of his secret investigation of Xinyi Shitai.

Out of secrecy, Yang Guang opened the bag and only glanced at it a few times, then raised his head and said to Xiao E: "The princess should go to the side hall to rest for the time being." ”

This time, Xiao E did not refuse, but smiled, nodded, and persuaded Yang Guangdao: "Then the concubine will go and see Jian'er first, the prince should not be too tired, but also take care of his own body and do what he can." As he spoke, he turned around and walked out of the dormitory.

After Xiao E left the dormitory, Yang Guangcai watched Zhang Xutuo's second letter carefully with bated breath.

To Yang Guang's surprise, Zhang Xutuo reported to Yang Guang in his second letter two major discoveries in the course of his covert surveillance of Xinyi Shitai in recent months:

First, after a long period of secret discovery of the mind of the teacher, Zhang Xutuo finally found out that the heart of the master has been unwilling to leave the real reason of the Wanshanni Temple easily: Wanshanni Temple near the Mingjing Hall is likely to be buried the body or bones of the heart of the teacher's dearest and beloved, every time in the middle of the night of the day of the new day, Zhang Xutuo lurks in the shadows, can always spy on the heart of the master alone outside the Mingjing Hall, in front of the hall incense burner lit three pillars of incense, silently pray to the sky before willing to go back to the room to rest, months regardless of the wind, frost, rain and snow, Never stopped for a day. What is even more remarkable is that Zhang Xutuo later secretly investigated the burial places of everyone who had an intimate relationship with Xinyi Shitai: including her parents and her husband, Emperor Ming of the former dynasty, but found nothing. The only thing that was not found was that Yu Wenhu, a former minister of power who may have had a relationship with Xinyi Tai many years ago, was buried where his body was buried after he was killed by Emperor Wu of the former dynasty.

Although Zhang Xutuo did not say it explicitly in the letter, the meaning of the words was clear at a glance: he suspected that after Yuwen Hu's death, the body was quietly buried near the Ming Jing Hall of Wanshanni Temple by his former good-natured teacher.

Reading the letter so far, Yang Guang remembered the secret road to Wanshanni Temple that was found on the night of the inventory of the stone house courtyard five years ago, and secretly thought to himself: If Zhang Xutuo's prediction is true, then this secret road built in the name of facilitating his mother to go to the temple to worship the Buddha is likely to be built by Yuwen Hu after the death of Emperor Ming in the previous dynasty, as Emperor Ming's favorite concubine, the mind of the master escaped into the empty door, and after entering the Wanshanni Temple to become a monk, in order to facilitate him and the mind to communicate with each other and continue to maintain secret exchanges. It's just unclear whether Xihua'er and Sleeve Hong, who are people in the "Wild Goose's Nest", are also using this secret passage to keep in touch with their accomplices and bosses in Wanshanni Temple (the first object of suspicion is still Xinyi)?

Zhang Xutuo's second discovery in the process of monitoring Xinyi Shitai was somewhat accidental compared to the first discovery, but it attracted Yang Guang's greater attention: not long ago, Xinyi Shitai's sibling Gu Sheng came from Jiangzuo to Chang'an to join his sister.

When Yang Guang was still in the dynasty last year, he heard Wang Shichong give a detailed introduction to the origin and origin of Xinyi Shitai, and it was after listening to Wang Shichong introduce that Xinyi Shitai was born in the Gu family, one of the four surnames of Jiangzuo, that Yang Guang's initial attention to her was aroused. At this time, seeing that Zhang Xutuo wrote in the letter that Xinyi's sibling brother suddenly came to Chang'an, the capital of Sui, from Jiangzuonan Chen Guozhong many years later, this can not but be said to be an unexpected gain. At least, from this incident, it can be imagined that it is very likely that Master Xinyi has maintained some kind of contact with Jiang Zuo for so many years.

However, to Yang Guang's somewhat disappointment, Zhang Xutuo only reported the news to him in a letter, and did not make any suggestive judgments based on it, such as suspecting that Gu Sheng was a fine work sent by the Southern Chen Imperial Court to get in touch with Tongxin Shitai.

However, it was Mrs. Xinyi who went thousands of miles to the place where his siblings were placed, which made Zhang Xutuo inadvertently suspicious of another person, and also aroused Yang Guang's great attention.

According to Zhang Xutuo's letter, the second day after Gu Sheng went to the temple to join her, Mrs. Xinyi entrusted Gu Sheng to the deacon of Wanshanni Temple, Mrs. Xinyi, and asked her to find a way for Gu Sheng to make a living in Chang'an City.

The favorite teacher is in the temple as a deacon, and the pilgrims who come to the temple to worship the Buddha are the most familiar, but the people in Chang'an City are quite wide, according to common sense, if she is willing to help the senior sister this favor, it can be said that it is a gesture, and it does not take much to do one thing.

However, after being entrusted by the lady of the heart, this favorite teacher did not open his mouth to anyone, and only used his authority in the temple to arrange an errand for Gu Sheng to be an incense and candle circulation office, and was responsible for distributing incense and candles to the believers who entered the temple outside the mountain gate to pay incense to the Buddha, so as to mix a full meal in the temple.

At first, Zhang Xutuo didn't pay much attention to the fact that his favorite master made this faction, but because Gu Sheng was from the land of Jiangzuo Nanchen after all, and he was the brother of the heart master, so while continuing to secretly monitor Xinyi, he would occasionally pay a little attention to Gu Sheng, and take it to see if he had secret dealings with anyone on weekdays.

Who knows, Gu Sheng was arranged by Xinyi to be on an errand at the incense and candle circulation outside Wanshanni Temple for less than half a month, and he poked a big basket out, which also made Zhang Xutuo, who was hiding in the dark to monitor Xinyi, inadvertently discover a big secret of his favorite teacher.
