Chapter 797 is to save people, not to assassinate
"Feng Xiaoxi, do you know what you're talking about? It's not that in Li Jing's affection, this king will not give you this opportunity to exonerate yourself in front of this king! Yang Guang couldn't stand Feng Xiaoxi anymore, and raised his eyebrows at her.
The maidservant is grateful for the trust of the prince, and since the assassination incident at Tongguangni Temple, every time he recalls the incident before and after, he feels deeply remorseful for his negligence. But at the same time, he also had a different view on the death of Xinyi Shitai. Before the prince sent someone to summon me to Guangling, I also repeatedly asked to meet Zhang Changshi and Yuwen, but I was able to meet in person, but I was unable to do so because of my humble status. Since the prince summoned me to ask me today, he must have wanted to hear me say what was really in my heart, didn't he? What I want to tell the prince is that the assassins who infiltrated the Tongguang Ni Temple on that rainy night ten days ago were not assassins at all, and as far as I can judge, they came to save people, not to assassinate people. ”
Because Feng Xiaoxi's statement was too amazing, far beyond Yang Guang's expectations, Yang Guang listened to her words, completely forgot to scold her, was stunned for a moment, and asked her: "You say that, do you have any evidence?" ”
"The direct certificate is not available for the time being, because the mind master is dead. But I can be sure that the prince is destined to report that Liyuan (Sima Luo's legal name) and I are both drugged by the mind. That night, Mrs. Xinyi knew in advance that someone had sneaked into Tongguang Ni Temple in the middle of the night to meet her. ”
Yang Guang's eyes quickly rolled in his sockets, and motioned for Feng Xiaoxi to continue.
"Because the maid was taken care of by Pei Duji's room in advance, I was asked to pay more attention to my wife, so after Mrs. Sui's mother moved from Guangling to live in Jiankang, I lived in the same room with her in the name of serving Mrs. Shi, so that I could observe her movements at any time. I remember that night, it rained heavily, and dozens of monks and nuns who had been practicing in Tongguang Ni Temple were all expelled to live outside the temple by the officials and soldiers guarding outside the temple.
It was about the time of the second watch, seeing that the heart of the master still refused to agree, the fate did not dare to go back to the room alone, still in our room did not leave, the heart of the master got up, while walking towards the room, while the edge and I said: "There are only two beds in this room, the three of us live a little crowded, it is better for the two of you to live here tonight, I will go to live in the edge of the room." ’
Naturally, I didn't want to live alone, so I got up and stopped at the door, and persuaded Yuan: 'If you are afraid, I can come to your room and accompany you for a while, and then leave when you are asleep. I was embarrassed by what I said, so I also got up and pulled Mrs. Xinyi back to the bed and sat down, and went back to the room to rest alone. I was afraid that she would be alone in a room, so I went back to my room with her, asked her to lie down on the bed, chatted with her, and waited for her to fall asleep before leaving.
Soon after she and I returned to her room, Mrs. Xinyi also followed with a tray in her hand and brought us two bowls of tea.
Perhaps it was late at night, and after drinking the tea sent by Mrs. Xinyi, he fell asleep soon after. Mrs. Xinyi returned to our room with me and lay down on the bed before me. Yet, in retrospect, I had to go to bed earlier than ever before, and I slept to death. This can't help but make me suspect, the problem is in the two bowls of tea that Mrs. Xinyi gave to Yuan and me, and then suspect that Xinyi deliberately drugged us and did something else, but I didn't expect her to die that night......"
"Can you be sure that when you and your two return to the room, she lies down in bed before you and you fall asleep first?" Yang Guang listened attentively to Feng Xiaoxi's narration and asked her a very critical question.
"I just live in the same room with her in the name of serving my wife, and if I don't sleep with my wife, how can I lie down and fall asleep first? But that night, somehow, my servant went back to my bed after lying down, and as soon as my head touched the pillow, I fell into a deep sleep. ”
"What you're talking about is a doubt." It was only then that the expression on Yang Guang's face softened, and he continued to ask Feng Xiaoxi, "But this alone is not enough to deduce that it was Master Xintai who drugged Sima Luo and you." Afterwards, didn't you mention this matter to Sima Luo, what did she say? ”
"Since the death of Mrs. Xinyi, Sima Luo and I have been detained separately, if it weren't for the prince to send someone, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to get out of that prison room at the moment. The reason why the maid said this was not entirely because of the situation on the night of the incident, but because it was related to the conclusion that Pei Duji's room secretly found me before and asked me to pay more attention to my every move after arriving in Jiankang. ”
Yang Guang flashed Feng Xiaoxi's glance, and thought to himself: This little woman is very clever, she must have guessed that her identity was suspicious, so she came to such an opinion. Because of the identity of the other party, it was inconvenient for Yang Guang to make the words clear to her, and when he lowered his head and moved, he asked Feng Xiaoxi: "Since you can consider the events that happened before and after from this and the other, you might as well talk about it, in your eyes, what is the truth of the assassination incident in Tongguangni Temple, right?" ”
"I've been thinking about what forced Master Xin to end her life in such an extreme way, and I finally found one thing: that is, Master Xin wanted to use this matter to save her only daughter, and no longer get involved in endless disputes between all parties in the future. Everything she did was for the dust that the prince sent Li Jing to pick up in eastern Zhejiang. Once the true motive for this matter is found, the next things can be explained one by one: if, as the prince had previously suspected, the mind master had some kind of secret connection with the hidden forces in Jiangnan, after she learned that the prince had sent someone to pick up the dust, she had already had the idea of seeking death, and because she knew that the prince had moved her and Sima Luo from Guangling to Jiankang to settle down, it had other plans, which strengthened her determination to save her daughter with death, so she was able to live in Tongguangni Temple and quietly get in touch with the hidden forces. deceived the other party to send a skilled person to rescue her, but she ended her life by the other party's hand when the other party sent someone to rescue her, and this is how it happened. ”
Thinking of the original intention to surrender to the imperial court, the only condition proposed to himself was to ask the imperial court to safely send her and Yuwen Hu's daughter Lichen back to their hometown in Jiangnan, although everything Feng Xiaoxi said would feel too unreasonable and even a little appalling to others, but in Yang Guang's ears, he thought that there was no such possibility.
Even if the mind is really as he suspected before, it is another Guan Zizi, in order to protect her daughter from the dust, she is a mother, there is a reason, and it is possible to do such a thing.
