Chapter 252: The Son of Heaven is angry
The news of Su Wuming's assassination in Huguo Temple soon spread.
And after the news came out, the people in the entire Chang'an City were discussing, some people said that Su Wuming wanted to demolish the Buddhist temple, which caused public anger, so some people wanted to kill him, and some people said that it was the assassination carried out by the people of Huguo Temple, and they couldn't force Su Wuming away, so they had to assassinate Su Wuming.
All kinds of news spread in Chang'an City, and soon reached the ears of Li Yan, the emperor of the palace.
When Li Yan heard the news that his courtiers had been assassinated, he was immediately furious, and above the court, he scolded those ministers who had impeached Su Wuming before.
But as soon as Li Yan said this proposal, Li Deyu immediately stood up against it, and said: "Your Majesty, Lord Su was assassinated, it is true that those people are too arrogant, and they should be taught a lesson, but it is a little difficult to convince the public to forcibly demolish the temple like this, after all, the assassin who assassinated him has committed suicide, and the assassination has not been investigated clearly, so whether to demolish it or not, it is better to wait for Lord Su to investigate clearly before making a decision." ”
This Li Deyu was also shocked by Su Wuming's assassination, but the shock was shocked, but his heart was very happy, so he naturally didn't want Li Yan to order the forcible demolition of the Huguo Temple, of course, the words he said in the court were also somewhat reasonable, the court ordered the forced demolition of the temple, it is indeed easy to cause public anger, this matter must not be in a hurry, the only thing to do is to find out the weakness of those temples, and then demolish them.
When discussing disputes in the court, Huguo Temple has also entered a white-hot state at this time, Su Wuming was assassinated, and it happened in Huguo Temple, whether this matter was done by Huguo Temple or not, Su Wuming will not let go of this opportunity.
After Su Wuming ordered the forbidden army to gather all the monks in the Huguo Temple and restricted their freedom, Su Wuming ordered the forbidden army to search again, and in any case, some other clues must be found.
While the forbidden army was searching, Su Wuming suddenly thought of a strange thing, how did the assassin enter his room last night? The entire Huguo Temple has been surrounded by the forbidden army, but the assassin came in quietly, which is incredible.
There must be secret passages.
When Su Wuming thought of this, he immediately entered the house where he lived, how to rummage back and forth in that room, and soon, he discovered the secret, under a table in the corner of the wall, the floor was actually movable, and after removing the floor, there was a secret passage below.
After calling Lin Yun over, Su Wuming and the two of them entered the secret passage, so that after the secret passage came to an end, they found that they had come to the outside of the Huguo Temple, but although it was outside the Huguo Temple, it was the outer house of the Huguo Temple, and the so-called outer house was where some lay disciples of the Huguo Temple lived.
Compared to the Huguo Temple, that place seems a little dilapidated, but there are dozens of people living in it, when Su Wuming found out about this, he was immediately furious, and ordered people to surround the outer house, and arrested all the lay disciples of the Huguo Temple.
Obviously, the assassin was sent by the Huguo Temple, otherwise it would not be easy to enter Su Wuming's room through the secret passage of the outer house.
After arresting those people in the outer house, Su Wuming ordered someone to carry out the body of the assassin for those lay disciples to see, and asked them if they had seen this person, after those people saw the corpse, they were stunned for a moment, and then they all shook their heads and said that they didn't know, at this time, even if they knew the assassin, they didn't dare to admit it.
And after seeing the attitude of these lay disciples, Su Wuming smiled coldly and said: "Since you don't want to say it, then don't blame Lord Ben for being unkind, come here, take all these people down and watch, if they refuse to tell the truth, they won't give them food." ”
In this world, there are many ways for powerful people to deal with those who have no power, and many times it is just a sentence.
Those lay disciples were escorted down, and it was only at this time that Su Wuming ordered someone to call the abbot of Yuanji, at this time the abbot of Yuanji could no longer keep his previous calm, he looked very nervous and scared, he knew what happened to the assassination last night, it was his last killer weapon.
Of course, it's not that he doesn't believe in Monk Yuanhui, but he knows very well that even if Qingguang Temple and Pudu Temple are willing to cooperate with Huguo Temple, they will also take action when Huguo Temple is beaten and it is difficult to turn over, so he can't wait, he must use his killer move, as long as he can kill Su Wuming, with their influence in Huguo Temple for so many years, they can be saved in the future.
However, it failed, so the only hope he had at this time was that Su Wuming couldn't find out that he had done it.
Su Wuming glanced at the abbot of Yuanji, then smiled coldly and said, "The abbot has something to say about the assassination of this official?" ”
Abbot Yuanji was in a trance, but he refused to admit his guilt and said, "Maybe...... Maybe it was because Master Su had offended too many people, so they assassinated Lord Su. ”
"Oh, has Ben-sama offended you?"
"This ......" Abbot Yuanji was speechless for a while, this question made it difficult for him to answer, if he didn't offend, it was completely against his will, and it also indirectly signaled Su Wuming's behavior, which did not make him feel angry, so Su Wuming would continue to do these things; And if you say that you are offended, then you have become a suspect? And this suspect brought it up on his own.
Since it's hard to answer, let's keep silent.
Abbot Yuanji was silent, and at this time, a forbidden soldier hurriedly ran over, saying that Monk Yuanhui was not in the temple, after hearing the news, Su Wuming was not surprised, he just bowed slightly, and then asked, "What about your junior brother?" ”
He ...... He's out on business! ”
Su Wuming smiled coldly: "I think I'm going to contact other temples to deal with Lord Ben, right?" ”
“……”
Abbot Enyoshi really didn't know what to say, he just felt that the young man in front of him was too terrifying, much more terrifying than he imagined.
When Su Wuming interrogated the abbot of Yuanji, the monk Yuanhui had just come out of the Pudu Temple, and he met the two abbots of Qingguang Temple and Pudu Temple in one night, and told them their current situation, and the Qingguang abbot and the Puyu abbot also nodded in agreement, but they were obviously not very enthusiastic about joining forces, but they did not say no words, only said that they would help each other when the time came.
But when is this time?
In fact, the Yuanhui monk didn't know whether it was, after he left the Pudu Temple, the abbot of Puyu immediately went to see the abbot of Qingguang, and after the two old monks sat together, they immediately told the Yuanhui monk to find them.
They naturally knew what Monk Yuanhui said, but they wanted to defeat the Huguo Temple even more, because over the years, the Huguo Temple had overwhelmed them, and now they finally had the opportunity to deal with the Huguo Temple, and they naturally would not let it go.
As for joining forces, they are not worried, after the collapse of Huguo Temple, their two temples can join forces, they are still very confident in their respective strengths, and they also believe that the two of them join forces, even if they can't fight Su Wuming, they can still protect themselves.
People in the world, for fame and profit, as long as it is good for them, they are willing to take risks.
At this time, Chang'an Street is very lively, and many people are waiting to see the excitement, after all, in this world, there are still many people without faith, all they want is to have a place to live, and three meals a day are just settled.
After Monk Yuanhui left Pudu Temple, he immediately heard about what happened in Huguo Temple last night, and after hearing about it, Monk Yuanhui couldn't help but sigh: "Senior brother, confused!" ”
After the monk Yuanhui shouted these words, he immediately flashed and went to a secluded mansion, which he had secretly bought with the money he had saved over the years, and immediately lived in the two concubines he bought.
And at this time, in the Huguo Temple.
Facing the silence of Monk Yuanji, Su Wuming snorted coldly, and then ordered: "Send someone to control the main roads of Chang'an City, and you must find out Monk Yuanhui." ”
After the forbidden army received the order, one of them flew away from the Huguo Temple, and it was more convenient to hand over the matter of finding someone to the Ya Servant or Dali Temple, and Su Wuming's current identity was only afraid that whether it was the Ya Servant or Dali Temple, they had to cooperate.
Because this matter is related to the matter explained by the emperor.
After the forbidden army left on that side, Su Wuming ordered people to take care of all those monks, although it was to take care of it, but it was to separate the Yuanji monk and the other monks, and the reason was very simple, this was Su Wuming's intention, he wanted to persecute these monks, as for how to persecute, it would not be known until the evening.
After trapping all those low-status monks in front of the Buddhist hall, Su Wuming sent several forbidden soldiers to escort the Yuanji monks to the pilgrims' wings to see, and those forbidden soldiers lived in the rooms of those monks, living in them, maybe they could find out nothing, and Su Wuming lived in the room of the abbot of Yuanji, when the abbot of Yuanji learned that Su Wuming lived in his room, he was very nervous for a while, but even so, he didn't dare to make any noise, he only hoped, Su Wuming didn't want to discover his secret.
After such an arrangement, Su Wuming began to wait for the evening, because the evening was the beginning of his plan, and after this plan was successful, the power of the Huguo Temple would be reduced by more than half.
