Qizhou. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Yingge grinned, "Sister Yanzhen, you see, I'm a god-wrenching colt and a messenger who is ordered to be decent?" Kaede is so annoying! Let me pretend to be him, and I don't know what happened to him in Minzhou......"

"Yingge girl, you are wearing men's clothes, heroic, huh! Not bad. Sun Yanzhen smiled faintly! Master Ma is in Minzhou, there shouldn't be too much of a problem, he is easy to go, and there is Mr. Gao Hu's escort, so don't worry too much. However, why did he let us stay in Qizhou for so long? ”

"I don't know. He said in the letter that he would wait for Uncle Gao Hu to send news before letting the guard of honor leave Qizhou. Yingge paced around the room in the form of a man, and Yali called out outside the door, "Miss, Levi is here to see you." ”

"Let him in."

"Miss Yingge, Levi is polite." Li Wei walked into the room and bowed to Yingge and Sun Yanzhen.

"Mr. Li doesn't need to be polite, is there something wrong?" Yingge smiled slightly, a faint majesty spread, Sun Yanzhen nodded secretly on the side, sure enough, she is the princess of a country, this majesty is not pretended.

"Miss Hui, according to the instructions of the master of the horse, Li Wei has sent someone to transport the wealth to the head office in Chang'an. The Qizhou branch is already on the right track, and early tomorrow morning, Li Wei will rush to Minzhou to meet the horse master. Li Wei said respectfully.

"Okay, you go, see the colt, say that we are all right, and let him not worry. Tell Uncle Gao Hu for me that you must protect the safety of your horses. Yingge put her hands behind her back and said in a low voice.

"Yes! Levi took his leave. Levi bowed again and withdrew.

……

Chang'an, Shenji Horse House.

The red candles in the hall were shining, and Gao Yang was dressed in a costume, anxiously wandering around the hall. Yu Zhang frowned. "Sister Gao Yang. Can't you just wait in peace? You're pregnant......"

"No, I'm going to go into the palace to see my father, and let my father hurry up...... Yu Zhang, if my mother-in-law has any three long and two short, how can we explain to Mingtang? Gao Yang said urgently.

"Yes, Yuzhang, let me go into the palace with Gao Yang to ask my father to make an order, even if it is to turn Chang'an upside down. I also have to save my mother-in-law. Changle's face like a full moon showed deep anxiety.

"Sister Yuzhang, do you want to send someone to tell Mingtang?" Liu Xianglan sighed.

"Two sisters. My father already knew about it. Now, it's up to the crown prince to step forward. Jingzhao Yin Yamen and the Terracotta Division have launched a search throughout the city! I'm sure there will be news soon...... Xianglan, Mingtang is far away in Minzhou, facing thieves and robbers, the situation is sinister, such news is disadvantageous, let's wait......" Although Yu Zhang's face was also very anxious, she was calm. Knowing what to do and what not to do.

This afternoon, Xue Yang took dozens of guards to the Bodhi Nunnery in the southeast of the city to burn incense. Unexpectedly, the person suddenly disappeared in the nunnery. The news came. Yu Zhang and other women were shocked, Li Zhi immediately sent the Royal Forest Army to surround the Bodhi Nunnery, and when they couldn't find it, they immediately blocked Chang'an City, and the whole city was under martial law, and the city gate was tightly closed, and no one was allowed to go out of the city.

"Her Royal Highness the Princess, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has sent news that there is still no whereabouts of the old lady." At the entrance of the hall, a guard reported.

"Where is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince now?" Yu Zhang slowly got up and asked.

"Back to the princess, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is interrogating those nuns of the Bodhi Nunnery with Jing Zhaoyin."

"You go, gather all the guards in the mansion, and immediately follow me to the Bodhi Nunnery." Yu Zhang groaned, "Two sisters, Sister Xianglan, let's go to Bodhi Nunnery to ......"

The guard of honor of the four women rushed to the Bodhi Nunnery. In front of the nunnery and behind the nunnery, five steps and one post, three steps and one sentry, the Royal Forest Army surrounded the Bodhi Nunnery. This nunnery was built by the famous female nun Xianyuan master of the former Sui Dynasty, and the incense was prosperous! The scale is huge, and the nuns from all over the country gather in the nunnery, and it is a famous place for female monks to practice in Chang'an City.

In the nunnery, in a large Buddhist hall, dozens of nuns stand there, under a golden statue of Sakyamuni Buddha, Li Zhi and Jingzhao Yin Gongsun Wuda are sitting and standing, and a middle-aged nun with a delicate face is kneeling in front of her, and the Bodhi Nunnery is in charge of silence.

The nuns were divided, and the four daughters of Yuzhang broke in. Gongsun Wuda was taken aback and bowed deeply, "The minister has seen the four princesses!" ”

"The four princesses are here, and the palace is ......" Li Zhi waved his hand irritably, An He is not only the magic horse of the Tang Dynasty, the inspector of the world, but also the confidant he relies on, his mother suddenly disappeared, and there is still no whereabouts after a few hours, Li Zhi can't hold his breath in his heart, in case - he has a big head when he thinks about it!

"Brother Wang, let me ask these nuns." After sitting down, Yu Zhang said coldly, "Are you the host of Bodhi Nunnery?" ”

"Back to the princess, Xiao Ni is quiet and has presided over this nunnery for 12 years." Silence said slowly, with a calm face.

"So, this palace asks you, how many nuns are there in the nunnery?"

"34. There is also a pending order for 1 person. ”

"Where are the nuns who place orders?"

A beautiful young nun walked out of the group of nuns and knelt on the ground, "Little Ni Ningyuan, from Qinzhou Qixia Nunnery, came to Chang'an Bodhi Nunnery for half a month. ”

Yu Zhang glanced at her coldly, groaned, and said to Li Zhi, "Brother Wang, it is a recent matter for my mother-in-law to come to this nunnery to worship the Buddha, this must be a thief who heard the news, ambushed in the nunnery, and plundered my mother-in-law." Someone is coming, call Li Qian, the head of the guards who followed the old lady, to the palace! ”

A young guard with a gloomy face hurriedly rushed in and fell to his knees, "Little Li Qian has seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, His Royal Highness the Four Princesses!" ”

"Useless thing, you tell the palace in detail about the disappearance of the old lady today." Yu Zhang reprimanded.

Li Qian's face was pale, and his body trembled. As the commander of the guards, he took dozens of guards to guard him all the way, but he didn't expect that the old lady would have an accident in a nunnery, which is a sin of losing his head! He trembled and said, "Back to the princess, the little one escorted the old lady to incense in this nunnery early this morning, and the old lady worshiped the Buddha in this Buddhist hall, and the small one led people to block the surroundings of the Buddhist hall, at that time, there was no one in the nunnery!" Only the old lady...... I didn't expect the old lady to disappear here......"

"You go down. Silence, the old lady is incense in this Buddhist hall, how can she suddenly disappear? Did you harbor the gangsters and rob the old lady, and quickly recruit them? Yu Zhang shouted.

"Back to the princess, Xiao Ni really doesn't know. This nunnery has always been law-abiding, dedicated to the Buddha, and has never had anything to do with the world, please see the princess clearly...... "The silence is still flat.

"Yuzhang, this nunnery has sent people to search carefully countless times, and there is no trace of the old lady." Li Zhi sighed, "It's really strange......"

Gao Yang stood up suddenly, with a cold look on her gorgeous face, and with a finger of her hand, she said slowly, "You guys are good for this palace, if anything happens to the old lady, don't even think about living, this palace will peel your skin......"

Changle shook his head, "Yuzhang, how can a big living person say that it's gone?" No, I'm still looking for clues from them. ”

"Sister Changle is right." Yu Zhang nodded, "Silence, what do you have to say?" ”

"Your Royal Highness Princess, Xiao Ni has been practicing in the nunnery since she was a child, and she has never done anything wrong. All the nuns in the nunnery have also been monks in the nunnery since childhood, and they are dedicated to worshipping the Buddha with coarse tea and light rice, how can they collude with gangsters to murder the old lady? The princess is discerning! Silence raised his head, and there was a clear light in his eyes, "My Buddha is merciful!" ”

Yu Zhang was speechless for a long time. Suddenly, she waved her hand, "Brother Wang, take strict care of these nuns to other places, and let's take a look at this Buddha hall." Li Qian, call the guards in. ”

Under the escort of the guards, the nuns bowed their heads and exited the Buddhist hall, and the female nun named Ning Yuan was caught in the crowd, and when she was leaving, her eyes were lowered, and she hurriedly glanced at a corner of the hall. Yu Zhang saw it in his eyes, his heart jumped, and his eyes fell deeply to that corner.

The floor of the hall is a neatly paved bluestone slab, and in this corner there are more than a dozen futons, apparently where the nuns chant on weekdays. Yu Zhang walked over and asked Li Qian to lead someone to remove all the futons, squatting down and inspecting them carefully.

It didn't look like it was any different from the rest of the church. The same bluestone slabs, due to the age, the bluestone slabs are polished to shine.

Yu Zhang walked lightly on it and didn't notice anything unusual. She frowned, took a sword from Li Qian's hand, and struck it with the blade of the sword. Li Zhi and Gao Yang Sannu looked at her strangely, and Li Zhi sighed, "Yuzhang, this Buddhist hall has been turned upside down......

Yu Zhang didn't say anything and continued to beat. Suddenly, she raised her head and said slowly, "Li Qian, what do you see abnormality on this ground?" ”

"Back to the princess, the little one didn't find anything abnormal, please make it clear to the princess." Li Qian bowed and stood aside.

"Come and see! The gap between these four bluestone slabs ......" The sword in Yu Zhang's hand pointed to the ground.

Li Qian hurried over, leaned down, and looked at it for a long time! He turned around and looked at the ground elsewhere, and there was a big earthquake, "Your Royal Highness Princess, here, the gap between the bluestone slabs here seems to be different from other places......"

"What's the difference? Speak quickly! Gao Yang interjected.

"Princess Gaoyang, although there are obvious gaps between these four bluestone slabs, they are not completely cracked, and they seem to be connected together." Li Qian looked at it carefully again.

"Not bad. Come on, pry up these four bluestone slabs for the palace......" Yu Zhang waved his hand, and several guards and the Imperial Forest Army behind Li Zhi rushed up.

Sure enough, these four bluestone slabs were connected together, and after prying them up, everyone's eyes stared at them together. Yu Zhang, Gao Yang, Changle and Liu Xianglan drank away the guards and walked forward with Li Zhi, and the Buddhist hall was suddenly silent. (To be continued.) )
