readx; Cui Guangyuan did not immediately rush to the county office, but returned to his home, Cui Guangyuan's grandfather Cui Jingsi, originally Fangzhou Assassin History, Tang Zhongzong was demoted to Fangzhou as the king of Luling before he ascended the throne, other officials were rude to him, but Cui Jingsi gave him a lot of courtesy, abundant supply, Zhongzong thought it was virtuous, but after ascending the throne, he mistook another Yizhou governor with the same name and surname for Cui Jingsi, and only when he saw himself did he know that he was mistaken, and then looked for Cui Jingsi, only to know that he had died, and later awarded his son Cui Wang as an official, but because Cui Wang often drank and misunderstood, I had to use it.

Cui Guangyuan is the son of Cui Wang, he has not learned since he was a child, he is a famous ranger on the streets of Chang'an, good martial arts, drunk and gambling, in the last years of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, he got the shade of the door, served as the county commander of Tang'an County, Shuzhou, and Yang Zhao, who was down-and-out at that time, that is, Yang Guozhong is a gambling friend, after Yang Guozhong won the will, in order to envelop the Cui family, he was transferred to Chang'an, as the doctor of the East Palace Zuo Shanzan, at the beginning of the year, he was appointed as the county commander of Chang'an.

Although he is a member of the Yang Party, he is different from other Yang Guozhong's henchmen, he has his own ideas, especially he knows Yang Guozhong very well, and he despises him as a person, although he is attached to Yang Guozhong, it is also a last resort.

Cui Guangyuan is not stupid, on the contrary, he is very shrewd, Yang Guozhong gave him the book, and he immediately guessed a clue, they have tried their best to find the assassin, how can Yang Guozhong find another assassin, is it the inexplicable word 'Xing'? How can it be found, there is only one possibility.

When he got home, he shut himself in his study, and he was really tired from the night last night, but he couldn't sleep, and paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back.

He had already guessed the truth of the matter, and the assassination of King Di was most likely a shocking conspiracy, and he would be involved in this conspiracy.

Although I didn't see what this conspiracy meant, Cui Guangyuan was very anxious in his heart, Yang Guozhong was obviously going to take Xing Wei to the knife, Xing Wei was a famous hero in Chang'an, Cui Guangyuan was wandering on the streets of Chang'an back then, and offended the powerful several times, it was this Xing Wei who helped him get rid of it, and he had old favors for him, if he really went to Chongsheng Temple to arrest people, I am afraid that the final outcome would be unfavorable to Xing Wei, but if he didn't arrest him, it would be his dereliction of duty and let him be in a dilemma.

At this time, the door opened, Cui Guangyuan's wife came in with a bowl of ginseng tea, his wife's name is Luo Ziyun, she is the daughter of a big family in Shuzhong, knowledgeable, gentle and virtuous, gave birth to a son and a daughter, and the relationship between husband and wife is very deep.

"Fulang, I heard that you didn't sleep all night last night, I stewed a bowl of white fungus ginseng tea, you drink it!"

Cui Guangyuan was upset, so he said, "Put it aside, I don't want to drink it now!" ”

"But you haven't slept all night......" Luo Ziyun still brought the ginseng bowl to him.

"Annoying!" Cui Guangyuan waved his hand and knocked the bowl out, 'Bang! With a bang, the ginseng bowl shattered.

Luo Ziyun took two steps back in shock, she looked at her husband blankly for a long time, sighed, and squatted down to clean up the pieces.

Cui Guangyuan sat down heavily, he looked at his wife cleaning up the ginseng bowl, the ginseng slices and white fungus all over the ground, he couldn't help but feel a little guilty in his heart, and said, "I'm sorry! It's that I'm too upset. ”

Luo Ziyun smiled softly and picked up the pieces, "Husband, I'll stew you another bowl." ”

She was about to retreat, but Cui Guangyuan stopped her, "Madam! ”

"Is there anything else going on, husband?"

"Madam, I have a knot in my heart, can you untie it for me?"

Luo Ziyun stopped, turned around and said, "Husband, please speak!" ”

Cui Guangyuan sighed and said: "There is a person who has been kind to me, but he has violated the criminal law of the Tang Dynasty, do you say that I am impartial or private." ”

Luo Ziyun said without hesitation: "Fu Lang is an official of the country, so naturally he will put the public before the private, arrest people first, and then we will take care of his wife and daughter to repay the favor." ”

"But if he didn't break the law, but would have fallen victim to a power struggle, and if I hadn't arrested him against my will, my official would probably not have been able to survive, in this case, what should I do?"

Luo Ziyun pondered for a moment, then raised his head and said: "The sky is clear, the eldest husband should be worthy of doing things, and he will take revenge, but it is the villain's doing, don't be afraid of losing your official position, it's a big deal for us to go back to our hometown to farm." ”

His wife's words were like a muffled thunder exploding on the ground, which made Cui Guangyuan suddenly wake up, yes! Birds and beasts still know how to repay their kindness, if the husband will take revenge, isn't it better than beasts, Yang Guozhong plays with power, how can he be unrighteous with him, at this moment, he resolutely made up his mind.

．．．．．．． Chongsheng Temple is located in Chongde Fang, it is one of the famous temples in Chang'an, when Wu Zetian was in power, it was prominent for a while, after Li Longji came to power, Buddhism gradually lost its former grandeur, Chongsheng Temple also slowly weakened, but its weakness is only relative to the heyday, it obviously still has hundreds of houses, more than 500 monks, there are thousands of acres of land outside the city, it is still one of the top two temples in Chang'an.

One of the biggest characteristics of Chongsheng Temple is that the mountain gate is wide open and monks are recruited from all walks of life, so the temple is also mixed with dragons and dragons, and the personnel structure is complex.

In the afternoon, a large group of officials suddenly came in front of the Chongsheng Temple, there were more than 100 people, Chang'an County ordered Cui Guangyuan, and Jia Jilin, the county governor, walked into the temple quickly, and the presiding officer of the Chongsheng Temple hurriedly came out to greet him.

"Amitabha, Cui County ordered to come to our temple, can you do it?"

"We are here to arrest the felons of the imperial court, you immediately gather all the monks, and we will search the monastery."

The host was shocked, and hurriedly said: "Cui County Order, our Chongsheng Temple has always been law-abiding, how can we secretly hide the recidivism of the imperial court?" ”

"Humph! You Chongsheng Temple recruits monks regardless of the source, does not distinguish household registration, and does not refuse to come, do you dare to say that you have no evil people here? ”

"This...."The abbot was a little stunned, he saw the menacing officials, and he couldn't help beating the drum in his heart, could there really be a wanted criminal hidden in his temple?

He didn't dare to argue any more, and immediately ordered the monks around him: "Call everyone out, go quickly!" ”

"Boom! Boom! ”

The loud bell rang, and groups of monks ran out of the monk's house, they had the same bald head and the same monk's robe, they were dazzled, and the county lieutenant Jia Jilin said in a low voice: "Cui County Order, this look, I'm afraid we still don't have enough people, it's better to report to Jing Zhaoyin." ”

"No! The matter cannot be expanded. ”

Cui Guangyuan glanced at Jia Jilin, he knew that this person was Wang Hui's henchman, and he wanted to show credit in front of Wang Hui, Cui Guangyuan didn't care about this credit, but was worried that after Wang Heng intervened, things would become more complicated, maybe he felt that his tone was a little hard, so he softened his tone and said: "County Lieutenant Jia, I just heard a secret report from someone, and there is no clear evidence, which alarmed Wang Zhijun, if we can't catch it, I'm afraid we won't be able to explain." ”

"The prefectural order is right!" Jia Jilin laughed dryly, but he was thinking about letting someone deliver the letter.

At this time, more than 500 monks from Chongsheng Temple had already gathered in the square, and the host stepped forward to laugh and said, "Cui County Order, it's already good." ”

Cui Guangyuan waved his hand and ordered: "Search for me!" ”

More than 100 officials rushed into the temple, and Cui Guangyuan saw that Jia Jilin also entered, so he summoned the head catcher and instructed: "I estimate that this person will run out by himself, you don't care about it, give me a knife to slaughter this person, and I will bear all the consequences." ”

"My subordinates understand!"

The head catcher is Cui Guangyuan's henchman, he agreed, and immediately rushed in, Cui Guangyuan's heart began to become nervous, he had already made up his mind, the best way was to slaughter this assassin with a knife, in this way, the rest of the matter will be over, Yang Guozhong's conspiracy will not continue, and he Cui Guangyuan will not be derelict in his duties.

The officials all went to search, and Cui Guangyuan was surrounded by more than a dozen people, and at this time, his eyes fell on the monks standing in the square, and Cui Guangyuan suddenly had an intuition in his heart, and the assassin he was going to arrest was very likely to be among these monks.

"Report to the county order, the front hall has not been found!"

"Report to the county order, but the monk's house has not been found!"

The officials came back one after another, and at this time, Cui Guangyuan's eyes were firmly fixed on a tall monk in the first row, all the monks lowered their heads, but this one was the only one sneering at him.

Cui Guangyuan suddenly pointed at this person, "Arrest him for me!" ”

"Hah! Ha! Cui Xianling really has a vision. ”

The monk looked up to the sky and laughed, he walked out slowly, and said with a sneer: "That's right, the person you want to arrest is me, and I am Liu Yun's iron brother Ren Haichuan." ”

Dozens of servants rushed up, pressed this person named Ren Haichuan to the ground, tied him up, Cui Guangyuan gave the head catcher a look, the head catcher understood, secretly pulled out the dagger, and walked towards the crowd.

At this moment, there was a loud bang at the gate of the temple, and a large group of cavalry rushed in, and the war horses neighed, startling everyone.

Someone laughed and walked in, "I heard that Cui Xianling captured the assassin Ren Haichuan, so I came to congratulate him!" ”

Cui Guangyuan's heart suddenly fell into the cold cave, only to see Yang Guozhong striding in, followed by Zhao Meng, the secretary of Dali Temple, Zhao Meng gave an order, dozens of Dali Temple officials rushed up with knives, and took Ren Haichuan from the hands of Chang'an County officials.

Cui Guangyuan suddenly understood, Yang Guozhong didn't believe him at all, just asked him to come forward to arrest people, so that the prisoners were caught by Chang'an County and handed over to Dali Temple, they had already been prepared, Cui Guangyuan had a feeling of betrayal in his heart, and watched in a daze as a large group of officials escorted the prisoners away.

'What to do?' Cui Guangyuan is secretly anxious, this assassin accomplice will immediately confess to Xing Xuan, I'm afraid something will happen tonight.

Yang Guozhong patted him on the shoulder with a smile and praised: "This time Cui County ordered the arrest of people to be meritorious, and I will definitely ask the saint to commend your merits." ”

"Thank you Yang Shangshu!" Cui Guangyuan had no choice but to bow down.

Yang Guozhong was extremely proud, waved his hand, and ordered: "Take it back for interrogation!" ”

The large group of people and horses poured out of the temple, and in an instant they were clean, Jia Jilin's face was different, and he quietly slipped away while people were unprepared.

"Cui County Order, what now?" Catcher asked in a low voice.

Cui Guangyuan gritted his teeth, and now that the matter is now, he can only let it go, he took out his name card, picked up a black stone on the ground, wrote the words 'quick escape' on it, and handed it to the catcher: "You go to Xing Xuanfu quickly, give this to him, and tell him that it is difficult to protect his life if he doesn't leave his surname." ”

He quickly said yes and quickly left the monastery.

．．．．．．．． On the one hand, he helped the poor and the weak, made friends, generously helped the righteousness, and had a good reputation among the people, on the other hand, he was good at drilling camps, and Wang Heng's brother Wang Lian had a deep friendship, with Wang Heng as the backstage, it can be said that black and white are mixed with each other.

But Xing Wei is also a character who can't be provoked, those who offend him, he will retaliate mercilessly, without mercy, he also has a few lives in his hands, all of which have been wiped out by him through Wang Hui's power, so in the eyes of many people, Xing Wei also has the name of a murderer.

Xing Wei's mansion is in Jinchengfang in Xishi, it is just dark, Jinchengfang suddenly rushed into a large group of soldiers, there are thousands of people, they are fully armed, murderous, the people on the street are scared to the point of chickens and dogs, every house is closed, in a moment, thousands of soldiers will surround Xing Xuan's mansion to the water, more than a dozen soldiers kicked the door open, a large group of soldiers poured in, and the house suddenly came from the screams of women and begging for mercy.

In an alley about 100 steps away from Xing Xuan's mansion, a man wearing a bamboo hat stared fiercely at the soldiers rushing into Xing's mansion, he gritted his teeth and said: "Good Yang Guozhong, I have no grievances with you, you want to put me to death, let's see." ”

He tugged at the bamboo hat, covered his face, turned and left, and disappeared into the darkness in a moment.

．．．．．．．． The night is getting deeper and deeper, there are soldiers running in line from time to time in Chang'an City, the atmosphere is very tense, although it has not yet reached the moment of closing the door, but the streets and alleys are basically no pedestrians, at this time, a carriage drove into the Kaihuafang, and soon drove away.

The carriage stopped in front of Wang Heng's mansion, and a person walked out of the car, with a worried face, he was Wang Jue, Wang Heng's brother, and he didn't wait for the report, so he walked directly into Wang Heng's mansion.

........ "What! Wang Heng stood up in shock, he couldn't believe his ears, glared at his brother and asked, "You said that Xing Xuan instructed the assassins to assassinate King Di?" ”

Wang Wei nodded and sighed: "In fact, the assassination case must have nothing to do with Xing Wei, this is Yang Guozhong's planting, he knows that I have a deep friendship with Xing Wei, and the final result must be that I am the instigator behind the scenes, and then he pulled out his brother, their sword is actually pointed at the eldest brother, and they want to get rid of the eldest brother." ”

Wang Jue sat down slowly, he also received a report from Jia Jilin in the afternoon, the assassination accomplice was caught, but was robbed by Yang Guozhong, he was also going to Dali Temple tomorrow to ask for someone, but he didn't expect to end up on his body, at this time, he suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly asked: "The assassin who was caught is called Ren Haichuan, are you familiar with it?" ”

"It's him!" Wang Lu's face turned pale suddenly, and his eyes showed horror.

"What, you know him?"

Wang Kun nodded slowly, and said ashamedly: "I didn't tell my eldest brother about this, this Ren Haichuan was originally a warlock, I asked him to show me, but I inadvertently said the wrong thing and scared him away, so I asked Xing Wei to kill this person, but he didn't know where to hide, and his whereabouts have been unknown." ”

"What did you say wrong?" Wang Heng secretly felt bad in his heart.

Wang Lu's lips moved, and he lowered his head for a while and said, "I asked him, do I have a son of heaven?" ”

"What!" Wang Heng was furious, he slapped Wang Kun to the ground, pointed at him and scolded: "You didn't tell me about such a big thing, you really want to kill me." ”

"Big brother, I know it's wrong, but I didn't expect this situation today, big brother, I'm sorry for you."

Wang Heng stood for a long time before he sighed, sat down dejectedly, lowered his head and said nothing, Yang Guozhong was too vicious, he designed step by step, he wanted to put himself to death, as soon as he died, Li Linfu would be finished, what should I do now?

At this time, Wang Kun stood up and said hatefully: "One person does things and one person is responsible, I will turn myself in, if I want to kill or chop, I will bear it alone, and I will never affect the eldest brother." ”

"Bastard!" Wang Heng scolded: "You were arrested, can I get out of it?" ”

Wang Wei sat down weakly, looking at his eldest brother with blank eyes, Wang Jue had calmed down, it should be said that Yang Guozhong did not completely succeed, at least they did not seize Xing Xuan, the most critical person, and there may be a chance to redeem it.

He paced back and forth in the room with his head in his hands, carefully scrutinizing the possible loopholes in his heart, since they had Ren Haichuan, they could completely accuse their brothers of having the words of the emperor to arrest their brothers, but why did they make such a big detour and use the excuse of assassinating King Di to hit themselves, of course, this kind of bitter trick can help King Di enter the East Palace, and in the end, Li Linfu can't escape suspicion, what else is there?

Wang Heng slowly realized that it was probably because Ren Haichuan's one-sided words were not enough to become evidence, so they wanted to expand the matter, and finally formed the assassination case of King Di, that is to say, Ren Haichuan's accusation is actually not important, the important thing is Xing Wei, now that Xing Wei has not been caught by them, then it is difficult for them to accuse him of being instructed by his brother, and the chain of evidence in this is broken.

Thinking of this, Wang Hui immediately asked, "Where is that Xing Wei hiding now?" ”

Seeing that the eldest brother seemed to have a countermeasure, Wang Wei immediately ignited hope in his heart, and hurriedly said: "I have sent Xing Wei out of the city and hid it in my manor, they should not be able to find it." ”

"No way!" Wang Heng said categorically: "They didn't catch Xing Xuan, they will definitely guess that you are hiding, hiding in your manor is too dangerous, they will find it, you go and transfer him away." ”

Wang Jun was startled and stammered: "Big brother, they shouldn't dare to turn their faces and search my manor!" ”

"You bastard!" Wang Heng was so angry that he scolded: "Do you think Yang Guozhong wants to deal with our brother? This is the final battle between him and Li Linfu to seize power, life and death are at stake, this is the assassination of King Di in front of the saint, it is equivalent to assassinating the saint, once Xing Wei is caught, not only Li Linfu will be deposed, our Wang family will also have the disaster of extermination, don't you understand? ”

Wang Kun's face was so pale with fright that he didn't care to speak, he turned around and ran, and the city gate was about to close, and it would be too late if he didn't leave.

Wang Heng's heart was also in turmoil, this matter was very important, he had to inform Li Linfu in time, he put on a piece of clothing, and hurriedly went out.
