Chapter 296: The Death of Huijue
At night, Huijue meditated in the meditation room, and the string of Buddhist beads that had accompanied him for more than ten years was still in his hand.
The door was pushed open, and someone walked in.
Huijue opened his eyes and saw that it was Qu Hanjiang, he was not surprised, but said lightly: "You are here." ”
"Of course I want to come, after all, I want to congratulate Master Huijue on becoming the next abbot master of Tianying Temple." When Qu Hanjiang said the words "Master Abbot", he was full of sarcasm.
"You don't have to be so sarcastic." A touch of sadness flashed in Huijue's eyes, he heard a lot of things outside the meditation room that day, he knew that Gu Shiqi was Qu Hanjiang, the eldest son of the Qu family, the cold wind was Qu Hanfeng, the second son of the Qu family, and the crown princess was Qu Hanyi, the youngest daughter of the Qu family.
"Huijue, stepping on the lives of the Qu family's hundreds of ten people, sitting in the position of the current abbot, are you satisfied?" Qu Hanjiang asked.
Hui Jue sighed: "Lao Wei thought he was a friend of Hou Ye Qu back then, but in the end, he personally let him drink the glass of wine with cartilage. Over the years, Lao Gao has never forgotten the life of the Qu family, which is a pain that Lao Gao can't bear in this life. ”
Hui Jue thought of Lianzhi, he had seen Qu Hanyi when he was playing against Qu Shulin, such a cute and intelligent little girl, because he lost his relatives and even fell into a situation of brother and sister cannibalism.
"What's the point of you pretending to say this now?" Qu Hanjiang asked, "My father believes in you so much, but you are Wen Xize's person, you listened to Wen Xize's order and put cartilage in his wine, are you worthy of my father?" ”
Huijue looked at the bead string in his hand: "This string of Buddhist beads has accompanied Lao Wei for more than ten years, and it is a gift from Quhou Ye to Lao Gao." In the past ten years, the old man has been holding the Buddha beads in his hand, and he is in the boundless hell, in fact, from the moment the old man was poisoned, this world has become the hell of the old man. It's a pity that the old man has no choice, the Qu family is not destroyed, and the Ying Temple will be destroyed that day......"
"Huijue, the sins you have done will be repaid after all." Qu Hanjiang asked, "You can't help yourself, why do you want the Qu family to pay?" ”
Blood spilled down the corners of Huijue's mouth, and Qu Hanjiang's heart was unmoved.
"Lao Wei should have died a long time ago, you can't dirty your hands anymore, you can see the orphans of the Qu family today, and Lao Gao has no regrets in this life." Huijue slowly fell, "A person like Lao Wei is destined to go to hell after death, but there is no reason not to repay the debt......
Looking at the angry Huijue, Qu Hanjiang didn't feel anything, Huijue chose to cut himself, just because of guilt.
The next day, Wen Xize received a message from Wen Zhiyu that Hui Jue had passed away last night, and at the same time he stayed by his side with a piece of paper with strange patterns drawn.
Wen Xize looked at the pattern drawn on the paper and handed it to Fu Sheng next to him: "Fu Sheng, look at the pattern on this, is it similar to the pattern on Li Sheng's body when he died." ”
Fu Sheng looked at the pattern: "This pattern is indeed a little familiar. "The more Fu Sheng looks, the more wrong it becomes," this pattern seems to be printed on the family tree of the Zhu family. ”
"The Zhu family?" Wen Xize took the drawing paper again and looked at it, and the more he looked at it, the more it looked, "Concubine Rong!" ”
"Your Majesty, could it be that someone deliberately framed Concubine Rong?" Fu Sheng asked.
Wen Xize thought for a while: "During this time, you pay attention to the situation on Concubine Rong's side. Back then, there were only a few people who knew the inside story, and they all died. You say it's not Concubine Rong, who will it be? ”
Wen Xize's eyes fell on Fu Sheng, Fu Sheng's heart was shocked, the emperor doubted himself.
Indeed, about the Qu family and the Zhu family back then, the people who knew about it were Li Sheng, Huijue, Concubine Rong, Wen Xize and himself, but now that Li Sheng and Huijue are dead, only himself and Concubine Rong can be suspected. If Concubine Rong hadn't done it, wouldn't she be the only one left?
"Your Majesty, the old slave is worried that someone else will know about the events of the year." Fu Sheng replied, "The old slave is loyal to you and will never betray you. ”
"That's why I asked you to look at Concubine Rong more."
"Yes!" Fu Sheng breathed a sigh of relief.
"On that side of the Ying Temple that day, who else is suitable to be the abbot?" Wen Xize asked.
Fu Sheng thought for a while and replied, "Then there is only Silence and Dao He." ”
"It's really time for Huijue to die." Wen Xize was a little angry in his heart, he finally cultivated a person in Tianying Temple, but he didn't expect to die as soon as he became the abbot, he only hoped that Shan Ming and Daohe would not let him down.
Soon, Wen Zhiyu received news from Wen Xize, and he and Lianzhi went to see Daohe and Shanming respectively.
Silence seemed to have expected Lianzhi to come, and invited her in: "Crown princess." ”
There was almost nothing in the silent meditation room, and after Lianzhi came in, he didn't even have a place to sit, so he could only stand.
Lianzhi looked at Silence, perhaps in this Tianying Temple, he is the only one who is truly pure in heart and few desires and practices Buddhism.
"Master Silence, the purpose of this palace coming to you today, you must already know."
In terms of Silence's open-mindedness, he must have guessed that Lianzhi came to him for the next abbot.
Sure enough, as expected by Lianzhi, Silent Ming refused: "The old man has long wanted to take care of the mundane things in the temple, the prince and the princess can afford the old man, and the old man is very happy, but the abbot is worthy of it." ”
Lianzhi didn't force it: "This palace understands." ”
Lianzhi didn't stay long and left directly. Looking at the door that had been closed again, Silent Ming shook his head, he could see everything clearly, but he couldn't save Huijue.
Whether it was the affairs of the Qu family and the Zhu family back then, or the affairs of Tianying Temple now, he could not recover it. Since this is the case, then you can only stay out of the matter and cultivate his Buddha path with peace of mind!
Lianzhi walked back and happened to meet Wen Zhiyu: "It seems that the Tao is in harmony, right?" ”
Wen Zhiyu nodded: "He promised me that Tianying Temple will never be involved in the battle for the throne, but it will always be loyal to the emperor of Western Chu." ”
"This should be the best ending." Lianzhi didn't understand why Huijue died suddenly, but Huijue's death was not necessarily a good thing for her and Wen Zhiyu's situation.
"The matter of Tianying Temple is over, and we can go back to the palace in two days." Wen Zhiyu looked at Lianzhi, "In a few days it will be my father's birthday, and the palace should have begun to prepare in advance." ”
"I heard Gu Shiqi say that Wen Zhiyan kept making small moves after he went back, and I was afraid that he wanted to take advantage of this birthday to make a move." Lianzhi was a little worried, "Concubine Rong didn't know when she had contact with Wen Zhiyan, it should be for Wen Miqing's marriage." ”
"What should come will always come." Wen Zhiyu replied lightly, "And after so long, Wen Zhiyu has also found out some things that should be investigated, at this time, Wen Zhiyan has a connection with Concubine Rong, what do you think my father will think?" ”
"But the emperor said that he would never see Wen Zhiyu again."
"Wen Zhiyu, as the son of his father's favorite once, do you think his father can really ignore him at all?"
Lianzhi understood what Wen Zhiyu meant, she suddenly remembered another thing, and asked with some hesitation: "Did you already know that I was not the princess of Dongxia?" ”
Wen Zhiyu didn't hide it, and nodded directly: "That's right." ”
"Actually, I used to be the killer next to Fan Ninghuai, and then Dongxia and Xichu wanted to get married, but Lin Wanyang didn't want to get married, so Fan Ninghuai let me come." Lianzhi said very calmly, but Wen Zhiyu heard the difficulty: "Can he abandon you so easily?" ”
"yes, I didn't expect him to abandon me so easily. But I'm also glad that it was because of his abandonment that I met you. ”
In fact, Wen Zhiyu had guessed Lianzhi's identity before, but the killer was something he didn't dare to think about, a killer, and his past life was dark.
If the Qu family had not changed, Lianzhi would still be the third lady of the Qu family, Qu Hanyi, who would never have become a killer.
Lianzhi continued: "When I was living on the streets of Dongxia, it was Fan Ninghuai who brought me back to the palace, and I was very grateful to him at that time. In order to repay him, I tried to do my best, it was not easy to become his most relied on killer, but I did it, so I was confident that I would never be abandoned by him. But I didn't expect that no matter how powerful the killer is, it will not be irreplaceable, and when there is a conflict of interests, the killer will always be the one who can be discarded. ”
Lianzhi can't even remember those pasts clearly, maybe because he has been bathed in the sun for too long, and has forgotten the coldness and darkness of the past.
Wen Zhiyu suddenly hugged Lian Zhi tightly: "In my place, you are irreplaceable." No matter who you are, you are the only one for me. ”
Lian Zhi wrapped his arms around Wen Zhiyu's waist: "I believe in you, I have trusted you a long, long time ago. So even though there are many dangers, I still come to you without hesitation. The next road, as long as you don't leave, I will never give up! ”
Wen Zhiyu forcibly held back the sourness in his eyes, he didn't dare to think about what Lianzhi had suffered before, so he was so afraid of being abandoned. He swore in his heart that in this life, he would never give up the lotus ......
