792. The Dusty Past
As if she was a primary school student holding a certificate of merit and looking forward to praise, Ye Jingjing felt that her heart was as sweet as being filled with honey, and the great sense of satisfaction made her feel happy in her heart.
Seeing a smile blooming on Ye Jingjing's face, Emperor Qianling was relieved, and then changed to a serious expression and said to Wuyun, "I came back from the county yamen just now, and things are obviously not what you think.
"When I found out that this case was related to the incident a few years ago, I had the idea of investigating it again, so I asked the county magistrate to show me the file of that year, and sure enough, I found something interesting.
"This Master Wuyun, the reason why you hate Master Mingli so much is because your master is a disciple of Mingfa, right?"
Hearing this, Ye Jingjing was stunned, she didn't expect that there was such a relationship in this.
Wuyun nodded, at this time he looked generous, and there was no concealment on his face, "Yes, Master has the best relationship with Master Mingfa, I have been exposed to it since I was a child, and naturally I have a different respect for this master." ”
Emperor Qianling smiled, but there was no trace of a smile in his eyes, his eyes were far sharper than a sharp eagle, as if he was looking at the prey that he was determined to get, "In this way, it seems that you killed Mingli to avenge your ancestor, it is not difficult to guess."
"But have you ever thought that in fact, Master Mingli is innocent, and the Master Mingfa that you defend in every possible way is the real prisoner?"
"What did you say?!"
Wu Yunru was hit hard, stayed where he was, and quickly came back to his senses and roared at Emperor Qianling, "You are talking nonsense, don't think that if a person dies, you can throw dirty water on him......"
"I'm not talking nonsense, you'll understand after reading this dossier."
Emperor Qianling nodded towards Qi Wushuang, who immediately gave the dossier to Wuyun.
Wuyun looked at the dossier, then at the Emperor Qianling, and said angrily, "You and the government must be in collusion......
"Are you so afraid to look at it?" Emperor Qianling asked rhetorically.
Wuyun didn't continue arguing with him, grabbed the file and glanced at it quickly.
However, his face changed instantly, first in horror, then in disbelief, and finally in anger, "This is fake! I don't believe it! ”
He slammed the file on the ground, pointed at the Emperor Qianling and roared, "You people from the government don't have a good thing!" The county order of Baisong County should not have been hastily closed......"
"We have no grievances or enmity with Master Mingfa, so naturally we will not frame him; In the same way, we have nothing to do with Master Mingli, and of course we will not speak for him.
"What's more, he himself has been a fool for most of his life, and the argument of bribing us doesn't work."
Emperor Qianling replied lightly, and in a few words, Wuyun was speechless.
"And I dare to vouch for my life, everything written on this dossier is true."
Wuyun stared at him directly, and for a long time, the expression that had been tense slowly relaxed, revealing a sad and unquestionable look, "How is this possible...... How is this possible? ”
"What the hell is going on? What is written on the dossier? Ye Jingjing hurriedly asked.
Emperor Qianling reassured her, "Don't worry, I was about to say." It's been so long, it's time to give an explanation to the White Pine Temple. ”
He looked at the abbot, "Abbot, I wonder if I can release the contents of the file to you?" ”
The abbot's sad and old face slowly flashed a wry smile, "The matter has come to this, what else can't be said?" This official, please speak. ”
Emperor Qianling nodded, "Okay, then I'll talk about it." At that time, Mingli, Mingxing and Mingfa had a good relationship, but later there was a dispute......"
"It is said that it is because the abbot prefers the gifted and intelligent Ming Fa." Ye Jingjing interjected.
Emperor Qianling shook his head, "No, of course, the disciples of the Buddhist Sect will not cause conflicts because of this trivial matter, and the real fuse is a jar of gold." ”
"Gold?" The abbot had a puzzled expression. "Why have you never heard of it?"
Emperor Qianling sighed, and seemed to be sighing about this matter, "This is already a dusty thing in the past, and it's normal that you don't know."
When the three of them were out on a tour, they happened to see a family burying a jar of gold in the ground, trying to avoid the official who collected taxes. Because the other party was a monk, the family didn't take it to heart, and felt that it didn't matter if they saw it.
But he didn't know that greedy thoughts had quietly grown in the hearts of the three men. The three of them had no sleep all night, and after discussion, they actually decided to snatch the gold, return to the White Pine Temple to hide, and wait for the limelight to pass before taking it out and enjoying it.
"The place where they traveled was far away from the White Pine Temple, and the lost owner would not suspect the three monks at the first time, even if they really suspected it, they were afraid that they had returned to the White Pine Temple at that time, and the lost owner did not know where they came from, so he could only consider himself unlucky.
It is not known why the three men suddenly became greedy, but the result was that they succeeded and came back to bury the gold in the ground.
"But they had a dispute over the distribution, so the three of them went their separate ways, and even thought about how to kill the other two every day and take the ill-gotten wealth for themselves."
As soon as he said this, everyone looked at each other, and the abbot felt even more gloomy.
There is such a big event in the temple, if it spreads, the White Pine Temple will definitely not be able to turn over.
Emperor Qianling continued, "Actually, the kindest of them all is Master Mingli, he even decided to return the gold and surrender himself, but Mingxing and Mingfa would not agree, and these two people also had the idea of killing in their hearts.
That night, the three of them gathered in the side hall, and then they died and fled and went crazy, and the one who escaped also died in an accident. Everyone thought that it was Ming Fa who killed people, but Wuyun and his master thought that Ming Li killed people.
"But in fact, Mingli is the only one who didn't do it, and Mingfa and Mingxing both want to take advantage of today to end each other. Although the person who had been cleaning the side hall at that time was Mingli, as far as I know, Mingxing would come to help him every day.
"So, in fact, Ming Xing set up a mechanism in the side hall, used the principle of pulley lever to move the Buddha statue, and used it to smash the Ming Fa ......"
"Wait, the one who was stoned to death by the Buddha statue was not Uncle Mingxing?!" The abbot hurriedly interrupted the Emperor's Mausoleum.
"It seems that our previous speculation was correct, because the faces of the two people happened to be destroyed, so they actually swapped identities." Ye Jingjing expressed her guess.
Emperor Qianling nodded approvingly, "Yes, that's exactly the case." Ming Xing used this method to smash Ming Fa to death, but judging from the later results, the two had a fight before, and Ming Fa stabbed Ming Xing with a knife, but he did not stab the vital point.
"And Mingli next to him didn't expect that the brothers would kill each other, and he felt that he was ashamed of the Buddha to steal other people's belongings with greed, and he finally couldn't bear it in his heart, so he went crazy."
