Yin's mother didn't expect Ming Yi to directly ask such a sharp question, she was a little caught off guard, stunned for a while, and didn't deny it: "Why do you say that?" ”

Ming Yi naturally couldn't say that she felt wrong when she saw Feng Sihai's portrait, and after a little thought, she was half-truthful: "Although I don't remember what happened when I was a child, I thought about it for a long time, and I felt that Grandpa was far from the person in Yin's mother's mouth." With my mother's talent, I will never be moved by my grandfather. There's no reason for it, it's just a woman's instinct. ”

Yin's mother laughed and said, "A woman's intuition has always been the most powerful reason. The man I like is indeed very different from your grandfather, I have nothing to do with your grandfather, although I know that he is the owner of the gleaning workshop, and occasionally brings guests to the courtyard to socialize, but I have only seen it a few times, and he is a shrewd businessman. ”

Ming Yi continued to ask: "Therefore, I have never understood that Mother Yin is very concerned about my affairs and helps me everywhere. If it's not because of Grandpa, why? Mingyi wouldn't be so big as to think he could be so favored. ”

Mother Yin pondered for a moment: "Mingyi is a smart person, otherwise I wouldn't have proposed to ask you to help me take over the sect." I had all kinds of conveniences with Mingyi at the beginning, and it was indeed because of your grandfather. After the accident in Shijingfang, my boss asked me to approach you to inquire about the news. He thinks that your grandfather's death is related to his family, and suspects that your grandfather is a person in the family, who has done a confidential thing and was killed. ”

Ming Yi was shocked: "That water walk was not an accident?" ”

Mother Yin nodded: "It is very likely that it is man-made, but it's a pity that my boss has sent someone to the scene to check, and there are no traces left." ”

Mingyi's heart was a little confused, and he couldn't sort out a clue in his head. A conspiracy, fire, extinguishment, the background of Feng Sihai, the identity of Shi Chuchu, Yin's mother's backer, the Cui family and the three gangs behind Wu Qianping. There are so many threads that can't be sorted out that can connect these together.

"That confidential matter is not trivial, can you tell me what it is?" She wanted to find a clue, so she found an entry point from Yin's mother's words.

Mother Yin gritted her teeth: "It's a big matter, but since I want to invite you in, it's not easy to hide it." If you've heard it, don't go any further. I have known you for many years, and I have recently been interested in contacting you many times to confirm that you should not know the identity behind your grandfather before I dare to talk to you. There are many things that you may know for the first time, so you must calm down. ”

Ming Yi listened to this plan, afraid that a bombshell would be thrown later, so he took a deep breath: "It's okay, I can stand it." ”

"First, your grandfather is probably from Lijingmen." Mother Yin said as she stared at Ming Yi's face.

The surprise and confusion shown by Ming Yi seemed real: "What is Lijingmen?" A gang? ”

Her heart was already in her throat. This name she remembers, Wu Qianping once said. It's just that he suspects that Yin's mother's backstage is Lijingmen, so it seems that this direction may not be right.

Yin's mother explained: "Lijingmen is a dead soldier trained and selected by the emperor himself, and it is extremely mysterious, and the people who have seen them have never lived. The missions carried out are extremely secret, and most of them are used to spy on the important ministers of the court. ”

Ming Yi broke the casserole and asked, "If it's so mysterious, why would anyone know about their existence?" ”

Yin's mother said with a smile: "No matter how tight the organization is, there are gaps, and it is inevitable that one or two of Lijingmen have been exposed or rebelled by important ministers over the years, and now most of the first products in the DPRK know the existence of this organization, but they have not seen it with their own eyes." ”

"Or does the emperor want the important ministers to know about their existence?" Mingyi muttered to himself.

Mother Yin was stunned and praised it greatly: "Mingyi is really smart, which is also very likely." The emperor probably didn't want to use killing tricks for the courtiers he relied on, but wanted to intimidate. Knowing the existence of this organization, it is better to do things without daring to make mistakes. ”

Ming Yi continued to ask: "Why do you say that my grandfather will be from Lijingmen?" ”

Under the candlelight, Yin's mother's face became more and more solemn: "Do you know about the funeral of Empress Dowager Guo on the first day of June?" It is only said that he died of a sudden illness, but there are many people in Xingqing Palace, and I believe that all parties have known that Empress Dowager Guo has left strangely. ”

Ming Yi felt that the name of the Empress Dowager Guo was familiar, remembered the palace fighting dramas he had seen before, and vaguely remembered that Xuanzong and the Empress Dowager Guo were not on good terms, and her biological mother was the maid of the Empress Dowager Guo. Now that Xuanzong's position is stable, whose eyes can the existence of Empress Dowager Guo hinder? That is, Xuanzong, who left a grudge.

Ming Yi was silent, waiting for Yin's mother to continue to tell.

"My superiors found out that Empress Dowager Guo was in a trance many days before her funeral, world-weary and irritable, and wanted to jump off the building many times. In the end, he actually swallowed gold and died. The death of the Queen Mother is in line with the wishes, and no one will continue to pursue it. It's just that a few days later, the gleaning workshop for the harem for rouge gouache suddenly went out of the water, Feng Sihai died, the main building of the gleaning fang was almost burned, and the tiles did not exist, which was too much of a coincidence. My aunt spoke carefully, looking at Mingyi's face from time to time.

Ming Yi frowned and pondered, and said tentatively: "Could it be that the Queen Mother's mental trance is related to the rouge gouache in the Shijing Fang?" ”

Yin's mother praised: "Mingyi is clear. What you and I can think of, how can the whole court and the middle of the country not think of it? No one would doubt that the Holy Lord's dues were so large, and Zhou Zhang started and then extinguished. The reason for this is that my superiors also found out Feng Sihai's identity after many investigations. ”

Mingyi was whetted for it, and it seemed that he was no longer talking about something related to himself, but a historical mystery.

Things have some twists and turns. It is dissected and is simple, too.

Empress Dowager Guo, Ma Yuanzhen, Tang Xuanzong, Feng Sihai.

Empress Dowager Guo is an abandoned pawn, although she annoys the emperor, but it doesn't matter whether she lives or dies.

Ma Yuanzhen is the biggest hero of Xuanzong's ascendancy, he has been relying on meritorious deeds for a long time, and his power is getting bigger and bigger. If you want to get rid of it, you can't fall into the pretext of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge for no reason. If it is not removed, the imperial power will not be solid.

Feng Sihai's rouge gouache can enter the palace, and it is only after feeding Ma Yuanzhen that the road is paved.

The death of the Queen Mother, the emperor, Ma Yuanzhen and Nan Ya all took care of it, and it was related to the rouge of Shijingfang. If this layer of paper is pierced, Ma Yuanzhen will not be clean. At this time, the Shijing Fang was burned, Feng Sihai died without a corpse, and everyone would also point to Ma Yuanzhen.

Ma Yuanzhen's motive will be regarded as speculating on the holy will and wanting to invite favor.

At this time, Xuanzong let the matter go unresolved and suppressed Nan Ya to prevent him from investigating. This obviously saved Ma Yuanzhen, and even did not hesitate to be regarded as a murderer and did not want Ma Yuanzhen's life. In this way, whether Ma Yuanzhen wanted to or not, he had to accept Xuanzong's proposal to reduce the Shence army on the grounds of reducing expenses.

Empress Dowager Guo and Feng Sihai had two lives, in exchange for the beginning of the decline of the Northern Division.
