The light of the fire shines the night like day.

As if he had overheard about Mo Cheng's burning of Qingshan Temple, he hurriedly rushed back to Qingshan Temple from the secret passage and came to the abbot.

The abbot saw surprise in her eyes, and then helplessness.

It was as if he stretched out his hand and pulled up the abbot: "Abbot, come with me, I'll take you out." ”

The abbot shook his head, took his hand back, and sighed helplessly: "I won't leave, I want to live and die with Qingshan Temple." ”

seemed to be stunned by his words, and then said even more frightened: "Abbot, let's leave first, and then build a Qingshan Temple, if you are reluctant to those people, I will take them away." ”

The abbot shook his head: "This will only arouse the emperor's suspicion, I want to stay here, there will always be only one Qingshan Temple, and if you build another one, it will no longer be Qingshan Temple." ”

After speaking, he looked at the things around him with some regret, sighed, and looked at Wanru: "You leave first, you won't be able to leave when the fire gets bigger." ”

Just looking at the abbot like this, she knew that no matter what she said, the abbot would not leave, and tears couldn't help but slip from her eyes.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry......" she apologized, tears streaming down her eyes, "I should have died in the first place, and I wouldn't have caused so much trouble to Qingshan Temple." ”

Back then, Wanru's collision, just injured, comatose, not dead, after Mo Cheng's people left, the abbot found that Wanru was not dead, and he couldn't bear to hurt a life, so he saved Wanru, as if the abbot had always been very grateful, but looking at the current Qingshan Temple, the feeling of guilt permeated the heart.

"If only I had died, he wouldn't have implicated Qingshan Temple." It was like repeating sentence by sentence, and she didn't know what else to say.

The abbot looked at her like this, sighed, and comforted: "You don't have to blame yourself like this at all, you save a life because your life should not be extinguished, we will naturally not watch you die, our Qingshan Temple was burned, that is also our life, and it has nothing to do with you." ”

Hearing the abbot say this, it seemed that he naturally knew that the abbot was just comforting himself, and the tears flowed more, but he didn't want the abbot to worry anymore, so he forced himself to stop crying, looked at the abbot and asked, "Please follow us and leave!" Just you, I will arrange it, and I won't let Mo Cheng find out anything wrong. ”

The abbot shook his head: "The so-called arrangement is to change someone to die for me, how can I die for the sake of others I harmed, you don't need to persuade me anymore." ”

As if seeing him so resolute, with tears in his eyes, looking at him helplessly, the abbot saw Wanru's embarrassment, and persuaded him loudly: "You leave quickly, I have lived to such an age and have nothing to remember in this world, but you are different." ”

As if he still didn't want to leave, seeing that the abbot still wanted to try to persuade him again, the abbot spoke: "Think about it, you still have children, get out of here quickly, it's too late." ”

Hearing that the abbot moved Mo Jingli out, he seemed to be quiet, hesitated for a while, and began to retreat: "I'm sorry." The last sentence of apology was spoken, and tears flowed again.

After looking at the abbot for a while, he turned around and left, entered the secret passage in the firelight, and left Qingshan Temple.

Seeing that it was like leaving, the abbot breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Qingshan Temple, sighed, and closed his eyes.

In the palace, the guards hurriedly reported. After greeting the people, he said in a hurried tone: "Back to the emperor, no one survived." ”

I saw Mo Cheng listening quietly, he had carried too much killing, and there was not the slightest regret on his face.

looked coldly at the guards in front of him, silent. I don't know what I'm thinking, but after a while, I said, "Go check the number of corpses and see how many people there were here." ”

The guard, who received the order, said yes and quickly retreated. The pace was swift, and he soon came back to report the results.

"Back to the emperor, the number of corpses matches the original number of people here." The guard replied respectfully.

At this time, Mo Cheng's heart gradually became cold, his eyes narrowed, and his whole body revealed a dangerous aura.

Looking sideways at the emperor and angry, the guards only felt that their whole body was in a cold sweat, afraid that their lives would be buried here in the next second.

The guards hurried to investigate, passing by many informants, but in the end they found nothing. This surprised the people who came to investigate, how he went back to report to the emperor.

I had no choice but to go back and report the results.

Mo Cheng, who heard the result, was furious, swept his hands, and threw all the teacups on the table to the ground.

Hearing a plop, the guard knelt on the ground and said repeatedly: "The emperor forgives the sin, and the minister is not in a good position." ”

The guard's action, Mo Cheng looked at it coldly, and he didn't speak, but he didn't know what he was calculating in his heart, which made the guard shudder.

Suddenly, Mo Cheng's slightly squinted eyes opened, and he swept the guard with cold eyes. "I have a habit, do you know what it is?" There was a cold feeling in the tone, which made people shudder.

The guards listened and said tremblingly: "Back to the emperor, Weichen doesn't know." As he spoke, he wanted to answer something but couldn't say it, and he wanted to speak several times and stopped.

In fact, the guard wanted to ask about the next investigation, but he still didn't get in. But he didn't dare to ask when the words came to his mouth, and if he didn't make it, his life would be gone.

For a long time, Mo Cheng said gloomily: "Those who participated in this investigation, I don't want the second one to live, go ahead." ”

Listening to the emperor's order, this made the guards tremble, and a cold sweat came out in an instant, thinking that he was also a member of it, it really made him feel extremely frightened.

For the emperor's approach, the guards dared to be angry in their hearts, thinking about how many people's blood he stepped on when he ascended the throne.

However, now that he was going to kill the people involved in the investigation, he was terrified.

Here, Mo Jingli returned to King Qi's mansion, and wanted to go to see his princess, but there was a secret guard looking for him, so he went to the study to deal with things.

"What, Aoyamaji Temple was burned." Mo Jingli was a little surprised by the news he suddenly heard, and he didn't ease up for a while.

"Yes." The Dark Guard replied.

To make sure that he heard correctly, Mo Jingli's eyes darkened, and he asked silently, "Is it the emperor's order?" This sentence is not an inquiring tone, but an attempt to be sure. Listen, the Dark Guard replied yes.

Knowing this, Mo Jingli was very annoyed in his heart, which made the originally warm room instantly feel a little more air-conditioned.

Mo Jingli, who was about to do something, was about to say something, when he heard someone say: "Go back to the prince, Wang Liang asks to see." Mo Jingli nodded and motioned for Wang Liang to come in.

Wang Liang, who was allowed to go in, said his intention directly after saluting.

"Lord Wang, the minister is here to form an alliance with you, I don't know what the prince wants." Wang Liang said respectfully.

"Why do I see that this king will agree to an alliance with you?" Mo Jingli was expressionless on his face, and his voice sounded coldly.

Listening to his words, Wang Liang smiled and said, "Because we have a common enemy, I believe that the prince will not know it." ”

"Oh, what about the common enemy, this king thinks as much as he wants, and doesn't want to think about it. Why do you think you can get this king to agree? He laughed coldly, and his words were also very cold, with some of the domineering spirit of a king.

"The minister thinks this is a happy event for the minister, for you, and especially for the princess. We can be the same enemy, don't you think? In the end, especially when it was the princess, Wang Liang deliberately increased the volume.

I saw Mo Jingli listening to Wang Liang's words, the corners of his mouth rose upward, and he said without a trace of hesitation: "That's right, you are the first one who dares to talk to this king about conditions like this." Still, Ben Wang likes your analysis. After saying that, he laughed.

So, the two who reached the front line began to discuss the next plan.

"Lord Wang, the minister thinks that the problem today is that we have little military power in our hands, as long as we can get the military talisman, we can have seventy percent certainty." Yuliang thought about it and analyzed.

Listening to Yuliang's words, Mo Jingli nodded and said, "That's right, this king thinks the same way." But the talisman is in the palace, and this is a bit difficult. As he spoke, he frowned and pondered.

"Soldier talismans, generally in the emperor's palace to deal with government affairs, but it will definitely not be on the bright side, there should be a dark grid." Mo Jingli frowned and analyzed carefully.

Looking at his own prince frowning, Yuliang smiled and said, "It's okay, this matter will be handed over to the minister, and the minister will take the talisman back." ”

"Okay, I'll have to work hard for you, but be careful." Mo Jingli solemnly advised. Then, he called out the secret guard and asked the secret guard to follow Wang Liang and obey the dispatch.

In this way, the two decided to steal the talisman. After leaving the palace, Wang Liang and the secret guard hurried towards the palace.

In front of the palace gate, the guards stopped Wang Liang and them, and their duties for many years made their tone cold: "Stop, what kind of person." ”

Wang Liang said with a flattering face: "The villain is from the Qi Palace, and he was ordered to send something to the emperor." ”

"You said that it was someone from King Qi's Mansion, is there any evidence? This is the palace, depending on the evidence. "Obviously, the guards guarding the door didn't believe it.

In desperation, Wang Liang took out a few ingots of silver, gave them them, and took out the waist card, showed them it, and said, "Look at my memory, I forgot to show the waist card to the adults." ”

Flipping the silver in his hand, several guards smiled, and the guard at the head said, "Don't forget it next time, go in." Then he said to the people inside to let him go.

So the two entered the palace, led by Mo Jingli's secret guard, and went to the room where the talisman was placed, and Wang Liang followed all the way.

Entering the main hall, the two began to search, and suddenly, they found a mechanism on the cabinet in the main hall. Turning the antique vase on the cabinet, a dark grid emerges from the back.

The two glanced at each other, and hurriedly opened the secret door to get the talisman.

Unfortunately, at this critical juncture, I suddenly heard someone coming. This caused both of them to panic.
