Xuanyi dropped the shovel in his hand and dusted off his body.

White kudzu cloth monk's robe, soap-colored gold-rimmed robe. Under the blood-colored moonlight, he was awe-inspiring and detached, and his eyes became demons. It is the appearance of the person in Yang Wanwan's dream.

He walked to the center of the clearing, met Huo Lanyuan's gaze, and was facing the direction of the Golden Buddha, and he could see that the Golden Buddha's eyes were dark red, and there were many evils. The corners of its mouth were stained with blood, and the color of blood was continuous. Bloodlust runs high.

"Gu Yansheng and his apprentices are both people from the crown prince Li Jiancheng. That's why you keep saying that they are wrong because they chose the wrong master. And the abbot of Bianzhen, Uncle Shijian, no, maybe it is better to call him Yan Xingyun, their righteousness is to oppose today's son, or in other words, it is the best to take his life.

You said that the illness of the Son of Heaven originated from this "Golden Buddha", presumably this Golden Buddha also has hidden mysteries. But I clearly remember that this golden Buddha was built by the abbot of Bianzhen entrusted by the Shen family. Thinking about it this way, the Shen family is also involved. This conspiracy must also have a share of the Shen family.

As for Shen Pingru of the Shen family, I can't figure out why he, as a businessman, should be involved in such a rebellion case, unless he ...... He was originally the person of the crown prince Li Jiancheng. ”

Huo Lanyuan chuckled, "You guessed right. I once obtained a letter from Shen Pingru to Shen Qingjun. He laid the way for his daughter, and I was the one he chose to protect his daughter. But he was afraid that Shen Qingjun would be too upright and unwilling to live alone, so he left this letter to tell most of the truth one by one. After she looks at it, she chooses the path she wants to take. Unfortunately, the letter ended up in my hands. ”

Xuan Yi was a little surprised, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, "That letter must have explained the situation of the Shen family clearly, didn't it?"

"That's true. "Huo Lanyuan has to answer questions at this time, not at all like the person who desperately tried to kill Xuanyi last night," the letter said that the Shen family was the 'knife' raised by the crown prince Li Jiancheng among the people. Li Jiancheng once showed favor to the Shen family, so he received the Shen family's favor and was willing to be one of his 'knives'. ”

When Xuan Yi first encountered the temple of the court, he couldn't understand it for a while, "What is the use of raising a 'knife' among the people?"

Huo Lanyuan sneered, but he still replied as carefully as possible: "This is very useful. One can gain insight into the public rumors, and the other can eavesdrop on the privacy of officials.

When today's son made great achievements in the Jinyang army against the Sui and the Quartet campaign, he was loved by the people and supported by officials. Except for the first emperor secretly helping the crown prince, what is the point of the useless prince of the East Palace who can compare with the current Son of Heaven? But why, before the Xuanwumen tragedy, the current prince was always under the oppression of Li Jiancheng? Then why was Li Jiancheng able to gain the upper hand and openly and secretly plot several murders against the prince?"

Genichi shook his head, "I don't know. ”

Huo Lanyuan was not surprised at all, his eyes narrowed, as if he was smiling, and looked at the monk a few meters away, "The key to Li Jiancheng's ability to gain the upper hand in the battle for the crown is on the 'knife' of the Shen family."

Fire trees and silver flowers, the city that never sleeps. Shen Pingru, a restaurant full of the fame of the Tang Dynasty - never sleeps, was originally an exclusive intelligence agency of the prince full of eyeliner and lackeys. Think about it, who in this Datang official secretly doesn't have some cats?

They may be in fear at home, full of secrets, unknown to those who are asleep. But once you get to the restaurant, the singer is silky and bamboo, and the rice wine is in the stomach. Wouldn't it be easy to find out some secrets they don't want to be known and pry their mouths open?"

"Handle, Li Jiancheng has mastered the handle of many dignitaries and dignitaries through the night sky. Then they took advantage of the weakness of each of them to threaten each other, and forced officials to help him succeed in the matter of competing for the throne. Xuan Yi immediately understood why Shen Pingru was a "knife".

This "knife" pierced the window paper and put it on the necks of many courtiers and officials, threatening and forcing them to lean towards their camp.

"The incompetent prince of the East Palace, only in terms of employing people, can be compared with today's son. Shen Pingru and Gu Yansheng are like the two shadows of the prince, unknown, but they help each other all the time. One side is hidden in the market, and the other side is hidden in the palace, forming a network covering the whole Chang'an.

And Li Jiancheng is like a poisonous spider, entrenched on the Internet, and he can gain insight into today's every move, so that he can always be one step ahead of today's son.

His Majesty knew very well that in fact, even the people in the entire palace knew that the poisoning must have been done by Li Jiancheng. How could the first emperor not be clear, but he pretended to be confused and did things hastily. is so eccentric, if Your Majesty doesn't strike first, I'm afraid that it will not be long in life. ”

Xuan Yi couldn't help but be a little amused when he heard Huo Lanyuan's words and words defending the actions of the Son of Heaven, "Huo Lanyuan, when did you also have great righteousness?

In the final analysis, there is no difference between you and Gu Yansheng and Shen Pingru. It's just that they happen to be on opposite sides, each for its own master. If the Son of Japan is not your one, then everything will be completely different. Whoever is right or wrong, familiar with evil and familiar with good, will all have to turn around.

In this history, there is never right or wrong, only winning and losing. ”

Xuan Yi understood a lot in Huo Lanyuan's words, and couldn't help but feel that the court's power and scheming were more difficult to understand than the thousands of Buddhist scriptures, "Aren't you afraid that the wall has ears? He said that it was Li Jiancheng who first rebelled, and in order to protect the Tang Dynasty, he had to kill his brother. But now you say that he just made the first move, so you are not afraid that your Son of Heaven will hear about it and punish you for the crime of rebellion?"

Huo Lanyuan didn't care, and laughed a few times, "There are only you and me here." What's more, you and I both know that tonight, someone will die. What else am I afraid of?"

He looked at the Blood Moon Crimson, and then at Xuanyi's shocked face, "What do you think is the truth?" ”

"In the ninth year of Wude, when today's son killed his brother and his brother outside the Xuanwu Gate, he also slaughtered everyone related to it. Their wives and daughters, their maidservants, their slaves...... Presumably, without exception.

Shen Pingru survived because he had been hidden in the market and was not detected. The masters and apprentices led by Gu Yansheng were not so lucky to get out.

Gu Yansheng and his apprentices were sentenced to death for treason against the party. But in fact, only Gu Yansheng died. His disciples used a certain method to break off the shell of the golden cicada, came to the deserted South Ridge, and built the Garan Temple...... Wait for a child to arrive.

Since then, they have given up their common names and pretended to be monks, with the words of 'dialectic', 'interpretation', and 'Jingdu'...... The Dharma name that raised me to grow up. Xuanyi guessed.

"So, why do you think they raised you, and what is special about you?"
