Wang Tianci has been a little restless these days.

Since the day of the fight and Gao Ming's separation, he went to Chen Liuruan's house again, nominally for the marriage of his sister Wang Tianyun and Ruan Jie, the son of the Ruan family. Secretly, it was to convey the opinions of the two three princes of the Wang family to the Ruan family: The dispute over the throne of the Huangfu family is a private matter of the Huangfu family, and our Jinyang Wang family will never participate in this matter. And Ruan Zhen, the head of the Ruan family, also made it clear that Chen Liu's Ruan family fully agreed with the decision of the Jinyang royal family, and the Ruan family promised not to participate in the battle for the throne of the Huangfu family.

Although Wang Tianci only ran away from Chen Liuruan's family, he knew that the remaining six surnamed families of the Wang family also sent people over, and the replies they got were all without exception, they all fully agreed with the decision of the Jinyang Wang family, and promised not to participate in the battle for the throne of the Huangfu family.

Wang Tianci felt a little confused about this.

He is extremely clear about the ability and talent of the abolished crown prince Huang Fu Yu, and the ability and talent of Huang Fu Mi, the son of Empress Jia Zhi, are simply compared to the moonlight compared to Huang Fu Yu. And there is a more important consideration in Wang Tianci's heart, that is, Empress Jia Zhi has been reusing monks from a poor family all these years, and Huang Fuyu has clearly stated that when he inherits the throne, he will restore the measures of Emperor Wu's early years, that is, to manage the world again in strict accordance with the Jiupin Zhongzheng system.

He remembered that his wife and grandfather Situ Wang Rong had said many times that to govern the world, the Jiupin Zhongzheng system was the king, even if it seemed to have so many problems now. Emperor Wu's reuse of Hanmen monks in his last years was perverse, and the Great Jin Dynasty would be chaotic in the hands of these Hanmen monks in the future. Although he didn't understand his grandfather's words, his grandfather Wang Rong's views have gone through so many years and so many things, and countless times have proved the widely circulated sentence of the Great Jin monks: Situ Wang Rong is always right!

At that time, when the crown prince Fuyu was convicted, when his grandfather Wang Rong and Wang Yan had different opinions, most of the backbone of the family were originally accustomed to thinking of the myth that Situ Wang Rong was always right, but in the end, after one night, Wang Rong personally announced that he would give up his views and support Wang Yan's decision.

Wang Tianci later asked Wang Rong this question in person. He didn't ask for himself, many elders in his family wanted to know why, and he Wang Tianci had always been the most loved by Wang Rong.

"Tianci, do you believe in the destiny of heaven?" That night, Wang Rong sat in the backyard and asked Wang Tianci, his eyes flashing with wisdom.

Wang Tianci shook his head: "Grandpa, the son is silent. I've read the books of the saints since I was a child, and of course I don't believe in these things. ”

Wang Rong smiled: "I used to understand this way. But then I realized that I had misunderstood. Zi is silent, it is not that Zi said that there is no strange power. There are too many things in this world that we can't see and can't imagine, and there are too many strange forces that are chaotic. Your grandfather once thought that the Great Jin Longxing was the destiny of heaven, but now it seems that he is probably wrong. The true Destiny may be someone else, and you will definitely meet this Destiny in the future. ”

"Prince, is he the man of destiny?"

"He's not. Wang Rong shook his head and said, "He is just that sacrifice, the sacrifice that opens the way to the destiny of heaven for the people of the mandate of heaven." It's going to be a mess in this world!"

"Then grandpa, if it's really as you said, then why don't we stop it?"

"This is destiny! This is the fate of all of us!"

After that night, Wang Tianci thought a lot. From the bottom of his heart, he didn't believe what his grandfather said that night, maybe his grandfather was too old and had lost his previous wisdom.

Tianxingjian, a gentleman strives for self-improvement!

This is also what the sage said.

Even if there is any destiny, then my king Tianci will never bow to the destiny of heaven so easily. Things are man-made, if you don't work hard, where will you know that it can't be done?

Therefore, Wang Tianci went to Hongdu Academy, so he tried it with Zhang Bubi, and he wanted to create a public opinion, a public opinion that was favorable to the prince.

Of course, after returning to Situ Mansion after losing to Zhang Bu unexpectedly, his grandfather Wang Rong inadvertently said to him: "This is the destiny of heaven, you can't change it." ”

After he came back from Chenliu, he went to Hongdu College to look for Gao Ming, but he didn't find it three times. He listened to his sister Wang Tianyun tell him about Gao Ming's conversation with her in the library pavilion, and couldn't help but be more curious about this person. He believed that Gao Ming had never been exposed to these advanced books before. "A civilian who is about the same age as himself can understand such a depth for the first time, could it be that there is really a so-called born knower?"

"Hello Zhao Yu, I am Wang Tianci. "Wang Tianci is a persistent person. learned from his sister Wang Tianyun that Gao Ming's last appearance in front of everyone was taken away by Zhao Yu, and he directly found the front of one of the three heroes of Hongdu.

"That day, Zhao saw Wang Gongzi from afar. Zhao Yu was reading a book in the library pavilion at this time, he had been immersed in the arsenal fire case thirteen years ago for the past few days, and saw Wang Tianci looking for him knowing that it was for Gao Ming's affairs, in fact, he had recently wondered where the dean had taken Gao Ming, "Did Wang Gongzi ask me about Gao Ming?"

"It is said that among the three heroes of Hongdu, Brother Zhao has no last resort, and it seems that what he said is true. ”

"There are a lot of people here, so let's go out and talk. ”

The two of them walked out of the library pavilion and came to the Yinming Pond, Zhao Yu carefully said the things that happened at that time, "Wang Gongzi, I still wonder if our dean sent Gao Ming to your house in the past few days." It is true that he is not in Hongdu Academy. ”

"Oh, then where will he go?" Wang Tianci frowned slightly, falling into deep thought, and Zhao Yu on the side also fell into deep thought. Both of them are extremely intelligent people, and they are both the most well-known resourceful people in the world in the future, and this is the first and last time in their lives that the two of them sit together and think about the same problem.

Suddenly, Wang Tianci thought of something, something that seemed very absurd to him.

Since he came back from Chenliu, he has heard the latest and hottest rumor in Shangluo City: because His Majesty the Emperor is inhumane, and Empress Jia Zhi has always been **, so she secretly sent the maids around her out of the palace to seduce the handsome young man in Shangluo into the palace for him**. And what do you say that today's Yuzhang Wang Huangfu Mi is not the biological son of Emperor Huangfu at all, but the son of Empress Jia Zhi and other men.

"No, no. The more Wang Tianci tried to deny it in his heart, the stronger that intuition became. His intuition told him that Gao Ming was probably in the Great Inner Palace.

He didn't know that the same thought appeared in Zhao Yu's mind!

Just as the two of them were thinking hard, they suddenly heard someone shouting in the square of Hongdu Academy: "Everyone, go to the East Market to see, Shi Qi, the general of the palace, was convicted of abandoning the city by the court captain for stealing the palace items without permission." As soon as noon arrives, ask immediately!"

"What!" the two looked at each other, and both saw horror in each other's eyes.

The position of the Zhonglang general in this hall is extremely important, and the position of the middle man is also extremely rich, and he has always been a monk with an excellent reputation and an innocent family background to take on this position. Not to mention that there has been no such thing since the founding of the Great Jin Dynasty, even if it goes back to the Great Zhou Dynasty, they have never heard of the generals in the palace, and even the tiger on duty in the palace has stolen items in the palace.

It has always been a matter of great pride for every monk to be the rotating tiger in the palace, and no monk would be willing to take such a big risk for that little item. Because it's not just about personal honor and disgrace, it's also about family honor and disgrace.

"There must be something strange about this!" the two of them thought in unison again.

At the same time, on both sides of Suzaku Street in Shangluo, the Shangluo people who came to see the excitement crowded the streets, and the big guys pointed at the prisoner cart that was slowly pulling by, and the pipa bones on the shoulders of Shi Qi, who was dressed in gray and white prison clothes, were passed through by thumb-thick iron chains and locked to the fence of the prisoner cart. I saw that his face was pale, his expression was depressed, and he was covered in blood all over his body, and he had long since lost the radiant four-grade monk demeanor of the past.

"Look, that's the dignified four-grade monk hall in the middle of the Lang General Qi. ”

"Phew, this person looks quite elegant, but I didn't expect to steal from the guards, and lose the face of our monks!

As soon as this person said this, there was immediately a chorus of cheers around him.

"How is it enough to be beheaded?

"Yes, a thousand cuts!"

"Well said! How noble are our monks of the Great Jin, how can there be such a monk who has no sense of integrity! Shi Qi, you have not only lost the face of your master, but also the face of our Great Jin monks, don't you feel ashamed?"

When Shi Qi in the prisoner car heard this scolding, his head, which had been drooping, suddenly raised, and he shouted with an extremely excited expression: "My teacher is a four-grade monk, I have never stolen anything in my life, I was framed by someone! It's Empress Jia, no, it's the demon woman Jia Zhi who framed me." The demon woman secretly hid the young man in the palace, and as soon as I found a trace, I was framed, I am innocent, I am a loyal minister of the Great Jin! I swear by the honor of a monk, and every word of my Shiqi is true, if there is a word of falsehood, I am willing to be thundered by the sky!"

Shi Qi's words were like thunder on the ground, and they immediately caused an exclamation!

Although the rumors about the queen Jia Zhi sending maids out of the palace to lure handsome young men into the palace have spread widely in Shangluo in the past few days, the weight of these words from the mouth of a character like Shi Qi is different from what everyone is talking about on the streets.

"Wow, is that rumor true?"

"Cut, what's the end of this?" someone else said, "I also heard that King Yuzhang was not born today." ”

"Oh, no wonder someone in the imperial court proposed two days ago to respect King Huainan as the emperor's younger brother. From this point of view, it turns out that the big people in the court have long known it in their hearts!"

Since the founding of the Great Jin Dynasty, Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty has said loudly that the monks of the Great Jin Dynasty will never be convicted of their words! Moreover, Emperor Fu Yan of the Jin Dynasty also wrote this sentence into the system of stone letters, thinking that it would be the law of later generations! Therefore, the monks of the Great Jin Dynasty have always been open-mouthed and have no scruples. After Shi Qi's words came out, everyone's eyes looked at Shi Qi differently, no longer the angry contempt just now, but sympathy and admiration.

And in a remote alley on the side of Vermilion Bird Avenue, Shen Xiu, who was dressed in a gray robe and a hood on his head, dressed himself like a civilian, saw this scene, and his heart was complicated. It was all as he expected, and it all met his expectations perfectly.

"General Division, I'm sorry!" Shen Xiu said silently in his heart, "Ask for benevolence, I, Shen Xiu, will make amends to your division general when I go underground in the future!
