Chapter 204: The Trajectory of Fate
Hear familiar and unfamiliar voices.
Liu Yu shuddered violently all over his body and raised his eyes.
I saw a middle-aged man in a scarlet robe sitting straight on the Taishi chair, his face seemed to be covered with a layer of fog, which was unreal.
I was in a trance for a second.
He reacted immediately.
In the entire city of Lanzhou, there is only one person who is qualified to wear a scarlet official robe, and that is the prefect of the fourth grade.
It's just that......
Isn't the prefect dead?
Just then, the voice rang out again.
"Liu Yu, when you see this official, why don't you worship!"
The sonorous and powerful voice, full of majesty, made a chill involuntarily rise in his heart.
This moment.
Instinctively, he got up from the bed, stood upright, and saluted respectfully: "Humble, humble to meet your lordship." ”
He is just a small official of the government, responsible for some chores, and in front of the prefect, he is not qualified to call himself a subordinate official.
Taishi's chair.
The middle-aged man in the scarlet robe slowly stood up, looked down at Liu Yu condescendingly, and asked in a cold voice: "Liu Yu, this official treats you well on weekdays, why do you want to harm this official!" ”
The voice fell.
Liu Yu shuddered, knelt on the ground, and shouted, "My lord...... What a degrade wrong! ”
The man in the scarlet robe didn't listen to his explanation, but said: "This official is a fourth-grade prefect, a fifth-grade Confucian student, forgive you for having ten dares and don't dare to murder this official, say!" Who told you to do this? And what is the purpose! ”
The cold wind whistled outside the house, making a whining sound, adding a bit of eerie atmosphere to the atmosphere in the house.
Liu Yu kowtowed heavily, and said in a trembling voice: "Great, my lord Mingjian, don't say that it is ten dares to borrow a humble position, that is, to borrow a hundred courages from a humble position, and the humble position will not dare to harm the adult......
The reason why adults ended up like this is because of ......"
At this, the voice stopped abruptly.
Follow.
The dream quickly collapsed in a very short period of time.
Jiang Chuyue's Yuan Shen was rejected by a powerful force and could only choose to leave.
Meanwhile.
on the bed.
Liu Yu opened his eyes suddenly, his pupils dilated violently, his forehead was full of cold sweat, he was short of breath, and he was panting vigorously.
Apparently frightened in the dream.
After a short trance.
He jerked his gaze at the Taishi chair not far from the bed, which was empty and showed no signs of moving.
"It's a dream......
Liu Yu retracted his gaze and breathed a sigh of relief.
A moment later.
He suppressed the panic in his heart and pondered it.
Why do you have such bizarre dreams today?
Could it be that there are thoughts in the day and dreams in the night.
During the day, the lord sent by the imperial court to investigate the death of the prefect entered the yamen, so he dreamed of the prefect who had been dead for several days?
That's it.
He didn't think much of it and lay back on the bed.
…………
In the inn.
Jiang Chuyue completely recounted everything that happened in the dream, including Liu Yu's expression and subtle movements.
After Ren Pingsheng listened carefully, his face showed a solemn expression.
From the description of Xiao Green Tea, it is not difficult to judge what this official named Liu Yu knows.
Even, it is very likely to know who killed the prefect of Lanzhou.
After determining that it was a murder, not an accident.
Ren Pingsheng looked at Jiang Chuyue and asked with a solemn face: "You just said that when he was about to say a certain name, the dream suddenly collapsed?" ”
Jiang Chuyue bowed slightly: "It looks like this." ”
Ren Pingsheng asked again: "Why is this happening?" ”
Jiang Chuyue said: "Generally speaking, there are two possibilities, the first is that the owner of that name, who has a strong ability to predict, interfered with Liu Yu's dream......"
"Foresight? But Liu Yu clearly didn't say anything, and it was in a dream. ”
It was the first time Ren Pingsheng had heard this statement, and his face showed surprise, and he couldn't help but interrupt her.
Jiang Chuyue replied: "The foreknowledge here does not mean that the owner of that name knows that Liu Yu is going to betray him in a dream, but that he foresees that the trajectory of his fate will change in the future, and the origin of this change lies in a dream that Liu Yu had this night.
So, in order to return his fate to the original trajectory, he chose to interfere with Liu Yu at this time.
Of course, people just give a rough example, such a thing as predicting fate, people don't know much about it, and they have only heard the master mention a few words, which is probably like this. ”
Foresight of fate.
Interfere ahead of time.
It's a bit of a change of life.
But.
If fate could really be predicted.
Doesn't it show that from the moment everyone is born, what kind of person they become, what kind of things they will do, the roads they have traveled in their lives, the scenery they have seen, and the people they have met, all of them are destined?
As soon as he thought of this, Ren Pingsheng's eyes showed a trace of trance.
But soon, he suppressed the complicated emotions in his heart and asked, "Is there really such a person in the world?" ”
The reason why I didn't ask the deeper doubts in my heart.
It's because he knows it.
Little Green Tea only knows a little about the so-called predicted fate, and even has only heard people mention it, so it is impossible to answer it for itself.
"Of course there is."
Jiang Chuyue blinked her eyes and said seriously: "The supervisor of Qin Tianjian has the ability to predict fate, and it is precisely because of him sitting on the stargazing platform that the transcendent realm monks of the demon and barbarian races dare not easily enter the territory of the Great Zhou, for fear that he will perceive his existence and then be besieged by the emperor......
Ren Pingsheng was slightly stunned, not understanding her logic.
Is there any inevitable connection between the transcendent realm cultivators entering the territory of the Great Zhou and the fear of being discovered by the Qin Heavenly Prison Supervisor?
It seemed to sense his doubts.
Jiang Chuyue further explained: "According to Master, in the eyes of these people, the fate of transcendent monks is completely different from the fate of ordinary monks, transcendent monks are like stars in the sky, which can be detected by careful observation, while ordinary people are like a speck of dust in the starry sky, no matter what changes occur, they will not be noticed.
As for why the transcendent monks of the alien race can only be discovered by the prison when they enter the territory of the Great Zhou, it is because even with the blessing of the stargazing platform, the range that the supervisor can perceive is only within the territory of the Great Zhou.
As for leaving the stargazing platform, what the supervisor can perceive is probably only a radius of two or three hundred miles from the Jingshi, and because of this, the supervisor has to sit on the stargazing platform for twelve hours a day, and he can't slack off in the slightest. ”
No wonder something happened to Wusheng Mountain at the beginning.
Emperor Zhaowu, Xu Ruxian, the Imperial History of the Left Capital, Wang Zheng, the Master of Ceremonies, the Sacrificial Wine of the Holy Courtyard, and Daozun and other extraordinary powerhouses were all present.
Only the Qin Tian Prison was absent.
It turned out to be a stargazing platform.
Ren Pingsheng's face showed a sudden expression.
Then he realized a critical problem.
"So, the mastermind behind the murder of the prefect of Lanzhou may be an extraordinary monk of the same level as the Qintian Prison Supervisor?
If this is the case, he is making waves here, and Qin Tian Prison will not be able to detect it? ”
Ren Pingsheng thought for a moment and felt that there was no point in dwelling on this issue.
After all, if the mastermind behind the scenes was really an extraordinary monk, it was very likely that he would not let himself find out anything.
After a few days, if he really found nothing, he would tell Emperor Zhaowu about this conjecture and let him find a way to go by himself.
Think so.
Ren Pingsheng opened his mouth and asked: "Then the second possibility?" ”
Jiang Chuyue said: "The second possibility is that the name has a very heavy weight in his heart, so when he plans to say that name, his emotions will change drastically, such as guilt, anxiety, and so on......
It was this change in mood that prompted him to wake up from his dream. ”
Seeing his dead boss appear in front of him, he asks himself why he killed him...... None of this woke up.
Just to say a name, I woke up from a dream.
The owner of this name weighed so much in his heart.
"It seems that I have to find someone to check this Liu Yu and see who he has contact with on weekdays, and who is extremely important in his heart."
Ren Pingsheng thought so, so he listened to Jiang Chuyue and said: "People think that since Liu Yu has admitted that he knows who killed the prefect of Lanzhou, it is better to arrest him and let Li Yong toss it well, and it won't be long before this case can be solved......"
Stop.
Her suggestion is indeed somewhat feasible.
It's just that......
In case what Liu Yu is going to say next is not someone's name.
Or, what he knows is just the tip of the iceberg, and he doesn't know who is really behind it.
Then handing him over to Li Yong wouldn't it startle the snake.
Ultimately.
He is only a small official, and he has limited access to information, and even if he participates in the plan to murder the prefect, it is estimated that he only occupies a small link.
Doing so is too risky and not very rewarding.
If after a few days, nothing can be found, but you can consider adopting this suggestion, arresting Liu Yu and sending it to Li Yong.
Ren Pingsheng thought so, bowed slightly, and said: "It's a way, this son will consider it." ”
Seeing that his proposal was approved by the prince.
Jiang Chuyue's eyebrows showed a touch of pride, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a faint smile.
Ren Pingsheng sat on the edge of the bed, pondered for a while, and decided to send someone to keep an eye on Liu Yu first, trying not to startle the snake.
After making a decision, he looked at Jiang Chuyue and said, "You did a good job tonight, go back and rest." ”
Jiang Chuyue stood in place, with no intention of leaving.
The good-looking eyes blinked slightly, raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked softly: "Since the prince thinks that people are doing a good job, isn't there any reward?" ”
Ren Pingsheng said: "Not letting you stay and take care of the house is a reward." ”
Jiang Chuyue pouted and said, "People have done a lot of work tonight, and their waists are sore when they stand on the roof......
As he spoke, he reached out and rubbed his slender side waist.
Ren Pingsheng remained silent.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Jiang Chuyue snorted lightly and said angrily: "If the prince doesn't reward others, they will tell the senior sister that tonight the prince dragged people to stand on the roof for most of the day, and their waists were sore, and they were not allowed to rest......"
What do you say......
It doesn't seem to be a problem.
The corners of Ren Pingsheng's eyes twitched, he made a compromise and asked, "What do you want?" ”
Seeing that he agreed, Jiang Chuyue's eyelashes trembled slightly, and her delicate face showed a look of hesitation, looking like she wanted to say something.
Ren Pingsheng waved his hand and said: "If you have something to say, you won't wait for the expiration." ”
Hearing this, Jiang Chuyue no longer hesitated, took a deep breath, and said softly: "People want the prince to be kind to others......
Ren Pingsheng didn't expect her to say this, he was slightly stunned, and was about to open his mouth to respond, when he heard her continue: "People shouldn't pretend to be weak and deceive the prince when they see the prince for the first time, let alone fall asleep when the prince is resting, and deliberately seduce the son......
People already know that they are wrong, and the son of the world forgives them, okay? ”
Speaking of this, her voice trembled a little, a pair of delicate little hands clenched tightly, her eyelashes fluttered, and her good-looking eyes seemed to be watery, looking pitiful.
Even at this moment.
Ren Pingsheng still can't tell whether this is her disguise or her true feelings.
After all, her acting skills are too superb, she can change her emotions at any time, so that people can't see any flaws, and in her previous life, she was at the absolute level of a movie queen.
But.
Think about it.
Even if this confession is just her disguise, for herself, what is the difference between it and the so-called true feelings?
Not being able to forgive herself doesn't seem to hurt her.
It doesn't seem to do much good to get your own forgiveness.
To put it bluntly, it is nothing more than not wanting to be treated differently.
And.
Think about it.
Chang'an's little junior sister doesn't seem to have anything else except for some tea on weekdays.
Even, her tea is just out of play.
At her age, it's human nature to be playful......
That's it.
Ren Pingsheng didn't think much about it anymore, reached out and pinched her little face, and said, "You and I are even." ”
"So...... Has the prince forgiven others? ”
Jiang Chuyue raised her head slightly, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and Chu Chu looked at Ren Pingsheng pitifully.
"Hmm."
Ren Pingsheng bowed slightly, in response.
Jiang Chuyue's good-looking peach blossom eyes shone slightly, and her eyebrows showed excitement, and she quickly returned to normal.
The little hands were clasped together, and he shook his body gently, and said in a trembling voice: "Actually...... The prince can beat people a few more times, and they don't mind. ”
“……”
Ren Pingsheng was not used to her, and raised his hand.
Seeing this, Jiang Chuyue's peach blossom eyes revealed a strange brilliance, and she quickly covered it up.
His eyes were tightly closed, and his body trembled slightly, as if he was nervous and afraid.
I thought that the slap of the son of the world would fall soon.
I waited for a long time, but I didn't feel any pain.
Her eyelashes trembled slightly, she slowly opened her eyes, and looked at Ren Pingsheng suspiciously.
That's when it happened.
Ren Pingsheng pinched her face again and said, "Go back early to rest, I have to go to the beach tomorrow to watch the sea." ”
After saying that, he turned around and went back to the bed, intending to sleep.
Turning his head to look, he saw Jiang Chuyue standing in place, caressing the cheek that had been pinched by him just now, not knowing what he was thinking.
"What? Do you want this son to send you back? ”
Ren Pingsheng raised his eyebrows and said casually.
"Is that okay?"
Jiang Chuyue blinked and asked softly.
"What do you say?"
"Okay......"
Little Green Tea pursed her lips aggrievedly, turned around and left the room.
Ren Pingsheng shook his head helplessly, planning to sleep, but as soon as he lay down, he felt that something was wrong.
Reach out and touch it.
Only then did I find out that the clothes that Xiao Green Tea had changed had forgotten here.
