162.Chapter 162

"Captain Zhao, is there anything wrong with me?" Li Zhen smiled and came out of the tunnel next to the wall.

Zhao Qiuniang was startled, she saw the internal guards coming out of the tunnel one by one, and she realized that they had dug the tunnel to the temple.

"Are you coming back from the monastery?" she asked, surprised

"Almost, Captain want to give it a try?"

"No, no! I'm not going to try. ”

Zhao Qiuniang hurriedly shook her head, her eyes showed a look of worry, and said to Li Zhen: "I have important news to report to the commander." ”

Li Zhen nodded and pointed to the inner room from a distance, "Let's go to the inner hall to talk." ”

The two walked into the inner hall one after the other, and Zhao Qiuniang closed the door and whispered: "Cui Shaoying is unreliable." ”

Li Zhen didn't show any surprised expression, in his eyes, Cui Shaoying has never been reliable, he has a close relationship with Wu Chongxun, the son of Wu Sansi, if Cui Shaoying is pulled over by Wu Sansi, he will not be surprised at all.

However, seeing Zhao Qiuniang's anxious appearance, Li Zhen also knew that this time was probably unusual, so he asked, "What happened?"

Just now, Wan Guojun entered Cui Shaoying's official room. ”

"And then?" Li Zhen asked again, it was normal for Wan Guojun to enter Cui Shaoying's official room, and it didn't mean anything.

"Our people saw outside the window that Wan Guojun gave Cui Shaoying an invitation to Princess Taiping. ”

Zhao Qiuniang glanced at Li Zhen cautiously, and seeing that there was still no expression on his face, she continued: "I asked the person who was engaged carefully, and it seems that Cui Shaoying has some handle that Wan Guojun has pinched. ”

Li Zhen finally snorted coldly in his nose, Cui Shaoying was originally a person who wanted to climb up, and finally had the opportunity to climb Princess Taiping, how could he lose this opportunity?

From the very beginning, Li Zhen saw that Cui Shaoying was unreliable, so he gave him an official room in the Foreign Affairs Department, so that he could have the opportunity to be favored by Princess Taiping or Xue Huaiyi.

Li Zhen saw Zhao Qiuniang's face full of anxiety, so he smiled lightly: "Don't worry, I wish he was bought by Princess Taiping." ”

Zhao Qiuniang was stunned, she vaguely understood, could it be that the commander had known that there would be this result?

Li Zhen whispered a few words to her again, Zhao Qiuniang's face was abrupt, and she couldn't help but smile happily: "It turns out that you expected it a long time ago, and you made me worry for a long time in vain, okay, I'll go and prepare now." ”

"Sister Qiu Niang!"

As soon as Zhao Qiuniang walked to the door, Li Zhen stopped her again, Zhao Qiuniang turned around and smiled: "Is there anything else?"

"Have you heard of Master Chibao?"

Zhao Qiuniang glanced at Li Zhen strangely, and her expression was as if Li Zhen had only come from Dunhuang today, "If you haven't heard of it, you can only say that you are lonely and unheard." ”

Li Zhen gave a long salute, "I really haven't heard of it, please make it clear to Qiu Niang!"

"He is a monk from Tianzhu, with the god of fire haunting, everyone in Luoyang knows, even the empress Shengshang called him into the palace to perform fire skills, nicknamed Tianzhu God of Fire, but he never showed his true face, always wore a fake leather mask, no one knows what he looks like, we suspect that his fire and face are related. ”

"Looks like I'm so lonely. ”

Zhao Qiuniang smiled, turned around and left quickly

Zhao Qiuniang returned to the official office of Quanshanfang, and as soon as she returned to her official mansion, she heard Cui Shaoying's voice outside the door, "Captain Zhao, can I come in?"

"Please come in!"

Cui Shaoying walked into the room with a smile, he was stunned for a moment, there was a village woman wearing a coarse cloth short coat standing in front of him, and after a closer look, he recognized that this village woman turned out to be Zhao Qiuniang.

"It turned out to be Captain Zhao, I said! Who went to the wrong door?"

Cui Shaoying's heart suddenly moved, Zhao Qiuniang's dress must have a purpose, in the past two days, he thought that Li Zhen was recuperating at home, it seems that he has been moving outside, if he can find out Li Zhen's plan, wouldn't it be helpful to meet Princess Taiping tonight.

Thinking of this, he stepped forward with a smile and said, "Is there anything that Captain Zhao needs my help with?"

"It's nothing, thank you Cui Changshi for your kindness. ”

Zhao Qiuniang was busy cleaning up her desk without raising her head, at this time, Cui Shaoying suddenly appeared next to the table leg with a package, the package was half scattered, revealing a thick stack of monk degrees, there were dozens of them, he was secretly stunned in his heart, and deliberately walked further and smiled: "I want to talk to Captain Zhao about recruiting new people." ”

He said casually, but his eyes glanced at the foot of the Du, he saw clearly this time, it was indeed the monk Dumu, there were about thirty of them, at this time, Zhao Qiuniang suddenly appeared his gaze, picked up the package, and looked at him vigilantly.

"You should talk to the commander about recruiting new people, it has nothing to do with me. ”

"Didn't I just find Commander Lee?"

Cui Shaoying pretended to ask casually: "I don't know where he went, does Captain Zhao know?"

"He's in White"

Zhao Qiuniang stopped her mouth suddenly, and hurriedly said: "I don't know where he is, anyway, he will be back in two days, Cui Changshi will talk to him when he arrives!"

From the unintentional monk Du Mu to Zhao Qiuniang's almost revealing mouth, Cui Shaoying has already understood that Li Zhen must be fighting the idea of the White Horse Temple, and he is likely to arrange for someone to enter the White Horse Temple as a warrior monk, so there will be a monk Du Mu.

It must be like this, Cui Shaoying's heart is excited, he can give Princess Taiping a big gift for the first time, and he will be worthy of tonight's trip.

The more Cui Shaoying thought about it, the more proud she became, so she said haha: "Okay! I'll wait for two more days and wait for Commander Li to come back." ”

He turned around and went out, Zhao Qiuniang glanced at his back and walked away, her eyes full of disdain and annoyance

In Princess Taiping's mansion, Princess Taiping had just pampered Zhang Changzong, and Zhang Changzong's appearance on the bed made her extremely satisfied.

The two lingered for an afternoon, Princess Taiping was not tired, but like the field after the spring rain, her face was as delicate and red as a peach blossom, her skin was as delicate and white as mutton fat, and her eyes were like resentment, which made Cui Shaoying, who came to the banquet, itchy and unbearable, and wanted to be wrong.

The person who accompanied the wine on the side was also Gao Jian, Princess Taiping's confidant, but Gao Jian's face was cold, and his heart flashed with resentment that could not be concealed.

Although Gao Jian knew that Princess Taiping was an extremely amorous person, and there were countless men who had affairs with her, she had never indulged in the arms of Zhang Changzong's bewitching man like she did today, which made him extremely jealous.

Cui Shaoying picked up the wine glass and watched Princess Taiping tease Cui Shaoying with cold eyes, only to see Cui Shaoying being ugly, and seemed to want to kiss Fang Ze, making him sneer secretly.

Taiping Jiao smiled and said: "Cui Changshi's milk name turned out to be Chunlang, this is the first time the slave family has heard of it!"

Cui Shaoying secretly glanced at the large snow-white chest exposed to Princess Taiping, most of it was round, and a little cardamom was faintly visible, so he couldn't wait to immediately kneel under Princess Taiping's pomegranate skirt and bow down to her, so that he completely forgot that there was a high sword sitting next to him.

"The princess is the first person to know the name of the lower official, except for the princess, no one will sue the lower official. ”

Princess Taiping has read countless people, and she has already seen that Cui Shaoying is not willing to give up on her, which makes her quite proud, so she wants to tease him again.

She bit her lip lightly, and said coquettishly: "Chunlang actually trusts the slave family so much, I wonder if Chunlang likes the long skirt that the slave family wears today?"

Gao Jian couldn't bear it anymore, snorted heavily, got up and rushed away angrily, Princess Taiping didn't pay attention to him, just teased Cui Shaoying with flattering eyes.

Cui Shaoying was so excited that he trembled, he couldn't care about his self-esteem anymore, and knelt in front of Princess Taiping with a 'plop', he grabbed Princess Taiping's skirt and swore an oath: "Shaoying swears here, I am willing to be the slave of Her Royal Highness the Princess, and I am willing to be driven by Her Royal Highness, and I only ask the princess to give Shaoying a little rain and dew grace." ”

Princess Taiping laughed insolently, he wanted Yulu, but he didn't give it to him, held his nose, held his soul, she stretched out her delicate and tender fingers and poked lightly on his forehead, "If you want my favor, then do things for me first, and things will be done." Nature has your rain and dew. ”

"Yes, yes, I have important information to report to the princess. ”

The next day, before dawn, the sky was blue, and the Luoyang believers of Hanoi Lao Nun poured in from all directions to Lintoe Temple.

Despite Hanoi's reputation in Luoyang, there are still many obsessive believers like Aunt Meng, who believe that Hanoi can bring them longevity and well-being.

The nuns of the temple are particularly busy, bringing some of the wealthy and wealthy believers to the VIP room to rest, while the rest of the nuns arrange seats outside the temple gate, register donations, and so on.

At this moment, a scream suddenly broke out outside the gate of Lintoe Temple, and I saw an ox cart break, and seven or eight corpses slipped out of the ox cart, both men and women, all defenseless.

The hundreds of worshippers gathered at the gate were so frightened that they fled in all directions, stumbling and knocking over many tables and utensils.

Several nuns were also frightened and rushed back to the monastery to report, and after a while, Zhiwen, the abbot of Linzhi Monastery, hurriedly arrived, and she took a dozen female nuns to cover the corpses with mats.

At this time, thousands of believers gathered around, all whispering, not understanding what was happening, there were so many corpses in the ox cart, could it be that someone was seeking money and killing people?

At this time, Hanoi Lao Nun also hurried to the large group of female disciples, the believers clasped their palms together to give salutes, Hanoi Lao Nun's face was extremely ugly, when they held the puja, someone actually abandoned the corpse at the gate of the temple, this is simply to destroy her today's puja.

She whispered to Zhiwen, "Transfer them away immediately, don't make a big deal about it, don't let it affect the puja." ”

"Disciple understood!"

Abbot Zhiwen hurriedly commanded a group of nuns to roll up the corpse with a mat and carry it away, at this time, Hanoi Lao Ni Lang said to thousands of believers: "This is someone sabotaging today's puja, the poor nuns have expected it, I believe we have made sufficient preparations, everyone please rest assured, we have the blessing of the Buddha, the puja will definitely be held smoothly, and the traitors will never be allowed to succeed!"

Hanoi's words were changed to applause, and the believers returned to their seats again, while the female disciples lifted up the overturned candlesticks, incense burners, and other utensils, and order was quickly restored in front of the gate of the temple.

On a wall about 100 steps away in the distance, two internal guard soldiers were observing the movement in front of the temple gate, and when they saw that the corpse had been removed, they hurriedly jumped off the wall and ran to the inner hall to report to Li Zhenyu: "Commander Qiyu, the corpse has been removed by them, causing a sensation as scheduled!"

Li Zhen had been living in this mansion for two days, and he knew that Wan Guojun would send someone to spy on him, although he was dismissive of Wan Guojun, but out of caution, he still didn't want Wan Guojun to find out his traces.

Li Zhen smiled and said, "Continue to observe and wait for the opportunity!"

As the day began to dawn, more and more people came to the temple, not only believers, but also a large number of people who came to watch the Vulcan performance.

The god of fire is the Red Treasure Heavenly Master, he is a monk from Tianzhu, the original name is not known, he gave himself the name of Chibao in the Central Plains, famous for his fire skills in Chang'an and Luoyang, and is called the god of fire by the people.

At this time, this thin, dark-skinned Tianzhu master stood on a high platform specially built for him, his head was unusually disheveled, like a lion's head, his face was wearing a hideous human skin mask, there was nothing in his hands, and his lower body was wrapped only with a white cloth wrapped around his body.

I saw a ball of fire erupt from his mouth and throw it out of his hand, and from time to time a fire dragon appeared around him, causing thousands of onlookers to exclaim.

At this moment, a group of Dali Temple sergeants rushed from a distance, led by Dali Temple Chengsun Li, they rushed to the gate of the temple, shouting loudly all the way: "Get out of the way!"

The believers who were crowded at the gate of the temple dodged away one after another, and they all looked at the group of sergeants in surprise, and they talked about it, and they didn't know what was going on, and some people who reacted quickly vaguely guessed that it might have something to do with the corpse in the morning.

The abbot Zhiwen hurriedly walked out of the gate when she heard the news, and she clasped her palms together and said, "May I ask the official to come here, what are you doing?"

Sun Li said sharply: "Dali Temple received a report, and the body of Lintoe Temple is unknown, and we are here to investigate the case!"

Zhiwen Nun was startled, and secretly complained in her heart, who did so much to report the case, but the government was attracted to the government, she hurriedly said: "There is this matter, but there is a grand meeting today, can you wait for tomorrow?"

"No! Human lives are at stake, how can you delay at will, where is the body? Take me to see it!"

Abbot Zhiwen had no choice but to find two disciples to take the sergeant of Dali Temple to check the corpse outside the back wall of the temple, and Sun Li led the sergeant to follow quickly.

But after a while, one of the female disciples came to report in a panic: "Abbot, they said that there should be more than seven or eight corpses, and there are more than a dozen corpses missing, and they want to search the monastery." ”

Abbot Zhiwen was taken aback, and hurriedly said to the two middle-aged female nuns: "You stop them, I'll report to the master!"

She turned around and walked towards your guest room, in the guest room, Hanoi Lao Ni was entertaining a group of huge rich people, everyone was talking and laughing, the atmosphere was quite lively, at this time, Zhiwen walked quickly to Hanoi Lao Ni and whispered a few words to her.

Hanoi Lao Ni frowned, a trace of annoyance flashed in her eyes, and she disappeared quickly, she smiled and said to everyone: "Donors sit down for a while, and the poor nuns will come when they go." ”

Everyone hurriedly got up and clasped their palms to send each other, and Hanoi Lao Ni walked out of your guest room, and immediately gritted her teeth and said, "Which damn bastard went to report to the official?"

"The disciples don't know, what should we do now? They insisted on searching the monastery. ”

"Let's see!"

After walking a few steps, Hanoi Lao Ni suddenly remembered something, and turned back to Zhiwen and whispered to Zhiwen: "Just in case, let the warrior monk go to my Zen monastery for a while to avoid it." ”
