Early the next morning, when Bai Qiurui saw Sui Hong again, she unexpectedly received another letter from Shen Yuan.

"Sister Sui, what is this?"

Looking at the letter handed by Sui Hong, Bai Qiurui was a little puzzled, but she still reached out and took it.

Sui Hong spread her hands, looking confused: "I'm just a messenger, Sister Qiu Rui has to open it herself to find out." ”

Hearing this, Bai Qiurui stretched out her hand and opened the envelope, which was still filled with Shen Yuan's sharp and handsome words.

With a glance, Bai Qiurui's gaze was stunned in the first line.

This letter was written by Shen Yuan, it is true, but the content of this letter is indeed something that Bai Qiurui never expected.

The letter briefly stated that the collusion between Wei Yuanlong, the Marquis of Zhenbei, and Han Chengyu, the king of Ning, to frame the Qinglong Army was true, and it was confirmed after preliminary investigation that the two of them joined forces to frame the commander of the Qinglong Army, so that the Qinglong Army was completely wiped out.

Then what shocked Bai Qiurui even more was that Shen Yuan mentioned two letters found in the abbot's meditation room of Nanyue Temple.

The letter was indeed written by the Marquis of Zhenbei and King Ning, but Shen Yuan suspected that someone had deliberately placed it in the drawer of the meditation room for them to find.

Under such speculation, Bai Qiurui suspected that it was Meng Beihe almost immediately.

Not to mention anything else, just that day in the Nanyue Temple, Shen Yuan heard the voice of the distinguished guest received by the abbot, which was Meng Beihe, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites.

Bai Qiurui believed in Shen Yuan's ear power without reservation, so she vaguely guessed whether those two letters would be put in a drawer by Meng Beihe.

However, as soon as she remembered this thought, she found that this conjecture did not make sense at all.

Assuming that the person behind Nanyue Temple is Meng Beihe, then what is his motive, and how can he get the private letters of the Marquis of Zhenbei and the King of Ning.

And most importantly, why he did it and what he did it for.

Bai Qiurui tried to recall the plot of the original book, but helplessly, there was too little description in the original book for this case, and there was no information available.

"What are you thinking? Do you have something you want me to bring to Brother Shen? If not, I'll be leaving. ”

Sui Hong looked at Bai Qiurui, who was wandering in the world, and smiled softly, stretched out her hand and shook it in front of the little girl's eyes.

Hearing Sui Hong's voice, Bai Qiurui came back to her senses, and she looked at the handwriting on the letter in her hand, and suddenly felt a little uneasy in her heart.

Almost instantly, Bai Qiurui spoke: "Sister Sui, I'll go out with you." ”

"What?"

A hint of surprise flashed on Sui Hong's face, and then he spoke: "You want to go with me to see Brother Shen?" ”

Bai Qiurui frowned unconsciously, she grabbed the letter in her hand and nodded seriously.

Unexpectedly, Sui Hong said something unexpected in the next second: "You better stay in the mansion obediently, Brother Shen, he is not in the Criminal Department today." ”

Hearing this, Bai Qiurui was stunned: "Shen Yuan, he is not in the Criminal Department?" ”

Sui Hong nodded: "When I went back yesterday, I heard my brother say that he was going to go to Ziyang Temple on the outskirts of Beijing with Brother Shen tomorrow." ”

At first glance, Bai Qiurui felt that the three words 'Ziyang View' were quite familiar.

She squinted her eyes and thought about it carefully, and finally found that the Ziyang Temple turned out to be a Taoist temple used for royal worship in the original novel.

After a little calculation of the time, Bai Qiurui found that in the plot in the original book, it was time for the emperor to go out of the palace to worship the sky.

Sure enough, as soon as she remembered the relationship before and after in her heart, Sui Hong in front of her spoke.

"You don't know if you're bored in the house all day long, tomorrow is the day when the emperor goes out of the palace once a year to pray for blessings, and the place to pray for blessings is Ziyang Temple."

Sui Hong's words coincided with Bai Qiurui's memory, and the only thing she didn't expect was that her realistic plot seemed to be much faster than in the original book.

She vaguely remembered that the emperor went out of the palace to worship the heavens, and he was supposed to spend his birthday after his father Bai Hong.

It's just, what is Shen Yuan doing at Ziyang Temple now?

"Sister Sui, are you sure Shen Yuan and they went to Ziyang Temple?" Bai Qiurui asked with some uncertainty.

Sui Hong was silent for a moment, then thought about it carefully, and finally nodded: "Well, they are indeed going to Ziyang Temple." ”

Bai Qiurui was puzzled: "What are they going to Ziyang Temple to do at this time?" ”

"See people."

"Who?"

"It seems to be...... Call, let's be a book of rites. ”

As soon as Sui Hong's words came out, Bai Qiurui had already suddenly stood up from the stool.

"What? You said that Shen Yuan went to see Meng Beihe, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites?! ”

Sui Hong was taken aback by Bai Qiurui's reaction, she then stood up and said, "Yes, Brother Shen, he and the Ministry of Rites are both one of the six Shangshu, is there anything wrong with this meeting?" ”

Sui Hong didn't know what was going on behind Meng Beihe, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and didn't think that Shen Yuan had anything wrong with him at the moment, but tilted his head and thought about it for a while, and finally said in a rather strange way.

"I think it's okay to see my colleagues, but I don't know why he went to Ziyangguan so far away, isn't it the same for the teahouse tavern in the capital?"

Ziyangguan is located in the suburbs of Beijing, and it takes an hour to take a carriage to go back and forth, and it is indeed more convenient to compare the teahouses in Beijing.

At this time, Bai Qiurui naturally knew that Shen Yuan did not go to see Meng Beihe simply to meet with his colleagues.

She intuitively felt that Shen Yuan went to see Meng Beihe today, most likely for the matter of Nanyue Temple.

Thinking of this, Bai Qiurui immediately said, "Sister Sui, let's also go to Ziyang Temple." ”

Before Sui Hong could stop it, Bai Qiurui found Lan'er and asked the little girl to disguise herself and pretend to be a little girl with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes.

Because of Bai Qiurui's excellent face, she walked out of the mansion all the way out of the house, which can be described as fearful and cautious.

Fortunately, there was no danger along the way, and after slipping out of the back door, Sui Hong was already waiting for her outside.

When she got into the carriage, Sui Hong sat aside and watched Bai Qiurui, staring at the air in a daze, and there were words in her mouth.

"Why did Shen Yuan go to see Meng Beihe, did he deliberately put those two letters, and what secrets did he and the abbot of Nanyue Temple have......"

Along the way, Bai Qiurui was thinking about these questions, and she had a hunch that this trip to Ziyang Temple would solve all these doubts.

"Wake up...... Good sister, I see that you have been talking all the way, what happened? ”

Sui Hong couldn't bear to interrupt Bai Qiurui's train of thought, and asked curiously.

Along the way, she listened to the people around her keep mentioning Meng Beihe, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and she didn't understand what was so special about a book of the Ministry of Rites in charge of the system of etiquette.

Bai Qiurui's gaze turned from the fugue to Sui Hong, and her thoughts kept on saying, "Sister should know about the case of Ning Wangfu, right?" ”

"Yes."

At this moment, there was no outsider in the carriage, so Sui Hong said straightforwardly: "I heard that the emperor secretly decreed that the Ning Wangfu has been placed under house arrest, and no one is allowed to enter or leave." ”

Bai Qiurui's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness: "Really? That's really self-inflicted, and the retribution is not happy. ”

Sui Hong's face was surprised, but Bai Qiurui said straightforwardly: "This time I went to Ziyang Temple, it is the time to unravel the truth of all this. ”

The white fingertips opened the curtain of the carriage, and the window was a quiet and lonely country road.

When I went out in the morning, it was still sunny and sunny, and I didn't want to work for such a while, and the weather was actually dark.

The sun vanished, replaced by layers of clouds.

Sui Hong looked at Bai Qiurui's open curtain, and said casually: "This time the sky has actually changed." ”

Her clear eyes darkened, and Bai Qiurui said in a deep voice: "Yes, it's going to change." ”

A gust of wind blew from nowhere, carrying a strong killing intent, and rushed towards him.

Bai Qiurui frowned, withdrew her hand and lowered the curtain.

In the original book, this Ziyang Temple, which was specially used for the royal sacrifice to the heavens, was solemn and atmospheric, and the overall construction was larger than the ordinary Taoist temple.

The current Taoist temple is the Taoist master Yuanyangzi, who is quite respected by the emperor.

Half an hour later, Bai Qiurui and Sui Hong got out of the carriage not far from Ziyang Temple.

Perhaps for the emperor to come to the Ziyang Temple to worship the sky tomorrow, there are already two teams of guards guarding the Taoist Temple at this moment, and no idlers are allowed to enter or leave.

"There are guards here, we can't get in."

Sui Hong looked at the guards who were in a circle not far away, and sighed helplessly.

"Brother Shen and Meng Shangshu are both ministers of the DPRK and China, but we are not."

Bai Qiurui was looking at the guards thinking about countermeasures, and she was reminded by a cold sentence.

That's right!

Meng Beihe is the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, so isn't this matter of Ziyang Guan Sacrifice Heaven just for him to handle? !

At this moment, there was a commotion from a distance.

Bai Qiurui and Sui Hong hurriedly hid, but fortunately, the green trees on both sides of this temple were thick, and it was very convenient to hide.

I saw a group of guards coming up from another path, and it didn't look like guards, it looked like a mixture of a ceremonial and a guard.

There were about forty people in one team, divided into four teams.

Uniformly dressed in a dark red robe with a black brocade belt interspersed in the middle, he was carrying some ceremonial utensils and gradually approaching.

"That should be a ritual vessel specially prepared for the emperor to worship the heavens tomorrow."

Bai Qiurui looked at the approaching team and whispered.

Sui Hong glanced at the nod of approval, and then said, "Then how should we get in?" ”

The scene at this time was quite similar to the mountain behind Nanyue Temple, and Bai Qiurui couldn't help but think of the last time she and Shen Yuan mixed into the secret passage of the mountain behind the temple.

It's just that last time it was a coffin, and it was very easy to hide people. At this time, these guards were holding some ritual weapons, and the largest one was a copper furnace carried by four people.

Hiding in objects and blending in definitely won't work, seeing that these people have already come closer, Bai Qiurui can only hide for the time being.

Wait until the group of people walk past and stop in front of the Taoist temple.

Bai Qiurui looked quietly, and saw that a person at the front of the team came out of the line and talked to the guards for a few words, and then was allowed to enter the temple with a group of people.

Seeing this, Sui Hong was quite difficult: "The guards are quite strict. ”

"If they come in, they will definitely come out, and we will wait for them to come out, and then we will pretend to be them and blend in."

Bai Qiurui thought about it for a long time, and there was only one way.

She moved her gaze to Sui Hong: "Sister Sui......"

The latter understood and patted his chest: "Don't worry, leave it to me." ”

Fortunately, Sui Hong is very skilled, and it shouldn't be a problem to stun two people.

In this way, the two waited in place for a while, but no one came out for a long time.

This made Bai Qiurui a little hesitant in her heart, could it be that she miscalculated, those people who were originally Taoist temples.

Just as Bai Qiurui was pondering whether to think of another idea, some movement suddenly came from the Taoist temple.

I saw the door open, and half of the people in the queue of the previous gift-giver walked out of it.

Bai Qiurui's eyes lit up, and she immediately focused her attention and stared at the movement of the team.

Sui Hong also saw the comer, she carefully hid her figure, and was ready to go.

The eyes of the two met for a moment, and then they held their breath and silently paid attention to the twenty people who came out.

The position of the two of them was at the fork of the Taoist path, and the group of people came out much looser than before, not as serious as the gift giver.

Bai Qiurui's gaze quickly fell on the two people at the end of the group, and she actually noticed that something was wrong.

The two at the end were too close, and one of them seemed to be completely leaning on the other, as if the other was walking forward.

After taking a closer look, when she saw the face of one of them, Bai Qiurui was surprised.

Isn't it Gu Yi who leans on others and needs someone to hold on to walk?!

And where is he leaning on others, it is clear that he is already unconscious and fainted on people.

Sui Hong also saw Gu Yi, her eyes lit up, and she subconsciously wanted to get up: "It's big brother!" ”

Fortunately, Bai Qiurui's eyes were quick, and she grabbed Sui Hong without letting this group of people notice.

"Sister, don't worry, this is an opportunity."

Sui Hong came back to her senses and nodded seriously, and the eyes of the two were fixed on a group of people swaggering by.

Carefully moving their bodies, Bai Qiurui and Sui Hong came to the small crossing at the turn of the Taoist temple together.

Just when the last person was left alone because he wanted to help Gu Yi, Sui Hong quickly made a move and came to the man's side like lightning.

The other party was a young man, and he wanted to make a gesture the moment he saw Sui Hong, but he was a step slower.

Sui Hong slammed the knife up and knocked the man unconscious to the ground.

At the same time, Bai Qiurui quickly arrived, and the two of them dragged the unconscious Gu Yi and the knocked out man into the bushes one by one.

"Gu Gongzi, Gu Gongzi."

Bai Qiurui patted Gu Yi on the shoulder and called him twice, but the latter showed no signs of waking up.

Probing his snort, Gu Yi breathed steadily, and it seemed that he was just asleep and there was no big problem.

Sitting on the trunk of the tree carefully, Bai Qiurui could see that Gu Yi was casually dressed and brought out.

Afterwards, the two took off the coats on Gu Yi and the fainted man and changed them on themselves.

Gu Yi was okay, he took off his coat and there were his own clothes inside.

The other man was not so lucky, in order to prevent him from waking up and running around, Sui Hong tore open his inner lining and tied the man up with three strokes and five divisions.

When Bai Qiurui and Sui Hong changed their clothes, Gu Yi, who was leaning against the tree, snorted softly.

"Hiss......"

There was a gasp, and Gu Yi opened his eyes in a daze.

At the same time as he saw the two girls in front of him, he immediately wanted to speak.

However, Sui Hong took the first step to cover Gu Yi's mouth and motioned for him to be silenced.

Because the team that had left before found that someone was missing, and at this time the person who had gone away because of the turn had returned.

"Boss, that kid is used to being lazy and slippery, maybe he went to pee."
