Su Shi couldn't help but sigh: "I believe that even if you don't know how to interpret the hexagram, with your strength and intelligence, you can still follow the law and judge the good and the bad." ”

Bae Hyun did not deny this.

When a person's power reaches a certain level, what he can do is far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

"Did Zhou Xuan look for you again in the future?" Su Shi asked again.

"Nope. Since then, Zhou Xuan has never been to Tsz Yun Temple, and I left there a year later under the pretext of traveling all over the world. It wasn't until the fifth year of Qianxing that I came to Kyoto again. ”

"The reason why you returned to Kyoto must be to carry out your plan."

Pei Hyun said: "Although I am no longer a Taoist priest, the hexagrams I have solved and the words I have said must naturally be made effective." ”

Su Shi smiled bitterly: "You are a conscientious businessman, eleven years have passed, and you have not forgotten the after-sales service." ”

It was rare for Pei Hyun to look at Su Shi with a blank look, but Su Shi teased: "I will also write a book, if you don't understand it, you can also find the answers you can't think of in it." ”

Bae Hyun suddenly smiled: "Although I already knew that today was the end of my life, I never felt regrets. However, when I heard that Childe had the idea of writing a book, I felt a little regretful, and I regretted that I couldn't read Childe's masterpiece. ”

Su Shi couldn't help laughing and said: "I don't dare to make a big deal, it's just some nonsense." Don't regret it, old gentleman, after the book is completed, I will burn a copy for you. ”

Bae Hyun was originally a strange man, although he suffered a great disaster in his childhood and lost his life, but his temperament was extremely free, so even if he faced death, he didn't take it to heart at all.

Su Shi is also a human being in two lives, although life and death have not yet been seen through, but he will not be afraid of a tiger.

So the two are not taboo about this issue when they talk.

Pei Hyun said: "Then it's a word." ”

Su Shi deliberately showed a hint of embarrassment, and said: "But this matter is not urgent, so the old gentleman has been waiting below for a long time, don't come up to me in the middle of the night to ask for it." ”

Pei Hyun couldn't help but smile and said: "Wouldn't that be beautiful, and you can have a long talk with Xiaoyou." ”

After a burst of laughter, Su Shi asked, "Why did the old gentleman enter Beijing in the fifth year of Qianxing?" ”

Bae Hyun said: "Because it takes me two years to lay it out. ”

"Listen to me."

Baehyun asked, "Did you feel strange when you entered this room?" ”

Su Shi nodded, because this room was very large, but there were too few furnishings inside.

"This was originally my study." Bae Hyun continued: "If you had come here yesterday, you would have seen that there were eight rows of bookshelves here, and each row of bookshelves was full of papers. ”

Su Shi couldn't help but turn his head to look at the empty room and asked, "What about those documents?" ”

"It's all burned."

Su Shi asked silently, "What kind of documents are placed on the bookshelf?" ”

"The life, family history, characteristics, preferences, habits, whereabouts, ...... of sixteen people, everything related to the sixteen people will be recorded in the documents."

Su Shi's expression suddenly became solemn, and he asked slowly, "I'm afraid that collecting these will cost the old gentleman a lot of time and financial resources?" ”

"Money is something outside the body, but it does take a lot of time, and it took thirty years before and after."

"Why can these sixteen people enter the old man's eyes?"

Pei Xun said slowly: "I told Du Ziqi that killing a person can't change the overall situation, because the person killed by Du Ziqi has nothing to do with the overall situation. And these sixteen people are different and closely related to the overall situation. Every time one person is killed, the situation of this great cadre will change by one point. ”

Su Shi was shocked, and a chill rose in his heart.

Daqian has a hatred of destroying the country and destroying the clan in Pei Xun, so Pei Xun retaliated against Daqian, and Su Shi could understand it.

However, he also knows that no matter how strong an individual is, compared to a strong country, it is just an egg hitting a stone. So even if Pei Hyun killed the prince, in Su Shi's opinion, he was just venting his personal anger.

After all, there are not many princes who can live to ascend the throne in history, and the emperor has many children, so the death of a prince may not have much impact on a dynasty.

Killing one person may not damage the overall situation, but if he kills sixteen people who are closely related to the overall situation in a row, Su Shi can't imagine how big a storm it will be.

However, Su Shi immediately looked at Pei Xun suspiciously, because in the past ten years, except for the crown prince, no prince and important minister have died unexpectedly, and in the past ten years, Daqian has become more and more prosperous.

Su Shi couldn't help but probe tentatively: "Since the old gentleman has burned the documents of these sixteen people, are these people already ......?"

Bae Hyun shook his head.

Su Shi saw him shake his head, and as soon as he took a breath of relief, he heard Pei Xun say: "I only killed twelve of them, and the remaining four people haven't had time to do it." ”

Su Shi was puzzled: "Since the old gentleman has killed twelve of them, then the great cadre should have undergone a great change, why haven't I felt it?" ”

Pei Hyun said lightly: "Don't worry, son, I'm sure you'll see it soon." ”

Su Shi sighed: "Is the prince one of them?" ”

"Yes."

"How did the old gentleman arrange to kill the prince?"

Pei Xun said: "If you want to kill the prince, you must first kill Qi Yu and Tan Zhuo." ”

"Why?"

"Because eleven years have passed, and eleven years have been peaceful, they may not take my original words to heart, especially the prince."

Hearing this, Su Shi was suddenly startled, and suddenly understood why the prince had such abnormal behavior before he died.

He took a deep breath and asked slowly, "When did Qi Yu and Tan Zhuo die?" ”

"One died on the nineteenth of the winter month, and the other died on the twenty-first of the winter month."

"All accidents?"

"At least on the surface, it does."

Su Shi smiled bitterly: "Didn't you tell them the way to resolve it, have they forgotten it?" ”

Pei Hyun said: "Even if they don't forget, they still can't escape this catastrophe." ”

"Why?"

"Because the Ciyun Temple was destroyed in the third year of Qianxing."

Su Shi couldn't help but look at Pei Hyun, who smiled and said, "I didn't do it. The Taoist elders of the Ciyun Temple have been in contact with the dignitaries for a long time, especially the current His Majesty has learned the Tao in the temple, so they are arrogant, not only selling and buying land, but also bullying men and women. ”

Su Shi sighed, and then sighed: "After the prince learned of the death of Qi Yu and Tan Zhuo, he naturally remembered what Mr. said to him, so he would also act according to Mr. 's guidance. ”

"Is that spell poisonous?"

"If the crown prince died of poisoning, how could those imperial doctors not find out."

Su Shi smiled bitterly: "What method did the old gentleman use to kill the prince?" ”
