Xiao Ji was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly turned around, only to see two people standing outside the abbot, one was Lord Shen Yueshen, the prime minister of the dynasty, and the other was three locks of long beard, his face was slightly yellow, with a faint sick look, but this person was elegant, and he was not angry and arrogant, he was very surprised when he saw it, he didn't expect to meet him here. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"It turned out to be General Wei, and I didn't expect to see the general in Yongzhou. Xiao Ji hurriedly stepped forward, Wei Rui's third son, Wei Ling, has been playing with their brothers since he was a child, and Wei Ling is still the companion of the second prince Xiao Zong. This Wei Rui is a general relied on by his father Xiao Yan, and his status is high, and he is not under Cao Jingzong. It's just that in recent years, he has been unwell and has not been able to lead the troops to fight, and when his father mentions him, he is always full of praise, and he Xiao Ji naturally knows the name of Wei Rui.

Wei Rui smiled faintly: "Your Highness, I haven't seen you for a few years, Your Highness's talent is indeed getting more and more outstanding." ”

"Lord Shen, General Wei, I Xiao Ji didn't know that the two adults also came to the Fuxian Temple, I don't know the two adults, why are you here?"

"Lord Shen is here to pay tribute to an old friend who has passed away, as for why I am here, Your Highness really doesn't know?" Wei Rui asked with a smile.

Xiao Ji shook his head, he really didn't know why this General Wei appeared in Yongzhou, but at this time, his heart was already in chaos, and he didn't know how to deal with today's matter.

"Today, the emperor has named me the history of the Yongzhou assassin, and I came to this Yongzhou precisely to understand the people's feelings and do my own job as the Yongzhou assassin. Although Wei Rui had a smile on his face, his words were quite tough.

"Alas, I heard my father talk about this matter, but I forgot, General Wei, you are the parent official of Yongzhou, and it can be said that you are here in good faith. Xiao Ji suddenly remembered Wei Rui's official position, and felt a little ashamed in his heart, this Wei Rui was named the general of Pingbei and the assassin of Yongzhou, but the holy decree of his father himself, for his father's decision, he was still a little puzzled at the time, why let a general who led the army to fight come here to serve as the assassin.

"Your Highness, now that the emperor has handed over the tragedy of Lord Zhang Yuanzhi's murder to me, if His Highness can provide clues to the old man, then I am grateful. Wei Rui still had an indifferent expression, but his words, to Xiao Ji's ears, were so harsh, of course he had this clue, but at this time he could never say it.

"Two adults, I have a named master-apprentice relationship with the abbot, and now I have made a special trip to visit my master------ and now that the master has seen it, I think, I should also go back. Xiao Ji didn't dare to stay for a long time at this time, he could only leave quickly, if he was one step too late, he was afraid that he would be tricked by this General Wei.

Wei Rui's cold gaze looked around the abbot, and the abbot rummaged through the cabinets, which was extremely messy, and at a glance, he knew that he had been searched. He naturally understood that His Royal Highness Xiao Ji must be rummaging for something, and when he turned his gaze to Xiao Ji, the expression in his eyes softened a little: "Since His Royal Highness has already come, please ask His Royal Highness to stay and enjoy the light, and let me, the assassin of Yongzhou, do his best as a landlord." ”

"General Wei, don't be polite, I have other things to do, so I'd better go back first. Lord Shen, stay together, stay here!" Xiao Ji knew that he couldn't look for the so-called secret letter at this time, he could only go back to his life first, and then come to look for it later.

"Since this is the case, then it is inconvenient for me to force Your Highness, if Your Highness encounters any trouble in the Yongzhou territory, you can come to me or I, who is not a driver of Zhang Shan, and I will definitely help Your Highness deal with the matter. Wei Rui naturally followed his words.

"General Wei is polite, then I'll leave first!" Xiao Ji knew the weight of this Wei Rui's words, his words were not salty or light, and if he continued to delve into it, it would be meaningless.

"Ah, Lord Zhang, let's send His Highness together. Wei Rui hurriedly preached to Zhang Shan.

"The two adults better stay, don't be polite. Xiao Ji hurriedly stopped.

Wei Rui naturally didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly sent Xiao Ji outside the temple gate, watching his guards escort him out of Fuxian Temple before returning to the abbot.

The monks in the temple were cleaning the smashed and damaged objects inside the abbot. When the abbot saw Wei Rui returning here, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "Amitabha, I don't know how much General Wei came to the small temple, and he was so lazy, I hope the general will forgive me." ”

"Master doesn't have to be polite, I, Wei Rui, came here today, just to learn more about the affairs in the state and county, I didn't expect to meet His Royal Highness Xiao Ji, and it was a coincidence that the book was not written. ”

"Master, if the old man is not mistaken, this His Royal Highness Xiao Ji is your registered disciple. ”

"Alas...... It's really ashamed to say that I, a registered disciple, is now getting more and more powerful, and I don't take Lao Wei in my eyes at all. The abbot wanted to say a few more words, but when he saw Shen Yue and Wei Rui coming together, he didn't want to say anything, but smiled bitterly, intending to perfunctory.

"Abbot, I, Wei Huaiwen, have something to ask for!" Wei Rui is extremely smart, and he can see through the abbot's unspeakable secrets at a glance.

"General Wei has something to say, please speak in person!" the abbot hurriedly said.

"It's getting late today, I don't know if the abbot can take him in for the night. Wei Rui asked with a smile.

"Huh...... It was natural to welcome the two adults to live in the temple. The abbot hurriedly replied.

"Huaiwenna...... Today, you will rest in this temple, I will rush to add a handful of soil to the grave of my old friend, and I will leave!" That Shen Yue naturally understood Wei Rui's intention to stay in the temple, but his current identity was no longer suitable for direct questioning him, and this Wei Rui was named the general of Pingbei and the assassin of Yongzhou by the emperor, and the deep meaning of this, with his experience of the elders of these two dynasties, can naturally feel it, but there are too many things in this world, which can be seen but cannot be broken, for the emperor's intentions, he can only deeply press in his heart, and he can not say it.

"In this way, then I will not leave Lord Shen to talk in the temple, and when I return to the capital, I will come to visit my lord. Wei Rui bowed.

"Master Wei doesn't have to be polite, the old man says goodbye!" After Shen Yue returned the salute, he slowly walked out of the temple gate and went straight to the suburbs.

Wei Rui looked at Shen Yue's figure in a hurry, his heart sank slightly, he hurriedly called Zhang Shan to his side, whispered a few words, Zhang Shan nodded and walked out.

More than three hours later, Zhang Shancai rushed back to the temple, he came to Wei Rui's meditation room, closed the door, and said softly to Wei Rui: "General, I have inquired." ”

"Oh, take your time. Wei Rui also lowered his voice and said.

"After Lord Shen left the monastery, he arrived at a nunnery more than ten miles away from here. Zhang Shan has been following Shen Yue from afar, not daring to let Shen Yue find himself, that Shen Yue has no defense at all, and runs all the way to the destination.

"Nunnery?" Wei Rui was slightly stunned after hearing this, how could this prime minister casually go to a nunnery? There must be something in this.

"The lower officials heard about this, and they really didn't know anything else. Zhang Shan replied honestly.

"Master Zhang, it's really hard for you. Wei Rui knew that Zhang Shan had done his best, so he said gently.

"Whatever the general says, these are what the subordinate should do. ”

"Go down and rest, I don't understand something, I need to think again. ”

"Yes, General!" Zhang Shan replied, and then walked out of the meditation room.

In the Fuxian Temple, Wei Rui slowly paced out from the meditation room, and in the Daxiong Treasure Hall in front of him, there was a faint sound of monks chanting. Wei Rui stood in the courtyard, because of Zhang Yuanzhi's matter, he was originally a little irritable in his heart, but at this time, he stood there quietly listening to the soft and low voice, and his heart gradually became calmer.

"General Wei......" The abbot came behind him at some point.

"Abbot!" Wei Rui came back to his senses and hurriedly turned around and replied.

"General Wei came this time, presumably because he did not alarm the people in the official mansion. The abbot smiled slightly, if Wei Rui came to the temple under the banner of the government, I am afraid that at this time, there will not be such a quiet moment in the temple.

"Master Abbot is really smart, I, Wei Huaiwen, came here this time, and it is indeed a private visit to Weifu. Wei Rui replied with a smile.

"Does General Wei have anything to ask at this time?" The abbot didn't want to come to these empty things anymore at this time, this Wei Rui insisted on staying in the temple, he must have something to ask himself, and in front of Shen Yue, the prime minister of the court, he was naturally inconvenient to say.

"The abbot and Lord Zhang Yuanzhi naturally have a very deep friendship, right?" Wei Rui pondered for a while, but still spoke.

"It's been an old friend for more than 20 years, so it's naturally familiar. "The abbot told the truth.

"Before Lord Zhang was in trouble, did you find the abbot?" Wei Rui remembered that in the chaotic abbot, Xiao Ji must not have found what he needed.

"The matter of Hongchen has been far away from this temple, I don't know why General Wei said this?" The abbot's heart sank, the Wei Rui in front of him was far from the intelligence of ordinary people, he could think of things that others had not thought of, but he was afraid that his little caution had already been seen through by him.

"Before His Royal Highness came to the temple, I am afraid that this red dust thing has already left the temple. Wei Rui's tone was extremely flat, but the abbot was extremely shocked when he heard it, he had already heard of this General Wei, but Wei Rui revealed the secret he had buried in his heart at this time, and he was still very surprised.

"Amitabha ......" The abbot had to be perfunctory, he didn't know where to start.

"Abbot, if there is something unspeakable, can Huaiwen start first, how about it?"

"This ......," the abbot didn't know what Wei Rui meant.

"Abbot, please speak inside. Wei Rui invited the abbot into the meditation room to talk, and he motioned Zhang Shan to pay attention to the situation outside. Naturally, Zhang Shan's eyes widened, carefully observing the situation around him.

In the meditation room, Wei Rui made a pot of tea and poured a cup for the abbot, who looked at the heat rising in front of him and was speechless for a while.

"Twenty years ago, there was a big event in the boundary of Yongzhou, does the abbot still remember?" Wei Rui took a sip of tea, the tea leaves in this temple must have been left for a long time, and the aroma became lighter.

"I don't know what the general is talking about, what does it have to do with my old monk?" the abbot naturally didn't understand why he mentioned twenty years ago.

"Twenty years ago, Lord Zhang married his daughter!" Wei Rui finished drinking his cup of tea and turned his gaze to the abbot sitting opposite, the abbot's face suddenly changed, but then his gaze was indifferent.

The old monk naturally remembered that Lord Zhang's daughter married into the Fan family. ”

"The abbot really has an excellent memory, Huaiwen has something unclear, and I want to ask the abbot here. Wei Rui naturally saw the surprise that flashed on the abbot's face.

"General, please speak, as long as the old monk can remember, he will definitely inform the general. At this time, the abbot already knew that he was no match for the Pingbei general in front of him. This person has a very high mind and can think of things that ordinary people can't think, and if this person wants to do something, I'm afraid that no one can stop him.

Huaiwen only asked the abbot three questions, the abbot can answer or not, Huaiwen came to the temple with these three questions, presumably the abbot has already understood in his chest, why Huaiwen only asked these three questions. ”

"General...... Please speak!" the abbot smiled slightly bitterly, no matter what Wei Rui wanted to ask, he could only answer.

"The first question: Before Lord Zhang was in trouble, did his daughter Zhang Qifeng come to this temple?"

The abbot was stunned for a moment, he didn't know how to answer Wei Rui's question.

"The second question: Who did the abbot hand over the things that Master Zhang had placed at the abbot's place?" Wei Rui drank the second cup of tea.

“......”

"The third question: Who is the woman who replaced Miss Zhang Qifeng's easy marriage?"

The abbot's face at this time has become extremely pale, Wei Rui's three questions have already broken his psychological defense line, he originally thought that he could easily fool Wei Rui over, but he didn't expect that the General Wei in front of him was not only a master of leading troops to fight, but also a strange person who solved the mystery.

"Abbot, are these three questions difficult to answer?" Wei Rui saw that the cup of tea in front of the abbot was already cold, so he poured out the tea and poured him another cup of hot tea.

The abbot was already in turmoil at this time, he didn't know how to answer Wei Rui's question, that Miss Zhang Qifeng, she had indeed come to the temple, she had asked to see her father more than once, but Lord Zhang Yuanzhi refused to see her, for the servants under Miss Zhang Qifeng, who had repeatedly sent letters to the house, Lord Zhang even opened his mouth to abuse, and the father and daughter did not meet in the end. It's just that this matter, how to say it to Wei Rui.

"General Wei, it seems that you really want to solve the tragedy of Lord Zhang's family...... It's just that the general thinks about what the general's situation will be when this case is solved?"

"Huaiwen has fought in the killing field all his life, and he has seen more than one life and death? If you cringe because of this, it is not my Wei Rui's style. ”

"Okay!" the abbot let out a long sigh of relief, he stared at Wei Rui in front of him and said, "Lord Zhang's daughter, before Lord Zhang was in trouble, she did come to this temple. ”

"Thank you, Abbot, can you answer the second question?" What Wei Rui wanted to know most at this time was who these physical evidence had gotten into.

"The second question, the old monk can naturally answer the general, the things that Lord Zhang has deposited here have been handed over to the people who should be handed over. The abbot replied with a blank face.

“...... Ah, please also ask the abbot to answer Wairn's third question. Wei Rui suddenly regretted that the question he had just asked was too rough, but the words had been spoken, and it was impossible to change it.

"This third question, the old monk can't answer the general. The abbot replied slowly.

"Why can't you answer?" asked Wei Rui, a little puzzled.

"The old monk never knew that someone was marrying Miss Zhang for him, and how to answer the general. The abbot replied cleverly.

Wei Rui smiled, he couldn't imagine that the abbot in front of him could answer his question so smartly, but when the abbot answered his three questions, he had inadvertently revealed what Wei Rui wanted to know.

"Where is Miss Zhang now?" he asked suddenly.

"Amitabha, General, you are now asking the fourth question, and it is impossible for the old monk to answer your fourth question. The abbot bowed his head and softly rejected him.

"It seems that the abbot has a deep relationship with that Ling Xiao. Wei Rui sighed softly.

When the abbot heard this, his body shook slightly, and he hurriedly reached out to hold the corner of the table. He never expected that the word Ling Xiao would come out of Wei Rui's mouth.
