Yin Wenjiao slept soundly and deeply before dawn, and when she woke up, she felt surprisingly good, and her whole body was comfortable.

When she opened her eyes, it was already dawn, and she remembered that she had a lot of things to do today, and shouted, "Liu Lang, don't get up yet." Reaching out to push Liu Hong beside him, as soon as he moved his hand, he felt that his arms were wet, and when he raised his hand, his hands were full of blood.

Yin Wenjiao was taken aback, turned over and sat up, and found that a quilt was stained red with blood, and Liu Lang beside him had a sharp short sword slashed across his neck, his neck was almost cut off by the sword, his eyes were wide open, and he died of anger.

Footsteps outside the door, the maid heard Yin Wenjiao's screams and ran into the room, and saw Yin Wenjiao in underwear like a bloody person sitting on the bed trembling, the owner Liu Hong's neck was cut open by the sword, the wound was huge and miserable, the maid screamed, her feet were weak, and she fainted.

Xuanzang meditated and participated in Zen, suddenly felt a burst of heart beating, no matter how to recite the Heart Sutra did not work, he was upset, got up and paced back and forth in the room, suddenly heard the screams in the inner hall, Xuanzang's heart beat wildly, three or two steps to the back hall, pushed open the bedroom door, and was stunned.

In the room, her mother Yin Wenjiao was pale and dressed in blood, holding her father in her arms, not sad or happy, her face was calm. The father's eyes were round, the wound on his neck was huge, and on the ground, beside the maid who fainted in fright, he threw a bloody sharp short sword, the cold light flashed, and the blade was compelling.

My father killed himself at dawn?!

Xuanzang walked up to his mother and reached out to hold his father's body, which had become cold.

"Don't move!" said her mother, who said in a calm tone.

"Mother-" Xuanzang shouted, and his throat choked. My body couldn't help but tremble, and it felt like a knife stabbing in my body.

Yin Wenjiao's face was terrifyingly calm, she took off a green jade bracelet from her wrist, and said indifferently: "Little Master Xuanzang, you take this bracelet and go to the Prime Minister Yin Kaishan Mansion in Chang'an City, and ask Prime Minister Yin Kaishan to lead troops to kill the water thief Liu Hong, avenge your father Chen Guangrui, and save your mother from fire and water." ”

Xuanzang's saliva was bitter, his hands and feet were sore, and his abdomen was like a twist: "Mother, I don't understand——"

Mother suddenly opened her mouth to call him Master Xuanzang, and no longer called him 'my son', she called her grandfather, and even called him by his name and official position.

As soon as his father Liu Hong died, his mother was grieved to the extreme, and she was disheartened with the world and no longer had any hope and love.

"Little Master Xuanzang, why did your father suddenly kill himself?"

"I don't understand-" Xuanzang's heart was confused, his head began to crack, and he couldn't concentrate on thinking about the problem. Last night, although my father was not keen on sculpting the golden body of Guanyin Bodhisattva, he was still very active in making suggestions and fully supporting all the plans and arrangements of Xuanzang and Yin Wenjiao.

"As soon as he dies, he can save the reputation of my Yin family and the Liu family, and I can save my reputation, and I can also get rid of the world's infamy of 'adulterer-husband-adulteress-woman', and become a pitiful victim worthy of people's sympathy. Liu Lang's death can also save your reputation and future, so that you can call Chen Yi, not Liu Yi, the son of adultererous husband-adulterous woman. "Yin Wenjiao's mind is surprisingly clear.

"My father committed a bloody case, pretending to be the lord of Jiangzhou, and my grandfather brought troops to arrest him, his deeds will be publicized in the world, how can the reputation of the Liu family be fully applied?"

"The water thief Liu Hong is not the missing third young master in Kui Gong Liu Hongji's family, the missing third young master in Liu Hongji's family is not called Liu Hong, his name is Liu Wei. Death of a ruthless water thief Liu Hong, no one will think of Kui Gong Liu Hongji. And even if Prime Minister Yin Kaishan came with the troops, even if he knew the truth, he would keep silent, because he was a hypocrite, and his reputation was more important than his daughter's life and happiness, I stayed with his enemy's son Liu Wei for 18 years, this family ugly, he will only cover it desperately, and will not reveal a trace to others to know. ”

"Mother, I won't go to Chang'an City-"

"Little Master Xuanzang, if you don't go, your father will die in vain. Yin Wenjiao said coldly, "Are you also a selfish and hypocritical person like Yin Kaishan? Even if your father dies, don't you want to go to your mother's journey once?"

"Mother-I-"

"Little Master Xuanzang, you are a monk, don't call me mother anymore, I beg you to take my bracelet to Chang'an and ask Prime Minister Yin Kaishan to lead troops to kill Liu Hong's treacherous evil, save me out, and then help me complete a big thing. ”

"Mother-"

"Little Master Xuanzang, what are you crying for? No one has died? A person who dies is just existing in another form of life, not disappearing. You can't even see through this, so how can you cultivate the Tao and worship the Buddha and achieve the right result?"

"I-"

"If you still have a little bit of filial piety, and a little bit of pity for your parents, go to Chang'an as soon as possible to ask for helpers to kill the traitor and save me out. That blood letter is right, your father is Chen Guangrui, your mother is Yin Wenjiao, and your enemy Liu Hong. Also, please be sure to go to Hongzhou Wanhuadian first to find Chen Guangrui's old mother, who is your own grandmother, the old man has been waiting for us to pick her up for 18 years, and I don't know if she is alone now, whether she is alive or dead?"

Xuanzang fell to the ground and cried!

"Little Master Xuanzang, if you don't leave, are you trying to force me to commit suicide?" Yin Wenjiao said sharply. She groped on the bed with a bloody hand for a while, and threw down a handful of broken gold gold leaves on the ground with a snap: "Take the gold, set off immediately." The weather is hot, and Liu Lang's body is not easy for me to keep. If you are obedient, I will live a little longer, and if you are not obedient, I will kill myself immediately. ”

Xuanzang trembled all over, swept a few pieces of gold leaf and broken gold in his hand, stood up, glanced at his mother, did not look back, opened the door and rushed away from the back garden.

Xuanzang went to the horse market to buy two good horses, non-stop, all the way to transfer, five days and five nights, rushed 1,500 miles, came to Hongzhou Wanhuadian, found the shopkeeper Liu Xiaoer, and asked about his grandmother's situation.

"Donor, eighteen years ago, Chen Guangrui, the lord of Jiangzhou, lived in your store with his family and his mother, is that mother-in-law still with you?"

Liu Xiaoer looked Xuanzang up and down: "Little Master, that old man was originally in my shop, but she couldn't wait for his son for several years, she was looking forward to it day and night, crying and blinding." I didn't have rent for a long time, and I didn't have a penny for food, so I had no choice but to invite her out. She has been living in a dilapidated kiln at the south gate for 18 years, and she comes out at dawn to beg on the streets for a living. Hey, I don't know why her son, who went to Jiangzhou to be a big official, has not been heard from since he left. ”
