Capture the Jade:

Teng Shao picked up the portrait and walked slowly under the lamp.

Teng Yuyi put down her pen and suddenly asked, "Grandpa, do you know Taoism?"

Teng Shao was stunned: "Why do you ask such a question suddenly?"

"Grandpa just need to tell me if I can, I want to inquire about a few things about Taoism."

Teng Shao said softly: "Of course my grandfather doesn't know Taoism."

Teng Yuyi thought to herself, Grandpa's expression does not seem to be acting, so who helped her use this magic? Ever since she learned about her background from Xiaoya, she had thought about all the relatives around her, and felt that no one could possibly know this kind of evil Taoism. The adventure is also unknown.

But looking at it this way, it doesn't look like Grandpa did it.

"I often hear people say that anyone who survives a catastrophe will be infected with some evil spirits because of his walk in the dark, and I will suddenly have strange dreams that predict the future. This has something to do with it, so it's not surprising that you will attract ghosts because of your evil spirit."

These words explained why she always encountered evil spirits.

"So in my opinion, we don't need to look for Abbot Yuanjue. These strange dreams come true. If Abbot Yuanjue spies something, it may not be a good thing. The origin of the man in black is a mystery. Before revealing the identity of this person, I don't want to leak any information in front of outsiders, not even the eminent monks of Dayin Temple."

Teng Shao groaned, this worry is not unreasonable, but his daughter has encountered too many evil spirits recently, how can a father just sit idly by.

Teng Yuyi added: "Besides, my daughter also said just now that Prince Cheng was annoyed by the bell last night, so he specially set up formations inside and outside the mansion. The formation protects each other, why should we go to Abbot Yuanjue again? One more person who knows that there is something wrong with his daughter means one more risk, and if there are any rumors that are not good for her in Beijing because of this—

Teng Shao doesn't care about these things, he only cares about his daughter's safety, and it will be fine if his daughter's situation improves in a few days, if he still encounters ghosts frequently, he will take his daughter to Dayin Temple at the risk.

He quickly made up his mind: "It's okay to put it aside for now, but this year there are important things to be prepared for in Beijing. Abbot Yuanjue may suddenly retreat one day. At that time, we want to see Abbot Yuanjue It may not be possible, at most, wait a while, if it still fails, Grandpa must take you to Dayin Temple as soon as possible."

Teng Yuyi was stunned: "There is something important to be prepared for in Beijing? Why do you say that?"

Teng Shaolue pondered for a while, and even many ministers in the court didn't know much about it. If he hadn't returned to Beijing when he was young and served as a general of Zuowuwei for a few years, he would not have accidentally learned this secret of the royal family.

He recalled the strange dream his daughter had mentioned, and knew that there was one thing that must be confirmed as soon as possible.

"Tell grandpa first, you dreamed that Peng Zhen would rebel, but when did you dream that he would rebel?"

Teng Yuyi made up his mind: "There will be action in the middle of this year, and the imperial court will officially order the crusade in early February next year."

A look of astonishment flashed in Teng Shao's eyes.

"Why do you ask me that?"

Teng Shao nodded slowly: "It seems that Peng Zhen has calculated the time to rebel. If he rebels this year, it will happen that the sage needs to go out to treat his illness, and the sage is unable to take care of government affairs when he is ill. Bigger."

Teng Yuyi was taken aback. She had never heard of a saint suffering from a hidden disease.

"What disease does the saint suffer from?"

Teng Shao's complexion was unpredictable, and he walked to the table and sat down: "I remember my grandfather told you last time that the saint grew up in Qingyun Temple before he recognized his ancestors and returned to his clan."

"Remember."

Teng Shao: "The saint's biological mother, Concubine Hui, was the late emperor's side concubine. She was greatly favored by the late emperor during her lifetime. When Concubine Hui conceived a saint, the late emperor had not yet ascended the throne. When he learned that Concubine Hui was pregnant, the late emperor immediately asked for a canonization of the saint as the palace. For the future son, this incident aroused the jealousy of the late emperor's other side concubine, Concubine Yi. At that time, Concubine Yi was also pregnant. In order to keep her favor, she teamed up with an **** and spent countless efforts to set up a harmful situation.

"When Concubine Hui was about to give birth, she was framed by Concubine Yi and died of dystocia, and the newborn saint was transferred by Concubine Yi's people and taken outside the palace. When she was about to be killed and buried, Daoist Qing Xuzi rushed to see him Qingxuzi Daochang was originally Concubine Hui's old friend, so he immediately hid his true face and rescued the saint. After saving the saint, Qingxuzi was afraid of being chased and killed by Concubine Yi's people, so he hid his name and led the saint to live in seclusion in Qingyun Temple.

"Taoist Master Qingxuzi gave the saint the name 'Ahan', taught the saint Taoism, and raised the saint with heart. Princess Cheng is another apprentice of the Taoist priest Qingxuzi. She grew up in Qingyun Temple since she was a child. .

"Concubine Yi learned that someone had saved Concubine Hui's child, so she used the birth date of the deceased Concubine Hui and the saint to create an extremely vicious 'Seven Evil Locking Infant Formation', using the resentment of Concubine Hui after her unjust death , to suppress the spiritual root of the sage, because of this, no matter what Master Qing Xuzi teaches, the mind of the sage is much more stupid than ordinary people.”

Teng Yuyi was taken aback, and used his mother's formation to restrain his son? Not to mention the miserable experience of Concubine Hui's mother and son, what kind of heart does Concubine Yi have to come up with such a vicious situation.

"It took eighteen years for this matter to turn around. In that year, Daoist Master Qingxuzi, Abbot Yuanjue, and Cheng Wang and his wife finally worked together to find Concubine Yi's formation. Concubine Hui's wronged soul, and also found out the truth about Concubine Yi's murder of Concubine Hui's mother and child.

"The first emperor hated Concubine Yi so much that he not only killed Concubine Yi on the spot, but also abolished a group of Concubine Yi's children. He also learned that Concubine Hui strayed into the magic way because of the damage of the formation. □Reincarnation. The first emperor asked Qing Xuzi to lead the formation and exchange the fate of Concubine Hui with that of Concubine Yi. In this way, Concubine Yi will not be reincarnated forever, while Concubine Hui can be reincarnated smoothly."

Teng Yuyi became more and more astonished. It turned out that as early as eighteen years ago, someone in Chang'an had used the so-called "life-changing and borrowing life" technique, and the person who presided over the life-changing formation at that time was Daoist Qingxuzi.

According to this, does Qingyun Temple hide the secret book containing the "life-changing technique"?

"The sage has been murdered by the seven evil infant lock formation for eighteen years. Although the formation can restore his sanity, the evil spirit remaining in his body will break out every few years. Fortunately, although Concubine Hui has become The demon, however, recognized that Ahan in front of her was her son. Before she was converted, she took the initiative to sacrifice her spirit-locking card. Since she was the "demon" in front of the formation, the demon willingly offered the spirit-locking card, which meant that The Qisha infantry formation is no longer an formation of 'harming children', but a formation of 'protecting children'.

"The spirit-locking card was divided into two parts, one piece was submerged in the saint's body, and the other was submerged in the body of Cheng Wang Lin Xiao who was present at the time. With these two pieces of spirit-locking card protecting each other, even if the evil spirit in the saint's body every three years Once it happens, it will not damage the sanity of the saint. As long as the spirit-locking cards are combined into one when the formation is launched, the evil spirit will be calmed down immediately."

"If the other spirit-locking card is in Cheng Wang's body..." Teng Yu thoughtfully said, "That is to say, every time the formation is launched to detoxify the saint, Cheng Wang must be present?"

"Yes." Teng Shao said, "a saint cannot do without another spirit lock card in his life. As long as he is not in line after time, the evil spirit will endanger the sanity of the saint. It is inevitable for others to have evil thoughts, but Cheng Wang Lin Xiao is upright and upright, Cheng Wangfei Qushi values ​​love and righteousness, the husband and wife have never slackened in protecting the saint for the past 18 years, thanks to their dedication to protect each other for many years, the saint has always been healthy and safe."

Teng Yuyi was secretly startled, no wonder Lin Chengyou's nobility is beyond the reach of any powerful son in Chang'an, it turns out that there is such a deep bond between the saint and Chengwang couple.

"So Yu'er, you should know why the sage and the empress love Lin Chengyou's three brothers and sisters so much. In addition to a natural kinship, there is also gratitude and reward for the care and support of the junior and younger couples over the years."

Teng Yuyi nodded, picked up the cold tea cup at hand, and took a sip of the tea to suppress her shock.

Teng Shao said again: "This matter should not have been leaked, but when Taoist Priest Qingxuzi and Abbot Yuanjue Duhuahui Concubine, there were many ministers present, even if the court kept silent about it, it still leaked a little bit afterwards The sound of the wind. Counting the years, it’s time to start fighting again this year. It’s still a mystery when the sage will attack, but no matter what, Cheng Wang and his wife will definitely rush back to Chang’an before then. It’s not surprising that Peng Zhen will choose this year to rebel, as long as he wants If there is no way to prevent King Cheng from joining forces with the sage, the sage will be unable to command the counter-insurgency battle, and Peng Zhen's chances of winning will be much higher."

Teng Yuyi thought about it, and thought that Peng Zhen had been planning for this for many years, that's why so many rebels who were capable of magic suddenly appeared in Chang'an in her previous life. Grandpa is never unprepared.

In addition, she also remembered that the saint in the previous life was not only healthy, but also personally commanded the counter-insurgency campaign, which shows that Peng Zhen's trick failed in the end.

Just as she was about to speak, another scene suddenly flashed before her eyes.

That time, because Lin Chengyou sealed her Xiaoya sword, she had a very deep nightmare. In the dream, she not only experienced all kinds of things before her death, but also dreamed about what happened three years after her death. thing.

I remember her wandering spirit wandering around Grandpa's temple, and saw many eunuchs who came to clean up. While the eunuchs were chatting, someone suddenly ran in to report that Lin Chengyou was confronting Tubo in Fufang Mansion , was accidentally shot in the back by a secret agent, although Lin Chengyou caught the secret agent on the spot, but the arrow was smeared with poison, and the poison soon took effect. Lin Chengyou knew that he would not survive, so he told his subordinates not to tell the truth Xuzi Daoist.

In the end, the news reached Chang'an, Cheng Wang and Qing Xuzi were so anxious that they rushed to Fufang overnight...

Thinking of this, Teng Yuyi's heart skipped a few beats. She had no way of knowing what happened next, because she was quickly awakened by an old voice.

I don't know what happened to Lin Chengyou afterwards, she thought it was just a dream, after all, she had never experienced all this before her death, and she couldn't figure out who in Beijing would hate Lin Chengyou so much that he wanted to take his life. But now that I think about it, does that scene in the temple indicate something?

According to the calculation of the time and date, three years later will be the time when the sage will have an attack, and the location will be in Fufang, which is far away. Cheng Wang, his wife and Taoist Qingxuzi will definitely leave Chang'an in order to save Lin Chengyou.

If something happens to Lin Chengyou, it's hard to say whether Cheng Wang and Qing Xuzi can come to join the formation in time. In this way, the evil spirit in the saint's body will inevitably collide with his mind.

When the monarch falls, the court will be shaken.

She hurriedly told Grandpa about the dream.

"The imperial court has successfully put down the rebellion, Peng Zhen's party was completely wiped out, Shuofang army successfully repelled the Tubo army, Lin Chengyou successfully rescued the siege of Fufang, good news spread frequently from all directions, and suddenly someone plotted against Lin Chengyou, if this When the sage gets angry, King Cheng and Taoist priest may not be able to rush back."

Teng Shao was shocked.

"Could it be a secret work sent by Tubo?"

"In my dream, I only vaguely heard that Xi Zuo had stayed in Lin Chengyou's army for a long time. When Xi Zuo plotted against Lin Chengyou, no one seemed to be prepared."

There was a huge wave in Teng Shao's heart. A small soldier suddenly plotted against the coach, and there must be someone behind the scenes.

If Lin Chengyou was plotted against, it would be logical to transfer Cheng Wang and Qing Xuzi out of Chang'an.

This is indeed killing three birds with one stone. If the daughter's dream is true, then apart from Peng Zhen, there is a high possibility that there are people in the court who want to plot rebellion.

Peng Zhen is in the light, but that person is in the dark.

Teng Shao pondered over and over, pacing back and forth, even though he had completely believed his daughter's words at this moment, he needed time to clear his mind.

"For King Cheng, Grandpa will send someone to remind him immediately. King Cheng is a cautious person, and he will do his best to take precautions when he finds out." Teng Shao said.

Teng Yuyi breathed a sigh of relief.

"As soon as King Cheng gets the news, the court will make preparations. But now we only know that Peng Zhen is rebellious, and there is another person behind the scenes. Grandpa will start to investigate as soon as possible."

Teng Yuyi hurriedly said: "That man quietly set up such a game, both the city and the strategy are impressive, sir, you--"

"Grandpa knows it well." Teng Shao looked at his daughter with relief, and before he knew it, her daughter's head almost reached his shoulders, and the father and daughter had clearly talked about the swords and swords in their dreams all night, so what did he do? But my father felt unprecedentedly at ease.

He rolled up the picture: "It's getting late, go back to bed first. The things you said are very important, let Grandpa think about it tonight."

The conversation between father and daughter lasted for two hours, and by the time Teng Yuyi returned to her small courtyard, it was almost late at night.

The strange thing is that Teng Yuyi doesn't feel tired at all, the dark secrets in her heart have a place to go, Grandpa's firm gaze makes her feel that she is no longer a ghost walking alone in the dark, and the strings in her mind don't have to be tensed all the time Tight, at least you don't have to worry about being assassinated even in your dreams.

Her heart is full and her thoughts are peaceful, and this sleep is sweeter than ever before.

I don't know how long she slept, but a light itch on the tip of her nose woke her up.

"Get up quickly, you little lazy bastard." Elder Sister's smiling voice came from my ear.

Teng Yuyi opened her eyes in a daze, and there was a pair of clear and gentle pupils in front of her.

She turned around lazily: "Sister, don't make noise, let me sleep for a while."

"Still sleeping, the Taoist chief is here." Du Tinglan fished her sister out of the quilt.

Teng Yuyi lost her sleepiness, and hurriedly got out of bed to freshen up.

Juesheng and Qizhi were waiting for Teng Yuyi in the garden, and when they saw Teng Yuyi and Du Tinglan approaching, they said happily: "Ms. Teng, Mrs. Du."

Teng Yuyi smiled from ear to ear: "Oh, I went to bed late, thank you for waiting. Cheng Bo has already prepared breakfast, let's go have breakfast first."

This is what the two parties agreed on yesterday. Juesheng and Qizhi nodded happily. Madam Teng didn't know what was going on. Seeing her refreshed, they handed the lacquer box in their arms to Teng Yuyi: " This is for Lady Teng."
