The Grandmaster Strategist Chapter 10: Heart cruel
After these guards left, somebody sent these corpses to the dehumanizing field in the West Palace. The corpses of these people did not have the scenery of burial. They could only be cremated by stuffing them in the furnace. These things have their own rough eunuchs. No one cared about it, so no one noticed that before the cremation, there was a missing body. Even if someone noticed it, they wouldn't be bored.
On June 13th, the news of the ban on the prince's prince has spread. The young prince Fu Lu Jingzhong and the princess of Jingjiang Li Hanyou and the prince's concubine Xiao Lan gathered together to discuss countermeasures, regardless of their suspicions. Helpless, the prince did such things, in any case, can not immediately let the emperor calm down. When the three of them were in distress, someone suddenly smiled and said: "Why, have you encountered a problem?"
The three of them looked up, and saw a woman in commoner standing at the door. Although she looked plain, her bullying attitude was not to be underestimated. Xiao Lan and Li Hanyou were overjoyed and stood up and said, "Master sister, you are here."
Wen Ziyan smiled and said: "Not only I am here, but the master and his elders have also arrived. They are doing a clean repair in Qixia Temple."
Xiao Lan and Li Hanyou were both happy and worried. They watched Wen Ziyan tremblingly, Xiao Lan plucked up the courage and said: "We are not doing things badly. If the sect master blames it, please ask the senior sister to say something for us. ."
Wen Ziyan smiled slightly, and said: "Okay, Master, she is not angry. You should go and see her first. If you have anything to let Master decide, it will prevent you from worrying like this. Lu Shaofu, you go too. , The master said that I want to see you."
Li Hanyou and the others were overjoyed, changed their plain clothes in a hurry, and the flying horse went out of the city without being noticeable along the way. It was not until a temple on the east outskirts of Chang'an that they stayed on the horse and walked slowly. Lu Jingzhong was not good at equestrian and fell behind. Li Hanyou and Xiao Lan didn’t care about him either. They lost their horses and walked into Qixia Temple. This Qixia Temple covers several acres and belongs to Fengyimen's property. Every time the Fengyimen master enters Beijing, he is always here. While living, the two of them walked in and found that the nuns who usually took care of the place were no longer there. On both sides of the tree-lined path leading to the residence of the doorkeeper stood countless women in Tsing Yi, all wearing long swords, and their faces were as cold as frost. . When the two arrived in front of Wutongxuan where the master lived, they saw four women standing on the left and right in front of the door, all wearing snow-colored shirts. Although there were no hairpins and brocades, the clothes were also very gorgeous. The two hurriedly gave salutes. Although these four women are only in their thirties, they are all over forty years old. They are all cronies of the Fengyi sect master. They were the maids who accompanied Fan Huiyao to the world, so their status is very respected.
The two walked into the Xuan. The furnishings in the Wutong Xuan were very elegant. The floor was covered with snow-white felt blankets. There were light blue curtains on the surrounding walls. A bead curtain divided the room into two halves, and the curtain was faint There was a Hu bed, and a woman in snow clothes leaned on the Hu bed, separated by bead curtains, so she couldn't see her expression.
Xiao Lan and Li Hanyou knelt down in front of the curtain, and said in unison: "The disciple knocks on the master, I am incompetent, and ask the master to punish me."
The woman opened her mouth and said: "It's no wonder you, you have done your best." The voice was as round as pearls and jade, but as clear as a cold spring. Although she couldn't see her face, but the woman opened her mouth, faint. Xiao Lan and Li Hanyou didn’t dare to slack off. The two exchanged glances. Xiao Lan said, "Master, all disciples are incompetent. Your Royal Highness and Chunbi have an affair, disciple. I already knew, and tried every means to want the prince to sever contact with the woman, but the prince was very angry and refused to obey. He also had a rift with us for this. The disciple had to find another way, but unexpectedly there was a problem at this time. "
The woman sighed and said: "His Royal Highness refused to listen, why not let Ji Xia try to kill Chun Lai?" Her words were soft and cold. Xiao Lan was in a cold sweat, speechless, Li Hanyou quickly said: "This matter is already being planned. We never imagined that the prince would go to a private meeting with Chunbi during the fast. Originally, I wanted to wait until the ceremony before doing it. "
The woman said indifferently: "Well, the matter is over, and it is meaningless to pursue it. Can Hanyou know how the situation is now?"
Li Han walked quietly on his knees and said respectfully: "The emperor has given all people involved in this matter to death, and Chunbi has also committed suicide. In the prince confinement palace, the emperor has not taken any further punishments. In addition, your majesty has ordered the Prime Minister today. Wei Guan, Shizhong Zheng Xia, Fuyuan General Qin Yi, and Wei Guogong Cheng Shu entered the palace to discuss. They were afraid that the punishment would come down in the next day. The disciple had already asked the son-in-law to plead for the prince, but according to the son-in-law, the father-in-law No comment."
The woman sighed and said: "This matter is unusual. No matter who intercedes, the emperor will not be angry. At this time, as long as the prince’s reserve is temporarily kept, there is still room for change, otherwise it will be nothing. The King Yong succeeded. This seat has just issued an order to mobilize all forces to suppress the forces that intend to overthrow the crown prince’s position. Only with King Yong, you must do it yourself."
Li Hanyou said in a puzzled way: "The sect master, King Yong has been coveting the crown prince for a long time. How can I forbear it at this time?"
The woman said lightly: "If it is normal, he will naturally refuse, but this time he has to follow. The Splendid Alliance is his biggest fatal injury."
Li Hanyou was taken aback for a moment, and said: "The sect master, is there any relationship between the Jinxiumeng matter and King Yong?"
The woman said coldly: "Hanyou, you are still too young, let me ask you, if the crown prince and the Jinxiumeng smuggle, can they really hide the eyes and ears of the king? This is the world, the military forces Half of them are in the hands of King Yong. If he hadn't deliberately indulged him, how could the prince get his wish?"
Li Hanyou said: "But Jiang Zhe was seriously injured at the time, and King Yong was worried about this. Where can I still have the energy to manage these things?"
The woman laughed and said: "Hanyou, you know the truth of'a small amount is not a gentleman, non-toxic and not a husband'. If King Yong would really forget the world for the sake of a Jiang Zhe, then he would not be worthy of this seat. Besides, the Splendid Alliance was originally a rebellion referred to by Qianfu in Southern Chu. How could it have the ability to start a business with Southern Chu? Although Jige was mysterious that day, it was a force of Southern Chu but it could not be wrong. If it weren’t for the King of Yong, who could make the Jinxiu League, which was originally supported by the army of the Great Yong, reconcile with the Southern Chu forces, I think that that day, even if the Jige was not a subordinate of the King of Yong, it had a great connection with the King of Yong. Na Jiang Although Zhe’s status in Nanchu is not high, this person is unpredictable. I asked you to assassinate this person in the first place, but unfortunately it fell short."
Li Hanyou cautiously asked: "If the Splendid League was made by King Yong, why did the master chase Huo Jicheng everywhere?"
The woman sighed and said: "If you really want to hunt down Huo Jicheng, it's better to stare at Yongwang Mansion, Hanyou, you know that many people in the rivers and lakes in recent years are unwilling to submit to the authority of my Fengyi Sect , But I, Feng Yimen, are leaders of the Bai Dao, and I cannot suppress it casually. Without this excuse, how could I find opportunities to eradicate those ambitious gangs one by one. They want Huo Jicheng to make trouble and ruin the prince’s reputation outside. This seat has used this opportunity to eradicate dissidents. Besides, what does the prince’s reputation have to do with us? His reputation is worse, and it is even more inseparable from our support. It’s just that the prince is too much this time. If he doesn’t make a move, I’m afraid his position as the prince will not be guaranteed."
Li Hanyou's eyes lit up and said: "Master, if we take this opportunity to discuss with King Yong, if he is willing to obey, we will let him ascend the throne, so as not to support this unable to support A Dou."
The woman said angrily: "Fuzzy, if King Yong was so obedient, why did I choose the prince as a puppet?"
Li Hanyou was so frightened that he bowed to the ground and dared not speak out.
After a while, the woman said in a calm tone: "Well, Lan'er, you go back to comfort the prince and the people, and said that this seat will definitely keep the prince's place."
Xiao Lan looked hesitant, but didn't dare to ask more, and then prayed: "Disciple obeys." Quietly exited. After another moment, the woman said in a calm tone: "Finally, Hanyou, you are not unreasonable. The prince is so unscrupulous, we can't help but let others talk about it after I meet King Yong. But you Don’t go out and talk nonsense. This matter is of great importance and cannot be spread."
Li Hanyou breathed a sigh of relief and said: "The disciple is reckless, please forgive me."
The woman sighed and said, "Hanyou, do you know who the tempter Xia Jinyi is?"
Li Han said in a frightened voice: "The disciple only knows that he is a Kongtong abandoned disciple, a prodigal son, why did the master ask him? Isn't he dead?"
The woman was silent for a moment, and said: "Even though he is dead, there is one thing that you still need to know. His real name is Xia Quan."
Li Han murmured the name several times, her eyes turned from confusion to fear, and her face looked like gray ashes: "Master, how can he live? Didn't you promise that the disciple would not leave trouble?" /
The woman said coldly: "Are you asking this seat?"
Li Han woke up suddenly and quickly bowed: "The disciple didn't dare, but he was in a hurry. I beg the master for forgiveness."
The woman sighed faintly, and said: "My son, Princess Jingjiang asked me to find the whereabouts of the daughter she and the prince gave birth to. When the princess was waiting to give birth, it was a crime of thieves and the princess lost the princess. Heartbroken, it’s a pity that I checked carefully later. This baby girl died in the chaos army a long time ago. Originally, this matter was forgotten, but that day Huiqiu passed by your house and saw that you were exceptionally talented and couldn’t bear your good quality. Abandoned the people and brought you back. At that time, you didn’t mean to pretend to be the princess, so you just killed your in-laws to prevent them from spreading the word. After all, you are already their daughter-in-law. Unexpectedly, when I saw you, I realized that you and Princess Jingjiang are similar in appearance, which moved Li Daitao’s stiff thoughts. Originally I only thought that this background is beneficial to you, but now it really works, but when I sent someone to cut the grass and remove the roots, there was a problem. After the husband-in-law returned to Kongtong, he reported the matter to the Master Sect. Although they had no evidence to know that you were taken away by the Fengyi Sect, they already had suspicions. This way, the murder would inevitably show signs, so although I promised You can’t do it. I originally wanted to wait until he came down the mountain and think of a way to make him die. But he was quickly expelled from the division. I guess it must be because the head of Kongtong did not want to be an enemy of Fengyi. , So he was even more reluctant to kill him. Otherwise, it doesn’t matter if his life is low, but he has confirmed the fact that Fengyimen murdered and killed people. Later, I arranged to monitor Xia Quan’s people to report back. This person is not able to move forward, and there will be nothing. Danger, I think you are a member of the royal family. How could you have the opportunity to meet him, so I didn’t pay attention to him anymore. I didn’t expect you to meet at the Prince’s Mansion."
Li Han's thoughts are not authentic: "Master, do you think he recognized me?"
The woman smiled and said: "Whether he denies you, he has now died under Leng Chuan's palm and his bones are turned into ashes. What are you afraid of, but I don’t know if he has told others, you know how close he is People?"
Li Hanyou thought for a while and said: "Only two people might know, one is the princess's maid, Xiuchun, and the other is his senior brother Zhang Jinxiong."
The woman sneered: "Then what should I do, I don't need to say, right?"
Li Hanyou hesitantly said: "Zhang Jinxiong is a disciple of Kongtong head, I'm afraid he can't be killed."
The woman thought for a while, and said: "He will keep it for now. Kongtong does not dare to be embarrassed with this seat now. She just needs to monitor closely and don't let him spread the news. Your identity, now It’s already very important and must not be disclosed to others."
Li Hanyou gritted his teeth and said: "Master, don't worry, this matter is related to the honor and disgrace of the disciple's life, and the disciple must not allow anyone to sabotage my efforts."
The woman said lightly: "Okay, you go, Lu Jingzhong is also here, let me see this Master Young Fu."
Leaving Qixia Nunnery, Li Hanyou looked at Lu Jingzhong who was walking into the Nunnery along with the smell of Ziyan. She bit her silver teeth and turned and ran towards the capital. There was only one thought in her mind, and she must not let that person ruin her. With hard work and haziness, she seemed to be returning to her childhood. She was obviously naturally beautiful and intelligent, but she did not dare to show it, because she often heard her father-in-law say "a woman without talent is virtue", or Xia Quan would do it for herself Cover up, I'm afraid I didn't have the opportunity to read those years, because I was a woman, and the teacher at the private school didn't teach me anything about history. I just taught myself to read the books and read the collection at will. This is because I am smart. To please him, but it seemed that she yearned for the outside world even more. When she read the verses of the scenic spots, she wanted to see the beautiful scenery different from this deserted village, and read the verses describing the glory and prosperity. She wanted to taste that. The more she read, the more she resented her situation, but she knew that it was impossible for a weak woman to leave this kind of place, and she could only become a slave and prostitute. Therefore, she married Xia Quan full of grievances, the generous and obedient young man who did not touch her heart.
Suddenly, her opportunity came. The women with swords were full of glamour. They have different lives, so she tried to get close to them. Although she didn't know what the result would be, she was unwilling to give up the only chance. , Soon, the women noticed themselves and exclaimed: "How can you leave them alone in the mountains with such a good talent and beauty." Then they had to take them away forcibly, but the parents-in-law and mother-in-law were naturally unwilling. Those women were not merciless. After leaving her money, she took her away. On the way, she heard them whispering that, in addition to the troubles, she understood the meaning of these people, but did not have the slightest sympathy. Anyone who hinders her happiness should die. Then came the dreamlike life. She became the closed disciple of Fengyi's sect master and the princess of the prince Jingjiang. She took all the time to enrich herself. She would never allow her to lose such a life again. Finally, she transformed into a beautiful phoenix. This is the reward she deserves, and no one is allowed to destroy it.
Without going to the main entrance, she performed light work and entered the inner room of the prince's mansion. Crown Princess Cui was chanting and praying in the temple, and the maid Xiuchun was indeed waiting outside the temple. Li Hanyou looked at no one, stepped forward and lightly tapped the Xiuchun acupuncture path to take her to a remote place in the garden, unlocked her acupuncture path, and asked coldly: "Have Xia Jinyi told you about this palace? Thing?"
Xiu Chun's face was bloodless, and he said: "The maidservant doesn't understand what the princess means?"
Li Han asked coldly: "Have you mentioned me to you?"
Xiu Chun shook his head, a look of doubt flashed in his eyes, Li Hanyou felt a little calm in his heart, touched the hilt and said: "Xia Jinyi is dead, since you are his friend, you should die in love."
Xiu Chun's eyes flashed with panic, and she repeatedly knocked on her head: "Princess please be merciful~IndoMTL.com~Princess be merciful."
Li Han said coldly: "Why, you don't want to die for him, it seems that she is also a watery woman."
Xiu Chun cried and said: "The princess is forgiving. The servant girl is pregnant and she dare not seek death. If the princess wants the servant girl to die, she also asks the princess to let the servant girl give birth to a child and die. Jin Yi only has this bit of blood and blood. The family has been handed down for several generations, begging the princess to let Xiuchun go live for a few days. If Xiuchun is lucky enough to give birth to a boy, he can look at Jiuquan if he is dead."
Li Hanyou shook his hand, remembering that when Xia's mother was married to Xia Quan, she said gently and honestly: "My child, the Xia family has been passed on for several generations, and now it's up to you to open up the branches and leaves." His heart softened. I want to give up, but I think about it again, how easy is it to have today’s glory? In order to learn etiquette, I practice day and night until I don’t change my manners at any time, learn martial arts, study classics and history, and become what I am today. Princess Jingjiang, although this woman doesn't know anything, but today she has shown signs of interrogation like this. Thinking of this, she is cruel and pointed to Xiuchun's dead spot. Xiuchun was crying, unable to prevent her, and died silently like this, still clearly visible on her face.
Li Hanyou stepped forward and picked up Xiuchun. She had known the woman’s place for a long time. This was what she knew from the record of monitoring the princess. Li Hanyou put Xiuchun back into her bedroom, disguising herself as hanging herself. She didn't dare to look at this woman's ashen face again, she turned and left. There is also Zhang Jinxiong, Li Hanyou thought in his heart that he might also know my identity, and he must not let him reveal it to others. You can't kill him now, but you can't let him communicate with others. By the way, Xia Jinyi is suspected of being seduced. The prince, Zhang Jinxiong was also suspected as a senior, and ordered him to stay in the house and not allowed to go out. While thinking about it, Li Hanyou showed a proud look.
