Chapter 1520 Rong Leng Remained Silent “???”
Liu Wei's purpose of coming today was clear from the beginning. To accompany the Moon Wing Dog and the Mermaid Pearl, she wanted to get the answers to both of these things today.
The reason why I use the life experience of the Imperial Master as the preface is because I want to test the hypothesis.
This Imperial Preceptor is not a simple person. Whether it is Liu Xiniang or the Ghost Army, it is obviously something that is closely related to him, but he can talk about it as if it is someone else's matter. His words and expressions are not revealing, which makes Liu Wei can't help but think of The former Zhong Ziyu.
When so many people died in the Guyong Mansion, Zhong Ziyu was like a blooming white lotus, forcing himself to stay out of the situation and pretending to be innocent and upright, but it looked like he really deserved a beating.
I dare not say how similar the behavior patterns of this Imperial Master and Zhong Ziyu are. At least, in criminal psychology, people like them belong to the same type of people.
My grandfather actually didn’t know much about the Imperial Master’s life experience.
My grandfather has been in office for too long, and the interpersonal relationships in the capital have long since been severed. Although he and the eminent monk who adopted him as a national advisor were once considered close friends, they are still far apart and know very little about each other's personal affairs.
Liu Wei just lied. She said that what she knew was told to her by her grandfather, but this was not the case.
This news was told to her by Mrs. Xiang.
The shark bead project was launched five years ago. Five years ago, the queen was trapped by mercury poisoning and was in danger. The two things were the same thing with the same purpose.
At first, everyone focused their attention on Concubine Xin, thinking that Concubine Xin colluded with the Imperial Master to murder the queen first, and then gave birth to the prince with the help of the shark bead. The mother is more valuable than the son. Later, it was discovered that Concubine Xin had nothing to do with this matter. It was Wang Bin who colluded with the imperial master.
It doesn't count as collusion. The status of Wang Bin and the National Preceptor are not equal. When the two parties communicate and contact, the Imperial Preceptor is obviously in the dominant position, while Wang Bin is more like a chess piece in his hand.
From this point of view, whether it is the shark beads or the mercury poison, the masterminds behind these two things are all national masters.
The Prime Minister's wife, Yunshi, is ruthless and unscrupulous, but she is loyal to the queen.
Therefore, when the Queen and the Yun family were dissatisfied with Concubine Xin and the Emperor, the Yun family had actually sent people to conduct an in-depth investigation of the Imperial Advisor. Regarding the life experience of the national master, Liu Wei knew it a few days ago, but she didn't care at first. She was born as an orphan, without a father or mother, and was adopted by a Buddhist monk at a young age. It seemed like a very normal and miserable experience, except that The fact that he was taken away by an eminent monk in Mingyue Town made Liu Wei worried.
Eyes, she really didn't think much about anything else.
Thirty years ago, Mingyue Town was still a mass grave. According to the news that Mrs. Xiang got back, the eminent monk at that time responded to the invitation of the squires from nearby villages and towns and came to this mass grave to liberate the souls of those who died in vain.
But when he was undergoing salvation, he unexpectedly discovered something strange in one of the rolls of straw mats.
After opening the straw mat, he found that it was the corpse of a beautiful woman. The woman had died, but her stomach was moving abnormally.
At that time, there were no villagers nearby, only a few monks were setting up a formation to chant sutras. Buddhists believe that God has the virtue of good life. Without any hesitation, the few monks went to find Wenpo.
This is how the Imperial Master was born. Because of his strange birth, the villagers did not dare to accept this child who crawled out of the belly of the dead. He was taken away by the Buddhist disciples as a matter of course, but seventeen years later, he rebelled against Buddhism, grew his long hair, and became a lay disciple of the Taoist sect. It is not known how he met the emperor later. In short, he suddenly
One day, the Xianyan Kingdom had the official position of national preceptor.
Then, the National Elephant Prison rose from the ground.
The Imperial Master had a troubled past. Why he left Buddhism and went to Taoism in the first place, and how he finally gained the emperor's trust and became the leader of the entire Imperial Palace, has always been a secret.
When Mrs. Xiang said this to Liu Wei, the older lady was very angry: "If I find out about his painful feet, I will make his life worse than death!"
Although Liu Wei also felt that the two past experiences of the Imperial Master leaving the Taoist sect and meeting the Emperor were very suspicious, she always felt that there was something else that she had ignored.
Later, she finally thought of it.
Mingyue Town.
She was familiar with Mingyue Town, where she stayed for many days when she came to Beijing.
Once you have a goal, it becomes much easier to check the details.
Thirty years is not a long time. Many people who witnessed it are still alive now.
Before coming to the National Elephant Prison this morning, Liu Wei received a letter from the Prime Minister's wife.
What she said in the letter is what she just said.
"The rumors of being haunted in Mingyue Town were spread by someone, right?" Liu Wei looked at the Imperial Master, the smile in his eyes still bright.
The Imperial Master said nothing and stared at her with a calm expression.
Didn't Mingyue Town start to be haunted thirty years ago? Just imagine, before the town was established, the place was full of ghosts. Are the villagers so stupid that they had to build a town here? Wouldn't they move to another place?
Among the contents that Mrs. Xiang checked, it was written that the legend of the Ghost Army in Mingyue Town only appeared ten years ago.
The army of ghosts and gods are just, the newlyweds who were sold to the butcher as a wife by the gambler's father are pitiful, and the corpses are evil.
The three elements are superimposed together, and this is actually a story. The miserable newlywed bride stumbled into a mass grave, encountered an evil ghoul, and swallowed her alive. However, the ghoul not only ate her, but also ate the family of butchers who were chasing the newlywed bride, so let’s change the perspective. It seems that the ghoul has avenged the bride, but the bride killed by the ghoul is actually innocent.
.
Therefore, another group of imperial troops came to punish the corpse ghosts and redress the grievances of the bride. After her death, the ghost army guarded the place.
The first time she heard it, Liu Wei thought the story was so beautiful.
Evil people have their own trials and tribulations, and good people finally eliminate bad people. As a tragic figure, the innocent newlywed bride is only a glimpse, but if you think about it carefully, everything the other people do is around her and for her. Serve.
Why did the imperial army deal with corpses? People are people, ghosts are ghosts. It is more in line with the definition of ghosts and monsters to say that a Taoist priest punished the corpse ghosts, but it happened that the imperial army appeared here.
Liu Wei looked at the Imperial Master and said a word of praise to him out of the blue: "Your Excellency is quite cute."
The upset Imperial Master said: "???"
Rong Leng remained silent all the time: "???" Liu Wei felt Rong Leng's cold gaze, coughed softly, and said: "To be able to make up such a childlike little ghost story, I think it is also living in the hearts of adults. As an innocent child, you compare your father to a ghoul, your grandfather to a gambler, your stepfather's family to butchers,
In the end, the mayor who calmed down the matter and showed kindness to your mother was compared to the imperial army. You completed the positioning of all the characters in your heart, and now you are trying to turn the story characters you imagined into reality. ,Is it right? "
Liu Wei thought that he knew why the imperial master had betrayed Buddhism, because from the time he could remember, he had been a person with hatred in his heart. He knew that there was no place for him in Buddhism. Even in the end, he didn't even join the Taoist sect, but just became a lay disciple, because he was afraid that his attachment to power and obsession with old enemies would bring disgrace to the purity of the Taoist sect.
