Chapter 168 Cake (3)
The afternoon sun fell on Mr. Du's gray hair, and his elegant and square face was already covered with wrinkles.
As time goes by, it is fair to everyone, whether it is the emperor who practices cultivation or the minister who has unrealistic ambitions, it is the same.
"At that time, I was full of ambition but not strong enough, but he was just the opposite. It was when I was young and energetic that I chose him." Mr. Du looked at Lin Fei in front of him, with a relieved smile on his face, as if he was waiting for this moment. A long moment passed, "I knew that Lin Shaoqing would come to find me one day, but I didn't expect it to come so soon."
One sentence obviously admitted that he had intervened in this case and was one of the murderers of this case.
The two people sitting across from each other, one is the Dali Temple Shaoqing who is an expert in solving crimes, and the other is the murderer who confesses frankly. The two sit across from each other and drink tea, but they are unexpectedly harmonious.
"Lin Shaoqing, do you know why I chose Sudan as my student?" Mr. Du asked Lin Fei.
Lin Fei looked back at Mr. Du and replied: "I have read his articles and poems. He seems arrogant but has a delicate mind. He is talented, intelligent and astute, and he also cares about the common people."
If such a person becomes an official and has good luck, he may not be able to become a famous minister.
Even Lin Fei felt a little pity, but it was really not a pity to talk about the case at this time. After a pause, he added: "The most important thing is that he seems to have discovered the evil intentions of the Goguryeo envoy."
In this way, the two naturally hit it off.
"I was still a little hesitant at first," Mr. Du said, "but he took the initiative to ask me for help because the people from the Moro Cult took the initiative to approach him."
As for why a sect targeted a arrogant student...
"They are targeting more than one student, as well as Prince Yu, a relative of the imperial family who is 'depressed' in Da Rong." Mr. Du said this, with a trace of ridicule on his lips, "Our Prince Yu doesn't want to be a He is a wealthy and idle man, but he has the heart to be a powerful minister."
There are many talented people in Dayong, so there is no need to think about King Yu's "ambition". The people of the Moro Cult saw through his mind, and with a little temptation, King Yu took the bait.
"If you can't succeed in Da Rong, then change to a small country and become a powerful minister of Goguryeo." Mr. Du said, "King Yu feels that he would rather be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix."
"Like King Yu, there is also Princess Chao'an. The Moro sect is secretly operating in Goguryeo, and the support of these two is indispensable." At this point, Mr. Du paused and said, "Fu Ma Although he is a coward, he is right about one thing."
"Princess Chao'an has indeed been replaced," Mr. Du said calmly, "The current Princess Chao'an in the Princess Mansion is a member of the Moro Cult."
As for the reason why Mr. Du is so sure, this is: "Dan Sheng is very smart, and he was quickly entrusted with important tasks by the Moro cult. He was a popular candidate for the top three at that time, and the Moro cult also thought that he had great talents, and In order to lure King Yu to make suggestions for the Moro Cult to seize the throne of Goguryeo, Princess Chaoan is the one who will contact him."
In this way, Prince Consort Fu's testimony can explain clearly why Mr. Sultan always appeared at the princess's house in the middle of the night to discuss the Moro religion.
"The land of Darong is rich in resources. The money brought by the two identities of King Yu and Princess An in Darong has supported the Moro Sect for many years." When Mr. Du said this, he couldn't help but sneered, "Isn't it just sucking my son? People’s blood for personal gain?”
"Although Dan Sheng was careful, he still aroused the suspicion of Princess Chao'an and King Yu. On the day of the accident, he asked someone to send a message to me, saying that he would meet me early the next morning and that he had something to hand over to me, but it didn't happen. I thought..." Mr. Du said this with a stern look on his face, his face full of pain, "I didn't realize it was just a suspicion, and before any evidence was found, the people from the Moro Cult killed him."
The Sultan was not only alive but also dead, and the state of his death was so horrific.
Mr. Du personally ran for this matter, wanting to seek justice for the life and death of the Sultan, but he did not expect that in the end it was the late emperor who personally came forward to suppress the matter because of the "immortal master".
"At that time, if the 'immortal master' had not died inexplicably, the people of the Moro Sect would have targeted the national treasury." Mr. Du said, "The late emperor has always been extremely generous to the 'immortal masters', and the people of the Moro Sect are very generous. He started out by talking about ghosts and gods who pretend to be gods and ghosts, so he is the best at this."
As for why we should target the treasury...
"An uprising requires money," Lin Fei said calmly. "If the Moro sect wants to overthrow the rule of the Goguryeo monarch, the two money bags of King Guangyu and Princess Chao'an are not enough. Is there any money bag in the world that can be bigger?" Where is Rong’s treasury that is more abundant?”
Therefore, they sucked the blood of Daerong people to help the Moro religion seize the power of Goguryeo. This sentence is not wrong at all.
Because the "immortal master" died suddenly, the late emperor lost interest, and the Moro sect had no time to find a second "immortal master", so they had to give up.
Until five years later, it made a comeback.
This time I repeated my old trick and offered an "elixir", but it just didn't work out...
"The Holy Emperor is different from the late Emperor," Mr. Du said, and couldn't help but laugh at himself, "I don't need to worry about my old bones anymore."
in this way……
Mr. Du picked up the tea cup in his hand and drank all the tea in one gulp. Then he took out an account book from his arms and placed it in front of Lin Fei: "This is what Dan Sheng lost his life to get." The account book shows the whereabouts of a large amount of money from King Yu and Princess An over the years. They transported the money to the Moro Cult through the Moro Cult believers scattered throughout Daerong to help the Moro Cult recruit troops in Goguryeo."
Lin Fei took the account book, flipped through it briefly, then put it away and looked at Mr. Du in front of him: "Don't worry, Mr. Lin Fei will handle this!"
"If I don't trust you, I won't hand over the account books to you." After Mr. Du said this, he smiled bitterly again, "The account books have been kept with me for five years, and now they are finally handed over to the person they should be handed over to." In my hand, it can be regarded as fulfilling Dan Sheng’s last wish.”
Lin Fei said "hmm" and looked at Mr. Du in front of him. Although he was a little moved, his expression remained calm. He said: "Sultan's last wish is to expose Prince Yu and Princess An of the same Dynasty. In the end, Mr. Du has to do it." All I have to do is hand the account books into the hands of a trustworthy person. But Mr. Du has not done what he wants to do. I wonder if Lin is right?"
"I heard that Miss Su was forced to marry by her clan because of the death of the Sultan. She died in childbirth two years ago. Su's father and Su's mother have lost two sons and one daughter. I heard that they are now also suffering from diseases and their time is running out." Lin Fei said, "Mr. Du is a man who values love and justice. Seeing that the Sudanese family has fallen into the current situation, will he remain indifferent?"
"I knew I couldn't hide it from you!" When faced with Lin Fei's question, Mr. Du admitted frankly, "I have to avenge Dansheng's revenge, even if I have to sacrifice my old bones."
King Yu and Princess Chaoan are just two chess pieces who think highly of themselves. The initiator of all this is the Goguryeo sect - the Moro Sect.
