Chapter Thirty-Eighth 2
The Jin Yiwei almost turned the entire Baoguo Temple upside down, but did not find any so-called fugitives. Then they left angrily, but they did not leave completely. Several Jin Yiwei walked carelessly towards the front and back gates of Baoguo Temple.
As soon as I sat down in the tea shop, I felt like I was stuck there.
At night, Zhao Yuan and Liu Zhiqing, dressed in night clothes, quietly lurked on the roof of the inn opposite Baoguo Temple, while Zhang Tianyin lurked at the back door of Baoguo Temple.
"Do you think they will move Xie Zhiyuan overnight?"
Liu Zhiqing looked at the closed temple door. At this moment, the entire Baoguo Temple could vaguely see lights, but there was silence in front of the door.
Even though she was wearing night clothes, Zhao Yuan, who was lying next to her, could easily smell the fragrance of her body. He glanced slightly, revealing only a pair of beautiful eyes. Liu Zhiqing was staring at Baoguo Temple intently at this moment, with such concentration.
The energy is like a strong woman working hard.
But if you think about it carefully, what is the difference between Liu Zhiqing and a strong woman? The Liu family is a large family business, and she is the leader. Any weakness must be covered up by strength.
Feeling Zhao Yuan's gaze, Liu Zhiqing turned her head, her eyes darkened, and said, "I want to ask you something."
Zhao Yuan suddenly came back to his senses and said: "I guess not."
"Won't?"
Liu Zhiqing stared blankly and said, "Then why do you want to stay here?"
Zhao Yuandao: "I said no, that's just an estimate. After all, they haven't been forced to a dead end yet. As for why they want to stay here, they are not afraid of ten thousand, but just afraid of what might happen. What if Wen Kong can't sit still anymore and suddenly wants to move?
What should people do?”
Liu Zhiqing suddenly felt speechless and said, "Then how can you force them to a dead end?"
Zhao Yuandao: "Of course I can't, Jin Yiwei can! By the way, is there anything unusual about Wen Kong today?"
Liu Zhiqing thought for a moment and said: "The tea he poured for me spilled a drop. I drank with him no less than ten times, and this has never happened before."
Zhao Yuan touched his chin and said: "It seems that he lost his composure for a moment. He must have seen something?"
"Did you see yourself?"
Zhao Yuan thought in his heart that although he still didn't know how to judge the level of a person's martial arts, Wen Kong felt like he was immovable today. The martial arts should not be weak. For a person who practices martial arts,
What matters is composure. He and Liu Zhiqing drank together more than ten times before and failed to pour the tea. Why did he fail today? When he poured the tea, he and others had just entered the courtyard. He had seen the other people, but he was the only one who drank with her.
It was the first time he met, which meant that he didn't expect that he would appear.
In other words, he may know himself.
How could he know himself when he came to Hangzhou for the first time? Maybe it was revealed to him by the monk whose hand he severed, which means that it is entirely possible that he knows who he is and his true identity.
It's really not good for people to know the identity of Jin Yiwei, but at this moment, Zhao Yuan feels that there is nothing better. Making Jin Yiwei make a fuss today is just to tell him that he has been targeted by Jin Yiwei.
When he is forced to jump over the wall, his true colors will be revealed.
A somewhat sinister smile appeared on Zhao Yuan's face involuntarily.
Liu Zhiqing was waiting for Zhao Yuan to speak. Unexpectedly, he suddenly became stunned, and then showed a somewhat obscene smile on his face. She felt a little disgusted in her heart and said, "What did you say he saw?"
Zhao Yuan came back to his senses and said with a smile: "I guess Wen Kong didn't practice enough. He must have seen that the eldest lady's beauty can fascinate all living beings when dressed up, so she lost her temper."
Liu Zhiqing was stunned, and suddenly heard the words he had spoken to the two flower-picking thieves last night. One of them was, "It is estimated that a smile will make the city charming, and the monk who is not good enough will want to return to secular life immediately." Suddenly a trace of anger and sullenness arose in his heart.
Said: "Shut up!"
If he couldn't make a big fuss at this moment, I would have kicked him off the roof.
"Yes, yes! I obey my orders!"
Zhao Yuan quickly said very sincerely.
The surrounding area suddenly became quiet. After a while, Zhao Yuan said again: "Miss, you look so beautiful when you smile."
Liu Zhiqing: "..."
…………
After keeping watch all night, there was no movement inside Baoguo Temple.
At dawn, Baoguo Temple naturally opened its doors and prepared to welcome pilgrims. However, the first people to enter were not pilgrims, but a group of royal guards. In addition, there were nearly 20 ordinary people.
Before the young novice who opened the door could react, the group of guards rushed in. He was instantly pushed aside like a small boat on the sea in a storm.
After entering the temple, Xiaoqi, the leader, stood ahead and said loudly: "You are all craftsmen who participated in the construction or maintenance of Baoguo Temple. There is nothing important in calling you here today. You just want to give me a good inspection of Baoguo Temple and its surroundings."
It turns out there is any difference. If any major clues are discovered and confirmed, I will reward you with a hundred taels of silver. Okay, let’s start!”
It turned out that Jinyiwei had searched the entire Baoguo Temple up and down yesterday but could not find any clues, so after summoning the craftsmen who originally built and maintained the Baoguo Temple, they came back again.
As a result, the temple that was supposed to be peaceful and solemn was suddenly turned upside down again by this group of royal guards. In front of the one hundred taels of silver reward, the craftsmen looked at it extremely carefully and did not miss any abnormalities. For example, when it was originally built, this place
There is no pillar, so why is there suddenly an extra pillar! It turns out that there is no rockery here, so how can a rockery appear? There is no incense burner here, how can there be an incense burner? There is no Buddha statue here, when did a Buddha statue appear, etc.
The most important point is that once the craftsmen point out that there is something strange, they naturally have to confirm that the incense burner can be moved, but the Buddha statue cannot be moved. What should I do if it cannot be moved? Then smash a hole.
Before coming out, take a look inside to see if there is anything strange.
Wen Kongna knew that Baoguo Temple would encounter these plague gods and hurriedly came out to stop them, but where could they stop them? In the name of handling the case, even the prefect of Hangzhou had to stay away, let alone the abbot.
And the most important thing is that he can't be caught now and can only worry on the sidelines.
However, there is a saying that there is no worst, only worse!
Not half an hour after Jinyiwei's front foot came in, another group of people came straight towards them. There were more people, hundreds of them. They were fans of Dongchang.
The last time I was in the capital, the Jinyiwei made a big fuss at Huayuan Temple, but Dongchang ignored it. Who knew that the Jinyiwei rescued the imprisoned Princess Chang'an? Afterwards, Emperor Jiajing ordered a thorough investigation of the person behind the scenes. Dongchang had no clues, so he simply
I came up with a method that they thought was stupid but still effective, that is, wherever you, the Jin Yiwei, investigate, I will follow.
So, when the Jin Yiwei came to trouble Baoguo Temple, Dongchang sent more people. In an instant, Baoguo Temple, which had not been attacked at first, gathered the two most powerful forces in the court.
If Baoguo Temple could barely hold on under the ravages of the Jin Yiwei, when Dongchang came, it was immediately worse and the temple was left to its own devices.
It is rare that there is any conflict between the two forces at this moment. You look through yours, and I look through mine, as if they have nothing to do with each other, and then they seem to be competing with each other to see who can find what they want first.
In fact, Jin Yiwei's purpose was a little clearer. After all, Zhao Yuan revealed the information to them, and Dongchang had no idea what he was doing. Anyway, Jin Yiwei was digging, so they followed suit.
As the abbot, Wen Kong could only watch helplessly as two groups of bandits that he could not provoke wreaked havoc in Baoguo Temple. The entire Baoguo Temple was like a typhoon passing through.
The key is that he has to ask the monks in the temple to prepare tea to prevent the hard-working Jinyiwei and Dongchang Fanzi from getting thirsty and tired.
Naturally, the Jinyiwei were not polite. Taking advantage of the tea break, the two Jinyiwei leaned against the pillars in front of the Main Hall and looked at their colleagues, Fanzi and the craftsmen who were searching carefully in front of them. One of them said strangely: "You said we are checking us.
Yeah, why is this Dongchang here to join in the fun?"
"Don't you know this? I heard that when the brothers from the capital were inspecting Huayuan Temple, the fans from Dongchang were watching the fun and ignored it. As a result, they actually rescued the imprisoned people from the secret room in the temple.
Princess! At that time, the emperor was furious and asked Jinyiwei and Dongchang to investigate the matter thoroughly. Dongchang didn’t know how to investigate, so he had no choice but to follow us Jinyiwei behind. "
"Let me just say, those guys in Dongchang have sharper noses than dogs, but then again, what exactly do you want to check? You are the person closest to me, don't you know that?"
"Shh, keep your voice down. For the sake of my brothers, I will tell you that your Excellency has received a tip saying that Baoguo Temple is very likely to be a group of monks from Huayuan Temple. There is also a secret room in this temple.
There are important people imprisoned. As long as they can be found and rescued, it will be a great achievement. Maybe they can be promoted to the general banner soon."
"No wonder your lord is so active, but what if the information is wrong?"
"The intelligence is wrong? Huh... Huh... Who said the intelligence is wrong? If we arrest a few of them, they will have to admit it! Your Excellency is here, hurry up and do something."
There are two main areas that Jinyiwei is best at. The first is catching winds and shadows, and the second is beating them into submission. And as a secret service agency of the imperial court, they are better at helping people write resumes. For example, so-and-so colluded with Japanese pirates, etc., and how much so-and-so has embezzled.
Silver and so on. Not to mention the audacity to kidnap the princess, which indeed offended Emperor Jiajing. He would not send someone to investigate the Jin Yiwei for a few monks.
