Chapter 694 Gu Qing's Lifetime Sins
It is hard to say whether the queen will meet her. Di Renjie was not very sure that the queen would meet her. After waiting for more than an hour, the guard finally came to report, "Report to the Minister of Dali Temple, the queen said that she will talk about everything when His Majesty comes back, and no one will see you now."
"I understand, thank you." Di Renjie left as he said. Although he knew that such a result would be, he was still very disappointed.
When he returned to Dali Temple, the testimony of the servants in Tang Jian's family had been sorted out. There were seven servants who were eyeliners. The rest did not know what was going on. They also drew the portraits according to their respective statements. At first, Tang Jian's family was as usual. Everyone was stunned by the incense that night, and then they were taken to a strange place. Many things did not know about Tang Jian's family. But when all of them woke up, they saw their wife arguing with a strange man.
It seems that this man and his wife knew the old man, and everything that happened afterwards was that the man left with the eyeliner arranged by Tang Jian’s family.
Di Renjie looked at the portrait and asked the clerk who sent the tortoise shell, "Is it the tortoise shell this man gave?"
"It looks a bit like it, but I didn't care much at that time." The clerk guarding outside the door replied.
Tang Jian's wife also checked the portrait and added a few points to a very complete portrait formed. Di Renjie looked at this face, a very ordinary face, very familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere, but he couldn't remember where he had seen this person. It seemed like he had flashed through his memory and he had appeared a long time ago, and he must have paid attention to this face.
Di Renjie took a deep breath and said, "Hang out this portrait and arrest the whole city."
Dali Temple began the next move. Di Renjie looked at the second tortoise shell he got, and the face of three eyes. In legend, the three eyes represent the eyes of heaven, and all sins will be inseparable from the third sight. The rumors come from many ancient books, originating from the ancient Shu king Cancong. It is the result of the birth of ancient Shu culture. The condition for the formation of the third eye is the belief of "Chongmu" in ancient Shu.
Ancient Shu?
Di Renjie wrote down his guess with annoyance and came to the Gu family to talk about this matter with Gu Qing.
"Prince Ma? Erlang Shen? Wen Zhong?" Gu Qing was also surprised when he saw the face with three eyes.
"Teacher." Di Renjie continued: "There was a saying in ancient Shu that respects purpose, which symbolizes the eyes of heaven, and all sins are inseparable from the third sight."
"Sin?" Gu Qing put down his tortoise shell, "Did that guy really warn me? Is it still here to seek revenge."
Di Renjie remained silent, and the people killed by his teacher back then flowed into blood.
After taking the portrait, Gu Qing looked at the face on the portrait, "This face is so familiar."
"The teacher also finds it familiar?" Di Renjie was surprised.
"Yes." Gu Qing stared at the portrait, "It seems like he has seen it somewhere, but he can't remember it."
To the east of Chang'an, Luoyang is also a prosperous place. After Chang'an, this place is considered the most prosperous place in the Central Plains. There is no curfew or much restrictions here, so there are more businessmen in this country.
In an ancient temple in Luoyang, Tang Xuanzang spoke to the young monk in front of him, "Gu Qing slaughtered most of the Turks, and the entire grassland was stained with blood. The Tubo Potala Palace caused the sky thunder to kill hundreds of thousands of lives. I saw the corpse mountains and seas with my own eyes. The body could not be seen at a glance, and Goguryeo even killed bloodily. These are the murders committed by Gu Qing, and it is his life's sins. He will bear these sins in his life."
The little monk also said, "When a young monk in Chang'an, he had been in contact with Gu Qing for a while. He felt that he was a very casual person and had some inexplicable persistence. At that time, the little monk could not see the hostility in Gu Qing's heart. His Majesty hoped that Gu Qing would come to our temple to help Gu Qing resolve his sins. At that time, there was some entanglement with Ganye Temple. The little monk asked the master what Gu Qing's hostility was. The master said that Gu Qing's hostility had not been transformed in the temple, but was hidden in the deepest part of Gu Qing's heart."
"The little monk has always disagreed with the words of the master. However, after knowing the affairs of Japan and the affairs of Goguryeo, the little monk believed what his master said. Gu Qing's hostility has been there and has never changed. It has caused a fire to explode, causing most of the Japanese people to live in poverty and want to destroy the entire country of Japan. This hostility has not only not changed, but has become more and more serious."
Tang Xuanzang nodded, "Everyone has their own sins. Gu Qing's sins are the heaviest that the poor monks have seen. He has to bear the heaviest in his life. Once there is too much blood on the butcher's knife, the smell of blood will bring even worse people."
"The little monk knows that this sin will be fruitful one day." The little monk said with a smile, "Master traveling around the West must have seen many people, people who are even more evil than Gu Qing. The master must know something."
"How could I know?" Tang Xuanzang looked at the prosperity of Luoyang with a wry smile. "As Gu Qing's power grew stronger and stronger, the country would be destroyed or blood would flow into a river. The mercy of the Buddha, Gu Qing disdained me, what else could I say?"
"It's getting late, so the little monk will leave for the time being." The little monk bowed and said, "I'll discuss it tomorrow."
Tang Xuanzang nodded slightly.
Chang'an
Compared with Di Renjie, the sea trade affairs in Li Zhi were handled smoothly. Shangguan Yi, Chu Suiliang and Xu Jingzong made a decision to establish a sea trade department. The sea trade department was not in the court system but was controlled by the court. All officials were assigned by King Li Zhi of Jin, and the full power was handed over to His Highness the King of Jin, and the court supervised.
Li Zhi was very happy that he could finally do something, and his passion made him unable to sleep all night. He would always take out the regulations he had decided with Shangguan Yi and read them over and over again. Sometimes he wanted to pick up the pen to supplement, but he still put the pen down and nodded with satisfaction.
The Haimao government office was built next to the village. Gu Qing planned to build this village, and the area of the village needs to be expanded again. Now the population of the village is increasing and cannot be too crowded.
Yang Sheng ate the fruit and said, "You might as well build a city."
"A city bigger than Chang'an?" Gu Qing said with drawings: "It's not so troublesome. I don't look like building a city wall. I still have to use academies as the core. Chang'an is still the commercial center of the Tang Dynasty."
Yang Sheng looked at the scene on Gu Qing's drawings. This city, which is three times larger than the current village, has no wall connecting the Bashui tributaries, which echoes Chang'an.
"Large-scale construction is not possible." Gu Qing said to himself, "We need to do it step by step, start with the expansion of the academy."
