There is a Longfu Temple in the east of Yuzhou City. It was built with money from King Yinquan of Pingxi. It is popular with incense. It is said that the gods enshrined in the temple often appear holy and respond to requests. Therefore, there is an endless stream of pilgrims every day. There are those who ask for fortune-telling and those who make wishes.

, there are also people who fulfill their vows. Some people need to have faith and spiritual sustenance, while some people want to spend money to buy peace of mind because their sins are too serious. For example, Yin Quan, who funded the construction of the temple, is the latter type.

As for whether you believe in the existence of gods or not, that's all your own business. Some people believe it fervently, some don't believe it, and some people choose to respect ghosts and gods and stay away from them. For Yang Jingzhong, the internal manager who came to Longfu Temple in the middle of the night,

He obviously believes more in power.

If ghosts, gods and retribution exist, then Yang Jingzhong will definitely go to the eighteenth level of hell after his death, because he has done too many bad things and killed too many people. But Yang Jingzhong is not stupid enough to think of going out like some people.

He thought he could buy gods and Buddhas with some money, but Yang Jingzhong just didn't want the afterlife.

At the top of the moon, in the middle of the night, the main gate of Longfu Temple is closed, and the doors of the main hall and side halls are also closed. It is quiet and there is no sound. There is a Buddhist scripture building in the backyard of Longfu Temple, which is not open to pilgrims.

Even during the day, only a few monks in the temple would come to read the scriptures, and it was even deserted at night.

The moonlight was dim, and there were two people standing downstairs where the scriptures were stored. One was the white-haired and white-browed old eunuch Yang Jingzhong, and the other was Zi Hua, the personal maid of Miss Hengxiangyuan Zhimeng in the Pingxi Palace. She was the Dongwei lurking in the Pingxi Palace.

Careful work.

Yang Jingzhong stretched out his snow-white slender fingers, stroked his long white eyebrows, and asked in a faint voice, "My child, it has been more than a year since you came to Pingxi Palace, right? How much information have you collected about the Palace and Blood Shadow?"

Got it?" Zi Hua didn't say anything, but took out a scroll from his arms and handed it to Yang Jingzhong.

Yang Jingzhong took the scroll, glanced at it in the moonlight, threw the scroll on Zi Hua's face, smiled coldly, and asked in a long tone: "Good boy, is this what you have achieved in more than a year in Prince Pingxi's Mansion?

"

Zi Hua immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Zi Hua is incompetent, please punish him!" Yang Jingzhong was about to speak, but there was a sudden snap, and two crossbow arrows with cold light shot out from Zi Hua's back and went straight to Yang Jingzhong's face.

When he left the door, Yang Jingzhong remained calm in the face of danger and leaned back hastily. Two crossbow arrows flew past Yang Jingzhong's forehead.

At the same time that the two crossbow arrows were empty, Zi Hua, who was kneeling on the ground, had a dagger in his hand and stabbed Yang Jingzhong straight in the chest.

…

In the Mu Liang Pavilion of Pingxi Palace, Cheng Jijia knelt in front of the couch. He spoke in a low and powerful voice, seeming very angry, "My lord, you rashly asked Zi Hua to assassinate Yang Jingzhong. Isn't it too risky? If it fails...

"

Yin Quan lay on the couch, his voice was calm, without any waves, "Dongwei is under his control, Zi Hua is his Dongwei people, his own people want to kill him, what does it have to do with us? Since Yang

If Jingzhong doesn't want to be used by me, then just kill him. He is just a dead eunuch, and his life and death will not affect the overall situation."

Cheng Jijia kept kowtowing and felt very sad.

Said: "Your Majesty! It is precisely because this eunuch held Yin Guang hostage in the palace that we have a chance! At dinner, you asked him if Yin Guang was satisfied with those female sumo wrestlers. He replied that the emperor does carpentry work every day.

, fishing and training the female sumo wrestlers, it is a pleasure, and I also invite all the officials and wives to watch the female sumo wrestling together, isn’t this what you want, my lord?”

Yin Quan was silent. Cheng Jijia added: "It is precisely because this eunuch refused to delegate power that Yin Guang was unable to take power. Yin Guang was unable to take power and the situation was favorable to us. Once the old eunuch died, no one in the palace could restrain Yin.

Guang, if Yin Guang has been hiding his power and biding his time, what will he do after he takes power? He will definitely cut down the vassal. Your Majesty cannot bear the anger of the moment, I'm afraid our big event will come to nothing!"

Yin Quan lay on the couch and said in an annoyed voice: "It's too late, Zi Hua must have already taken action over there! But don't be afraid, even if Yang Jingzhong is killed, Dong Wei still has Ye Zhaoli, who has always wanted to take Yang Jingzhong.

Instead, the worst we can do is support Ye Zhaoli!"

Cheng Jijia shook his head and sighed, "Your Majesty, Ye Zhaoli is willing to come to seek refuge with you because Yang Jingzhong is suppressing him. He just wants to seek greater power. If Yang Jingzhong dies, Ye Zhaoli will have a great chance to climb up."

, if he can climb to Yang Jingzhong's position, below one person and above tens of thousands of people, then is it necessary for him to choose the prince? This is the real reason why Yang Jingzhong refused to choose the prince!"

Yin Quan had a gloomy face and said after a while: "I hope Zi Hua doesn't succeed!"

Cheng Jijia, who was kneeling on the ground, smiled bitterly, "If Zi Hua fails and Yang Jingzhong is still alive, then Ye Zhaoli may be doomed! Your Majesty, no matter how you calculate it, we are all at a loss! You must know before you do such a thing next time

Talk to us and we can come up with a suitable countermeasure."

Yin Quan didn't say anything anymore and just nodded silently. Cheng Jijia kowtowed to Yin Quan again, stood up and exited the Muriang Pavilion. Cheng Jijia raised his head and looked at the cold moonlight, suddenly feeling discouraged. This man was born in the royal palace and grew up in the palace.

The prince in the hands of a woman really succeeds more than fails.

The moonlight was bright and cold, falling on the back garden of Pingxi Prince's Mansion, like a layer of silver gauze. On the lawn next to the strange stone forest of Tongxin Lake in the back garden, Zi Hua's mouth was bleeding, and he knelt on the lawn, staring with a pair of beautiful big eyes.

He looked at Yang Jingzhong in front of him in horror.

Yang Jingzhong, who was looking at Zi Hua, suddenly laughed, his smile was very sad, "Zi Hua, you are eighteen years old this year. Your adoptive father originally wanted to betroth you to someone else, but it was you who asked to come to the palace as a bride!

"

Yang Jingzhong turned around, with a hint of intolerance on his face, and said slowly: "My child, tell yourself, how has your adoptive father treated you over the years? Are you going to betray your adoptive father just because of Ye Zhaoli, who can make women happy? You

Have you forgotten your adoptive father’s kindness in raising you over the years? My son, you drew your sword against your adoptive father, and your adoptive father’s heart aches!”

Zi Hua wanted to say something, but she couldn't. Her body slowly collapsed. Yang Jingzhong bent down and touched Zi Hua's eyelids with his hands, closed her eyes for her, lowered his head and whispered softly: "My child

Son, you are not the only one lurking in this palace! Originally, my adoptive father wanted to wait for you to admit your mistake. If you admit your mistake, the most he can do is to expel you from Dongwei. But you made one mistake.

If you make a mistake, there is nothing your adoptive father can do!"

Yang Jingzhong turned around, touched the ground with his feet, climbed up the strange rocks, and jumped away. As fast as a bird, he crossed the high wall of the backyard of the palace and disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye.

After Yang Jingzhong left for about a cup of tea, a huge boulder slowly rotated and moved away in the strange stone forest. The door of the hidden underground palace under the strange stone forest opened, and a man walked out from the door, wearing a worn Taoist robe and carrying a bag on his back.

A black knife with a haggard face, it was Zhu Tianba who was seriously injured by Tang Jiusheng at the auction.

Zhu Tianba raised his head and looked at the moon in the sky, stretched out, and took a greedy breath of fresh air. Suddenly someone on the strange rock chuckled: "Brother Zhu, it's been a month, and you finally woke up."

Zhu Tianba looked back and saw that it was Monk Da'ai. Monk Da'ai, Zhu Tianba and Huagu Taoist were all old acquaintances. Zhu Tianba was very surprised and asked with a smile: "Eh? You are brother Da'ai."

?Aren’t you at the Poison Dragon Temple in Thousand Demon Mountains? When did you come to the palace?”

Da Ai touched his bald head and grinned bitterly, "Isn't this to avenge Brother Hua Gu Dao and your Brother Zhu? Brother Chunyuan invited me to help with the boxing, but I was killed in the Zhu Family Courtyard.

Tang Jiusheng was injured and his Iron Tou Gong was also broken. He has been hiding here for a month to recover from his injuries and was tricked by a fledgling little brat. It’s really frustrating!"

Zhu Tianba cursed angrily: "That boy named Tang is so insidious! Where is Brother Huagu? How's his arm?"

Dao said: "Don't mention it, Taoist brother Hua Gu's arm has been connected by Taoist brother Chunyuan using a secret method. When Taoist brothers Hua Gu and Chunyuan and I went to Huzhou to seek revenge on Tang Jiu Sheng, Taoist brother Chun Yuan

I was injured by that bitch Yue Lingbi, and I'm still in bed now. This time I went to Huzhou and it was really a loss of troops, even the prince got stabbed in the butt by that kid Tang Jiusheng!"

Zhu Tianba was startled. He looked around and saw that no one was there, then asked in a low voice: "What's going on? So Tang Jiu Sheng is a man of both genders?"

He grinned angrily, "Ahem, Brother Zhu, it's not like you think, he was stabbed with a knife!"

Zhu Tianba finally felt relieved and said, "Oh, that's it, it scared me! Is the prince okay now?"

Da Ang said: "Forget it, the prince has been recovering from his injuries. Tonight, the prince sent people to kill Yang Jingzhong, but the Zi Hua who went to kill Yang Jingzhong was killed by Yang Jingzhong, and the body was still thrown on the lawn without being collected.

!Yang Jingzhong placed Zi Hua’s body in the back garden, clearly to demonstrate to our prince, and I don’t know if our prince can bear this tone!”

Zhu Tianba gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "Then I will go see the prince, and I will hunt down Yang Jingzhong. This old boy is not a good guy! My friend Kuang Ying died in his hands! Wait for him in the future.
