The magnificent White Horse Temple is now under the control of Huaiyi. Feng Xiaobao never dreamed that the Queen would put him in such high regard, which made him very proud.

Walking into the White Horse Temple, on the north-south central axis, there are the Heavenly King Hall, the Great Buddha Hall, the Mahavira Hall, the Jieyin Hall, and the Pilu Pavilion. The garden is lined with ancient trees and the colorful fallen flowers in all seasons add to the pure atmosphere of the Pure Land of Buddhism.

Feng Xiaobao, who had shaved his head, oh no, it was Huaiyi, and took charge of the White Horse Temple. He knew that the position of presiding was empty, and the queen actually asked him to supervise the movements of the court ministers. He arranged for Wang Quan to lay wires widely and asked Wu Zetian to cast them.

The bronze guard is placed at the north gate to receive secret reports, supervise, and report the rebellious behavior of the ministers.

For a time, everyone in the court was in danger. The voices behind Huaiyi's back were very fierce, but he turned a deaf ear to them. As long as the Queen of Heaven supported him, he was ready to risk his life. No, even Qiu Shenzhen, who was famous in Kyoto, also admired him.

treat.

Just after returning to Luoyang from Shan Yu Dao, the first thing Qiu Shen asked him to do was to rush to the White Horse Temple. The two sat down in the reception hall, Huaiyi holding a rosary, with the calm demeanor of an enlightened monk, which made Qiu

God blame also has to admire.

The news of Cheng Wuting's death had been reported to Luoyang by Shan Yudao a few days ago. At this time, when Qiu Shencui talked about it again, he paced back and forth, touched his bare forehead, looked up at the statues of the Three Western Saints in the hall, and remained silent for a long time.

Qiu Shenbu said: "Although the emperor hated Cheng Wuting and persuaded him to return to power, he also knew his loyalty, so he always used him in high terms and could not bear to be severely punished. I went to Shanyu Road this time, originally hoping to let Li Chang put Cheng Wuting aside gradually, but instead

Unexpectedly, by some strange combination of circumstances, he died in the hands of Qin Bashan! This makes it difficult for me to reply to the Queen of Heaven."

Huaiyi nodded and said, "I'm also worried that the Queen of Heaven will blame this matter." Qiu Shencui said, "Well, I just came here to ask for advice, brother, if I can think of a complete solution."

Seeing Qiu Shenzui praising him in this way, Huaiyi felt very touched and said: "It's not that there is no way, it's just whether you are willing to use it." Qiu Shenzui said anxiously: "What method? When you are desperate, you have to try any method.

Huaiyi said with a smile: "In fact, there is no danger. As long as General Qiu is willing to start with the copper in the court, the Queen of Heaven will naturally not regret the news of Cheng Wuting's death."

Qiu Shenzu suddenly understood and said: "What a good idea. I have long heard that Cheng Wuting has an evil plot. He is very close to Pei Yan and is probably involved in Xu Jingye's incident last year. I will find someone to report Cheng Wuting." Huaiyi

Twist the rosary beads in your hands and smile without saying a word.

Wang Quan led Wang Yangzong, Wanyan Huaren, and Ye Qilang to the Jieyin Hall. They stepped onto the double-layered hall foundation. There are three Buddha statues in the hall. The one in the middle is Amitabha, with his hand in the shape of a Jieyin. The one on the left holding a pure vase is Guanyin Bodhisattva.

; The one on the right holding a jewel is Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva.

Under the three Buddha statues, there are two people standing, Huaiyi, the host of Baima Temple, and Zuo Jinwuqiu Shencui.

Qiu Shenzui had already regained his composure, and with an indifferent expression, he said: "The heroes are all well." Everyone raised their hands to say hello. Qiu Shenzui said: "Lingnan party, thank you for your hard work. The Queen of Heaven has found the missing person."

The map, Long Yan Dayue. Even though Chen Zi’ang is not from my side, it is better to have him present the map than nothing.”

Wang Quan said: "The two adults have managed well, and it is also the blessing of the Queen." Qiu Shenzui nodded and said: "I just came from Shanyu Dao and brought back another good news: Qin Bashan is not convinced.

The imperial court has been defeated by the army and its elite tribesmen. This is also the ability of the Queen of Heaven, General Li Chang and the border officers and soldiers."

Wang Quan nodded repeatedly and coughed several times. After the greetings, of course he got to the main topic. While thinking about it, he said: "I have something important to report to the presiding officer. General Qiu is also here. That would be the best." He said.

As he started talking, he paused.

Wang Yangzong interrupted: "To report to General Qiu and Master Huaiyi, there is nothing major happening in Luoyang. I want to go back to Guazhou Iron Foot Gate to have a look. I haven't been back for two years and I am really worried about my family." Qiu Shen was stunned and said:

“Isn’t the bustling Luoyang better than the frozen grassland frontier in the northwest?”

Wang Yangzong noticed that Qiu Shenzui seemed displeased and shook his head and said, "That's not what I meant..." Wanyan Huaren continued, "My lords, I also want to leave Luoyang for a while and travel around for a while." Qiu Shenzui said.

Seeing that they meant the same thing, he responded vaguely: "Huh?"

Ye Qilang said: "Yes, I also intend to leave Luoyang temporarily." Qiu Shenzui felt a little uneasy and glanced at Huaiyi.

Huaiyi held the rosary in his hand, stared at Wang Quan, and said, "You must be hiding something. Why did you leave Luoyang?"

Wang Quan hesitated for a long time, and then said: "We...we all received a post inviting us to participate in a martial arts competition on Longxi Road." Qiu Shenzui said "Oh" again, and Wang Yangzong took out the red one from his arms.

invitation.

Qiu Shencui opened it and saw that it read: "We are waiting for the great hero Wang Yangzong to participate in the Guazhou Yumenguan martial arts competition. The winner will be given a big prize. Time: November 23rd." There was no signature. He read the post and handed it to Huaiyi.

.

Wang Quan said: "The four of us received this post in our respective rooms last night." Huaiyi asked: "Who sent it?" Wang Quan looked blank and shook his head. Huaiyi asked again: "Except

Among the four of you, who else received this invitation?"

Wang Quan said: "According to our investigation, there are several prominent people in Luoyang who have also received invitations, such as Fatty Liu, a businessman in Luoyang. The people who have received invitations are all non-officials without exception." Qiu Shen nodded.

Head: "No wonder I didn't receive the invitation, haha."

He looked at Huaiyi and said, "This is a gathering of martial arts people. If you want to go, just go." Wang Quan and others thanked him and left, leaving to prepare their bags.
Chapter completed!
