Chapter 920: Play the long game and catch big fish
Shangjing, Imperial Palace, Yangxin Hall
"Husband, you are back."
"Did General Dou give you any trouble?"
“Did the bald donkey from Vajra Temple attack your husband?”
"There are also those experts from Daxia. According to the reports from the Six Gates, they have recently increased their penetration into Fengzhou."
"I have ordered the six doors to retaliate in equal measure!"
Her Majesty the Queen has already known the identity of the Black Crow through the "Telepathy", and also knows that what the Black Crow brought is the "Sumi Relic", which can open the door to space.
The distance between Fengzhou and Shangjing became only a moment. By paying the price of Tianlu, Chu Qianqiu allowed himself to arrive at the palace and meet Her Majesty the Queen, whom he had not seen for many days.
As the saying goes, one day without seeing you is like three autumns.
It had been several months since her husband had left Beijing, and she finally saw her sweetheart again. Her Majesty the Queen couldn't help showing a look of surprise on her face, and she strode forward to check on her husband.
Well, apart from becoming more handsome, my husband has not changed at all.
Although the two of them can communicate at any time through [Ear-Digging Arhat] and [Heart-to-Heart Communication], how can it compare to meeting them in person.
"King Kong Temple is just a chicken and a dog. How can it hurt my husband at all?"
Chu Qianqiu said with a smile.
"My husband misses my wife."
"Come, let me hug you."
"loquacious."
"Obviously in Fengzhou, let's go wild."
"Does your husband know how many people are there in the Yushitai to impeach your husband for his arbitrariness?"
Her Majesty the Queen suddenly said with a straight face, pretending to be angry.
"Yes, yes, it's all my husband's fault."
"This time my husband comes back to completely deal with King Jing."
Chu Qianqiu hugged Her Majesty the Queen into his arms and said slightly ashamed.
"Huh, that's pretty much it."
"Husband, you still take important court affairs to your heart."
Her Majesty the Queen's attitude has become much gentler. Although her husband is ridiculous, he has always been very efficient in doing things. After enjoying a few days in Fengzhou, he immediately ran back to find a way to solve King Jing's problem.
"This is natural. When has the husband ever lied to his wife?"
"Glib tongue."
Her Majesty the Queen looked very happy, but she still criticized a few words with a smile, and then changed the subject.
"Uncle Wang's body is well preserved and I have already had it prepared."
"Husband, you can check at any time."
"Eunuch Zhou."
"The slave is here."
"Lead the way."
"yes!"
Going to Beijing, Prince Jing's Mansion
This is the first time Chu Qianqiu has come to King Jing's mansion. This mansion seems very small. Not to mention compared with the prime minister's mansion and the eldest princess's mansion, even the Chu family compound where Chu Qianqiu lived casually was much smaller.
.
King Jing has always had a reputation for being honest among the people, and going to Beijing was not the scope of King Jing's activities. Therefore, in order to show his trust in the court, he did not arrange a large number of manpower in Shangjing except for a small number of personal guards and servants.
King Jing came to Beijing alone to work, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was ready to run away at any time.
But no one expected that the way he escaped would be to die.
"Husband, after King Jing's death, I have taken down all his personal guards and interrogated them severely."
"But there is currently no valid intelligence."
"What does Zen Master Zuyuan say?"
Chu Qianqiu asked.
"He said that there was nothing wrong with King Jing's death. It was an ordinary death from birth, old age, illness and death."
"Now that Wanshou Temple has announced the news, the rumors have stopped."
"But I asked him privately, but he didn't want to answer."
"Now this rumor has a new variant."
"What variant?"
"Six Doors discovered that there is a new rumor circulating in Yuzhou and other places."
"Uncle Wang, like General Long, were both killed by the imperial court."
"This time Wanshou Temple is unwilling to answer because it is related to General Long."
Her Majesty the Queen frowned and said.
Zen Master Zuyuan leads the Buddhist sect, and what he says is much more effective than the court's refutation of rumors. However, Zen Master Zuyuan also has a destiny, which is the death of General Long.
Now the imperial court and the Shenwei Army have a tacit understanding, unite and look forward, and put aside the related hatred.
King Jing's men, on the other hand, used bundled sales to attract King Jing's attention to General Long and stir up rumors.
"Both King Jing and General Long were killed by the imperial court."
"Yesterday it was General Long, today it is King Jing, who else will be there tomorrow?"
"This court must be rebelling against its mother."
Although storytellers are too timid to spread such rumors.
But King Jing's subordinates also had many smart people, and they bribed storytellers to tell them about King Jing's heroic deeds.
The content is probably about how such a good person died.
If someone asks, how did King Jing die?
The storyteller smiled mysteriously and told the story without ending, or in a sinister tone he said the standard answer of the imperial court: he died of illness.
If you are thoughtful, you can naturally hear the underlying meaning.
With the spread of these rumors, Yuzhou, Jiangzhou, and Haizhou all showed varying degrees of undercurrents.
In just a few days, more than 3,000 rumor mongers were arrested in Liumen. The vast majority of them were not Jingwang elements, but just the people who spread the rumors.
"King Jing is really good at it."
"This time we can't count on Wanshou Temple, nor can we count on Zen Master Zuyuan."
"They will be deliberately permissive."
After hearing this information, Chu Qianqiu said with some enlightenment.
"Husband, what do you mean by this?"
Her Majesty the Queen also wants to report King Jing severely. If, as your husband said, the deaths of many elderly warriors have increased in various places, then it would be a good idea to report him severely like the Blood Pill case.
"Because it is very likely that Maha Temple wants to find the Sutra of Future Star Tribulations!"
"In the past, the [Future Temple] was breached by the Taoist sect, but the eminent monks who fled the Future Temple did not think about rebuilding it. At the same time, they split the "Future Star Tribulation Sutra" into three parts and scattered them all over the place."
Chu Qianqiu remembered Zen Master Zuyuan’s reminder that even after eight thousand years, Maha Temple still holds a grudge about the news about the Future Temple. Even Zen Master Zuyuan could tell the relevant information.
This means that they are very concerned about the whereabouts of the "Future Star Tribulation Sutra".
The reason why King Jing was able to move around Zhongzhou and cultivate power.
This was not because Mahasi was blind, but because King Jing was regarded as a treasure-hunting tool by Mahasi and asked him to work hard to collect the three scriptures.
King Jing, if you work hard, there will be another copy of the Zhenpai Book collected by Maha Temple.
If he collects three scriptures, he is willing to hand them over to the Maha Temple.
So what's the harm in supporting you to change the government, or turning a blind eye or closing one eye.
This is the fundamental reason why Maha Temple still did not take any action even though King Jing clearly had the Maitreya Sutra.
They want to cast a long line and catch big fish.
"Husband, I understand."
"Sure enough, it takes a martial arts holy land like this to be able to sit firmly on Diaoyutai."
"So Madam, don't put too much hope in the investigation of Mohe Temple. Unless we can catch Prince Jing, we can borrow their help."
King Jing's method of killing people is extremely miraculous, and they all die of old age normally. Who can say what's wrong with him?
"Yes, so let's check it ourselves first."
At this time, the group of people walked to King Jing's cold jade coffin. After being protected by Han Yu, King Jing's appearance was not much different from the one he had just died.
Chu Qianqiu immediately mobilized his soul to check and found that he had indeed died of old age, with almost no flaws at all, so he took the [Jiazi Divine Pill] again to check the rules.
How pitiful it is that the elixir of the True Martial Sect was used by Chu Qianqiu as a ruthless tool of the Heavenly Eye.
This time the problem was finally discovered.
"He is King Jing, but he is not King Jing."
"He actually made a flesh and blood clone, which is really interesting."
