With the sound of turning the pages of the file in Wu Mei's hand, black lines gradually began to appear on Wu Mei's jade-white forehead.
The ancient power began to appear on Wu Mei's trembling jade hands. Just when Li Zhi turned his head and wondered why Wu Mei had been silent for a long time, Wu Mei threw the file on the table with a snap.
He quickly stood up and walked to Li Hong, whose shoulders were held down by Yang Wu. The jade hand left an afterimage in front of Li Hong's eyes. Li Hong suddenly felt as if his ears were about to fall off, and he let out a heart-rending howl.
"Ah... oh... it hurts, mother... it's wrong... I know I'm wrong! I really know... ah... it hurts, it's really wrong."
Looking at Li Hong's ear that was about to be ripped off, Li Zhi couldn't bear it, but looking at the black lines all over Wu Mei's forehead, it was better not to get into trouble at this time.
"Okay, then you can explain to me! How did you find out that these soybean sprouts were given to Lunzhai by your aunt? How did you find out that it was your aunt's idea to grow the Buddha statue on this land? You little brat, If you don't give me an explanation today, you won't want this ear anymore!" Wu Meihan asked with a stern face and gritted teeth.
Before Li Hong could speak, Wu Mei's husband Li Zhi also tugged the other ear.
"Tell me, how did Helan Minzhi know Lunzhai, and how did he accept Lunzhai as his disciple with the permission of Abbot Jiashang! How did Helan Minzhi know Jiashang? How did Wu Yuanqing and Wu Yuanshuang get along with each other? Several other people conspired! Please explain this to me clearly!" Li Zhi stood on the other side and asked angrily.
"Maybe it was Helan Minyue's idea. She is young, so maybe she knows better... Ah, that's wrong. Mother, I don't dare to talk nonsense anymore."
"Where's my explanation?" Li Zhi asked again.
"Helan Minzhi, maybe he knew Lunzhai, oh, no, it was Jiashang. It happened that Lunzhai wanted to... become a monk, and then they got to know each other... ah, it hurts, father, I don't dare to talk nonsense Eight ways."
"Okay, then tell me how Dai Zhide, the Minister of Rites, and Wang Yifang, the censor, colluded with Ci'en Temple! What happened to Yang Wu, my personal eunuch? And Lian Tie, your mother's eunuch, What's going on? How did they secretly join forces to commit this crime of deceiving the emperor? "
"Say, if you don't give me a reasonable explanation, Li Hong, you won't be able to take your two ears back to the East Palace!" As soon as Li Zhi finished speaking, Wu Mei's voice rose.
Li Hong was starting to regret it now. Sitting on the steps with Liu Zhengli yesterday, he suddenly had an idea. He originally wanted Wu Yuanqing to report to his father so that he could blame Jiangdong, but he didn't expect that Wu Yuanqing had already gone to Lingnan.
So in a second thought, Li Hong decided to target Wu Shun and the others. Since they had nothing to do, he found something for his aunt, his father, and his mother to do before he went to Taiyi City. Add some congestion.
After thinking about it later, I realized that, yes, Dai Zhide and Wang Yifang had always been against me, so I added them.
Then I thought about it with Xia Zhi and others for a long time, and repeatedly confirmed that there were only a few people who were right with me.
As a result, Yang Wu and Lian Tie were also included in this case.
In the Ci'en Temple deception case, Lun Zhai, the original mastermind, became a small role running errands. Even Jiashang was not qualified to "serve the table" and became a slightly more important role running errands than Lun Zhai.
The main murderers in this case are the Korean wife Wu Shun, Wu Shun's daughter Helan Minyue, Wu Shun's son Helan Minzhi, the Minister of Rites Dai Zhide, the censor Wang Yifang, the former Shaofu Shaojiao Wu Yuanshuang, and the Zongzhengsi Shaoqing Wu Yuanqing. A total of nine people, including Lian Tie, the queen's personal eunuch, and Yang Wu, the emperor's personal eunuch, plotted this major case of deceiving the emperor on a dark and stormy night.
Li Zhi and Wu Mei were sitting in the palace, looking at the little man who had grown into a big tree under the small tree he planted back then, and looked at each other in tacit understanding.
They were able to stand at the top of the Tang Empire, so naturally they had a different sensitivity than ordinary people. After a while, they understood that this was the little thing's unique way of resolving this Buddhist fate case.
It would not make the royal family look bad, nor would it lead to the accusation of deceiving the emperor in Ci'en Temple just because the emperor and empress were here.
In the end, the case was reduced to a major matter and a trivial matter, and it was settled. It was as if Lun Zhai had never appeared before, and there would never be such a person in this world again.
Jiashang, on the other hand, returned to Ci'en Temple after being imprisoned in Zongzheng Temple for a month and began to preside over everything in Ci'en Temple. However, the popularity of the temple was much more prosperous than before the emperor and empress went there. I am afraid this is also because after the emperor and empress went there. , It may have caused the herd mentality of many people in Chang'an.
As for the Buddha statue growing under the ground, no one is investigating whether it is true or false anymore.
Huineng and Shenxiu entered the palace in person, handed the kapok cassock into Wu Mei's hands, and held a grand handover ceremony in a palace in the palace. The Buddhist hall in the palace was officially completed.
But these had nothing to do with Li Hong. After being beaten up by the emperor and the empress, he slowly left Chang'an City with his four maids and four eunuchs, a group of nine people, the next day. Heading to Taiyi City, which I haven’t been to for a long time.
The carriage on the official road was not in a hurry. Two horses with no mottled colors were like ink, walking in the middle of the official road with their heads held high. Hua Meng and Cheetah were sitting on both sides of the carriage, and behind the carriage were sitting Looking at Jingzhe and Mang Zhong.
Needless to say, in the carriage, sitting were Li Hong, who had just been beaten, and four palace maids: Xia Zhi, Bai Lu, Xiao Xue, and Xiao Han.
"At this moment, if I don't recite a poem, I would be sorry for this carefree and warm afternoon. Xia Zhi, if you write a poem, I will evaluate it for you." Li Hong comfortably placed his body between Xia Zhi and Bai Lu In his arms, his head rested on Bai Lu's head, and he played with Bai Lu's hair from time to time and said lazily.
"You have tea." Xiaoxue skillfully made tea on the table. After brewing, she hurriedly poured out a small cup and placed it in front of Xiaoxue.
"Yes, my tea skills are getting better. In a few days, I'm afraid I can surpass that demon Bai Chun." Li Hong rested his head on Bai Lu's head and continued to press his head down. While enjoying the elastic softness on the back of his head, he opened his mouth to taste it. Drinking fresh tea.
Li Hong, who was released from Chang'an City, was like a wild beast released from a cage. Nothing made him feel more comfortable than this moment. In Chang'an City, it seemed that there was always an invisible shackle that restrained him, preventing him from doing whatever he wanted.
Although he is the prince, the two people above his head remind him and beat him from time to time, so that he still cannot play without any scruples.
But Taiyi City was different. It was his territory, and it was definitely his unique territory. That was where he could let himself go.
Before the poetic mood could be brewed over the tea, the sound of rapid horse hooves could be heard from behind, as well as loud shouts for him to get out of the way.
Mang Zhong and Jingzhe were sitting in the back, naturally seeing everything clearly, watching the eight or so horses galloping over in a puff of smoke.
The two of them followed the prince's wishes of keeping a low profile and not causing trouble when traveling, and signaled Hua Meng and Cheetah, who were driving the car, to move aside.
After the carriage pulled to the side of the road, eight strong horses galloped past the carriage, leaving behind a trail of dust that choked Hua Meng and Cheetah in front of the carriage, waving their hands to wave away the dust.
Li Hong in the carriage looked through the glass window at the retreating figure, and remembered Xiaoxue's muttering to himself: "What are these people doing in Taiyi City? Didn't you see a carriage? Riding like that So fast, without caring about other people’s feelings.”
Li Hong turned to look at Xiaoxue curiously and asked, "How do you know that when people go to Taiyi City, this official road can also go to Lantian County."
"Looking at it, if you don't see the bulging pockets in your waist, you must have brought a lot of money to buy something." Xiaoxue said firmly.
"Hey, I observed you quite carefully. Yes, I'll give you a verbal commendation." Li Hong continued to lie lazily on the towering white dew, and his poetry suddenly disappeared.
I didn't meet anyone else who was in a hurry along the way. Occasionally, I would pass by a few horses and they would deliberately slow down when crossing the carriage to minimize the dust raised by the horses' hooves.
Taiyi City has no city walls. This was proposed by Li Hong when it was first built. Therefore, the sign of entering Taiyi City is the huge wooden copper coin on the roadside. After the copper coin, Taiyi City is inside, and the back of the copper coin is naturally outside Taiyi City.
Regarding that huge copper coin, every time Bai Chun passed by, he had the urge to tear it apart.
Prosperous, with green trees and flowers, the entire Taiyi City is built like a huge garden. However, it is this copper coin with a strong copper odor that ruins the view of Taiyi City from Taiyi Mountain. all the beauty.
Although the city gates and walls are gone, some people who already live in Taiyi City will still involuntarily look for the invisible city gate, and then wait for other friends and businessmen there. The copper coins also become the copper coin gate.
At the Tongqian Gate, a group of people gathered around to watch the fun. When Li Hong's carriage passed by, Li Hong was lying on Xia Zhi's chest with half his face, and Bai Lu was holding a piece of hair in his hand and was picking out his ears.
Xiaoxue looked outside and suddenly said: "Sir, it's those people. They seem to have hit someone."
"Who are these people? Do you have any acquaintances here?"
"No, it's those people riding fast horses we met on the road. It looks like they hit someone and are trying to reason with them."
"If you ride so fast after entering the city, you should pay for it." Li Hong lay on Xia Zhi's chest and said lazily.
"It turned out to be Wen Ting and Wen Zhen." Xiaoxue murmured as she looked at the two leaders.
"Who?" Li Hong suddenly got up from Xia Zhi and looked out the window hurriedly.
