Bright Spring

After pondering for a while, there is no perfect solution at this time, it seems that I have to bite the bullet and take risks.Zhu Gaoxu then decided to get through the day, try to leave this place at night, and then go back to the mansion where he hid first to hide.

... No food was delivered in the morning or at noon. Zhu Gaoxu only ate half a steamed bun since yesterday morning, and he was so hungry that his belly was almost sticking to his back.

In the afternoon, he suddenly heard a voice, which seemed to be Monk Qingyuan!He immediately pricked up his ears to make sure he heard right?

The voice suspected to be that of Monk Qingyuan said: "The poor monk has something to ask, has the master seen a tall young male benefactor?"

Xiao Ni's voice said: "No, only incense candles are sold here."

Zhu Gaoxu immediately poked his head to the entrance, glanced down, and immediately retracted.Even with just one glance, he could see that it was indeed Monk Qingyuan!

Qingyuan said: "His family said that the teacher lost a cat and he returned it to the teacher. You have met before."

"The poor nun doesn't know him, I have forgotten what it looks like," said the little nun.

Zhu Gaoxu didn't act rashly. First, he didn't know what was going on down there, when the other nun would come back; second, he couldn't be sure whether there was only one person in Qingyuan.

Qing Yuan's voice said again: "If the wife sees that person again, please tell me that there is no one at home, so tell him to go home first."

Xiao Ni's voice said: "If we can meet again, I will definitely let you know."

Zhu Gaoxu immediately thought about it... Maybe Du Qianrui told Zheng He, Wang Bin and others about the cat delivery that day, but they couldn't find Zhu Gaoxu, and then went to Qingyuan to discuss it; that's why Qingyuan knew this place and came to test it out.

After a while, someone came up the ladder.Zhu Gaoxu waited calmly, and when he saw Xiao Ni's face, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiao Ni stood on the ladder and didn't come up, so he said, "Did the benefactor hear what you said just now?"

Zhu Gaoxu nodded.

Xiao Ni said: "Senior sister has gone out, if you want to leave, do so now!"

After Zhu Gaoxu heard this, he immediately got up and walked over to the ladder.Xiao Ni went down the ladder first.

When he went downstairs, Xiao Ni grabbed a handful of incense and handed it over. He looked at him with bright eyes and said nothing.Zhu Gaoxu understood, took the incense stick, and walked out.

As soon as he took two steps, Zhu Gaoxu felt impulsive, turned his head and said, "Are you still willing to stay in Jiming Temple and suffer that crime?"

Xiao Ni shook his head, his big eyes suddenly revealed a complex look of melancholy and anticipation, which made Zhu Gaoxu feel uncomfortable for a while.

He didn't dare to stay for a long time, so he immediately said: "Take you away now, it is very likely that you will not be able to leave, and you will be implicated! Just wait a while, as long as I am still alive, I will definitely come to pick you up."

Xiao Ni raised her head to look at him, and said softly: "The benefactor, don't forget the skin-to-skin relationship, and don't lose your words."

After hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu had mixed feelings in his heart, and he asked, "What's your name?"

"Yao Ji." Xiao Ni replied in a low voice.

After hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu stretched out his hand to lower his hat, and strode out.

The carriage that was parked nearby yesterday is no longer there, and Zhu Gaoxu doesn't know who got away with it.He lowered his head and walked towards the alley ahead.

The alley was still very clean, Zhu Gaoxu walked all the way without meeting anyone.He walked to the gate of the courtyard, saw that the door was unlocked, stretched out his hand and opened it, and walked in immediately.Monk Qingyuan was standing alone at the door of a room, looking at this side with joy.

Zhu Gaoxu locked the gate of the courtyard, walked over and cupped his fists and said, "Master Qingyuan is alright?"

Qingyuan said: "The poor monk is fine here."

"Okay, let's talk inside." Zhu Gaoxu strode into the house, and then went straight to the kitchen to see if there were any leftovers.

Qing Yuan followed up and said, "The poor monk will go and buy some fast food for King Gaoyang later." He continued, "Yesterday, the city suddenly started to search Mr. Zhong, and the poor monk was very worried. According to what Zheng He said It is said that King Gaoyang made an appointment to meet outside the city, but King Gaoyang has not arrived..."

Zhu Gaoxu interjected: "I can't get out at all! I just found out that something was wrong yesterday. When I walked through Jubao Gate, there was already an investigation at the gate of the city! I was almost arrested several times in the city."

Qingyuan let out a sigh of relief: "Luckily, King Gaoyang escaped the pursuit, otherwise it would be unthinkable! Miss Du, who is under King Gaoyang, mentioned a young nun in Jiming Temple; there are almost no young nuns in the nunnery, and Wang Bin said that he went out yesterday When I was there, I saw a handsome little Ni on the street outside.

The poor monk was close to Jilong Mountain, so he really didn't know where King Gaoyang was, so he came over to try and ask, but he didn't expect King Gaoyang to be nearby. "

"I guess that's the case too." Zhu Gaoxu nodded, "Fortunately, that little nun has a kind heart, and the kindness of a drop of water will be repaid, otherwise I would have been blocked in Xiangzhu Street yesterday."

He was terrified after thinking about it, almost escaped by luck!When the King of Yan said that he wanted to persuade Li Jinglong and others to surrender, Zhu Gaoxu knew that it was an errand with his head, and it was as expected.

Now he is not only afraid, but also feels that it is still dangerous.

Zhu Gaoxu said with a sad face: "What should I do now? It is extremely difficult to get out of the city. I want to hide here for a while, but I can't stay here for a long time. It is very likely that I will be found out... There are many clues, such as walking back from Xiangzhu Street just now. Well, quite a few people have seen that I am tall; I don’t know what’s going on with the carriage. I’m afraid I’ll be unlucky if I have a little trick.”

Monk Qingyuan nodded and said: "What King Gaoyang said is very true. There are only two roads at this time. Either hide to avoid the limelight, or try to get out of the city. Both roads are very dangerous and extremely difficult."

He paused, then pondered again, "I have a chance these few days."

"Oh?" Zhu Gaoxu immediately looked at Qingyuan.

Qingyuan said: "The current queen's cousin just passed away, and the monks from Xuanzang Temple were invited to take her as a rescuer. The poor monk just found out about it. In two days, the coffin will be sent back to her hometown for burial, so she will have to go out of the city. The queen's house the coffin of the city, the officers and soldiers of the city must not dare to open the coffin to search..."

"Master, what do you mean, I hid in a coffin and left the city?" Zhu Gaoxu asked in surprise.

Monk Qingyuan nodded solemnly, "The poor monk also said just now that it is very dangerous to go out of the city."

Zhu Gaoxu took a few steps, and finally said, "What should I do specifically? Can Master Qingyuan talk about it first?"

Qing Yuan whispered something.

After hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu pondered for a while, "It's really impossible to make a mistake...The body of the deceased is replaced, how to make the mansion so that no one can find it?"

Qing Yuan pondered: "We still have to think carefully. However, the corpse does not necessarily have to be carried out. The coffin is very pompous, big and thick, made of cypress wood, and very heavy. It takes at least eight people to carry it on the carriage. They don't necessarily know if it's heavier."

Zhu Gaoxu's face was uglier than crying, he just felt that this matter could be said to be absurd, but there was really no other way.It took him two days to truly comprehend that the difficulty and danger of going to the capital to do this job far surpassed that of charging in battle!

"I'm really hungry, Master Qingyuan go out and buy me something to eat first." Zhu Gaoxu said, "Let me think about it for a while."

Qing Yuan saluted with one hand and said, "The poor monk will go now."

Zhu Gaoxu sent him to the gate of the courtyard, closed the door, and then paced back and forth in the courtyard with a very heavy heart.

Chapter 1 Ten

During just a short nap, Zhu Gaoxu had a strange dream.

The air-conditioning was overwhelming, and the surroundings were quiet and gloomy, as if in the underworld.He opened a coffin, and saw a lady with heavy make-up lying inside.The woman's face was pale, with bright red rouge on her red lips, she lay there motionless.

He didn't know why he was in this place or where he was, and there was no one around him.At this moment, the woman in front of her suddenly opened her eyes!Looking at him, he sneered.

"Ah!" Zhu Gaoxu was about to wake up suddenly, only to feel his whole body was bitingly cold, and when he opened his eyes, he realized that he had fallen asleep without a quilt.He sat up and looked back at the surrounding scene. There was no coffin, and the light coming in from the window made the room bright.Only then did he let out a long breath, and the sound of "dong dong dong" in his chest still did not subside.

Zhu Gaoxu put on his shoes, walked to the window, and observed the scene at the foot of Jilong Mountain.Feelings of insecurity linger on me all the time.

At this moment, he found the familiar figure busy in and out of the Jiming Temple courtyard.When Zhu Gaoxu saw her, his body seemed to warm up, and he felt like meeting an old friend in a foreign land.

He sat down on the chair and continued to observe that little girl named Yao Ji doing some trivial things.
