The Untouchable Daiyu of the Red Chamber

Liu Zheng's memorial shocked many people. After all, in terms of the current reputation of a monk and a monk, if they are liars, what are those who believe in their supernatural powers?People's mentality is very strange. Once you invest in something, you will get deeper and deeper.Those who described Yi Monk as omnipotent before, their first reaction was not to reflect whether they were deceived, but to accuse Liu Zheng of colliding with the gods and would suffer retribution.

Of course, it was Changkang Palace mother and son who were most shocked.The Changkang Palace mother and son were already guilty of treachery, but they were not as confident as those believers outside.

The Ninth Prince paced around, his tone a little anxious, and asked: "Mother, do you think Liu Zheng really caught the way of monks or just sang an empty city plan?"

Concubine Zhong is also upset now.Before, little concubine Zhong always felt that her realm had improved, and she could maintain her composure even in difficult situations. Now little concubine Zhong knew that her so-called improvement was just that she was not forced into a desperate situation.

"Impossible! It was already half a year ago that monks and Taoists were active in the south of the Yangtze River. If Liu Zhengzhen discovered their abnormality, he should have been caught several months ago. Why did he suddenly hand over the papers now? Didn't I hear that the Lin family wrote to them before?" Have you discussed marriage with the Liu family? It's not necessarily true that the Lin family asked Liu Zheng to bluff."

Hearing what Little Concubine Zhong said, the Ninth Prince felt a little more at ease.But to be practical, it is impossible for the mother and son to be practical.I thought that girl Lin would definitely die this time, but who knew the twists and turns, now the emperor not only did not issue an imperial edict, but even sent scouts to investigate the situation in Beidi.

Because of the Marquis of Beijiang, Concubine Zhong knew the situation in Beidi the best.However, the Daling Dynasty did not only assassinate all the way, Emperor Taizong also had other sources of information, and the situation in Beidi could not be hidden from Emperor Taizong.In other words, even if the daughters of the Lin family did not go to Beidi, Beidi would still be a courtier in order to survive the predicament. Then why did Emperor Taizong use the daughter of his courtiers in exchange for benefits, and the heart of his courtiers?

Concubine Xiao Zhong said: "The daughter of the Lin family must be eliminated. If she can escape this time, a killer will be sent to kill her! In addition, if the news about Situ Zhuo is released, Situ Rui will naturally get rid of him !"

It's a pity that Emperor Taizong didn't give Little Concubine Zhong a chance to send a killer.

On the first day of the court meeting after Liu Zheng's zhezi entered Beijing, some officials mentioned this matter at the court meeting.

After all, what Liu Zheng handed over was not a secret document, and even the people in the capital were discussing it, and it was their job to hear the news and play it.

Speaking officials, they have always spoken loudly.Regarding this time, Yanguan directly mentioned the weakening and influence of theocracy on the monarchy, citing extensively from many sources, citing the impact of Buddhism on people's livelihood after the growth of Buddhism in history, and the infringement on imperial power may even subvert the imperial power.

The truth in this, the emperor must understand.The so-called world of those who win the hearts of the people, and now the hearts of the people are all towards the so-called great men and real people. Now these two people are predicting disasters and predicting disasters, and they have won the hearts of the people. Who is not afraid of sitting on the dragon chair when the rebellion is raised?

So Emperor Taizong didn't interrupt the speaker and let the speaker continue.After finishing speaking, let the officials discuss.

The opinions of all officials will definitely not be unified, and a debate is indispensable.

There are two main voices at the court meeting: one is the matter of eating the emperor's salary and loyalty to the emperor. It is true that the power of theocracy has suddenly become so popular, and the stability of the power of the monarch must be considered; the other is this time. All Taoists and monks are different. They have true supernatural powers. How can the supernatural beings with true supernatural powers collide?Besides, the real gods will not come to snatch the monarchy in the mortal world, don't worry about it, but it will attract the dissatisfaction of the gods and bring disasters.

When the Ninth Prince heard this, his heart jumped out of his stomach with fright.The discussion of other officials was based on not knowing the details of one monk and one. The Ninth Prince clearly knew what was going on with one monk and one. The mother and child died without a place to bury them.

So the Ninth Prince had no choice but to walk out of the class and said: "Qi Zou Father, I think it is enough to respect ghosts and gods and stay away, there is no need to deliberately bump into the gods." The Ninth Prince did not dare to speak too much with a monk, but this In a word, it also brought troubles to Changkang Palace.

The influence of one monk and one is too great, and it has affected the neighboring country Beidi. As the king of a country, he does not want to see other people with more influence than himself.Besides, if you are a monk and a god together, aren't you also a little god who accumulates merit in the world?Is it too big to be a son of heaven?

So Emperor Taizong really decided to investigate the matter thoroughly, and directly proposed to conduct a joint trial of the three divisions together with the arrested monk.Moreover, Emperor Taizong, the official of the interrogation this time, did not ask the officials to nominate him, but appointed people himself, and asked the officials to express their opinions.

Isn't the so-called statement of all officials just to act according to the emperor's face?The emperor has expressed his position in this way. If he still does not support it, do future officials want to do it well?

The matter of the three divisions interrogating the monk was settled in this way, and because Emperor Taizong paid too much attention to it, neither Changkang Palace nor the Lin family intervened.

The Lin family is not afraid of not being able to intervene. Now this pair of fake monks and Taoists are not the only ones caught. Even if this pair of tongue-in-cheek scrutiny dies and they don't reveal the truth, are they all hard-headed?As long as a pair of monks and Taoists are most feared, it is enough to solve Changkang Palace.

But Changkang Palace is afraid. Now the little Concubine Zhong, mother and son are as anxious as ants on a hot pot, and they don't dare to inquire too much about the interrogation of one monk and one.At this moment, anyone who is anxious is showing a guilty conscience. Emperor Taizong attaches so much importance to this issue, he will naturally send people to pay attention to the reactions of all parties.

Little Concubine Zhong regretted it a little now, and said: "If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't push the reputation of this monk so high."

The Ninth Prince sighed, and said: "It's no wonder mother and concubine, Daoist Miaomiao and Master Boundless are the weapons in our hands, who wouldn't want a sharper weapon?" But it's too sharp, which aroused the emperor's fear.

But the matter has come to this point, Changkang Palace always has to struggle.In the matter of the joint trial of the three divisions, the Changkang Palace could not intervene, but the public opinion still had some control, and then rumors spread among the people, saying that someone used the death row prisoner to pretend to be a big man and a real person, and lied about capturing two gods , Ask the emperor for credit.

Hearing this news, Daiyu only commented lightly: "Changkang Palace is completely panicked, and has fallen out of its wits. Now we can advise the whole country to issue a notice to recruit witnesses who have seen one monk and one."

Yes, this monk made such a big commotion together, but he took advantage of being dirty and ugly, and no one looked closely, but they have appeared all over the country, and there are always a few sharp-eyed people who can recognize them. If they come out, if the monks and Taoists recognized by the people in different places look different, the rumors will be self-defeating.

However, within a few days, there was another news about a monk appearing together.It is said that Situ Zhuo, the seventh son of His Highness the Crown Prince, also descended from an immortal, but a servant of Shenying, who had watered the nectar for Fairy Jiangzhu back then.

This time, things about the vast masters and Miao Miao real people became complicated and confusing again.Didn't it mean that the two gods were arrested by the prefect of Songjiang and escorted to Beijing?Don't worry about catching those who are fake, the real Master Boundless and Master Miao Miao are still hard to find in the fairy trail, and they only show up when they have the opportunity.

When Daiyu got the news, she was very shocked.There are different opinions about the waiter of Shenying in the book, some say it belongs to Jia Baoyu, others say that the waiter of Shenying is Zhen Baoyu, and Jia Baoyu is just a man who repairs the sky stone?Why did Situ Zhuo change this time?Later, when Situ Zhuo came to the Lin family by asking Lin Ruhai for advice, the two couldn't help but look at each other when they thought about it.

Daiyu sighed and said, "The little prince was dragged into the water after all."

Situ Zhuo didn't think it mattered: "Although Little Concubine Zhong is a bit smart, she can't compete with the girl. Since the girl has a way to break the game, I will use the girl's ability to break the game to get rid of this reputation."

Daiyu shook her head: "Little prince is different from me, I am a woman, you are not only a man, but also from the East Palace."

Daiyu only spoke half of what she said, and Situ Zhuo naturally understood what she meant, but Situ Zhuo was very free and easy: "Brother Rui Wang is a sensible person, so he shouldn't be entangled in this." Daiyu didn't say anything.

The reappearance of a monk together briefly caused a new storm of public opinion, but as Feng Jing, the prefect of Quanzhou, also said that he had arrested the charlatan who bluffed and deceived the people, and had already been escorted to Beijing, this kind of public opinion fell into another chaos.This is equivalent to reminding the world that there are more than one pair of monks.Any wise person can also think that many monks and Taoists can create the illusion that the vast masters and the insignificant real people have the ability to fly into the sky and escape the earth, and shrink the earth into an inch.

When Emperor Taizong found out, he was furious, and ordered the arrest of the monstrous monks and Taoists throughout the country. At the same time, Lin Ruhai's advice was accepted, and a notice was issued to ask the local governments to recruit people who had seen a monk and Dao Dao to come to Beijing to testify.

Not to mention, news came from Situ Zhuo that the Beijing Palace had found evidence of involvement in spreading rumors.Then, King Ruijun reported the matter directly to the imperial court.

When more and more monks and Taoists were escorted to Beijing, and witnesses who had seen the monks and Taoism arrived in Beijing one after another, Changkang Palace knew that the situation was over.

Concubine Zhong's face was full of sternness, and she said: "This is impossible, all this is not like the person Liu Zheng accidentally discovered that there was something wrong with the monk's way and arrested him."

The Ninth Prince said: "What does the mother concubine mean?"

Little Concubine Zhong was originally very beautiful, but now her face is haggard, her eyes are red, and she looks a little crazy. She only heard little Concubine Zhong say: "We have been tricked, Lin Daiyu, Lin Daiyu is a monster, she knew it a long time ago, Know the secrets of the vast masters and the Miao real people."

When the Ninth Prince heard it, he suddenly realized.In this way, many coincidences before and after this incident also make sense.However, in the places under the jurisdiction of officials who are close to the Lin family, although there are monks and Taoists, they have not been contacted for several months; why did Liu Zheng suddenly expose the lies of the monks when he felt that the winning ticket was at hand.

No, the lies have been exposed long ago. Even in places like Songjiang, Quanzhou, and Yuehai, the government is simply waiting for the monks and Taoists to fall into the trap.As for the monks who were still active in these places later, it is very likely that Liu Zheng, Feng Jing, Shi Ding and others sent people to pretend to be them.

False monkhood is exchanged for fake monkhood.People recognize people by their lameness, lameness, and slovenliness.Even if the fake monks who are active in the local area are stolen and replaced by others, it can still create the illusion of gods haunting, and Changkang Palace will not know.

This time, Concubine Zhong and the Ninth Prince did guess the truth, but it was too late.

"Mother and concubine, we have lost! Shui Lan, that demon girl Shui Lan has missed us!" The Ninth Prince gritted his teeth.

Little Concubine Zhong laughed, and said: "No, what Shui Lan said is true. Shui Lan said that the emperor, you will rule the world. All the natural and man-made disasters that Shui Lan said are true, and you must become a great treasure." It's true! If you keep the green hills alive, you won't have to worry about no firewood, so hurry up, my son!"

Although Concubine Zhong fell into a state of madness, she still had a trace of sobriety. A concubine and a prince who made such a big lie and tried to use ghosts and gods to influence the court's decision-making, this is a serious crime of treason.

Ninth Prince said: "Father is getting angry now, if I leave, won't I be calling myself?"

Little Concubine Zhong laughed wildly, and then burst into tears, and said: "Now how many monks and Taoists we released have been arrested, no matter how calm you are, can you hide it from your father? Your son, you must Let's go. I have already prepared substitutes for you and Mrs. Chen, and they will pretend to be you and stay in the palace these days. As long as you and Mrs. Chen arrive in Beijiang, Beijiang will not ignore you."

Beijiang Hou was tied extremely tightly in the same boat by the concubine Zhong, if the Chen family were punished for treason, Beijiang Hou would not end well.

The mother and son were talking when a shrill voice sounded from outside.In the past, Concubine Zhong loved hearing these words the most. In the harem, these four words meant holy favor.But at this moment, Concubine Zhong was frightened when she heard the servant chanting the words 'The Emperor is here'.

Emperor Taizong didn't wait for the palace servants of Changkang Palace to report, he strode in, raised his hand and slapped Concubine Zhong, and said: "I used to pity you for entering the palace at such a young age, thinking that you were sincerely helping the crown prince. I have always treated you kindly. I didn’t expect you to be so ambitious that you would fabricate big lies in an attempt to sway me! If I was deceived by you this time, will you use that set of fairy tales to control me step by step in the future? You will end up with the faint king!"

Emperor Taizong has been on the throne for almost 40 years, and his power in the world has long since reached its peak. What he wants is only a reputation in the history books.The same is true, Taizong attached great importance to the franchise of maritime trade.What Changkang Palace did this time really hit Emperor Taizong's pain point.

Once he becomes a foolish emperor in the history books, he will be scolded by future generations for thousands of years. This is definitely not what any emperor would like to see.

Little Concubine Zhong looks quite crazy now, but as a mother, she always protects the calf.If it wasn't for the Ninth Prince, Little Concubine Zhong would not be where she is today.So Concubine Zhong knelt down neatly, knocked her head heavily on the ground, and said: "Your Majesty, there are thousands of mistakes, all of which are caused by my concubine's obsession. It's the fault of one person. All of this has nothing to do with the emperor's son. Please also look at the emperor. For the sake of the emperor's flesh and blood, don't anger the emperor."

The Ninth Prince glanced at the little Concubine Zhong who had a black bag on her forehead, and originally wanted to step forward and share the responsibility with her mother.But once the crime is confessed, he will definitely die, and even after death, he will be expelled from the clan. When the matter came to an end, the Ninth Prince was afraid, and knelt down and said: "Father, mother and concubine are also confused for a while, the child begged Father Huang Hong is generous, please spare my concubine this time." He also kowtowed.

But the Ninth Prince followed Little Concubine Zhong's words and cleared himself up.He was indeed instilled with ambition by Concubine Zhong since he was a child. When he was discussing marriage, Concubine Zhong told him why he wanted to marry the Chen family, and told him to have enough respect for the Chen family no matter what, so that he could step by step. Participate in the layout of the plan to seize the throne.

But all of this is led by Concubine Zhong. The Ninth Prince has always been under the protection of his mother's wings. The growth of ability and responsibility has not matched the growth rate of his ambition.When the disaster was approaching, the Ninth Prince finally pushed the burden on the shoulders of his mother and concubine again.

Emperor Taizong looked at the pair of mother and son kneeling at his feet, and was extremely disappointed. They were both delusional about the throne, and they were so irresponsible. "Those charlatans said that someone told them where disasters would happen, and after receiving the mission, they went to the local area to pretend to be ghosts and confuse people. Let me ask you, how did you know where disasters would happen in advance?"

Water Lan!Shui Lan is considered an upper-middle aptitude among ordinary ladies, but she is definitely not a person with political wisdom. Even Little Concubine Zhong can cheat the truth from Shui Lan's mouth. How can Shui Lan resist the interrogation of the officials of the third department.

Emperor Taizong must not know the secret of Shuilan, because in Shuilan's dream, the nine princes forced the palace to succeed and let Emperor Taizong abdicate. If the emperor knows about this, mother and child will have no way out.

Concubine Zhong laughed wildly and said: "Your Majesty, there are real gods in the world, and these are the gods who told me. Because the gods also have a priesthood in the sky, the concubine sent mortals to pretend to be gods to spread the word. It is also to save the people from the fire. I beg the emperor to see that although the concubine made a big mistake, she did not bring losses to the court, but instead saved the people for her merits, and let the emperor who didn't know."

Concubine Xiao Zhong is a woman with political wisdom after all, so she naturally knows that even if there are real gods, it would be a serious crime not to report if she knew about it, and she would not dare to defend her innocence, but it is still possible to ask the Ninth Prince for credit.

Emperor Taizong snorted, ignored the mother and son who were kneeling on the ground, turned around and left the Changkang Palace, and then ordered the palace gate to be closed, and everyone in the Changkang Palace was grounded.As for the Ninth Prince's Mansion, it has also been surrounded by Long Jinwei, only allowed to enter, not allowed to exit.

Now the results of the joint trial of the three divisions are even more shocking. Many people who came to testify also recognized that the monks haunting various places are different people.Then, it has been confirmed that the so-called omnipotence of the two gods is a big lie, so why these people can accurately predict the disaster, Emperor Taizong must also find out the truth.

Concubine Xiao Zhong refused to tell, so she started an investigation from the palace servants of Changkang Palace. This scam has lasted for nearly two years, and it is impossible that there are no clues at all.

At this moment, Situ Zhuo timely released some evidence of violations of law and discipline in the Beijing Palace.

Originally, even if a county palace sometimes kills someone, it can be wiped out.But that was when no political opponents made a fuss about it.Of course, anyone with a high position will have political opponents, but as long as the political opponents are not sure that they can completely defeat the opponent in one fell swoop, they will not attack, so as not to anger the opponent, and the two sides will benefit from the confrontation.This is the so-called political ecological balance.

But now, the matter of one monk and one monk has caused such a big commotion, but anyone with some sensitivity knows that there will be a big reshuffle in politics.

At this time, Situ Zhuo revealed a little bit about the Beijing Palace, and the political enemies of the Beijing Palace stepped forward to bite after smelling it.During the sensitive period, there are naturally smart people who think that Shui Lan often goes in and out of Changkang Palace. Coupled with the testimony of the Changkang Palace people, Shui Lan often talks secretly with Xiao Zhongfei in Changkang Palace, and the matter of not letting the palace people serve him is like this uncovered.

Just as Little Concubine Zhong expected, Shui Lan couldn't stand the interrogation of the three divisions, and soon revealed the truth.

But what is the consciousness of the officials of the third division?No one thinks life is too long, that is, no one wants to know too many secrets.As soon as a slit was torn from Shuilan's mouth, several adults took Shuilan into prison on the grounds that this is the end of today and another day for retrial. Emperor Taizong.

Later, it was Emperor Taizong who came to Dali Temple in person and interrogated Shui Lan secretly with Dali Temple Minister.

People with high positions and weights have a majestic aura, let alone people who have been emperors for decades; Dali Temple Minister has a sense of deterrence when dealing with serious criminals. The aura of a person, just the two of them sitting there would make Shui Lan tremble with fright.

Shui Lan knew Emperor Taizong, although she had only seen it from a distance, she knew it was the emperor.

Emperor Taizong sat on the presiding judge, and the Minister of Dali Temple naturally had to set up another seat two levels down.Dali Temple Qing's interrogation methods are naturally clever, and he defrauded Shui Lan's truth with just a few words.As for Emperor Taizong, he has been just listening in.

Shui Lan can't even hold back Concubine Zhong, how long can she hold her tongue?Still using the rhetoric of the serial dream, many things have been said.

After only a few words, Emperor Taizong and Dali Siqing realized what was going on with the deception of the vast masters and Miao Miao real people.But since Shuilan can dream about many things that never happened, she is valuable.

Dali Siqing was not in a hurry, and directly asked Shui Lan to start from the year when he started having strange dreams.

Dali Siqing just said that the little concubine Zhong had already recruited all of them, and told Shui Lan not to lie so as not to hurt the palace, which was enough to scare Shui Lan from telling lies.

Then Shui Lan said everything, of course, half a day was not enough for Shui Lan to finish all the things she knew.Qing Jian of Dali Temple and a monk asked about key points, and then asked why Shui Lan told Changkang Palace such a secret.

Shui Lan has already told many truths, and this is not bad, so she will tell the truth; she said that in her dream, the Ninth Prince would ascend the throne.And it was less than two years before the Ninth Prince ascended the throne.

The real dragon emperor is still sitting on it, and Xiao Jiu ascended the throne in less than two years, so what is he?Emperor Taizong didn't make a sound or get angry, but his whole face was frighteningly serious. Shui Lan's mouth was dry at first, so he looked up and swallowed in fright, only to find that there was no drop of saliva in his mouth. .
