Lei Yue Longmen

In the Town God's Temple three miles outside the city.The dark guard finally calmed down Li Jingxi who was still in shock after waking up.Because the snow was too heavy, she was concerned about her body, so she temporarily camped in the temple to avoid the wind and snow, and left after the snow stopped.

A hidden guard started two piles of bonfires, and Li Jingxi made one alone, under the care of the only female dark guard, Qi Mei.The rest of the people were sitting around another bonfire, seemingly careless, but actually paying attention to the movement around them with great vigilance.

Because they usually only protect Li Jingxuan in the dark, and Li Jingxuan has never seen them before, so he feels a little uneasy. He has to check their tokens before he believes that they are sent by his sister.But after the hidden guard took out the token, she didn't know them very well, and finally had to reluctantly believe their identities, but she kept an extra care in her heart.Pretends to be light sleep, but dare not really sleep, always ready to wait for an opportunity to escape.

Another person was tied up at the base of the wall with five flowers, staring straight at the scurrying bonfire.

The fourth brother of the dark guard poked the arm of the boss who closed his eyes and rested, "Why is he motionless, as if he is dead?"

"I removed both of his arms and he couldn't move."

The fourth child gave a strange "tsk", and threw a stick into the fire with a "snap".As a result, this ecstasy caused the other accomplices who were disturbed to be displeased, and quickly raised their hands: "Sorry, brothers, this is my first time being a Mingwei..."

This small episode did not affect the people at the base of the wall.Underneath the stagnant surface, the reality is not peaceful.The flames in his eyes seemed to burn away what he had believed in for many years.

An hour ago, the carriage left the city safely, and narrowly escaped death in a way that no one expected.

"Father, the child was reckless before, please forgive me..."

"There is nothing unforgivable, there is a cause? There must be an effect! Everything you do today is the cause of the future and the effect of the past. The cycle of cause and effect cannot be hindered by human power!"

Looking at the gloomy road ahead, there was a sneering smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he couldn't believe that this was something that Tu Yuanshan, who had always been free from restraint, could say: "Has the adoptive father decided to help Donggong to make a comeback?"

"Not bad!"

He suddenly asked strangely: "Father really believes that there will be a cycle of cause and effect, and retribution is not good?"

"Believe it or not, it's all there! It doesn't increase or decrease, it doesn't die or die."

"The righteous father thinks, is my father a good person or a bad person? He deserves a good reward or a bad reward?"

In the carriage? There was silence for a while, "Your father is sincere, loyal and brave, and he keeps his promises. He is born with a chivalrous heart and is a rare good man."

"But it didn't end well for him."

"What happened back then? It was very complicated..."

"What happened back then? It wasn't complicated." Fei Congyi twisted the reins vigorously, "It's just that a group of people did it for fame, a group for self-interest, a group for imperial power, and a group for survival. Most of them got I want what I want, life and death, fame and wealth. Only my father, who gave up his name, relics, family and country, became a target of criticism after his death, and was insulted and reviled by the world! Does the foster father think this result is fair? ?”

His questioning overshadowed Tu Yuanshan's unchanging explanations, and even the sound of wheels rolling under him.

"I'm sorry for your father!"

"No, Yifu didn't let my father down. It was the imperial court and those ungrateful civilians who were sorry for him. His death brought about 20 years of peace for the imperial court and northern Xinjiang, but the world has never treated him fairly. He fought in the battlefield for many years, devoted himself to the country, suffered countless injuries, and the court did not treat his adoptive father sincerely. How can such a huge injustice be explained by the four words of causal cycle? I dare to ask, what did I do wrong? , or the righteous father is afraid and accepts his fate! He has lost his fighting spirit! He only wants to be the loyal dog of the imperial court!"

"Presumptuous! Is this what you said to your elder? Do you still have any sense of awe!"

Fei Congyi: "Of course there are children, but they don't fear the sky when they go up, and they don't fear the earth when they go down. They only fear what they think they should fear, such as foster father, parents... and the elder brother who died wronged!"

Tu Yuanshan let out a cold "hum".

"The adoptive father's 20 years of nurturing grace to the child, the child will not forget even a day. The foster father's promotion and cultivation of the generals in northern Xinjiang, the generals in northern Xinjiang will never forget. Now that the court has turned its back on the foster father, All the generals in Northern Xinjiang are filled with righteous indignation and hate not to die for the foster father! If the foster father compromises on this, then what are the decades of forbearance and planning in Northern Xinjiang?!"

In the carriage? It fell into an eerie silence, and Tu Yuanshan's unpredictable voice came from a long while,

"What do you know? Don't think that you are smarter than any righteous brother, so you can easily see through your father's mind!"

"I don't dare! It's just that the imperial court's sword hangs on our necks. Because the East Palace helped us, the adoptive father compromised and was willing to be fish and meat. The child was stolen by the adoptive father."

"What do you know! Beijiang is no longer what it was 20 years ago, this is re-planning for the future for my father!"

"The foster father's plan is to pin his hopes on the East Palace and the little emperor's grandson?"

"Not bad!"

Fei Congyi stopped the carriage suddenly, and Tu Yuanshan in the carriage was swayed and fell forward. He quickly used the car wall to stabilize his figure, and his other hand covered his injured abdomen again.

"Father, don't be too whimsical!"

"What do you mean?" Tu Yuanshan held back the cramping pain in his abdomen and took a silent breath.

"Even if the little emperor's grandson succeeds to the throne in the future, his surname will be Li and not Tu, won't he? He is of the same mind as the Tu family. Besides, it is not certain whether he is qualified to succeed. Once the East Palace becomes the emperor, he will also face the challenge of sitting on the frontier. The question, the adoptive father thinks, she won't? Turn around and do something to Beijiang?"

"Even if you do it, that's what will happen in 20 years!" Tu Yuanshan tried his best to calm down his energy, "This Marquis and his successors have enough time to keep northern Xinjiang safe!"

"That's how it is. My father's humble life is only worth 20 years, and there will be more in the future? Will there be new ones? There really is no karma? Effect cycle, the world's karma? On the ledger!"

"Then what do you want this Marquis to do? Desperate and desperate with the court? Matter? It is about the life and death of the entire Northern Xinjiang. How can it be such a trifle?"

"Why did the righteous father say it so seriously, have you forgotten? The tribes of Northern Mongolia have shown goodwill to me in Northern Xinjiang many times..."

"Shut up!" Tu Yuanshan broke his voice with excitement, gritted his teeth and said, "My Tu family in northern Xinjiang was founded on Weiguo, but you told me to collude with Mongolia. You know that what your father hated the most during his lifetime was traitorous and seeking glory. only!"

"My son didn't ask my adoptive father to betray the country. I just want to persuade my adoptive father to use the power of Northern Mongolia to separate the regime and become king, so that I will not be restrained by the court! Does my adoptive father think that going back to northern Xinjiang will be safe and sound? No? No, see you at the court." If the adoptive father is not dead, he will definitely be murderous again! He will even send troops to attack the northern borders while the adoptive father is still injured. The East Palace is now unable to protect itself, and the only way left for the adoptive father is to become king."

"What's more, this is not only the boy's intention, but also the common wish of the whole army in Northern Xinjiang."

"The whole army?" Tu Yuanshan narrowed his eyes dangerously, "Is it Yunba or Yunlei!"

Fei Congyi knew that he began to doubt himself, who is Tu Yuanshan?A person in power who does not allow any external forces to get involved in his core authority, not even his own son? A person who trusts everything, and is instinctively alert to any behavior that infiltrates the entire army under his nose.

"Child dare not!"

"Don't you dare? I think you have been deceived by lard, and you have contracted the stinky problem of your brother-in-law! Don't think that your father doesn't know your thoughts. You hate the court, Yan As for the East Palace, if you want to avenge your father and brother, it’s all up to you! But if it’s for your own self-interest, regardless of the overall situation in northern Xinjiang, and destroys this Marquis’ policy of forming an alliance with the East Palace, even if this Marquis promised your father to protect you, you will never No? Be lenient!"

Fei Congyi gritted his teeth and blushed.

"Don't think it's ugly to speak for your father! Let's put our ugly words first, and before we do everything, we must first weigh it? Are you qualified to do this? Can you bear the consequences of doing this! Do you think this Hou doesn't want to seal off the borders and claim the king? A man's ambition always precedes his own situation, and he can't be stopped like a runaway horse, but if you want to realize your ambition, you must first learn the ability to rein in! This point, you are far worse than Donggong! Just based on this, Benhou is willing to bet his treasure on her!"

"The child refuses to accept!"

"You don't accept it, you almost couldn't get out of Weiyang City today! Who do you think our disguise is to avoid the eyes and ears of?"

"Tell you, the entire Weiyang City is hers! Before you know her attitude, the life of this Marquis and your life are in her hands?!"

The snow was falling more and more, and the north wind outside the temple was howling, and it kept rushing in through the window panes. Suddenly, the leader of the dark guards heard a series of bells ringing, and gradually approached the ruined temple, and suddenly became alert.

After a while, a young man wearing a bamboo hat and a gray robe came to the ruined temple huffing and huffing, with a dejected claret horse behind him.

"Bodhisattvas, it's snowing too much tonight, and it's hard to walk. Could you allow me to stay here for a night?" After speaking, he took off his bamboo hat and looked up at the black-clothed guard at the door.

The hidden guard saw that the person who came was a young monk, who looked only fourteen or fifteen years old, so he relaxed his guard and set aside a corner of the wall for him, "Go there! There are female relatives in the temple , don’t visit and walk around at will!”

"Yes! Thank you, benefactor!" As he spoke, he wanted to lead the horse in with him!The dark guard stopped immediately, "Horses can't come in!"

The little monk raised his head again and said: "The benefactor, please tell me, this horse has eaten something bad on the road somehow, and has been sick until now! Because it was a gift from a friend, and the monk has to return it intact. You see it's freezing outside now, if it catches the cold, its life may be in danger! Please show mercy to the benefactor and remember it in his previous life? Animals are reincarnated as horses to pay for previous crimes. Let it rest in the temple? Let’s rest overnight! The Buddha said..."

"You little monk, why are you so verbose! If you say no, you can't! Never mind its previous life? It was a human or a ghost, but in this life? Since it is an animal, it cannot be in the same room with humans!"

"You benefactor, why are you so hard-hearted? If you were under my master's sect, you would have to copy the scriptures a thousand times and be punished by kneeling in the Buddhist hall!"

"Hehe!" The hidden guard rolled up his sleeves, went down the steps, and wanted to knock him on the head, but was stopped by another hidden guard.Withdrew his hand resentfully, but still couldn't help punishing his tongue quickly, "The little monk is not old, and his tone is not small, you want to punish me? Try!"

The little monk lowered his head and ignored him.The hidden guard crossed his arms and said fiercely: "Anyway, animals are not allowed to enter this door. If you want animals to enter, then you don't want to enter! It's freezing outside, right?"

The little monk wanted to retort at first, but then he thought that the gain outweighed the loss, so he raised his head, "Is it true that we can only enter one of the two of us?"

"Yes!"

"Can the words of the benefactor count?"

"Of course it counts!"

"Okay then!" The little monk put on the bamboo hat, put the rein in his hand, and patted the horse back, "The benefactor can find a wider and faster place for it to tie it up! I will guard it outside!"

The dark guard was dumbfounded when he heard that, "You little monk, you are fighting against me, aren't you?"

"It's what the benefactor said, we can only enter one of the two of us! Gentleman? One word is hard to follow. Please don't break your promise."

"I...I said it...but I said that people can enter, but horses cannot, you little monk! How dare you take advantage of me, I..."

"Let him in!"

The hidden guard was about to teach him a lesson, when Li Jingxi, who had been dozing off all this time, stood up and stopped him, "You clearly agreed to him, but your words don't count, what kind of a hero are you!"

"Little master, you bring the horse in!"

"Thank you, benefactor!"

The dark guard blushed, and was very embarrassed, and let the little monk lead the horse into the temple.Originally, the little monk wanted to go to Fei Congyi's side, but when he met the warning eyes of the dark guard, he had no choice but to turn to the other side.While tying the horse at the corner of the wall, while looking over there, he saw a person being tied up, and thought to himself, could these people be bandits?Taking hostages and preparing to kill them?
