The husband is the future chief [infrastructure]

Although the person who copied the letter has now been found, there is no evidence to prove that the letter was written by the teacher.

And they only have one witness now, and that is Feng Yi.But now he can't speak, and he can't even write if he wants to.

Feng Ke suddenly thought of someone at this time.

He said: "Mr. Lang, Zhang Qiu also came out under the Lieyang Army. Counting the year he retired with that veteran, it happened to be the year when the Lieyang Army rebelled."

After listening, Jiang Ziyan said: "That's right, why did I forget Big Brother Zhang? When I met him back then, I heard him mention that he was a scout in the Lieyang Army, and so did the group of disabled veterans. Now thinking about the reasons he said back then, it seems a bit strange. Let’s call Brother Zhang and ask him.”

Lin Zhao looked at him and said, "Brother Zhang is currently working under General Mingwei. He is a sixth-rank military captain and belongs to the Beijing garrison. He should have been living in the camp in the western suburbs. He must first make an appointment with him." Come out to see him."

"It's okay, I'll write a letter and ask Brother Zhang to come out to meet and ask clearly."

Zhang Qiu is now in the garrison of the capital like a duck to water. Most of the soldiers in the battalion are straightforward and rough, and they are very similar to his personality.

General Mingwei also valued him very much, and directly transferred him to his camp to train him.

He didn't set up a house in central Beijing. After he went to the garrison camp, he had all his food and lodging there.

Ordinary people are not allowed to enter the important military camp. When he received Jiang Ziyan's letter, he changed shifts with others and came out.

Jiang Ziyan and the others had been back to Beijing for a while, but because they brought Feng Yi with them, they kept a low profile when they came back.Zhang Qiu received the news and came out to meet them once, but now these months have passed, and they haven't seen each other yet.

After Zhang Qiu came out, he came directly to the palace. He was regarded as a teacher from the palace. Even if he came to visit, it was logical and no one would pay much attention.

When he saw Feng Yi in the palace, Zhang Qiu's face was full of disbelief.

"General Feng is still alive?!"

Jiang Ziyan nodded, "You need to keep it secret at this time, and you must not tell anyone that General Feng is still alive."

"Of course I know this, but what is going on? Didn't it mean that the whole army was wiped out back then?"

"Brother Zhang, this is what we want to find out from you today. I remember you told me back then that a group of reinforcements let you go, right?"

"Yes. But I don't know that person either. He is wearing the general's uniform of our Great Wei. It seems that he is indeed a soldier of our side."

"But why did he let you go? A group of old, weak and disabled soldiers are a bit more hidden danger for them. Why?" Jiang Ziyan murmured.

Zhang Qiu was very confused, "Brother Yan, what are you talking about? Who is more hidden danger?"

Lin Zhao said from the side: "It's nothing, can you still think of some specific things?"

Zhang Qiu thought about what happened at that time carefully, and suddenly remembered something, and said: "I remember hearing someone say that Marquis Wu'an's reinforcements were coming, and the person who let us go seemed very anxious, and he told us to leave by a small path of."

Jiang Ziyan thought for a while, and finally figured out the key point.

The person who let Zhang Qiu go was either the reinforcements or a small branch of the Lieyang Army at that time.

They were probably aware of the court's actions, and it coincided with Liang Guo's attack. They should have made up their minds to go to the battlefield.

It's just that Zhang Qiu's team is old, weak and disabled. In order to save their lives, they were specially let go in advance.

After they left, they fought with Liang Guo and suffered heavy casualties.Later, a small part of them finally broke out, but met the reinforcements led by Marquis Wu An, and killed them on the spot.

Jiang Ziyan was a little discouraged when he couldn't get any useful information from Zhang Qiu.

But after Zhang Qiu left, the spies sent out by Prince Rong's Mansion brought back news that the Marquis of Wu'an would go out to Huguo Temple to offer incense every fifteenth day.

Jiang Ziyan didn't know much about the capital, so he asked, "Is there any mystery about this Huguo Temple? Why does Marquis Wu'an go there every fifteenth day of every month?"

Zhuo Feng guessed: "Maybe it's because he killed too many people and committed a lot of crimes, so he wanted to worship more gods and Buddhas for psychological comfort."

Lin Zhao didn't think so. According to Marquis Wu'an's calm and ruthless temperament, a person with such a scheming heart, even with so much blood on his hands, would not rely on God and Buddha for psychological comfort.A person like him only believes in the fact that my fate is up to me.

"Let's go to Huguo Temple some other day, maybe we can find some clues."

……

It happens to be August [-]th.

Huguo Temple is located on a high mountain in the southern suburbs of the capital. There are 99 steps from the foot of the mountain to the temple, which symbolizes the unity of nine and nine, and the unity of the world.

Jiang Ziyan and Lin Zhao got off the carriage, stood at the foot of the mountain and looked up. The stone steps were paved with blue bricks, winding and stretching up.

It is expensive to illuminate hundreds of blue brick and stone steps.

Jiang Ziyan stood at the foot of the mountain and sighed: "This Huguo Temple is really rich. Even the steps are so well repaired. You know, the price of these green bricks is beyond the reach of many ordinary people. It is posted here as soon as it is posted." It’s really a grand sight to climb hundreds of steps.”

Lin Zhao: "Buddhism flourished during the Great Wei Dynasty, and this Huguo Temple was named by the founding emperor of the Great Wei Dynasty. It has been built repeatedly over the years. How could it not be magnificent?"

Going up the mountain is full of steps, and it is impossible to take a carriage.

Jiang Ziyan and Lin Zhao went up on foot, and along the way, they could see pilgrims in twos and threes, holding a small bamboo basket in their hands, which contained some items for offering incense and worshiping Buddha.

Jiang Ziyan, as a soul who traveled through the new century, used to only believe in science, not gods and Buddhas.But since his soul took over someone else's shell, he began to hold the idea that he would rather believe in something than believe in nothing.

It is these hundreds of steps that are really difficult to walk, and he has not exercised for a long time, and he will rest for a while after walking for a long time.

However, although there are a little more steps along the way, the scenery along the way is indeed beautiful.

Not to mention the towering ancient trees, there is still gurgling water in this mountain, the birdsong is quiet, and Zen is everywhere.

The closer you go up to the monastery on the top of the mountain, you can still hear the faint bells and the calming recitation of Buddhist scriptures.

The two of them came very early today to avoid meeting Marquis Wu An.

It wasn't until halfway up the mountain that the sky was completely bright, and the morning glow in the sky slowly revealed its face from behind the emerald peaks. Jiang Ziyan felt peaceful for no reason when he heard the sound of the bell ringing in the distance.

Thanks to their early departure, it was already an hour after climbing these steps to the top of the mountain.

When you arrive at the Buddhist temple, you must first worship the gods and Buddhas, after all, this is their territory.It is better to believe in what is there than to believe in what is not, and it is better to maintain some respect.

Jiang Ziyan and Lin Zhao honestly offered incense in front of the Buddha, and were guided by the little novice monk to another place. This Huguo Temple is very large and has beautiful scenery. It is located on the top of the mountain, and it is a beautiful scenery from afar.

So this Huguo Temple is not only a good place to burn incense, but also a good place to travel and see the scenery.

They wandered quietly in the monastery, secretly watching when Wu Yu came over.

Probably because of being too tired from walking, Jiang Ziyan felt a little tired, so the two of them sat down to rest.

Because of getting up early, Jiang Ziyan was a little sleepy.

He said: "Anyway, the front yard of this monastery is finished. I went to ask the little master for a fasting room, just in time for a rest. And I heard that the fasting room is in the backyard, so I just took the opportunity to take a look."

Lin Zhao wanted to get up and go with him, but Jiang Ziyan pressed him down.

"Don't forget the purpose of our trip today. That person hasn't come yet. You sit here and stare at me. I'll go get a fasting room first, and I'll come to you later."

Lin Zhao nodded, "Be careful."

Jiang Ziyan walked under the corridor on the right side of the main hall and turned right. There was a courtyard, and the backyard was through here. He found the little novice, paid money, and asked for a fasting room to rest.

The little novice who brought him here was very kind to him, because he had just generously donated money for sesame oil, and the incense was very strong, and the little novice was very happy.

After arriving at the backyard and finding the fasting room, the little novice gave a few instructions and went to the front yard to get busy.

Jiang Ziyan walked around the backyard. The back mountain was on the right side of the backyard, and the scenery was beautiful. He thought that since Lin Zhao was staring at the front yard, he might as well go around the back mountain. It would be worthwhile for him to climb so many steps early in the morning. come up.

Most of the pilgrims are in the front yard. After offering incense, there is a place for the pilgrims to eat and talk on the right side of the front yard. There are also guests in the wing rooms in the back yard, but the back mountain is very quiet and sparsely populated.

It should be that people often go down to collect herbs and so on. There is a small path going down here.

The slope of the back mountain is relatively gentle, so if you pay attention to it, there will be no danger.

Moreover, there is actually a lonely pavilion nearby. Standing here and looking into the distance, there is a feeling that it looks like a ridge on the side and a peak on the side, with different heights in the distance and near.

Jiang Ziyan hadn't been to such a fresh and green place for a long time. He walked down the path, wanting to go to the pavilion.

However, after walking for a long time, I found that there seemed to be someone not far from the front right.

When he got closer, he saw clearly that it was indeed a person.He is wearing the clothes in the temple, so he should also be the little novice monk in the temple.

He carried the bamboo basket, took a small hoe and dug a few times among the weeds, and then threw a grass-like thing into the basket.

Jiang Ziyan understood that this little novice was a little different, he was collecting herbs.

Jiang Ziyan walked further down, and asked aloud, "You little novice, why didn't you guide the pilgrims in the front yard, but ran to the back mountain to collect herbs? Could it be that they squeezed you out?"

The jobs of the young novice monks are different. Some guide pilgrims in the front yard, and some do sweeping in the backyard, but these are all okay, not heavy and tiring chores.

It's just that the little novice monk on the back mountain is carrying a basket on his back, and it's really pitiful to collect herbs so hard.

The little novice monk who was collecting medicine suddenly heard someone talking, he was so startled that he almost fell down.

Jiang Ziyan hurried over to support him, "Be careful, this is a hillside, don't fall."

The little novice turned his head to look at Jiang Ziyan, said with a cold expression, "Thank you." Then he continued to gather herbs.

Jiang Ziyan was stunned for a moment when he saw his appearance. This little novice looks very special. There is a red mole between his eyebrows. Although he has shaved his hair, he has fair skin, handsome appearance, and a cool temperament. , very much like the demon monk mentioned in the storybook.
