Aggrieved Fish Sprite

Monk Yuanzhi is a wandering monk.

The only belongings I have with me are a string of beads, an alms bowl, and some dried herbs.

He was so poor that he couldn't even put money in his sleeves, because there were two holes in the sleeves.

"The news of Fengxing Pavilion is not cheap, how much did the master spend?"

Mo Li looked at the old monk, doubts still in his heart.

Speaking of the second head of Shimo Shanzhai, Yan Cen's identity is questionable.

Yan Cen was originally the second son of Qi Emperor Lu Zhang, and he was the same mother and younger brother of the prince.Although none of these princes in the Qi Dynasty had a good life, they were afraid of comparison in everything. Compared with Yan Cen, who was starved to death after suffering so much from being blinded by others, they were as sweet as squatting in a honeypot.

As soon as Yan Cen was born, he was almost dropped to death by his father.

According to the crown prince, Mrs. Lu at that time and later Empress Ning came from the Ning family in Northern Xinjiang. This was the residence of General Huai Yi that even Mo Liyou had heard of.He once guarded the northern frontier and made great achievements. Even when Qi and Chu were in turmoil, he still performed his duties faithfully and repelled the army of barbarians who took advantage of the chaos and went south.

One of the worst things Old General Ning did in his life was probably mistaken when he was looking for his son-in-law.

He married his daughter to a young talent in the northern Xinjiang army. As a result, this man was ambitious. Taking advantage of the mutual suspicion between the monarchs and ministers of the Chu Dynasty, he used all means to eliminate dissidents, and finally took control of the military. live.

When Yan Cen was born, Lu Zhang was only a courtier of the Chu Dynasty, but already in power, the loyal servants of the Ning family desperately snatched the baby and sent it to a temple in a border town for foster care.Years later, Prince Lu Jie found out about the temple, but Yan Cen had already left.

Therefore, the monks in the temple knew about Yan Cen's life experience.

If they are unreliable, the Ning family will not entrust their children easily.

Even if they really don't know, when the former prince and now Emperor Yongchen sent someone to look for him, the monks should know.

Emperor Yongchen thought that Yan Cen had disappeared from the temple, but that was not the case. According to Shimo Village, Yuan Zhi, a wandering monk, would go to the mountain every year to collect herbs and bring them a cure for their headaches. He was someone they respected a lot. .It can be seen that the temple and the Ning family are well aware of Yan Cen's current situation, but they don't interfere much.

Just because of this, Mo Li has a good impression.

Think about the descendant of the Chu Dynasty royal family met in Qinghu Town, that child named Huzi, who doesn’t understand anything, is no different from ordinary country people’s dolls, but the last person who protects him still has the idea of ​​​​restoring the country .It is obviously a predicament of no money, no one, and precarity. What kind of Spring and Autumn dream?

Restoring the country is empty talk, and that loyalty might as well be used to find a way to let the children spend their lives safely.

The people behind Yan Cen obviously didn't have any unrealistic hopes for Yan Cen, otherwise he wouldn't be allowed to stay in Shimo Village. After all, it was a bandit village, which would be a hindrance to his reputation.

Yan Cen's martial arts is mainly on hidden weapons, which is related to his weak physique, and he can't learn anything else.Although he looked gloomy and not talkative, he was not full of hostility, nor did he have any resistance to the monk Yuanzhi who found Shimoshan, and only concealed the fact that he had known him for a long time.Everyone in the Shimo Village believed that Master Yuan Zhi was kind and benevolent. When Yan Cen fell ill, the head master would count on his fingers when the wandering monks would come to the village.

Mo Li would not have been suspicious of Yuan Zhi, but when the old monk came, he directly named Shi Moshan and Yan Cen, and even mentioned buying news from Fengxing Pavilion without hesitation.

I am grateful to the doctor for saving my child. Would ordinary people do this?Of course not, just because Meng Qi and Meng Qi met a group of guys who wanted to cut off the dragon's veins in Shimoshan. The leader, Taoist Sang, actually knew Meng Qi, and even exposed Meng Qi's identity as the former national teacher.

Yuan Zhi probably chased after Meng Qi after he bought the news and knew clearly that Meng Qi was going in this direction.

Mo Li is more concerned about the news that this old monk has no property, what will he use to buy Fengxing Pavilion?

Could it be that news was exchanged for news, Meng Qi's identity was exchanged, and there was a conflict with the Jianghu people under King Wu's command at Shimo Mountain?

Mo Lifeng's eyebrows were tightly frowned, and Monk Yuan Zhi took a step back, and hurriedly lowered his eyes and recited the Buddha's name:

"Amitabha, monks don't tell lies. The old monk has traveled all over the world and has seen a lot. He has dealt with Fengxing Pavilion in his early years. Money is something outside the body. Even though the six senses are clean, he is still trapped by it. When he occasionally treats others, he lacks medicine and medicine. It is also common for news to go to Fengxing Pavilion to exchange some copper coins. This time, I owe Fengxing Pavilion an extra debt."

The ink carp groaned silently.

The old monk Yuan Zhi smiled wryly, and said bluntly: "The person who is accompanied by a doctor has an unusual status, and I don't talk too much."

Mo Li originally wanted to say that Meng Guoshi, who was traveling with him, had left long ago, so as to send away those who were interested in the former Guoshi, but the gerbil could not always lie in his arms and sleep, and the monk Yuanzhi followed Fengxing. With such acquaintance with the pavilion, he would soon know about the fact that a certain person was ostentatiously passing through the market half a day ago wearing a cloth of a few taels of silver, so Mo Li swallowed his words back, and changed his words: "Master, you want to find Brother Meng?"

Monk Yuan Zhi continued to smile wryly and nodded.

Mo Li sized him up and said after a while, "Master is an outsider, and he doesn't want power, why should he bother himself?"

Yuan Zhi sighed, clasped his hands together and said: "The doctor heals the sick and saves people. Yu Yancen has nothing to ask for. Both the old monk and the Ning family are very grateful. Originally, the old monk shouldn't have come, but the Qi court changed..."

Although the identity of Meng Qi, the former national teacher, was scary, he did nothing when he went to Shimo Mountain Village. Strictly speaking, the revenge for the collapse of the Chu Dynasty could not be blamed on Yan Cen. The fault of the Ning family was at most It can be said that no flag was erected to openly oppose Qi Emperor Lu Zhang that day.

After Lu Zhang ascended the throne, the Ning family did not follow suit.

Maybe the son-in-law became the emperor, and it was a great joy to put it in another house, but in the Qi Dynasty, the existence of General Huai Yi was very embarrassing.The Ning family didn't get a reward, and they only got a flimsy award for defeating the barbarians. After a few years, because of the suspicion of Emperor Qi, they were transferred from northern Xinjiang to the southwestern border to guard, and the old department was forcibly dismantled.

If it wasn't for the great reputation of Old General Ning and his reputation among the people, if it wasn't for Lu Zhang's appearance of respecting his ministers out of face, the Ning family might have been imprisoned for questioning.

A poor boy who has taken advantage of the power of the Yue family to soar into the sky will not be grateful for the help of the Yue family back then, but will look down on the Yue family instead.

There are too many conflicts between the Weng and the son-in-law.

In addition to Yan Cen's matter, Empress Ning died in depression, and the general who held the military power was jealous of the emperor's opponent.

"Actually, the Ning family is already ready for rebellion." Old monk Yuan Zhi suddenly said something surprising.

Mo Li was taken aback for a moment, then thought of Yan Cen, felt something was wrong and shook his head secretly.

"It's for self-protection, so we have to fight back." Monk Yuan Zhi sighed, "If the crown prince dies of illness, the Ning family will not be spared, and Emperor Qi will definitely attack the Ning family. Although it will not be obvious, it is difficult to guard against it." For this reason, my brothers and sisters have all left the temple and headed to Xuanchuan Pass."

Xuanchuan Pass is the southwestern frontier fortress where the Ning family is currently stationed.

Mo Li's heart skipped a beat, and he vaguely sensed something.

However, he is really not familiar with the struggle of the world's great powers, and he didn't grasp that idea.

——The fat mouse in the doctor's arms fell into deep thought.

"It turns out that among the prince's so-called not being able to die and not daring to die, there is still the level of the Ning family."

As an outsider who has nothing to do with himself, Mo Li feels more and more that it is not easy for Prince Lu Jie to live.

"Thus, the doctor not only saved Yan Cen, but actually saved Ning's family. He stopped the war and stopped the flames, saved the people in the southwest, and gave the people of the world a chance to breathe. He is a miracle doctor who can help the world."

The ink carp sidestepped to avoid, not being bowed by Monk Yuan Zhi.

"Master's words are too serious. I just do my best to cure diseases and save people. Other things are just coincidences. I don't deserve this praise."

Yuan Zhi didn't know, Meng Qi heard Mo Li's heart beat a little faster.

The gerbil bet the doctor's ears were a little red, and it poked its head out from the ink carp's collar.

"However, since the Ning family was able to hide Qi Emperor Lu Zhang and raise Yan Cen to adulthood, you all have a way to avoid Jin Yiwei. Master martial arts are strong, and the master's brothers are not ordinary people. The Ning family may not only have rebellion There is one way to go, why..."

Mo Li was so happy that he lost his mind without a few words of praise from Monk Yuan Zhi. He felt that the rebellion of the Ning family was very strange.

Lu Zhang has been suppressed and weakened for many years, and the military power in the hands of the Ning family has been negligible. Xuanchuan Pass is definitely not the old general Ning's final say. Lu Zhang will send civilians and generals of the same level to contain the Ning family. Can the officers and soldiers of Xuanchuan Pass be successfully subdued? Both are two theories, and treason is definitely the next strategy.

Yuan Zhi sighed softly: "The doctor doesn't know, three hundred miles away from Xuanchuan Pass is the territory of the King of Heaven."

King Tianshou occupies a mountainous and miasmatic land in the southwest. Before the Chu Dynasty, there were some small countries and tribes. Counties and counties of the Central Plains Dynasty were once counted 1000 years ago, and then they were divided due to turmoil.

It took the Chu Dynasty several decades to re-govern and subdue the three counties in the southwest. When it was in the hands of the Qi Dynasty, the hearts of the people were devastated within a few years, and it happened that another king was born.

The monarchs and officials of the Qi Dynasty looked down on the three counties in the southwest at all.

The two sides have fought each other in recent years, but the scale is very small, and the court has no money.

Even if Qi generals are determined to make contributions to encircle and suppress the rebellion, there is nothing to do with the lack of food, grass and armaments.

"There is a change in the southwest. General Ning discovered that King Tianshou has been planning to seize Xuanchuan Pass. Once Jin Yiwei is ordered to get rid of Ning's family, Xuanchuan Pass will be in chaos." Monk Yuanzhi said worriedly, "The spies of King Tianshou who are hiding in the city and The people they bought took the opportunity to seize the pass, and after Xuanchuan pass there was no natural danger, the flames of war swept across the Central Plains immediately."

The ink carp gasped.

It turns out that in order to prevent the King of Heaven, the Ning family secretly tracked down and eradicated the spies in the city. This is a game.

If Lu Zhang, the emperor of Qi, intervened, and the Ning family was attacked by enemies, they could neither abandon their officials to save their lives and escape, nor could they kill them at will, they could only rebel.In this way, all those who oppose the Ning family and those sent by the court to contain the Ning family can be locked up first, turning the darkness into light, and using the power of thunder to eradicate the enemy troops hiding in the city.

If the Ning family wants to defend Xuanchuan Pass, they can only bear the stigma first.

However, since the Ning family rebelled, Lu Zhang must be furious, and even ordered people to suppress the rebellion.

In the front, there was the king granted by heaven, and in the back, there was the army of the Qi Dynasty.

Xuanchuan Pass is in danger, and Ning's family is in danger.

No wonder Monk Yuan Zhi said just now that Mo Li saved the prince, it was to stop the war and put an end to the flames of war, to give the people of the world a chance to breathe.

No wonder the clinkingly poor Monk Yuan Zhi went into debt to buy the news of Fengxing Pavilion.The situation in the Southwest is in dire straits. The Qi Dynasty directly caused a palace coup. Unexplainably, he appeared in Taijing and got involved in the palace coup. Will Meng Qi, the former national teacher, serve for the three kings of the Chu Dynasty? What exactly does he want to do—— If you don't understand, I'm afraid everyone won't be able to fall asleep.

Meng Qi's martial arts reached the peak again, so Yuan Zhi had no choice but to come here.

"It turns out that there are such reasons, it's hard to be a master."

Mo Li cupped his hands in salute, Monk Yuan Zhi smiled wryly and said, "Amitabha, I wonder if the doctor can introduce me, let me talk to Teacher Meng Guo."
