The Prince and the Demon Monk [Rebirth]

There was silence on the cliff for a while, only the sound of water and wind roaring past, Liang Cheng held An Xiping's gradually cooling palm with one hand, put his other hand on his chest, and softly recited the mantra of passing away.

Yi Nian stood with his hands behind his back, silent, staring at Liang Cheng with an unclear expression.

Finally, Liang Cheng put away his palms, looked up at Yi Nian, and asked, "How is the situation in Beijing?"

Liang Cheng's expression was very calm, without any trace of grief, the distraught appearance just now seemed like a hallucination, his eyes darkened at a thought, and said: "Emperor Ming Yuan should have known about your being kidnapped, right now he is sending decent people to search everywhere. "

Liang Cheng nodded, and said: "After Xiping... was buried, I went back to the capital directly, went to the palace to face the saint, and said that I was intercepted by someone, and then managed to escape."

Yi Nian softly said "um", although Liang Cheng didn't mention Meng Liujun at all, he did this to match his rhetoric, but Yi Nian felt a short throbbing pain in his heart, he knelt down and glanced over On the side of Liang Cheng's neck, his eyes were gloomy. There was a fresh wound there, which had already scabbed over. It looked like a bite wound.

Meng Liujun...

These three words were crushed between his teeth by a single thought, and he suppressed all the bursting true energy in his body, and said: "I will not let Mr. Mengliu go, but now he is useful."

"I know." Liang Cheng answered quickly, too bluntly, as if he was covering up something. He lowered his eyes and said, "Senior brother, don't be embarrassed, the overall situation is the most important thing." After speaking, he picked up An Xiping and went to Go to the edge of the forest.

The scenery of this cliff is quite beautiful, there are fluffy weeds at the foot, with yellow flowers hanging down, a leeward rock beside the forest, a few wild bamboos protruding from the side of the rock, the bamboo branches are thin and the bamboo leaves are delicate, exuding a kind of leisurely feeling. Intrigued, Liang Cheng walked towards the bamboo and leaned An Xiping against the rock.

Yi Nian silently followed behind Liang Cheng. Seeing this, he pulled it out and picked it up, poured his true energy into it, and between cups of tea, a pit that could fit a person's size appeared on the ground. Liang Cheng thanked him, picked up An Xiping and put it in in.

The opponent's body was gradually covered by mud. Liang Cheng took one last look at An Xiping's dead face, grabbed a handful of mud, and sprinkled it on An Xiping's face. Finally, Liang Cheng never looked at the man who died for him for two lifetimes. gone.

I will definitely avenge you.

Liang Cheng promised softly in his heart, got up and looked at Yi Nian, and said, "Brother, let's go back."

Ganzhou brought two tan horses for the two of them, they looked like good horses at first glance, Liang Cheng took the reins and flew on the horses, his eyes swept over the young master Zhuosi standing silently behind them, thinking deeply.

Yi Nian also noticed Zhuo Si, so he asked, "Why are you here?"

Thinking about it with both hands raised, he bowed and said: "Back to the master, when the national teacher came to borrow manpower from the manor, the subordinates were about to tell the master that Wu Yang Hou left Beijing late at night, and he brought a pair of men and horses with him. It is really suspicious. Hearing that the national teacher wants to save people from Wu Yanghou, although his subordinates' sword skills are not as good as Cangshui Sword, but better than knowing oneself and knowing the enemy, so he recommends himself to save people."

"I think Marquis Wuyang went out of Beijing last night, and it must have something to do with the national teacher's rescue of people." Jusi finally said softly.

Scenes flashed in his mind, what Liuyun Feiyue said to him, the bite marks on the side of Liang Cheng's neck, An Xiping pretending to be Chongming, and that night after he silenced Chongming, Chongming appeared under the moonlight. With a dark smile, a line connects all the fragments, and one thought immediately makes everything clear.

Although I don't know how An Xiping, who was driven away by Liang Cheng long ago, got mixed up with Meng Liujun, and how he drew his sword to face each other, but with An Xiping's attachment to Liang Cheng, how could a person with such a thorough mind not guess What the hell happened last night.

It's just that he never imagined that Meng Liujun had other thoughts about Liang Cheng. Although he didn't know why An Xiping conspired with Meng Liujun, he couldn't let Meng Liujun force Liang Cheng, so he turned his back and rescued Liang Cheng.

Even though he didn't like An Xiping, and the other party even alienated his relationship with Liang Cheng, but thinking about it at this moment, he still felt a little grateful to An Xiping.

Yi Nian nodded to Zhuo Si, and asked Gan Zhou to clean up the mess, and flew back to the capital with Liang Cheng.

Before the two set out for a long time, Liang Cheng suddenly stopped, frowned and said: "Although I look like this, I am not injured, unlike a person who escaped from the murderer, the emperor is suspicious, brother, you go to me... ..."

"Brother!" Yi Nian interrupted Liang Cheng's proposal in a deep voice, his dark pupils narrowed slightly, and was about to veto it, when Liang Cheng shook his head with a resolute expression and said, "Brother, I know you can't bear it, if I didn't do it myself It would be different, I wouldn't ask you to do that."

"Do it!" Liang Cheng stretched out his hand and ordered in a cold voice.

This is the first time that Liang Cheng has shown such an indisputable appearance in front of Yi Nian, his whole person suddenly sharpened, his brows and eyes, which were always clear and soft in the past, are like layers of frozen lake, no longer soft and light, transparent With determination and lingering.

Yi Nian was silent, finally, he pulled out the sword at his waist, turned his face away, raised the sword and swung it towards Liang Cheng's arm, the feeling of the sword cutting through the cloth and skin was never so vivid, Yi Nian's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he clenched his hands tightly The hilt of the sword was about to be retracted, but someone grabbed the blade and pulled it forward. When he thought about it, he was horrified, and when he turned around, he saw Liang Cheng grabbing the tip of the sword with his bare hands and sending it to his right collarbone.

"you!"

Liang Cheng let go of the tip of the sword, stepped back, and said with a smile, "Don't be afraid, senior brother. I have avoided the main line. Since I want to play a trick, then I should act more like it."

What Liang Cheng said was right, but he still couldn't make himself happy when he thought about it, as if a sword had been stabbed into his chest, his flesh and blood blurred for a while, if it wasn't for Meng Liujun's arrangement, why would he let Liang Cheng suffer like this!

He has always been conceited and arrogant, he holds everything in his hands, there is no omission, the iron wall is impregnable, and there is no flaw, but in just one day, he has repaid the hatred and regret that he has never repaid in the past, and he never thought he would have. And powerlessness, and the moment when he thought Liang Cheng was stabbed to death, all thoughts were lost.

"Okay, it's not too late." Liang Cheng shook the reins and walked away. In order to be realistic, Liang Cheng let the wound go untreated, and stared fiercely at the few drops of bright red that fell on the ground with a single thought, with a twinkle in his eyes. The layer of blood mist dissipated again and again, like an illusion, he raised his horsewhip and caught up with Liang Cheng.

Due to blood loss, Liang Cheng's face became a little pale, and he was jolted immediately, causing the wound to throb with pain. Noticing Yi Nian's gaze, Liang Cheng let go of his brows that were slightly frowned because of the pain, and turned to say: "Senior brother, let Mr. Jusi approach you." What is Mengliu-jun for? Then Mr. Zhuosi should not be a simple luthier, right? "

Yi Nian didn't tell Liang Cheng Zhuo Si's true identity, he thought it was unnecessary before, but now that Liang Cheng asked, Yi Nian briefly explained the origin of Zhuo Si.

"So, he is his teacher to recover the Han family?" Liang Cheng said again: "I heard that the Second Prince often visits the Xifengyuan recently, but for the sake of thinking about you?"

One thought did not deny it, "Thinking is very popular with the second prince."

Confirming the speculation in his heart, Liang Cheng said bluntly: "Seeing that the sixth prince is in the limelight, Yu Yusheng, while the second prince has been reprimanded by the emperor several times, senior brother is planning to let Meng Liujun and Jusi encourage the second prince to rebel?"

Yi Nian sighed in his heart, and said: "You guessed right, Mr. Meng Liu has been placing people in the army, and Jiang's Wu Xun started his career, although he will no longer intervene in military affairs, but there are still some connections, but the risk is too high. If the second prince will act rashly, the last straw is now missing. As long as the second prince is caught in a dilemma, coupled with the instigation of Jusi and Meng Liujun, the second prince will jump the wall in a hurry, and then release the news to the sixth prince. I will not miss this good opportunity, and I will definitely use this matter to take advantage of the chaos to get rid of Emperor Ming Yuan."

Liang Cheng was startled, "How can you be sure that the Sixth Prince will definitely attack? It's killing the king and brother. If you miss it, you will only die. What's more, Emperor Ming Yuan controls the imperial army and the dragon guards. How can it be so easy to call the Sixth Prince?" Succeeded... wait! Unless the imperial army... no, no, the sixth prince has no way to reach out to the imperial army, could it be... from the dragon guard!"

"It's a hundred miles away from the commander of Longwei," Yi Nian replied, "I also got a secret report from the Eight Desolation League last night. A month ago, the Eight Desolation League stopped a business. This business started half a year ago. The destination is In Shanxi, even the original leader doesn't know, Bailizi has been operating secretly."

Liang Cheng was slightly taken aback, "Shanxi...could it be related to the case of the Zhan family?"

Yi Nian: "That's right. Nine months ago, there was a severe drought in Shuozhou, and the central government allocated food and grass for disaster relief. However, civil unrest broke out in Shuozhou. Bailijie was ordered to investigate the case. The last batch of Shanxi officials fell. According to the news of Bushige, this person is actually a hypocrite. He is upright on the surface, but in fact he is greedy and insatiable. He cannot be innocent. After seeing the account book of the Zhanzhou Order, I remembered this and sent someone to secretly investigate As expected, it was related to Bailijue. He seized the evidence of Huang Zekai's corruption and threatened him to smuggle ironware out of the customs, and then asked Bailizi to use the water transport of the Eight Desolation League to mix the ironware into ordinary ship darts. Do it up and down, and muddle through."

"The sixth prince's grandfather, Tang Hexuan, is now in charge of the household department, and Lin Zhihe is working under him. Recently, the sixth prince is in the limelight, so I asked him to join the sixth prince and disclose the account book to him. Bailijie was caught by the sixth prince. From the beginning to the end, I had to secretly become a party of the Sixth Prince."

"The assassination against you back then was actually arranged by Bailijie. At the beginning, Bailizi was chasing and killing Lu Chongtai. When he accidentally discovered that we were taking in the orphan girl of the Zhan family, Bailijie lost an inch, so he tried to silence her. .”

Liang Cheng: "The last straw that brother said is that the case of the Zhan family and my assassination should be pinned to Prince Rang?"

Liang Cheng's guess is also well-founded, because the person who assassinated them at that time had the symbol of the Jiang family on his body. Although the Jiang family later found out the house thief, in the eyes of the emperor, the suspicion still could not be removed.

"Junior Brother is still so perceptive," Yi Nian laughed, "I originally planned to act after the Buddha's Birthday Ceremony, but I didn't expect Meng Liujun to plan to assassinate the Queen Mother..." Yi Nian paused, and then asked: "Junior Brother, what is An Xiping going to do?" what's going on?"

Liang Cheng's expression darkened, and he said: "The empress dowager's adulterer was actually... Xiping's father, heh, so I still want to call him uncle..."

It's really a trick of good fortune.

Liang Cheng took a deep breath, the horse ran fast, and the oncoming strong wind filled his mouth, Liang Cheng couldn't help but coughed, which immediately affected the wound in his lungs, he held back the astringency in his eyes, and continued: "Their family is like the Queen Mother. Silently, I have been hiding in Tibet for a long time, but I still cannot escape death in the end, Xiping has no choice but to infiltrate into the palace, if only I could find out sooner..."

Yi Nian Mo Ran, it seems that An Xiping approached Mr. Meng Liu and planned together to avenge the extermination of the clan at the Buddha's Birthday Ceremony.Seeing that the corners of Liang Cheng's eyes were slightly red, he couldn't help but feel depressed. His junior brother, he might never forget An Xiping in this life, even though he knew that Liang Cheng had no other thoughts about An Xiping, it was just a pure love between master and servant. He still finds it hard to let go.

As if to prevent Liang Cheng from thinking about An Xiping again, he thought: "Once the uterus of the second prince and the sixth prince change, Li Duqiu will use the name of King Qin to control the palace. Prince, I became a monk for the sake of Daqi Sheji, and I will let the dark chess in the court contact the people who followed you, and then the ministers will support you, and you will inherit the Datong, and it will be justified."

In the end, these two had already discussed before, Liang Cheng thought of Meng Liujun, frowned and said, "Have you told Meng Liujun about this?"

"Of course not," Yi Nian said slightly, "He always thought I wanted to sit in that chair."

Liang Cheng immediately felt relieved. With what Meng Liujun did to him, he didn't believe that the other party would dare to let him ascend the throne unless he died. However, Liang Cheng really did not intend to let Meng Liujun go. Thinking of this, he couldn't help rolling his eyes. dark.
