Chapter 73

The facts were exactly as Di Renjie expected, even though he reported the snake spirit's conspiracy to the emperor, he still failed to dissuade the emperor from his pilgrimage.

Di Renjie had no choice but to order Qianniuwei General Huan Bin to strengthen his vigilance to ensure that the security of Hanguang Temple would not be a problem.

Late at night, Di Renjie's mansion
"Yuanfang, Ruyan, let's go to Hanguang Temple together tomorrow!" Di Renjie said.

Since he couldn't persuade the emperor, he could only do his best to investigate the hidden dangers in Hanguang Temple.

And the reason why he didn't mention Shen Youzhi was not because he couldn't trust the other party, but because Shen Youzhi's identity was rather embarrassing.

The only doubt in Di Renjie's heart disappeared with Ruyan's words.

Doubt once is prudence, doubt all the time is suspicion.

Di Renjie was an official to Zaifu, so of course he was not a person who was suspicious of everything.

"Worry, you have a special status and you are not suitable to participate in this matter. Just wait for our news here." Di Renjie explained to Shen Youzhi.

Shen Youzhi nodded, expressing his understanding.

His current identity is a hero of the rivers and lakes, and unlike Ruyan, he also has the identity of Di Renjie's niece. He has nothing to do with the court, he is just a loose warrior in the rivers and lakes, and he is really not suitable to participate in this kind of royal ceremony.

"My lord, why is the emperor unwilling to cancel the trip to Hanguang Temple?" Li Yuanfang was still a little confused, not understanding why the emperor was so stubborn.

Di Renjie sighed, "Yuan Fang, you don't understand the emperor.

She is a person who would rather bend than bend, and will never be threatened by others.

Moreover, the whole court has been preparing for this trip to Hanguang Temple for a long time, if it is canceled suddenly, it will not only damage the prestige of the court, but also the emperor."

Di Renjie didn't say anything about the latter.

But Li Yuanfang had already understood a little bit: if the emperor canceled his scheduled itinerary because of a few small towns, not only would the court's face be gone, even the emperor's own face would be damaged.

Even if the world didn't say it, most of them would think that she was timid and cowardly.

"Brother Yuanfang, according to Xiaomei's last words, Shining Spirit will most likely appear in Hanguang Temple." Shen Youzhi said suddenly: "I have seen his martial arts, and I can practice with you later."

Although he and Shining only played against each other for a short time, it is not a problem to learn three or four points.

"Since that's the case, I'll trouble Brother Shen!" Li Yuanfang replied.

Although he was born in Jianghu, he has followed Di Renjie for many years, and his mentality has changed. Now what he values ​​most is not the martial arts contest of fighting alone, but his own guard duty.

If you can understand the martial arts of Shining in advance, it will undoubtedly ensure the safety of Lord Di and the emperor.

After that, everyone went down to prepare separately, and the short night passed quickly.

The next day, Di Renjie and the three rushed to Hanguang Temple early.

As for Shen Youzhi, it was rare for him to be free, and he could take a short rest.

Most importantly, he knew that Di Renjie, Li Yuanfang, and Ruyan would not be able to return until at least the day after tomorrow.

Today they will definitely check the monks in the temple day and night, in order to find the snake spirit killer hidden in the temple.

According to the development of the plot, tonight Di Renjie will find out that Yi Rongcheng's blood spirit subordinates are many, and then Li Yuanfang and Shining will meet for the first time.

Then the Shining Golden Cicada escaped from its shell, and returned to Hanguang Temple after getting rid of Li Yuanfang's tracking, and chose to "rescue him" because of the benevolence of a thought.

And Di Renjie will also become suspicious because of this, and he will take the initiative to be held hostage by Shining, and take the opportunity to let him go.

In the end, there is the famous scene. Facing the emperor's accusation and Wu Sansi's downfall, Di Renjie and Zhang Jian's yin and yang, turned Wu Sansi around—

"The king of Liang is a great talent, with a clear mind, he is born for the world."

Therefore, Di Renjie and his party will not return home for at least two days.

Shen Youzhi can also take advantage of this gap to issue action instructions to the forces under his command.

Soon after the Hanguang Temple assassination case, Yuan Tiangang should be out of trouble. After that, Di Renjie will learn about the miracle of Luohe from the emperor, and then he will go to Liuzhou by the emperor's order to destroy the snake spirit rebels.

And Shen Youzhi had to precisely stagger this period of time, and take advantage of the two to three months when Di Renjie was far away from the capital, mobilize his troops and hide in the capital and surrounding areas, just in case.

Two days later, Di Renjie, Li Yuanfang, and Ruyan finally returned to the mansion from Hanguang Temple.

After returning, Di Renjie immediately called Shen Youzhi to discuss the details of Hanguang Temple's assassination case with them.

By the way, he also told Shen Youzhi what happened in Hanguang Temple in the past two days.

Sure enough, the development of things was almost the same as in the original drama, and Di Renjie finally let Shining go.

"The Shining Spirit was supposed to assassinate him, why did he come to rescue him?" Shen Youzhi asked pretending to be puzzled.

"I can't figure this out either." Li Yuanfang said: "With Shining's martial arts, if you try to assassinate under such circumstances, it is absolutely impossible to miss!"

He has already fought against Shining, and although he is slightly better, if he wants to kill Shining, it will be difficult to win without one or two hundred moves.

Therefore, Li Yuanfang has an absolutely clear understanding of Shining's martial arts.

Moreover, he and Di Renjie carried out on-site restoration together, and confirmed that the "Swallow Dang" launched by Shining was not aimed at the emperor, but to intercept the "snake-shaped dart" launched by another assassin.

The others were puzzled, but Di Renjie had already guessed in his heart.

He took out the wooden card given to him by Shining, and said, "I guess, the answers to these questions are hidden in this wooden card."

"Wooden sign?"

Ruyan, who had been silent all this time, looked at the sign in Di Renjie's hand suspiciously.

Shen Youzhi also cast a "perplexed" look.

Di Renjie nodded and continued: "This is Shining's wooden sign, representing his identity.

The word 'Wen Zhong' engraved on it should be his name. "

Li Yuanfang suddenly said: "Xing Ling's name is Wen Zhong."

Shen Youzhi also asked at the right time: "Then what's his last name?"

"His surname is Hui!" Di Renjie said with certainty.

"How did your lord know that?" Shen Youzhi continued to be a curious baby.

Hearing this, Di Renjie pointed to the strange snake engraved on the wooden sign and said, "The scorpion is originally a poisonous snake, and it is also the name given by the emperor to the descendants of the rebellious Li surname."

The curious baby Shen Youzhi was "surprised" and said, "You mean, Shining is a descendant of Li?"

Yuan Fang on the side was a little depressed, feeling that Shen Youzhi had taken away her job.

"It turns out that Shining Spirit's name is Hui Wenzhong!" Ruyan suddenly realized.

"But it's not right." Li Yuanfang thought about something again, and asked: "The descendants of the Li surname have a sworn feud with the emperor, not to mention that the Shining Spirit has joined the snake spirit, how can it save the emperor?"

Although Li Yuanfang's words are the same as those in the original play, Shen Youzhi still couldn't help but slander: Yuanfang!Aren't you also surnamed Li?If you say that, don’t you also talk to the emperor?
