"Donor, everything in the world has cause and effect. As long as you don't lose your true heart, you can clearly see the gains and losses in the world, and you can understand the principle of karma and retribution."
Xie Ningxia looked at the young monk and said, "Little monk, I find that you are not very old and you have a lot of truths to say. Doesn't your saying it still mean that you didn't say it?"
As soon as Xie Ningxia finished speaking, the young monk began to meditate again. No matter what Xie Ningxia said, the young monk stopped paying attention. Xie Ningxia also felt bored and wanted to leave. However, as soon as Xie Ningxia walked to the door, she heard the young monk say:
"Donor, instead of searching hard, it is better to feel with your heart. Maybe the person you are looking for is always by your side."
"How do you know I'm looking for someone? Tell me what else you little monk knows."
Xie Ningxia just kept staring at the little monk. Unexpectedly, he stopped talking at all. Forget it, if she doesn't talk tonight, Xie Ningxia will come back tomorrow. Xie Ningxia has many ways to deal with him.
Xie Ningxia walked to the door and saw Lu Yu, "Lu Yu, when did you come?"
It belongs to this world.
However, Xie Ning Xia felt relieved when Lu Yu said that he had just arrived, "Have you found any evidence?"
"No, Tang Guogong has never been to the temple. This means that he does not believe in Buddhism. The smell of sandalwood in his home should have been left by the person who poisoned him."
"Ah, doesn't this mean that my hard work this day has been in vain, and in the end it was all in vain."
"It's quite a discovery. I sent someone to investigate this kind of incense coming from the Western Regions. It's very difficult to buy this kind of spice in Kyoto. I can only go to the barbarian mansion where the barbarians live. I sent Gao Chen there but didn't buy it.
Said there is no such thing."
"It seems that it was sold to someone familiar, or someone asked a businessman traveling between the Central Plains and the Western Regions to bring it back."
Xie Ningxia felt that Lu Yu was looking at her, "What's wrong?"
"No, I think what you said makes sense."
"Right, I think what I said makes sense. By the way, what's going on with this eminent monk from the Western Regions? I think he's just a child!"
"You came to the mountain behind this temple just to meet this eminent monk from the Western Regions?"
"Well, I heard that he was very good-looking, so I came to take a look, but I didn't expect that he was just a child."
"According to what you said, you are also a child. I guess I should be about the same age as you."
Xie Ningxia forgot that she was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old child now, and she did not expect that the little monk was the same age as herself now.
"But why did this eminent monk from the Western Regions come to Beijing?"
"The previous eminent monk passed away. They believe in the reincarnation system in Buddhism. He was selected as the eminent monk of the Western Regions when he was very young. In recent years, the Western Regions have been relatively peaceful. Kumarajiva has reached his age again, so he came to Beijing to see the Holy Master.
"
"Oh, it turns out that this young monk's name is Kumara. You are meeting him in the palace today!"
Xie Ningxia and Lu Yu entered the city soon. The street was still full of vendors selling goods. When Xie Ningxia saw any novelty, she walked up to take a look. "Lu Yu, do you have your factor? I want to buy it," she said.
This." After saying that, Xie Ningxia picked up a bunch of candied haws from the vendor and handed it to Lu Yu.
Xie Ningxia took the candied haws and went to the next store. After a while, Xie Ningxia noticed a vendor selling decorations, "Lu Yu, look, those things look familiar!"
"It's like the furnishings in Tang Guogong's house, but the production is rough."
"You can see the roughness from this distance?"
Lu Yu walked towards the stall, and Xie Ningxia hurriedly followed, "Boss, are there any more exquisite ornaments among these?"
The vendor saw that Lu Yu was dressed in an extraordinary way and that he belonged to a noble family. He hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, but I didn't bring them here. I kept them all at home."
"Then take me to see it!"
As expected, this vendor lived in Manyi Mansion. As soon as he walked into his home, there were many ornaments from the Western Regions. Some were exquisite and some were relatively crudely made. Xie Ningxia took a closer look and said, "Boss, these are all imported from the Western Regions."
Did you come in?"
"Yes, yes, my guest, they are all treasures from the Western Regions. I wonder which ones my guest is interested in?"
Lu Yu walked into the vendor and asked, "Are there any other dignitaries from Beijing here to buy?"
The merchant saw that Lu Yu had no intention of buying, so he wanted to drive them away. Unexpectedly, Lu Yu directly took out the token and said, "I'm asking you now. If you don't answer honestly, you can only go to Zhao Prison to tell me.
"
When the vendor saw that the person coming was Prince Qing, he could only honestly take out the list of those who had bought goods from here. Xie Ningxia reached out and took them over and checked them one by one. Sure enough, the name of Tang Guogong was included.
"Do you have any impression of this person?"
"Yes, girl, this man is a frequent visitor to my place. He comes here every time I buy something new."
Xie Ningxia and Lu Yu looked at each other, "In addition to bringing back these ornaments from the Western Regions, will you bring anything else?"
"Sir, we are a small business. It shouldn't be illegal to bring other things. Our goods are strictly inspected when they come in. We don't dare to bring things that are not allowed to be sold in Kyoto!"
In the end, the clues were broken again, and the incense would definitely not be inspected and shipped to Kyoto, which meant that the murderer had other ways.
Xie Ningxia and Lu Yu walked to the gate of the palace, and Xie Ningxia finally reacted, "Lu Yu, the young monk probably didn't come to Beijing alone. Will he bring many people with him? And when did they arrive outside Beijing?"
"You mean the murderer might be Kumarajiva's bodyguard?"
"The smell of sandalwood comes from the Western Regions, so everything fits in." This chapter has been completed!
