After receiving Wujue's confirmation, the Holy Emperor asked: "If there is indeed Chongyue's soul in her body, will this formation hurt her?"
Wu Jue Zhengse said: "If you interact with the formation, you will probably experience obvious discomfort, but it will not be life-threatening for a while. At that time, you only need to block the induction in time and take the person away from the formation."
The Holy Emperor nodded: "This will make me feel relieved."
"I immediately sent an order to stay at Dayun Temple for three days... General Li Yi and General Chang, who led the army on the left, have led their troops to Huainan Road. I will give me two hundred thousand to fight against the rebellion.
The soldiers fasted here for three days to pray for God's protection."
She said: "In this case, please invite the husband and the girl of the Chang family to come here and pray for General Chang with me."
This statement is reasonable and will not arouse any suspicion.
She first wanted to ensure that the girl could not be disturbed, follow her arrangements, and come to Dayun Temple smoothly.
The intention of the emperor's words was very clear. Cui Jing and others would know what to do and what not to do when they heard it.
At this time, the Holy Emperor looked at Mingluo: "Gu'an, I will leave this matter to you. Tomorrow morning you will go back to the city in person to Changfu, pass on my instructions, and pick up the Chang family girls to come here to pray."
Mingluo's thoughts froze for a moment, then he lowered his eyes and said "yes".
But she could notice that the Holy Book Emperor's eyes did not leave her body for a moment.
That gaze was calm and silent, but it gave her a very strong feeling of being scrutinized, as if all her thoughts and thoughts were seen through under that gaze.
Mingluo felt a chill all over his body, but his back was soaked with sweat in this late autumn.
After a moment, the voice sounded again: "Remember, there must be no mistakes in this matter."
"Yes, your Majesty, don't worry." Mingluo tried his best to sound calm and steady: "Luo'er understands."
Her aunt was reminding her that this matter was particularly important to her. The phrase "there must never be any mistakes" was intended to make her pay attention to anyone who might hinder this matter, and she... was also among them.
.
It turned out that this was the reason why her aunt still asked her to come here to listen to this matter tonight.
She finally understood now.
Unlike Governor Cui and Master Wujue, her role tonight is to see the situation and her own position clearly in this matter.
The aunt did not hide anything from her, which seemed to be a sign of trust in her. In fact, the aunt did not want to cause unnecessary trouble for her. Instead of letting her have unknown speculations in the dark and possibly hindering the matter secretly, the aunt chose to
In order to let her know all the plans, he put her completely above the surface, and even made her responsible for the matter, thereby eliminating all troubles.
The emperor wants to control the world instead of avoiding it, and he wants to use people instead of avoiding them, so the word control is particularly important, and her aunt has always been very good at controlling others.
At least, she could feel very clearly at this moment that she was under her aunt's control from beginning to end.
She was like a little ant in front of the emperor. The emperor had set a limit for her. How she crawled and explored within this limit, the emperor who looked down on all this would not care.
At this time, the emperor was reminding her not to cross the line.
This reminder is for the immediate matter, but also for the long term in the future, it is a reminder to her to "behave in peace" for a long time... So, is the aunt really starting to prepare for the return of "Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess"?
But what about her?
If that ridiculous delusion really comes true, if Chang Sui Ning really has traces of Princess Chongyue on her body, even just a little... then where is her place?
Is there really a "long-term" future for her?
"If it is true that Chongyue has returned, Master Wujue and Cui Qing, including Gu'an who traveled between Dayun Temple and the palace in these years, are all my heroes."
There was a hint of hope in the eyes of the Holy Emperor: "It's been twelve years... Whether God is willing to show mercy to me and Chong Yue, we will have the answer tomorrow."
Outside the tower, the sound of rain stopped at some point.
However, the starless and moonless night was still pitch black.
As the night progressed, the lights in many places in the temple were turned off, and the entire majestic and solemn temple was immersed in the damp and cold night, making it impossible to distinguish its original outline.
The lights in Abbot Wujue's room had already been turned off.
Although the rain has stopped, the wind has not stopped, and the closed window lattice creaks softly from time to time.
When there was another "creak" sound that didn't sound much different, cold wind rushed in.
Wujue sat up on the bed, as if about to get up and close the window.
However, before he could reach the window with his bare feet, someone suddenly grabbed his shoulders and back from the side and covered his mouth.
Just now there was a dark shadow that entered the room together with Feng.
The non-aggressive black shadow lowered his voice and said, "Master, don't make any noise, it's me."
Wujue nodded.
Cui Jing then took back her hand and took a step back, raising her hand to apologize.
Wujue said nothing, only closed the window and bolted it from the inside, then grabbed the young man's arm and pulled him to his bedside, making a silent "Follow me" gesture.
Afterwards, Wujue took the lead and knelt down, crawling towards the bottom of the bed in the darkness.
Cui Jing: "..."
Is this the enlightened monk in the eyes of the world?
Seeing Wujue reaching out a hand from under the bed and waving it towards him, Cui Jing climbed in without hesitation.
Fortunately, Wu Jue didn't want to invite him to lie down under the bed and talk. Otherwise, considering that one of them is too round and the other is too tall, the small bed would be too crowded.
There is a hidden secret passage under the bed that Wujue is best at setting up.
After Wujue opened the mechanism, he took Cui Jing into the secret passage. After the two of them entered, the mechanism closed behind them.
Cui Jing followed Wu Jue along the secret passage in the darkness for a short distance, and felt that the surrounding area became spacious. Wu Jue skillfully groped to the side, lit an oil lamp, and the surrounding lights lit up, revealing that it was a secret room.
Cui Jing's eyes first fell on the wine jars piled into a hill.
Wu Jue followed his line of sight and said matter-of-factly: "...They are all empty. Use them to guard against those with ears on the walls! Jars and jars all have the effect of blocking sound. Governor Cui must also know this.
Bar?"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Cui Jing nodded.
But as far as he knew, in order for the contents of the jar to have sound-absorbing effect, it needed to be built into the wall, and it was not possible to just place it randomly to get rid of the sound.
Besides, the smell of alcohol is so strong that the rat living here will probably be drunk all day long. When he goes out later, he will have to be careful to deal with the smell left behind.
Cui Jing had no intention of catching the abbot and abbot secretly hiding wine, so he explained his purpose: "Cui Jing is here for the Heavenly Lady Pagoda."
"I know, that's why I kept waiting for the destined person like Governor Cui to come." Wu Jue didn't bother to call himself a poor monk. He looked at the young man in front of him and said, "Master Cui is indeed here."
He sighed deeply, but his eyes gradually filled with smiles, and his voice was slightly hoarse: "When Governor Cui comes, I have the answer in my heart."
Facing those eyes that seemed calm, but filled with countless emotions, and still had a hint of inquiry, Cui Jing nodded: "Yes."
yes.
This word fell on Wu Jue Xin, and it took him a while to come back to his senses.
He seemed a little unable to stand, so he stepped back and slowly sat down against the cold stone wall, wiping his wet eyes with his big fat hand.
Just when Cui Jing was thinking about whether to say something, Wujue slapped his thigh, suddenly laughed, and sighed happily: "I knew I still have some skills!"
"When I meet Your Highness, I will look back and ask, now that she looks at Tian Jing, that old man or me, who is more powerful!"
Cui Jing: "The reason why the master set up this array in the first place was to prove this point with His Highness?"
Wujue: "That's right!"
This is of course a joke.
Cui Jing also sat cross-legged on the floor.
It was clearly a dark secret room, and the ground was full of dust, but the young man in black robes sitting down like this made Wujue feel that this secret room was quite luxurious.
Tsk, this kid is so expensive no matter where you stand.
Wujue put away his emotion at that moment and looked at the young man again, with more thoughts and inquiry in his eyes: "May I ask when Governor Cui confirmed it?"
"It was just a guess before, but it was really confirmed tonight."
"Can I hear how Governor Cui confirmed it?"
Cui Jing nodded and explained all the speculations he had made along the way, including what Wujue had mentioned to him before about Chang Sui Ning's facial expression changing.
"...Yes." Wujue said slowly: "The girl came to Dayun Temple after escaping from danger in Hezhou. I could see the slightest change at a glance."
But at that time, he only thought it was the change after the child's disaster, and did not think too much about it. Therefore, he only laughed and said with emotion, "Xiao Suining looks more and more beautiful."
"Since Governor Cui has confirmed it, why did you just... hide it from His Majesty?" Wujue asked tentatively.
The young man did not hesitate: "It is up to her to decide whether to speak out about this matter."
He didn't know what she was thinking, how she viewed the saint, but since she had been unable to reveal anything, she must have had her own plans or hadn't thought about it yet.
Wujue: "What you do is a crime of deceiving the emperor... You still dare to come to me, aren't you afraid that I will turn around and tell the saint to go?"
"This Resurrection Formation is a forbidden technique that has not been taught. Its method violates the balance of reincarnation of heaven and earth. The master once wanted to set up the formation in secret, but it was only after the saint discovered it that he was able to build the Dayun Temple. After the master insisted on setting up the formation, he fell seriously ill.
Two years, almost life-"
These are things you can see, but you can’t see them, or you have to pay more.
Cui Jing looked at Wujue with admiration in his eyes: "Master is the one who has sacrificed the most for this matter. If Cui Jing doesn't even believe in Master, no one can trust him."
Wujue let out a long breath and smiled: "Captain Cui really regards the matter of 'that girl' as his own business."
Cui Jing moved the corners of her mouth slightly, but did not deny it after all.
"You are right. This matter should be decided by herself. This has been my plan since I decided to set up this formation..." Wu Jue said in a low voice: "Your Highness is not reviving this time just to do something.
Whose minister, whose child... She just needs to be herself and do what she wants to do."
Speaking of this, Wujue looked at Cui Jing: "So, I lied to the saint from the beginning."
Cui Jing waited seriously for him to continue.
"This secret technique of resurrecting the soul is not without precedent... Someone in the Western Regions set up this formation a hundred years ago. The dead were able to return to their souls decades later, but they were burned to death as evil spirits shortly after."
"Back then, when my good friend found the broken ancient book in the Western Regions, he also inquired about this matter. However, in order to prevent the matter from being leaked, he erased all traces of the old rumors."
The friend he calls is Meng Lie.
"Back then, I had no intention of telling the saint that I wanted to set up an array to summon the soul for His Highness, but he was accidentally noticed by the saint... That's all."
It's just that he had some reservations and never told the saint the truth that this formation was very likely to come true. He didn't want the saint to have too much hope, lest he wouldn't be able to cover up the return of His Highness if it came true in the future.
To put it bluntly, he had long been prepared to part ways with the saint if His Highness returned.
But he was not sure in what capacity His Highness would come back and how many years he would have to wait before he could come back. He originally thought that he might not be able to wait until he died.
Unexpectedly, God would still be willing to show mercy to a man who was destined not to die a happy death.
"...If it weren't for that old man Tian Jing's nonsense, the saint wouldn't have noticed it so quickly! He was wandering around as soon as he came out of seclusion, he only knew how to read faces!" Wu Jue couldn't help but get angry when he said this: "I have been in seclusion for three times.
At the end of the year, I didn’t shut him up!”
These words are detrimental to merit, but he did it against nature, so he naturally has the qualifications to break the jar and smash it.
"Saints trust him... saints will believe whatever nonsense he says."
Wujue frowned and said: "Actually, I am not the only one who is secretly guarding your majesty. Your majesty also does not completely trust me... Back then, because there were some flaws in the old book that contained this secret technique, the saint used to secretly have people search for the book.
Because, after taking it away for a while, I suspected that I had also looked at the sky mirror."
Cui Jing: "So, the master just told the sage the method of entering the formation to test."
Wujue nodded.
This method is indirectly recorded in that ancient book. If he keeps silent and Tianjing remembers it, the saint will later know that he is deliberately concealing it, which is equivalent to not asking for trouble.
In the situation in the pagoda just now, he had tried to dispel the saint's speculation on the grounds that "the daughter of the Chang family is not of Ming and Li family blood", but the saint's heart is very strong. If he insists on denying it again, then he will say It doesn't make sense.
"Master, do you remember what 'she' saw when she first came to Dayun Temple and what you and I saw when we came out of the Tiannv Pagoda?" Cui Jing asked.
"Remember...I think it was because I accidentally interacted with the formation."
Cui Jing said: "She had already sensed this before she entered the tower at that time. If she enters the tower tomorrow, something will definitely happen."
Wujue was worried: "But this formation must be entered tomorrow... because no matter what method is used to avoid it, it will only confirm the saint's guess."
Cui Jing: "Master, do you have a way to deal with it?"
"My master knows that I like to cause trouble, so he once left something for me to protect me from the disasters caused by the formation... But this formation is an evil formation, and that thing is probably not very useful..."
While Wu Jue was thinking, he heard the young man in front of him speak: "Since there is no way to deal with it, this junior has a suggestion, I don't know if it is feasible -"
