Gua Fei in the world

Chapter 1630 Tubo Ghost City

Yu Zhi told Wen Tingzhan their whereabouts, but Wen Tingzhan sat on the edge of the bed as motionless as a mountain, his dark eyes could not see the depth.

Yu Zhi and Wen Tingzhan looked at each other, and then staggered their eyes and sighed quietly: "In the 15th year of Xinghua, Xiaguan Chuchu was deployed to Tubo. Xiaguan was fond of Tibetan studies since he was a child, and he wanted to fight hard, but did not think of……"

But he didn't expect that Yu Zhi, who was still a bit young and vigorous, came to Tubo at that time. He knew that his superior, who was promoted to Yuan Tongzhi in the same year as him, would be difficult to deal with, but he didn't expect that Du Shuai and Yuan Tongzhi would be difficult to deal with. The court envoy had already been in a mess. He had just arrived, and the envoy hosted a banquet for him. During the banquet, he was extraordinarily gentle and considerate of his subordinates. The more so, the more defensive he became.

The court envoy sent a lot of beauties and treasures to test him openly and secretly, but he refused all of them, again and again, and finally angered the court envoy, who had passed the martial arts exam. For example, he has been in charge of Tubo arrests and thefts. At that time, the Xuanzheng Yuan received a case in which an important Buddhist vessel was stolen from Zhefeng Temple, which was second only to Zhigong Temple.

In Zhefeng Temple, he was careful again and again, because the belief in Tubo is very strong, and the status of monks is especially high. Losing things in a place like Zhefeng Temple is tantamount to robbing the royal family of the imperial capital, and what is lost is Buddhist treasures. One can imagine.But no matter how careful he was, he was unfamiliar with the place after all, how could he resist the envoy who had been a prefect in Tubo for six years and was now promoted?

The envoy did not know what tricks he had used, he bribed a young novice from Zhefeng Temple to put drugs in his food, and when he woke up, he actually raped the female pilgrims who came to worship at the Buddhist gate...

If this matter was publicized, he could be sentenced to death. That year, his eldest grandson had just come into the world, and his life was just at the time when he was flexing his muscles. He complained and went to Dushuai's mansion for help, only to know that Dushuai He Yuanshi turned out to be the same as a raccoon dog.At that time, there were only two paths before him, either his reputation would be ruined, and even his descendants would not be able to hold their heads high because of his incident, or he would surrender.

In the face of life and death, he lowered his head.

The envoy is also a good person. He knows that he is a bit stubborn. If he blindly uses this excuse to threaten him, he can bear it once, twice or three times. If there are too many times, he will eventually explode, so not only never Mentioning this matter, and never letting him do anything against his will, the only thing he has to do is to be himself, the unselfish stubbornness that has accumulated from the past.

At the beginning, he didn't know what the intention was, but later more and more people came to him, wanting to investigate the two above him through him, and he realized the good intentions of these two people.They kept him because they valued his official reputation. If a place has a good official reputation and there is no one who does practical things for the people, then it will not be far from the collapse of this place. He is their signboard and the one they buried. under the umbrella.

And because every time he helped these two people to cover up, he felt guilty and suppressed and couldn't confide in others, even close relatives. In order not to drive himself crazy, he chose to go to Zhigong Temple, but by chance, he got the eyes of Master Qieren. edge.In this way, it has become a living sign. Those who have returned without success have not doubted him because he is someone that even Master Qiren looks up to.

"In the past few years, they have been going smoothly, and the people sent by the court many times have returned home because of me." Yu Zhi closed his eyes and breathed heavily, "They promised to lower the official, as long as the lower official cooperates with them to let the Lord be buried in Tubo, Then let go of the official freedom and transfer away from Tubo in June next year, and we will not owe each other from now on."

"You know so many secrets about them, do you think the two of them can really forgive you?" Wen Tingzhan said flatly.

Yu Zhi shook his head: "Since I got on their thief ship, the officials have never thought of retreating completely, but it is better to die in front of the Buddha and take the women from the people than to die in their assassination. At least I can keep my reputation, my children and grandchildren." Descendants..." At this point, Yu Zhi glanced at his son with an angry face, and patted his shoulder lightly, "They can also live without being judged because of me."

"Master Hou, I can say what I have to say. I have said everything that needs to be said. I can cooperate with Lord Hou. I just hope that Lord Hou can let the official leave a whole body like Huang Jian." Yu Zhi looked at Wen Ting pleadingly. Cham.

"Huang Jian's death is probably the most dreamed death of all treacherous officials after failure." Wen Tingzhan chuckled, "But you are not a traitor. I have checked your resume. You have been an official for more than ten years. From a county magistrate to the fourth-rank Xuanzhengyuan Tongzhi, he has indeed done a lot of practical things for the people. But you are no longer a loyal minister, you deceive the king and become the minion of two black sheep. But you I should thank these two people for valuing your reputation. During the five and a half years in Tubo, you have contributed a lot to teaching and making troubles, but you have become more restrained than before. You have never even taken bribes from merchants, and you are dedicated to benefiting the people. Since I said that I want to save you, it is not a lie."

After a pause, Wen Tingzhan continued: "It depends on whether your repentance is sincere enough."

Yu Zhi, who understood Wen Tingzhan's thoughts in a second, immediately ordered Mr. Yu: "Brother Jian, go and get the dowry from your mother's dressing table."

Young Master Yu carefully picked up the quilt for his father to lean on, then stepped back and opened the curtain to bring over his mother's dowry, and handed it to Wen Tingzhan under Yu Zhi's signal.

Wen Tingzhan took it in his hand, and Yu Zhi said wearily: "There is a hidden compartment at the bottom of the dowry."

Wen Tingzhan turned the dowry upside down, tapped it and took out the jade flute, cut the bottom along the edge with a sword blade, and uncovered the bottom plate, there was a booklet similar to a handbook inside.

"The evidence of the crimes they committed these years are all here." It's not that Yu Zhi didn't leave a hand, because he died in their hands in the future, his wife and children could protect themselves, he lived on his last breath, lived against his conscience, and It's not because he is greedy for life and afraid of death, but because he wants to protect his wife and children.

He turned it over in his hand, Wen Tingzhan looked at it roughly, and then accepted it.

"They originally waited until Lord Hou trusted the subordinate, and asked the latter to lead Lord Hou into the ghost town." Yu Zhi explained the last words.

"Ghost town?" Wen Tingzhan had never heard of ghost towns in Tubo.

"It was just discovered a few years ago." Yu Zhi explained, "It's located in Narizada County. It is said that in the barren desert, there is a castle that came out of thin air. Many people have been there, but so far Before returning, the commander-in-chief and the court envoy also sent several groups of people there."
