Chapter 264
Shitianwang Temple is a very famous temple in Eastern Osaka, but Zhang Xianqi didn't understand why he said that Emperor Guangyi would quietly hand him this note, what does it mean.

There were some doubts in my heart, but I set foot in the temple to find the monk Danyang.

"Donor, it's getting late, please come back tomorrow." Zhang Xianqi, who had just arrived at the door, was stopped by the monks.

Zhang Xianqi didn't want to reveal his whereabouts to other people, so he kept his mind and said, "This little master, I am Zhang Xianqi, the ambassador of the Daming embassy in Dongying. Today we are here. The Prince of Zhujiang County in Daming had just arrived in Dongying and said that His Excellency Guangyi Huang was attacked, and the Prince of Zhujiang County was shocked. He heard that the Sitianwang Temple was the best temple, and came to pay homage specially to pray for His Excellency Guangyi Huang and His Royal Highness the Prince of Zhujiang County."

When he heard about Zhang Xianqi's identity, the little monk didn't dare to decide, after all, the background was too big.

Zhang Xianqi deliberately released his identity, saying that Emperor Guangyi asked him to come to Monk Danyang, then Monk Danyang probably knew that he was coming to him, and it was better to ask him to come to him, otherwise he would be arrested by Ashikaga. Yoshichi found out that he must be suspicious when he came to find someone. After he left, the Danyang monk was likely to be caught.

"Mr. Zhang, please wait a moment."

When the little monk entered the temple, a high-ranking monk came over after a while. Why is he a high-ranking monk, because his cassocks are more expensive to the naked eye.

The eminent monk approached: "Mr. Zhang Xianqi, poor monk Danyu, I have seen Mr.

This is a monk in his [-]s with a very kind face. He recited the Buddha's name to Zhang Xianqi: "Amitabha, the donor Zhang is here with sincerity, and please come to the temple to pay homage."

Zhang Xianqi entered with the monk, and the Four Heavenly Kings are naturally worshipped in the Sitianwang Temple.

The Buddha statues are majestic and solemn, the Four Heavenly Kings have a very high status, and they receive a lot of incense. The Buddha statues of the Eastern Ying people are more fierce than the Huaxia ones, and they are less calm and peaceful, and they show anger on their faces. This is also related to the more freedom of Eastern Ying Buddhism. .

Zhang Xianqi solemnly knelt down and worshipped the Buddha statue. His mother believed in Buddhism, and he was taught these things since he was a child, so he was familiar with it.

Monk Dan Yu lit incense for Zhang Xianqi, and then said to Zhang Xianqi: "Zhang Xianqi, poor monks have heard about today's events. It is really touching that Zhang Xianqi has the heart to pray for His Majesty the Emperor and His Royal Highness Zhujiang County."

After chatting for a while, Zhang Xianqi did not see the monk Danyang coming to him.

Zhang Xianqi was helpless. He didn't want to show any traces, so he said to the monk Danyu: "Master Danyu, I will leave today, and I will continue to pray for blessings in a few days. I will disturb you all night, and look at Haihan."

"Little monk Danyang congratulates donor Zhang." Monk Danyu made a gesture of invitation, but claimed to be Danyang.

Zhang Xianqi was stunned but did not show it. At this time, there was no one around, only two people and the majestic Four Heavenly Kings.

"Master, is your name Danyang or Danyu?" Zhang Xianqi asked suspiciously.

"The little monk was originally named Danyang, but he changed his name to Danyu because of a change. Today, he blurted out and asked the donor Zhang, don't blame him."

Zhang Xianqi understood that the Danyang monk he was looking for was waiting for him here, and he deliberately waited until no one was around before confessing his identity.

"Master Danyang, today I went to the palace of His Excellency Mr. Kou Kou. His injuries are not fatal, but they are not light. I also met Mr. Kotaro Hino, who asked me to come to Shitennoji Temple to pray for blessings."

"Amitabha, the donor Zhang is really a good person. As a minister of the Ming Dynasty, the reason for praying for the emperor of the East Ying is to pray for the emperor of the East. The monk has also had a few encounters with his majesty. I also left some things with Xiao Seng, if donor Zhang is willing to help, can you help Xiao Seng bring it to him?"

Zhang Xianqi nodded, and saw Monk Danyang walking under the Western Guangmu Tianwang in the statue of the Four Heavenly Kings, turning the mechanism, the stone platform opened, and he took out an object wrapped in golden silk.

The thing looked square and square underneath. Zhang Xianqi took it and wanted to open it to take a look, but Monk Danyang reached out and stopped him: "Zhang Shizhu, I can't see this thing, and you can't see it either. His Majesty the Emperor can watch it, and His Royal Highness the Prince of Zhujiang County can watch it.”

"What is this."

"His Royal Highness will know when he sees it, and I respectfully send donor Zhang."

Zhang Xianqi left first and left the Sitianwang Temple. He was still very careful. He still couldn't understand why the emperor called Guangyi wanted him to come to the Sitianwang Temple. The Danyang monk gave him this package again.

He stared at the package in his arms. He didn't dare to offer this thing directly to Zhu Zhanchang. What if there was something strange about this thing that threatened Zhu Zhanchang?
So even if Monk Danyang said he couldn't watch it, he couldn't help but want to watch it.

He slowly opened the golden silk, took out the contents, and just glanced at it. Zhang Xianqi, who has been in Dongying for many years, who has gone through world affairs calmly, seemed to have lost his soul, and was frightened and quickly folded the golden package again. In a cold sweat, he ordered the carriage to go to where Zhu Zhanchang stayed.

……

At the same time, Hino Kotaro was the only one in the room called Emperor Kouichi, and the candle was dimmed, which specially reduced the visibility inside the house.

They are also afraid of being overheard.

In the dark, Hino Kotaro gestured with his hands. This is a unique sign language for the two of them to communicate, which was invented by Hino Kotaro himself.

"Kutaro, is there really no problem? Are the people of Daming trustworthy?" Said Guangyi Huang was obviously a little scared, and his face was worried. Because of the shoulder injury, he can only gesture with one hand now.

Men are half the fun if they only have one hand to move.

Hino Kotaro smiled lightly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I have investigated the Prince of Pearl River, and he is a very powerful person, and the conditions we gave him will make him have to help us and dare not speak out. "

"Will General Ashikaga find us?" The Emperor said that Kouichi was not very courageous.

Hino Kotaro had to continue comforting and said: "It's okay, Your Majesty, I have handled the matter very carefully. General Ashikaga will not be able to find out in a short time. The murderer who assassinated you today also committed suicide. There is no evidence of death, and there is no flaw. Your Majesty need not worry. "

Although Hino Kotaro said so, but saying that Emperor Koji is like a child who has done something wrong, he is still very uneasy in his heart, the kind of person who hides things in his heart that will make him uneasy.

We commonly call this kind of person a coward, but he is an emperor, and that is a noble coward.

"Kitaro-kun, I'm afraid that the Prince of Zhujiang is unwilling to help us, and even will help Ashikaga Yoshihiro." It seems that Emperor Guangyi's worries will never end and will never stop.

"No, absolutely not. When the Prince of Pearl River sees what we handed over to him, he will definitely choose to help us anyway, because Ashikaga Yoshichi is too much a threat to them, and he will never choose to make peace with them. Ashikaga stands together."

Hino Kotaro doesn't look young, but he works steadily and is good at planning. He is a strategist and think tank who is called Emperor Guangyi hidden in the dark, and he is also the most trusted person by Emperor Guangyi.

"Kutaro-kun, will the shooting really not be found out?" Said that the Emperor Guangxi still looked nervous, which made Hino Kotaro somewhat dissatisfied. Too cowardly, he has the will to be in power, but he has no ability to be in power.

But then I thought that only with the support of such an emperor can I become a real official, a real ruler, and a general.

The wound on Emperor Chengguangyi’s shoulder hurt again, and Kotaro was also distressed when he looked at Emperor Chengguangyi’s unpleasant appearance, so he had to comfort him: “Your Majesty, you have suffered this time, but as long as the plan goes ahead as scheduled, Pearl River County The king cooperates with us, and Ashikaga Yoshichi must go and watch the prince of the Pearl River. If you stay in Osaka to recover, our plan will be successful. There is a saying in Daming that when the heavens will entrust the great responsibility to the people, they must first work their muscles and harden their minds. Your Majesty, your suffering now will surely be rewarded."

It turned out that today's shooting was directed and acted by Huang Guangyi, and the murderer was not wrong, but aimed at Huang Guangyi's shoulder. The two seemed to be planning something and deliberately staged the shooting. The emperor was seriously injured because of this, and Ashikaga Yoshichi did not suspect that this was a self-directed and self-acted performance by the emperor. After all, the emperor was hit solidly.

He wouldn't think that the usual cowardly Emperor Cheng Guangyi had the guts to direct and act such a drama, and he couldn't think of what benefit would it do to Huang Guangyi himself?
To gain sympathy?
What's the use of this?

After the night, Ashikaga Yoshichi also came to the residence of the emperor called Koi, and asked the guard next to him: "What's the matter with your majesty?"

"General, His Majesty the Emperor has rested, and Mr. Hino has also left."

Ashikaga Yoshichi nodded and walked to the dark corridor. In the darkness, a figure slowly fell from the corridor. It was a ninja covered in black clothes.

"General, after leaving here, Zhang Xianqi did not return to the place where the Prince of Zhujiang County stayed, but went to the Sitianwang Temple first to pray for His Majesty the Emperor and the Prince of Zhujiang County."

"Pray for blessings? Hmph." Ashikaga Yoshi smiled disdainfully: "How do you pray?"

"Failed to enter, there are so many monks in Shitennoji that there is no way to enter without being discovered."

Ashikaga Yoshichi's eyes narrowed slightly: "Where's the Prince of Pearl River? What's the matter?"

"The Prince of Pearl River has been staying at his residence in the afternoon, and there has been no change, but Master Yixiu Zongchun has been there once, and the two sides seem to be having a good time talking."

These ninjas are the intelligence department trained by Ashikaga Yoshihide. Of course, they are different from the ghosts in the animation. In fact, they are ordinary people with good skills. Writing round eyes, their eyes are fairly normal.

Zhu Zhanchang's residence was heavily guarded, so they naturally couldn't get in.

"Can you send someone to follow Yixiu Zongchun?"

"There is not enough manpower, and there is no general order and no follow-up."

"Yixu Zongchun is wild and unruly, and sent someone to [Kui]'s headquarters to ask Master Ming Zongtan why he let Yixiu Zongchun follow the Prince of Pearl River."

"Yes, General." The ninja hid his figure and disappeared into the darkness, and I have to say that walking is really light.

Ashikaga Yoshichi looked at the railing and looked at the moon, and said to himself, "Kui, Kui, after so many years, is it still necessary to exist? For those who have died, it's better to go to the ground as soon as possible."

In the dark night, the entire situation in Dongying was silently changing because of the arrival of Zhu Zhanchang.

Those ghosts who live in the dark want to see the light of day again.

……

Zhu Zhanchang rested at night and was called by someone, but he also knew that Zhang Xianqi was a measured person, so there must be something he couldn't wait to wake him up so anxiously at this time.

Zhu Zhanchang met Zhang Xianqi in the tea room.

Zhang Xianqi looked around suspiciously. This was the first time Zhu Zhanchang saw Zhang Xianqi's appearance.

He has always been an elegant man, he is measured and graceful, even in front of himself, he has not lost his style, and when facing Ashikaga Yoshimo and Emperor Shimitsu, he maintains the appearance of the ambassador of the Ming Dynasty.

But when he left in the afternoon and came back now, he looked suspicious, with fine beads of sweat on his forehead visible to the naked eye. He was so nervous that he forgot to maintain his demeanor and demeanor.

"What's wrong with you?" Zhu Zhanchang didn't know what happened, which made him change so much in a short period of time.

Zhang Xianqi looked at Zhu Zhanchang's guard, Zhu Zhanchang understood and asked Yang Song to take someone to wait outside the house.

Zhang Xianqi looked at Black Snake Ji again, and Zhu Zhanchang said, "Alia is my concubine, and everything can be said in front of her."

But Zhang Xianqi swallowed nervously: "His Royal Highness, what I want to say next is a big matter, Wei Chen dare not let anyone know, please forgive me, if Your Highness finds out what Wei Chen has done is wrong. I would like to ask your Highness to punish you.”

Speaking of which, Zhu Zhanchang glanced at Hei Sheji, and Hei Sheji walked out of the door knowingly.

Zhu Zhanqian was puzzled by Zhang Xianqi's abnormal behavior. At this time, the two were alone together. Although Zhu Zhanqian believed in Zhang Xianqi 100% in his heart, he must be on guard against others. Zhu Zhanqian had already raised his vigilance to the highest point at this time. Just in case Zhang starts to rebel.

After seeing everyone leaving, Zhang Xianqi rummaged around in the room. After finding nothing suspicious, he sat back and took out the palm-sized thing wrapped in yellow cloth, very cautiously.

"what is this?"

"This afternoon, Wei Chen went to visit Emperor Hengguang Yi, his attendant, and handed me a note, writing to Sitianwang Temple, monk Danyang, Weichen went to him, and then in Sitianwang Temple, the monk Danyang gave him After seeing this thing, Wei Chen told Wei Chen not to see it by himself, but only for you, Your Highness."

"But you saw it?" Zhu Zhanchang guessed that Zhang Xianqi must have seen it.

Zhang Xianqi nodded, but did not deny it: "Wei Chen was afraid that there was something unfavorable to His Highness, so Wei Chen looked at it first."

"What's inside? It can make you so nervous?"

Zhang Xianqi pushed the thing forward: "Your Highness, see for yourself."

Zhu Zhanchang was slightly puzzled, and slowly opened the yellow cloth.

It is a half-foot-square jade green jade. Its texture is warm, delicate and extremely tough. Its color is crystal clear and elegant. Its appearance is as lustrous as water soaking.

Zhu Zhanchang picked it up and turned it over, but saw sixteen characters.

Heaven's mandate is virtuous, showing uprightness in the Quartet, the essence of one being in the middle, and the universe will be prosperous.

Zhu Zhanchang stared at Yuxi with wide eyes, and then looked at Zhang Xianqi. He finally understood why Zhang Xianqi was so flustered, and asked everyone, including his concubine, out of the room.

He did what he did, and this consideration was also thorough. Even Alia couldn't let her know about it.

Including Zhang Xianqi himself, now that he knows this matter, he is also very worried about his own situation. This is the secret of the royal family, and the biggest taboo of Emperor Yongle. If the jade seal is true, it will be a big matter.

If this jade seal is real, it will be called the Ningming Divine Treasure.

It is the jade seal of Emperor Jianwen.
