Prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 225 Inspired by it
Zhao Si sneered, and said: "This Ye Chen is indeed a heavenly genius. Not only did he break through the Qimen Dunjia Formation set up by his master in my other courtyard, but he was also inspired by it to create a Qimen Dunjia maze. It's a pity that this In this world, apart from him, Ye Chen, Master and I are the ones who are most familiar with Qimen Dunjia. And today Ye Chen is going to attend Wei Wang's wedding. This maze is destined to be broken by me, Zhao Si, and the sky star The jade pendant will definitely fall into my hands. With the wealth and resources exchanged for this Tianxing jade pendant from Chen Jingyuan of the Southern Han Dynasty, the master will definitely be able to overwhelm the other eight elders and become the second hall master of the temple after the master ancestor. Let the master be the only one in the church."

Ye Chen took Li Siyan, Ma Gangzi, and Wang Chao, and dug out a piece of jade wrapped in special red and white soil in the back garden.The shape of this jade is exactly the same as the shape and pattern of the Heavenly Star Jade Pendant on Ye Chen's chest. It was carved by Ye Chen and Yu Qingyan in three days half a month ago.The quality of the jade is similar to that of the Tianxing jade pendant. It is a piece of ancient jade itself, and after Ye Chen learned the unique method of forging ancient jade from later generations, although the color and luster of the Tiande jade pendant does not look exactly the same, it is also [-]-[-]% similar.

This jade pendant will be brought by Yu Qingyan, Wang Chao, Li Siyan and Ma Gangzi to the core of the labyrinth - the basement in the ghost doctor's small yard, where it will be placed there waiting for Zhao Si to take the bait, while Ye Chen will go to Wei Wang's wedding .

Today is the Lantern Festival, the Chinese festival, and it is also a day of great joy for the eldest son of the emperor, King Wei.Of course, that bride is Lu Ping, the daughter of the Lu family.Although gold, silver and money are things outside the body, they have such magical powers that make many difficult things come true.

According to the gift of the prince accepting a concubine, the emperor sent the Lu family a dowry gift of 2 taels of silver, one hundred altars of fine wine, two hundred bolts of silk and satin, one hundred catties of fragrant tea, and countless treasures, clothes, jewelry and other items.When the servants in the palace brought the dowry, Yuan couldn't help smiling, secretly admiring her husband's strategy in her heart.

The bride is sitting in a sedan chair with gold-plated and silver makeup. In front of her are four maids holding square palm fans, ten maids holding hand-held flowers, another ten maids holding high red lanterns as guides, and eight handsome boys on the left and right as guides. escort, followed by a band composed of dozens of people.The welcoming team went all the way, with wind and scenery, crossed Maxing Street from Fengqiu Gate, passed Jinglong Gate to the south, entered the palace through Gongchen Gate, and then went to Wei Palace, attracting countless Kaifeng people to stop and watch. He sighed: "It's different for the emperor to marry a daughter-in-law, and this time we have seen our eyes opened!" The atmosphere of great joy for a while diluted the bloody and terrifying meaning of Yefu's "half-dead labyrinth" these days.

In the Guangzheng Palace, court officials and relatives of the emperor gathered together. Zhao Kuangyin stood up from the high throne with a golden cup in his hand, and said loudly with a smile on his face: "My dear friends, today is the day of Prince Dezhao's great joy. My dear friends, Please!" After saying that, he raised his glass and drank it down, and the hall suddenly became lively.

Because Ye Chen has a good relationship with Zhao Dezhao, he still has a special task at the wedding today, so he will not be here.

What is the specific name of Ye Chen's temporary identity? He didn't remember it himself. He only knew that he would stay with Zhao Dezhao all the time, helping him to hold a plate covered with red silk, and there were some strange things under the red silk until After his worship and marriage.

Ye Chen had something on his mind, but his mind was not here, and he didn't care at all.I just peeked at the bride twice with my extraordinary eyesight. I just feel that if the bride looks beautiful in an ordinary home, but if she is a princess, she still lacks a little beauty, but her figure is top-notch, and she still has some vibes. The charm of charm.He wanted to be able to satisfy Zhao Dezhao's lustful side on the bed.

But it still reminded Ye Chen of a little thing that Li Junhao told him half a month ago.

A new temple was newly built in the south of the city, named Mingwang Temple. Because it has the same name as the Maitreya Sect's Great and Small Mingwang, Li Junhao deliberately asked people to investigate and pay attention.So far there is no indication that this Mingwang Temple is related to the Maitreya Sect, but I accidentally learned that Zhao Dezhao’s new wife, Lu Ping, lives in Lu’s family and donated [-] guan incense money to Mingwang Temple half a month ago.Although the process was very secret, the housekeeper of the Lu family who gave the money hired someone who had nothing to do with the Lu family and donated the incense money as this person.But this kind of thing was found out by the Nanbang who had been paying attention to Mingwang Temple. After investigation, it was found that the real donor of the money was the Ludoxun family.

Ye Chen himself is very good at making money, very rich, but it does not mean that ordinary officials are rich, five thousand is nothing to Ye Chen, but to ordinary officials, it is a huge amount of money, Lu Duoxun is just a He is a five-rank court official.Where did so much money come from?Why donate to this Mingwang Temple?

If he donated the incense money in an upright manner, Ye Chen would not pay attention to it, but doing this kind of thing in a sneaky way, making Ye Chen doubt his intentions and whether he has some shady secrets.He even suspected that the Mingwang Temple might really be related to the Maitreya Sect, and that Lu Duoxun was likely to be a nail inserted by the Maitreya Sect in the court of the Great Song Dynasty.

With this guess, without Ye Chen's instructions, Li Junhao sent someone to investigate everything in the Lu family, only to find out that Lu Duoxun is still a good businessman and has secretly made a lot of money these years.However, no clues of evidence related to the Maitreya religion have been found.Later, Ye Chen was busy with the matter of the Tianxing jade pendant, so he put this matter aside. Today, when he saw Lu Ping, the daughter of the Lu family, he suddenly thought of it again.

Ye Chen knew that he had to put on a good show in front of the emperor today, so after finishing his errand here, he counted the time and headed towards Guangzheng Hall in the imperial city.

When Ye Chen was about to arrive at the imperial city, he met Luo Yaoshun who had an extremely ugly face and came to him in a hurry.

"Brother Ye! My brother is sorry for you! My brother and sister are missing." At that time, Luo Yaoshun blamed himself and didn't even dare to look at Ye Chen.

Ye Chen's body shook, his face changed drastically, and murderous intent was in his eyes.He even once regretted his plan to divert the target, he underestimated the enemy too much.

Han Ke'er, who lives in Luo Mansion, disappeared. When the guards of Luo Mansion were not alarmed, they disappeared. Several maids around her were all dead. There was no wound on the body, and the expression was serene, with faces full of tears. It is the color of happiness.

This is the information brought by Luo Yaoshun.

"This is the method of the Maitreya Sect." After Luo Yaoshun swore an oath, he left in a hurry and summoned people to find and save people.Ye Chen thought about this for a while.

Ye Chen's face became even uglier. The Maitreya Sect is also called the Huanxi Sect. How could Ye Chen not know how dirty those bastards are doing.

Ye Chen forced himself to calm down, and after pondering for a moment, he murmured to himself: "Maitreya teaches many people, but there are very few masters, and there is only one who can enter Luofu and kidnap Ke'er without anyone noticing." Shangguan Bingyun. Fortunately, this demon monk is a woman. What's more, her goal is the Heavenly Star Jade Pendant or me. She shouldn't do anything to Ke'er."

With this judgment, Ye Chen's expression softened a little, and he was about to say something to Wang Chao who had been following him all the time, when suddenly there was a light sound in his ear that was hard for ordinary people to detect, and the bow in his hand, which had never left his body, was lifted up. He shot an arrow at a big tree on the left with a full bow.

hum...

Ye Chen could hear it clearly, his lightning-fast and powerful arrow shot through the big tree, and it sounded like someone was knocking him into the air, and there was no sound after that.

Wang Chao, who chased after him and then ran back, said to Ye Chen with a face of shame: "Brother Ye, that thief is very skilled, especially his movement is as fast as a ghost, for my brother, I can only see his back from a distance."

Ye Chen said: "Brother Wang, don't blame yourself. That person just now was Shangguan Bingyun, and there are only a handful of people in the world who can catch up with her."

While talking, he came to the big tree and saw a piece of white cloth hanging on the tree.Ye Chen recognized this piece of white cloth as a piece of Han Keer's underwear at a glance.Can't help but look even uglier.

"Today at the moment of the unitary hour (the quarter of the unitary hour is [-]:[-] p.m. in later generations), outside the city of Kaifeng, at the ferry of the Yellow River, exchange people with jade. Otherwise, one corpse and two lives." This is the content on the note, and it can be seen that it should come from Shangguan Hand of Frozen Cloud.

"At the moment of the unitary hour, there are only four hours left." Wang Chao jumped more than a foot high, took down the white cloth, and said solemnly.

Ye Chen took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed the endless murderous intentions in his heart, calmed himself down, and after pondering for a while, he said to Wang Chao: "Please return to the mansion quickly, Brother Wang, and tell Li Junhao and the others that the plan has changed slightly. Si left as usual according to the original plan, but don't let him take the jade pendant."

Knowing the urgency of the matter, Wang Chao agreed, mounted his horse, and galloped away.

After watching Wang Chao leave, Ye Chen continued to walk towards the imperial city, but the speed was a little faster than before.He wants to see Zhao Kuangyin as soon as possible.

Because of his special status, Ludoxun is the chief today.The ministers toasted to him one after another, and he held the wine glass, socializing reservedly, trying not to show his joy.

Zhao Pu at the same table was very dissatisfied with Wei Wang Zhao Dezhao's marriage to the Lu family this time, but this is a matter of the Tian family after all, even if he is the prime minister, it is inconvenient for him to say anything. Zhang, must have done a lot behind the scenes.

But today Lu Duoxun's status is different, according to the etiquette everyone has to toast to him, even if Zhao Pu is the head of a hundred officials, he is not exempt.He suppressed the disgust in his heart, raised his glass and said, "Brother Lu is happy to have a good son-in-law, congratulations, Mr. Zhao toasts you!"

Lu Duoxun knew that Zhao Pu had always looked down on him, if not for his daughter marrying into the royal family today, how could he take the initiative to toast?Although Lu Duoxun was secretly proud of himself, he still said respectfully: "My husband is so polite, how dare I be an official? Congratulations, congratulations."

On the contrary, it was Zhao Guangyi who showed great enthusiasm and courtesy, and even took Lu Duoxun's hand, said a few more words, and even whispered a few words.Lu Duoxun was naturally flattered, and Zhao Pu snorted coldly when he saw it.

After the important officials of the two governments and the king of Jin toasted Lu Duoxun in turn, Tao Gu, who was sitting in the second seat, came over with a wine glass and bowed to Lu Duoxun: "Brother Lu, congratulations! You have become the emperor easily. My in-laws are really good means, and Tao feels ashamed. From now on, brother Lu will be on the rise, please take care of him!"
