Jing Kuanren nodded, and Hun Weiming couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Haha, so to speak, the Japanese people themselves harbored evil intentions, and it was their own fault that the entire army was wiped out. No wonder Li Shijun was so ruthless."
He thought that since Li Yong did the right thing, then the grandfather and the Zhenze Gang who participated in the massacre of the Japanese envoys to the Tang Dynasty were also right. The Jianghu Alliance would no longer be in danger of being ruined. A big stone fell in his heart, and he couldn't help but feel happy. laugh.
Hun Weiming's smile attracted everyone's attention, and Jing Kuanren and his son also glared at him dissatisfied.
Duguxiang said: "But Mr. Ruxiang, how can you find the Miao descendants of Li Jiancheng among hundreds of Japanese, and are you sure that you are not wrong?"
Li Yong said: "We boarded the Japanese ship and found the person we were looking for with almost no effort. Japanese life is extremely short, and although that person was only the normal height of a Han Chinese in the Tang Dynasty, he stood out among the Japanese. generally."
Jiang Shuo said, "That's not right. Mr. Taibai was probably only seven or eight years old back then. If the Miao people were also young, they would not be much taller than the Japanese."
Li Yong said: "When it comes to Miao people, you all think of him as a child. In fact, although that person is the great-great-grandson of Jiancheng, he is already in his twenties. Moreover, he does not speak Chinese well, and half of his sentences are mixed with It seems that the Turkic language did come back from the Western Regions.”
Pu Gu Huai En said: "If we kill this person on the ship, wouldn't we also fall into the dilemma of being difficult to distinguish the authenticity as you said, Li Shijun? If the emperor suspects that you are secretly hiding this person for evil purposes, wouldn't it be a big mistake? Is it wonderful?"
Nan Jiyun glanced at Hun Weiming and said, "Besides, there are so many Zhenze masters boarding the boat. Even though they have killed all the Japanese, how can we guarantee that no one will leak the secrets among so many gang members?"
Li Yong said: "In fact, it was the leader of the Hun Lao gang who boarded the boat secretly and captured Jiancheng's great-great-grandson, and then let the Zhenze gang board the boat to kill the Japanese and silence them. Therefore, the Zhenze gang only thought that the big girls on the boat were doing great evil. The Japanese pirates did not see Jiancheng Miao descendants. As for what Wynn said, after we found the person, of course we did not execute him on the spot, but immediately sent him back to Luoyang under the stars. Only then did we know that Jin Silan was not a temporary act. Someone actually appointed me behind it.”
Jing Zhencheng asked curiously: "Who appointed me? When I met him in Silla, he didn't mention this."
Li Yong pondered for a while, and finally decided to tell all the truth, saying: "The person Jin Silan is loyal to is the young hero among the princes and grandsons, the then Wei Wei Shaoqing, and today's saint Li Sanlang!"
Pu Gu Huaien said: "The guards are responsible for guarding and garrisoning troops at the palace gate. When the current saint killed Zhu Wei in the first year of Tang Long and established Ruizong, many imperial troops responded to him. At that time, Jin Silan was a guard and obeyed the orders of today's saint. Strange."
Li Yong nodded and said: "Back then, Hun'er's grandfather sent this man to Luoyang. Speaking of Jiancheng's great-great-grandson, he was the disciple of the saint. It is said that after the saint verified his true identity, he personally took action and killed his own son neatly. From my younger brother."
It is said that the current saint Li Longji is quite similar to his ancestor, Emperor Taizong, Li Shimin. When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but feel shuddered because of his decisiveness in killing the heirs of Jiancheng.
Li Yong continued: "The old Lake Master Hun went to Luoyang and did not meet Jin Sheng. However, after he returned to Zhenze, he fell ill and died of a sudden illness within two years. Jin Silan, on the other hand, rose to prominence and rose to the fourth rank. The position of Grand Servant. How exactly the old Lake Master Hun died, I can’t tell.”
Hun Wei said clearly: "My grandfather has always been in good health, but he suddenly died young. Looking at it now, I'm afraid it has something to do with it." However, as time goes by, no one has any evidence. Hun's father's death can only be permanent. Unsolved.
Li Yong said: "In the thirteenth year of Kaiyuan, the sage Taishan returned to Chang'an after being entrusted with Zen. When he was passing by Bianzhou, Yong came from Chenzhou to pay him a visit. He presented several poems in person, which was highly appreciated by the sage. Unexpectedly, a few days later, he issued an edict saying that Yong had misappropriated it. Public funds were actually sentenced to death. Fortunately, Kong Zhang of Xuzhou wrote a letter to remonstrate, and Yong was exempted from the death penalty and demoted to Zunhua County Lieutenant of Qinzhou. Brother Kong Zhang died in exile. At that time, Jin Silan was still in the court. I think I wanted to take this opportunity to silence myself.”
Servant Huaien sighed: "Li Shijun and Hun Lao Lake Master are both loyal and righteous people, but they are actually jealous of the saints. It seems that it is really difficult to be a loyal minister. It is a pity that although Li Shijun has the talent of a prime minister, he is only involved in this incident." In the end, I can only be a county guard."

Yong Que said solemnly: "Righteousness lies in not favoring power and disregarding its own interests. We do this just because we don't want to start another war over the issue of royal succession and make the world miserable. How can it be for our own power?"
Jing Zhencheng asked his grandfather, "Grandpa, how did you survive? Where have you been these years?"
Jing Kuanren said: "One of my Japanese skills is the water-breathing technique. I pretended to be hit by a knife and fell into the sea, dived to escape, and survived. After that, I devoted myself to avenging the two ships of Japanese. Only then did I realize that There is a huge Jianghu alliance behind Li Yong, and Jin Silan is hiding in the deep palace. My kung fu is too far away to take revenge, so I went to Shaolin Temple to secretly study martial arts scriptures. I went to North Shaolin first, and then to South Shaolin. After being discovered by Master Shenhui, he fled all the way to Shuomo Desert in the North until he met Jiang Xiaoyou. After being defeated by him, he was captured by the eminent monks of Heze Temple in Luoyang."
When he said this, Jing Zhencheng pressed his long sword with his hand and stared at Heze Shenhui. Jing Kuanren hurriedly held his hand and said, "My son, be patient for a moment. Master Shenhui has been following you for thousands of miles. It turns out it's not because of me." I peeked at the scriptures, but I saw from the scriptures that I secretly learned that the martial arts I learned had gone astray and fell into the devil's way. Just because I didn't get the guidance of the eminent monks and didn't learn the foundation of Shaolin Buddhism, I forced myself to learn Shaolin. This magical skill is really very dangerous. If it is not corrected, the meridians in the whole body will go backwards and die soon."
Dugu Xiang was shocked when he heard that Jiang Shuo had passed the test. Dugu Xiang's eyes widened and he said, "Old Crow, I see that you are very energetic. I didn't expect that the outsider is strong but the middle is strong. Will you be able to survive in a few days?"
Jiang Shuo said: "Bah, bah, bah... Xiang'er, don't talk nonsense. You see, Senior Jing has been tonsured. He must have become a disciple of Master Shenhui and started practicing authentic Buddhist martial arts."
Jing Kuanren said in a long voice: "Amitabha... Xiaoyou Jiang is right. After Master Shenhui captured me, he traveled all the way south and taught me the Dharma. At first, I wanted to turn a deaf ear to what Master Shenhui taught me, but... People can't close their ears, so how can they really not hear? Every word of the Buddhist scriptures poured into my ears. I didn't expect it but it was indescribable. I felt very comfortable all over. The intermittent meridians on my body were actually relieved. A lot."
Dugu Xiang said: "Congratulations to you, Old Crow..."
Jing Kuanren said from a distance: "Decades of accumulated evil can be resolved in just a few days. Nothing in the world is so cheap. Then one day, the backlash of the true energy in my body suddenly broke out, and the true energy in my body was flowing around..." He He turned to Jing Zhencheng and said, "If Master Shenhui and other eminent monks hadn't found out in time and used Shaolin's pure internal energy to guide me, my son, you wouldn't be able to see me today."
Jing Zhencheng asked, "Is my grandpa in good health now?"
Jing Kuanren said: "Amitabha, I have now become a disciple of Master Shenhui. My name is "Kuanren". I have devoted myself to studying Shaolin martial arts. However, I may have to face the pain of backlash of true energy throughout my life. This is my destiny. I have no complaints or fear in my heart. On the contrary, through practicing Buddhism, I feel more and more peaceful. Then I reflect on the incident when the Tang Dynasty envoy was sunk on a ship. Although the Japanese crew were innocent, the reason was the envoy's evil thoughts. . "
Jing Zhencheng said in confusion: "Master, can't we avenge the four hundred compatriots?"
Jing Kuanren, also known as "Master Kuanren" said: "At that time, Li Shijun could not judge how many Japanese people were involved or knew about this matter. For the safety of the Tang royal family, he could only kill two ships of the envoys sent to Tang Dynasty. If we were Before he became a monk, he lived in the same situation as Mr. Li, and I was afraid that he would make such an arrangement. Although the crew members died tragically, it was due to the karma of the previous life."
Dugu Xiang said disapprovingly: "Old Crow, according to what you said, there is no need to be a knight who punishes evil and promotes good. I just need to wait for the bad guys to die after completing their evil deeds..."
Nan Jiyun said, "I still have a question. How can you prove that Li Taibai is the suspected soldier and that the person on the Japanese envoy to the Tang Dynasty is the real master? I heard that Mr. Taibai claimed to be the ninth grandson of Li Hao, King of Liangwu Zhao, and Li Hao was the Han Fei General. The sixteenth generation grandson of Li Guang, the founding king of Xiliang, is also the ancestor of the Li Tang royal family. This is a bit too coincidental."
Jiang Shuo said: "Nan Ba, you mean that the suspected soldier is the real master, and the real master is actually the suspected soldier?"
Nan Jiyun said: "When the fake becomes the real, then the real is also fake."
Li Yong shook his head and said: "We also had doubts about this back then, but Jiancheng's great-great-grandson carried a token with him, that is, the prince
The white jade waist plate is engraved with Li Jiancheng, the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, on the front, and a line of small Turkic characters on the north side. Translated into Chinese characters, it is: Bishamon, Jiyou. Bishamen is the small character of Li Jiancheng, and Jiyou is the year of his birth. The ninth year of Emperor Kaihuang's reign in the Sui Dynasty. "
Dugu Xiang said: "Isn't this forgery too obvious? How could the Li Tang royal family carve Turkic characters on it?"
Li Yong said: "This is not surprising. Li and Tang's group came from Xiliang. At the beginning of the founding of the Tang Dynasty, many people in the royal family used Turkic characters... From the texture and shape of the jade plaque, it is confirmed that it is a royal thing, and there are additional inscriptions on the back. The names and dates of birth of the descendants of Li Jiancheng who were passed down to the Western Regions are obviously different by hundreds of years from the carving marks, and the writing style is not written by one person. There is only one great-great-grandson on the plaque, but it is engraved with "Taigao, Xinsi" in Chinese characters. . "
Li Yong was a great expert in calligraphy and engraving tablets. When he said that the traces and writing style were different, no one would doubt it. Jiang Shuo said, "Mr. Taibai was born in the year of Xinchou, but there is a difference of twenty years. With "Tai Gao" Judging from the year of his birth, this great-great-grandson is indeed not Mr. Taibai. "
Everyone nodded when they heard this, and Jing Zhencheng asked, "Where is this jade tablet now?"
Li Yong said: "Of course it was dedicated to the third prince back then, and it is in the hands of the saint today. He also used this jade plaque to confirm the identity of Jiancheng's great-great-grandson. It must have been destroyed after that, right?"
Jiang Shuo asked, "What is the big secret that the clay kneader asked the Nestorian Dharma King to pass down from generation to generation before he died?"
Li Yong was stunned for a moment and said: "I think Master Ni did not know that the envoys sent to Tang Dynasty had not left the Tang Dynasty until his death. The secret passed down was that Li Tang had descendants in Japan, but he did not know that the last descendant of Jiancheng had already met his end and was buried. It’s outside Haizhou.”
