Seeing several children looking at him expectantly, Prince Dai chuckled and pulled Wu Qingruo to sit down.
"How?" His Highness Prince Ning, Eunuch Pan and Eunuch Cui all looked at Prince Dai and Wu Qingruo, "What did the emperor's sister-in-law say?"
"Good news or bad news, which one should I hear first?" Prince Dai returned the two portraits to Shen Haolin, "Think about it before you say it, but you can't change it."
"Don't choose either one, let me guess what these two are." His Highness Prince Ning touched his chin, thought for a while and said, "If it's bad news, the Queen's Wife should have confirmed that it's them, right? Good news Yes, judging from the two stolen Buddha statues, the threat shouldn’t be big, right?”
"Smart boy!" Prince Dai patted His Highness Prince Ning on the shoulder with admiration, "Your guess is almost right."
"Two uncles!" Song Jue looked at Prince Dai and then at His Highness Prince Ning, "Can you tell me clearly what the situation is now? What's the story behind these two Buddha statues? Do you have any plans for us? Influence?"
Several adults exchanged glances with each other, and Prince Dai nodded towards Eunuch Pan and Eunuch Cui, motioning for them to speak.
Eunuch Pan nodded, cleared his throat, and began to explain the origin of the two Buddha statues to several children.
"About twenty years ago, around the time you were born, Master Tianxing appeared in the Jiangnan area. The Tianxing Sect he founded expanded rapidly in a short period of time. Tianxing Miao soon became the most popular cultivator in the Jiangnan area. Temples, almost every state capital in the south of the Yangtze River has five or six Tianxing temples, with up to hundreds of thousands of believers."
"Eunuch Pan, please wait a moment. The content of this story... seems to sound familiar!" Shen Cha looked at Shen Haolin, then at Mei Lin and Ying Wu, "Have we met two years ago? Caught me. A few swindlers?"
"Boss, I remember correctly, this is what happened!" Ying Wu nodded and saw Prince Dai and Prince Ning looking at him and explained, "It was probably the year before last when Boss Cen, who delivered fruits and vegetables to the Duke's Mansion, came The reporter said that his wife has been very strange in the past two weeks. Ever since she went to a Dharma gathering with Mrs. Tao from the silk shop next door, she has been talking in a daze since she came back. She is always mumbling something, and then she talks to her relatives. There are more and more interactions between friends, but every time they talk about bringing people to this Dharma conference, saying how effective this Dharma conference is, and how powerful this mage is, it is like a god descending to the earth. If you get the discernment of the mage If you look at it, you can keep your family happy, your children and grandchildren prosperous, and your life worry-free.”
"Oh!" His Highness Prince Ning chuckled, "It's really a very familiar style!"
"Xiao Wu, what you are talking about, do you need to pay a certain amount of money to join the Dharma assembly and get advice from the mage? For example, if Mrs. Tao attracts Boss Cen's wife, will she get some rewards?" Eunuch Cui He interjected, "Then Boss Cen's wife brings in some of her relatives and friends, and she will also get some benefits, and so on, right?"
"Yes." Ying Wu nodded, "Because we had Boss Cen as our internal agent, we successfully wiped out this scammer gang."
"Are there no other gangs or branches?" Seeing Ying Wu shaking his head, His Highness Prince Ning continued to ask, "Then, did they explain where they learned this method? Or did they come up with it themselves?"
"Say it." Ying Wu nodded, "They said that their elders in the family had done this before. The organization they were in at that time was very prosperous and swept through most of the Xia Dynasty. However, their elders joined relatively late. , did not make much money before encountering a fierce attack from the government. Seeing that the wind was going in the wrong direction, the elders hurriedly swept away the family members, took the young and old of the family, packed lightly, and ran to the border to settle down. Until the situation at the border After stabilizing, I returned to my old business.”
"It seems that the Tianxing Sect did have a lot of fish that slipped through the net back then, and they were not caught so cleanly." His Highness Prince Ning raised his eyebrows, "But it is also true that there are hundreds of thousands of people, how could they all be caught at once? It’s not very realistic.”
"Ahem, I thought you were talking about something mysteriously!" Song Jue and Bai Meng said at the same time, "Isn't this just a trick and abduction? In the past two years, not only the border has appeared, but Xijing has also There are some around the world, there are a lot of them in the jails of Jingzhao Mansion and the Ministry of Punishment." They looked at several elders, "Don't they all have something to do with the Tianxing Sect?"
"We can't say for sure. We need to catch the monster thief to find out." Prince Dai lowered his head, thought for a while, and then continued, "Just now you asked if it would have any impact on our plan. It should be no. Since Song Yuesui Pick two of the shops under Song Junran's name, pretend to be a monster thief, and then spread as much news as possible to let the monster thief and the people behind him know."
"When they know that someone has impersonated them, they either throw out the crime, or get angry and clear their name." Shen Cha nodded, "However, if he wants to continue stealing, he may have to choose to come out and clear his name. I won’t be slandered by others for no apparent reason.”
"That's right." Prince Dai nodded, "If everything goes well, not only can we find the hiding place of Song Yuesui and Song Junran, but we can also find the remnants of the Tianxing Sect who have slipped through the net. Kill two birds with one stone."
