"Riyi Pavilion, Mafeng Village, Qinglian Sect..."
Shen Haolin touched his chin and looked at the board beside Ying Si thoughtfully. He always felt that something was not right, but what was the problem? He couldn't tell for a while. How the current process made him feel That is, it seems that all this is going too smoothly. They have found more information during this period than the older generation of people have found in so many years, and they have made great progress. Are they really so powerful? Isn't he very good? believe.
For example, senior Tantai and Brother Jing Wang are doubtful whether they really haven't found this information or they are pretending not to find this information. If they really haven't found it, is it because they haven't found the key points before? , was confused by the smoke bombs released by the people behind the scenes. But if they are pretending that nothing has been found, what is their purpose? Is it to guide them to find out? But what's the benefit of doing so?
[In view of the general environment,
Thinking of this, Shen Haolin sighed. It's really hard to guess what these old men are thinking. Even if you ask them face to face, they will just ignore him and won't say what they really think.
"Brother?" Shen Cha tilted his head and looked at the silent Shen Haolin, and asked curiously, "What are you thinking? Is our idea wrong?"
"No, it has nothing to do with our thoughts, it's something else."
"whats the matter?"
"Do you have this feeling? We seem to be going too smoothly. Starting from the Qinglian Sect, the power of the people behind the scenes has gradually emerged, and we have found it bit by bit. Until now, we We already know that the people behind the scenes are on the island, controlling organizations like Qinglian Sect, Riyige, and Mafengzhai, but..." Shen Haolin looked at Shen Cha, then at Xue Ruitian and Jin Jing, " Don’t the seniors know what we know? Brother Jing Wang and senior Tantai, they must have put a lot of thought into it, but they have been investigating for so many years, but they haven’t investigated as much as we have this year, right? ?」
"Brother, what you mean is that the seniors actually found out, but didn't tell us. They just left some clues for us to discover on our own?"
"Is this possible?"
"You mean, we were tricked by these old men?" We almost died once, no matter how much they want to test us, they won’t really play with our lives, right?”
"I think so too. They wouldn't do this to make us stronger." Shen Cha nodded, agreeing more with Xue Ruitian's idea, "Actually, we stand on the same side as Brother Jing, Senior Tantai, and It is only on the shoulders of Uncle Huang and Uncle Dai that we can go so smoothly. Without the foundation they laid for us, we would not be able to find out these things." She thought for a while, looked at Jin Miaomiao, half-smiling but not smiling. He raised his eyebrows and continued, "But what my brother said is not wrong. Sometimes, it does feel like someone is plotting against you."
"Are you looking at ***?" Jin Miaomiao raised an eyebrow, "This has nothing to do with me!"
"It definitely has nothing to do with you, but it definitely has something to do with your master." Xue Ruitian chuckled and stared at Jin Miaomiao, "I have always felt that everything we are experiencing now has something to do with your master. Inextricably linked, everything seems to be going in the direction set by your master, and every step has not deviated from your master's expectations, right? He has more or less connections with every party, he is Didn't you calculate something that led us to find the person behind this?"
"Don't tell me you think so. I feel the same way. I always feel that my master is controlling something. Otherwise, why is it such a coincidence that everything is related to my master? "Jin Miaomiao let out a long sigh, "I even sometimes wonder why they obey my master's arrangements, why they obey my master's words, what exactly is my master planning, and what role do we play in it? What kind of character."
"That's right!" Shen Cha snapped his fingers, "You feel the same as I do.
As our investigation deepened, I felt more and more that the master became more and more mysterious in my heart. "
"God!" Hongye sighed as he lay on the table, "It's even harder to guess the thoughts of such a person."
"I have a bold idea, please listen to see if this is possible."
"Brother, what do you think?" Shen Cha looked at Shen Haolin, poured a cup of tea and handed it to him, "Speak slowly, don't be in a hurry."
"I want to say that the one who really had a dispute with the person behind him and wanted to fight to the death should be Master Huilan, right? No, to be precise, the master should have been provoked and forced to fight. It might have been just two people. It was a fight between individuals, but this mysterious person was eager for quick success and wanted to completely overthrow the master. In the process, he had evil intentions and attacked the master's friends and relatives, so that the master had to involve us. Wrong?" Shen Haolin looked at Shen Cha, Xue Ruitian, and then at Jin Jing and Jin Miaomiao, "What do you think?"
"It's possible!" Shen Cha patted Shen Haolin's arm and said excitedly, "That's probably the case. Thinking about it this way, many things make sense. What this mysterious person is targeting is related to He has a very good relationship with the master. And the people he draws in all have deep grudges against the master or his relatives and friends, such as the Wanyan family. He"
As she spoke, she stood up excitedly, dropped the board next to Ying Si, and started writing furiously on the back.
"For example, at the beginning, it was just a confrontation between the master and the person behind him. But this mysterious person wanted to completely defeat the master, so he involved the master's relatives, friends, and people he cared about, and even triggered several countries. The fights are so intense that we, our elders, have to participate in their fights. But I believe that this should not be the master’s original intention.”
"But if the other party's goal is to defeat my master, they should stop after my master passes away, right?"
"No!" Shen Cha shook his finger, "Because during this long tearing process, this mysterious person has discovered another purpose. He no longer simply hopes to defeat the master, but wants to truly control The world."
"This is consistent with our previous speculation. They don't want to really come out to the public, but they want to control everything behind the scenes. For example, they think that the royal family of Daxia will be out of their control. They Just plan some rebellion and pull the Daxia royal family off the throne, just like what they are doing in the Kingdom of Jin now. If it weren't for the people in this bureau, it would be impossible to realize that there is an invisible hand stirring up the situation. , right?" Shen Haolin stood up, walked to Shen Cha's side, and said, "Those ministers, people in the Kingdom of Jin, and even Wanyanping herself don't know that everything they are going through now is controlled by others. Yes, only Aunt Wanyanping and Wanyan Qingmu, who was bewitched by her, know that they are controlled by others."
"But they can't get rid of this control, because what the mysterious people use to bewitch them is exactly what they long for most." Xue Ruitian sighed, "In this way, the reason why the Qinglian Sect is willing to be used or surrendered As for that mysterious person, he actually wants to wait for an opportunity to take over the Song family."
"Yeah!" Shen Cha nodded, "Brother Xiao Jue said the same thing before. He felt that the Qinglian Sect wanted to repeat the practices of the previous dynasty at the end of the dynasty, and wanted to use the people to give Daxia a heavy blow, but the current situation is different from that of the previous dynasty. The last years are completely different. Even if they are popular for a while, they will always be fooled if they don’t regret it. People will not abandon their wealth and life and follow them to do such stupid things. Their plan failed, and they began to die down, but they felt angry. , because this result also caused the mysterious person to lose to the master, which they could not accept, so they thought of giving the master some color." She looked at Shen Haolin and then at Xue Ruitian, He sighed helplessly, "This is how the injustice of the Xue family and the tragedy of Uncle Ning unfolded."
Xue Ruitian looked at the expressions of several people, shrugged helplessly, spread his hands, and sighed.
"You don't have to look at me like this. I know that this is the result of the Xue family's own fault. Although they left the Qinglian Sect early, the identity of the Xue family, the founder of the Qinglian Sect, cannot be denied, and being targeted is also It’s understandable. What’s more, not only the Xue family was involved with the Qinglian Sect back then.
, there are also people who have benefited, and there is nothing they can do if they are involved again. This is the same reason why the previous royal family separated itself from Riyi Pavilion after the founding of the country. If they were not separated, then if they were found out in the future, they might be the same as we are now. "
"Yes!" Shen Cha nodded, "But..."
"Wait a minute, I haven't finished speaking yet." Xue Ruitian interrupted Shen Cha's next words, cleared his throat, and said, "Since my mother's injustice was mentioned today, let me tell you frankly what you are hiding from me. Son, I already know everything."
"What...what's the matter?" Shen Cha suddenly felt guilty, hid behind Shen Haolin, stuck out his little head, and said calmly, "Brother Xiaotian, what are you talking about, we How come you don’t know?”
"Ahem, that's right!" Jin Jing cleared her throat, stretched out her hand and poked Jin Miaomiao in the back, "We don't know anything, right?"
"Yes!" Jin Miaomiao nodded, quickly exchanged glances with Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, and blinked at Hongye, "Master Marquis, we are all honest with you, there is nothing to deceive?"
"Really?" Seeing the reactions of several people, Xue Ruitian didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "If you don't feel guilty, why are you flirting with each other? Do you really think I can't tell?"
"We really don't know anything."
Seeing how several people refused to admit it even if they beat them to death, Xue Ruitian shook his head helplessly and waved his hand towards them.
"Okay, I've already checked with Prince Ying and Prince Dai about what you hid from me. Those two didn't hide anything from me, and told me everything they knew." He took out a letter and handed it to Shen Haolin, "Look, this letter is from your master. He said that if I make it clear to you, if you don't admit it, I will give this letter to you. "
Shen Haolin took the letter, opened it and read the contents. The handwriting was indeed his master's, the narrative style was also his master's style, and the final private seal was also his master's. He was sure it was true.
"Don't worry, I won't fool you with false letters."
Shen Haolin glanced at Xue Ruitian, and went to read Wu Qingruo's letter with Shen Cha. The content probably said that Xue Ruitian knew the truth and was relieved, and there was no need to hide it from him.
"Knowing the truth will relieve your knot?" Shen Haolin raised his eyebrows, "What's going on?"
"As much as you know, I know everything."
"For example?" Shen Cha was still hiding behind Shen Haolin, looking at Xue Ruitian cautiously, "What do you know?"
"I know that the truth about my mother's injustice that I have devoted myself to pursuing is actually a scheme designed by everyone. My father, mother, Uncle Shen, Aunt Shen, the late emperor, the eldest prince of the Jin Kingdom, and many, many others were involved in it. The purpose of this plan is to paralyze the mysterious person, give ourselves a time to find the specific hiding place of the mysterious person, and at the same time give ourselves a chance to recuperate."
"I know quite a lot."
"Of course." Xue Ruitian shook his head and said proudly, "I also know that His Highness Prince Ning was originally going to be this target, but because my mother had a relationship with the eldest prince of the Jin Kingdom, my mother stepped forward to replace Ning. His Royal Highness has become this target. But there is no personal relationship between the mother and the eldest prince. There is a brotherly love between them, right?"
"The relationship between the eldest prince and Uncle Xue and Aunt Xue is a life-long friendship. To describe it as a brotherly love of mutual sympathy, it is still a little weak." Shen Haolin looked at Xue Ruitian, and then at Shen who was hiding behind him. Tea chuckled, "Okay, since he already knows, there's no need to hide it from him, okay?"
"No!" Shen Cha still held Shen Haolin's shoulders and stared at Xue Ruitian, "You haven't said how you knew it yet. After all, we didn't leave you any evidence or clues. Even when discussing these, They all avoid you, who did you hear this from?”
"You guys are tight-lipped and tight-lipped, but others who know the inside story are mouthy, right?" Look at how many people nodded in agreement.
Xue Ruitian laughed mischievously at Shen Cha's statement, "No, I shouldn't say that others are big talkers. I should say that I am a smart little person. Why can I hear the most useful information just by eavesdropping, right? "
