Feiyun watched Xu Zhitang leave, feeling very nervous. He knew that Xu Zhitang would not give up easily. Although they had no intention of taking action at Yuquan Temple, they would definitely ambush on the way to Luoyang.
It seemed that Feiyun wanted to remind Wu Zetian to be careful. Since Xu Zhitang saw himself here, he would have guessed that Wu Zetian was in the temple, and would naturally follow her secretly.
Feiyun saw that Wu Zetian and others had not come out yet, so he walked into the Heavenly King's Palace to see if anything had happened. He went in and took a closer look in the crowd, but did not find Wu Zetian.
Feiyun was shocked and looked around hurriedly. At the door of a Zen room, he saw Wu Yong and Wu Yuan standing guard outside. Feiyun felt relieved now, guessing that Wu Zetian must be talking to the abbot of the temple.
Feiyun did not want Wu Yong and Wu Yuan to discover him, so he withdrew from the Palace of Heavenly Kings. He came to the door and continued to observe the people walking back and forth.
At this time, Xu Zhitang and Xing'er had disappeared into the crowd. Feiyun looked around, but found no trace of the two of them. At this time, I heard someone from behind shouting: "Young Master Lin!"
Feiyun turned around quickly and took a closer look, only to see it was Li Gui. Next to Li Gui stood girl Pei Yanran, both of whom were looking at Feiyun with smiles on their faces.
After Pei Shouyi left with Li Gui and others that day, when he passed a farmer's house, he gave the farmer a lot of money and stayed temporarily. Although no bodyguards were killed in the assassination of Wu Zetian this time, many people were injured.
Pei Shouyi asked Pei Dashan to take care of the injured, and Pei Dashan obeyed the order. Li Gui said angrily: "Today it's the damn Three Heroes of Xiaoxiang who ruined our big event again!"
Pei Fu also said viciously: "Uncle, it seems we have to find a way to get rid of the three heroes of Xiaoxiang first, otherwise it will be difficult for us to successfully kill this evil woman Wu Zetian!"
Pei Shouyi shook his head and disagreed with Pei Fu's view. Pei Shouyi believed that Lin Feiyun and Wu Zetian were not from Wu Zetian. From these two assassinations, he had already seen that the relationship between Lin Feiyun and Wu Zetian was not very harmonious.
Pei Shouyi felt that he had to find a way to drive a wedge between Lin Feiyun and Wu Zetian, and eventually turn them against each other. Today, Li Gui actually successfully provoked a feud between Lin Feiyun and Wu Wei, but Wu Zetian forcibly suppressed it.
But the conflict between Lin Feiyun and Wu Wei's group has already formed, and it may be difficult to resolve it. Pei Shouyi told Li Gui and Pei Fu that they must be very polite when meeting Lin Feiyun and the others in the future and not offend them.
Pei Shouyi believed that as long as Wu Zetian no longer trusts Lin Feiyun, Lin Feiyun and the others will leave Wu Zetian sooner or later. When the time comes, it will be easy to assassinate Wu Zetian.
Pei Fu was still dissatisfied, thinking that this time it was purely because Lin Feiyun and the others suddenly appeared and disrupted the original arrangement that the success fell short. With the current strength of his side, he can definitely defeat the combination of Lin Feiyun and Wu Wei.
Pei Shouyi said unhappily: "Fu'er, even if we can defeat them, many of us will lose our lives. We can't do something like killing a thousand enemies and damaging ourselves eight hundred. These bodyguards all have families. , what will their families do if something unexpected happens to them?"
After hearing Pei Shouyi's words, Pei Fu was speechless for a moment. Seeing her brother's embarrassed expression, Yan Ran quickly said: "Uncle, my brother also said something out of anger. Don't take it seriously. What should we do next?"
Pei Shouyi looked at Yanran, his expression suddenly softened, and he smiled slightly and said, "Yanran still has intentions. This is what we should focus on. Master, what do you think we should do next?"
Li Gui knew that Pei Shouyi intended to test himself. He thought for a moment and said: "Master, according to our previous discussion, Wu Zetian must go to Yuquan Temple this time. We should rush to Dangyang first and make preparations in advance. When Wu Zetian arrives After Yuquan Temple, we will look for opportunities to attack."
Pei Shouyi believed that Li Gui's previous idea was correct, and they should indeed arrive at Dangyang in advance. But Pei Shouyi did not agree to attack Wu Zetian in Dangyang City.
After all, Dangyang City is a county town with a dense population. Yuquan Temple is also a popular temple. There are many people who come to pray to gods and Buddhas and visit. Once something happens, it will quickly attract the attention of the county government.
Pei Shouyi felt that he should take action when Wu Zetian left Dangyang and returned to Luoyang. Now they can ignore Wu Zetian's whereabouts and rush to Dangyang first. Arrange good people near Yuquan Temple and monitor them closely. At the same time, people were sent to look for a good place for an ambush on the road leading to Luoyang.
Once Wu Zetian appears in Yuquan Temple, people will be sent to watch closely. Wu Zetian left Dangyang City, passed the ambush site, and launched an attack. But the attack should not be targeted at Lin Feiyun and the others, only Wu Wei and others.
This can weaken the power to protect Wu Zetian and deepen Wuwei and distrust of Lin Feiyun. Lin Feiyun would definitely come forward when the time came, so Pei Shouyi deliberately betrayed him and voluntarily left. In this way, Wu Zetian will also doubt Lin Feiyun.
Yanran suddenly asked: "Uncle, what if your divorce plan doesn't work?"
Pei Shouyi smiled slightly and said, "It's a long way from Dangyang to Luoyang, and we have plenty of opportunities. If it doesn't work once, just try it a few more times. I believe they will eventually turn against each other, so we can't be impatient!"
Li Gui thought Pei Shouyi's idea was good. Besides, he had no other better way, so he naturally agreed to Pei Shouyi's arrangement.
The next day, Pei Shouyi asked Pei Dahai, who was slightly injured, to return to Lingnan with the other injured people. He took the remaining people and rushed to Dangyang City.
Two days later, Pei Shouyi and others arrived in Dangyang and stayed at an inn near Yuquan Temple. On the one hand, Pei Shouyi sent Pei Fu to lead a few people to closely monitor the surroundings of Yuquan Temple. On the one hand, he sent Pei Dashan to lead people to check the terrain on the road to Luoyang.
As soon as Wu Zetian entered Yuquan Temple today, someone quickly reported Pei Shouyi. Pei Shouyi immediately asked Li Gui and Yanran to become pilgrims and go to Yuquan Temple to check it out.
Pei Shouyi told Li Gui not to take action when he saw Wu Zetian. If you meet Lin Feiyun and the others, take the initiative to say hello. It would be best if Wu Wei could see him talking to Lin Feiyun.
Li Gui naturally understood what Pei Shouyi meant and agreed repeatedly. Soon, Li Gui and Yanran came to Yuquan Temple. At the entrance of Tianwang Palace, I saw Lin Feiyun as expected. Li Gui was overjoyed and greeted him immediately.
Feiyun naturally felt strange when he saw that Li Gui and the two were polite, smiling, and not hostile at all. But since the other party took the initiative to show his goodwill, Feiyun naturally couldn't refuse him thousands of miles away. What's more, Feiyun didn't want to have any grudges with Jianghu people, and he was Pei Shouyi's apprentice.
Feiyun smiled slightly, bowed his hands and said, "It turns out to be Master Li. Nice to meet you! Nice to meet you!"
Li Gui bowed his hand in return, pointed at Yanran and said, "Young Master Lin, this is my master's niece, Miss Yanran, you met last time!"
Feiyun raised his hand to Yanran again and said, "It turns out she is Senior Pei's niece. No wonder her martial arts is so strong. Lin Feiyun has met Miss Pei before!"
After Yanran returned the gift, she smiled sweetly and said: "My little girl has heard of the name of Shaoxia Lin for a long time. When we passed through Nanyue and Tanzhou, we often heard people talk about the names of the three heroes of Xiaoxiang. How can I be called strong with my little skill? , young hero, please stop teasing me!"
Feiyun said seriously: "Miss Pei, I definitely don't mean this. At such a young age, the girl was able to tie with Wu Yuan that day, which shows that her martial arts skills are extraordinary."
Li Gui then said: "Young Master Lin, why are you free to come to the temple today? Do you want to ask the Buddha to bless your trip to Luoyang safely?"
Feiyun laughed a few times and said: "I'm afraid Buddha can't bless me, but I hope Master Li won't come to make trouble for me again. I can't thank you enough!"
Yanran said with a smile: "Young Master Lin, we don't want to embarrass you. My uncle has been praising you, saying that you are a chivalrous person. He also specially told us that if we meet the Three Heroes of Xiaoxiang, we must not be rude."
Feiyun was surprised when he saw that Yanran had scolded him angrily last time, but now she had a different attitude. He could only say a few perfunctory words to Yanran's words.
Feiyun then asked: "Why do you two have the leisure to come to the temple? Are you also here to ask for Buddha's blessing?"
Li Gui shook his head and said: "I don't believe this. If the Buddha really has a spirit, he will not let evil people live so freely. My junior sister loves the excitement and insists on coming to see it, so I have no choice but to accompany her!"
Feiyun knew that the evil person in Li Gui's mouth was Wu Zetian, so he pretended not to hear and just said "Oh" without saying anything. He estimated that Li Gui must have followed Wu Zetian and came to Yuquan Temple.
But Li Gui and the two never mentioned Wu Zetian, and Feiyun couldn't even mention it. Feiyun hopes that Li Gui will not meet Wu Wei, otherwise it will be very troublesome. Feiyun wanted Li Gui to leave early, and after saying a few words, he fell silent.
Li Gui saw through Feiyun's intentions. He looked around, but did not find Wu Wei and the others, so he had to continue standing next to Feiyun and chatting with Feiyun.
Feiyun had no intention of chatting with him and was about to leave when he saw Wu Yuan running over. Wu Yuan came to Feiyun and found Li Gui and Yanran.
Wu Yuan was shocked and angry, and was about to draw his sword. Feiyun quickly reached out to hold his hand and said, "Brother Wu, don't be impulsive. This is not a place for fighting. I'm just here to have fun, so don't be nervous."
Wu Yuan's hand was held down by Feiyun and he couldn't pull out the knife at all. After listening to Feiyun's words, I also felt that I should not be impulsive. Since Li Gui is here, it means that Pei Shouyi may also be nearby. He didn't say anything, just stared at Li Gui and Yanran fiercely.
When Yanran saw Wu Yuan glaring at her, she smiled coquettishly and said, "You don't have to stare at me like this. I'm here for fun today and I have no interest in fighting with you. If you are interested and insist on competing with me, you still have to compete with me." Please wait for another day!”
Feiyun was afraid that they would argue, so he quickly said: "Master Li, Miss Pei, I think you should leave here as soon as possible to avoid embarrassing me!"
Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Li Gui said: "Since Lin Shaoxia said this, we will listen to you and leave now. When Lin Shaoxia sees Miss Meimei, please say hello to me. I haven't thanked her properly for what happened last time." Woolen cloth!"
