Chapter 52: The Women's Clothing Boss Shines Brightly
Thunderstorms, alternated.
In the evening, a torrential downpour came.
The torrential rain didn't last long and stopped after dark.
At this time, Chang'an is much more deserted than in the past. There is no need for a street drum to be beaten, and many people go home early.
Chang'an Prison, Women's Prison.
The empty cell is located in the innermost part.
In the narrow aisles, the light is dim.
A few oil lamps are also flickering on and off, which makes people even more inexplicably panicked.
Mingkong has been living here for thirteen days. For thirteen days, she wondered what was going on.
Until now, she hasn't figured out how she became a murderer.
She doesn't remember what happened that night.
I just remember hearing a cat meowing at night, so I came out to check. She remembers seeing blood stains on the steps of the cloister, then walking outside, tripping over Minghui's corpse. After that, she was knocked unconscious, and she didn't remember anything.
Who knocked her unconscious?
Why knock her unconscious?
Also, Why did you kill Minghui? And why frame her?
There are many questions that cannot be figured out.
For thirteen days, she was connecting this matter, but the more she thought about it, the more she didn't understand, and the more confused she became.
That's right, she doesn't have a good relationship with Minghui.
The reason why it is not good is because she is not used to seeing Minghui after becoming a monk, she still holds the posture of the original beauty. The first emperor died, and they all became yesterday's yellow flowers. In that case, let's practice hard and forget about the prosperity we enjoyed in the past.
The ancient Buddha green lantern is better than the desolation of the cold palace.
She had seen Emperor Gaozu's harem, which looked like a walking corpse.
In Lingbao Temple, although the life is a little harder, at least it is free.
What's not satisfied?
Ming Kong's thinking is very clear, so after becoming a monk, he practiced steadily and forgot his identity yesterday.
It is precisely because of this that she and Minghui are at odds.
In fact, she is at odds with most people, and the women who came out of the palace and become monks are still immersed in yesterday's sweet dreams. For this matter, she was ostracized, and later simply moved out on her own.
But to say that they have a deep hatred for Minghui?
How could it be!
They are all wretched, and what is there to resent?
There must be something wrong with overlooking!
Ming hollow heart, very clear.
Outside the window, the rain has stopped, but there is still a drizzle in the sky.
Seeing Zhu Chengsi, he was haggard and fragmented.
I didn't believe that I would cry more than I came, and I opened the box and inspected the pomegranate skirt. ”
A poem popped into her mind.
It was a poem written by her heart when she first became a monk. That person must have forgotten my existence; That person, now you are the Ninety-Five, how can you know my current situation?
Thinking of this, Mingkong couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a sad smile.
On a rainy day, it is inevitable that people will be depressed and cranky......
Mingkong took a deep breath and turned back to sit down in the center of the cell.
In front of her was a table with pen, ink, paper, and inkstones. Although she is a suspect and this is Chang'an Prison, in fact, whatever she needs, someone will arrange it for her. After all, she was a martial artist in front of Taizong.
On the paper, dense words are written.
From the time she left home to the day of the accident, she tried her best to remember in the past thirteen days.
There are a lot of things and a lot of tedious. It's not easy to sort out a clue, so she also has a headache.
On the third day of the third day of the third month of March, I went back to the house to rest after I was busy with my work.
I passed by outside Mingzhen's meditation room that day, and it was like ...... Wait, that day I remember that Master Mingzhen and Minghui were arguing about something at the gate of the Zen monastery. Minghui left very unhappy, and when Mingzhen returned to the house, he met me and greeted each other.
Mingzhen and Minghui never seem to intersect.
As she was writing this, she suddenly stopped writing and made a mark at the end.
It was also with this mark that some details that she had forgotten or did not care about slowly came to mind.
At this moment, a sound of footsteps came, interrupting Mingkong's train of thought.
She was a little unhappy, and when she looked up, she saw several women in palace clothes coming and stopping outside the cell.
"Martial arts talent, has always been good?"
Mingkong looked carefully and recognized the person who was the leader.
"Miss Su, why are you?"
"Hee-hee, it's me.
I'm here tonight, so I'm here to see you. ”
As Su Qingfang spoke, with a wave of his hand, a guard from the Inner Chamberlain Province stepped forward and opened the prison door.
"You guys go down, I'll whisper something here with the martial artists."
"Yes."
Those who serve the province of the Inner Chamberlain shall immediately withdraw.
Su Qingfang walked in with a palace maid who looked a little fat.
The palace maid was tall, with a hat on her head and a food box in her hand.
"Miss Su, I didn't expect to meet you here."
Mingkong stood up and walked towards Su Qingfang.
The fat maid passed by her, bent down at the table, and cleaned it up.
Mingkong felt that this fat palace maid had a sense of déjà vu, and her behavior seemed to be a little weird.
However, she didn't think too much about it, and only looked at Su Qingfang.
"The daughter of the dignified Left Guard Zhonglang General didn't like red makeup, but she went to the Taishi Bureau to steal the teacher, but after being discovered, she almost gave her life. I still remember that when the first emperor heard about this, he was also dumbfounded. When Ling Zun pleaded in front of the first emperor, I was beside me. At that time, I wondered what kind of strange woman could do such a thing. ”
Su Qingfang smiled and said softly, "I remember, you were ordered to visit me that time. ”
"But now, I'm a prisoner."
Mingkong smiled, and there was no trace of loss on his face.
The light in the cell is much better than in the hallway. Su Qingfang looked at her and was speechless for a while.
"Okay, let's say, am I going to die?"
It sounded like she was joking.
Su Qingfang nodded, and said with a straight face: "Zongzheng Temple has made a decision, and you will be executed on the twelfth of this month." ”
"Why?"
"I don't know."
Su Qingfang said: "I asked my father, and he didn't know much about it, only said that it seemed to be related to King Wu." You also know that my father can't ask too much about this kind of thing, anyway, in the end, Zongzheng Temple made an inexplicable decision. ”
"King Wu?"
Mingkong's rather heroic eyebrows raised.
"I don't remember, I had a holiday with King Wu."
"Then I don't know!"
"Miss Su, thank you very much."
Mingkong didn't say anything more, folded his hands together, and saluted Su Qingfang.
"Martial Talent ......"
"I am now known as Mingkong, and the martial arts are already in the past."
"Master Mingkong, there is someone who wants to see you."
"Who?"
"He's been helping you, even stupidly looking for someone, trying to sneak in, but I stopped him."
Mingkong was stunned for a moment, and in the midst of the lightning and flint, a spiritual light flashed in her mind, and she immediately turned around.
The fat palace maid slowly took off her hat.
Burst!
Ming Kong saw that solemn face, and laughed for no reason.
When she smiled, she even smiled with Su Qingfang.
"Huaiying, how did you become such a ghost?"
Mingkong smiled and trembled, as if she was about to be executed, and it couldn't affect her mood at this moment.
It's no wonder that Di Ge Lao, who was famous in later generations, turned out to be a women's clothing boss at this moment.
also tied his hair in a bun, and put a golden step on his head.
Rouge was touched on the chubby face, and there were red lips......
Di Renjie's face was flushed at this moment.
I don't know if it's because of the willingness to rub rouge, or because of shame and anger.
It's all Su Dawei's fault!
He cursed to himself.
What else is okay, seeing Mingkong and Su Qingfang like this, he knows what he should be like now.
"Don't laugh!"
"No, Huaiying, you let me finish laughing first, I can't stand it."
It's okay that Di Renjie didn't speak, but when he spoke, Mingkong couldn't hold back anymore, and squatted down holding his stomach.
And Su Qingfang looked like she wanted to hold back. But from the way she shrugged her shoulders, you knew how hard she endured.
"Mage, you talk to Di Jun, I'll go out and help you control the wind."
Su Qingfang held back a smile and turned around and walked out of the prison door.
Mingkong was still laughing, laughing so much that Di Renjie stood there, very embarrassed, and didn't know how to put his hands.
"Okay, okay, I'm not smiling."
After laughing for a while, Mingkong finally stopped laughing and stood up.
It's just that when she saw Di Renjie's fat face smeared with rouge, she couldn't help laughing again.
"Huaiying, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was wrong."
As he spoke, Mingkong turned around and turned his back to Di Renjie.
"What do you mean, mage?"
"Huaiying, don't blame me, I just can't see your face, otherwise I can't help it."
Di Renjie had an angry expression.
Mingkong took two deep breaths and tried to calm his emotions.
"Huaiying, thank you!"
"What?"
"I am very happy that you came to see me, which at least shows that in the life of a poor monk, being a man is not too much of a failure, and there is still someone who dares to risk death."
"Mage, I'm not the only one."
"Oh?"
"And Liu Niangzi, and Ami......
They are all thinking about you, but they don't know how to help you. ”
"Ami, are you back?"
"Well, it's back, and it's saved my life."
Mingkong's delicate body trembled, and he turned around.
This time, she didn't smile again, but looked at Di Renjie with a solemn expression and said, "Saved you?" Huaiying, what's going on? ”
"When you had an accident that day, I started to figure out what to do.
It happened that Miss Su came to the autopsy that day, and I accompanied her, and it was late to go back. As a result, at the bridge head of the back gate of Lingbao Temple, he was attacked by ghosts. If Ami hadn't come back that day, Xiaoyu would have sensed that something was wrong and rushed to me, and I would have died. ”
"Xiaoyu, is it okay?"
"It's good, and I miss you."
When Ming Kong heard this, a smile appeared on his face.
But that smile disappeared in the blink of an eye.
She looked at Di Renjie and said, "You just said that you were serving ghosts?" But is it weird to be manipulated? ”
"It's not weird, is it?" Di Renjie said: "To be precise, it should be the weirdness of extracting the weird essence and cultivating it." Well, that's what Ami told me. He said that there is still a difference between ghosts and weirdness. ”
Mingkong was even more puzzled, "How does Ami know this?" ”
"He's a stranger now."
"Ami has become an alien?"
Ming Kong was very surprised when he heard the news.
However, she quickly calmed down again, shook her head and said softly, "This is also his fate."
When he survived the strange tide, it shows that he is blessed. If you don't die in a great calamity, you will have a blessing in the future. It's just that he didn't expect him to become an alien. The last time I saw him, he didn't say anything. This bad boy has also learned to keep secrets. ”
"Last time, he wasn't an alien."
Di Renjie said: "This matter is a long story, not a few words can be said clearly.
Anyway, Ami has become an alien, and his ability is not small. He cares about you very much, and so does the eldest lady, and everyone believes that you are innocent. ”
The smile on Mingkong's face was even brighter.
She said softly: "Ami and the eldest lady are both good people. ”
"Originally, I also wanted Ami to use the identity of a bad person to track down the murderer for you. But Miss Su told me that Zongzheng Temple was going to execute you, so I discussed it with Ami and felt that I had to see you and ask you something. ”
"What's the matter?"
Di Renjie smiled bitterly: "Originally, I wanted to ask you something about the case, but now......
Mage, I must know now, what are your plans? “
"Me?"
Mingkong looked at Di Renjie suspiciously, but immediately reacted.
"Is my plan important?"
"Of course!"
Di Renjie said: "No matter what you plan, Ami and I will help you." ”
"Then you know that if you help me, you will probably get killed.
Now it's Zongzheng Temple who wants to kill me, and it's not a small person who wants to deal with me. I still haven't figured out the cause and effect of this. But I'm sure it's not easy! If you want to help me, it's going to be dangerous. ”
Di Renjie smiled.
That fat face smeared with rouge looked a little funny.
"Mage, you don't have to worry about that.
Since we've decided to help you, it's not a shame to lose your head. Before I came today, I had already written a letter and sent someone to my hometown in Taiyuan to cut off all relations with my family. Ami also decided to send the eldest lady away. Now, it's just up to you......"
There was a touch of water in Mingkong's beautiful big eyes.
"Why?"
"Ami said, you saved the lives of his mother and son, and he must help you."
"What about you?"
"Me?"
Di Renjie suddenly felt weak, lowered his head, and said after a while: "Where righteousness is, it is not necessary to break your bones." Besides, I know that you have been framed, and I believe in your innocence, how can you watch innocent people die? ”
Mingkong looked at Di Renjie and didn't say a word.
After a while, she said softly, "Huaiying, thank you." ”
"And what about your decision?"
Mingkong smiled and said softly: "Actually, no matter what I decide, you will do that, right?" ”
Di Renjie's body trembled and did not answer.
Master Mingkong walked to the table, picked up the stack of paper full of words on the table, and handed it to Di Renjie.
"Huaiying, this is all the rights and wrongs I have experienced since I became a monk.
I don't know if it's useful, and I'm in prison and can't investigate, so I'll bother you and Ami. ”
"That ......"
"I'm not leaving!"
"Mage!"
"Huaiying, I know your intentions, and I am very grateful.
I also know that you and Ami ...... Especially Ami, that bad boy, is not afraid of heaven and earth, and dares to do anything. However, I can't go. If I'm gone, doesn't that mean I'm really guilty? Wu Meiniang is a daughter in this life, although she is a daughter, she is not afraid of life and death. You can die for me, but I will never agree, let alone remain incognito.
Wu Meiniang, standing up to the sky, even if she dies, she will never steal her life! ”
