"Zhao Du, you immediately let out a rumor," asked this, Wang Juju understood what had happened. Maybe this great monk has done something before, and it has been discovered, and this person includes the Taoist priest who assassinated him. Then this Taoist priest found Shaning and used this incident to coerce Shaning to do something. Shaning didn't agree, he knew this Taoist priest again, and knew that this Taoist priest was dangerous, so he gave some money, and gave an explanation to his daughter, and finally committed suicide.

It may not be a suicide, but it must be confirmed at the scene.

Wang Ju shouted Zhao Du to the side and whispered: "You just said that some squires found the Taoist priest who wanted to murder me, and wanted to trick him into committing murder to me again, this Taoist priest was afraid that his strength was insufficient, and he threatened Shaning, and used Shaning's prestige among the people to assist him, so that he could kill me more successfully, so that he could get the reward of Western Xia, and the second could get the reward of these squires." ”

This statement is a bit flawed.

Maybe Shaning has a bit of prestige among the people, but he is a figure in the Buddhist world, and Buddhism is not a very aggressive Western religion in the first place.

Assassinating Wang Ju, what help will Shaning have? Besides, Wang Ju will soon move to Sanyuan, which is farther away from Yunyang.

But this was originally an era of superstition, and as long as the rumors got out, there would be people who would give all kinds of strange explanations.

"Zi'an, yes, this opportunity can be used."

Wang Ju didn't kill the last person, I don't know how many people fell through the glasses.

However, Huang Liang and Tao Qing were a little disapproving.

In fact, this is also a kind of moderation technique, the law of the Qin Dynasty is fierce, and Liu Bang only has three chapters of the law, which is from the sky. When the laws of the Eastern Han Dynasty were relaxed, Zhuge Liang picked up the Legalists again and used them strictly. And Shu is more peaceful.

The same was true of the Song Dynasty, and after the arrival of Song Renzong, the law became wider and wider. This is not necessarily a good thing. So after Wang Juka smacked his head a few times, he shook the squires together. It turned out to be a good opportunity. For example, shouldn't Li Yuanwai be killed? Shouldn't those two lawyers be killed? Kill it, and the rest will be easy to deal with. didn't kill, the squires in the back watched again.

But Wang Ju said the court.

The two didn't hold out anymore.

But when a new problem comes, you are ruthless, and we can't afford to offend, and then we won't send people to spread rumors and attack you, and we won't burn the county government. That's it, what can you do with us?

In short, in this era, if it touches the ground, it will make officials feel miserable.

Wang Ju was also looking for an opportunity, so when the opportunity came, he immediately took advantage of it. As long as the wind spreads, it means that Wang Ju's butcher knife is still holding and has not been put down.

Zhao Du understood.

"Little lady, let's go to Zhenxi Temple." Wang Ju said.

The little girl got on the donkey. Sobing, he rode a donkey and followed Wang Ju and ran to Zhenxi Temple.

"I take the liberty of asking, little lady. What is your name? ”

"Ma Yaoyao."

Ma Yaoyao...... Do you want to avenge your father? ”

"Yes."

"Do you dare to do a risky thing for your father?"

"Dare."

"Very good," Wang said, but did not say anything risky for her.

"Second eldest son, you immediately go to Yunyang County first and report the matter to Maozhi County."

"Ming Gong ......"

"Little lady Ma, you may not have figured it out, my right is to work as a drainer, as long as it involves repairing the canal, no matter how many counties Zhengbai has to offer. Even in Chang'an Capital, I can intervene. But I don't have the right to meddle in this case. I can only say that I am involved. The presiding judge of the murder case is still the position of the county magistrate. Do you understand? ”

"Can Ming Gong participate?"

"You can't say that you participate, you can only say that you are assisting."

Lu Ping asked in a low voice on the side: "What if that person can't be caught?" This little lady is in danger. ”

"If you catch it, you may not be safe, unless that Taoist priest is just a person."

Lu Ping didn't ask anymore.

He has been with Wang Ju for a long time, and the people say that Wang Ju is a living Bodhisattva, which is definitely not right, but Wang Ju is not evil-hearted, or he is not the kind of little good person that the people preach, and he rarely even gives alms to beggars, but maybe Wang Ju is the real great good. Anyway, if you think about these things deeply, it's a brainstorm, and he can't figure it out. But there is one thing, Wang Ju will not let this little girl die. But Lu Pingzhen felt sorry for Shaning, Erniu was right, putting this real great bodhisattva, right under his nose, the big monk couldn't even think of it, it seems that reciting Buddhist scriptures has broken his brain.

When Wang Ju came to Zhenxi Temple, he found that Mao Zhixian had arrived with the officials.

Because of the construction of the canal, the two have also dealt with each other.

This is also a very low-key magistrate, like Du Zhubo and them, they are representatives of most Song Dynasty officials, not good or bad, with a good boss to lead, they can play a role immediately. If you are a bad boss, you may be able to fall at any time.

The relationship with Wang Ju is average, he doesn't have much support for the canal, and he doesn't obstruct it.

The two met and had a slight chill with each other.

Mao Zhixian glanced at Ma Yaoyao, but he came, but he was not invited by the second chief, but the monks in the temple reported it, and immediately brought the officials to inspect it.

"What do you say?"

"It was self-killing, but Zen Master Shaning didn't leave any clues." Mao Zhixian looked at the many people who came and replied.

He was puzzled.

The people who came in were also puzzled.

To be precise, Buddhism and Confucianism have many things in common, even including some Western sects.

Especially for life, it is to ask the world to cherish life and oppose suicide, but to sacrifice oneself in upholding the sacred faith. Confucianism has a similar explanation, but it is not as clear as Buddhism.

There are a lot of people who come here, and as Mao Zhixian said, this Shaning Zen master usually accumulates good deeds and virtues, and is a good monk. But because of his suicide, everyone was a little disappointed.

Wang Ju thought about it, but still briefly told the truth.

"It's actually the one who assassinated Zi'an......"

"It's basically, Mao Zhixian, you ask the official to ask, and see if anyone else in the temple has seen this Taoist priest."

"Okay," Mao Zhixian immediately instructed the official to inquire, and then asked: "What did Zen Master Shaning do to let that Taoist priest grab the handle." ”

"I don't know, maybe I'll find out in the end. It's just a trivial thing in our eyes, but the more these moral people, the more they demand from themselves. It's often these little things that can coerce them. ”

"Zi'an has a point."

"Can you let me take a look?"

"Okay. It's just a little ugly. ”

"Two Ming dukes, can you let the people's daughter take a look at her father." Ma Yaoyao said.

"Okay, but you wait outside for a while." Wang Ju said, this little girl may not have understood what Mao Zhixian meant by being ugly. What would a person who hanged himself look like? Tongue. Think about a monk who has a good practice and stretches out his tongue, isn't that ugly?

The two walked in.

Outside, some monks were piling firewood, preparing to incinerate Shaning's body.

But they looked sad, too.

The reason why Buddhism is prevalent is its peaceful teachings. The second is the theory of cause and effect, and the third is the ease of "ascending to heaven". But it is true that some monks have done well, it is precisely because of these monks that Buddhism is too prosperous and has become one of the important burdens of the Song Dynasty, so there is a mention of Xue Xiang, but Wang Ju does not know for the time being.

Shaning had already been put down by the monks in the temple, a middle-aged monk with a very delicate appearance, about his early forties, Wang Ju looked at it. said: "Mao Zhixian, can you let Yu Zuo put his tongue in, and then let the little lady Ma take one last look at him." It can also make the people outside feel better. ”

"Okay."

Wang Ju walked around the room again.

The walls of the room are empty, and it seems that there are really no clues.

So he walked out and let Ma Yaoyao in, and after a while, Ma Yaoyao's cry came from inside.

Then a great crowd of people came.

The abbot of Zhenxi Temple kindly invited Wang Ju and Mao Zhixian to sit in his meditation room.

"Keep an eye on it," Wang Ju whispered to Lu Ping.

"Whoa."

After Wang Ju finished speaking, he came to the Zen room at the back.

"Two Ming dukes, just now the old man heard the official asking the chief of the Songping Dao."

"Michicho Matsudaira?"

"That's the Dao Chief."

"Tell me, where is he from, and where is he now?"

"The old man doesn't know either. He had come once the year before and said he wanted to see Shanin. Shanin also saw it, and then came several times later. That's why the novices in the temple knew his name. But I don't know where he lives, but the accent seems to be from Fengxiang Mansion. ”

"Fengxiang Mansion?" Wang Ju and Mao Zhixian were both a little surprised.

Wang Ju's methods were resolute, and many people were grateful, and there were a few people who hated him, especially those from the Western Xia side. However, Wang Juke has never been to Fengxiang Mansion.

Shaning is a native of Yunyang, since he has done a bad thing, almost no one knows about it, so why would a Taoist priest from Fengxiang Mansion know?

"Master, do you know what Zen Master Shaning did before and was coerced by that person?" Wang Ju asked politely.

"I don't know very well, at least I didn't do it before Shaning became a monk, in that case, that thing will be a long time away."

Wang Ju and Mao Zhixian frowned.

The older you go, the harder it is to find clues.

"The old man was also shocked when he received the report from the temple in the morning. It's just coercion by gangsters, and it's okay. ”

"Master, I will give Zen Master Shaning a fair deal with Mao Zhixian."

"Then thank you to the two Ming Gongs."

The two sat for a while, and when they came out, Mao Zhixian said, "It seems that we want to ask the officials of Fengxiang Mansion to come forward to help." ”

Just because he forced Sha Ning to death, he couldn't mobilize the people, but this Taoist leader actually assassinated a court official, which was a taboo for all scholars. Wang Ju nodded, he couldn't underestimate the ancients. Maybe Xiao Feng is just a brave general of the Liao Kingdom, and it is impossible to have the Xiao Feng written by Jin Daxia, but in this era, there are indeed a few people who are not weak. For example, the man who was invited by the Ding family at the beginning. Don't look at Wang Ju's insistence on exercising, if he is alone, he is not this ambitious opponent.

If this person doesn't find out, Wang Ju is also a little restless.

And Shaning's instructions also made Wang Ju feel more worried, which shows that this person is an unscrupulous person, and even innocent girls will be harmed.

Then he rode back.

Erniu asked worriedly: "Big brother, what should I do with that little lady?" ”

"That Taoist priest is a cunning big fish, if you want to catch it, you must have a bait." (To be continued) R655
