Chapter 117 Like an hourglass
There is a dilapidated temple ten kilometers away from the capital.
Under the altar, two elegant young men and a three-year-old baby waited here, looking outside furtively from time to time. It was pitch black.
Zong Yaozhi murmured: "Little Ying'an, let's just stay here. What if Jiang Jie deceived us and deliberately led us here? What if he wants to run away?"
Little Ying'an murmured: "He wouldn't dare to do it even if he had ten guts."
She planted divine power in Jiang Jie. Now Jiang Jie is her eyes in Furong City. She knows his every move clearly. Let alone running away, even leaving Furong City is difficult.
Unless she agrees, his skin will be rotten and he will die with foam at the mouth.
After everything in Furong City is dealt with, Jiang Jie will go to the capital first, and then to the surrounding countries. By then, every country will have her spies, which is equivalent to spying on the whole world from a God's perspective.
Why worry about the failure of the plan?
The fourteenth master shook the two people with his arm, signaling them to be silent, and whispered: "People are coming!"
The uncle and nephew looked at each other very synchronously, then covered their mouths tacitly, and looked at the newcomer with wide eyes.
It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, but once you look, isn't this... the deceased Master Jiang?
Zong Yaozhi and the fourteenth master's faces also changed a little.
On that day, the Jiang family was exterminated, and the two of them went forward to take a look. The execution ground was very bloody, with blood flowing like a river. The bodies of the Jiang family were scattered all over the ground. For fear of being implicated, no one dared to go forward to collect the bodies of the Jiang family.
The Jiang Taifu on that day... was clearly dead!
In the end, the Minister of Justice sent people to throw a group of people to the mass grave. It is said that the mass grave was howling all night.
Jiang Taifu looked inside, standing very straight, with a dignified and upright aura.
"Is anyone there?"
His voice was deep and cold, and it was clear that it was Jiang Taifu himself.
The Fourteenth Master frowned, and a strange look flashed in his eyes.
He looked at Zong Yaozhi, and the two exchanged glances tacitly, and then understood each other.
Little Ying'an looked at the Fourteenth Master and whispered, "Fourteenth Uncle, please pretend to be a ghost. I have something to verify."
Although the Fourteenth Master was very reluctant, he had no reason to refuse Ying'an's invitation.
He lowered his eyes, took out the wig and white robe that he had prepared long ago from Zong Yaozhi's pocket, put them on, and quietly took the Buddha statue.
Little Ying'an and Zong Yaozhi under the altar stared at Master Jiang intently.
When Little Ying'an raised his hand, a cold wind blew in the broken temple, and the altar was rustling.
Zong Yaozhi looked at Xiao Ying'an helplessly. Just when he wanted to remind her to be quiet and not blow the shabby altar apart, the Fourteenth Master hung down from the beam. He was so scared that he grabbed the altar. First, he was afraid. Second, he was really afraid that the altar would collapse. The pain would be small, but it would be embarrassing.
"Master Jiang, accept your fate..." Zong Yaozhi pinched his throat to dub the Fourteenth Master.
Master Jiang took several steps back in fear, and his voice trembled a lot.
"Who are you! Why are you playing tricks! Where is Jiang Jie! Where did you take him?"
As soon as Zong Yaozhi said this, Xiao Ying'an let out a small "
huh". Zong Yaozhi immediately turned his head to look at her and said in a low voice: "What's wrong?"
Xiao Ying'an shook her head and motioned Zong Yaozhi to continue.
"Who is Jiang Jie? I don't know him. I am the fourteenth prince of the late Daling, named Xuezhen."
Upon hearing this, Master Jiang sat down on the ground, pointing at the Fourteenth Master and unable to speak for a long time.
"You, you, you... ghost!"
Xiao Ying'an sneered.
No wonder she always felt that Jiang Jie looked familiar, it turned out that he looked like this Master Jiang.
She had the honor of meeting Master Jiang once, and because he was an important figure, she was more impressed.
Jiang Jie's face looked very much like Master Jiang.
No wonder they both have the surname Jiang.
It turns out that Jiang Jie is the illegitimate son of Master Jiang!
The two have been meeting in secret, and Jiang Jie was lucky enough to escape when the ten clans were exterminated.
No!
The story describes that Jiang Jie is from Dongdu, and was persuaded by the heroine to surrender. He worked for her wholeheartedly, ran a casino, and mastered the world's intelligence, so that later the heroine controlled the lifeline of the entire Daling.
So... Jiang Jie has actually been working for Dongdu!
On the surface, he supports the heroine, but in fact, he has been secretly planning to attack Daling.
And Master Jiang is a chess piece planted by Dongdu in the capital of Daling.
Could it be that the scumbag father found out the complicated relationship of Master Jiang and ordered the extermination of the ten clans and killing all those related to him.
Now thinking back, because of the struggle in the harem, he exterminated the ten clans of the Jiang family in anger. This reason is not tenable. In fact, if it is put in the history books, the scumbag father will be spit on for thousands of years.
It can only be that there is a hidden secret that the people cannot know.
The harem is used to describe the world.
The harem governs the world.
The harem is hidden from the world.
He is like, the state officials are allowed to set fires, but the people are not allowed to light lamps. He
forcibly links the harem with the previous dynasty, but does not allow the concubines in the harem to participate in politics.
Double-standard dog!
On the other side, Master Jiang was so scared that he had incontinence, and the whole broken temple was filled with a foul smell.
It was very disgusting.
The Fourteenth Master snorted coldly, took off the wig on his head, threw off the white robe on his body, jumped down, and stood steadily in front of Master Jiang.
Zong Yaozhi also crawled out from under the altar holding little Ying'an.
The three of them looked at Master Jiang lying on the ground, their eyes full of coldness.
The Fourteenth Master said solemnly: "The Third Prince of the East Crossing, you actually devoted yourself to Daling as an unknown little tutor, worked hard for decades, accompanied the prince and the emperor day and night, taught and nurtured the emperor to grow up. What on earth have you done in Daling all these years?"
His voice was filled with coldness and pity for all living beings.
He didn't even dare to think about how many spies Dongdu had planted in the capital over the years. Even the imperial tutor of the palace...
saw the big picture from the small. The whole Daling is now... like an hourglass... vulnerable...
What's more terrifying is that he was once the tutor of many princes. Who knows how much of their wine and knowledge they learned in daily life have been tampered with. Maybe all cognition is not like this. Maybe the Daling in the folk is not as prosperous as the tutor said, but... the people are displaced, corrupt officials are everywhere, refugees and robbers are rampant, the government is corrupt, and the people are living in misery!
Just the city of Furong made him notice something strange.
As for the other cities...
he didn't even dare to think about it!
Tutor Jiang looked at the three people and suddenly laughed.
"Fourteenth Master! You are really still alive! I was worried that I would not be able to explain to the emperor of our country, but now the problem has been solved."
Zong Yaozhi frowned in confusion, and pointed his sword at Master Jiang: "Speak clearly! Isn't the emperor who crossed the sea to the east a woman? What does she want to do with Xue Zhen! Is she going to attack Daling with Xue Zhen! In order to expand the territory and occupy the land of Daling!"
Master Jiang's eyes did not move, but stared at the Fourteenth Master and opened his lips.
"Female emperors need husbands with prominent family backgrounds and unable to give birth to children to stabilize their positions. They don't have to worry about being usurped, and they also have real power. The son of the prime minister can't even figure out such a simple thing?"
