Chapter 204 Ning Yongnian's Plan
"Your Majesty, this..."
On the high platform, when Li Huaizhong saw the old monk suddenly appear, the look of astonishment on his face was beyond description.
There are only a handful of people in the whole Daning who know this monk, and he is one of them, except for a few old guys in the Buddhist community.
Monk Jingyuan.
He was once the most talented disciple in the Folian Temple. Later, he practiced evil methods secretly and was said to have been secretly executed. However, he actually escaped and has been missing since then.
In fact, if it weren’t for the Buddhist stick engraved with inscriptions in the old monk’s hand, Li Huaizhong would definitely not have recognized it at this moment.
"Your Majesty, is this person Jing Yuan?"
"yes."
"Then why would he?"
"Of course it was arranged by me."
Ning Yongnian smiled and said, "Old Li, do you know why I asked you to tell Wei Changtian about the Liu family's conspiracy in advance?"
"I dare not speculate rashly."
Li Huaizhong collected his thoughts and lowered his head to answer, "But in my humble opinion, the emperor must want to lead the Liu and Wei families into a life-and-death struggle."
"This is just one of the reasons. If that's the case, wouldn't it be better to let the Liu family kill Wei Changtian?"
Ning Yongnian shook his head with interest.
"Guess again."
“.”
Li Huaizhong frowned and thought for a moment, then slowly asked tentatively: "Does the emperor want to drag Buddhism into this as well?"
“Hahaha, that’s true.”
Ning Yongnian seemed to be somewhat happy: "You also know the evil method that Jing Yuan practices. It requires a woman to be the cauldron, and a woman with a natural Yin body is best."
"I used the dragon bird as bait, and he will definitely come here to snatch people today."
“.”
Li Huaizhong knew that Longque, or Youjia, had the body of Tianyin.
No wonder Ning Yongnian had arranged for You Jia to lurk beside Wei Changtian before. It turned out that he was waiting for this moment today.
However, this also proves from the side that Ning Yongnian is actually unable to command Jing Yuan, otherwise there would be no need to go through so many twists and turns to create conflicts between Buddhism and the Wei family.
"Your Majesty, I still don't understand something."
Sighing secretly at the emperor's cruelty, Li Huaizhong asked softly, "But Jing Yuan had already been expelled from the Buddhist Lotus Temple. Even if he had a conflict with Wei Changtian and others tonight, or even killed Wei Changtian, what does it have to do with Buddhism?"
"What does this have to do with Buddhism?"
Ning Yongnian said calmly: "Old Li, Jingyuan is not dead. How many people in the world know this?"
“There are only a handful of them.”
"Although Jingyuan practices evil methods, every move he makes is from the Buddhist Lotus Temple?"
"It's the Kung Fu of the Fo Lian Temple."
"Then how can you say he is not a Buddhist?"
Ning Yongnian's face was hidden in the darkness, but his calm voice made Li Huaizhong shiver for a moment.
"As long as Jingyuan fights with Wei Changtian tonight, I will order the Xuanjing Division to wipe out the Buddhist sect one day. Do you think Wei Xianzhi will agree?"
".meeting."
After uttering the word "yes" with difficulty, Li Huaizhong finally understood everything.
Xu Shixing is dead. Although the Xu family has not made any moves yet, they will rebel sooner or later.
Wei Changtian killed Liu Yuanshan, and the conflict between Liu and Wei was inevitable.
So at present, the only thorn in Ning Yongnian's side is Buddhism.
In order to drag Buddhism into this chaos, the emperor before him actually made such a complicated plan.
Since it is impossible to infiltrate power into Buddhism, let's start with Jingyuan, the abandoned monk of Folian Temple.
First arrange You Jia to be next to Wei Changtian, and then use You Jia as bait to lure Jing Yuan into a conflict with Wei Changtian.
From the last "killing" incident, it is not difficult to see that the Wei family attaches great importance to Wei Changtian, their only son. So once this happened, Ning Yongnian only needed to add a little fuel to the fire, and Wei Xianzhi would definitely "take revenge" and go to the Folian Temple to demand an explanation.
Of course, by then the old monks in the Folian Temple will definitely reveal the fact that Jingyuan had already been expelled from Buddhism.
But will Wei Xianzhi definitely believe it?
Who knows if Ning Yongnian has any more hidden tricks up his sleeve?
As long as the Wei family goes to war with Buddhism, and a chaotic situation of fighting among the Liu, Wei, Xu and Buddhist families is formed, the Emperor of Da Ning will definitely be the one who laughs last.
However, all this requires a prerequisite.
“.”
Taking a deep breath, Li Huaizhong asked the last question.
"Your Majesty, please forgive my stupidity, but what if Wei Changtian handed over the Dragon Bird?"
“.”
"Then I will lose a capable warrior."
Ning Yongnian was silent for a moment, looking unconcerned.
Of course he knew how Youjia felt about him, but to him, the latter was just an excellent assassin.
What's more, "Old Li, I want to make a bet with you."
Ning Yongnian suddenly stood up slowly, with a faint smile on his lips.
"For a maid, he killed the prime minister. For a brothel girl, he killed five second-rank officials."
"Given Wei Changtian's personality, he will definitely not hand over the person."
"If you don't believe it, just watch."
“.”
The center of Sun and Moon Lake.
Wei Changtian noticed that the old monk opposite him was actually coming for You Jia, and he was inevitably stunned for a moment.
"Senior, are you here tonight to look for her?"
"yes."
Jing Yuan nodded slightly and repeated: "As long as Master Wei hands over this person, we will leave."
“.”
Suddenly a group of monks showed up and asked for a woman, especially at this critical moment. No matter how you think about it, it seems wrong.
But before Wei Changtian could think about it carefully, a trembling voice sounded behind him.
"Wei, Master Wei, don't."
"Please, don't hand me over to them."
The person who spoke was of course You Jia, and as soon as she said this, the eyes of the people around her were instantly focused on her.
It was obvious that Youjia knew what would happen to him if he fell into the hands of this group of wandering monks.
"Miss You, what's going on?"
Wei Changtian glanced at Jing Yuan, who had not yet made any move, frowned and asked, "What exactly is your entanglement with them?"
"I, I"
You Jia looked at Wei Changtian with tearful eyes. She did not explain but just kept repeating in an almost begging tone.
"No, I, I will be tortured to death by them."
“No, don’t.”
“.”
Seeing You Jia's appearance, Xu Qingwan immediately went over and gently held her in her arms, while biting her lip and looking at Wei Changtian silently.
Although Comrade Xiao Xu didn't say anything, Wei Changtian understood what he meant.
No matter what, Youjia once saved her life.
Without further asking for details, Wei Changtian sighed softly and turned to look at Jingyuan.
"Senior, what if I don't make friends with this person?"
"Not?"
Jingyuan suddenly raised the Buddhist stick in his hand with a grim smile and slammed it heavily on the lake surface beneath his feet.
“Crash!!!”
The originally calm water surface suddenly stirred up huge waves, and the next second, it gathered beside Jing Yuan and formed a huge water dragon that was ten feet high! "Second Grade!!"
Liang Zhen shouted loudly at the first moment, and Qin Zhengqiu's pupils shrank as well, ready to take action at any time.
However, Jing Yuan did not attack immediately. He just stood there and looked at Wei Changtian, as if waiting for his final answer.
In other words, everyone with their own different purposes was waiting for Wei Changtian's answer.
The moonlight shines down, life and death are just a thought away.
Being in the center of countless gazes, Wei Changtian lowered his head and remained silent for a while, then suddenly turned his head and looked at You Jia again, commanding in an emotionless tone: "Look up and look at me."
