Chapter 124

Lan Jue hesitated for a moment: "From the age and patterns of the stone coffin, it should be good to say that it is a king's belonging. However, historical records show that the king's body was infected with a disease and died on the way to the border to the capital, and his corpse was burned on the spot. There is always controversy in the place where he returned to the burial place. One said that he was buried on the spot, but the detailed location of the tomb was lost. The other said that he was buried next to the imperial tomb after returning to the capital. However, there has never been any saying that he was buried in the fiefdom. I have not read many historical books, and it may be that he has not seen it."

Wang Yan said: "Peizhimo Ziqian. If you don't know much, I'm illiterate. Then, Prince Wang Tangtang, who was holding heavy troops at the time, how could he burn the body?"

Lan Jue said: "Therefore, many unofficial historians said that He Wang held heavy troops in his hands, and was afraid that Emperor Shang was afraid that he would poison him. He was afraid that he would kill him. He burned the corpse after his death, and kept his traces closed. The historian of the Chu Dynasty recorded that burning the corpse after death was the order of He Wang before his death. He Wang Renhou was afraid that he would infect others with the disease, so he ordered the corpse to be burned. He Wang believed in Taoism and once wrote a poem that said that Sheng was a piece of meat in the secular world, and he died as a little dust in the mud, and he didn't mind that burning the corpse after death was considered to be traceable. Moreover, I have never seen any records of He Wang building a tomb for himself in his fiefdom in historical materials."

Wang Yan nodded thoughtfully. Zhang Ping said, "Please ask me for advice, where is the place where Wang died of illness?"

Lan Jue said: "Bingzhou is far from here."

Zhang Ping's eyes lit up, Wang Yan smiled and turned to look at him: "Didn't that guy named Ding Wei call himself a Bingzhou person? Haha, it's true that it's a big connection!"

Zhang Ping looked back at Wang Yan and nodded solemnly.

When Lan Jue saw the two of them describing him, he couldn't help but feel a little bit energetic. He was extremely tired and just said it stereotyped. At this time, he became interested in the case, picked up the tea at hand, took another sip, and turned his thoughts.

"In unofficial history, there is another saying that Wang Nai was assassinated by the assassin of Dongzhen Kingdom."

The king of He led his troops to defeat the Dongzhen Kingdom. In the unofficial history or legendary interpretation, the king of Hewang will occupy the celestial phenomena and measure Feng Shui. He sent dead soldiers to destroy the national weapons of the Dongzhen Kingdom and destroy their Feng Shui lifeline. After the fall of the Chu Dynasty, the Dongzhen Kingdom once seemed strong and even invaded the Central Plains, but eventually died of internal friction. The prosperous era was like a flash in the pan.

Wang Yan's eyes shone: "Interesting, I understand the case more and more! Unfortunately, it was a day between me and Wang's descendants, even if they were alive after the death of the Chu Dynasty, they were all Chu lice, and it is difficult to find some things. There are only things that can only be speculated."

Lan Jue said: "According to historical records, I have never married my king in my lifetime and have no queen."

Wang Yan raised his eyebrows in surprise, Zhang Ping also blinked, and Wang Yan laughed: "It's not that this person... but he can't let him marry a wife."

Lan Jue looked serious: "With Wang Ying... he was not as good as Long Yang, and he never married in his life because of his belief. It is said that the ministers of the Chu Dynasty wanted to help him become the emperor, but he refused to accept it and almost became a monk and became a Taoist priest."

The Chu royal family was all interested in Taoism, taking pills, nourishing alchemists, talking about mystery, and even being obsessed with the art of atria. Many court officials were worried. When they were princes with Wang Kuang, they did not take pills, nourish alchemists, and talked with people without talking to others. Their words and deeds were clear, and the important officials in the court were secretly happy, thinking that this was the hope God gave to the Chu Dynasty. They planned to join forces to promote Prince Kuang as the crown prince.

But one day, Emperor Ling held a banquet in the Imperial Garden, and several important officials attended, all the princes were present, and there was also the national teacher who was very favored by Emperor Ling. During the banquet, the princes talked about the mystery with the national teacher, and they were very happy to hear the news, but the ninth prince Kuang remained silent. The more the important officials looked at it, the more they felt that Prince Kuang was heavy and steady. When Emperor Ling asked, "Why didn't Jiuer talk?" Prince Kuang stood up and replied, "My minister is clumsy and not good at speaking."

Emperor Ling said again: "Clean is simple. Jiuer is simple in nature and is not good at speaking. Now the scenery in the imperial garden is very beautiful, so she chose something to paint it."

The palace servants put on pens, ink, paper and inkstones. Prince Kuang picked up his pen and wrote, and the garden was full of flowers and trees. He painted an old pine tree in the flowers and wrote, "I am always a guest in the beautiful scenery. I wish to accompany the old crane to the cloud cliff." Several important officials were all black in their eyes. Only then did they realize that Prince Kuang was not out of the mud without being stained, but was deeply rooted in the Tao. Others just chased the wind and talked about the mystery, but he was a real and true Qing cultivator.

Not long after, Prince Kuang invited himself to become a monk. Emperor Ling did not allow him. Later, Prince Kuang went to a valley to learn Taoism for a while. He returned to the court after Emperor Ling died. He was named King of He and lived in a fiefdom. He still watched scriptures and played chess every day and never cared about government affairs.

Lan Jue said while drinking another cup of tea. The tea gathered his spirit. Suddenly he remembered something and looked at Zhang Ping: "Yes, you have asked me what other countries are there before. I couldn't remember something at that time. I was indeed a tangle with Wang Chunyu Kuang and Dongzhen Kingdom."

Zhang Ping looked at Lan Jue with his eyes becoming more focused, and Wang Yan also sat upright.

Lan Jue took another sip of tea: "I went to the mountains to practice Taoism with Wang Yin. I worshipped Yang Huazi, a famous Taoist at that time, as my teacher, and his Taoist name was Xuantong."

Yang Huazi knew about Hewang's identity, but he still asked him to pick up water and grow vegetables without teaching him scriptures. More than a dozen disciples under Yang Huazi thought Hewang was a young servant and ignored him. Only the eldest disciple Xuan treated him very well and asked his senior brothers for advice on Taoist scriptures. Only Xuan and his patience answered him.

When He Wang left the master's sect, Xuan Ji and others realized that he was actually the prince. He Wang Chang asked Xuan Ji to go to the palace and treated him with the courtesy of his senior brother.

"Later, Xuanji went to Cangyunguan, Jinzhou Prefecture, the border, and became the abbot. He never thought that when Dongzhen Kingdom attacked Jinzhou, Xuanji actually brought the Taoist treasure to the enemy country."

Zhang Ping suddenly spoke: "What the lord is talking about "Xuyuan Secret Scroll"?"

Lan Jue was surprised, and Zhang Ping lowered his eyelids: "The Xiaguan once heard from his master mention this book. The "Xuyuan Secret Scroll" contains some secret theories of Laojun and Nanhua Zhenren, and also contains secret classics and classics of several schools of Hunyuan Zhenwu, which are very precious. There is only one in the world, hidden in a Taoist temple in Jinzhou Prefecture, and later fell into the hands of the foreign country and has been lost now."

Lan Jue nodded: "Yes. It is unknown who compiled the "Xuyuan Secret Scroll". The mysterious saying was obtained by Dongfang Shuo from Heaven. In the Tang Dynasty, Empress Wu seized the throne and respected Buddhism even more. This book was mostly destroyed by war and was lost for a long time. Until the Chu Dynasty, when Cangyun Temple, Jinzhou Prefecture built a hall and found it in a stone mail underground, it was worshipped like a treasure. However, it was given to Dongzhen Kingdom by Xuanji."

Later historians have speculated that the fact that He Wang went out to the mountains to participate in politics and led troops to the border should be because of this. His senior brother joined the foreign country. At that time, the Chu Dynasty and Dongzhen Kingdom were as powerful as fire and the crime of colluding with the enemy was too great. He Wang did not dare to let the court have such suspicion, and could only lead troops to attack Dongzhen Kingdom to prove his innocence.

Xuan Ji was captured by the king's subordinates and returned to the country. The Taoist in Tongguan and the people in the city hated him as a traitor and beat him to death.

After Lan Jue sighed and said, Wang Yan suddenly stood up: "Peizhi, you are such a profound lucky star. The truth of this case has been revealed and can be solved! Most of it is your credit!"

Zhang Ping also bowed: "Thank you, sir." He took out something from his sleeve, "Please take a look at this item."

On the white bupa, what was lying was the concentric lock taken out of the female corpse's stomach.

Lan Jue frowned and looked at it: "This pendant has been corroded, and the age cannot be seen in the headquarters, but the shape is in the style of a Hu object."

Zhang Ping immediately bowed again: "Thank you sir."

Wang Yan hurriedly bowed to Lan Jue: "Peizhi, I'm sorry I'll lose my companion first." He looked at Zhang Ping again, "The headquarters is going to the prison room, do you want to go with me?"

Zhang Ping hesitated for a moment and did not move: "The evidence is not enough yet, and the officials want to wait for news from the capital."

Wang Yan sneered: "Well, you will obediently follow your Feng Gong Yin's instruction, let the head office come." He turned around and left.

Zhang Ping hesitated for a moment and chased after him: "My Lord, can you let the lower officials examine Ding Wei first?"

Wang Yan glanced at him again and curled the corner of his mouth: "I am really loving your boy's character. You took Ding Wei, and you will be the one who wants to review the fake grain dealer. The department will watch."
