Chapter 445 The Sad and Angry Yingwei (Subscribe)
The next day.

Clear skies.

Today is the day of Master Huineng's cremation, Zhu'er rushed here early with a few monks from the Hanlin Academy, and she wanted to watch the White Horse Temple on behalf of the queen to see which forces they were planning to flirt with!
Ying Wei also came uninvited, staring at the monks passing by with a worried expression.

As time went by, more and more dignitaries and dignitaries came under the Qiyun Pagoda, the left and right prime ministers came together, four from the six ministers came, six ministers from the Nine Temples came, and there were also ministers, doctors, princes and magnates from various ministries. Celebrities, gentry and country sages soon filled the entire square!
And the White Horse Temple has already been prepared. The hundred-year-old agarwood has been chopped into thigh thickness, placed horizontally on the left and right, piled up a full foot high, and at the top is Master Huineng!
Although the square was full of people, it was very quiet at the moment, only the sound of a group of old monks chanting scriptures filled the square.

Ying Wei frowned, looking left and right: Strange, Li Mu didn't come?

Didn't he have a deep friendship with Hui Neng?
Didn't he suspect that Hui Neng's death had something to do with Hui De?
Are they all fake?

Ying Wei curled his lips, he still expected Li Mu to make a big fuss at the White Horse Temple!
the other side.

Jiang Yuange was also chatting with Yao Yan.

"I got the news this morning that two days ago, Shi Jianxian Li Mu came to mourn Master Huineng, and even had a dispute with Abbot Huide, which was very unpleasant." Jiang Yuange said.

"I've heard about it too." Yao Yan nodded and said, "It's just that I didn't see him today. Could it be that he's not coming?"

He was a little puzzled, according to the information he had, this Huineng had helped Li Mu several times, it was impossible for Li Mu not to come!

"If he comes, we can chat with him about Dragon Palace." Jiang Yuange laughed.

Now whether to pay tribute to the Dragon Palace or not, there is still no conclusion in the court, there is almost a small quarrel for three days, and a big quarrel for five days, the queen got angry several times, but the officials couldn't stop at all!
Time passed, and it was getting closer and closer to noon. Almost all the eminent monks of the White Horse Temple appeared on the stage, except for one person missing!
"Strange, it's almost noon, why hasn't Abbot Hui De appeared yet?" Jiang Yuange frowned slightly.

"Maybe there is something wrong." Yao Yan didn't care much. He looked around at everyone in the field, and his eyes fell on Ying Wei who was not far away. The cause of Master's death is that he was expelled by the White Horse Temple several times, it seems that Abbot Huide doesn't intend to stand with the Queen anymore."

"Oh, really?" Jiang Yuange said casually: "The queen has the support of the Qin family and the Ying family, so why would she care about a mere White Horse Temple?"

Yao Yan glanced at him, and asked with a half-smile: "But I don't know where the White Horse Temple is now?"

"How would I know?" Jiang Yuange shrugged with a nonchalant expression.

Half an hour before noon, there was a sudden commotion outside the square.

"Poetry Sword Immortal, Poetry Sword Immortal is here!"

"Shi Jianxian and Master Huineng are inseparable, why did they come here now?"

"I heard that Master Huineng's death was tricky, and I don't know if Shi Jianxian will stand up for him."

Amidst the discussion, the crowd in the square spontaneously gave way to a narrow path leading directly to the place where Huineng was cremated.

There is a good show to watch... Ying Wei looked at Li Mu expectantly.

"Li Mu!" Seeing Li Mu, Zhu'er was so happy that she almost jumped up, but when she thought of Master Huineng's body next to her, she was busy and quiet again.

Jiang Yuange and Yao Yan also watched Li Mu who was walking slowly.

Today's Li Mu is dressed in white, with black hair tied on his head and fixed with a sword hairpin. On his face with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, there is a hint of sadness.

"Benefactor Li." An old monk with white beard and white eyebrows stepped forward and said via voice transmission: "Senior Brother Huineng ascended to the sky today, I hope Li Benefactor will look after Brother Huineng, don't bother Brother Huide again gone."

Don't worry, I won't trouble the dead... Li Mu nodded slightly, he came to the crowd, looked around, walked to Zhu'er and stood still.

"Li Mu, when did you return to Beijing?" Zhu'er asked in a low voice.

"It's been a few days." Li Mu replied casually, but his eyes fell on Huineng, who was lying on the pile of agarwood wood five or six meters away, and said in his heart: I avenged you, Huineng!
Of course, this revenge was only reported for one-third at most.

Of the remaining two-thirds, half fell on Chen Yuan, because even without Huide, Huineng would still die from the five declines of heaven and man. Therefore, Chen Yuan, the chief culprit, cannot escape no matter what!
And the remaining half, Li Mu still needs to investigate!

Just as he thought before, even if Huide didn't make a move, Huineng would still die, so why did Huide take the risk?

There must be a hidden secret that has to be acted on, and this hidden secret is most likely related to a certain force in the imperial capital!

Li Mu looked around the field calmly.

Yan Wang Ji Han and Shu Wang Ji Hui did not come, both of them just sent the stewards of the palace to watch the ceremony.

The left and right prime ministers were chatting on the right, four of the six ministers came, and Zhang Ziyao, the minister of officials, and Kong Yi, the minister of rites, were absent.

Ji Can was not there either. I heard that after the ancestor worship was over, he stayed in the Taimiao every day, as if he was afraid that someone would come and tease the nine bronze beasts that Fengding was re-smelting.

The rest of the palace masters of Shenfu didn't come, is it to avoid suspicion?
While Li Mu was meditating, noon finally arrived.

However, Huide still didn't come!
"What's going on, why hasn't Junior Brother Hui De shown up yet?"

"I sent someone to the Zen meditation room, but he's not here."

"Could it be something delayed?"

"Something's wrong. I've searched all over the temple, but I can't find Brother Hui De."

"Where did he go?"

A group of old monks gathered together, looking dignified.

Zhi Yi at the side looked at the group of teachers and uncles, hesitant to speak several times.

Finally, the old monk who just communicated with Li Mu discovered Zhiyi's abnormality, and hurriedly asked, "Zhiyi, do you know the whereabouts of your master?"

"My master, he..." Zhiyi looked at Yingwei, then at Li Mu, gritted his teeth, and said through a voice transmission: "I tell Master, at around noon yesterday, Yingwei Ying's benefactor came to the temple and asked his disciples to make an appointment with Master at the beginning of Youshi. , I met at Tianyou Mountain, and the disciple didn't know whether the master had gone, but after that, the disciple didn't see the master again."

"What?" The old monk was shocked, he suddenly raised his head to look at Ying Wei who was looking around not far away, his expression gradually became dignified.

Some time ago, this benefactor Ying came to the temple in disguise many times to investigate the cause of brother Huineng's death. Brother Huide was not polite, and every time he saw him, he would be expelled. Could it be that this benefactor Ying held a grudge because of this matter, Therefore, he tricked Junior Brother Huide out, and then...

"Brother Huichen, what happened?"

"But do you know the whereabouts of Junior Brother Hui De?"

Seeing this, other old monks gathered around one after another.

Huichen nodded, and told them what Zhiyi said just now.

Thus, all the old monks' eyes fell on Ying Wei.

Ying Wei was still looking around at first, but soon felt hot...spicy gazes.

What are these old monks looking at me for?
Ying Wei frowned displeased.

"Amitabha." Huichen put his palms together and walked towards Yingwei, followed by the rest of the old monks.

When Ying Wei saw it, a sense of uneasiness surged in his heart, and he quickly said to Li Mu: "Li Mu, I'm here to look for you!"

No, it's for you.

Li Mu looked at him playfully.

Ying Wei became more and more uneasy.

"Benefactor Ying." At this time, Hui Chen and other old monks had come to Ying Wei, and everyone in the square also turned their attention to this side.

It was really looking for me... Ying Wei's heart sank, and he hummed, "Why are you looking for me?"

"May I ask where the abbot of our temple is?" Hui Chen asked.

Ying Wei frowned: "How do I know where the abbot of your White Horse Temple is?"

"Hmph! Don't pretend to be crazy, didn't you ask Brother Huide out yesterday!" An old monk with a slightly irritable temper behind Huichen said angrily.

"What did you say? When will I..." Ying Wei was furious, and was about to refute when he was interrupted by Hui Chen.

"Amitabha, Zhiyi, tell me." Hui Chen called Zhiyi.

"Yes, master." Zhi Yi clasped his hands together, walked forward with a stern face, and said, "At noon yesterday, Master Ying sneaked into the temple, found his disciple, and asked him to send a message to the master, saying that we will meet each other at Tianyou Mountain at the beginning of Youshi. Discuss...discuss about the Poetry and Sword Immortal."

"Nonsense, I simply..." Ying Wei was startled and angry, and was about to deny it, but was interrupted by Li Mu.

"Is it related to me?" Li Mu sneered: "I understand, hmph, it really is that you know people, face but not heart, Ying Wei, I didn't expect you to be this kind of person!"

Why am I such a person?
What did I do to me? !

Ying Wei was anxious and angry, and shouted: "Li Mu, do you want to add insult to injury? You are shameless, you..."

He was interrupted by Zhu'er before he finished speaking: "Commander Ying, I knew you were unhappy with Li Mu, but I didn't expect that you would join forces with outsiders...I will definitely report this to my mother!"

"I didn't do anything, what do you guys want to do!!" Ying Wei blushed aggrievedly, and felt so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood!
"Interesting." Not far away, left prime minister Yao Yan crossed his arms and looked at this scene with a half-smile.

On the other hand, Jiang Yuange, the right-hand man next to him, had a face as heavy as water, and his eyes occasionally fluctuated as he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't speak.

"It's not what the poor monk and others want to do, but what the benefactor Ying wants to do." Huichen asked, "What is your intention to lead the abbot of our temple out, and where are the others? Please tell the benefactor Ying one by one!"

"I didn't, you're talking nonsense!!" Ying Wei explained anxiously with a pale face: "Yesterday at noon, by the way, I was at Qingyou Mountain at noon yesterday, and I had never been to the White Horse Temple at all. Don't try to frame me!!"

"You mean, Master Zhiyi is lying?" an old monk said angrily.

"The disciple is not lying!!" Zhi Yi said urgently.

Ying Wei was trembling with anger, pointing at Zhi Dao: "I didn't see you at all yesterday, don't talk nonsense!!"

"Benefactor Ying, this little monk will never mistake anyone. At noon yesterday, it was clearly... well, this..." Zhiyi hesitated in the middle of speaking.

"Zhiyi, what's the matter?" Huichen asked puzzled.

"It must be because I'm afraid that the lie will be exposed, monk, if you dare to frame me, don't blame me for being ruthless!" Ying Wei pulled out the golden knife with a 'clang' sound, and the sound of the knife pierced through gold and cracked rocks, resounding through the sky!
"Yingwei! Two days ago, you drew your saber in front of Brother Huineng's spirit. Today, he passed away in blissful bliss. You dare to draw your saber, but you can put my White Horse Temple in your eyes!!" The group of old monks were also angry, brightly The golden Buddha light instantly enveloped the entire square, as if the scorching sun was about to burn Yingwei to ashes!

In an instant, Yingwei felt as if he had fallen into a fiery cave. The hot Buddha's light made him smoke all over his body, and his hair was almost on fire!
"Too much deceit!!" Ying Wei was so angry that his teeth chattered and his whole body trembled, but he didn't dare to provoke again, for fear that he would be directly 'purified' by these old monks!

"Wait a minute, masters and uncles." Zhi Yi was a little anxious. He remembered the man in black he saw yesterday, and faintly sensed the problem. , but that man was very suspicious and wrapped his whole body up, disciple, disciple did not see his face."

"what?"

"Chiyi, you..."

All the old monks were shocked when they heard this.

"Hahaha!" Ying Wei was ecstatic, and he laughed angrily: "Did you hear that? You bastards! This is clearly someone pretending to be me to lure Hui De into the bait. It is Hui De who is stupid, so what have I to do!! "

"You!!" The old monks were angry and helpless.

"Ying Wei, that man in black didn't show up, but pretended to be you. There must be something wrong with you!" Li Mu calmly analyzed.

"Li Mu, shut up!!" Ying Wei was furious, pointing at Li Mu and yelling: "You bastard, why are you everywhere! Ah! I know, it's you, you must be pretending to be my general Huide That bald donkey led out! It must be you!!"

Huichen and the others' eyes immediately fell on Li Mu.

Ying Wei's eyes lit up, and he said repeatedly: "You bald donkeys, do you remember what happened the day before yesterday! Li Mu suspected that Huineng was killed by Huide's bald donkey, and he must have used my name to kill Huide's bald donkey. Donkey leads out, and then kill him to avenge Hui Neng, it must be like this!"

I can't tell that you're quite smart... Li Mu looked at Ying Wei in surprise: "After three days' farewell, treat each other with admiration!"

"Commander Ying, don't talk nonsense, Li Mu will never do such a thing!" Zhu'er said anxiously.

"Zhu'er, when I was wronged just now, you were not like this, you, you..." Ying Wei was angry and uncomfortable at the same time.

……

"This is really getting more and more interesting, isn't it, Jiang Xiang?" Yao Yan looked at Jiang Yuange with a smile on the side, but there was no smile on the latter's face, and he even looked a little gloomy.

"Jiang Xiang, what's wrong with you?" Yao Yan asked strangely.

"It's nothing." Jiang Yuange forced a smile and said, "It's just... I feel worthless for Huineng, hey."

At this time, everyone in the square also vaguely understood what happened, and the discussion suddenly turned upside down!
"Huide was invited out by someone, and he hasn't returned yet, so he must have...passed away, right?"

"Could it be that Shi Jianxian is pretending to be Ying Wei?"

"Impossible, Shi Jianxian wants to kill people, one sword is enough, why use such low-handed means?"

"Someone must be trying to frame Shi Jianxian!"

The square became more and more noisy, and countless voices gathered together, like thousands of mosquitoes buzzing.

"Amitabha." Huichen had no choice but to put his hands together, and the huge Buddha light turned into a golden wave, sweeping around like mountains and seas, scraping the clothes of countless people, speechless!

After the scene became quiet, Hui Chen looked at Li Mu and asked, "Benefactor Li, did you do this?"

Li Mu smiled: "Didn't the man in black admit that he is Ying Wei? Why are you still asking me? You should take Ying Wei down and torture him to get the truth!"

"Li Mu, you bastard! I can't stop talking to you!!" Ying Wei was furious.
