After eating the loquats in the bowl, Master Xuanqing handed the bowl to Zhou Lu'er.

Zhou Lu'er's voice sounded in her mind, "I'm old and I can't eat so much ice at this big night. It's okay if you eat one or two more bowls."

Zhou Lu'er smiled and said, "Then I'll eat all the rest."

Master Xuanqing responded, "Eat slowly and let your fifteenth brother's wife think about it carefully."

"Miss Second, think about it slowly." The heartless Zhou Lu'er focused on dealing with half a can of ice drinks without raising her head.

Pei Yunqiu looked at Master Xuanqing and turned around. At this time, she saw a strange scene. The moonlight formed a halo behind Master Xuanqing.

The halo gradually spread and spread like ripples, and the dim corners in the tower became strangely bright.

The Big Wild Goose Pagoda is not a quiet room. The sound of the entire Chang'an City can be transmitted into the tower through the window lattices and into Pei Yunqi's auricles. However, her heart was completely relieved at this time, and her heart was extremely peaceful. The whole Big Wild Goose Pagoda seemed to have become quieter than any quiet room.

She saw many details that she would not notice on weekdays. On the mottled brick wall, some cracks were plated with silver light by the moonlight, and scriptures piled in a corner, and the edges of the yellowed paper pages were trembling slightly, and there were fine golden lights flashing in the halo.

A spider hung on the spider silk, disturbed by the sudden light, and crawled into the shadow in panic.

The halo continued to spread, illuminating the mottled paintings on the tower pillars. The faded flying patterns appeared and disappeared in the moonlight, and their clothes fluttered, as if they were about to break out of the wall.

The darkest Buddha niche was also awakened by this strange halo. The wood carved Bodhisattva lowered his eyebrows and smiled slightly, and the lotus in his hand came to life under the moonlight.

The remaining incense ash in the incense burner was blown a little by the summer wind, tiny dust raised up and dancing in the halo. Even the tiniest dust seemed unusually clear at this time.

A gecko crawled quietly by the Buddha's niche. The gecko was already hidden in the shadow, but half of its tail was exposed under the moonlight. It twisted its body quickly and wanted to hide completely, but it did not know that this struggle would be even more eye-catching.

Pei Yunshi shook his head unconsciously and sighed.

She suddenly understood Master Xuanqing's state of mind at this moment.

Some things are like this gecko hiding its tail. The more deliberately it is, the easier it is to be noticed.

"So it is inevitable that the soul removal is taken out?" She looked at Master Xuanqing and said calmly, "Since the emperor took advantage of Zou's influence among the ministers to support Lin Fu to take office, trying to change the chronic diseases of the Tang Dynasty, weaken the power of the clans, and allow more poor children to stand on the stage of the prosperous era to display their talents. In fact, his enemies have begun to plant the seeds of doubt in Lin Fu's heart."

Master Xuanqing did not respond.

He just looked at Chang'an with compassion.

Pei Yunqi knew that the night Wang Yehu died, it seemed that the emperor was the biggest winner in the city, but she knew very well that the emperor did not have the joy of victory that night.

The important minister he valued, the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, whom he worked hard to cultivate, was used by his enemies, constantly tracing the truth about the soul-moving truth, and finally swallowed up by the suspicion in his heart and turned into his enemy.

Wang Yehu in this whirlpool had already seen through everything and chose to bury this secret. Perhaps when he and Wang Youshan began to go against each other many years ago, he already felt that Chen Qiqi's arrangement was the best choice. He looked at this prosperous era and looked at the streets and alleys full of peace and tranquility like Chen Tu. At that time, he was ready to leave the world one day like Shen Qiqi for this prosperous era.

The emperor's enemies may not be able to understand what he was thinking, so in the rebellion led by Lin Fu and Zheng Zhu that was carrying him, many people's real idea was to think that he would be like a trapped beast, tearing down all the shackles and throwing many things from the past into the world.

He is the adopted son of the rat Taoist Wang Youshan, and the only true disciple who truly inherited Wang Youshan's mantle. His strength is undoubtedly also a witness and witness of many conspiracies including soul transfer.

However, Wang Yehu's choice is still contrary to what those people want.

He chose to make a big fuss, choose to act a good show, and then leave the world quietly.

Some of his actions in Qujiang made people feel that Canglang Sword Sect was secretly controlled by him. He and Gu Liubai are enemies but not friends. However, he left the most important magical power to suppress evil and transform to Gu Liubai.

It turned out that in his mind, his purpose was completely the same as Shen Qiqi, Guo Beixi, Liang Fengning and others. He was no longer Chen Qiqi's enemy.

In that chaos, he quietly helped the emperor and Shen Qiqi to smooth out a lot of previous evidence.

He took countless secrets and evidence from the world.

However, what happened before will not really disappear.

Even if a person like Wang Yehu tried his best to cover it up, even if she, Pei Yunqi and Mingyue Pavilion, tried her best to cover it up next, the emperor's enemies could still find some flaws.

"So, if I do more with the Mingyue Pavilion, the more I do, the easier it is for the prince and the people behind him to take advantage of the problem?" Pei Yunqi sighed.

Master Xuanqing looked at her calmly and responded, "There are countless people in the world, and countless people have countless different views on this world."

Pei Yun nodded.

She could not determine the true meaning of Master Xuanqing's words at this time, but in her understanding, many people from the same clan as her would not think like her.

For many clans, their own interests originally exceeded those of the Tang Dynasty.

She suddenly laughed and said, "Since countless people in the world have countless opinions, I just need to do things according to my ideas. Whether Gu Shiwu's mother or Wang Yehu, they must be smarter than me, but they know they can't do it. I, as a junior, should learn from them to make up for it in Chang'an."

Master Xuanqing did not respond.

He was a little tranced.

As time goes by, many years ago, there was a woman like this who showed such a smile in this tower.

"Gu Shiwu told me that the reason why good people don't live long and are prone to losses is that when others are despicable and shameless, they do things too well and not despicable enough." Pei Yunqi saw the emotion on Master Xuanqing's silent face, and she said seriously: "He and He Haixin and others have said that when doing things, they should not think that they are good people. When doing things, they must be more despicable and shameless and sinister than those despicable and shameless people."

Zhou Lu'er was still chewing half of the cold loquat in her mouth. When he listened to Pei Yunqi's words, he couldn't help but hold half of the loquat in his mouth and said, "What the fifteenth brother said is definitely right."

Master Xuanqing laughed.

...

After the morning light of Chang'an spread in the east sky, the coolness of night dew on the bluestone slabs on Zhuque Street quickly simmered with the heat. After many people woke up early, before a bowl of noodles soup was eaten, sweat beads of soybeans were already pouring out all over their bodies. The locust trees and osmanthus trees were still sifting into fine golden light, but the sound of cicadas was already making a big fuss.

There are no cicadas around Mingyue Pavilion. After becoming a hot and powerful figure in Chang'an, Yao Zhuxue in Yankangfang was not proud of her, but was more careful in her work.

He knew that these people in Mingyue Pavilion needed a good rest, so he arranged for many people to pick up spider webs with bamboo poles and catch all the cicadas on the big trees in Yankangfang. He even arranged for people to be on duty under the trees at night. Whenever a new cicada broke through the ground, he was immediately caught and put into the bamboo tube. By noon, it was already a delicious dish of wine.

In the quiet courtyard, there was only the rustling sound of the wind passing through the leaves, which made Pei Yunli's steps become more and more quiet.

He Haixin and others had just had breakfast. Before they could enter the gate of the Privy Council, they saw Pei Yunlu passing through the door opening.

Last night, there was still gloom between her eyebrows, but today when her sleeves brushed past the drum stone on the side of the door opening, her expression was like a quenched blade. The morning light cut into the hall, illuminating the dust circling in the sandalwood, and her shadow cast on the blue brick floor, naturally with a sharp breath.

Li Xizhi brought a huge porcelain basin with ice cubes piled up inside and placed it in the center of the large table in the Privy Council.

Pei Yun tapped the edge of the table with his fingertips, and the spots of light reflected by the ice crystals jumped on her brow bones, making her eyes sharper.

"Last night I went to see Master Xuanqing. He woke me up. The prince's soul-moving array may not necessarily mean to really move the soul. It just wants the whole world to think that there is something like soul-moving, and then they will get up the old account."

"There is no truth to this kind of thing, it just depends on what the people will believe."

"No matter what we do or don't do, they probably have already planned it. At the right time, things like soul transfer will be widely publicized by them."

"But time and luck are on our side. Our people discovered his intentions early, and the entire Daozong is in our hands. Now even the people in the confidentiality of Li's family who are in charge of the mouthpieces of Chang'an streets and alleys are eating for free in our Mingyue Pavilion."

"So we don't need to cover up anything, we just need to be more despicable than them and stir the water more muddy."

"He Haixin, you ask those who are safe in Wujiguan to come to discuss matters, let them think of some ways, and let the people in Chang'an quickly understand that the so-called soul transfer is just some small tricks of the side and left-minded. It makes people feel that they are just confused and will recover soon. As for what it takes to have another person's memory, etc., it is also a spell of the side and left-minded."

"Find some examples of people who are particularly good at acting and get some soul-shifting examples. Leaving two of these people does not move makes people feel like they have moved their souls. It is best to be the ones that our Mingyue Pavilion does not deal with. The rest of them will cooperate with the Buddha Sect to perform a play, so that the people and the Buddha Sect can help them eliminate troubles. It is easy to teach people that even if it really seems to be moving the soul, the Buddha Sect can recover in advance. As for the two that are kept, they will use them at the critical moment."

"As for those officials who want to help the prince arrange the soul-moving array, they have some surprises and they have no way to arrange the soul-moving array. Then we will have practitioners to investigate and deal with those who have contact with them."

He Haixin and all the colleagues of the Privy Council of Mingyue Pavilion nodded.

They are all rare talents, and they instantly understood Pei Yunqi's strategic intentions.
