Traveling through ancient times to escape famine, the prince led me to rebel

Chapter 313: 1 Thought Becomes a Buddha, and Falls into Hell Forever

After all, I am still Chen Lingyi's spy, so I have to pretend and appease her for the time being.

But based on my understanding of this woman, she will not give up until she kills Chen Xingchen.

So, while I was carrying out the first assassination, I was already preparing for the second one. I asked someone to find out the location of the kitchen so that I could add some drugs to avoid bloodshed.

The date for the second assassination was set by Chen Lingyi, and as expected, it was on the Mid-Autumn Festival.

By then, Chen Ji will stay in Anruo Temple all day, which is a good time to go to Prince Yan's Mansion.

Unexpectedly, Chen Lingyi wanted to do two things at once and get rid of Chen Xingchen and Concubine Bai at the same time on the Mid-Autumn Festival.

An Luhai, who was sent to murder Concubine Bai, also involved Luo Xiaoran and used the old method of kidnapping his brother.

With Chen Ji in Anruo Temple, I know Luo Xiaoran will be fine. What I am more worried about is the Prince of Yan's Mansion.

Chen Lingyi wants to kill Chen Xingchen and Li Heng, but I can't really kill Chen Xingchen because Chen Ji will break up with me.

I originally wanted to find a child’s corpse to pretend it was Chen Xingchen’s body. As for Li Heng… I would just let him escape.

But Chen Lingyi was obviously determined to kill Chen Xingchen, and because the first assassination attempt failed, she no longer trusted me as much.

She sent a group of capable men to follow me to the Prince of Yan's Mansion, vowing to take the lives of Chen Xingchen and Li Heng.

My plan has failed.

Originally, I wanted to make the soldiers guarding the mansion and the servants all be fascinated by the food in the kitchen, and then I would lead my men to fight with the secret guards and leave behind a child's body.

Now with the involvement of Chen Lingyi's men, bloodshed was inevitable in Prince Yan's Mansion.

Li Heng even thought that I was the mastermind, so he approached me with a sword.

At that time, we were surrounded by Chen Lingyi's people. I couldn't explain my plan, and I had to kill Li Heng so as not to arouse suspicion.

So, I chose another way and cut off his only arm, so that Li Heng would become a lamb to be slaughtered, and Chen Lingyi's people would not be in a hurry to kill him.

Before coming to Prince Yan's Mansion, I thought of Luo Xiaoran, who had been busy raising chickens and growing sweet potatoes and having a lot of fun recently, and an extremely evil thought arose in my mind.

So, I asked someone to bring Niu Dan from the county government office to Prince Yan's Mansion, and left a note to guide Luo Xiaoran over.

Luo Xiaoran is a powerful weapon against the Lin and Jiang families, but she is too reclusive and only wants to farm her one and a half acres of land in the village and live a secluded life.

I have to think of a way to get her to voluntarily deal with the Lin and Jiang families.

Chen Xingchen cannot die, so a corpse is needed to replace him. Why can't this corpse be Niu Dan?

If Niu Dan died at the hands of Princess Qingyi, and Luo Xiaoran watched the son of her savior being killed easily by Chen Lingyi like crushing an ant, would she still continue to live in seclusion in the small village, refusing to be contaminated by the world?

Because of this evil thought, I brought Niu Dan to Prince Yan's Mansion, but when I saw the bloody fight between Chen Lingyi's men and the secret guards of Prince Yan's Mansion, I regretted it.

The people lying on the ground in Prince Yan's mansion today are all the result of the murders I committed today. Do I still have to sacrifice the life of an innocent child to promote my so-called plan?

Become a Buddha in one thought? Or fall into hell forever?

I thought I still had the right to choose, but as soon as I had this evil thought, God had already arranged everything that happened next.

When Chen Lingyi's men discovered that Niu Dan was the only child in the entire Prince Yan's Mansion, they determined that he was Chen Xingchen. Despite my repeated explanations, they just turned a deaf ear to them.

In the end, I was seriously injured, and Niu Dan and Li Heng both died.

After Chen Lingyi's men killed Niu Dan, they discovered that his clothes were indeed wrong as I said, and his height did not seem like that of a four or five-year-old child.

So they cut off Niudan's legs, put Chen Xingchen's clothes on him, cut off Niudan's toes, and put Chen Xingchen's shoes on him.

"Today, if Chen Xingchen doesn't die, I will be the one who dies when I go back, so the dead child must be Chen Xingchen."

I heard Chen Lingyi's men say this, and then they treated it as if they had really completed the mission and left in style.

I stood there for a long time, covering the wound on my abdomen and looking at the bodies of Li Heng and Niu Dan.

Li Heng is a straightforward person. Although I hardly know him, I can judge this from the few short sentences of conversation just now.

Niu Dan is a good boy. His poor background has made him introverted and sensitive, but he always faces the world with kindness. Luo Xiaoran has brought him up very well.

But now, because of a thought of mine, they are all dead.

At that moment, I felt extremely tired. An unprecedented sleepiness swept over my body like a strong wind, and I just wanted to sleep.

Bai Xue wanted to take me away to treat my injuries, but I refused and dragged my bleeding body back to Anruo Temple.

My subordinates reported the situation in Anruo Temple. I couldn't help laughing out loud. My movements pulled the wound, causing blood to ooze out, but I didn't care at all.

An Luhai was a poor guy. He originally wanted to recruit Luo Xiaoran to be a scapegoat, but ended up having her disrupt his plan to murder Concubine Bai. He really ended up losing more than he gained.

I know that the secret guard who took Chen Xingchen away must have seen me, and he will tell Chen Ji the truth about my breaking into Prince Yan's Mansion.

I sat in my own meditation room, changed into the monk's robe that Xu Xiaojing liked, and waited quietly.

By the way, I just said that Luo Xiaoran has a very sensitive sense of smell. I need to treat the wound first.

Bai Xue made some medicine for me, saying that I had consumed a lot of energy because I didn't stop the bleeding in time.

I didn't take the medicine. It's such a bitter thing, I really don't want to touch it.

My thoughts are wandering.

I heard Jiang Bin's name from Li Heng's mouth, and I found that even after twenty years, my hatred for him was still as strong as before.

Alas, there is no way, there is no escape from the fate.

I decided to have a good talk with Chen Ji and Luo Xiaoran tonight and talk about everything that has been accumulating in my heart. I am also a human being, I can't just take in without giving out, I have to talk it out!

But how to talk about it? How to say it? I still need to think about it.

First of all, in order to make Luo Xiaoran be on guard against Jiang Bin, I have to tell her that Jiang Bin is a time traveler like her.

So how did I know that Jiang Bin was a time traveler? I touched my bald head and continued to deduce.

Unless someone else told me this, or I myself am a time traveler and then discovered Jiang Bin, the time traveler.

I chose to assume that I was a time traveler.

First, someone else told me that Jiang Bin was a time traveler, so who is this person? It's hard to make up.

Second, when I wake up in the middle of the night, I often go back to the days when I was with Xu Xiaojing and Li Yifan. I know a lot of their language, and I believe I can disguise myself as a time traveler.
