Chapter 75 Good excuse Zhao Zhijing's pursuit

Yin Zhi stayed until evening before saying goodbye to Li Mochou and left.

He had not appeared in the Wanshou Temple all day long. Yin Zhiping guessed that the people in the Guanzhong must have discovered this situation. However, he had not shown up all day long, and with Li Zhichang in charge, he would not have caused any major changes. Moreover, Li Zhichang would not let everyone in the Guanzhong all day know about him. Therefore, after he went back, he only needed to explain to Li Zhichang.

As the master of the observation, he actually did not need to explain more to the ordinary disciples in the observation. At most, he asked in close contact and said that he would just go out for a moment. Those below dare not ask too much. At present, in the Wanshou Temple, Li Zhichang's identity is relatively equal to him. Therefore, he had to explain clearly to Li Zhichang, at least he had to find a reasonable excuse, otherwise he would be fooled by Li Zhichang.

He still used his light skills and went through the room and across the tiles to return to Wanshou Temple. When he returned to the vicinity, he glanced at Wanshou Temple before the adjacent high-rise buildings, and found that everything in the sight was as usual and no turmoil arose.

After sneaking back to his room, taking off his night-slide clothes, and changing into a Taoist robe, Yin Zhiping lit up the candlelight in the room, waiting for Li Zhichang to come.

It was just a short time before nightfall. When the night class was just being done at Wanshou Temple, a fire lit up in his room and was soon discovered by his disciples passing by. Not long after Yin Zhiping lit the candle, he heard footsteps outside, and he reached his door from far to near. Then he knocked on the door. Li Zhichang's voice rang out and said, "Senior Brother Yin, are you back?"

Yin Zhiping said: "It's me. Junior Brother Li asked to come in, the door is not closed."

Li Zhichang pushed the door and walked in. Seeing Yin Zhiping coming back safely, he felt relieved. Although he concealed from most of the disciples of Guanzhong that Yin Zhiping was not in Guanzhong for this day, if Yin Zhiping did not come back tomorrow, he would not be able to hide it. Moreover, if Yin Zhiping really disappeared for another day, he would have to repay the sect. He would have to let go of people to search for it, and the matter would be a big deal.

After bowing to Yin Zhiping, Li Zhichang asked: "Senior brother has been in the observation all day, I wonder where he has gone?"

When Yin Zhiping was still with Li Mochou, he had already thought of the excuse that he had not returned for a day and immediately replied: "I went to the palace for my brother."

"In the palace?" Li Zhichang couldn't help but wonder: "When did the senior brother go? Why didn't he explain it to us?"

Yin Zhiping said: "Because I did not enter the palace normally. But after the third update last night, I sneaked into the palace secretly. I was afraid that someone would find it, so I hid all day and didn't come out until the night."

Li Zhichang was even more confused when he heard this and asked, "Senior Brother, you have the gold medal you have given me. Why do you have to use this method to enter the palace? But I don't know what it is for?"

Yin Zhiping said: "Because I found Zhao Zhijing in the palace."

His excuse is to use Zhao Zhijing as an example. Anyway, I used it once in Hong Qigong last night, but I might as well use it again. Because this matter was true, it was a very reasonable excuse. It was just that he was not the one whom he discovered now, hiding in the palace, and he did not go to the palace to explore Zhao Zhijing's reality last night.

"Zhao Zhijing?" Li Zhichang was shocked when he heard this, "How could he be in the palace?"

Yin Zhiping pretended to be frowning and said, "Actually, I'm not sure if it's Zhao Zhijing. Yesterday I went to the palace to meet the official family. On the way to the Imperial Garden, I saw an eunuch who looked very similar to Zhao Zhijing. That's why I waited until the evening to sneak into the palace to investigate."

Li Zhichang hurriedly asked, "The senior brother has found out clearly, is it Zhao Zhijing?"

Yin Zhiping shook his head and said, "No. The palace is too big. I didn't find the eunuch who looked very much like Zhao Zhijing at night."

Li Zhichang pondered for a moment and said, "Senior Brother, I think it's unlikely that it's Zhao Zhijing? How could he hide in the palace to be an eunuch? I still think he went to chase King Jinlun in Dasheng Pass. Most of the time, he was killed by King Jinlun, but we haven't found his body."

Yin Zhiping nodded and said, "You are talking about it. I just looked very similar yesterday from afar. But at that time I was about to go to see the official family, but I was not good at seeing the details. There is a saying that "I have to see people alive and corpses when I die." After he chased the Golden Wheel Dharma, there was no trace of news, and I don't know about life and death. No matter what, this is finally a unsolved case in our sect. So when I encountered some clues, I wanted to find out what was going on."

Li Zhichang made an idea and said, "Senior brother, since you often go to the palace, you must know some eunuchs, or you can ask them to help find out the man to see if it is Zhao Zhijing."

Yin Zhiping shook his head and sighed: "This matter is not too ostentatious. If it is really Zhao Zhijing, it would be the family scandal of our Quanzhen Sect."

Li Zhichang said: "Senior brother, you naturally don't have to tell the truth. Just say that you were your one-hour playmate before you became a monk. You looked familiar that day and wanted to know if it was."

Yin Zhiping nodded and said, "Okay, I'll try it. But before confirming this, we should not pass it back and let the sect know."

Although he agreed, he naturally would not really do this. Because he had discovered Zhao Zhijing when he entered the palace for the second time last year, and knew that Zhao Zhijing was named Qian Jingzhi in the palace. Now this guy has already achieved the position of the Imperial City Envoy of the Song Dynasty in the Imperial City Division. Among the eunuchs, he can be said to be extremely powerful. Even in the entire Song Dynasty court, he is quite powerful.

Over the years of time traveling, he had a good understanding of Zhao Zhijing. He found that this guy was not very greedy, just like that, very good at power. When he was in Quanzhen Sect, he fought for power everywhere. When he had never reached the position of the first disciple, Zhao Zhijing had the greatest power among the three generations of disciples. So he later seized the position of the first disciple and overwhelmed Zhao Zhijing. Zhao Zhijing was very unhappy with him and regarded it as a hatred.

Now that this guy is the Imperial City Commander, it is a good place to be. Yin Zhiping speculated that the reason why Zhao Zhijing went to the palace to be an eunuch was because he might have castrated himself and practiced the "Sunflower Book", and the palace was his good place; the second was that the palace was a good place to fight for power and profit, and here he had many opportunities to gain the rights he had always pursued. Although the Quanzhen Sect is great, it was still a bit inadequate compared to the entire Song Dynasty. Now that he is the Imperial City Commander, Yin Zhiping felt that this guy no longer saw the position of the Master of the Quanzhen Sect.

"Senior brother, I know it too, don't worry!" Li Zhichang nodded and agreed.

After the two of them went on a few more gossips, Li Zhichang said goodbye and left, and he did not have any doubts about Yin Zhiping's explanation. (To be continued...)
