The Pearl on the Emperor’s Crown - Chapter 12
[Chapter 12]
The Queen Mother devotes herself to worshiping the Buddha. Every important festival of the Buddhist family, Zhu Yi will always go to the royal monastery to pray and pray on behalf of the Queen Mother. She has long been familiar with several Buddhist scriptures and can discuss with the wise Zen Master Dingxu. . Therefore, the queen took Zhu Yi to the temple alone, which was not abrupt.
The ups and downs of the soft sedan chair were like Zhu Yi’s mood at the moment. From time to time, she stuck her head out to see that Mianfeng and Geng Luke were still following.
Dajue Temple is located on the outskirts of Sangyang City, and the incense is prosperous on weekdays, but because of the arrival of the Queen, the temple was closed the first day, so as not to be blamed for being disturbed by the nobles and masters.
As soon as the queen entered the temple, she went alone with the abbot, while Zhu Yi was led to a guest room to transcribe Jixiangshu. In the past, she had to transcribe when she entered the Imperial Temple, so she didn’t think much about it.
Zhu Yi wrote for a while, and suddenly said, “Mianfeng, I don’t think the incense burning here is quite right.”
“Is there?” Mian Feng and Geng Lu both sniffed.
“Yes, go and pinch off the incense.” Zhu Yi, who has always been sensitive to smells, added, “Let’s not copy it for now, let’s go out for a walk.” Zhu Yi thought clearly, in case the queen asked, she would be punished for her laziness. Punishment is always better than the lack of human resources.
Unexpectedly, when they walked to the door, they were stopped by two guards. The guards lowered their heads and spoke in a respectful tone, but what they said was unpleasant: “Princess, the goddess said that you can only leave the room after you have written auspicious shu.”
Zhu Yi didn’t move or speak, and the two guards couldn’t help but look up at her.
Zhu Yi only smiled at this moment, like the flowers shining on the water and the moon shining out of the clouds, she was stunned when she saw the two men, she said embarrassedly: “But, I drank a lot of water before.”
People have three worries, even if it is a princess like a fairy, the two guards will understand, they look at each other, and one of them said: “Princess, please come with me.”
Going out and turning a corner, there were also two guards standing at the door of the first wing, and there was a humming male voice inside, very low, Zhu Yi listened carefully, as if it was made by something gag.
Zhu Yi’s face instantly turned white, and there were no idle people waiting in the temple. The queen’s bodyguard would not guard a man for no reason, but was also placed next to her. She did not expect the Queen to be so intentional. She originally thought that the Queen would at most punish her on her knees to chant Buddha for a whole day.
Zhu Yi knew that the queen had made such an arrangement, and she must have thought of a way out. She thought that the queen must know that she is approaching Xie Ying again. It seems that most of the queen wants Xie Ying to marry Zhu Dai and kiss her.
The temple is full of Yiyi bamboo shadows, clear springs gargling stones, Zhu Yi took a handful of water and poured it on his face to make himself more awake. She found that the effect of the incense was really strong, and she felt it was fast enough, but she still felt that her limbs were gradually weakening.
Zhu Yi whispered a few words to Mianfeng and the two before turning back. She has to take the initiative, otherwise when she loses her strength, she can only let the man next door do whatever she wants.
When Zhu Yi went out this time, the door was deliberately opened, and there was almost no strange smell after returning to the room.
“Mianfeng, what’s wrong with you?” “Geng Lu, Geng Lu!” Zhu Yi’s panicked cry suddenly sounded.
The two guards immediately turned to look at her. Seeing Zhu Yi’s two palace maids, one leaning beside the table and the other lying on the ground, Zhu Yi also sat on the couch with her forehead smothered, and the two guards couldn’t help but feel sorry for them. .
Zhu Yi half-squinted and saw a man kicked in from the door, then the door closed with a snap and locked from the outside.
The man’s nose was blue and his face was swollen, but Zhu Yi recognized it immediately. It was the Dengzi he met in Jade Island last night. It was only because she was deeply impressed by those red eyes, and because of her identity, it was the first time she saw a man show such disgusting and fearful eyes.
Wan Hai was scolding her mother, but she was stunned when she saw Zhu Yi: “Beauty, am I dreaming? I saw you again? Haha, then the crimes I suffered yesterday and today are all worth it!” Wan Hai completely forgot to investigate Where is this place, why is he here, full of peony flowers, and it is romantic to be a ghost.
Zhu Yi smiled lightly: “You are not dreaming, I did meet the son again.”
Wan Hai swallowed a mouthful of saliva and rushed to the edge of the couch, clasping Zhu Yi’s shoulders with one hand and holding Zhu Yi’s hands with the other.
Zhu Yi’s body shrank, but he let him hold his hand without struggling. Wan Hai was overjoyed and began to stroke the back of Zhu Yi’s smooth hand.
Zhu Yi tried his best to restrain the desire to vomit, and asked shyly: “Since the son appeared in Jade Island, I must have some money at home?”
Wan Hai hurriedly said: “Yes, yes! Beauty, you can follow your master at ease, Quan Sangyang is the one with the most money in your family.”
Zhu Yi showed a happy smile: “Then… if I follow you, can you marry me as your wife?”
Wan Hai frowned and thought for a while: “Yes! I have long wanted to leave the tigress at home.” As long as the beauty in front of him is willing to be with him, he will agree to anything.
Zhu Yi’s smile was even deeper: “Actually, Young Master, you also look like a talent… They actually beat you like this, I feel distressed when I see it.”
Zhu Yi’s fingertips trembled, she raised her hand and touched Wan Hai’s forehead lightly, enduring the disgusting and sticky touch, and touched his eyelids again. She took the initiative to get closer: “close your eyes.”
Zhu Yi’s breath made Wan Hai’s soul almost go out of his body. He closed his eyes with enjoyment, and waited for the beautiful woman to offer a kiss, but suddenly he shook heavily and froze in place.
Zhu Yi looked at Mianfeng behind Wan Hai, Mianfeng put down the copper bowl in his hand, came to Zhu Yi and said with a heartache: “I’ve wronged the princess.” Zhu Yi shook his head.
However, just as the master and servant were happy for the success of the plan, Wan Hai jumped up angrily and pinched Mianfeng’s neck. Wan Hai was not knocked out as they had hoped, because Mian Feng was using too little strength at the moment.
Mianfeng was immediately pinched until the whites of his eyes rolled out, and his face was deformed in pain. Zhu Yi no longer maintained his previous calmness and pulled Wan Hai’s arm hard: “Let her go! Let her go!”
After being dragged by Zhu Yi twice, Wan Hai really let go of Mianfeng, turned around and hugged Zhu Yi tightly: “So the beauty lied to me? Huh?”
Before the plump body could press Zhu Yi onto the couch, Wan Hai had already let out a sharp howl, and he didn’t know what means the person had used. His neck could no longer move, and his arms were folded into an unbelievable angle. , with a terrifying sound, it was forcibly broken, and Wan Hai rolled his eyes and was thrown aside.
Zhu Yi was frightened by Wan Hai’s stern expression, but the man who appeared in front of her still felt puzzled and asked to drag Wan Hai out, not knowing what to do.
Zhu Yi didn’t expect Xie Ying to come, she was stunned, but she soon felt an indescribable joy in her heart, and even forgot her fear of Wan Hai. She raised the corner of her mouth and said, “Prince.”
Seeing Xie Ying’s ugly face, Zhu Yi thought for a while, and in turn comforted him: “I’m fine.” In fact, she should have been dissatisfied with Xie Ying because of the Queen’s relationship, but for some reason, she was not in her heart. She saw this at this time. He is just pure steadfastness and joy.
Seeing that Xie Ying still didn’t speak, Zhu Yi rarely took the initiative to approach him: “Xie Ying, my body is very soft and I have no strength.”
If Zhu Yi said this to Xie Ying before, it would inevitably lead to misunderstanding and teasing, and he would have to take advantage of him. But at this moment, Xie Ying is obviously not in the mood to laugh.
“Wen Yan.” When Xie Ying finished speaking, a woman in blue came in and gave Xie Ying a porcelain bottle. He took the medicine for Zhu Yi’s master and servant to take, and then said, “I’ll take you back to the palace.”
Zhu Yi wanted to leave, but…she looked at Xie Ying: “The queen brought me out, can I go?” Zhu Yi understood that the queen was Xie Ying’s aunt after all, and he would not easily put him and the queen Regardless of the family’s affection and the interests of the Xie family. So couldn’t help but confirm.
Xie Ying looked at Zhu Yi and said, “Of course you can.”
The queen in the Zen room on the other side also put down the tea cup and said to herself, “Bengong should go and see how the princess’ auspicious sparse is written.”
She just stood up, and a figure of Yanfen came lightly like a butterfly: “Mother! I’ve been dozing off for a while, why did you leave the palace without taking your daughter with you.”
The queen was a little surprised to see Zhu Dai: “Did you get permission from your father when you left the palace?” The princes had waist badges and could freely enter and leave the palace, but not the concubines and princesses, they had to report to the emperor in advance.
“Go ahead and report later. Anyway, it can be said that my mother brought me out.” Zhu Dai said with a coquettish smile, “By the way, it was my cousin who escorted me here.”
The queen was startled, suppressed the anger in her heart, and said, “Did you go to find A Ying, or did he come to you on his own initiative?”
“I was looking for the cousin, but the cousin agreed to send me to find my mother without saying a word.” Zhu Dai’s voice was so sweet as if it was wrapped in honey.
The queen asked in a deep voice, “What about your cousin? Knowing that my aunt is here, you didn’t come to see me first, but where did you go first?”
Zhu Dai was stunned for a while. In fact, when she got into the carriage, she didn’t see Xie Ying at all, only Shen Xingliu next to Xie Ying.
The queen sneered: “I know where your cousin is. Let’s go, he won’t come to Ben Gong, but Ben Gong will find him.”
When she saw the empty guest room and the guards lying at the door, Zhu Dai was surprised: “What happened to these guards? Mother, didn’t you say we are looking for cousin? Why is my cousin here?”
The queen squeezed her fingers tightly, and laughed angrily: “Every one of them is very good.”
Zhu Dai didn’t understand and asked, “What is the mother saying?”
The queen did not answer, but said two words: “Back to the palace.”
