087 The Encounter at Dashoji Temple(1/2)

In another courtyard of the Daxiang Temple, Princess Duanmin returned directly to her own courtyard after coming out of the courtyard where the Wei family rested.

Seeing that her expression was calm, but her eyes seemed to be brewing a storm, Aunt Jiang couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. She knew that the existence of the Wei family was like a thorn in the throat to the eldest princess.

If I don't get rid of her, my heart will never be happy.

"Princess, some things cannot be rushed." Aunt Jiang brought tea to the princess and advised her in a low voice.

Princess Duan Min smiled coldly and gritted her teeth and said: "Mom, I hate Wei Yanhuai in my heart, but I hate that woman even more. They died early when they arrived. I can only vent my hatred on

For their children, I will make them have no peace under the earth."

Aunt Jiang couldn't help but shook her head. Princess Duan Min is already thirty-five years old this year, and she is still alone now. She even has a famous name. All of this is thanks to Wei Yanhuai. How much she loved her back then, now she is alone.

How hateful it is, not to mention that the Wei family may have taken things they shouldn't have taken.

"Princess, you are now the most distinguished princess in the Great Xia Dynasty. It is not easy to deal with those two Wei family members. But you must take care of your health. Anger can harm your health." Aunt Jiang is Princess Duan Min.

The nanny almost regarded her as her own daughter. She knew that her princess was not dissolute by nature, but that she went into self-exile because her love was too bitter.

"I'm not angry. Why should I be angry? Those two people have already become two bones. Even if they once loved each other, so what. In just ten years, how can I be as free and carefree as I am? In the whole capital, except for the emperor's brother,

, no one is more noble than me, I live a good life, really good." Princess Duan Min had a smile on her face, and those words were not so much meant for Grandma Jiang to listen to, as they were trying to persuade her.

Own.

Princess Duan Min quickly regained her condescending attitude. At this moment, a maid walked in from outside and said a few words in Princess Duan Min's ear. Princess Duan Min's face changed slightly and she stood up immediately.

I walked outside. The most conspicuous person in the courtyard was the middle-aged man standing in the center. He was wearing a dark brocade robe and a gray cloak. He had an extraordinary bearing. A large number of people knelt in the courtyard.

Princess Duan Min hurriedly greeted her and said: "Brother Emperor, why are you here suddenly? You are really. Your current status is unusual. Even if you are in private, you need to bring more guards."

The person who came was the current Holy Lord Shangguan Rui, who first entered the ceremony last year and was also the elder brother of Princess Duan Min.

Shangguan Rui shook his head slightly, "Doesn't this mean that Master Yunxiang has returned from his travels, so he came to pay a visit."

Princess Duan Min said: "You are just a monk, so why should the emperor be so condescending to you?"

Shangguan Rui knew that Duan Min had an arrogant temperament, so he just waved his hand and said, "Master Yun Xiang is an eminent monk, and the imperial sister cannot be like this." Then he waved his hand towards the kneeling people and said, "You all get up.

.”

"Brother Imperial, it's cold outside, come in quickly." Princess Duanmin invited Shangguan Rui in, made tea herself, and followed Eunuch Wang who was beside Shangguan Rui to taste the tea, but was given a look by Princess Duanmin.

Stared back.

Princess Duan Min said: "Duan Min, let me try it for you." She poured another glass and took a sip.

Shangguan Rui took the tea, took a sip and said, "Okay, am I still going to disbelieve you?"

Princess Duan Min's face turned into a smile. The late emperor had so many sons and daughters, and it can be said that his brother was able to make the final tripod. This journey can be said to have gone through a lot of hardships, because their mother and concubine died young, and their mother's family was in trouble.

It was just the Imperial Academy Jijiu without real power. At first, the brother and sister almost lived with their heads down. It was precisely because they wanted to hide their strength and bide their time that she missed the person she loved most. After climbing the bones of countless people, they finally climbed up.

After occupying this position, the brother and sister relied on each other, and their relationship was naturally the closest. Even the eldest princess born by the queen, Shangguan Rui's biological daughter, was not as noble as her aunt Duan Min.

"What happy things have happened to my brother?" Princess Duan Min asked when she saw the smile in Shangguan Rui's eyes.

Shangguan Rui's eyes flashed, but he picked up the tea cup and sipped it, obviously not wanting to answer Princess Duan Min's question.

Princess Duan Min was stunned for a moment and then let go. Although the relationship between the brother and sister was very good, but after all, the person in front of her was the current emperor, the king. When it came to agency planning, she was far inferior to him.

And it was extremely difficult to guess what he was thinking. Since he couldn't figure it out, he simply let it go. Anyway, as long as Shangguan Rui was the emperor, her honor and favor would not decline.

"Brother Emperor, it's already noon, why don't we have a meal together? The vegetarian restaurant in Daxiang Temple is quite good." Princess Duanmin said again.

Shangguan Rui nodded, and Princess Duan Min winked at Nanny Jiang. After a while, several maids came with food boxes. Eunuch Wang came forward with a silver needle to test the poison. This time, Princess Duan Min did not try again.

Losing your temper, after all, this set of procedures is for the safety of the Holy One.

After Shangguan Rui finished his meal, Princess Duanmin gave up the main room of the courtyard for Shangguan Rui to rest.

Shangguan Rui was leaning on the couch, and Eunuch Wang quickly walked over from outside and whispered in his ear: "Your Majesty, we have found out that the girl is a member of the Wei family who lives in Weiyuan Hou Mansion.

Her parents are both deceased. The old lady of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion took her with her when she was in the countryside. The old lady of the Wei family brought her with her when she returned to Beijing some time ago. Now she is living in the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion.

"

Shangguan Rui narrowed his eyes slightly and gently turned the jade ring on his left thumb with his right hand.

Eunuch Wang was the emperor's personal attendant. After gauging his thoughts, he said cautiously: "Your Majesty, why don't I send a message to the old lady of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion?"

It would be a great honor for a little orphan girl to be able to enter the palace and serve the emperor.

Shangguan Rui didn't respond. Eunuch Wang bowed his body and sweat broke out on his forehead. He was afraid that if he failed to please him, he would be self-defeating.

After a long while, Shangguan Rui gently responded with the word "Yeah". Eunuch Wang's heart finally fell back into his stomach, and there was a slight smile on his face, although he didn't understand what the Emperor was after about the Wei family.

What's wrong with the girl, but he knew very well that the emperor looked at that back for more than a cup of tea, and he didn't even pursue the crime of disrespecting the emperor.

"Since the old lady of the Wei family likes her so much, let her recognize her granddaughter." After a while, Shangguan Rui said again.

The emperor wanted to praise the girl from the Wei family. After all, the status of the remote branch of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion was quite different from that of the girl from the Wei family. Eunuch Wang was a little surprised but agreed with a calm expression.

*****************

After lunch, Qingluan gave the bed to Wei Xin'er to take a nap, and he and Wei Che walked out of the yard.

After seeing that there was no one around, he whispered in Wei Che's ear and told him that the emperor came to the Daxiang Temple incognito. Wei Che's face was indeed surprised, and after a long while he slowly said: "Since the emperor came to Xiangguo quietly,

Temple, he must not want others to know his whereabouts. We should pretend that we don’t know. Although sister Xin’er bumped into the emperor, it’s not a big deal if the emperor doesn’t blame her. You can tell her not to worry about it.”

"That's what I told her too. Cousin Xin'er is smart, otherwise she wouldn't have guessed the emperor's identity just based on those little details. Brother, there are so many noble people in the Daxiang Temple now. My heart

I'm still a little uneasy, so why don't we go back early." Master Yunxiang was an eminent monk in the Great Xia Dynasty. His lectures on Buddhism at the forum were naturally attractive, but with so many people, I'm afraid more of them were in the spirit of the only thing left this year.

Rather than fighting for such an opportunity with so many people, it's better to give up on that opportunity to avoid offending people who shouldn't be offended.

Wei Che relaxed and said comfortingly: "You don't have to be like this. Master Yun Xiang sees all living beings as equals. He will only give orders to those who suit his eyes, no matter how rich or powerful they are, even you."

If you get that opportunity, no one else can say anything, right?" For Wei Che, Qingluan's future is the most important thing.

"Brother found out that the person who spread the rumors was a steward from the Bai Mansion. That day, I remember that in addition to the girls from the Liu family, didn't there also be girls from the Bai Mansion? I think she was the one who was spreading rumors outside and was known as the bad sister.

"Wei Che's eyes were slightly cold, and the lines on his profile were tense, "This woman is so young and has such a vicious heart. Is the Bai Mansion going to have a grudge against our Wei family?"

Wei Qingluan was startled. She really didn't expect that Bai Shuangshuang did this. Based on her understanding of Bai Shuangshuang, this woman was the best at pretending to be forbearing. When the Bai family was in trouble, she missed the old love and saved the man who was demoted to a lowly person.

Bai Shuangshuang, Bai Shuangshuang has always kept a low profile since she entered the house. She never dared to take a step forward in words and deeds. Even though she said that she would still treat her as a sister, she was still very careful until the Wei family was in trouble.

She just revealed the scandal with that bitch Lin Zixuan.

Combining the knowledge of the two generations, Wei Qingluan feels that Bai Shuangshuang is a typical person who flatters you when you are strong and tramples on you when you are weak. Now my brother has just

After receiving a reward from the emperor and receiving a commission from the Yulin Guards, according to Bai Shuangshuang's temperament, he shouldn't do such a thing at this time, right?

But the results of her brother's investigation should be correct. Does Bai Shuangshuang really want to break up with her?

Qingluan had some doubts in his heart, but he quickly put them behind his mind. He originally thought that Bai Shuangshuang also died in the last life. If she didn't mess with her in this life, just stay away. Unexpectedly, Bai Shuangshuang was so

She is the kind of person who can make waves even in the absence of wind. In this way, you don't have to respond to her in vain when you meet her in the future.

"Sister, don't worry. Since the Bai family is so cruel, I won't be lenient. This brother will avenge you." Wei Che said bitterly. The Bai family is just a fourth-grade Jing Zhaoyi.

, this official position is extremely sensitive. How many people are staring at that position. It is not easy to make the Bai family suffer.

The other side is fair. "Brother, I know you feel sorry for me, but I hope you will consider yourself and Weiyuan Hou Mansion first before doing anything. Luan'er doesn't want you to take risks because of Luan'er.

Luan'er will be well only when she knows you are well." Qingluan did not directly refuse Wei Che's request for revenge. Just as she thought when she opened her eyes again, she would never be weak again in this life, let alone let others go in vain.

Bullying aside, Wei Che's desire to bring trouble to the Bai family was exactly what she wanted, but she wanted Wei Che to be careful when doing things and not let others catch the Wei family and put herself in danger.

.

Wei Che looked at his sister's calm face and felt all sorts of emotions welling up in his heart. Finally he nodded and said, "Don't worry, brother will take care of himself."

The brother and sister walked along the bluestone path behind the Daxiang Temple. Thick snow was still hanging on the green pines on both sides. The winter sun shone on them, as if they were covered with a layer of glittering light, slowly melting.

It turned into water and dripped in the mud on both sides, and there was a fresh smell in the air, which made Qingluan's mood much better.

A middle-aged monk wearing gray robes walked towards him. He was short and fat, just like the Maitreya Buddha enshrined in the temple. Next to him was Fu Hongye, dressed in black, still wearing a silver mask on his face.

A trace of surprise flashed across Qingluan's eyes. You can meet familiar people everywhere, but I don't know why the owner of Hongye Villa came to Yunxiang Temple. Could it be that Yunxiang Temple is also the property of Hongye Villa? This idea

He just passed by and was abandoned by Qingluan. This Yunxiang Temple is a century-old temple. When the reputation of Master Yunxiang spread throughout the Great Xia Dynasty, there was no trace of Hongye Villa. How could this be possible?

.

Of course Wei Che also noticed the two people walking towards them. Regardless of what the monk was like, the man in black beside him could be described as unfathomable. The pressure emanating from his body could be seen even from a few meters away.

, you can also feel the compelling momentum.

Wei Che took a step forward slightly, blocking Qingluan's body, with a gloomy expression on his face. The man's eyes were staring at his sister, which made Wei Che feel very unhappy. The fierce aura he had returned from the battlefield was fully revealed.

The two people were competing in the air, and you could almost feel the sparks bursting out of the air.

Qingluan's heart tightened. She didn't want her brother to be at odds with Fu Hongye. She was about to say something to ease the atmosphere, but she heard a sound of "Amitabha" as steady as a bell, and the fat monk walked forward with a smile.

He took two steps and recited a Buddhist verse.

I don’t know if it was because the fat monk’s smile was too bright, but the tense atmosphere suddenly relaxed a lot.

Qingluan tugged at Wei Che's clothes to signal him not to behave like this.13acv.

"Amitabha, the two benefactors are well." The fat monk's eyebrows were curved, but he looked past Wei Che and looked at Wei Qingluan. A gleam of light flashed in his kind eyes, but the smile on his face became stronger.
