Chapter 22 Tianlong Temple
The next morning.
Kyoto East Castle Gate.
A luxurious carriage, escorted by more than a dozen guards with swords, drove out of Kyoto and then headed towards a mountain peak in the southwest.
On the carriage, Li Qian's eyes were closed tightly, and his face looked a little haggard.
Li Qian stayed up all night, waiting for the people from the Blood Pagoda to bring him good news.
But Li Qian didn't wait until dawn. He was impatient and chose to go to the place where the Blood Pagoda was in person to inquire about the situation.
The place where Blood Pagoda is located is on a peak called Juying Mountain.
Arriving at the foot of the mountain, Li Qian jumped out of the carriage, and after asking someone to park the carriage, he walked up the mountain with his guards.
Along the way, Li Qian also found many people carrying incense and candles walking down the mountain. Li Qian was not surprised by this, because he knew where he was going.
The existence of the Blood Pagoda is very mysterious. Even people like Li Tianqi are unaware of their existence. In the entire Dawu Dynasty, everyone who knows about the Blood Pagoda has basically fallen asleep.
Of course, Chu Mo and others are exceptions.
After searching for about half an hour, Li Qian finally reached the top of the mountain. He looked up and saw a temple not far ahead slowly emerging in front of him.
To outsiders, this temple is just a place of prayer, but Li Qian, who knows the details, understands that the temple in front of him is the headquarters of the Blood Pagoda!
When he came to the temple gate and looked at the many people praying inside, Li Gan said to the guards behind him without looking back.
"You guys wait here and don't cause trouble! Remember, without my order, no matter what happens, you can't even step inside. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed!"
After saying that, Li Qian took a deep breath and strode into the temple.
Even though he is Prince Dawu and holds the token to command the Blood Pagoda, it is his first time here after all, so he will naturally be a little nervous.
"The donor came here to pray for blessings?"
The moment Li Qian entered the temple, a young novice with his hands clasped appeared in front of him and asked.
Li Qian looked at the novice monk in front of him and said, "I'm here to find the abbot of Qinglong Temple. Please let me know, little master."
"The host is in retreat and may not have time to receive the donor. Please ask the donor..."
Before the little novice monk could finish speaking, Li Qian immediately took out a token from his arms and handed it to the little novice monk.
Seeing this token, the little novice monk's eyes narrowed and his face changed slightly. But soon, the little novice monk's face returned to its original color. He looked at Li Qian and said: "Donor, please come with me..."
After saying that, the little novice monk turned around and took Li Qian through the main hall, across the backyard, and to the mountain behind the temple.
"The master is inside. Your Highness can just enter."
Hearing the words of the young novice behind him, Li Qian turned around to ask something, but when he turned around, he found that the young novice had already disappeared.
Helpless, Li Qian had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk into the forest.
the other side.
This morning, a big event happened in Kyoto.
The deputy commander of Qin Tianjian led dozens of subordinates to the residence of the Minister of Works early in the morning. Before leaving, they not only took Shen Shenmiao away, they even took away some of the things that had happened during this time. tax ledger.
Because Li Qian had already left Kyoto when this incident happened, he did not know about it, but the incident quickly spread throughout Kyoto.
Li Tianqi's mansion.
When he learned that people from the Qintian Prison had taken Shen Shenmiao away for a thorough investigation, Li Tianqi was immediately excited.
Now he was worried that he would not have a chance to deal with Li Qian, but now, this opportunity has come to his door.
As Shen Shen Miao is Li Qian's right-hand man, if Shen Shen Miao is found to have a real problem, Li Qian will naturally be involved.
It would be better for Li Tianqi if he could get a copy of Li Qian in front of his father through this incident.
"Come here! Tell the people in Qin Tian Prison that they must thoroughly investigate the crimes Shen Shen Miao has committed! If there are people who bend the law for personal gain, Your Highness will force them to walk away with nothing to eat!"
Li Tianqi finally caught this opportunity, how could he let it go?
On the other side, the Prince's Mansion.
When Shen Shenmiao was taken away by the Qintian Prison, Chu Mo also learned about this from Yu Zixuan.
"She Shen Miao was taken away for investigation. Did Li Qian react?" Chu Mo asked indifferently.
"I'm afraid Li Qian still doesn't know about this matter. Early this morning, our people sent news that Li Qian went to Tianlong Temple outside the city in addition to Kyoto."
Yu Zixuan responded.
"Tenryuji Temple?"
When Chu Mo heard this, his eyes narrowed, but he quickly returned to normal.
"Forget it, this matter is just to teach him a lesson. Besides, I'm afraid there are people paying more attention to this matter than us now. Tell Wushuang that we don't need to pay attention to this matter anymore."
Chu Mo didn't seem to pay attention to these trivial matters. After all, there were more important things waiting for him next.
"There are only two days left before the wedding..."
Chu Mo sighed quietly.
…
After all, getting married is a major event in life. In the next two days, Chu Mo was extremely busy.
If people from the Etiquette Department hadn't helped prepare the wedding banquet, Chu Mo would have been exhausted to death.
In the evening, people from the Ministry of Rites came under Li Deyi's order and gave Chu Mo many congratulatory gifts.
Then the people from the Ministry of Rites did not stay long, and left the mansion after putting down the congratulatory gifts.
In the room, Chu Mo was wearing a red wedding dress, looking at himself in the mirror with a smile on his face.
"how?"
Chu Mo said with a smile.
Behind him, Yu Zixuan, Wushuang, and Feng Tianyi also looked at Chu Mo with smiles and nodded.
Chu Mo's appearance is not bad, with a touch of handsomeness in his delicate features, and a touch of gentleness in his handsomeness. The temperament exuded from his body is so complex, like a mixture of various temperaments, but among the gentleness and handsomeness, there is also something His own unique ethereal and handsome appearance.
At this moment, coupled with the festive clothes all over his body, Chu Mo looked even more elegant and refined.
On the other side at this moment, after the people from the Ministry of Rites left, they went to the Taishi Mansion.
Wen Haoxuan looked at the boxes placed in front of him with a calm expression.
These things were all betrothal gifts prepared by Li Deyi for the Taishi Mansion in the name of Chu Mo, including a hundred taels of gold, jewelry, and several silks and satins. If others didn't know the reason, they would still think that Li Deyi valued the relationship between Chu Mo and Wen Qingyuan. A marriage between two people is actually not the case.
"Grand Master, this is the betrothal gift that Your Majesty ordered us to send. Congratulations, Master Grand Master!"
People from the Ministry of Rites congratulated Wen Haoxuan one after another, and Wen Haoxuan couldn't help but squeeze out a smile on his face.
"My lords, you're welcome."
Wen Haoxuan bowed his hands towards the members of the Ministry of Rites.
After everyone chatted for a while, several people from the Rites Department said goodbye to Wen Haoxuan on the excuse that they had other things to do.
Wen Haoxuan saw off a few people and returned to the main hall. He looked at the boxes in front of him that were filled with gold, silver, jewelry, and silks, with a wry smile on his face.
