Sang Yan refused to give in and dodged away, saying angrily: "This is a pure place of Buddhism, no messing around."
He Ying disagreed: "My Buddha is compassionate and would definitely be happy to see lovers get married eventually."
Sang Yan: "..."
She couldn't defeat him, so she changed the subject with a smile: "Is the palace still peaceful these days?"
He Ying nodded: "It's nothing."
Sang Yan took a look outside and saw Yu Huaide, whom he hadn't seen for a long time. He was confused: "Why didn't you see Pei Muyang?"
Pei Muyang is young and good-looking, has a sweet mouth, and has a strong sense of presence.
The emperor came in just now, but he was nowhere to be seen.
She kept it in mind.
"Is he sick?"
"No."
He Ying did not want to say that after the eunuch chief Yu Huaide returned to the palace, he reported that Pei Muyang was Pei Zhen's illegitimate son.
Although Pei Muyang has always behaved his duty since he came to the imperial court and has no tendency to avenge his father, but who knows what he is thinking in his heart?
It can no longer be used.
Like the queen, he was born into original sin.
"It doesn't feel right."
Sang Yan looked at him and asked, "What happened? Did he make a mistake? You won't kill someone again, right?"
He Ying shook his head and said innocently: "How could it be? Am I such a murderous person in your heart?"
"sorry."
Sang Yan knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he immediately apologized, and then said, "So don't hide it. What happened to Pei Muyang?"
Seeing that she kept asking questions, He Ying stopped hiding and told the truth: "Pei Muyang is Pei Zhen's son."
Sang Yan was dumbfounded: "Ah? What? How did you know?"
He Ying said: "Yu Huaide is back. He is the chief eunuch. After careful investigation, he found out that Pei Muyang is Pei Zhen's illegitimate son."
Sang Yan questioned: "Pei Zhen is a powerful minister and a tiger cannot eat its own children. How could he let his son enter the palace as a eunuch?"
He Ying explained: "Based on his age, he entered the palace after Pei Zhen died. This also makes his motives suspicious."
"What did he say himself?"
"He said that his mother was a singer, but he was not recognized by Pei Zhen, and he had always been dependent on his mother. When he was seven years old, Pei Zhen was killed, and his mother died soon after, and he was forced to make a living and entered the palace."
"Listening to what you say, he is also a pitiful person."
"Although he is pitiful, I still can't keep him by my side."
Considering that he had served him for so long, it was a mercy for him not to take his life.
After hearing this, Sang Yan guessed: "Is the emperor going to expel him from the palace?"
He Ying nodded: "I will give him some rewards to ensure that he is safe and worry-free for the rest of his life. I am letting him think about what he wants."
Sang Yan was quite satisfied with the handling and said nothing more.
He Ying didn't want to talk to anyone else, so he changed the topic and asked her to take him to visit Ha Long Zen Temple.
The two of them chatted and wandered around in Longchan Temple.
"Amitabha, may your Majesty be safe."
"Have seen the emperor——"
The monks passing by all saluted.
Sang Yan said with a smile: "The emperor can change his clothes next time he comes. This golden color makes it easy to identify him."
He Ying did not wear royal robes, but his private clothes were too gorgeous and high-profile.
"I think it's a matter of temperament."
He said it deliberately to be narcissistic and wanted to make her happy.
Sang Yan smiled and praised in cooperation: "That's necessary. The emperor is full of dragon energy, so they will naturally be intimidated."
The two of them walked to the mountain behind Longchan Temple without knowing it.
The trees in this mountain are lush and green.
There are also some fruit trees.
Sang Yan saw a wild fruit tree with green and red fruits hanging all over the branches. Although he couldn't name it, it was moist, shiny and fragrant. It looked delicious.
"Your Majesty, I want to climb up and pick fruits."
The wild nature hidden deep in her bones was revealed.
He Ying thought of how naughty and cute she was when she jumped out of the carriage before, so he stopped restraining her and said with a smile: "Okay."
Then, he squatted down in front of her and commanded: "Then you step on my shoulders and climb up. Slowly. Be careful of getting scratched."
Sang Yan was quite surprised that he would do this: "Are you sure? Should I step on you?"
He Ying nodded: "Don't you want to go up and pick fruits?"
"Don't you think it's inappropriate?"
"As long as you like it. There's no one else here."
He thought of the secret guards and added: "If you're sorry, I'll tell the secret guards to stay away."
Sang Yan shook his head: "That's not the reason."
She didn't care what others thought about this kind of thing.
Look at him squatting obediently.
She just stepped on him and climbed the tree.
The tree is not too tall.
It's not too difficult either.
She quickly climbed up and sat on a thick branch.
When He Ying saw her sitting down, he jumped lightly, flew to her side and sat down.
Sang Yan was stunned: "Why don't you carry me and fly up?"
He Ying said seriously: "Didn't you say you wanted to climb up and pick fruits?"
Sang Yan: "..."
It seems to be her problem.
Stupid.
Stupid.
I never thought there was such a way!
"Then can you carry me down now and then up again?"
She wanted to experience the feeling of flying up in her arms.
He Ying agreed, wrapped his long arms around her waist, and brought her gently to the ground. Then, luck took her up.
Sang Yan thought it was fun and played three times before sitting on a tree branch to pick fruits.
The fruit looks delicious, but tastes bitter.
She was disgusted and threw it to the ground and said, "No wonder there are so many and no one picks them."
He Ying didn't say anything, he picked one fruit after another, took one bite of each fruit and threw them away.
Sang Yan looked puzzled: "What are you doing? Even if it's not delicious, don't waste it. Pick it and sell it to some chickens and ducks. It's considered a kind of food."
He Ying explained: "I try to see if each one is delicious. There are so many, there is always something delicious."
He actually wanted to find something delicious to feed her.
I searched for it and found it.
"Hey, this is good. Try it."
He staggered the place where he bit and handed it to her mouth.
Sang Yan didn't mind it either, biting the place where he had eaten and kissing him indirectly.
He Ying's eyes grew hot: "You——"
Sang Yan chewed the pulp and nodded with satisfaction: "It's really good. Very sweet. Very crisp. Very fragrant. Endless aftertaste."
He Ying: "..."
It always felt like she was talking about something else.
Every move he made was teasing him.
A little hot.
But there is no sun today.
The wind rustled in the forest.
It's very refreshing.
But his whole body was incredibly hot: "That... that--"
He looked away, his mind was confused, and he wanted to lose control.
At this moment, the sound of a woman running and panting came from the forest.
Accompanied by loud curses:
"Bitch/human!"
"Stop running! You can't run away!"
"You bastard, how dare you run away after doing such a shameless thing!"
"What a misfortune for my family! What a misfortune for my family!"
…
The sound moves from far to near.
Sang Yan saw a young woman in torn clothes falling under a fruit tree. There were blood marks on her body from being whipped. The blood marks spread from her body and neck to her face, so that the woman's hair was disheveled and her face was bloody, and her true appearance could not be seen.
Behind her, there was a crowd of people chasing after her. Some of them were dressed in extraordinary clothes, and some were wearing coarse shorts, but they all carried knives and sticks, with the same ferocious look.
What's going on?
Force good girls into prostitution?
Or human trafficking/trafficking?
"I don't!"
"I'm not!"
"I didn't do anything!"
"I am innocent!"
The woman was dying, her body was scarred and exhausted, and she couldn't get up at all. She could only cry helplessly, like a dying animal.
But the men obviously would not let her go and gradually surrounded her.
Seeing that the woman was about to be dragged away——
"stop!"
Sang Yan gave a sharp shout and signaled He Ying to hug her and fly down.
