The slightly self-deprecating and teasing tone made Xiang Feiyu's eyes flash with pain, and he seemed to have more wrinkles.
His daughter's pain is also his pain!
"Girl, Sun Changsheng is famous. Maybe he can cure your face. Why don't you ask the emperor for you?"
Xiang Shengnan chuckled and shook his head while stepping on the snow.
"No, let's not ask for that kind of man. I can't afford to repay the favor."
"Although my face is ugly, it is not meant to please others."
"If someone really loves me, then he won't care about my skin. He will love me and protect me like a father, without any complaints."
"On the contrary, it means that there is no need for a daughter to be sincere for those superficial men."
Hearing this, Xiang Feiyu felt happy and uncomfortable.
That's right.
But can that ghost-like face be tolerated by a woman in her twenties?
But seeing how determined she was, as a father, I had no choice but to support her silently.
…
At the top of Zhongnan Mountain is Chaotian Temple.
The end of Lingjiang River is Zhongnan Mountain.
Qin Yun's team spent several hours traveling by water, then took the official road with two sticks of incense and arrived.
now.
Waves of Buddhist sounds and rosy clouds are heard, making people feel like they are on a pilgrimage.
Qin Yun curiously stepped out of the carriage, and was shocked by the scene before him!
Not only him, but also many imperial guards and imperial guards could not help but raise their heads and look towards the top of the mountain like believers.
Zhongnan Mountain is covered with white snow.
The top seems to be illuminated by Buddha's light all year round, making it extremely peaceful.
The solemn and sacred temple hall has a historical flavor, mottled and ancient!
Even though they are thousands of meters apart in altitude, you can still read a trace of Buddhist charm.
The sound of Zen suddenly sounded far and near, as if the Buddha was calling.
Qin Yun looked around again and saw that there were believers and common people in twos and threes.
They knelt three times and bowed nine times, pausing every ten steps, and marched devoutly towards Zhongnan Mountain. They were using their actions to express their respect and belief in Chaotian Temple!
At that moment, Qin Yun became completely calm.
Those eyes that knew the court and the world well, revealed a murderous intent.
The people all worship the Buddha, so what do they want the emperor to do?!
The more sacred and transcendent the Chaotian Temple is, the more terrifying it is! He knows deeply that under this Zhongnan Mountain, beneath the eight-foot-long golden body, there is a dark heart.
Such a contrast is terrifying!
Sudden.
In the distance, a dozen figures appeared.
They came to Qin Yun and bowed deeply: "Join your Majesty."
Qin Yun put his hands behind his hands and said calmly: "Get up, is there any movement in this bullshit temple? Has Gongsun Zan escaped here?"
A guard in Jinyi cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I am the one who was chasing Gongsun Zan all the way. He fled to the vicinity of Zhongnan Mountain and suddenly disappeared."
"Just like last time, it disappeared."
"I have already met with the brothers who were ordered to monitor here, but they didn't catch anyone."
"However, he has been injured and cannot run far."
"Then I noticed you were here."
Qin Yun narrowed his eyes: "Is there really some secret passage in Zhongnan Mountain?"
Jin Yiwei replied: "Your Majesty, this has not been found yet..."
Qin Yun waved his hand: "Okay, let's return to the team. There are too many forbidden troops and it is easy to cause disturbances. Just stay at the foot of the mountain."
"All the Jinyi guards follow me up the mountain to see what this bullshit temple is like!"
"Gongsun Zan must be found out!"
He became fierce, and the dragon and the tiger walked out.
No matter what, there is still Jue Xiu as a chess piece in Zhongnan Mountain, so he will definitely not return without success.
The Jin Yiwei followed quickly. There were dozens of them, but they were like thousands of troops. They didn't say a word, and they were full of oppression.
Suddenly, a group of people came to the foot of Zhongnan Mountain, and they looked extraordinary.
Such a dazzling sight would naturally not escape the eyes and ears of Chaotian Temple.
The upper levels of the inner temple were in shock!
The monks were in an uproar!
"President, there are people coming from the bottom of the mountain. They are all oppressive people. The leader is extremely noble!"
Abbot Juezhen's eyes were as solemn as a glaring King Kong.
Huisheng’s voice of knocking on the wooden fish stopped slightly.
He raised his old eyelids, his dry mouth trembled slightly, and murmured: "Extremely noble?"
"Could it be the emperor?"
His words were too casual and without much reverence.
The leader of the monks, Juezhen's bald head was rarely sweaty, and he said anxiously.
"I'm not sure about this, but what should we do now? That bastard Gongsun Zan sneaked out without telling us and assassinated important officials of the imperial court again."
"This good-for-nothing was caught by the emperor's men, seriously injured, and now he's escaped again!"
"I originally wanted to kick them out, regardless of life or death, but the people under the mountain are all the imperial spies, and there is no way to throw them out. We shouldn't have accepted them in the first place!!"
Huisheng straightened his rickety back, facing the Buddha statue, and never turned around.
Wei Wei reprimanded in displeasure: "Juezhen, I've told you many times that you have to stop being impatient!"
Hearing this, Juezhen, who was as powerful as the leader of the monks, trembled slightly.
He put his hands together respectfully: "Yes, host."
Host Huisheng was silent for a moment, then suddenly chuckled and said: "Gongsun Zan did it on purpose. Even if things fail, he can still use this method to completely bring down the Chaotian Temple."
"Finally achieved his goal of being the master of Xiliang."
"And Gongsun Zan is just an ant. Apart from that woman from Xiliang, no one else can come up with such a crazy conspiracy."
"The emperor is not simple, and neither is the woman he once had."
Abbot Juezhen's face was a little gloomy, but he looked very strong.
The voice was like thunder: "We can talk about Wang Min slowly."
"But the people coming down from the mountain are so close, how to deal with them?"
Host Huisheng stood up slowly. His unprepossessing back was filled with Buddha nature, but there was a hint of a conspirator's smile at the corner of his mouth!
"It's not a big deal. I've already made a guess about who's coming. I'll hide Gongsun Zan at the bottom of the Sutra Pavilion. I'll go and greet the guests myself!"
Juezhen raised his head sharply, with surprise in his eyes!
The host actually wants to receive it in person?
Could it be that someone coming is very important?
He really couldn't think of anyone who could attract the attention of the host. Apart from the emperor and Wang Min of Xiliang, who else could he be?
At this moment, outside the palace.
In an extremely inconspicuous corner, a monk wearing cassocks flashed past. He overheard all the conversations between Hui Sheng and the two.
He just sleeps!
Although he was under surveillance, he was controlled by the Gu, and he still kept looking for opportunities and looking for the late emperor's will.
By chance, I heard about Gongsun Zan’s hiding place!
After a while.
In front of the ancient mottled vermilion gate of Chaotian Temple, an uninvited guest came.
Qin Yun formally glimpsed the Chaotian Temple and glanced away.
The incense is flourishing, there are many pilgrims, and the earth and trees are extremely prosperous, without any feeling of withering in the winter.
The Buddha's voice trembles.
The pilgrims talked a lot.
"Chaotian Temple is really amazing. My wife has given birth to a son. Haha, I came here to fulfill my wish. Everyone, go and worship!"
"The abbots are all living Bodhisattvas, and my chronic illness has also been cured."
"I want to donate 100,000 sesame oil to show my respect!!"
"Chaotian Temple, the place of Lord Buddha!"
"..."
Listening to the joy of the pilgrims, he was puzzled. How wonderful is this Chaotian Temple?
Looking at the temple again, it's like looking at a city, too big and too glorious.
His heart seemed to be bleeding!
These buildings, these splendors, were actually built with "my own" money.
Recalling that Concubine Xiao Shu used to live frugally and use her private money to provide disaster relief for herself, and then seeing the prosperity and splendor of Chaotian Temple, he felt unhappy and resentful for a while.
The temple gate leads to hundreds of steps.
A group of monks in cassocks came down the steps. They had compassionate faces and clasped their hands, as if they were out to greet some distinguished guest.
Qin Yun squinted his eyes, looking a little cold, suppressing his murderous intent.
These people should be here to pick him up.
I cursed in my heart: "What a fool, your nose is so sharp, I came out to greet you as soon as I arrived."
"Who is the old man at the head? Is he the abbot of Chaotian Temple?"
"You look like a traitor who is trying to deceive the world and steal your reputation. One day, your mask of hypocrisy will be torn off!"
"Gongsun Zan, you'd better not hide, otherwise, huh!!"
