The hut where Mingqiu Nun lived seemed to get locked all the time in case of interrupting her tranquility.
Now Qin Wanru was familiar with this path, and she took off the hanging lock and walked inside.
It was a Buddhist hall which served a not large Buddha locating in the centre of the room. The Buddh was the image of Guanyin with thousands of hands. It looked vivid, and its image was amiable but also dignified and elegant. People would show sincere respect to her in a simple glance.
Three incenses were burning in the hall, spreading a slight fragrance.
On the rush cushion, Mingqiu Nun was closing her eyes and reciting her Scripture in a low voice, but she looked extremely sincere.
Qin Wanru picked a rush cushion by her side and did her worshipping bow to Buddha. The rebirth made her much respect Buddha.
After her bowing and kneeling, she put her palms together devoutly and listened to Mingqiu Nun's
Her question made Nanny Zhou trembled a little bit as she understood her intention, but she dared not to answer. "What? Can't I say it? Is he hanging around at that evil woman's place all day? So shameless! He even dared to kiss and cuddle with that widow!" She gritted her teeth so hard that she nearly bit her flesh. She stared at Nanny Zhou with her insidious look as if she were Shui Ruolan. "Madam... Madam, it's only temporary. When we go to the capital city, we can ask our mansion to put more pressure on him and give him more beauties. By then, he will no longer feel his marriage interesting, and he wouldn't choose the opposite stance by then. Anyway, Young Lady was general's only daughter." Nanny Zhou comforted Madam Di in a hurry and said. "Fine, I'll tolerate it! I won't believe when we are in the capital city, Shui Ruolan can still have a good life, and Qin Huaiyong can lock me forever!" The poisonous liqui
"Brother Baiyu, what are you doing?" Qin Wanru laughed when she saw him. She squatted and picked up a stone near her and leaned to a side, throwing the stone back like a naughty kid. "Qin Wanru, what are you doing? I came here to report to you. Don't bite the hand that feeds you!" The lad shunned away from the flying stone and hid aside, but he didn't speak in a high voice. He lowered his voice on purpose. When he jumped off the tree, he waved to Qin Wanru and walked into an empty yard nearby. Qin Wanru followed him and walked in. "Brother Baiyu, what do you want to report to me?" Qin Wanru clapped her hands and asked while laughing. "Of course to ask you to be cautious about Qi Rongzhi. She cried out to come here this afternoon, but she fell over, so she had to come tomorrow." Qi Baiyu raised his head with smug. Therefore, Qi Rongzhi was supposed to come this afternoon, which meant she would arrive
"What's up?" Qin Wanru stopped, and she looked at Qi Rongzhi calmly. Her big eyes carried coldness, which couldn't be ignored. She looked indifferent and isolated. "Qi Baiyu, excuse me, could you please leave here because I have a word to tell Qin Wanru!" Qi Rongzhi was about to say something, but she found Qi Baiyu was standing beside her, so she pushed him and pointed to a direction for him. She didn't want Qi Baiyu to be here, and she knew compared with herself, Qi Baiyu would like to take Qin Wanru as his sister, and he would help Qin Wanru rather herself if anything happened. If her father didn't insist on having someone as her companion when she came to Jingxin Monastery, Qi Rongzhi wouldn't want Qi Baiyu to follow her. His following would only bother her! "I don't leave because if some accidents happened to you, they would blame me." Qi Baiyu rolled his eyes and snorted. He stepped aside a lit
Many of them came to watch the scene because they heard a loud sound. They didn't know the people in the yard or the identity of Qi Rongzhi, but a large number of people met Qi Rongzhi before, and they knew she was a noble miss from a well-known family. However, although she was royal, her behavior which cursed others instantly didn't match her identity. Because what she did couldn't match her identity, the crowds became larger. But some old women were guarding at the gate of the yard, and they dared not to approach to it, so they were listening and watching far away. The wall of Jingxin Monastery yard where many pilgrims were living was not high, and people could see inside when standing on their tiptoe. "What are you talking? Where did the rough country women come from, you dared to curse me!" Since Qin Wanru took Qi Rongzhi advantages just now, and she was furious. Finding someone dared to curse her, she opened her eyes wide
"Won't you really think you're the most distinguished miss in Jiangzhou!" After Qi Baiyu finished his sentence, he stayed away from Qi Rongzhi ears and leaned back, relying on the edge of the table with arms crossed in front of his breast. "You should think about how to explain this thing to your father. This accident was different from the last one. This time, many people witnessed the whole event, so you couldn't say whatever you want! If you did, then you are humiliating yourself and father. The military department has a conflict with politician department will lead to irreversible consequence, and Jiangzhou is near to the border!" He was speaking in an ordinary voice volume, but it was loud enough to allow other servants in the room to hear clearly. They were scheming various plans about how to blame the accident to others, but now they had to face this problem directly. In the past, when Qi Rongzhi tried to make Qin Wanru as the culprit
"Go to the capital city? Why do you want to go there?" Qin Wanru's smile froze on her face by the sudden news. In his previous life, Qi Baiyu went to the capital city several years later. Although Magistrate Qi would exalt someone to a higher position, one had to wait for a few years. After going to the capital city, where Qi Baiyu was appreciated and promoted by one person, he would become an official in a few short years. "If Qi Tianyu can go to the capital city, why can't I? I stay there to watch Qi Rongzhi falling ill and behaving like a stupid?" Qi Baiyu wore a smile as if he got over something. "If Qi Rongzhi stayed here, now her reputation is no better than that of Qin Yuru!" "So?" Qin Wanru didn't catch what he said. She blinked her bright eyes and then widened the eyes in an instant when an idea crossed her mind. "You mean, Qi Rongzhi goes to the capital city, too?" "Why not? In her case, it's impossible to find a gran
"They go with us?" though Qin Wanru had guessed it, she showed nothing but a slight surprise on her face. "Yes, they'll go with us... We owe more to Qi's mansion!" Qin Huaiyong tightly furrowed his brow and looked pale. Qi Ping of Magistrate Qi had got something on him for both Qin Yuru and what Madam Di had done this time. The result of their showdown was that Qi Huaiyong had to shelter Qi Rongzhi temporarily and tried to find a grand marriage for her. "From now on, you're just closer to your mother. As for others... don't care too much!" Qin Huaiyong said while looking at Qin Wanru. And the words meant more than he said. "Yes, I'll listen to you, father!" Qin Wanru said with great respect as if she didn't seem to catch the meaning of Qin Huaiyong's words which told her not to care too much about Madam Di. After Qin Huaiyong left, Qin Wanru did not immediately get ready for bed but made medicine under the lamp wi
Qin Wanru bowed her head and respectfully said, "Yes, my father said that yesterday... I'm afraid that I'll delay your business, so I want to finish what you ordered as soon as possible! " Then she reached out and pushed the mortar in which there was medicine powder to Mingqiu Nun for her examination. Mingqiu Nun just evaluated the medicine powder according to its shape. Next, she would smell and taste the medicine powder Qin Wanru made to tell whether it was good or not. With her high medical skill, Mingqiu Nun could immediately taste the Qingqu Grass as soon as she tasted the medicine powder. Qin Wanru needed the worry from Mingqiu Nun. Mingqiu Nun touched the stone mortar that Qin Wanru had pushed over, but she did not taste the medicine powder immediately. She slightly lowered her head with a somewhat dismayed look and did not speak. The room became quiet all of a sudden, and only the sound of the wind outside could be hear
"Not yet. My leg just cramped up." Shao Wanru reached out to touch her calf, but her belly was too big to reach it.The Emperor reached out his strong hand and massaged her calf. The young and handsome Emperor breathed a sigh of relief. "Thankfully, you are not going to deliver the baby!"As soon as he said this, Chu Liuchen realized he had said something wrong. He hurriedly explained, "I didn't mean that. It's good that you are not delivering the baby now."After saying that, he realized that something was wrong again and laughed.Shao Wanru laughed so hard that she couldn't speak. Since when did Chu Liuchen, who was as scheming and gloomy as a demon king, could not even speak clearly?"You're still laughing. Did I say anything wrong?" Chu Liuchen glared at her. However, with an elegant smile on his face, he didn't look domineering at all.Shao Wanru continued laughing happily. After a while, she s
Everything in the past had a cause, but this cause was concealed in many mists, so it appeared unreal.After reading the letter in her hand, Shao Wanru put it down with a trace of a smile across the corners of her eyes. She had been relieved of some things. Once she hoped that Qin Huaiyong would treat her like Qin Yuru.This was what she hoped for most in her last life. After all, at that time, she had always thought that she was Qin Huaiyong's biological daughter, and she had no idea that her identity had been seized by Qin Yuru. Right now, Shao Wanru didn't want to mention it again. After the rebirth, she found out the truth and could not be reluctant to get close to Qin Huaiyong anymore.The memories of her last life were fading away, and they become blurred in her eyes.Putting down the memorial in her hand, Shao Wanru smiled with an elegant and calm look in her eyes. "Madam, please pass my gratitude to Ningyuan Army Gen
Shui Ruolan followed the Nanny who led the way ahead and felt uneasy. Since she came to the capital, she occasionally associated with some Madams from aristocratic families. She would not attend their parties unless it was necessary.On the one hand, she always had a weak character. On the other hand, every time she joined them, some Madams always asked about Madam Di intentionally or unintentionally. They were polite to Shui Ruolan on the surface, but they sneered at her behind her back when talking about her.People in the capital thought that Madam Di was Qin Huaiyong's legal wife. Shui Ruolan was a divorced woman. How could she compare with a decent Madam from an aristocratic family? Her status was much lower than Madam Di's. Of course, there were some people who flattered her. They were two-bit nobodies who wanted to curry favor with Qin Huaiyong.This was the first time Shui Ruolan had entered the Palace since she came to the capit
"Yes, Her Highness fainted. Hurry up... Inform His Highness to go to see her. Mingqiu Nun is also there... Hurry up!" Yujie was so excited that she spoke incoherently."Are you stupid?" Xiao Xuanzi looked at Yujie as if she were a fool."Quick! It's true. Believe me." Yujie was overjoyed and kept urging."His Highness will get angry," Xiao Xuanzi reminded Yujie.Yujie blinked her eyes in confusion. "Go quickly. His Highness will be happy.""His Highness will be angry!" Xiao Xuanzi said loudly. He thought that Yujie was out of her mind. What nonsense she was talking about! Xiao Xuanzi had seen with his own eyes how his master treasured Princess Chen. Princess Chen fainted now, but Yujie said that Prince Chen would be happy. What could he be happy for?Xiao Xuanzi felt a chill on his back. He even thought that he might not be safe. Instead, this silly girl was giggling here.Yujie looked
The swing swayed slowly. Shao Wanru sat on it and slightly narrowed her clear eyes in the sun, enjoying the gentle breeze. After a shower, the sky cleared up. Under the blue sky, she felt quite pleasant.It was the third day since the violent political upheaval in the Palace. Everything had returned to the right path, and the Emperor had woken up. The Fake Dead Medicine was remarkably effective.Chu Qing planned to kill the Emperor and shift the blame onto Chu Liuyue. In the end, he occupied the Palace, but at the last moment, Chu Liuchen changed the ultimate outcome.Chu Qing was not the deceased emperor's son. As the truth was exposed, he became a surviving supporter of the previous dynasty.Consort Dowager Qing had an affair with the prince of the previous dynasty on the run and was pregnant. After that, she met the deceased emperor, who had come to wipe out the rebels. She seduced him and entered the Palace. Not long aft
Chu Liuyue looked at the Emperor indifferently. During this period, the Emperor often vomited blood. He was used to such a scene. He fainted again, but so what?He walked up to pull the Emperor up and said, "Father, you'd better write it carefully so as not to cause me more trouble..."The next moment, his hand paused before the Emperor. Abruptly, Chu Liuyue reached out to feel his breath, and his face changed drastically."Your Majesty... Your Majesty..." Derong was terrified and looked at Chu Liuyue. Likewise, he reached out to feel the Emperor's breath and knelt on the ground in a panic. "His Majesty... passed away!"Chu Liuyue looked sullen and reached out to feel his breath again. He found it hard to believe that the Emperor would die of anger because of him. Although he had said he was not afraid of this result, it became more difficult for him to clear up such a messy situation when the Emperor died. Since he was in t
Lights of every palace in the imperial Palace went out at night. There was a great noise somewhere. When the first scream came, many people put on their clothes and lit the lights again.These women in the Palace looked ghastly pale. They wanted to hide elsewhere but couldn't find shelter in the darkness. They trembled and huddled together, not knowing what had happened. Anyway, it didn't sound like a good thing. How could such a lot of awful noise appear in the Palace? The first idea that came to many people was that a rebellion was happening.In the night, Zhaoyi Di hurriedly followed a eunuch carrying a lantern and went to a palace out of use.Chu Liuyue was sitting in the middle of the hall."Greetings, Your Highness!" Zhaoyi Di said."How is it going?" Chu Liuyue asked."Commandery Prince Cheng has taken some people to the Emperor's resting place!" Zhaoyi Di reported."Good, well d
"From the previous dynasty?" Shao Wanru looked up. Though she was surprised, she didn't show it. She had figured it out. But after confirming it, she was wide awake."Will the Empress Dowager be in danger? I'll go to the Palace every day in the next few days!" Shao Wanru suggested."No, it's too dangerous!" Chu Liuchen shook his head."It doesn't matter. I have helpers by my side and bracelets!" Shao Wanru reached out her hand and cutely shook it. There was a pair of glossy sapphire bracelets on her wrist. At a glance, they were not ordinary.Chu Liuchen said with his face darkening, "No!"Such a close-fitting concealed weapon should be the last resort. As long as he thought Shao Wanru would be in such a dangerous situation, he would not be at ease. "Let Qin Yiyan accompany my Imperial Grandmother!""But someone should accompany and protect Noble Consort Lan. If those people deal with her..." Shao W
"Master, there is something wrong with the sandalwood." Qi Jue pulled an incense stick out of the incense burner at hand.Chu Liuchen took it and frowned. "What's the problem?"Qi Jue replied with a serious look, "There is something added to it. If it is used for a long term, one will be mentally and physically exhausted, then lack strength, and spit out blood. If putting another ingredient into the medicine at this time, it is very likely to cause sudden death."On the bed, the Emperor leaned against Noble Consort Lan with a pale face. Just now, he spat out blood again, and he felt very uncomfortable all over.Noble Consort Lan stroked the Emperor hard while looking toward Chu Liuchen with her red eyes, but she did not speak."What was added?" Chu Liuchen asked sternly. He didn't trust the imperial physicians in the Palace, so he brought Qi Jue to the Palace. After entering the Palace, Qi Jue did not check the
