Adore Trick of Beauty

Eunuch Lin followed Long Chu in small steps, watching the bright yellow curtain flicker to reveal Xiao Fengming's face. He rested his chin on his hand, seeming to be deep in thought.

"Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. Although the Queen Mother is furious, she will not attack the Emperor at this time." Eunuch Lin said in a low voice.

Xiao Fengming, who was behind the Jade Crown, slightly hooked up his thin lips: "I'm not worried. I already knew that the Queen Mother would be so angry. When the late Emperor attacked Qin, the Queen Mother also disapproved of it."

After he finished speaking, he paused and asked, "The siege at Qixia Pass has been relieved. What about General Nie?"

"Back to the emperor, General Nie is doing well, and the five thousand troops and horses have not suffered much loss. Thanks to the Qixia Pass, which blocked the Qin army's cavalry." Eunuch Lin replied with a smile.

Xiao Fengming nodded with a smile: "General Nie is also both wise and brave. Otherwise, someone else may not be able to hold on for so long. General Nie became famous at a young age, and it is indeed not a false name."

He paused and suddenly asked: "Is there any news from Donglin Temple?"

Eunuch Lin thought for a while: "No, but I heard that Bi Gui concubine asked for repairs on her own after entering the temple, and no outsiders were allowed to disturb her. At this time, I'm afraid Bi Gui concubine didn't know the news about General Nie's escape."

Xiao Fengming sighed lightly: "It's hard for her too. Isn't it very hard to practice Qing Dynasty? Go and pass on my instructions, bring the news of General Nie's escape, and order her not to do Qing Xiu, but to return to the palace in a few days. Feng I should miss her, I..."

He missed her too... The last sentence turned into a sigh. He didn't know when, when he saw the high eaves of the "Yonghua Palace", he couldn't help but want to see her. The "Phoenix Tower" he promised to build for her was still under preparation. It was a towering platform and a luxurious palace. Suddenly, he understood why Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty wanted to build a golden house to hide Gillian.

Facing the woman he loved, as an emperor, he just wanted to hide her in the deep palace. Her beauty and her smile could only belong to him from now on.

He missed her. Otherwise, behind these vermilion palace walls and these exquisite palaces, he would be that deeply lonely widowed man, prosperous and wealthy, dominating the world. Without her smiling voice, what would he really gain?

"Yes, I obey the order!" Eunuch Lin quietly stepped back, and couldn't help but laugh as he watched the dragon chugging past.

…

Two days later, Eunuch Lin personally came to the "Xinxin Pavilion" in Donglin Temple with the imperial edict. Xia Lan and Ming Qiu hurriedly walked out with their heads lowered, and knelt down: "Eunuch Lin, my mother-in-law has given instructions. She must clean up her house and not allow outsiders to disturb her."

Eunuch Lin looked at the two maids and said gently: "Our family has brought the imperial edict. Please ask the empress to come out to receive the edict."

Xia Lan and Ming Qiu were trembling: "Eunuch Lin... my mother-in-law really said... no outsiders are allowed to disturb her, and she will not leave the cabinet... otherwise..."

"Why don't you, slave, take over the order for your Majesty?!" Mingqiu said boldly.

"Presumptuous! Are you brave enough to take advantage of your ambition? Who are you? How dare you take the initiative and take orders without authorization?" Eunuch Lin's expression changed and he scolded.

Xia Lan and Ming Qiu looked at each other and saw in each other's eyes that they were doomed. what to do? It goes without saying that my master is deeply favored by the emperor. This is the crime of deceiving the emperor, and they will all be finished one by one.

"Amitabha—" a long Buddha's name came, and a person in front of him, wearing a red cassock, walked slowly. Eunuch Lin looked at it and couldn't help but put away the angry look on his face and put his hands together in a salute.

"It turns out to be the abbot!" Eunuch Lin said in surprise.

"Donor Nie is practicing Qing Dynasty. She told Lao Na that she must complete the practice for seventy-seven and forty-nine days. When you make a great wish in front of Lord Buddha, you can't break your promise." The abbot smiled, and his kind face made people feel comfortable and peaceful. .

When Eunuch Lin heard this, he was a little embarrassed: "But our family came with an imperial edict. If the empress does not accept the edict, it will be difficult for our family to reply."

The abbot pronounced the Buddha's name again and said with a smile: "It's okay, let me take over the order for Almsgiver Nie. She is doing pure cultivation inside, and she must not indulge in secular thoughts."

The abbot and the abbot were so virtuous and respected that even Xiao Fengming did not dare to be arrogant in front of him. Instead, he always treated him with courtesy and treated him as an imperial master. Now that the abbot spoke in person, there was no reason for Eunuch Lin to disobey him. He smiled and said: "In this case, our family will I have handed over the emperor's imperial edict to the abbot and abbot. Our family has returned to the palace to resume its duties."

The abbot lowered his eyes and said calmly: "Then I would like to thank Eunuch Lin for his accommodation on behalf of Almsgiver Nie."

Eunuch Lin led the people out of Donglin Temple. The abbot watched his group leave, then turned his attention to Xia Lan and Mingqiu who were kneeling on the ground. At that time, the monks around them were all in the distance. He looked at them for a while and said with a smile: "Everyone, get up."

Xia Lan and Ming Qiu looked at each other, feeling uneasy. They gritted their teeth and looked at the abbot's kind face, feeling that their little secrets were completely invisible in front of this wise old man.

"Don't be afraid, Eunuch Lin is gone. You can tell me where your mother-in-law has gone..." The abbot's face was kind, his snow-white eyebrows were drooped, but the last sentence he said was enough to make Xia Lan and Mingqiu changes color.

"Abbot, Abbot!" Xia Lan and Mingqiu were shocked. They knelt down and kowtowed again and again: "Abbott, you are compassionate, my mother-in-law really has the last resort!"

The abbot smiled and sighed: "Get up, I won't tell anyone. If I tell anyone, your empress will be in doom today."

…

Nie Wushuang set off in the swaying carriage at dawn, with Yang Zhi in the simple carriage. Nie Wushuang was wearing a coarse cloth dress and was leaning against the cushions in the carriage. Yang Zhi stood aside, silent.

The carriage shakes, Nie

Wushuang suddenly said: "I wonder if His Majesty Prince Rui's anger has subsided?" She said goodbye to Xiao Fengqing last night, but Xiao Fengqing only coldly threw her one word: "Get out!"

That night, she had to leave the main tent and sleep in the same tent with Yang Zhi. If Yang Zhi hadn't been a chamberlain, this would have been the biggest embarrassment in his life.

Yang Zhi smiled bitterly: "His Royal Highness Prince Rui has a bad temper. He really got angry this time, otherwise he would not be so angry and not send someone to escort him."

Nie Wushuang thought for a while, but his face was calm: "It doesn't matter, we should be more cautious on the road, it should be fine. The Qin army is retreating now, and there are very few chances of encountering the Qin army along the way."

"I hope so." Yang Zhi endured it, and finally did not say that the refugees, thieves, and deserters along the way were all deadly.

There were only three of them together with the driver. Nie Wushuang leaned on the soft cushions and fell asleep. After a while, there was the sound of iron hooves coming from behind.

She was frightened and couldn't help but get up and asked: "Is someone catching up?"

Yang Zhi said calmly: "Perhaps His Highness Prince Rui sent someone to protect the empress."

Nie Wushuang was relieved and was about to speak when Yang Zhi stuck his head out and looked for a while before returning to the carriage with a strange look on his face: "Your Highness, you are not one of His Highness Prince Rui's men."

"Who is that?" Nie Wushuang asked doubtfully.

"It seems to be the soldiers and horses of Qi State." Yang Zhi said hesitantly.

Nie Wushuang was startled, but now they had left the camp, and Xiao Fengqing was too angry to send anyone to protect her. Now she was like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

"What should I do?" Nie Wushuang couldn't help but ask. Yang Zhi was also at a loss. Although he knew that Xiao Fengqing would not let them fall into a dangerous situation, the fact that there was no one around him still made him feel nervous.

The two of them were in shock and confusion, and the soldiers and horses behind them had already caught up.

The cavalry kicked up dust and enveloped their carriage in it. Nie Wushuang sat in the carriage with breathless concentration. The coachman has stopped the carriage.

Just when she wanted to ask Yang Zhi to look out, a gurgling voice suddenly came from outside: "Gu Qinghong, there are many bandits along the way. I wonder if the girl can go north to Lingzhou with Gu."

Nie Wushuang's face changed slightly, and after a long time, she sneered: "I appreciate the kindness of Prime Minister Gu, but I am alone along the way, and I am afraid that some people will watch and steal from me. Although my humble life is not valuable, there are still some usefulness."

Gu Qinghong was silent for a while and then said: "Whether you believe it or not, I sincerely escort you to Congjiang. This is not the place you should come."

Nie Wushuang fell into silence listening to his words.

Yang Zhi lifted the car curtain and said seriously: "If Mr. Gu is willing to sincerely escort my wife back, I will thank Mr. Gu for his kindness on behalf of my master."

He bowed after saying this. Gu Qinghong watched as the car curtain remained motionless, and a heavy silence spread around him.

After a long time, Nie Wushuang's voice came from behind the car curtain: "Being respectful is worse than obeying orders. Besides, I don't have a choice, right?"
