The guards at the bamboo building have been transferred away.
The moonlight is just right tonight, and the moon like a silver plate hangs high in the sky.
Zhenren Ning Yin held the lantern, and the master of Qingyun Temple walked behind her, and the two of them entered the bamboo building one after the other.
Qu Moying promised them to take the guards away, but not for long.
After entering the house, the two of them couldn't wait to look through the items. The Qingyun Temple Master examined each item carefully, and then sent them back cautiously.
There are actually not many things in here. Some of them were obviously added later, exuding a sense of luxury and splendor. The master of Qingyun Temple also examined them carefully.
What he read the most were some books on the desk. After the master of Qingyun Temple sat down, he flipped through the pages one by one. The more he read, the more he frowned, and his hands couldn't help but become heavier.
"Master... isn't it?" Master Ning Yin asked cautiously.
The candlelight in the room was not bright, and the face of the master of Qingyun Temple was reflected in it, looking a little dark blue. It was hard to believe that the person in front of him was the extremely famous hermit.
The so-called masters, with an immortal look and spirit, this Qingyun Temple master now looks more like a sinister and strange woman, and she is also an elderly woman with a twisted personality...
"Not yet." The Qingyun Temple Master threw the book in his hand away, his face became more gloomy, and he looked around, basically checking everything, and said to himself: "How could there be nothing, how could there be... No, there must be something."
“Master… could it be that we didn’t see it clearly before?” Master Ning Yin looked at the expression of Master Qingyun and asked unconfidently.
"I've checked more than once. As long as it's the princess's stuff, every single one of it has been checked thoroughly. It's impossible that it's not there. It must be there..." The master of Qingyun Temple shook his head. He was annoyed, but he didn't dare to throw anything more away for fear of arousing the suspicion of the King of England.
She didn't care about the British princess, but was worried about being discovered by the British king.
As long as they are women, as long as they are women of the royal family, this matter of fate is what they care about the most. I have thrown out such a big bait and given the British princess such a huge benefit through the rumors outside. There is no way she will not listen to me.
He was just a small guard, so what did he do with me
Moreover, he can use this little guard to keep the British princess firmly in his hands, and the benefits to himself are almost immeasurable.
But why haven’t I found it after searching for so long
She had checked other places in the temple more than once, and now there was only this bamboo building. This was Princess Hengyang's favorite place. If there was anything, it was most likely hidden here.
Now he has searched through everything, but the final result is nothing, and the master of Qingyun Temple is feeling annoyed.
"Master... it's almost time." Master Ning Yin looked out the window and reminded.
"Look through it again." The Qingyun Temple Master gritted her teeth. She didn't believe that it was really useless. The most likely place was here. If that thing was in the hands of Princess Hengyang, it would definitely fall here.
"Check if there are any dark corners or secret passages here." The master of Qingyun Temple ordered.
Master Ning Yin looked out the window and felt that he would not have enough time, but he did not dare to disobey the words of the Qingyun Monastery Master. He agreed softly and lay on the ground to search carefully...
There was only this small space inside and out, and I checked again, but still found nothing.
Master Ning Yin looked out the window again: "Master..."
"Go back first and come back tomorrow night." The master of Qingyun Temple said, knowing that the time was almost up and if he waited any longer he would be discovered.
She stood up straight, looked around, and then the corners of her eyes raised, turning her beautiful eyes into triangular shapes.
"Yes!" Although Master Ning Yin was embarrassed, he did not dare to refuse.
The two men tidied up a little, put all the items back in place, checked to make sure nothing was missing, then left with the lanterns, and the bamboo house became quiet again.
After walking for a while, the Qingyun Temple Master asked, "Could it be that the Princess of England took away something important?"
Master Ning Yin was walking, and when he heard her suddenly speak, he was startled, and hurriedly stopped, calmed himself down, and then turned around and asked: "Master... Are you really not aware of that thing at all?"
The master of Qingyun Temple shook his head with a gloomy expression.
Master Ning Yin didn't dare to ask any more questions. He just lowered his head and walked forward with the lantern in hand to illuminate the road. It was dark all around, and only some visible buildings could be faintly seen under the moonlight.
On such a night, doing such a thing can easily make people feel frightened and uneasy...
"The princess is always like this, indecisive. If she hadn't been... of this kind of personality, it wouldn't have been like this." The head of Qingyun Temple said in a low voice, with a bit of coldness in his voice.
Master Ning Yin couldn't respond intuitively, and he still stared at the road, as if he didn't hear what the Qingyun Temple Master was talking to himself, and he felt frightened.
If possible... She actually didn't want to stay here at all.
If possible, she would like to follow the prince to the East Palace. The prince's attitude seemed kind and he seemed to be interested in her, but it was not obvious.
Master Ning Yin was in a state of anxiety. If the prince asked the abbot for her, the abbot would definitely release her, just like Concubine Yuan. If her father hadn't come to her house and wanted to send her to the palace, she would never have left Qingyun Temple. Now that she thought about it... this was the only way...
She is really old...
Even if she was the most beautiful, what would it matter if she was locked up in the Taoist temple? She didn't want to be a so-called hermit. She was so beautiful that she could be a queen in the palace. If it was really about appearance, she didn't think she was inferior to Concubine Yuan, and others appreciated her appearance more.
The Great Zhou Dynasty has always been known for its elegance and beauty.
She is...
"Did you go to the bamboo house to look for something?" Under the lamp, Qu Moying was still awake. He was reading a few musical scores, waiting for news from An Dong.
"Yes, I saw it. They turned everything inside over and even wanted to pry open the ground. If it wasn't too late later, I might have really found something to pry it open and see." An Dong was staring at the master and disciple on the roof at the time. It was really an eye-opener to see what the master and disciple were doing.
What you say is a hermit or a beautiful lady, but look at what he did, he is just like a petty thief. I really don't know what to say.
These two people were searching inside. If you didn't know that they were nuns from Qingyun Temple, you would definitely misunderstand that they were thieves. The one who was searching carefully was called the careful one.
"Didn't find it?"
Qu Moying asked softly.
An Dong shook his head: "He didn't find it. He said he would come back to look for it next time. He also meant to blame Princess Hengyang."
An Dong also knew the story of this incident. He was following the two people closely at the time and heard what the master of Qingyun Temple was talking to himself. At that time, Zhenren Ning Yin seemed to be silent and did not say a word. It was unknown whether she was in a daze or something. In the end, if the master of Qingyun Temple had not called her a few times, she might not have responded.
"Master, do you want me to go and ask around?" An Dong asked.
"No need!" Qu Moying shook his hand. "If you go and ask, people will definitely be suspicious. It's better to wait and see what happens."
Looking for something? Looking for something that Princess Hengyang left behind. What is it
Princess Hengyang died in Qingyun Temple. The master of Qingyun Temple must have been by her side at the time, but Princess Hengyang said nothing, which shows that she did not want to leave this thing to the master of Qingyun Temple.
A few years passed and he still hadn't found it, but suddenly he found it, and he turned over everything in the Qingyun Temple that was related to Princess Hengyang, and finally he even put the blame on himself.
What on earth is this thing? Why didn’t the master of Qingyun Temple look for it before, but suddenly looks for it now
Who told her, or hinted to her, or... is there something else mysterious here
Qu Moying couldn't figure it out for the moment, but felt that there must be an opportunity here...
This is very strange...
And she has no clues now, so she can only wait and see what the master and disciple do...
"Master, when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came here, Master Ning Yin was always accompanying him." An Dong said with a strange look on his face.
Qu Moying's thoughts were pulled back, and he said thoughtfully: "Master Ning Yin... has been following me all the time?"
"I followed him all the time. I didn't notice him when he came, but when he left, I saw from afar that Master Ning Yin was following the prince. The prince was visiting incognito, so he didn't wait in the temple for long. He was traveling in a small carriage with a few people around him, so he stood out a lot following Master Ning Yin."
Ning Dong reports.
The prince came in such a small entourage that almost no one noticed him before. But when he left, more people paid attention to him, because he was accompanied by such a beautiful female priest. Master Ning Yin was not well-known in Qingyun Temple. Only a few people knew about her, and she rarely appeared on weekdays.
Her appearance was indeed outstanding. At least Qu Moying felt that she was the most outstanding among the female nuns in Qingyun Temple.
Recalling her previous disgusting plot in the Prince of Ying's Mansion, Qu Moying now knew all about her plot. She had taken a fancy to Pei Luoan, but she didn't know whether it was the intention of the Qingyun Monastery Master or her own idea. She dressed so brilliantly that day because of Pei Luoan...
A Taoist nun, sent to the East Palace... Actually, she was still willing to help...
Not only is she willing to help Master Ning Yin, but she also thinks that anyone who wants to be Pei Luoan's concubine and wants to enter the Eastern Palace can be helped by Qu Moying...
"Pay more attention to the actions of Master Ning Yin and the Master of Qingyun Temple." Qu Moying said slowly. She would have to stay here for a few more days, and her mother would have to consult with several elders of the clan. The matter of her returning to her ancestral home had been exaggerated by the Queen Mother, so she could not simply deal with it.
"I understand. What should we do with the guards?" An Dong understood.
"The powder has a chronic effect... It's not particularly strong, but if you use it a few times, you may die." Qu Moying sneered. Aunt Miao has seen this powder. If you use it a few times less, it's nothing. You will just feel uncomfortable, sore and weak, just like a normal illness. But if you use it a few more times, you may die of poisoning...
