Jiang Yuanhan walked in the door and walked slower and slower, trying hard to understand Wen Qingzhu's meaning.
But after looking at it for a long time, he still didn't understand.
However, Cui Li saw the intrigue between the two of them and asked again: "Don't worry, Princess, I will take good care of myself and I will definitely come back when the time comes!"
"Tell the emperor that I don't want to care about you." Wen Qingzhu turned around and threw the problem to Jiang Yuanhan.
Cui Li immediately turned around and explained his purpose.
Jiang Yuanhan's first reaction was: "You don't need to go there now, so why do you have to go there? Besides, there are many doctors with superb medical skills around Fu Lie!"
"Weichen went there in his own name. The regent has never been in such a situation. Even in Cangzhou, he also tried his best to send news. This time there is indeed no news at all. I am really worried."
What Cui Li said was so sincere that Jiang Yuanhan was moved.
Fortunately, Wen Qingzhu coughed twice in time, and Jiang Yuanhan remembered that Cui Li was Mr. Cui's only bloodline.
Then he took on the emperor's airs and said, "Then I order you to stay?"
"The humble minister has no choice but to resist the imperial edict and be disrespectful, and then he will die to apologize after returning to the capital." Cui Li replied word for word.
Hearing this made Wen Qingzhu doubt whether Cui Li didn't like women and liked Fu Lie
Seeing how stubborn he was, Wen Qingzhu had no choice but to agree and dispatch secret guards to him.
Cui Li didn't want to agree at first, but when he saw Wen Qingzhu's serious face, he had to change his words: "Wei Chen obeys."
Now that it has become inevitable for him to leave Beijing, Wen Qingzhu is a person who is looking forward.
He was immediately given another task: "The teacher is also over there. If you meet the teacher, you must persuade him to take care of yourself first and ask him to send me some news."
"Is it Mr. Ji Shang?" Cui Li was not sure.
Wen Qingzhu nodded: "Well, it's him. According to Zhao'er's prediction, he may die in Yongheguan. I can't worry about it, so since you've gone, try your best to watch the teacher. If you can't bear it, write to me and tell me. Let’s figure it out.”
"I know, Princess, don't worry. Mr. Ji is the treasure of Daqi, and we will do our best to protect him." After Cui Li made his promise, he resigned and left.
After he left, Wen Qingzhu looked at Jiang Yuanhan: "It's so late, why are you here?"
Jiang Yuanhan pursed his lips and moved to sit next to Wen Qingzhu.
He didn't dare to look into her eyes, lowered his head, and stammered: "I, I asked Brother Mingxuan, and what he said was very simple."
"What?" Wen Qingzhu didn't react at once.
Jiang Yuanhan's face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye, all the way to his ears.
It took him a long time before he said again: "Yes, it is a humane thing."
Wen Qingzhu suddenly felt like laughing looking at him for some reason.
She really didn't expect that Jiang Yuanhan would come to her to ask about this matter.
After thinking for a moment, Wen Qingzhu stood up and went out to ask Lu Tao to get a book.
When Lu Tao came back, Wen Qingzhu was explaining the human body structure diagram to her.
…
The night is over and the morning is dim.
On the main road of the capital, hundreds of officials dressed in mourning clothes rushed to the palace.
In the square of Xuanzheng Hall, the coffins of Emperor Shunde, Concubine Wei and Concubine Luo were parked one behind the other.
On the left and right were a funeral procession of thousands of people, extending all the way outside Xuanwu Gate.
Spirit flags embroidered with dragon patterns rolled in the air, and yellow and white paper money flew all over the sky.
The dull and heavy sound of bells and tripods echoed throughout the square.
Civil and military officials arrived one after another and knelt on the passages on both sides.
In front of the funeral throne, Jiang Yuanhan was helping Jiang Yuanan up: "Brother, I will leave it to you. When the time comes, I will send someone to meet you."
"Thank you, Your Majesty! I will send my father to the imperial mausoleum in person!" Jiang Yuanan got up and lowered his head to see Jiang Yuanhan's childish face.
Wen Qingzhu stood beside them and reminded him: "The prince can set off, the time has come."
Jiang Yuanan turned his head and looked over, bowed and said, "Qiniang will ask Madam to take care of her."
"Don't worry, Prince, I will take good care of Qiniang, and so will the Lei family." Wen Qingzhu nodded slightly.
Jiang Yuanan then turned his head and began to walk slowly towards Xuanwumen.
The captain of the honor guard who followed shouted loudly: "Wake up!"
The coffin was lifted, and the team slowly moved outside the city.
After about half an hour, the funeral procession completely left the palace and was never seen again.
Wen Qingzhu glanced at the civil and military officials below, breathed a deep sigh of relief, and finally officially started the Zhaowu Year.
On this day, the whole country mourned, and the death knell never stopped for a long time.
The entire capital fell silent.
Back in Huaqing Palace, Huixin and Wen Qingxin were waiting for her.
Lu Tao sent Wen Qingzhu in, led the palace servants away and closed the door.
"See you, Princess." Hui Xin clasped her hands together and bowed slightly.
Wen Qingzhu waved his hand and asked him to sit down, but he refused.
Then she stared at Huixin and asked, "You're not here to intercede with those monks, are you?"
"Princess, they are all from Fengguo Temple. They were only deceived by Jiu Zhu and thus defiled the mourning hall of the late emperor. I beg you, for the sake of the host, to be kind to them."
Huixin did not directly ask Wen Qingzhu to let them go.
Wen Qingzhu sighed slightly: "You don't have to come to beg me at all. Except for the three people brought in by Jiu Zhu, the rest of the people are basically implicated. If they hadn't helped you and Qing Xin escape from Fengguo Temple, I'm afraid it would have been you Now that they are all in the hands of Jiu Zhu, I will not punish them severely. It is just a fault of not being a godfather. Apart from such a big mistake in Fengguo Temple, the presiding master cannot absolve himself of the blame!"
"Princess!" Huixin suddenly raised her head and said with a worried face, "The presiding uncle is old, and many things are not managed by him personally, but are assigned to some uncles to arrange."
"If that's not right, let the uncle who arranged it take responsibility." Wen Qingzhu took over his words with a smile.
Huixin lowered her eyes and whispered Amitabha.
Seeing his appearance, with the silent Wen Qingxin standing next to him, a thought suddenly appeared in her mind.
"Actually, it's not that I can't forgive you, uncles. You just need to do one thing for me."
A glimmer of hope appeared in Huixin's eyes: "Is this true, Princess?"
Wen Qingxin, who was just standing, suddenly raised his eyelids and his eyes wandered between the two of them.
Wen Qingzhu naturally noticed her gaze and asked with a smile: "Qingxin thinks, what do I want Huixin to do?"
As soon as these words came out, Huixin calmed down and vaguely guessed Wen Qingzhu's request.
"Folk women don't dare to make rash guesses." Wen Qingxin tightened her hands in her sleeves, becoming more humble.
Wen Qingzhu didn't embarrass her. Anyway, Huixin escaped this time. It was probably not really the help of Huixin's uncles.
"Just now you said that the host is too senior and can no longer take care of things, so it would be a good time to find someone younger. I think you would be good."
Huixin raised her eyes and refused almost without hesitation: "No!"
He was too determined, but showed two abnormalities.
Wen Qingzhu stared into his eyes and said slowly: "Do you have something to hide?"
"This..." Hui Xin closed her eyes, her former composure showing signs of cracking.
This reaction made Wen Qingzhu even more curious. Huixin was so repelled by her being the host. What would happen if he became the host
At this time, Wen Qingxin came out and persuaded: "Fengguo Temple can be controlled by people like Jiu Zhu the first time, and it can naturally be controlled the second time. The princess does not trust others, she only trusts you, so this host The position must be yours."
Huixin raised her head and met her gaze. The woman in front of her and the person in the fire that day slowly overlapped.
He took a step back suddenly and turned his head to avoid Wen Qingxin's sight.
Why did he still come to this point
Is her fate really unchangeable
"If you become the host, will it affect Qingxin?" Wen Qingzhu noticed the abnormality between them and asked.
Wen Qingxin turned around and knelt down: "Princess, you have changed history, so Fengguo Temple will naturally not repeat the same mistakes. I believe you. Huixin just can't get over the hurdle in his heart. Give him a few days."
"Do you know what will happen?" Wen Qingzhu looked at Wen Qingxin. Her expression was calm, and there was an imperceptible fearlessness hidden deep in her eyes.
After careful consideration, Wen Qingzhu agreed to Wen Qingqing's proposal.
He stood up and called Lu Tao in.
"You make a decree. The abbot of Fengguo Temple is old and is not suitable for the time being. The emperor will select a new abbot someday and let them prepare."
"Yes." Lu Tao took the order and left.
Wen Qingzhu looked at the two of them: "The imperial food eaten by Fengguo Temple must be used by the emperor. I don't care this time. If there is another time, even if you kneel in front of me to beg for mercy, I will not hesitate. Eradicate Fengguo Temple!"
Hui Xin was shocked, and finally she could only lower her head to show that she understood.
Wen Qingzhu just stood there, watching Huixin and Wen Qingxin leave.
Soon Bai Di personally went to Fengguo Temple with Wen Qingzhu's instructions.
The host seemed to have anticipated this day and accepted it calmly. At the same time, he told his disciple: "From today on, you will help Huixin."
"Yes." A young monk next to him bowed his head and said yes.
The moment his eyelids drooped, there was a trace of unwillingness in his eyes.
Bai Di returned to the palace and immediately met Wen Qingzhu and told her about the situation at Fengguo Temple.
After listening to Bai Di's words, Wen Qingzhu said nothing.
When it got dark, the palace became quiet.
Except for the patrolling imperial guards and guards, not a single sound was heard anywhere.
Wen Qingzhu changed into his regular clothes, took Lu Tao with him, and quietly arrived at the Lu family's house in a carriage.
She came here today to visit Lu Lei.
When Wen Qingzhu arrived at the door of Lu Lei's bedroom, he met Liang Pingshu who was walking out of it.
When she saw Wen Qingzhu, she was also startled.
But soon, Liang Pingshu bowed and said, "See you, Princess!"
"You're welcome." Wen Qingzhu raised his hand.
Liang Pingshu explained that she still had something to do and evacuated the place.
Wen Qingzhu looked at her leaving figure and knew that Liang Pingshu still had a grudge in her heart.
But she believed that one day Liang Pingshu would understand her intentions.
In this world, there are always so many people who repay kindness with evil.
When they arrived in the bedroom, Lu Lei had already sat up, cupped his hands and said, "See you, Princess. I am inconvenient and cannot salute the Princess."
"You are a hero of Daqi, so what if you don't have to pay attention to this courtesy." Wen Qingzhu went over and sat down in front of the bed.
A maid came up with tea. Lu Tao knew that they had something important to discuss, so he led the outsiders to evacuate the inner room.
Wen Qingzhu glanced at Lu Lei. He had several injuries on his body, but he looked much better.
"Have you heard about what happened in Dingyuan?"
Since Lu Lei knew about Lu Ce's rebellion, he knew that Wen Qingzhu would come, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.
His tone was a little low: "I know that after dad plans to stabilize things in the capital, he will hand over the military power to my wife, and he will go to Dingyuan to support my uncle."
"Give me the military power?" Wen Qingzhu looked at him.
Lu Lei said seriously: "This is what dad has thought about carefully. The new emperor has ascended the throne and the border is unstable. If my uncle didn't take care of my brother's matter, dad might be relieved, but this time the matter is too serious. Ogawa is young and is very capable in leading troops in battles, but he does not have much experience in intrigues, so Dad is worried."
"Then have you ever thought about your father staying and letting me go to Dingyuan?"
