Chapter 369: In the name of Buddha?
The veins on Su Zhiyi's forehead twitched.
I could barely suppress my anger.
She just wants to burn a stick of incense, why is it so difficult!
Who is stopping it?
She tilted her head and glared at the person who spoke.
Only then did he realize that it was the abbot.
Su Zhiyi held back and asked, "What advice do you have for me, Abbot?"
There were so many people here just now, why didn't he stop the others, but just shouted "slow down" when it came to her?
The abbot looked a little serious, his eyes fixed on her face, examining her carefully.
If it were anyone else, this kind of scrutinizing look would be considered rude, but when it came from the abbot, no one felt that way.
Yu Shengsheng was also wondering, what did the abbot mean by looking at Su Zhiyi like that?
Su Zhiyi herself was also confused, but she suddenly thought of something and her heart started pounding.
Could it be...
The abbot put his hands together and said, "Amitabha, well done, Princess. Please forgive me for my rudeness just now."
Su Zhiyi nodded: "Abbot, your words are too serious. I wonder what you mean?"
The abbot's voice was low and slow, falling into the ears of everyone in the hall.
"To be honest, in order to prepare for today's event, I have been meditating and asking the heavens for help these past few days. I once got a prophecy that I would meet someone with a special destiny in front of the Buddha in the temple today."
"Just now, I saw you, my lady, and saw your face..."
Yu Shengsheng's heart skipped a beat. Su Zhiyi, what kind of person is this?
She naturally didn't believe this set of arguments, but since it came from the abbot's mouth in front of the Buddha in the temple, it was very convincing.
She didn't believe it, but other people in the hall might not disbelieve it. Even if they only half believed it, the matter would become out of control.
Yu Shengsheng's expression remained unchanged, but his eyes turned cold as he looked at the abbot. Why did the abbot say that? Who was he working for?
Yu Shengsheng subconsciously looked at Fu Qingyin again. Fu Qingyin had a calm expression and lightly turned the ring on his hand. It was obvious that this was also beyond his expectations.
He told Yu Shengsheng with his eyes to wait and see what happens.
Su Zhiyi was ecstatic in his heart, his breathing became a little rapid. He looked at the abbot, waiting for the next words.
The abbot looked at her again, nodded and said, "Princess, please burn incense, and the Buddha will give you instructions."
Su Zhiyi nodded and pushed the wheelchair over to burn incense.
Even the prince standing by seemed to be lost in thought after hearing what the abbot had just said.
Su Zhiyi, could it be that she really has some good fortune? That's why the Queen Mother values her so much?
If that's true, the Crown Princess... can choose her.
Su Huaiyuan is a military general and has prestige in the army, which is what he currently lacks.
Wasn’t it because of Su Huaiyuan that I valued Su Yanshu?
Nan Shun was eyeing him covetously, and King Yi held the military power, but he had nothing in this regard.
If I could marry Su Zhiyi...
Unfortunately, she is a cripple.
While the prince was daydreaming, Su Zhiyi had already lit the incense.
He was muttering something.
Suddenly, she stopped, her eyes widened, her face flushed slightly, and the hand holding Xiang was trembling slightly.
It seemed like something was happening to her body.
The prince was confused and asked, "Princess? What's wrong with you?"
"But you're not feeling well?"
Su Zhiyi turned to look at him, her eyes red, but her expression was not one of pain, but of uncontrollable joy.
"Your Highness, I..."
"If you are not feeling well, give the incense to me and I will take your place."
Su Zhiyi shook his head: "Your Highness, this fragrant minister girl must be taken care of by yourself."
After saying this, under the gaze of everyone, Su Zhiyi held the incense in one hand and supported the wheelchair with the other.
She slowly stood up!
Everyone was shocked.
Some of the younger ladies couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
Yu Shengsheng narrowed her eyes slightly - oh, so that's what she was thinking.
Doctor Cui had said before that Su Zhiyi's leg condition was not that serious, so Yu Shengsheng suspected that Su Zhiyi was pretending in order to have her severely punished and leave the Su family.
Obviously, the goal was achieved.
Yu Shengsheng was still thinking that after the pilgrimage was over, he would find an opportunity to expose the matter.
Unexpectedly, Su Zhiyi was one step faster and lied in the name of Buddha in front of so many people, saying that his legs were healed.
Yu Shengsheng curled the corners of her mouth in a sarcastic arc and glanced at Madam Su.
Mrs. Su was stunned, as if struck by lightning. When she saw Yu Shengsheng's expression, she was immediately ashamed and embarrassed. She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but didn't know where to start.
Yu Shengsheng had already turned away.
Su Zhiyi was so excited that tears welled up in her eyes: "Buddha bless you, Your Highness, my legs..."
The prince was also surprised. Her leg was actually healed?
The prince didn’t care whether she was really good or had always been good. Only a thought flashed through his mind quickly: if she had no disability, then the position of the Crown Princess would not be impossible.
Thinking of this, the prince smiled gently and affectionately, and reached out to hold her arm.
"Come, I'll help you, be careful."
What this attitude represents is obvious.
Yu Shengsheng lowered her eyes to hide the surging emotions in them.
Su Zhiyi, no wonder she was so arrogant and dared to steal clothes, she had planned it long ago. She would recover in front of everyone and hold hands with the prince. Then everyone would think that she would be the only choice for the prince's consort.
Once I return to the palace, it will be a natural thing to ask for the emperor and empress's orders.
Queen! No wonder the Queen supported Su Zhiyi again and again. It turned out that they had been secretly colluding for a long time.
Yu Shengsheng became furious.
During this pilgrimage, it was not just her and Fu Qingyin who had plans, there were also several other forces who wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to act.
Su Zhiyi did not refuse the prince, how could she refuse? She was waiting for this moment.
Her face was slightly red, her eyes were full of autumn water, and supported by the prince, she walked slowly to the Buddha and burned incense with her own hands.
"I am praying to the Buddha here, first, that our dynasty will prosper, second, that the emperor and empress will live long and be healthy, and third, that the people will live and work in peace and contentment."
Her words were clear and almost identical to what the prince had said in front of all the officials.
Everyone quickly exchanged looks, and nothing was said.
Yu Shengsheng glanced at Su Huaiyuan opposite her.
Su Huaiyuan's expression also changed from initial astonishment to a frown, with suppressed anger and disbelief in his eyes.
Yu Shengsheng was secretly puzzled that Su Huaiyuan didn't know either, and seemed very dissatisfied and would not agree.
Why is this?
Because you don't want to stand on the prince's side?
This is not right either. If he didn't stand on the prince's side, he wouldn't have allowed Su Yanshu to get so close to the prince in the first place.
Yu Shengsheng couldn't understand it for a moment.
No matter why, Su Zhiyi must be prevented from becoming the Crown Princess.
The reason is simple: he just doesn't want Su Zhiyi to be complacent and act arrogantly by taking advantage of the prince's power.
She knew Su Zhiyi too well. Once she gained power, she would be ruthless and cruel, and no one knew how many people she would harm.
She was quickly trying to figure out how to stop it when something unexpected happened again in the hall!
Everyone exclaimed in surprise, and even the prince took a few steps back with a frightened look on his face.
Yu Shengsheng looked up and was shocked at the first sight.
