When Li Shengyi came to Huguo Temple again, his mood was completely different from the first time he came.
At that time, she was thinking about how to save Qin Songmo's life, and if Qin Songmo really died, where should she buy a villa and live a free and easy life.
The carriage was a little bumpy along the way. After Li Shengyi got off the carriage, his little face, which was usually slightly red, now had a little paleness.
Seeing the big hand stretched out in front of her, she subconsciously raised her head and saw her father standing with his back to the light, with a faint smile on his face.
"Be careful, it's slippery."
She nodded heavily and reached out to hold the slightly cool hand in front of her.
The Huguo Temple is always bustling with visitors, most of whom are wives and daughters of officials.
The weather is fine today, and it happens to be the fifteenth day of the lunar month. People are coming and going in the temple, and everyone is holding incense or candles in their hands, with faces that are either calm or pleading.
"There are a lot of people here today, so you must stay close to me and don't run around."
A cold voice sounded above her head, and Li Shengyi responded, but when she turned her head, she caught a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of her eye.
Compared to the previous time they met on the street, she always had an arrogant look on her face. At this moment, she looked haggard and her steps were unsteady, as if she would fall down at the next moment.
Qin Songmo stopped when he felt his little daughter slow down.
He followed her gaze and looked to the side. When he saw Yun Rusi's familiar face, he said, "Want to say hello?"
Li Shengyi shook his head. "There's nothing much to say. Her brother must have done a lot of bad things over the years."
When Qin Songmo heard this, a dark light flashed in his dark pupils.
It is indeed as the youngest daughter said, the Yun family is from the second prince's faction. Yun Zimu and Chu Huaiyu have been good friends over the years. Chu Huaiyu has a black heart, so how bad can Yun Zimu be?
Li Shengyi pursed his lips and said, "Let's go, Dad. Let's go talk to grandma."
Qin Songmo has an excellent memory.
He still remembered what he said to his little daughter when he brought her to see her mother for the first time.
With a sneer on his face, he held his little daughter's hand tightly and walked towards the back of the temple.
Back then, Qin Songmo came to the capital alone and ventured into the capital alone.
When he passed the imperial examination, the first thing he did was to bring his mother, who had been hastily buried, to the capital.
But what he didn't expect was that Wen Qingxiu had already sent people to dig out his mother's body from the grave and threw it into a mass grave, leaving the birds and beasts to eat all the rotten flesh on his mother's body.
The mass graves are mostly filled with bones, some of which have long been mixed with the soil, while others have not yet completely decayed.
That day, Qin Songmo, wearing a bright red top scholar robe, knelt on the ground and searched for his mother for the whole day.
Finally, he returned to the capital with his mother's tablet.
Later, he lit a perpetual lamp in the Huguo Temple to guide his mother, whose body was still warm...
Qin Songmo lowered his eyes and looked at his little daughter who was kneeling on the mat with a pious look on her face and a slight movement of her lips as if she was saying something. He pulled the corners of his lips and looked up at the tablet that was so familiar to him.
Mother, I seem to be going back on my word.
Shengyi is still so young, her wings are not yet fully grown, and the child is reluctant to leave her alone to suffer in the world.
In the future, I will definitely stay with my mother. But in recent years, I have wanted to protect Shengyi more. Shengyi is a very good child...
Li Shengyi didn't know what the people kneeling beside him said to his grandmother on the tablet.
She had never seen her grandparents in her previous life, and her grandparents-in-law also passed away when she was growing up.
She came to Huguo Temple today, not only to find the abbot, but also to ask her grandmother to bless her father.
[Grandma, if you are still alive, please bless my father to live a long life.]
[He's been through such a hard time, and things are about to get better. If he just died like this, wouldn't that be such a shame?!]
Let's make a deal. Tomorrow, during Chinese New Year, I'll make a few handsome men and beautiful women for you to burn in the fire. I'll have them accompany you, and you can play with them first.
[Oh, by the way, I'll fold a lot more gold ingot paper money for you and burn it all for you. Please bless my father to live a hundred years. He hasn't even taken me to see what this dynasty is like yet.]
Li Shengyi clasped his hands together, shaking his wrists constantly, with a slight frown on his little face, looking very sincere.
At the end, she did not forget to bend down and kowtow three times.
Qin Songmo, who was kneeling beside him, couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips.
Make paper money for your grandmother, in the shape of handsome men and beautiful women, and gold ingots.
What's going on in this little guy's head?
And she mentioned 'this dynasty'.
Qin Songmo narrowed his eyes, and when he saw his little daughter open her eyes, he stood up and held out his hand to her, "Let's go, the abbot is still waiting for us."
Before leaving, Li Shengyi turned around and waved goodbye to the tablet behind him, "Grandma, we're leaving now. If you miss us, please come back!"
Before Li Shengyi could finish asking his grandmother to come to him in his dreams, a big hand covered his little mouth.
She turned around and saw her father's helpless look, with a look of doubt in his watery almond eyes.
It's like saying 'What's wrong?'
Qin Songmo let out a long breath and whispered, "Let's go and find the abbot."
Seeing his little daughter nod obediently, Qin Songmo breathed a sigh of relief and took a last look at the tablet out of the corner of his eye.
Then he withdrew his gaze and never looked back.
The abbot was indeed waiting in the meditation room at the back of the temple.
But besides them, there were other people who wanted to see the abbot.
As soon as Li Shengyi followed her father to the courtyard of the Zen room, she heard a girl's high-pitched scream coming from the courtyard.
If she heard correctly...
Li Shengyi raised his eyes and met the eyes of the person beside him. His brows, which had just relaxed a short while ago, furrowed again. "Dad, is the abbot okay?"
Qin Songmo shook his head.
The Huguo Temple is a shelter for the royal family. If anyone causes trouble, they will be directly escorted to the Dali Temple.
The person making noise in the yard must be desperate.
The father and daughter walked into the yard one after the other. When the mother and daughter, who were making a fuss in the yard, realized someone was coming, a look of vigilance suddenly appeared on their tearful faces.
After seeing the appearance of the person who came, Yun Rusi, whose face was haggard and eyes were red and swollen from crying, suddenly became ferocious.
"Li Shengyi, it must be you. I'm going to kill you!"
Yun Rusi rushed forward screaming, her eyes red, and her eyes were full of murderous intent at such a young age.
She wanted to kill Li Shengyi to avenge her father, her brother, and the entire Yun family!
But Yun Rusi is just a child after all.
When she rushed forward and wanted to strangle Li Shengyi's neck, a resistance suddenly appeared at the back of her neck, forcing her to stop.
