"You actually dreamed about it too?"
Upon hearing this, Empress Dowager Du's face changed drastically and she became even more panicked.
Feng Yanzhi's scarlet eyes widened, "Did Mother also dream of her last night?"
"Hmm." Empress Dowager Du pressed her brows. "Both mother and I dreamt of her. I don't think it's a good thing. Perhaps she hasn't been reincarnated yet. I'll send Fu Xuan to find out the whereabouts of Master Ci'en and ask him to perform a ritual to appease her resentment and allow her to reincarnate sooner. Otherwise..."
Feng Yanzhi suddenly felt a little scared. If the resentment could not be resolved, Shangguan Ruian would appear in his dream a few more times, and he would be scared to death.
"Your Majesty, the Emperor." At this time, Fu Xuan bowed and walked in quickly.
"Is Master Ci'en in Huangjue Temple?"
"Your Highness, Master Ci'en is not at Huangjue Temple. The abbot said that Master Ci'en left Huangjue Temple the day before yesterday to travel, and his whereabouts are unknown."
Empress Dowager Du was displeased. Every time she took the initiative to look for him, his whereabouts were always unknown. "Did Master Ci'en leave a message for the Master of the Abbot when he went on his journey this time, knowing that I would send someone to look for him?"
Fu Xuan pulled out a brocade bag from his sleeve, and Feng Yanzhi grabbed it. "Is this what Master Ci'en left for our mother before he left?"
"Exactly."
"Mother, open it?"
Empress Dowager Du thought for a moment and said, "Open it."
Feng Yanzhi opened the brocade bag and took out the note, which was blank without a single word on it.
"Fu Xuan, did you take the wrong one?"
Fu Xuan hurriedly said, "You got it right. This was handed to me personally by the Master."
Feng Yanzhi frowned and glanced at the blank piece of paper again, "Mother, there are no words on it. Does that mean there is no solution?"
Empress Dowager Du took the note and looked at it carefully. "Ms. Yun, go get the red candle."
The blank paper was heated by the candle flame, and a line of small words appeared:
[Leaving the palace and living in the temple, chanting the Buddha requires sincerity, and resentment can be resolved and enter the cycle of reincarnation]
"Mother, Master Ci'en wants us to go to Huangjue Temple to recuperate."
Empress Dowager Du looked at the word "sincere" and felt a lump in her throat!
Wasn’t her vegetarianism and Buddhist chanting during those years pious enough?
Her son is now the one in charge of Beiyi, what else can she complain about?!
"It was just a dream. The one who murdered her was Duke Du. We, mother and son, were kept in the dark. We are upright and honest. There is nothing to be afraid of. We are in this state because of that couple who came to take advantage of us. Okay, Queen Mother is tired. You should go back to the Yangxin Palace and rest."
Feng Yanzhi also felt that Shangguan Mochen was causing the trouble, but she was still worried and anxious. "Okay, mother, you should take a good rest... Aunt Yun, Fu Xuan, you should serve mother well."
"yes!"
"Farewell to the Emperor."
"Your Majesty, please take a nap first. I will come to call you when dinner is ready." Yun Gu said as she helped the Empress Dowager towards the phoenix couch.
Empress Dowager Du was so confused that she couldn't sleep at all!
She had to take Xiao Lingyu's words and the words on the note seriously.
"I'm not sleepy. Please help me to the small Buddhist temple in the backyard."
Prince's Palace.
"Hahahaha...Brother Seal, I win."
Dongfang Yinzhang looked at Master Ci'en laughing heartily and said with disdain, "Look at you, you're laughing so smugly. Are you still the enlightened monk that the people think you are?"
"Ha..." Master Ci'en touched his bald head, "This is my true nature. Anyway, the common people didn't see it. Besides, I, a monk, can't pretend to be profound all day long."
"That's true." Dongfang Yinzhang glanced at the sky, "Your brocade bag should have been delivered to the palace by now."
Master Ci'en put away his smile and asked in an enigmatic manner, "How did you know that mother and son had the same dream? Did you do anything?"
Master Ci'en had to admit that the Oriental Seal's predictive and calculative abilities were a little better than his.
"I figured it out a few days ago, and you're right. There was indeed something tampering going on between the mother and son, which is why they had the same dream. But the tampering wasn't done by me."
"If it's not you, who else has this ability besides Nan Kun's Illusion of Leaving Home?"
Dongfang Yinzhang smiled and said, "This person...the secret cannot be revealed."
East Palace Study.
Shangguan Mochen sipped the tribute tea and looked at Su Xingyi sitting at the desk reviewing memorials with an aura that was no less impressive than his. He liked him even more.
Su Xingyi looked up at him and saw that his eyes were full of admiration for him. He spoke carefully:
"Grandfather, I have something to tell you."
"Hehe..." Shangguan Mochen said with a smile: "Just say whatever you want to say. Grandfather will do whatever you want."
"You saw the Emperor today. He is indeed ill. Let him rest for a few more days, okay?"
Shangguan Mochen also knew that he had been arrogant in the palace these past few days. It was only after Ah Yi had turned a blind eye for so long that she came to him. "Okay, then let him rest for a few days. When he's better, I'll go to the Yangxin Palace to talk to him."
"Don't worry, Grandfather. The Emperor won't be staying in the Yangxin Palace for long."
Seeing that he was so confident, Shangguan Mochen thought that it would not be long before Rui'an would be able to enter the palace freely.
"Okay, okay, grandpa will be waiting for your good news." Shangguan Mochen suddenly stood up, remembering something. It was getting late, and we had to go back to the Imperial West Garden. Yun Shu was coming to dinner tonight..."
It was late at night and the moon was bright in the sky.
"Your Majesty, it's late, it's time to go to bed." Aunt Yun brought the calming soup and lit the calming incense.
Empress Dowager Du felt much more at peace today as she chanted Buddhist scriptures in the small Buddhist temple. Now, smelling the calming incense, she felt extremely relaxed.
What is she afraid of?
He has been praying to her sincerely, so she should know what is good for her and won't come to him again.
He drank the calming soup and lay down.
Yun Gu's eyelids became heavier and heavier, and she only went to rest after Empress Dowager Du fell asleep.
Less than half an hour after Yun Gu left, the person on the phoenix couch showed fear on his face, grasping at the air with his hands, and opening his mouth to call for help but no sound came out.
On the other side, Feng Yanzhi drank the calming soup and tossed and turned in bed. Every time he closed his eyes, he would think of Shangguan Ruian. His mind was full of thoughts and he couldn't fall asleep.
Li Haiying frowned. Why didn’t this tranquilizing soup work?
He hurriedly ordered the eunuchs below, "Go and invite Yang Sheng over."
The young eunuch turned and left, then quickly returned: "The Empress seemed to have mentioned that she wanted to light some calming incense."
Li Haiying slapped his forehead. How could he have forgotten such an important thing?!
Li Haiying lit some calming incense, and in less than half a cup of tea, Feng Yan's aura stabilized.
"Go away, I'm sleepy."
The next day, Li Haiying found that he had overslept again. He had a bad feeling and hurried to the bedroom.
I was shocked by the scene in the room!
Feng Yanzhi's face was covered with scratches, even more horrible than yesterday, and the gauze had already been torn into pieces and scattered on the ground.
"The Emperor—wake up quickly..."
A quarter of an hour later, Feng Yanzhi looked at himself in the mirror, and his eyes went dark and he fainted again.
"Ah!" Li Haiying screamed in fright.
Why did the Emperor faint? Shangguan Mochen hasn't arrived yet!
