Daxia Kingdom, Guanyin Temple
"Madam, you have been kneeling for a long time."
"My lady, it's time to go back. It will be hard to travel any later."
…
Bei Lingyao felt her body being gently pushed and opened her eyes to face a golden statue of Guanyin.
[Ding! Host, please receive the memory.]
"Wife"
Bei Lingyao looked at the round-faced little maid beside her, who looked about twelve or thirteen years old and was looking at her anxiously.
"I'll kneel for a while longer."
Bei Lingyao shook her head slightly. She had just received the memory, but she knew that it would be dangerous to go down the mountain now.
Now it is safe in Guanyin Temple.
Guanyin Temple is one of the most popular temples for praying for children in the Great Xia Kingdom.
Today, not only did the original owner come, but the Emperor Jiahe of the Great Xia Kingdom also came secretly to pray for a child.
After the original owner came down the mountain, he was abducted into a bandit's den. He was afraid of being humiliated and committed suicide by hitting his head against the wall.
When Emperor Jiahe learned that bandits had abducted decent women at the foot of the mountain, he sent guards to rescue them.
But the guard was a step too late and the original owner was already dead.
The original owner was the daughter of the largest cloth merchant in Jiangnan.
Because the Yong'an Earl's Mansion was short of money, they asked the second son, Young Master Lin San, to marry the original owner.
The original owner married into the Yong'an Earl's Mansion, a den of tigers and wolves, with a generous dowry. She was not liked by her husband, and was troubled everywhere and her dowry was schemed against her.
Young Master Lin San likes his eldest sister-in-law's biological sister, but the daughters of powerful families are used for marriage to maximize their benefits.
The eldest daughter of the Shi family has already married into the Yong'an Earl's Mansion as the Crown Prince's wife, so it is impossible to marry the youngest daughter to a brother of the same family.
Of course, the royal family is an exception.
There is only one way for Mr. Lin San to marry his sweetheart.
Kill his eldest brother and become the crown prince himself.
And the Third Master Lin did exactly that. It took him seven years to make his eldest brother, the Crown Prince, lie on the hospital bed with only one breath left.
Young Master Lin San divorced the original owner on the grounds that she had no children. He was just waiting for his brother to die so that he could marry his sweetheart and then take over the position of crown prince.
However, it was revealed by the original owner that the third son of Lin was not a legitimate son, but a concubine's son who was exchanged for a legitimate son.
The youngest daughter of the Shi family immediately entered the palace.
The eldest son of the Yong'an Earl's Mansion finally died. The Yong'an Earl's wife calculated the original owner's dowry. After the eldest son died, she found that the only two legitimate sons were replaced by concubines.
Unfortunately, the son born to the concubine was killed by the wife of the Earl of Yong'an a few years ago.
The wife of the Earl of Yong'an was devastated and wished she could kill the "legitimate son" she had raised.
But over the years, Lady Yong'an has done her utmost to suppress the illegitimate son. Although she values the eldest legitimate son, she also loves this 'second legitimate son'.
Young Master Lin San was unable to marry his sweetheart, and in order to maintain his status as the legitimate son and inherit the title, he proposed to marry the niece of Lady Yong'an.
Or the cousin he once hated the most.
Lady Yong'an agreed and said that as long as the "legitimate son" married her niece, she would help him to be named the crown prince.
The mother and son resumed their loving and filial relationship, and then united to deal with the original owner.
In their opinion, if the original owner had not revealed that the Third Master Lin was not the legitimate son, no one would have known this secret.
In order to secure her son's position as crown prince, Lin San's aunt did not dare to say it out loud.
The mother-son relationship between Lady Yong'an and Mr. Lin San will not be destroyed.
And the concubine of Mr. Lin San committed suicide for the sake of her son's future.
The only enemy left by Lady Yong'an and Young Master Lin San is the original owner.
They were the ones who arranged those bandits.
Bei Lingyao released her spiritual sense and indeed found the bandits hiding stealthily at the foot of the mountain.
[System, why didn't you find the emperor?]
In the previous world, she could project her spiritual consciousness and confirm the location of Emperor Shengwu when encountering obstacles.
But this is all hundreds of miles away and there is no obstruction.
Could it be that a fake emperor came to Guanyin Temple?
[It's the men's room next to yours.]
There are separate rooms for men and women when worshipping Guanyin, the Goddess of Childbirth. This is understandable considering the differences between men and women in ancient times.
Bei Lingyao's spiritual consciousness swept across the room next door dedicated to the Guanyin statue of fertility. A refined man in blue was kneeling on a cushion, bowing three times to the Guanyin statue, then he put his hands together, closed his eyes and prayed.
As pious as the original owner.
Outside the door, a man stood with his head down, waiting there quietly.
[Eh, is that the emperor? Why can my spiritual sense detect him? And why is there only one person guarding the emperor, even though he has secret guards around him?]
However, considering that Emperor Jiahe went on an incognito tour, it is understandable.
But once his whereabouts are exposed, Emperor Jiahe will be alone, which is very dangerous.
[This system has no spiritual consciousness, so I don’t know.]
[Then how do you sense your surroundings?]
【The system has a built-in scanning function. 】
Bei Lingyao didn't say anything else. The most important thing now was how to attract Emperor Jiahe and enter the palace smoothly.
The original owner's family was in Jiangnan, and had become the money bag of the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion over the years. They were also controlled by the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion and the local government.
After the original owner was divorced, she moved into the house she lived in when she got married. This was the Bei family's house, and now it is occupied by her cousin and his wife who took over the business in the capital.
But these two people have been bribed by the Yong'an Earl's Mansion, and they even plan to send the original owner to a high-ranking official as a concubine to maximize their benefits.
[The Emperor will be leaving soon, host, please find a solution quickly.]
Bei Lingyao suddenly had an idea. [System, use an exchange card.]
[Ding, the interchange card is being used.]
Bei Lingyao fell down.
At the same time, in the men's room, Emperor Jiahe also fell down after seeing black.
The guard outside came in immediately. Seeing Emperor Jiahe fainted, he was shocked and picked up the person and rushed out immediately.
"Ahem"
Bei Lingyao opened her eyes and said, "Put me down."
"I have offended you, Your Majesty, please forgive me."
