Chapter 193 Hidden Mission?

Seeing Si Linglong smiling as she carefully put away the banknotes and the jade pendant, Si Jinyu cleared his throat and said, "I don't have much banknotes with me when I go out. I'll have someone send you some later."

I guess it’s because the palace has high expenses. In the past... this sister didn’t care about money at all.

After all, there was never a shortage of money in the family.

Si Linglong had just received the banknote when she heard him say that he wanted to give her some money. She felt embarrassed and touched at the same time, "Brother, you are so nice!"

[No wonder people like having a second child. 】

[Hey, Brother Ba, why don’t you let me adopt a brother? 】

Si Linglong felt regretful inwardly, but Si Jinyu looked around. Although he could come and go freely in Huguo Temple, it was not appropriate for him to talk for too long with the women in the harem.

Finally, I said,

"Take good care of yourself in the palace. You don't need to worry about what's going on there for now. Father and I will take care of it."

Si Linglong blinked when she heard that.

[That place, where is it? ]

Although she was puzzled, Si Linglong showed no sign of it and nodded seriously, "I understand."

Don't mix things you don't know about. This is the basic professional quality of an imposter.

Anyway, her brother said so, so she doesn't need to care.

However, looking at Si Jinyu's back as he turned away leisurely, Si Linglong still couldn't avoid feeling tangled.

Judging from what eldest brother said at the end, it seems... the original owner's entry into the palace was not as simple as simply entering the palace.

If this also comes with a mission...

[It would be better if I were struck to death by thunder. ]

The system wants her to help the male and female protagonists complete the main plot, and Brother Ba wants her to go to Kunlun to find a chance to survive. She finally has a big brother, but there is a hidden mission?

[Haha, I don’t want to play anymore. Let the world be destroyed. ]

…

On the other side, after explaining things to Si Linglong, Si Jinyu went straight towards the mountain gate.

Although the Empress Dowager allowed him to stay in the Huguo Temple as a guest, the Emperor and his concubines were all in the temple at that time, so it was not appropriate for a foreigner like him to stay there for long.

He wanted to go back to his temple.

When the temple was first built and scriptures were offered, part of the reason was to be close to the Empress Dowager, but more importantly, his father and he built it to venerate the spirit of his deceased mother. The scroll of scriptures handwritten by Master Lingkong that was enshrined in front of his mother's hall was obtained by him and his father after great efforts.

Fortunately, everything was not in vain.

The Si family's carriage was parked in front of the mountain gate. When Si Jinyu walked towards the mountain gate, Prince Li and Prince Li's son Helian Tuo were walking along the mountain path in front. They glanced over here inadvertently, and the moment they saw Si Jinyu's profile, Prince Li suddenly stopped.

Helian Tuo looked at his father in confusion, "Father?"

Following the other person's gaze, I saw a figure getting into the carriage, but the figure looked unfamiliar.

Although Helian Tuo didn't recognize it, King Li paid attention to it and asked the guard beside him, "Whose carriage is that? Why can it enter the Huguo Temple?"

The guard at the side was in charge of guarding the mountain gate. He took one look and said, "Replying to Prince Li, that is the carriage of the eldest son of the Si family. The Queen Mother said that the young master Si is a person with a predestined relationship with Buddhism, so she allowed the young master Si to enter and leave the Huguo Temple and discuss sutras with the Grand Master Queen Mother."

"Si family?" Helian Tuo raised an eyebrow and asked, "Which Si family?"

"My Lord, it's the Huaishui River Si family in Lingnan."

Helian Tuo was startled when he heard this.

The Lingnan Si family... that doesn't belong to Concubine Lang Gui...

Helian Tuo looked at his father. The king obviously thought of Si Linglong. His concern just now disappeared. He just said, "The Si family does have some tricks."

He was just a businessman, but the empress dowager looked at him differently. No one would believe that this was a coincidence.

It seems that the rumor outside that the Si family sent their daughter to Gong Bo for a better future is indeed true.

Thinking of the man's profile when he had just caught a startled glimpse of him, the King simply shook his head and put it out of his mind.

But people are similar.

"Let's go."
