Chapter 152 Return to the Palace

The old abbot chanted a Buddhist name, "Amitabha, this person is the poor monk's young disciple. He heard that the poor monk was going to the palace, so he insisted on following to protect the poor monk's safety. He has a strange temper and doesn't like to talk. Please forgive him, Your Majesty."

Ling Fengxun looked up and down at the black-robed man, and raised his thin lips slightly.

"Why is this person wearing a black robe?"

The old abbot sighed softly.

"Because Huixin has had a strange disease since childhood, his body is pale and afraid of light. Otherwise, he would not have been abandoned by the people in the nearby village as a monster."

Ling Fengxun listened to the old abbot's explanation, but he did not doubt his words.

Although his words that monks do not tell lies may not be true, but in this case, he really has no need to lie.

Ling Fengxun did not ask any more questions, but was always on guard against the man in black robe.

Even Yingfeng and the other two together were no match for this man in black robe. It was conceivable that the other party

was unfathomable. No wonder the old monk was so confident.

"It's getting late, let's go back to the palace."

"Yes, Your Highness!"

A group of subordinates immediately packed up everything they had brought with them, checked the number of people, and pulled the prepared carriage over.

An Yunxi glanced at the man in black robe, muttering the name Huixin and frowning slightly.

She seemed to have seen the other party's figure, but because the memory was too vague and long-lasting, An Yunxi could not remember it for a while.

Ling Fengxun took An Yunxi to the front carriage.

The queen mother sat in the back one.

As for Chu Wanran, she was arranged to sit in the carriage where the maids and nannies sat, squeezed together with some other palace maids.

She still had wounds on her face, and was a little breathless from being squeezed. Seeing that many people around her were secretly looking at her, she said angrily: "Look at what I am doing, or I will dig out your eyes!"

Those who were timid immediately lowered their heads and dared not look over again.

Chu Wanran was squeezed so hard that she pushed a nanny next to her angrily. As a result, the nanny suddenly snorted and said: "Miss Chu, the reason why the Queen Mother suddenly became seriously ill and fell into danger is because of you."

Chu Wanran's face turned pale instantly.

She looked at the nanny who was speaking in disbelief, and found that the others also raised their heads curiously at this time.

All eyes were focused on her face in an instant, making Chu Wanran pale.

Madam Liu's voice was so cold that she shuddered.

"Tell me, if I report this to the Queen Mother, what will happen to you, the young lady?"

Chu Wanran tensed up when she heard this, and a look of fear appeared on her face.

Madam Liu snorted when she saw that she was completely obedient.

"I didn't say it because the prince didn't mention it. Otherwise, you would have been tied up and escorted back to the capital, and you wouldn't even be able to sit in this carriage."

This Madam Liu said the truth, which made Chu Wanran pale. Her heart beat very fast, and she was intertwined with anger and fear, because she had never thought that she would be threatened by a servant.

Madam Liu was not easy to deal with. She was always good at kicking a fallen dog.

With a little fat body, she squeezed Chu Wanran into a corner, and she couldn't even move.

Being bullied, Chu Wanran didn't dare to say anything, and could only lean against the corner with red eyes and cry.

She was still thinking about how to make these servants look bad after she helped Ling Fengxun to get rid of the snake

. Nothing happened along the way.

Just after noon, Ling Fengxun returned to the palace with the queen mother.

This trip to Liangshan Temple, An Yunxi also understood part of the truth of what happened that year.

The old abbot took Huijing and Huixin out of the carriage and took a look at the huge and magnificent palace in front of them. There was a little more strange color in his slightly cloudy and old eyes.

Ling Fengxun walked to the gate of the palace, "Abbot, please."

The old abbot said, "If I accidentally offend the emperor during this visit, I'm afraid I'll lose my life. Please, Your Highness, save the lives of these two people for the sake of my dedication."

Ling Fengxun nodded slightly.

"Of course."

With Ling Fengxun's guarantee, the old abbot stepped in. The towering palace walls divided the inside and outside into two worlds. Countless guards in front of the palace gates knelt on the ground and saluted Ling Fengxun and the Queen Mother and others.

An Yunxi followed the Queen Mother. Ling Fengxun was going to take the old imperial teacher to see the emperor directly, so she couldn't follow. The Queen Mother

patted her arm and said, "Don't worry, let's go to my palace first."

"Okay."

An Yunxi responded immediately.

The Queen Mother suddenly said to Huijing and Huixin who were standing by and had no idea where to go, "You two little masters, come with me."

A nanny beside her said in a low voice, "Queen Mother, these two are really dangerous." The

Queen Mother smiled and waved her hand and said, "The palace is heavily guarded, no one will dare to assassinate me."

"But last night..."

The Queen Mother was very enthusiastic about the monks of Liangshan Temple. She waved her hand to the nanny beside her to stop the other party from continuing to persuade her.

"Two young masters, follow me."

"Yes."

Hui Jing responded quickly. He also knew that the Queen Mother was kind. If he and Hui Xin stayed with the Queen Mother, they would be much safer.

It was not that he would be much safer.

An Yunxi also asked someone to bring Chu Wanran, who was hiding in the corner and trying to make herself invisible, over.

The Queen Mother also noticed her at this time. Seeing her look so fierce, she was a little surprised.

"Wanran, what's wrong with you?"

Chu Wanran saw the Queen Mother looking at her, pouted her lips, and wanted to complain.

After all, the Queen Mother had been good to her for so many years because of Ling Fengxun. If she was wronged, the Queen Mother would definitely help her.

But when she raised her head, she saw An Yunxi looking at her with a half-smile, which made her hide all her thoughts immediately.

"Wanran is fine, she just accidentally fell down during the chaos last night."

The Queen Mother sighed and said with a distressed look: "How could she be so careless and her face was swollen."

Chu Wanran: "

Did she fall? She was beaten up!

" An Yunxi couldn't help but smile: "Don't worry, Queen Mother, let her go to my place later, I will have someone apply medicine to her."

Chu Wanran subconsciously opened her mouth to refuse, but seeing An Yunxi's cold eyes, she nodded quickly: "Thank you very much, Miss An."

She stammered and finished her words of thanks.

The Queen Mother had already led a group of people into the Cining Palace and invited Huijing and Huixin to enter the main hall together.

"Both of you please take a seat and have some tea."

The people in the palace were very discerning and poured the tea that had been prepared long ago for everyone.

The man wrapped tightly in a black robe saw the tea in his hand, slowly stretched out a pale-looking hand, grabbed the teacup, and then carefully lifted a little of the black hood on his face.

An Yunxi looked over curiously.
