After Xiao Cunyu finished speaking, the head of Qingfeng Monastery nodded and said, "Indeed, if the emperor still wants to punish you after learning about the flood, that would be a bit unreasonable. My cultivation skills are far inferior to yours, but I have many fellow practitioners. I will send a message to them later. You are talking about a major event. Even if they don't know you, they are willing to do it for the sake of the people."
Xiao Cunyu has already taken the consequences of leaking the secret, so how can this group of people be cowards?
"That's good. I'll wait for your news. Let's make an appointment and go down the mountain to see the old emperor..." Xiao Cunyu said casually, then coughed, "I heard that the emperor is ill and the prince is the regent. Even if this is mysterious, I believe the prince will listen to it."
Not long after Xiao Cunyu finished saying this, a Taoist boy came over and told him that the prince had arrived.
Xiao Cunyu also knew that recently, there was always someone hiding near her yard, staring at her from time to time, and he had no bad intentions.
She figured that the incident with the fake prince-in-law must have caught the prince's attention, so he wanted to investigate her. Although she felt uncomfortable being stared at, she owed the prince a favor, so she pretended not to see it.
This time, she went out wearing women's clothes, and the prince must have known about it, but he didn't expect that this person would come in person.
Moreover, the prince arrived rather quickly. He probably rushed here as soon as he heard the news.
"Do you want to hide away?" asked the master of Qingfeng Temple.
Xiao Cunyu shook his head. "I guess he came to see me. I owe him a favor, and I deceived him about his identity. I feel guilty. If I run away now, I will be betraying the little friendship between me and the Crown Prince. Besides, this act of deceiving the emperor was most likely done by him, so I should have informed him in advance."
The master of Qingfeng Temple didn't say much.
After a while, Ying Huaiji rushed over.
He was wearing a purple robe with cloud patterns and a jade crown on his head. Under his sword-like eyebrows were slightly heavy and cold eyes. He rushed into the palace door and as soon as he came in, he saw Xiao Cunyu next to the master of Qingfeng Temple.
He looked over, was stunned for a moment, his pupils shrank slightly, and he felt as if his heart was struck by lightning.
I have also seen Xiao Cunyu wearing women's clothes. However, at that time she was carefree and her every move was like a man. Even if she changed her appearance, people would still think she was just a young man.
But Xiao Cunyu was a little different at this time.
She is like the glow under the clouds, like a faint light in the world of mortals, quiet and beautiful, dignified and quiet. The dress she wears makes her look like a fairy from the world, so beautiful and otherworldly.
Ying Huaiji's steps became heavier and slower. The closer he got, the more he doubted himself and the more ridiculous he felt...
He stared at Xiao Cunyu intently, as if there was no one else here. The Qingfeng Monastery Master was also a sharp man. He took a look and said, "I will go write the letter first. You two can chat first."
After saying that, the master of Qingfeng Temple left.
Feeling guilty, Xiao Cunyu felt his heart beating violently.
"You..." Ying Huaiji clenched his pale hands tightly, pretending to be calm with only a hint of suspicion on his face. He said in a daze, "Who asked you to pretend to be my mother again?"
Even though I asked this question, I had a feeling that Xiao Cunyu would shake his head and deny it.
Sure enough, the next moment, Xiao Cunyu shook his head and said, "I'm just like this. In the past, I treated myself as a rough man for convenience, but didn't I get into trouble? I also know that you are the prince and the king. What I did was not right, but no one asked me whether I was a man or a woman before... This marriage was forced on me..."
