"Monks' Fasting Festival?" Ye Xingchen looked over.
“Bao’en Temple is the national temple designated by Cangyue State for royal sacrifices. Every year, Bao’en Temple holds a grand monk fasting festival.
The monks in the temple will chant sutras and pray for everyone for free, and there will be free vegetarian meals. People can go to listen to Buddhist discussions or ask for divination.
On weekdays, only a few eminent monks interpret the fortunes, but during the Monks’ Fasting Festival, all the eminent monks come out and the scene is very grand, so many people go there to admire the event." Cang Boyi explained.
Ye Xingchen's face turned cold instantly, and she said why did Sengzhai Festival sound familiar?
【Isn't that where I lost my innocence? 】
Cang Boyi was completely shocked and looked at Ye Xingchen in disbelief.
She lost her virginity, why would she say that? Did the monk do something during the fast?
What did she know? Who plotted against her?
He wanted to ask, but was afraid of scaring Ye Xingchen, and suddenly regretted the suggestion.
Which bastard plotted against her? If I knew, I would tear his tendons, skin him, and cut him into pieces.
Ye Xingchen did not notice Cang Boyi's reaction and was recalling the contents of the storybook.
Prince Mo said that he would take the original owner Ye Xingchen to the Monks' Fast Festival to worship Buddha. The original owner was very excited and went there without any precautions. Then she consummated her marriage with "Prince Mo" in Bao'en Temple.
Later, the original owner became pregnant and was very grateful to Baoen Temple. She donated a lot of incense money to the temple every year.
But the original owner never thought that all this was the plan of King Mo and Fu Yurou.
Fu Yurou bribed the nanny beside the original owner to put drugs in Ye Xingchen's tea. The person who slept with Ye Xingchen that night was not King Mo, but a random beggar.
Therefore, the child that the original owner was pregnant with was not King Mo's, and in the end, this child became King Mo's tool to deal with Ye Xingchen.
Cang Boyi saw Ye Xingchen's expression change and realized that something was wrong with her, but he couldn't hear her thoughts and was very worried.
"The Monk Fasting Festival is just some monks chanting sutras, which is actually quite boring. Why don't you just not go? I will take you to other interesting places."
Ye Xingchen came back to his senses: "Go, you must go."
[I want to see what other tricks King Mo and Fu Yurou can use. ]
Cang Boyi frowned. It turned out to be Prince Mo and Fu Yurou. Although he didn't hear the details, he would never let Prince Mo go.
Looking at Ye Xingchen who had a calm expression, Cang Boyi's deep eyes were filled with heartache.
"You must have had a hard time these years." Cang Boyi said subconsciously.
“It’s true that it wasn’t easy, but it’s all over. I’m out of the sea of suffering now, and things will only get better and better in the future.” Ye Xingchen said nonchalantly.
"Yes, it's getting better and better." Cang Boyi agreed.
He will protect her from now on.
The carriage stopped at the gate of Ye Mansion and Ye Xingchen got off the carriage.
"In a few days, you will go to the Monks' Fasting Festival with me." Cang Boyi said.
"Okay, thank you Regent for sending me back today." Ye Xingchen thanked him and watched Cang Boyi's carriage leave before going home.
"The young lady is back!" the servant at the door shouted.
All the Ye family members came out one after another. Mother Ye asked worriedly, "Xingchen, you are finally back. Did Concubine Xuan make things difficult for you? Did they bully you?"
"Is Prince Mo trying to make things difficult for you?" Ye's father asked with concern.
"Dad, Mom, and brothers, don't worry. I'm fine. I'm back safe and sound." Ye Xingchen said a few simple words.
Everyone was relieved and just as they were about to say a few words of concern, the housekeeper came in from outside: "Master, Madam is in trouble. Something happened to the granary that the Ye family is looking after."
Father Ye was shocked: "What happened?"
"Today I went on my usual inspection and found some scattered grain on the ground. I was afraid it might have attracted rats, so I opened the granary to have a look.
It turned out that all the grain in more than a dozen large granaries was empty. What should the master do? The grain delivery day will come in half a month. "The housekeeper looked anxious.
Ye's mother was also extremely shocked: "How could this happen? There are people taking turns to guard the granaries every day, and each granary is so big, how could so much food disappear without a sound?"
"There must be a traitor. I will take people to capture the guards right away." Ye Xiaosha said angrily.
Boss Ye frowned: "Even if you go to catch them now, no one will admit it. The key is where did all the food go?"
"Damn it, it must be King Mo who stole the food." Ye Lao Er agreed.
"With so much food, it would take time to move it all out. It must have been planned in advance," Ye Lao San analyzed.
"Does anyone else know that there is less food in the granary?" Ye Xingchen asked.
The housekeeper wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "No, it was a patrol shift change at that time. When I saw the granary was empty, I was scared to death and didn't dare to say anything."
"It will be easy now that we haven't alerted the enemy. Big brother, you should contact other shops outside the capital immediately and ask them to buy grain from various places quickly. In case we really can't find it, we can make up for it. I'll go check it out myself in the evening." Ye Xingchen suggested.
"Why at night? Can't we go now?" Ye Xiaosha asked puzzledly.
"If we go now, wouldn't it be telling the person behind us that we know the food is gone? Then how can he reveal his true identity?" Ye Xingchen explained.
"My sister is right. I'll go right away." The eldest and second eldest brother Ye went to do it immediately.
Ye Xiaosha couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "Why do I feel that you have become smarter after the divorce?"
"None of your business." Ye Xingchen was too lazy to pay attention to him.
"These are all public grain. If we can't hand them over when the time comes, it will be a capital crime. King Mo is not going to give our Ye family a way to survive. He is so vicious." Ye's father said angrily.
It goes without saying that this must have been the work of King Mo. No one else wanted to kill the Ye family so much.
"We didn't settle accounts with them, but they actually harmed our Ye family first. How despicable. Fortunately, Xingchen divorced him, otherwise she would have been schemed against by him and nothing would have been left." Ye's mother said angrily.
"Don't worry, Dad and Mom. I have my own way. I will make him spit it out the same way he took it away." Ye Xingchen comforted.
Ye's mother was very pleased when she saw the woman's confident and resolute look. She always felt that her daughter had not only become wiser but also more capable after waking up, which really made her feel more at ease.
"Okay, let's listen to our daughter."
At midnight, Ye Xingchen changed into night clothes and was about to climb over the wall to go out, but Ye Xiaosha stopped her: "I'll go with you."
"Are you sure you don't want to be scared when the time comes?" Ye Xingchen raised his eyebrows.
"Tsk, I'm a very brave young man, I was just scared." Ye Xiaosha said arrogantly.
"Okay, lead the way." The two men headed straight for the granary in the eastern suburbs.
The man guarding the granary was drowsy, and there were many wet footprints on the ground. Those footprints looked like someone was walking. She saw the footprints going in and out, but no one.
Ye Xiaosha's face turned pale immediately: "Sister, there are only footprints but no people. Are we encountering ghosts?"
