After he finished speaking, the halo above his head instantly disappeared.
"Look! These flowers!"
Someone exclaimed, and they all looked over.
As the Buddha's light disappeared, those abnormal Weituo flowers also withered and died instantly.
Ji Changying looked strange.
Not only did the Weituo flower bloom in broad daylight, but it also suddenly withered and died?
Is this reasonable?!
This scene made everyone look uneasy: "Master! What exactly did you mean by that just now? What disaster? What about the suffering of all living beings?"
Huiji had been looking in one direction. Upon hearing this, he shook his head and sighed, "It's unspeakable. It's unspeakable."
The more he spoke like this, the more excited the crowd became. They wanted to know what was going on, and a group of people stood on tiptoe to look in the direction he was looking.
At this moment, a group of warrior monks ran over with serious faces and stood in front of Huiji: "Master! The prince of Yongle Earl's Mansion has suddenly...suddenly died in his dormitory!"
"What?! Prince Yongle died suddenly?"
This news was like a bomb, and it immediately exploded in the entire Huangjue Temple.
Huiji exclaimed in astonishment: "It's already..."
He swallowed the rest of his words, then ordered the monks in a serious manner to quickly escort the pilgrims down the mountain.
Zheng Xiangyi's face was filled with bitterness: "I haven't even gone to burn incense yet! I thought I was going to be lucky today, but I didn't expect it to be so unlucky!"
Wang Kunyao said solemnly, "This matter is of great importance. We must not act recklessly. Let's follow the crowd and get down the mountain quickly."
Just as they were about to leave, they discovered that the Ji family's brother and sister were squatting on the ground... playing with mud?
I saw two people pulling out several Weituo flowers and playing with the mud at the roots of the flowers with their hands...
The serious expression on Wang Kunyao's face cracked for a moment. After calming himself down, he quickly stepped forward to pull Ji Minghao: "Brother Ji, this is not the time to play around. We need to get down the mountain quickly."
Ji Changying grabbed a dead Weituo flower and without saying anything, followed the force Zheng Xiangyi was pulling her up.
When they hurried to the mountain gate, they found that the gate of Huangjue Temple was closed. Two rows of black-feathered guards were standing in front of the gate, preventing anyone from going down the mountain.
Master Huiji, along with a group of pilgrims and monks, stood before the Black Feather Guards and said, "Amitabha, please release these pilgrims and allow them to leave the mountain as soon as possible."
Chuan Qiong snorted coldly, "The Yongle Earl's son suddenly died here. My master is taking people to the scene right now. None of you can leave until the results are out! Who knows if there's a murderer among them?"
Master Huiji said "Amitabha" again, then looked at Chuanqiong and said, "My Lord, I don't want to say much about your case, but these donors have been in the side courtyard and have not left the dormitory. I wonder if you can let them go down the mountain first?"
Huiji pointed at the pilgrims who were in the side courtyard behind him and asked in a gentle voice.
Many of the pilgrims looked at Master Huiji with gratitude, but they did not expect Chuanqiong to say with a cold expression, "Not even one!"
Someone immediately became angry: "My old lady is the biological mother of Princess Xuan! A third-rank lady! How dare you stop me?!"
The maid who had spoken just now was supporting an old lady and standing in the crowd, scolding angrily.
"That's right! My master is the Shangshu Youcheng, a fourth-rank official!"
····
"I'm the prince of Chengguo. I don't care who's trying to stop us! Let us out!"
The Prince of Chengguo stood in front of the crowd and stared at Chuanqiong.
If the person standing here was Xie Siheng, he might have been polite, but the person in front of him was just a deputy and was not worthy of being treated with courtesy.
Chuan Qiong thrust his scabbard into the ground and said, "I said, no one can do this!"
"you--"
"Prince Jiang, there's no need to be angry. I think these people are just following orders. Why bother making things difficult for them? Why don't I go with you to find Master Xie?"
The Prince of Chengguo turned his head and saw that it was Cui Lingze, the legitimate son of the Prince of Cuiguo.
Jiang Bowen had to give the Cui family face, so he softened his expression and said, "My dear nephew, you don't know, these dogs are always so arrogant! Now they dare to lock us all up here without permission. They have absolutely no respect for the law!"
Cui Lingze frowned when he heard this. Since the other party dared to do this and his attitude was so tough, he must have something to rely on. The Prince of Chengguo didn't think about how to solve the problem, but was still putting on airs here.
"I'm going to take my men down the mountain today. Let's see what you dare to do!"
Prince Chengguo was about to move forward regardless of anything, and his followers hurried to protect him. However, just as he took two steps, a sword was placed on his neck.
"Let me give you a piece of advice. My sword has no eyes. If someone insists on crashing into it, even if someone is held responsible in the future, it won't be anyone else's fault."
Chuan Qiong glanced at the Prince of Chengguo, his tone full of warning.
"This is the prince of the Duke's Mansion, and the Black Feather Guards don't even take him seriously..."
"It's not okay for the Duke's Prince to be here, let's just forget it..."
Listening to the murmurs in the crowd, the Prince of Chengguo felt ashamed and pointed at Chuanqiong with a trembling finger: "This is a rebellion! I think this is really a rebellion!"
"Master... I think we should just forget it..."
The Crown Prince's wife also felt humiliated, but looking at the cold light on the Chuanqiong Sword, she was still a little frightened.
Zheng Xiangyi shook his head and sighed, "I think the Chengguo Mansion is doomed."
Wang Kunyao's expression changed: "Cousin, be careful with your words!"
Zheng Xiangyi curled her lips. She was not wrong.
The Chengguo Mansion is already in the spotlight, and this prince is so incompetent, won't it be the end sooner or later?
Seeing that the Prince of Chengguo was about to die and his followers were fighting with the Black Feather Guards, Ji Minghao sighed and said to Ji Changying with some worry: "I didn't expect something like this to happen today. I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to go home. I don't know if my aunt and mother will be worried."
Ji Changying glanced at Dasha who was following him and said in a low voice, "It's okay, I have a way."
Ji Minghao's eyes lit up and he was about to ask what the solution was?
Just as the Prince of Chengguo was about to order his men to take action, the crowd parted.
Master Huiji invited Xie Siheng over at some point.
"Chuan Qiong, stop."
Xie Siheng walked to the front of the mountain gate, glanced at the crowd and waved his hand to let the Black Feather Guards stop.
Chuan Qiong snorted and then put down the sword from the neck of Prince Chengguo.
"It's impossible to release people. I advise you all to give up on this idea. Instead of wasting time, you might as well ask Master Huiji if he has a room for you."
Xie Siheng looked around and was obviously stunned when he saw Ji Changying.
I didn't expect her to be here.
The Prince of Chengguo looked at him angrily: "You said you wouldn't let us go, so you won't let us go. Can Lord Xie really cover up everything?"
Xie Siheng's eyes moved to him: "Before the palace banquet, you Chengguo Mansion jumped up and down because Concubine Jiang made some moves at the palace banquet. Now you are jumping up and down here again. Could it be that the Yongle Earl's son..."
“Nonsense!”
The Prince of Chengguo's face changed drastically, and he interrupted Xie Siheng in a harsh tone.
