Inner Temple.
Yan Zhuoxu listened to Shufeng's report, pressed his thumb, and the Buddhist beads made a muffled "click" sound.
He suddenly raised his eyes.
"You said Ye Jinghong will also go up the mountain?"
"That's right." Shu Feng bowed and said, "Shen Qingyan ignored the obstruction and insisted on going up the mountain before the road was even firm and stable, saying that she came to bring her concubine sister home."
"Ye Jinghong and Shen Qingyan have been getting close these past few days. He must have followed the Ye family's instructions and, under the pretext of praying for blessings, stayed by Shen Qingyan's side and had more contact with her."
"I feel that he has his own thoughts."
After saying this, he looked at Yan Zhuoxu's gloomy face and suddenly stopped talking.
"Speak." Yan Zhuoxu's expression was cold and sharp.
"Yes!" Shu Feng lowered his head quickly. "According to my subordinates, Ye Jinghong has been giving Shen Qingyan the cold shoulder many times, and has even been avoiding her everywhere these past few days."
"But as soon as I heard she was coming to Duanyun Temple, I became so excited. Isn't that strange?"
"It must be because the Second Young Lady is here that he is so impatient."
Yan Zhuoxu sat there like a statue.
No words were spoken for a long time.
Shufeng felt that the air around him had become a few feet colder and he shivered unconsciously.
He dared not say a word.
He secretly glanced at Yan Zhuoxu.
He was wrapped in a yellow cassock, but what he saw was not mercy, but an oppressive murderous intent and hostility.
Like a hellish Shura...
The Buddhist beads are twisted slowly.
Yan Zhuoxu couldn't help but think about it over and over again.
When she wakes up one day, she will forget everything they did last night.
Forgot he had kissed her.
My heart and eyes are filled with only Ye Jinghong.
The lovesickness that could not be relieved even by drunkenness was about to appear before her.
Could it be... that her sincerity is truly effective?
Yan Zhuoxu's heart sank.
The finger bones suddenly tightened.
Click——
He actually crushed a few of the Buddhist beads into pieces.
The remaining beads rolled down, making a sudden sound in the empty hall.
Shuofeng's pupils trembled.
What's wrong with you, Your Highness? Why are you so angry?
Even the Buddhist beads that I always valued the most were crushed...
A few beads rolled to Yan Zhuoxu's feet.
But he didn't even look at it.
Look up and gaze quietly at the silent Buddha statue.
For the first time, he felt a disrespect bordering on resentment toward the gods he revered and believed in.
Why should her wish be fulfilled?
Why not look at his?
Why…why?
The Buddha statue sitting on the lotus pedestal lowered its eyes and remained silent, and the incense ash fell.
He seemed to hear a distant Buddhist sound, ringing in his ears in a hollow and ethereal manner.
It's clear.
"Rebels and rebels will lose their own protection."
Yan Zhuoxu suddenly loosened his tightly clenched hands, his knuckles flexed, and his body dropped to his sides. His tall body trembled slightly due to the repression.
Yes, he has renounced Buddha.
How can we talk about protection?
A surge of hostility surged out of his eyes, and his expression was cold and hard, almost resolute.
That being the case.
He then fought and snatched it all by himself!
"Your Highness?" Shufeng saw that he was not in good condition and called out worriedly.
Yan Zhuoxu turned his head and looked at him quietly.
"Go to the palace and get something for me."
…
The Imperial Palace, the residence of the Queen Mother.
The Queen was so excited that she gripped the handle of her chair, "What did you say?!"
"Xu'er wants a set of women's clothing?!"
She recovered herself, turned around, and bowed to the Queen Mother at the top of the table to apologize: "I have been disrespectful, and I beg your forgiveness, Mother."
The Queen Mother laughed so hard that her mouth couldn't close.
"Oh, not to mention you, I was also shocked."
"Hurry up and sit down." She waved her hand and said to the eunuch who reported the news, "Tell me in detail, whose daughter is this?"
