âHuh? Then what are we going to do?â the little bun whispered.
Feng Yili replied in a low voice, âIâm bringing you to see a friend of mine.â
âSo you have friends too, Father,â the little bun said with a sigh as he held his chin. At the same time, he thought to himself, âEven someone as fierce as Father has friendsâ¦
Feng Yili looked at the little bun as though he could read the little bunâs mind and said, âFrom now on, let Luo Xiuran teach you martial arts.â
The little bun: !!!
âNo,â the little bun refused decisively. He could accept anything, but he could not accept Luo Xiuran teaching him martial arts. He said, aggrieved, âFather, I know I was wrong. I wonât say anything bad about you anymore. Can you bear to leave me to Uncle Xiuran? My martial arts will definitely fall back if I learn from him!â
Feng Yili only carried the little bun and said, âLetâs go.â
Feng Yili brought the little bun to the backyard. To be precise, he brought the little bun to the most remote meditation room. The outside of the room was empty, but it was clean and tidy.
âAn old friend is here to see you,â Feng Yili said lightly.
Following that, an old but sonorous voice rang from inside the room.
âCome in.â
Feng Yili held the little bunâs hand and walked in.
An old monk sat in the room. His gaze was indifferent, and compared to Abbot Liao Chen, his temperament was even more extraordinary. He was none other than Master Shen Zhi.
Master Shen Zhi looked at Feng Yili and asked disdainfully, âWhatâs the matter? Did you come to see if Iâm dead?â
The little bunâs mouth widened in shock. He did not expect that the old monk, who was a respected master, to be so sarcastic.
Master Shen Zhi looked at the little bun and saw through the little bunâs thoughts immediately. He said, âWhy, little one, do you think monks are immortals? Do you think Iâm sarcastic just like people in the secular world?â
The little bun scratched his head awkwardly. After all, that was exactly what he had thought.
âThere are thousands of Buddhists in the world, and everyone is different. A kind-looking monk might not be a good person,â Master Shen Zhi said lightly before he waved his hand and continued to say, âForget it. Itâs useless to tell you about these things.â
Then, Master Shen Zhi looked at Feng Yili and said calmly, âI knew youâd come, but I didnât expect you to come so soon.â
âYou saved my life back then. Now that Iâm in Xichu, I naturally have to visit you,â Feng Yili said slowly.
Many years ago, when Feng Yili was using the identity of the grandson of the former King of Youshan, he was plotted against. At that time, it was Master Shen Zhi who saved his life.
âDid you come to visit me, or did you accompany someone else here?â Master Shen Zhi asked. He looked at Feng Yili as though he could see through Feng Yili.
Feng Yili remained calm. He knew the old man was very capable and knew everything. It was not surprising that the old man knew about Yu Yunxi. âThat girlâs fate is amazing,â Master Shen Zhi suddenly said in a nonchalant tone.
With this, a hint of emotions could finally be seen in Feng Yiliâs eyes. He stared at the other party, hoping to hear more about Yu Yunxi.
Master Shen Zhi scoffed and said, âI canât reveal heavenâs secrets to you. All you need to know is that the two of you are a match made in heaven.â
âEach of them is tougher than the other. If they were with someone else, they would jinx the others to death⦠Hence, itâs best for them to be with each otherâ¦â
Meanwhile, Feng Yili nodded in agreement.
Upon seeing this, Master Shen Zhi looked at Feng Yili strangely and asked, âWait. Youâve never believed in things such as fate. Why are you agreeing now?â Feng Yili said righteously, âWell, you said that my Princess Consort and I are a match made in heaven. I naturally agree. It must be true.â
âYouâ¦â
Master Shen Zhi was annoyed.
âThis shameless person!â
When Master Shen Zhi calmed down, he asked, âHave you found Qi Ye yet?â
âHeâs your enemy. Why havenât you found him after so long?â Master Shen Zhi asked angrily.
Feng Yili retorted in a nonchalant tone, âHe betrayed your senior brother. You claim to know everything so why canât you divine his location?â
Master Shen Zhi:
âThis kidâs words are really vicious! Each of his words pokes peopleâs hearts! How unpleasant!â Master Shen Zhi thought to himself as he said impatiently,
âAlright, what do you want?â
âNothing. I just wanted to visit you. Now that Iâve seen you, Iâll take my leave.â After Feng Yili finished speaking, he carried the little bun and strode out.
Master Shen Zhi: .
âIs this brat going to leave just like that?â
When Master Shen Zhi saw Feng Yili stop in his tracks, his eyes lit up.
In the next moment, Feng Yili said coldly, âEven if I have to dig three feet underground, Iâll dig Qi Ye out. Not only is he a traitor to your sect, but he also tried to murder my Princess Consort.â
Master Shen Zhi:
âI know, I know. Itâs secondary that heâs a traitor to my sect. The main point is that he tried to hurt your Princess Consort!â
After leaving the room, the little bun raised his head and whispered, âFather, will our family of three always be together?â
âWe wonât,â Feng Yili said firmly.
âHuh?â
âIâll always be with your mother. As for you.. â Feng Yili said, trailing off.
The little bun: .
âFather is really ruthlessâ¦â
After kneeling for a long time, the pampered noble ladies could no longer endure it anymore.
Due to Consort Hongâs weak body, her maidservants had already helped her up earlier.
Consort Mu gnashed her teeth so hard that they were about to break. The sunlight burned hot on her skin. If this ruined her skin, how was she going to compete for favor? She felt very regretful now. If she had known earlier, she would not have come to pray for blessings.
The Empress Dowagers and the others were not in any better condition. They were very pale, and they were on the verge of collapse. However, there were many people watching. If they did not grit their teeth and persevere, they would embarrass the imperial family.
Among so many people, only Yu Yunxi and Abbot Liao Chen were the calmest.
Abbot Liao Chen, who had long been used to this, did not expect Yu Yunxi to be so calm.
Yu Yunxi kneeled with her hands placed on her knees. Her head was lowered so her dark hair covered her face. In all appearances, she looked as though she was praying sincerely.
Meng Xia and Qian Qing, who were watching from afar, exchanged a look with strange expressions on their faces.
âI have a feeling the Eldest Princess has fallen asleep..
Indeed, Yu Yunxi had long since fallen asleep. After all, she was really tired.
Finally, when everyone felt like they were going to collapse, Abbot Liao Chen said, âItâs time. Everyone, you can get up.â
Many people heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
âThe temple has prepared a vegetarian meal for everyone. When youâve rested, you can eat,â Abbot Liao Chen said..
