Chapter 399 - Hopelessness is the most scorching
Time passed through his fingers like air, and a month had passed since Murong Jiu received the Listening Rain Pavilion.
This month, things are changing so fast, there is all the news in the world, but there is no news of Dongfang Yi.
In order for Murong Jiu to be able to protect the fetus, Old Man Tianji and Murong Hao resolutely let Murong Jiu return to the border city to live temporarily.
Without the pursuit of Tingyu Pavilion, and the protection of the two peerless masters of Tianji Old Man and Night Death, there is nothing to worry about safety.
The most important thing is that the road to Eupong is closer and easier to walk than the Shadow Base in the Lethe Forest.
At the beginning of the day, in the Yishan Temple on the outskirts of Yicheng, Murong Jiu knelt in front of the statue of Rulai Buddha, holding three incense sticks in both hands and scattering smoke.
And Murong Jiu looked at each other quietly with indifferent eyes and the Buddha statue with a peaceful smile.
The Tianyao Imperial Court is now under the regent of Xuanyuan Rui, and Xuanyuan Mingzhe has been completely placed under house arrest.
Xuanyuan Rui himself has a high reputation in Tianyao, so there is not much opposition from the Manchu Dynasty to his regent.
Xuanyuan Mingzhe's lackey Wan Xingyang father and son were chased and killed by the tenth level of the photo studio, and they had already suffered a lot of vitality.
And because the matter of the martial arts conference is not allowed in the rivers and lakes, and now that he is being chased by Xuanyuan Rui's order, it can be said that he is more than a rat crossing the street to take care of himself, and he has no energy to pay attention to Xuanyuan Mingzhe anymore.
As for Xu Liji, the Venerable Lord of the Temple who had a cooperative relationship with him, he had already rushed back to Nanzhao half a month ago due to the turmoil in the court of Nanzhao.
Without foreign aid, Xuanyuan Mingzhe is worse than a dragon trapped in the shallows, and he will no longer be able to toss out any moths.
And even if he wanted to, Xuanyuan Rui wouldn't give him another chance.
As soon as it was reported that Bai Zhexiu had been detained for instructing the secret guards to assassinate other princes, Xu Liji rushed back to Nanzhao overnight, which also made Murong Jiu and others completely affirm the relationship between Xu Liji and Bai Zhexiu, the third prince of Nanzhao.
Their relationship, traced back, originated from Bai Zhexiu's foreign family, which is intricately intertwined, if you don't study it carefully, there is really any connection.
However, in the end, it is certain that Bai Zhexiu and Xu Liji are cousins, but this matter has been hidden, and outsiders have no way of knowing.
It is worth mentioning that although the temple is a new sect, it is the embodiment of the hidden clan in the Southern Regions.
The reappearance of the hermit clan in the rivers and lakes is not known, whether they want to get the glory of the hermit back then, but it is inevitable to solve problems for Bai Zhexiu's road to imperial power.
Among the details, Murong Jiu had no intention of studying them in detail, Bai Zimo's own strength and now with the help of the photo studio and the dark pavilion, it was enough to compete with one of them.
For example, today, there is hidden civil strife in the four countries, among which the Qilian State is the strongest.
The Prince of Qilian was completely killed by Emperor Qilian in anger because of the failure to assassinate the emperor.
A series of accidents, such as the abolition of the crown prince and the imprisonment of several princes, and even the re-establishment of the little prince as the crown prince, shocked the people of Qilian and gave the other three kingdoms a wake-up call.
For these, Murong Jiu's mood is now powerless to sigh, but when he heard these news, he couldn't help but sigh for Princess Pingyang, but it is worth being happy that Xuanyuan Rui, the second brother, is still willing to protect her sister, who married far away and was convicted of house arrest.
Because of Xuanyuan Rui's relationship, Princess Pingyang and her husband Helian Hongcai were not assigned to too difficult places.
Although he was not allowed to leave his fiefdom for the rest of his life, fortunately it was not very difficult there.
As for the Dongyue Kingdom, it can be said that it is relatively calm among the four countries.
It's just that Lou Lanxi died, and I heard that she accidentally fell into the lake and then went like this.
Whether there are other causes of this, no one will find out.
However, Dongfang Yu, the prince of Dongyue, because of his improper virtue and the fact that he had been the prince for many years without much political achievements, the emperor felt that he was not suitable to be the king of a country and abolished him, and re-sealed the prince and gave him a mansion.
At this point, the position of the crown prince is vacant.
After staying in Yicheng for a month, everything in the world fell like snowflakes in Murong Jiu's eyes, but none of them could attract half of her attention.
She didn't let go of any information from the shadows, not to know this!
But what she wanted...... But there was never a clue.
Where exactly is Dongfang Yi?
Where exactly?
Where is it?
Murong Jiu asked this question countless times, and the eyes that looked at the statue of the Buddha couldn't help but turn red.
Especially no matter how sad she was, the thunderous smile in the eyes of the Buddha statue made Murong Jiu's sadness explode, and tears unconsciously flooded.
Murong Jiu wept silently, but he still didn't give up looking at the Buddha statue, like a child with blocked breath, wanting to get some recognition or response from the eyes of adults.
Until the sound of tears falling to the ground became more and more frequent, attracting Yue'er's attention.
"Princess! Why are you crying again, it's not good for the fetus. ”
Yue'er knelt in front of Murong Jiu, and hurriedly took out a handkerchief to wipe Murong Jiu's tears.
A few days ago, Murong Jiu cried a lot, although he always hid behind people and was in a daze.
But as people close to Murong Jiu, Yue'er and the others still found out inadvertently.
In this regard, both she and Yu'er thought of many reasons to persuade her, but apart from the child in her belly, there was nothing that could make Murong Jiu calm down a little.
So much so that every time they found Murong Jiu crying silently later, the only thing they could persuade was the child.
Because of this, no one dared to take the initiative to mention Dongfang Yi's matter in front of Murong Jiu.
But since Murong Jiu was found secretly crying a few times by them, Murong Jiu stopped crying, even if he would often hide in the room or corner alone in a daze.
Now, she actually knelt in front of the idol and cried, Yue'er didn't have to think about it to know why!
I couldn't help but feel a tingling of sadness in my heart.
The princess has been recuperated by the teacher this month, and the fetus in her womb has also recovered her health.
But although the princess should also eat and sleep!
But her body, which didn't have much flesh, is now thinner, and even the belly that holds a small life is not at all.
These, in the eyes of these people, how distressing it is.
But now except for finding her uncle, there is no way to restore the princess's former glory.
After all, although they knew how painful Murong Jiu was in her heart, she always looked indifferent in her daily life, she was also smart and intelligent, and she would laugh when she should laugh, so what could they do?
They were all afraid that if they did too much, it would make Murong Jiu's heart even more burdensome, so it was better to let it be, maybe she could feel a little more comfortable.
When Yue'er rushed in front of her, Murong Jiu restrained her mind, no matter how painful she was, she knew that she shouldn't let the people around her worry about her.
Yes, as Yue'er wiped her tears for her, she slowly regained her mood, and slowly stood up with Yue'er's support, handed the incense in her hand to Yue'er and inserted it into the incense burner.
Before leaving the main hall, she took one last look at the smiling eyes, Murong Jiu made a grand wish in front of the Buddha for the first time in her life: as long as Dongfang Yi came back alive, she would use her ability to do good deeds for the world in this life.
