Chapter 197: Saving the Son

Tuk-tuk

Park Young carried a lantern and knocked on the door of the temple.

After a while, a young bhikshuni rubbed her sleepy eyes and opened the door.

As soon as he heard that His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince had arrived, he hurriedly welcomed them to the abbot of the Compassion Nunnery, and sat down in the small guest room of the Pure Heart Master, and after serving the tea, he quickly ran to invite the Master over.

"Amitabha, came here at night, but for the sake of the little world?"

Master Pure Heart is an old nun about 50 years old with a kind face. With a white and fat round face, two Danfeng eyes shining with wisdom were quietly looking at Chu Qingruo, who was sitting side by side beside Bai Lisheng.

"Oh, Shitai knows about this?" Bai Lisheng glanced at Chu Qingruo in surprise, and saw that she also showed surprise in his eyes, and then turned his head to ask Mrs. Shi.

On that day, the little benefactor of Lixiu sneakily returned to the Compassion Nunnery with a child, and the old nun was already a little suspicious. But please don't worry, the baby I have ordered someone to carry to my room, these days, are taken care of by me, the child is fine, just left the mother, crying a little more. ”

A stone in Chu Qingruo's heart finally fell to the ground.

"That, I also bothered the teacher to order someone to bring the child over, the inner character child has been restless after the loss of the child, and he washed his face with tears all day long, and now he knows that the child is fine, and his heart is quite anxious."

Bai Lisheng bowed his hand to Shi Tai and said politely.

Chu Qingruo glanced at him, this guy took advantage of her when he had the opportunity, who was his insider?

"This is the nature of mother and child, the normal state of human ethics, Lao Ni understands, understands." Mrs. Shi smiled and called out the door: "Minghui, go to my room and bring the child." ”

Outside the door, he said, "Yes!" ”

After a while, the child did not come, but there was a flustered footstep outside the door. A thirteen or fourteen-year-old bhikshuni pushed open the door of the guest's house in a panic: "Master, it's not good. The child in your room was snatched by the little benefactor of Lixiu, and now she is holding the child to the edge of the cliff on the mountain of the queen, saying that it is ......"

"Say what?" All three of them were shocked and asked in unison.

"Say yes...... He said he was going to take the kid to the cliff and throw him down! The little nun pointed in the direction of the back mountain, her face as earth-colored.

Before Bai Lisheng could speak, Chu Qingruo had already lifted her skirt and quickly chased her finger out.

At this moment, the sky is just a little cloudy. Everything in the world is shrouded in the darkest hours before dawn.

Chu Qingruo ran towards the mountain as fast as he could, while trying to identify the road.

The mountain behind Jishin-an is a small hill with dense bamboo forests, and the only way up the mountain is a bluestone slab staircase that follows the bamboo forest. Each step is half a foot high and a foot wide, sloping slightly. Coupled with the morning dew in the forest, this road is particularly difficult to walk, especially slippery, and if you are not careful, you will slip.

Chu Qingruo was anxious to save her son, and she didn't care that the damp dew wet her clothes, and she was blown cold by the mountain wind in the forest. didn't care about the slippery bluestone road, so she slipped three times in one step, fell several times, and her knees were painful.

At this moment, she has only one thought, radish, my mother is here to save you! You must be well-behaved, don't cry, don't annoy her!

Bai Lisheng led someone to hold a torch, chased after her from behind, helped her up, lifted her up a step, and said with concern: "Qingruo, why don't I carry you up?" ”

Before Chu Qingruo could speak, Gongsun Ju (Ye Yan) behind him volunteered to speak: "Your Highness, the road here is slippery, your noble status can't be missed, it's better to let the villain carry Mrs." ”

Bai Lisheng was about to refute, but Chu Qingruo agreed: "It's okay, Mr. will have to deal with things in a while, why don't you trouble this person who bears me up!" ”

In front of everyone's eyes, he didn't have a seizure, so he had to glare at Gongsun fiercely: This has no eyesight!

Ye Yan picked up Chu Qingruo on his back and quickly climbed to the top of the mountain.

On a small flat ground at the top of the mountain, a small figure was struggling to hold a crying child and walk towards the edge of the cliff.

"Don't cry, you're dead!" Lixiu's gruff voice echoed from the empty mountaintop.

"Babble...... Babbling ......" The stubborn radish ignored her scolding and still howled and cried.

Chu Qingruo felt distressed for a while, her fat radish was hungry. Naturally, the only food that can feed him in the temple is rice soup, and I don't know if he has been hungry or thin these days.

"Lixiu!"

At this moment, Chu Qingruo had no fear for the sake of his child, and he just wanted to save her child.

"Sister? I didn't expect you to be the first person to come here? What about my father? ”

The mountain summit is misty in the early morning. Lixiu's figure was a little looming in the mist, and her voice was sometimes clear and sometimes dull with the drifting mist.

"Lixiu, give me the child!" Chu Qingruo tried to take it step by step and slowly approached it.

"Stop, you're coming, it's foggy here, I can't see the road clearly, if you push it hard, I don't guarantee that you won't accidentally retreat to the edge of the cliff and fall down with this little cub!" Although Lixiu is not very old, her mind is meticulous and cunning.

"Okay, okay, I'll stand still, don't get excited!" Chu Qingruo looked at the figure in front of him nervously, stood up, and didn't dare to act rashly.

She was right, if she was approaching, she would have retreated step by step, and perhaps she would have retreated to the edge of the cliff. She looked at Ye Yan anxiously. I saw Ye Yan shaking his hand at her, pointing at himself again, and pointing to Lixiu opposite.

She understood, nodded gratefully at him, and continued to ask her questions, attracting her attention.

"Lixiu, I don't understand, why are you doing this?"

Not far away, her sad and angry voice came: "Chu Qingruo, you slut!" How dare you lie to me! ”

Chu Qingruo was surprised: "When did I lie to you?" What did I lie to you again? ”

Lixiu gritted her teeth: "You said that you wholeheartedly want to go back to Dayan and return to your husband's side." But how do you turn your head, and you will ...... with your father and Father...... Gave birth to such a pup? ”

Knowing that she had misunderstood the identity of the radish, Chu Qingruo pretended to be relaxed and said, "Oh~ It turns out that you took the radish out because of this." Are you mistaken, he was not born to me and your father? ”

"What turnip cabbage? You're trying to lie to me again? ”

Listening to this name, Lixiu couldn't help but jump a little, even the name was so foolish, and dared to say that she misunderstood? How can anyone name her child Radish is clearly that she is confusing the public.

"I really didn't lie to you, your father is behind, and he will be there soon, if you don't believe it, you can ask him." Chu Qingruo said step by step.

"Lixiu! Don't mess around! Come here and give the child to Qingruo! Bai Lisheng finally rushed over, vaguely angry and said to Lixiu, who was holding a crying radish not far away, and was confronting them.

"Father, are you here? You're here to pick up Lixiu and go back to Shizi's Mansion, aren't you? ”

In Bai Lisheng's life, he hated being coerced the most, and when he heard the words, he immediately scolded her unhappily: "Nonsense!" Didn't the king say that you should stay here until the king finds a good family for you and becomes a monk? Why, what do I say, you are the right to be the wind in your ears, right? ”

"Father, is it true that a woman gave birth to a son for you, and you don't want Lixiu, right?" Lixiu's voice was a little crying.

Bai Lisheng was suddenly upset, and with the tenet of "tiger poison does not eat children", he took several deep breaths before he reluctantly reached out to take the fan and slapped her heart to death and suppressed it.

"This king repeats, come here and return the child to Qingruo. I'll count to three, and if you don't obey again, don't blame your father for being ruthless! Gradually losing his patience, he gave her an ultimatum.

Lixiu became more and more heartbroken when she heard this: "Sure enough, father, you don't want me if you have a little brother!" He turned to his arms, and he was still "babbling...... babbling......" The radish that kept crying made a resentful voice: "Tell you not to cry, did you hear it!" Cry, cry, cry, you'll cry! It's noisy! ”

So saying, he lifted the turnip up.

Chu Qingruo screamed loudly, and Bai Lisheng and the people behind him couldn't help but let out an exclamation: "Lixiu (Miss), no!" ”

The sky gradually brightened, and the rising sun dispelled the mist, revealing the full face of the mountaintop. In a clearing not much larger than a threshing floor, with two tall rocks on one side and a slope lush with bamboo forests on the other, Lixiu was behind a cliff that went straight down.

At this time, everyone found out that Baili Lixiu, who was holding the child, was actually only a few steps away from the cliff, and they couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. It was really dangerous just now, if you take a few steps forward, I'm afraid that even Baili Lixiu will fall off the cliff together.

Although this is just a small mountain, if a person falls straight from it, I am afraid that it will be a life of nine deaths, and the chance of survival is very small.

"Lixiu, I know you've always been a good boy, you're just...... It's so lonely, you want your father to accompany you more, don't you? I understand, we all understand you, come, be obedient, give the child to my sister, okay? ”

Chu Qingruo inadvertently saw behind the two-person-high boulder on the left, flashed Ye Yan's figure, and then became bold, while talking to Bai Lixiu, diverting her attention from the distressed fall, he stretched out his two hands and slowly approached her.

Bai Lisheng also understood Chu Qingruo's intentions, and no longer stimulated Bai Lixiu with strong words, but instead tempted her with an extremely gentle tone: "Xiu'er, my father has been too busy all the time, ignoring you, I blame my father for not being good, come on, give it to Qingruo, my father will take you home, okay?" ”

Unexpectedly, they all seemed to have forgotten that Bai Lixiu's child's mind had long been different from that of an ordinary child, and such an obvious change, where could she be coaxed.

I saw her shouting angrily: "Shut up! Shut up, y'all! Shut up! You think I'm too young to be fooled, do you? Father, although it hasn't been long since you came back, Lixiu has heard people talk about you since she was a child, and with your temperament, how can you be moved by just a few words. Looks like you really love this kid. ”

When Chu Qingruo heard this, he suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, and he didn't care if she would make the next move, so he glanced at Ye Yan who was hiding behind the boulder, and the two of them rushed towards her one after the other.

At the same time as they rushed over, Bai Lisheng and Lixiu also moved at the same time.

Bai Lisheng stepped forward and waved a palm at Lixiu, and Bai Lixiu turned around and threw the radish in his hand off the cliff!
