Chapter Eighty-Four: Pandora's Box
It's just that Chu Xingyue didn't know that when she decided to meddle in the matter of the year, a fast horse galloped out of the Xiang'an Hall, carrying a letter written by Li Fuqing himself, and went straight to the direction of the palace.
After Chu Xingyue agreed to Xia Yunxiao's plea, she buried her head in contemplation.
This is the way she has always approached problems, sorting out the pros and cons before putting them into action, so that even if there is an accident in the future, she can find a way to minimize the damage value.
After all, the opponent this time is the queen, she can't be cautious, otherwise, if she really gets into trouble at that time, I'm afraid even Zhao Ling won't be able to save her.
She can be sure of one thing, that is, the reason why the queen wanted to put Luo Yao to death back then was probably because of Li Fuqing's woman.
You must know that Li Fuqing's brainless person loves Zhao Ling as his life, in the world of that brainless woman, I am afraid that Zhao Ling has long been bullied for himself, if anyone approaches Zhao Ling, or is treated differently by Zhao Ling, the end will be extremely miserable.
And Li Fuqing has always been favored by the queen, and it makes sense for the queen to eradicate Luo Yao for Li Fuqing.
It's just that all of this is just her guess now, and she can only prove that her hypothesis is valid if she finds evidence.
But where is she going to find evidence?
Zhao Ling has been depressed for so many years about Luo Yao's affairs, presumably this guy doesn't have much evidence in his hands, otherwise, with his temperament, he will definitely not spare those murderers who dare to harm Luo Yao.
Chu Xingyue locked herself in the meditation room and had a headache thinking about things, and in the end, she couldn't wait to roll on the bed and roll a few times, so that she could sober up and sober her head.
Chun Xing looked worriedly at Chu Xingyue, who seemed to be nervous for a while, and then stunned, after trying and trying, she finally mustered up the courage to stand up and said, "Miss, if you really can't think of something, why don't you let the slave go out for a walk with you?" Maybe a change of environment will help you feel good. ”
Chu Xingyue's hair was slightly disheveled and looked at Chunxing: "The words 'no way' on my face, are they obvious?" ”
Chun Xing couldn't bear to hit her young lady, but she still couldn't help her upright temperament, and nodded slightly.
Chu Xingyue continued to ask with dull eyes, "Am I useless now?" ”
"No, Miss, in the hearts of slaves, Miss is the smartest."
The intimate little padded jacket Chunxing little girl immediately clenched her hands into small fists and shook her encouragement in front of Chu Xingyue: "Miss is the kindest person the slave has ever seen in her life, obviously that Miss Luo Yao has nothing to do with Miss and you, but Miss you still decided to help her wash up her grievances, this kindness is not something that everyone can do." ”
"But your young lady regrets it now, and I deeply understand what it means to have no diamonds, don't do porcelain work."
"Miss, don't worry."
Chun Xing leaned over and gave Chu Xingyue a shoulder and said, "After all, five years have passed since this matter, and it was carried out at that speed back then, even the prince didn't have much way to catch the bad guys, not to mention that you just took over this matter, Miss, didn't you?!" ”
Chu Xingyue squinted comfortably and enjoyed Chunxing's massage technique, and really felt that raising a caring little girl by her side was really the wisest behavior in ancient feudal society.
Look at her smart and clever Xiao Chunxing, although she is usually a master who loves to sing disobedience at every turn, but at critical moments, she still abides by her personal maid's code.
After a few words of persuasion, Chu Xingyue actually felt a little soothed.
"Okay, so I'll put this matter aside for a while? Going out for a walk is also considered an empty brain? ”
Seeing that Chu Xingyue accepted her advice, Chun Xing immediately happily served her to put on her shoes and socks, and helped Chu Xingyue to step out of the meditation room.
The inner courtyard of Longquan Temple is very clean and simple, of course, it is also very monotonous.
Chu Xingyue took Chun Xing all the way down the gravel road to the depths of the inner courtyard, except for the occasional sight of one or two birds parked on the extremely regular bushes that were trimmed, there was not even a single figure on the road
It wasn't until I was about to reach the end of the inner courtyard that I found that outside the inner courtyard wall, there was actually an extremely dense bamboo forest.
The wind blows the bamboo, and the bamboo leaves collide with each other, making a rustling sound, which is matched with the sound of bells and drums in the temple, but it has a unique artistic conception.
Chu Xingyue came to a wooden sign erected in front of the bamboo forest and read the three words on it carefully.
"Knowing the forest. Good name, it turns out that this bamboo forest is called this name, I don't know how to return, as if to return, it is really worthy of the bamboo forest of the temple, and even the name is so Zen. ”
Chu Xingyue sighed in admiration, and at the same time couldn't help but pull the corners of her mouth, it seemed that she was not very interested in this wooden card, but she was quite interested in this bamboo forest.
Seeing that Chu Xingyue was quite eager to try this bamboo forest, Chun Xing seemed to know something, and immediately grabbed Chu Xingyue's arm, and whispered and tabooly: "Miss, let's leave here quickly." ”
Chunxing's appearance made Chu Xingyue strange at that time, this girl has always been very bold, why did this son show a timid look?
"Why leave? I think this forest is good, let's go in and have a look. ”
With that, Chu Xingyue stepped forward.
Chun Xing hurriedly followed from behind, grabbed Chu Xingyue, and almost dragged Chu Xingyue to the ground because of her rude movements.
Chu Xingyue finally stabilized her figure, and looked at Chunxing with her pounding heart: "I said little girl, what's wrong with you today?" See this forest convulsions? ”
"Miss, Miss, the slave didn't mean it." Saying that, Chun Xing steadily supported Chu Xingyue and continued: "The slave maid is in trouble, so she offended you. ”
Chu Xingyue pulled her hand out of Chunxing's hand, put on a serious attitude, and asked her, "If you have any troubles, say it." ”
"Slave, slave ......, slave doesn't want to scare Miss."
Seeing this little girl spitting and spitting, Chu Xingyue was really anxious, so she didn't say a word, ignored this girl, and turned around and went to the forest again.
Chun Xing saw that Chu Xingyue was running into the forest like a stubborn donkey and was not afraid of death, so she didn't care about anything, and shouted to Chu Xingyue with a straight voice: "Slave maid heard that this place is haunted!" ”
Chu Xingyue, who was walking forward, immediately stopped her steps, like a movie replay in slow motion, and turned her head to look at Chun Xing, who shouted such a sentence with her eyes closed.
Chun Xing slowly opened her eyes, and when she saw that Chu Xingyue had finally stopped, she hurriedly ran up again, hugged Chu Xingyue's arm tightly, and was about to drag her back.
"Miss, it's true, the slave maid just came to the capital and heard the mother-in-law in the house say, talking about the bamboo forest in the backyard of Longquan Temple, the most mysterious and weird, it doesn't look big, but once people walk in, they will be like hitting a ghost in the same place and never get out; Everyone said that there are ghosts here, don't come close, otherwise your soul will be sucked away by the ghosts, and you will never want to come out alive again. ”
Seeing that Chun Xing finished saying these words with palpitations, Chu Xingyue was not scared away, but aroused her curiosity.
Haunted? Haunted in such a century-old temple where incense is flourishing and where the Buddha sits?
Even if this kind of baseless words are spread, I'm afraid no one will believe it, and only some women in the back house will believe it as a false rumor.
Chu Xingyue grabbed Chunxing, who was holding her and didn't let go, flicked the girl's stupid head with her fingers, and said, "Do you believe this kind of nonsense?" You don't want to think about it, Longquan Temple is a century-old temple, and the abbot of Longquan Temple, Master Wuchen, is a monk, this kind of place is the most pure and peaceful, how can it be haunted? Only a stupid girl like you would believe this kind of unfounded nonsense. ”
Chun Xing was taught a lesson by Chu Xingyue, rubbing her head that was hurt by the bullet, and there were tears of grievance in the corners of her eyes: "But Miss, the slave maid heard that many people have never come out after seeing someone walk in, and everyone is watching, are these also nonsense?" ”
Chu Xingyue subconsciously lifted her cheeks, looked at Chun Xing thoughtfully, and swept the Zhigui Lin in front of her with a look in her eyes.
If her guess was correct, the forest in front of her should be an ordinary forest.
But Chun Xing said that it was rumored that people who walked into this forest would spin around in it like they had hit a ghost and never get out again, but she felt that those people didn't look like they were hitting a ghost at all, but like they were hit by the formation in this forest.
Yes, someone must have set up a formation in this forest, so that after people break in by mistake, they can't distinguish between southeast and northwest, so they can only walk around; In the end, it became the gossip of 'hitting ghosts and sucking away souls'.
As soon as she thought of this possibility, Chu Xingyue immediately became very interested.
You must know that her pair of heavenly eyes can see thousands of miles away, and the forest in front of her is only a few acres large, as long as she opens the heavenly eyes in the forest, she can walk out of it with her eyes closed.
In other words, even if there is a master who has laid the most powerful formation in this forest, it can be regarded as bad luck to meet her.
However, she was very curious, what kind of person ran into the bamboo forest of Longquan Temple to toss such a hand, and what was that person doing this for?
Chu Xingyue was frowning, and suddenly thought of the bamboo building where the presiding abbot of the temple lived, could it be that the strangeness in this forest was done by that person?
Thinking that Zhao Ling was now busy with his feet in order to investigate the dustless master, right now, she had a chance to touch a certain truth, which made her suddenly feel thirsty and thirsty, and her eyes began to become confused.
Exactly, do you want to go in and have a look?!
Chu Xingyue bit her fingernails uneasily, and the back of her feet also shook uneasily; She had a feeling that if this bamboo forest was really the masterpiece of that dustless master, then there must be a big secret hidden in it.
