Chu Qingyu was standing beside Mu Youchang, and naturally saw this scene.

Chu Qingyu glanced at the fire candle that fell to the ground with a faint expression, and also smiled.

The husband and wife walked hand in hand, and also walked out of the meditation hall with the others.

Outside the hall, the cold wind was still howling, and the oncoming cold wind seemed to be even more violent and biting than just now, and the weather seemed to become more and more gloomy, and thick clouds were piled up in the air.

Mu Youchang carefully helped Chu Qingyu gather his cloak, looking like a husband and wife were in deep love.

The soldiers outside the hall were divided into two ways, Master Huineng took a small chamberlain to the merit box to donate sesame oil money, on the other side, the emperor had not gone far, and Cen Yin, Anping and his party were walking towards the direction of the back temple without hurrying, talking and laughing.

Chu Qingyu stared at the emperor for a moment, and then his gaze moved from the emperor to Cen Yin in the right rear, and for a moment, his mind was in turmoil, and then he turned into an inevitable.

"Your Highness, let's go."

Chu Qingyu regrouped, returned to his usual graceful and elegant appearance, and chased after Mu Youchang with him, following the emperor with low eyebrows.

Duanmu Fei walked beside Anping step by step, and said to Anping with a smile: "I look at this weather, it may snow again tomorrow." ”

Although the snow is a little cold, she can confidently nest in the Zhanqing courtyard and not go out, that is a great benefit, anyway, she has a charcoal basin in the house, and it doesn't matter if it doesn't snow.

"Scarlet, then when the snow stops, you go to my place, how about we sweep the snow and make tea, and enjoy the plums?" An Ping invited with a smile.

Duanmu Fei likes the Merlin in the Princess's Mansion the most, and the crisp sound responds.

Chu Qingyu seemed to be gossiping and chatted with them: "Auntie, the fourth girl of Duanmu, it is really good Yaxing. ”

"We should also learn from my aunt." Mu Youchang echoed with a smile, and raised his hand to straighten the cloak on his body.

Duanmu Fei's gaze inadvertently swept over Mu Youchang, and he didn't intend to pay attention to him, but his gaze suddenly froze.

She noticed that Mu Youchang's right sleeve was stained with a little dark black "stain", and when she looked closely, it seemed that his sleeve had been burned by the fire.

Duanmu pursed her lips quietly, smiling innocently and cutely, her eyes paused on Mu Youchang's cuffs, and her thoughts flew around.

As the second prince, it is impossible to wear a torn robe to go out, so his robe should have been destroyed after leaving the house.

In broad daylight, there are not many opportunities to stain the candle flame outside the house......

Duanmu Fei's mind quickly flashed the scenes after they met the emperor and his party, and a certain speculation appeared in his heart.

Could it be ......

"Ahh

Duanmu Fei stopped and snorted softly, his facial features almost wrinkled together.

"Girl, what's wrong?" The emperor also stopped, and turned his head to look at her, almost not being amused by the little girl's expression that the sky was about to fall.

Duanmu Fei touched the purse on his waist, and replied with a bitter face: "Master Mu, my little seal has been removed." ”

As she spoke, her brows furrowed, as if she was trying to recall something, "My little seal must have fallen in the Meditation Temple." Master Mu, I have to go back and find it. ”

An Ping was about to tell Ziyue to help Duanmu Fei find Xiaoyin, but she felt that her left sleeve was being pulled, and the little girl who pulled her cuff was untying her purse and looking into her purse in distress.

What tricks is Scarlet playing? An Ping moved his eyebrows and waited on the sidelines, while quietly looking at the others around him.

Mu Youchang and Chu Qingyu both changed their faces slightly, and glanced in the direction of the Meditation Palace, and the couple quickly exchanged glances.

The fire in the Meditation Hall had not yet risen, and of course they couldn't just let Duanmu return to the Meditation Palace.

Chu Qingyu pinched the handkerchief in his hand, and said as if unintentionally: "Fourth girl Duanmu, will you remember wrong?" How do you carry a small seal with you? ”

For men, wearing a small seal is a more formal attire, but not for women.

When the emperor thought about it, he was aroused a little curious.

Duanmu Fei didn't look at Chu Qingyu, and said directly to the emperor: "Master Mu, I deliberately went out with Xiaoyin today, and I made an appointment with Grandpa Xuanguo to go to the Guogong Mansion to stamp a painting." I have been looking for this seal stone for several months, or not long ago I happened to see the best peach blossom jelly Shoutian stone from my grandfather, and I polished it for a long time before I finally asked my grandfather to ask for it, and it took several days to carve it. ”

The more she talked, the more reluctant she became, and her delicate little face was sad.

Looking at the innocent-looking little girl in front of him, the emperor moved his eyebrows.

In fact, the emperor did not completely relieve his doubts, as long as An Ping lived for one day, he would never be able to completely let go.

This suspicion was inevitably brought to Duanmufei, after all, she is now Anping's daughter-in-law, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are obviously quite close to each other......

Duanmufei had to go back to the meditation hall at this time, so that the emperor always felt that something was not quite right, and his scrutinizing eyes swept between An Ping and Duanmufei, faintly revealing a bit of cold light.

"Ah Yin." The Emperor suddenly called.

Cen stepped forward with a faint smile and listened to the holy command.

Another gust of cold wind blew, blowing Cen Yin's robe flying, hunting sound, in the cold wind, he was still as tall as a bamboo, without a trace of shrinkage, it seemed that his thin figure became more and more handsome, even if he stood in front of the emperor, it was still difficult to hide his elegance.

"You go to the meditation hall and take a look for the little girl." The emperor commanded, his tone was as usual, but his gaze was particularly deep, as deep as a bottomless abyss, making people dare not look directly.

He wanted Cen Yin to take a closer look to see if the meditation hall was anything strange.

"Yes, sir." Cen Yin smiled and took the order.

Duanmu Fei was as kind as a stream, smiled obediently, and blessed Cen Yin, "That's troublesome for Cen Gongzi." She took advantage of the movement of the blessed body and blinked quickly at Cen Yin.

Shrewd Ru Cen Yin comprehended Duanmu Fei's eyes, he smiled slightly, that beautiful face was like the red plum in the snowstorm, glamorous and overwhelming, "The fourth girl of Duanmu is polite." ”

Cen Yin turned around and walked back, always calmly and unhurriedly, obviously his pace was not slow, but it gave people a feeling of walking slowly and peacefully, like an ink painting, which was pleasing to the eye.

"......" A flash of urgency flashed in Mu Youchang's eyes, although he wanted to stop Cen Yin, but he had no good excuse and could only give up.

More than enough is too much.

If he talks too much, it will only make his father suspicious of him.

Mu Youchang could only watch Cen Yin leave, his heartbeat was pounding faster, his thoughts were confused, and he said to himself, even if Cen Yin found the meditation hall walking water, he shouldn't guess that he did it......

Chu Qingyu also looked at Cen Yin's back, and stopped talking, she subconsciously wrung the handkerchief in her hand, again and again, and said in her heart: This is too unfortunate. Is such a good move going to be ruined in Duanmufei's hands......

At this time, a small chamberlain cautiously asked the emperor: "Master, do you want to sit in the pavilion in front for a while?" ”

The emperor replied absentmindedly, and Marquis Xuanwu said playfully on the side: "Master, I recently got some fifty-year-old Pu'er, and I happened to bring it with me when I went out today, so let's make a pot of tea in the pavilion, sir, will you give you a taste?" ”

As they spoke, they walked in the direction of the pavilion, and the others followed the emperor in a majestic manner.

And Cen Yin had already turned along the bluestone brick path at his feet, and the meditation hall was more than ten zhang away in front of him.

Before he could enter, he smelled a faint smell of burning wafting from the hall.

Cen Yin's eyes froze, and he entered the hall in three steps and two steps, and at a glance, he saw that the yellow curtain that had been torn on the ground by Chu Qingyu before was burning, and the red flames wantonly devoured the curtain, expanding his territory, and the raging flames spread along the curtain and burned upward......

Cen Yin immediately made a decision, picked up the heavy bronze incense burner on the side, poured the incense ashes in the incense burner into the fire, and raised his hand to tear off the burning curtain and throw it on the ground.

A few sporadic sparks jumped unwillingly twice between the incense ash and the drapery, and then dimmed, and finally fell silent.

Cen Yin casually glanced at the ground, and soon saw a candle that was almost submerged in incense ashes...... His gaze paused on the candle for a moment, then gradually moved upwards to the candle on the right.

On a neat row of candles, the abrupt "gap" is very eye-catching.

Cen Yin narrowed her narrow and charming eyes, and the bottom of her eyes became brighter and brighter, and she couldn't help but remember that Duanmu Fei suddenly said that her little seal was missing just now.

Could it be that she guessed that this place was on fire?!

The corners of Cen Yin's bewitching lips curled slightly, revealing a kind of brotherly pride.

Her sister is really cute and cunning, and Feng Yan is really a blessing!

Cen Yin continued to walk forward, past the mess on the ground until he walked to the closed Buddha shrine, then raised his hand to open the cabinet door, and pressed it to a certain place in the Buddha shrine, and the second layer of the Buddha shrine was revealed, and several mahogany tablets with gold lacquer characters stood quietly there.

Cen Yin stared at the two tablets expressionlessly, his long narrow eyes changing brightly and secretly, and there seemed to be a lot of secrets hidden in them.

He just stood there like this, and his whole body exuded a sense of vicissitudes and sadness...... with missing.

Soon, Cen Yin closed the Buddha shrine again, and his palm stayed on the cabinet door almost rubbing for a moment, then turned around and walked out of the meditation hall.

Compared with the smell of incense and burnt smell in the hall, the air outside the hall is much fresher, and the cold air penetrates the tip of the nose, which makes people feel refreshed.

When he stepped out of the high threshold, Cen Yin changed again, with a smile on the corner of his mouth and a pleasant expression, like a noble son who visited the temple to make incense.

He slowly walked down the stone steps, and saw Master Huineng hurrying towards this direction.

"Donor." Master Huineng made a Buddhist salute to Cen Yin, and glanced at the meditation hall behind him, his eyes slightly condensed.

Cen Yin smiled faintly and dropped a sentence: "The weather is dry, be careful of the candle." ”

He didn't stop, and passed by Master Huineng unhurriedly.

Master Huineng twisted his eyebrows, then calmed down again, and solemnly recited the Buddha: "Amitabha." ”

Cen Yin walked back along the road he had come from, strolling leisurely, as if nothing had happened in the meditation hall.

Step by step, he walked extremely slowly.

When he returned to the place where they had stayed for a short time, suddenly, he stopped, and his eyes fell on a red plum tree on the side of the road, and among the various petals and fallen leaves on the ground, there was a peach blossom jelly stone seal lying quietly, and the seal button was a cute little fox.

Cen Yin had also seen Duanmufei's baby little fox dumpling, leaned over and picked up this delicate and cute seal, put it between his fingers and played with it, hooked his lips and smiled.

The clouds in the sky grew thicker and thicker, so gloomy that they seemed to drip water.

But Cen Yin's mood was surprisingly good, and there was a faint hint of brightness in his charming smile.

He held the seal in his hand, continued to walk along the bluestone brick path, and after walking for another twenty or thirty zhang, he saw the pavilion where the emperor and his party were.

There is a small red clay stove outside the pavilion, and there is a purple clay pot on the stove, and a small inner attendant is guarding the stove.

The people in the pavilion are drinking tea and talking at the same time, which makes this empty temple a little more vibrant.

A deaf and clear-eyed little chamberlain immediately saw Cen Yin, and after bowing his head and saying a word in the emperor's ear, the eyes of everyone in the pavilion looked towards Cen Yin in unison.

In the scorching eyes of everyone, Cen Yin was still calm and calm, and walked forward unhurriedly according to his rhythm.

Mu Youchang, who was sitting next to the emperor, stared at Cen Yin without blinking, his burning gaze almost burning a hole in his robe. How long has Cen Yin been gone, he has been worried for a long time, and the cup of tea in front of him has hardly been drunk.

Almost as soon as Cen Yin entered the pavilion, Duanmu Fei couldn't wait to stand up and asked nervously, "Young Master Cen, can I find my little seal?" ”

Her big eyes blinked, black and white, clear and clear like the black and white chess pieces.

Cen Yin raised his right hand behind him, and his right fist spread out in everyone's eyes, revealing the small seal of the peach blossom frozen stone in his palm.

In his slender and bony palm, the small seal seemed so small, and his jade-white skin seemed to be more delicate and radiant than the milky white seal stone.

"My little seal!" Duanmu Fei stroked his palms excitedly, and looked at Cen Yin with bright eyes, "Thank you Gongzi Cen." ”

She thanked Cen Yin, stepped forward to take the small seal from his hand, looked at it carefully, and finally smiled again.

Her lovely smile is like the morning light that lifts away the clouds, bright and bright.

Cen Yin smiled, his handsome appearance became more and more dazzling because of this smile, and said with a smile: "Fourth girl Duanmu, your little seal has indeed fallen in the Meditation Palace." ”

The emperor was relieved when he heard this, and leisurely picked up the white porcelain embossed tea cup in front of him, and brought it to his mouth, a tea fragrance similar to ginseng fragrance came to his nose, and the emperor's brows relaxed.

It turned out that it was really the little seal of the Duanmu family.

The emperor took a sip of tea, his eyes wandered quietly between An Ping and Duanmu Fei again, paused on Duanmu Fei's innocent little face, and said in his heart: Also, such a young girl who knows He Hanxing to look around the lively little girl's family all day long can have any heart...... It's not Anping, since he was a child, he has one more heart than others!

Thinking about it, the emperor's face smiled again, and he deliberately said to Duanmu in the posture of an elder: "Girl, you have to put away your things, and if you lose them next time, you may not be able to get them back." ”

"Master Mu is right." Duanmu nodded with concern, "I have to thank Gongzi Cen well." ”

"So, you're still a good person?" The emperor raised his eyebrows playfully and looked at Duanmu Fei.

"Of course, Master Mu." Afraid that the emperor would not believe it, Duanmu Fei emphasized to him seriously.

Cen Yin stood quietly to the side and did not speak again.

An Ping slowly picked up the teacup, the tea soup of Pu'er tea in the white porcelain teacup was as red as a ruby, red and transparent, and the water of the tea was reflected in her eyes, which made her beautiful phoenix eyes particularly bright.

Others believed Cen Yin and Duanmufei's words, but Anping didn't.

No matter when Scarlet's small seal fell, it was definitely not in the Meditation Palace.

However, Cen Yin also deliberately emphasized the "Meditation Palace", could it be that the reason why Fei'er "dropped" the small seal was to be able to return to the Meditation Hall justifiably? Although she didn't make it, Cen Yin did......

Anping drank the tea leisurely, savoring the fresh and sweet taste like ginseng in his mouth, and the faint tea fragrance was refreshing.

An Ping was not in a hurry, so she didn't look at Cen Yin, anyway, on the way back, she could ask Scarlet.

Mu Youchang was a little apprehensive in his heart, as if an ant was crawling around in his heart.

He endured and endured, but he couldn't help but quietly look at Cen Yin a few steps away by the action of drinking tea, but saw that Cen Yin was casually raising his right hand and dusting his shoulder, and a piece of ash the size of a grain of rice flew up from his shoulder with his movements, fluttering in the air......

Mu Youchang's eyes widened instantly, the tea cup in his hand shook, and the tea soup shook violently, almost not spilling out of the cup.

A cold wind blew violently towards the pavilion, causing the branches and leaves on the side of the pavilion to crackle and collide with each other, and the little ash was blown away by the wind in the blink of an eye.

Cen Yin seemed to sense something, and turned his head to look at Mu Youchang, his eyes seemed to be smiling.

Mu Youchang's heart chuckled and sank little by little......

Cen Yin must have found the fire candle on the ground of the meditation hall, but when he came back, he didn't say anything, only picked up a small seal and came back......

Could it be that he guessed that he had set the fire himself?

So, what will Cen Yin do?!

Will he tell his father?

If my father knew that he had just set fire to the meditation hall, he would inevitably ask himself why he did this, so how should he answer......

Mu Youchang seemed to have been poured a bucket of cold water on his head, and his face became more and more ugly.

The reason why he set fire to the meditation hall was to use the "fire", once the fire burned, Anping would definitely be anxious, only if she was in a hurry, if she was messed up, she would make a mistake, then her private confession of Emperor Chongming's tablet would be exposed!

At that time, he can ask his father for credit again.

However, there was a variable in the plan, so that before the fire started, Cen Yin found out that the meditation hall was on fire, and now the meditation hall is still calm, thinking that Cen Yin has already extinguished the fire.

Since he has not made meritorious contributions, then he has become arson in the temple for no reason, arson is a big crime, arson in the holy land of Buddhism is even more crime, not to mention that his father will not spare him, once the rumors spread, his reputation will be completely ruined.

I'm afraid he will really lose the throne in his life!

Thinking about it, a thin layer of sweat faintly oozed from Mu Youchang's forehead, and he took a sip of tea stiffly, only to feel that the Pu'er in this mouth was bitter and unbearable, as if he had added Coptis chinensis.

What Mu Youchang could think of, Chu Qingyu could of course think of, and his face didn't look good.

The emperor and Duanmu Fei were talking lively, and the topic of the two unconsciously said that Han Xing asked Duanmu Fei to carve a seal for her, the emperor thought of something, and raised his eyebrows funny, "Han Xing has been pestering me for a piece of Tianhuang Stone for the past two days, does he want you to help her carve a seal?" ”

Duanmu Fei spread his hands, looking like "I don't know about this".

The Emperor was even more interested, "Show me your little seal." ”

Duanmu triumphantly handed her small seal to the emperor, who played casually, feeling that although the little fox on the seal button was smart, it was a little childish after all.

When the emperor turned the small seal and looked at the inscription at the bottom, he couldn't help but show a look of emotion, raised his eyebrows, and praised: "Good carving!" ”

He had heard Han Xing always boast that Duanmu Fei's handwriting was good, but he listened to it, but he didn't pay much attention to it, thinking that no matter how well Duanmufei's handwriting was, it would not be as amazing as her piano and chess.

Now it seems that this little girl knows a lot of films, just this hand engraving, you can see that her handwriting is quite good, very muscular.

It's no wonder that this girl can receive a chant post from the three female students, but it's just ......

"Girl, why didn't you go to girls' school?" The emperor's heart moved, and he asked curiously.

Duanmu Fei and the emperor looked at each other, and said with a straight face: "Master Mu, it's too cold." ”

"......" The emperor was amused again, let out a hearty laugh, and shook his head helplessly.

The Marquis of Xuanwu and Prince Bao were also amused, and the atmosphere in the pavilion became more and more harmonious.

This girl is really still a child. The emperor looked at Duanmu Fei's eyes and softened a little, and said with a smile: "Girl, your craftsmanship in carving seals is not a waste of my piece of Tianhuangshi." His extraneous voice was that he agreed to give Tian Huangshi to Hanxing.

"Thank you Master Mu for the compliment." Duanmu Fei arched his hand at the emperor and smiled smugly, laughing so much that his eyes narrowed into crescent moons.

Well, she also asked for a good piece of Tianhuangshi for Hanxing when she came out, and by the way, she could also use it to practice, and her luck was really good!

Thinking about it, Duanmu Fei's hands were a little itchy, and he looked eager to try.

Looking at the cute little girl, An Ping could guess what she was thinking, and couldn't help but smile at her.

Prince Bao on the side took over the peach blossom jelly stone seal from the emperor's hand, and also appreciated it with Xuanwu Hou, the two of you are full of praise and I are full of praise, and I don't know if I really think this seal is well engraved, or I am just echoing the emperor.

In the pavilion, there was a lot of laughter and laughter, and everyone's eyes and topics revolved around Duanmufei, only Mu Youchang and Chu Qingyu were uneasy.

"Youchang, I remember that you are good at books, and you also comment on ......"

When Prince Bao handed the small seal to Mu Youchang, the depressed Mu Youchang didn't react for a while, and the small seal just slipped past his fingers and fell straight to the ground......

"Be careful!" The green pothos snorted nervously, the emperor looked at Mu Youchang and frowned, at this moment, a blue shadow flashed, and in the next moment, he saw a big white palm casually fishing down, and he easily held the small seal that fell straight down.

Cen Yin smiled slightly, let the peach blossom jelly stone seal lie in his palm, and said to Mu Youchang with a smile: "Your Highness, you have to be careful. ”

His feminine voice was as light and breezy as usual, but it was meaningful to Mu Youchang's ears, whether it was Cen Yin's "Your Highness" or his "Be careful", they all seemed to have thorns.

Mu Youchang's heart sank little by little......

What does Cen Yin mean by that?! Mu Youchang's pupils shrank, his body stiffened, his thoughts were so confused that he couldn't think calmly, and there was only one thought left in his mind: Cen Yin...... Is he trying to threaten himself by grabbing this handle of himself?!

The emperor was also relieved when he saw that Cen Yin had saved the small seal, and said with a smile: "Ah Yin, it seems that you are really the lucky star of the little girl today!" ”

As he spoke, the emperor glanced at Mu Youchang quickly, and his eyes were still unhappy when he looked at him, feeling that this second son was really frizzy today!

Mu Youchang was seen by the emperor and his face turned pale again.

Neither the emperor nor Mu Youchang noticed that a few rows of black ants in the corner of the pavilion slowly crawled towards this side, and the team was mighty......
