Chapter Twenty-Three: The Abbot of Spiritual Void

Prime Minister's Office.

Since Ling Yufei left, Ling Yuwei had been lingering at the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, her heart was very worried and anxious, and she wanted to know the progress of the matter as soon as possible.

Seeing that the time until tomorrow noon was getting less and less, Ling Yuwei's heart was getting more and more painful, she was really afraid that she would not be able to save Nangong Yi, she didn't dare to think about such a cruel fact, she couldn't accept it at all.

Her only hope now is Ling Yufei, so she has been waiting here for her to come back, and I hope that what she brings back will be good news.

"Wei'er, don't worry too much, we will definitely be able to rescue Yi." In fact, Yan Zimo was also very worried in his heart, but he didn't show it, because he was the eldest brother, and he had to comfort Ling Yuwei, so he must not mess around.

"Cousin, don't worry, we won't let the third brother have an accident." Although Nangong Jin'er didn't know how to save Nangong Yi, she was still trying her best to comfort Ling Yuwei.

"yes, I know." Ling Yuwei looked anxiously ahead, and reluctantly replied to Yan Zimo and Nangong Jin'er with a smile, she didn't want them to worry about herself.

"Sister, I'm back." Just as Ling Yuwei was anxiously waiting, Ling Yufei's figure finally appeared in her field of vision.

"Fei'er, how's it going? Is Erniang willing to help? As soon as she saw Ling Yufei coming back, Ling Yuwei couldn't wait to ask, with a strong expectation in her eyes.

"Sister, don't worry, my mother has already agreed to help, I believe there will be good news soon." Ling Yufei knew that Ling Yuwei must be worried about this matter, so she rushed back as fast as she could.

"Really? That's great. Although this was only the first step in rescuing Nangong Yi, Ling Yuwei was still very happy, at least she saw hope, and now she had to think about what to do next.

"Sister, my mother has done too many things to hurt you before, I am here to apologize to you for her, I hope you can forgive her." Shen Birou was very clear about what Ling Yuwei had done to Ling Yufei before, she didn't think there was anything wrong with her before, but now that she thought about it, she realized that everything was so excessive.

"I've already said that the past will let them pass, I won't care, and my sister shouldn't take it to heart." In the past, Ling Yuwei really didn't like Shen Birou very much, especially after she poisoned Ling Yuwei to make her stupid, but now she doesn't want to care about anything anymore.

"Okay." After listening to Ling Yuwei's words, Ling Yufei smiled reassuringly, she had been worried that Ling Yuwei would not forgive Shen Birou before, but now it seems that there is no need to worry.

Now Ling Yufei only hopes that Shen Birou can successfully persuade Concubine Li, and then Concubine Li will make Nangong Ye change her mind, they can successfully rescue Nangong Yi, in this way, Shen Birou has at least done one thing for Ling Yuwei, which can be regarded as making up for the damage she caused her in the past.

Palace.

"Abbot Lingxu, please take a step to speak." Shen Birou was sent by Concubine Li to the gate of the palace to greet the abbot of Lingxu Temple, originally such a trivial matter should not be done by her, but in order to complete the thing she promised Ling Yufei, she took the initiative to ask Concubine Li for this errand.

"Mama Shen, please speak." Because Concubine Li often took Shen Birou to Lingyin Temple to pray for blessings, the abbot of Lingxu recognized her at a glance, and because he knew her identity, he spoke very respectfully.

"Abbot Lingxu, the reputation of Lingyin Temple is so good, there must be a lot of people who come to pray every day, right?" Shen Birou did not directly explain her intentions, but decided to test the abbot of Lingxu first.

"My Buddha is compassionate and can benefit all sentient beings, and there will definitely be no shortage of people who pray for blessings." The abbot of Lingxu didn't know what Shen Birou wanted to say, thinking that she was praising Lingyin Temple, so he felt a little proud in his heart.

"Then the annual sesame oil money will not be less, right?" Shen Birou smiled softly and asked this sentence in a low voice, and the corner of her eyes was also observing the reaction of the Lingxu Abbot.

"Mama Shen doesn't know, although there are many people praying for blessings, but the sesame oil money is pitiful." At the mention of sesame oil money, the expression of the abbot of Lingxu became a little unnatural, but it quickly returned to normal.

"I don't think it's pitiful, but it's all hidden by the abbot of Lingxu, right?" Shen Birou withdrew her smile and said with a sudden change of face.

"What does Mama Shen mean by this? Lao Gu is thinking about the temple, how can he hide the sesame oil money privately? In fact, the heart of the Lingxu Abbot had already begun to be a little flustered, because everything Shen Birou said was true, but he was still pretending to be very calm on the surface.

"Abbot Lingxu, there is a small house on the west side of Lingyin Temple that has been locked for many years, and only you can enter and exit that house...... Do you want me to go on? Speaking of this, Shen Birou deliberately paused.

"Mama Shen, don't say it, what do you want to do?" When the Lingxu Abbot heard Shen Birou mention that house, his face had changed greatly, because that house was the place he used to hide his money privately, but he couldn't understand why Shen Birou knew about it.

"I don't want to do anything, I just want to ask Abbot Lingxu for a small favor." Shen Birou knew very well that only after letting the Lingxu Abbot know that she had his handle in her hand would he be willing to help.

"As long as Mama Shen doesn't tell others what happened just now, no matter what the old man is doing, she can help." The abbot of Lingxu didn't want his reputation to be ruined, so he didn't dare to refuse Shen Birou's request.

"As long as the Lingxu Abbot is willing to help, I promise that no third person will know about your private money." Shen Birou deliberately raised her voice, just to scare the abbot of Lingxu.

"Mama Shen, don't say it, the old man has already said it, and he is willing to help no matter what he does." The abbot of Lingxu looked around a little nervously, for fear that others would hear about it.

"Okay, then I hope that the abbot of Lingxu can speak his mind." Shen Birou felt that it was almost over, so she didn't continue to scare the abbot of Lingxu.

"Then what does Mama Shen want Lao Wei to help you with?" Although the abbot of Lingxu was a little unconvinced, there was no way, after all, he didn't want to ruin his reputation, so he could only be coerced by Shen Birou.

"Actually, what I want you to do is very simple, when you go to pray for Concubine Li's blessing later, you must tell her that you must not kill in the palace in the past few days, especially not to kill people, otherwise today's blessing will not work." After thinking about it, Shen Birou finally decided to let the abbot of Lingxu tell Concubine Li like this.

In this way, the Lingxu Abbot would not know that they were doing this to save Nangong Yi, and Concubine Li would be more likely to believe what he said, and Nangong Ye would not have any doubts about it.
