Nan Qiao's eyes moved to Ruyi, and his tone was accentuated, "Remember?" ”

Ruyi nodded and said obediently, "Miss, the slave knows!" ”

The three-day fast is only the second day, and now the abbot is not in the temple, the old lady of Nalan Mansion and the Li family have been arrested, and the crowd in Nalan Mansion has no leader, and I don't know whether to stay or go.

Just after noon, Aunt Zhao and Aunt Yao found Nan Qiao to discuss the matter.

"Second Miss, what do you think of this matter?" Yao spoke first.

Nan Qiao looked at Zhao, "What does Aunt Zhao think?" ”

Aunt Zhao obviously thought about it, "Worshipping the Buddha pays attention to sincerity and spirituality, and if this happens, it is naturally not good to stay any longer!" ”

Nan Qiao hooked his lips slightly, carried the teapot on the table, and added some tea to the two of them.

"Aunt Zhao's intention is exactly what I want!"

"It's just that now that the old lady and lady are not here, the eldest lady and the fourth lady may not listen to our arrangement." This is what Zhao wants to say.

Nan Qiao held the teacup, blew it gently, and said indifferently, "Whether they leave or stay with them, let's clean up and go home in the afternoon!" ”

Zhao and Yao each picked up their teacups and took a small sip dignifiedly.

After sending off the Zhao and Yao families, Nan Qiao instructed Ji Xiang Ruyi to pack the package, and Ji Wuyu had already sent a message to tell her that he had left.

Nan Qiao went to the Buddhist hall with peace of mind.

This time, she sincerely went to worship the Buddha.

She was the only one in the huge Buddhist hall, and she could hear her own breathing quietly.

Nan Qiao lit a stick of incense and knelt on the futon, his eyes closed, and he silently recited the only wish in his heart. Then she sincerely held the incense stick and bowed three times, looking at the bottle of Buddha statue in front of her, Nan Qiao hoped that what she wanted could really be realized.

Finally, she stood up and inserted the incense in her hand into the altar.

She wanted to leave, but she couldn't help but finish what she hadn't done in the morning and check those Buddha statues.

I thought I would find nothing, but I didn't expect her to really find out that one of the Buddha statues was unusual, the big-bellied Maitreya Buddha smiled with only one slit in his eyes, but the bottle of Buddha in front of him, although the eyes are not big, but it doesn't seem to be a natural stone statue carving, and there is a slight crack around it.

Nan Qiao looked around, there was still no one in the Buddhist hall, so he couldn't help but reach out and poke it, and when he poked, his eyes would roll slightly.

This discovery startled Nan Qiao, even if she was mentally prepared, she couldn't help but be shocked to come like this.

She took a deep breath and poked another eyeball with the audacity, and with a click, like the sound of some mechanical friction, the wall behind the Buddha statue opened with a thud, revealing an entrance.

Nan Qiao looked left and right, and walked in with a candlestick next to the Buddha statue, and soon after she entered, the door closed automatically.

Curiosity led her all the way forward, and after walking for a long time, she felt that this was obviously a secret passage, which should be used by the monks of the temple to escape when they needed it.

After walking for about half an hour, I finally walked to the exit, which was a deserted thatched hut, Nan Qiao lifted the lid from under the floor of the thatched hut, and looked around after coming out, and found that it had arrived in the mountain forest north of Huguo Temple.

Nan Qiao was a little excited, this Buddha Lord is really spiritual, she just made a wish to help her brother get out of here, but she didn't expect to let her discover this escape tunnel so quickly, even God is helping her, what reason does she have not to succeed!

Before dark, Nan Qiao returned to Nalan Mansion with Zhao, Yao and others, although Nalan Yanqin and Nalan Xunchun were unwilling, they still followed all the way back.

What Nan Qiao didn't expect was that when he returned to Nalan Mansion this time, even Nalan Guangyao, who he hadn't seen for many days, came back.

In the living room, Nalan Guangyao only summoned her alone.

Looking at the middle-aged man sitting firmly in the high hall, he was wearing a dark blue dark pattern robe, which was the one he used to wear in the mansion before, and his somewhat dark face was tired.

"Father, are you back?" Nan Qiao saluted.

Nalan Guangyao has obviously lost a lot of weight, "Yu'er, my father knows it." ”

In a word, Nan Qiao didn't know how to answer, she really wanted to ask, what did her father know? But in the end, he didn't ask, he just said,

"The father refers to the marriage of his daughter?"

Nalan Guangyao looked at her and nodded helplessly, "There is also the matter of today's Huguo Temple." He added, "Your grandmother is implicated, and your father has already seen her in the prison, which is damp, and your grandmother is old!" ”

Speaking of this, Nalan Guangyao raised his eyes and looked at Nan Qiao, and said earnestly, "Although your grandmother is strict with her children, she will never let the people below harm you, not to mention that in a place like a Buddhist temple, your grandmother believes in Buddhism, and she will definitely not let the people below do this..."

Nalan Guangyao wanted to speak and stopped.

Nan Qiao lowered his eyes slightly, "Father, what do you mean...?" ”

Nalan Guangyao sighed, "Now, only you can speak in front of King Pingding, except for the emperor, he doesn't give anyone face, this incident happened in Huguo Temple, the impact is very great, if King Pingding has to do business... As a father, I really can't have a son, so I came to you! ”

It seems that Ji Wuyu wants to do business in this matter, and her cheap father wants her to do it privately!

"Does the father want his daughter to intercede?" When Nan Qiao said this, he was a little weak.

Nalan Guangyao nodded, obviously helpless, "Try your best to save your grandmother, as for the Li family, she hurt you before, because my father won't force you to save her!" ”

"Then Li's, does my father really care?" Nan Qiao still couldn't help but ask.

Nalan Guangyao only said one sentence, "She? The Taiwei Mansion will not be left alone. ”

Nan Qiao thought that Nalan Guangyao was an honest and selfless person, but he didn't expect...

However, in the past few days that she has been in the house, whether it is Nalan Guangyao who is still protecting her, whether it is for the sake of the Yuan family's face or what, it is really good to her.

Nan Qiao couldn't bear to refuse, and finally said, "My daughter does her best!" ”

After returning to Zilanyuan, Nan Qiao summoned Jixiang and Ruyi to dress up for herself, and Ruyi asked curiously,

"Miss, it's so late, are you...?"

Nan Qiao looked at himself in the mirror, and the magnolia flower in the center of his eyebrows was particularly obvious, "Go to Pingding Palace." ”

Ruyi frowned slightly, "Miss, this is going to intercede for the old lady and the lady?" Did the master let the young lady go? ”

Those who know her are also wishful!

Nan Qiao nodded slightly, which was considered a tacit acquiescence.

After a while, Nan Qiao said again, "Jixiang, you go and get a pair of scissors." ”

Jixiang was taken aback, "Miss, what do you want scissors for?" ”

Nan Qiao raised his eyes slightly, looked at the auspiciousness in his glasses, and said, "Don't worry, I just looked at this magnolia flower and wanted to cut a few strands of hair to cover my forehead!" ”

Jixiang breathed a sigh of relief and silently turned around to find scissors.

Ruyi said while grooming Nan Qiao, "Since Miss doesn't like King Pingding, why do you have to force yourself to please him?" What's more, the old lady has embarrassed you many times, so don't save it! According to the slave maid, your dead son His Royal Highness took a turn there, and when he came back, he told the lord that you had been there, but the king of Pingding did not let go, and you couldn't do anything, so that the lord would not force you to go. ”

Nan Qiao was silent.

After a while, Jixiang brought the scissors.

Nan Qiao cut her bangs in front of the bronze mirror, the heavy bangs just covered the magnolia flower, she was not very old and looked younger at the moment, covering the original girlish temperament, adding a bit of beauty and liveliness, but that face, but with a sad face that could not be dissipated.

Ji Xiang praised on the side, "Miss is really stunning, how beautiful it is, after this hair is cut, I don't know that Miss Fangling is only twelve years old!" ”

Ruyi echoed, "Yes, Miss is beautiful no matter what." ”

Women are honored for those who please themselves, but why did Nan Qiao look at the face in the mirror, a trace of disgust flashed in her eyes, she sometimes wondered, if she didn't have such a look, would Ji Wuyu stay away from her?

To pacify the palace, the carriage slowly stopped at the door, and Nan Qiao and Ruyi got down from above.

Before entering, Ruyi pulled the corner of Nan Qiao's sleeve, "Miss, you really think about it, in case the king of pacifying wants you..."

Nan Qiao opened his mouth slightly, "Don't worry, I also have a bottom line, I will do my best in this matter, whether it succeeds or not, it depends on his mood, doesn't it!" ”

Ruyi nodded, "Okay!" ”

Entering the Pingding Palace, this time it was the palace guards who led the way, unlike in the past, the palace was no longer dark, and there was a faint lantern in a few places.

At the moment, the direction of going is the path in the study, and as soon as he arrived in the front yard, Ruyi was stopped by the guards, and only Nan Qiao was allowed to go in.

Inside the house, Ji Wuyu was tracing a topographic map in the faint candlelight.

Nan Qiao stood at the door and knocked on the door.

Ji Wuyu raised his head and looked at the girl at the door, a subtle look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

The next second, he came back to his senses, "Here, come in!" ”

After saying that, he lowered his head again and began to draw the unfinished painting.

Nan Qiao walked in slowly, the ink in the house was striking, and she wanted to talk straight to the point about the purpose of this visit, but when she glanced down at the painting on the bookcase, she was attracted by the topographic map he had drawn.

"How?" He asked suddenly.

Nan Qiao withdrew his gaze and asked uncertainly, "Lord Wang, this is the Chang'an City that was painted?" ”

The corners of his mouth rose slightly, and his eyes lifted, "Well, come and take a closer look." ”

Nan Qiao saluted and walked over with his head slightly bowed.

I saw Ji Wuyu pick up his pen and draw a circle on a road in the city, "Next month, the emperor will go to Huguo Temple to worship the queen mother, and this king will arrange for the emperor's team to go here!" ”

Nan Qiao's slightly drooping eyelashes raised slightly, and the next second she lowered her eyes and pretended not to understand and said,

"The courtiers don't understand very well!"

He explained in a gentle tone and patiently, "Recently, the city of Chang'an has not been peaceful, the emperor worships the first queen mother, and avoids encountering some assassins on the way, so in order to ensure the safety of the emperor, this king will arrange for the fake emperor and the ministers to take this big official road!" ”

"I see, it's just a little girl of the courtier, I really don't know much about this, the prince doesn't have to say too much to the courtier!"

Nan Qiao didn't know what Ji Wuyu's move meant, which always made her feel a little apprehensive.
