Chapter 69: Lingyin Temple

Yan Lingyue felt that she was about to be wrongfully killed.

It just so happened that at this time, Duan Minghong came back from inspecting the guards' rooms, and saw that Yan Lingyue's room door was still open, so he hurried over worried that something would happen.

"Haven't the Nine Emperor Princesses slept yet?" Duan Minghong knocked on the door.

Hearing Duan Minghong's voice, thinking that he was misunderstood and wronged again and again because of him, Yan Lingyue's anger came up. Strode to the door of the room and said to Duan Minghong, "Since General Duan and the Seventh Princess have a marriage contract, please stay away from me, don't let me be repeatedly pointed at and scolded." Yan Lingyue slammed the door shut.

Leaving Duan Minghong standing in place, his face was inexplicable.

"Miss is angry," Seeing that Yan Lingyue's face was red, Mama Li hurriedly poured a glass of water and handed it over. Although Yan Lingyue and Zhou Ziyu have been married, when there are no outsiders, Mama Li is still used to calling Miss, "Miss is really impulsive, no matter what, General Duan Shao is a general with real power, how can Miss yell at others like that?" ”

"As the saying goes, many friends, many paths. The Nine Emperors are gone, and Miss is now the time when she needs to be backed up the most," Mama Li said, "To say something about the old slave, General Duan is obviously interested in Miss, and Miss can take this opportunity to win over General Duan's heart." ”

Yan Lingyue, who didn't want to discuss this topic, hooked her lips and smiled at Mama Li, "I'm a little tired, let's rest first." ”

Mama Li sighed and locked the door again.

Closing the curtain, lying on the bed, looking at the dark room, Yan Lingyue felt uncomfortable, she knew that what Mama Li said was for her good, but how could she do that? Thinking of Zhou Ziyu's innocent and harmless face, Yan Lingyue was so heartbroken that she couldn't breathe.

This night, she dreamed of Zhou Ziyu again. She dreamed that Zhou Ziyu was back, and dreamed that Zhou Ziyu took her hand, took her to the lake, and took her shopping...... The next day, Yan Lingyue woke up with a smile.

But the clearer the scene in the dream, the lower her mood became when she woke up.

Compared to the freshness of the first day when they left the palace, everyone was tired when they hurried today. Even Queen Xiao was nestled in the carriage and didn't make much noise. Only the carriage where Concubine Hui and Zhou Xiangjun were still laughing from time to time.

Duan Minghong didn't sleep well all night because of Yan Lingyue's accusation last night, and when he was on the road the next day, he paid more attention to Yan Lingyue more often.

Seeing this, Zhou Xiangjun was about to stare Yan Lingyue's carriage out of the hole.

A group of female dependents were in a hurry, naturally not going anywhere, and when the group arrived at Lingshan Temple, the sky was dark. Master Lingyin, who had already received the holy decree, led the monks to wait at the gate of the temple.

King Zhou and Queen Xiao had dealings with Master Lingyin in the early years, and they were quite familiar with each other. Queen Xiao would come to Lingyin Temple every year to stay for a few days and discuss Buddhism with Master Lingyin.

Master Lingyin, who has always regarded Queen Xiao as a young friend who has forgotten his years, now sees that Queen Xiao has become crazy, and can't help but put his hands together and call "Amitabha".

Zhou Ziyu became a fool when he was a child, and he was finally raised, but he died young, and then Queen Xiao, who was a mother, also became a fool. How can it not be emotional!

I don't know if I subconsciously knew that this was the holy land of Buddhism, and Queen Xiao, who was still noisy from time to time on the road, became extremely quiet after coming to Lingyin Temple.

Master Lingyin led everyone directly to the fasting room in the backyard. After two days of traveling, everyone was tired, and after a simple meal, they all went back to their rooms to rest.

There was nothing to say all night, and when Yan Lingyue woke up the next day, Queen Xiao had already gone to the morning class with Master Lingyin. Because of her respect for Master Lingyin and her worries about her daughter's family affairs, Concubine Hui also dragged Zhou Xiangjun to follow Master Lingyin to worship the Buddha early in the morning.

It was Yan Lingyue, but it was forgotten. It just so happened that she didn't believe in Buddhism either, she was happy to be pure, and she heard that there was a peach orchard in the mountain behind the temple. In mid-July, the peaches are ripe.

It is said that in March every year, the most people come to Lingshan Temple to offer incense, and many of them are for the peach blossoms. In order to facilitate the pilgrims to play, a stone step was also built at the back gate of Lingshan Temple, which leads directly to the peach orchard in the back mountain.

Yan Lingyue simply ate some fasting, then took Mama Li out of the back door of Lingshan Temple and walked towards the back mountain. Along the way, I also met many monks from Lin San Temple cleaning up fallen leaves.

Mama Li, who was originally worried that it would be unsafe, was suddenly relieved.

Yan Lingyue, who had been bored in the palace all day, enjoyed the scenery in the mountains, and her steps were much lighter. Even Mama Li stretched her waist and sighed at the fresh air in the mountains.

After walking for about half a cup of tea, Yan Lingyue and Mama Li came to the legendary peach orchard.

As soon as the wooden fence was pushed open, you could see red peaches, and many monks were picking peaches with baskets on their backs. Since the pilgrims who come to Lingshan Temple to worship the Buddha will basically come to the peach forest to go around, the little monks are not surprised by Yan Lingyue's arrival. He also specially told Yan Lingyue that there was a well in front of him, and if he wanted to eat peaches, he could take them to the well to clean them.

Mama Li picked two big peaches and talked with the little monks, only then did she know that every year when the peaches were ripe, they would pick the peaches and give them to the farmers at the foot of the mountain.

Yan Lingyue, who came to Taoyuan for the first time, was very fresh, walking back and forth among the various peach trees. Mama Li thought that with so many monks here, nothing would happen, so she told Yan Lingyue that she would go to the side to wash a peach.

At this time, Mama Li didn't know that their young lady had already been targeted. As soon as she turned around and left, Yan Lingyue was covered by someone and swept away.

The peach trees are dense, and the green leaves of the peach trees obscure the view, and the monks who are busy picking peaches do not notice this.

When Mama Li washed the peaches and came back after talking to the monks, she found that her young lady was gone, Yan Lingyue had already been plundered out of the peach orchard and carried to the deep mountains.

"We have no grievances, why are you arresting me?" Facing the two men dressed as monks, Yan Lingyue moved her tied hands, her eyebrows furrowed.

One of the men with scars on his face touched Yan Lingyue's face and said to another man with a shorter stature, "Today, our brothers are blessed to be able to go to the woman of the Nine Emperor Princes!" ”

"Maybe it's still a chick, the Nine Emperors are a fool, do you know how to sleep with your daughter-in-law?" The diminutive man stared at Yan Lingyue's chest with squinting eyes, and he was about to drool, "Lao Tzu hasn't touched a woman for a long time, and I can finally have a good time today." As he spoke, he began to pull at his clothes.

Seeing the short man take off his coat, Yan Lingyue panicked, "Since you know my identity and dare to do this, aren't you afraid of having your head cut off?" ”

The two men looked at each other and laughed "haha". The man with the scar also leaned over to her neck and sniffed, which frightened Yan Lingyue and took two steps back.

The two men laughed again. The short man said, "Since we dare to make a move, we are naturally not afraid." ”

Yan Lingyue raised her eyebrows, "Who gave you such a big guts." ”

"Of course it's our master!" The man with the scar took off his clothes and walked towards Yan Lingyue.

Yan Lingyue, whose hands were tied, struggled to stand up, but was once again dragged to the ground.

With a "hiss", the dress was torn.

The man with the scar laughed lewdly, covering Yan Lingyue's body directly, and his hand also reached into her clothes. The unfamiliar aura made Yan Lingyue feel sick in her heart, and she arched her legs and hit the man's crotch fiercely.

The man with the scar roared in pain, clutched his crotch, and fell to the side.

The short man hurried to help, "Are you alright, boss?" Does it matter? ”

Yan Lingyue took the opportunity to get up and run.

"Stop, hurry up," the scarred man shouted with grinning teeth.

"I still want to run," the short man turned around and went to chase Yan Lingyue.

The mountains were full of stones, and there were potholes everywhere, Yan Lingyue's feet slipped, and she knelt directly on a stone. The pain in her knee almost made her cry.

But in such an instant, the short man chased after him, grabbed Yan Lingyue's arm, and raised his hand to slap him, "Cheap woman, it's really shameless." When the words fell, he dragged Yan Lingyue to a small stream, grabbed her head, and dipped it in the water.

The cold stream water poured into her mouth and ears, and Yan Lingyue felt that she was about to suffocate. I don't know if Mama Li found out that she was missing, why hasn't anyone come to look for her yet? Could it be that her little life is really going to be explained here today?

Seeing that Yan Lingyue was no longer struggling, the man with the scar hurriedly pulled the short man aside, "Don't really toss her to death." ”

The short man snorted coldly, tugged at Yan Lingyue's wet collar, and directly tore off the buttons. The man with the scar smiled, touched Yan Lingyue's waist, and reached out to take off her skirt.

At this moment, a cold cheer came from not far away. Before the two men could react, a white figure flashed and kicked them into the stream.

"The Nine Emperor Princesses? The Nine Emperor Princesses wake up? Looking at Yan Lingyue, who was lying on the shore and dying, Duan Minghong's heart was like a knife. Immediately took off his coat and covered Yan Lingyue's body.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the two men pulled their legs and prepared to flee.

Duan Minghong jumped up, kicked the two men again, picked up their clothes, and tied them to a tree.

Yan Lingyue, who had relieved her breath, coughed twice.

Duan Minghong almost rushed to Yan Lingyue's side, pulled out the dagger on his boots, and cut the rope that tied her hands, "Are you better?" ”

Yan Lingyue nodded.

Duan Minghong stopped her waist and hugged her.

"Y-What are you going to do?" Yan Lingyue, who was still a little afraid, was nervous.

Duan Minghong was distressed, and said softly, "Carry you back to the temple." ”

"What about them?" Yan Lingyue pointed to the two men who were still tied to the tree, "What if they run away?" ”
