The old goes, the new comes.

Before the officials in the Qingguo court had time to sigh at the secret departure of Prime Minister Lin Ruofu, there were many new faces in the bright Taiqing Palace, and His Majesty the Emperor had achieved the goal of disturbing a pool of spring water.

At the moment, the holy scroll is naturally His Royal Highness the Great Prince, who has just returned to Beijing and has been crowned king.

At the same time, the marriage between His Royal Highness the Second Prince and the Ye family was also put on the agenda.

No wonder many people in the court secretly mourned for Lu Ze, the prince of the East Palace, for a while, the sensational wedding last year is still vivid today, everyone thought that the road of the East Palace would go smoothly in the future, but they didn't expect it to become the current situation in an instant.

It's just that Lu Ze is not at all what everyone imagined.

He didn't worry about the affairs of the eldest prince and the second prince at all.

But he felt very troublesome about Li Yunrui, who was going to return to Kyoto soon, and always felt that this crazy woman had not been away for long, and she was about to come back in the blink of an eye.

"Husband."

"This time the Hanging Temple Ancestor Festival, Ling'er should also go, right?"

In the face of Wan'er's inquiry, Lu Ze nodded: "I hold an ancestral sacrifice every three years for the royal family, but at the moment, the royal family is not prosperous, so some royal in-laws and close clans will be invited to participate in the festival."

In the first ten years of Wan'er's life, most of the time was spent in the Royal Annex.

In addition, Emperor Qing deliberately concealed Wan'er's identity before, so she has not participated in the ancestral sacrifice so far, and she knows nothing about some rules.

According to the practice of previous years, the Ye family was naturally on the list of participants in the ancestral sacrifice.

Now among the military forces in the Qingguo court, only the emerging Ye family can slightly fight against the Qin family, which has been powerful in Qingguo for a long time.

It's just that last time there was an accident in the palace, Ouchi's deputy commander Gong Dian was kicked out of Kyoto because of this incident, and this martial arts master who was trained by the Ye family with great effort was forced to leave the position of the incomparably upstart, which was definitely a great loss for the Ye family.

The Qin family...

Lu Ze silently thought that this old family, which had a high status in the Privy Council, was a big chess piece on the chessboard in the capital behind, but this chess piece was closely watched by Emperor Qing and Chen Pingping, and it had to be operated carefully.

Lu Ze thought for a long time.

Then his face became extremely distressed.

Because Li Yunrui seems to be going back to Kyoto soon, the Queen Mother has made a lot of efforts on Emperor Qing's side, and Lin Ruofu has returned to her hometown, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess will return to Kyoto in less than half a year.

Fortunately, if he is really a little prince, many people may not be able to sleep well.

"We... Let's go back."

"Mother, she may still not want to see me, maybe we don't have the fate of mother and daughter in this life."

On the car at the west gate, Lin Wan'er slowly lowered the curtains in the carriage, watching the car gradually disappear from view, she sighed heavily, turned to a smile, and said to Lu Ze beside her: "If there is any conflict between you and your mother in the future, you don't have to take into account my feelings, since I married into the East Palace, I should have considered you for the sake of the house."

Lin Wan'er stared at Lu Ze, her face blooming with a different brilliance.

The man beside her has followed all her wishes as much as possible, but Wan'er, who was born in the royal family, knows that the East Palace is by no means as luxurious as a discerning person seems, and the thoughts of the emperor's uncle in the palace are unpredictable.

Lu Ze spoke softly and said a good word.

"Let's go home."

.......

Li Yunrui's return to Beijing did not cause any waves, in Kyoto, where the situation has changed so much, the return of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess to Beijing only made the situation more chaotic, and the second prince Li Chengze was ecstatic.

The time quietly entered May.

The weather gradually became warmer, the sun overhead scorched the earth wantonly, and the officials of the Ministry of Rites meticulously prepared for the relevant matters related to the ancestor worship of the Hanging Temple, and the forbidden army also began to block and control the Hanging Temple ten years in advance.

Lu Ze originally didn't want Wan'er to go to the Hanging Temple.

Although the journey back and forth is not long, she still has a big belly after all, and it is inconvenient to bump back and forth.

What's more important is that Lu Ze knows that this trip to the Hanging Temple may not be very peaceful, and the treacherous situation in Kyoto will have a small collision at this ancestral sacrifice, of course Lu Ze can protect Wan'er, but he doesn't want her to be affected by a little bit of wind and grass.

"Oops."

"The imperial doctors all said that I have too much tonic for the delicacies of the mountains and seas now, and I should move around more."

"There is also the fact that I want to take advantage of this ancestral sacrifice to meet Ling'er, now it is inconvenient for me to go to the Ye family to find her, and it is even more inconvenient for her to come to the East Palace to find me, I have never been to the Hanging Temple so old, it is said that the temple is very grandly repaired, even better than the Qing Temple."

Lu Ze had no choice but to agree to Wan'er's travel request.

The corners of the latter's mouth raised, and she stroked her round belly with pleasure and gentleness, although she was already a young woman, but the woman's temperament did not completely change with marriage, but it was like Juanjuan flowing water in her heart, only open to her beloved.

What Wan'er didn't know was that since she was pregnant, Lu Ze had silently hidden the silly girl by her side.

In this world, people who can hurt her, even if they lose their thoughts to hurt her, will be clearly detected.

"Hanging Temple..."

"Chen Pingping, that old dog should be going to do it..."

......

On May 17, the ancestral sacrifice was suspended.

The carriage of the East Palace passed through the heavy and heavy guards at the foot of the mountain, and the Ouchi guards and the Kyoto Forbidden Army looked at everyone who got off the carriage with sharp eyes, Lu Ze carefully helped Wan'er get out of the carriage, and his flat eyes swept around.

"Meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Lu Ze waved his hand, and then walked towards the true destination not far away with Wan'er.

First, after walking up the path next to the autumn stream for a while, I turned past a waterfall with a raging waterfall, and suddenly saw a magnificent temple appear in front of me, carved into the cliff like a hanging in the air.

When Wan'er saw Lushan's true face, she couldn't help covering her mouth and exclaimed.

Manpower is better than heaven!

The hanging temple built next to the mountain looks like a layer of stickers, leaning on the wooden pillars standing in the mountains, this inverted triangular mode of architecture is like a miracle today, the breeze blows on the cheeks, people can't help but have a thousand feelings in the heart.

Lu Ze also nodded, this era can create a temple like the Hanging Temple

It's not easy.

It is rumored that the Hanging Temple was the first temple in Gyeongguk.

The entire temple was built by ascetics who believed in the temple, and it took a hundred years to proclaim the greatness of the temple, inherit the supreme faith, and exhort the people of the world to be good.

The temple held a very high status in the hearts of the people.

Legend has it that the temple in the far north of the world is unaware of the world, but many monsoon changes on this continent are in the hands of the temple, and the royal rulers use the temple to consolidate their dominance, the temple has become a symbol of the gods, and the world sincerely serves and does good deeds throughout their lives.

Under the temple, there are already powerful figures of Qingguo.

The arrival of Lu Ze and Wan'er caused the scattered people to move their steps in unison and come here to salute the couple.

No matter what happened to the eldest prince and the second prince, at least for the moment, Lu Ze was still the lord of the East Palace and the future emperor, and there was also a pregnant Wan'er, so everyone's attitude was naturally extremely respectful, and Lu Ze returned the salute one by one.

"Your Majesty, the eldest princess, and Prince Jing have all arrived."

Someone whispered a reminder to Lu Ze.

Lu Ze raised his eyes and could vaguely see that on the top floor of the Hanging Temple, there was a man dressed in bright yellow clothes, and there were two people dressed in white and black around him, and the most powerful people in Kyoto were on it.

Except for the old lame.

Lu Ze, who was troubled by evil taste, thought silently, Chen Pingping, that old guy, had definitely not been to the Hanging Temple in recent years.

At this time, Lu Ze naturally had no intention of going up, and he usually had to be summoned by His Majesty.

He simply took Wan'er to watch the flowers that were in full bloom, and no one came to disturb them at this time.

"I just didn't feel it down there."

"After climbing up, I can enjoy it again, the scenery of the Hanging Temple is really good."

Although you haven't reached the top yet, you can see the gorgeous summer scenery when you look down.

Lu Ze looked into the distance and nodded, this is in the future world without thirty yuan ticket money will definitely not be able to enter.

Wan'er, who was pregnant, couldn't help squinting her eyes in the warm breeze, and the curvature of the corners of her mouth proved that she was in a good mood at the moment.

Climb high and look far away, relaxed and happy.

Wan'er turned her head and smiled at Lu Ze, "If only I could fly down!"

Lu Ze nodded, and replied matter-of-factly, "Hmm... Maybe it will be in the future."

It didn't take long for a lot of people to come up under the temple, and Wan'er finally saw Ye Ling'er who was in her heart.

"Meet His Highness the Prince."

"Meet..."

Ye Ling'er looked a little uneasy.

Wan'er, who was originally elated, was just about to speak, but she didn't know what to say, so she just sighed softly.

Lu Ze knows why Ye Ling'er looks like this, she will soon marry the second prince, Lu Ze and Li Chengze seem to be brothers, friends and brothers, but all kinds of moves in private are the kind of blood that seals the throat, Ye Ling'er, as Ye Chong's daughter, naturally knows all kinds of blood behind the royal family.

Wan'er took the initiative to step forward and hold Ye Ling'er's hand.

I saw two people holding hands, and after whispering a lot of words, their eyes quickly turned red.

Lu Ze sighed slightly.

It didn't take long for two little eunuchs to come out of the temple: "Your Highness and the county lord go up."

In the hanging temple, not only the three brothers and sisters of Emperor Qing were there, but also the queen mother, the queen and many concubines of the harem also arrived in the temple, Lu Ze and Wan'er went up the narrow stairs to the top floor of the temple, and Wan'er was announced by the queen mother as soon as she went up.

"Sons, see father."

Lu Ze went to the main pavilion.

In front of the railing, Emperor Qing, who was looking at the great country with his hands behind his back, nodded silently.

Lu Ze then saluted with the eldest princess on the side and Prince Jing, this was the first time Lu Ze saw her after Li Yunrui returned to Beijing, Lu Ze looked at her with a normal expression, only Jiao

Her Royal Highness, the extremely weak eldest princess, smiled lightly at Lu Ze.

The attic on the top floor of the Hanging Temple is very large.

Although there are not many heirs of the royal family, they all look a bit lively after they are all gathered together.

Lu Ze found that he and Wan'er were the latest couple to come, and the rest of the princes came here early, the eldest prince was heroic and strong, the second prince was gentle as jade, and the third prince who served as the best man at his wedding.

The temple is lively.

The temple is equally lively.

Billowing smoke suddenly began to ignite from the bottom of the Hanging Temple, when the guards found out that the fire had gradually ignited, the news of the fire was quickly spread to the top floor, and the chief eunuch Hong Sizhen escorted the Queen Mother and her party to retreat first.

When she was about to go downstairs, Wan'er looked at Lu Ze with a worried face.

Lu Ze gave her a reassuring look, the assassination of the Hanging Temple still happened as always.

Lu Ze looked at Emperor Qing, His Majesty the Emperor was calmly continuing to stand in front of the railing, as if he was not worried about his safety at all, and even showed a little ridicule to the people at the top who were like great enemies.

At this moment, in addition to Emperor Qing, only Lu Ze and a few princes were left on the top floor, and Prince Jing did not go down with him at this time, more than a dozen guards with knives and a few little eunuchs serving beside him, looking nervous and ready to face the sudden change of the situation.

"Father, please retire for the time being."

The eldest prince ignored the etiquette and directly stepped forward and began to persuade Emperor Qing to go downstairs first.

Next is Emperor Qing's fork loading link, he doesn't care about such a small thing at all, and the temperament of the fork highlights the emperor's conceit, so even if King Jing stepped forward to persuade a few words, it didn't work.

Lu Ze smiled secretly in his heart.

This fire was lit by Emperor Qing.

However, the series of assassinations that followed was not expected by him.

"Always tempting others."

"I'll test you later."

"Qingguo Grand Stage, if you want to kill, come quickly!"

Lu Ze felt that he was a filial child.
