"What does that mean?"

Others leaned over and pricked up their ears to listen.

The man was probably really afraid of being heard, so he leaned on the table and looked around left and right, but he hesitated for a long time, until his friend urged him again and again, and he quickly muttered a few words.

"Really!?"

I didn't know I heard it, but the man exclaimed, his face full of fear.

"Don't scream!" The man was in a hurry, and hurriedly made a boo gesture, "This is also what I heard back, I don't know if it's true!" Don't talk about it all over the place! ”

The man realized that this was the lobby of the restaurant and immediately covered his mouth. After a while, he asked his friend in shock, "If your news is true, won't our Great Xia Kingdom suffer?" ”

"It's not that easy. I am a big country in Great Xia, how can I be invaded by foreign enemies so easily? It's just one less general......" he sighed and didn't continue.

The friend also knew what he meant, and sighed.

It was inconvenient to talk about these things here, so they called Xiao Er and started ordering.

Su Liuye sat next to them, not squinting the whole time, but taking in their conversation.

When she heard that there was an invasion from outside the border, she couldn't help but tremble in her heart, she didn't expect Leng Buding to hear these news.

Several small countries around the Great Xia Kingdom have been recovered, and now the biggest enemy is the barbarians on the grassland. The barbarians are brave and good at fighting, and all of them are masters of riding and archery.

The barbarians coveted the richness of the Great Xia Kingdom, and invaded the Great Xia Kingdom countless times over the years, the most serious one was to break through seven cities in a row within half a year, and almost entered the capital, but fortunately, the two young generals of the Great Xia Kingdom went deep into the enemy camp, captured the leader of the barbarians, and burned the granary to force them back.

But the barbarians have never given up on invading the Xia Kingdom, and they have been preparing to move all these years.

As far as Su Liuye knew, General Qin Shiming was poisoned and injured because he was injured against the barbarians.

At the beginning, it was said that he had to find a hot spring to detoxify, but now that more than half a year has passed, I believe that General Qin's injuries have healed, and he will probably return to the border long ago.

It's just that I heard from them that there was another young general who fought against foreign enemies with General Qin back then, and that person seemed to have been driven out of the capital. With one less person, General Qin will also have pressure against the enemy, right?

Su Liuye's eyes flickered, and she looked back at the people behind her slightly, thinking about whether to ask them, after all, she and General Qin knew each other, and she didn't want General Qin to have an accident. Second, General Qin is a hero who defends the country, and Su Liuye also wants to know more about it.

But there are many people here, and the news of the invasion from other places has not spread in the city, and it is estimated that someone deliberately suppressed the news. If she asks here, I'm afraid it will spread the word.

Thinking of this, Su Liuye suppressed the thoughts in her heart, ordered some snacks with Qin Lian, and waited for Uncle Zhou and them to come back.

Today's streets are indeed lively, especially on the way to Lingyuan Temple, where people are holding prayer incense candles.

Xiao Wudao, "This is the custom of the city every year for the New Year, and you have to go to Lingyuan Temple to pray for peace and bless everything well in the coming year." Mrs. Chu, let's go and have a look tomorrow, I'm afraid it's too late today, and we have to go up the mountain early in the morning to come back before evening. ”

"Worship?"

Qin Lian was a little interested.

When they came to the capital, they were either busy opening their shops or couldn't go out because of the snow. It's rare to have a sunny day these days, and it would be a waste if you didn't have a good time.

It's just - Qin Lian thought of the person who followed Su Liuye that night, her face showed worry, and she hesitated, "We still ......"

"Let's go check it out."

Su Liuye interrupted her and motioned for her to look over the mountain road.

A sumptuous carriage was coming down from there, decorated with rare items such as amber and agate, and a dozen or so guards were following on either side.

With such a big posture, at a glance, you can see that the owner of the carriage is definitely not an ordinary person.

"Whose carriage is this?"

"Don't you know? This is the carriage of the Second Prince's Mansion! Tomorrow, the people of the Five Princes Mansion will also go to the Yuanling Temple, and if you are lucky, you can meet the people of the Royal Mansion on the mountain and ask for a red envelope. ”

"Okay, okay! Then we'll come back tomorrow. ”

Two people happened to be passing by.

Hearing their conversation, Su Liuye and Qin Lian glanced at each other, with solemnity in their eyes.

Su Liuye pondered and lowered her voice, "Lianlian, I want to come over tomorrow to have a look, maybe I can see the fifth princess." ”

"Aliu, what do you want to do?"

Qin Lian was shocked, and hurriedly pulled her and whispered, "Don't come nonsense, she is also a princess!" We have no evidence, and even if we run over to testify against her, she won't admit it! ”

"I'm not that stupid."

Su Liuye said with a smile, "I just wanted to go over and take a look, but now we just guess that the person who did it is the fifth princess, and it is not so simple to find evidence, it is better to go over and take a look." ”

The fifth princess stayed in the palace almost all the time, and in such a place, Su Liuye couldn't go casually, and it was even more difficult to find evidence from the fifth princess.

She can't be so passive all the time, she might as well take this opportunity to go over and have a look. If you don't go this time, I don't know when I'll be able to meet the five princesses again next time.

This is a rare opportunity.

"But won't she recognize us?" Qin Lian was still worried, she was still wary of the fifth princess.

The man was not a good person at first glance, and if she saw it, she didn't know what she would do.

"It's okay, we'll just take a look from afar, and there won't be a problem."

Su Liuye has already decided.

Qin Lian didn't say much when she saw this, she just said that she would come with Su Liuye tomorrow.

A few people walked around the neighborhood and then went back, and although the night was very cold and windy, there was no snow at all.

Early the next morning, Xiao Wu took them to Lingyuan Temple, but Zhou Bo didn't come with him because he had other things to do.

Lingyuan Mountain is not high, but because there are many stairs, it will take a lot of time to go up all the way. When the sun was fully rising, Su Liuye and the others finally arrived at Lingyuan Temple.

Lingyuan Temple is a national temple, and it is very majesticly renovated, and at a glance it looks like a palace located in the mountains.

Lingyuan Temple is divided into two courtyards, front and back.

The front yard is for the people to pray for, and the back is for the royal family to enter and exit, and there is a large lotus pond in the middle. In winter, all the lotus flowers wither, and the pond surface freezes, which is also a unique scenery.

Su Liuye saw a Buddha statue several feet high in the main hall in the front yard, the surface was gilded, and it was very luxurious to look at the golden light.

She bought incense and candles with a few people, knelt in front of the Buddha statue to worship the Buddha sincerely, and donated some incense money.

Seeing that Qin Lian was still worshipping the Buddha over there, she didn't bother, and went outside to wait first.
