Mountains and rivers pray for peace

Chapter 113
There were a lot of discussions outside, but the Zen room in the westernmost corner of Nanyuan was still shrouded in silence.Several vegetarian dishes were placed on the square table in the middle of the Zen room, which made people's appetites whet their appetites. However, Wang and Huo Xian had no intention of using their chopsticks. They were obviously waiting for Huo Qi to come back and eat together.

Mrs. Wang ordered someone to bring the charcoal stove over to warm up the food. Seeing Huo Xian's absent-minded look, she asked, "Why do you look so distraught today? Are you worried about your sister?"

Huo Xian came back to his senses and forced a smile: "Yes, after all, this is my first time meeting the Queen Mother."

Mrs. Wang couldn't help but laugh when she saw Huo Xian, who had always had a calm expression, showing a rare worried look: "Don't you still know your sister's temperament? She is a steady person. She is just chatting with the Queen Mother. Nothing messed up."

Huo Xian pursed his lips and nodded, but the fear in his heart was not soothed by Wang's words, because what he was really worried about was whether the Queen Mother Pei would question Huo Qi.

There has never been a real coincidence in the world. Today, first the beams of the main hall collapsed, and then the Jade Guanyin happened to be destroyed, and finally, the black account of Baotan Temple embezzling huge amounts of silver was dug up by following the vine.This series of tricks is a trap that Huo Qi has set up for Baotan Temple long ago.

On the night after he talked with Huo Qi, under Huo Qi's instruction, he began to secretly search for the whereabouts of Baotan Temple's real account books, from which he learned of Baotan Temple's tricks in temple repairs, and met him early. I went to the carpenters in Mount Miaotuo and investigated the whole story.

In the end, he and Huo Qi came up with a trick to use the collapse of the beam to involve corruption.He first changed the position of the fake account book and the real account book quietly, and then deliberately destroyed the beam on the head of Yu Guanyin at the consecration ceremony of the jade statue a few days ago, which made everything that happened today logical.

But even though he knew all the truth, when things really came to pass, he would be shocked in his heart.

Now that Jade Guanyin has been destroyed, Huixuan and Huineng are imprisoned in the Zen room. Emperor Xiaowen personally ordered to send Jin Yiwei to investigate. As long as the testimony of the shopkeeper of Hongtong Cabinet is obtained, Baotan Temple will be finished.Everything went smoothly. Logically speaking, the Jade Guanyin matter has come to an end.But his instinct for danger told him that this was just the calm before the storm, and the matter was far from over.

Huo Xian thought forward and backward, and felt that his brain was steaming like paste.At this moment, the boy brought by the family excitedly ran in from outside the hospital and announced that Lu Shanggong had sent Huo Qi back.

Wang Shi and Huo Xian quickly cheered up and got up to go to the courtyard to greet them. They saw Huo Qi and Aunt Lu walking side by side into the courtyard, followed by a few maidens who were in their prime.

Seeing that Huo Qi's expression was normal, Mrs. Wang let go of the stone in her heart, and quickly said to Aunt Lu: "How dare my little girl ask Auntie to escort her personally, it's really frustrating."

Aunt Lu supported Mr. Wang and greeted her with a smile, saying with a smile: "Mrs. Huo is very polite, this is all your servant's responsibility. The Queen Mother asked your servant to tell you that Miss Huo sacrificed her life to save her today. I am very grateful to her. It's just that today's treasure It is easy to follow the incense in the Tan Temple, so I have to wait until I return to the palace to reward, and please Madam Huo to take care of it."

Huo Xian didn't open his mouth to speak, and accidentally saw a white jade bracelet with the Eight Immortals pattern on Huo Qi's wrist that he had never seen before, and he couldn't help but feel relieved.No matter what happens afterwards, Empress Dowager Pei will always be more tolerant when she thinks about Huo Qi's achievements today.

Wang didn't even dare to say anything, and had a few polite words with Aunt Lu, and invited someone out of the yard, and then led Huo Qi into the house for dinner, and casually asked Huo Qi about interesting things he had seen and heard about Baotan Temple in the past few days.Huo Qi picked up some things about listening to the scriptures in the temple at night in the past few days. After the meal, the sky had completely darkened.

Wang originally wanted to let Huo Qi sleep together in her room, but Huo Qi refused to stay in Wang's room because he was too lazy to move.

Everyone knows that today's Baotan Temple seems to be peaceful, but in fact it is full of turmoil.Wang was worried, after all, the north and south gardens were not far apart, and it was not convenient for her to greet Huo Qi.But Huo Qi insisted: "Now the temple has been surrounded by three layers of inner guards and three layers outside, and outsiders are not allowed to enter. It is already very safe, mother don't have to worry."

Seeing that Huo Qi insisted on leaving, Wang had no choice but to compromise: "You kid is tougher than a cow. It's just that you don't want to sleep with me. Then let your elder brother take you back."

Even if Mrs. Wang didn't speak, Huo Xian still thought so in his heart, and immediately picked up the jacquard lantern in the room to send Huo Qi back.

The sky is getting dark. Baotan Temple is built on the mountain. The lush ancient trees block all the bright moonlight in the sky. The beautiful mountain scenery during the day becomes gloomy at night.

Walking on the road, Huo Xian felt that the atmosphere in the temple was inexplicably scary, but when he saw Huo Qi walking calmly, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Huo Qi was really no longer the ignorant little girl, and sometimes even acted better than him. This big brother has to be bold and straightforward.

However, Huo Qi was so young, but his mind was so heavy. He was devoting himself to the whole Ningguo government, so he would rather Huo Qi be more naive.However, in ten months, he will leave the capital and go back outside the Great Wall. If something happens, he will be beyond the reach of him outside the Great Wall. How can he protect Huo Qi?
Huo Xian thought for a long time before saying: "Sister, I always feel that there is a black hand behind Baotan Temple. I'm afraid this black hand is beyond the control of you and me. What happened today will be over. Remember not to get into trouble again. …”

Huo Qi couldn't help raising his eyebrows when he heard this. Huo Xian's guess was correct. There might really be a black hand behind Baotan Temple, but these black hands could not hurt her. Instead, they would only make the second prince dig his own grave.However, there are some things that Huo Xian cannot get his hands on. Seeing Huo Xian's worried look, Huo Qi raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Don't worry, brother, I won't teach myself to fall into other people's traps."

Huo Xian sighed and nodded reluctantly.When he arrived at the door of the Zen room, he gave a few more instructions until he saw Huo Qi enter the room with his own eyes, and stayed for a while before leaving.

When Huo Xian was staring at Huo Qi through the window lattice, Huo Qi was also staring at him behind a wall.When Huo Xian came out of the yard, Huo Qi turned around and was about to change his body and pretend to go out, but he saw a bunch of pear blossoms on the square table in the middle.The pure white pear blossoms stand quietly in the blue long-necked porcelain vase, and there is a faint fragrance in the air.

You see flowers in your eyes, but you see people in your heart.Huo Qi was stunned for a moment, but the image of Shen Yuning bending over to arrange flowers in front of the Empress Dowager Pei quickly flashed in his mind today, and he said softly: "The Zen courtyard is heavy, maybe it would be better to add some pear blossoms."

While thinking about it, Huo Qi slowly took out the Ming Di given to her by Shen Yuning from his sleeve.That day at Longyang Peak, when Shen Yuning handed Mingdi to her, he said that as long as Mingdi was released, his people would be found immediately.She was worried that something might happen, so she always carried it with her, but she never used it, not even that time when she was kidnapped by the second prince.But if Que Li accompanied her tonight, I'm afraid it wouldn't be safe enough. She needed to use Shen Yuning's power to achieve her goal.

Thinking of this, Huo Qi released Ming Di out of the window without hesitation. In the blink of an eye, Ming Di rose into the sky with a ray of fire.
