Chapter 3

early summer
"Preach the Queen Mother's decree, and announce that the holy monk will enter the palace to give lectures to Ai's family." A gray-haired eunuch read in a sharp voice.

"Amitabha!" The presiding officer chanted a dharma name and put his hands together in eleven salutes.

Holding the Buddhist beads, the host glanced at Shen Yuan, who was dressed in the clothes of a lay disciple, and said to the father-in-law with a troubled expression: "Mr. , the old monk went there on behalf of the younger brother, and pleaded guilty to the Queen Mother."

"What?" Director Li exclaimed, unable to believe it, what did he hear?
"Amitabha! The younger brother has already returned to secular life." The host had no choice but to chant the Buddha's name and repeated it again.

"The host knows what he's talking about!" Director Li said with a grim expression.

"Of course I know!" the host said calmly.

"Now that you know it, does the host know that the Holy Buddha Temple is a royal temple? The holy monks don't just belong to the Holy Buddha Temple?"

"Amitabha, although the Holy Buddha Temple is a royal temple, the old monk can handle things in the temple by himself."

"Huh!" Director Li took a deep breath, glanced at the confident host, and then at the expressionless holy monk behind the host, feeling a little headache.

"Empress Dowager Yizhi, the presiding officer should take the holy monk to the palace to explain to the queen mother, our family can't afford it." Mr. Li said with a grim expression, the meaning in the words was very clear, people must be brought back to the palace, if If you can't bring it back, you will have to take extraordinary measures.

"It's natural!" The host replied calmly, not afraid of the threat from the chief eunuch.

"In that case, the carriage is already waiting outside, please let the holy monk go with our house." The eunuch looked respectfully, but looked at Shen Yuan behind the host with a defensive look in his pupils and said.

"Please wait a moment, the benefactor. The poor monk will pick up some classics and give them to the Queen Mother."

"Okay, host, hurry up, the empress dowager is still waiting."

"Amitabha, thank you Lord"

"Wait!" Manager Li looked at Shen Yuan and turned around and immediately called out to stop the two of them.

The host looked at Manager Li indifferently.

Director Li looked as usual, and said respectfully: "You don't need to choose too many scriptures, just preside over it, and the holy monk still doesn't have to go."

The figure of the guard behind him moved slightly towards Shen Yuan, forming a faint siege.

The host had no choice but to nod, and went to the Sutra Pavilion alone.

Shen Yuan followed the host and brought Hui Yuan into the luxurious white royal carriage.

Sitting in the carriage, Shen Yuan's complexion was a bit complicated. Hui Yuan was born with a disability and could not speak. He is a person who has attained the Tao of Vajra Buddha in the Holy Buddha Temple.

The luxurious carriage drove slowly down the mountain, and when it reached the foot of the mountain, Shen Yuan slightly lifted the curtain to look out.

"Junior Brother, what are you looking at?" The host looked suspiciously at the calm-faced Junior Brother, but he knew that Shen Yuan liked to be quiet, and his heart would definitely not be as calm as his face at this time, otherwise he should be meditating at this time, and Not lifting the curtains and looking around.

At the same time, the luxurious pink carriage at the foot of the mountain was galloped by a horse with jet-black and soft fur with a little white hair mixed in. Behind it was a group of men in black chasing and killing, and the guards suffered heavy casualties.

In the carriage, Princess Ningxuan grabbed the carriage with a pale face, while her maid Forsythia, with a pale face, tried hard to drive the carriage and escape.

Ning Xuan never imagined that this kind of thing would happen, and if she dared to intercept and kill the current princess in broad daylight, would this group of people be sent by the enemy country?

Seeing that the intercepted guards were all dead and there was no way ahead, the maid shouted anxiously: "Princess, what should I do? There is a cliff ahead!"

"Forsythia! Are you afraid?" Ning Xuan knew that she could die happily if she jumped down, but if she fell into the hands of this group of people, she might only end up worse than death.

Lianqiao looked at the cliff in front of her and understood what the princess meant.

"Princess, Lianqiao is not afraid! If there is an afterlife, Lianqiao is still willing to serve the princess."

Lian Qiao drove the carriage towards the cliff without knowing death, and then she let go of the reins and turned around to protect Princess Ning Xuan with her petite body.

The carriage rushed down the cliff and fell straight down. It was about to land, when a white figure suddenly appeared under the carriage, looking so small.The carriage exploded, and the white figure lifted the two people in the carriage to the ground slowly.

Feeling being caught by the back collar, smelling the familiar scent of cold sandalwood, a hint of sweetness appeared in his eyes, and he looked up in surprise to see a familiar and handsome face. Princess Ning Xuan's eyes were full of joy.

Shen Yuan put the two down, and Lian Qiao immediately supported Princess Ning Xuan to sit down.

Shen Yuan checked the two of them up and down with indifferent eyes, and found that they were just frightened and not injured, and clasped his hands together: "Amitabha, what an offense, I hope the benefactor will forgive me!"

Seeing Shen Yuan's series of actions, the sweetness and happiness in Ning Xuan's eyes almost overflowed. Hearing what Shen Yuan said, she immediately shook her head and said, "Shen Yuan! Thank you for coming to save me. If it weren't for you, we I am afraid……"

Ning Xuan looked at the bloodstains and the messy carriage beside her, and felt a wave of fear in her heart. At this moment, her face was pale, her body was sweating profusely, and her legs were weak.

Lian Qiao also hurriedly said, "Thank you, Holy Monk, for saving me!"

Shen Yuan followed Ning Xuan's line of sight, and what he saw was the horse that had been smashed into a pulp, leaving scarlet blood on the ground and the smashed carriage, his pretty brows frowned slightly.

Shen Yuan looked up at the cliff, and said to the two: "Two benefactors, take a break, the poor monk will find a rope to pull the two benefactors up."

Ning Xuan nodded immediately.

Shen Yuan didn't say anything anymore, and immediately used lightness kung fu, stepped on the protruding stones on the cliff with a few vigorous steps, and climbed to the cliff.

In order to show respect for the holy monk, the royal family arranged for a team of soldiers to guard it, which came in handy at this moment.

When Shen Yuan came to the cliff, he saw the dead bodies all over the place, clasped his hands together, his eyes were serene and holy: "Amitabha, you are so good."

Manager Li relaxed a little when he saw Shen Yuan's anxious expression, and immediately came up to meet him.

Shen Yuan looked at the anxious father-in-law standing beside him and said, "Princess Thirteen is under the cliff!"

As soon as the father-in-law heard this, he immediately ordered to go down, and soon two generals put down the rope to rescue the princess.

As soon as Princess Ningxuan returned to the cliff, she immediately saw Shen Yuan sitting cross-legged among the dead bodies (in fact, the host in red cassock was in front, and Shen Yuan was half a step behind the host, but someone automatically ignored the host in front).At this time, Shen Yuan was rolling the Buddha beads with his left hand, and his right hand was standing upright, chanting words in his mouth to save the dead.

Suddenly, Princess Ningxuan's eyes froze, and she saw that the clothes on Shen Yuan's left forearm were cut and blood soaked the monk's robe.Immediately, he anxiously took a few steps forward but staggered a little due to his weakness.

Ning Xuan stopped and looked at Shen Yuan, not daring to disturb him.Immediately after Shen Yuan got up, she walked over, disregarding the dead bodies, carefully pulled her injured forearm, and said distressedly: "You are injured!"

Shen Yuan took a step back and broke away from Princess Ning Xuan's inspection: "Amitabha, thank you benefactor for your concern, the poor monk is fine."

The spark in Princess Ning Xuan's eyes went out a little, and she immediately ordered: "Go back to the palace immediately!"
