The reborn sweet girl always wants to escape, but the abstinent prince hugs her and coaxes her!

Shaohua Temple is the most popular temple around the capital.

The main reason is that the former Empress Dowager once worshiped Buddha here.

Therefore, last year's infamous incident of Weiyuan Hou Shizi desecrating the Buddhist Holy Land did not cause much harm to Shaohua Nunnery.

The side rooms in the nunnery can be used by pilgrims to stay or do some religious work. When Mu Rong dismounted in front of the mountain gate, it was the time when the pilgrims were coming down the mountain the day before. During the peak hour of pilgrims going up the mountain that day, he appeared here as a man, which was particularly abrupt, attracting all the female relatives. Sideways glance.

The little nun who was greeting the pilgrims in front of the mountain gate saw that Mu Rong's clothes were extraordinary and knew that he was not an ordinary person, so she hurried back to report.

Not long after, the host came out.

Although this was the first time Mu Rong had set foot here as an adult, the abbot recognized him at a glance.

"Amitabha, this is the first time this old nun has seen the Marquis since Princess Rongyang was martyred on the battlefield. I didn't expect that the young man in the past would be so handsome and majestic now, quite similar to the demeanor of his predecessor, Marquis Weiyuan." The abbot clasped his hands together. .

When Mu Rong was a boy, he came here with his mother, Princess Rongyang, to pray for the late Empress Dowager. Therefore, he met the abbot and when he mentioned the past, he returned the favor: "I haven't been here for more than ten years. I didn't expect you to still remember it." .”

While the abbot was speaking, he saw that Mu Rong's expression was as usual, and another person came today, presumably not as a first-grade military prince, so he felt a little relieved.

"I wonder if the Marquis has something important to do when he comes to Shaohua Nunnery?"

"I am here to pray for the empress and offer lamps. I wonder where the empress's lamps are. Could you please let me go and check it out?" Mu Rong asked.

The abbot's heart skipped a beat: "Is it because the empress has been acting inappropriately recently?"

When the emperor sent people to Shaohua Nunnery to pray for blessings and offer lamps, he had already said that it was to protect the health of the empress.

Therefore, she did not dare to neglect, and personally selected nuns who could be used to guard the lamp. Not long after this, why did she come to check on the lamp offering again...

It's about the Queen, how can this keep her from panicking?

But Mu Rong did not respond, just said: "I'd like to help the abbot lead the way."

This……

The abbot responded quickly and personally took Mu Rong to the nunnery where he offered lamps and prayed for the Queen.

The little nun serving the candles quickly came out and said, "I've seen the abbot."

Because Mu Rong was a man, she just glanced at him briefly and then lowered her head.

"How are the Queen's candles?" the abbot asked.

"Abbott, my dear nun dare not slack off. She has been taking good care of her. Everything is fine." The little nun bowed her head and replied.

Seeing the other party's reply, the stone in the abbot's heart completely fell.

She glanced at Mu Rong: "Master Hou, do you want to go in personally to check?"

"Yes." Mu Rong nodded and stepped into the nunnery.

Now that he is here, he naturally has to see it with his own eyes before he can rest assured.

This nunnery is dedicated to the royal family and nobles who are still alive. Therefore, compared with other nunneries, it is less dignified and more clear and elegant.

The lamps and candles used to pray for the Queen are enshrined in the middle of the nunnery.

The lamp oil was clear and contained no trace of impurities. The candle was burning brightly, exuding melting warmth, and the wick was also hot and red, showing no signs of being extinguished.

After looking at the oil lamp, Mu Rong looked around again.

In addition to the little nun who just answered, there are two other nuns of similar age in the nunnery, both of whom are busy with their own tasks, adding oil to the lamps and candles used for worship.

Seeing this, the abbot stepped forward and explained: "Shaohua Nunnery has been ordered by His Majesty to pray for blessings and provide lamps for the empress. Naturally, the poor nun did not dare to neglect, so he arranged for three people to take care of him here to ensure that there is always someone on duty in the nunnery to ensure safety..."

Mu Rong nodded when he heard the words: "Thank you, Abbot, I will truthfully reply to Your Majesty and the Queen after I return."

"Amitabha! Thank you so much, Lord Marquis."

After leaving the nunnery, Mu Rong did not leave. He carefully explored the front and rear courtyards, bushes, etc., and found nothing wrong.

The abbot was always by his side and did not dare to slack off.

She always felt that Mu Rong's visit today was a bit strange...

And Mu Rong is the same.

After spending half the morning, it was almost noon, and Mu Rong was about to say goodbye and go down the mountain.

Just when the abbot was about to see off the guests, he heard a commotion outside: "No! No! A pilgrim fell down the mountain!"

The abbot was so frightened that she didn't care to greet Mu Rong anymore, so she quickly led people towards the noisy place.

After Mu Rong hesitated for a moment, he lifted his heels.

……

Shaohua Nunnery is built on the mountainside and is located halfway up Shaohua Mountain.

On the back side of the temple is the road up the mountain, with cliffs on both sides. Few pilgrims go there.

When the abbot arrived with his people, many people had already gathered around him.

In the middle of the crowd, there was a pair of master and servant who were hiding their faces and crying bitterly. I think the person who fell down the mountain had something to do with them.

The abbot hurriedly stepped forward. When he saw the appearance of the master and servant, he was surprised: "Miss Cheng?"

These two people were Cheng Jintong, the granddaughter of the Minister of Rites, and her personal maid.

This is not the first time that Miss Cheng has come to Shaohua Nunnery. Normally, Shaohua Nunnery would arrange for a nun to accompany such a noble person, but today there is no one accompanying the master and servant.

Could it be that the one who fell down the mountain was actually a nun from the nunnery? !

The abbot frowned: "What happened?"

Cheng Jintong is just a teenage girl. She is a spoiled and pampered girl, but she has never encountered such a change.

She pointed down the mountain, trembling all over...

I couldn't help crying, and I couldn't even say a word.

Seeing her helpless look, Mu Rong frowned.

Looking at her accompanying girl: "You tell me."

"The lady's veil was blown outside the fence by the wind. There was... a girl helped the lady to pick it up, but who knew... who knew it fell down!" The girl also cried and her eyes turned red.

The abbot was shocked when he heard this: "The one who fell was not a nun in the nunnery, but a pilgrim?"

"Yes...exactly..." the girl stammered in reply, "She lives next door to our wing. She knew that the lady was coming here for a spring outing, so she came with her..."

The abbot panicked. If the person who fell off the cliff was an ordinary nun, even if something happened, it would be a matter within Shaohua Nunnery and there would be no serious problem.

But if a pilgrim falls to his death here, I am afraid that the matter will be spread out soon, not to mention that it is the time to pray for the Queen and the Queen. If it makes a big fuss, I am afraid that it will anger His Majesty, and then the Emperor will be furious... I'm afraid Shaohua'an is going to be in trouble!

Just when the abbot was panicking, Mu Rong had climbed out of the fence and leaned down the mountain to look down.

The mountain forest is dense, and among the shadowy branches and leaves, a light pink dress is looming.

"The person was blocked by branches halfway up the mountain and did not fall down the mountain. He should still be alive."

Mu Rong's voice was cold, but in the abbot's ears, it was like the sound of nature.

People are not dead!
