Chapter 218 The Promise

Luo Yun nodded, "It's just that I don't have the skills to help you rebuild the Celestial Sect."

Su Jue smiled evilly: "That's not necessarily true. If you really want to repay me, then just promise to do one thing for me."

"what's up?"

"The time has not come yet. When the time comes, I will tell you again, but you can't refuse me when the time comes."

Facing Su Jue's overly bright eyes, Luo Yun suddenly had a feeling of being calculated, and subconsciously wanted to repent, but felt that it was not good, so he had to bite the bullet.

"As long as it's within my power, and it's not hurting nature."

Su Jue smiled brightly, "Don't worry, it's something you can do with ease."

The corner of Luo Yun's mouth twitched, why did he feel even more uneasy after hearing Su Jue's assurance.

The next day, Luo Yun and Ouyang Chen left Xia Guo one after another, heading towards their respective goals.

"Master, the young master has already left Yumen Pass."

"En." Ouyang Xiujie responded softly, turned around and sat in the sedan chair, and headed towards the palace.

After finishing the morning court, Ouyang Xiujie did not leave the palace as usual, but went to the royal study to face the saint.

"Ouyang Qing's family, this time Ouyang Chen is going to infiltrate Yan Kingdom alone, will you blame me for letting him take risks?"

In the imperial study room, Emperor Jing sat and stood with Ouyang Xiujie, the former probing gently.

Ouyang Xiujie said neither humble nor overbearing: "I don't dare. As a minister, Chen'er can share the worries of the Holy One. This is his blessing. Besides, I have confidence in him and believe that he will be able to complete the task and return."

Emperor Jing stretched out his hand to stroke his beard and said with a smile: "Father Tiger has no dogs. For many years, you have fought in the battlefield, protected your family and the country, and you are known as the general who has won the battle. Although your son did not join the army, he is witty and courageous. Xu'er is not like that." He has been praised less in front of me, which is one of the reasons why I put him on this mission."

Afterwards, the monarch and his ministers chatted a few more words before Ouyang Xiujie resigned and left.

After leaving the Imperial Study Room, Ouyang Xiujie was invited to meet again by Concubine Ming.

"Ouyang Erqing's family, you must help Xu'er this time."

As soon as they met, Concubine Ming complained to Ouyang Xiujie, saying that Zhu Xu was punished by Emperor Jing to go to Huguo Temple to lead him to practice. Let Ouyang Xiujie think of a way.

"My lady, don't worry. I just met the Holy Majesty. From his tone, he still loves the Second Prince very much. When the Holy Majesty calms down, he will naturally call the Second Prince back. Besides, those who go to the Huguo Temple to lead cultivation, There are several other princes, the Holy Majesty will never let them stay in Huguo Temple."

"That being said, I'm afraid that the Crown Prince will use some means to please His Majesty while Xu'er is away, and all our previous efforts will be in vain."

"Actually, there is a saying that I don't know whether I should say it or not."

"Go ahead."

"I don't think it's a bad thing for the second prince to go to Huguo Temple to practice. Before, His Highness took advantage of the matter of the seventh prince to pull the prince off the horse. As a result, the seventh prince came back unscathed. The Holy Majesty was already a little dissatisfied with this, and the prince was injured. His impression of His Highness was even worse.

Therefore, I think it would be better for His Highness to leave for a period of time, not only to calm the Holy One, but also to let the Holy Majesty see clearly the importance of His Highness?People, sometimes it's like that, you don't cherish the ones around you, and only feel that the other party is important when you are far away. "

Concubine Ming pondered for a moment, and then understood what Ouyang Xiujie meant.

"Ouyang Qing's family is right. We were a little impatient before, but the Holy Majesty was wary of us. Now that Xu'er stays away from the court for the time being, the Holy Majesty will no longer feel threatened. Naturally, he will remember Xu'er's good wishes." gone."

To put it bluntly, Emperor Jing felt that Zhu Xu and Concubine Ming were too powerful and threatened his imperial power, so he took advantage of the prince's assassination to suppress Zhu Xu.Not only Zhu Xu, but all the princes who made Emperor Jing feel threatened, he threw them to Huguo Temple this time.

Concubine Ming is not a stupid person, she was raised a little by Ouyang Xiujie, after that, she didn't bring up the matter of Zhu Xu's return, and her behavior was much more low-key than before.

Huguo Temple.

Zhu Xu raised his chopsticks and stared at the food in front of him with bitterness and hatred, but he couldn't put down the chopsticks no matter what.

Since he was a child, he was well-clothed and well-fed. He had never suffered such hardships, but after coming to this Huguo Temple, he either ate fast or recited Buddha's name every day. He couldn't even taste a piece of meat. He really couldn't stand it anymore.

At the beginning, he thought that he would be able to go back soon, even if the emperor had suspicions about him, the concubine mother would definitely find a way to let him go back.He said to himself, as long as he put on a show, after those few days, the rain will clear up.

He tried his best to put on an appearance of being pure-minded and earnest in his practice, so that those who watched him would report back and let Emperor Jing see his sincerity.However, so many days have passed, not to mention the father, even the mother and concubine have no information at all, he seems to be forgotten by the whole world.

Do you have to stay in this ghost place in the future and live such a boring life?No!This is not the life he should live.He is the second prince of the Xia Kingdom, the future prince, and there are many things waiting for him to do, how can he stay here to waste time!

We must find a way to leave here and return to the place that belongs to him!Zhu Xu clenched his chopsticks tightly, and the next moment the strong chopsticks broke, startling Tianshou who was on the side. Just as he was about to say something, there was a knock on the door.

Zhu Xu came back to his senses, put down the broken chopsticks, picked up the handkerchief that was put aside, wiped his hands, and signaled Tianshou to open the door.

The person who came was dressed in black, he was Fuchen, the head of the dark guard who followed Zhu Xu to Huguo Temple.

"Your Highness, I have something to report."

"Say." Without raising his head, Zhu Xu took the new chopsticks from Tianshou and ate with a blank expression.

"The subordinates discovered that Eunuch Shuangxi came to Huguo Temple."

Hearing this, Zhu Xu paused, raised his head and looked at Fuchen, waiting for his next words.

"The subordinates found that not only Shuangxi Eunuch, but also the commander of the imperial guards came. After some investigation, I guessed that the Holy Majesty is in the temple at the moment, and he is having a secret conversation with the Tianyi abbot in the room. Because there is Commander Chen guarding outside the room, we There is no way to get close to the people, so I don’t know what they are talking about.”

After listening to his subordinates' report, Zhu Xu chewed the food in his mouth thoughtfully, talking to himself.

"Father came to Huguo Temple, probably because he wanted to know how our brothers behaved in the temple. However, if Father wanted to know these things, he didn't need to come to Huguo Temple in person and secretly talk to the sky. There must be some kind of secret in this secret conversation with a great master.”

At the same time, Emperor Jing was sitting in the room with Master Tianyi, holding hot tea and talking about Buddhist scriptures.

"Listening to Master Tianyi's words is better than reading books for ten years. Master Tianyi must come to the palace more often in the future and explain Buddhist scriptures to me." Putting down his teacup, Emperor Jing smiled and said.

Master Tianyi clasped his hands together and recited a Buddhist name, saying that as long as Emperor Jing wanted to listen, he could enter the palace to teach him Buddhist scriptures at any time.

After the two chatted a few more Buddhist scriptures, Emperor Jing revealed the purpose of today's visit.
