The female medical concubine of the peasant

Chapter 142: Wolf in Front and Tiger in Back 5

Chapter 142

Under an ancient pine tree at the highest point of the mountain.

Two people, one old and one young, were sitting under a tree, and in front of them was a set of broken chess pieces on a rock.

The young one was none other than the Fifth Prince Xuanyuan Che.Opposite him was a fat monk who looked no older than sixty, who was the abbot of Xiangyun Temple, Master Huichen.

In fact, Master Huichen is already seventy-eight years old, but his eyes and ears are bright, his lips are red and his teeth are white, his appearance and behavior do not match his age at all.

Surrounded by remnant snow, only the two of them were surrounded by brown mountain soil.

Master Huichen watched intently for a while, then suddenly placed a chess piece on the chessboard, chuckled, and said, "Your Highness, your chess skills have greatly improved."

The Fifth Prince Xuanyuan Che's expression was stern, without saying a word, but he was carefully watching the formation on the chessboard.

The second day of October is the anniversary of the death of the fifth prince's birth mother, the concubine Lu Xuan. After returning to the capital three years ago, he lit an ever-burning lamp for his birth mother in Xiangyun Temple.Although the emperor had long offered an ever-burning lantern to Concubine De in Huguo Temple, the royal temple in the capital, the fifth prince only came to Xiangyun Temple to pay homage to his mother at this time of the year.

Although the fifth prince has lived in the palace in recent years, he sometimes sees the emperor.But there always seemed to be an insurmountable gap between the father and son. The two of them talked and laughed like ordinary father and son, and usually they couldn't even speak a few words.

Thinking of the emperor's doting on her when Concubine De was still alive, now the fifth prince only thinks it is ironic.There are so many women in the emperor's harem, I'm afraid they have already forgotten their mother.In the past three years, the fifth prince has never heard that the emperor went to Huguo Temple on the anniversary of the death of his mother and concubine.So he didn't want to go along with the emperor's wishes and didn't go to Huguo Temple to offer incense at all.Every year at this time, I come to Xiangyun Temple to stay for a few days, so that I can accompany my mother and concubine who has already disappointed the emperor even under the nine springs.

It was also on this day that the fifth prince came to this Xiangyun Temple for the first time, when he was about to leave, he inadvertently saw Master Huichen standing under the pine tree, so he couldn't help but want to come over to have a look.

At that time, the Fifth Prince didn't know that this kind-looking monk was the abbot of Xiangyun Temple.The two stood side by side for a long time. Master Huichen asked him if he wanted to play a game of chess, and the fifth prince, who had always refused people thousands of miles away, nodded in agreement.

That is to say, from that year on, on this day every year, the two of them would play chess here for most of the day.

At this time, seeing the fifth prince drop a chess piece, Master Huichen smiled and said: "Your Highness, today's chess you will only lose the difference between my two pieces."

With a soft snort, Xuanyuan Che said with a bit of coldness, "I have a name," probably because he hated the emperor in his heart, and he didn't even want people to address him by his honorary title.

"It's a pity," Master Hui Chen shook his head and said, "Some things cannot be changed without authorization." For example, one's birth.

Gazing at Master Huichen, Xuanyuan Che watched him drop the chess pieces.This old monk always picks up words that others don't like.But there is no way, what he said is the truth.

Xuanyuan Che was thinking about how to break the chess game of Master Huichen, and it would be best to break the gap between the two. At this moment, there was a faint voice of cheering.

Obviously, the patrolling guards were blocking the people who wanted to go up the mountain. This was a situation that had never happened before. He couldn't help but look back at Wang Jia and Wang Yi who were standing not far away.

And Wang Jia and Wang Yi also heard the voice, seeing Xuanyuan Che looking over at this moment, they nodded, Wang Jia stayed, and Wang Yi rushed away to check the situation.

Master Hui Chen frowned and pinched his fingers a few times, then stood up, smiled slightly at Xuanyuan Che and said, "I'm afraid today's chess game is coming to an end, you should go and have a look."

Xuanyuan Che jumped up from the ground, and said with some dissatisfaction: "What does it matter to me?"

You have to break through to go up the mountain, and the soldiers intercepted it, so the identity of the person who came was definitely not qualified to go up the mountain.He didn't bother to pay attention to people like that.

"Go," Master Huichen looked at Xuanyuan Che and said, "It's the person you hit."

"Fourth brother is here?" Xuanyuan Che frowned, thought for a while and said: "Could it be that they came in a low-key suit, those bastards are simply blind." As he spoke, he ran down the mountain in big strides.At this time, he thought that the only person who might come was the Fourth Prince Xuanyuanhao.

"Boy," seeing him walking away quickly, Master Huichen shook his head lightly, and said in a low voice, "It's not the Fourth Highness, it's your red luan star that moved."

Wei Qingluan hurried all the way, originally she wanted to run directly to the main hall of Xiangyun Temple in front.When they get there, compared to Wei Baozhu and Quan Ronghua, they will definitely have scruples, so they don't dare to do anything to themselves easily.

Unexpectedly, when they reached the intersection leading to the main hall, Zhiyan and a few monks came hurriedly from there.

When he saw her, Zhiyan waved to the monks beside him, and rushed over quickly.

Thinking of the previous conflict with Zhiyan, Wei Qingluan secretly complained.At this time, she did not expect that Quan Ronghua would cooperate with Zhiyan, and the purpose was to catch her.

But seeing the current situation, Wei Qingluan knew that no matter which side he fell into their hands, he might not get any benefits.

Looking around, besides the front and back roads, there is also a road leading to the mountain.She had heard Liu Laoliu's nagging before, and knew that the road led to the courtyard where the royal family and nobles lived on the mountain.

After thinking about it, rather than being caught by these two gangs, it would be better to go up the mountain to ask for help.Even if they were stopped by the soldiers guarding the yard, at least they could delay for a while.If it takes a long time, maybe it will alarm other people in Xiangyun Temple,

Thinking of this, Wei Qingluan quickly turned around and ran towards the road leading to the mountain.

Seeing her behavior like this, Wei Baozhu, Quan Ronghua, and Zhiyan also hurriedly chased after her.

Wei Baozhu has two thoughts, one is to quickly arrest Wei Qingluan, lest she talk nonsense when the time comes.There is another one, that is to take this opportunity to follow up the mountain, if you can meet the prince who lives on the mountain, it will be a windfall.

Thinking about Wei Qingluan being alone, almost like a tomboy, he was still being chased by both sides, thinking about it, he couldn't afford to make any waves.And she is the little lady in the general's mansion, with bright clothes and decent attire, one can imagine who the prince can take a fancy to.

Thinking of this, she even felt that she should thank Wei Qingluan for such a choice.

Although Zhiyan's side is farther away, they are a group of young and strong men after all, so they soon overtook Wei Baozhu and Quan Ronghua's people.

Wei Qingluan is now particularly grateful for the physical labor he did in Wei Village a few years ago.Or let alone escaped Wei Baozhu and Quan Ronghua just now, they have already run almost two miles, and now they can still run.
