After the rebirth, the cold prince clings to me every day

Chapter 139 The rain is coming
Neither Feng Lisheng nor Peter took her words to heart.

After a while, the road was cleared, and Peter left with his escort in good spirits.

Shen Mingjiao was a little worried, "He won't be arrested as a different kind?"

The main reason is that this group of people are very good-looking, but they don't understand the language.

Feng Lisheng didn't care: "I'm not a woman, what danger can I encounter?"

Shen Mingjiao: "Who said that a good-looking man is dangerous outside, okay?"

After the two chatted for a while, Shen Mingjiao was going to go to Huguo Temple.

Feng Lisheng looked at her suspiciously: "Are you going to worship Buddha?"

In my impression, my princess doesn't believe in Buddhism!

Shen Mingjiao shrugged helplessly: "The death day of the Empress Dowager is coming soon! So we royal family members are going to Huguo Temple to fast and pray for the Empress Dowager."

Feng Lisheng frowned: "Why is it so early? Isn't the mother's death day still more than a month away?"

"You don't know? Because the year is good this year, and it's the empress dowager's taboo, so the Ministry of Rites proposed to make a big deal and start doing things more than a month in advance. Those of us who are daughters-in-law and some important ministers and women in the court will come here." Copy scriptures and fast for three days,

Feng Lisheng really hadn't heard of it, mainly because he was very busy these two days.He didn't think much about it, after all, the royal family did have such a rule.

"Then I'll take you there."

Shen Mingjiao waved her hand: "No need, the Huguo Temple is not far away, you should go get busy beforehand!"

"I'm fine today..."

Before the words fell, a fast horse stepped forward, and the soldier in armor dismounted and saluted with fists in his hands:

"Your Highness, there is an urgent report from the army that the officials and bandits in Pingjiang County, Suzhou have colluded and aroused public grievances, resulting in riots. Many people have died. The Suzhou garrison is requesting support."

Feng Lisheng's face became more and more serious.

When Shen Mingjiao saw her, she said, "It's important, let's go!"

Feng Lisheng nodded, and pointed to Tie Zhu to follow Shen Mingjiao.

Because he was accompanied by Feng Lisheng, he didn't bring many guards, and Yang Dayanger was also sent out by him.

"I'll let Xu Daniu and the others come over later."

Shen Mingjiao was a little speechless: "It's not that I'm going to go far away, the people I'm going to are a group of high-ranking officials and women. Besides, didn't the Second Prince of Beidi leave? How else can I be in danger?"

Feng Lisheng thought about it, and said that he might return late today, so he followed the soldier and left.

Shen Mingjiao supported Qiu Ju's hand to get on the sedan chair.The carriage headed towards Huguo Temple.

In a sedan chair not far away, Shen Mingyan quietly watched the carriage disappear from sight.Then he lowered his head and gritted his teeth, and with a bark, the delicate handkerchief in his hand was severely torn in half.

……

At the gate of Huguo Temple, just as Shen Mingjiao got off the carriage, she saw Cui Lingling who was supporting Mrs. Lu Guogong.

Cui Lingling saw her, her eyes lit up, she let go of Mrs. Lu Guogong's hand and trotted over.

Mrs. Lu Guogong was so frightened that she repeatedly exclaimed: "Hey! Slow down..."

Shen Mingjiao walked over a few steps and grabbed her, "I'm going to be a mother, and you're still so frizzy!"

Cui Lingling stuck out her tongue.

Mrs. Lu Guogong and Shen Mingjiao, who had caught up, bowed to salute, and then patted Cui Lingling's head.

"Princess, please take care of my family Lingling."

After finishing speaking, he walked into the monastery hand in hand with several wives of similar age.

Shen Mingjiao asked curiously, "Why did you come to Huguo Temple?"

"I came here with my mother." She sighed sadly, "Now that Qin Yan is not here, the house is really deserted!"

"By the way, I'm about to go to Su Wang's mansion? There are some clues about what your Highness wants to investigate."

"He has something to go to the military camp, and I'm afraid he won't be back until tomorrow, or you can just tell me, I'll just go back and tell him."

Cui Lingling shook her head with a serious face: "No, there are rules in our religion, you can't trade news with others casually."

Shen Mingjiao: "The family members can't do it either?"

Cui Lingling shook her head righteously: "No."

"Okay! Anyway, I will know tomorrow."

She had asked Feng Lisheng in private about the relationship between the Red Lotus Sect and the royal family.To sum it up, the Red Lotus Sect is regarded as the emperor's intelligence organization.
Of course, the Red Lotus Sect is not privately owned by the royal family.The two parties belong to a cooperative relationship.The Red Lotus Sect is responsible for providing information to the emperor, and the emperor has to protect them secretly.

After generations of accumulation, the information network of the Red Lotus Sect has penetrated almost the entire Great Xia.

……

The two entered the main hall of the Huguo Temple, and found that several princesses and some important officials and women's family members had arrived.

Not long after, the imperial army in armor creased cleared the way, and Luan, who was protecting the empress, entered the Huguo Temple, along with the crown princess Su Qing.

Counting that it was almost time, several eminent monks from Huguo Temple filed into the hall, performed a Buddhist ceremony to the queen, and then crossed their legs and began to practice.

The queen takes the lead, followed by several princesses, and then the wives.Everyone bowed their heads and knelt silently, and the whole hall looked solemn and solemn.

This ceremony will last for two full hours, but everyone here is pampered, so it is naturally impossible to kneel for two hours.

The monks of the Huguo Temple also knew this, so after half an hour, they rolled the Buddhist beads under the pavilion of the first eminent monk.

The queen took the lead in supporting Su Qing's hand to stand up, and sat down on a low stool to rest.

Seeing this, the ladies got up in twos and threes, or sat and rested, or went to the back hall together to go to the toilet.

Shen Mingjiao rubbed her kneeling numb legs, then lifted her feet to the apse.Princess Yu limped after her, "Let's go together."

The queen glanced at the backs of the two leaving, and said to Su Qing who was sitting gracefully: "The princess should also go down and have some tea and snacks!"

Su Qing lowered her eyelashes, hiding the emotions in her eyes, and said with a warm smile: "Thank you mother for being considerate, Qing'er is not tired."

When Shen Mingjiao and the others came to the Gong room in the back hall, there were already many wives standing at the door.

Seeing that she would have to wait for a long time, Princess Yu pulled the lady beside her,

"Is there no other house besides this?"

The lady being questioned shook her head.Instead, a lady at the side pointed to a door in the back corner and said:
"Just before I came in, I heard from a passing monk that there is a Gongfang after going out of this gate and going north for a while."

Concubine Yu dragged Shen Mingjiao to go there, when the other wives saw and saw so many people in front of them, they also carried each other out of the corner door.

Because we want to pray for the Queen Mother and show our sincerity, everyone including the Queen.They all left the maids and maids outside.

They didn't go far, and everyone saw a Gong's house.

Princess Yu went in first, and after she came out, it was Shen Mingjiao's turn.After all, the two of them had the highest status present.

The wives disliked the smell of Gong's house, so they all stood far away.

Princess Yu stood for a while, and the voices of two women could be heard from afar.

"...Hey, have you heard? The eldest son of Han Shilang's mansion is having an affair with Han Shilang's concubine, and the guests who came to the banquet happened to bump into him, tsk tsk! I heard that the concubine's bellyband is hanging on Han Gongzi's arm... "

Princess Yu's eyes brightened, as if she had picked up a huge sum of money, she couldn't help but hold her breath and leaned forward to listen.The other ladies also raised their ears calmly.

Don't listen to anything indecent, if you come across such hot gossip, especially if the target is someone they know, the one who can hold back and not listen is definitely a saint!

Obviously the ladies present were not.Moreover, those two women seem to be very good at telling this kind of gossip, within a few words, the listeners can't stop.

Completely forgot that they came to the toilet.

Until Cui Lingling, who was strolling in the front yard, passed by here, she bowed to Princess Yu, and asked curiously: "Why are you standing here for a long time? By the way, where is Sister Gillian?"

Princess Yu finally woke up from the state of receiving gossip, glanced at the quiet Gongfang, and said in a daze:

"My brother and sister are going to the toilet, hey, why hasn't she come out after so long?"

The wives also came back to their senses, and someone glanced at the two wives who had disappeared, feeling a bad premonition in their hearts.

Cui Lingling didn't care so much, and rushed to Gong's room in a few steps, it was empty and there was no one at all.
