The character is broken!The General's Sick Beauty Is a Killer

Chapter 8 Golden Buddha
Tang Xi mourned her sister's tragic experience, and decided to go to Longhua Temple to copy scriptures and pray for her for a day.

After hearing about Tang Xianchang, Tang Xi took Baozhen and several guards with strong martial arts skills and drove to Hualong Temple forty miles away.

The carriage set off early in the morning and it took nearly an hour to arrive at the foot of the mountain where Hualong Temple is located.

The road up the mountain was narrow and there was no room for carriages, so Tang Xi and his party could only temporarily stop by the side of the road and put on a small and delicate soft hat that Tang You specially prepared for her before leaving.

The seat is soft and comfortable, and the four corners of the inner wall of the sedan chair are thoughtfully padded to prevent her from bumping into each other. There are sachets placed in the corners, and the light fragrance spreads throughout the soft sedan chair.

Several guards took turns to lift the sedan chair two by two, and walked steadily towards the halfway up the mountain where Longhua Temple was located.

The sedan chair was stuffy, so Tang Xi opened the curtains to let in air.

The mountain road is narrow, like a white python hanging on the mountain wall. The edge of the road is a steep cliff, and the bottom cannot be seen.

Tang Xi looked into the distance, with green mountains and misty clouds, like a fairyland on earth, as if there were real immortals living here.

Tang Xi was watching in a daze, when a tall and strong black horse suddenly broke into her sight, blocking almost all of her vision.

Tang Xi moved his gaze upwards, and first saw a frosty and snowy sword hanging on the horse's belly. Holding the man's strong and stalwart body, Tang Xi looked at a pair of black eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

Tang Xi's chest trembled.

It was Jian Chijin.

She slammed down the curtains to block Jian Chijin's gaze, and sat in the dimly lit sedan chair. The scene of the night palace banquet involuntarily appeared in her mind, and she suddenly felt a dull pain in her waist.

Why is he here?
Jian Chijin's low laughter came from outside the sedan chair. Tang Xi heard it very harshly, and gritted her teeth. She pulled out a pearl hairpin from her head, held it in her hand, opened the curtain, and looked at the girl who was only an arm's length away from her. rocking horse.

As long as she puts the hairpin on the horse, the horse will definitely run away in pain. The mountain road is only so wide that even people and horses fall off the cliff and fall to pieces...

"This horse of mine was bestowed by the emperor himself, so it cannot be hurt." Jian Chijin lowered her eyes, seeing through her little thoughts at a glance, and said lightly.

Tang Xi raised his chin, snorted arrogantly, "The general is worrying too much." After saying that, he pulled down the curtain.

Jian Chijin smiled at the corners of her eyes, raised her eyebrows lightly, noncommittal.

The sound of horseshoes has been following the sedan chair unhurriedly, not one horse, but many, Tang Xi was puzzled, and opened the curtain on the other side, Baozhen has been waiting there, "Miss."

"What's following?" Tang Xi asked.

Baozhen glanced back, "Miss, it's a big Buddha."

"Big Buddha?"

Baozhen nodded, and said earnestly: "The empress believes in Buddhism. The big Buddha was just completed not long ago, and the empress sent General Ning Yuan to escort it to Hualong Temple."

"What a coincidence," Tang Xi murmured in a low voice, "If I knew he was coming, I wouldn't be here today."

"Ah?" Baozhen didn't hear clearly, so she leaned closer to her ear, "What are you talking about?"

"Nothing." Tang Xi shook his head, looked around and looked at the sky, "How long will it take to reach Hualong Temple?"

"Soon," Baozhen pointed to the front, "I've already seen the top of the tower."

That's good.

Tang Xi put down the curtain with peace of mind.

Jian Chijin's hearing is excellent, and the conversation between the master and the servant entered his ears verbatim. He looked down at the impossibly exquisite and exquisite sedan chair in front of him, and imagined that the little girl inside must be sitting and lying down at this moment. Uneasy, wishing to get rid of his appearance quickly, I felt amused.

After finally getting through this distance, the soft sedan was placed firmly on the ground, Baozhen stepped forward to lift the curtain of the sedan chair, and helped Tang Xi get off the sedan chair.

There are hundreds of cyan stone steps in sight, stretching to the sky, looking up from the bottom, you can only see the golden glazed tiles on the top of the temple, and the lifelike immortals on the flying roof.

"This temple was built by the empress to spread the Dharma, and the people who come and go to worship are dignitaries, nobles and royal family members, which is why it is so brilliant."

Tang Xi looked sideways at the man who was speaking. At this moment, he was looking up at the towering ridge of the roof, his eyes were deep, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Tang Xi nodded slightly, leading Baozhen up the stairs.

The guards followed behind them.

Jian Chijin stood at the same place, looking at her back as she climbed the stairs. She was wearing a lotus root pink dress. In order to prevent tripping, she held the hem of the skirt with both hands, and her long hair was draped behind her. A gust of wind blew her hair loose , the slender waist looming.

It's still so thin, Jian Chijin lowered his head and gestured with his hand, very puzzled, what did he eat to grow up, how could it be so thin?

Lifting the hem of the skirt and walking to the last step, the decoration of the Hualong Temple, which is comparable to a palace, comes into view.

Tang Xi put down her skirt, looked at the extravagant scene in front of her, and the first thing that came to her mind was Jian Chijin.

I heard that in the past few years of his northern expedition to Beidi, the supply of food, grass and cotton clothes has sometimes been insufficient. The biggest opponent of the border fighters is not Beidi, but the cold wind in the northern border and the insatiable stomach. He has written to the court many times, but The Ministry of Finance always shirks on the grounds that the treasury is empty.

But in fact, Tang Xi sneered, the queen wanted to build a temple and pile up mountains of gold and silver.

She looked back and saw that Jian Chijin, who was below the steps, was dragging the gleaming golden Buddha along with her subordinates.

The young soldiers were sweating and didn't think it was a hard job. On the contrary, the general joined them and gave them great encouragement.

There is a compassionate smile on the corner of the Buddha statue's mouth, and the eyes made of black gemstones are shining.

Jian Chijin felt that someone was looking at him, looked up, and saw that Tang Xi's clear eyes were full of pity, but in an instant, the pity disappeared, and the indifference returned, and the little girl turned and left without saying a word.

"General, why did you stop?" A young soldier with a handsome face followed Jian Chijin's gaze, and there was nothing but a golden roof.

Jian Chijin half-faced her eyes, and silently tied the sackcloth on her hands tightly, "It's nothing, tell me to go on, after this trip, I will personally ask the empress for rewards for everyone."

He chewed the last two words slowly, and his tone was thought-provoking.

Gao Feiwei only heard the word "please reward", and excitedly stretched his neck and shouted to the brothers behind him: "Brothers, do you hear that? After finishing this trip, the general will ask the empress to give us a reward. Everyone work hard and work hard!"

The fighting spirit of the crowd was instantly aroused by the reward, and the speed of the Buddha statue's forward movement was significantly accelerated.

inside the temple.

Tang Xi gave some money to get rid of those guards, and took Baozhen around.

She didn't intend to copy the scriptures and chant the Buddha for Tang Min, she came to Hualong Temple just to get away from the mother and daughter, and to have a quiet day.

Longhua Temple is exclusive to nobles, and not many people come and go.

After wandering until noon, the two of them were led by the little novice monk to the wing room, and had a fast vegetarian meal.

In the afternoon, the two wandered around the back mountain.

The endless peach blossoms are in full bloom.

The breeze passed by slowly, blowing the falling flowers colorfully.

The peach fragrance lingered on the tip of his nose, Tang Xi bent down to pick up a petal, and played with it in the palm of his hand, then his eyes turned sharply and swept deep into the peach forest.

"Come out." Tang Xi said coldly.

Baozhen stood in front of her, her deer-like eyes staring ahead vigilantly.

Four figures swaggered out from behind the peach tree, staring at Tang Xi with greedy eyes.

They didn't dare to look at such a beautiful woman before, but now they need to fall into their hands, and let them flatten and round them as they like.

"Who are you?" Baozhen's voice was soft and waxy, and at this moment there was anger, like a cat's paw, scratching people's hearts.

The four men laughed wretchedly. At first they were worried that those few guards would not be able to attack, but they didn't know that these two people came to such a remote place in the back mountain alone, and they almost took the initiative to send them to their door.

"The little beauty will know after a while." One of the wretched men walked in front with a smile, rubbed his hands, and kept talking dirty.

Tang Xi felt nauseated, and interrupted him, "Did Sun Wanrong send you here?"

The four wretched men were taken aback, and glanced at each other. They didn't expect to be guessed so easily by her, so they stopped pretending, "So what, anyway, you don't want to go back alive today. Why don't you beg our brothers now?" Let me make you feel better later."

Tang Xi snorted coldly, took a few steps back, and handed over the battlefield to Baozhen.

But suddenly his back was pressed against a hard object, Tang Xi turned around in surprise, the silver needle in his hand was about to be thrown out, and met Jian Chijin's smiling eyes.

Tang Xi was startled, and he grabbed his wrist.

At the same time, several vigorous figures jumped out from behind him, and the one running in the forefront was the handsome Gao Feiwei.

"What kind of ability are you big men bullying two unarmed women? If you have the ability to fight us!" Gao Feiwei waved a machete that did not match his appearance, "Hey, why are you running?"

The four wretched men scurry into the peach forest like shit.

On the day when Jian Chijin's class returned to court, they took a look from a distance and recognized the person in front of them as General Ning Yuan. They did bad things in front of the general, and subconsciously wanted to run away.

"Why are there so many hidden weapons on you?" Jian Chijin fixed her wrist, pulled out the silver needles in her hand one by one, and then let go of her hand.

"Why is the general here? Have you finished delivering the Buddha statue?" Tang Xi snatched the silver needle from him, stuffed it into his sleeve, and said casually.

"It's over." Jian Chijin looked down at her movements, hesitated to speak, isn't she afraid of being stabbed?

Baozhen stood silently beside the two, her big round eyes rolling back and forth between them.

"General, everyone has been arrested." Gao Feiwei carried a wretched man in one hand, and the other two soldiers carried one like chickens, throwing all four of them on the ground.

The four of them were about to come over to grab Jian Chijin's clothes and beg for mercy, but Gao Feiwei mercilessly dragged them back, forcing them to kneel down in a proper manner.

"General, what should we do?" Gao Feiwei asked energetically.

Jian Chijin turned her head and looked at Tang Xi.

"Kill it." She opened her mouth indifferently.

"Ah?" Gao Feiwei pursed his lips, he was a little bit hesitant to let go, and scratched his head, "No...it's not so, why don't you give me a beating to relieve my anger?"

"Yes, yes, just give me a good beating," the wretched men kneeling on the ground kowtowed fiercely to Tang Xi, their expressions of repentance didn't seem to be arrogance at all, "Ms. Miss has a lot, please spare our brothers' lives , we were also instigated by others, it was your mother who made you die badly, we just use money to do things, it has nothing to do with us!"

Tang Xi frowned impatiently, and looked up at Jian Chijin.

That look seemed to say, can you do it?No, I'll go.

Jian Chijin raised his hand, Gao Feiwei obeyed the order, raised his knife and dropped it, four heads rolled to the ground.

Blood spurted out and splashed all over the ground.

Gao Feiwei originally thought that the delicate young lady in front of him would turn pale with fright, but he didn't expect her to turn around calmly and leave a light sentence, "Please wrap it up for me and send it to Earl Xianchang's residence."

Gao Feiwei blinked, are all the girls in the capital so cruel?Then he still wants to marry a wife in Shangjing?
"No, this is for you." Baozhen walked up to Gao Feiwei, handed him her pink handkerchief, pointed to her fleshy nose, "You have blood here, wipe it off."

After finishing speaking, he chased Tang Xi and ran away.

But Gao Feiwei's eyes became hot, it was really not easy for such a cruel and ruthless young lady to have such a gentle and considerate little maid, as expected, a girl has to be so gentle.

He wiped off the blood on his face with his sleeves, and put the handkerchief neatly in his bosom, how could he be willing to use such a fragrant handkerchief.
