Chaos on the temples: You can't escape if you provoke treacherous ministers

Chapter 961 Puppet

"If you are allowed to go in today and search my princess's boudoir at will, where will my princess's face be?"

As she said that, Tuoba Feier pulled out her long knife and looked like she would kill anyone who dared to come forward.

Seeing how tough she was, Ye Yao became more certain that the person who rescued Duke Zhen Guo's wife was hiding in this courtyard, so he asked the guards to rush forward.

"This palace is here to catch the thief. If Princess Suping insists on protecting her, she will have no choice but to offend her."

A fight broke out between the two parties. Although Tuoba Feier was the only one here, she came to Ziyun Nunnery with several maids and wives. When the fight started, everyone ran out.

Ye Yao quickly asked his mother-in-law to stop him, "We must not let anyone leave this hospital!"

But as soon as she finished speaking, Tuoba Feier came straight towards her with a sword.The fierce momentum scared her and she panicked, and she hurriedly shouted to the people around her for protection.

Even though Tuoba Feier was the only one, the courtyard was still in chaos.

The head master of Ziyun Temple arrived and persuaded the two parties to stop.But Ye Yao insisted on searching, so the master could only persuade Tuoba Fei'er to step back.

"She is the Queen after all. Why does the princess have to offend her, just to give face to this old nun?"

Tuoba Feier curled her lips and said, "I can't make things difficult for Master."

After that, she stepped aside, "But if the Queen has wronged me, what should I say?"

Ye Yao snorted coldly, "If I have wronged you, I will give you an explanation!"

After speaking, Ye Yao asked the guards to quickly enter the house and search.

After a while, the guards came out and found no suspicious person.

"No way, it must be her fault!"

Ye Yao frowned, it was true that someone pretended to be her and rescued Mrs. Zhen Guo. If this person was Liu Yunxiang, then she must be hiding here with Tuoba Feier.

Did she guess wrong?

"Your Majesty, I found this outfit. It was exactly what that person wore when he was pretending to be you." A guard came out holding a set of clothes.

Seeing this, Ye Yao angrily said to Tuoba Feier, "How dare you say you don't know?"

Tuoba Feier curled her lips and then puffed up her chest, "Okay, it's indeed me, but I didn't pretend to be you, it's just that they admitted their mistake. And didn't you also say that the Duke of Liuzhen's wife was staying with you to recuperate from her illness? She’s not a prisoner. I took her away and let her go down the mountain and go home. At most, I didn’t say anything to you. Isn’t that a big mistake?”

Ye Yao gritted his teeth, "Are you stupid to think that I am? You are pretending to be me, how are you like me?"

Tuoba Feier sneered, "This is not a pretense. I put on thick powder and wore clothes like yours. Plus, it was a groggy day today, so they mistakenly thought that I was. chant."

"impossible!"

"Otherwise?" Tuoba Feier curled her lips, "You don't really think that my sister Yunxiang is really here, do you? Are you crazy or is she crazy? The situation between the two sides is tense now. How could she, the majestic Princess Zhenbei, find out about Lai Sheng? Beijing!"

Ye Yao pursed his lips. Tuoba Feier's words made sense. If she were Liu Yunxiang, she would definitely not take this risk.

At this time, the hostess said: "I saw the princess and Mrs. Zhenguo coming out of the empress's courtyard. I wanted to go up to greet you, but they left in a hurry, and I didn't follow them. I just replied. When I got there, I saw the princess changing her clothes and heading into the garden. After a while, there was a quarrel in the garden, and I hurriedly went to break up the fight."

The master then rubbed his forehead and said, "Ziyun Nunnery is a pure place of Buddhism. If you two nobles don't have the intention to practice, you'd better come down from the mountain early and bring peace to our nunnery."

Hearing what Master Shitai said, Ye Yao lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then raised his head and said, "I came here to pray to Guanyin. I have already paid my respects and will go down the mountain today."

After saying that, Ye Yao led the people outside.

Tuoba Feier breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the master again. The master nodded at her.At the back gate of Ziyun Nunnery, Liu Yunxiang thanked the Master. If she hadn't been covering up just now, she would not have been able to escape from that courtyard.

"Ziyun Temple was hit by a flash flood back then, and the princess and His Highness donated money to rebuild it. I am honored to be able to do such a small thing for the princess. Princess Kuang is trying to save people, and I only admire her even more."

"Master, don't say that. I'll spare you these two days."

"The princess has a fate with Ziyun Nunnery. The old nun will pray to the princess day and night, wishing the princess peace and safety."

After thanking his master again, Liu Yunxiang followed Tuoba Feier down the mountain.

She left Shengjing a year ago. In fact, at that time, she really thought she would never come back in this life.But within a year, she had to come back.

Along the way, Tuoba Feier said excitedly that when they were at Ziyun Temple, Ye Yao was stunned for a while.

"She doesn't believe that I'm pretending, but she doesn't believe that you came to Shengjing even more. Her head probably hurts just thinking about it, and she can't figure it out." Tuoba Feier said cheerfully.

Liu Yunxiang looked at the injury on Tuoba Feier's forehead, remembered something, and asked, "Then why did Ye Yao hurt her mother?"

I heard that her parents took her to the Zhenguo Palace to seek justice. Not to mention her father, her mother must have loved her very much. Why did it happen like this?

Tuoba Feier shook his head, "I only heard one thing clearly. The old woman said she was a murderer and wanted to expose her or something."

Liu Yunxiang was silent, it seemed that Ye Yao and her parents had fallen out.

After entering the city gate, Liu Yunxiang listened to the lively shouting outside. She opened some curtains and looked outside.

She has traveled to many places over the years, and has also thought about settling in Yangui City, but after all, Shengjing is her hometown, and as long as she returns here, she is back home.

From a distance, she saw a few street sweepers, some in their prime and some with gray hair. Liu Yunxiang didn't pay attention at first, but when the carriage came closer, she recognized one or two of them, and she couldn't help but let out a sigh.

"Are they officials from the DPRK and China?"

Tuoba Feier took a look outside and said, "Yes, there are those from the cabinet and the six ministries."

"Why are they sweeping the streets?"

"The emperor wanted to take back Zhenbei, and these officials wrote a letter to advise him. The emperor believed that they were not loyal ministers but were rebellious ministers who had their hearts towards the king of Zhenbei. So he cut off his official position and punished them by sweeping the streets, in order to deter other officials. Official."

Liu Yunxiang frowned. Qin Shengrui was just a puppet. The real decision-maker was Lu Changan. He was the one who reduced the official positions of these officials and punished them for sweeping the streets.

The front was blocked, and the carriage was heard on the road.

At this time, some people passed by and whispered: "The King of Zhenbei has retreated to Zhenbei, but the emperor still won't let him go."

"There is no room for two tigers in one mountain. King Kuang Zhenbei has won the hearts of the people and all the officials are willing to follow him, so he is naturally afraid of him."

"I heard that King Suping has been admonishing the emperor, and he has been reprimanded."

"Hey, King Suping has done a lot of good things for the people this year. He can't be reduced from his position."

Liu Yunxiang let out a sigh of relief. This must be Lu Changan's purpose. He would blame the emperor for provoking the war between the court and Zhenbei, making the ministers and people angry, but leaving a good reputation for himself. When the war is won, he will be forced to The emperor ascended the throne to him, and the ministers and people did not object.

Since the emperor was ill and unable to attend court, all orders were conveyed through him, and naturally all his decisions were conveyed.

The emperor was a puppet that he used thoroughly.
