first princess

Chapter 253: Seeking to usurp the throne (3)
"You did a good job." Shui Linglong praised her affirmatively, then took out a bag of silver locks and handed it to her, "Shut up Xing'er."

"Yes!" The mother-in-law happily took the purse and solemnly agreed.

Shui Linglong took Ye Mao, Zhi Fan and Liu Lu with her, went to the outer courtyard to inform An Ping, and then the four quietly followed Dong Jialin.

Dong Jialin wore a veil, and most people would not be able to recognize her face, but she was still very cautious. Several times, Shui Linglong and her group got too close and were almost spotted.Dong Jialin walked forward cautiously, turned around and turned into a small alley. At the end of the alley, turn right and the third shop is called "Zhenbao Pavilion".

Zhi Fan and Ye Mao were very impressed with Zhenbao Pavilion. Before the young lady left the court, she had spent a lot of money in Zhenbao Pavilion, buying more than 2000 taels of silver jewelry, and they both had heartache for the young lady for a whole month.And what's so special about this shop?

Two quarters of an hour later, when Dong Jialin came out of the shop, she changed into the clothes of the palace maid, but she was still covered with a veil. She looked around and hurriedly stepped into an inconspicuous carriage.Shui Linglong and her group immediately hired a carriage and chased after them from a distance.After traveling for about two quarters of an hour, the carriage left the downtown area and turned into a secluded narrow path. Ruoshui Linglong remembered correctly that this was the direction to Putuo Temple.

Dong Jialin got out of the carriage, folded her hands intentionally or unintentionally on her abdomen, slowly climbed up the steps, and walked towards the temple halfway up the mountain.Shui Linglong jumped down to the ground, marked the grass beside her with a special powder, and then covered it with weeds, "All put on veils." Ye Mao, Zhi Fan and Liu Lu all took out their veils from their bosoms and put them on. Linglong is no exception.

After Dong Jialin visited the major Buddhist halls like an ordinary pilgrim, she knelt in front of the Buddha and waved a lottery. Sign on the branch.

A few people surrounded an incense cauldron outside the hall and cast copper coins. Zhi Fan looked back at Dong Jialin who was having a good conversation with the eminent monk, and asked in a low voice: "Miss, is she... just here to offer incense and pray for blessings? The servant heard that, Many women who are pregnant with children will come to the temple to make a wish, and then come back to fulfill the wish when the wish is fulfilled."

Liu Lu snorted, "Blessings? Come on, I'm probably thinking of a man! Look at her transformed eyebrows and eye shadows, they are as flattering as Su Daji! Pregnant women can't use these things. If she wants to sincerely pray for her children, first of all Don't use makeup on your face!"

The last sentence was a little louder, Dong Jialin seemed to have noticed something, she turned her upper body and looked outside the hall with a smile, "Yes, you are right, my brother just came through all the hardships..."

Shui Linglong and the others quickly took out copper coins one after another and threw them into the tripod.Dong Jialin turned pale, then looked at the eminent monk, "I have benefited a lot from discussing Zen with you, you are worthy of being an eminent monk."

"Where is where?" the eminent monk said politely.

Dong Jialin smiled and bid farewell to the eminent monk, lifted her skirt and walked towards the wing where the female pilgrims rested.People are divided into three, six, and nine classes, and so are the wing rooms.The ordinary wing is on the west, the medium wing is on the south, and the red wall of red tiles on the east is a place for the royal family or very prominent people to rest. Dong Jialin went to the medium wing.

In order to better observe Dong Jialin's movement, Shui Linglong climbed up a hillside opposite the wing room, and ordered Zhi Fan, Ye Mao, and Liu Lu to take the room next to Dong Jialin, and Zhi Fan opened the front window to facilitate the exchange of signals with Shui Linglong .

At first, Shui Linglong thought that Xun Feng would come to see Dong Jialin in person after Dong Jialin talked with the shopkeeper in Zhenbao Pavilion, but obviously, she underestimated Xun Feng's cautiousness.From noon to dusk, Dong Jialin's room door was kept tightly closed. If Zhifan hadn't gestured to her "the target is alive" every quarter of an hour, she might have thought that there was a tunnel in the room, and Dong Jialin fled away.

Two quarters of an hour later, Shui Linglong's stomach was growling with hunger, and the smell of rice from the temple rushed to her face with the breeze, and Shui Linglong's saliva flowed out.Just as she was fantasizing about countless delicacies, a bald novice knocked on Dong Jialin's door with a food box.The door opened, and the novice stepped into the room, and 5 minutes after the door closed, the novice walked out.

Shui Linglong frowned suspiciously, she just delivered the food to the door, why did she go in for several minutes?Shui Linglong gestured to Zhifan, and Zhifan said to Liu Lu: "Miss asked you to follow that little monk." Liu Lu followed her lightly as she said.

After a while, a sweeping maid entered the room. The temple would take in some homeless people as appropriate, and they would usually help the temple to do what they could. Therefore, the appearance of the sweeping maid was not surprising. Five minutes later, Shui Linglong saw Dong Jialin coming out with a veil on, which made Shui Linglong a little surprised, she made a gesture, and Ye Mao chased after her.The housewife is still in the room, what is she doing?Simply clean the room, or give it a makeover?
Suddenly, thick smoke billowed from a meditation room at the end of the corridor, and then someone ran out and shouted: "It's water! It's water! Hurry up and leave the meditation room and go to the front hall! Everyone, hurry up, hurry up!" Leave the meditation room! It's burning!"

After being called out by her, the doors of all meditation rooms opened one after another, and the female guests fled out one after another. In just a few breaths, the scene fell into chaos.Shui Linglong noticed that the sweeping maid rushed out of the door and mixed into the crowd.Shui Linglong gestured to Zhi Fan, who was quite frightened and managed to maintain her composure, and Zhi Fan pressed her chest, and followed.

Now all that is left is to wait, because even Shui Linglong doesn't know who is the real Dong Jialin among the three. The bald-headed monk is the least likely, and the genders are different, but the possibility of disguise is not ruled out.

Another quarter of an hour passed, and Liu Lu came back. She held up her skirt and kept panting, "Miss...Miss, that... Monk is the real Dong Jialin. She wears a special hat on her head. She tugged, and the servant saw the hair inside, now she entered a courtyard, the servant was at the door...look...saw Jinshang Palace!"

What a clever idea!Xun Feng had guessed her suspiciousness, so it was difficult for ordinary people to guess the head of the little monk because he was so suspicious, not only because he was a man with a bald head, but also because he was the first one to appear on the stage, that is, the one who was most likely to be caught. One of the suspects.

Shui Linglong's pupils shrank, something flashed through her mind, but she couldn't catch it too quickly, "You wait here for Zhi Fan and Ye Mao, and don't go anywhere after that, I'll be back soon."

In the room, Xun Feng pointed to the booklet on the table, and said: "The account books of these officials have been collected, and they must be taken with them before leaving, and they must not be left in the hands of others."

"Yes, I understand."

"How's the situation outside?"

Jin Shanggong said with a hint of joy: "Your Majesty is wise, as you expected, the emperor has ordered a retrial of the treasure map case, and now he is calling you back to Beijing."

"Yao Xin is in my hands, and the Yao family is wary. Naturally, they want to protect me first, and then protect Yao Xin logically." Xun Feng smiled, "Of course, this is also thanks to the fact that the Leng family and the Zhuge family remained neutral and refused to support The imperial power and the Yao family are Yunli's greatest reliance, can Yunli try his best to protect them?"

Jin Shanggong couldn't hide his smile, "As long as Madam is by Shizi's side, the Yao family will keep him safe. In this way, it will be much more convenient for us to plan our own affairs." After saying that, the guards reported Dong Jialin's arrival.

Xun Feng winked, Jin Shanggong understood, and carried the booklet to the next room.

Dong Jialin pushed the door and entered, and when she saw Xun Feng, she pulled off the hood on her head, her black hair flowed down, and her tears also fell, "Your Majesty."

Xun Feng gently took her into his arms, and asked softly, "Why are you crying? Are you wronged in the mansion?"

Dong Jialin sobbed: "It's okay for me to be wronged a little, as long as Shizi always remembers me and the child in his heart."

"Child?" There was a trace of surprise in Xun Feng's dark and deep eyes.

Dong Jialin took Xun Feng's hand to cover her inconspicuous lower abdomen, choked up and said, "On the day your accident happened, Doctor Hu diagnosed me as pregnant for a month and a half, and I escaped death because of it, and was placed under house arrest in the Bauhinia Courtyard. I hope that you will come to pick me up every day, but you..." At the end of the speech, weeping, "you only have Yao Xin in your heart, and you never forget to take Yao Xin with you when you leave, and you don't care about the lives of our mother and child..."

According to the gestational age, the child is his.It's just a woman who has played with, he doesn't take it very seriously, but if she is pregnant with his child, it's another matter.Xun Feng curled his lips into a smile, and said in relief: "If I really don't care about you, can you find this place smoothly today?"

Dong Jialin sniffed and looked at him with teary eyes, "Then tell me, how do you plan to arrange me in the future?"

"My lord, Madam refuses to eat again." Just as Xun Feng was thinking about how to answer Dong Jialin, a servant girl's report sounded outside.Xun Feng patted her on the shoulder, "Change into your clothes and take a rest, I'll go back as soon as I go."

Dong Jialin's heart was sour, didn't Yao Xin just refuse to eat?Why are you so nervous?
In the quaint room, Yao Xin was leaning weakly on the head of the bed. The servant girl invited her to eat, but she waved her hand and told the servant girl to leave, "Get out, I have no appetite."

The maid looked at Jinju in embarrassment, Jinju took the tray and sighed: "I'll come, you go down."

The servant girl blessed her body gratefully and left the room.

Yao Xin's favorite food: Stir-fried vegetable sprouts with bacon, fish-flavored shredded pork, sweet and sour pork tenderloin, shredded sweet potatoes, barbecued pork in honey sauce, steamed baby vegetables with preserved eggs, and black chicken soup with wolfberry.Kumquat put the tray on the table, picked up the rice bowl, picked up some vegetables, went to the bedside, and persuaded: "Miss, you should eat something anyway, there is no way to go hungry like this, and the prince will have to kill and cook again later." my maid."

When Yao Xin heard this, a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes, "I don't want to eat it right now, so I'll put it away and eat it when I'm hungry."

Kumquat obediently put the rice bowl back on the table.Yao Xin fell into bed and "sleeped" with her head covered like a living dead.Suddenly, a woman's voice came from outside the door, "Ma'am, the servants are here to deliver food."

Yao Xin frowned, didn't she deliver it?After thinking about it, the woman said again: "It's Madam's favorite grape. There is no seafood. Madam doesn't have to worry about vomiting."

Yao Xin's temples twitched, and he hurried over to open the door, and sure enough, he saw Shui Linglong standing at the door, "Ling..."

Before the word "Long" came out, Shui Linglong moved her ears, covered her mouth and ran into the room, and closed the door behind her back and put the latch on. At almost the same moment, a man's magnetic voice sounded outside the door, "Xin Son, it's me."

Yao Xin's eyes were wide open, Shui Linglong obviously only covered her mouth, but she felt that she couldn't even breathe through her nose.Shui Linglong held back her horror and winked at her, Yao Xin nodded.Shui Linglong slowly let go of her hand, Yao Xin's chest heaved a little bit, Shui Linglong raised her arms, signaling her to take a deep breath.Yao Xin took a few deep breaths, and gradually calmed down the urge to scream.

At this time, Xun Feng asked again: "Xin'er, are you asleep?"

Yao Xin shook hands at Kumquat who was also terrified, and Kumquat led Shui Linglong into the clean room. While watching the two of them tiptoeing around, Yao Xin said, "Well, I'm a little sleepy, so I'm going to bed first, I want to wake up Come and eat again."

Xun Feng frowned suspiciously, as if worried, "Open the door, I'll come in to see you."

Yao Xin's heart trembled, and a chill ran down his spine, "I'm going to sleep, come back tomorrow."

Xun Feng became more and more puzzled, "I'll rest in your room tonight."

Hearing this, Kumquat was so guilty that he lost his hand and knocked down the washbasin in the clean room.The sudden sound made Xun Feng even more suspicious, so Xun Feng used all his internal strength to open the door.The cold wind suddenly poured in, slashing across the face like a cold knife, and the hairs all over Yao Xin's body stood on end.However, just as Xun Feng was about to cross the threshold, a servant girl rushed over, "My lord, someone in your room has fainted!"

Xun Feng's eyes sharpened, he withdrew his feet that were lifted in mid-air, turned around and went back to his room.

Yao Xin collapsed on the ground as if exhausted, Shui Linglong walked to her side, held her shoulder and said seriously: "There is not much time, I just ask you, are you willing to leave with me?"

Yao Xin nodded without thinking, and Shui Linglong took her hand, leading her and Jinju towards the door.This is a secluded courtyard in the back mountain of the temple. If she hadn't followed Dong Jialin, Shui Linglong would never have dreamed that the temple would have such a high-end courtyard for pilgrims to rest.There are five other courtyards side by side, each housing some dignitaries. In order not to attract extra attention, Xun Feng did not place too many people in the courtyard, so that Shui Linglong could get in and out of the courtyard by luck.

"We need to move quickly, Dong Jialin won't be able to delay for long." Shui Linglong solemnly reminded Yao Xin and Jinju as they looked at Yao Xin and Jinju who were gradually exhausted.

Yao Xin wiped the sweat off his chin casually, "Dong Jialin? Why is she here?"

Shui Linglong looked around and said in a low voice: "I can't explain it in too much detail. It's probably because Xun Feng and Dong Jialin have an unclear relationship. Dong Jialin is pregnant with Xun Feng's child. She came to find Xun Feng, and I followed her to find him." Here you go."

Dong Jialin probably found that the four of them were following them when she was in the temple. She came here in person, and even with her toes, Dong Jialin could think that her purpose was to take Yao Xin away.After Dong Jialin pretended to be a little monk, she deliberately pulled off the hood to expose her hair for Liu Lu to see. In fact, in this game, she and Dong Jialin had the same position, that is, they did not want Yao Xin to stay by Xun Feng's side.

Yao Xin's eyes trembled, and her hand holding Shui Linglong felt a little tight.Shui Linglong understands Yao Xin's feelings, and no one will be comfortable putting this matter on anyone's body. Xun Feng has been the innocent and cute Mu Hua all his life, and he also hopes that someone can hold Xun Feng's heart, so that the reincarnation between her and Xun Feng can be changed, and everyone's repeated bad luck can be changed, but it seems... She underestimated Without Xun Feng's imperial complex, he can do anything and use anything in order to become emperor.

"Thank you for coming to save me." Yao Xin said in a low voice.

Shui Linglong looked at the disappointment in her eyes, there was a faint trace of despair, and a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, if Yao Xin gave up on Xun Feng, stopped marrying Xun Feng, and did not become the queen of the new dynasty, the fate of this life would be the same as the monk let her see. Is this the "difference" that Yao Junjie said?If so, then Yao Xin can be said to have saved everyone!Shui Linglong shook her hand and said: "Don't think too much, it's all over, from now on bridge to bridge, road to road."

Yao Xin's eyes tightened, "That's right, I have nothing to do with him anymore!"

"Xin'er, if you say this, your husband will be sad."

Shui Linglong and Yao Xin were both shocked, the soles of their feet seemed to be hit with nails, and they couldn't move a step.

With his hands behind his back, Xun Feng strolled past the three of them in a leisurely manner, and barely stopped a meter away from them, turned around and smiled coldly and wickedly, "I don't know who it is, so it is Concubine Shizi, why, you came all the way to see my wife, why don't you say hello to me?"

Yao Xin turned her face away stubbornly, "Who is your wife? I married Mu Hua. Since you are not, this marriage is invalid."

Xun Feng looked at Yao Xin, his smile lost the coldness and evilness he had when facing Shui Linglong, and was as gentle as spring flowers blooming, "We are husband and wife, Xiner, you can't deny it."

Yao Xin turned pale with anger, "Shameless!"

Xun Feng could have told Yao Xin that I am not the only shameless person, but also Leng Youru and Shui Linglong. They knew I was Xun Feng, but they didn't tell you, but Xun Feng didn't intend to say anything, he didn't want to see Yao Xin Xin and Shui Linglong broke up, and he still hoped that the two would get along peacefully in the future, following the example of Ehuang and Nvying.He looked at Shui Linglong again, "A few weak women dared to break into the dragon's pond and tiger's lair, I underestimated your Shui Linglong's courage too much." After saying that, he clapped his hands, and several young monks who were powerful and powerful rushed to the front forward.

Shui Linglong's expression changed slightly, "The branches are flourishing, the leaves are lush, and the willows are green!"

Xun Feng smiled and said, "How about three for one?"

Shui Linglong clenched her fists suddenly, Yao Xin raised her head, forced the tears back to the corners of her eyes, and smiled bitterly, "Linglong, take them away, I can't leave."
