Chapter 380: The Prince Who Loves Buddhism
"Ah" a cry of pain came from behind. It was a woman's voice. It was very light but also very soft. Even if you didn't see the person, you would think that the woman was a very beautiful person.
No matter how curious and happy he was, he didn't dare to look any further. He walked faster and faster, for fear that if he walked too slowly, he would make this man angry again. His master had repeatedly warned him that he must not offend him, and this time too. There is no way, otherwise I wouldn't use this person as a cover.
Qin Wanru touched her head, tears streaming down her face from the pain. She didn't know what hard object she hit, and her eyes were still black for a while.
The cloak on his head was suddenly lifted up, and Chu Liuchen's beautiful and narrow eyes were as gloomy as water, and he saw his long, slender, white hand covering his chin.
Qin Wanru woke up immediately, smiled hurriedly, stretched out her hand to cover the top of her hair and rubbed it.
"My lord, who is your uncle?"
The other hand fell on the top of her hair, and after gently rubbing her head twice, he looked at her with disgust: "Let Xiao Xuanzi take you out of the back door."
As he spoke, his other hand fell from his chin and rested on Qin Wanru's slender waist. The warm touch on the waist immediately made Qin Wanru wake up and stood up hastily, his cloak slipping to one side.
"Second Miss, please!" Xiao Xuanzi came over at the top of the stairs and lowered his head.
"Put this clothes on, don't let anyone find it!" Chu Liuchen stood up and put the cloak on Qin Wanru's body. This time he didn't put it on casually. After sending the two straps, he helped her Putting the hat down on his head, looking from the outside, he could only vaguely see a woman, but the rest could not be seen clearly.
Qin Wanru understood that the guards from the palace would come to inquire after a while. It would be easy for others to find out if he stayed here, which was also extremely inappropriate.
Following Xiao Xuanzi downstairs, Yujie was already waiting at the stairs. She also wore a gray cloak outside, which completely blocked her clothes and face underneath.
An ordinary carriage had already parked at the back door. Xiao Xuanzi arranged for them to get on the carriage. Then the carriage turned all the way out of the alley and headed towards another busy street. Then it turned out of the street and passed through a narrow alley. Turning onto the street, there were several turns along the way, and finally stopped in a secluded alley.
"Miss, please get off the carriage." The coachman said in a low voice after stopping the carriage.
Yu Jie jumped off the carriage first, followed by Qin Wanru.
"Miss, leave your cloaks." The coachman reminded them. After Yujie put their cloaks back on the car, the coachman pointed to the street in front, "Go out from here and walk a little further. It’s the same street where the bookstore was on fire!”
Now you can go back to the original path!
Qin Wanru nodded, stepped aside with Yujie, and the carriage moved forward again and continued to drive forward.
Qin Wanru took Yujie out of the alley and stood on the street. There were still many people in this section of the street, but they were not swarming forward. There were groups of people here and there talking about things. , Qin Wanru walked over with Yu Jie and heard that they were talking about the previous fire in the bookstore, and couldn't help but stop.
"Why is there an assassin in that shop? The assassin would assassinate the shopkeeper of an ordinary bookstore?"
"There is a noble man in the bookstore. I heard he is a prince."
"Really or not? Is there nothing wrong with the prince? What if something really happens?" Some people are worried that something has really happened to the royal bloodline, and those who are implicated will be in catastrophe. .
"I don't know, it's best to be fine. It's just a small bookstore that burned down and burned down!" I don't know if this is to appease myself or others.
Qin Wanru's watery eyes turned. When she was upstairs, she had actually thought of the identity of this prince.
King Cheng, King Cheng who loves Buddhism, is also the younger brother of the current emperor!
It is said that King Cheng loved Buddhism and had been interested in Buddhism since he was a child. He even had the idea of becoming a monk later. If the Queen Mother and the Emperor had not suppressed him, he would have become a monk long ago.
It’s not that he was hit by something, he just loved Buddhism. Because he loved Buddhism, he wanted to become a monk. Even now, he has not married even though he is still young.
He and the current emperor are not actually brothers from the same mother, but he has been raised under the lap of the Queen Mother since his childhood. The Queen Mother also likes him very much and will not allow him to become a monk like this. Under the pressure of being a monk, His Highness Prince Cheng rarely lives in his own palace, and basically lives in famous mountain temples.
Occasionally, when I go down the mountain, I go to the palace to see the Queen Mother.
In Qin Wanru's opinion, this prince is the most indifferent and has even faded out of the eyes of the world. People only thought that the emperor's sons would compete for the throne, but they never thought that the emperor's brother was also interested in it. People with great ambitions just cover up everything with their daily performance.
In the last life, when Qin Wanru was beheaded, His Highness Prince Cheng was still a prince with excellent Buddhist knowledge. Hearing that something happened to his eldest brother, he rushed to the palace to attend to his illness.
Qin Wanru spent a lot of time in the palace in his last life, but he had little interaction with His Highness Prince Cheng. However, he secretly saw something, and this incident was related to Prince Cheng. Therefore, he knew that Prince Cheng was not as good as he appeared. Seen so calmly.
That day, she passed by a secluded palace. She couldn't remember exactly what she was going to do. She just seemed to have something to do. There she saw two eunuchs talking secretly, and one gave the other something. , she was frightened when she heard it.
Of the two eunuchs, one was with King Cheng, and the other was a close eunuch of the emperor. King Cheng’s eunuch gave the emperor’s close eunuch a package of things and asked him to put it on the emperor’s meal. It seemed that he also mentioned that he was the emperor at that time. The prince's Chu Liuchen was far away, and the two of them talked intermittently.
Qin Wanru couldn't hear clearly, but if nothing happened, why not take out the things openly and give them directly to the emperor. Seeing the sneaky look of the two eunuchs, Qin Wanru didn't dare to move at that time, for fear of being caught by them. I found that if the two eunuchs knew that there was someone secretly there, they would kill her...
Although this incident in her previous life caused her a lot of confusion and panic at the time, in the end something happened to her and nothing happened to the emperor. Prince Cheng was still a prince who loved Buddhism, and he was still A prince who pays great attention to brotherhood.
For such a prince who wants to become a monk, even though the royal family has never trusted this brotherhood, everyone is not wary of this prince...
"Like a sister!" A voice came from her ears. Qin Wanru looked back in shock and saw Qi Tianyu standing behind her with a surprised look on his face.
Seeing her turn around and realizing that she had recognized the wrong person, a smile immediately appeared on her face.
Is this genuine joy for finding her? This feeling was so strange. Qin Wanru looked at Qi Tianyu with her eyebrows slightly furrowed, always feeling that there was something she didn't know about...
"Master, here we come!" Xiao Xuanzi went upstairs to report.
"Come here!" Chu Chenlou waved lazily and said.
Xiao Xuanzi nodded, and soon there was a sound from the stairs, and a guard leader came up from the stairs. Seeing Chu Liuchen, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and said respectfully: "I have met His Royal Highness, King Chen!"
"No!" Chu Liuchen said nonchalantly. He raised his face that was slightly flushed with alcohol and closed his handsome eyes. It was obvious that this man was a little drunk.
"Your Highness King Chen, my subordinates have been ordered by the emperor to investigate the assassination of King Cheng!" the leader of the guards stood up straight and said.
"Is Uncle Wang okay?" Chu Liuchen reached out and touched his head and asked lazily.
"Your Highness, Prince Cheng, has nothing serious to do. He is just frightened!" the leader of the guards said, frowning secretly. If this matter cannot be found out, it must be another accident. The emperor may not be able to handle the matter.
The incidents that happened to several princes in the past have made people nervous. They are afraid that if there is another slight disturbance, even the most quiet and inactive His Highness, Prince Cheng, will be in trouble. This must be someone plotting something secretly.
What are you planning? Needless to say! The leader of the guards is under great pressure!
"Since I was just frightened, it's nothing serious. I'm also quite frightened!" Chu Liuchen said casually, "Should I go back to the palace or home at this time?"
This question was too direct. The leader of the guards smiled bitterly and said tactfully: "Your Highness, King Chen, the Queen Mother and the Emperor are worried about your safety, so please go back to the palace first!"
Something like this happened, and King Chen was involved in the center of the matter. Even though everyone thought that King Chen was completely unlucky, they had to ask.
The leader of the guards also had a big head. He really didn't dare to ask casual questions about this King Chen. He could only say politely that it would be most appropriate for the emperor to ask him himself after entering the palace. As for other things, he didn't dare to ask too much. Participate in.
Having been in the palace for so long, the leader of the guards certainly knows the importance of King Chen. If something happens to King Chen and King Chen is involved, King Chen will be fine. But if something happens to King Chen and King Cheng is involved, the matter will be minor. No, should he be glad that it was King Cheng who had the accident and not the more noble King Chen?
The commander of the guards still has no idea why the extremely sick King Chen got involved, which makes the matter even more difficult to investigate.
"Uncle Wang, won't you return to the palace with me?" Chu Liuchen smiled gently. Although his voice was gentle, it carried a kind of majesty that could not be ignored.
The guard commander did not dare not answer.
"His Royal Highness Prince Cheng will naturally enter the palace too!"
"That's good. I accidentally thought of this house and wanted to enjoy the scenery here. But I don't know how Uncle Wang came to the edge of my yard. I don't know when I became neighbors with Uncle Wang. ." Chu Liuchen stood up, raised his eyebrows and smiled, his face becoming more gentle and elegant.
These words made the guard commander's face change drastically, and his hand unconsciously hit his sword, making a crisp "clang" sound.
Chu Liuchen's eyes fell on the sword of the guard commander, and his face suddenly turned cold.
Xiao Xuanzi came over and kicked the commander of the guards so hard that he rolled to the ground and screamed in fright: "Your Highness, King Chen, it was a misunderstanding. I bumped into this by accident. There is no harm in it!"
