Chapter 495: The Woman Who Ran Away From Marriage

The sky didn't know when it began to rain. The rain was not heavy and brought a bit of coolness, sweeping away the heat of late summer and early autumn.

Standing at the door of Yuhui Nunnery, Wen Xichi looked back at the tall nunnery and Buddhist temple behind him. The layers of Buddhist temples were a little more leisurely under the drizzle, but this was not the scene in his dream. .

There was also a scene of drizzle in the dream, but I was lying in front of the couch by the window, and there was a slender figure of a woman sitting next to me. I couldn't see her face clearly, but I knew that she was giving him medicine tenderly, and stretched out her hand to gently He wiped his forehead carefully, then smiled, his eyes watery.

In the dream, he couldn't see clearly who the woman was, but inexplicably he thought of Shao Wanru.

After waking up, I unconsciously compared the figure in the dream with Shao Wanru, but in fact there was no comparison at all.

The Shao Wanru he saw was the Shao Wanru from two years ago. Not to mention the lack of stature, even the body shape was different from the woman in the dream. But for some reason, he felt that this person seemed to be Shao Wanru, but he had grown up. Later, Shao Wanru took advantage of this opportunity to go to Yuhui Temple. He wanted to meet Shao Wanru and verify whether she was the woman in his dream.

The woman in the dream didn't actually happen very often, but the three consecutive dreams about this woman made Wen Xichi want to find out!

He stretched out his hand to touch his head and saw the boy holding the umbrella for him. He felt inexplicably that he was really worrying too much. It was just a dream, but he actually took it seriously, especially when he associated her with someone completely different from him. It doesn't matter, Shao Wanru's body is really a joke.

In vain, I have always been clear and clear in the past, but now I am confused.

I looked back at Yu Hui'an behind me, but I don't know what happened to that smart-looking girl from two years ago? But no matter what, it has nothing to do with him. After all, her current status is extraordinary, but if she needs help in the future, he will definitely help.

Don't say that he misunderstood her, just say that she helped him understand Gu Xishu's true face, and he should thank her, but this gratitude does not necessarily require meeting her in person. There are differences between men and women. There was even a possibility that there would never be another chance to see each other again, and my heart felt inexplicably heavy.

Then he smiled helplessly!

"Sir, are you going back home now?" the coachman asked as he saw Wen Xi galloping into the car and whipped him.

"Go to Prince Yue's Mansion!" Wen Xichi muttered for a moment, putting all the messy thoughts behind him.

Although what happened at Yu Hui'an was handled by the Ministry of Punishment, in the end the power fell into the hands of King Yue, and the matter had to be reported to King Yue in the end.

Originally, this matter was a matter for the Minister of Punishment. Although Wen Xichi was important, he was only an official of the Ministry of Punishment. However, he had good writing skills. The Minister of Punishment was very fond of this aspect of him, and recently asked him to draft a plan for this matter. I came over with a detailed report and sent it to Prince Yue’s Mansion for Prince Yue to present to the Emperor.

Although the incident at Yuhui Nunnery was a big deal and alarmed the emperor, no trace was found afterwards. It is not known where the man in black who appeared in Yuhui Nunnery that night came from or what his purpose was. There was only one person inside the high wall. There is no shortage, except for a few dead ones, the rest are all there.

Regarding a matter that had not been clarified but was reported to the emperor, the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment was also very panicked, so he decided to submit the document to King Yue first. Wen Xichi put it bluntly that he was a ghostwriter. , errand boy.

The carriage driver responded to the order and turned the carriage and drove the carriage towards Prince Yue's Mansion down the mountain.

Wen Xichi raised the car curtain again and turned his eyes involuntarily to the depths of Yuhui Temple. It has been more than two years since Shao Wanru entered Yuhui Temple. In another half a year, he should be able to go down the mountain. Look at the Xingguo Palace. It won't be calm. My house is adjacent to Duke Xingguo's house, or we can help each other with some small things.

Wen Xichi wanted to help here in order to repay Shao Wanru for his kindness in the beginning, but unexpectedly, things were unpredictable, and he ended up on the opposite side of Shao Wanru.

Yuhui Nunnery became quiet again, and Shao Wanru was very happy. After Qing'er came to report that all the Ministry of Punishment personnel had evacuated outside Yuhui Nunnery, Shao Wanru came out and walked around.

It was drizzling outside, making the entire mountain look like a layer of fog. The mist made people feel more relaxed and happy, and the mountain looked ethereal.

The rain in Yuhui'an is very beautiful. Standing on the corridor and looking at everything outside the courtyard, the scenery seems to be much broader.

The courtyard was very quiet, and the maids were all busy with their own business. No one came to disturb Shao Wan's peaceful mood at the moment, but then there was a bang on the door of the courtyard.

"Go and have a look!" Shao Wanru said to Qing'er who was standing on the corridor.

Qing'er responded and ran to the courtyard door. As soon as she opened it, a person rushed in. She was so frightened that she took two steps back and almost fell. She opened the door and looked at the woman in front of her in astonishment.

"Who are you?" Qing'er didn't know him. She just came to Shao Wanru and was not familiar with the people in the nunnery.

"Is your lady here?" The woman looked a little embarrassed. She raised her eyes and saw Shao Wanru in the corridor, and hurriedly ran over.

"Miss Mo, what's wrong with you?" Yu Jie knew her and hurriedly stepped forward to say hello.

It was a woman named Mo Qiuyi who also lived in Yuhui Nunnery and was the one who confessed her mistake that day. She had lived on this mountain for a while, longer than Shao Wanru. She said she was with Yuhui Nunnery. A certain master was a relative, and there were no other relatives alive, so he went to Yuhui Temple to practice spiritual cultivation. He had met Shao Wanru a few times in the past, but he had not been in contact with her twice.

"Miss Shao Wu, can you do me a favor!" Mo Qiuyi came over and bowed to Shao Wanru first. Her face looked a little pale, her hair was warm and sticking to her forehead, and her original beautiful face was also covered up. .

"What's the matter?" Shao Wanru looked at her up and down and said gently.

"A sister from my hometown who I had a good relationship with in the past came to Yuhui'an and wanted to stay with me for a few days. Unexpectedly, something like this suddenly happened. Although the people from the Ministry of Punishment left, they were still interrogating me at the foot of the mountain. Awesome, can you please trouble Miss Shao Wu and ask Princess Ruian to help take people down the mountain when she comes down?"

Mo Qiuyi wiped the rain off her head and took a breath.

"Didn't the people from the Criminal Department see her when we were on the mountain?" Shao Wanru looked at Mo Qiuyi's anxious face and asked in confusion.

If the investigation has been carried out on the mountain, even if people from the Ministry of Punishments are there when they come down, they will just conduct a routine inquiry.

"I asked her to hide before... She came to my place to find me... She also wanted to stay with me temporarily... She was forced to marry an old man in his seventies or eighties as a second wife at home." Mo Qiuyi Biting her lip, she said helplessly, "I don't dare let anyone see her. Whenever someone comes to inquire, I tell her to go to the back mountain."

The mountain behind Yuhui Nunnery is actually very large, and there are some scenic views, but there are still some places that are inaccessible. Even though Yuhui Nunnery is nearby, there are cliffs in those places that are too dense, even for those with dexterous hands and feet. , is also very dangerous, and the nuns in Yuhui Nunnery will not go there.

"You asked her to hide in the mountains behind? It's too dangerous there! If you do anything wrong, you will lose your life!" Shao Wanru's watery eyes slightly raised, astonished.

"But there is nothing we can do. She said that if she is really found and sent back to her home, she would rather die than get married." Mo Qiuyi said helplessly.

No one would want a twenty-year-old girl to marry a seventy-year-old girl. It would indeed feel like life would be worse than death.

Shao Wanru was silent for a moment, but did not agree immediately.

"I heard that Miss Shao Wu is the granddaughter of the eldest princess Ruian. If she can get the eldest princess to go down the mountain with her, she will definitely be able to avoid the investigation of the Ministry of Justice. I hope Miss Shao Wu will kindly help!" Mo Qiuyi said deeply to Shao Wanru Yi Li, regardless of his embarrassed appearance, said eagerly.

Shao Wanru's heart moved, and a trace of hesitation slipped through his eyes.

"Miss Shao Wu, I beg you, you are practicing filial piety on the mountain and keeping filial piety for your parents. It shows that you are a filial person. You will never leave a helpless girl without saving her. If she is really killed, She was caught, but she really didn’t want to live anymore. She was very violent when she was young, and that’s why she ran away from marriage. If...if Miss Shao Wu didn’t save her, I...I’m afraid she would go to some extreme again! "

Mo Qiuyi's tears fell one by one, looking extremely pitiful.

"Miss Mo, I'm afraid it won't be convenient for my grandmother, but if I can wait a few days, when people come to my house, I can ask them to take Miss Mo's fellow countryman down the mountain, okay?" Shao Wanru? asked softly.

"Miss Shao Wu, I know that your residence belongs to Duke Xingguo's Palace, but how can the servants of Duke Xingguo's Palace compare with the chariot of Princess Ruian? It will definitely be safer if we have the protection of Princess Ruian."

Mo Qiuyi wiped away her tears and looked at Shao Wanru pleadingly, "Besides, this matter should be done sooner rather than later. If anyone finds out that she is here, I am afraid her life will be lost!"

"Where is Miss Mo's hometown? Is it very close to here?" Shao Wanru asked in surprise.

"It's indeed not very far, so I'm particularly afraid of being discovered. Please have Miss Shao Wu's mercy!" Mo Qiuyi said vaguely.

This time, even Qu Le sensed something was wrong. He walked a few steps behind Shao Wanru and looked at Mo Qiuyi with burning eyes. He was very suspicious of Miss Mo, who was originally a close neighbor.

Is this Miss Mo a little too eager? Is it possible that this matter is really so urgent that people of all ages will immediately chase her up the mountain?

"Miss Mo, I can't do anything about my grandmother. If Miss Mo can wait, I will arrange for your fellow countryman to leave in two days, and no one will find out, which will harm your fellow countryman." Shao Wanru was gentle. He said, his expression becoming more and more gentle.

Mo Qiuyi's expression changed, and she stood up straight: "Miss Shao Wu, please help if you can. If you really don't want to help, just don't help. Why bother to find so many reasons to prevaricate."

After saying that, he turned around and ran out.

"Hey, miss, why is she like this!" Qu Le wanted to stop Mo Qiuyi angrily, but she ran out of the yard long ago and disappeared.

"Miss, what does she want to do? She can't even wait for a moment. Even if her fellow villager doesn't want to get married, there's no need to be so hasty. I heard that Miss Mo's hometown is far away from here. Even if she finds her fellow villager in the mountains, she can't wait for a moment. You won’t get the news so quickly and come here to arrest someone, besides, the lady also promised that she will definitely help her!”

Yujie looked further and couldn't help but ask questions at this time.

"I don't know what she wants to do, but this is not a good time to involve grandma!" Shao Wanru's face darkened. Looking at the vast raindrops, he suddenly remembered something, something that had happened to her in her previous life. It was a completely unrelated matter, and his eyes couldn't help but become cold and stern.

There is something wrong with this Mo Qiuyi!
