Chapter 425 Fear
The unknown energy on his body made Ling Chu a little scared.
The number of people killed today was dozens of times greater than the number of people she and the original owner had killed in their two lifetimes combined.
If she hadn't saved the lives of more than 30,000 people in Yangqu County when the flood came, and had a lot of merit and virtue to protect herself, she would have died long ago.
But even so, after killing so many assassins this time, most of the merits gained before they had time to keep warm have been offset.
Ling Chu couldn't imagine how terrifying it would be for him to become a murderous maniac in the future if he couldn't control that energy.
Seeing that her face was pale, Ning Chuyi's heart twisted and she looked at Qingfeng aside, "Your Majesty, do you know what's going on?"
Qingfeng glanced at him, wondering what happened to Mr. Ning and Xiaosi along the way. The junior sister didn't even avoid him for such a big thing.
As for the situation of the junior sister, Qingfeng looked at Ling Chu seriously, "If I guess correctly, after you were sent to Xuanqing Temple by the mother-in-law next to Dong, the master put a seal on you.
As for why the master wants to seal the energy in you, senior brother doesn't know. We can only wait until we get to Xuanqing Temple and ask the master for clarification. "
Qingfeng regretted it again. It was all because he was young and careless, and his master's words always went in one ear and out the other. If he had asked a few more questions when he heard his master telling his senior brother about his junior master, he wouldn't be as helpless as he is now.
Seeing that Ling Chu's expression was not good, Qingfeng pretended to be relaxed and said, "Although you killed those assassins, Lord Ning was right. Those people who dared to risk the world's disapproval to assassinate the emperor deserve to die, and you don't need to feel guilty.
As for your situation, there is no need to worry. I had already written to the master when I left the capital, and he and his senior brother would also go back to Guanli.
Senior brother will accompany you back to Xuanqing Temple and nothing will happen to you, so just relax. "
Qingfeng didn't lie.
Originally, the Dingyuan Palace held a hairpin ceremony for Ling Chu, and he was supposed to attend. Just because he knew that his parents planned to use the banquet at Dingyuan Palace to find a wife for him.
But he didn't want to get married yet, and he didn't want to be dragged by his parents to see the girl at Ling Chu's banquet, so he didn't go to Dingyuan Prince's Mansion.
Instead, he made excuses and left home.
It was several days later when he learned that the emperor suddenly left the capital for Xuanqing Temple and took Ling Chu with him.
Qingfeng didn't know what happened, but he told Ling Chu a fortune, and the fortune revealed great misfortune. So he first wrote a letter to his master, informing the emperor and his junior sister about their departure from the capital, and attached the hexagram to the letter.
Then he hurriedly left Beijing and chased him all the way.
Ling Chu originally wanted to know about the original owner from Qingfeng, but he didn't know. But now she has slowly calmed down.
Since Master Xuan Yi had placed a seal on the original owner, he must know what was going on. Now we can only wait until we get to Xuanqing Temple to ask more questions.
Seeing that Ling Chu's complexion began to improve, Ning Chuyi and Qingfeng breathed a sigh of relief.
The emperor's face was livid at the moment.
After the assassins were killed by Ling Chu, Commander Pang led his people to clean up the bodies.
As a result, after pulling off the masks of those people, Commander Pang recognized that the leader turned out to be the Minister of War, a general under Xu Cheng.
The Minister of War is the queen's father and the prince's grandfather. This assassin belongs to Xu Cheng, so it is self-evident who sent him.
The emperor was filled with rage.
Xiao Yuanzhao was his first child. He had worked hard to raise him since he was a child and had high hopes for him. He had been granted the title of crown prince long ago, and now he was asked to supervise the country.
Now he sent people to assassinate his father.
What does he want to do?
Could it be that he couldn't wait any longer and wanted to let him die outside while he was away from Beijing so that he could ascend to the throne as soon as possible?
Commander Pang stood on one side, his eyes lowered and silent, even breathing very lightly. I am afraid that if I am not careful, I will become a fish in the pond that will cause disaster to the city gate.
When he saw Ning Chuyi and others walking over, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Knowing that the assassin was a member of the Ministry of War, Ning Chuyi was not surprised. As the commander of the Royal Guards, he knew much more than the emperor.
I have known for a long time that those princes were very ambitious. In order to obtain the supreme position, they suppressed each other in various ways, overtly and covertly, and used endless methods such as poisoning and assassination.
The Minister of War is actually not as loyal as he appears.
Now that the emperor has left Beijing, it is not surprising that the prince has a different heart.
Ning Chuyi said nothing about this.
His status is awkward and nothing he says is appropriate. He also believed that the emperor made his own decisions freely in his heart and there was no need for him to say anything.
As expected, the emperor did not speak.
But when his eyes fell on Ning Chuyi, his expression was a little complicated.
But no one knew what was going on in his mind.
After a long while, the emperor raised his head and glanced at the sky.
Seeing that the Forbidden Army had disposed of the corpses of the assassins, the emperor gave the order to set off.
The rest of the journey went smoothly.
Every time they stopped to rest, Ling Chu and Qingfeng would make divinations and choose a suitable journey to avoid further accidents.
With the escort of the two brothers and sisters, the group finally arrived at Xuanqing Temple half a month later.
Fengchen stopped at the gate of the Taoist temple, looking at the three simple and thick characters on the plaque, and listening to the melodious bells, Ling Chu's heart, which had been hanging all the way, finally relaxed slowly.
Hearing the commotion, a Taoist priest came out to greet him.
The Taoist priest was very surprised to see the emperor and a group of forbidden troops. But when he saw Qingfeng and Lingchu, he became happy again.
The emperor couldn't wait to see Ning Chuchu. After asking about her location, he immediately went to see her.
Ling Chu was relieved when she arrived at Xuanqing Temple. She didn't intend to care about the emperor's affairs.
She was planning to go to see the master with Qingfeng, but she was told that Xuanyi Zhenren and the other two brothers had not returned yet.
Ling Chu sighed and could only go down to rest first.
Her body had reached its limit after traveling all the way. She just wanted to sleep well for a few days and nights.
But I don't know what the emperor thinks.
Halfway through the journey, he actually asked Eunuch An to turn back.
Not only did he call Ning Chuyi, but he also asked her to go with him.
Ling Chu was very surprised.
She could understand that the emperor asked Ning Chuyi to see Ning Chuchu. But why did he ask her, an outsider, to go as well?
She had no interest in the emperor and Ning Chuchu's affairs and didn't want to go at all.
Eunuch An could guess Ling Chu's thoughts, but he couldn't say anything about the emperor's decision.
"Princess, this is the emperor's order. Let's go quickly, don't let the emperor wait anxiously."
Ning Chuyi didn't move. Seeing Ling Chu frowning, he said silently, "If you don't want to go, don't force it."
Ling Chu twitched her lips. The emperor's order was equivalent to an imperial decree. She couldn't disobey it.
Forget it. After all, she is Ning Chuyi's biological mother. It's her duty to say hello. Go and see her earlier and rest earlier.
"Let's go."
Seeing her agree, Ning Chuyi was a little surprised. He was stunned for a while before he raised his feet to follow.
Qingfeng looked at their backs as they left, frowning.
He didn't understand the emperor's attitude towards his junior sister along the way, and now he asked her to see that Ning Chuchu again.
He didn't want his junior sister to go, but he couldn't stop her.
Qingfeng sighed and could only hope that his master would come back soon.
