Quick Wear: Lure the Cold-Hearted Buddhist Back Home

"Let Si Mo come in and have a bite, don't let him starve."

Yun Jue, who was placed on the bed, said in a low voice, and Fo Youqing nodded, "Okay, you should have a good rest first."

After kissing Yun Jue on the forehead again, Fo Youqing walked out.

When I opened the door, Si Mo was standing at the door, looking pitiful and unwanted.

"Stop pretending to be pathetic and come in to eat."

Si Mo hurriedly followed him in, secretly glanced around, breathed a sigh of relief, and sat down next to the table. Fo Youqing asked the servants to bring another set of bowls and chopsticks. Yun Jue only ate a small half of the dishes on the table.

"When will Xiaoyuer come back?"

Si Mo drank a sip of soup before asking.

"It will take another three or four days to return from Miao Country."

Fo Youqing lowered his eyes and picked up the leftovers of Yun Jue.

"Miao country? Has Xiang found out?"

Si Mo perked up instantly, and suddenly thought of something, his expression changed, "I remember that the Imperial Concubine is a princess of the Miao Kingdom."

"Ah."

Foyouqing said “hmm” calmly, and continued, “That incense is only accessible to the royal family of the Miao Kingdom.”

"But the first one to die was the Third Prince. The Imperial Concubine can't kill her own son."

Si Mo found it unbelievable. Although that woman had many tricks, she couldn't kill her own son. Besides, the succession to the throne depended on this son.

"There's something fishy about this."

Fo Youqing shook his head, a person had already emerged in his mind, but if it was really him, then no one would be able to handle the case, and in the end a scapegoat might be pushed out.

Si Mo still couldn't believe it. Even a tiger wouldn't eat its own cubs. Besides, what was the purpose of doing all this? Why was only the brain missing?

After dinner, Si Mo did not leave immediately. He sat in the pavilion and played chess with Fo Youqing.

"Are you still in touch with the master?"

Fo Youqing shook his head, "I am no longer a member of the master's sect."

"Master sent me a message some time ago, asking me to persuade you again."

Si Mo smiled and said, "You are the master's most proud disciple. He always misses you."

Fo Youqing paused for a moment, then slowly put down the chess piece. "Is he okay?"

"It's good. Everything tastes delicious."

Si Mo didn't seem to notice anything unusual about Fo Youqing, but he sighed in his heart.

"My Lord, someone has come from the palace and said that the Emperor has summoned the Princess to the palace."

A guard came to deliver a message. Fo Youqing frowned slightly. What was the purpose of summoning Yun Jue to the palace at this time?

"Don't go down yet, I'll go take a look."

"Then I'll go back first."

Si Mo also stood up and flew directly out of the Regent's Palace.

Fo Youqing returned to the house and saw that Yun Jue was already dressed. He was slightly stunned, "You know?"

"Know what? I was just about to come find you guys."

Yun Jue was puzzled, and then he was embraced by Fo Youqing, "The old emperor summoned you to the palace."

A hint of disgust flashed in Yun Jue's eyes. This old emperor was really restless. However, this was a good opportunity to find out more and prove his guess.

"Let's go then."

As a result, Fo Youqing remained motionless, "I don't want you to go. I always feel that the old emperor has bad intentions."

Yun Jue raised his head and tapped Fo Youqing's lips. "It's right that he has no good intentions. When has he ever had good intentions towards me? Believe me."

Fo Youqing hugged Yun Jue tightly, "I will accompany you, I will follow you secretly."

Thinking of that scene, Yun Jue found it funny, but he still nodded, otherwise he might really not be able to get out.

Yun Jue arrived at the front hall, and the eunuch who followed him entered the palace just like last time, but the place where he was summoned this time was actually the side hall next to the old emperor's bedroom.

Fo Youqing hid aside, staring at Yun Jue closely.

Yun Jue entered the side hall. The old emperor was sitting on a chair, staring at Yun Jue who walked in. His eyes flashed. Why did his son seem to be getting more and more handsome? The old emperor could no longer remember what Yun Jue's biological mother looked like, but he thought that she should not be very pretty.

"My son, I will meet my father."

Yun Jue said he was paying his respects, but he didn't even show any sign of greeting. The old emperor snorted coldly, "Little Eleven is becoming more and more unruly. He doesn't even know how to greet you."

"I wonder what the emperor wants to talk to me about?"

Yun Jue shuddered, as if he was frightened, but still asked timidly. The old emperor choked and became furious, but he couldn't get angry at this time.

"It seems that Xiao Shiyi has forgotten everything I told you to do."

"I dare not. I did not find anything unusual in the Regent's Palace."

Yun Jue said hurriedly, looking at the old emperor timidly, then quickly lowered his head, as if he was frightened.

Looking at Yun Jue like this, Fo Youqing curled the corners of his lips. So this is how the lady behaves in front of the old emperor, pretending to be timid and scared, but without any manners at all. The old emperor must be mad to death.

"waste!"

The old emperor slapped the back of his chair and shouted angrily, his eyes fixed on Yun Jue.

Yun Jue was so frightened that he took a step back, his body even trembling. He raised his head and looked at the old emperor with tearful eyes, "Father, it is my son who is useless."

The old emperor was stunned for a moment when he saw Yun Jue's expression, but he came to his senses in an instant and looked at Yun Jue angrily, "I think it's useless to keep you."

"Why? Father, do you also want to kill me?"

Yun Jue looked at the old emperor, whose eyes instantly sank, "What are you talking about?"

Yun Jue took a step closer, "Will the emperor kill me like he killed my third, fourth, and thirteenth brothers?"

"presumptuous!"

A trace of panic flashed across the old emperor's eyes, and then he stood up and shouted, "I think you are crazy, what are you talking about!"

Yun Jue curled the corners of his lips slightly. As expected, he had guessed it right. Fo Youqing in secret was also shocked. Although he had guessed it, he did not expect Yun Jue to be so bold that he dared to directly question the old emperor.

Looking at Yun Jue's expression, the old emperor's face was gloomy. His son, who pretended to be timid and fearful on the surface, was actually very intelligent. Although he was surprised for a moment, he had already made up his mind that he could not keep this son.

"Xiao Shiyi, I think you are disturbed and unconscious. I'd better send you back to the Regent's Palace first."

The old emperor sat back down and spoke gloomily.

"Then thank you, Father."

Yun Jue simply stopped pretending and turned around and left. The old emperor smashed the teacup behind him, but Yun Jue turned a deaf ear and didn't even look back.

When they left the palace, Fo Youqing was already waiting at the palace gate. He hurriedly stepped forward and embraced Yun Jue. Only then did he feel relieved. His wife was too bold. If the old emperor directly attacked her, it would be difficult to deal with.

"I told you I'm fine, don't worry."

Yun Jue kissed Fo Youqing soothingly. Fo Youqing said nothing and simply carried Yun Jue onto the horse. Looking at Fo Youqing like this, Yun Jue thought to himself, it’s over, it seems she is angry, and it feels like he has to say goodbye to his waist again.

After getting on the carriage, Yun Jue said again, "It seems that the murderer is really the old emperor, but I don't know why he did it."

Fo Youqing just stared at Yun Jue without saying a word. The more Yun Jue spoke, the lower his voice became, and he looked at Fo Youqing with grievance.
