At this moment, a young palace maid hurried in from outside and said, "Your Majesty, it's time for you to copy the scriptures. I have prepared the pen and ink for you!"
Wang Yanyan explained softly, "Because the emperor is unconscious, I took the initiative to copy the prayer sutra for him!"
Lin Yiwan couldn't stop her, so she let her leave with the palace maid first.
She hurried to Chongming Hall and saw two burly monks guarding the door.
The two men were extremely alert. The moment they saw her, they held their long sticks in front of her and said, "No outsiders are allowed to enter this hall. Please leave immediately!"
Lin Yiwan said calmly, "I'm here to ask to see Master Zhiqing. Please go in and let him know!"
The two men looked at each other and said, "Our brother is praying for the emperor and cannot be interrupted. If you insist on seeing him, you must kneel at this door for two hours!"
Lin Yiwan subconsciously frowned. "Let her kneel at the entrance of Chongming Hall?" This was where Xiao Yu used to live.
She would never kneel down to him!
Thinking of this, she said without hesitation: "Since Master Zhiqing is busy, I won't bother you anymore!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she turned around and left quickly.
Unexpectedly, two monks blocked her way.
One of them spoke first: "Since you are here, you must kowtow to my junior brother before leaving. He is a disciple of Buddha, and all ordinary people in this world must respect him!"
A cold light flashed in Lin Yiwan's eyes. These two people were so brave.
She asked coldly, "Do you know who I am?"
The man immediately replied, "No matter who you are, even if the emperor himself comes, you must be respectful to my junior brother. Can you be more honorable than him?"
Lin Yiwan immediately sensed the trap in his words, which was intended to trick her into saying something arrogant.
I have to say, this move is really vicious. Either she kneels down, or she will be branded as having surpassed the emperor.
After a moment's silence, she narrowed her eyes and said, "Buddha is merciful. He never forces people to do anything. Since your disciple of Buddha is forcing me to kowtow and kneel, it seems that he is not worthy of being a disciple of Buddha!"
The two men's expressions suddenly changed, and they shouted in unison: "How dare you!"
As soon as the words fell, each of them took a long stick and hit her shoulder hard.
In a flash, Lin Yiwan stabbed the silver needle hidden between her fingers left and right.
"Ah!" The two men let out a short scream in unison and subconsciously dropped the long sticks in their hands to the ground.
Seeing their miserable state, Lin Yiwan said coldly, "How dare these villains? They think they can pretend to be high-ranking Buddhist monks just by shaving their heads! Where are the Imperial Guards? Capture them all!"
Several guards quickly appeared and walked quickly towards the two men.
At this time, a shout came from the hall: "Wait, who dares to be rude in front of me?"
He walked out with a frown on his face, wearing a monk's robe. He looked handsome, but his eyes contained a sharpness that did not match his age.
The two monks quickly saluted him and said, "Junior Brother, it was that woman who disrespected you first. That's why we had no choice but to attack her!"
Young Monk Zhiqing nodded slightly, then turned to look at Lin Yiwan and said, "This is the first time I've seen such arrogance and dominance in the palace, female donor. I wonder whose influence you're relying on? You don't even take the emperor's distinguished guest seriously!"
Lin Yiwan had already concluded at this moment that this little monk was definitely not a good person. Since he dared to provoke her, don't blame her for being more ruthless.
She said in a cold voice: "Now that the emperor is unconscious, I suspect someone has harmed him, so I will investigate everyone around him, including you, my distinguished guest!"
Zhiqing frowned. He didn't expect that the person in front of him was so smart. He immediately thought of words to refute him.
He said contemptuously, "I am a distinguished guest invited into the palace by the Emperor. How could I harm him? Besides, I copy prayer scriptures for him every day, hoping that he will recover and wake up soon!"
Lin Yiwan sneered, "Since you've copied so many prayer books, why hasn't the emperor woken up yet? Or are you just a fake monk? You're lurking around the emperor for other purposes?"
Zhiqing's expression suddenly changed, and he shouted, "You, stop talking nonsense!"
Lin Yiwan was determined to take him down, so how could she be intimidated by him?
At this moment, she had already concluded that this little monk was not a good person at all, and the emperor's unexplained coma must be related to him.
She quickly ordered, "Come here, search Chongming Hall and make sure you find evidence that this fake monk is plotting to murder the emperor!"
"Yes!" Many royal guards rushed into the hall.
The young monk Zhiqing had obviously not expected her to forcefully search the palace. He angrily scolded her, "How dare you! Are you all going to disrespect the Buddha?"
Lin Yiwan spoke slowly, "You also said that we should respect the Buddha, not a fake monk like you who is falsely preaching the Buddha's teachings!"
She walked quickly into the hall and threw a small porcelain bottle under the incense basin without leaving a trace.
Soon, the Royal Guards found it and picked it up.
He said anxiously: "Madam Hou, I found this thing!"
The moment Zhiqing saw the porcelain vase, surprise flashed in his eyes. He argued anxiously: "This is not mine at all. You can't slander me at will!"
Lin Yiwan spoke slowly, "How could it be hidden under your incense basin if it wasn't yours? Now that the evidence is irrefutable, don't even think about denying it!"
Zhiqing was restrained and his face turned ashen with anger.
He gritted his teeth and scolded: "You are so presumptuous! If the emperor wakes up, he will definitely be angry. I am his honored guest!"
Lin Yiwan spread her hands and said, "But the emperor is still unconscious. As his aunt, I cannot let go of any murderer who might murder him!"
Zhiqing's eyes widened in shock: "You are Lin Yiwan, the daughter of Prince Li?"
She nodded: "That's right, you can't live in Chongming Palace. Go to the prison and rest for a few days. We can discuss everything after the emperor wakes up!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she ordered people to take Zhiqing and the other two monks away.
As soon as she returned to the emperor's bedroom, she met Queen Wang with a solemn expression.
She anxiously asked, "Madam Hou, you actually arrested Zhiqing? He is the person the emperor values most. I'm afraid he will blame you!"
Lin Yiwan explained: "Don't panic, I can take care of this matter. I think the emperor will wake up soon, trust me!"
Wang Yanyan looked at her in shock: "Why are you so sure?"
Lin Yiwan replied slowly, "Just wait!"
As night fell, the entire bedroom fell into silence.
I saw a young eunuch sneaking into the hall, holding a silk handkerchief in his hand. When no one was around, he covered the emperor's mouth and nose with it.
At that moment, Lin Yiwan and Prince Li rushed in, grabbed his wrists, and roared, "What are you doing? You're so bold! You actually dared to murder the Emperor!"
