The king is a disabled doctor, the court is in chaos, and the princess carries a gun and kills peopl

Yuan Zhen was shocked and hurriedly grabbed Lu Shufang's arm to ask.

"Do you know when Li Zhenting plans to dig the grave?"

Lu Shufang shook her head with difficulty. She really knew nothing.

Recently, the palace has been under tight security, and all people entering and leaving must be strictly checked and registered.

What troubled her most was that the carrier pigeons she used to send messages all died overnight for unknown reasons. She was extremely anxious but had no other choice but to come to Taohua Temple in person to inform Yuanqing of the situation.

What puzzled her was that it had been five or six days since Li Zhenting requested permission to reinvestigate the case of Tian Wanyue's death, but he had remained silent.

He didn't even go to the palace to inquire about an auspicious date.

Could it be that his plans had changed? Or had he become suspicious of her people and was investigating Empress Tian's death and helping her soul to rest in peace, without even wanting to use the Imperial Household Minister?

The numerous mysteries weighed heavily on her like a mountain, making it difficult for her to breathe.

Fortunately, I finally met Yuan Zhen today. When I saw him, I felt a sense of security in my heart, and I felt more at ease instantly.

"Shufang, don't panic. I'm taking care of everything. The better to deal with this sooner rather than later. Since Li Zhenting hasn't taken action yet, why not take action today and break the soul-locking formation in Tian Wanyue's tomb first, so he won't even notice..."

Yuan Zhen comforted her softly and smiled contemptuously, but his hands were already restless.

This figure is far inferior to those women he slept with! If it weren't for his grand ambitions, he would be too lazy to serve her!

He will accomplish great things and inherit the throne in the future! Anyone who wants to trip him up and deliberately block his way must be tired of living! If it weren't for that cuckolded king Jiajing who sent Li Zhenting to Taibai Mountain to learn martial arts early on, how could he be alive today!

He is still too young!

A lewd smile appeared on his face, and his movements became faster and faster. Lv Shufang closed her eyes tightly and groaned from the corner of her mouth...

While the house was enjoying the beautiful scenery, Nangong Qing and the little cat in white clothes had successfully entered Taohua Temple through the small gate of the temple.

It is said that Bai Lianyi's martial arts skills are really amazing. He walked very fast on the mountain road.

Even when he arrived at the temple, he remained calm and looked around vigilantly with his thin eyebrows and long eyes.

Because Lv Shufang had gone into the temple to burn incense and pray for blessings today, the main hall had been completely sealed off, and ordinary people couldn't enter at all. Bai Lianyi and Nangong Qing discussed whether it would be better to go to the side hall first to inquire, perhaps there would be some unexpected gains.

The two of them held the child's hand and walked towards the side hall.

"When you have nothing to do, go and see the beggars on Chang'an Street who have nothing to eat, the wounded soldiers with broken legs and arms who have been relieved from their duties at the border, and the people who are full and have nothing to eat and come to the temples during festivals!

You don't have enough money, yet you still want to prepare good food and wine in the small kitchen, and even replace all the bedding in the bedroom. Are you here to burn incense or to enjoy yourself?"

"I'm so damn unlucky. A great monk has to serve a woman..."

"I've had enough! If it weren't for Master's last words, I'd fucking give a damn about you, old woman..."

Hearing the indistinct mumbling, Nangong Qing couldn't help but smile.

I saw a fat monk with a thick waist, chopping pork with an axe in his hand. He chopped the pork with all his strength as if he was losing his temper, and the mumbling in his mouth became louder and louder.

"I'm a monk who chants sutras and prays to Buddha, but I kill animals every day! Amitabha..."

Nangong Qing couldn't help but frown and exchanged glances with Bai Lianyi.

A monk kills animals every day?

In other words, the fat monk wasn't chopping meat today simply to entertain Empress Lu? Could it be that there were other people in Taohua Temple who needed to eat meat? It seemed that Taohua Temple was truly extraordinary.

"Uncle, I want to eat meat too..."

Just as Nangong Qing was thinking about how to strike up a conversation with the fat monk, the little civet cat suddenly blinked its eyes, walked forward a few steps, squatted down next to the big monk, raised its smiling face and spoke in a childish voice.

"Oh my! Whose little one is this that's escaped? Why are you two girls running into the temple? Hide quickly... If that old man sees you..."

The fat monk looked up and noticed Nangong Qing and Bai Lianyi, and gave Bai Lianyi a look of disgust.

"This fair-skinned girl with thin eyebrows and long eyes looks seductive at first glance. How can anything good happen to her in the hands of that old pervert?"

"But this girl, with her crooked head and a big mole on her mouth, would make even the old pervert feel sick..."

Nangong Qing was immediately happy. She didn't expect Xuan Qingshan to give her such an ugly face. Being ugly does have its advantages.

"Master, we're new here and don't know anything. We just heard that the Buddha in the temple is very effective. My sister has been weak since she was a child, and she often has headaches and fevers. I want to ask the Buddha for protection..."

"We've come a long way, and we'd like to ask the master chef to help us settle in and give us some pointers..."

Nangong Qing took out a silver dollar from his bag and quietly put it into the fat monk's hand.

Money makes the world go round, and this is always true no matter in which dimension.

"Look at you, look at you, aren't you being so awkward? I'm just a soft-hearted person! Look at this clever little girl, so lovable! Well, I'll put you three sisters in the empty room next to mine!"

"As an older girl, please bear with me. Change into men's clothes during these few days in the temple. Sigh, who made me worry so much..."

The fat-headed monk muttered as he packed up the chopped meat and led the three people back.

Bai Lianyi secretly gave Nangong Qing a thumbs up. This silver dollar was totally worth it!

Nangong Qing grinned. This silver dollar was extorted from his black-hearted wife. Now it comes in handy!

The fat monk helped them to arrange a place to stay in a small room not far from the fat monk's room. The fat monk looked rough, but he was very considerate. When he arrived, he gave Bai Lianyi a set of half-new clothes.

"I'm only taking care of you for the sake of the little girl! This little girl is so lovable at first sight... When Yuan Qing returns to secular life one day, I'll find a wife and have a little girl..."

These words made Nangong Qing and others burst out laughing. This fat monk did have an interesting soul, but I didn't know how such an interesting person could become a monk?

"Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask. Yuan Qing became a monk unwillingly anyway. Fortunately, he can drink and eat meat here... Bah, you're deliberately trying to trick me, aren't you? If you keep asking nonsense questions, I won't let you stay!"

Monk Yuanqing's expression changed and he said with a gloomy face.
