The war god prince climbs the wall every night, and the princess is angry

The morning light is just beginning to brighten, and the sun slowly rises from the horizon, shedding its first rays of light through the thin clouds.

When Shen Qionghua arrived at Lin Wanru's courtyard, Lin was also there, and the two were chatting animatedly.

"Greetings to mother."

"Aunt is well."

After Shen Qionghua finished her greetings, she sat down next to Lin Wanru, her beautiful eyes looking between the two of them vaguely.

"What are mother and aunt talking about?"

Lin Wanru stroked Shen Qionghua's hair, eyes full of tenderness as she said, "Your aunt said the weather has become much cooler these days, and she invited me to go to the Fahua Temple outside the city to burn incense in three days."

"Fahua Temple?"

Lin smiled and said, "Sister Hua, you've only been in the capital for a short time, so you might not know that wishes made in the Fahua Temple are extremely effective, and there are also eminent monks enshrined there who can pray for the souls of the deceased."

Shen Qionghua's eyes flashed,

"Then does my mother plan to go with my aunt?"

"Of course." Lin Wanru said, "I haven't been out for a long time. I'd like to take this opportunity to ask a senior monk to pray for your father's soul."

"Hua Jie'er, do you want to go with me?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Lin immediately interrupted, "Sister, Hua Jie'er has to manage the Shen family's shop. She finally has some free time. Let her rest in the mansion for a while."

After listening to what Lin said, Lin Wanru felt that there was some truth in it.

After Lin's explanation, Lin Wanru knew that Baohua Temple was a long way away and one day might not be enough. She might have to stay in the meditation room in the temple for one night.

She looked at Shen Qionghua,

"What do you think?"

Shen Qionghua glanced at Lin, who was pretending to be calm, and a smile slowly appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"Mother, I won't go. I'll wait for you at Yunmengxuan."

When Lin heard this, her heart finally settled down.

Three days passed in a flash. On this day, Shen Qionghua sent Lin Wanru to the gate early. Lin and Zhou Lingyi had been waiting for a long time.

"Cousin Yi is also going to Baohua Temple?" Shen Qionghua asked in surprise.

"I'm not as busy as my cousin, and I'm quite free in this mansion. It's a good opportunity for me to go and burn incense."

Zhou Lingyi smiled, but excitement and malice were hidden deep in his eyes.

The three of them got on the carriages one after another. Lin Wanru rode alone in one, while Lin and Zhou Lingyi rode together in another.

A team slowly drove towards the city gate.

After watching them leave, Shen Qionghua put away the smile on her face, turned around and went back to Yunmengxuan.

The door was closed, Shaoyao and Gancao stood guard at the door, An Yi jumped down from the beam, clasped his hands together,

"Miss Shen."

Shen Qionghua glanced at it calmly and said, "Is everything ready?"

"Everything is ready!" An was shocked when he thought of what he had found out by following Nanny Kong. The wife of Marquis Yongning was probably finished.

Shen Qionghua nodded.

"Then let's proceed according to plan."

"Yes!"

"Remember not to hurt my mother. If she doesn't cooperate, you can knock her out."

"Yes!"

An Yi agreed and left through the window at lightning speed.

After he left, Shen Qionghua called Shaoyao in.

"What are your orders, Miss?"

"Go and have our men keep a close eye on Marquis Yongning's study in the front yard from now on. We don't need to get too close, but observe from a distance to make sure he doesn't leave."

"If you find that Marquis Yongning has left the study, report it immediately." Shen Qionghua instructed.

"Yes, miss, I'll go right away." Shaoyao turned and walked out.

Shen Qionghua sat on the armchair. She took out the copied Buddhist scriptures from the cabinet and held them tightly in her hands, with strong hatred filling her chest.

Doesn’t Lin love Marquis Yongning dearly?

Then she would let Marquis Yongning see her most filthy side.

……

Front yard study.

After lunch, Marquis Yongning sat at his desk, frowning as he looked at the names written on the rice paper in front of him.

Ever since Prince Rui was assigned to work in the Ministry of War by the Emperor some time ago, he has been praised by the Emperor repeatedly. Even the old-fashioned people in the Ministry of War are not shy about praising Prince Rui, completely suppressing the momentum of His Royal Highness Prince An.

Under this influence, the ministers who originally intended to defect to Prince An became wait-and-see again and were reluctant to make a decision. The emperor's attitude now tended to lean towards Prince Rui. If this continued, His Highness's situation would probably become difficult.

You have to think of a way.

Marquis Yongning stood up and paced back and forth in the room. After a while, he suddenly walked out of the study, and his confidants immediately followed him.

After passing through the gate and the winding corridor, a girl in a sky-blue dress and walking hurriedly suddenly appeared in front of Yongning Hou.

Looking at the face that was somewhat similar to his beloved, Marquis Yongning was in a trance for a moment.

"My Lord, how are you?" Shen Qionghua bowed to Marquis Yongning.

"No need to be so polite. Sister Hua, is there something urgent?" Marquis Yongning tried to look more amiable and asked calmly.

"To answer your question, my Lord, it is like this. My mother, my aunt, and my cousin Yi went to the Fahua Temple today to burn incense and pray for my father's soul. However, my mother left the Buddhist scriptures she copied for my father in the house."

"My mother copied these Buddhist scriptures over several nights and was planning to take them to the Fahua Temple to burn. Qionghua couldn't bear to see her hard work go to waste, so she was thinking of sending them to her."

"My aunt and the others have been gone for half a day. I don't know if I can catch up."

Shen Qionghua's face was full of anxiety, and her fair skin was stained with a few traces of red from running just now. Fine beads of sweat slid down her cheeks, making her look extremely embarrassed.

When Marquis Yongning heard Shen Qionghua's words, his heart tightened, and the scene of him guarding Yunmengxuan every night just to see her appeared in his mind.

He said calmly, "How about this, I happen to be free now, so please ride faster and I will help you deliver these things."

Shen Qionghua looked panicked when he heard this.

"Lord, send it over? Wouldn't that be too much trouble for you? Otherwise, why don't you find a guard to send Qionghua over?"

"No need." Marquis Yongning waved his hand calmly, "Madam and Yi'er have also gone to Fahua Temple. I was thinking of picking them up tomorrow, but I'm just going half a day early."

Shen Qionghua showed surprise on his face and bowed, saying, "In that case, thank you very much, Your Majesty." He handed the Buddhist scripture in his hand to Marquis Yongning.

Marquis Yongning accepted it and immediately turned and headed towards the stable.

After he left, Shen Qionghua stood up straight, and the anxiety and joy in her eyes faded away like the tide in an instant, replaced by mockery.

She knew that Marquis Yongning couldn't help it.

Since we last parted in the garden, A'niang has never left Yunmengxuan again.

This is a rare and legitimate reason, how could Marquis Yongning let it go?

Shen Qionghua returned to Yunmengxuan, changed into a low-key maid's outfit, lowered her head, avoided the crowd, came to a remote corner, pulled away the weeds, and crawled out.

She came to the agreed alley.

Because An Yi had to do what she asked him to do, she asked An Yi to deliver a message to King Rui three days ago.

Let King Rui lend her another secret guard today, and she will return it the next day, and let the secret guard wait for her here.

How could she miss such a big show in Fahua Temple? Naturally, she had to witness it with her own eyes to feel satisfied.

Besides, A Niang was still in Fahua Temple, and she had to see with her own eyes that A Niang was fine before she could truly feel at ease.

Although she hadn't ridden a horse for a long time and was a little unfamiliar with it, she was able to overcome it. The main reason she wanted a secret guard was because she was worried about the safety on the road.

She didn't want to miss the show and get herself involved.

Shen Qionghua waited in the alley for a cup of tea, but did not see a single person.

I couldn't help but feel anxious, secretly wondering if King Rui had forgotten.

Just as I was thinking this, the sound of horse hooves came from a distance.

Shen Qionghua looked up in surprise, and the next moment, the surprise turned into astonishment.

How could the person coming be King Rui?
