So she could only agree. Even if she accepted this responsibility, she would face the artillery attacks of the harem from now on. She would need to be more careful. Even Xia Jie might misunderstand her and annoy her at any time. She had no choice. Now she first
What she has to do is to return to the palace in a beautiful way and get rid of her reputation as a troublemaker! Things have to be prioritized! This time, she was plotted by Xia Yunshen, so she had no choice but to admit it!
But Yifang has one final question that needs to be answered.
She raised her eyes, looked at Xia Yunshen, and said firmly in a very light tone: "Why me."
Xia Yun paused for a moment, his eyes lingering on Yifang Qingcheng's beautiful face, mixed with a bit of lingering and confusion. After a long time, he turned around and said slowly: "Because you are the only woman in the palace whose hands have never seen blood.
."
————————————————————————
"Mother, everything is settled."
In the huge Mahavira Hall, Yifang was the only one kneeling on the carpet. She had never believed in Buddhism, but at this moment, she still knelt on the ground with her hands clasped and prayed sincerely. She was not begging the Buddha to allow her to be invincible in the harem, nor was she.
Pray for retribution for those who have harmed her.
She doesn’t believe in heaven or gods. She believes in herself. Every path she takes is made by herself. In this world, the only thing people can rely on is themselves. If only the gods and Buddhas in the sky can punish evil and promote good
, she would not have reached the point where she is today.
The only thing she wants at this moment is good hope and peace of mind.
The last words Xia Yunshen said to her before leaving that day hit her heart. Xia Yunshen saw the last principle she maintained after struggling hard in the palace, not to take human life!
Perhaps, this principle, this bottom line, is not only seen by Xia Yunshen, but also by everyone. Or, the hesitation in Xia Jie's eyes sometimes when he looks at her, and why he is unwilling to tell her some things, is also because of her
This bottom line.
In fact, she is really a useless person. She is not merciful, but she is stubborn and ridiculous in guarding the word "human life". She knows that it is ridiculous to do so, but she cannot break through this barrier. Maybe, somewhere in her heart
, she is always deceiving herself and others, killing someone with a borrowed knife, it is not a murder, I am not Boren, but Boren died because of me, it is not a murder either, those people were killed by others, so she is still a clean person.
Yifang smiled indifferently, raised his head slightly, and looked at the Buddha who was sitting upright above him. He had kind eyebrows and kind eyes. He looked down at his whole life. Unfortunately, not all things are equal. Xia Jie, the lord of the world, cannot achieve such justice. He is compassionate.
Buddha could not do the same.
But Yifang still knelt down. She turned a blind eye to Cui'er who looked anxious beside her. She knelt on the ground, kowtowed and prayed for her future.
"Buddha, the believer Dou Yifang returns to the palace today. I don't ask God to protect me in the court, or immortals to help me realize my wish. I only hope that God has eyes and allows the believer to be less bloody and more peaceful.
."
Qingmiao's words drifted into the silent corner along with the incense in the room. When Yi Fang raised her head again, her eyes were already full of light. With the help of Cui'er, she stood up. She was dressed in luxurious palace clothes. At this moment, she was already hidden in the sky.
Concubine Yi in Yi Palace is no longer a little girl who humblely prays before the Buddha.
"Your Majesty, it's almost time, we have to leave as soon as possible, but the Crown Princess..."
Hearing Cui Er's gorgeousness, he was a little hesitant, and Yi Fang smiled lightly, "The Crown Princess is feeling unhappy again?"
"Replying to your Majesty, the Crown Princess said that she had fetal contractions while walking in the garden yesterday, so she was unwilling to leave at this time and asked her to return to the palace first."
After Xia Yunshen entrusted Hua Yunqing to Yifang, he did not hesitate for a moment and headed directly to the northwest from Yunshan Temple. Although Xia Yunshen had mentioned to Hua Yunqing earlier that the arrangements made were for the safety of her and her children.
It is impossible to change Hehua Yunqing's character. She has a lingering dislike for Yifang. She has never had a good look at Yifang. Ever since she lived in Yunshan Temple, she either disliked light meals or had to move her fetus every three days.
Sometimes in the middle of the night, sometimes in the early morning, often when Yi Fang just lay down, she would suddenly get into trouble again. She would send someone to call Yi Fang, and when they met, there would be nothing but sarcasm in her words.
He took great care of her, but he had ulterior motives.
But nothing she did caused Yi Fang to become furious. Yi Fang still followed her temper and even decoctioned medicine for her himself. However, this decoction had to go through Hua Yunqing's wet nurse.
Grandma will do it after she tests the medicine and monitors it personally.
Yifang tolerates all rudeness and provocations from Hua Yunqing, and will keep her promise and try her best to protect the innocent child. However, she will never let herself fall into a possible crisis. Protecting herself is her first priority.
.
Cui'er saw Yifang's calm expression and then looked around at no one before whispering: "Your Majesty, the Crown Princess has gone too far. Do you want me to be a slave..."
Before Cui Er finished speaking, she stopped in Yi Fang's ears, causing her color to change suddenly. She turned her beautiful eyes, and there was already hidden anger waiting to burst out!
"I thought you were calm enough to take on big responsibilities, but I didn't expect you to be so impetuous!"
Yifang's rebuke was merciless. Her cold eyes were locked on Cui'er, which made Cui'er feel cold. She knelt on the ground and said, "I forgive you, I know I was wrong."
Yifang looked at Cui'er's trembling body and sighed quietly in his heart. Sure enough, feelings are the most powerful tool to influence reason!
Tweety used to be a cautious person, able to judge the situation calmly and know what she should do for the best. But that was because Tweety only regarded her as a master who needed to be feared in her heart. But now, Tweety is
He was sincerely loyal to her, so he started to disregard that layer of caution and said these words that might make her lose her name.
"Get up."
Cui'er stood up, not daring to say any more words, and supported Yifang and slowly walked out.
In Yunshan Temple, because of the imperial edict, it was necessary to welcome Concubine Yi, who had been praying for blessings in Yunshan Temple for several months, back to the palace. Therefore, the whole temple was full of fighting. Five steps away, there was a palace guard who was waiting for her.
Yifang walked on the road, turned sideways, and looked at Cui'er's brows, still hiding a bit of confusion, and said lightly: "I know that you have been in the palace for many years, so naturally there are ways to make pregnant people suffer some pain without causing any pain.
Abortion, but you have to remember that anything you do may leave traces. If someone accidentally catches the problem, we will lose more than we gain. Yunshan Temple, after all, I am the only concubine in the harem now, and the safety of the Crown Princess is all at risk.
, in the eyes and mouths of others, I am the one shouldering the responsibility."
Third update, next chapter, Yi Fang returns to the palace, haha, sweat, keep going.
