Chapter 1829: Lurking in Darkness

After getting up, he saw Ling Ruo's haggard face and asked with concern: "What's wrong with your mother? Are you still worried about your aunt?" Seeing Ling Ruo nodding, he said: "I heard that Huang Ama has asked Xu Guiren to go.

Hui'an Temple prays for my aunt, she should be fine soon."

Ling Ruo didn't say anything. After gesturing Hongli to sit down, he said: "Eniang has something to ask you to do." After Hongli nodded, he continued: "From now on, you will send someone to Hui'an Temple secretly.

Protect Xu Guiren."

"Protect Xu Guiren?" Hongli frowned and said, "Shu Erchen doesn't understand. Xu Guiren has her own bodyguards to protect her. Why should I send someone to protect her? And what danger will she face in Hui'an Temple?"

"Have you met Xu Guiren?" Ling Ruo's question made Hongli even more surprised. He thought for a while and nodded: "I have met her a few times from a distance. I remember that she looks a bit like... Hongshi's former side Fujin.

"

"Yes, the Suo Chuo Luo family of Jin Dynasty was killed by the empress. Now there is a Xu family like Suo Chuo Luo family. The empress is afraid that the second elder brother will not be able to control him and do something wrong. He has already done it once.

, it’s just that Mrs. Xu is lucky enough to save her life. Now that Mrs. Xu is outside the palace, with only a few imperial guards around her, the queen will definitely not miss this opportunity."

Hongli nodded solemnly, "I know it, and I will immediately arrange for someone to protect Xu Guiren after I return."

"You not only have to send someone to protect her, but if she is really attacked, you must tell the second elder brother about the matter." Ling Ruo's words made Hongli startled, and he said with an embarrassed face: "Let your son tell the second elder brother.

, is this appropriate? Even if Erchen's words are true, he may not believe it. And Erchen doesn't understand why he has to tell his second brother about this?" Hongli didn't know what he thought of, his expression changed and he said: "

Is it possible..."

Ling Ruo made a silent gesture and whispered: "Anyway, as long as you understand in your heart, Xu Guiren must not die, do you understand?"

Hongli bowed his head and said: "Yes, I will definitely protect Mr. Xu and not let anyone take advantage of him."

Seeing his agreement, Ling Ruo's expression softened and she turned to ask, "What's wrong with Mingyu? Is everything okay?"

"As far as E Niang is concerned, everything is fine with Mingyu. As for Xianyue, there is no movement at all. I can't guess what she is planning for the moment."

Ling Ruo frowned and said, "She must have noticed that someone was staring at her, so she didn't dare to act rashly. It's not in the way. As long as she continues to stare, sooner or later she will be caught by the fox's tail."

"I know." After talking to Ling Ruo for a while, Hongli left. However, he did not leave the palace immediately. Instead, he went to Xianfu Palace to visit Guarjia, and saw that Guarjia was haggard and weak.

Hongli was very sad because in his heart, Guarjia was like the second Niang.

Seeing Hongli's red eyes, Guarjia touched his shoulder and said, "I will be fine. Maybe when you come to see me next time, nothing will happen to you."

Hongli nodded and choked with sobs: "This is what my aunt said. Don't keep your word. Later I will have someone send some health-giving things to my aunt."

Guarjia could feel Hongli's concern for her and chuckled: "No need to bother, there is nothing in the palace."

Hongli said: "What is in the palace belongs to the palace, and what I give to you belongs to me. How can it be the same?"

Seeing that he insisted on doing this, Guarjia had no choice but to let him go. After talking for a while, Guarjia looked tired, and Hongli said: "After talking for so long, my aunt is also tired.

, take a good rest, I will come see you another day."

"Well." Guarjia was indeed a little tired. After watching Hongli leave, he closed his eyes. When Hongli stepped out of the palace door, he unexpectedly saw a small figure standing next to him.

Who is Hongzhan?

Hongli picked up Hongzhan and said, "What are you doing here?"

Hongzhan blinked his bright eyes and said, "I just finished writing, and I wanted to come and see my aunt, fourth brother, is my aunt feeling better?"

My aunt is a little tired and is taking a rest. Can you go see her later?" Although he knew that Hongzhan was born to the Liu family, Hongzhan was so smart and cute that Hongli couldn't feel disgusted.

Hongzhan nodded obediently and said: "Fourth brother, my aunt said that your handwriting is also very good, can you teach me?"

Hongli didn't notice Hongzhan's words just now, until he mentioned it again, he said in surprise: "Are you practicing calligraphy at such a young age?"

"Yes." Hongzhan nodded proudly, stretched out ten small fingers and said, "I can write more words than this now, but my aunt always says that I don't have the strength to write now, so she asked me to wait until I am five years old.

I'll write it when the time comes. But I promised my mother that I would practice calligraphy every day and not be lazy." After that, he pulled Hongli's clothes and said, "Fourth brother, can you teach me?"

"Okay." Hongli rubbed his head lovingly, corrected Hongzhan's writing style, wrote some relatively simple words, and asked him to practice with him before leaving.

As soon as he returned to Prince Bao's Mansion, he immediately followed Ling Ruo's words and sent his confidants to lurk in Hui'an Temple to protect the Xu family. Thinking about it afterwards, don't worry, after all, Yingge's secret guards are all highly skilled in martial arts, and only people like himself may not be able to do so.

After blocking it, after thinking about it, he ordered them to lead a group of archers to ambush outside.

After being extremely bright, the sky gradually dimmed, and the sun set in the west, creating a beautiful scene on the horizon, like the most gorgeous and precious silk and satin, making people want to take it for themselves.

Night fell in haze. On this day, Mrs. Xu knelt in front of the Buddha to pray for Guarjia. She did not get up until the oil lamp was held in the temple.

"My lord, please come to the side hall to have dinner. The poor nun has prepared dinner for your lord. However, there are only vegetarian dishes in the temple and there is no meaty food. Please forgive me." The speaker was the resident master of Hui'an Temple, who was over four years old.

Xun, Dharma name Jing'an.

Mrs. Xu clasped her hands together and returned the greeting: "Master, where are you? If you want to forgive me, I should be asking Master to forgive me for causing you trouble during this time."

"Your Majesty, you are here to pray for Concubine Jin on the orders of the Emperor. It is the honor of our temple. Why bother? Your Majesty, please!" At Jingchen's signal, Mrs. Xu came to the side hall to have a meal, and then

Take a shower and change clothes, then go to the Buddha to pray.

Everything looked the same as last night, and no one noticed that danger was approaching her...

Under the dark night, Mrs. Xu, Master Jing'an and others were kneeling in front of the Buddha when they suddenly heard a series of rapid knocks at the temple door.

Jing'an stopped what she was doing and said to the nanny beside her: "Yilin, go see who is knocking on the door outside."

"Yes, Abbot." Yilin agreed, came to the temple door and said, "Who is knocking on the door?"
