The Queen Mother looked at the confusion in Chen Xi's eyes, then turned to look at Feng Qingyang.
Under the sun, the man's jade face was cold and stern, his eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and the dark light dancing in his deep eyes was unpredictable.
Compared to Chen Xi's doubts, he seemed to know something.
The Empress Dowager sighed softly, shook her head and said: "The Ai family is far away in Cixi Palace. How can we know what happened that night? However, Xi'er, you disappeared that night! Many speculations are not good for you. In your case,
Before Father returns in triumph, you all must be mentally prepared."
"So, what you are saying is that the people in the Zunli Division really suffered a disaster that night?" Chen Xi's face turned pale.
The Empress Dowager said: "Not only was the Zunli Division razed to the ground, but even the people nearby... Xi'er, the catastrophe back then was a nightmare in the hearts of the people of Kyoto! The emperor ordered that everyone not be allowed to discuss this matter, and you are not allowed to be mentioned.
, in fact, there is a selfish intention to protect you! But...
He will eventually have to give an explanation to those innocent people!"
So, it was only a matter of time before she was interrogated?
Chen Xi frowned, thinking that she must understand the truth of the matter before Emperor Ling Xiao comes back.
And the only people who knew about this matter were the servant named Asan just now... By the way! Feng Mulian was also there!
She must talk to Feng Mulian!
The cold palm was suddenly wrapped by a warm hand.
Chen Xi raised his head and met Shang Feng Qingyang's indifferent and distant eyes.
He said: "Don't worry, let me handle this matter!"
"But, I am the party involved..."
"Don't forget! So does I!"
Feng Qingyang nodded, his eyes seemed to be filled with the warmth of spring, shining into her heart, so warm!
It’s great to have him here!
…
In the test hall, Huajiazi squatted on the roof of the temple with infinite sadness.
He held his chin with one hand and stared blankly at the broken earth on the temple.
"Master, the fairy's statue has never been sculpted. What should I do?"
A child stood beside him, his brows furrowed and equally sad.
Huajiazi was puzzled, and everything he said seemed feeble: "It's been five years. I, Old Man Hua, have been trying to shape this idol for five years without success. If it is spread out, people will laugh to death?"
"Master, it's a small thing to laugh to death, but it's a big deal if you can't complete it! Next month is the temple's opening day once every ten years! The statues of Shangxuan God and Flower Fairy have always been symbols of the temple, but now one of them is missing.
This...how are you going to explain it to everyone?"
"Explain?"
Huajiazi raised his head bitterly and looked at the child's face wrinkled like a bitter melon. He was so sad that he wanted to hit the wall: "Explain... how to explain..."
Wow, this is really a frustrating problem.
Under the temple, a family of three walked from a distance.
Little Qiansi jumped up and down, curiously picking up everything he saw and playing with it.
Suddenly he saw two bleak back figures under the statues at the top of the temple. The little guy's eyes lit up: "Mom, someone is playing with mud on the roof! Xiaoqian is going too!"
As he spoke, he kicked off his two calves, and his little body flew up to the roof happily like a wild horse.
"Hey! Xiaoqian..."
Chen Xi reached out to hold him, but was stopped by Feng Qingyang.
She looked at Feng Qingyang in confusion, but saw a different kind of smile in his eyes.
