Chapter 148 The poor little girl who was married off VS the inhumane prince 33
"Master, you are too polite. I came here today just to bask in the Buddha's light and watch the water and land ceremony. I am sorry for disturbing you. I hope you will forgive me."

Nangong Mo resumed his princely demeanor, solemn and dignified, with a majestic demeanor. Although he spoke modestly and his demeanor was gentle, he gave people a sense of distance for no reason.

"It is a blessing for Bi Temple that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can come to Bi Temple. How can we say that we are disturbing him?"

Master Huicong bowed slightly, turned to King Jin and said, "I was unable to attend the Crown Prince's wedding a few months ago. I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."

King Jin smiled faintly, "Master, you are a person from the secular world, so it is inconvenient for you to attend a worldly wedding. I understand this in my heart, so you don't have to feel bad."

His voice was clear and mellow, and compared to the prince, he seemed much more approachable. That random smile made people feel closer to him.

Master Huicong smiled and looked at Nangong Yan, "Your Highness, congratulations on your wedding.

Nangong Yan smiled faintly, his expression gentle, and was about to speak.

I saw Master Huicong staring at me with a frown on his face.

He frowned slightly, then quickly relaxed his brows, then asked with a faint smile, "Master, what's wrong? Is there something wrong with your words?"

Master Huicong was an accomplished monk, and seeing him staring at him like that made him feel uneasy.

"Prince Yan, it is not appropriate to talk here. Please follow me to the Dharma Hall."

Master Huicong said this and took Nangong Yan towards the direction of Bodhidharma Hall.

Watching Nangong Yan follow.

Both Prince Jin and Princess Jin couldn't help but show worry on their faces.

"Master Huicong just stared at Yan'er like that, but what's wrong with Yan'er?"

Princess Jin turned her head to look at Prince Jin beside her and said with a worried look.

King Jin looked at his beloved wife, frowned and shook his head, "I don't know either. I'll find out when I get back and ask Yan'er."

Seeing that she was still worried, he comforted her softly, "Rong'er, don't worry. Even if there is anything, Master Huicong will help resolve it."

Otherwise, he wouldn't have called Yan'er away alone. He could have just pretended not to know.

Princess Jin looked at Prince Jin and said nothing.

Nangong Mo looked at the direction where Master Huicong left, lost in thought. After a moment, he withdrew his gaze, greeted King Jin in a low voice, and returned to his residence.

Prince Jin and Princess Jin did not stand at the door either, but quickly turned around and went in.

Bodhidharma Hall is a quiet Zen room where Master Huicong usually meditates.

Nangong Yan sat upright on the futon, his expression was unusually serious. He was wearing a crescent-shaped white brocade robe. Even with his serious expression, he still looked gentle.

Master Huicong was sitting opposite him, with a pot of tea between them, and his expression was also serious.

"Master, do you have anything to say to Yan?"

Nangong Yan raised his eyes and looked at Master Huicong. The seriousness on his face disappeared, and instead became gentle, and he spoke in a calm voice.

He picked up the teapot in front of him, poured a cup of tea for the other person, and then gently pushed it over.

Huicong glanced at the tea that was pushed in front of him, but did not drink it. He just stared at Nangong Yan and said seriously: "I saw your face and found that you seemed to have a bloody disaster recently, but it is not serious and your life is not in danger."

"However, this will trigger a series of chain reactions, leading to huge changes in the entire Prince Jin's Mansion. You need to be careful."

Nangong Yan's face changed slightly, and he stared at him closely, "Master, do you know who attacked me? And why?"

It will cause a huge change in the entire Prince Jin's Mansion, and I'm afraid it will involve the palace, but I don't know what it is.

Master Huicong was silent for a few seconds, his face seemed to be hesitant. After a moment, he said, "I can only tell you that the man came from the palace, and it also involves some things. For the rest, please forgive me for not being able to say more."

“In the palace?” Nangong Yan frowned.

Although he was born in the palace, he had no conflict of interest with the palace. Who would attack him for no reason? It would also affect the entire palace.

Suddenly, Nangong Mo's face flashed through his mind.

Thinking of the conversation between the two not long ago, and that person's covetousness for Yao'er.
He pursed his thin lips into a line, and his fingertips suddenly clenched together, leaving their knuckles slightly white.

"Master, is that person from the East Palace?"

Nangong Yan stared at Master Huicong closely and asked seriously.

The East Palace is also within the scope of the Imperial Palace.

Could it be that Nangong Mo would attack him and the entire Prince Jin's Mansion in order to get Yao'er?
Master Huicong was stunned for a moment. He only said that it came from the palace. Why did Prince Yan think of going to the Eastern Palace?

"I am referring to the harem. You need to think about the rest yourself, my Lord."

He took a sip of tea, lowered his eyes, and said no more.

Nangong Yan frowned, his face thoughtful, his fingertips tightly clenched,
The harem refers to the emperor's concubines.

Why would the concubines harm him for no reason? He was not a prince, nor did he have a chance to be crowned emperor, and there was no conflict of interest, so why would they attack him for no reason?
Could it be that because the emperor uncle treated her too well, the concubine became jealous and couldn't help but attack her?
But if this is the case, how could it affect the entire palace? Or would it be a huge change?
He raised his eyes to look at Master Huicong, and seeing that Master Huicong looked like he didn't want to say more, he didn't ask any more questions.

Instead, he stood up and bowed respectfully, "Thank you for your advice, Master. I am very grateful."

Master Huicong opened his eyes, looked at him and smiled faintly.

Thinking of something, he reminded again: "Prince Yan, please forgive me for being so nosy. If you want a happy and fulfilling life, please treat the Crown Princess well and maintain your marriage. Otherwise, you will be lonely and regretful for the rest of your life."

Nangong Yan was slightly startled, then smiled, "Yan will treat the Crown Prince's Consort well, thank you Master."

The expression is humble and polite.

At night, the bells of Wan'an Temple rang.

Yu Yao woke up and opened her eyes. It was already dark. She straightened her collar and got out of bed.

She walked to the table and poured herself a glass of water. After a few sips, she quenched her thirst. She walked to the window, opened the curtains, and saw a ray of soft moonlight shining in from the window, and the sky outside was full of stars.

Siqin pushed the door open and saw that her master had woken up, so she smiled and said, "Master, it's cold at night, you will catch a cold. Let me help you put on your clothes."

Yu Yao turned around and looked at Si Qin who came in, with a slight smile on her lips, "Okay!"

Just let the other party serve you.

Siqin gently put the robe on her, glanced at her master, and said hesitantly, "Master, the prince went to the Dharma Hall with Master Huicong today, and he came back not long after."

Yu Yao hummed, not taking it to heart, and did not ask Nangong Yan why he went to Damo Hall.

Siqin looked at her master helplessly. Why did she feel that her master didn't care about the Young Master at all? It seemed that her master was very concerned about the Young Master.

Siqin didn't know that Yu Yao had let it go. She thought that since she was already pregnant, her first mission would be accomplished after giving birth to the child, so it didn't matter whether she conquered Nangong Yan or not.

Anyway, she didn't plan to spend the rest of her life in this world.

Of course, it doesn’t mean you should leave immediately after giving birth to a child. You have to raise the child no matter what. It would be so pitiful for a child to be without a mother.

Seeing that her master didn't ask, Siqin spoke up, "After the prince came back, he looked like he was worried, and he refused to say anything even when the princess asked."

Yu Yao was slightly startled and looked at Si Qin, "Do you know what it is about?"

Siqin shook her head, "I don't know. It was not long after the master went to bed that Master Huicong came over and said a few words. He kept staring at the young master, and then asked the young master to go with him to the Dharma Hall."

"I see."

She didn't ask any further, thinking that Master Huicong had said something to Nangong Yan.
