Wenren Si broke the body-fixing charm, and the first thing he did was reach out to grab Chu Jingyue.

Chu Jingyue reacted extremely quickly, dodging and slapping another charm on him.

Wenren Si could still speak this time, and he almost gnashed out the three words from between his teeth, as if he wanted to eat someone.

Chu Jingyue’s expression remained unchanged, and she only slowly went to close the window, as the remaining twilight of the evening was not suitable for him to replenish his yang energy.

“Please keep in mind, Your Highness, that we have only reached a temporary transaction, don’t cross the line.”

She walked out of the bedroom calmly, and the maids at the door watched their noses and minds, not daring to say anything more.

Wenren Si’s face was livid. Who was crossing the line again and again?

Remembering every time she pressed his heart, Wenren Si’s anger rose, and she would accuse him first.

Chu Jingyue came to the courtyard and saw Yue Jin who had been brought, and handed him a package of things.

“Princess, you don’t actually have to go to the temple.” Pei Feng wanted to tell her implicitly that the old grand consort was not doing it for her own good, but just wanted to give her a hard time.

Chu Jingyue said indifferently, “It doesn’t matter.”

Maybe her life treasure was hidden in the temple, and she had no reason not to go.

Chu Jingyue and the old grand consort went to the temple overnight, but what she didn’t expect was that Wenren Si broke the body-fixing charm before they were about to leave, and packed his things to go with them.

“Oh, Your Highness is not going to the military camp?”

Wenren Si’s face was cold, and he was still suppressing his anger, “The military camp in the suburbs of Beijing is not far from the temple.”

Chu Jingyue twitched the corner of her mouth, let him do it, anyway, he couldn’t do anything to her.

With Wenren Si following, she could be more confident in exploring the temple.

Wenren Si’s eyes never left Chu Jingyue along the way, even when getting off the carriage and walking up the stairs, he still looked at her.

He was angry in his heart, but the Liu family mother and daughter were not aware of it.

“I didn’t expect that in just a few days, Your Highness would be so attentive to Chu Jingyue, even personally following her to the temple. In the past, Your Highness didn’t believe in these things.” Madam Liu regarded Chu Jingyue as a thorn in her side, staring at her without blinking.

Liu Siyu clenched her handkerchief and said unwillingly, “If the mother was willing to let me return to the Prince’s mansion when Your Highness was dying, what would be her business?”

Madam Liu’s expression was embarrassed. At the beginning, she felt that Wenren Si was hopeless, so she might as well curry favor with the old grand consort, and if the family property was divided in the future, she could get some benefits.

Who would have thought that the person who was said to be dead could actually come back to life?

“Yu’er, you must hold on to the old grand consort’s favor. With her help, you will definitely have no problem getting a concubine position.” Madam Liu whispered.

Liu Siyu lowered her eyes and hid the unwillingness in her eyes. Everyone said that she was very suitable to be Wenren Si’s concubine, but why couldn’t she be the princess?

“It’s not easy for our mother and daughter to survive, you must seize the opportunity, your mother has had enough of living under someone else’s roof.” Madam Liu sighed, placing her hopes on her daughter.

Liu Siyu raised her head and hooked her gentle and peaceful smile, and quickly chased after her, lifting her skirt.

“Is grandmother tired? Let Siyu help you.” Liu Siyu sensibly went to help people, and showed Wenren Si a just right smile.

But Wenren Si didn’t pay attention, he was still using his eyes to torture Chu Jingyue, which made Liu Siyu feel a little lonely in her eyes.

“Welcome all benefactors, the meditation room has been prepared, please move over.”

Chu Jingyue carried her luggage but did not follow to the meditation room, but walked into the temple where the Buddha statues were enshrined.

The Buddha statues were golden and magnificent.

But she saw a trace of weirdness, the Buddha statues enshrined here were not the real Buddha.

“I heard that the Princess is a Taoist, are you also interested in Buddha statues?” The abbot walked over with Buddhist beads in his hand.

Chu Jingyue retracted her gaze, “The abbot misunderstood, I just like gold.”

Her words made the abbot laugh, and Chu Jingyue took the opportunity to leave the Buddha hall and went to the meditation room.

As soon as she left, the abbot’s amiable and smiling face suddenly changed, where was there any compassion?

“What Taoist master? In my opinion, he is just a Jianghu swindler, flirting with the Prince of Qi and very lustful, and staring at the golden Buddha statue with greed, not to be feared.”

The little monk sitting next to him leaned over and said, “But she knows the Thirteen Ghost Needles.”

“The Thirteen Ghost Needles are just in legends, she says it is? Maybe it’s just bluffing.” The abbot said contemptuously and greedily, “But she looks extremely outstanding, and she really has some of the charm of a goddess in a painting.”

“Go, find a way to bring her down tonight, if she can become a Buddha girl, she will definitely sell for a high price.”

The little monk was flustered and reminded, “But she is the Princess of Qi, who would dare to buy her even if she becomes a Buddha girl?”

“What about the Princess of Qi? Who would dare to let the people who bought the Buddha girl publicize and see people? Anyway, they are hidden for their own appreciation and play.”

The abbot urged the little monk to quickly pass the message, he stood under the huge and majestic golden Buddha statue, his eyes full of greed.

Chu Jingyue was taken to a remote meditation room that was not close to other female relatives, and there was also vegetarian food delivered to the door.

“Why did they let you live here?” Wenren Si originally wanted to ask her, but he could detect whether the incense was different when he entered the hall.

He didn’t expect that he would find Chu Jingyue from the corner meditation room after he turned east and west.

Chu Jingyue didn’t answer him, but said, “The Buddha statues here are not normal, they look like evil Buddhas.”

“Didn’t so many Buddha worshipers notice it?” Wenren Si felt that it was unlikely, it was too absurd.

Chu Jingyue sneered, “You go and ask those Buddha worshipers, whether they worship faith or their unbearable past? Most of them just want to seek peace of mind, who cares what is enshrined above?”

Wenren Si looked at her slightly unexpectedly, always feeling that she was a little too transparent.

“Be vigilant about the food here, don’t eat, don’t smell, and don’t shake it around.” Chu Jingyue’s tone was calm, without any extra emotions.

Wenren Si glanced at the vegetarian food on her table, and it was really untouched.

“I’ll leave two guards for you.” Wenren Si pursed his lips, since it was a transaction relationship, it was right for him to guarantee her safety.

Chu Jingyue turned around and looked at him seriously, “No, instead of leaving guards for me, it’s better for you——”

As soon as her finger touched Wenren Si’s heart, the other party’s face darkened, “Don’t even think about it, this is a temple after all.”

Wenren Si turned and left in a hurry, but unfortunately the night was drunk and the candlelight was dim, and no one saw his blushing face.

Chu Jingyue sighed longingly at his back, he was really stingy, he was unwilling to give a little spiritual power, it was better to add trouble to her in the Prince’s mansion.

“Miss, according to your request, I inquired in the mountains, and I heard that there are demons and ghosts in the nearby mountains, who specialize in eating women and children, so more people come to the mountains to ask Buddha for peace.”

Yue Jin was so tired that he was sweating profusely, and he was panting when he spoke.

This scene happened to be seen by Liu Siyu, who came over to try to get some information, and she quickly covered her mouth and hid in the dark to watch quietly.

“Demons and ghosts in the mountains? Heh, you have worked hard these two days, so stay in the mountains, and you prepare some things…”

Chu Jingyue beckoned and asked him to lean over.

Liu Siyu saw this scene in the distance, and her face was full of unstoppable smiles.

Let’s see how you can sit firmly in the position of princess!
