Murong Ke did not hide the fact that he came to the Huguo Temple to pray for blessings and perform religious rites. On the one hand, it was to let some people see that he valued Lei Bingfu. On the other hand, he also secretly let people spread the news that the King of Qin would come to the Huguo Temple together this time.
He wanted to know if the mastermind behind this also wanted to get rid of Mo Rongzhan.
The only thing he didn't expect was that Yao Yao would come with him. He had clearly hinted to Mo Rongzhan that it might be dangerous to come to Huguo Temple today.
"Why did you bring Yao Yao along?" Murong Ke frowned.
"She knows that she has to pray today." Mo Rongzhan said that he could not persuade her, but if it was a mortal, no one should be able to hurt her.
Murong Ke was obviously a little displeased. "You really don't need to worry."
Mo Rongzhan tilted his head and glanced at him. "Yaoyao is not as weak as you think."
With Yaoyao's current cultivation, even Murong Ke was no match for her. Even if she was restricted in the human world, it did not mean that she could not protect herself.
"What have you been through these past few years?" Murong Ke did not know what Mo Rongzhan meant by not being that weak, but when he thought of Ming Xi's rapid advancement in skills, he guessed that Yao Yao must have had the same experience.
Does that mean that even Yaoyao knows martial arts now?
Mo Rongzhan said calmly, "I've been through too much. I can't explain it in a few words."
"Take your time," Murong Ke said.
"I'll have time later." Mo Rongzhan looked back at Ye Zhen. He and Ye Zhen's disappearance out of thin air could not be hidden from Murong Ke, and when they came back, they appeared from the cave. It was impossible to find an excuse to cover it up.
Murong Ke took a deep look at Mo Rongzhan. Since Mo Rongzhan said so, he would definitely tell him.
Ye Zhen and Lei Bingfu walked behind and chatted. Only then did Ye Zhen know how Lei Bingfu and Ming Xi met before. Ye Zhen could not help but sigh that her two children and Lei Bingfu were predestined.
The dining hall in the back hall had already prepared the meal. After Mo Rongzhan and Murong Ke took their seats, Ye Rou pulled Lei Bingfu to sit down.
"What are you guys talking about?" Murong Ke couldn't help but ask Ye Zhen. He didn't expect her to talk so much to Lei Bingfu, as if she liked her very much.
"Ming Yu is under the care of Her Highness Hui Pin in the palace. We are talking about Ming Yu." Ye Zhen said with a smile.
Murong Ke said lightly, "It's her duty to take care of Ming Yu."
Although he said that, Lei Bingfu felt that it was not so refreshing when it came from Murong Ke's mouth. She just smiled quietly and dignified, not answering. Her expression looked like she was wearing a mask.
"The vegetarian dishes of Hu Guo Temple are very famous. Try them." Ye Zhen smiled at Lei Bingfu.
"I used to hear that the vegetarian dishes in Huguo Temple are very delicious." Lei Bingfu revealed a smile on her face, as if a crack had appeared on her mask. She no longer looked so fake.
That's right! The feeling she gave him was too fake! Murong Ke finally understood why he always disliked Lei Bingfu. It was because her expression was too fake, as if she was deliberately pretending to be dignified and obedient. In reality, he did not know what she was thinking.
Her expression towards Mingyu was not like this.
Ye Zhen pursed her lips and smiled, thinking that the interaction between Murong Ke and Lei Bingfu was very interesting.
After lunch, Murong Ke ordered to return to the palace. He and Mo Rongzhan sat in the front carriage. Between them was a chessboard, on which the black and white pieces were evenly matched.
"Yi wants to take back the Empress Dowager." Murong Ke gently put down a white piece. "What do you think?"
Mo Rongzhan casually put down the black piece. "Yi is a kind-hearted child. He can't bear to see the Empress Dowager suffer."
"You and I know what kind of person the Empress Dowager is. If she comes back, it may not be a good thing." Murong Ke said. He knew too well what kind of person the Empress Dowager was, so he did not agree to take her back to the capital.
"Let Yi go to the palace. If the Empress Dowager is really ill, there is no harm in letting her come back. At that time, let her live in Prince Yi's Mansion or Prince Qin's Mansion." Mo Rongzhan said lightly.
Murong Ke frowned and pondered for a moment before nodding in agreement. "Then let's do as you say."
Mo Rongzhan put down the chess piece at his fingertips. "It's a draw."
"You gave me a handicap of three pieces." Murong Ke looked up at him and was surprised to find that Mo Rongzhan's chess skills were much better.
"I didn't give you a handicap. I was distracted." Mo Rongzhan said in a low voice. Just now, he sensed that Ming Xi had sent him a message talisman. Just now, he was distracted and listened to Ming Xi's words. They hadn't reached the Wilderness yet, but they met an assassin on the road. That assassin was the same as the one who died yesterday.
It seemed that Blood Demon had not given up on killing Ming Yu.
"What did you think of?" Murong Ke asked.
Mo Rongzhan said lightly, "I'm worried about Ming Yu. Maybe we should go find them."
"I sent people to look for them, but they haven't been found yet." Murong Ke frowned and said, "Ming Xi is too cunning. I don't know who he is after."
"He is your son." Who else could he be after? "You should know your son well. Where will Ming Xi take Ming Yu?"
Mo Rongzhan said, "To the Wilderness to find Yan Xiaoliu. You don't have to think about finding him. They should be arriving soon."
"I shouldn't have let Yan Xiaoliu go to the Wilderness!" Murong Ke snorted coldly.
"Letting Ming Yu go out may be a kind of training." Mo Rongzhan said, "With Ming Xi there, don't worry too much."
Murong Ke frowned and said, "Don't forget, Ming Xi is the same age as Ming Yu. No matter how good his martial arts are, he is just a child."
Just then, there was a sudden shout from outside. "There's an assassin!"
An assassin broke into the Huguo Temple?
Murong Ke's face changed. He saw Mo Rongzhan's figure disappear from his position, so fast that he couldn't see it clearly.
Ye Zhen and Lei Bingfu walked in the garden. It was rare for them to have such a good conversation. What made Ye Zhen feel rare was that Lei Bingfu seemed to have a lot of life experience at such a young age. Every opinion coincided with her own.
If Murong Ke had her by his side in the future, he would not be lonely anymore.
She felt that Lei Bingfu was too suitable for Murong Ke.
This seemingly dignified and well-behaved Concubine Hui Pin was actually a very interesting and cunning girl.
"Be careful!" Lei Bingfu suddenly shouted and pulled Ye Zhen back a step.
Two monks emerged from the nearby flowers and stabbed at Ye Zhen with swords in their hands.
In fact, Ye Zhen had already noticed that there were people around her. She just wanted to know who they were. Were they fed blood worms like the assassins yesterday, or were they ordinary mortals?
If they were assassins fed blood worms, then she couldn't kill them here.
"Lei Huipin, you leave here first." Ye Zhen looked coldly at the monks who appeared around her and whispered to Lei Bingfu.
"No, I'll hold them off first. You go first." Lei Bingfu said.
The surrounding soldiers protected them in the middle, but the shadow guards who should have appeared did not appear. A few soldiers were not their opponents at all.
