From the moment she stepped out of the woodshed, the Empress had already sent people to set up the scene. As long as she did not agree to the Empress's request, the trace of her "absconding" would be discovered.
"I can agree to your request, but you must give Yinghua back to me!"
The Empress turned her head. In the darkness, her phoenix eyes quietly flowed with cold mockery.
"I can give him back to you, but — after you finish it. Don't try to play tricks. Even if His Majesty has been dissatisfied with me, I'm still the Empress of Dajin! "
At that moment, the undisguised hatred in the Empress's eyes made Lin Mengya feel a little frightened.
She was sure that it was definitely not because her camp was hostile to the Empress's camp.
However, the Empress did not give her a chance to ask. He turned around and left the pitch-black meditation room.
"Why on earth does the Empress hate and want to kill me so much?"
Lin Mengya did not know, but a bigger problem entangled her heart in an instant.
The Empress's means were really superb. She knew that Yinghua meant something to both her and Long Tianhao, so she made such a vicious plan.
However, whether it was the military power or Long Tianhao, she could not give them up.
The Empress was a patient person. She was afraid that it would be difficult for her to escape.
Lin Mengya shook her head and sighed slightly.
She really did not know when she had done evil in this life. How could she be so scheming in this life?
"Let's go. Send me back to the woodshed."
After adjusting her expression, Lin Mengya walked out of the monk's room.
There were all the Empress's people here, so even if she wanted to escape, it would be difficult.
It was better to wait and see. After all, now she was a commander without an army.
After going around in circles, she returned to the woodshed.
It was not a bad thing for Lin Mengya to understand the Empress's purpose.
She had long known that whether it was the Empress or Long Tianhao, the military power in her father's hands exuded a temptation comparable to poppy.
The reason why she was married to Long Tianhao and poisoned to death in the sedan was that she was forced to choose a side for her father.
To be honest, sometimes she really wanted her father to resign and take her brother away from this troublesome place.
But now the situation was special. If his father could not control the military power, Long Tianhao might not be able to win the support of so many people. Even her father might not be able to protect the Lin family.
The benevolence of the ruler was like flowing water. Without military power, no matter how loyal the Lin family was, what could they do?
Hugging her knees, Lin Mengya sat in the woodshed in a daze, feeling very upset.
Thud, thud!
As dawn approached, Lin Mengya, who was not sleepy at all, suddenly heard a light knock on the door.
His first thought was that it was someone from the Empress' side. However, the other party did not say anything. Instead, he slipped her a sugar cake wrapped in oiled paper through the gap of the door.
Lin Mengya was puzzled. But suddenly, an extremely kind voice came from outside.
"Child, don't be afraid. Take it and eat it while it's hot. "
Although the voice sounded a little old, it involuntarily reminded Lin Mengya of her aunt who was responsible for taking care of them in the orphanage.
Her aunt was the same. She took care of every orphan with love. She made them work hard to grow up in love.
Unconsciously, Lin Mengya's eyes turned red. She took the sugar cake with both hands, put it in her mouth, and took a big bite.
It was sweet and soft in her mouth, and it was also warm.
The coldness of the night seemed to be a lot warmer with this sugar cake.
Lin Mengya raised her head and looked outside through the gap of the door.
She only saw an old monk with a kind face standing not far away, looking at her with a smile.
The man was only wearing a coarse monk robe. Although it was not gorgeous, it was neat and clean.
His eyes were full of wisdom. Just one look at him would make people feel respect.
At this moment, he saw Lin Mengya looking at him. The old monk put his palms together and bowed.
"Hello, donor. Sorry to disturb you. Amitabha, you are chosen by Buddha and are destined to have a great opportunity. I am powerless. I just want to make a good karma. "
The old monk chanted the name of Buddha, but he was not as deliberate as others.
Lin Mengya hurriedly bowed back. This person was a real Buddhist disciple. It was said that one's appearance was born from one's heart. Compared with Yunshen last night, this master was like a Bodhisattva, making people feel warm.
"Master, thank you for the sugar cake. But this is not a good place for chatting. If there is a chance, I will definitely invite you to my house to talk about Buddhist scriptures. "
In fact, Lin Mengya did not have a good impression of Buddhism.
This came from modern times. The commercial propaganda of Buddhism had contaminated this self-cultivation religion with the stench of money.
However, seeing the master today made Lin Mengya understand why Buddhism had been passed down for thousands of years.
If she did not really concentrate on cultivation and save the world, she would not feel so peaceful at the sight of this old monk.
This was a kind of temperament that emanated from the heart. It made people have a kind of calmness and calmness as if they were making trouble.
Such a person must be a Buddhist master. Lin Mengya naturally respected him very much.
"Hahaha, my Dharma name is Wuchen. You can just call me Monk Wuchen. What master? I am far from being called. Actually, this poor monk is here to ask for an item from you. "
Lin Mengya was stunned for a moment. It was only the first time she met this Master Wuchen. Why did she owe him something?
When Dustless saw her expression, he smiled and explained, "Don't worry.
"Actually, many years ago, this poor monk begged a young benefactor to pass this to you. It seems that that person kept his promise and figured out the cause and effect. That was why this item was in the hands of Benefactor. Congratulations. Congratulations. "
Lin Mengya realized that what Wuchen was talking about was the bead that Brother Tian Ning gave her.
She quickly put down the sugar cake, carefully wiped her hands, took out the bead from her waist, and offered it with both hands.
"I wonder if you are talking about this thing. I didn't expect that this thing was given to Brother Tian Ning by you. Thank you for saving my life. I will never forget it. "
Seeing that Lin Mengya was so straightforward, Wuchen couldn't help but show a touch of appreciation in his eyes.
Very good, reasonable and not greedy for external things. He was indeed a person with a Buddhist heart. He reached out his hand and carefully took the white bead back.
But there was a touch of reluctance and sadness in his eyes. But soon, those mundane thoughts in the world gradually faded in his eyes.
Wuchen put his palms together and bowed to the west. Then he returned the bead to Lin Mengya.
"No, master, I can't take it. This is your thing. It should be returned to its owner. "
It was not that Lin Mengya didn't see the emotions in Master Wuchen's eyes, so she couldn't take it anymore.
However, Dustless merely smiled. In his eyes, there were already no more worries.
"Just take it, benefactor. To tell you the truth, this is the relic of my master, Master Yunfang. In fact, I am just a passer. The one who really wants to give it to you is actually my master, Master Yunfang. "
Relic?
Lin Mengya was very surprised. She took the bead from Master Wuchen with both hands.
She had only heard of it before. It was said that it was the crystallization of merit and virtue left by a real eminent monk after he passed away.
Originally, the relic was a treasure to be worshiped in the Buddhist pagoda. Why did this Master Yunfang give it to her?
"Benefactor, you don't have to be confused. My master, Master Yunfang, has already seen great wisdom. Since he made such an arrangement, he must have his reasons. Actually, I came here this time just to pay my respects. There is one more thing I hope you can promise me. "
Lin Mengya carefully put away the relic. He had given her such a good fortune. Naturally, she would promise him anything.
"Master, please go ahead. Don't stand on ceremony."
Wu Chen suddenly let out a sigh. His face was filled with guilt.
"To tell you the truth, in fact, my master, Master Yunfang, and Master Yunshen used to be fellow apprentices. It was only because Uncle-Master Yunshen's evil thoughts entered his body that he made such a huge mistake. And the Buddhist incense he used was the source of all evil. I want to ask you to help my martial uncle get out of the sea of suffering. "
"Martial uncle? Yunshen? "
Lin Mengya widened her eyes and looked at Master Wuchen in front of her.
Putting aside the fact that Monk Yunshen's methods were cruel and hair-raising.
However, no matter how she looked at him, he looked like a young man in his thirties at most. How could —
"Alas, it's a long story. I'm ashamed. Martial uncle fell into the devil's way, so he became like this. Benefactor, you will know the details later. He could also be considered a part of the benefactor's mortal fate, rising and falling with fate. Don't worry. My master's relic is the treasure to restrain Martial Uncle Yunshen's evil method. Under the Buddha's light, evildoers have nowhere to hide. It's getting late. I won't bother you anymore. "
Wuchen bowed deeply and was about to leave.
But Lin Mengya suddenly called out to him.
"Master, I'll try my best to do what you said. But I also have a request. I hope you can try your best to do it for me. If you can't, I'll be very grateful. "
Wuchen also felt that he had to show something since he had asked Lin Mengya for a favor. Immediately, he stopped and listened attentively.
"What happened here is all because of the power struggle. I'm in it and can't get out of it. Master, please have mercy on me and save the innocent child. It would be good if you can enlighten him. If you can't, please use your means to keep him away from these conspiracies. "
