"Isn't that Lady Murong's carriage?"
On the street, because of the extravagance of the visitors, the pedestrians consciously opened up a path.
Shen Yueji looked at the graceful young woman sitting upright in the carriage. This time, she was not sitting in a horse carriage, but on a sedan chair carried by four people. Her white robes could not hide the paleness and haggardness of her face. Even her eyes were red and swollen.
There were thick traces of blood.
She looked even more dignified. She was only passing by a street in the capital but the atmosphere was so oppressive that no one dared to breathe.
"This Lady Murong is really something. She just lost her son but she can still swagger around here."
"She's dressed in plain white, without the silks and satins, where does she plan to go?"
"Where else could she go? It should be the nearby Bright Light Temple. "
At this moment, an old woman next to her opened her mouth to speak.
Hearing this, Shen Yueji looked at the old woman and asked in confusion, "Bright Light Temple?"
"Miss, are you a local from the capital? How come you don't even know about this? "
Perhaps it was because she wanted to avoid trouble, but the old woman could not control her own mouth. She moved closer to Shen Yueji's ear and whispered, "Ever since the late Empress passed away, this Murong Furen would run over to Bright Light Temple every once in a while. I heard from the servants in the Prime Minister's fu that Murong Furen was helping her daughter cross over. Ai. "
At this point, the old woman could not help but sigh, "The late Empress was really too pitiful. Tell me, they were both Lady Murong's children but why was the treatment so different? I heard that when the late Empress died, it was Lady Murong who urged the Emperor to kill her. Not to mention pleading for mercy, she did not even shed a tear. How can there be such a mother in this world? "
"Let's go."
"Miss, where are you going?"
"I'm following her." Shen Yueji replied calmly.
"Are you following Lady Murong to Bright Light Temple?" Shuang Xi asked.
"Yes."
...
Bright Light Temple was the only temple in the capital. Every day, many people came here to burn incense and pray for blessings. Shen Yueji followed behind Murong Yun's carriage and entered the temple's main entrance.
There were not many people who came to burn incense at Guangguang Temple today. The one who received them was a young monk. Under his guidance, Shen Yueji followed him to the front of a Buddha statue.
Stepping in, there were four soft sleepers in front of the Buddha statue. Different from other temples, the soft sleepers here were red. She saw Murong Yun, with the help of the nanny, slowly walked to the soft sleepers and knelt down.
After the little monk gave her three sticks of incense, he said 'Amitabha' and retreated.
Shen Yueji was not too far away from her. There were two soft cushions between them. She took the three sticks of incense from the little monk and nodded.
Murong Yun closed her eyes and murmured a few words. She slowly placed the incense and worshipped it devoutly.
Shen Yueji also learned from her. After inserting the incense, she suddenly turned her head and looked at Murong Yun's pale and plain face. She smiled and said, "Did the sun rise from the west today? It was not easy for BenGong to return to the mansion, but unexpectedly I met Lady Murong. "
Shen Yueji's words caused the woman, who was concentrating on her worship, to pause for a moment. She then turned her head to look at Shen Yueji, obviously recognizing her.
"So it's Imperial Consort Shen."
Her tone was indifferent. It could not be said to be respectful, but it could not be considered disrespectful either.
