Grand Princess Yi De gently closed her eyes, and her two hands gripped the incense, respectfully bowing to Buddha, "Even if there is only a sliver of hope, I am still willing to wholeheartedly believe in Buddha, even if ... Even if I can't get the child back, I want her to be somewhere out of my sight,
"Safe and smooth, safe and sound ..."
At this moment, she was no longer the Grand Princess, she was just a mother who had lost her child for many years and was unable to find any news of her ...
King Yue went forward to help insert the incense into the incense burner in front of him before accompanying the Grand Princess in reciting a prayer.
"Aunt, it's getting late. Let's go back."
Grand Princess Yi De opened her eyes, and lightly breathed in a breath of air. After bowing once more to Buddha, she stood up and said, "Many thanks, Grand Master Yuan Guang. Every year, you have to wait here."
Ever since her daughter had been lost, she had come to Baohua Temple every year to make a wish, and the abbot, Guang Guang, also waited here every year. Other than the two of them, the rest had never changed.
The Great Master of Far Light smiled and did not speak, only slightly bowing. From the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of the Buddhist scriptures on the incense table. One of the scrolls was slightly opened, revealing a delicate hairpin. She was able to tell at a glance that this was the work of a woman.
On the other hand, it had a unique edge to it that made it especially refreshing.
The Grand Princess Yi De said softly, "These Buddhist scriptures?"
Yue Yang picked up a scroll and placed it in front of the Grand Princess, a soft look in his eyes, "It was written by Miss Mu for her grandfather's blessings." Grand Princess Yi De took a look at it, then looked at the tall buddhist scriptures on the table, with a smile on his face: "Filial piety is rare, I think the words written on this buddhist scripture are exceptionally likable, give this scroll to me, Jun Yu, tomorrow you have to find a suitable time to tell Mu Yunyao.
"
"Yes."
After exiting the Blessing Palace, Grand Princess Yi De turned her head to look at Wang Yue."Jun Yue, you're not young anymore. There should be someone by your side to take care of you."
"Aunt, I'm not in a hurry."
"Previously, when you said that you were not in a hurry, I actually felt that it was believable. But now, you aren't in a rush either?" As Grand Princess Yi De spoke, her eyes rested on the buddhist scripture in Wang Yue's hands, "That Mu Yunyao is actually quite an astute child. She doesn't look too bad, but her background is rather low ..."
Yue Yang's body stiffened, and his expression became even more gentle: "I ... "He doesn't value his birth." Facing this Grand Princess who had doted on him for so many years, Wang Yue did not want to hide his thoughts.
Yi De laughed softly, "No wonder you had to put so much thought into it today. It's just that you purposely arranged for her to see me, and she doesn't seem to appreciate it."
Yue Yang had previously said beside the Spirit Creek that she did not have a cape, but she felt that something was amiss. She originally thought that Mu Yunyao would pass her cape over to her out of flattery, but she did not expect her opponent to be completely unmoved.
When he saw the scriptures that she had copied in the Blessed Buddha Palace, in addition to the look on her face when the King of Yue mentioned her, he immediately understood his intention.
"Although she is still young, she has a strong temper and always has her own plans when she speaks. I originally wanted to make her feel a bit more at ease. It seems that I have been too much trouble." As King Fu said that, he did not sound dissatisfied at all. Instead, there was more praise in his heart.
Currently, the capital was in an uproar. Almost all the young ladies of the official families had squeezed their heads out, wanting to perform a little more in front of imperial aunt. Only Yun Yao was out of the ordinary.
Seeing his expression, the smile on Eldest Princess Yi De's face deepened."You're not planning to return to western Guangdong this time, are you?"
"Yes, I want to stay in the capital. Firstly, to take care of Yunyao, and secondly ... Second, to investigate the cause of death of my mother."
In the deep darkness of the night, the surrounding pilgrims had already returned to their respective rooms to rest.
"I know that one day you will come back to this place, and one day you will want to find out what happened in the past."
"Imperial Aunt, regarding the cause of death of my mother, I must investigate it thoroughly."
The Eldest Princess Yi De slightly lowered her eyes. Under the night sky, her face seemed somewhat blurry, and no one could clearly see the turbulent emotions that flashed through her eyes."I already knew that this day would come ..."
"Royal Aunt, I'm sure you are aware of what happened that year. However, you have been secretly watching me for so many years, and yet you are unwilling to tell me the truth about what happened that year."
"So many years have passed, is the truth still that important?" To others, it might not be important anymore, but for me and my mother, no matter how many years have passed, it's just like a sore throat." "I do not believe that my mother will persecute my father's son. If my mother is truly as the rumors say, then ..."
It was said in the letter that you cannot tolerate others, so you wouldn't wait for the princes to grow up before taking action, and even then, choose to be pregnant with me ... " He had been born in the cold palace, and had heard from Supervisor Qin and Eunuch Chen, who had taken care of him since he was young, that his mother had been sentenced to death shortly after giving birth to him. The reason was that his mother had worried that the princes who had already grown up would become a threat to her children.
He simply poisoned ten mature royal brothers to death, which was why he was so detested by royal father. He didn't even care that she was pregnant, and directly locked her in the cold palace, waiting for the production to finish, and bestowed her the poison wine. This matter had caused too much trouble at first, and had even shaken the very foundations of the imperial court. The imperial court was filled with a miasma of smoke, and several large clans had joined hands to pressure their Imperial Father, hoping to directly execute their mother. And that's why ...
The reason why the princes before him were so young was because of their age.
Princess Yi De slightly opened her mouth, but then swallowed down the words that were about to leave her mouth, "I know I can't persuade you, but sometimes the truth is even more cruel ..." If I find out about it, it might not be beneficial to you..."
"Imperial Aunt, I know that you won't tell me, it must be for my own good. But as a son of a human, I can't do anything to you because of your mother's injustice. Please understand me, I want to investigate!" Princess Yi De slightly shook her head, "If you want to investigate, then go ahead and investigate. According to your character, no matter what you find out in the end, you'll be able to endure it. Come on, it's getting late, go back and rest. I will tell your father not to send you back to western Guangdong.
"
"Thank you, Imperial Aunt."
"Listen to my advice, don't get angry with your father. He arranged for you to stay in western Guangdong all these years for his own reasons ..."
"Aunt Huang, there's a gust of wind. I'll send you back." Yi De, the Grand Princess, stopped talking and nodded her head helplessly."Let's go."
