Golden Age Of Phoenix: Tyrant’s First Class Virtuous Imperial Concubine

Ruo Shui immediately stepped forward and said, "Just now, Her Royal Highness said that it's a little stuffy here, so I need to go out to get some air."

Nan Yan said: "Don't let her run around, find her back quickly."

"Yes."

Ruo Shui immediately asked people to go out to have a look, but only after a glance did he find that the figure of Her Royal Highness could not be found around this side hall, and when I asked the people around, they all said that they had not seen Her Royal Highness.

Nan Yan frowned immediately.

At this time, when the monk Shikong heard what was going on here, he hurried over to serve him, and he said, "Miss, the poor monk's little apprentice has disappeared. Someone just saw the two of them together, I'm afraid it's him. I don't know where I took Her Royal Highness to play."

Hearing what he said, Nan Yan was slightly relieved.

In fact, she didn't think there could be any accidents in this place. After all, after the previous incident, Zhu Feng could not allow any traitors to appear in Daci'en Temple. It was just that she was too naughty, and she didn't want this girl to make trouble here. what comes out.

So he said, "Let someone go and get them back."

Shi Kong said: "Yes."

After he finished speaking, he sent a few monks under his command to let them look around.

On the other side, the monk Buji took Mingxin and Xinping out of the back door of the kitchen, walked along the bluestone-paved path for a while, and came to the door of Ermen in the backyard of Daci'en Temple. is locked.

It was so quiet here that there was not even the sound of birds.

Xinping looked around and said, "Where are the hungry people? You are not lying to this princess, are you?"

The monk Buji took out a bunch of keys from his waist and said with a smile: "Your Highness, how dare the poor monk lie to you? It's just that no matter what you see, don't be frightened, let alone shout. "

Xinping said, "I won't be scared!"

"That's good."

Then the monk Buji walked to the small door, unlocked the door, and pushed open the small door with a creak.

Then he waved to Xinping: "Princess, come and see."

He walked up suspiciously.

This is a second gate in the northeast corner of Daci'en Temple. There is a long corridor outside. It is a shortcut from the backyard to the lecture hall. Ordinary pilgrims will not come here, even if it is in the temple. Not many monks usually come here, so this place is always very quiet.

But at this moment, there are all people here!

These people were in ragged clothes, yellow-faced and skinny, even skinny to the point of only bones. It was probably because the monk Buji had just brought them steamed buns. Some people had a mouthful or two left in their hands. Thus, the deeply sunken eyes of their scrawny faces were filled with hunger.

This thirst seemed to devour their sanity and spirit.

When they looked at others, there was no human look in those empty eyes, just like a wide mouth.

That sullen look made people shudder.

Seeing them like this, my heart shuddered calmly, I took two steps back subconsciously, my heel hit the threshold and almost fell, but fortunately, I was able to hold her with my eyes and hands.

"Your Highness, be careful."

After the heart has stabilized, people are still a little dazed, look back at Mingxin, and then look at the people with yellow faces and thin skin, especially some women are still holding dying babies in their arms. These babies can't eat the steamed bread, but the mother The shriveled bodies have long run out of milk, and they are so hungry that they can't even cry.

Although Xinping didn't know what was going on, his eyes turned red subconsciously, and he said to Mingxin with a crying voice: "What's going on? What's going on?"

The monk Buji said: "Little Highness, they are the hungry."

"..."

"They couldn't afford to eat in their hometown, so they had to escape from the famine. These people were lucky enough to enter Jinling City. The temple took them in, but there was no more to eat. It was the limit to give them one adult and one steamed bun every day. ."

Xinping couldn't believe his ears.

In her eyes, her father is omnipotent. As long as he is the emperor, everyone under the sky will be happy and safe. How could it be like this?

She covered her ears and said loudly, "You lied to me! I don't believe it, I don't believe it!"

At this time, the hungry people were a little commotion.

They fled to Jinling City, where they were chased around by the government and wanted to drive them out of the city. They could only escape to the Da Ci'en Temple, where the monks took in them with mercy. Originally, they were allowed to live in the backyard of the temple, but these days, when I heard that the emperor was coming, I drove them to the alley outside the second gate, so that they were not allowed to speak, let alone children cry. If the emperor saw them, he would definitely cut off their heads.

Just now, they heard that the monk Buji actually called the girl "Little Highness" and immediately understood her identity.

Several of the adults walked up to Xinping, knelt down and said, "Your Highness Princess, you have pity on us, don't drive us away!"

Xinping was frightened by their appearance, hurriedly stepped back, stumbled under his feet, and fell to the ground.

She was so frightened that she cried.

"Father! Mother and concubine!"

At this moment, the person who was looking for her in the distance heard the sound here and hurried over.

The little **** next to the imperial concubine, Eunuch Delu, walked the fastest with the people. When she saw Xinping sitting on the ground crying, there were a few ragged people kneeling in front of her, and she immediately rushed to Xinping.

"Protect the princess!"

The guards hurriedly pulled out the knives at their waists and faced the hungry people.

At this time, the monk Shikong who came over saw this situation and immediately said, "Stop! Stop it!"

He came over and said to Delu: "Father-in-law, father-in-law, don't misunderstand, they are not bad people, they are just—just the hungry people taken in by this monastery."

Delu frowned, but ignored him, first helped Princess Xinping and asked, "Your Highness Princess, are you alright?"

There were tears in the heart's big eyes.

While sobbing, she looked at the frightened starving people, then turned to Delu and said, "I want to see my mother and concubine, and I want to see my father. I want to ask them, what's going on?"

Delu has been with the imperial concubine for many years. As soon as he saw these hungry people with yellow faces and thin skin, he already knew something was wrong. He didn't expect that the monk Shikong was so bold and actually hid the hungry people in the Daci'en Temple where the emperor sacrificed. The princess is going to ask the emperor and the concubine again, isn't this an obvious slap in the face of the emperor?

So he said softly: "Little Highness, this is impossible."

"I do not care!"

Xin Ping was also confused at this time, he threw off his hand and said, "I must ask clearly!"

After saying that, he turned and ran forward.
