Li Woyun's disappearance after being assassinated during disaster relief work in the north caused panic in the people of Xijing. Even in the harem, Zhu Sijia heard about it.
Therefore, she couldn't help but feel a little sad in her eyes when she looked at Li Xunfeng.
But Li Xunfeng seemed unaffected by this matter.
The famous No. 1 Taoist temple in the world is actually only guarded by Li Woyun and two Taoist boys.
And Li Woyun loved to travel around a lot, and sometimes took two Taoist boys with him. Therefore, people who came to Chunyang to watch him, even those who were relatives of the emperor, always came up short.
Zhu Sijia felt that it was no coincidence that she successfully knocked on the door of Chunyang Temple this time.
Half an hour later, Yan Wei and others also successfully boarded Chunyang Temple.
What is even more unexpected is that Yan Wei did not follow the example of others and call him Li Xunfeng and Li Guanzhu, but directly called him senior brother.
Li Xunfeng smiled and saluted him in a Taoist ritual: "Blessings Immeasurable Heavenly Lord, junior brother, long time no see."
Zhu Sijia and Yu Xin looked at each other and looked at each other. Yan Wei, why is Yan Wei the junior brother of Guanzhu Li?
After going around in circles, it turned out that the group of people in Xijing City were all spinning in a circle.
Yan Xiu grabbed Zhu Sijia's hand and slowly wrote the word "Tao Zhi" in her palm.
Tao Zhi Dao, Yan Wei's nickname is Tao Zhi. It seems that he is not just related to Taoism, but he has truly worshiped Taoism and practiced in Chunyang Temple, and may even have a high level of cultivation.
After all, Zhu Sijia had witnessed Yan Wei's appearance when he was angry.
No wonder, Zhu Sijia had always felt that it was a pity that Yan Wei's natural Taoist spirit fell on a wild and unruly person like him.
But now it seems that this is clearly the Qi Yun he cultivated.
Zhu Sijia is glad that she is always wary of Yan Wei. How many people have been deceived by Yan Wei's appearance of a romantic playboy?
Yan Xiu: "Don't worry, King Xiang is just a dabbler. He can't do anything and can't harm others."
Yan Wei: "...Your Majesty said yes."
…
Yan Xiu led everyone to pray together in strict accordance with Taoist etiquette.
Zhu Sijia worked very seriously and did not dare to slack off at all, for fear that the gods would not bless Zhu Yuancun and Ren Huai because of her.
After another half an hour, the prayer was completed.
Yu Xin led Yun Shang to Guanzhu Li and silently glanced at Yan Xiu. Yan Xiu wisely ordered the people to step aside and cleared the Sanqing Hall for her.
The dragon guards who accompanied him also spread out and stood in all directions, not sparing any corner of Chunyang Temple.
Zhu Sijia was startled by this battle. What was she going to do?
When she was feeling doubtful, Yan Xiu asked her: "Is Cicada interested in visiting Mr. Li?"
Zhu Sijia: "Master Li...which Master Li?"
There were many officials named Li in the court, and she would never think of Li Woyun who had disappeared for a long time.
Yan Xiu: "Of course Mr. Li, the Minister of Honglu Temple."
Zhu Sijia's eyes widened, she covered her mouth and asked Yan Xiu: "He is actually still alive?"
Yan Xiu: "Yes, Li Woyun is at Chunyang Temple now, and Cicada will follow me."
Then I really have to congratulate Li Woyun, Zhu Sijia said in her heart.
I wish Scarlett: "I obey my command."
Although she was not familiar with Li Woyun, she did not want to waste the opportunity to make good friends with Li Woyun.
After all, Li Woyun in his previous life took over the position of prime minister after Prime Minister Zhang fell, and became the youngest prime minister in the history of the Qin Dynasty.
He even held power for a time until after Yan Xiu's death, and he and Yan Xing, who became the regent, fought against each other for many years, which caused many headaches for Yan Xing.
Previously, she thought that Li Woyun was unfortunately killed and had no chance of survival. She was still feeling guilty because her selfish desires had implicated the fate of countless people and caused Li Woyun to die young.
But now that he is still alive, his relatives will be liquidated by Yan Xiu in advance, which means that he will become prime minister earlier than in his previous life.
Climbing up to the future prime minister in advance may not necessarily bring any benefits, but it certainly won't do any harm.
When she actually arrived at the door of Li Woyun's resting room, Zhu Sijia felt nervous.
She later realized that the news that Li Woyun was still alive was a shocking secret, and the court was still searching for his "remains".
Yan Xiu disclosed this news to a woman in the harem in such a grand manner?
Didn’t he always dislike the harem’s involvement in politics? What did he mean by this? Was he trying to test himself?
Zhu Sijia sat upright and said, "I have crossed the line, so I won't go into the house to visit Mr. Li. Your Majesty, just pretend that I don't know anything about today's matter."
Yan Xiu pulled her back and asked affectionately: "Cicada thinks I'm testing you?"
Sure enough, none of her thoughts could escape Yan Xiu's eyes.
Zhu Sijia gritted her teeth: "I don't dare! I just thought that as Jieyu, I must shoulder the responsibility of taking care of the courtiers together with His Majesty, so I agreed more readily. But I don't dare to forget that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics. The ancestral teachings, please forgive me."
She still lives her life carefully.
It's sensible to do this to a woman you don't like, but she is the one Yan Xiu likes, so doing this will only make him feel bad.
Yan Xiu gently held her in his arms and reached out to touch the back of her head: "Cicada, this is not a test, so don't worry."
"I know that you are not happy in the palace. Even if I can send you all the treasures in the world, I still can't give you what you really want. But I am the emperor, and I want to protect my country and the country. , I am responsible for the common people, and I am often unable to help myself."
"You may not believe it, but in the many moments we spent together, I really had the urge to grow old with you, Muxue, no matter what."
"Since the last dispute between you and me, I have been reflecting on myself. Since I can't really do whatever I want, the only thing I can give you in the cold Qin Palace is a sincere heart. But you still don't want to believe that as a person The emperor also has sincerity, you can't hide it from me."
"The most important way to prove your sincerity is to have unreserved trust and to be honest in everything. Cicada, I am already learning how to like someone, and I am changing my past habits of being indiscriminate and suspicious."
"It's a pity that I don't have the ability to please you, let alone make you believe that I trust you, so I came up with this trick. I hope you believe me. It was my fault for scaring you just now."
His heartfelt words made Zhu Sijia feel numb and unable to think.
It turns out...it turns out that his purpose in telling her this today was not just to trust her, but also to gain her trust?
He shouldn't and can't give his sincerity so easily.
She herself carries a shocking secret that she cannot tell anyone. This secret will remain rotten in her stomach until she dies in this life, otherwise she will never reveal it under any circumstances.
Yan Xiu is now willing to break his own principles and tell her everything without reservation. What should she do?
If she were a careless person, she would just take full advantage of Yan Xiu and then turn around and leave without mercy, without feeling any guilt at all.
But she meant it.
She seemed to be really learning to like Yan Xiu.
Zhu Sijia's tears quickly wet Yan Xiu's clothes.
