"Let's go over and take a look. I heard that the queen from the palace is here today!"
As soon as she arrived outside, Su Liuye saw several women running towards the lotus pond excitedly.
After hearing their words, Su Liuye's eyes flickered slightly and she followed them.
The backyard of Lingyuan Temple is for the use of the royal family. Even though it is noon, there are not many people on the way to the backyard.
As Su Liuye walked over, the girls who were walking in front of her were discussing in whispers. Su Liuye also probably heard something. It was probably the empress from the palace who came to worship. If they were lucky, they might meet Huang Zi who came from the palace. If Huang Zi liked her, they could fly to the branches. Became a phoenix.
Hearing them talking about these words, Su Liuye subconsciously walked slowly to avoid being caught by them eavesdropping.
When passing a courtyard, Su Liuye glanced in that direction, and when she turned around, the girls who were walking in front were gone.
She quickly chased after her, only to realize that there was a fork in the road ahead, and the person walking in front of her just now didn't know which way she took.
Su Liuye was anxious for a while, she didn't expect that she would be lost here!
If she followed, she might really be able to find the fifth princess here.
She told Qin Lian yesterday that she was just here for a visit, which was actually an excuse. She just came here to find the fifth princess!
If the person who attacked her was really the fifth princess, then the fifth princess must have a reason to do it. If the fifth princess found out that she appeared in front of him as if nothing happened, the fifth princess would definitely be angry.
She came here today to see what kind of expression the fifth princess would have when they saw her, so as to determine whether the person who attacked her was actually the fifth princess.
But now, she has lost track!
Su Liuye was angry, there were three ways in front of her.
If she waited for Qin Lian to come over, Qin Lian would probably not let her pass. After much deliberation, Su Liuye chose a path and walked quickly that way.
At the end of the path was a small courtyard. As soon as Su Liuye came over, he saw a bare tree in the courtyard, which looked very cold. There was also a frozen river next to it, and it was bare everywhere.
Su Liuye shuddered as the cold wind blew, thinking that she might have done something wrong.
"Did you really see it?"
Just as he was thinking about leaving, a voice suddenly came from not far away, with some vigilance.
Does this sound sound familiar?
Su Liuye stopped and looked in the direction of the sound source. Through the window on the wall, she saw two people standing under the tree not far away. One of them was wearing a heavy robe and had a serious face.
Is it Grandma Wu?
She frowned and recognized at a glance that this aunt was Nanny Wu who was accompanying the Fifth Princess, whom she had met in the Fifth Prince's Mansion.
Aunt Wu is here... She squinted her eyes, it seemed that the fifth princess must be here too.
It turned out that I was right to come today!
"Really, I really saw it, grandma! She was still worshiping Buddha when she stayed in the front yard!" A man dressed as a servant stood in front of Grandma Wu and said.
Mother Wu looked thoughtful in her face and looked in the direction the servant said.
"Mommy, what should we do now?"
"Go and watch first, don't let her go yet."
"Okay, mama, I understand!" He agreed, turned around and left, looking very dishonest.
Su Liuye frowned, always feeling that the person they were talking about was her.
Could it be because she and Qin Lian were seen worshiping Buddha in the front yard just now, and this person immediately ran over to tell Grandma Wu?
The Fifth Prince’s Mansion is indeed here today!
If I guessed correctly, the fifth princess is here, right?
Su Liuye hid aside to avoid being seen by the running servant. After her teammates left, she came out from the corner and looked towards the yard again. Mother Wu stood there as if thinking about something.
After a while, Nanny Wu walked towards the side room.
Su Liuye looked over and saw two maids standing over there. After Nanny Wu approached, the maid opened the door.
From this angle, you can't see what's going on inside the house at all.
But if she guessed correctly, the fifth princess must be inside, but she couldn't follow her in.
After thinking for a moment, she hurried back along the original path. She originally wanted to go back to the temple and pretend to be worshiping Buddha, but who knew that she met a servant in gray clothes as soon as she walked towards the path.
Su Liuye wanted to hide to the side, but her reaction was too slow, and the other party saw her face immediately.
There was a hint of surprise on the servant's face, and he quickly recognized her.
Su Liuye pursed her lips and pretended to pass by as if nothing had happened. She stared at the person behind her from the corner of her eye and could clearly see the calculation in his eyes.
Before she could look further, the man had already turned around and ran towards the courtyard, probably to report to the fifth princess.
It seems that the fifth princess has regarded her as a thorn in her side.
Su Liuye quickened her pace and walked into the temple. Qin Lian was no longer here. He probably went out to look for her after praying to the Buddha.
It is not yet known why the fifth princess targeted her in this way. Su Liuye did not move around at will, for fear that the fifth princess's people were looking for her outside at the moment.
After Qin Lian came back, she went down the mountain.
The purpose of her trip here was to see if the person who attacked her was really the fifth princess. Now she didn't need to test it. The people from the fifth princess had already admitted it, so she didn't need to stay here anymore.
"This little lady."
A young monk walked up to her quickly, clasped his hands together and said, "Do you have a friend wearing scarlet clothes?"
"Yes."
Qin Lian was wearing scarlet clothes today, "What happened?"
"Your friend just went out after paying homage to the Buddha. She seemed to have encountered some trouble. I asked the young lady to come in with the girl, so I wanted to come over and let you know." He said and pointed outside, "That's right there. Outside."
Su Liuye had an ominous premonition as she listened. She immediately followed the direction the monk said and found that this was also the road leading to the backyard. She was secretly surprised.
But thinking that Qin Lian was still waiting for her, she quickened her pace. Before she got closer, she heard noise coming from the yard in front of her, as if someone was talking loudly, and Qin Lian's voice was also mixed in.
"...I didn't bump into him on purpose. It was obviously because you guys were walking by without looking at the road that you bumped into him! Why is it all my fault now?"
"How dare you refute!" Someone immediately refuted Qin Lian loudly, scolding in a sharp voice, "Whether you did it on purpose or not, you just bumped into His Highness and knocked off His Highness's jade pendant! Now the jade pendant fell to the ground and shattered. Now, you still want to leave like this? That’s so presumptuous!”
