Attack

Jiang Changning held on and followed the Queen Mother in various halls to kowtow to the Buddha and Bodhisattva, burn incense and pray devoutly.

After all the hard work, it was already the first moment of the morning. Jiang Changning, who had just eaten something on the carriage, was already so hungry that his chest pressed against his back.

"Is there anything to eat?" Princess De approached Jiang Changning and asked in a low voice.

Jiang Changning took out two small pieces of pastry from his purse, secretly gave one to her, and quickly stuffed the other into his mouth.

These small pastries were originally made for Xiaobai to eat. Prince Jin asked her to take them with her when she went out, and now they come in handy.

It seems that King Jin had already expected this situation.

"Monks are very particular about not eating after lunch, and we are not monks. Why are we going to starve?" Princess Changshan also quietly came over, complaining in a low voice.

Jiang Changning took out a small piece of pastry and stuffed it into her, "I'll let them find something to eat later. Just bear with it for now."

"Hmm," Crown Princess Changshan hummed while holding the cake in her mouth.

Under the leadership of the Queen Mother, the female relatives entered the lecture hall and sat cross-legged.

Banqin came back at this time, carrying a food box in his hand.

While a group of people were thinking, the sound of swords fighting could be heard outside.

The sermon lasted for half an hour, and if Jiang Changning hadn't been hungry, he would have fallen asleep while listening to it.

After finishing the simple dinner, Princess De and Princess Changshan said thank you, got up and left, and went back to their rooms to rest. They would have evening classes later.

Sitting in front was an old monk with white eyebrows who looked like an old monk who had read Buddhist scriptures. "Amitabha, today I am the almsgiver to all of you, and I am talking about the Shurangama Sutra."

Before the two men with knives who broke in could say anything, Princess Qing said: "Princess Jin and Princess De are here, take them out."

Evening classes are held after the monks’ evening classes in the temple, which is at the beginning of the Youshi period.

As soon as Xiaochun tidied up the room, Princess Changshan came and said, "Ningning, is there anything to eat?"

There are thirty-six lay residences in Huangjue Temple, large and small.

Outside the house, a man in black waved a knife to deflect arrows shot from nowhere.

"Amitabha, that's it for today. Thank you all the donors."

Princess De and Princess Changshan laughed and said in unison: "I knew you had something to eat here."

"Amitabha, Buddha's Dharma is boundless." The Queen Mother said respectfully.

Of course, in the temple, there is no meat or fish smell, only tofu and cabbage for safety, plus two steamed buns per person.

If someone asked her, she would answer honestly: "I don't understand."

Did he deliberately lure them out of the city so that King Qing could make trouble?

But she is already the Empress Dowager, and she joins forces with Prince Qing to rebel against her grandson. What does she want to do?

"Obviously." Jiang Changning answered with a smile.

After the monks exited one by one, the female relatives entered under the leadership of the Queen Mother and sat down. More than a quarter of an hour had passed.

The person who led them in reciting "The Buddha Speaks of the Amitabha Sutra" was a middle-aged monk, "I heard that at one time the Buddha was in Savatthi State, and he only planted trees in the lonely garden with the great monks."

"Master Xinghe, please give a lecture." The Queen Mother said with her hands clasped together.

However, the two men were not able to successfully take away Jiang Changning and Princess De, so Xiao Chun and the others took action.

Princess De smiled and asked: "Is Prince Qing going to rebel?"

"Ah!" The female family members near the door were frightened and screamed when they saw this.

Jiang Changning smiled, "Some people think they are a yellow bird, but they don't want to be a praying mantis."

Jiang Changning, Princess De and Princess Changshan raised their eyebrows at the same time and said the same thing, "Money can make ghosts grind. With money, a monk who doesn't eat after lunch can also cook."

Before Jiang Changning could answer, Princess De came in and asked the same question: "Ning Ning, is there anything to eat?"

The Queen Mother returned the favor and said, "Amitabha, thank you very much, Master. I will trouble you again during evening classes."

Then he called to the people fighting with the guards at the door, "You two come in and help."

The largest room is occupied by the Queen Mother.

"They brought us to Huangjue Temple just to threaten us."

Princess Qing's face changed drastically, "You, you also arranged for manpower?"

"The little guy with a straight protuberance behaves dirty and only targets women and children."

"What happened?" the Queen Mother asked displeasedly.

Seeing that the two people had not been able to catch Jiang Changning and Princess De, Princess Qing angrily cursed: "Useless things."

"Who are you?" asked the Queen Mother.

"Ah!" A scream brought the Queen Mother back from her thoughts. She took a closer look and saw that it was a noble lady who did not hide far enough. She was affected and her arm was cut.

"Don't be proud, we haven't decided who will win yet." Prince Qing's concubine sneered.

Everyone around Jiang Changning and Princess De are skilled in martial arts, so they are obviously not ordinary maids.

Jiang Changning, Princess De and Princess Yu Zhao Xifang live in the courtyard on the left. The other female family members live in the same courtyard as three or four according to their rank.

Princess Qing did not expect that they would face a menacing man with a bloody sword in his hand. Even if they were not afraid, they would still dare to speak carelessly. She coldly snorted, "I don't know whether to live or die."

It is said that it is better to sleep hungry than to eat well, but when you are really hungry, you cannot sleep.

"I spent some money and asked the master in the temple to cook it." Ban Qin said as he took out the food from the food box.

When Jiang Changning heard this, he was only surprised for a moment, and then he realized that Prince Qing had already taken action, and he couldn't wait! They had only been to Huangjue Temple for a day!

Under the protection of the palace maid, the Queen Mother retreated to the pillar. Seeing this scene, she said bitterly: "They all have their own agendas."

Jiang Changning does not believe in Buddhism, but she has a sense of awe, but she really has no talent in Buddhism, so she was confused when she heard it.

The emperor was in a coma. She expected that there would be chaos, but she didn't expect that the chaos would be caused by Prince Qing.

What can she gain by pushing King Qing to the throne?

It's impossible for Prince Qing to make her his queen, right?

Or is she also using Prince Qing to imitate Empress Wu and ascend the throne as empress?

"Where did you get it?" Jiang Changning asked.

None of the people two generations senior to the little emperor came to the temple.

Jiang Changning read along. As for the Buddhist meaning in it, unfortunately, she didn't know, and she didn't even understand it.

The Queen Mother suddenly thought that she was the Queen Mother, and asked her to issue an order to bring all the female relatives to Huangjue Temple to pray for blessings.

Two people came in, but they fell in headfirst, with arrows dangling from their chests.

Master Xinghe said loudly: "Amitabha, open your eyes and see light, close your eyes and see darkness. What you see is different, and the nature of your seeing remains unchanged."

"Bang" the door was knocked open, and the person who opened the door was a bloody corpse.

Jiang Changning looked at the sky silently. She looked like a foodie?

Under the leadership of the Queen Mother, the female family members exited the lecture hall and went to the lay community.

Could it be that the Empress Dowager and Prince Qing joined forces?

They knew something was going to happen, but they didn't warn her.

Arrows were shot at them without distinction, whether they were the Queen Mother's guards or the rebels.

Inside the house, although Xiaochun and the others had many people, they had no weapons in their hands. They could not use their full strength to gain the upper hand in the fight with the two men.

"If we continue fighting like this, we will lose. Ning Ning, think of something." Princess De frowned.

Jiang Changning looked around, trying to find some handy weapon.
