Chapter 330 The mountain road is clear

   "I'm quite afraid, and I'm more worried about your safety." Qiao Zhao said calmly.

   Up to now, she clearly remembers the shudder when she noticed someone behind her, and the despair when she was controlled by the murderer.

   "It hurts you, but fortunately you're fine."

   "Master—"

   Wumei Shitai withdrew his gaze and looked at the snow-white wall: "I know you have a lot to ask, but these things are not for you as a little girl. Good boy, forget about these when you go down the mountain."

   "Master's meaning is—" Qiao Zhao's heart moved.

   Wumei Shitai smiled calmly: "Only the poor nun and Jingxi are left in Shuying'an. The poor nun does not plan to stay in Shuying'an, and you don't have to come in the future."

  Qiao Zhao was a little surprised and asked after a moment of silence, "After that, who will accompany Shitai to copy the scriptures?"

   She got along with Wumei Shitai for just a few months. In that small quiet room, Wumei Shitai recited scriptures, and she copied Buddhist scriptures. Every seven days, she copied the scriptures without distraction, didn't she let her restless heart settle down in the torment?

   If Qiao Zhao had her own plans for approaching Wumei Shitai at the beginning, then now she is indeed a bit reluctant.

   "Silly boy, no one accompanies the poor nanny to copy the scriptures for so many years. You don't have to worry too much about it."

   "Then can I see Mrs. Shi in the future?" Qiao Zhao asked.

   She always felt that Master Wumei was too determined to leave Shuying Nunnery.

   "Maybe, maybe not, who knows. Poor Ni is hungry, go and cook me a bowl of porridge."

  Qiao Zhao took out the agarwood beads: "Master, your beads."

   Wumei Shitai didn't answer: "I'll give you this string of beads, I hope it can keep you safe."

   "Thank you, Shitai." Qiao Zhao knew that Wumei Shitai didn't like pushing, so he took the beads and walked out.

   Shao Mingyuan was waiting outside the door.

   "Abbot, the master asked me to cook porridge for her, but I don't know where the kitchen is?"

   "Jing Xu, take Miss Li to the kitchen."

  Shao Mingyuan followed: "Miss Li, I'll go with you."

   At this time, the kitchen of Dafu Temple was empty. Qiao Zhao cooked porridge and sat on the small tumbler beside him in a trance.

   "Didn't the teacher say anything?"

   "Yes." Qiao Zhao came back to his senses, fiddled with the firewood, and said softly, "Master is leaving Shuying Nunnery, so I don't have to come in the future."

   "It's okay not to come."

  Qiao Zhao stopped his movements and looked at Shao Mingyuan.

   Shao Mingyuan took the tongs from Qiao Zhao and said lightly, "This time, maybe it's just the beginning."

   "Why does General Shao think so?"

  Shao Mingyuan smiled: "It's probably intuition. The tree wants to be quiet, but the wind doesn't stop. That Orion and Monk Kongyun have been dormant for so many years, how can the forces behind them give up if they don't get what they want?"

   "Yes." Qiao Zhao sighed.

   In front of Wumei Shitai just now, she didn't even think about asking what the two murderers were looking for, because she knew that even if she asked Wumei Shitai, she wouldn't say anything.

   "This matter is just the beginning for Wumei Shitai and others, but for Miss Li, it's the end of it. It's not a bad thing."

   "Yes." Qiao Zhao nodded.

   Everyone has curiosity, but more often we need to learn to control this curiosity.

   "Miss Li, in fact, you can consider teaching my cronies acupuncture and moxibustion to detoxify. In that case, I don't have to trouble you to go every day. I promise that my cronies will not pass it on to anyone after they learn it."

   Qiao Zhao squinted at the man beside him, and was almost happy.

   has been focusing on this for a long time, and he has not given up letting people follow her to learn acupuncture!

   "So General Shao is planning to cross the river and demolish the bridge?" Miss Qiao asked coldly.

   That **** used her as a quilt for the night, and now tell her this?

   "No, Miss Li misunderstood, I just think it's too much trouble for you."

   "I don't mind being troublesome." Miss Qiao stopped directly.

  Shao Mingyuan opened his mouth, and finally found that he really didn't know how to explain it, so he just kept silent.

"The porridge is ready." Qiao Zhao got up and poured out the porridge, leaving a bowl on the kitchen table. When he went out with the porridge, he turned around and said, "General Shao, drink that bowl of porridge, and I will return after I deliver the porridge. Bamboo House will give you acupuncture."

   Shao Mingyuan stared at the steaming porridge for a while, took a sip, and then his handsome face turned into a pig liver color.

   Burned to death!

  Shuying'an's murder ended with Shitai Wumei's silence.

  Qiao Zhao and Shao Mingyuan returned to the bamboo house. After acupuncture and moxibustion for him, they finally couldn't stand it any longer: "I'll go to sleep, and General Shao will call me if anything happens."

   "Okay." After Qiao Zhao left, Shao Mingyuan woke up after sleeping for about an hour, pushed open the door and walked out.

   A grey dove landed at his feet.

   He took out the note carried by the pigeon, unfolded it, and crushed the note and threw it into the wind.

  Qiao Zhao slept until noon before waking up. He walked out top-heavy, and the people outside turned around.

   "Has General Shao rested?"

  Last night was quite frightening. At this moment, the monks in Dafu Temple were probably all making up their sleep.

   "I slept." Shao Mingyuan pointed to the wooden basin on the rock, "The spring water, Miss Li, wash your face."

   "Uh, thank you." Qiao Zhao was a little surprised, but there was no expression on his face. He leaned over to pick up the spring water and washed his face. The feeling of being top-heavy was gone, and he was refreshed.

   Shao Mingyuan handed over a cup of tea.

   Qiao Zhao looked up at him.

   "Boiled spring water."

   "Thank you." Qiao Zhao thanked again.

  Shao Mingyuan sat down: "I received news from outside the mountain again."

  Qiao Zhao held the teacup and did not move.

   Shao Mingyuan's voice was very low: "I asked my subordinates to find out what happened to Mingkang in five years."

   Qiao Zhao's heart moved.

  Mingkang five years—

   She thought he would wait until he went out to investigate, but she did not expect that he had already started to investigate.

   "There are two major events in Mingkang's five years." Before Qiao Zhao asked, Shao Mingyuan whispered to her, "The first one is that Jingyuan Hou, the general of the Northern Expedition, was sentenced to be beheaded for the crime of collaborating with the enemy."

  Qiao Zhao trembled inexplicably after hearing this, and asked, "What about the second one?"

   "The second incident happened before Jingyuanhou was convicted of collaborating with the enemy. At the beginning of the fifth year of Mingkang, King Su rebelled."

   "King Su?" Qiao Zhao thought about it carefully and muttered, "The Lingnan Rebellion?"

   Shao Mingyuan raised his eyebrows: "Miss Li also knows about the Lingnan Rebellion?"

Twenty years after the    Lingnan Rebellion, almost no one mentioned this rebellion that lasted less than three months. He also had a vague impression when he saw the message brought by the carrier pigeon, but he had forgotten which book he had read this vague impression from, or had it been mentioned by someone inadvertently.

   "I once read an unofficial history, which vaguely mentioned a sentence."

   "Although it should have nothing to do with this kind of event when Shitai Wumei went down the mountain that year, the fifth year of Mingkang is indeed a very special year."

   "Does General Shao still plan to investigate further?"

  Shao Mingyuan smiled: "Let's check first. By the way, the mountain road will be clear in a few days."

   "I hope to get in sooner, the family should be in a hurry."

   After a few days, with a burst of cheers, the mountain road was finally cleared.
