Seventy-Three · Preparation

  The lady let out a sigh of relief, and after freshening up, she found out that Master Yuankong would only be free in the afternoon, so she instructed the girls to take a rest for a while.

  This time, coming to the temple unexpectedly, she was found by Xiao Furen and Fang Furen. The matter seemed not simple, and she felt somewhat overwhelmed, but could only wait until returning home to discuss with Old Lady Song.

  After some thought, she specifically reminded Jinhuan: "You go to Sixth Miss's place and tell her to just rest well and not worry about other things."

  Recently, Song Chuyi's status in the mansion has been rising rapidly, and Jin Huan no longer dares to underestimate her. Upon hearing this, she hastily agreed and left.

  Song Chuyi had just changed her clothes when she heard that someone was looking for her outside. She furrowed her brow, and her face looked somewhat puzzled.

  Originally, Qingtuo's parents were arranged to wait in the temple, but the current situation was clearly not suitable for further questioning. She had already instructed the little monk who bought Qingtuo to release her parents from the temple. Since it wasn't Madam's person, nor was it Qingtuo's parents who originally had a connection with her, then who exactly came looking for her?

  Hong Yu also found it strange: "She said she came on orders, asked her what was going on but she wouldn't say. Just waiting outside motionless, I thought it was a bit odd."

  "Go ask her what's going on. If she doesn't say, then you can say we're going to find the adults." Song Chuyi smiled slightly as he pulled up the corner of his mouth.

  Hong Yu went as she was told and came back with a strange expression on her face, saying in a somewhat puzzled tone: "Miss, she said she was sent by the order of Prince Taishun to ask you some questions."

  Is it just a one-sided acquaintance with Prince Taeson?

  Song Chuyi's smile slowly faded, and Ta Sun looked at him as if he wasn't a foolish person. Since the unexpected event yesterday, there hasn't been any movement, so why did he suddenly come to this temple? Moreover, with his identity, even if he had something to ask, he could have summoned someone openly, and even Song Chengyu couldn't help but respond. Why would he need to send a maid to secretly find a little girl like her?

  "Go and call her in." Song Chuyi thought for a moment before finally deciding to meet this maid.

  Before long, Hong Yu led in a female official wearing palace attire, with a hairdo that was indeed one of the latest styles from the palace, and wearing an official hat.

  She was afraid that others would suspect she wasn't a palace person.

  Song Chuyi glanced at her and then looked away, seemingly casually asking: "I don't know who gave the order for you to find me, whose orders are you following?"

  "On the orders of His Highness, the Crown Prince." The female official had an arrogant demeanor and merely nodded at Song Chu-yi when they met. Upon hearing this, she seemed somewhat impatient: "His Highness wants to ask you, Miss, where did you go yesterday? And why did you need to go there? What connection does your esteemed household have with the Zhiyuan Escort Bureau?"

  Song Chuyi gave a signal to Qingtao, slowly stood up and walked towards her, took a close look at her and said: "How can the Crown Prince be so impolite? Where is the reason for entering the door without bowing to the elders and then coming to ask me, a younger generation, questions? Besides, if the Crown Prince wants to know these things, why not just go and ask our elders directly?"

  She clapped her hands and suddenly a group of robust women rushed in from outside, pouncing on the female official and pinning her to the ground.

  "How dare you!" The female officer was pinned down by several old women, unable to move, but her tone remained undiminished: "You know who I am, yet you still dare to lay hands on me?!"

  "If you are really a palace maid, I will have my grandmother take me to the imperial court to confess my crime." Song Chuyi glanced at her and waved his hand for the crowd to take her away to the mansion of the great lady.

  Jin Huan was shocked as soon as he entered the door and stood still, unsure of how to react.

  It was Song Chuyi who saw her and smiled first: "This is really a coincidence, just in time to go over, sister should go tell Big Aunt first."

  The madam did not expect that the temple would still be able to sneak in people disguised as nuns, and she was so angry that one Buddha was born and another ascended to heaven. In her heart, wave after wave of fear surged up again. If this person who sneaked in wasn't a nun but a man, or if the one they were looking for wasn't Song Chuyi but some other girl...

  She suddenly flew into a rage, and without saying another word, she ordered Jin Ling and others to give the man a good beating, and then sent someone to report to Song Ju outside.

  Song Jue thought of even more than the big madam, he found a few sturdy women to tie up the woman and wrapped her in a quilt and beat her, and also called an experienced midwife to interrogate her.

  At first, the woman still refused to confess, but later on, she gradually couldn't hold it in and finally poured out everything she knew.

  She was actually sent by Mrs. Fang and Mrs. Xiao to probe into Song Chu-yi's place first.

  What shocked Madame Song and Madame Fang even more was that Madame Fang and Madame Xiao actually still had a trump card - if Song Chuyi didn't take the bait and follow the female official to meet the so-called 'Crown Prince', there would be an ambush waiting for her when she came down the mountain at night.

  Song Chuyi couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, this Mrs. Fang was indeed ruthless enough.

  "How dare you!" The madam stood up and kicked the woman fiercely: "You are simply outrageous!"

  It's no use getting angry now, Song Chuyi frowned and looked at Song Jue: "Big brother, we should make preparations early, if they find out that the person is here, it's hard to guarantee that they won't go crazy."

  Song Ke brought out a total of more than 20 people, and it was really hard to protect so many girls and ladies, especially when the other side was from the Five Cities Military Command. It was simply hopeless.

  "Send someone back home to report the news." Song Chuyi thought for a moment, then made up her mind: "Send a few trustworthy people back separately to report the news. Grandfather must be informed of this matter, and he will make a decision."

  She saw that Song Jue wanted to leave and quickly pulled him, persuading him to dispel the idea: "The situation outside is unclear. If their target is not only me but also you, then going out now would be exactly what they want. In any case, Huangjue Temple is a famous temple with many warrior monks inside. As long as we stay here for one day, they will have to take responsibility for our safety. For now, the most important thing is our safety."

  The madam's face turned pale after being scolded by Song Chuyi, and she hurried over to pull Song Juo, saying: "Right, right, right, Little Yi is right. You can't go take risks."

  Song Jue looked at Song Chuyi with some surprise, not expecting her to be so thorough in her thinking at such a young age. At the same time, he had already made up his mind and nodded lightly: "I understand, but since this temple has repeatedly allowed people of unknown identity to sneak in, there may be a traitor among us. You must carefully inspect the vegetarian dishes and pastries they bring in, as well as the incense and candles before using them. In these uncertain times, it's better to be cautious."
