Chapter 2097 Rumors spread
Fox Three turned around and said:

"I do not go!"

"You better leave! If you get caught, no one will be able to take me away from here."

Taozhi didn't want Hu San to take risks for her. This was not a deep mountain, and Hu San had no advantage, not to mention that there was a master next to him who was eyeing him covetously.

Hu San knew that Tao Zhi was right. He was under great pressure here. In addition, with Pu Ze, the bald donkey, if he was really caught, he would have no chance to save Tao Zhi, so he could only whisper:

"wait for me!"

Then, in full view of everyone, Fox Three turned into a wisp of green smoke and disappeared.

The faces of the palace guards who had gathered around were filled with fear and surprise, and their eyes towards Tao Zhi changed. They had also heard the rumor that Concubine Tao was a monster, but today it seemed that maybe that was not just a rumor.

Ling Xuanyu hurried to Tao Zhi's side, helped her up, and asked:
"Are you OK?"

Taozhi moved aside to avoid the emperor's support and said in a light tone:
"I'm fine."

Then he stopped talking, ignored everyone's gazes, and turned back to Lianyan Pavilion.

The palace maids and eunuchs in Lianyan Pavilion didn't dare to make a sound. They followed Taozhi obediently a few steps behind her and welcomed her into the room.

Ling Xuanyu's face finally turned gloomy. He watched Taozhi return to the bedroom, then turned to look at Monk Pu Ze.

"Master, are you entering the palace late at night to capture that evildoer?"

"Amitabha! I am sorry for being rude."

Pu Ze had the honor of meeting Ling Xuanyu when he went to the Huguo Temple to pray. Although it happened suddenly, he still apologized first and then explained the situation.

When the emperor learned that Monk Pu Ze was entrusted by the abbot to go down the mountain to look for someone, and then encountered the fox demon with some magical powers causing trouble on the way, he chased him all the way. Only then did he have the opportunity to prevent his Concubine Peach from being taken away by the demon.

Ling Xuanyu lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then sincerely invited Monk Pu Ze to stay in the palace temporarily. The reason was already clear: the fox demon did not take Concubine Tao away tonight, and might take further action. In order to avoid harming innocent people, Monk Pu Ze needed to stay in the palace.

Monk Pu Ze thought about it and did not refuse the emperor's invitation, because he had found the person he was looking for, but now she was the emperor's concubine, so he could not bring her back to the Huguo Temple, but he could still take care of her.

Based on his understanding of Fox Three, the other party would definitely not give up. However, it now seems that the female donor he is looking for seems to have a deep connection with the fox demon, and the female donor obviously left with the fox demon voluntarily.

To sum up, Monk Pu Ze finally decided to stay in the palace temporarily, and at Ling Xuanyu's request, he also made some arrangements outside the Lanyan Pavilion to ensure that the fox demon could not sneak in quietly again.

Taozhi saw all this and was angry, but there was nothing she could do. She was just an ordinary person and did not have such omnipotent abilities. She could only pray that Fox San would not be captured.

Taozhi doesn't know yet that a bigger conspiracy is quietly approaching her.

They made quite a noise that night. The people the Queen had stationed near the Lianyan Pavilion watched the whole thing and were terrified. They went to deliver a letter to the Queen before dawn.

The Queen was also shocked when she heard the news, because she had previously thought that the previous dynasty and the harem had joined forces to get rid of Concubine Tao, who was "unreliable" but the most favored woman in the harem. The so-called "evil concubine who brought disaster to the country" was just a high-sounding excuse. She just didn't expect that Concubine Tao herself was not a monster, but was connected to monsters.

She turned around twice on the ground, and finally made up her mind and said to the eunuch who was her confidant:
“This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to break the news to my dad, and he knows exactly what to do.”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" The Queen's trusted eunuch went out to deliver the letter. At the same time, some well-informed concubines in the harem also took the opportunity to send the message back home. A big net to destroy Peach Branch was slowly spreading.

On the other side, the escaped Fox San did not leave Kyoto. He still wanted to take Taozhi away, but the existence of the bald donkey Pu Ze added a lot of difficulties to him. He knew that if he wanted to save people again, he had to plan carefully and must succeed in one go.

Just as Fox Three was making a plan, a rumor spread in Kyoto, and the protagonist of the rumor was Momozhi.

This time, Taozhi was implicated by him and was dubbed "the evil concubine who brought disaster to the country". She was also linked to the drought in the northwest. All officials and people believed that it was because the emperor favored the evil concubine that God sent down the disaster as a warning.

All officials submitted memorials to the emperor, requesting that Concubine Tao be allowed to offer sacrifices to heaven to appease the wrath of heaven, so that the drought in the northwest could be alleviated. Otherwise, the emperor would be the sinner of the world.

Some people who did not know the truth were also instigated to gather in front of the palace gate, kneeling down and begging the emperor to deal with the evildoer and quell the drought in the northwest. Some even threatened that if the emperor was reluctant, they would rush into the palace and kill the evil Concubine Tao.

Things escalated, which was something Ling Xuanyu had not expected. Monk Pu Ze was a little puzzled by the madness of the people and officials, because he knew very well that Tao Zhi was innocent. Since he couldn't bring her back to the Huguo Temple, he had to protect her.

Just when things were at a stalemate and Fox Three was ready to risk his life to rescue Taozhi, the abbot of Huguo Temple, Master Puxian, brought the monks into the palace to ask for a meeting.

The abbot of Huguo Temple, Master Puxian, is old and will not leave the temple easily unless it is something important. This time he came to see the emperor in such a grand manner, so the matter must be something serious.

Many people speculated that Master Puxian came to subdue the evildoers, and everyone applauded and waited to see how things would develop.

Pu Ze was also surprised by the abbot's arrival, but he still followed the emperor to welcome him into the palace.

Although Puxian had white hair and beard, he had sharp hearing and eyesight. He explained to the emperor the reason for his visit:
"Your Majesty, I am here to settle a cause and effect, and also to share your worries."

Ling Xuanyu felt a little guilty for some reason, but he still asked:
"Master, can you explain it in detail?"

"Your Majesty, don't worry. I want to see this Concubine Tao first. Is that possible?"

"Of course, I will summon Concubine Tao here right away."

After Ling Xuanyu finished speaking, he winked at the eunuch beside him. Because of the rumors that were rampant recently, in order to protect Concubine Tao, he basically put her under house arrest. Without his order, Concubine Tao could not leave the Lianyan Pavilion, and outsiders could not enter.

After receiving the order, the chief eunuch personally brought Concubine Tao to Master Puxian.

Master Puxian looked at the peach branch in front of him and chanted the Buddha's name:

"Amitabha! I finally met the female donor."

Although Taozhi did not know Master Puxian, she still bowed politely and said:

"My daughter Taozhi greets the master."

Master Puxian stroked his white beard that hung down to his chest and said:
"The female donor is a predestined person of Huguo Temple. This time I came here to resolve the donor's disaster, which can also be regarded as settling a cause and effect."

Taozhi didn't understand what connection she had with the Huguo Temple. She stared at Master Puxian with her watery peach blossom eyes, waiting for his explanation.

Puxian said nothing, but handed a scroll to Taozhi. When Taozhi saw the two people in the painting, she was surprised, because the woman in the painting was almost identical to her.
