Chapter 218
Only then did she understand why when he heard that she was coming to the Buddhist temple, he turned to look at her.

It turned out that he had this taboo in his heart.

She didn't intend to come here to offer incense.Then he stood up, tugged at the corner of his clothes and said, "There is a street behind the temple that sells a lot of food. Let's go."

My mind was on him, and I began to notice many of his inadvertent little habits.

For example, he doesn't go to Buddhist temples, he doesn't like to turn his head when he walks, and besides boiled mutton, he also enjoys folk foods like pork belly in sauce.

If he didn't enter the Buddhist hall, then she simply bypassed the Buddhist hall and led him down a secluded path.

She knows the way.

He said, "Do you come here often?"

Then she slowed down and stopped on the steps behind the temple: "I've been here a few times."

Doesn't she just come here often?After all, during those 16 years, except for her absence from the capital and her illness, she would come every first and fifteenth day of the lunar new year.

After more than ten years of accumulation, is it just familiarity?

But girls from the Shen family obviously don't come here often, even if they want to offer incense, they usually go to other temples.

Xiao Huai didn't care.Anyway, he rarely came.

They then went to the back of the temple.

Pilgrims passing by in twos and threes, many of them recognized him, and some would stand far away and give him a bow.But most of them were intimidated, stood respectfully at a distance, and hurried away when he looked away.

But he was so outstanding that many young girls, holding small handkerchiefs in their hands, looked over with little pink stars in their eyes.

Shen Xi couldn't help winking at him: "Your Majesty is so favored."

Xiao Huai's face was stern, he held her and walked down with his head held high: "Not as popular as you." If he hadn't acted quickly, the matchmaker would have almost broken through the door.

Shen Xi smiled without saying a word, obediently being led down the stone steps by him.

But more and more people came to recognize him, and the plainclothes guards who had been trailing from afar speeded up to catch up, and when he reached the steps, he had to stop and chat with people he knew well.

Shen Xi stood by the side and waited for a while, then went down the stone steps first, and walked towards the small alley behind the temple.

Going down the stone steps, not far away is the crowded bazaar, so the female relatives prefer to go here to enter the temple, and turn right, and this is the small alley where she died that year.

At this point, her steps seemed to be bound by a rope and led her to move forward.

A bright red blood stain appeared in front of her eyes, and the sky in front of her eyes suddenly turned into the sky of dawn in the past.

She was half lying under the corner of the wall, clutching her chest. Both her chest and abdomen had been stabbed, her limbs were twitching, and the blood in her body was gurgling out.

And ten steps away stood Wen Chan in fine silver fox fur, and the lantern hanging from the overturned carriage illuminated her clearly in her eyes!

"Miss Zhang?" She called her sarcastically.

"My family background is not as good as yours, and my background is not as good as yours. I have been bullied by my stepmother since I was a child, and I don't even have decent clothes.

"If my father hadn't insisted that all the children in the family should study, I'm afraid I wouldn't even know what the Four Books and Five Classics are.

"And you don't have to do anything, you have both parents, the stars hold the moon, and you will have a lot of good days waiting for you when you are born.

"If I don't plan for myself, then I will be compared to you all my life.

"How can I be compared to you who are like a fool? What else can you do better than me besides good luck?
"Your existence is superfluous, and even more of an obstacle to me! If I don't kill you, do I still leave you to disgust me?"

"It's not easy for me to live in such a humble way, but your father, in order to gain fame and show his hypocrisy, even took me into the mansion to see with his own eyes how you live a high life!

"I'm smarter than you, studious and filial than you, but he praises me secretly but still favors you!

"Are you worthy of marrying Xu Jing?! You don't deserve anything!

"Even if you are married to a humble family, you don't deserve such a rich dowry! If I don't kill you, why don't I keep you to see how you can live your life?!
"Xu Jing is mine, and your dowry is also mine! Everything you own should be mine!

"Don't worry, when you die, they will raise me as you, and I will let them marry a good man for me, and then give me the dowry that I gave you!

"From now on, I will be another daughter of Elder Zhang Ge!
"Live in your yard, use your maid to leave the pavilion through the gate of your Zhang family!..."

The voice buzzed in my ear, one sentence after another.

But the turbulence brought about is not as good as it used to be.

The vegetation in front of me is slightly withered, but the outlines of the past are still there.

She has come to this old place without knowing it.

She raised her hand to caress the wall. After 50 years, the foot of the wall became more mottled, and the surrounding area has changed slightly, but the surrounding wall of the opposite house has not changed.

She restrained her mind and looked around with a deep breath.

Perhaps even after passing through here countless times, she may not be able to remember every plant and tree here, but generally she still has an impression.

And it was enough for her to have this general impression!
Zhang Ying died under the wall of the alley, behind which is the Xiangguo Temple.

And her left is the steps leading to the temple, and her right is the alley leading to Zhang's mansion.

And in front of this alley on the right, there is another road leading to the temple, which is the market where she and Xiao Huai will go.

The assassin who took Wen Chan's silver ticket that day withdrew from that direction.

And there was no one on this side of the alley—no living or awake people, and there were no residential houses within thirty feet.

The only place where people can hide is the high wall behind her——

Judging from the previous speculation, it is certain that Wen Chan has helpers besides those assassins.

And this helper didn't show up until Zhang Ying's death, either because of a guilty conscience, or because they still had a conspiracy.

The reason for the guilty conscience is naturally that she is worried about being spotted by her!A person who is still worried about showing his feet in front of a dying person must be afraid of the power of the Zhang family.

Han Ruoju...

Her eyes gradually became darker.

All doubts seem to be able to get around this person, could it be him?
But even if Han Ruoju is the commander of the Wucheng Bingmasi, he has a certain amount of power, but how can this power be so powerful that he can hide in the courtyard wall of the National Temple?

There are also guards in Xiangguo Temple.

Furthermore, the movement in the temple was not disturbed from the beginning to the end of the movement that morning, which also seems suspicious...

"Shen Xi? Why are you here?"

Suddenly, another female voice full of hostility came from the ear.

She frowned slightly, then turned around suddenly, time intersected, and the figures in front of her eyes also intersected.

It was not Wen Chan, but her granddaughter Han Min, who was looking at her with a gold hairpin in her head with hostility!

The third miss of the Han family who once tried to dig a hole for her in front of their family in the Han family.

"Didn't you all give marriage to Xiao Shizi? Why, it's so shabby to be the future Shizi concubine? You don't even have a follower?"

Twelve or thirteen-year-old girls already speak like knives.
