Chapter 398 Coincidence
Between the fire and light stones, Cheng Weiyin's right fingertips in the sleeve flicked quickly, drew a peace charm in the air, and almost at the same time as the scream fell, he patted that nun's shoulder with one hand.

Because the incident happened suddenly, when everyone heard the sound and looked over, Cheng Wei's right hand was resting on Nanny's shoulder, but it was hard to tell which one was first and which one was behind.

Cheng Wei withdrew his hand, took a step forward to cover most of the nanny's figure without a trace, and said calmly, "I'm sorry, I just saw a bug land on the nanny's shoulder, and I took a picture of it in a moment of impatience. , and disturbed the Empress Dowager, the Imperial Concubine and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

She said so, but her heart was hanging.

That Ann talisman is just a volley painting, the effect will be greatly reduced, and that "Nurse" may fall ill at any time.

The so-called enemy of an enemy is a friend. Cheng Wei deeply hated the prince's ruthlessness, which made her eldest sister Cheng Ya feel neglected since she entered the palace. She even suspected that Cheng Ya's death was related to the prince, so she naturally subconsciously wanted to protect the Queen Mother's side.

What's more, she already felt some sympathy for this crazy queen who lived in Guanju Palace.

Fortunately, the queen mother said at this time: "It turned out that Taoist Xuanwei was kind enough to help, but it surprised Aijia. Well, you are all old people who have been with me for many years, so don't be surprised when things happen. .Going out early today, Ai’s family has a headache, so hurry back to the palace.”

Concubine Hua said: "The Queen Mother, go slowly."

As she said so, she still couldn't help but look at that nanny, after all, it was a bit strange for people around the Queen Mother to make a fuss at will.

Cheng Wei raised his foot and walked over, bowed his hands to Concubine Hua and saluted: "My Lady, Master doesn't like to see outsiders, so let me lead you and His Highness the Crown Prince there."

Before Hua Guifei could respond, Cheng Wei glanced at Suchen Daoist, and said in a very dignified tone, "Nephew Suchen, please take the Queen Mother out."

Daoist Suchen used to have a lot of face in front of Concubine Hua and others, but at this moment, being called a "nephew" by a talented little girl is like being slapped twice in the eyes of everyone, and you can even hear it. Those two crisp sounds.

No matter how seniority oppresses others, no matter how unhappy she feels, she can only bear it and say honestly: "Yes, uncle."

Daoist Suchen saluted Concubine Hua and the Crown Prince, and walked towards the Empress Dowager.

Concubine Hua Gui and the Crown Prince turned their attention to Cheng Wei at the same time, and their expressions at that moment were quite complicated.

Cheng Wei was accepted as a disciple by the national teacher. Although his status and status have been greatly improved, but after all, age and qualifications are here, and he has never seen the grand ceremony on the day of apprenticeship with his own eyes. Daoist Suchen, who was treated with great courtesy every day, respected him very much, and he was quite shocked.

Concubine Hua and the prince exchanged a glance.

It seems that today is the right time.

And that Suchen Daoist was in a worse mood.

People who practice Taoism enter the world to walk, relying on a reputation.

Did this damn girl know this well and purposely suppress her in front of the imperial concubine and others?
Just imagine, when a person you usually respect suddenly shows respect to another person, will you subconsciously respect this person less and be more careless in the future?
Cheng Wei didn't care what Daoist Priest Su Chen felt, and said to Concubine Hua: "Young Concubine, please."

After Concubine Hua and the Crown Prince met the real person Qi Ling, Cheng Wei was called in by the real person Qi Ling.

"Master." Cheng Wei sat on his knees, actually very curious in his heart, but saw the indifferent and peaceful appearance of Master Qi Ling, who didn't seem to be able to inquire about gossip, so he shut his mouth wisely.

Unexpectedly, Master Qi Ling took the initiative to say: "Xuan Wei, do you know what's the matter with the imperial concubine and the crown prince coming here?"

Cheng Yao shook her head: "I don't know."

Master Qi Ling smiled lightly.

His smile was light and shallow, but in an instant, his overly cold eyebrows and eyes were warmed up, and his whole person had a kind of dazzling light that people couldn't take their eyes off.

Cheng Wei thought to himself, no wonder Master seldom smiles in front of outsiders, this smile, against the background of the silver hair, is simply enchanting.

"The imperial concubine came here to ask, as a teacher, if she can betroth her disciple to the crown prince."

"Uh, so that's how it is." After Cheng Wei finished speaking, his face changed, "Master, the disciple that the noble concubine proposed to marry the prince, shouldn't be me?"

Master Qi Ling was amused by the little apprentice: "If it wasn't for you, could it be your senior brother Beiming?"

Cheng Wei was speechless, and after a while he said, "Master must have not agreed?"

Master Qi Ling took a deep look at Cheng Wei, and said in a meaningful tone, "I didn't agree, nor refused."

This answer was far beyond Cheng Wei's expectations.

"Master, what does it mean that you didn't refuse?"

Master Qi Ling asked back: "What is Xuan Wei's plan?"

"I will never agree to marry the prince!" Cheng Wei said loudly without hesitation.

In her opinion, there are some things that can be muddled along, while some things must be refused without hesitation.

"You don't want to marry the prince?" Master Qi Ling stretched out his voice, looking at Cheng Wei with complicated eyes.

"I don't want to!" Cheng Wei shook his head like a rattle, and simply reached out to hug Daoist Qi Ling's arm, and said coquettishly, "Master, please return it to me quickly, so that Concubine Hua Gui and the prince will give up their hearts!"

Hearing the news that the palace was going to choose a concubine for the prince, Cheng Wei was actually not worried all the time, what he was sure of was the attitude of Daoist Qi Ling.

With the status of a national teacher, it is nothing to reject the royal family, let alone a person who is reluctant to follow his disciples.

But now, Cheng Wei was really surprised.

Although the master didn't say it clearly, but judging from his attitude, he was quite happy to see her marrying the prince, which is simply unbelievable.

And Master Qi Ling's answer was beyond Cheng Wei's expectation: "Xuan Wei, it's inconvenient for me to interfere with your marriage."

Cheng Wei was startled, and asked after a long time: "Master, what do you mean—"

Master Qi Ling didn't answer any more, he waved his hands and said, "Xuan Wei, you can go out now."

Cheng Wei bowed and exited, walking on the path full of ginkgo trees, feeling restless.

Did the master mean that he wouldn't stand up and push this matter away for her?

Don't agree, don't refuse--

Does that mean that Concubine Hua Gui also cannot use strong methods to force her?
Thinking of this, Cheng Wei's heart gradually stabilized.

That being the case, as long as she is firm, the royal family will still be helpless.

Cheng Wei was a little relieved, but the atmosphere in the Empress Dowager's bedroom was extremely gloomy.

"Have you sent the queen back properly?"

"Yes."

The Empress Dowager tapped unconsciously with her hand on the armrest: "Tell me, how could it be so coincidental that the noble concubine also went to Xuanqing Temple to offer incense? Could it be that she got the news from?"

The mother comforted her and said, "Empress Dowager, you have been extra cautious in taking the empress out of the palace. It is impossible for the imperial concubine to notice it. This matter may really be a coincidence."

The queen mother narrowed her eyes: "Then, the queen almost fell ill on the way, and the actions of that Xuanwei Daoist are also coincidences?"
