After rebirth, the concubine counterattacked and became a royal concubine

Chapter 5 The more beautiful a man is, the more poisonous he is

Bai Zhaoyi was secretly vigilant and was not fooled by the man's appearance or the man's rescue. As the saying goes,

The more beautiful a man is, the more poisonous he is. You can’t see through a man’s heart!

Bai Zhaoyi walked out of the carriage, and three steps away from Jiangque, he cleared his throat and gave a gentle salute, saying politely and distantly: "Thank you, Master, for rescuing me today."

Jiang Que raised his eyebrows and pretended not to hear the polite and distant meaning in Bai Zhaoyi's words. He took a step forward and bent slightly to look directly into Bai Zhaoyi's eyes.

"How do I express my gratitude? You can't just thank me verbally and deceive me, right?"

Bai Zhaoyi was slightly stunned, obviously not expecting Jiang Que to ask such a question.

really...

Bai Zhaoyi gathered his thoughts and pursed his lips slightly, showing a clear smile. He nodded towards Jiang Que and said, "Of course I won't, sir. Wait a moment."

The smile in Jiang Que's eyes deepened and the corners of his mouth curved upward, thinking that Bai Zhaozhao was quite good.

Then Bai Zhaoyi took out a bag of silver from Sandalwood's arms and placed it in Jiang Que's palm. Jiang Que looked at the bag with a smile on his face, and for a moment he didn't understand what Bai Zhaoyi meant.

Did she think she was visiting a flower house?

Are you going to pay me back when you're done?

Does Jiang Que look so poor?

Chong Yu, who was behind Jiang Que, couldn't hold it back after all, and burst into laughter. This third girl from the prime minister's house was really interesting. It was the first time someone spent money on her young master.

Jiang Que turned back and glared at this unreliable follower, gritted his teeth and looked at the woman standing in front of him.

Bai Zhaoyi is dressed in Tsing Yi, her mouth is curved, and her face is even more charming in the sun. It can be imagined that when she gets hairpins, her appearance will be even more outstanding.

"I went out in a hurry today. I only brought so much, so please don't be dissatisfied."

Jiang Que was also distracted by her smile, but only for a moment, he came back to his senses and looked at the woman in front of him who spent money to buy him.

"Bai Zhaoyi, you are very good."

Just as annoying as when I was a kid!After saying that, he turned around to leave.

"Young Master's praise"

Suddenly, Bai Zhaoyi's voice came from behind again, and Jiang Que staggered when he heard it.

Looking back, I found that Bai Zhaoyi had safely sat in the carriage. Without a driver, Zhu Li could only drive the carriage slowly towards Jing'an Temple.

The person had already walked away, but Jiang Que was still standing there blankly. Chong Yu held back his smile and pretended to be nonchalant and softly called the prince. Jiang Que kicked Chong Yu on the butt without mercy. Chong Yu was kicked. He had to jump three feet high and howl loudly.

Jiang Que saw that the carriage had disappeared, looked at the three corpses at his feet and ordered the ghost to throw the three people down the cliff next to them and destroy the corpses.

He stood there and thought about what was about to happen, and suddenly felt that Bai Zhaoyi must have been having a hard time at home these past few years.

……

"Miss, who is that person? How do you know the lady's name?" Tanxiang sorted out the things scattered in the car, and then looked at Bai Zhaoyi who was leaning on the couch with his eyes closed to rest.

Bai Zhaoyi's expression moved slightly, he opened his eyes and said for a moment, "Prince Rong An."

The ending of Crown Prince Rong An in his previous life was not good. Bai Zhaoyi sighed slightly when he thought of the high-spirited young man just now.

"Prince Rong An?" Tan Xiang's voice was slightly surprised, and his face was full of surprise. When Bai Zhaoyi closed his eyes again, he could only calm down.

……

"Miss, we have arrived at Jing'an Temple."

The carriage slowly stopped, and Zhuli's voice came from outside.

Bai Zhaoyi opened his eyes and slowly got out of the car, looking towards Jing'an Temple.

The mountains and fields are fresh and leisurely, the main entrance of the ancient temple is filled with incense, and the distant sound of bells and chanting can be heard.

"Amitabha, are you the lady from the Bai family in Beijing who came to the temple to pray for blessings?" A young monk clasped his hands and stepped forward to ask.

"Exactly, please ask the little master to lead the way."

Bai Zhaoyi lowered his head slightly in greeting and looked gentle, dignified and steady.

The young monk walked in front and gave Bai Zhaoyi a brief introduction to the temple, and finally stopped in a small courtyard behind the Zen room. This courtyard was specially reserved for noble ladies to stay for a short period of time.

"Every benefactor, please take a short rest today. Donors need to go to the main hall to chant sutras with us at Yin time every day. There are fast meals in the temple. If there is nothing else, the monk will go and be busy first."

After saying that, he clasped his hands together and bent down again.

Bai Zhaoyi and the maid hurriedly responded with a salute to show that they knew.

Pushing open the door, the room was decorated with simple furnishings, including sandalwood and bamboo leaves. Bai Zhaoyi sat at the table and tapped his fingers on the table, thinking about the future.

"Miss, I went to get some vegetarian food and came back. Miss, please use it." Zhuli took the food and gently placed it on the table.

The vegetarian meal at Jing'an Temple is really light, only tofu and vegetables. How could the young lady get used to eating this? Zhuli was even more dissatisfied with Mrs. Bai.

Bai Zhaoyi didn't care. He had eaten everything in the dungeon in his previous life just to stay alive. What's more, the vegetarian food in Jing'an Temple was just a little lighter and not meaty, but the taste was still okay.

After finishing the meal, Bai Zhaoyi took Zhuli to the main hall to burn incense, but after searching for a long time, she couldn't find where the main hall was, so she had to casually enter a side hall. She didn't believe this anyway, and it was the same with everyone.

If there really is a god in the world, why did she suffer so much in her previous life?

Bai Zhaoyi held three sticks of incense and bowed casually, completing his "task" of praying for his family.

Just as he was about to get up and leave, he suddenly saw a bucket of fortune-telling sticks next to him. Bai Zhaoyi walked over to the bucket of fortune-telling sticks and shook it casually, but two bamboo sticks fell out of the bucket.

Zhu Li picked up the bamboo sticks on the ground and turned them over. They were a blank stick and a lower stick. Zhu Li scratched his head in confusion and looked at Bai Zhaoyi who was standing aside.

"Miss, what does this mean? Why are you signing one blank and the other bottom?"

Bai Zhaoyi frowned and was wondering why he wanted to cast the lot. After a moment of silence, he said casually: "It's just a bluff, Zhuli, put it back and let's go."

Zhu Li responded in a low voice and then walked briskly behind Bai Zhaoyi.

In a Zen room to the west, a monk who was meditating slowly opened his eyes. The fragrance of Buddha was all around him. He twisted his fingers a few times. After a while of silence, he sighed softly, his voice as light as the breeze:

"The past life was miserable, but in this life there will be people to help you."

The sky was getting slightly dark, and Bai Zhaoyi took Zhuli for a walk along the road, admiring the scenery of the temple.

“Come here—the eldest princess was assassinated and there’s a fire in the courtyard!”

An urgent cry made Bai Zhaoyi stop, and something suddenly flashed in his mind. At this time in the past life, there was also news that the eldest princess had been assassinated. The guards were entangled by the assassin and could not escape. The eldest princess was burned by fire and never appeared in front of others again. .

"Zhuli, go and inform the temple that the courtyard where the eldest princess lives is on fire and ask them to come and put out the fire quickly."

Bai Zhaoyi ordered urgently, and the man was already running forward.

"Yes, miss, hide here, be careful and wait for the slave to come back." Zhu Li knew the seriousness of the matter and ran away quickly.

Bai Zhaoyi came to the back of the courtyard and looked at the fire in the room. Hearing the shouts in the room, he gritted his teeth, soaked his whole body with water and rushed into the room.

She could only take a gamble, because now she had nothing but the control of the prime minister's house.

Success, thanks to the blessing of the eldest princess.

Failure would not be worse than marrying into the Third Prince's Mansion.

"Ahem, princess, ahem, where are you?"

Bai Zhaoyi was unable to open his eyes due to the smoke, and kept crying. He was choking and coughing. He tried hard to search, and finally saw the eldest princess and her maid in a corner.

Bai Zhaoyi stepped forward to check and found that the eldest princess was just knocked down by the smoke and was not seriously injured. He was slightly relieved and put his soaked coat on the eldest princess.

The eldest princess struggled to raise her head to look at the young and unfamiliar girl in front of her, and then she fainted from exhaustion and fell into the arms of the maid.

"Princess——" Bai Zhaoyi breathed a sigh of relief and found that she was just unconscious.

The eldest princess has been in poor health since she was a child, which was caused by the abortion. She was carefully raised in the palace for many years. Later, the prince-in-law died unexpectedly. The eldest princess was so sad that she gave birth prematurely, and the child she gave birth to did not survive.

Since then, the eldest princess's health has become worse and worse, and she often comes to the temple to pray for her child who is less than eight months old.

Bai Zhaoyi poured tea on the bedding and draped it on several people. He hurriedly picked up the eldest princess and ran out.

The Zen house in the temple was not very strong. The shelf on the side was broken by the fire and hit Bai Zhaoyi's back. Bai Zhaoyi had to dodge and was hit alive.

Then his vision went dark, he spat out a mouthful of blood, staggered slightly, and carried the eldest princess out of the room.

When I heard someone calling the eldest princess and her name, I felt slightly relieved and fainted next to the eldest princess.
