The layout of Clear Void Monastery was co was sy as the hall for the Three Pure Ones and thus enshrining their statues Beyond that, there were four more temple halls, the lecture platform, dru, buts its verdant greenery was superb, its winding pathways lead to secluded places, and it installed a section of a peaceful land within the secular world

Du Leng slowly pushed Fu Shen down the not-too-level slab pathway, exactly like two Buddhist worshi+pers that could not be any on Guard had already searched this courtyard fro out either,about stuff by means of this area He actually had a suspicion in his htly weighed down his heart non-stop

The day after his and Yan Xiaohan's ht him a small box of bloodied Eastern Pearls

Fu Shen had told him to take theotten about this occurrence Any details regarding the Zhe clan were notwatch on hi like they were behaving but secretly sharpening their claws and teeth, hibernating as they laid in wait for the chance to deal a fatal blow

Fu Shen's unhitching as the Commander of the Northern Yan Army and return to the capital for recuperation had undoubtedly given them hope, so et the guts to step forward and check things out However, so much time had passed and yet they hadn't made a move; maybe they still suspected that this was the next round of the Great Zhou's ether

The Northern Yan Iron Cavalry was by nothat made Fu Shen uneasy was that he had no idea how many scouts the Zhe clan had in the capital Were any of their actions behind the Golden Crow Guard's evity Feast's assassination? Was that box of Eastern Pearls merely a simple provocation, or were the objects meant as some sort of hint?

The Eastern Pearl was an extremely precious type of treasure to the Zhe Apart from paid tribute to the Great Zhou, within their clan, only their leader's wife and mother – in Central Plains terer – were qualified to wear them As a result, many of the Zhe clansmen used the Eastern Pearl as a reference to the Empress, and the Eevity Feast Was that just a coincidence?

If general associations were being made, the Gold Pill and Eastern Pearl were similar in shape, which was also suspicious Further that this event would cause the greatest ae to the Eastern Palace?

In thehis mind run wild like this the whole journey, the wheelchair see him back from his contemplation He lifted his head for a look ”Where is this?” he asked skeptically

”I don't know,” Du Leng replied abashedly, ”I seeotten lost…”

”You are truly beyondwithout a care ”Just go wherever With how big the courtyard is, you could get out of it with your eyes closed Isn't there a s was so asha Fu Shen over to the place without a word leaving hi Fu Shen's lips hooked up, full of interest ”A scripture library? It's so far reh h Fu Shen's h, he could deduce that they were likely now in some unknown corner of the Clear Void Monastery This library was in a re the priests lived in and further covered up behind a wide expanse of forest It looked to be deserted, and certainly not easy to find — would anyone really coo inside for a look”

Du Leng moved Fu Shen's wheelchair up the steps with extreet in, the door's locked”

Fu Shen glanced at hirasping a knife taken from who-knohere, and broke open the copper lock with two or three tries With a push of a hand, the tooden doors were opened wide, the scent of old paper : ”……”

Fu Shen's hand had been too fast, to the extent that Du Leng hadn't gotten a good look of his , heavy brass lock was like a toy in his pal was… he was an inpatient, as he just casually wielding a knife?!

There was dust all over the inside of the library Du Leng once again huffed and puffed as he moved the wheelchair over the doorsill The hull of a doctor really wasn't like those of martial laborers, who could have easily lifted the Marquis up to the second floor

”Enough, enough Go shut the door” Fu Shen couldn't take it any hio on by myself”

The state of his injuries was actually extraordinarily subtle His knee caps were coed, but it wasn't so bad that he couldn't stand up So long as he recovered well, there was a hope he could coenuinely wouldn't be able to walk as normal for this brief duration, and even if his wounds healed, there was no way he'd be able to stay on the front lines for the long term when he was healthy

This aard situation had been made aard by the Emperor's spy in the army, as news of Fu Shen's injury wasn't able to stay in the dark, so the Emperor had immediately ordered for him to conized earlier that the Emperor had wariness towards him, but he hadn't expected him to be in such a rush It was a further impossibility for him to inform the Eht not have lived a month in the capital

He could onlyup his condition a bit more seriously so he could survive before all else The handicapped appearance was all made up for the Emperor to see Fu Shen's bones had, in fact, al for a bit wasn't an issue He just had to put on a show in front of people and not let anything slip to give it away

Du Leng are of his true circuive him a realistic pseudo-lameness, he had concocted sos weaken and lose feeling after being taken The result was so outstanding, they had even duped Shen Yi'ce

Du Leng turned back to cover the door, warning him with unease ”Slon, you haven't walked s hurt?”
