396 Good Reason (1)

Shen Yijia looked up at the three people who had suddenly appeared. She had seen two of them before.

She didn’t recognize the older man.

Seeing that they were all staring at her fish, she tilted her head. She understood.

“I roasted a little too much. If you want to eat it, take it yourself. However, those that haven’t been roasted yet won’t do. I want to bring them home for my husband,” Shen Yijia said generously as she pointed at the fish still on the fire.

Although she discovered these fishes first, she didn’t raise them.

Anyone who saw it would get a share. It was not impossible for the three of them to share it with her, but she had to get a bigger portion.

The abbot was so angry that he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

“Listen, listen. Is this human language?” he thought.

It was fine if she killed the fish in the pond at Hidden Spirit Temple, but she actually invited him, a monk, to eat fis.h.!.+

What was worse was that she wanted to pack some extra after eating!

She had never seen such an arrogant person in his life. The last person who dared to treat him to meat was…

The abbot wanted to see where this brat came from, but the more he looked at her, the more familiar she looked.

He suddenly turned to look at Xuanyuan Ce. At first glance, the two of them looked identical, but on closer inspection, they did not look alike.

The girl in front of him had a confused expression, while the one beside her had an annoying expression.

Compared to the face in his memory, he realized that this girl was actually 50% similar to his benefactor!

Actually, after not seeing her for more than ten years, he had almost forgotten what his benefactor looked like. However, when he saw this girl, her blurry face suddenly became clear.

His gaze paused between Shen Yijia’s eyebrows. He shook his head and muttered, “No, it’s not her.”

The baby girl was born with a birthmark between her eyebrows. He would not remember wrongly.

Seeing that the abbot was so angry, Xuanyuan Ce thought to himself, “As expected, I’ll return the favor.”

Just now, Xuanyuan Ce was angry at the abbot, but now, a girl had jumped out to anger the abbot instead.

Hearing this whisper, Xuanyuan Ce’s eyes darkened. He knew that the abbot had mistaken this person for Ji Luo at first glance.

Over the past few days, he had asked Chu Feng to investigate. The man who was with this girl at the docks that day was Young Master Shenzhi, who was famous in Xunyang City. At the same time, he was Song Jingchen, who had become famous since he was young.

If he was not wrong, this girl was the person Xuanyuan Ziming had mentioned in his letter. She looked very similar to the person in the portrait.

He had drawn that painting based on his memory, and that brat had accidentally seen it.

Although no one dared to mention what had happened back then, as a prince, it was naturally not difficult for Xuanyuan Ziming to find out something.

He almost made a mistake at first glance. That brat had only taken a glance at the portrait, so it was normal for him to see wrongly.

However, this was not a reason for him to deceive him into returning to Phoenix City. If not for the fact that he had gained something from Hidden Spirit Temple, he would definitely have taught him a lesson when he returned.

Xuanyuan Ziming, who was following the envoy to the capital of Great Xia, inexplicably s.h.i.+vered.

Shen Yijia looked at the changing expressions of the two people in front of her and glanced at the sharp tip of the roof of the temple behind them.

Looking at the bald old monk who was glaring at her, she suddenly sobered up.

She and Furball had jumped from the forest to this place. The first thing she saw was the fish in the pond.

Then, she couldn’t look away. She didn’t realize that Furball had already brought her near the temple.

She was looking at the owner of these fishes.

Shen Yijia’s eyes widened. Seeing that the two of them were still in a daze, she quietly put down the grilled fish in her hand and turned to grab the dead fish skewered at the side. She gestured to Furball.

She turned around bit by bit and was about to slip away with Furball.

The old abbot’s faint voice came from behind. “Amitabha. The Buddhist Sect is a peaceful place. It’s fine if you kill in the Buddhist Sect, but you even killed the fish released by the other devotees.”

“You’ve committed two major taboos of our temple. If you don’t give me an explanation, I’m afraid I won’t be able to let you leave the Hidden Spirit Temple today.”

Shen Yijia’s body stiffened. She wanted to pretend not to hear him, but she heard the old abbot say, “Even if you walk down the mountain today, I have to report it to His Majesty to uphold justice.”

The abbot was an eminent monk. Every year, he would be invited to the palace to chant scriptures and pray.

Even Emperor Chong’an treated him with respect.

Because of the royal family, no one had dared to be impudent in the Hidden Spirit Temple all these years.

Was Shen Yijia afraid of Emperor Chong’an? She was naturally not afraid, but she thought of Song Jingchen, who had entered the palace this morning.
