Quick Wear: Oh no, the lady is running away with the ball again

Chapter 206 The Living Abandoned Empress of the Cold Palace X The Invading Unruly Buddhist Son 40

No, that's not possible. If Queen Yun really passed away at this moment, it would be a huge blow to the Yun family. She hasn't taken the throne yet, and neither has Qi Heyao.

"System, do you have any useful cheats here?"

"Host, do you want something that can restore the Queen's health and keep her stable for a while?"

"…yes"

As time passed, Qi Heyao saw that Yun Qian seemed to be immersed in thought. Although he was confused, he did not say much or disturb her.

Qi Heyao actually had mixed feelings about Queen Yun's current situation. On the one hand, he needed her help, but on the other...if something went wrong with her now, while it would be like cutting off one of his arms, it would also, to some extent, allow him to take control of the situation sooner.

After all... with his current prestige and means in the court, he is undoubtedly the next person in power. As for his father... Qi Heyao sneered in his heart. It would be easy to make the man who abandoned himself for a woman abdicate.

"Qianqian, you don't have to worry too much. Mother is still young and has always been strong. She will be fine."

"Your Highness, my aunt is ill, and as her niece, I can't offer any assistance. I would like to go to the West Hill Pond to pray for her. I'm afraid you are always busy and may not have time to attend to her, but I beg you to grant my request."

Yun Qian raised her lips and said this. Qi Heyao suddenly heard it and frowned in confusion. Why is this? Could it be that Qian Qian is still angry and doesn't want to marry him?

After all... Queen Yun had written in a letter that she would choose an auspicious date for their wedding as soon as he returned. But now...

Yun Qian bent down and squatted, she already had a plan in mind. There was Buddhist music by the West Mountain Pond, and no one would doubt that she was going there to get a holy object.

Yun Hou possessed a string of Dzi beads, a household name in the Daqi family. It was promised to her in childhood. A deceased monk had once told the elders of the Yun family that Yun Hou had a connection with Buddhism and that if she were sent to a Buddhist temple for study, her family would be blessed with prosperity.

But at that time, the Yun family was reluctant to send Queen Yun to such a place to suffer the hardship of seclusion. In addition, the Yun family had already declined, and no one would think that simply sending a child there could solve the family's failure in the political arena.

So the matter was left unresolved. No one in the Yun family would have thought of relying on the girls in their family for worship in the beginning, or in other words, no man would believe that the family could be restored just by giving away a daughter.

No one had expected that Queen Yun would rely on herself to make the Yun family the most trusted family by the imperial power.

This Dzi bead was a donation from the Yun family to Queen Yun, to offset the debt she owed for not attending the Buddhist temple. Over the years, no news had been heard about it, and no one had much of a memory of it.

The reason why the Queen of Clouds suddenly couldn't bear it was also related to this. The Dzi Bead was a substitute for the Queen of Clouds. It was bound by a blood covenant and had been worshipped before the Buddha for many years, so it already had spirituality.

One is that someone had tampered with the Dzi beads, which is beyond doubt; the other is that Queen Yun herself was traumatized and her heart was dead.

It would be difficult to treat it through ordinary methods... This was also the reason she had finally found out the truth and obtained the method after she had strongly requested the system to investigate, spending another 200 points. It was not easy... Yun Qian had made up her mind. Even if Qi Heyao did not agree, she would still have a way to escape.

She is not a girl who is pampered in the boudoir and waiting to get married. She has her own things to do.

The current emperor will be given the temple name of Shenzong after his death. Although he is not dead yet, Yun Qian already knows that such a temple name, although seemingly commendatory, is actually derogatory.

But in fact, the emperor before was not stupid. He was a young man who worked hard to govern the country. Later... Yun Qian didn't know what happened in the middle that made the current emperor, later Emperor Shenzong, become like this.

But in short, the stall that Queen Yun initially took over was a seemingly powerful but actually corrupt Da Qi.

Yun Qian's heart was filled with mixed emotions. She stood outside the palace, clutching the small bottle in her sleeve and taking a deep breath. Right now, Queen Yun's life hung in the balance, and she couldn't just sit back and watch.

Although her actions might not necessarily change the situation, she could not stand by and watch Queen Yun suddenly fall and the Yun family fall.

Qi Heyao didn't agree to her request immediately, but just said he would ask the imperial physician about his current condition first... Yun Qian knew that he was weighing...

Yun Qian looked into the hall and through the heavy curtains, she could vaguely see Qi Heyao with his back to her.

He was currently conversing in low voices with the imperial physicians, his expression grim. Qi Heyao, this seemingly gentle man, how many secrets did he harbor? She didn't know, and she didn't want to know too much. To her, this was just a temporary partnership.

"System, where exactly is the Dzi Bead now?" Yun Qian asked quickly in her mind. She needed precise information to formulate an action plan.

[Host, the Dzi Bead is indeed in the Sutra Library of the Xishan Pond Buddhist Temple, but it has been sealed for many years and requires special methods to retrieve.] The system's voice was weak, revealing a sense of difficulty.

"Special method?" Yun Qian raised an eyebrow. "Please explain it clearly. Don't keep me in suspense."

The details can only be known after seeing the Dzi beads at the Xishan Pond.

Yun Qian couldn't help but sigh inwardly when he heard this. Sure enough, things wouldn't be that simple.

She was not sure where Yunhou's blood covenant Dzi beads were hidden now, and although her own identity was barely qualified, the steps and rules involved in the offering ceremony could lead to greater trouble if there was any mistake.

She had to plan carefully and not make any mistakes.

"Now that our mother's condition is uncertain, Qianqian, are you really going to leave the capital to pray for blessings?"

Yun Qian's expression remained calm, and she nodded slightly. "Your Highness, praying before the Buddha is a sincere act. I truly cannot bear to see my aunt suffer. If I can be of any help, I will do my best."

Qi Heyao narrowed his eyes and looked at her face for a moment. He still seemed a little unconvinced and said nothing.

"Your Highness, I'm not here. Please take good care of our mother." Yun Qian raised her watery eyes and looked at Qi Heyao with reluctance.

When the man saw her eyes, the words "Of course" that he wanted to say flew away and he could not say it anymore.

"I would be worried. If I were free, I would naturally go with you, but now the court needs me right now. Qianqian, I..."

Qi Heyao was about to reach out and take a step forward before he finished speaking, but Yun Qian immediately bowed down and said, "It is Yun Qian's fortune to have such love and care from His Highness.
