Chapter 124: How Could He Be So Cold!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The child struggled and wanted to get onto the ground. She took the initiative to take on the responsibility of helping the empress.
However, Ye Siming hugged her tightly and she couldn’t move at all.
Ye Siming frowned and said coldly, “Save the effort. There are hidden guards and they can walk much more steadily than you. Otherwise, what would happen if you fall again and make the empress feel even more anxious?”
Gu Nuo’er puffed up her cheeks. Although she was unconvinced, she had to admit that Ye Siming was right.
Gu Nuo’er heaved a sigh of relief when she saw the empress being helped up the steps by the hidden guards all the way to the monastery’s entrance.
As the state monastery, Tais.h.i.+ Monastery had always been filled with visitors and received incense offerings.
However, because the empress was bringing the princess to stay for a few days, two days ago, Gu Yihan had already ordered people to seal off the mountain path to the Tais.h.i.+ Monastery.
Tais.h.i.+ Monastery’s main door was yellow and red, and the word ‘Buddhism’ was carved deeply into it. The sound of the bell also accentuated the valley’s serenity and filled with Zen.
The hidden guards helped the empress, Wanyin helped A’Yun, and Mu Shuzhen followed behind. They entered the monastery one after another.
Only Ye Siming carried Gu Nuo’er and stood at the entrance of Tais.h.i.+ Monastery. He looked up at the signboard with a frown and pondered.
“Elder Brother Siming, aren’t you going in?”
Ye Siming came back to his senses. “I am.”
He stepped inside and nothing strange happened.
Some of the novice monks had already noticed the arrival of the empress and the others. They hurriedly went to inform the abbot, Eminent Monk Zhijue.
Abbot Zhijue led the monks and stood under the trees in the front yard, welcoming the empress and princess.
Empress Du still had lingering fear from the fall earlier. “We’ll be disturbing the Abbot for the next few days. Please bring us to the meditation room.”
After saying that, she looked at Gu Nuo’er with a gentle gaze. “My daughter hasn’t eaten yet. Abbot, please help to prepare some delicious hot dishes for her to try.”
Zhijue nodded. “Don’t worry.”
The abbot was already over 70 years old. His beard was white, and his eyes were filled with wisdom and age.
His gaze slowly swept across Gu Nuo’er.
The child was hugging Ye Siming’s arm and she greeted the abbot with a smile, “Monk grandpa~”
Her voice was sweet and obedient, causing Zhijue to smile kindly.
Although Zhijue might not remember it, Gu Nuo’er still had a strong impression of him.
It was back when she was still in Heavenly Lake before she was born.
When Abbot Zhijue saw that her mother, n.o.ble Consort Qiao, was having a difficult labor, he kept on chanting the Peace Mantra for the n.o.ble consort and her.
She had an exceptionally good impression of this old monk.
When Abbot Zhijue saw the young boy beside Gu Nuo’er, his white brows slowly furrowed.
The boy’s aura was gloomy, and his eyes were cold and dangerous.
He was like a cautious and swift lone wolf, exuding a murderous aura from head to toe.
After only a moment, Abbot Zhijue looked away.
He then asked a novice monk to lead everyone to the meditation room in the backyard.
Gu Nuo’er and the empress were arranged to stay in the same courtyard while Ye Siming’s accommodation was behind hers.
Ye Siming sent the child and Wanyin to Gu Nuo’er’s room. Gu Nuo’er tilted her head. “Elder Brother Siming, if you’re bored, come find me. I’ll bring you to play~”
Ye Siming replied coldly, “I want to sleep.”
With that, he left coolly.
Wanyin was dissatisfied with his att.i.tude towards the princess and was rather angry.
They would usually speak very kindly to the princess.
The princess was so cute, how could he be so cold to her!
Wanyin opened the bag and took out the clothes n.o.ble Consort Qiao had prepared for Gu Nuo’er to hang in the wardrobe.
While doing so, she complained, “Princess, this Young Master Ye doesn’t seem suitable to be your guard. His temper is too fierce and his att.i.tude is cold and too arrogant.
