"Young Master does not see guests." A Taoist saw that the woman was with King Cheng and his men, and he bowed and explained politely.

"Young Grandmaster?" Princess Kang Yi was stunned when she heard it.

Seeing that she wanted to find Yuntang as soon as she arrived, Cheng and the Prince felt helpless. Why did it seem like the eldest sister didn't understand the situation either?

Princess Cheng was inviting the wife of Duke Chen to go to the place she used to go, and she didn't notice that Princess Kang Yi had fallen behind.

However, the Prince of Chengyang, who was talking to Zheng Shifang nearby, also heard it and immediately frowned and reminded him, "Tang'er is busy, you just need to attend the ritual honestly."

"Brother, what are you talking about? I couldn't see Tang'er when I entered the palace, and I still couldn't see Tang'er when I came to Yunshang Temple. Is it us who can't see her, or is it she who can't see us?"

When Princess Kang Yi saw that her elder brother had a dark face and seemed to be scolding her, she became a little unhappy and couldn't help but speak.

Unexpectedly, her words made both Prince Chengyang and Prince Chenghe speechless.

Isn't it that you can't stand seeing each other on both sides? If you meet each other, you have to pay the price of talisman paper.

"Why aren't you talking?" Princess Kang Yi saw that they were silent, and she became even more confused. She felt that she was right and was about to say something else.

Zheng Yuanfang interrupted her in time and said seriously:

"Brother, come back first. They know more about Yunshang Temple's rituals than we do. You should stop thinking about nonsense here and just listen to your brother."

He was reminding Princess Kang Yi that she should just listen to her elder brother. Was she trying to start a quarrel by refuting her elder brother here?

In the southwest, the eldest brother is also the chief general. In the capital, the eldest brother is also the Prince of Cheng, the prince conferred by the emperor, and their eldest brother!

Princess Kangyi has a lot on her mind, but she listens to advice, which is much better than Princess Kangning.

Although she didn't understand what was going on, her husband was reminding her to listen to her eldest brother. Seeing her eldest brother's unhappy expression, she opened her mouth but didn't say anything.

But I have some unanswered questions in my mind, which makes me feel anxious.

She looked around to find someone she knew to inquire about the situation, but found that many of them were strangers.

There were also many civilians in the square, and even servants were moving around and chatting in the crowd. The chaotic and noisy scene made her frown.

Even though she had lived in the southwest for many years, she was a princess and the wife of a duke's son. When she went to the temple to burn incense, she was surrounded by maids and servants. How could she have ever put herself in such a chaotic scene?

This made her very uncomfortable.

Zheng Yuanfang has quietly asked Prince Chengyang about the situation.

I learned that Yuntang was the host of the ritual. He would not see other people during the ritual, and he would have to go into seclusion after the ritual and would not see relatives. If I wanted to see him, it would be best to wait until after the New Year.

Prince Chengyang was reluctant to tell the truth directly, but what she said was also true. At the end, she added that this was what the emperor said.

What the emperor said might be an oral order.

Zheng Yuanfang was quick-witted and immediately detected important signals from the limited information.

That is, no matter what the reason is, the result is that at least within this year, my niece Yuntang will not see their relatives, even if the elders want to see her.

And this is also the emperor's oral order.

After realizing this, Zheng Yuanfang walked over to Princess Kang Yi and whispered to her not to do anything rash.

"It's a mess here, and the prayer stools are placed outside. Are we supposed to worship here? It's so cold! Can't they arrange a room for us?"

Princess Kang Yi complained quietly that the southwest was not as cold as the capital. When she returned to the capital, she found it was even colder than in previous years.

She was already a little uncomfortable, and when she learned that she had to kneel here for most of the hour, and now that she had arrived early she had to stand outside in the wind, she was very unhappy.

"Since you can't bear this hardship, you should quickly take the children back to the manor. Don't wait until the ritual begins and then you can't bear it. If you do, it will disrupt the order of the ritual."

Seeing her complaining like this, Zheng Yuanfang became worried and immediately gave some advice.

"I won't leave. I have to wait until the ritual is over to see if I can see Tang'er. Isn't she a heavenly master? How could she not see believers?"

Princess Kang Yi whispered her plan.

She felt that Yuntang’s reason for not seeing his relatives was probably because of his mother Kang Ning. She was his aunt and had never treated the child badly, so how could she have any reason not to see him?

Seeing her making plans, Zheng Yuanfang couldn't help but frown.

He was afraid that she would start making trouble if she followed her temper. Not only would it disrupt the ritual at Yunshang Temple, it would also make others laugh at the Chen Guo Mansion.

"I'll go talk to my father-in-law and mother-in-law." Seeing Princess Kang Yi's indifferent attitude, Zheng Yuanfang turned around to look for his father-in-law, Prince Cheng.

Prince Cheng was already sitting on a prayer stool and talking to Duke Chen.

After hearing Zheng Yuanfang's description of Kang Yi's situation, he immediately said with a sullen face, "Tell her to get down the mountain quickly and not stay at Yunshang Temple."

Zheng Yuanfang didn't expect his father-in-law to be so decisive, and he was stunned for a moment.

King Cheng said: "What Yunshang Temple wants are believers, not people who come to join in the fun."

"There are no fewer than several thousand people coming here for every ritual, but there has never been any trouble."

"Don't do whatever you want just because you just returned to the capital and don't know what's going on there. Even I can't bear the consequences of disrupting the order of the law."

Behind this ritual was not only his granddaughter Yuntang, but also the emperor.

He had heard the emperor explain the purpose of the ritual in person in Qingfeng Palace.

If someone disrupted the ritual and affected the recovery of Tang'er's ninth senior brother and the emperor's ninth junior brother, it would probably incur the emperor's wrath.

Prince Cheng might not be as devoted to Taoism as he thinks, but he is now absolutely protecting the interests of his granddaughter.

Still worried, he instructed Zheng Yuanfang to immediately drive away all those who could not endure hardship, did not believe in the Tao, and could not face the rituals.

This "driving them all away" does not refer to the eight thousand believers, but only to everyone in the Chen Guogong Mansion.

Old Duke Chen was very embarrassed when he heard this, and asked carefully, "Is it that serious?"

Prince Cheng nodded solemnly, and just in time he saw people from the Duke of Wei's Mansion and General Xu's family had arrived. He quickly signaled Prince Chenghe, who was not far away, to invite them over.

According to Duke Weiguo and General Xu, this ritual is not important.

King Cheng felt a little embarrassed when he saw Qin Mingyu coming to greet them in a wheelchair.

The cancellation of the engagement was certainly the result of the disturbance caused by the wife of Duke Ping, but the cause was Kang Ning's calculation.

The innocent ones are three children.

Princess Kang Yi recognized Qin Mingyu and looked at him curiously for a long time. She was surprised that although he was sitting in a wheelchair, he looked very different from what she had heard at first.

As more and more believers arrived, Prince Cheng ordered that Princess Kang Yi was not allowed to stay here and was not allowed to come to Yunshang Temple in the next few days.

The words were spoken directly and decisively. Princess Kang Yi blushed and looked at her father aggrievedly. She couldn't believe that her father would humiliate her in front of so many people.

Just as she was about to explain, her hand was grabbed by Zheng Yuanfang.

Zheng Yuanfang said: "I'll take you down the mountain."
