In his spare time, Xie Chenning would go to Wei Ke's room to see that the once high and mighty Crown Prince had now become a little flower slave.

But his temperament is still extraordinary, calm and composed, as if the changes in the world have nothing to do with him.

Every time Xie Chenning came, Wei Ke didn't mind and let her do as she pleased.

He was minding his own business, without any intention of avoiding her.

Xie Chenning looked at his focused expression, and a ripple appeared in his heart.

Whenever Xie Chenning flipped through the books on the bookshelf, he could tell that he had a wide range of interests, from astronomy and geography, state governance to agriculture, water conservancy, and vernacular novels.

There are often many official documents piled on his desk, but he is just a small flower slave now.

When she was in a good mood, Wen Ke would play a piece of music for her, "The Phoenix Seeks the Phoenix".

It turns out that he is proficient in everything from music, chess, calligraphy and painting.

Xie Chenning was flipping through the book in his hand and happened to see a strange theory.

She recalled Xie Feisi's reply a few days ago. He said:

As a soldier who had always fought in wars, he did not believe in ghosts and gods until Xie Chenpin sent him a message telling him that his daughter had become a different person. Then he listened to the military advisor's advice and tried every possible means to find the master opposite him.

In fact, Xie Feisi was always in a state of doubt about what the master said back then.

However, things had come to this point and there was no other way. Xie Feisi had no choice but to try his luck and sent his beloved daughter "Xie Chenning" into the palace.

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, three whole years have passed.

During this period, Xie Feisi never gave up searching for the whereabouts of the mysterious master, but no matter how hard they tried, they were unable to obtain any information about this master.

Faced with such strange things that could not be explained by common sense, Xie Feisi would feel a deep sense of powerlessness in his heart. Even though he was now powerful and wealthy, he was still helpless.

The three-year period was up, and a miracle happened - his precious daughter finally returned to that body safely!

It was not until this moment that Xie Feisi's heart finally settled down, and he began to truly believe that what the master said was true.

Some time ago, the master sent a letter stating that he would be waiting for Xie Chenning's arrival at Lingshan Temple in three months.

This master had a rather strange temper, so Xie Feisi and the others did not dare to ask too many questions. They could only pray silently for their daughter in their hearts, hoping that she would return safely as soon as possible.

Time flies, and now, counting on my fingers, the agreed date of March is just around the corner.

That's why Xie Feisi hurriedly sent a message, asking Xie Chenning to go to Lingshan Temple to meet the master.

Not only that, Xie Feisi also specifically asked Xie Chenpin to accompany him, so that he could take care of Xie Chenning on the way, and secondly, he could confirm in person whether his beloved daughter, whom he had been thinking about day and night, had really returned safely.

Thinking back, Xie Chenning closed the book. She raised her head slightly, looked at the person in front of her, and said slowly: "In two days, accompany me to Lingshan Temple. Chen Pin also said he wants to see you."

"Okay." Wei Ke agreed readily, without any hesitation in his words.

The original owner also went to the temple to pray every year. This time, Wei Ming had just obtained the position of concubine for his beloved Mu Ni, and he was in a good mood, so he allowed the queen to leave the palace to pray without hesitation.

Xie Chenning did not want to make a big fuss about the trip, so he just made some simple preparations.

Nanny Lu had already arranged in advance for two personal maids and eunuchs to arrive at Lingguang Temple in advance to take care of the queen's daily life and convey necessary instructions.

Xie Chenning was wearing a plain dress with elegant colors and fluttering sleeves. The hair accessories on her head were also simple, with only a few exquisite jade hairpins embellishing it, which was neither ostentatious nor lacking in elegance and generosity.

Just like that, Xie Chenning traveled light, bringing only her personal maid Wei Ke and the experienced Nanny Lu, and boarded an inconspicuous carriage.

As the driver waved the whip, a crisp whip sound was heard, the carriage started slowly, the wheels rumbled, and it quietly drove towards the temple outside the city.

There were also several guards with high martial arts skills disguised as ordinary people, protecting Xie Chenning's safety from a distance.

The carriage traveled smoothly all the way, and finally, it arrived at Lingguang Temple.

Lingshan Temple stands quietly in the southern suburbs of Beijing, embedded between green mountains and clear waters. With rolling mountains behind it and the Min River flowing in front of the temple.

The river gurgles, the environment is quiet and pleasant, and the air is filled with the faint scent of flowers and the fresh scent of grass, making people feel relaxed and happy.

As you enter Lingshan Temple, a tranquil and ancient atmosphere hits you.

The temple has a unique architectural style, with flying eaves, brackets, carved beams and painted buildings, and red walls and yellow tiles that complement the surrounding green trees and mountains.

The courtyard inside the temple is spacious and clean. In each hall, there is a solemn and majestic Buddha statue. In front of the Buddha statues, incense smoke curls and candlelight flickers, exuding an atmosphere of peace and tranquility.

Xie Chenning had just finished praying and straightened his clothes, and was about to go out to look for the legendary master.

A figure came into view without warning. A monk with white hair and beard and a kind face was standing outside the door.

His appearance was so abrupt yet just right, as if there really was some mysterious and unspeakable force controlling everything.

The master had a amiable smile on his face, but deep in his eyes seemed to hide endless profound wisdom.

When Xie Chenning saw the master suddenly appear, he was slightly startled at first, then he leaned forward and said, "Master..."

Before he could finish his words, the great master named Monk Huikong spoke first.

"It'll be good to come back, it'll be good to come back."

Its sound is steady and low, like morning bells and evening drums, echoing in the air.

Monk Huikong just quietly looked at the queen in front of him, as if he had already seen through all the confusion and bewilderment hidden deep in Xie Chenning's heart.

Before Xie Chenning could further explain his purpose, he took the initiative to speak: "If your majesty still has doubts in her heart, you might as well regard the past three years as an illusory dream for the time being."

Hearing these words, Xie Chenning's heart was shocked, and a hint of surprise flashed in her beautiful eyes.

"I see. But come back. What do you mean by come back?"

At this moment, she stared intently at the seemingly unfathomable master in front of her. Her intuition told her that this person might know a lot about the bizarre things that happened to her.
