It was not until Yan Qing took a step back and put some distance between herself and Luo Tang that her blank brain started to work again.

However, almost at this moment, Luo Tang felt a gaze filled with strong murderous intent and endless malice locking onto him.

Luo Tang tilted his head and looked in the direction of the source of the gaze. It was Princess Avna whom he had met at the celebration banquet that day.

At this moment, there was still strong malice in her eyes, and she looked at her without any concealment.

Luo Tang frowned. She had never offended this princess, so why would this person be so hostile towards her?

After Luo Tang turned her head, Yan Qing followed her line of sight and naturally saw Avna standing on the steps, along with her malicious intent that had not been completely restrained.

Yan Qing raised an eyebrow slightly, not too surprised by the malice in Avna's eyes.

Although Avna acted innocent and pure in front of her, as if everything she was thinking was written on her face, she did not forget the cruelty behind Avna's coquettishness in the original plot.

Feeling that this malice was directed at Luo Tang, Yan Qing's heart moved slightly and he began to make plans.

Before, Avna had always been by her side and had no interaction with the male and female protagonists.

I don’t know why I have the hostility towards Luo Tang as in the original plot. I don’t know if I can take this opportunity to make up for that plot.

After Yan Qing looked at her, Avna quickly suppressed the coldness in her eyes and smiled brightly: "Sister Qing."

She walked quickly between Yan Qing and Luo Tang, as if separating the two unintentionally.

"What a coincidence! Sister Qing also came to Fanyin Temple to burn incense. No wonder when I went to the Princess's Mansion to look for Sister Qing, the guard at the gate said that Sister Qing was not there."

Hearing this, Fuyun, who was not far away, looked at Avna with dark eyes.

Although His Highness has come to Fanyin Temple before Qingming Festival in recent years, this is not something that Avna, who has just arrived in the capital, could know.

Was it really a coincidence or did someone reveal His Highness's whereabouts to Avna? I have to investigate carefully when I return.

Yan Qing's eyes were filled with chills, but she smiled as she asked, "I heard that the Xiongnu believed in Shamanism. Is the little princess also interested in Buddhism?"

Avna smiled innocently: "Sister Qing, you don't know that we Xiongnu really only believe in Shamanism."

"However, in recent years, Western missionaries have brought Buddhism to the tribe to preach. I have listened to them once or twice out of curiosity. This time, I heard that Fanyin Temple is the largest Buddhist temple in the capital, so I wanted to see if there is any difference from what the Western missionaries said."

"I wanted to ask Sister Qing to come with me, but Sister Qing was not at the Princess's Mansion, so I had to come alone. I didn't expect Sister Qing to be here too."

At the end of her words, Avna had a look of grievance on her face, and looked at Yan Qing pitifully.

Yan Qing's expression remained unchanged, not knowing whether to believe it or not: "So that's the case, but the abbot of Fanyin Temple only comes out to preach on certain days, and it's rare to see him on other days. I'm afraid the little princess missed the opportunity today."

Avna didn't care. She came here for Yan Qing. All the things she said just now were just to avoid making her arrival seem too deliberate, which would be annoying.

She pulled Yan Qing's sleeve and said with a smile: "It's okay, I'll come again next time when I'm hosting a lecture."

Wu Lan took advantage of this gap to come out quickly, wrapped his arms around Yan Qing's wrist, rubbed his head obediently on Yan Qing's palm, and his cold pupils showed a hint of intimacy.

Yan Qing raised her hand and looked at the little guy in her palm. She didn't feel scared. These days, when Avna came to see her, Wu Lan would often slip out and lie on her hand, so she was quite familiar with it.

And this little guy is also very shy, just like Avna, it can only be said that the object resembles its owner.

If she looked at him for a few more seconds, he would shyly hide his head. When she wasn't looking, he would quietly stick his head out again, which sometimes reminded her of 012.

012 was like this when he first transformed into a kitten. He always looked at her quietly, afraid that she didn't like his current form.

Cats are the cutest creatures in the world, how could she not like cats!

Unlike Yan Qing who was relaxed, Luo Tang tensed up instantly when he saw the snake, and finally found an opportunity to interrupt: "Your Highness, be careful, this snake is extremely poisonous."

Avna turned to look at her and said unhappily, "Wulan will not hurt Sister Qing."

Wu Lan, who was wrapped around Yan Qing's wrist, also turned his head towards Luo Tang. There was a cruel look in his pupils, and he seemed to be eager to kill this man.

However, it immediately remembered what Avna had told it, that Yan Qing would not like this, so it had to lower its head in boredom. It liked the scent of Yan Qing so much and didn't want to be disliked by Yan Qing.

Luo Tang ignored Avna's words and just said to Yan Qing: "Your Highness should be careful."

Avna was so angry that she was about to explode. This woman was so annoying. If she hadn't been concerned about Yan Qing being by her side, she would have wanted someone to cut off her tongue so that she could never speak again.

Then he whipped her until she bled, and let Wu Lan crawl onto her wounds. He didn't bite her immediately, but let the wounds fester bit by bit, so that she would die in excruciating pain.

Yan Qing nodded to Luo Tang and said in a gentle tone: "Thank you Miss Luo for your reminder, but I still believe what the little princess said. Wu Lan will not hurt anyone casually."

Afna was a little disappointed at first because of Yan Qing's first sentence, but when she heard the second half of the sentence, that disappointment disappeared completely. She had a smug smile on the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, and smiled provocatively at Luo Tang.

Luo Tang pinched her fingertips and smiled as if she didn't care. She stopped talking about Wu Lan and asked softly, "Is Your Highness going to leave?"

Avna felt like she had punched cotton. She replied with a fake smile, "Sister Qing is with me, of course."

Yan Qing looked up at the sky. It was almost noon. More and more people came to the temple, including some familiar faces. She had already done all the worship she was supposed to do on this trip, and staying here would cause trouble.

"Well, it's time to leave."

After she finished speaking, she wanted to return Wu Lan in her hands to Avna. Wu Lan was reluctant to leave, so Avna said anxiously: "I will accompany Sister Qing back to the princess's mansion."

Yan Qing: "No need. Little Princess, don't you burn incense when you first arrive at Fanyin Temple?"

Luo Tang also smiled and said, "I can just walk with Your Highness for a while, Princess Avna can rest assured and look around the Fanyin Temple."

How could Afna allow Luo Tang and Yan Qing to be alone together? Besides, she didn't want to burn incense at all and just wanted to find Yan Qing.

She pulled Yan Qing's sleeve and shook it, and said coquettishly: "I will make up for this incense stick when I come to listen to the host's lecture. Sister Qing, do you think I'm annoying and don't want to take me with you?"

Yan Qing said helplessly: "No, let's go together."

After she finished speaking, she walked to the back, followed by Luo Tang and Avna. During the time, Avna's provocative words were politely blocked by Luo Tang.

Afna, who had not been well received by Luo Tang, finally calmed down, and Yan Qing's ears were also quiet for a moment.
