Raiders of His Royal Highness

Early the next day.

Yu Ling took the two brothers Huai Lu and Huai Ning out of the palace.

In the stable carriage, Huaining carefully handed the brewed tea to Yu Ling, and whispered, "Your Highness, we are going to travel in a low-key way, but there are so many guards behind us..."

"It doesn't matter, the shadow will follow behind. When we arrive at Donglin Temple, let him pretend to be the palace."

Shadow is a hidden guard who is about the same size as her, and is proficient in disguise, so it is very suitable to pretend to be her, and it is also convenient for her to do things.

Huai Ning thought of Ying Ying's colder appearance than his brother, and wondered if he would still be so cold after pretending to be His Highness.

……

Donglin Temple is located on the hillside of Donglin Mountain in the suburbs of Beijing. It had a high reputation in the Dajing Dynasty and was known as the National Temple.Because it was far away from the capital, it was past noon when Yu Ling and his party arrived in a carriage.

The abbot of the temple received Yu Ling, and after entering the incense, she went to rest in the meditation room arranged by the abbot on the grounds that she was not feeling well.

"Shadow." Yu Ling called softly.

A shadow exactly like Yu Ling quietly appeared in front of her.

Looking at the shadow's face that was completely indistinguishable from her own, Yu Ling ordered: "You stay in the temple for the past two days, and you have an idea of ​​what to do."

After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at Huai Lu with a cold face, and said, "You stay here, and if there is any situation, notify me immediately."

After speaking, he took Huaining and left quietly.

The mountain behind Donglin Temple.

Towering ancient trees, shrouded in clouds and smoke.The sparse sunlight pours down through the gaps in the branches and leaves, and the mottled tree shadows dance lightly in the clouds and mists.

The two figures shuttled through the forest for a while before reaching the top of the mountain.

A small waterfall hangs from the top of the mountain, and a crooked wooden house stands beside the waterfall.There are some lush herbs planted outside the wooden house, and a bald old man in coarse clothes is bending over to take care of the herbs.

"Old monk, where is your medicine?" Huaining brought out the only broken stool in the wooden house to Yu Ling, seeing Yu Ling's complexion getting paler, he hurriedly asked the bald old man.

The old monk stood up, glanced at Yu Ling whose lips were all white, clicked his tongue twice, and said, "Why do you still look like a ghost now even if you don't use internal energy? Come, come, I will take a pulse for you."

Yu Ling used lightness kung fu to go up to the top of the mountain, and was extremely tired at the moment, leaning against the wall of the dilapidated house, smiled, and said: "I still can't die, I'll last until you practice the medicine."

The old monk is her master, and besides the queen mother, the only one who knows her identity as a woman.Back then, she left the palace and went to Jingwei Mountain to recuperate. She taught herself some medical skills. She saw in medical books that there were medicinal materials suitable for her recuperation in the back mountain of Donglin, so she came here to collect herbs.

However, the land belonged to the old monk. At that time, she passed out in the medicine garden before she reached the top of the mountain, and it was the old monk who picked her up and poured a lot of medicine to save her.

As soon as she woke up, the old monk clamored for her to pay him for the medicinal herbs. At that time, she was penniless, so he detained her to take care of the medicinal herbs here.

Later, he saw that she had a lot of insight into medical skills, so he showed her some medical books in his collection, and occasionally gave her pointers when he was interested.But because of her poor health, the old monk would occasionally concoct some medicine for her to take.And in order to make her strong, he also taught her some martial arts.

After three years like this, the old monk let her go.At that time, he already knew her identity. In order to avoid her female identity being exposed, the old monk also taught her the art of changing pulses.Afterwards, even if someone felt her pulse, they would not be able to tell that she was a woman.

So this old monk is both a teacher and a friend to her.

Afterwards, she gradually gained her own influence, and her actions became more convenient, and she would occasionally come here to ask the old monk for some medicine.

This time it was because the last time I rescued Shu'er, my body was not feeling well after using lightness kung fu, so I sent a letter to the old monk to ask him if he could help.The old monk wrote back and said that he was concocting a medicine for her, but the medicine was a little special and she had to come in person.

Yu Ling was very tired after using lightness kung fu again just now.Seeing the old monk taking her pulse and frowning, she joked, "Isn't it really about to die?"

Seeing Yu Ling's heartless and indifferent appearance, the old monk slapped her on the head and said, "If you really want to find Lord Hades so much, don't come here."
