Chapter 1343: Beautiful Name

“Oranges aren’t considered a new thing,” Xue Wuhu said. “Anyway, I’ve eaten many new things over the years. They’re all things that Locust Village didn’t have before. It’s mainly because my village is small.”

Fu Ying was not surprised and put the fish food down to have a bite.

Xue Wuhu immediately handed her an orange.

Fu Ying peeled it and tasted it. It was very sweet. After that, she called for the chief eunuch and asked him to send half of the oranges to her mother, Empress Dowager Minde.

The chief eunuch left with a bow.

Only then did Xue Wuhu cheerfully say to Fu Ying, “Oh right, stinky girl, Jiang Yue asked me to tell you that it’s more dangerous outside than in the palace. Isn’t your Mother going out of the palace to the temple to pray for blessings the day after tomorrow? He asked you to send more people to protect your mother.”

Fu Ying, who was still eating the sweet orange, stopped.

Her eyes were instantly filled with vigilance.

What trap was he trying to lure her into again? Or… Did he care about her?

She had already planned to send a lot of guards. Now, no matter why Jiang Yue said that she would send more people to protect her mother.

It was better to send more people than less to prevent accidents.

She no longer had her father, so she could not lose her mother.

She didn’t want to be alone in this world without any family.

Her mother was her only relative in this world.

It was only when Xue Wuhu was no longer in front of Fu Ying that the two guards approached and reported to Fu Ying what they had heard. Then, they said, “We didn’t find anything strange with Master Xue. His two family members didn’t say anything strange. Even though they were talking behind closed doors, they didn’t seem to be avoiding us. We heard everything they said. They could have communicated in a low voice or in some other way, but because the door was closed, we only heard that much.”

The more they did not deliberately avoid it, the more intentional it was.

If he was really sincere… Could it be that something big would happen when her mother left the palace this time?

Was it Fu Xu?

The hands under the sleeves of Fu Ying’s robe clenched into fists. She didn’t approve of her mother leaving the palace to pray for blessings because she was worried that Fu Xu might harm her mother. If she couldn’t stop her mother, she could only send more people to protect her. Now that Xue Wuhu and the others had deliberately mentioned this matter, it made her even more worried…

If she could use a certain method of confinement, she had to stop her mother from leaving the palace. However, her mother would hate her to death, thinking that she had caused her to be unable to be blessed by Bodhisattva to live a long life…

Moreover, even if she could stop her from going this time, what about the next time? Her mother would want to go to the temple… If she continued to stop her, she would probably be forcing her mother to her death…

She still remembered that when her father was still alive because he did not believe in ghosts and gods, he got very annoyed when her mother spoke about those things. He almost tore down the small temple hall in the palace. At that time, her mother hit her head against a pillar. Fortunately, she did not die, but it really scared her father. Although her father never allowed her mother to leave the palace to go to any temples, ever since then, he had never thought of tearing down the small temple hall in the palace…

Her mother was famous for her stubbornness in this matter. It was as if she was possessed…

She had no choice.

She had to send more guards over.

In the blink of an eye, April 15th arrived.

Early in the morning, a large group of people was escorting Empress Dowager Minde to the temple outside the city that was a hundred miles away, to pray for blessings.

Euphemistically, it was to pray for Beicheng and Fu Ying.
