Not Difficult

This kind of thing such as harming another’s life, Grandmaster Liao Chen naturally wasn’t willing to do. However, he couldn’t completely reject this living Enma either. Deliberating for a moment, “Wangye, in reality, Shu Consort and the Imperial Noble Consort, even if the closest in fate, it’s also just relatively. The disparity is still very big. Even if it succeeds, the time also won’t be long. This humble monk suggest why don’t wangye have this matter told to the Imperial Noble Consort. Even if willing, it still needs for both parties to be willing. If the Imperial Noble Consort opposes, then it won’t succeed either.”
How could Li Hong Yuan not understand Grandmaster Liao Chen’s meaning. In his view, if one were to really let his birth mother know, then the possibility of her refusing was very big. However, he didn’t suspect the truthfulness of Grandmaster Liao Chen’s words either. “Aside from this, is there any other way?”
“There is, throughout the entirety of Qi Yuan, set up eighty-one buddhist altars, and at every altar, have eighty-one monks carry out eighty-one days of prayers at the same time………”
“This is simple.” It appears large-scale, but when broken down, it was actually not that bad. However, isn’t this too simple?
“Wangye, this is just the start. What is truly needed is the ‘blessings of the people’. The more people, the better the effect. The longest time, perhaps can last until the end of wangye’s own time.”
Li Hong Yuan lightly frowned. Sure enough, it wasn’t that simple. Setting up the buddhist altars can still be done in secret, but receiving the ‘blessings of the people’ absolutely can’t be kept in the dark. Shaking up the entire Qi Yuan, how would it just be moving the mass that simple?
Even that so called imperial father of his, longing for his bithrth mother in kinds of ways, at certain times even having a stance of going crazy for her and disregarding everything, but if one really were to cause this big of a disturbance, afraid, even he won’t easily nod his head and agree. After all, regardless whether it’s the Imperial Noble Consort, or Li Hong Yuan, his extreme pampering had a big premise, that was it can’t involve Qi Yuan’s mountains and rivers.
When Le Cheng Emperor first encountered the Imperial Noble Consort, perhaps he’d considered wanting the beauty and not the country, but that kind of thought was probably very short-lived. After achieving his goal, that thought presumably already disappeared without a trace.
In Li Hong Yuan’s view, letting thousands upon thousands of people genuinely pray for a person, that was much harder than killing thousands of people.
As such, this route, Li Hong Yuan for the most part didn’t consider.
“There isn’t a third way?” Li Hong Yuan calmly asked.
“Amitabha Buddha. Wangye, to want something simple, yet don’t need to pay a price, this kind of thing, if it really appeared, afraid you would suspect it first thing.” Towards Li Hong Yuan’s personality, Grandmaster Liao Chen also understood quite well.
Li Hong Yuan nodded, expressing that he understood. Afterwards, he picked up that jade pendant, preparing to leave. Since the main matter was already finished, he naturally wasn’t willing to continue facing an old bald monk. No matter who, all can’t be more important than one’s own wife, no?
This was the typical case of ‘throwing away after using’. Even Grandmaster Liao Chen all can’t help but suspect, whether or not him specially returning was really worth it.
“Wangye, please wait. This piece of jade, this humble monk can strengthen its preservation. You can have it left by Shu Consort’s side and her let carry around. It can stabilize the soul and nourish the soul. Although its use is limited, but the inside of this jade is the best place to raise a soul after all.”
Li Hong Yuan had the jade handed over, “Just now, grandmaster said, to let this prince ask her, is there a way to let her come out and meet with this prince? Since the matter involves Shu Consort Qin, can’t still let Shu Consort Qin pass on the word.”
“Every time the Imperial Noble Consort controls Shu Consort’s body, it will all greatly drain her.” And the damage towards Shu Consort isn’t small either.

Li Hong Yuan sneered, “Then, why the need to say that kind of useless words.”
With someone like Li Hong Yuan, that was unable to nicely talk.
Grandmaster Liao Chen had the jade grasped in hand, closing his eyes, his lips opening and closing, chanting scriptures for about a quarter of an hour, before passing it back to Li Hong Yuan, “Give it to Shu Consort, and after seventy-two hours, go meet ‘her’.”
Li Hong Yuan had the jade placed before his eyes. Unknown as to whether it was the psychological effect or not, he kept feeling that this piece of jade was seemingly even more lustrous. “Grandmaster, since this jade can nourish the soul, then does it mean that it’s very special.”
“Person raises the jade, the jade raises the person. If suitable, it can become a priceless treasure, but if not, no matter how good, it’s still just a piece of relatively good jade, that’s all.”
To put it bluntly, this piece of jade was just exceptionally compatible with the Imperial Noble Consort.
Li Hong Yuan put away the jade and unhesitantly left.
Jing Wan was dressed warmly, and can be said to be fully equipped, casually strolling around the White Dragon Temple. Because she was moving the whole time, she actually didn’t feel cold, and White Dragon Temple’s winter scenery really was very beautiful and very spectacular. One had to admit, the White Dragon Temple really was a place of good feng shui.
Jing Wan stood atop a high place. From where she was standing right now, she just happened to be able to faintly see the river at the foot of White Dragon Mountain. Because it was too far away, it seemed as if it wasn’t too different from a relatively wide gutter, unable to tell whether the river flow was rapid or calm. At this time, however, Jing Wan blankly stared on, somewhat in a daze.
“What is Wan Wan thinking about?” When Li Hong Yuan found her, seeing her like this, he couldn’t help but ask.
Jing Wan turned back to look at him, lightly smiling, “Thinking about the first time I interacted with Ah Yuan. It really was such a deep impression.”
Li Hong Yuan lifted his brow, “How come Wan Wan didn’t say intimate interaction? It was indeed deep, even endlessly reminiscent.” As he said this, he even deliberately licked his lips seductively.
Jing Wan slightly narrowed her eyes, “I recall a certain someone seemingly wasn’t even conscious, in a half-unconscious state, so where did this deep impression come from, and how are you able to reminisce?”
Can Li Hong Yuan say, he actually wasn’t completely unconscious. At the time, his self-control perhaps was very bad, but the senses he should have, he all had, and the memories he should have, he all had? The taste was indeed wonderful! However, this matter, he really can’t say.
Jing Wan was full of smiles, but strangely felt a bit dangerous, “I still haven’t asked wangye, at the time, who were you calling? To be able to let wangye have that big of a reaction, the disparity with that person in my perceptions really was quite big. Is it the white moonlight at the top of heart, or the cinnabar at the tip of the heart?”
“If I say, I was precisely calling Wan Wan, you, would you believe?”
Jing Wan loudly sneered, clearly not believing. However, in the depths of her heart, there was a trace of peculiarity that even she herself didn’t detect.
Li Hong Yuan revealed a hurt expression, “This husband has always only ever lost control in front of Wan Wan.”
Jing Wan declined to comment, “Finished with the matter?”
Li Hong Yuan felt it was a bit of a pity. Actually, he was waiting for Wan Wan to dig to the root of the problem. Although he didn’t want to tell her now, but whether or not he said was one thing, and whether or not Wan Wan asked or another. Every time when there was a bit of development, Wan Wan seemingly would all subconsciously avoid, just like instinctively avoiding a forbidden area.
“More or less, but to want to carry out is just too difficult.”
“Can’t reveal even a bit for me to know?” To say she wasn’t curious definitely was a lie.
“Not really.” Li Hong Yuan deliberated, “Just want to hold a large ceremony that extends throughout the world for her, and also the blessings of the people.”
This isn’t difficult.”
“En?” Something that even he felt was impossible, “What brilliant idea does Wan Wan have?”
“Create a heavenly phenomenon and have the Imperial Noble Consort deified, an immortal fairy of the high heavens and whatnot. If handled well, the results definitely will be very good.”
Li Hong Yuan contemplated…………
