An Eight-year-old Princess

Master Wu Na smiled, looked at Yun Shang, and said," It wasn't a cold. This illness is an accident written in Her Highness's predestined fate. Although the Princess is favored by the Buddha, this time, however, she leaked the design of God, for which she was punished. I've foreseen that, and I come here only to save her."

"An inexorable doom, you mean?" When Emperor Ning heard this, his face became very serious. His eyes scanned the faces of others present in the room, from Yun Shang to Master Wu Na. Then he asked," Is there any solution, Master?"

Wu Na nodded," The solution is simple, but Her Highness will have to endure some hardship. Her Highness needs to live in Ning'guo temple for a while. Our temple is a sacred place graced by Buddha, which will protect Her Highness from any disaster."

Startled, Yun Shang raised her eyes and took a quick glance at Master Wu Na, but she saw the expression on his face to be calm and solemn, and what he had said was not like a false statement. Yun Shang thought to herself, maybe this was the chance to sneak out of the Palace just as Lady Jin had mentioned.

But how did her mother get in contact with Master Wu Na? It took half a day to travel from Ning'guo temple to the Palace in a carriage, or two hours by horse. Perhaps Lady Jin had sent for Master Wu Na the night before her visit?

Master Wu Na continued," Her Highness' illness is more serious than it looks. If it is not cured in time, Her Highness will suffer from the lingering effects. After which Her Highness will never recover, I'm afraid. But if she can have some quiet cultivation in the temple, she still stands a chance to recover. "

Emperor Ning frowned and thought for a long time, then he asked," How long will it take?"

Master Wu Na thought for a while before answering," I am not sure now. To know that, I have to call the elders in the temple to do divination before Buddha. If there is a result, Your Majesty will be informed immediately. I will take good care of Her Highness. Besides, Mr. Yuanshan* and I are good friends, I wouldn't do any harm to Her Highness for his sake."
