Chapter 2239
At this time, Tang Sanzang was in the palace's back garden, standing on a stone bridge, looking at a pool of water, with the Queen of the Kingdom of Women standing beside him.
Tang Sanzang felt somewhat restless at this moment; such beautiful scenery seemed to be something he had no heart to appreciate.
"I don't know if Wukong and the others went to that place and brought back the method to abort the fetus."
Tang Sanzang stood by the railing, frowning as he spoke.
The Queen looked at his profile, her eyes filled with affection. He smiled softly and said, "Brother Imperial Brother, believe that Sun Wukong will definitely be able to bring back the method to abort the fetus."
Tang Sanzang turned his head and glanced at him, only to find his eyes overflowing with affection, just staring at him like that.
Tang Sanzang had never been looked at like this before. He immediately felt embarrassed and blushed. He suddenly turned his head away and said, "I hope Wukong and the others return soon. Once Bajie's fetus is aborted, we can quickly head to the Western Heaven to seek the true scriptures."
Seeing that he wouldn't meet his gaze at all, the Queen couldn't help but feel a bit sad. Who could understand the thousand thoughts in his heart?
Ever since Tang Sanzang came to the Kingdom of Women, his jade-like face and elegant, graceful manners had long since moved his heart.
He frowned, looked at Tang Sanzang, and said, "Brother Imperial Brother, are you really in such a hurry to leave here?"
"The journey to the west is arduous and tiring. Look at our Kingdom of Women of Xiliang, which is rich in resources. Why not rest and play here for a few days before going to the Western Heaven to seek the scriptures?"
Hearing this, Tang Sanzang naturally guessed his intentions. He smiled slightly, suddenly faced the Queen, performed a Buddhist salute, and said, "Amitabha, I have traveled west all the way, naturally to prove my sincerity to the Buddha. Why should I fear those hardships and toils?"
"Thank you for your generous hospitality during my stay in your kingdom these past two days."
The Queen's beautiful eyes shimmered with light. He was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Why speak of thanks? The Tang Dynasty is the supreme power of the land, and all kingdoms should treat it with courtesy."
"It's just, Brother Imperial Brother, besides being interested in Buddhism, do you have no other interests?"
The Queen's words were already extremely clear, testing Tang Sanzang's inner heart.
Tang Sanzang sighed. Come to think of it, on this trip to the Kingdom of Women of Xiliang, the Queen had given them the highest courtesy.
He had also settled the pregnant Marshal Tianpeng, sent people to take care of him, and even had his own younger sibling take Sun Wukong and the others to seek the method to abort the fetus.
If it were an ordinary monarch, they probably wouldn't have been this good to them, let alone the fact that the method to abort the fetus actually carried great danger.
If he didn't like him, why would he persuade Die Lan to take Sun Wukong and the others to that place? If he didn't like him, why would he take such diligent care of them?
Just this morning, the Queen had suddenly come to the door of Tang Sanzang's guest room, saying he wanted to invite him to the back garden to enjoy the flowers. Tang Sanzang had intended to decline because he was still copying Buddhist scriptures in his room at that time and didn't want to pay any attention to worldly affairs.
But he couldn't really refuse; this was the Queen's personal invitation, and he was currently staying in the palace, with everything being the Queen's extra care.
But after he arrived at the back garden, he found that everything exceeded his expectations. From beginning to end, the Queen just looked at him with deep affection.
