Li Hei starts to teach Yu Chen every single word by writing them on the paper step by step. It is difficult for Yu Chen to hold the pen with that small hand since she is only 3 months old. However， Yu Chen leans everything quick unbelievably. Li Hei didn’t tell any of these to the king because she knows this kid has her own thinking and she wants to let Yu Chen tell the king herself whenever she wants to.
When Yu Chen finishes her education for today， she went back to her room.
“Shadow Guards.” Yu Chen calls and looks at an empty place where has nobody， but Yu Chen can feel that there is somebody there. It must be the shadow guard that the king gave her.
“Yes， Miss.” Two men come out from where Yu Chen is looking at and kneeing on the ground in front of Yu Chen.
“I got both of you two from the king. Am I your only host or you still need to report my information to the king?” Yu Chen needs somebody to work for her only with honor.
“Only you， Miss. We will not be able to betray you and pass any of your secrets to others including the king. The moment that we are passed to you， Li Hei put honor magic on us. Our owner is only you. If we do anything that disobeys your order， our hearts would hurt badly and we will also be lighted from the sky as a punishment.”
“Is it possible to clear this magic?” Yu Chen doesn’t like any relationship that is built upon forcing or threatening， especially these two guys will be her closest friends at least for these several years.
“We don’t know.”
“Is there somebody who can talk to the god in the palace?” Yu Chen knows this question sounds stupid. And she doesn’t expect an answer from them at all， but surprisingly， the reply is，“yes.”
They bring Yu Chen to the temple secretly. The temple is located in the north-east corner and people are usually not allowed to go even nearby. Therefore， Yu Chen can because she has the golden card from the king and that two shadow guards are elites.
Nobody knows that a little girl gets into the temple which only allows the king and queen to enter without noticing the abbot. The moment that Yu Chen gets in， a monk sees and notices the Buddhist abbot. Yu Chen sits on the chair and waits for the abbot to come.
“Mr. Abbot， Miss Chen wants to talk to you privately and secretly.” One of the shadow guards goes beside the Abbot and passes what Yu Chen wants him to say to the Buddhist when he arrives.
“Miss Li， my pleasure. This way.” The Abbot guides the shadow guards to take Yu Chen to a single secret room behind a wall. After they put Yu Chen on a chair， they leave that room. Now there is only Yu Chen and the Abbot in the room.
“Mr. Abbot， I am sorry for coming without noticing you before.”
“It’s totally fine， Miss Li. We are here and free all the time for protecting the country.”
“Are you the head of this temple?” This old man looks trustworthy and kind. If he is the manager of this temple， Yu Chen wants to share part of her secret to see if he can be on her side.
“No， I am not. The head of this temple is Mr. Murong. He is out of the country nearly all the time， so I handle everything for now.”
Yu Chen likes the way he speaks. No question， just smiling and answering the questions smoothly and confidently.
“I can feel you are a strong man with power inside. May you tell me what did the god told you about me?” Yu Chen decides to ask this question straight forward. She has nothing to lose， likewise， she has nothing to pay for fair trade. If the abbot decides not to answer her question， she would actively try other ways to let the citizens in this country know that she is a kid that gives them luck.
看着想自己提问的婴儿，方丈收起了脸上的笑意，再没有毕恭毕敬地站在沉羽面前，而是走到沉羽身旁的另外一张一字坐下，两人并排坐着，面对着暗门的方向。“亦正亦邪，对国运有重大影响。”方丈在眼前这个小女孩儿身上所感受到的正气浑然天成，这也是他选择回答这个女孩儿的原因。他已经决定不会把这则语言告知皇上，至于这个女孩儿的命，多的是人要。
“我希望你们把我当一个普通孩子，所卜内容隐瞒圣上，我发誓我不会危害这个国家，只要这个国家不害我爱的人。”沉羽此时定定地看着眼前的方丈，让一个比自己多活了好几辈子的老人，替自己背负欺君的罪名，还说的这么自信，仿佛是情理之中。
“为什么？”沉羽见过惜字如金的人，但眼前这个邪气外溢的男人让人发毛。此时，面前的男人再没有演戏，将自己的气场毫无保留地释放出来。这个让人不寒而栗的男人让沉羽呼吸困难，不知道是什么原因，一阵恐惧和委屈涌上心头，眼泪就要夺框而出。就在眼泪要掉下来的一瞬间，沉羽咬破了自己的嘴唇，（请不要问为什么她有牙齿...就当在肚子里三年里她已经发育了...），来自嘴唇的痛感和血腥的铜锈味换回了沉羽的理智。她看着这个先前那个在外面满面柔光的方丈，浑身所有的警戒全部打开，他的举手投足都在说明一个事实：这个男人很危险。这样的人物为什么会在皇宫？皇上知道他的存在吗？
“你很不错。”方丈盘算着，这女孩儿来自异世，据自己调查，她不过20岁上下就这般淡定。她可以为自己所用。沉羽不知道的是自己刚刚从鬼门关走了一遭，刚刚那样来自一个那样强者的镇压，如果失了心神，流下眼泪，将会被彻底摧毁心神，成为一具行尸走肉。只有强大到连流下眼泪都不允许的强者才可能活命。方丈紧绷的脸渐渐露出了满意的笑容，见沉羽不开口，直勾勾地看着他，他不禁对沉羽的评价又高了几分：沉得住气，能成大事。
“你知道你在这里活命很难。”
沉羽没想到这男人会把话这样明讲。“是，所以我不能让皇上感到我对他的政权有威胁。”欧阳熠如火纯青的特长就是察言观色和洞察人心。她已经感受到面前老人的杀意全无，开始把自己归于与他相同阵营。这样的划分对沉羽来讲无疑是保命符，这个男人之前在伪装，现在自己知道他不是佛陀这个秘密，要么自己为他所用，要么自己就只有被灭口。她可不指望自己的战五渣父亲和体弱不醒的母亲会心灵感应来这里把自己救下来。
此时的她没有任何资格谋划，她只有全盘托出，没有任何保留。沉羽也知道，自己一句谎话就意味着对这个男人有威胁，而取自己的性命对这个男人来说只是动动手指这么简单。
见方丈没有说话，沉羽知道他是在无声地问自己：你有什么资格活下来？证明你能为我所用的能力。
“告诉我你的目的，我会告诉你我能不能做到。”沉羽也有自己的底线。她不会撒谎，但她在强大之前会对面前这个男人称臣。
“十年之内，我要十国皇帝太子，合计20人，每人欠你一个人情。一个无论你提什么要求都无法拒绝的人情。”没有对沉羽还是一个婴儿的鄙夷，平等地不能在平等。沉羽微微盘算，要达成这个目的，自己和他们必须是过命的交情，或者自己掌握着他们国家的命脉。这样的布局，10个国家，自己只身一人，10年之内，难于登天。
“你能给我什么帮助吗？”这是沉羽迫不得已问出来的。大多时候她不喜欢寻求别人的帮助，但现在她什么都没有。人脉，朋友，武力，甚至还是个文盲。信息的收集被阻，如果没有任何帮助，在10年之内，她做不到。
“1年的时间，我会回答你任何问题。一年之后我会离开，或许更早。”方丈淡淡地看着手里的茶杯，不知何时里面已经倒满了绿茶，淡淡地喝了一口。
“我可以问你几个问题，再回答吗？”现在沉羽尝试着还价，她不想每天活在没有计划的恐惧之中，她要了解这个世界的格局，如果10年做不到，她宁可现在死去。
“可以。”这男人的耐心出奇的好，着超乎了沉羽的意料。一般这样的男人不是尸体堆里走出来，就是原生家庭很残忍。不得不佩服沉羽对一个人的判断，此时的“方丈”也对自己的举措摸不着头脑，自己什么时候闲到回答一个20岁的娃娃提出的问题了？在这个争分夺秒的时刻，自己在干什么？
