On the way back to the palace, Princess Jue laughed out loud in the carriage and said to Princess Jun: "Fourth sister, you should be like this, tease that Chen Ling well, and see if he dares to attack your idea." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

She didn't think that Princess Jun really gave Chen Ling a chance, but thought that Duke Jun was mainly teasing him.

Prince Zhao stayed in the palace of King Qin and refused to return to the palace, so only Princess Jun and Princess Jue were left in the carriage that came back.

Princess Jun didn't speak, but seemed to be thinking about something in her heart.

Princess Jue continued to gloat for a while, then thought of something, became worried again, and said, "But, what if he really does this and gets the lottery, does the fourth sister really plan to marry him?" ”

Princess Jun said: "He can't draw the lottery." ”

Princess Jue was puzzled for a moment, then figured it out, pointed at Princess Jun and smiled a long "oh", and said, "I understand, the fourth sister is planning to ......" She didn't finish speaking, and then laughed again "Hahaha" laughed, laughing for a while until her stomach hurt.

Princess Jun instructed Princess Jue again: "We saw Chen Ling in the palace, after you return to the palace, don't tell your father and mother." ”

Princess Jue said: "I know, aren't you just worried that your father and mother will punish Huan'er, don't worry, I won't say it." ”

As a result, when she returned to the palace, Princess Jue turned her head and sued the little prince Huan, and added fuel and vinegar by the way.

After hearing this, the emperor snorted: "Huan'er, this kid, doesn't know how to be intimate and alienated, and he actually helps others to calculate Jun'er." ”

Princess Jue said: "That's it, so Huan'er is really not a beater, and if you don't beat up, you may not be able to do something next time." After he went to the northwest and fought a few battles, he really became more and more bold. As he spoke, he said to the emperor: "But when you punish him, don't tell him that I told you, otherwise he will definitely take revenge on me." ”

The emperor smiled and hugged his little daughter over, touched her head, and said, "Okay, if my father doesn't say it, I said it, but my father said it......" After thinking for a while, he continued: "Just say that it was the little dog who said it." ”

When Princess Jue heard this, she immediately echoed: "Yes, let their master and servant go to the gap." As he spoke, he secretly became proud.

The emperor's little daughter who coaxed for a long time finally coaxed Princess Jue away happily, and then touched her forehead and complained to Lin Yan: "These children are all causing chaos. ”

Lin Yan was shaking a rattle to coax Prince Xu to play, and couldn't help but smile when she heard this.

Prince Xu's eyes were attracted by the rattle for a moment, and then he looked away and stretched out his hand to the emperor to hug him.

The emperor stretched out his hand and hugged him, and said, "Chen Ling, this person has too many thoughts, and he dares to pick up Huan'er's idea of helping him fight Jun'er." ”

Lin Yan felt that this might not be Chen Ling's idea, and said, "It's not that you don't know your son's temperament, where is your son who will be at the mercy of others." If he really has this ability and can persuade Huan'er to help him, it can be regarded as his ability. ”

The emperor snorted, "I think he is just blackmailing with grace." ”

Lin Yan said: "Chen Ling's background is not good, but you don't have preconceived ideas and think too badly of him." ”

The emperor did not speak.

When the emperor took Prince Xu to take a walk and bask in the sun, Lin Yan asked Mu Zhi to inquire about what Princess Jun was doing.

After inquiring, Mu Zhi came back and said to Lin Yan: "Her Royal Highness the Fourth Princess asked the presiding officer of Qingtan Temple to ask for a sign when General Chen Xiao went to ask for a signature, and asked him to take away all the signatures inside. ”

Mu Zhi was a little strange after hearing this, and asked Lin Yan: "Do you say that these four princesses have thoughts or no thoughts about General Chen?" If he doesn't have a heart, why give him such a chance, and if he has a heart, why let people take away all the signatures. Could it be that the fourth princess is really just trying to tease General Chen. ”

Lin Yan listened and said with a smile: "Think about Jun'er's temperament, where is the person who would be idle to do this kind of thing, if Jue'er is still about the same." ”

Mu Zhi said: "That Niangniang means ......"

Lin Yan said: "She just wants to try Chen Ling to see if he is sincere to her and whether he will be honest." "It's always when you get into it, so you try it.

Mu Zhi nodded as he listened, and let out an "oh".

Lin Yan said: "Jun'er's temperament is quieter than Rui'er and Jue'er's, but her mind is more sensitive and careful than Rui'er and Jue'er. ”

That's fine, and she doesn't need to go through a lot of effort to try Chen Ling. If Jun'er really likes him, she also hopes to fulfill her daughter.

Lin Yan sighed again: "It seems that this palace has to prepare to marry her daughter again." ”

On the second day, Chen Ling really went to Qingtan Temple.

Starting from the first stone step under Qingtan Temple, kneel up one stone step at a time, and kowtow to each stone step.

In the weather in mid-May, the sun during the day was actually very hot, and Chen Ling was already sweating after a while.

Qingtan Temple incense is vigorous, there are many pilgrims who come and go, although there are also people who kneel on the stone steps like him, but they are all twenty or thirty steps to kneel once, but there is no kneeling on every stone step like him.

Such a pious pilgrim naturally attracted the attention and discussion of others, and even some people saw him like this, and they also followed suit, but unfortunately after all, they lacked physical strength, and gave up after kneeling less than halfway.

Chen Ling didn't care about the discussion of others, and still knelt down step by step religiously.

The little prince Huan took Xiao Huang to look at him in the carriage below, and couldn't help but hug Xiao Huang and sighed to him: "I didn't expect the fourth sister, who is usually gentle and gentle and quiet, to be so ruthless." ”

Xiao Huang flicked his tail, as if agreeing with him.

However, since Duke Jun mainly tested Chen Ling's sincerity, it was not easy for the little prince Huan to help him.

Watching him kowtow one stone step after another, and looking at it was really unbearable, and finally he simply came out of sight and went home first.

Even a person like Chen Ling, who has been practicing martial arts all the year round and lives in such a difficult environment as the border pass, knelt up on 1,224 stone steps, which was also very physically exhausting.

By the time he knelt up the 1,244 stone steps, he was already a little pale, his body was dehydrated, and even his legs were shaking, and his knees didn't look like his own, so he couldn't stand up.

The abbot of the temple was already waiting for him at the door, watching him kneel up step by step, and after he knelt down the last staircase, he hurriedly asked the little master next to him to help him up.

The abbot folded his hands with some admiration, said "Amitabha", and said: "The donor is so sincere, it really makes the old man admire." ”

Then he asked the little master next to him to bring him a bowl of water, and said, "The donor should drink a bowl of water first." ”

Chen Ling was really thirsty, so he took the water and drank it after a few grunts.

The abbot asked again: "The benefactor knelt down sincerely all the way, and did not know what to ask for?" ”

Chen Ling said: "I should promise a girl, sincerely kneel down the 1,224 stone steps under the Qingtan Temple, and then ask for a marriage sign for us." Master, I don't know where to ask for the marriage sign of your temple. ”

The abbot said: "The Bodhisattva must be able to see the sincerity of the donor, please come with me." ”

Chen Ling naturally didn't ask for a lottery, he asked for a winning lottery.

Chen Ling knelt on the ground, looking at the signature in his hand, he was stunned for a long time and did not react, huge disappointment and despair fell from his heart, making his eyes black, as if he couldn't see the front clearly.

The little master next to him saw that he was pitiful, and couldn't help but say: "Donor, you might as well ask for another one, and the next one is signed." ”

Chen Ling sighed, his eyes were slightly moist, but he shook his head and said, "No need, asking for another one will violate the agreement between us, maybe it is indeed my lack of luck." ”

After Chen Ling returned from Qingtan Temple, he handed over the sign he had asked for to Prince Huan. The little prince looked at Chen Ling, who was pale, sighed, and then entered the palace and put the sign in front of Princess Jun.

Princess Jun looked at the lottery and stayed for a while before asking, "How is he?" ”

The little prince said: "What can I do, I can't die after all, but I am seriously dehydrated, and I am desperate, and my knee is also injured, and I need to recuperate for a long time." The little prince Huan thought about it, and by the way, he was not afraid to make Chen Ling more serious, and said: "The imperial doctor said that his two knees may fall into gout in the future, and they will probably hurt for a while on a rainy day." After speaking, he squinted his eyes and quietly glanced at Princess Jun.

The little prince Huan thought that Princess Jun still cared about a few words, or regretted a little, but Princess Jun just nodded and said, "I know!" ”

The little prince Huan was a little upset for his brother, and couldn't help but say to Princess Jun: "You are really ruthless!" After saying that, he stomped his feet. Went out of her room.

As a result, as soon as he left the main hall, he was stopped by the emperor who was standing outside.

The little prince Huan was startled, and then smiled at the emperor and shouted: "Father! ”

The emperor looked at him and said, "Let's go, my father will settle accounts with you." After saying that, he left first with his hands behind his back.

The little prince looked at his figure from behind, shook his hair, and snorted lightly, settle the accounts, who is afraid of whom.

After saying that, he strode with the emperor.
