It has been half a month since Chen Xian left, and it should be Nanzhao after calculating the day. Xiao Mingyue was a little depressed every day, and one day when she was learning embroidery with Concubine Hu, Concubine Hu saw that she was distracted, so she smiled and said, "Are you worried about Chen Xian?" ”

Xiao Mingyue said duplicitously: "No, it's just that I've been bored lately." ”

Concubine Hu couldn't see the little girl's thoughts, so she proposed: "It's better to go to Jiming Temple with my aunt to pray for blessings, and pray for Chen Xian to win the battle and return triumphantly." Hearing that she could seek peace for Chen Xian, Xiao Mingyue was also very happy to go with her aunt, so she bathed and changed clothes and prepared some things after she went back.

On the second day, I got up early, went to my aunt's room and had breakfast, and then set off for Jiming Temple. The temple is outside the city, there are many people along the way, and at the feet of the Son of Heaven, I have seen a lot of knowledge. Seeing such a large guard of honor, the people also got out of the way.

After a while, they arrived at Jiming Temple. The abbot of the temple saw that Concubine Hu in the palace was coming, so he naturally greeted him in person, and did not dare to slack off, so he asked a few monks to prepare a clean room for Concubine Hu and others to rest. On the other hand, he had to have the main hall empty.

Concubine Hu hurriedly stopped: "Since everyone has come all the way to pray for their relatives, there is no need to drive them away." The abbot listened and hurriedly agreed. He still let everyone burn incense and worship the Buddha. In the evening, the temple was emptied ahead of schedule. Concubine Hu and Xiao Mingyue, under the leadership of the abbot, worshiped the Buddha.

Xiao Mingyue prayed to the Buddha in her heart: "I wish my father and mother are healthy, I wish Brother Chen will return triumphantly, and I wish that the world will be peaceful, and there will be no war in the four seas from now on." After reading it, he sincerely bowed to the Buddha three times. Concubine Hu also donated a lot of incense money to the temple. After worshipping the Buddha, Concubine Hu chatted with the abbot.

Xiao Mingyue felt bored, so she wandered around with amber. Before I knew it, I was in the backyard. I saw that there were many osmanthus trees planted in the backyard, which were densely tied with red cloth strips, and when I looked closely, each cloth strip was full of words, some were seeking marriage, some were seeking wealth, some were trying to get rid of illness and eliminating disasters, and some were asking for children. When Xiao Mingyue saw it, she asked Amber to bring two new red cloths from the side, one for each person, and wrote their own wishes. After writing, they tied it to the osmanthus tree together.

Xiao Mingyue smiled at Amber and said, "Amber, what are you asking for?" Amber blushed and said, "The slave didn't write anything. ”

Xiao Mingyue saw Amber's face flushed, so she guessed it. said: "You must be asking for marriage, right?" ”

Amber was guessed right, so she said embarrassedly, "Not yet." What is the young lady asking for? ”

Xiao Mingyue looked at the red cloth strip hanging on the tree and said, "What I want is that you can marry as soon as possible." ”

Amber said anxiously after hearing this: "Miss, you don't want me anymore." Xiao Mingyue said with a smile: "The female university is not staying." ”

As he spoke, an empty wine jar rolled out from behind the tree, and a "clang" startled the two of them.

Amber said with some fear: "Miss, there should be no ghosts." After speaking, he pulled Xiao Mingyue back.

Xiao Mingyue walked forward curiously and said to Amber: "Don't be afraid, the Buddha Gate is heavy, there are no ghosts. ”

Amber was worried about Miss, so she followed.

Step by step behind the osmanthus tree, I saw an unkempt and sloppy old man, holding a wine bottle in one hand and squinting behind the tree. It was as if he had passed out.

"Miss, this person must be dead." Amber said scaredly.

Xiao Mingyue listened, looked carefully, and found that the old man was still panting. Then he shouted, "Go out of the water!" Let's go to the water! Run! ”

When the old man heard this, he immediately opened his eyes, sat up, and was about to run away. Seeing Xiao Mingyue and Amber smiling at him, he looked at the two of them in surprise and said, "Two girls, why are you teasing my old man?" ”

Xiao Mingyue half-squatted down and said, "I saw that your old man was drinking and drinking, and he was about to pass out, so I kindly woke you up." ”

After hearing this, the old man smiled and said, "It's good to drink to death, so you don't have to worry about those troubles." ”

Xiao Mingyue asked curiously: "At such an old age, so negative, are your children not filial?" ”

The old man listened and took another sip of wine, glanced at Xiao Mingyue and said, "I have no children and no daughters, and I am alone. ”

Xiao Mingyue listened, and asked again: "So pitiful, so you live in the backyard of this temple?" ”

The old man listened and nodded in response. looked at Xiao Mingyue carefully and said, "The girl has a good face, I am interested today, how about a tael of silver for the girl?" ”

Amber said in surprise: "Your old man is too dark, a tael of silver, why don't you go and rob the money?" ”

The old man glanced at it and said disdainfully: "If you don't believe it, forget it, there is no such shop in this village." ”

Xiao Mingyue listened, motioned to Amber to stop talking, and said with a smile: "The old man knows fortune telling? ”

When the old man heard this, he said proudly: "That's natural, I want Xiao Yan to ...... at the beginning." At this point, something suddenly came to mind, and he stopped talking. took out a bucket from the cloth pocket on the side, let Xiao Mingyue shake it first, and then asked Xiao Mingyue about her birthday. I babbled it two or three times. Then he said with admiration: "Girl, you have a great responsibility in this life. He looked at the lot drawn by Xiao Mingyue again, and said with a smile: "The girl just asked for marriage." ”

Xiao Mingyue said a little embarrassed: "Yes." ”

The old man smiled: "The signing document says that the two biggest peach blossoms in the girl's life have appeared, and in Lao Suo's opinion, these two peach blossoms are growing and will be more lush, girl, what a blessing." ”

Amber listened to it on the sidelines, and said angrily: "You old man is so old, how can you talk nonsense, you dare to ruin the reputation of my young lady." ”

Xiao Mingyue was surprised: "How can there be two peach blossoms?" Could the old man have miscalculated? ”

The old man laughed: "There will be no mistake, these two peach blossoms have already appeared, and they are still seeds planted by the girl herself." One is indispensable, and it seems that providence is so. ”

With that, he stretched out his hand and asked for money.

Xiao Mingyue was puzzled while motioning to Amber to give the silver to the old man.

The old man took the silver and smiled. Then he said, "Thank you, girl, buy wine!" With that, he turned and left.

Xiao Mingyue looked at the old man's back and asked, "Dare to ask the old man's name?" ”

The old man turned around and smiled, and said, "The old man is not enough to worry about his name, you and I are destined, and the girl will know it in the future." ”

As he spoke, he ran away.

Amber said anxiously: "Miss, the slave must be a liar when you see this old man, how can ordinary fortune tellers ask for so much money, and what is he calculating?" I even said that the young lady would have ......"

"Okay, don't talk about it, don't talk about today's events. Just think of it as a little funding for the old man, he has no children and no daughters, and he has no support. ”

After saying that, he and Amber quietly returned to the room, because they were going to stay in the temple for two days, so they helped their aunt copy the Buddhist scriptures together.

Two days later, when leaving, Xiao Mingyue asked the abbot to transfer some fragments of silver to the old man in the backyard, and left with his aunt and others.

Northern wei dynasty.

Ubun House.

From time to time, Yu Wendi asked his subordinates to check if there were any letters from Nanliang. On the one hand, I regretted that I came back too early, and I wanted to leave home again. And Yuwenxin has already asked people to strictly guard Yuwendi, supervising and urging reading day and night.

On this day, Yu Wenxin came to Yu Wendi's room and saw Yu Wendi reading "Zizhi Tongjian". Then he said happily: "Now my son has finally opened his mind and started reading." ”

Yu Wendi leaned on the desk and said helplessly: "You put so many people outside to guard me, I can't escape even if I put my wings." ”

Yu Wenxin said with a smile: "I have worked hard for my father, I just ask you to understand one or two." When I came back this time, I have grown a lot. ”

Yu Wendi said with a smile: "This time, I was taught by a little girl. ”

After hearing this, Yuwenxin said curiously: "Oh? Many of the things spoken for a father are not as effective as those of a little girl. I don't know who the fairy girl is? ”

Yu Wendi thought of Xiao Mingyue, and the corners of his mouth raised: "Immortal Gu said, if you compete with Your Majesty and the Queen Mother right now, there is a chance that you will lose." I'm just reading more books to help you figure out how to win. ”

Yu Wenxin was even more shocked when he heard it: "I don't know whose daughter is Nanliang?" Since he can say this, it is enough to prove that he is a genius who governs the world. If you like it, Dad will ask for a kiss! ”

Yu Wendi glanced at his father and said, "I want to keep this secret, I like her but not because of her talent, and I don't bother my father about courting marriage." ”

Yuwen Xin saw that his son refused to say more, so he didn't ask more, and he was already very happy to see that his son was willing to study, and he didn't mention the aggravation of his illness to his son.

After Xiao Mingyue returned to the palace, she thought about the words of the fortune teller. Thinking of how it was possible for him to have two marriages at the same time, he simply thought that the fortune teller was talking nonsense.
