The environment of the spiritual temple is quiet, and living here can also purify the heart and nourish the mind. After everything was settled, Qiu Luoxue began to wander around the temple. The pattern of this temple is peculiar, with water and stones surrounding the entire temple.

In the part where the house and the courtyard want to be connected, a road tens of centimeters wide is vacated, and water flows underneath. From the water rose a very high stone pillar, two in a row, just enough for people to walk from the courtyard to the house.

In addition to water, another special feature is stone. Although there are stones in other places, there are especially many stones in the Ling Temple, except for the main road from the temple is a bluestone slab, the others are paved with stones. All of these stones are round pebbles, so you won't be embarrassed to walk on them. And these stones are similar in size and shape, and they look neat.

Walking on the gravel paved road, the road is lined with greenery, and the ginkgo trees are mostly ginkgo trees, which have just grown new leaves in spring and look full of life. There are also a lot of green grass growing on the ground on both sides of the road. The grass grows unevenly and unevenly, but it also looks good and has another beauty.

In addition, there are many stone carvings, all kinds, which are very peculiar. Qiu Luoxue walked around in the spirit temple, feeling very novel. Walking in the temple with fresh air made my body and mind feel much more relaxed.

Qiu Luoxue's favorite design is the one from the courtyard to the house, where water passes underneath. The first time she saw such a design, she felt very novel, and she walked back and forth many times, playing happily like a child who had discovered something new.

Nie Yuan sat on a stool in the courtyard and looked at Qiu Luoxue who was happily playing. Her smile is always so contagious that people can't help but be happy with her. Under the spring sun, Qiu Luoxue smiled happily, with a bright smile, and Nie Yuan felt as if the smile was calling him.

Under the trend of Qiu Luoxue's smile, Nie Yuan went to find Qiu Luoxue on a whim. When Qiu Luoxue happily walked past the stone pillar on the water, Nie Yuan got up and went over. When Qiu Luoxue turned around and jumped onto the stone pillar again, Nie Yuan also went to the stone pillar from the other side.

Qiu Luoxue didn't notice that Nie Yuan came over suddenly, and almost fell backwards in a hurry, but Nie Yuan grabbed Qiu Luoxue's arm in time when he saw this. In this way, the distance between the two became very close, almost hugging each other.

The distance of "plop ~ plop ......" made Nie Yuan's heart beat strongly.

Qiu Luoxue was also panicked for a while, and it took a while for her to react and ask, "Why did you come here suddenly?"

"I want to meet you." Nie Yuan looked into Qiu Luoxue's eyes and replied.

I want to meet you, Qiu Luoxue felt that this sentence was also very romantic, but she didn't expect such words to come out of Nie Yuan's mouth, and she was very surprised for a while.

But Nie Yuan said such a thing, which made Qiu Luoxue have to consider another question, that is, was Nie Yuan's kindness to her really because of Xia Zimo's order? Thinking about it like this, Qiu Luoxue felt that Nie Yuan made this move because he liked her?

If that's the case, what to do? She had never thought of Nie Yuan differently, and she had already given her heart to others, but was that too unfair to Nie Yuan?

"Nie Shishi, let me ask you a question......" Qiu Luoxue looked at Nie Yuan and said.

Nie Yuan didn't speak, but waited for Qiu Luoxue to continue to ask that question.

"Perhaps...... Do you like me? Qiu Luoxue asked.

Nie Yuan never thought that Qiu Luoxue would ask this question, and he didn't know how to answer for a while. In this gap of thinking, Qiu Luoxue did not speak again, and maintained the posture and distance from Nie Yuan just now.

Nie Yuan thought for a long time, of course he wanted to say: Yes, I like you, what about you? Like me? But he couldn't say that, he knew that Qiu Luoxue wouldn't and couldn't be with him, and he could probably see that the person Qiu Luoxue liked was Xia Zimo. After saying this, it can only make Qiu Luoxue embarrassed. And after that, they won't be able to get along as naturally as they do now.

"I don't like you." Nie Yuan looked at Qiu Luoxue and said, although he said so, he still looked at Qiu Luoxue affectionately, and traced her appearance little by little in his heart.

After saying this, Nie Yuan let go of Qiu Luoxue's arm, took a step back, left the stone pillar, and then turned around to leave Qiu Luoxue's courtyard.

The only lie I've ever told in my life is "I don't like you". When he turned to leave, Nie Yuan thought in his heart.

Qiu Luoxue looked at the back of Nie Yuan leaving, and didn't know why she saw loneliness and loneliness in that back. She thought: Maybe loneliness and loneliness are the feelings that Nie Shi gives people.

"Since you don't like me, I wish you to find someone you like and let her drive away the loneliness and loneliness in you." Qiu Luoxue looked at Nie Yuan's back and said.

And what Nie Yuan wants to answer is: There will be no such person, because my love is given to you.

After spending the night in the Ling Temple, the next day was the day for the Qiu clan to worship their ancestors. On this day, there was no one else in the spiritual temple except for the monk and the people brought by Qiu Luoxue, and it was completely closed.

The reason why this is so is because of Qiu Luoxue's identity. When worshipping her ancestors, she has to appear as a daughter before the ancestors are ranked. Because the etiquette of men and women is also different, it is necessary to change into women's clothing on this day.

Early in the morning, Allure and the others went to Qiu Luoxue's room to call her, familiarize her with the dress, and take out white women's clothes for her to change into. When worshipping ancestors, in order to show respect, white clothing is worn. Today's Qiu Luoxue's dress does not bring too many decorations, and it is mainly simple, but even if it is a simple dress, it is difficult to hide the beautiful face of Qiu Luoxue.

After freshening up and dressing up, Qiu Luoxue went out to the ancestral hall. Nie Yuan was already waiting for Qiu Luoxue outside the door. Although he had already seen Qiu Luoxue's female appearance, Nie Yuan couldn't help but be surprised.

"I, I want to tell the world about Luo Xue's daughter, only then can she become my queen." Xia Zimo said to Xia Ziyan.

The two brothers were playing chess in the Chunhui Pavilion, enjoying the beautiful scenery of spring by the way. Xia Zimo's words were very abrupt, which made Xia Ziyan a little shocked.

"So suddenly?" Xia Ziyan said.

"I've been thinking about it for a long time, and I'm not going to wait any longer." Xia Zimo said.

Xia Ziyan knew that sooner or later there would be such a day, although he had told himself many times, he would inevitably be a little sad. However, as Xia Zimo's good brother, in addition to being sad about losing his beloved woman, more than that, he has to think about the Xia family's country.

"But the Qiu clan has no descendants, if she recovers Luo Xue's daughter, she will definitely not be able to be the prime minister again, what about the prime minister?" Xia Ziyan asked.

Xia Zimo thought for a while and replied, "I think it seems that it's time to change the rules of the Qiu clan as prime minister."

"Even if you want to change it, now is not the time." Xia Ziyan said, "Uncle Chen has been secretly co-opting the forces of the DPRK and China, and the reason why he did not move the position of prime minister is because the ancestors stipulated that no one can change it. If the rule of Qiu being the prime minister is abolished, he will inevitably stretch his hand to the position of prime minister, and it will be difficult for the imperial brother to control the court situation at that time. ”

Xia Ziyan's words were very reasonable, and Xia Zimo could also listen to them. It's just like this, Qiu Luoxue's identity as her daughter, I don't know when she will be able to announce the world. She can neither wear women's clothes, nor can she become Xia Zimo's queen.

"The Qiu clan, is there really no other heir?" Xia Zimo muttered, he was thinking that if he didn't have an heir, could he create an heir? This matter needs to be considered in the long term.

Thinking about this, Xia Zimo sighed again and said, "It's really ruthless that my father left this kind of court situation to us."

"No matter what, Uncle Chen is also the brother of his father, he just encircled Uncle Chen in the place back then, and he did his duty." Xia Ziyan said.

"His father treated him as a brother, but he didn't treat his father as a brother, he actually poisoned his father." Speaking of this, Xia Zimo was angry, but unfortunately there was no evidence, King Chen had a lot of connections in the capital and the court, so he couldn't make it clear at once, otherwise he really wanted to cut off King Chen's head personally.

Qiu Luoxue followed the abbot of the Ling Temple into the ancestral hall. The abbot was instructed by the former emperor and the former prime minister not to tell Qiu Luoxue's identity to the outside. In addition to the two of them, there are also Nie Yuan and Qiu Luoxue's four maids. When Qiu Luoxue came out in women's clothes, the rest of the monks were all chanting in the main hall to prevent them from knowing Qiu Luoxue's identity.

Entering the ancestral hall, Qiu Luoxue saw that there were large and small rankings enshrined inside, all of which were members of the Qiu clan, of which the first one was the ranking of Qiu Luoxue's parents, and the back was arranged in turn according to the size of the merit.

Looking at the rankings in the room, you can know that the Qiu family is also a big family, but I don't know why, she is the only girl left in her generation.

Qiu Luoxue knelt down on the futon in the ancestral hall and kowtowed three times to the ancestral ranking. The process should be very religious, and the movements should be very standard.

"The ancestors of the Qiu clan went up again, and the little girl Qiu Luoxue came to worship, hoping that the ancestors would bless the lintel of the Qiu clan forever and carry it forward. The people of the Wang clan blessed the little girl's female identity from being exposed, and everything went well in the court, guarding the Xia family and the glory of the Qiu family. "Worshipping ancestors is actually praying for the ancestors to bless future generations, so Qiu Luoxue said this, and after she finished speaking, she kowtowed three more times.

After kowtowing, Qiu Luoxue got up, picked up the incense from the table, lit the incense, and inserted it into the incense burner in front of her.

After doing this, you have to listen to the abbot chant the sutras for the ancestors, and then clean the ancestral hall and wipe the ancestors' ranking. But before Qiu Luoxue did this, something unexpected developed.

"Dong" There was a sound outside the house, this is absolutely impossible, in order not to expose Qiu Luoxue's identity, the scene has been cleared here, so where did the sound come from just now? Whose voice is it? What kind of impact does it have on Qiu Luoxue?
