"Gathering like wind and rain and dissipating like smoke, there is no return period in this life." Bai Jinyu looked at Yuhe's tablet and groaned faintly, and the scene when she first saw her in Fishtail Mountain flashed in her mind.

Feng Chen lowered his eyes and walked from Bai Jinyu's side to the offering platform. Only then did Bai Jinyu notice that he was holding a pure white peony in his hand.

A rich flower, white and fat, as white as jade.

Bai Jinyu recognized that this was the strange plant in the purple peony in the palace, and it was the white peony that made Yan Luo fuss and said that she had "waited for many years to bloom" on the day she entered the palace.

"If it weren't for the Chang'an epidemic three years ago, Yuhe would be twenty-two now." Feng Chen's slender fingers took a net bottle on the offering table, and gently inserted the green stem of the peony into it.

In the year of the Great Epidemic in Chang'an, more than 10,000 people died.

Bai Jinyu had also heard of this appalling epidemic in Duoyue, but he never expected that Yuhe would also die of this disease.

The flowers of the clean and snowy are like a graceful and luxurious beauty of the country, sleeping quietly on the net bottle.

Bai Jinyu looked at Feng Chen slowly, his eyes showed a faint comfort, and the flickering candlelight was reflected in his clear eyes, as deep and transparent as amber.

He turned around, looked at her with a dignified eyebrow, and said gently: "When the mountain has a heavy peak, there is a time when the water returns to the river." It may be later, but I believe that one day you will remember what you have forgotten. ”

A warm current poured out from the bottom of her heart, and at the same time, a little guilt welled up in her heart, she didn't forget, she remembered everything, and she really couldn't stand the expectations of the people in front of her.

"Okay," Feng Chen said, "It's not early, I'll send you back to your room to bed." ”

"Okay." Bai Jinyu turned around, solemnly bowed to Yuhe's tablet three times again, and said softly before leaving: "Yuhe, I'll come to see you again." ”

Feng Chen silently watched her actions and stood silent.

Bai Jinyu was led by Fengchen, and walked around the winding courtyard in the silence of the night, and returned to Su Lihua's courtyard, the two of them had nothing to say all the way, they seemed to have something to say, but they didn't know how to say it.

Su Lihua's room had two little maidservants waiting anxiously at the door, and when she saw Bai Jinyu coming back, her sad face immediately turned to joy and rushed up to greet her.

The two little maidservants saluted Feng Chen and Bai Jinyu, and one said: "Where did Niang Niang go, I scared the slave to death, I can't find you anywhere!" ”

Bai Jinyu looked at Feng Chen, pushed the little maid and replied: "You said that you are so exaggerated and scared Your Highness, I just can't sleep and enjoy the moon!" ”

Bai Jinyu walked forward by herself, but she couldn't pull the little maid, turned around, and saw her standing at the door Feng Chen respectfully asked, "Your Highness...... Are you going to bed tonight? ”

Bai Jinyu was stunned and choked firmly. She looked at Feng Chen in a daze, only to see him standing outside the threshold, looking at her, as if waiting for her to respond.

Bai Jinyu sweated in his head, looked at the middle of the night, and looked at the two maidservants present...... She said politely, "Uh...... Your Highness, why don't you be here...... Will it be a moment? ”

After a moment, Feng Chen said, "Really? ”

"Ah...... Ha. Bai Jinyu choked, feeling that this question had to be answered carefully.

As soon as she took a breath, Feng Chen said: "I was about to tell you that the Holy Lord issued an imperial decree today, and the whole house will need to fast for three days from tomorrow, and after three days, you will go with me to leave the country to welcome His Royal Highness the Crown Prince back to Beijing." ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is back in Beijing? Departure view? Bai Jinyuqi said: "Why ......" She stopped her mouth and almost asked where the prince returned to Beijing, and why did he go to the Taoist temple as soon as he returned to Beijing? Could it be that the prince became a monk and became a Taoist priest?

If these questions are asked, she is too unlike Su Lihua, Su Lihua has lived in Chang'an for a long time, how can she not know these things? !

"This time, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince found Daoist Yu Xuanzi, and finally persuaded him to return to the Departure Concept." Fengchen said.

"Oh......" Bai Jinyu nodded his head plausibly, always feeling that he had heard the name Yu Xuanzi somewhere. I thought about it for a while, but I didn't remember it, so I let it go.

She turned to Fengchen and said that she had fasted for three days, and said in her heart: I heard that during this fasting period, husband and wife are not allowed to have sex together. So he hurriedly said with confidence and boldness: "Your Highness, it's too late, don't go, you can rest here!" ”

Feng Chen looked at her, smiled dumbly, and said, "Fasting starts tomorrow, are you sure you want to do this?" ”

Bai Jinyu said without thinking: "But isn't it past now?" ”

Fengchen was asked by her, and when she thought about it, it was really.

Bai Jinyu was really insincere.

"You should rest early, don't make a fuss!" Feng Chen was not annoyed, but showed a conniving expression.

Bai Jinyu doesn't believe in Buddhism or Taoism, he has never fasted when he is so big, the first day is fresh, the second day is okay, and on the third day, he really can't stand it.

After eating eight meals lightly, she finally remembered braised fish when she saw the fish swimming in the flower pond, and thought of pigeon soup when she saw the birds flying in the sky, and her mind was full of delicious food. So when Huang Gu told him that Fengchen had not eaten and fasted for many years in order to encourage her, she was really shocked and her face was broken.

Is this a monk?!

How devout do you have to worship the Tao to go mad and mad to do this?

Bai Jinyu said in his heart: No wonder Fengchen eats alone, eighty percent is afraid of losing people's appetites!

When it was time for dinner, Nell still came to eat with her as before, and when she saw the roasted tofu and fried beans on the table, the big and the young were about to cry.

Bai Jinyu is an adult and has a little self-control, but Nell refused to eat no matter how much she persuaded her, and said that she wanted to learn from her father from time to time.

Bai Jinyu had never been a mother, but she also knew that it was not okay for this child not to eat, so she lied to him: "Your father has not eaten for a long time, he will eat every night now." ”

Nair didn't believe it: "The child has never seen his father have dinner, he has to see it with his own eyes, if his father really eats it, Nair will eat it too!" ”

Bai Jinyu wanted to forget it, but Nell was quite serious and proposed to go to Fengchen to have a look. So Bai Jinyu was forced to go to Liangshan for the first time by a child, and brought food and led Naier to Fengchen's study.

"The mother said that the father would also have dinner, but the child didn't believe it." Nell said straight to the point.

Bai Jinyu laughed with him, took out the dishes in the food box in the same way, spread them on Fengchen's desk, and said, "Yes, Nell also said that he will only eat tonight if he sees your father and you eat." Saying that, Chao Fengchen squeezed his eyes, meaning to ask him to cooperate with the performance.

Feng Chen looked at Bai Jinyu and shook his head.

Bai Jinyu was stunned, so embarrassed, looked at Na'er with a look of verification, and said, "Oh, hehe, your father may have already eaten ......"

Nell tilted her little head and asked Xiang Fengchen, "Has my father already had dinner?" ”

Feng Chen looked at Nell softly, and said sincerely: "Definitely." ”

When Nell wrinkled her eyes slightly and looked at herself, Bai Jinyu instantly tasted what it was to be disgraced and self-ashamed.

Bai Jinyu couldn't help muttering sullenly: "You are really, I'm not afraid that the child will be hungry......

Feng Chen said: "I know. ”

"Then you still ...... Okay, it seems that I can't be with you righteous gentlemen, Nell is now pure-hearted, but I'm afraid that I will be spoiled by me after a long time. ”

Bai Jinyu's eyes looked away, not wanting to look at their father and son, although he felt a little embarrassed, but he felt that he was treated as a donkey's liver and lungs with a good heart.

"Father?"

was feeling uneven in his heart, and suddenly heard a small exclamation from Nair.

Bai Jinyu turned his head, but saw that Feng Chen had already picked up his chopsticks, took a mouthful of rice and put it into his mouth.

"You ......" This made Bai Jinyu embarrassed, she hurriedly stretched out her hand and said, "Your Highness, you ...... You really don't have to force it. ”

Fengchen took a small bite, then changed his chopsticks, grabbed a few beans and handed them to Nelle's small mouth.

Nell opened her big round eyes and looked at Fengchen in surprise, and when she realized that her father was feeding him, she immediately opened her mouth and ate the beans sweetly.

Bai Jinyu was looking at it curiously, and Feng Chen seemed to say casually: "I made a great wish in front of Daode Tianzun, so I have to keep the vows." ”

Bai Jinyu was startled when she heard the snack, and hurriedly stood up and felt offended when she wanted to get started, so she said helplessly: "Then you should vomit quickly!" She looked left and right, grabbed a glass of water and poured it into Fengchen's mouth: "Hurry up, drink more water, and then ...... like this" She opened her mouth wide, and gestured with her two fingers: "Pick it, you can spit it out, hurry up!" ”

Feng Chen pinched the water cup, Nell held the rice in her mouth, and looked at Bai Jinyu.

The three of them looked at each other for a while, and Feng Chen said, "No need, it's fine." ”

Bai Jinyu sat down, a little uneasy in his heart, and asked, "Is it really okay?" What kind of vow did Your Highness make to keep such a heavy vow? ”

Feng Chen's hand paused slightly, and he didn't speak, and Nell began to put up chopsticks and pick up the rice by herself.

Feng Chen didn't tell him, Bai Jinyu thought that this must be a terrible wish, and it was inconvenient to tell anyone, so he didn't pursue it further.

Instead, she asked, "How long will Your Highness keep this vow?" You can't last a lifetime! Is it possible that as long as the wish is fulfilled and the wish is returned, the three meals can be resumed? ”

Feng Chen stopped his hand, cast his eyes on Bai Jinyu, and said bluntly: "This wish I made has been fulfilled. ”

Bai Jinyu said happily: "It's already reached?!" That's great, that's not a sin just now, no wonder it's 'nothing'. Your Highness, you are too honest, you don't have to care about that precept in the future, you eat vegetarian every day, and you don't eat at noon, how can this body stand it in the long run?! ”

Feng Chen raised his head, his eyes flickering slightly: "I'm reluctant." ”

"Reluctantly?"

Feng Chen nodded slightly.

Bai Jinyu couldn't help but be very curious, and asked quietly, "Your Highness, can you tell me what great wish you made?" ”

Feng Chen was silent for a moment and said, "I'll tell you when I have a suitable opportunity in the future!" ”

Having said that, Bai Jinyu was an acquaintance, so he no longer broke the casserole and asked to the end. She thought thoughtfully for a while, and suddenly asked: "Your Highness, where are you asking for a wish, it seems to be very spiritual to hear you say this, and I also want to ask for a wish!" ”

If she can ask for a wish that can make her return to Cuizhu in this life, then she is also willing to take such a vow.

Feng Chen's eyes fluctuated, and he followed: "What do you want?" If I can do it, I can just tell me, and I don't have to ask any gods. His voice was sincere, with a hint of nervousness.

Bai Jinyu's heart is hot, Fengchen, Fengchen...... She thanked in her heart. Yes, there may be no time out of ten things in this world that will not be difficult for Feng Chen, but if he wants to return to Cuizhu, who swore not to fight with the royal family, Feng Chen may not be able to do anything.

What's more, the things she stole from Cuizhu seven years ago are still missing and have not been returned, and Cuizhu has long regarded her as a scum and a traitor...... It's easier said than done to go back to Cuizhu!

So she smiled bitterly and shook her head: "I'm joking, what can I wish for......"

"Departure view."

Feng Chen suddenly told each other.

Bai Jinyu didn't expect Feng Chen's words to turn so abruptly, he was stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise: "Departure view? Is that the view of departure that we are going to tomorrow? ”

"Exactly."

At the moment, Bai Jinyu and Nell had a meal in Fengchen's study, although the food was not a delicacy, but the two of them ate in front of them, unmoved, and she admired it very much.

"That's right," Feng Chen said suddenly: "Tomorrow, my father-in-law will also accompany the saint to the departure view." ”

As soon as Bai Jinyu mentioned it in his heart, he almost blurted out the word "Su", and temporarily changed his words: "I...... Daddy will go tomorrow too? ”

"Hmm."

"Will my mother go?"

"Probably not."

"Oh......" Bai Jinyu's heart fell halfway.
