Three days later, there was a gathering to pray to the gods at the Taoist temple outside the city.

Shen Yan took advantage of the excuse that he wanted to go out of the palace to relax, and invited Xu Jin to go to the Taoist temple to pray for blessings.

Before leaving, she specially changed into an ordinary plain dress, a pale yellow narrow-sleeved skirt with two buttons at the collar, which was neither luxurious nor too simple.

The green silk is combed into a bun and surrounded by a narrow red bun, and a circle of small pearls hangs around it, which is lively and lovely.

Xiaoxing looked at her dress and knew that she was serious, and she was the kind that couldn't be pulled back!

"The ...... of the Emperor"

Shen Yan put his finger against her lips, his eyes narrowed, and he said, "You want to call me Miss!" Don't call me Diji, I'll have to show my stuff when I go out. ”

"Yes, yes, miss!"

Xiao Xing was a little helpless according to her words.

After arranging everything in the palace, the two went out from the side gate of Daming Palace, and as soon as they went out, they saw a pure black carriage waiting in the distance.

"Miss."

Feng Mian has been standing by the carriage with his sword in his hand, and when he saw Shen Yan coming out of the palace gate, he couldn't help frowning, Kang and Emperor Ji's faces were too similar to Yan Niang.

No wonder the city lord said with a cold face that he should not be surprised when he saw the emperor, I see.

Shen Yan saw his somewhat surprised appearance, and naturally knew what he was thinking, so he couldn't help but smile secretly.

"You are Xu Gongzi's guard?"

Shen Yan stood beside the carriage and asked lightly.

"My subordinates are sleepy, and I've seen Miss."

Feng Mian knew that she was the emperor in the palace, so he hurriedly saluted, raised the curtain and let Shen Yan into the carriage.

The carriage was empty.

"Where's your son-in-law?"

"Childe said that for the sake of Miss's reputation, he will wait for you directly outside the city."

Shen Yan couldn't help but be dumbfounded when he heard this, what kind of idea did Xu Jin have in mind?

However, today's game seems to be set up by himself, and Xu Jin is not to blame. Thinking of this, Shen Yan lowered the curtain and lazily rested against the wall of the car.

The carriage swayed to the outside of the city, and Shen Yan got out of the carriage with a big hug wrapped around his body, and he still couldn't help but shiver, it was really a little cold in winter.

As soon as I got out of the carriage, I saw Xu Jin standing in front of the stele not far away.

I saw that Xu Jin was also wearing a plain robe today, with a jade crown and a hairpin inlaid with a faceted crystal stone to fix the hair crown.

"Xu Gongzi has been waiting for a long time."

Shen Yan took a deep breath, walked into him with a sincere smile, and said.

Xu Jin turned to look at her, raised her eyebrows slightly, and her eyes were calm.

Shen Yan's dress today is obviously thoughtful, the dress is elegant, but the two buttons are silver, and the embroidery on the piping is also Su embroidery, which is delicate and smooth.

Her face did not have the arrogance of the palace in the past, her face was sincere, and the more she looked at it, the more weird it became.

Xu Jin looked at the carriage behind her and Fengmian, and said calmly: "Based on the speed and distance of this carriage, Miss came quickly. ”

Shen Yan had seen the two sides of Xu Jin's killing and tenderness, and now he was really in a complicated mood when he saw his defensive and cold appearance.

This person has thousands of faces, and it is difficult to see through.

"Since we've arrived, let's go directly, I heard that the food in the Taoist temple is good, and it's gone if it's late."

Shen Yan smiled and pointed to the mountain road and said.

Xu Jin smiled faintly, glanced back at Feng Mian, and then walked up the stairs with Shen Yan.

The stone steps are long, winding from the foot of the mountain, hidden between the mountains and forests, and most of the winter snow melts at this time, but the mountains are cold, and there is still a lot of snow.

Under the New Year's Festival, there is much more incense than usual in the Taoist temple, and the mountain road is full of people coming and going to pray for blessings, talking and laughing.

Although Shen Yan and Xu Jin are dressed in plain clothes, the two of them have extraordinary bearings, and they are followed by Xiaoxing and Fengmian, and the group walking on the mountain road is really eye-catching.

Xiao Xing felt that he was being stared at, and he was a little hairy, and looked at Shen Yan in front of him.

I saw Shen Yan and Xu Jin walking slowly, talking and laughing indifferently, as if there were only two people between heaven and earth, and they were not affected by the surrounding crowd at all.

Xiao Xing listened to Shen Yan's hypocritical smile and words, and finally believed that Emperor Ji really wanted to seduce the city lord!

Thinking of this, Xiaoxing felt that this mountain road was too long!

Emperor Ji is so dignified, why did she suddenly change her mind and fall in love with this Xu Jin. Let's not talk about anything else, he has a concubine.

Feng Mian followed behind and looked at the two of them, always feeling that something was not right.

These two people spoke like a fox and a poisonous snake, and neither of them took advantage of the verbal exchange, and neither of them had a good mind.

"Xu Gongzi is talented, I didn't think that this poem had such an explanation before."

Shen Yan looked at him with a light smile, his eyes full of admiration.

Xu Jin sneered in his heart, but his face was steady, and he said lightly: "If you can say 'the edge of the sword comes from the sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold', Miss is the real talent." ”

"This poem is not mine, I just said it casually."

Shen Yan said quite calmly, looking at Xu Jin with a pair of apricot eyes.

Walking up the stairs, when the group arrived at the Taoist temple, they saw that the hall was crowded.

It was inconvenient for many people to pray for blessings, so a few people went to the high platform pavilion next to it first.

"I may understand the meaning of the sword given to me by Miss."

Xu Jin sat on the edge of the gazebo, straightened his sleeves, and said as if he had no intention of speaking, as soon as the words fell, Shen Yan looked up at him, but he turned his head to look at the scenery outside the mountain.

"Childe's plum blossom cake is also good."

Shen Yan said with a smile, not retreating at all.

Xu Jin looked back at this time, her eyes were bright and resolute, as if there were endless expectations and beauty hidden in them.

He gave Feng Mian a look, and Feng Mian was about to turn around and pull Xiao Xing away.

"Miss! Miss! ”

Xiao Xing hurriedly shouted, Shen Yan raised his eyes and glanced at Feng Mian, and said coldly: "She is a female official, do the Feng guards plan to drag her away directly?" So rude! ”

Feng Mian let go of the hand that was holding Xiaoxing.

"You go down there and wait for me first."

Shen Yan said lightly to Xiao Xing, and when Xiao Xing saw Shen Yan's affirmative eyes, he gave up struggling and left the high platform with Feng Mian.

On the high platform, only the two people who were thinking about it were left, sitting opposite each other.

"Emperor Ji's seven tricks are exquisite, what is the purpose of coming out of me, you might as well say it directly."

Xu Jin leaned against the stone pillar on the high platform, looked at Shen Yan and said calmly.

His eyes were deep and sharp, and when she looked at it, she felt a little hairy in her heart.

"What did the city lord come to Chang'an for? Offering a clever plaything? I'm afraid it's more than that. Your Majesty has summoned you and Daoist Xuan Wei many times. These days, the limelight of Chang'an is all from Xufu. What am I looking for you, you really don't know? ”

Shen Yan chuckled twice, his eyes were tactful, and he said casually.

The two of them made a move, and they all clicked to the end.

Hearing Shen Yan's words, Xu Jin knew that this emperor was only afraid that he had guessed that his marriage had fallen in the Xu Mansion.

"Your Majesty's will, rewards and punishments are gifts. We can only obey our courtiers. ”

"Actually, I came to you today, and there is one more thing."

Xu Jin looked at her calmly, waiting for her next.

"After I am sealed, I will open a mansion in Chang'an, and at that time, whether you stay in the princess's mansion or return to Jiangcheng, you can do whatever you want, and in the same way, you have no right to manage anything about me."

Shen Yan raised his chin slightly, his eyes were arrogant.
