On the third day of the unveiling of the Beijing trial, Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Tan took all the girls to the Daci'en Temple to burn incense and worship the Buddha.

Located in Jingshan, a suburb of Shangjing, the Great Mercy and Grace Temple is a royal temple with strong incense. Once every three years in the Beijing test, the concubine Niangniang, His Royal Highness the Prince and Princess Yunhua led a group of close ministers to order the women and nobles to also go to pray for the Zhao, and the general people have to wait until the beginning of the time, and wait for the concubine Niangniang Feng to return to the palace before entering.

Several people got up in the early morning, took a vehicle, and traveled all the way to the Great Mercy and Grace Temple. The scenery of Jingshan is beautiful, the Great Ci'en Temple towers on the top of the mountain, the morning sun rises, the green water and green mountains, the Buddha Guangjin Temple. When everyone arrived, there was already a sea of people outside the mountain, and Tan Yin felt strange why so many people came to pray for blessings.

The group was also waiting here, and Tan Yin heard the two girls on the side chatting.

A girl in yellow said, "When did you come?" ”

A woman in red replied, "I'll be there in the middle of nowhere." ”

The girl in yellow said: "I'm almost the same, I came with my brother, he wants to see Princess Yunhua and Miss Zheng Xiangjia, but these noble ladies are all tightly covered, how can you see it." ”

The girl in red nodded and said with a smile: "Then your brother didn't pounce!" ”

"I can't look at these two beauties in the world, there are other beauties to see, don't you see so many scholars and beauties coming today?"

"What other people are, it still depends on Zhenbei Hou." The girl in red said and held her blushing face with both hands and said: "How can you say that there is such a good-looking person in the world, is it a god in the sky, he glanced in my direction, my heart is about to jump out, ah...... I'm not alive anymore. ”

Tan Yin remembered how she looked when she saw Yang Che in Changchun Garden last year, and just from her appearance, she still agreed with the statement Yang Shenxian.

The girl in yellow joked and said: "You have to live, you have to take a good look at the Hou of Zhenbei, it's just that the Hou Ye is high and powerful, we don't even dare to think about it, or Zifei Gongzi is more practical, he doesn't marry the daughter of a wealthy family, maybe we still have a chance!" ”

The girl in red sneered and said: "We, it's just a good time, it's just a nymphomaniac, Master Hou, we can't think about it, does Zifei have a chance!" ”

"How do you say that?"

"You don't know, recently there was a girl in Beijing, who is the pearl of the richest man in Hangzhou, her name is Wang Mingzhu, it is said that this appearance is on par with Princess Yunhua, Miss Zheng Xiang is not comparable, she is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she became famous as soon as she came, and those scholars called her 'Luoshen', and they were proud of writing poems with her!"

"You're saying she's here for these gentlemen?"

"You said that if you don't come early or late, what are you coming for at this time! It's not like you want to choose a son-in-law among high school scholars! “

"Isn't the prince still going to be drafted? Could it be that he went to the East Palace? ”

"What's her identity? Even the level of entering the palace is low. ”

"This background is one thing, the key is not to see the prince's favor, you look at the concubine."

"That's true, but this grade is not high, and this road is even more difficult. This Wang family is casting a wide net, and he will catch any big fish. ”

This is the second time she has heard news of Wang Mingzhu after coming to Beijing, Tan Yin can't help but think of what her father said, "The world is difficult, and it is even more difficult for women, and marriage is about a woman's life, and she must be cautious." ”

After waiting for about an hour, Feng Jia finally came down the mountain, and everyone rushed to the mountain, climbed the mountain for half an hour, and finally arrived at the Great Ci'en Temple.

Mrs. Lu, Mrs. Tan and several girls visited sincerely, blessing the scholars in the family to have a bright future, and blessing the girls to find a good match. Tan Yin bowed and prayed for Li Zheng.

There are many statues of gods in the temple, everyone has to worship one by one, and they have to use vegetarian fasting at noon, and they have to chant scriptures in the afternoon, and it will be too late to go back.

The temple was full of fireworks, thinking that the fritters eaten in the morning were greasy, Tan Yin felt a little dizzy and nauseous after visiting the Daxiong Treasure Palace, and said hello to everyone and went outside to breathe.

......

The front mountain was full of people, noisy and extraordinary, Tan Yin walked to the back mountain, the empty mountain was silent, and there was no one to live.

Climb down the stairs, the green shade on both sides, from time to time there are a few bird calls, and the birdsong mountain is more than quiet. After walking for a while, I heard the sound of gurgling water, which should be a mountain stream.

After walking for a while, I saw a small stream, and the side of the stream was full of rocks and weeds. I went down to the stream, took out a handkerchief, wiped my face after soaking it, breathed the fresh air in the mountains, enjoyed the beautiful scenery in the mountains, and felt dizzy and nauseous a lot.

After a while, I heard the sound of gentle footsteps on the plank road opposite the stream, and when I looked up, a person walked from the tree-lined path in the mountains, caught off guard, and the two looked at each other, Tan Yin was shocked, it was Yang Che, the Hou of Zhenbei.

Stunned, I heard Yang Che say: "The handkerchief has fallen off!" ”

Tan Yin came back to her senses and saw that the handkerchief was going down the stream, and the stream was stacked and waterfallen, and it was about to flow to a wide and deep pool in an instant. The handkerchief was embroidered by Yanya, Tan Yin liked it very much, seeing the handkerchief flowing away, she hurriedly jumped on the stone by the stream, and went downstream to fish, suddenly saw the figure in front of her flash, and after a while, the handkerchief was picked up, Yang Che walked slowly and handed the handkerchief to her.

Tan Yin embarrassedly took the handkerchief and thanked him, this unexpected episode made the two feel much less strange.

The sun shines on the stream, shining with golden light; The breeze blows through the treetops, and the shadows of the trees on the stream are swaying.

Yang Che looked at the girl in front of him, "I haven't seen you for half a year, you're okay." ”

The scenery of the lake and the mountains, such as the beautiful scenery, are only reduced to the background of this person.

"Very good."

"When did you come to Beijing?"

"It's been more than a month."

"But I'm still used to the climate and food in Beijing."

"Except for the weather being a little dry, everything else was fine."

Tan Yin suddenly thought that day Yanting said that he had met the Xu family brothers in Xianpinju, Yang Che was also there at the time, and said: "By the way, I went to Xianpinju that day, and I heard my eldest cousin say that you are also there, you don't know my eldest cousin, his name is Gao Yanting, he is the one who went to see you with the prince of Jingning Hou, and the other Lu Yin is also my cousin." ”

Yang Che smiled and nodded, "I know, is the meat of Xianpinju delicious?" ”

When did he know about the two cousins? Tan Yinhu was suspicious, maybe it was just a polite remark.

Tan Yin replied: "It's delicious, I didn't expect beef and mutton to be eaten like this, especially the snow cow, which melts in your mouth, and the wine is also delicious." ”

Looking at her expression, I can't wait to sit in the immortal residence at this moment and feast, Yang Che laughed out loud, "There are many places in Shangjing that are similar to the immortal residence, you can taste it well." ”

Yang Che was dressed in a crimson official uniform today, wearing a lacquered gauze hat, and smiling in a fairy manner, Tan Yin could hardly look directly, and said with a slight tilt of his head: "Shangjing is a good place, I really want to visit more." ”

"The noble lady in Beijing leads the national trend, rouge gouache shops, jewelry shops, cloth villages, etc., which are rare in the world, and more on all kinds of people, etc., Shangjing is full of the world's customs, and you will slowly experience it in the future!"

Shangjing, the people of Jokhang say that it is the capital of heaven! I also think that this person knows so much about women's things, and he is really a frequent visitor to the Qinglou, and I heard that there are a few poems between the flowers that are quite famous.

Yang Che continued: "How long is the girl going to stay in Beijing this time? ”

Tan Yin thought for a while and said, "I don't know, it's going to take a while!" ”

Yang Che nodded knowingly, "What do you think of Shangjing?" ”

"The capital of the Son of Heaven is majestic and majestic, which is very different from the south."

"Do you like it?"

"The world says that Shangjing is the greatest city in the world, you can meet people you have never met, see things you have never seen, eat delicious food that you have never tasted, and drink wine that you have never tasted, and I have already tasted the last two, and I have not yet encountered the first two."

Yang Che restrained his expression, with a hint of playfulness, "People say that Shangjing is a place that loves you and wants you to live, hates you and wants you to die. ”

Tan Yin looked at him puzzled, Yang Che smiled, "You'll know later." ”

"What about you?" Tan Yin looked at the man in front of him in his prime, waking up to control the power of the world, drunk and lying on the knees of the beauty.

"Born and raised in Si, like it or not......" Yang Che looked at Tan Yin's eyes and laughed self-deprecatingly: "I never thought about this question." ”

Thinking of his complicated life experience, bumpy life and all kinds of scandal anecdotes, although this person is in a high position, but he is not as gloomy and vicious as the outside world rumored, and his temperament is perverse, Tan Yin can't help but feel a little sympathy in her heart.

"When you went to Hangzhou last year, did you think there was anything delicious?" Tan Yin diverted the topic.

Yang Che raised his eyebrows, "You said that the beef and mutton in Beijing are delicious, but I can't forget the Hangzhou meat, and the thoughts of the perch are really appropriate." ”

"I still like Taihu Sanbai, I can't forget it anywhere." Tan Yin said with a smile.

Yang Che smiled and said: "The most beautiful is your hometown, you came to incense today?" ”

"Well, come with your family."

"Have you drawn a lot, the lottery of the Great Mercy and Grace Temple is very effective."

"Really?"

Yang Che smiled and said, "Especially the marriage sign." ”

Tan Yin was a little embarrassed, but she was not thin-skinned, but she was also embarrassed to continue the topic, "You also came over to offer incense?" ”

"I'll accompany the nobles in the palace."

Tan Yin knew that it was the noble concubine and Her Royal Highness the princess, and asked suspiciously: "The noble man has already left, why didn't you accompany him?" ”

Yang Che said half-seriously and half-jokingly: "I wonder if I will meet you." ”

Tan Yin reacted after a while, and her face turned red!

Yang Che looked at Tan Yin's slightly uneasy eyes, and immediately said, "Just kidding, you won't take it seriously!" ”

Tan Yin was slightly angry, "Your joke is not funny at all." ”

Yang Che hurriedly said: "It's me who is abrupt, and Miss Tan forgives." ”

Feeling as if she was making a bit of a fuss, Tan Yin was a little cold, "Master Hou is polite." ”

Yang Che said: "The girl has a life-saving grace for me, and she doesn't want to be reciprocated by me, during the period in Beijing, if you don't dislike it, I want to make an east banquet to invite the girl." ”

Yang Che is famous, Tan Yin doesn't want to have more rights and wrongs, so she politely refused: "I live with my family, and it is not very convenient to enter and exit, so I can only thank Master Hou for his kindness." ”

Yang Che didn't seem surprised by her answer, seeing that she was obviously rude to herself, she nodded and said, "Well, if you have something to find me, Yang will definitely do his best." ”

Tan Yin nodded, "Thank you, I've been out for a long time, I'm afraid my family will worry about it, I have to go back, and there will be a period later." ”

After saying that, she said goodbye and left, Tan Yin felt that the person behind her seemed to have been watching her, walking faster and faster, turning a mountain road, quietly turning her head to look at the past, but there was no trace, it seemed that it was an illusion just now.

Walk slowly back along the trail and don't think about it anymore.
